Moving Time And Being the General's Daughter
meet Dai langfei
the southern residence ,
after yesterday's show , today leng qiulu is busy understanding the income report from her mother's shop, the store's income is getting lower years .so today she will see this store shop .
his mother has a lot of shops, there are 4 in the city center and each 2 in 4 directions.His mother also has 2 restaurants in the city center.This will be a long journey . therefore he will check the store shop in the city center more and if , only when not busy later he will check the store in the other 4 corners .
" the xiaoyun ."
" yes lady, do you need anything ?"
" no, I just wanted to take you with me to see my mom's downtown store ."
" but lady why do we have to see this shop ."
" from this report the store's earnings are getting lower and lower ', I want to make sure this ."
" well miss I will prepare the clothes for you." then xiaoyun pamit to take the leng qiulu clothes .after xiaoyun went leng qiulu enter into the 7 state of pagoda . there he saw xiaonu sweeping the page as usual .
" hi xiaonu, what are you doing." asked leng qiulu basah basasi .
" can't you see ', it's obvious I'm sweeping page ."
there was a resentful tone in his voice , what was with this little spirit . ah forget it , today leng qiulu there is more important business .he entered into the 7 state of the pagoda because he wanted to take some herbs a thousand years old, he wanted to see what would happen if these herbal herbs were auctioned off , it could be as big as what the enthusiasm of the auction participant later , but it will do later , after he saw the store .
after picking herbs a thousand years old, leng qiulu stored the herbs into the dragon blood ring and returned to the outside world, coinciding with the moment leng qiulu opened her eyes , xiaoyun entered the room in leng qiulu clothes .
" miss I've prepared your clothes. I'll help you dress and apply your makeup." xiaoyun said in a nod by leng qiulu .
the clothes were two robes, one robe inside was pink , and one more red outer robe there is a embroidery peony flower on the bottom of this outfit makes a bold but fresh impression on the self leng qiulu , xiaoyun then styled leng qiulu's hair by pinning the two sides of leng qiulu's hair back to form a butterfly and he united it with a jade hairpin carved with a lotus flower .
he then put a thin powder on the face of leng qiulu. actually he wanted thicker than this. but leng qiulu not too like the decoration that is too thick , after styling hair and applying leng qiulu makeup, xiaoyun's work was completed .now the look of leng qiulu is like a wise but mysterious queen .
finally leng qiulu was ready. today he will use the palanquin of the general's residence because using an official vehicle like this people will themselves give way because they are afraid to isolate people from the big residence , moreover, the palanquin from the general's residence has a logo that was bestowed by the emperor .
so far the brave use of this stretcher is concubine wei and leng rushua, whereas concubines and their children are not allowed to ride the official stretcher from such a residence . but since no one rebuked them, they became accustomed and no longer enforced this rule .
during the trip leng qiulu enjoyed it by re-reading the court report of her mother's shop, it was indeed a good ride on this official stretcher.until now no one dared to block the path of the stretcher .
but before long the stretcher stopped and then there was a commotion in front of , leng qiulu called the guard .
" what's up ahead why this stretcher doesn't move ."
" in answer to princess , there was a poor young man who begged an alchemist to refine a pill for him but the money was less to pay the alchemist ."
" oh so, ah if waiting like this, it will be very long , so how about we see them xiaoyun, what do you think .I should help this person ."
" i can't give you any advice, miss share it if we see this guy first ."
" well then let's go down, we'll see this guy ."
leng qiulu then got off the stretcher and walked closer to the crowd , amidst the crowd were two people who were clashing their mouths , one was dressed shabby and dirty while the other one was wearing a white alchemist robe and there was a logo that was sewn on the chest of the robe, there were 3 stars in that logo , that meant this person was a level 3 alchemist .
not bad, after all to be an alchemist was extremely difficult, and a level 3 alchemist in this kingdom could be counted as a finger , so their position is very noticed and many people are trying not to offend them .
" i beg you help me to purify the antidote pill and I will be a slave forever I swear lord ."
the shabby-clothed man was already prostrating himself before the alchemist but the alchemist remained unmoved, it seemed like the alchemist's decision was already unanimous .
" xiaoyun do you know who that prostrating man is ."
