"In the future, when the battle for revenge becomes more intense, I'm afraid we won't have the opportunity to come here in person to purchase supplies."

Hearing this, Baral couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't worry so much, Bashar. We didn't intend to get out of this revenge alive, right? No matter how hard it is, it won't be more painful than before."

"Besides, this time we came here on a merchant ship through the connections of the old captain. Doesn't this also prove that there are still people willing to help us?"

"Perhaps, we can find a way to get in touch with some chambers of commerce, sell the spoils we snatched from the God King's Relics through them, and then buy weapons, medicines and food."

"That's a good idea." Bashar smiled and seemed to remember something: "Now that you mention it, I remember that there seems to be another family in Xumi City called, um, Humayi. Their master seems to have a good relationship with the leader."

"Even that little girl Dishia and her 'Lion of Blazing Mane' have been entrusted to that person by the leader. If you have a chance, you can try to follow his path."

"As for weapons, let's go and see if we can buy them in the next two days. If that doesn't work..." Bashar's expression became more and more serious, and his tone became more and more helpless: "We can only think of a way to get through the thirty-man group. I think there should be many people in Xumi City who are willing to make some extra money."

"Well, if possible, I really don't want to involve Dixia in this matter."

"Yes!"

"Oh, by the way, I did buy some medicines this time that might be good. If the weapons purchase fails, we can buy some more medicines first. Anyway, the weapons in the group can make do with some, and we can still hold out for a while."

"Oh? Take it out and let me see it?"

Not knowing the story of his first customer, Yu Qi sat at the counter, his chin in his hand, watching Qiqi interacting with Xiao Manju, his eyes inadvertently glancing at the small backpack beside him.

The bamboo backpack was filled with various medicinal herbs. The fresh leaves were faintly mottled with traces of dew. It was obvious that these were just picked by Qiqi from the mountain.

If you look closely, you can also find that there are traces of dew on Qiqi's clothes, but it is obvious that they have been roughly processed by her ice elemental power, so they are basically invisible.

"Qiqi, did you just come back from collecting herbs in the mountains?"

"Yeah." Qiqi nodded her head imperceptibly and said softly, "I've been feeling well these past two days, so I want to collect more herbs and bring them back."

"Going to collect herbs so early?"

Although he knew that Qiqi, as a zombie, probably had no so-called physical limit, Yu Qi still couldn't help asking, "I see that many medicinal herbs should grow on high mountains, right? Won't you get tired climbing the mountain so early?"

"No, in the morning." Shaking her head, Qiqi put down the empty cup in her hand, and gently touched the chicken in her arms: "The day before yesterday, I went there at night. It was hot during the day and I didn't like it. I hid in the cave.

I picked some more last night and came back this morning."

"Uh? You spent two days in the wild?" Looking at Qiqi with some surprise, Yu Qi couldn't help but ask, "Does Mr. Bai know that you did this?"

"I collect herbs frequently. Mr. Bai, I don't care."

"..." Yu Qi understood what Qiqi meant. Obviously, as a herbalist, she often wandered in the wild for days on end. Bai Zhu was probably used to it a long time ago.

"This is really..."

Chapter 77: Sleepy Alicia (serious headache)

"This is really..." Shaking his head helplessly, Yu Qi raised his hand to refill Qiqi's cup of Zhuoyin Spring water and continued to ask: "Will you not encounter danger in the wild? I remember that although there are relatively few monsters in Tianheng Mountain, there are still some monsters such as hillmen and slimes, right?"

Moreover, although Keqing recently led the Thousand Rocks Army to clear out the treasure-stealing groups around Liyue Harbor, no one can guarantee that there are no remaining treasure-stealing groups in the huge Tianheng Mountain.

With Qiqi's slow temperament, although she cannot be said to be unresponsive, she is still not very sensitive to hostility.

Monsters like the Hillocks were fine. Although she was not very intelligent, she could still distinguish between friend and foe. She just had to be careful not to be ambushed by the Archer Hillocks or Hillock Mages. But the Treasure Stealers...

If someone deliberately disguised himself as a passerby to deceive Qiqi, it would be difficult for her to react before the danger came.

Although I know that Qiqi has lived in Bubulu for so many years and has been a herbalist for so many years, she must have her own ways to deal with the dangers in the wild.

But when he thought about such a petite girl having to face those ferocious monsters and cunning treasure-stealing groups, Yu Qi couldn't help but worry for her in his heart.

Facing Yu Qi's worry, Qi Qi slowly looked up at him, thought for a moment, carefully put down the cup in her hand, and then reached out to touch the Eye of the Ice Element God hanging on her hat.

With a flicker of light, a small-looking one-handed sword appeared in Qiqi's hand.

"Qiqi, you have the Eye of God. Qiqi is very strong! You can't defeat the monsters."

Looking at the one-handed sword in Qiqi's hand with some surprise, Yu Qi could feel the powerful aura on the sword, just like the Xia Li Mie Chen sword that Xiangling had shown him before.

In the words of Teyvat, what Qiqi was using was a rare legendary weapon in the world.

"That's reassuring."

