Chapter 32: Danger

Chapter 32: Danger (Please collect! Please read!)
"See? You can't tell it, right?" Gao Feixue saw this.

Mo Yanqiu had no choice but to stop arguing with Gao Feixue about this matter and said seriously:
"Feixue, if you join Shengfeng Territory, I promise that I will not restrict your personal freedom. If you are not used to staying here one day, you can leave at any time. As for your offerings..."

She paused for a moment, thinking about the herbs grown in the Cloud Top Chessboard World and the spiritual seeds:
"The entire territory has been in a difficult situation recently, so I may have to bear with you for a while, but I will definitely make it up to you later."

"Is the lady of the lord now in charge?"

Gao Feixue first teased with a smile, then looked into Mo Yanqiu's eyes and said, "It's okay, I believe you."

She had fought side by side with Mo Yanqiu for many years, so she was naturally very clear about Mo Yanqiu's character and personality.

Otherwise, she would not have followed Mo Yanqiu to Shengfengling in the wind and snow.

Mo Yanqiu said: "Young Master said that professional matters should be handled by professionals. This is my duty as a member of the guard team. Besides, Young Master would be very happy to hear that you are joining."

"And don't mention 'lord's wife' all the time. My dear young master and I really haven't..."

Gao Feixue waved her hand and interrupted her:

"Alright, alright, I know you have nothing to do with Xiao Langjun, so don't talk about Xiao Langjun anymore. I'm almost getting calluses from hearing about Xiao Langjun coming and going."

Seeing her obvious disbelief, Mo Yanqiu was about to retort, when the old lady and two women came up with a roasted whole pig cut into small pieces.

Zhou Qingshan and Zhao Xiaoxiao followed him into the main house and sat in the main seat. On the right were Mo Yanqiu and Gao Feixue, and on the left were Xie Meng, Zhou Shiqi and Sanzi.

After serving the dishes, the old lady said to Zhou Qingshan respectfully: "Young Master, all the dishes are served, you can start eating."

After saying that, he turned and sat at a table next to him, where there were more than ten women, and at another table there were nine children.

Gao Feixue looked around and asked in confusion: "...Why haven't I seen them before?"

Zhao Xiaoxiao explained, "Those are the family members of the escort team. Before, the strange beasts were rampant, and for safety reasons, everyone hid in the house and didn't dare to go out. This time, thanks to you and Sister Yanqiu, you got rid of the strange beast."

The Zhou family does not maintain a guard team of ten people, but ten households!
If a member of the guard team unfortunately dies, according to the rules set by Zhou Qingshan, his wife and children will be raised until they reach adulthood.

If the child does not want to inherit his father's responsibilities, Zhou Qingshan will give him a piece of land for permanent use and the tax will be reduced by half.

Of course, you can say that Zhou Qingshan's method of winning people's hearts is simple and crude, but it is extremely useful here.

There were ten guards in the team. Xie Meng was the oldest at the age of twenty-three and got married the earliest. However, he only had one son now because he focused on blood coagulation. The other three guards who lost their lives protecting Zhou Qingshan also left behind two sons and one daughter.

The third son had just gotten married and had no children yet, while Zhou Shiqi had just reached age and there was no suitable partner of the right age in the territory.

The other four injured guards all have children, and together with Zhou Xuefei, they have exactly nine children.

As for Zhou Qingshan's younger brother Zhou Chengshan and Sanniang, they disdain to appear in such occasions, while Erniang avoids suspicion.

Hearing this, Gao Feixue stared blankly at the children playing and fighting not far away, and the laughter coming from her ears. The woman's eyes were slightly red and filled with tears, but there was a smile on her face.

The room was brightly lit and the food on the table was steaming. Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling came over her.

I began to have some feelings about the "home" that Mo Yanqiu had been talking about in the martial arts hall.

After a few people finished their meal.

Mo Yanqiu told Zhou Qingshan that Gao Feixue wanted to stay in Shengfeng Territory.

Zhou Qingshan naturally agreed with a happy look on his face. He exposed these delicacies just to think about whether he could recruit Gao Feixue, who had an icy face and didn't want anyone to approach him. After all, this was the only capital of his Shengfeng Territory.

I originally thought that I would need to work with Mo Yanqiu for a while, but I didn't expect to give him this surprise.

When the eldest brother went out to escort the convoy, he also took away four old members of the blood coagulation guard team of the territory, leaving Uncle Zhao alone. Otherwise, why would he have lost an arm?

Afterwards, Zhou Qingshan began to chat with Gao Feixue. He asked a question and Gao Feixue answered it. The atmosphere was very awkward.

