The general went out again at night

Chapter 56 Buying and Selling

It felt right, so Yang Xiyu came to Zhaoyueju unremittingly, purely to appreciate the beauty, and there was no reason for it.

After noon, when the sun was at its strongest, Yang Xiyu stood two feet away from Cai Zhujun, taking a panoramic view of his frosty face.

As soon as she raised her arm, she could touch her.But Yang Xiyu's hands were obediently hanging by his sides, not exceeding the limit, but those urgent eyes scanned Cai Zhujun's face several times.Yang Xiyu giggled cheerfully.

In the scorching sun, Yang Xiyu's face was flushed, and there were bead-sized beads of sweat on her forehead. She had to wipe it off from time to time to avoid the sweat from rolling onto her eyelashes and blocking her vision.Her knees and elbows were wrapped with thick protective cloth, which was stuffy, and her back was soaked with sweat, which was very sticky.

But Yang Xiyu didn't feel uncomfortable at all, the corners of her mouth raised higher and higher, her eyes were smooth and bright, she was pleasantly surprised to find that this Miss Cai, she can look at it for a long time!

It's just that there is only one expression on Miss Cai's face, that is expressionless, Yang Xiyu can't help but feel disappointed, if Miss Cai has more expressions on her face, she can look at it for a longer time.

Lost for a moment, Yang Xiyu's attention was accidentally taken away by other things.Her eyes moved to Cai Zhujun's temples, and while she was watching, she raised her hand to wipe off the sweat falling from her cheeks.Suddenly startled, Yang Xiyu found a very puzzling question, why was she sweating so much while standing under the sun, while Miss Cai didn't sweat at all?

And why is she standing here for so long?It's been almost two hours, motionless.My stomach is already growling with hunger, isn't she hungry?There was no reaction at all, not even an eyelid blink.

She's not... dead, is she?Yang Xiyu was terrified by the thought of her being born out of nowhere. It was not easy for her to meet such a different girl Cai, and after only a few glances, she was about...to lose sight of it?No no no!Yang Xiyu turned pale with shock, she raised her trembling arm and poked it between Cai Zhujun's nose.

Cai Zhujun, who was motionless, had already turned into wood. At this time, [-]% of her body had turned into a green tree, but she was still in human form, and outsiders could not see it.Concentrating and resting, she did not do nothing, but absorbed the scorching sun's light falling on her body, stored it up, and stored it with aura.

As Yang Xiyu guessed, Cai Zhujun is very human.There are two natures in her, both human nature and wood nature.Humanity can eat, walk, speak...what people can do, so can she.The nature of wood is the most spiritual, with spiritual power that human nature can never achieve, such as manipulating rattan and ground stems, such as absorbing the light of the scorching sun and the water of rain, and turning it into aura...

She is one of the seven guards of the tree coffin, but she is different from them.The Tree Coffin Man's woody and human nature, unable to speak or think, is now being manipulated and turned into a puppet.On the other hand, she can freely transform between wood and human nature, has her own memory and thoughts, understands human conditions and the world, and distinguishes between good and evil.

She didn't have to stay in Suzhou City, but she had unhealed injuries, and it was raining for days, and the spiritual energy in her body was not enough to support her journey and heal her injuries, so she had to stay to recuperate with humanity.

When collecting wood, Cai Zhujun's brain can also think, and she plans the future itinerary in her mind.The sun is out today, so it is good to collect a few hours, and first use it to heal your wounds.If her injuries were not healed, even if she arrived at the northern border to protect Xia Qingshu, she would not be able to resist the rest of the tree coffin men.

In the past, she used to travel through the woods with vines and vines. If she drove a horse back, she could save a lot of spiritual energy. Before halfway, her injuries would heal, and she would have no worries.

After thinking for most of it, a hand approaching her face interrupted Cai Zhujun's train of thought. In the blink of an eye, most of the woodiness in her body receded, and her limbs were unobstructed.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and when the bent index finger was two inches away from Cai Zhujun's nose, he was frightened and froze in place.

"Miss Cai, you...you are not dead!" Yang Xiyu was so excited that she couldn't even speak clearly.

"I'm fine, why did I die?" Cai Zhujun said coldly, his eyes narrowed, and a cold light shot out from inside.

"But you didn't move, you didn't even move your eyelids, which made me very worried." Yang Xiyu retracted her arms and said bluntly.

"I was just standing still, cultivating my body and mind, and there was no danger of threatening my life."

Yang Xiyu exhaled, and smiled slightly: "I misunderstood, Miss Cai, don't take offense."

Cai Zhujun turned around, turned his back to Yang Xiyu and said, "I don't see anything wrong, I'm going back to my room to rest, Miss Yang should go back too." After finishing speaking, she walked towards the wing of Zhaoyueju.

"Cai...Miss Cai, Miss Cai." Yang Xiyu still wanted to say a few more words to her, and hurriedly called out. She wanted to catch up, but when she stepped forward, there was a burst of noise from the soles of her feet. Feeling sour and numb, her feet are motionless, her upper body is bent down, her small face is wrinkled into a ball, and the voice coming out of her mouth fluctuates from high to low, sometimes mixed with gasping voices: "Miss Cai... ...wait for me, my... my feet are numb."

