Chapter 10: What Do You Take To Thank Me?
After waiting for a long time, Eldest Senior Brother finally returned, the demon's face was filled with smiles, his peach blossom eyes shining brightly.
"Master brother, how is it?" Qin Luo Yi quickly went up to him, her eyes eagerly looking at him.
"We didn't go to Lion Tiger Cliff, I and Fifth Sister went to Xinglu Hall instead. We handed them over to Brother Fang of Xinglu Hall. After Brother Fang understood the situation, he told them to enter the Maze Forest tomorrow and they can only come out two days later." Feng Fei Liu said with a smile.
"Really?" Qin Luo Yi was so excited that she almost jumped up, her smile exceptionally brilliant, her phoenix eyes shining like stars: "Big Brother Master, thank you! I'm really too grateful to you!"
Since there is a rule in the Piaoyou Sect that prohibits private fights, she knows that it's impossible to completely prevent Jian Yuyan and others from being punished. This result is already the best outcome.
Feng Fei Li looked at her, excited to the point of being unable to restrain herself, and raised an eyebrow, saying with a playful tone: "Thank me? Little Shifu, how do you plan on thanking me?"
Qin Luoyi didn't think he would actually want to thank him, so he was taken aback for a moment before smiling with his eyes narrowed: "Wherever I can be of use, just let me know, Brother."
After several contacts, she also knew that this senior brother was completely different from the second senior brother. She said with ease that such a good person as the senior brother would not let her do anything difficult.
"Alright, sounds great!" Feng Fei Li smiled with joy, her peach blossom eyes shining brightly: "I heard from Fifth Sister that you caught pheasants and picked wild mushrooms in my courtyard yesterday, cooked a delicious meal, and drank alone... Sister, tonight, just follow what you did yesterday and cook a good meal for Big Brother too."
Qin Luoyi smiled and said: "It's no problem to have a good meal, but... Senior Brother, can we change it to another day? How about tomorrow night?"
Hearing Feng Fei Liu say this, she had thoroughly put her mind at ease. Eldest Senior Brother hadn't let her down after all; he really was a good person.
"What's wrong?" Feng Fei Liu raised an eyebrow and looked at her.
"Tonight, I want to go see Jian Yuyan, he's going to the Maze Forest... Although it's not as treacherous as Lion Tiger Cliff, it's still quite perilous. I'm a bit worried." Qin Luoyi said with a tinge of sadness.
"Hehe, in that case, let's make it tomorrow night then." Feng Fei Li knew the reason and readily agreed.
Qin Luoyi bowed again and then left Tongmu Changqing's cave with excitement, heading towards Qianlan Mountain.
"Little junior sister."
Not far from walking out, a green and seductive figure suddenly fell from the air and blocked her way.
"Big Sister Wu."
Qin Luoyi didn't expect to see Liu Qingcheng here, and his heart skipped a beat. A joyful smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
"What's the hurry, little sister? Where are you off to in such a rush? Could it be Mount Qianlian?" Liu Qingcheng was also smiling, but her smile didn't quite reach her eyes.
I don't know why, but Qin Luoyi looked at her and felt that she must be waiting for him on purpose. Smiling and nodding: "Yes, I'm going to Qianlan Mountain. Fifth Sister, where are you headed?"
Liu Qingcheng hummed softly and smiled: "Little Shifu, your friend doesn't need to go to Lion Tiger Cliff, are you happy now?"
Qin Luoyi didn't expect her to ask so directly, blinked and nodded: "Of course I'm happy, thanks to Fifth Sister for bringing it up." Since she had already spoken clearly, she couldn't pretend not to know anymore, that would be too fake.
"You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank someone, thank Eldest Brother instead. However, Little Sister, although the Maze Forest is not as treacherous as the Lion Tiger Cliff, it's still very dangerous. Since you're in a hurry to see your friend, go quickly and tell them to be careful."
After finishing speaking, he looked at her with a profound gaze, then rode the divine rainbow towards the direction of Duanmu Changqing's cave mansion and disappeared.
Qin Luo Yi stood still, gazing at her receding figure, pursed his lips for a moment, then let out a sigh, stamped his feet, and again darted towards the direction of Qian Shan Mountain.
