"What happened?" Oliver heard the voices outside and sat up in a daze.
"There was some trouble in the general's mansion." Asher sat beside his bed, "The child we picked up last night was snatched away."
"Ah?" After hearing these words, Oliver suddenly woke up.
"Don't worry, it doesn't sound like it's a big deal." Asher said, "It's probably because the child's family is inconvenient to show up. Do you want to go to the General's Mansion with me?"
"Yeah." Oliver nodded, got out of bed, washed up, and went out with him.
Naturally, Mu Hanye and Huang Daxian also traveled with them - it would be boring to stay in the villa anyway, so they had to join in the fun.
So when Master Ye Gu got up lazily, he learned that Oliver and others had gone out again.
"What are you doing at the General's Mansion so early in the morning?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
The secret guard said, "It is said that a little baby was snatched away in the middle of the night."
"A little kid?" Ye Jin was stunned. "Wei Yang's?" That shouldn't be the case. I've never heard that there are children in the general's mansion before.
The secret guard shook his head, "I don't know, and I didn't ask Palace Master Qin in detail."
Ye Jin felt a little tight in her chest. She just didn't go out all night. Why did she seem to have missed a lot of things? !
"Let's go." Shen Qianfeng pulled him up, "You can't guess it here, just go and take a look."
"It's all you!" Ye Jin was angry, "Yesterday I said I was going to Yuelao Temple!"
The secret guard on the roof had an expression on his face, feeling that the Valley Master was really in trouble. When I was carried back to the room last night, I was clearly as obedient as a cat. Don't hug the young master too tightly with your hands! Not to mention going to Yue Lao Temple with that posture, it is estimated that even if Yue Lao really appears and descends to earth, the two of them will still do what they should do.
However, Shen Qianfeng obviously would not argue with him about this, and he agreed to everything with a good temper, and then said, "Why don't we just go to the city for breakfast? There are cabbage pan-fried dumplings."
Ye Jin pouted proudly, then walked out the door hand in hand with him.
"Alliance Master Shen and Valley Master Ye are here." In Lamei City, the breakfast stall owner was very enthusiastic, "Hurry and sit down."
"Two plates of fried buns and two bowls of vermicelli soup." Shen Qianfeng said.
"Okay." The stall owner's hands and feet were very smooth. Ye Jin sat on the small bench and looked around boredly. He caught a glimpse of a drawer of delicious snacks on the chopping board, so he said, "I want to eat that."
"Ah?" The stall owner was stunned.
"Not for sale?" Ye Jin blinked, "Then forget it."
"How much money?" Shen Qianfeng asked the stall owner, "I'll pay double."
"...Not expensive." The stall owner put the snacks in front of Ye Jin, "But I bought them, too. If you like them, please eat them. I'll buy another tray later."
"Thank you." Ye Jin picked one up and thought it tasted good. Halfway through, a 18-year-old child ran over and said to the stall owner, "Daddy, where's the fertility cake? Mom said my sister's appetite has improved, so she asked me to take it back first."
"Be good, go to the west of the city and buy another basket from Niu Ye." The stall owner whispered, "Give it to your sister while it's still hot."
"It's all done now, is there anything left? Mom was just afraid that she wouldn't be able to buy it too late, so she asked dad to buy it earlier." The child spoke very maturely. He pursed his lips in displeasure, pinched the coin and kicked it again. Kick away.
Ye Jin:...
deliver! son! cake? !
"Hehe." Seeing Ye Jin's strange expression, the stall owner sneered.
Shen Qianfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to him, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" He thought it was just a basket of ordinary pastries.
I don't dare... The boss felt a little bitter in his heart, and then he smoothed things over and said, "Actually, it just sounds nice. There is no way you can conceive a baby after eating it. Master Ye Gu, don't take it to heart."
No wonder people were watching me while I was eating! Ye Jin felt a little dizzy, but she couldn't get angry, so she waved her hand to indicate that it was okay and continued to drink the vermicelli soup.
Shen Qianfeng reached out and took a cake, then ate it in two or three bites.
Ye Jin:...
"I want to be embarrassed." Shen Qianfeng pinched his cheek and spoke in a low voice.
Ye Jin was amused, "You are so stupid."
While the stall owner was busy working, he also laughed along with her. They were really in love, so nice.