" i know miss , he is the young master of the dai residence, dai langfei . "
the dai residence was one of the great residences back then but due to the rivalry of the aristocratic families in this kingdom, the dai family was exposed to a scandal that caused all the pantua in the residence to be beheaded in public , and the assets of this residence have also been confiscated by many kingdoms, in addition to the house that is the current residence, none of which is owned by the dai family .
after the fall of the dai family another aristocratic family appeared , always so . now the only ones who survive in the former residence are three sons and one daughter . those who are usually filled with luxury, are forced to feel the bitterness of poor life .
from the news on the street the only daughter of the residence had a weak physical from a small , therefore she was often very sick , and the one in the middle of this crowd was dai langfei the second son of the dai residence .
almost all the sons in the dai residence were great people in cultivation , dai ling was a late stage cultivator of the deep sea at the age of 20 while dai langfei was a middle stage cultivator of the deep sea at the age of 16 .
" i've decided, you go and find enough money to pay me then I'll consider helping me." said the old alchemist then about to pass . but just a step he was intercepted by the bodyguard leng qiulu .
" honored elder, can I speak here . "
" of course, but I'm not talking to a stranger, who are you this." the old alchemist stared at the leng qiulu's clothes he knew for sure that leng qiulu came from a rich family , but from which residence he needs to know .
" i leng qiulu, first lady of the general leng residence, if you may know what the problem is that makes the elder to be a spectacle like this." replied leng qiulu with a calm and dignified face .
" oh miss leng, I was resting in this store and this guy came and asked me for help, but the fee he prepared was not enough to pay me, so I refused him . but he kept forcing her ', miss leng give me justice '." cried the watch .
" well elder I will give you justice, but I must listen to the explanation of this man first.Say why you have come to act like this." leng qiulu looked at dai langfei , expecting an explanation .
" miss leng, I dai langfei , my sister today the pain is coming back again , but we have no pills to soothe the pain , ' she said , because of that I pawned the rest of the treasure in our residence and looked for a healer but the healers I met all rejected me because my money was not enough, I was desperate , I beg miss leng to help me. I will serve you all my life .I swear." hearing this leng qiulu pulled a line on her lips, an interesting offer .
" if I may know, what poison makes your sister have to take the poison-treating pill every relapse .?" leng Qiulu was a little curious about this poison, after all he had a lot of pills and did not know what would be possible in this way he could reduce the contents of the dragon blood ring .
" my sister was exposed to a cold poison when she was born, and there was no other medicine other than the antidote pill that could ease my sister's pain ."
cold poison is a poison that makes the body become ice-cold, and very difficult to remove from the body, people affected by this poison will be very weak, and can not cultivate , the chances of that person staying alive were low he had to eat a poison antidote or herbs that had a fire element hundreds of years old knew to be able to relieve pain when the poison rose .
actually taking the pill continuously was also not a good thing the more taking the pill it would be the more excruciating the pain as the cold poison rose , therefore it would be safer to consume fire-elemental herbs, but unfortunately this kind of herb is very difficult to find, decades old alone is very high in price, let alone hundreds of years old .
but for leng qiulu it is not a big thing, because now he is carrying herbs with fire elements that will be auctioned later , but of course he can not show the herbs now he can be robbed in the middle of the road .so we take the middle course , ''so , leng qiulu had already memorized the name of the pill name that was in the dragon blood ring and he remembered that there was a poison antidote pill in it , so he would give the pill to dai langfei and then the problem was solved .
" hmm. alright I have a path to this matter," leng qiulu then stretched out her hand and a jade bottle appeared in her hand .
" this dai langfei is a level 6 poison pill, in this bottle there are 2 grains, later I will visit your residence to see your sister's disease , I think I have a way to control this poison, and reduce the risk of the poison recurring, and for the elders I will compensate , guess how much to pay for this ."
" why did miss give the man a level 6 pill, after all a level 6 pill is very difficult to refine, if you may know where the lady got this pill from . "
" hmm actually I just like helping elders, but about this pill I got from one of my baby friends, her name is chen beixuan , he had only moved to this kingdom a few days ago .he was a level 8 alchemist and to him this level 6 pill was just a snack for his pet rabbit . when I met him some time ago he gave me a lot of pills and I didn't know what to do so I gave some to my servant . "
hearing the elder's leng qiulu utterance was startled, leng qiulu seemed to have a great master behind her, so the elder thought back and rejected the compensation that leng qiulu offered . after giving pills to dai langfei leng qiulu sent one of his guards to accompany dai langfei to his residence and after that he continued his journey .
leng Qiulu had also made news of himself giving a level 6 pill removed from the public, he bribed people not to spread this thing , the events of today no one will know .
