Chapter 88: Great Musician Xu Que
The white fox woman frowned: "What happened?"
"Niu Dali is still very unskilled at alchemy. Xiao Yu thinks he is not suitable to be a medicine boy, but our tribe has no one else good at alchemy. So just now, after they continuously refined two furnaces of waste pills, Xiao Yu lost her temper and said she didn't want to refine anymore. Now she has locked herself in her house and refuses to come out." The sheep-horned woman said anxiously.
After hearing this, the white fox woman sighed and shook her head: "This girl... she must be feeling guilty! After all, the lightning tribulation sacrifice is in two days, it's normal for her to be under pressure. I'll go talk to her."
"That won't work, Great King. If you go to find Xiao Yu, she will definitely not want to come out even more. She is hiding in her house now, she must feel that there is no way to refine the Spirit Nourishing Pill and Blood Origin Pill, so she is throwing a tantrum with herself." The sheep-horned woman shook her head.
The white fox woman also couldn't help but fall silent, her expression a bit solemn, as if those two types of pills were very important to her.
Xu Que understood roughly what happened after hearing the two talk, and immediately patted his chest: "Don't worry, I'll handle this, I can fix it."
"You?" The white fox woman looked at Xu Que.
The sheep-horned woman also noticed Xu Que at this time, and looked at him suspiciously, but didn't speak.
Xu Que widened his eyes and nodded: "Yeah, isn't it just alchemy? I can do it!"
"You can even refine pills?" The white fox woman was surprised.
"Of course, I am an alchemist!" Xu Que said very proudly.
Although he had never refined pills, but... at least he had used a "One-Star Alchemist" skill book. With this identity, even if he wasn't skilled, the system judged that he could refine one-star pills 100% of the time!
However, the white fox woman was still a bit suspicious, because generally, cultivators who focused on alchemy wouldn't be very strong themselves, after all, they had no time to practice those techniques.
But when the sheep-horned woman heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said: "That's great, come and be Xiao Yu's medicine boy, she will definitely try again. Let's go, let's find her."
Saying that, she pulled Xu Que's hand and walked toward the distant house.
"What the hell, why do I have to be a medicine boy?"
Xu Que was pulled along, but also protested loudly.
The white fox woman immediately followed, "Don't shout, just be a medicine boy if you're told to. I haven't settled the score with you for what happened in the cave just now!"
"I was really dizzy just now, really, heaven and earth can testify!" Xu Que vowed, but didn't pester about whether to be a medicine boy or not.
After all, he had indeed taken advantage of her. Xu Que knew that one had to have some face when being a person, couldn't be too shameless, and had to give face when it was time to give face, otherwise how could he take advantage next time?
The white fox woman rolled her eyes at him and didn't say a word, following behind.
Soon, a few people arrived in front of a small house.
The entrance of the small house was very clean, and the outer wall was painted pink and white, but many red carrots were hanging under the eaves.
"Knock knock!"
At this moment, the sheep-horned woman walked straight forward, knocked on the wooden door gently, and said: "Xiao Yu, open the door quickly, I've found a new medicine boy to help you, definitely better than Niu Dali!"
"..."
Everything was quiet in the room, with no response.
But everyone could sense that there was indeed someone in the room, just that the other party didn't want to speak.
"Xiao Yu, believe me, I didn't lie to you, will you open the door?"
The sheep-horned woman continued to knock on the door patiently and persuade.
Xu Que shook his head repeatedly, stepped back a few steps, retreated to the white fox woman's side, and asked in a low voice: "Who is this Xiao Yu? Why is her temper so big?"
The white fox woman glared at Xu Que, then shook her head and sighed: "Xiao Yu cares too much about alchemy. My tribulation this time has a high risk, and I will attract a Six-Heaven Lightning Tribulation, needing enough pills to heal at any time. Xiao Yu is afraid that I will fail the tribulation because there are no pills, so she..."
"Just this little thing, leave it to me to refine, let's go, go to the alchemy room!" Xu Que said and was about to leave.
The white fox woman pulled Xu Que's hem, frowned and said: "Don't mess around, hurry up and help think of a way to persuade Xiao Yu to come out, otherwise I'll settle the score with you for what happened in the cave just now!"
"Yo, let me tell you, I fear nothing under heaven, threatening me is useless... Alright alright, stop looking at me like that. Isn't it just persuading someone? No problem, tell me first if this Xiao Yu is male or female, how old? So I can prescribe the right medicine."