"Master Qin." Seeing her arrival, Luo Zi Jun and the others were very excited and quickly came to greet her. "We don't need to go to Lion Tiger Cliff anymore, thank you Master Qin."
Jian Yu Yan's lips curled up slightly, his eyes gazing at her with warmth and gentleness.
Qin Luoyi looked at them and smiled, "I already know, but that Maze Forest is not a good place either. You should still be careful." As she spoke, she took out a few talismans from her bracelet and handed each of them over a dozen.
"What rank is this talisman?" As soon as Song Huashan and the others took it over, they felt a shocking surge of spiritual power on the talisman paper, and their eyes widened in shock.
"No matter what level it is, you'd better take it with you. When you enter the Maze Forest, if there's any danger, this talisman might come in handy." Qin Luo smiled slightly and turned around to pull Jian Yuyan aside, handing him a few healing pellets: "You take these."
In Jian Yu's pitch-black eyes, a strange light flickered, and without saying anything else, he directly accepted it.
Qin Luo Yi again reminded him to be careful.
Jian Yu Yan looked at the talismans in his hand and smiled, "With these talismans of yours, haha, we can walk sideways through the Maze Forest without any problem."
Luo Mu Jun and the others couldn't see it, but he came from a family of Fu Lu masters and was quite fond of refining talismans himself. Therefore, he knew that Qin Luo Yi's talismans were probably high-grade talismans of 8th or 9th rank. Moreover, they were all refined using elixirs, so the lethality of these talismans wasn't something that ordinary 8th or 9th rank talismans could compare to.
"I hope so." Qin Luo Yi heard him speak with arrogance, and suddenly burst out laughing, the light in his phoenix eyes flowing like the brightest star in the night sky.
The mysterious and winding forest of Piaoyou Sect was actually a vast mountain range, the entire mountain range was shrouded in thick white mist, from afar, it was impossible to catch a glimpse of what was inside.
Of course, that fog was not formed naturally, but the great ability of the Xuan Mi sect set up a powerful formation, covering everything on the mountain.
Lost, lost... As the name suggests, on that mountain, people who enter are most likely to lose their direction. Often, they don't even know where they've walked to, because they can't tell directions and unknowingly walk into those dangerous areas, which is extremely possible.
The next day, Qin Luoyi went to Qian Luan Mountain early in the morning and personally sent Jian Yuyan into the mysterious forest. Before entering, she quietly gave him many talismans, all of which she had hastily made the night before.
Apart from Jian Yu Yan and his group entering, Yu Qing Yan's group was also sent in. The Criminal Law Department dispatched two Wu Sheng Xiu disciples to register their names first, then watched them all enter before leaving the Maze Forest.
After Jian Yu Yan entered the gate of the maze forest, her figure disappeared. No matter how hard Qin Luo Yi stared outside, she couldn't see anything... She stood there for a long time, then let out a sigh and left, because she knew that standing outside would only make her anxious, and she wouldn't be able to help them in any way.
She returned to the master's cave and practiced for a while. When it was almost dusk, she stopped practicing and went outside to catch a mountain chicken, a rabbit, and a large bird whose name she couldn't recall. She also picked some wild mushrooms and vegetables.
She wrapped the pheasant in mud and made it into a beggar's chicken, while the rabbit was skinned and roasted over an open flame, and the bird was stewed with mushrooms.
Normally, this would be enough, but today is different. This is to thank Master Big Brother, so it's not enough and lacks sincerity.
After thinking for a while, she ran outside to pick some wild vegetables and went to several pheasant nests to find some eggs. Of course, she thought she was very kind-hearted, not taking all the eggs from each nest, just picking a few from each one.
Inside the bracelet space, there are all kinds of pots and pans, seasonings, and everything is exquisite. She washed the wild vegetables clean, waited until the roasted chicken and stewed bird soup were ready, then took out the wild vegetables to stir-fry them, and also stir-fried those eggs with scallions.
"It smells so good!"
Qin Luo Yi had just brought the stir-fried dishes to the table and was about to call Feng Fei Liu when Feng Fei Liu's handsome figure appeared, with Duan Mu Chang Qing behind him.
Qin Luoyi raised an eyebrow in surprise, she hadn't expected Du Mu Changqing to come, given their relationship, she thought he would be too proud to show up.
