Looking at the sea of ​​spiritual herbs in front of her, Ji Xiuzhu instantly thought of a novel she had read before, which also had a related plot, that is, the heroine and her brothers, pretending to be pigs to eat tigers, and taking away all the spiritual herbs. It was a long time ago, and she couldn't remember it clearly.

Unlike the novel, at this moment Ji Xiuzhu was standing seriously in front of a pile of spiritual herbs.

But the strange thing is that the magical herb is surrounded by fences, just like a farmer's yard.

And the name of this spiritual herb is Bilian Grass! If she meets someone who offers her Bilian Grass, will she directly reply “No Bilian”? Or will she accept “Bilian”?

Thinking of this, Ji Xiuzhu couldn't help but feel dizzy.

However, they had been standing here for a while, but it was still as peaceful as usual. She couldn't help but wonder if there was any danger here, or if there was a great opportunity.

Qin Lan looked at the fields of green lotus grass in front of her and couldn't help but pinch herself.

It hurts! This is not a dream!

He was very excited. If he could take so many spiritual herbs out, he would be able to sell them for a lot of money! He would keep some for his second brother to make pills, and he would sell some for money. After all, the sect now had a little brother, so he had to consider his livelihood first.

As he was thinking about it, he was about to go forward to pick the spiritual herbs.

"Alan, be careful!"

"Don't go there!"

"Third Senior Brother!"

Qin Lan had just gone over to pick a spiritual herb when she heard three voices other than Ji Xiuzhu's.

So he subconsciously looked back, and when he did, he saw that everyone's eyes on him became even more serious.

Then, Qin Lan lowered her head and saw a black shadow coming towards her, slowly engulfing her shadow and then covering it.

Seeing this, Qin Lan slowly turned around and saw a giant eagle that was ten feet tall staring at Qin Lan as if it were a toy. It then slowly set its gaze on the green lotus grass in Qin Lan's hand.

The eagle stretched out one of its wings and pointed at the spiritual herb in Qin Lan's hand, then pointed at the signboard next to it.

Everyone looked over and saw a sign saying "No Trespassing".

Ji Xiuzhu was shocked when he saw this, and thought:

Oh my god, this is embarrassing for the demon beast world. Such a big sign, did this silly boy really not see it? No wonder she always felt that the fence outside was a bit out of place, it turned out to be owned by someone.

Seeing that Qin Lan was still standing there in a daze, the eagle tightened its grip on the spiritual herb, and it couldn't help but scream in anxiety.

Eagle: What's wrong with these mortals? I've told them clearly, but they still don't put down the Bilian grass and leave quickly. Do they really not want Bilian? Are they stupid? Can't they understand my instructions? It's over, if the master comes back and sees that one blade of grass is missing, my feathers will be gone!

After saying that, Da Diao instantly saw Ji Xiuzhu, who had clear eyes in the crowd.

Big Eagle: This mortal looks innocent and harmless. Besides, since these people are surrounding her, she must be the backbone. Why not let her take them away?

Ji Xiuzhu was originally looking at the eagle, but when she glanced at it and her eyes met the eagle's, she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

For some reason, she always felt that the look in the eagle's eyes when it looked at her was a little ambiguous.

Is it her imagination?

As she was thinking about it, she saw the eagle raised its wings, pointed at Ji Xiuzhu, then pointed at the sign beside them, then flapped its wings frantically, and finally gave Ji Xiuzhu a wenk.

Seeing this, Ji Xiuzhu seemed to understand what the eagle meant, but at the same time he couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

The creatures in the secret realm are so smart that they actually knew to come to me to talk. It seems that this silly bird knows who is the smartest in the team.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiuzhu also responded to Da Diao with an expression that said "I understand you".

Then, she said to Qin Lan, "Xiao Lan, come back quickly. This place has its own owner. We shouldn't touch other people's things without permission. Return the things to the owner."

After hearing Ji Xiuzhu's words, Qin Lan was confused, but she still said "Oh" obediently, returned the spiritual herb to the eagle, and then jumped happily to Ji Xiuzhu's side.

Seeing Ji Xiuzhu being so sensible, the eagle couldn't help but give Ji Xiuzhu a thumbs up in his heart:

Sure enough, the dumber the mortals are, the simpler and kinder they are.

Seeing that the big eagle had planted the spiritual herbs that Qin Lan had pulled out back into the soil, Ji Xiuzhu then prepared to leave with the people behind him.

But they had not walked far when they heard the sound of fighting behind them, so they turned back to see what was happening.

"Master, from the sound of fighting, it sounds like the spiritual herb garden we just passed by." Qin Lan said.

Upon hearing this, Ji Xiuzhu looked at Qin Lan curiously.

