94: C94 Little Ginseng

C94 Little Ginseng

old servant stopped the carriage the moment he heard the sound.

When the carriage stopped, a light shadow jumped up from the ground and rushed into the carriage in the blink of an eye.

Fast, extremely fast, so fast that no one could catch it.

The ray of light dashed into the carriage, and at the same time, an arrow shot into the carriage. old servant did not do anything. If it was any other ordinary person, they would have panicked by now.

But he was not an ordinary person.

old servant quietly held the reins and waited for Xiao Chen to speak.

Xiao Chen opened his hands. There was a fist-sized ginseng in his palm. This little guy already had the appearance of a human. There was also a red undergarment on it. There were green leaves on top of his head, and he looked very fair and fat.

"You little thing, you even dare to barge into my carriage!"

Xiao Chen raised his hand and gently patted the little ginseng's head. The little fellow immediately waved its whiskers to indicate resistance. Xiao Chen smiled. In an instant, he flicked his finger on the little ginseng's forehead.

"You dare to bargain with me?"

The fallen ginseng immediately stood up. Using its whiskers to soften its forehead, it looked very wronged.

"I don't care about your level, but your undergarment..."

Xiao Chen's gaze fell on the small bellyband on the ginseng's chest. He realized that Xiao Chen was paying attention to his bellyband. The small ginseng immediately used all of its roots to protect its undergarment.

He felt that Xiao Chen was a bandit.

Looking at Xiao Chen, it didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm just looking, I don't want it. If I want it, do you think you can fight back?" Xiao Chen asked jokingly.

"Young master?"

old servant suddenly asked.

Xiao Chen put the miniature person aside and opened the curtain to see the arrow stuck in the carriage.

Xiao Chen reached out and pulled the arrow out. The arrow was about three feet long. The sharp arrow was made of top grade cold iron. The person who drew the bow and shot the arrow had a high cultivation level.

The arrow that caught Xiao Chen's attention the most had a small golden word 'arrow' on it. This was the symbol of the Jian family. This meant that the people of the Jian family were chasing this little ginseng.

Just as Xiao Chen was looking carefully, three or four people arrived in front of him. The leader was a woman wearing red armor. She carried an arrow quiver on her back and held a red longbow in her left hand.

Their mounts were all superior warhorses. The horses' hooves ignited with flames and their bodies were as red as blood.

The three people behind her were dressed casually, but one could tell that these people's statuses were not low. The fabric of the clothes was of high quality.

The four of them came to a stop in front of the carriage.

"That's my arrow."

When the girl saw Xiao Chen holding the arrow and looking at it carefully, she immediately reminded him.

"Oh?" Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at the young girl. She had a peerless appearance, delicate facial features, and a heroic aura between her brows. Her aura was no less than the three men behind her.

"What are you from the Jian family?"

"How dare you!" If Xiao Chen dared to ask, someone would immediately scold him. Xiao Chen looked at this man. This man frowned slightly when he sensed Xiao Chen's gaze. There was a trace of arrogance in his eyes. "The Jian family isn't something you can casually ask!"

"Who are you?"

"My name is Chang Rui. I am the eldest son of the Chang family of Xuanjian City." When this man revealed his identity, he revealed a proud expression, just like the son of the emperor. His face was full of pride, feeling that everyone was inferior to him.

"I don't know."

Xiao Chen's words almost made Chang Rui cough up blood. The people who came with him heard Xiao Chen's words and tried hard not to laugh.

Chang Rui was usually a little arrogant, but now he had met a tough guy. He didn't know your Chang family.

"How dare you humiliate me?" Chang Rui's expression turned ugly. He raised his bow and shot an arrow at Xiao Chen. The distance between them was less than five meters. According to Chang Rui's strength, Xiao Chen wouldn't be able to dodge this arrow no matter what.

Although Chang Rui wasn't a disciple of the Jian family, he had excellent archery skills in the city. He was almost no match for Chang Rui. This was one of the reasons why Chang Rui was so arrogant.

"Stop!" The young girl stopped him. Chang Rui looked at the young girl and put down his bow. He looked at Xiao Chen with an unfriendly look.

"My name is Jian Hongyan."

"What a nice name!" Xiao Chen nodded.

"I wonder if this Fellow Daoist has seen a ginseng before?" Jian Hongyan asked Xiao Chen. Actually, Jian Hongyan and the other three knew that this small ginseng must be in the carriage of the person in front of them. Jian Hongyan believed that her arrow would not be wrong.

Her arrow was shot out in pursuit of the scent of the ginseng. This arrow definitely could not be wrong.

"I have seen it!"

Xiao Chen said straightforwardly.

"Where?" Jian Hongyan asked.

"In my car!"

"Since it's in your car, then take it out for us. Otherwise, you will regret it!" Before Jian Hongyan could say anything, Chang Rui said from the side. His tone was cold and aggressive. He felt that if Xiao Chen did not take it out, the next second he would be waiting for death.

Xiao Chen looked at Chang Rui and then looked at Jian Hongyan. "It's not in my car!"

The next second, Xiao Chen changed his words. The four of them were stunned when they heard that. What was going on?

"Didn't you say that the Fellow Daoist was still in your car?" Another man asked Xiao Chen.

"You are?"

"I'm Shi Si." Shi Si said very politely. It could be said that he was very refined and gentle.

