Hearing this, a hint of impatience flashed in the girl's eyes.
"If she's been poisoned and there's no cure, then just wait for her to die. Why bother trying to save her?"
Chen Yin was suddenly speechless.
...Isn't the thinking process of this great witch different from that of ordinary people?
That's right. Her maid's way of thinking is different. It's up to her master now.
Even so, Chen Yin still bowed respectfully: "Please give it a try, Great Witch."
The girl was silent for a moment, then she said casually: "Tell me about it."
"It is said that it is a poisonous weed called Heguancao, which can cause hallucinations and happiness in people, but it is extremely addictive. Once you become addicted, the poison will take effect and life will be worse than death. There is no medicine to cure it."
When she heard about the widower grass, a gleam of wonder flashed in the girl's eyes: "Is it the widower grass again?"
"Are you in the same group as that man from a few months ago?"
Chen Yin was also stunned for a moment: "The Great Witch knows the whereabouts of our friend?"
"hehe."
The girl covered her mouth and giggled, her smile holding a hint of weirdness.
"That guy is dead. I threw his body out to feed the poisonous insects."
Chen Yin's smile gradually cooled.
"People from the Central Plains are all disgusting. That guy actually dared to yell in front of the Wuzu stone statue, begging me to save his daughter."
The girl said lightly, as if she had crushed an ant: "I can't save his daughter. But I can send him and his daughter on their journey together."
Hearing this, Chen Yin's expression turned completely cold.
"Is what you said true?" He asked slowly with clear eyes.
"I just killed a rude barbarian. What can I lie to you about?" The girl still pouted nonchalantly.
Chen Yin took a deep breath and was about to unsheathe his Changming Sword when suddenly a childish and clear voice sounded beside the girl:
"Eh? Didn't the Great Miko kill that man? Why did you lie to them?"
Chen Yin was stunned for a moment, and the chief witch was also stunned for a moment, and then immediately glared at the person next to her in shame and anger.
"You little bitch! What are you talking about? That man died a long time ago!"
"But didn't the chief witch tell Lian'er to lock him up?"
Lian'er blinked her big innocent eyes and tilted her head in confusion: "Lian'er didn't slack off this time. Someone brought him food every day."
"you--"
The chief witch's fingers were shaking with anger, but she finally forced herself to suppress her anger.
…She was regretting. How unlucky she was to have met such a stupid maid.
This is good. I want to give this group of people a warning, but now I have no chance.
She pouted sullenly and said casually:
"Even if he's not dead, he's probably been bitten half to death by poisonous insects. If you want to save him, you have to at least--"
"No way! He has almost eaten all the meat in the village and has grown very strong."
Lian'er's voice sounded again at an inopportune time.
Crack. Cracks appeared on the armrest of the chair under the palm of the great witch.
Veins also appeared on her forehead and her lips were twitching.
Lian Er still looked at the great witch who was glaring at her with an innocent look on her face, and said aggrievedly:
"Yes, it was you, the Great Witch, who told me not to let him starve to death. He said that if he didn't eat five pounds of meat a day, he would starve to death, so Lian'er had to run around to find food for him."
"There wasn't much food in the village to begin with, and Lian'er even gave him her own flesh to eat. Look at her, Great Witch, she's become so skinny from hunger."
After saying this, Lian'er pouted pitifully, as if she had also been wronged.
The Great Miko took a deep breath.
...Can't be angry. Can't be angry.
There are so many people here right now, so pay attention to your personal image and don’t get angry.
After a long while, she said with a sullen face: "...Anyway, I have detained that guy."
"If you want to save people, show your sincerity."
After Lian'er spoke, Chen Yin put the sword back.
He finally figured it out.
The great witch in front of me is actually still just a shy and socially anxious little girl.
Faced with so many people coming to Wuxuan Cave, she tried to exert the majesty and momentum of a faction in order to put pressure on Chen Yin and others to extort benefits.
...In the end, everything was ruined by his own stupid maid.
However, as long as he knew that Ye Lie was fine, Chen Yin didn't mind discussing the benefits with the chief witch.
"I wonder if the Great Witch needs anything?"
Chen Yin asked tentatively: "Spiritual stones? Pills? Secret manuals of martial arts?"
"What use are those things to me?"
The chief witch frowned and said, "Our Wuxuan Cave has always been isolated from the outside world, so we naturally cannot use things like spirit stones."
"However, since you people from the Central Plains only have spirit stones to offer, if the quantity is large, I can accept it reluctantly..."
