After clearing her throat, Xia Qingchen changed the subject: "You just said that there are rewards for spying on intelligence?"
"Yes, as for Black Emperor Ginseng, it is said that taking it in the small month position can break through to a new level, which is amazing." Yu Gugong was envious.
oh?
Xia Qingchen is aware of Black Emperor Ginseng. He took it once during his previous life practice and the effect was good.
"It's a pity that it's only for today. We knew it too late and had no chance." Yu Gugong sighed again.
Zhang Xiaofeng said nonchalantly: "Come on, I won't have a chance even if I give you time. Don't forget, there are a lot of old people from Hell Gate coming out this time."
Yu Gugong smacked his lips: "These old guys don't care about anything on weekdays, but when it is beneficial, they will do it faster than anyone else."
Xia Qingchen knew very well that the old man they were talking about should be the personnel dispatched by Linlang Island who had guarded the Hell Gate for many years.
"You should keep your voice down!" Zhang Xiaofeng looked around and lowered his voice: "If those guys know what you are talking about behind your back, it will be enough for you to drink a few bottles."
Yu Gugong also quickly lowered his voice: "Hey! What do you call this? It's obviously a fact, but no one is allowed to say it, those guys! Hey!"
Judging from the underlying meaning of their words, are these old people still scary?
"You're so afraid of them, are you?" Xia Qingchen said in surprise.
After all, this is the territory of the mainland. Yu Gugong and Zhang Xiaofeng are both citizens of the mainland. When they come to their territory, are they still afraid of the people from Linlang Island?
Zhang Xiaofeng said shamelessly: "It's not that we are afraid, it's that they have high qualifications and they give up three points to everyone."
Yu Gugong thought deeply: "You don't know. When I first came here, I didn't think they had a high status. I thought they were just people from Linlang Island. Who knew that the tombkeepers would personally receive them."
"Many important meetings require the presence of several important senior citizens."
"When Master Ye meets them, he will probably be polite to show respect."
Zhang Xiaofeng snorted: "Their attitude is very arrogant. The Huang family leader was scolded by them in public."
Xia Qingchen was startled: "Is there such a thing?"
After all, the head of the Huang family is the head of one of the four super families. Although his strength has declined over the years, he is still at the Great Moon level.
Who among the group of elderly people stationed at the garrison has the right to scold the Huang family leader, or should they do so in public?
"The news has spread all over the military camp!" Yu Gugong was annoyed when he thought of this incident: "Isn't it just because of the understanding of Hell Gate? Do we need to rely on them? What kind of violence is this?"
They have a special status not only because they have guarded the Hell Gate for a long time and have achieved great results through hard work.
It's more that they have an irreplaceable role - understanding the gates of hell.
After ten or twenty years of guarding, they all know every stone within a thousand miles of the Hell Gate. If humans want to successfully fight this war between humans and demons, they are really indispensable.
"They are upright, I've seen it before." Xia Qingchen chuckled.
No wonder that Master Yan dared to scold him in the face.
It turns out there is a precedent, even the head of the Huang family has been scolded by them.
These grandsons!
Xia Qingchen originally had respect for them, but now he understands what kind of people they are.
If it falls into his hands, it won't be so easy to get over it because of the demonic aura.
"When will the reward end?" Xia Qingchen asked.
"Before sunset tonight."
Glancing at the sky, Xia Qingchen said: "Help me hand over the things and people to the tombkeeper. I'll go do some errands first, and then I'll collect the prize later."
"What is this?" Zhang Xiaofeng looked at the ten extra parchment scrolls in his arms.
They didn't know that Xia Qingchen had been to Hell Gate, and probably no one expected him to go.
After all, he is the commander-in-chief of a party, so how could he have any reason to take personal risk?
"Don't ask, just leave it to them." Xia Qingchen left the female demon and the parchment behind and came to the Lounan military camp.
After retreating for four weeks, he immediately took out a handful of psychedelic grass and a small jade bottle. There were a few black dots the size of sesame seeds inside, which were the excrement of the Soul-eating Divine Insect that he had collected.
When the two were ready, Xia Qingchen used the sky fire and began to refine the antidote to the Shi Nao Pill.
The psychedelic grass is okay, fresh psychedelic grass is easy to smelt, but the excrement of the Soul-eating Divine Insect is not easy to smelt.
After three full hours of smelting, it was almost dark, and a few grains of feces finally burned into a ball of gray smoke.
If the smoke and dust had spirituality, it would turn into a little rabbit at one moment and a galloping wild horse at another, flowing back and forth on Xia Qingchen's chest.
Then, Xia Qingchen took a piece of psychedelic grass, crushed it, and a drop of pitch-black juice dripped from it into the gray mist.
The gray mist was immediately absorbed by the black juice, and as if it had found a vent, it entered the droplets one after another.
The originally black droplet continued to grow and solidify, and when it fell to the ground, it became a gel-like projectile about the size of a little finger.
The black and gray textures on its surface are neatly arranged, emitting a slight fishy smell.
It is very inconspicuous, and it is the antidote to Shi Nao Pill.
"Where is the Moon Pearl?" Xia Qingchen asked.
Fang Cuihong hesitated and said, "Replying to your lord, Miss Yue has already left."
What?
Xia Qingchen opened the curtain, and her already silent heart suddenly tightened: "When did it happen?"
"You just entered the Hell Gate not long ago." Fang Cuihong lowered her head: "I'm sorry, I couldn't keep her."
Xia Qingchen was lost for a moment.
It has been less than half a month since the outbreak of Shi Nao Pill, and the suppressive effect of the wine given by Nanyuan Fenghou should have dissipated quickly. If it is not released in time, Yue Mingzhu will be in danger.
"I have neglected my duty, please punish me." Fang Cuihong said with shame.
Xia Qingchen waved her hand: "If she wants to leave, no one can keep her."
Yue Mingzhu has a decisive personality. Once she makes a decision, she won't change it easily.
But why did she leave?
She knew clearly that he would venture into the Hell Gate to pick psychedelic grass. With her rationality, she would not leave. In that case, Xia Qingchen's risk would be in vain.
"Did anything happen?" Xia Qingchen asked keenly.
Fang Cuihong shook her head: "Nothing major happened."
There may not be any big things, but Yue Mingzhu is at a sensitive moment, and maybe even a small thing may cause her to run away.
"Notify me and search immediately!" Xia Qingchen said.
After she retreated, Xia Qingchen said again: "Come out!"
The giant monster appeared like a ghost: "What are your instructions, Master?"
Xia Qingchen said: "Do you know why?"
When he went to the gate of hell, the giant monster was in the military camp. It might have noticed something.
The giant monster said thoughtfully: "I don't know, that little human girl was indeed walking in a hurry, but before she left, I seemed to have vaguely felt an evil aura coming."
Who forced Yue Mingzhu to leave?
Xia Qingchen's heart trembled: "Send orders to the Snow Tower, mobilize all your strength, and search for the whereabouts of the Moon Pearl. Be quick!"
"What about you? You don't need anyone to protect you anymore?" If the giant monster leaves, there will be no one to protect Xia Qingchen.
"No, it's safe here for now."
"Okay, take care, Master."
Xia Qingchen sighed again and again, why did Yue Mingzhu leave?
