Guide to the Empress becoming a God

Chapter 263
Bi Cheng also agreed with Hua Chang's statement and nodded sharply.

They had heard from the caravan guys that the pills made by the Liao family were very effective in preventing auditory hallucinations, and they would work as soon as they were taken. Passers-by had to buy his pills if they wanted to cross Fenmu Ridge safely.

But the pills are extremely expensive, someone from the Liao family sells pills at the entrance of Fenmu Ridge, and the price of a pill is three taels of silver, which ordinary people can't afford.

Because Shen Yuyun had saved the life of the future heir of the Liao family, the head of the Liao family pardoned the money that Shen Yuyun's caravan paid for the pills, and the pills were given away for free.

Ning Fengzi had never been to Fenmuling before. Although he was proficient in alchemy, he didn't know much about this pill, so he was very interested in this pill that can prevent auditory hallucinations. He asked Shen Yuyun, "Master, have you heard about Fenmu? Song on the Ridge?"

Shen Yuyun shook his head: "I'm a mortal now, and I can't resist the magic of monsters and beasts. Besides, I have such a large caravan with me. I dare not take this risk."

"However, based on what I know about the Liao family, I don't think the Liao family was responsible for the singing. Because of such evil spirits in Burning Wood Ridge, the Liao family's business is also affected, and even the house is suffering from the singing. The power of the Liao family will not cut off the great benefits of cross-ling trade for the sake of such a small profit."

Yanyan was curious: "The Liao family has a special workshop to make pills? Just to make it easier for pedestrians to cross the mountain? If they want to do business, they can still trade when they go east."

Yan Yan had already memorized the map by heart. The Eagle Rail City where the Liao family was located was the checkpoint of the southeast trade, and the commerce and trade extended in all directions. It is impossible for a Fenmu Ridge to block the money.

Shen Yiyun said: "There is no special workshop for pills, but the Liao family must make pills every year for sacrifices. All members of the Liao clan are given twelve pills, and they must take one every month to ensure a year's safety. Otherwise , the Liao family members are more likely to have an accident than the people living in the city."

Bi Cheng scratched his head: "Could this voice be aimed specifically at the Liao family?"

Shen Yuyun was also a little puzzled about Bi Cheng's question: "What you said seems to be like this. I heard from members of the Liao clan that some Liao family members who did not take the pills were lured to Fenmuling by the singing in the city. A few years ago, the Liao family died a lot of people because of this, and the population is much thinner than before. But the people in the city say that the singing can't reach Eagle Rail City at all."

Hua Chang smiled and said, "Could it be that his family did something bad, and some evil spirits took revenge, haha~"

Shen Yuyun shook his head: "The specific reason is not clear, but because the people in the city and travelers will inevitably pass through Fenmuling, they all know that the Liao family's pills can ward off evil spirits on the mountain, so they all ask the Liao family for it. After a long time, the Liao family simply Just make more pills, in addition to the supply of the family, specially provide them to those who need to cross the mountains. Gradually, it has formed the usual business like today."

Ning Fengzi: "Have you participated in the sacrifice of the Liao family?"

Shen Yuyun shook his head: "When I came last year, the masters of the Liao family invited me to participate in the Liao family's sacrificial ceremony, but since the departure date of the caravan has already been set, it is inconvenient to modify it, so I declined."

Everyone was chatting about Fenmuling and the Liao family, and suddenly someone beside him interrupted: "Thank you for the food!"

Then everyone remembered that there was another Bai Miao in this room.

Bai Miao put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and cupped his hands to the others: "Lansheng is really lucky. I can meet all of you kind people on such a stormy night. They not only allow me to share the same room, but also enjoy tea and meals. It's a pity that Wansheng All the luggage was washed away by the river, and there was nothing to repay."

Bi Cheng said with a smile: "They are all away from home. Helping each other is a matter of course, and trivial matters are nothing to worry about."

Ning Fengzi smiled coldly: "All Mr. Bai's packages were washed away by the water, but I didn't see that Mr. Bai was even slightly disappointed. You are penniless now and you have to go on your way tomorrow. You are an open-minded man." man!"

Ning Fengzi's words clearly contained doubts and sarcasm.

He doesn't seem to be pure and kind-hearted, obviously he doesn't believe Bai Miao's words at all.

Shen Yuyun and Hua Chang did not speak.

The two of them obviously had similar thoughts to Ning Fengzi's, and they didn't quite believe this man who suddenly appeared in the field of rainstorm and whose appearance was too outstanding.

Bai Miao also saw that these people questioned him, but he didn't see any signs of annoyance. He laughed nonchalantly and said, "I'm not a wealthy person, but I'm just a commoner scholar. Only a few taels of silver, two pieces of cloth shirts, it’s not like I’ve lost a lot of gold, silver and jewels, besides, I have a little knowledge of poetry and books, and I’m a little poor at learning, so I can always get a bite to eat in a private school in any town I go to, and I won’t be hungry. Belly. Why do you need to worry about the mere things outside your body?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bi Cheng immediately clapped his hands and praised: "Well said! Don't be burdened by things outside of you, Mr. Bai is truly an open-minded person!"

Recently, Bi Cheng has been diligently reading the books that Yanyan gave him. In addition to practicing exercises, there are also many books on wisdom and principles in those books. Bi Cheng has made a lot of progress recently.

Bai Miao laughed and said, "This man is indeed a wise man!"

It was the first time for Bi Cheng to be praised by a scholar, and he blushed in embarrassment: "Mr. Bai, thank you!"

The two of them felt quite congenial in their pleasantries, and they were about to have a deep chat, but Ning Fengzi sneered: "Is Mr. Bai really a master? Hmph, I don't think so. On a stormy night like today, evil spirits are most likely to appear and confuse people." , Mister You Qi has such an outstanding appearance, I think he looks more like a monster!"

While speaking, Ning Fengzi's palm had sacrificed spiritual power.He is a spiritual root of the fire element, and his whole body was immediately wrapped in red and white flames, and his eyes were full of murderous intent when he looked at Bai Miao.

Bai Miao's expression changed instantly, and she pointed at Ning Fengzi with trembling fingers: "You, you, you, why are you on fire? Who is the monster between us? Help..."

Yanyan didn't expect that Ning Fengzi would strike after finishing a sentence, so she quickly stood up and stood in front of Bai Miao: "Mr. Ning, don't be impulsive, he has no spiritual power fluctuations, and he has not done any evil things. It's inappropriate to deal with a frail scholar!"

Facing Ning Fengzi, Yanyan was actually very unconfident, but this was the person Canghua called for, and she would get in for that ancestor even if she risked her life.

Yanyan was also completely speechless to Canghua.

The last time I bought furniture, I had to ask for someone else's plaque.

This time I want a man again...

The ghost knows what the ancestor will want next time.

Yanyan felt that she was following Canghua's orders now, and dared not pick the moon if she wanted the stars.She had never spoiled her own brother Yan Luoming so much.

Ning Fengzi sneered: "Miss Yan, I did this for the sake of your caravan. If this person is a big monster, if you don't subdue him before he makes a move, you will be killed when he starts to harm people in the middle of the night." That's too late."

Yan Yan frowned: "What evidence does Mr. Ning have to insist that he is a big monster?"
