Chapter 103 A new journey
Hundreds of miles away from Shui Sheng, in a secluded courtyard south of the quiet town, Cheng Lingsu was carefully tidying up Chu Zheng's clothes.
There are only a few elegant wooden houses in the courtyard, but there is a very large yard, surrounded by one-person-high bamboo fences, covered with green vines, there is a big locust tree in the courtyard, and several small vegetable fields have been cultivated. The green small vegetable seedlings are very cute.
When looking for a house in Ningjing Town, Chu Zheng fell in love with the courtyard at a glance. Regardless of Cheng Lingsu's repeated "don't spend money" persuasion, he spent thirty taels of silver to buy the courtyard after a simple bargaining.
Thirty taels of silver can be considered a huge sum of money in this small town. The original owner moved away happily, and almost nothing was taken away, saving Chu Zheng the trouble of re-built.
Chu Zheng bought two more little maids to help clean up the house and take care of Cheng Lingsu.
He used to work as a pile of unused spoils in the pawn shop in Ningjing Town. Now, it is not counted as the money deposited into the money house. He only brought thirty ingots of gold ingots on him, and even brought thousands of taels of silver notes and a pile of small pieces of silver. He can be regarded as a rich man among the players.
You should know that he has never recharged money, and he relied on his ability to cheat and cheat and robbed him from other players and NPCs... Ahem, what he earned is, after all, some of the rewards for completing tasks.
So it is worth it to spend only thirty taels of silver (reduced into real currency only thirty yuan) to exchange for Cheng Lingsu's good mood. He did not ignore the joy that flashed in Cheng Lingsu's eyes when he saw this courtyard.
Chu Zheng also placed two pots of camellia in front of the yard. This was the secret code agreed with Di Yun at the beginning, so that he could come and visit him.
After settling down Cheng Lingsu, Chu Zheng planned to go out.
After all, Qin Ruyun only gave a mere month (game time) before leaving, and she had to complete that unique task with her when it expired.
"There are various poisons and pills I have developed here, and two sets of changing clothes." Cheng Lingsu handed Chu Zheng the bag containing a large pile of medicine bottles: "I know you have high martial arts skills and good methods, but the world is dangerous, so be careful."
Chu Zheng felt warmth in his heart as he listened to her careful advice. This was a feeling, just like the nagging of his mother and sister when he was about to leave home in the Hidden Martial Arts World.
Thinking of his mother and sister who unfortunately suffered a disaster because of his fame, Chu Zheng's eyes were filled with darkness and coldness, but it quickly suppressed again. He smiled and said, "Senior Sister, you should recuperate well. I will be back in two months at the latest. Then we will plant herbs and refine pills here, and we will never go to the muddy waters of the world again."
He was not worried about Cheng Lingsu's safety. The closed disciple of the Dignified Pharmacy King, even though his martial arts have not yet been restored, relying on the newly planted flowers and plants with tender leaves in the yard and the few pots of small flowers placed in the house, is enough to make most people in the martial arts world fight.
"Yeah." Cheng Lingsu nodded and suddenly asked, "Miss Rain, do you really not plan to go find your senior sister with you?"
"She? She is very busy, so she has no time to pay attention to me." Chu Zheng couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly when he remembered what had happened before.
A few days ago, when Qin Ruyun returned to Xue Valley for the last time, Chu Zheng was afraid that Cheng Lingsu would be weak after being sick, so he strongly asked the two to sit on Baihe together. Fortunately, Cheng Lingsu was extremely light in weight, so Baihe could afford it.
Chu Zheng asked Qin Ruyun to send them to Ningjing Town directly with Baihe, which gave Miss Qin Er's big eyes. However, Miss Qin Er did not refuse after all when she saw Cheng Lingsu was so thin.
However, when Miss Qin Er saw that he was carefully holding Cheng Lingsu and putting on her cloak robe, she didn't say a word during the flight, and when she arrived at the entrance of Ningjing Town, she said coldly, "I'll give you a month. If I don't come to me to complete the task, I won't use it." Then she rode away on the white crane.
