Chapter 605: This shopkeeper’s baby wants to drink
"Bring over that bowl of ginseng soup, my dear shopkeeper wants to drink it!" Seeing Mei Ji coming in, Yao Mowan seemed to call out unintentionally. Mei Ji was not an ordinary person. When she saw the hamster in Yao Mowan's hand, she
Suddenly, he stopped moving forward and looked at Yao Mowan awkwardly.
"Shopkeeper, this ginseng soup... is specially prepared for you by the kitchen, how can you give it to the hamster?" Mei Ji deliberately held it and refused to move forward.
"Since the kitchen prepared it for me, then bring it here!" Yao Mowan urged, Mei Ji choked slightly, and her eyes seemed to glance at Huan Luo unintentionally, and Huan Luo's eyes suddenly turned sharp.
She knew something was wrong, but she remained calm. Seeing that Huan Luo didn't respond, Mei Ji had to bite the bullet and bring the ginseng soup over.
"Little hamster, you are in for a treat. Most people can't afford this stuff!" As Yao Mowan spoke, she scooped a spoonful of ginseng soup and poured it into the wooden trough in the iron cage. The little hamster drank it.
Seemingly understanding Yao Mowan's words, she immediately started drinking.
"Master, what a waste!" Seeing the little hamster drinking with gusto, Diao Diao couldn't help but shake his head.
But the next second after Diao Diao fell silent, the hamster suddenly stopped, then squeaked and screamed, and finally its belly turned white and curled up. The whole process only took a few seconds, and they didn't even feel the hamster's movements.
Pain, it has returned to the west!
In the silent main hall, everyone was shocked. Yao Mowan was especially furious and suddenly started to slap the case.
"Mei Ji! What's going on?" Yao Mowan looked at Mei Ji angrily, her expression as cold as ice.
"This... Mei Ji doesn't know! Mei Ji really doesn't know!" In fact, there was really nothing in the ginseng soup. The 'life-killing powder' that Mei Ji gave to Yao Mowan had already been smeared by Yao Mowan.
Arriving at the wooden trough of the iron cage.
"I don't know? Mei Ji, you are so bold! If you were innocent, you would drink all the remaining ginseng soup!" The person who spoke was not Yao Mowan, but Huan Luo.
Seeing Huan Luo like this, Mei Ji felt a chill in her heart. If she hadn't bet this game on Yao Mowan, the result could be imagined.
"Mei Ji really didn't tamper with the ginseng soup. Please give me a clear warning from the Holy Lady!" Mei Ji fell to her knees on the ground, tears falling from her eyes.
"If not, why don't you dare?" Huan Luo was aggressive and her eyes were sharp. Mei Ji knew that Huan Luo wanted to kill her and silence her. It would be in vain to continue arguing this time, so Mei Ji stood up silently and walked towards Yao Mowan. She put her
All bets are placed on Yao Mowan.
Just when Mei Ji wanted to take the ginseng soup, Yao Mowan picked up the ginseng soup first and threw it to the ground with a bang.
"Mei Ji, although I believe this was not done by you, from now on, you don't need to interfere with the meals at Juxian Tower, including the water for making tea!" Yao Mowan's actions shocked everyone present.
Everyone was very surprised. Especially Leng Bingxin, who was really worried about Mei Ji. After all, they still had feelings for each other during the time they were together in Yan Chi Country.
"Shopkeeper, I think Bing Xin, if Mei Ji didn't do this, then the real culprit must want Mei Ji to die, so he could borrow a knife to kill someone!" Leng Bingxin's words were directed at Huan Luo. As a close disciple of Ghost Daozi, she
There's really no need to be too polite to Huan Luo.
"Ghost sister! What do you want to say!" Huan Luo naturally heard Leng Bingxin's meaning and stood up angrily, her beautiful eyes like frost.
"You can say whatever you want! Huanluo, don't think that we are all blind. We all see how Ping### looks down on the shopkeeper, but this time, you went too far! You dare to attack
The shopkeeper poisoned you! We are both saints, and you seem to be trying to kill each other by doing this. I wonder how the mage will react when he finds out about this!" Leng Bingxin was not afraid of her, and immediately stood up to argue.