leng qiulu's journey back continued it took 20 minutes to get to the city center, after arriving in downtown leng qiulu lansung asked xiaoyun to guide the way to her mother's jewelry store .
the store was in a strategic place , the store was in the middle of the market , leng qiulu entered the store , there were a lot of jewelry on display and the buyers were very crowded , the waiter in this store is also a friendly person then what makes the income of this store is low , the problem was that the concubines and ladies in the leng residence loved to come to the store and take things, but they never paid for the goods .
this debt even they accumulate until many years, every time there are store employees who come to collect their debts will delay until next month so until the next , whereas with a monthly money of 200 taels of gold per month they can pay for this item, but the habit of like to profit itself, making them indifferent even though acting very embarrassing . but leng qiulu has her own way of solving this problem .
leng Qiulu also checked all the shops that were in his mother's possession and all of them had the same case . now he could easily destroy his enemy's enemy, but he had to gather the leaders of this store . so he ordered the xiaoyun to invite all the bosses of this shop to his residence tomorrow anyway he had to prepare a great show for his enemy .
※※※※※※
without feeling the sun was already at its peak , leng qiulu had finished seeing the shop owned by his mother's shop, now he had an appointment with dai langfei to see his sister . leng qiulu ordered the stretcher bearer to take him to the dai residence .
during the trip leng qiulu told xiaoyun that he would cultivate, so don't be bothered until they reach the dai residence . leng Qiulu entered the 7state of the pagoda he needed to ask xiaonu how to get rid of this cold poison .and it just so happened that xiaonu was sitting on the porch of his residence .
" hey xiaonu I need your help ."
" now what else" answered lethargic xiaonu, impressed the temple but still comes from the heart .
" don't pretend in front of me, quickly help me .do you know how to get rid of the cold poison that's in someone's body ?"
" hmm why are you asking me that, did you get cold poison .. hmm no you didn't get cold poison then why did you ask ?"
" don't go back to asking like that, just answer my question ."
" there are many ways to remove the cold poison in a person's body, you can give them pills.but the effect every time the poison rises the pain will be excruciating , you can also give them plants that are fire elements hundreds of years old, but that will cost a lot . but you don't have to worry you have a lot of thousand year old fire element magic herbs . and there's also a last resort, but.." xiaonu thought a little, then shook his head .
" what's the matter why you shake your head like that, what's the last way ."soo leng qiulu but get a piggy bank from xiaonu .
" no, I don't think you can ."
" what can't I do, you haven't told me what it is but already said I can't ."
" well you are the one who forced, on your mountain there is a spirit beast guarding a magical herb, that herb is a fire lotus, that lotus grows in a sea of fire and lava rivers . the herb was also in the guard of a level 10 spirit beast, queen lava snakes .
this spirit beast would already enter the divine stage, if he could cross over to this stage he would be able to transform into a human .but unfortunately spirit beasts very rarely turn into a human . you will have to fight that spirit beast and take the fire lotus, but with your cultivation level , it will be very difficult for you to win so I guess it is impossible , very unlikely except ...." an idea appeared in xiaonu's eyes .
" except , except what ."
" unless you learn the beast teamer art, you can definitely conquer that spirit beast and make it a contracted spirit beast so that you can also increase your cultivation , well this is a better path ."
" so now how should I help someone not to die from cold poison, if I wait to master the beast teamer art he will die .only then can I give her a fire lotus as a flower on top of her meal later." cynical leng qiulu on xiaonu, what kind of idea is that .
" hmm well it looks like I have to take it out." xiaonu then went to one of the enclosed rooms then he entered the room, before long he came out of the room ,and carrying a box , the box was white made of white jade , whatever was inside it came to be guarded like that .xiaonu returned to his place earlier and handed the box to leng qiulu .
" take it, this is peonic flames jade.This jade is made from peonic fire which is refined into jade pendants, there is only one like this in the world , the peonic flames present within this jade would absorb the cold poison residing in the user's body , but this jade can only be used for at least 2 months after that this jade will not have any effect on the body of the wearer . " leng qiulu took the jade pendant and observed that there was indeed a peonic carving on the pendant and she could also feel the comfortable heat of this jade . just like this was enough at least he had time to learn the beast teamer art .
after thanking xiaonu leng qiulu for leaving the 7 state of pagoda, when he opened his eyes he saw xiaoyun standing outside the stretcher, of course they had arrived at the residence dai .
" xiaoyun, how long have we been here ."
