"So you brought this bird back?" Qin Feng asked, pointing to the ugly bird Wei Xi placed on the Kang table.

Seeing Wei Xi nodding, Qin Feng had a rare headache.

Qin Feng got up from the warm bed and was about to go out to meditate. Before he could get dressed, he saw Wei Xi opening the door curtain with a dark face embroidered with a magpie climbing a branch.

Wei Xi described this morning's experience to her: Brother Wei stole medicine, Brother Wei caught birds, and Brother Wei dug out spiritual stones. The bird she placed on the Kang table ate its brother and then pestered Wei Xi to scream non-stop. She could only bring the dirty bird back wrapped in a handful of leaves.

"Why did you bring it back? This thing looks a bit evil."

Qin Feng poked it with his finger, and the little beast pretended to be innocent and fell back.

Wei Xi took out the spiritual stone from his lapel and placed it on the table. Qin Feng understood and gave a respectful thumbs up.

The general mouse catcher came over and sniffed the orchids that were lying around. Wei Xi used his hand to stop them.

The general mouse catcher didn't even catch a single mouse, and she didn't know what Qin Feng fed the cat behind her back. It just refused to catch mice, and the meat didn't even fall to the ground. Fortunately, the snowstorm effectively controlled the Qingcheng faction mice. The quantity, otherwise Wei Xike would not be able to fool him anymore.

Someone probably fed it, and the Rat Catcher lost interest in it after sniffing it twice.

Qin Feng felt sorry for Maomao and quickly brought the general over.

"You bring this thing back and raise it so that the cat can eat it when it gets bigger, or else send it to the Bird Department and let those annoying people keep it?"

Wei Xi sneered. Even if her temper got worse, she would never try to please those annoying people in the Bird Division. Besides, she might be able to sell this thing to Wei An.

The little beast struggled to stand up and rubbed Wei Xi's forearm flatteringly. Wei Xi moved his arm away in disgust.

"This thing probably thinks of you as its mother," Qin Feng put the Rat Catcher General on the ground. The cat shook its fur twice and then trotted to nest next to the brazier. "The first one I saw when I broke the shell was you."

After Qin Feng went out to meditate, Wei Xi took some cotton that Qin Feng gave the general to use to build a nest, built a small bird's nest around it, and poured some water for it with a saucer.

Since it had eaten the shells of two eggs of its brother who was slightly larger than itself, Wei Xi estimated that it would be hungry for a while, so he took off his clothes and got into bed.

After the snow radish was harvested, the senior sister of Wei Shuangdian told Wei Xi that Master Chu's mission was over.

After taking the reward and ending his watering life in the pine forest, Wei Xi transferred to Yixiang Pavilion, found the senior brother in charge of purchasing, and got the plants of the elixir he bought.

During the shift, Wei Xi finished reading the books on herbal medicine that she found. While passing the time, she thought that since the snow radish was used to catch orchids, Master Chu Xian probably wouldn't do it either. I will always hire her to take care of the little snow radish.

So Wei Xi was concerned about the half-acre medicinal field in the pine forest. She found several elixirs with similar conditions in the book. After comprehensively considering the spiritual stones, sales, and difficulty, she chose this elixir under the forest. .

The understory is a fire-attribute elixir, but this medicine needs to be tempered by severe cold. The growth cycle is three months. According to the climate in northern Xinjiang, winter at the height of Yizhangyuan can last for about three and a half months, which is just right for harvesting. once.

This elixir is affordable among low-level elixirs because it is an important material used to make protective elixirs.

Wei Xi had been busy for two months, and besides spending money, he still had two high-grade spiritual stones, five medium-grade spiritual stones, and two low-grade spiritual stones.

The seedlings in the forest were not cheap, so Wei Xi kept a medium-grade spiritual stone and bought the rest sixteen seedlings in the forest. The senior brother gave Wei the small half bag of snow radish seeds given by the boss who bought the seeds. West.

Wei Xi thanked her senior brother and returned to the dormitory holding the seedlings, seeds and a bag of cakes wrapped in oil paper that her senior kitchen brother had given her.

Before Wei Xi's butt was warm from sitting, she heard someone in the yard yelling angrily, "Who the hell is raising this cat?"

Knowing something was wrong, Wei Xi hesitated, but the rat-catching general's cry was so sharp.

Wei Xi cursed in his heart and rushed out.

Standing in the yard was an angry young man. He was quite delicate, tall, somewhat malnourished, and had two dark circles under his eyes.

He held up the Rat Catcher and when he saw Wei Xi coming out, he shouted at Wei Xi, "Did you raise this cat?"

Even though he didn't want to admit it, Wei Xi could only nod.

The young man rushed over and said, "Your cat! It ate all my fish, my fish!"

Wei Xi took out her cowhide scroll and started writing. The young man was angered by her actions.

Wei Xi knew that what the young man said was true. After all, the rat-catching general still had fish scales on his beard. She first apologized to the young man, and then asked the rat-catching general what kind of fish he had eaten, and she could compensate for it.

I hope that the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect will not raise any ridiculously expensive spiritual fish. This is Wei Xi's only thought.

The young man was full of anger, and he thought that the owner of this fish-stealing cat was also a very unruly person. Unexpectedly, he had a good attitude towards admitting his mistake. The anger was not released for a while, and the momentum was gone.

When he realized that this junior sister seemed speechless, he didn't know what to do.

"No, this cat has been eating my fish intermittently for a long time, and all my nursery ponds have been emptied by it."

After hearing this, Wei Xi's heart began to feel cold, and her face immediately started to burn. Seeing her like this, the young man threw the cat to the ground, and the rat-catching general rushed back into the house as soon as it landed.

"You don't have to worry. I cultivated these fish myself. I didn't mean to look like this on purpose. Just give them to me according to the cost. By the way, my name is Chen Shuangli. I am a fish breeder. They are all ornamental spiritual fish."

Chen Shuangli didn't like to conflict with others. He studied fish farming every day, otherwise he wouldn't have known that one of the new disciples was Wei Xi, a junior sister with mute disease.

Wei Xi sheepishly told him that he would take good care of his cat from now on, and asked how much compensation he would have to pay.

Chen Shuangli looked distressed, "The fry are not expensive, but I spent a lot of thought on them." Chen Shuangli looked at Wei Xi's red face and hesitated, "You can buy a pond of fish for three yuan with me." Let’s taste the spirit stone.”

Fortunately, it was not particularly expensive. Although it was Wei Xi's remuneration for working for Master Chu Xian for a month, the matter had come to this point. His cat had eaten someone else's fish and he should pay compensation.

Wei Xi blushed and wrote to Chen Shuangli, and the handwriting floating in the air almost started to fly.

"You don't have that much on hand?" Chen Shuangli confirmed with Wei Xi after reading it. Wei Xi quickly went on to write that he would return the spirit stone before spring.

Chen Shuangli himself was very poor, so how could he expect a junior sister who had just climbed up the mountain to compensate him with spiritual stones.

"Then return the spirit stone to me before spring begins." Chen Shuangli is a careless fool, and he doesn't bother much when things are explained to him.

"It's just that you must take good care of your own cat and don't come to eat my fish again." Chen Shuangli specifically told Wei Xi before leaving.

After seeing off another legendary senior brother in the sect, Wei Xi rolled up his sleeves with a cold face and walked into the house.
