Chapter 307
"But I suppose there should be. After all, our Flower-Moving Palace also uses quite a few medicinal herbs."
".. Whether there are or not, we'll know when we go there."
Jiang Chen looked at Hua Jin with a smile, then said to Yin Yin Luoxia: "Yin Luoxia, arrange for Shopkeeper Xie to start serving the dishes."
"Okay."
Yin Yin Luoxia nodded with a smile.
And the others also looked at Hua Jin with smiles on their faces.
"Why... why are you all looking at me?"
Noticing everyone's gazes, Hua Jin's originally youthful and snow-white face turned red in a flash.
Sang Sang said earnestly: "Sister Hua Jin, your face is red."
Hua Jin subconsciously reached out and touched her face.
"Puchi~"
"Hahaha!"
"..."
Hearing Sang Sang's words, everyone couldn't help it anymore and burst into laughter.
"Stop touching it."
Jiang Chen said helplessly: "If you were afraid of me, you wouldn't be complaining about me behind my back to Sang Sang and Feifei all these days. If you weren't afraid, then just say you want to go to the Great Ming Dynasty directly. Why do you have to find such poor excuses? If you have something to say next time, just tell me directly. I'm not a bad person; would I eat you alive?!"
Hearing this,
Hua Jin looked at Sang Sang and Qu Qu Feiyan, whose eyes were smiling into crescent shapes.
Her already flushed face spread all the way to her earlobes.
Was her intention that obvious?
Even Sang Sang and Qu Qu Feiyan could see it at a glance?
Chapter 241: Only Stronger, Not Weaker!
The stars and moon were bright, and the Milky Way was in the sky.
Beside the grass hut on Cang Mountain,
Li Li Hanyi looked at Jiang Chen with curiosity and surprise: "Disciple, what kind of method is this that you can even control these insects and beasts?"
Just a moment ago,
from ants and spiders to jackals, tigers, and leopards, in just half an hour, almost all the insects and beasts on the entire Cang Mountain had gathered on the peak under her feet. The number was so large that it directly filled the entire mountaintop.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes,
and Jiang Chen was right beside her,
Li Li Hanyi would have even suspected that she had fallen into some kind of illusion array.
"This is a beast-control method I accidentally learned from an ancient book a long time ago."
Jiang Chen said with a smile: "This was also because Hua Jin mentioned that we were still missing a few types of medicinal herbs, and that's when I remembered it. Now it's just right to try it out. Instead of letting Sang Sang and the others search the whole mountain for herbs, it's better to let these insects and beasts help search."
After finishing dinner,
Sang Sang took Hua Jin and Qu Qu Feiyan to find Zhou Zhou Zhiruo.
As for the others,
they went to the gambling house together at Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo's suggestion.
In Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo's words,
if I can't win money from Huang Rong and the others, can't I win money from others?
However,
believe it or not,
every time she played with others in the gambling house, Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo basically won a lot of silver every time.
Just like the last time she came to the gambling house,
a direct disciple of Venerable Lanyue of the Xianxia Sect, which had a good relationship with Snow Moon City, lost nearly a hundred taels of silver to Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo in less than an hour.
And there was another time before that,
which was even more exaggerated;
the two masters Yuanyong and Yuantong of the Shaolin Temple lost nearly seven hundred taels to Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo combined.
If Yin Yin Luoxia hadn't been unable to watch anymore at the end, it is estimated that Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo could have won even more.
Of course,
all this silver ended up in the pockets of Huang Rong, Lianxing, and the others within a few days.
Watching Li Li Hanyi still looking curious, Jiang Chen smiled gently: "If Master is interested, I'll teach you!"
And hearing that Jiang Chen was going to teach her something again,
Li Li Hanyi's face turned red all of a sudden.
A few nights ago, her disciple said he wanted to teach her something, and the key was that she actually believed it...
"No nonsense, let's talk about serious business."
Li Li Hanyi rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen, then asked with some confusion: "Actually, I've always been unable to understand why you want Sang Sang to join that so-called Mount Emei Sect? Doesn't our Snow Moon City have many people who can teach Sang Sang Wu Gong?"
Jiang Chen heard this,
and without explaining immediately, asked with a smile: "Master, let me ask you, if you were to return to the Lei Family Fortress now, do you think those disciples of the Lei Family Fortress would respect you?"
Li Li Hanyi shook her head directly: "Impossible. I swore before that I would never return to the Lei Family Fortress in this life."
Jiang Chen twitched his mouth: "I said if..."
Li Li Hanyi: "There is no if."
Jiang Chen: "..."
"Don't mess around, we're talking about Sang Sang's matter. I didn't ask you to really return to the Lei Family Fortress. Besides, even if you were willing to go back, I wouldn't agree."
Hearing Jiang Chen's words,
a smile couldn't help but appear on Li Li Hanyi's face, but soon she asked again:
"What does this have to do with Sang Sang?"
"Just answer me first. If you returned to the Lei Family Fortress, do you think those disciples would respect and revere you?"
"No... I suppose they would."
Jiang Chen could see that his master had more than just a little opinion about the Lei Family Fortress. If he hadn't glared at her, she probably would have insisted.
"Then why do you think they would revere you?"
"Because I am the Snow Moon Sword Immortal?"
"Then what if you didn't have the strength of a Sword Immortal, or were just a weak woman without the power to truss a chicken?"
"I... I suppose they would too?"
Li Li Hanyi said with some uncertainty: "After all, my status is there. Even if they don't respect me behind my back, at least they wouldn't show it on the surface."
"Then that's it."
Jiang Chen said softly: "Actually, Sang Sang is in the same situation now."
"The reason why all the disciples in our Snow Moon City are polite when they see Sang Sang is actually just because of me."
"But Master, have you ever thought about whether those disciples would secretly gossip about Sang Sang behind her back?"
Li Li Hanyi was startled: "Gossip about what?"
"Naturally, some negative things. Master, think about it. Before she knew Sang Sang, she was already making a living by selling flowers in our Snow Moon City. I think many disciples in our Snow Moon City must have seen Sang Sang at that time."
"And human hearts are always complex and jealous. Sang Sang is not a disciple of our Snow Moon City and has no cultivation, but now she can go anywhere in our Snow Moon City, and even places like Cang Mountain, where ordinary disciples cannot go, she can enter at will. Master, what do you think other disciples would think?"
Hearing this,
Li Li Hanyi understood a little.
"Since that's the case, wouldn't it be fine to let Sang Sang join our Snow Moon City?"
Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Then if you knew that if you returned to the Lei Family Fortress, you would be gossiped about all day by those disciples, saying that the only reason the Lei Family Fortress agreed to let you return was because of your father, Lei Mengsha, would you still go back?"
Hearing this, Li Li Hanyi fell silent.
Jiang Chen continued: "If it were when we first met Sang Sang, these things would naturally be no problem. But now, Sang Sang might have already heard some rumors, so even if you wanted to let Sang Sang join Snow Moon City, she might not agree. And the reason Sang Sang is still staying in Snow Moon City now is just because we are here."
After finishing,
End of Chapter
