Chapter 120: Ninth Master Said to Help
"Have you heard that something bad is going on? The barbarians are coming to attack the city!"
"This...what should we do? What will we do if there is a fight?"
"Xiaosheng thinks there is no need to be nervous. There has been no movement from General Dong's side. In the past, if there was a war, General Dong would take the lead in taking care of us and would not leave us behind."
"Yes, the most reliable person in Huacheng is General Dong. General Dong will never abandon us!"
At the teahouse, before Feng Jiuqing could wait for the news that An Qi had not found the fox blood, she heard the people in the city discussing the tense news outside the city.
But what was unexpected was that the people of Huacheng did not become panicked. Instead, they had great expectations for Dong Yi.
Even if Feng Jiuqing was a little dissatisfied because of Dong Yi's doubts about her, hearing these words, the grudge in her heart could not help but diminish.
At this time, she heard someone say again: "And in this battle, with King Sheng here, we will not lose!"
Feng Jiuqing felt complicated, thinking that Nangong Ling actually had such prestige among the people?
"Miss Feng?"
A gentle and elegant voice suddenly sounded.
Feng Jiuqing was very familiar with this person's voice. Sure enough, as soon as she turned around, she heard the guests in the teahouse clasping their fists and greeting the person who had just come up the stairs, "Hello, Master Jiu."
"You're welcome."
Master Jiu was calm and relaxed, he cupped his hands with a smile, and then continued to walk towards Feng Jiuqing.
"I didn't expect Miss Feng to be here." Master Jiu sat down familiarly.
Feng Jiuqing had a calm expression on her face and said, "Oh, it's Master Jiu. I didn't expect Master Jiu to come to the teahouse too."
The tea in this teahouse was mediocre, so Feng Jiuqing came here to take a rest, just looking for this kind of place to get all kinds of news.
When Master Jiu saw Feng Jiuqing's appearance, he knew that the relationship between the two could not be as unguarded as before, and he sighed again in his heart.
After thinking for a while, he said seriously: "To be honest, I found Miss Feng after I heard that she wanted fox blood."
Feng Jiuqing frowned and looked around, but did not see An Qi.
However, Master Jiu seemed to already know her plan, and said with a smile: "Miss Feng is now a celebrity in Huacheng. No one needs to tell you this news, I can also guess a thing or two."
"As expected of Master Jiu." Feng Jiuqing hummed, looked at him coldly, and asked, "Do you have one?"
Master Jiu smiled humbly and ignored her strange annoyance. He just said: "The blood of a fox is not a rare thing. You can get it just by buying a fox from a hunter in the mountains."
Feng Jiuqing frowned, she knew that Master Jiu's intervention would definitely ruin her plan to leave the city.
Master Jiu frowned and said: "But now that the city is closed, the prey has not left the city to hunt for several days, and there are no foxes in the city."
Feng Jiu was finally satisfied and said, "Then I won't bother Master Jiu. I'll go find the fox blood myself."
Master Jiu stopped talking.
He looked at Feng Jiuqing with a half-smile, and his gentle face revealed a white and black aura. Seeing that Feng Jiuqing secretly thought that he had made a mistake, I'm afraid...
"Oh? It seems that Miss Feng wants to find fox blood by herself?" Master Jiu said with a slight smile.
Seen through!
Feng Jiuqing's eyes darkened, she bit her back molars, and looked at Master Jiu with a bit of self-annoyance in her eyes.
She didn't speak, and Master Jiu spoke for her.
"Fox blood is not rare, and it has no use. I'm afraid Miss Feng is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking. What she wants is not the fox blood, but to get out of the city, right?"
Feng Jiuqing rolled her eyes, knowing that this guy was not as easy to fool as an honest person like An Qi.
Therefore, after taking a deep breath, he compromised and admitted, "Master Jiu is so powerful that I can't hide it from you."
After getting the accurate answer, Master Jiu was not proud, but instead frowned slightly.
He said extremely cautiously: "Miss Feng, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to leave at this time. There are barbarians ambushing you outside Huacheng, so it's better to wait..."
"My identity is different from yours. Staying here will only arouse suspicion."
Feng Jiuqing said coldly: "I have never seen more people believe in me than this number in this world."
She extended a slap.
Master Jiu's throat was clogged and his eyes were heavy.
If it weren't for Feng Jiuqing's identity, there would be no problem in being friends with such a person.
And now even if he wants to be one of them, I'm afraid he won't be trusted...
"There are people watching me over there in the Western Region." Feng Jiuqing glanced coldly out the window.
This teahouse is built so high that if you look around, you can see the yellow sand outside the Flower City and the open world.
"The weapons of the barbarians are very powerful. If you Huacheng can't stop them, I'm afraid the person they are looking for is me." Feng Jiuqing did not shy away from it at all.
She said calmly: "I have died too many times. Now I am no longer their young master of the Western Region, nor the Feng Jiuqing who can only be used by others... I don't want to be involved in any of this anymore."
Master Jiu lowered his eyes slightly, but he did not miss the loneliness in Feng Jiuqing's eyes.
It was so sad to live a life of being used as a chess piece. He understood that Feng Jiuqing wanted to escape from this fate.
And now, there is such a unique opportunity...
"I won't disturb Master Jiu for his tea."
After Feng Jiuqing finished speaking, she stood up and was about to leave.
But at this moment, Master Jiu suddenly raised his head, stared at her back, and said calmly: "Miss Feng, you can't get out of this city by yourself."
Feng Jiuqing glanced at him sideways, wanting to refuse coldly.
But Master Jiu smiled slightly and suddenly said: "But I can help you."
Feng Jiuqing was silent for a moment, but her heart was deeply moved.
Fortunately, she remained rational, "What are the benefits of Master Jiu helping me?"
Master Jiu stood up and looked at her with a smile: "Miss Feng's medical skills are hard to find in the world. Therefore, I think it is not a loss for me to have a friend like you."
Just for this reason?
Feng Jiuqing raised her eyebrows slightly, with some disbelief in her eyes.
Master Jiu didn't expect her to believe him right away, so he added, "Besides, you have a good relationship with Yaowang Valley. Having you as a friend is equivalent to getting to know Master Qin Shaogu."
"I know two doctors with top medical skills in Dayan. Isn't it a profit for me?"
This is more like his businessman's temperament.
Feng Jiuqing raised her eyebrows, "Even if you offend Nangong Ling or Dong Yi for this?"
"That's a big deal." Jiuye smiled slyly, "You and I are friends, so naturally I want to help you."
Feng Jiuqing silently withdrew her gaze and thought to herself, do you think I am a little innocent?
However, Master Jiu couldn't help but give a gesture of invitation, "This matter is not big or small. To ensure everything goes smoothly, why don't Miss Feng take me to have a good talk?"
Feng Jiuqing only hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
Chapter completed!