Although she knew that talisman cultivators had strong perception abilities, Qin Lan seemed to be only in the middle stage of the Golden Core stage. It was really unexpected that her perception was so sharp.

"Master, do you want me to go back and take a look?" The speaker was Gu Xingyun.

Just now, when he saw the vast expanse of green lotus grass, he was moved.

Not to mention that the Green Lotus Grass used to refine the Green Lotus Pill can elevate the realm of cultivators below the Spirit Transformation stage, the grade of the Green Lotus Grass alone is probably more than five hundred years old.

He originally thought that Ji Xiuzhu would have a fierce battle with the eagle for the opportunity, but he never expected that Ji Xiuzhu didn't even have the slightest interest in it.

Now that he thought about the fight going on over there, this was a good opportunity. In order to improve his cultivation, if he went there, he might be able to take some while the chaos was going on.

Seeing Gu Xingyun act like this, Ji Xiuzhu couldn't help but think more:

This Gu Xingyun was so attentive, there must be something fishy going on. According to the nature of fantasy novels, could it be that this guy had set his sights on that garden of spiritual herbs and wanted to go back and join in the fun?

Looking at Gu Xingyun's head that he didn't dare to raise for a long time, Ji Xiuzhu confirmed his thoughts.

Although Gu Xingyun didn't look up at Ji Xiuzhu's expression, he could already feel the air around him slowly getting colder, and he couldn't help but wipe his sweat secretly.

Gu Xingyun: Master, could it be that she has seen through my thoughts? Judging from Master's behavior just now, she seems to have no interest in the Green Lotus Grass. Could it be that she doesn't allow me to disturb her?

Thinking of this, he was about to say that he didn't need to go, when he heard Hu Yin's cold voice: "Master, look over there, someone is coming towards us."

When everyone heard this, they looked up and saw a huge eagle flying wildly, chasing a group of monks.

Ji Xiuzhu roughly estimated the number of people, about ten.

When the group of cultivators saw Ji Xiuzhu and the others, they shouted like they saw a life-saving straw: "Those in front, if you can help me stop the monster, I will reward you handsomely!"

As he spoke, the man who led the escape threw a bag of spirit stones at Ji Xiuzhu's feet.

Seeing this, Qin Lan picked up the bag on the ground, opened it and saw that it was full of top-grade spirit stones.

"Master, it is a top-grade spirit stone. It seems that there are quite a few of them."

Qin Lan held the bag of spirit stones in front of Ji Xiuzhu with both hands, but Ji Xiuzhu didn't even look at it and threw the bag back to the man.

Ji Xiuzhu: Are you kidding? I still have several thousand top-grade spirit stones. You want to buy my life with this little bit of stuff? I don't want to do a loss-making business.

Afterwards, Ji Xiuzhu and his group of guards stepped aside to make way for the few people.

When the fleeing people saw a road, they rushed over with a roar.

The man in the lead took the bag that Ji Xiuzhu threw back and had no time to think. He could only turn around, glare at Ji Xiuzhu fiercely, and then ran away without looking back.

Seeing that Ji Xiuzhu and the others were sensible and did not stop them, the eagle nodded at Ji Xiuzhu when passing by him.

Seeing this, Ji Xiuzhu also responded with a polite smile.

Qin Lan was standing by and saw Ji Xiuzhu smiling at the eagle. She couldn't help but wonder if she had seen it wrong.

Is his master making eye contact with that eagle?

"Master, it seems like there's a tail following us."

Mo Yunyu didn't care. Instead, he lowered his voice in Ji Xiuzhu's ear and spoke in a voice that only a few people could hear.

Ji Xiuzhu looked up at Mo Yunyu who had a calm face, and thought that this guy was finally willing to speak. Ever since coming out of the cave, this guy had intentionally or unintentionally not spoken to her. Now he was willing to speak?

Mo Yunyu knew that Ji Xiuzhu was looking at him, so he didn't even respond to Ji Xiuzhu's glance. Instead, after he finished speaking, he kept looking straight ahead without looking away.

However, he would still pay attention to Ji Xiuzhu's movements from time to time.

"Master, do you want me to go up and take care of the tail?" Hu Yin tightened the sword in his hand and then said this lightly.

Ji Xiuzhu retracted his gaze and said calmly, "No need. I know who she is, but it is not appropriate to alert her at this time. I want to see what kind of trouble she can stir up."

After saying this, he called on everyone to continue on their journey.

Just at this moment, after Ji Xiuzhu and his group left, Qin Yao jumped down from a big tree.

"Ji Xiuzhu, that bitch, has been traveling with her, but I don't see anything wrong with her. Could it be that she has discovered me?"

Qin Yao thought of this and shook her head instantly, putting the previous thought out of her mind.

"Impossible, she's not that smart. But her second apprentice does look interesting."

