Chapter 55 Money Tree
Chapter 55 Money Tree
"Okay, I understand!"
Standing outside the door, Qing Ye looked at Liu Xi meaningfully, spoke slowly, then turned and left.
……
A quarter of an hour later.
Liu Xi washed up in the house, changed his clothes, and left the inn owned by the Blood Battle Mercenary Group.
When he went out, he saw that in the lobby downstairs, there were several people looking at him vaguely.
He sighed helplessly, ignored these people, and after a moment blended into the bustling crowd on the street outside the inn.
"It's just a chance encounter. Whether we can meet again in the future is another matter. It's better not to get too entangled. This will be good for everyone. It's a pity for a beauty like Qingye. I don't know who will get the chance in the end..."
Walking on the street, it is almost noon now. The streets are very busy and the flow of people is not comparable to yesterday evening or even late at night.
During this period of time, many villagers from villages surrounding Qingshan Town entered the town and set up stalls in some corners on both sides of the street to sell some agricultural products and some medicinal herbs that they were lucky enough to have picked on the way.
"Wanyaozhai, I don't know if Little Medical Fairy listened to what I said last night. I'll wait for my senior brother to go find her today..."
Liu Xi put his hands behind his head and walked leisurely towards Wanyaozhai.
It is worth mentioning that last night, after taking the Marrow Cleansing Creation Pill, he took the Xuan Pu Foundation Building Pill. Not only has his physical condition improved significantly, but his injuries, especially those on his right hand bones, have almost healed.
His current body recovery speed is absolutely amazing!
On the one hand, his physique has undergone a transformation. On the other hand, it is probably related to the pill that Xiao Xun'er asked Ling Ying to feed him yesterday.
Wanyaozhai plays an important role in the small town of Qingshan. It is naturally located in the center of the town and is extremely prosperous.
Liu Xi had been there yesterday, so he knew the direction and was familiar with the route this time. After a short while, he arrived at the imposing building of Wanyaozhai.
Before he entered, he saw a middle-aged man with a big belly slowly walking down from the upper floor of the building.
The middle-aged man was wearing a brocade robe and was surrounded by a group of guards. Liu Xi heard the people around him respectfully address him as "Mr. Yao".
There was a flash of strangeness in his eyes, and Liu Xi immediately realized who this person was.
If his guess was correct, this person was the behind-the-scenes owner of the huge Wanyaozhai. He had appeared in several chapters in the original novel. After Xiao Yixian got the opportunity to visit the cave, he heard the news from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group and secretly planned to seize the Seven-Colored Poison Scripture from Xiao Yixian.
The boss who has such thoughts about recruiting doctors for his own industry is definitely not a good person.
Of course, Little Medical Fairy has not yet obtained the opportunity, and there is nothing on her that would make her jealous, so naturally everyone is still living in peace.
However, Liu Xi vaguely remembered that Mr. Yao usually lived behind the scenes in a luxurious manor outside Qingshan Town. He would not come to the town easily. Could something happen?
He was just letting his thoughts wander out of boredom, but the next moment, with his five senses greatly enhanced after his transformation, he heard Mr. Yao coming down the stairs and snorted:
"This little medical fairy is getting more and more out of control. She doesn't know her place clearly! She has been eating at my Wanyaozhai for the past two years, using my Wanyaozhai's medicines, and receiving a large salary every quarter. Now she wants to leave? Ha, no way!"
"Yes, yes, sir, you are right. We must not let this little medical fairy leave. She is now a big cash cow for our Wanyaozhai. Even if she does nothing on weekdays, she must stay in our Wanyaozhai! Otherwise, our Wanyaozhai's business will be affected!"
At the entrance of the building, beside the portly middle-aged Mr. Yao, the shopkeeper who was sent by him to take care of the business was now kneeling and trying to please him.
"Hmph! Keep an eye on her! Provide her with good food and drink! But don't let her leave Wanyaozhai! During this period, no one is allowed to contact her, lest some of you let her escape secretly out of sympathy or coveting her beauty!" Mr. Yao held his hands to his stomach and said in a low voice.
"Please rest assured, sir. There is no way that the Little Medical Fairy could sneak away right under my nose!" said the shopkeeper, patting his chest.
"That would be best. If the people are gone, the coyotes I raise in my manor will need to be fed with blood and food every day. By then, I don't mind letting them taste what human flesh and blood tastes like..." Mr. Yao said with a wry smile.
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of many people around, including the shopkeeper, changed color.
After leaving the building entrance, Mr. Yao said nothing more and went straight out of the Wanyaozhai building. Outside, a gorgeously decorated carriage was parked quietly there.
After the carriage slowly drove away, in the lobby on the first floor of Wanyaozhai, Liu Xi, who was pretending to walk around the counters to choose goods, raised his head slightly and glanced at the guards who were strictly guarding the positions connecting the upper and lower floors, the entrances and the corridors, with a calm expression in his eyes.
He just took a quick glance and then looked away, weighing the options in his mind.
In the current situation, it is impossible for him to have safe contact with Xiao Yixiang. Once he gets serious and breaks in by force, the various risks and the price he has to pay for doing so are unnecessary and not worth it.
It is true that he is now a five-star fighter. In the entire Qingshan Town, probably only the leaders of the three largest mercenary groups can fight with him.
But he is alone, and Wanyaozhai has many guards. If he is surrounded and people from the major mercenary groups intervene, the situation will not be good.
By then, he was afraid that he would only be able to use the Seven-Star Grand Fighter Experience Card again to take the Little Medical Fairy away without restraint.
"However, before I reach the level of Grand Fighter, any one-day or seven-day experience card is extremely valuable to me. I still have great use for it. It would be a bit uneconomical to waste it in this small Qingshan Town!"
After some consideration, Liu Xi's eyes fell on the shopkeeper surnamed Song who was walking upstairs, and suddenly, an idea came to his mind.
He coughed and said to a female maid not far away:
"Do you have any magic cores for sale at Wanyaozhai?"
The maid came forward, showing a professional smile on her presentable face, and said:
"Sir, although our Wanyaozhai mainly deals in medicinal materials, we also sell some other products. In fact, magic cores are also a kind of medicinal material. Please come over here..."