Judging from the bad mood and attitude of Miss Qin Er, it was impossible to expect her to help find Guo Xiang. Moreover, Chu Zheng was really not used to acting with such a brilliant white and rich beauty. The attracted gaze made him feel uncomfortable all over.
If it weren't for the only task that could get the magic pill to extend Cheng Lingsu's life, he wouldn't have joined in the fun.
Chu Zheng calmed down, called two little maids, told them to take good care of Miss Cheng, and then jumped onto a thin horse he bought in the town and rode away.
After running a single horse for hundreds of meters, Chu Zheng always felt that something was missing. When he looked back, he remembered the sound of horse hooves following Cheng Lingsu was missing.
Habits are terrible.
Chu Zheng shook his head, and suddenly, like telepathy, subconsciously turned back to the small yard in the distance, and saw Cheng Lingsu still standing in front of the yard, quietly looking at his far away back.
Chu Zheng felt warm in his heart, waved his hand and said goodbye again, then he raised his whip and embarked on a new journey.
...
After leaving the town, Chu Zheng planned to rush back to Fugui Villa first to ask about the situation. Maybe Guo Xiang happened to return to Fugui Villa.
"The desserts in the store last time are good, go and buy more for me." In the white light, Dongfang Bai appeared in front of Chu Zheng's saddle with a swagger and ordered without hesitation.
mmmp, who subdued whom?
"Don't stick so close." Chu Zheng pushed her away from him and gave her a thrilling head: "If you want to have some snacks, be honest, call the master."
Dongfang Bai covered his head and turned around and glared at him unhappily.
Chu Zheng took out a thousand-layer cake and shook it in front of her eyes. Dongfang Bai immediately subconsciously licked his thin red lips, struggled for a second, and then simply shouted: "Master."
That's right. Look at Qin Ruyun's Baihe is so obedient and hardworking. She doesn't look like you. Even the owner of the caller has to use delicious food to lure him.
Chu Zheng handed her the snacks, then ran to the east of the town to buy a big bag of snacks and put them away, and then started rushing.
Dongfang Bai's recognition has increased to 20, and his obedience has also been slightly higher. In the past, it is almost impossible for her to call her master.
But what made Chu Zheng a little unhappy was that this guy always ran out by himself after getting familiar with him. What if he had no time to summon him when he needed help?
Fortunately, as the recognition becomes a positive number, Dongfangbai's summonable time begins to increase significantly. After increasing from 5 to 20, the summonable number becomes three times, each time can be summoned for half an hour.
Maybe after the recognition level is increased to 100, you can summon Dongfang Bai by your side for a long time, so you can truly hide behind the scenes and no longer have to show your face in person.
He rushed to Fugui Villa all the way, without Cheng Lingsu by his side, Chu Zheng simply did not enter any town, and when he was sleepy, he would just sit on the trees and rest in the grass.
Now he has the blood of red clams in his body, and snakes, insects, rats and ants hide far away when they smell him. There is no need to worry about any troubles that will happen if they sleep in the open.
After traveling day and night, Chu Zheng had already stepped into the yard of Fugui Villa three days later, and saw Wang Dong lying in the yard lazily basking in the sun.
In the familiar and comfortable scene, time seemed to stop before he left.
Chu Zheng's mouth couldn't help but curl up. It was indeed the most relaxing time he had in the game.
"Are you back?" Wang Dong didn't get up to greet him, but just smiled and threw a jar of wine.
Chu Zheng took a breath and drank it all, then wiped his mouth and said, "Boss Wang, Fugui Villa has made a fortune recently? Can you afford to buy wine?"
"Thank Lin Taiping's blessing." Wang Dong pointed lazily in the distance, and Chu Zheng saw a flower girl with a shy blush on her face, lowering her head and talking with Lin Taiping.
There is also a basket of flowers at your feet, and you can vaguely see food and a jar of wine.
