In fact, it wasn't just Mrs. Huang who made deals with Granny Mu. There are local gentry in the nearby five towns and four counties, and the gentry like to buy medicine from Granny Mu.

Of course, these people don't know her true face.

She also handed Wu Laoba a Gathering Spirit Bead, which was refined from the body of the resentful wood spirit, which could be used against the creature that had no power to resist, and quickly extracted its flesh and blood essence.

With the Gathering Spirit Bead, the mountain bandits don't have to drive a large herd of cattle and sheep up the mountain, they only need to bring her the Gathering Spirit Bead filled with flesh and blood essence.

Hearing this, the boy dipped himself in water and wrote a twisted word "human" on the table.

He hadn't read before, but the word was so simple that he had read it more than once, and it wasn't hard to remember.

Then he made a gesture of opening his mouth to bite the word "human" on the table.

Chitose chuckled. His actions are too funny.

"Biting?" she muttered, "Cannibalism?" I am so good, I can guess it right. ”

She understood, and what the boy wanted to ask was, Granny Mu could eat livestock for a living, so why did she have to eat people? If she didn't eat people, it didn't seem like she would have caused death, right?

Chitose blinked and grinned, "Because it's delicious." ”

Boy: "......" This time he was really speechless.

"People can also eat chickens, ducks, cows and sheep to survive, why do you have to eat bear's paws, shark fins, bird's nest abalone?" Chitose shrugged, "In the same way, Granny Mu just thinks that the taste of people is better, maybe the meat is delicate and tasteless." But anyone who has the power of life and death thinks that he can kill whatever he wants, and he can eat whatever he wants, and Granny Mu is no exception. ”

When she had said this, she noticed that the boy was looking at her with burning eyes.

"What for?"

He wanted to ask if she had ever eaten human flesh, otherwise how could she describe it so vividly. However, he couldn't ask such a complicated question.

Hurry up and cure the dumb disease. The boy drank a glass of water and climbed into bed to shake the quilt.

It's night, it's time to go to bed, and tomorrow you have to wake up early.

As he fell asleep, a glass lamp slowly appeared next to Chitose. She stroked the cracks on the lamp, and sighed leisurely for a while.

She had lost half of her life in the past, and the natal weapon she had taken advantage of was completely destroyed, so she had to replace the glass lamp again, intending to cultivate it as a natal weapon.

This inconspicuous little lamp has also had a highlight moment of infinite power and fame, and after it was broken, it was accidentally obtained by her and has been listed as a collection. Now, it's as bleak as she is.

I don't know that it won't be until the Year of the Monkey to finish this lamp.

Changing the natal weapon means that her cultivation path is completely different from before. At least until this lamp is repaired, her realm is expected to improve.

The bean flame in the lamp is a little brighter than before, and it no longer looks like it is extinguished in the blink of an eye. This flame represents the power of her wishes, and the more abundant the will, the more intense the lamp burns.

Chitose looked at this spark, then looked at the sleeping boy on the bed, and subconsciously rubbed his temples. Her road seems to be still long.

She walked out of the room and found the postman to ask for a horse.

The man's face was full of embarrassment: "The horses in the post station are all used for urgency. "The urgent order from the south to the north passes through here, and the messenger is to change into the best horses and continue to gallop.

Chitose silently added another piece of silver.

The postman immediately remembered: "Oh, if the girl is in a hurry, I have my own horse, and I can sell it to you." ”

She smiled like a flower: "Then thank you." ”

"You, you're welcome. The postman was dazzled, and he stammered a little when he spoke, "Who is out and about when they are not in a hurry?"

......

Before dawn the next day, the "sister and brother" rode away under the noses of the postman and headed for the splendid city.

When the sun rises, there is only one man left on horseback.

There are more and more pedestrians on the official road, and the road is becoming safer and safer.

Before he was ready, he arrived at the Splendid City.

There is no special checkpoint at the city gate here, so he passed through it smoothly, and then found a nearby medicine store to grab medicine.

Most of the medicines for the treatment of dumb diseases have already arrived, and only a few simple ones are missing, and Chitose is written down on paper. As long as the boy handed over the prescription and grabbed the medicine, he didn't even have to make a sound, so he had the last few medicines such as cantharids and mountain winds.

Although the medicine store guy was a little surprised when he saw the fierce poison medicine on the prescription, he didn't say anything, and grabbed the medicine to collect money.

When the boy came out of the medicine walk, he went to the vegetable market to buy half a cooked chicken, broke out the minced meat and fed it to the hungry white cat.

When that's done, it's noon.

He walked north along the vegetable market, found an alley with a ginkgo tree at the entrance, went through the wooden doors of three houses, and finally stopped at the door of the fourth house, and knocked lightly.

The person who answered the door was an old man in his sixties, with a round face and a bad nose, who only opened a crack in the door to look at people from the inside: "Who?"

The boy knew he was looking for the wrong person when he saw his face, so he handed him an oiled paper bag.

"For me?" the old man took it with a puzzled expression, and looked at him before bowing his head to unpack.

In the oiled paper bag, there is a woodcut leaf, and two real gold leaves!

He was taken aback, looked at these two things, and then looked at the boy, and his voice suddenly raised: "The eighth asked you to send it over?"

The boy nodded.

The old man shoved the oiled paper bag into his hand, turned around and slammed the door shut.

The boy was stunned for a few breaths, only then did he hear the old man's voice coming from behind the door, full of anger: "Give it back to him! Tell him again that Lao Tzu will not accept his things until he dies!"

"Tsk, even my father doesn't want to see him. The white cat peeked out of the bamboo basket to see the excitement.

The old man's voice was so loud that the neighbors were alarmed. The boy didn't want to stay here any longer, so he retied the oiled paper bag, took a few steps back, raised his wrist and threw the paper bag directly behind the courtyard door.

A muffled sound, followed by a scream:

"Ouch!"

The boy smeared oil on the soles of his feet, and before the old man could open the door again and come out to curse, he flew away.

The family's surname is Wu, and the old man is the father of the mountain bandit Wu Laoba.

In Pinggu County, Chitose visited Wu Laoba at night and successfully took away the gold he had earned from selling medicine. Wu Laoba thought he was dreaming, and at that time he also mentioned a condition:

He wanted to send some money to his father, who lived in Fairview City.

Old man Wu actually only has one son and one daughter, but his son is the eighth in the clan, so he has this title. Wu Laoba has been a prodigal since he was a child, killed two people at the age of eighteen, was wanted by Splendid City, and did not find a way out, so he had to go to Poison Fang Mountain to fall into the grass.

After the accident, his mother was angry to death, and the little sister who was about to leave the cabinet was divorced by the other party.

Wu Laoba, who was in Poison Fang Mountain at that time, was furious when he learned of this, and took advantage of the night to go back to the city and kill the man who had withdrawn from the marriage.
