Qiao Baishi calmed down, then pushed the door open and walked in. What hit his face was a refreshing fragrance. It made people feel like they had entered a boudoir by mistake.
Looking up, the whole room is arranged in an orderly manner, just like the boudoir of a young lady who has not yet left the palace. It is rich and luxurious, but also has a bit of cuteness and cuteness of a little daughter's house.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard for Qiao Baishi to believe that this was the room of a middle-aged female elder.
"Qiao Baishi? Hehe, am I a little ignorant recently? Our Tiangui Kingdom has another young talent in the field of elixirs?"
Qiao Baishi is in his thirties, and it is not too much to be rated as a young talent.
Qiao Baishi cupped his hand and said with a smile: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it. But Elder Ning, the country is beautiful and fragrant, and has the reputation of immortality in the Tiangui Kingdom. Although Qiao has always lived in the Eastern Kingdom, he has been admired for a long time."
The so-called "myth of immortality" is naturally flattering.
But these four words of flattery have created tricks, new ideas, and differences in the filming.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Elder Ning was really happy, and a spring-like smile bloomed on his face that was indistinguishable from his age.
"The myth of immortality? Who said this? How come I have never heard of it?" Elder Ning's exquisite and beautiful eyes stirred up, and his eyes with natural charm fluctuated, as if they were about to drip water at any time.
"Huh? Elder Ning hasn't heard of it? It's no wonder. Elder, you are an expert. You are indifferent to fame and wealth, and have a detached mentality. You no longer care about the slander and praise from the outside world."
Another round of flattery came over, and the smile on Elder Ning's face became even more unconcealed.
"Giggle, giggle..." Elder Ning laughed, "Qiao Baishi, right? You are such an interesting person. Did you just say that you are from the Eastern Kingdom?"
"Yes."
"The Eastern Kingdom is far away from here, how come you came to the Tiangui Kingdom?"
"If you say that I came here because of your reputation, the elder will not believe it, right? You may not know that in the aristocratic circles of our Eastern Kingdom, there are secretly portraits of you, Elder Ning. In the aristocratic circles, your sketches are collected.
I am proud of the portrait. Although I want to collect it, I have no choice but to be short of money. I am unable to compete with those big nobles, and I feel really regretful. However, I can be personally received by you, the elder, this time. This will be something to brag about after I return.
"
When Qiao Baishi said this, he scratched his head in a very "honest" manner and giggled.
It has to be said that the most distasteful thing for women is lies from men. And Qiao Baishi's lies were even more true than the truth, and it was even more difficult for Elder Ning not to believe them.
Elder Ning loves beauty by nature and is extremely narcissistic. In addition, she does have good looks and is good at dressing up. At the age of forty, she does look the same as she is in her twenties.
This is something she has always been proud of.
Originally, he wanted to keep a straight face and see what the outsider's purpose was. Unexpectedly, being teased by Qiao Baishi, Elder Ning laughed so hard that he couldn't be reserved even if he wanted to.
He tried hard to suppress his smile and patted his chest: "Okay, Qiao Baishi, this elder admits that I have begun to appreciate you a little. You said you came here for the Wishing Tower?"
"Yes." Qiao Baishi did not deny it at all, "I came here to fulfill Elder Ning's wish."
"What?" Elder Ning became even more unreserved. He stood up and walked towards Qiao Baishi with his bare feet, "Can you fulfill my wish? Do you know what wish I made?"
"I know you want to stay young forever and maintain your ageless appearance for the next thirty years."
"You...you really have a way?" Elder Ning's eyes were wide open, his beautiful eyes were full of passionate anticipation, and he looked worried about gains and losses, as if he was afraid that Qiao Baishi would give a negative answer.
"If there is no other way, how can I dare to come?" Qiao Baishi said with a smile.
"But why me?"
Qiao Baishi waved his hand: "There are not so many reasons. We have a saying in the Eastern Kingdom that women are responsible for being as beautiful as flowers, and men are responsible for making money and supporting the family. Women are born for beauty, and the pursuit of beauty is a woman's nature and a woman's responsibility. And
Men should do everything they can to protect a woman’s beauty. This is a man’s bounden duty.”
"I hate it." Elder Ning had never heard such fresh remarks. His heart was filled with joy, and he was also full of curiosity about Qiao Baishi, but his mouth was full of feigned anger, "You are not allowed to talk nonsense. What you are talking about seems to be us.
They look like a couple."
"Hey, I made a mistake. However, being able to fulfill Elder Ning's wish is the greatest wish of any man in the world, right?"
Elder Ning was so amused by these words that he completely ignored the image of a lady and was so happy that he almost danced.
"Well, Qiao Baishi, this elder has discovered that I appreciate you more and more. This elder has decided that regardless of whether you can help me realize that wish, I will hire you as my assistant. Moreover, this elder will try his best to help you.
Solve the problem of the identity of a fifth-grade nobleman. You are simply too interesting."
On the wish scroll, Elder Ning’s promise was to resolve the identity of a sixth-grade noble and hire him as a follower.
But now, it comes out of her mouth. The attendant has become an assistant, and the status of a sixth-grade noble has been upgraded to a fifth-grade noble. It can be seen how happy Elder Ning is being coaxed by Qiao Baishi at this moment.
Qiao Baishi took advantage of the opportunity and sighed: "Elder Ning, to be honest, this matter was 100% successful. However, one of my partners had an accident. Now, I have a piece of paper on hand.
The prescription for Zhuyan Dan is called Four Seasons Evergreen Dan, but it lacks the last ingredient."
"What accident?" Elder Ning panicked after hearing this.