After breakfast, the two went to the general's residence together. They saw Asher and others were there, and Wan Caicai and Li Yishui were talking about what happened last night.
"Brother, Brother Ye." Oliver greeted them when he saw the two men come in.
"I heard from the secret guard this morning that the child in the General's Mansion was lost. What happened?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
Asher recounted what happened last night, and then said, "I heard that the martial arts path is very evil, and I can't even see the sect."
"But those two people should really be the child's family." Wan Caicai said, "Although their faces were covered, the child was still very affectionate with them, hugging and giggling all the time, and always protecting the child during the fight. "
"The Northeastern Army has been stationed here for some years, and I have never heard of such a group of people." Wei Yang said, "Maybe they passed by here occasionally and accidentally lost the child. It was inconvenient for them to show up, so they had to snatch the child back in the middle of the night."
"If that's the case, then it shouldn't be a big deal." Ye Jin said, "It's just a little farce."
"Hey, what's on your finger?" Oliver asked sharply.
"Hmm?" Ye Jin glanced at her hands and saw some red stains on her fingertips. Before she could say anything, Wei Yang said, "You must have eaten the fertility cake, which is wrapped in red petals."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone else in the room was stunned.
This is definitely true love, the fertility cake.
This can be eaten too.
"What are you doing!" Ye Jin was furious, "Can't you just have a snack?"
...
The rest continued to remain silent.
Of course you can have some snacks.
But sendzi cake doesn’t sound like any ordinary snack.
Are you sure you can eat whatever you want?
"Stop it." Shen Qianfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I just saw it at the breakfast stall, and I didn't know I was going to eat it. Later I found out that the boss bought it for his family."
"Let's just say, I thought I lined up specially to buy it." Wei Yang suddenly realized.
Ye Jin really wanted to flip the table!
Who wants to queue up to buy that kind of stuff!
"You have to wait in line to buy a pastry?" Shen Xiaoshou wondered, and then eagerly asked his sister-in-law, "Is it delicious?"
Asher couldn't hold back his laughter. Little foodies are so cute.
Ye Jin hit him on the head violently, "Shut up!"
Oliver's balls are messy, how could my sister-in-law be like this? I really want to ask about the taste.
"Songzi cake sells well, not because it is delicious, but because it is effective." Wei Yang's deputy general interjected, "It is more effective than the Queen Mother."
"Such a thing really happens." Oliver was surprised.
"Can you get pregnant after eating it?" Out of a doctor's instinct, Ye Jin still asked more.
The deputy general hesitated for a moment and said, "Indeed, but it should only be useful to women."
As soon as he said this, the room fell into strange silence again. Ye Jin's eyes turned black and he said angrily, "I didn't want to get pregnant on my own!"
...
Three or two quacking crows flew outside the house.
Oliver looked at his sister-in-law sympathetically. What does it mean that the picture is getting darker and darker? Do you want to calm down first?
The deputy quickly hid behind Wei Yang to avoid being beaten.
Asher walked out calmly and started to laugh while holding on to the tree.
Oliver:...
Can you please stop worrying about the world being in chaos?
Mu Hanye's eyes flickered, "Ah Huang, do you want to eat?"
Wong Tai Sin's head was buzzing.
Do you want to join in this kind of fun?
"The fertility cake is made by Mr. Niu from the west of the city. It is only sold once a month, so there are many people waiting to grab it." Wei Yang tried to smooth things over. "I didn't believe it before, but there really was a woman who couldn't get pregnant for three or five years after getting married. After eating the cake for a few months, she got pregnant, and even the doctor couldn't tell the reason."
It sounds a bit evil... Oliver scratched his chin.
Wei Yang continued, "Some people also asked Boss Niu about it, but in the end they didn't get anything out of it. They just said it was a secret recipe passed down from their ancestors."
"Listen to his nonsense." The deputy general said disdainfully, "The Niu family has been making beef offal soup for generations, and only started making fertility cakes in this generation. How can it be an ancestral craft?" He couldn't even think of a better excuse for lying.
"General." As they were talking, the guard outside the door said, "General Shen sent someone over to discuss the battle."
"Then I will go and take care of military affairs first." Wei Yang stood up with his deputy general.
