Seven Strings in Dreams

Chapter 161 Meet at Midnight

Snakes are extremely vengeful animals. A wise snake is even more difficult to deal with. The silver snake in front of me is chilling and definitely not an ordinary one.

If the silver snake had not been injured, Zhu Ji would definitely not be its match.

Zhu Ji could only try to lure the other party to stabilize his emotions.

Zhuji explained the whole story and promised a generous reward. Silver Snake understood what Zhuji meant, but did not give any response.

The silver snake suffered a loss, but it also knew that Zhuji's poison was not fatal, it would only make its body stiff and slow down its movements. It has now begun to recover slowly. After a while, it will be fully recovered.

The poison it was suffering from was no big deal. The most important thing now was that it needed to heal its wounds.

The pearls were nothing to it. It had to hurry up and recover its strength so that it could fight the opponent that had severely injured it.

Neither Zhu Ji nor Yin She wanted to make things too awkward.

Zhuji: "The poison in your body can only make you weak for a short period of time. But it is not fatal. With your ability, the poison will completely fade away in an hour."

The silver snake understood what Zhu Ji meant, and it looked at Zhu Ji carefully. The demon world never liked to get too close to the cultivators in the human world.

The human world has always been very cruel to the creatures in the demon world. The demon world has never taken the creatures in the human world seriously. The human world and the demon world have always been mortal enemies.

But the silver snake was not worried at all. Few people in the human world could discover its true identity. The stupid human race would only regard it as an ordinary beast. Whether it was a spiritual beast, a demon beast, or a fierce beast, it had nothing to do with it.

When Zhuji appeared, it breathed a sigh of relief because there was no murderous intent in Zhuji's eyes.

Zhuji's eyes were filled with surprise and curiosity. It was rare to see a human like this. Usually, people who saw it would either be scared to death or want to fight it.

After all, wealth and honor come from risk! If we can seriously injure it, we will be rich.

The silver snake usually hides in the mountains to practice. It doesn’t see many people, but this is the first time it has seen someone like Zhu Ji.

Zhuji: "I still have the spiritual medicine you want, at least five. If you like it, let's exchange. You give me some bile, and I will exchange five spiritual medicines with you."

It was unknown whether the silver snake did not believe what the guardian Zhuji said, or was not interested in his proposal. It turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhuji: "Wait a minute! Shizhu! If you agree, come to me tonight at midnight. I know you can find me, so don't alert others. Otherwise, someone will ruin the deal between you and me."

The silver snake looked back at Zhu Ji, then slowly left.

Protector Zhuji felt a little disappointed. He didn't know whether the silver snake would come to find him.

The silver snake disappeared very quickly. It was not big, about the thickness of an arm, and about the height of a person.

Its cold silver glow makes people shudder, and it is out of tune with the surrounding things.

Zhuji was a little worried about it. It was injured, and she didn't know how serious it was.

Zhuji thought about it and had to set up traps in other places. This time he only took some high-level medicinal herbs. The medicinal herbs he took last time were too precious, so he reduced the cost this time.

He wants to keep the good stuff to trade with the spirit snake!

He made preparations for both scenarios, but was worried that the silver snake would not come to find him tonight.

Actually, catching snakes is not difficult, but the medicinal effect of ordinary snake gallbladders cannot meet Zhuji's requirements. Even if you kill more snakes, it is better to take some bile from spirit snakes.

According to legend, the bodies of intelligent snakes have already been refined into beast elixirs, and when they have cultivated to a certain level they can transform into human form.

However, spiritual beasts and spiritual medicines must have chance to transform into human form.

Zhuji knew that it was not easy for spirit snakes to cultivate, so he did not want to take their lives. If he could get what he wanted through exchange, he would be willing to do so.

Zhuji wanted to go back quickly, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of the villa, he was asked to leave.

The man had been waiting for him at the gate for a long time. As it was a matter of life and death, Zhu Ji could not refuse, and after hesitating for a while, he went out again.

Meng Xianyu felt a little sleepy after eating, so she sat on a small stool and looked at the fire, holding a huge palm leaf fan in her hand.

She squinted her eyes and fanned the fire, then fanned herself.

This medicine room is quite large and has a wide range of equipment. There are several furnaces for refining medicines and there are also places for grinding, pounding, drying and making medicines.

There is a wall of medicine cabinets in the pharmacy, neatly arranged with the names of medicinal materials marked on them.

Unfortunately, there is no place to rest here.

The pitiful little stool that Meng Xianyu was sitting on was borrowed by her specially.

The small stool was used by the children in the villa on a daily basis. Meng Xianyu asked the servants to fetch it for her.

She didn't want to sit on the floor, which would make a mess. She didn't have many changes of clothes, and she didn't want to get dirty.