Yang Xiyu hugged her calf and slumped on the ground.

Cai Zhujun, who had taken three steps, suddenly stopped and turned his head.

When Yang Xiyu saw her turn around, her eye slits suddenly widened, and there was a sparkle in her eyes.

"I have something to tell you." Cai Zhujun didn't turn around because he was concerned about her numb feet.

"What's the matter? Miss Cai said yes." Yang Xiyu patted her calf while resisting the sour numbness.

Cai Zhujun said expressionlessly: "I'm leaving here tomorrow. I heard that you have a good horse that can travel thousands of miles. Can you sell me one?"

Hearing Miss Cai's first sentence, Yang Xiyu's heart fell to the bottom. They had only known each other for a few days, and she didn't appreciate it enough. Are they going to separate so soon?After listening to the second half of the sentence, Yang Xiyu frowned several times.buy or sell?This is the business she is good at. Miss Cai wants to do business with her, it's time to use her skills as a profiteer.

Yang Xiyu secretly smiled, took another breath, and asked inarticulately, "Where is Miss Cai going to...?"

"Go to the northern military camp." Cai Zhujun cast his cold eyes on Yang Xiyu, feeling displeased.

"So far away?" The numbness on Yang Xiyu's legs eased up a bit, and let it recover on its own.She put her arms around her knees and looked up at Cai Zhujun.

Cai Zhujun discussed serious matters with her: "Miss Yang, I know the distance, but the distance is all my business and has nothing to do with you. You just need to express your attitude, will the horse be sold or not?"

No, sitting on the ground and talking is too imposing, Yang Xiyu stood up and reached out to pat the dust off the back of his clothes.After all the dirty things were wiped clean, Yang Xiyu cleared her throat, put on the usual smile of a businessman and said, "It's for sale, Miss Cai is my savior. If Miss Cai wants to buy it, of course I want to sell it."

Cai Zhujun just came out of the tree coffin not long ago. It has been a long time since she was in the world. How could she understand the treachery of businessmen? When she saw Yang Xiyu's expression on his face was very sincere, she didn't have any more doubts, and the tension on her face relaxed a little. : Okay, you set a price and sell me one. "

Yang Xiyu saw that her expression changed slightly, like a ray of warm sun shining on the winter ice and snow, melting a small piece of snow water.Yang Xiyu was overjoyed. She had noticed Miss Cai's expression for a long time. For Miss Cai, these changes were rare and hard to see. How could she not be happy?

Yang Xiyu suddenly raised her hand and pinched her earlobe, most of the smile on her face faded, she changed the subject and said: "The price is easy to negotiate, but there is only one condition, I hope Miss Cai agrees."

A bad premonition came to mind, and all the changes of melting ice and snow on Cai Zhujun's face disappeared, and she asked in a cold voice: "What conditions?"

Yang Xiyu clasped his hands and smiled harmlessly: "I'm going to the northern border, and Miss Cai is also going to the northern border. The road is long and difficult. Miss Cai is very skilled in martial arts, come with me."

It really is not a good thing.

Another layer of frost formed on Cai Zhujun's face, and she felt extremely unhappy. She felt that she was being entangled with this girl Yang in front of her, and a voice in her head told her openly that if she took Miss Yang with her, , will definitely bring you a lot of trouble

Cai Zhujun is used to being alone, and she doesn't like trouble at all. She asked in a bad tone: "What are you going to the northern border for? When did you make the decision? Why haven't you mentioned it?"

"A friend of mine used to fight in the northern border. I went to find her to catch up on the past. As for when to make the decision, this is my private matter. Is Miss Cai interested?" Yang Xiyu smiled and used Cai Zhujun's words set.

Cai Zhujun sneered: "It has nothing to do with me, why should I be interested? It's just that I'm used to being alone, and it's really inconvenient to have Ms. Yang by my side. Ms. Yang kept claiming that I was a benefactor, but in disguise she oppressed me by selling horses. , what is the intention?"

"Miss Cai is serious." Yang Xiyu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Business is all about what you want and what you want, it's not so oppressive. Miss Cai is kind and generous. I am a weak woman and I go to the northern border alone. Seniors, what should we do? Let’s go together, Miss Cai has a bodhisattva heart, how nice it is to take me along.”

This is not what oppression is!Cai Zhujun flicked his sleeves and turned his back, without saying a word.

Turning his back to Cai Zhujun, Yang Xiyu smiled brighter and brighter: "Besides, the horses raised in my mansion are extremely good horses. They are strong and good-looking. The key is to eat less, run far, and have good stamina. Long-distance travel. If we go together, with me by my side, this horse can be regarded as my rent from Miss Cai, and the cost can be greatly reduced."

Yang Xiyu's gaze slid down Cai Zhujun's body and landed on the purse at her waist.She looked at the slightly bulging purse, and after a little calculation, she knew how much silver was in it.

Although Miss Cai spent a lot of money on the day she bought the clothes, she got a piece of gold in the first place, but Yang Xiyu concluded that there is definitely no more gold in her purse now.If so, according to Miss Cai's temperament, she wouldn't have listened to her talking nonsense for so long.

Insufficient silver, so she gave Yang Xiyu the capital to do business with Ms. Cai. Years of experience in business told her that Ms. Cai must buy this horse from her. dropped.