However, in front of her senior brother, she didn't say anything. Du Mu Chang Qing's expression was cold and unfeeling, and he also didn't speak.
"Master, you've come at just the right time. I was just about to call for you all, and here you are." Qin Luo's face was filled with smiles as she welcomed them to sit down, while serving up mushroom soup, roasted rabbit, and a whole steamed chicken that hadn't been cut into pieces. In an instant, the entire room was filled with the aroma of food.
There was food and meat, and naturally there was also fine wine. Qin Luoyi took out the spiritual wine she had refined using her own spiritual plants.
Feng Fei Li looked at the table full of dishes, with a hint of a gentle smile on her lips, making people feel relaxed and at ease at first glance.
"Wow, sister is indeed skilled with her hands, and has managed to whip up so many delicious dishes. Just smelling the aroma is making me really hungry!"
Du Mu's bright black eyes flashed with surprise, in the Holy Dragon Continent, Qin Luoyi was the treasured daughter of the King of Town South, a princess conferred by the Emperor himself. He didn't expect her to know all this... it really caught him off guard.
"Master brother must think it's delicious, but he must eat a bit more." Qin Luo smiled with her eyes open, and since someone was praising the food she cooked herself, she was naturally delighted.
She handed him a chicken leg and carefully placed it in his bowl, then personally poured him a full glass of wine.
Du Mu Changqing sat on one side, motionless, only staring at her with those piercing eyes. Qin Luoyi felt extremely displeased in her heart, but thinking of their past grievances and the fact that they were in front of their senior brother, she couldn't let things get out of hand.
If the eldest brother is curious for a moment, and finds out that she has "disabled" the second brother, that small-minded man will be furious and do something unpredictable!
She secretly gritted her teeth, tore off another chicken leg and put it in Du Mu's plate with a smile, also filling his cup with wine: "Second brother, don't be polite, if you think the dishes made by your sister are to your taste, eat more."
Du Mu nodded slightly, his complexion improved a lot, and even in his eyes, there was a faint smile that flashed by.
After dinner for nearly an hour, Feng Feiliu was very talkative and humorous, listening to him speak was absolutely a kind of enjoyment.
It's Du Mu Changqing, who is normally cold and doesn't talk much, but when he's with Feng Feilu, he's not as aloof anymore, it's like he's become a different person. You can tell that the two of them have a good relationship.
What Qin Laiyi did the most was eating, listening to their conversations, and diligently pouring wine for them. Occasionally when they asked her questions, she would respond... After a meal, she felt that the relationship between the three of them had become much closer.
Moreover, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that Du Mu Chang Qing's gaze towards her at times could be considered kind. (In fact, she thought he was gentle, but the words made her think, and her goosebumps rose - could Du Mu Chang Qing really be gentle to her? She must have misseen!)
When the topic turned to her new house, Qin Luoyi took out her own design drawings for Feng Fei to see.
The area is not large, and the cave where she cultivates naturally cannot be as luxurious as that of her senior brother.
It's only about 100 square meters in size, imitating the style of a traditional courtyard house. The surrounding area is surrounded by houses, with a living room, a practice room, a bedroom, and a kitchen... She also specially set aside a study, where she can plant some flowers and grasses in the middle of the empty space. Later, she can put a recliner there, and in the summer, she can bask in the sun, which is quite pleasant.
"You stuffed me with so much money, and you're just going to build a house this big?" Feng Fei Liu looked at it and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and smile.
"Hmm, is it too small?" Qin Luoyi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled somewhat awkwardly: "I live alone, and if I build it too big, it's not very useful. As for building houses, I don't understand anything about it. Everything depends on Master Brother, if the silver note is not enough, please let me know."
These silver tickets were exchanged for silver by her and Jian Yuyan when they followed their master to the Xiao Yao Sect.
The silver notes on the mainland of Sheng Long, naturally can't be used in this Penglai Fairy Island, so before coming, she exchanged all the silver notes on her body for gold and silver. Fortunately, her storage space was large enough, otherwise it would not have been possible to install them at all.
Feng Fei Liu burst out laughing: "With that amount of money, you can build such a small house, no need to use jade or stone, just using silver would be enough."
