Chapter 25 The Tranquility Before the Storm Comes

After listening to Tao Qiqi's explanation, everyone immediately understood.

"It seems that we have to be more careful in the future. We won't be able to save people casually on the road in the future." Fang Yu said, feeling a little scared just thinking about it.

Tao Qiqi raised her lips to comfort: "Rescuing people depends on the situation, and the impact will not be big. But no matter what the reason is in the future, it is best not to take people in casually before our team reaches the south and separate."

Jiang Ye nodded and agreed: "That's right. Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the open. If you take people in at will and fail to protect them all, you are a spy. Thanks to Mr. Tao for taking action quickly, otherwise we might have to sleep in jail tonight."

Tao Qiqi echoed: "Besides, the person just now probably won't let it go, and may still find ways to get close to us, so in the future, no matter it is the person just now or whoever approaches us, everyone should be careful and protect themselves .”

"Yes." The group of people nodded when they received Tao Qiqi's reminder.

"Okay, it's getting late, everyone go to bed earlier." After Tao Qiqi finished speaking, she yawned and was the first to crawl back to bed to sleep.

Because of what happened just now, it will be the middle of the night if I don't sleep.

And who knows if anything else will happen later.

The most important thing is to seize the time to sleep while this is happening.

Tao Qiqi fell asleep as soon as she lay down.

Then everyone else went back to their places to sleep.

The next day—

Just after dawn, there were bustling footsteps and the sound of shop doors opening from the street below.

Tao Qiqi was leaning against the window, and with her own keen ability, she could hear clearly what was going on downstairs, so she woke up early.

Looking at the group of people sleeping soundly, Tao Qiqi did not disturb their sweet dreams, and simply prepared to close her eyes and enter the space to meditate.

But as soon as she closed her eyes, she suddenly thought of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai.

I was thinking to see if I could bring Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai into the space. If I could, I would try to see if absorbing the aura of the space would change them.

If there is a change, no matter how much, it is not bad for them.

Thinking about it, Tao Qiqi opened her eyes, and tiptoedly sent Xiaoheixiaobai who was sleeping next to her into the space.

I didn't expect it to be a success!

It seems that apart from her, the host, who can freely enter and exit her space, other things or animals can also be sent in.

This is a nice find.

In the end, Tao Qiqi closed her eyes in satisfaction, and her spiritual consciousness also entered the space.

Looking at the little black and white little ones with shining eyes in the space, Tao Qiqi knew that they must have feelings.

"Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai, play here for a while, but don't cause damage, you know? I'll sit here for a while. I'll take you out later." After Tao Qiqi finished speaking, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai seemed to be listening. As if I understood, I nodded and ran away to play.

Tao Qiqi began to meditate on the futon by the well.

When she heard something moving outside, she sent Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai out of the space and placed them under the quilt.

Because of the thrilling thing that happened last night, everyone got up early and decided to leave the city and continue on their way after having breakfast.

Of course, on the way out of the city, Tao Qiqi didn't forget to buy some steamed stuffed buns when they met a seller, and also bought two beggar chickens, so that they didn't need to light a fire to cook at noon today.

However, just after buying the beggar's chicken, Tao Qiqi saw a group of people walking to the market carrying a lot of fish.

"Hello, these fish, are you going to sell them in the market?" Tao Qiqi hurriedly called to them.

The old man at the head replied with a smile: "Yes, but do you want to buy it, my lord?"

"How do you sell this fish?" Tao Qiqi asked.

"This big one costs twenty cents a pound, and this small one costs eighty cents a barrel." The old man replied.

Tao Qiqi took a look and saw that the big fish were hung with dry straw. There were crucian carp and carp, but most of them were dead. They looked quite fresh, and they must have died not long ago.

The small fish were packed in buckets, and all of them were still alive and kicking.

Seeing that Tao Qiqi hadn't spoken, the old man smiled and said, "The price is pretty good at this juncture. Originally, the fish raised in our village had to wait until the end of the year to sell in the pond. But now, the underground well After there was no water, the water in the fishpond was also dry, so we had to fish out the fish and sell them.”

The young man who was carrying the fish with the old man saw this and also agreed: "It's not like that, just us fish will be sold out in a short time if they are carried to the market."

"I want these two buckets of small fish, and a few more big fish. But can you wait for me? I have to buy a big bucket. Don't worry, my carriage is just ahead. After I buy it with you , you can arrange for someone to wait for me there, and after I buy the big barrel, I can return your barrel to you, is that possible?"

"Okay, okay." The old man nodded quickly and agreed.

Then Tao Qiqi picked a few big fish that were still alive, and then selected two buckets of small fish.

After weighing, Tao Qiqi personally put the big fish in the bucket temporarily, and sneakily put some spiritual spring water in the bucket by the way, of course it couldn't be seen by the naked eye.

After paying the money and sending the fish back to the team, Tao Qiqi hurried to the market and bought an extra large wooden barrel.

Then dump all the fish into the vat.

Every time she poured a bucket, she used an excuse to reach out and stir in the bucket twice, and then put some spirit spring water into it.

After pouring the fish into the big bucket, Qiqi returned the buckets of peaches to the villagers.

After such a toss, the whole morning passed, but Tao Qiqi and the others would be fish eaters in the future.

Finally, he left the city happily.

"Master Tao, did you buy so many fish just now to raise them all the way?" Jiang Ye couldn't help asking curiously on the road.

"Well, if we keep it like this for the time being, there are so many of us, and we can't actually eat more than a few meals. I will try to process it again when I go to the city to rest next time." Tao Qiqi replied.

In fact, the most important thing was to find opportunities to put some small fish into the fields in the space to raise, so she bought more small fish.

With the discovery last night, she has no choice but to use it. It is completely fine to raise fish in the rice fields, so that she will have more fish than she can eat in the future.

After hearing Tao Qiqi's explanation, Jiang Ye stopped asking any more questions.

Drive the carriage and move on.

But surprisingly, they were very calm during the past two days.

They didn't meet the person from the inn that day, nor did they meet anyone else trying to get close to them.

Not even a killer.

At noon, Tao Qiqi and the others chose a shaded place against a mountain to rest.

"Qiqi, since we met that incident at the inn that night, the person you mentioned has never appeared, and there has been nothing unusual in the past two days. Could it be that we are too sensitive?" Fang Yu said as he struggled. Porridge looked at Tao Qiqi and asked doubtfully.

Tao Qiqi, who was sneaking water from the spiritual spring to the fish, stopped what she was doing after hearing Fang Yu's words, looked at Fang Yu and asked, "Have you ever heard a word called the calm before the storm?"

Fang Yu didn't understand, shook his head and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It means, even though nothing has happened in the past few days, maybe they are planning some big conspiracy." As soon as Tao Qiqi finished speaking, there was some movement in the grass not far away.

Tao Qiqi turned her head to look, and then whispered to everyone: "Talk about Cao Cao, this is not Cao Cao."

After everyone listened to Tao Qiqi's words, they looked where Tao Qiqi had just looked and saw a figure crawling out of the dry grass.

Isn't this the person who was kicked out of the room by Tao Qiqi with a hidden weapon that night?
