Chapter 217: Sacrifice to the Beast God (17)
Of course Xiao Cheng knew that there was another person here with Mo Ci, so he nodded immediately and spoke.
"Then Qinghui, you should pack up now. We will set off in half an hour."
"Or, how about I help you clean up?"
The temptation hidden in these words remained unchanged, and Mo Ci understood it.
Looking at Xiao Cheng again, there was nothing shameful in their room, but he had an embarrassed look on his face.
Sure enough, the next second Xiao Cheng spoke again.
"If Qinghui is embarrassed, then forget it. I just thought that since we are friends, it is only natural for us to help each other. It is Qinghui who is embarrassed."
Mo Ci seemed to have made up his mind now.
"Xiao Cheng, you're worrying too much. It's a bit inappropriate to just ask you to help me clean up."
"How can you say that? We're friends. How can we use the word 'property' when it comes to matters between friends?"
Xiao Cheng continued to attack, and Mo Ci had no choice but to respond.
"Well, thank you for your help."
Xiao Cheng waved his hand. "What's the big deal? Why are you saying that again? Come on, if you need to pack up your things, just tell me."
As he spoke, Xiao Cheng had already walked towards Mo Ci's room, looking very warm-hearted.
Mo Ci saw it all and thought to himself that it was a good thing that he had refined a pill that could retract their ears and tails, otherwise, with Xiao Cheng's attitude.
Sooner or later, their secret will be discovered by Xiao Cheng.
Mo Ci narrowed his eyes and quickened his pace to catch up.
As for Xiao Cheng, he looked around the entire room as soon as they met.
Seeing Mo Ci coming, he also started to pack up with a smile.
There is actually nothing else here. The only valuable things are the pills that Mo Ci placed on the table.
They were all refined during this period. Xiao Cheng was a little surprised when he saw them.
After all, Xiao Cheng is from the Treasure Pavilion, and he knows everything about rare treasures.
As for things like elixirs, I naturally know something about them.
Now, looking at these jade bottles containing elixirs, he also knew that the elixirs in them were not some low-quality stuff.
"Haha, Qinghui, what you put in here, isn't it pills?"
Xiao Cheng pretended to clean the table, then picked up one of the bottles and waved it towards Mo Ci.
Mo Ci nodded, "It is indeed a pill."
Pill? !
There was a hint of sharpness in Xiao Cheng's eyes, and he continued.
"Did Qinghui make it himself? This kind of bottle for medicine is rarely seen here."
Mo Ci: "Well, I have dabbled in alchemy. Sorry to show off my skills."
Showing embarrassment?
Even through the jade bottle, Xiao Cheng could tell that the quality of the elixir inside was definitely not low.
Looking at Mo Ci's calm attitude, in Xiao Cheng's heart, Mo Ci's weight became much heavier.
"Qinghui, I know a lot about elixirs. If you don't mind, how about I help you take a look at these?"
Mo Ci nodded nonchalantly, "Okay."
While packing up his few belongings, he also called out to Xuan Sang in the next room.
"Xuan Sang, pack your things. We'll leave here and go to Wanbao Pavilion."
Xuan Sang was still in the room, curiously looking at his current appearance. His ears and tail were gone, so he was naturally curious.
Although after coming here, he saw that no one had ears and tails like his, he had long been accustomed to it.
But whether others have it or not is their own business. If your own ears and tails are gone, that is another matter entirely.
He was very surprised at the moment. When he heard Mo Ci's call, although he was not sure what Mo Ci was going to do, he still responded obediently and started to clean up.
On this side, Xiao Cheng opened the jade bottle and looked at the pills inside, with more and more surprise in his eyes.
Only after he had finished looking at all the pills did he look at Mo Ci with a complicated expression.
"With Qinghui's alchemy skills, he shouldn't be short of spirit stones. What's more, he's using top-grade spirit stones to buy information from me."
This was a naked suspicion. Xiao Cheng looked at Mo Ci with a sharp gaze, but Mo Ci remained calm.
"The situation compels me, Xiao Cheng. This is my personal matter."