Shen Qianfeng nodded, "General, it's up to you."
"Do you want to go out of the city?" Asher asked Oliver after Wei Yang left.
"Okay." Shen Xiaoshou nodded. A few days ago, he said he wanted to go see the flowers blooming in the wilderness, but he was always delayed by something. Now that he finally had some free time, he decided to go and see what it was like.
Since there was nothing to do, Wan Caicai and Li Yishui returned to their residence and continued to help the embroiderer in the mansion with some needlework. Mu Hanye, as always, played the role of a tyrant and took Huang Daxian to the city to stroll around and watch the fun. Only Shen Qianfeng and Ye Jin were left in the house.
"Are you still angry?" Shen Qianfeng laughed and reached out to pinch his pointed chin.
Ye Jin was filled with murderous intent, and his ears were red as if they were about to bleed.
"It's not a big deal." Shen Qianfeng helped him straighten his collar, "Will I take you to the city to relax?"
"No." Ye Jin grabbed his face.
There was no one around, so Shen Qianfeng leaned over and k!ssed him, "Be good."
"Let's go!" Ye Jin said fiercely, "Let's go to Lao Niu's snack shop."
"What are you doing there?" Shen Qianfeng was puzzled.
Ye Jin glanced at him and said, "I'll give you some pastries. Eat them so you can give birth to a son for me."
Shen Qianfeng: ...
"Are you going or not?" Ye Jin said with a bully face.
Shen Qianfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Go."
That's pretty much it. Ye Jin felt better and pulled his sleeve out of the door.
Just as Wei Yang said, the business of Niu's dim sum shop in the west of the city was very good. When the two of them went to see it, the door was already closed. They heard from the owner of the tea shop next door that they had sold out half an hour ago and went back.
"Since business is so good, why don't you make more?" Ye Jin ordered a pot of tea and chatted with the boss.
"I asked Lao Niu as well," said the tea shop owner. "He refused to tell me at first, but later on he accidentally revealed that the raw materials were hard to find, and that the business could only be open one day a month."
"Raw materials?" Ye Jin frowned slightly.
"Yeah, I don't know what it is." The tea shop owner was a little jealous, "Business is very good. I have made money in the past two years."
"Can it really help women get pregnant?" Ye Jin asked.
The tea shop owner nodded, "It's absolutely true. My wife got pregnant after eating his cakes. She's been pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl."
"Is that so?" Ye Jin smiled, chatted with him for a few more words, then stood up to say goodbye. However, he did not rush back to the villa, but took Shen Qianfeng to the alley at the back.
"Want to go in and take a look?" Shen Qianfeng asked him.
"I have been practicing medicine for many years, but I have never heard of any medicine that can make a woman pregnant after taking it." Ye Jin said, "Most of them achieve the goal slowly through conditioning, and there will not be such a fast effect. I want to see what it is. "
Shen Qianfeng nodded, hugged him and jumped into the wall.
Lao Niu's family didn't live in the snack shop. They would go home after selling everything. So the shop was empty at this time, which was convenient for the two of them to look around. The kitchen was very clean. Ye Jin walked around and found only a small branch with a few leaves hanging on it, in addition to the usual firewood, rice, oil and salt.
"What is it?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
"I don't recognize it." Ye Jin came closer and smelled it, "But the one that was placed so carefully in the cupboard must not be an ordinary branch."
"Are there any herbs you don't recognize?" Shen Qianfeng was surprised.
"Yes." Ye Jin was also puzzled, "Are there any herbs that I don't recognize?"
The way he talked to himself was so cute, Shen Qianfeng suppressed his laughter and hugged him from behind, "How about taking him back?"
"If we take them all back, we'll be discovered." Ye Jin only picked a small leaf from the tree and said, "Let's go. We'll go back and take a look."
Shen Qianfeng nodded and took him back to the villa.
Outside Wintersweet City, Oliver was squatting on the ground looking at it. He picked a tricolor flower and said, "It's a little wilted."
"The ground temperature is very high." Asher said, "I guess it was roasted."
"What on earth is that underground?" Oliver jumped and guessed, "A volcano?"
"I haven't seen any records in the county annals." Asher said, "Looking at the appearance, it's probably a hot spring."
"Otherwise, let's dig it out and take a look." Oliver said, "Guessing is not an option."