"Canglan, you know me, this kind of dirty thing is something that I don't even bother to do!" Huanluo looked at Qi Canglan with a guilty conscience, but she saw that Qi Canglan's face was as dark as water, and his eyes were as cold as ice, and his heart suddenly dropped.
Some confidence.
Just when the situation was at a stalemate, Yao Mowan slammed the table again.
"The murderer may not be one of ours, maybe it's Chu Mobei and the others. I hope this matter ends here. We just have to be careful in the future! As for Mei Ji, I have just made a decision.
Come on, sit back and eat!" Seeing that Yao Mowan didn't pursue the matter, Leng Bingxin simply glared at Huan Luo, then picked up the chopsticks as if nothing had happened. After the whole meal, everyone was not satisfied with the food.
On the first day of the full moon, the night is misty, the night wind blows, and the candlelight on the table flickers, sometimes dark and sometimes bright.
"I knew the big sacrifice was coming, the tea is ready!" When the breeze blew across my face, a white figure came in the wind, followed by a faint fragrance.
"Do you suspect that the person who poisoned you is Huanluo?" Qi Canglan's voice always contains a sense of vicissitudes and depth, as if it has been accumulated by thousands of years of wind and frost, leaving only a sigh.
"It's not doubt, it's affirmation." Yao Mowan said it calmly, as if she was saying that tonight's food was not bad, so calm that Qi Canglan was a little surprised.
"Where's the evidence?" Even though Qi Canglan had this thought in his heart, he hoped that his guess was wrong.
"The high priest really wants Wan'er to find evidence?" Qi Canglan's curly eyelashes were slightly raised, and his eyes were shining like stars, making Qi Canglan's heart tremble.
"This priest promises that there will never be another time." Qi Canglan acquiesced to his guess. No one except Huan Luo dared to do this.
"Well, the high priest has a very friendly relationship with Saint Huanluo, which is really enviable." Yao Mowan deliberately met Qi Canglan's gaze, and the ambiguous feelings made Qi Canglan's heart become more and more restless.
"This priest only regards Huan Luo as my younger sister. We have grown up together since childhood. The relationship between brother and sister is indispensable, but I will not condone her misbehavior." Qi Canglan's anxious defense made Yao Mowan very satisfied.
Having such an inexplicable relationship with Qi Canglan has no harm at all for her.
"It's just my sister... the fabric is nice, thank you!" Yao Mowan pretended to be relieved and brushed the props that had been prepared by the table, with a bright smile on her lips.
In the deep alley, Huan Luo's beautiful eyes stared at Mei Ji, wishing she could tear her into pieces.
"Useless thing, who asked you to do it today!" Mei Ji's temper was unreasonable. Just this afternoon, she was still urging Mei Ji.
"Holy girl, please calm down. Mei Ji didn't expect Yao Mowan to buy a hamster. This was an accident." With Leng Bingxin's words, Mei Ji was sure that Huan Luo would not kill her easily, but she would inevitably suffer some hardships.
.
Sure enough, just as Mei Ji was explaining in a low voice, a gust of wind from her palm struck her, and Mei Ji suddenly felt a tight pain in her chest, as if it was being burned by fire.
"Accident? You just said it was an accident and let it go? Yao Mowan is already on guard. It will be difficult to deal with her in the future!" Huan Luo looked at Mei Ji angrily.
"If the saint believes in Mei Ji, Mei Ji is willing to try again." Mei Ji knew that Huan Luo could not be offended, so she pretended to please.
"Try again? Are you deaf? She won't let you touch the food anymore, not even the water! If you touch it again, wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap! If you don't succeed enough, you will fail more than you can!" Huan Luo growled bitterly and casually committed suicide.
A pill popped out of her sleeve and went into Mei Ji's mouth.
"This is this?" Mei Ji looked at Huan Luo in astonishment.
"This is the antidote. If they find out that there is poison in your body, things will be serious." Although Huan Luo was reluctant, for safety reasons, she had to detoxify Mei Ji's body.