Since Mo Ci said so, Xiao Cheng could only let it go and not mention anything else, only talking about this pill.
In Xiao Cheng's opinion, these pills are of top quality.
If it were auctioned at Wanbao Pavilion, it would definitely fetch a very high price. I also bought some from Mo Ci.
Half an hour passed quickly, and Mo Ci took the packed Xuan Sang and got on the Zhenxiu Pavilion's carriage with Xiao Cheng.
It is called a horse-drawn carriage, but in fact it is pulled by a monster beast, which is at least five times faster than a horse.
There are also runes engraved on this carriage to stabilize the environment inside the carriage to prevent it from shaking too fast.
After getting into the carriage, Mo Ci felt the carriage of this world, and then looked at Xiao Cheng, whose eyes were always on him. He met Xiao Cheng's gaze.
"Xiao Cheng, is there anything wrong with me? You've been staring at me since you got on the carriage."
Xiao Cheng shook his head. "I'm just curious where Qinghui comes from. I really admire your alchemy skills."
After saying that, as if worried that Mo Ci would think too much, he continued.
"Qinghui also knows that I am the manager of the Treasure Pavilion and I know a lot about some news."
“But I know very little about people like Qinghui, so I habitually want to explore them.”
"Please forgive me, Qinghui."
Xiao Cheng's words were a mixture of truth and falsehood, making it difficult to distinguish. Mo Ci just smiled.
"It's okay, I understand."
"As for where I came from and what kind of person I am, Xiao Cheng, why don't you learn more slowly?"
Xiao Cheng's pupils dilated slightly, and then he also started laughing and humming.
"That's right."
Immediately afterwards, the two began another discussion. In the end, they were just testing each other and finally reached Wanbao Pavilion.
The carriage stopped, Xiao Cheng also shut his mouth, and was the first to get off the carriage.
When no one was paying attention, he glanced at a distance not far away. Someone nodded at him, and then Xiao Cheng looked away.
Mo Ci and Xuan Sang also got off the carriage, both still wearing loose black robes to cover their faces.
But when they got off the carriage, a strong wind blew from somewhere and blew away their black robes.
The hoodie fell off, revealing the faces of the two people.
Almost the moment the wind blew over, Mo Ci noticed the inquiry flashing in Xiao Cheng's eyes.
It's easy to imagine that the strange wind is closely related to Xiao Cheng.
Fortunately, he prepared for the worst.
At this time, the hoodies were blown off, and Mo Ci and Xuan Sang looked like ordinary people, which made Xiao Cheng disappointed for a moment.
But he quickly regained his composure and spoke.
"I don't know where the wind came from, but I finally got to see Qinghui's true face. You look so good, why bother hiding it?"
Mo Ci reached out and put his hoodie back on while replying.
“When you walk outside, you should be careful and get used to it.”
As he spoke, Mo Ci also got off the carriage, took Xuan Sang and followed Xiao Cheng into the Wanbao Pavilion.
However, the moment the hoodie on Mo Ci's head fell off, someone in the distance saw his appearance.
Because this time the elixir is mainly used to tuck away the tail and ears, the change in appearance is not significant.
So the other person saw at a glance his face, which was extremely similar to the person in the painting, and hurriedly chased after him.
However, the process of entering Wanbao Pavilion was cumbersome, and by the time he entered, they were nowhere to be seen.
In desperation, the man had to endure it and simply stayed in Wanbao Pavilion.
Mo Ci and Xuan Sang, holding the invitation given by Xiao Cheng, chose another box to sit down.
Xiao Cheng did not try to keep the two of them. After all, Xiao Cheng himself had things to do, and he couldn't do it in front of Mo Ci.
The two sides hit it off immediately and went into their respective private rooms. When there were only two of them left, Xuan Sang came up to Mo Ci and said something.
"Sir, I smell a familiar smell, like the smell of the place where I lived before."
taste?
Does this mean that someone has discovered them?
Is this the ancestor Li Yan mentioned? He didn't know how powerful the other party was, and whether he could defeat him.
Thinking about it, Mo Ci looked at Xuan Sang, "Don't worry."