She had been following Ji Xiuzhu secretly all the way, and would occasionally slack off, but when she was slacking off that day, she accidentally saw Mo Yunyu whispering to a red-eyed crow, as if he was conveying a secret.

She wanted to get closer and eavesdrop, but was almost discovered by Mo Yunyu.

Qin Yao was originally an evil cultivator, so she was naturally sensitive to some bad auras. That day, she saw black air lingering around Mo Yunyu's body, which was clearly demonic energy.

“Ji Xiuzhu, if you knew that I had accepted a demon as my disciple, you would definitely be very surprised. Hahahaha.”

After he finished speaking, he saw countless birds in the forest flapping their wings and flying out, and then the forest suddenly returned to calm, with an eerie silence.

But what Qin Yao didn't know was that her idea of ​​thinking that she could control Ji Xiuzhu would cause her to die in vain in the ruins that followed, and her body would never be found.

Here, Ji Xiuzhu was leading everyone forward when he saw the eagle that was chasing the group of monks coming back the same way.

Seeing this, Ji Xiuzhu led everyone to make way for the eagle, only to see the eagle brake accurately and come in front of Ji Xiuzhu, then gave Ji Xiuzhu two stalks of Bilian Grass that it had taken back from the group of monks.

Ji Xiuzhu took the green lotus grass and held it in his palm, then blinked and looked at the eagle: "Are you going to give it to me?"

The eagle nodded, then bowed to Ji Xiuzhu, then flapped its wings and flew away. While in the air, the eagle let out a long cry before leaving.

Big Eagle: Hehe, if someone takes my things, you can't complain to my master. If my master knew that I didn't take good care of it and someone stole the spiritual herbs, that would be terrible.

But it overestimated Ji Xiuzhu's ability to understand, and thought it was just a reward for not stopping it from chasing people, and did not think of it as hush money at all.

Ji Xiuzhu looked at the green lotus grass in her hand, thinking. She turned to look at the group of people from Huyin, and found that they also looked puzzled.

"This eagle is really strange. It actually took the initiative to give us spiritual herbs." Qin Lan scratched her head, her mind full of question marks.

"Perhaps this spiritual herb is because it wants to repay my master, so I didn't stop it. Alas, see, my master's charm has been transmitted to this demon beast." Ji Xiuzhu analyzed, "Since it wants to send it, then we should accept it. Boss, you keep it well, and ask the second brother to refine a pill when you go back."

Hu Yin nodded and put the Bilian Grass away.

However, when Mo Yunyu heard this, his face was full of black lines.

Did something go wrong?

Why didn't you give the medicine to him yourself if you asked him to make the elixir? Instead, you gave him the herbs through the eldest brother?

So, is his master's head full of straw?

If she wanted him to make the elixir, she could just ask him directly. As long as she proposed it, he would not refuse. By doing this, are they treating him as an outsider?

Also, I didn't talk to her during the whole journey, but she didn't notice anything wrong? She didn't even come to comfort me.

The more Mo Yunyu complained, the more aggrieved he felt. He snorted coldly and went forward on his own.

When Ji Xiuzhu and others heard Mo Yunyu's cold snort, they couldn't help but look at each other.

Ji Xiuzhu looked at Huyin, and Huyin waved his hand to indicate that he did not provoke Mo Yunyu.

She looked at Qin Lan again, and Qin Lan smiled bitterly and said, "Master, do you think I have the ability to make Second Senior Brother angry?"

Qin Lan secretly wiped her sweat. Her master's aura really hadn't changed at all. It was still as scary as ever.

Seeing that Qin Lan and Hu Yin had no results, Ji Xiuzhu turned his attention to Gu Xingyun.

The moment Gu Xingyun met Ji Xiuzhu's gaze, she felt her heart stop for a moment, and then began beating wildly. The look in her master's eyes almost made her think that she was going to kill her.

"Master, I don't know why Second Senior Brother is here."

Seeing that he had no clue, Ji Xiuzhu simply stopped pursuing the matter. However, his eyes flickered as he looked at Mo Yunyu's back.

None of his three disciples could offend Mo Yunyu, so it seemed that only she, the master, could do it.

Thinking about it now, Ji Xiuzhu had a vague idea in his mind. He was afraid that he had offended him when he was in the cave.

But she couldn't figure out one thing. Wasn't she helping him by giving him the chance to obtain the Heavenly Spirit Cauldron? Why was she still angry?

Could it be that she was using Gu Xingyun as a tactic to provoke him?

But if she didn't do this, how could Mo Yunyu accept this opportunity?

She thought about it over and over again, but still couldn't figure out what the problem was, so she simply stopped thinking about it, and just let out a long sigh, silently lamenting that survival is not easy.