" we're just up to Miss , but since miss is still cultivating I don't dare to disturb ." replied xiaoyun while helping leng qiulu out of the stretcher . dai langfei welcomed the group of leng qiulu in the courtyard of the residence, leng qiulu entered the residence with xiaoyun while the guards stood in the courtyard of the residence waiting .
the courtyard of the dai residence is not as grand as before there are no luxurious decorations and servants who go back and forth, which is left only an empty spacious residence , all the luxury furniture has been mortgaged and all the servants have been stopped. Only four residents now survive in this dai residence .
" please enter miss "dai langfei let leng qiulu enter the residence . it is true that there is nothing else in this residence, only empty space .
" i'm sorry that our residence is not worthy of miss layover." dai langfei felt inferior, after all he used to be a young master bathed in treasure , but now he could only survive in this residence, the only one left from the majesty of the aristocratic family dai .
he allowed leng qiulu to sit on the floor with old mats and weathered .actually he was a bit heavy to do this, but this was all he could offer for leng qiulu .
" my sister's miss is in room ', I'll call it for you, you wait here for a while ."
dai langfei darted away to his sister's room, dai xiyue . as the only miss in the dai dai residence, dai xiyue's life wasn't as easy as others said . back when he was a child he was exposed to cold poison so that his body was very weak and could not cultivate, the residence dai tried to keep him alive longer by taking hundreds of years old pills and herbs , but because of the fall of the dai residence .
dai xiyue should be able to accept the fact that her life would not be long anymore, from what she knew from the elders no one could cure this cold poison , all he had done for her all this time was to be able to extend her life for a few moments .
before long dai langfei brought a 12 year old girl, the girl's face was pale, her body was thin . there was no vitality energy in her body, obviously she could not cultivate . dai langfei helped his sister sit next to leng qiulu, then let leng qiulu examine her body.
leng Qiulu took the girl's hand and then checked her pulse, there was indeed something strange about this girl's blood pressure, very weak and low temperature . it seems like the cold poison has reached the heart of dai xiyue, because that's blood in his veins at this low temperature .
" hmm it seems like the cold poison is already creeping into the heart, am I right." dai langfei was surprised by the words leng qiulu, it is true that the poison on his sister's body has crept into the heart , but he never thought a girl as young as leng qiulu could analyze quickly, the general's residence is really fine .
" we answered miss , it is true that this poison has spread to my sister's heart 'we are desperate only the lady can help us ."
" hmm for now I have no way to remove this poison, therefore to extend the time I will give. This, this is peonic flames jade, ' ' ' ' 'cause , although this only looked like an ordinary jade pendant, but this jade was created from the refining of peonic fire , use it and the heat from the peonic flame will help you reduce the effects of this cold poison on your body ."
leng qiulu gave the white jade box to the dai xiyue.dai xiyue broke received the white jade box.he looked at the jade pendant, his heart was a bit sad , it's been a long time since he wore jewelry . he used to have a lot, now he has none .
" let's wear it immediately don't look at it." reprimand leng qiulu .dai xiyue according to then put on the pendant, the pendant dangled to the front of her chest .
there was indeed a sense of heat emanating from the jade, the heat did not torment dai xiyue but rather made her feel very comfortable .after some time the pale face of dai xiyue started to fade away , now at least leng qiulu had proven that this jade gift of hers was working .
" it seems like the jade is effective for him, never take this jade off your body for these 2 months, it will help you to survive I will think of another way after this ."
" mady thank you very much, I really owe you, how can I repay you later Miss ."
" hmm although it sounds a bit embarrassing, but I info. once bought this residence ." dai langfei for being struck by lightning , he and his brothers decided to settle in this residence not because they have no place to go, but because they want to keep maintaining the majesty of their ancestors , so this offer he doesn't know how to win it .
" just relax, I know what you're thinking . I bought this residence not for me to use like the people who came to you before , I bought this residence because I wanted to make a place to train my own bodyguards.I needed them to keep me and your family safe.After all, you were eager to defend your ancestral land , you can stay and help me train soldiers this way you'll have money and a job, so if my last attempt fails you can still buy pills for your sister.how would you agree ."
" i need time to think about her, miss, whether you can give me time." There's a big confusion in her dai langfei , at a time like this he doesn't know what decision he has to make .
" it's okay, you think well whether you agree or not I'll keep treating my sister, you take it easy ." the remark from leng qiulu made the tension on dai langfei's face subside ', at least this way his position is not desperate .
after conversing a little talk the group of leng qiulu returned to the general's residence, after all it was late afternoon , so he better hurry back to rest properly , today is a long day for him .