Seeing this, Mo Yanqiu said on behalf of Gao Feixue: "Young Master, Feixue is usually a bit shy, but she is very jumpy when talking to people she is familiar with."

Social phobia? Zhou Qingshan nodded, thinking that there was no need to rush, just take it slowly.

"Young Master, Master Zhao is awake!"

At this moment, Zhou Shiqi hurried over and said something.

When Zhou Qingshan heard this, he ran straight to the room where the injured were.

Zhao Xiaoxiao, Mo Yanqiu and Gao Feixue hurriedly followed.

…………

In the room.

"Uncle Zhao, drink some soup first."

Zhou Qingshan squatted beside the bed, holding a bowl of steaming milky chicken soup in his hands. He blew on the soup carefully to make sure it was at the right temperature, then fed it to Zhao Gang spoonful by spoonful.

Zhao Gang's face turned pale, and he responded weakly: "Young Master... that beast..."

Zhou Qingshan immediately interrupted him gently: "Uncle Zhao, don't worry. The beast was killed by Yan Qiu, and its body has been used to fertilize the fields. You can just rest and recuperate now."

Mo Yanqiu stepped forward: "Master Zhao! I took the Blood Burning Pill given by the young master, and now I am an entry-level warrior!"

Hearing this, Zhao Gang looked at Mo Yanqiu, his eyes full of relief: "Okay... cough... okay..."

"Uncle Zhao, have a good rest. With Yanqiu here, don't worry about the safety of the territory." Zhou Qingshan continued to feed him soup.

Zhao Gang nodded. He knew how powerful the warriors who had entered the country were. Then he slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the warmth and comfort brought by the chicken soup. The burden in his heart seemed to be lightened a lot.

Zhao Xiaoxiao squatted down, tightly held Zhao Gang's left hand, and whispered: "Dad..."

Zhao Gang opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he said something to Zhao Xiaoxiao, then looked around at the people around the bed, but did not see any familiar figure.

"By the way, Erhu and Xiaopeng, why can't I see them?" he couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Qingshan hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice:
"This... Erhu was seriously injured on the way back and has been in a coma ever since. Uncle Zhao, please don't mention this person Zhang Peng anymore."

Zhao Xiaoxiao snorted coldly:
"Humph! Sister Yanqiu said that Zhang Peng has defected to other lords. As for Manager Zhang, he disappeared mysteriously after my father was injured. He must be the one behind all this!"

Zhao Gang was stunned when he heard this, and then asked Zhou Qingshan.

"What about Erhu?"

Zhou Qingshan fell silent.

At this time, Doctor Mo in the room sighed, stepped forward and said:
"The situation is not good. His condition worsened last night. I gave him the 'heart-protecting pill' again. It looks like Erhu won't make it through the next three days. I hope he can wake up and tell his last words in these three days."

Hearing this, Zhao Gang's eyes widened, and he suddenly grabbed Zhou Qingshan's clothes, as if he had grabbed the last straw, his eyes full of pleading:
"Young Master!!"

Among the three people in the Martial Arts Hall, Erhu is the most like him and can be considered the successor. Since his son died, he has treated Erhu as his own son.

Zhou Qingshan couldn't bear to look at Uncle Zhao, and asked, "Mr. Mo, is there any other way..."

"Method?"

Doctor Mo stroked his beard, his brows furrowed, and he looked like he was thinking hard.

"Well... there is always a way. The key is that we are short of the main ingredient of 'Jade Muscle Life-giving Pills'."

"What is missing?"

"We still need the organs of self-healing exotic animals as the main ingredients, as well as bone-growing grass and Zhongling lotion." Doctor Mo said.

None of these three things is simple.

Organs from exotic animals are the rarest, and they have to be self-healing. Bone-growing grass and Zhongling lotion are not ordinary things either, they are even more precious than the 'Nine Lotus Blood Grass', and are important auxiliary medicines for the entry-level treasure pills.

"Exotic animal organs?"

Zhou Qingshan remembered the human-faced bear's practice of exchanging injuries for injuries, and quickly asked Mo Yanqiu to take out the peace buckle and bear gall and handed them to Doctor Mo:
"Mr. Mo, are these two?"

Doctor Mo only took the peace locket in his hand, looked at it, ground a little powder, tasted it, and nodded to confirm:
"Yes."

After solving the most difficult main medicine, Zhou Qingshan frowned and said, "Then we still need Shenggucao and Zhongling lotion..."

"I remember hearing the name 'Zhongling Lotion' on the map my father left behind."

Mo Yanqiu immediately said: "It's there, I'll get it!"