The great witch’s plan was very clear.
If you ask for a high price, you will be able to pay back the low price. If you put on a high attitude first, you can ask for a reasonable price.
How much you can bet depends on your ability.
So when Chen Yin asked, "How much does the witch need?", the witch pretended to be casual and said:
"Then let's take a hundred thousand to redeem him first. As for rescuing the girl, we'll do it separately..."
She hadn't even finished her words.
The next moment, rich spiritual energy surged throughout the hall.
The chief witch looked at the mountain-like sacks of spirit stones in front of her in astonishment, and finally revealed an expression of doubt about her life.
"One hundred thousand is one hundred thousand. Just consider it as a friend of the Jiaotong University witch." Chen Yin said with a relaxed look.
……no.
One hundred thousand spirit stones. One hundred thousand.
Is it because I haven't been out of the Shiwan Mountains for too long, and have prices outside already inflated to this extent?
Or are these guys really so rich that they treat 100,000 as nothing and just throw it away?
For a moment, the chief witch doubted whether she had shouted too low.
But one hundred thousand is really not a small amount. The annual expenditure of a large sect is probably about this amount.
Is there some way to fake spiritual stones out there?
While thinking, the chief witch changed her words again: "Wait, wait, let me think about it. Our Wuxuan Cave has always been isolated from the outside world. We can't spend so many spirit stones, so we will still lose money."
"It's not as cost-effective as elixirs. If there are high-quality elixirs for cultivation or healing, I can consider it--"
"Let me think about it..." She couldn't even hear herself by the end of her voice.
Because next to the hill made of spiritual stones, another hill appeared.
The rich medicinal aroma instantly filled the hall, making everyone feel refreshed as soon as they smelled it.
"Five thousand bottles of cultivation pills, five thousand bottles of healing pills, all of them are top quality."
Chen Yin still had a calm and relaxed expression on his face: "I wonder if you have any other requests, Great Witch?"
"what……"
The chief witch opened her mouth and then slowly closed it.
"That's all for now."
She was a little scared. What if she started talking about weapons and skills again? This guy would throw two more hills at her.
Today, this hall is completely blocked.
Chen Yin was also very happy at this time.
In all these years of fighting, we have never fought a war that resulted in such a rich outcome.
Spirit stone? Pill?
Take whatever you want, as much as you want.
Anyway, you can take whatever you want from the system mall. You can't spend all the money.
Poor children are used to being poor, and it is rare for them to experience the feeling of being rich.
...That feeling is really refreshing.
"Since the Great Miko is satisfied, could you please tell me the whereabouts of my friend?"
The chief witch was brought back to her senses by Chen Yin's voice. She almost drooled and immediately coughed lightly, pretending to be serious.
"Ahem, Lian'er, you take them there."
Lian'er nodded obediently, then briskly left the hall with Chen Yin and others.
As their figures intertwined, Chen Yin's peripheral vision met with the masked man again.
The masked man looked at him quietly without saying a word.
Chen Yin just glanced at him briefly and passed by.
(Second update. The third update will be posted when it is finished in the early morning.)
(I'm going to eat something first... I haven't eaten since this afternoon.)
182. Classic Dual Thread
As soon as Chen Yin and others left the hall, the chief witch could no longer hold back.
"Oh my god... so many spirit stones and pills? They are all real!"
With shining eyes, she dived into the two hills, grabbing handfuls left and right excitedly, just like a little girl out shopping.
The masked man looked at her silently.
"Great Witch, how have you thought about what happened before?"
"Ah, what's the matter?"
The chief witch was still immersed in the joy of getting rich, and only finally remembered it after being reminded by the masked man.
"Oh, you mean the crumbs of heaven."
"I've melted." She said casually, not even bothering to raise her head.
The masked man was speechless, and nodded slowly after a moment: "Congratulations, Great Witch. You can now become one of us--"
"It's melted."
The chief witch suddenly changed the subject: "But I didn't say I had to join your Kami."
The masked man fell silent again.
"I've looked it up. There is no mistake in the records of the Heavenly Dao Dust and the classics. If you want to perfect the body of the Holy Child, you must have the Heavenly Dao Dust."
"But that is our own business in Wuxuan Cave." The eyes of the great witch turned indifferent. "Your God only provided a clue to the Heavenly Dao at most. I took the thing out of the secret realm with great effort."
"That is, I deserve it."
"As for whether or not to join your God..."
She looked at him again.
The masked man was silent for a while and then sighed slowly.