"I did just now, but I'm not here anymore!" Xiao Chen said calmly. This man looked at Xiao Chen. He now understood that this man wanted to be a rascal here. He didn't want to give it to them.

"How can a gentleman go back on his word?"

Shi Si asked in confusion. He looked at the man in front of him, who was also a scholar. What they paid attention to was filial piety, loyalty, honesty, and shame. But in the next second, it was a little too shameless to go back on his word.

They had never seen such a shameless person before.

"Isn't it a little inappropriate for medicinal Fellow Daoists to be repeated like this!?"

"Who are you?"

"I'm Ann Ping." The man introduced himself immediately.

"If I say yes, then yes. If I say no, then no. If there's nothing else, get out of my way. I have something else to do." Xiao Chen looked at the four of them and said.

The four of them were completely speechless.

This was too arrogant. You might as well just say that you don't want to give it to us. Why do you need to be so aggressive?

"How much did this young master buy it?!" In his opinion, Xiao Chen was stalling for time. He thought that Xiao Chen had found out about their identities and wanted to get some benefits from them.

"It's priceless."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he put down the curtain and ignored the four of them. old servant saw that Xiao Chen didn't intend to stay any longer, so he drove away as well. The carriage left, but the four of them were still frozen in place.

"This man is too arrogant. I have to teach him a lesson." Chang Rui said with anger in his eyes. No one in Yongzhou dared to talk to them like this.

"Let's go!"

Jian Hongyan looked at the carriage for a long time and called the three of them to follow. Soon, the four of them caught up to the carriage. "Young master, can we discuss this? If you give the ginseng to me, it will be a favor for Jian family. How about it?"

"This thing is useful to you?"

"It's useful. Three days ago, the Jian family held a competition for the disciples of the family. This ginseng is my first prize." Jian Hongyan said awkwardly.

Every ten years, the Jian family would hold an internal competition for the disciples. The winning families would receive generous rewards. Those who failed would have to give up half of their properties. To put it bluntly, it was a competition for the resources within the family. It was a competition between the direct and collateral families.

Over the past ten years, the collateral families of the Jian family had gradually become stronger. There were also many geniuses in the family. Over the past ten years, the collateral families had gradually gained a lion head that surpassed the direct descendants.

Therefore, Jian Hongyan could not lose this time. This match was very important to the direct descendants.

Three days were almost up. She had only found this five thousand year old ginseng after looking around the mountain forest. Although it was impossible for her to win. But better than nothing.

"But this ginseng is ownerless. Isn't it the first to get it?"

"I know! If the Fellow Daoist has any request, just say it. I can do it without a second thought."

"Alright, if you promise to keep its life, I will give it to you!" Xiao Chen looked at the little ginseng on his palm. If this little thing was somewhere else, Xiao Chen would not care about its life and death. However, this little thing was actually able to rush into his carriage at the moment of life and death. This was fate with him.

Since it was fate, he had to protect its life and resolve the fate of meeting him.

Jian Hongyan was stunned. The three people behind her were also surprised. What kind of reason was this? Could it be that you went back on your word just now because of this reason?

"Ridiculous. A five thousand year old ginseng died just like that. This young master has never taken it seriously." Chang Rui said coldly. In Chang Rui's eyes, what Xiao Chen did was a stupid thing to do.

"Alright, I can promise you that! As long as I, Jian Hongyan, am here, my life will not be in danger."

After Jian Hongyan finished speaking, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand from behind the carriage. There was a very quiet little ginseng in his palm. "I hope you will remember what you said today. If anything happens to it, there is no need for your Profound Arrow City to exist on this continent."

"What the heck!"

Chang Rui and the other two cursed at the same time. This was too arrogant and arrogant. They actually said that there was no need for Xuanjian City to exist on this continent. This was too much of a boast.

This was the biggest joke they had ever heard in their lives.

A person dared to threaten the Profound Arrow City. He was afraid that he would die before he even got close to the city.

"Don't worry!"

Compared to the three of them, Jian Hongyan was much calmer. She only thought that Xiao Chen said some harsh words and was not very unhappy.

"There's something in front!"

After getting the ginseng, When they heard Ann Ping say there was something in front of them, the four of them immediately sped up their horses and arrived at their destination in a few breaths' time.

"It's actually the Ice Crystal Sky Scorpion. If we take it back, this time's first name will be Hongyan!" Chang Rui said excitedly.

The Ice Crystal Sky Scorpion was a demon beast that lived underground all year round. It would only come to the ground when it laid eggs.1

Because living underground, the Heavenly Scorpio used the underground Ice Crystal Spirit Stone as food. After a long period of accumulation, the Heavenly Scorpio would mutate, and the body of the Heavenly Scorpio would also turn into ice crystals, ultimately becoming the Ice Crystal Heavenly Scorpio.

The Ice Crystal Sky Scorpio's effects were very wide, and could be said to be a treasure that could only be chanced upon but not sought.

But there was one thing that was very difficult, and that was that the Ice Crystal Sky Scorpio's defensive power was extremely strong. Its attack power was not great, but its poison was extremely terrifying. It could be said that it would die if it touched it.

If the Expert of Dao Ancestor was poisoned by the Ice Crystal Scorpio, it would die if it was not detoxified in time.

"But this is the Ice Crystal Scorpio!" Shi Si Qian said worriedly. He was afraid that the four of them together would not be a match for the Ice Crystal Scorpio.