Asher nodded, "Go back and ask Wei Yang to send an army over."
"Going to take a look around again?" Oliver said, "We're all out anyway, so there's nothing to do when we go back."
Asher said, "Tired."
Oliver:...
I'm not tired, but you are!
Asher's mouth curled up, "Unless I k!ss my belly."
Oliver was angry, "I knew it!"
Young man, you are so dirty.
"The choice is yours." Asher hugged the next door and leaned slowly under the tree, "Or we can go back, or Ling'er can carry me around on his back."
Shen Xiaoshou emphasized, "This is outside!"
"What are you afraid of? It's just k!ssing the belly." Asher said, "Besides, no one saw it."
What a bad taste... Shen Xiaoshou humiliated the country by losing his power, "Just give me a k!ss."
Asher laughed out loud, lowered his head and k!ssed his cheek hard, "Little pig."
Oliver hummed, "Can you leave now?"
Asher took his hand and walked to the other side of the flower field together.
"It's so hot." After walking for a while, Oliver pulled his collar to fan himself.
"It's most likely a hot spring." Asher said, "Go back. If we find it's a hot spring in the future, I'll bring you here to soak after we dig it up."
Oliver nodded and followed him back, but felt a burn on his foot and cried out.
"What's wrong?" Asher asked.
"I'm scalded." Oliver lowered his head and saw a small crack on the ground, from which hot water was oozing out, and the color was actually a little red.
There was a faint vibration under his feet, Asher's expression changed, he picked him up by the waist, and jumped forward. Before Oliver had time to ask what was going on, he saw that the seam in the ground suddenly opened to both sides, and a large stream of hot water rose into the sky, spraying two or three people high. It fell in mid-air, like blood mist spreading all over the sky.
Although they were already some distance away, they still felt hot air blowing against their faces, accompanied by a strange smell. Oliver felt a little horrified and held his clothes tightly with her hands.
"Don't be afraid." Asher took him to a high slope and put him down. "It's just a spring gushing out. It's not a big deal."
Oliver looked down and saw that there seemed to be countless thunderbolts buried in the ground. Along with the dull sound of explosions, gaps opened one after another, and streams of red spurted out continuously, dyeing the air red. In just a moment, the place where the two of them were standing turned into a sea of red.
"Is this also a hot spring?" Oliver was shocked.
"It's not an ordinary hot spring, but it's almost the same." Asher said, "Let's go and inform Wei Yang first."
"I guess the news is spreading in the city again." Oliver said, "The blood is so red that it makes me feel sick just looking at it."
"With you here, are you still afraid that rumors will spread?" Asher smiled, hugged him and jumped into the air, riding his horse all the way to the general's mansion.
After Wei Yang heard about this, he was naturally shocked and quickly sent troops to investigate. In Liancheng Villa, Ye Jin was still holding the leaf with tweezers and looking at it.
"Your eyes are almost touching." Shen Qianfeng handed him a cup of tea, "Be obedient and take a rest for a while."
"What on earth is this thing?" Ye Jin was puzzled.
"Chirp!" The fur ball ran in, twisting and turning, with a flower on its head, it was so beautiful.
"Why are you the only one?" Ye Jin squatted down and rubbed it, "Where is the Wolf King?"
"Chirp." The furry little black bean's eyes were shining, and he threw himself into Ye Jin's arms, leaving a small ball of black mud on his white skirt.
Ye Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's so dirty, with all the oil and ash from the bottom of the pot, did he sneak into the kitchen?"
Maoqiu had just finished eating pork jerky, so he was in a good mood and continued to have fun.
"Give it a bath." Ye Jin handed the little phoenix to Shen Qianfeng, "I'll go change my clothes."
Shen Qianfeng took the fur ball and put it into the basin.
"Chirp!" The fur ball stretched out its wings to protest, asking for hot water!
Shen Qianfeng: ...
The fur ball has a serious expression and raises its little paw angrily.
Shen Qianfeng shook his head helplessly and had to go out to ask for hot water. When he returned to the house, he saw Maoqiu standing on the table, looking like he was about to grab the leaf. So he was startled and quickly tried to stop him. Unexpectedly, the sole of his foot slipped - there was nothing he could do, it was on the ground. Too much water.