"Never mind, I don't like the house built by Yinzixiu." Qin Luoyi tilted her head, rested her chin on her hand and thought for a moment, then shook her head firmly.
Her skin was as white and smooth as alabaster, tender to the touch like a petal that could be broken by a mere touch of the finger, set off by her cherry lips, truly like a heavenly princess.
Duanmu Changqing gazed at her, his deep and dark eyes like a tranquil pool of water, calm but unfathomable. His pupils seemed to be swirling with an otherworldly light, making Qin Luoyi appear even more lovely, entrancing him deeply.
Feng Fei Liu couldn't help but laugh out loud again, his peach blossom eyes narrowing slightly as a rich smile spread across his exquisite and unparalleled face. His fingers unconsciously rotated the wine cup in his hand before he drained it in one gulp.
……
The next day, early in the morning, Qin Luo came to the outside of the Misty Forest again. The Misty Forest was still shrouded in a thick white fog, and nothing inside could be seen.
After staying for a long time, she left again. Although she had given Jian Yu Yan many talismans and elixirs, since no one who had seen him came out, she was really worried.
Returned to the cave just in time for cultivation, but found that Master Big Brother was standing in the pavilion, with a slender figure, jade tree in the wind, really like a fairy.
This man is really endearing.
Qin Luoyi couldn't help but secretly praise him in her heart, and smiled as she walked up: "Big Brother Master." She was very curious, what was Big Brother Master doing running over here so early.
But out of curiosity, she didn't ask, after all, this was the senior brother's cave, and she was just a guest.
Feng Fei turned around and smiled: "The person who is going to repair the Dongfu has arrived, bring your drawings with you, and tell them how to repair it."
"So soon?" Qin Luo Yi heard this and her phoenix eyes lit up: "Great, Master Brother's efficiency is indeed high, the blueprint is on me, let's go now."
Feng Fei nodded, and the two quickly arrived at the middle of the mountain.
"Master Feng, Master Qin."
On the halfway up the mountain, beside the ruined cave mansion, stood a dozen or so young men. Seeing them arrive together, they immediately smiled and stepped forward to pay their respects.
Although they had never met Qin Luoyi before, they already knew in advance that it was to build a cave for the new disciple of the sect leader, so when they saw Qin Luoyi following Feng Feixiao, they knew that this must be Master Qin.
After chatting for a while, Qin Luoyi finally knew that these people were all outer disciples of the Piaomiao Sect. Apart from cultivating, they were also very skilled at building houses. In the Piaomiao Sect, if something new needed to be built, it was usually them who took action.
She took out the drawings and roughly explained them. These people understood her meaning, took the drawings to discuss for a while, and then started digging and working.
The gravel on the ground had been cleaned up before they arrived, and the materials for building houses were all stored in storage rings. When something was needed, it could be taken out directly, which was very convenient. Moreover, each of them had a strong spiritual power, and their movements were extremely fast when doing things.
Qin Luo Yi secretly calculated in her heart that at their current speed, it was likely that within a month's time, her cave would be completed.
Feng Fei Liu didn't leave, he stood beside Qin Luo Yi, with his hands behind him, leisurely watching the busy crowd, while smiling and talking to her, also asking her many things about the Holy Dragon Continent.
As for these things, Qin Luoyi naturally knew everything and spoke without reservation. Taking the opportunity, she also asked a lot about Peng Lai Xian Island and Tian Xuan Continent.
Liu Qingcheng arrived at Second Master's cave mansion to look for Eldest Master, but Second Master's cave mansion was tightly closed... Not only was Eldest Master not there, but Second Master was also nowhere to be found.
She was originally a bit disappointed, but the noise of knocking in the distance startled her, and she rode the divine rainbow to take a look.
Not yet close, I saw Qin Luo Yi and Da Shixiong standing shoulder to shoulder, very close together. Da Shixiong's handsome face was full of smiles, looking extremely joyful. Qin Luo Yi's lips also had an uncontrollable smile, the two occasionally turning their heads to talk to each other.
Liu Qingcheng's face changed in an instant, and a jealous flame danced in her enchanting black eyes... After taking a few deep breaths, she forced a smile and walked up with a slightly stiff expression.