"Come to think of it, how many years has Qiqi been working as a herbalist in Bubulu?"

"A few years, a few years..."

This question seemed to stump Qiqi. She blinked in confusion, looked down at her palms, and counted on her fingers for a long time before shaking her head in confusion: "Sorry, Qiqi, I don't remember!"

The soft voice with a hint of loss was clearly caught by Yu Qi, who was secretly relieved in his heart.

Compared to her indifference in the past two days, Qiqi's emotions are now obviously richer. At least she is gradually able to show some emotions in her heart. This just proves that Yu Qi's act of feeding her the Zhuoyin Spring water is not in vain.

"It's okay." Yu Qi raised his hand and gently rubbed Qiqi's little head. He carefully avoided the location of the talisman paper, and his fingertips ran across the soft silver-purple short hair. He comforted her softly: "It doesn't matter if you can't remember. I just asked casually. Don't mind it."

"Later, when we find a way to restore your sanity, you will be able to recall these memories again."

"Well, Qiqi, believe Mr. Yu." The petite hand was raised, and carefully held the hand that Yu Qi pressed on her head. Seeing that he did not show any resistance, Qiqi's face showed a slight smile of joy, which was imperceptible but real.

A cool feeling came from his palm, with a hint of chill. Of course, Yu Qi didn't care about it. What surprised him was that Qiqi's fingers were not stiff, but instead had a soft touch like a living person.

The slender and tender ten fingers were exceptionally white, and the dark fingertips were less bruised than a few days ago.

Just when Yu Qi's eyes fell on Qiqi's fingers, a lazy and teasing voice suddenly sounded from the second floor of the shop.

"Oh my, boss, I've only been away for a while, why are you already bullying Qiqi? A friendly reminder from Alicia, attacking a little girl is against the law no matter what world you are in!"

"..." Yu Qi retracted his hand without a word. He looked back at the pink girl lying on the railing on the second floor with an expressionless face and complained: "You are so energetic just after waking up, right?! Be careful or I will teach you a good lesson tonight and let you know what it means to work day and night!"

"Huh? No way!" Hearing the meaning behind Yu Qi's words, a blush crossed Alicia's face. She suddenly stood up and jumped down from the second floor, then angrily raised her hand and knocked on Yu Qi's forehead.

"Boss, you shouldn't say such dirty words in front of a lady! If you do that again, I will be angry!"

"You were the one who brought up the topic first." Yu Qi suppressed the urge to roll his eyes at her. Knowing that he had said something inappropriate, he still couldn't help but mutter.

After a little fight, Yu Qi sat back behind the counter and looked at Alicia, who was having a lot of fun, holding Qiqi in one hand and Manqiu in the other, poking and touching on the left and right, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing that Qiqi had no intention of resisting and seemed to be particularly close to Ailixia, Yu Qi did not speak to stop her behavior. He calmed down and asked in a serious tone: "What happened to you before? How come you were so sleepy that you fell asleep directly?"

If Yu Qi had not clearly noticed that there was nothing wrong with Alicia and she had just fallen asleep because she was a little sleepy, how could he have sat so peacefully until now?

He had already thought of a way to rescue people. If he couldn't handle it himself, he would go to Bai Shu. If Bai Shu couldn't handle it, he would go to Zhongli. Anyway, the most dangerous consequence would be that Zhongli or the Rock King would take advantage of the situation. Compared to Alicia, Yu Qi didn't care about other things he had.

"So..." With a strange look on her face, Alysia glanced at the purple ball hanging around Yu Qi's neck, then turned her head and muttered, "It's all because of you, the boss, who's causing trouble everywhere."

"If I wasn't worried about your safety, would I have gotten into that state? I'm not a spiritual fusion warrior like Su and Aponia."

"Ah?" Yu Qi, who didn't hear the second half of Alysia's words, was a little confused. He scratched his head and asked in confusion: "I, am in trouble again? Is that true?"

"Well, boss, you will know it later." Without saying much, Alicia couldn't help but glance at the 'Heart of Thunder Wolf' on Yu Qi's neck with a little desire.

How should I put it? It's just like a kid who sees a toy he likes, he wants it but is too embarrassed to ask for it.

"However, this trouble is good. Oh, I didn't expect that although he looks similar to Dr. Mei, his personality would be so different. When I have the chance in the future, I must get closer to him."

Fortunately, Yu Qi was frowning and thinking about what Alicia meant when she said that he was in trouble again, so he didn't notice her gaze, otherwise he would have noticed some clues.

But when he raised his head, Alicia had already withdrawn her gaze and her expression became natural again.

"Okay, boss, stop thinking about it. It's getting late. We should eat. We agreed to have barbecue today!"

Yu Qi was interrupted by Alicia's words. He scratched his head and put the matter aside for the time being. After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, then should we go out to eat? Or should we just grill it at home?"

He still has some stock of various meats, and if he goes to the market to buy some vegetables, it shouldn't be too much trouble to grill the meat himself.

"Of course I do it at home." With her eyes brightened, Alicia answered without hesitation and licked her lips.