"Mei Ji, thank you, Lady Saint!" This was something Mei Ji didn't expect, and it was considered an extra gain.
"Remember, even if there is no poison restriction, if you dare to betray this saint, I will still find ways to make you unable to survive or die!" Seeing the joy in Mei Ji's eyes, Huan Luo scolded her coldly.
"Mei Ji doesn't dare. Mei Ji will definitely take the guidance of the Saint." Mei Ji realized that she was a little happy and immediately suppressed all the emotions in her eyes.
The next day, everything was as usual in Juxian Tower, as if nothing had happened last night. Yao Mowan had arranged everything, and took the opportunity to buy fabrics for Diao Diao to go to Taiping Bank. In the back hall, Chu Mobei also waited for a long time.
.
"Did the Holy Shopkeeper bring good news to this prince?" After receiving the secret note from Yao Mowan, Chu Mobei was a little excited. If Yao Mowan could bring reliable news, it would undoubtedly make Ye Jun clear about this trip.
A little less dangerous.
"His Royal Highness, do you still need any news from me?" Yao Mowan raised her lips in a slanted arc and looked at Chu Mobei with cold eyes.
"What does the Holy Shopkeeper mean by this?" Chu Mobei asked curiously, not knowing why.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince and Ye Junqing must have gotten the news, right? Tell it and listen." Yao Mowan sat down opposite Chu Mobei and got straight to the point. Yesterday at Kangle Restaurant, Ye Junqing's raised eyebrows made her feel...
After some speculation and a night of thinking, Yao Mowan was sure that Ye Junqing would take action in the near future.
"Shopkeeper Sheng didn't say it himself. We have no other way except you. What's going on today? Not confident?" Chu Mobei couldn't figure out Yao Mowan's trump card, so he tried his best around the words.
"Your Highness, it's okay not to say anything, but you will be responsible for the consequences!" Yao Mowan heard Chu Mobei's temptation and simply put it aside to survive.
Seeing Yao Mowan getting up and about to leave, Chu Mobei couldn't help but sigh. The woman in front of him used this trick to scare him every time, but he was really afraid of it.
"Don't worry, Holy Shopkeeper. I have indeed received some news. I wonder if Holy Shopkeeper has heard of Zi Hai?" Chu Mobei intuitively believed that this Sheng Wan'er was somewhat trustworthy.
"Zihai? Never heard of it." Yao Mowan shook his head.
"That's strange. The so-called Purple Sea is the sea area near Loulan Liangyuan. Now there is news that King Xia and King Qi may be in that sea area." Chu Mobei revealed a little bit to observe Yao Mo.
Wan's reaction.
"Liang Yuan... that was the first place Wan'er entered Dongzhou for the first time... Zihai..." Yao Mowan frowned slightly. When she left Yanchi Country, she was covered with black gauze, so she
She didn't know the route from Yanchi Country to Loulan Country, but one thing she was sure of was that Yanchi Country was surrounded by the sea.
Seeing Yao Mowan's solemn expression, Chu Mobei believed that Yao Mowan really didn't know where Zihai was.
"It seems that they are also on guard against Shopkeeper Sheng." Yao Mowan's reaction made Chu Mobei feel confident. From this point of view, the person in front of him was not on the same side as Qi Canglan and the others. In all likelihood, he was threatened.
In this case, he might be able to believe what the Holy Master said.
"I've said it before, His Highness the Crown Prince just doesn't believe it. If... this shopkeeper is right, does Ye Junqing have any intention of going to Zihai?" Yao Mowan's heart sank slightly, and she looked at Chu Mobei suspiciously,
"The Holy Treasurer guessed it right, King Chu will leave for Liangyuan County tomorrow." Chu Mobei told the truth.
"Isn't that too reckless? If we really encounter a strong enemy, how can King Chu survive!" Yao Mowan frowned and spoke with a hint of complaint in her voice. How could he not cherish his own life so much!
"I don't think so. Since it has been confirmed that the mysterious force is in Zihai, we should take the first step. Should we sit back and wait for death?" Chu Mobei thought.