In fact, according to Alliance Leader Shen's fighting power, this little accident had no lethality to him. But the bad thing was that after seeing him rushing towards him, Maoqiu was also frightened and instinctively spread his wings to fly away, but he flew in the wrong direction and rushed towards the blazing medicine furnace like a cannonball.
The incident happened so suddenly that Shen Qianfeng didn't have time to think too much. He jumped up and grabbed it back in his hand. As a result, his posture was too forced and he heard a snapping sound from his waist...
"What's wrong?" Ye Jin heard the noise in the house and rushed out in dishevel.
Shen Qianfeng put the little phoenix in his hand on the table, frowned and said in pain, "My waist is twisted."
Ye Jin opened her mouth wide.
The top three masters in the martial arts world can actually twist their waists...
The culprit was squatting on the table, his little black eyes looking innocent.
I clearly did nothing.
...
After a while, Shen Qianfeng lay on the bed and let Ye Jin massage him to relax him.
Ye Jin pressed and smiled.
Shen Qianfeng was helpless, feeling that he was really...
"It's just a leaf, why should you care about it?" After the massage, Ye Jin helped him put down his clothes, "It doesn't matter if it gets pecked by it."
"I'm afraid you'll be unhappy." Shen Qianfeng said honestly.
Ye Jin pinched his face and curled her lips, "Fool." She was still arrogant, but she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.
Shen Qianfeng also found it a little funny, so he held his hand and k!ssed it on his lips.
"Chirp." Maoqiu stood at the door, sneakily sticking half of his head in, feeling a little guilty.
"You are also a little troublemaker." Ye Jin stepped forward to pick it up and poked it with his hand, "Eat vegetables tonight."
Mao Qiu was heartbroken and sat weakly in the palm of his hand.
Green vegetables and so on.
Life is worse than death.
"Brother." Oliver called out from outside the door, "We are back."
Ye Jin went over and opened the door.
"Uh..." Seeing his sister-in-law's disheveled clothes and his brother lying on the bed, Shen Xiaoshou said consciously, "How about I go back first?"
"What are you thinking about?" Ye Jin knocked on his head, "Qian Feng's waist flashed."
"Pfft." Asher laughed heartlessly.
Shen Qianfeng suddenly wanted to fight.
"That's fine." Oliver circled around his brother, giving him an inhumane tour. "What did you do?"
"Chiu." The fur ball twisted and turned and hid under the bed. It was very clever.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Shen Qianfeng really didn't want to mention it anymore.
"It's okay not to mention this. We just went to the wilderness and saw something amazing." Oliver sat on the edge of the bed and told the story about the hot spring.
"It really is an underground hot spring." Ye Jin was surprised.
"Yeah." Oliver nodded, "I don't know what was in the water, but it was stinging with blood."
"The color is not surprising. Hot springs have many colors." Ye Jin said, "It's just that they usually erupt on a small scale. It's rare to see such a large number erupting at the same time."
"In this case, I know why there was a flood in the snowfield many years ago." Asher said.
"Do you suspect that the underground hot springs flow into the snowfield and melt the snow above?" Ye Jin followed his guess.
Asher nodded, "According to the records in the book, the floods many years ago were also foreshadowed by the blooming of flowers in the wilderness, just like now."
"Doesn't that mean there will be another flood in the snowfield?" Oliver said, "Fortunately, no one lives there now, otherwise it would be another catastrophic disaster."
"It's just a guess. It will take a while to see if it is specific." Asher said, "But this is not a big deal. The top priority is Cangmang Mountain."
"Young Master Liancheng has already sent a letter." Ye Jin said, "He said we'll get a response tomorrow."
"Having been isolated from the world for hundreds of years, will they be willing to let us in?" Oliver was unsure.
"Others may not be able to do it, but you can definitely do it." Asher said softly, "No one will dislike you."
Shen Xiaoshou felt a little embarrassed.
Ye Jin:...
Don't talk about love in front of me!
Is it okay?
During dinner later, when the two ladies heard the news that Leader Shen had sprained his waist and was in bed, they both expressed great shock and even planned to make pig's foot soup to nourish him.
Ye Jin couldn't hold his forehead tightly.
It's just a sprained waist, not pregnant.
Are you really so surprised...