"It's like this. This prescription is a little adventure that a friend of mine got. He gave the prescription to me, but he didn't give it to me when I got the medicine. He had to wait for me to collect all the money.
Give me the medicine guide
"Money is not an issue, how much does he offer?" Elder Ning is not short of money at all.
"I have collected the money, but something happened to him. Moreover, this accident seems to be very difficult." Qiao Baishi said somewhat depressedly.
He made such a roundabout twist, in fact, he deliberately wanted to make Elder Ning's heart twitch, make her curious, and make her feel itchy, so she took the initiative to ask.
"What kind of accident is it?" Elder Ning asked anxiously, "I have many connections in the Tiangui Kingdom. Is there any problem that I can't solve with Lan Nangong?"
"He killed someone."
"Why don't you just beat someone to death? How big of a deal is this? I immediately sent someone to bring him out. It was the Dragon Tooth Guard who locked him up, right?" Elder Ning was very happy.
"The one he killed was a robber."
"Robbers? When did it become illegal to kill robbers? Will this Dragon Tooth Guard still handle cases?"
"The main reason is that the robber he killed had a great background." Qiao Baishi continued to induce.
"It's a big one? How big is it? Can it be bigger than me, the elder of Qianlan Nangong?" Elder Ning snorted, a little unhappy.
Qiao Baishi sighed: "To be honest, the person he killed this time was a disciple of Qianlan Beigong."
"Qianlan Beigong?" Elder Ning exclaimed softly, and then nodded with deep understanding, "If you say that, I really believe it. Qianlan Beigong has always been a living bandit and a vicious bandit."
"Sigh. I heard that Qianlan Beigong put a lot of pressure on Longya Guard. They must turn this legitimate defense into an ironclad case of killing people on the street. And they seem to have said harsh words. No matter who comes forward, no matter who is involved, No matter how much dignity you have, don’t even think about competing with Qianlan Beigong."
"What a loud tone." Elder Ning had been knocked unconscious by Qiao Baishi's ecstasy soup just now. Who would have thought that Qiao Baishi's words were actually inducing her or even provoking her anger.
"This elder really doesn't believe it. This is still the domain of the Ye family and the territory of the Tiangui Kingdom. It's okay for Qianlan Beigong to be arrogant in the west of the kingdom. In the royal capital, do they also want to cover the sky with one hand?"
"Qiao Baishi, I'll write you a note. You can hand it over to the Dragon Tooth Guard and let them handle the case impartially."
Elder Ning is a powerful elder in Qianlan Nangong. He has a high and powerful position. His status is only slightly inferior to that of a few people. He has a great say in Qianlan Nangong. In Tiangui Kingdom, he can also be regarded as a big shot. .
Her notes are no less important than those of the powerful men of the day.
Qiao Baishi was overjoyed when he heard this: "If there is a note written by the elder himself, then the matter will be easy to handle. This is the elixir I got. I will show it to the elder first. Once my friend is released, this elixir will be added with an introduction." Together, the four-season evergreen elixir that regulates the appearance and powers the gods will come to life."
Elder Ning happily took the prescription, and his impression of Qiao Baishi was even higher. He thought that Qiao Baishi was indeed sensible and did not hide it. I never expected that a person from a small place like the Eastern Kingdom would The man is actually more dignified than the men in Tiangui Kingdom.
Royal Capital, Duobao Dojo.
There are two powerful figures in Duobao Dojo, one is the sect leader Zhuge Yan, and the other is the deputy sect leader Shi Xiaoyao.
At this moment, the deputy sect master Shi Xiaoyao is in his yard, leisurely sipping wine.
This time of every day is the time for him to enjoy fine wine. He has maintained this habit for decades and cannot shake it. Even if the sky falls, he still has to drink this wine.
Until he finished the last glass of wine, put down the cup, smacked his tongue, and sighed: "Wine is good wine. I have to get it. Unfortunately, although there are many fine wines in the world, they only taste good after all. What can truly make you feel beautiful in your heart." Go, wine that is so beautiful that it touches the soul is really rare. It’s a pity, it’s a pity... When can I take another sip of Jiuhua Jade Dew Wine?"
Deputy Sect Leader Shi let out a belch because of the ointment. This kind of life was the most comfortable and enjoyable for him.
Seeing that he had finally finished drinking the wine, a follower approached cautiously: "Sir, there is a disciple of Duobao Dojo outside, said his name is Feng Yan, and he wants to see you. I heard that you are tasting wine inside, and you have already I’ve been waiting for less than half an hour.”
"Feng Yan?" Deputy Sect Master Shi squinted his eyes, vaguely remembering that there was such a disciple in Duobao Dojo.
However, there are thousands of such disciples in Duobao Dojo, and Shi Xiaoyao only remembers such a name.
"What? Do you think that I have a lot of time? Even an ordinary disciple can come to see me at any time?" Shi Xiaoyao's temper is much more aloof and arrogant than Elder Ning.
"No... I don't dare. My subordinate originally hinted to him that because of his status, he is not qualified to directly ask to see you. However, no matter what, the guy just refuses to leave. He seems to be quite anxious."
"When did our Duobao Dojo have such disciples who didn't understand the rules?" Shi Xiaoyao's face darkened and he became unhappy.
"He said that he took the liberty of asking for a meeting because of the matter about the Wishing Tower." The follower could only tell the truth.
"What? Wish Tower?" Shi Xiaoyao, who was still half-dead, suddenly seemed to be resurrected with full blood, and his body jumped up like a spring, "Where is the other person? Quick, let him in. What are you doing to eat, such a big one?