Even a pure and innocent beautiful girl can be greedy sometimes, right?~

"Okay then." Nodding, Yu Qi stood up and casually said, "I'll go get a grill first, Alicia, go buy some vegetables."

"Oh, by the way, Qiqi, please stay and have a quick meal with us."

"..." Hearing this, Qiqi lowered her head in silence and said in a low voice: "Qiqi, I don't have a sense of taste, so I can't taste it."

The words were as calm as usual, but Yu Qi could still hear a hint of depression in her voice.

"Oh, sorry, I was careless."

"It's okay, Qiqi, I'm used to it." Qiqi gently struggled to break free from Alicia's arms, sat on a small stool, looked up at Yu Qi, and there was no expression on her face - after all, now she might not even feel what sadness was.

"Qiqi, let's go back first. Mr. Bai is still waiting for Qiqi. Please send herbal medicine to him!"

Seeing Qiqi picking up the small bamboo basket on the ground and walking out of the shop, Yu Qi and Ailxia looked at each other, and then decisively reached out to stop Qiqi.

"Qiqi, wait a moment."

"Ah?!" Qiqi looked up in confusion and looked at Yu Qi in confusion: "Mr. Yu, is there anything else?"

"Well, can you wait here for a while to get rid of Qiqi? Just a short while will do."

"Okay." Nodding, Qiqi put down the backpack. Although she didn't know what Yu Qi was going to do, since he had asked, Qiqi would not refuse his request.

After all, over the years, Yu Qi is the only person who has made her feel what "taste" is again. For Qiqi, Yu Qi means a lot in her heart.

He is one of the few people who can remember names completely without the need for a diary.

Looking at Qiqi sitting back on the small stool, Yu Qi whispered to Alicia to go buy vegetables first, and then asked Qiqi to help look after the store.

"If there are customers coming, Qiqi, you can tell them that the store will be closed at noon, and if they need anything, they can come back at 2 pm."

"Afternoon, two o'clock. Okay, Qiqi remembers it."

Seeing Qiqi's serious expression while holding Manjiu, Yu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and walked into the cave.

Picking up the rice bought yesterday, Yu Qi washed it several times, then carefully poured it into the alchemy boiler, and then took a can of turbid Yin spring water and added it in.

"Hopefully, it will work~" Looking at the dancing flames under the boiler, Yu Qi murmured softly, and did not notice the flash of lightning on the surface of the Thunder Wolf Heart on his neck.

Chapter 78: Little brother, don't you want to have a drink?

"Squeak~" The sharp sound of steam explosion continued to ring out. Yu Qi looked at the rice with thick steam in the boiler in front of him, raised his hand and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"I managed it, luckily it wasn't too difficult."

Looking up at the three or four scrapped boilers beside him, and the rice in them that was either dark in color or smelled like feet, Yu Qi carefully put away the pot of semi-finished product.

Turning around and walking out of the red building, Alicia had already set up a simple barbecue grill with Qiqi in the cave. While Qiqi was driving and stroking the barbarians, she was cutting the meat in her hand out of boredom.

The originally neatly cut meat was cut into pieces by her, and the pieces of meat of different sizes were piled in a bowl on the side, waiting to be grilled.

In addition, there were several dishes that had been prepared improvisationally. If it weren’t for the alchemical products keeping them warm, they would have probably gone cold long ago.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Alicia raised her eyes lazily and complained: "Boss, you finally came out. We agreed to have lunch, but it's already 4:30 in the afternoon. Why don't you wait a little longer and wait until 6 o'clock for dinner?"

Although she said so, there was no dissatisfaction on Alicia's face. Instead, she looked at the boiler in Yu Qi's hands with some anticipation.

"How's it going? Was it successful?"

When she came back from shopping for groceries, she saw Yu Qi hunched over the boiler, cooking. After a moment's thought, Alicia naturally understood his plan.

Now that I see Yu Qi coming out, I naturally feel a little excited and a little nervous.

After all, if it fails, then...

Shaking his head in the face of Alicia's disappointed gaze, Yu Qi, who looked a little pale, sighed: "It is still too difficult for me to analyze the existence of the turbid Yin spring water. At least I have to wait until I have mastered the alchemy of the two worlds before I can refine it perfectly."

In fact, Yu Qi had originally planned to wait until he had made some progress in alchemy before analyzing the Zhuo Yin Spring water. However, when he saw Qi Qi's appearance today, he impulsively decided to try to refine the Zhuo Yin Spring water.

And the result was as expected. Even with the help of the Eye of Truth, Yu Qi's final achievement was only a small pot of rice in his hand. It was not even a success.

"But it's not a failure."

Before Alysia could react, Yu Qi waved to Qiqi beside him and said, "Qiqi, come and eat."

"Ah?" Qiqi raised her head from the soft bodies of the barbarians, looked at Yu Qi, was silent for a moment, and nodded: "Oh, Qiqi, I'll be right there."

Although she knew that she had no sense of taste and even delicious food would taste like chewing wax, Qiqi was indeed touched when she saw Yu Qi and the others trying so hard to cook for her.

Running over and sitting on a small stool, Qiqi looked at the plates of steaming dishes on the table. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Yu Qi placing the boiler in front of her.