The small stool was just the right height for her to sit on. If it was any higher, she would have to bend down.

Maybe I was too bored and had no appetite even for food.

She didn't know if she was tired or bored, but she felt sleepy and could only hold on.

She was in a daze and didn't even know someone had entered the alchemy room.

The person who came was the Amber Guardian. She stared at Meng Xianyu as soon as she came in. She didn't get close to Meng Xianyu because she was afraid that she would not be able to help but kill Meng Xianyu.

Amber Guardian had always thought that she was the only woman who could freely enter and leave the alchemy room. She was the perfect match for Pearl Guardian.

In the eyes of Amber Protector, Meng Xianyu is just a yellow-haired girl of unknown origin.

Even though everyone around her was praising Meng Xianyu, she didn't take her seriously. After all, a woman of a foreign race, no matter how pretty she was, would have to get out of the way sooner or later.

But such a young girl could actually enter the forbidden area of ​​the Zhuji Guardian.

Amber's eyes were burning with fire, and the fire in her heart could no longer be suppressed. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh, and blood dripped onto the ground.

This little bit of pain doesn't matter at all, her heart is bleeding too.

She came with Coral Guardian. Coral Skin Care was waiting outside. Coral Guardian was not allowed to enter and leave the alchemy room at will.

If Zhu Ji is in a good mood and has refined something good, he will also invite his brothers to visit.

But Shanhu always took the initiative to stand at the door. Shanhu always said that she was afraid that she would be careless and break other things.

Everyone knows that there are some things that cannot be crossed.

Zhuji has a weird temper to begin with, and it would be bad if their brotherhood was hurt because of some trivial matter.

When they arrived at Zhuji's territory, the other guardians were also very cautious. Only the Amber guardian could wander around without restraint.

This makes it seem like they have a very close relationship.

Although the Amber Protector seems unscrupulous, it is actually because she is always observing the behavior of the Pearl Protector in private.

She knew exactly what not to touch, where not to stand, what not to get close to, and so on.

Whenever a medicine boy or a subordinate was punished by the Pearl Guardian, the Amber Guardian would go and find out what the other party had done wrong.

After accumulating this knowledge over the years, Amber Guardian has a very good understanding of Pearl Guardian.

Amber Guardian seemed to have no rules, but in fact he avoided the dangers step by step. That was why the other guards misunderstood him.

Dharma Protector Zhuji once tried to kindly persuade Dharma Protector Amber to leave, but compared to the other Dharma Protectors, he seemed very gentle and considerate.

Only the guardian Linlang saw some clues in this, but he didn't have the time to meddle in other people's business.

Logically, they shouldn't just stay out of this matter.

But Dharma Protector Linlang also has his own difficulties.

It’s all because of his senior brother who is also the right protector!

After all, Dharma Protector Cong Heng was his elder brother, and Dharma Protector Cong Heng was very obsessed with Dharma Protector Amber. Although it was not as good as the big swords in his hands, apart from weapons, Dharma Protector Amber was what he cared about most.

No matter what Guardian Linlang said, he would not believe it.

In the eyes of the guardian Cong Heng, his second apprentice sister is the best woman in the world. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also gentle and virtuous.

If Guardian Linlang said anything more, it would only hurt the harmony between the brothers.

Besides, his elder brother has always been in love with her, so he doesn't need to worry about anything.

If one day, the two of them really get together, that would be a headache!

Linlang Guardian saw it clearly, but could only watch helplessly. If he learned to talk nonsense like that gossipy woman, wouldn't he be inferior?

He was a man of integrity after all, and he couldn't do anything like gossiping about others behind their backs, especially not his second senior sister.

Although he couldn't say it behind her back, he still talked to the Amber Guardian. He hoped that the other party could handle the relationship well and not cause too many misunderstandings.

Linlang wasn't the only one who understood. Some people had also seen through the clues, but they were too lazy to expose the little thoughts of the Amber Guardian.

The guardian Zhuji certainly didn't notice it. To him, the behavior of the guardian Amber did not affect him.

Maybe he saw it, but didn't say anything. Or maybe he didn't care at all. He only cared about his herbs, pills, and the like.

The Zhuji guardian had many rules, and the other guardians were also very busy. Gradually, no one bothered him much while he was refining medicine.

Only the guardian Amber came here often, and she was very cautious in everything she did.

When the guardian Zhuji was free, he would give her some pointers. Unfortunately, the guardian Amber had average talent and was not suitable for refining medicine.

Anyway, she is not interested in wine, but only cares about the protector Zhuji.

As time went by, the only woman, Amber Guardian, who frequently entered and exited the medicine furnace was this one.

Even if the Coral Guardian came, he would only stop at the door for a moment and leave quickly.

In this villa, apart from the two guardians, other women did not dare to disturb the medicine furnace.