"..." The white fox woman's expression softened, and she said: "Xiao Yu's ancestor is from the Jade Rabbit race. The descendants of this race are all female. However, Xiao Yu is still young, and her personality is indeed a bit childish, but she is very talented in alchemy."
"Hey, Jade Rabbit? Jade Rabbit is called Xiao Yu, then what is your name? Xiao Jiu? Xiao Wei?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this." The white fox woman's face tightened again, and she said angrily: "If you can make Xiao Yu come out, I'll tell you."
"This is too simple." Xu Que laughed immediately.
"Simple?? Fine, Yun'er, stop knocking, let Sun Wukong try, he said he can make Xiao Yu come out!" The white fox woman seemed to think Xu Que was bragging, and said a bit angrily, calling the sheep-horned woman back.
The sheep-horned woman Yun'er was stunned, and looked at Xu Que, her face full of suspicion.
A strange outsider who just arrived, can call the most stubborn Xiao Yu out? How is this possible?
"Great King, should I continue to try?" Yun'er said with a bitter smile.
"No, just let him try. If he can't, I still have a score to settle with him!" The white fox woman looked at Xu Que angrily.
"Can't? Stop joking, I, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong, am capable of anything! Isn't it just calling a rabbit out? Extremely simple!"
Yun'er's expression changed, and she said anxiously: "Shh! Keep your voice down, Xiao Yu hates it most when others call her a rabbit! They are not rabbits, they are the Jade Rabbit race!"
"Yeah! Sun Wukong, don't talk nonsense anymore. The Jade Rabbit race is rumored to have been taken to the Immortal Palace by a fairy, they can be considered celestial rabbits, do you know that?" The white fox woman also said solemnly.
"Cut, who doesn't know that! I even know that fairy is named Chang'e. Later, my junior brother Marshal Tianpeng teased her and was demoted to the mortal world to be a pig, and after that, he accompanied a dead bald donkey to the West to fetch scriptures." Xu Que summarized the story of Journey to the West seriously.
The white fox woman and Yun'er were both bluffed into a daze, staring blankly at Xu Que.
"Uh..." Xu Que paused and smiled: "This is a very profound biological problem! I'll discuss it with you in detail another day. But now, the most important thing isn't just calling this dead rabbit out? Too simple. Someone, bring me the golden cudgel! Pfft! No! Bring me an ancient zither..."
"Ancient zither? What do you need an ancient zither for? We don't have one here!"
"Of course, it's for accompaniment." Xu Que replied, and with a thought, he summoned the system and entered the mall interface.
"System, give me a cheap and good ancient zither!"
Swish!
Suddenly, countless ancient zithers appeared on the light screen in front of him.
Xu Que took a casual look and bought the cheapest Green Lute Jiaowei Zither, which only cost 10 Acting Cool Points, and took it out directly from thin air.
"You aren't going to sing again, are you?"
Seeing this, the white fox woman thought of Xu Que singing something like "The Great King called me to patrol the mountain" earlier, which forced the array guards to activate the killing array against him. Seeing him take out an ancient zither now, she was scared and hurriedly said: "Xiao Yu's mood is already very bad, don't provoke her, this trick won't work."
Xu Que smiled: "Don't worry, don't worry. Besides being an alchemist, I am also a great musician, uh, a musician. I want to use music to influence Xiao Yu!"
He had obtained five auxiliary profession skill books in a row when he was in the Spirit Domain Tower, including a musician.
This was a very clever skill that could influence people's emotions and reason.
So Xu Que now, besides wanting to call Xiao Yu out, also wanted to try for himself how powerful this one-star musician ability was.
Seeing his tiger-skin skirt sway, he sat cross-legged on the ground, placed the ancient zither on his lap, placed his hands flat on the strings, closed his eyes slightly, and took a deep breath.
He looked very serious and full of momentum.
The white fox woman and Yun'er originally wanted to speak, but seeing his momentum and appearance, they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Ding... ding..."
At this moment, Xu Que's fingertips moved, plucking the strings lightly, and a long and beautiful zither sound immediately spread out.
"This zither sound..."
"He can actually play."
The two women were shocked instantly, and seemed to be attracted by this zither sound.
As this strand of zither sound gradually swayed, Xu Que opened his mouth lightly, pulled his loud voice, and began to sing.
"Little rabbit be good, open the door, open it quickly, I want to come in..."
