Chapter 33: Dividing the Treasure
Xiao Se frowned and pretended to be angry and said, "Why are you here for no reason? If it weren't for me just now, I'm afraid you would have died."
"I" was glared at by Xiao Se, and Xiao Yixian avoided his gaze a little. He was silent for a while, then smiled awkwardly and said, "I... I have taken a fancy to a medicinal herb and want to pick it. That's it."
"You really can't even lie. There are cliffs everywhere under this cliff, and it's bare. Apart from the white orchid fruit on the top of the cliff, where can you find any medicinal herbs?" Xiao Se rolled his eyes at the Little Medical Fairy, pointed at the cave, and sneered, "I think you are interested in that cave."
Hearing this, Xiao Yixian's heart shrank. She subconsciously reached to her waist through Xiao Se's armpit and took out a packet of medicine powder. Just as she was about to sprinkle it, Xiao Se's voice rang in her ears again, "The two of us are hanging on the cliff now. If you want to die together, then go ahead."
"You... you don't want to kill people to silence them, do you? I'm telling you, don't do anything rash. Many of the mercenaries above have received favors from me. If they knew that you killed me, they would never let you go." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yixiang was speechless.
"It's not that I'm going to kill anyone, but as for something else?" With a playful smile, Xiao Se's gaze slowly moved down to the bud of the Little Medical Fairy that was about to bloom.
"Ah, you rascal!" Being stared at by Xiao Se, the Little Medical Fairy was about to sprinkle the medicine powder without thinking twice.
It seemed that the joke had gone a bit too far, so Xiao Se immediately spoke out to stop him, saying, "Okay, okay, you have no butt and no breasts, I have no interest in you, I was just joking with you."
"Hmph, if you dare to mess around, I'll destroy you along with you." The Little Medical Fairy snorted and clenched the medicine bag in her hand tightly, as if she was going to throw it away if they disagreed.
Xiao Se raised his chin slightly towards the location of the cave and said calmly: "Since we are here, let's go and take a look together. Hurry up."
After saying that, Xiao Se didn't wait for the other party to reply. He tightened his right hand around Xiao Yixian's slender waist, exerted force with his left hand, tapped the cliff lightly with his toes, and jumped into the dark cave using the air to gain momentum.
Letting go of Xiao Yixian's waist, Xiao Se raised his right hand, and a ball of bluish-white flame rose from his hand, instantly illuminating the entire cave.
Staring blankly at the dancing flame in Xiao Se's hand, the Little Medical Fairy exclaimed, "Condensing real fire, are you a fourth-grade alchemist?"
Xiao Se shook his head, took out a torch from his ring, lit it, and handed it to the Little Medical Fairy, saying, "I'm not that powerful. This is just beast fire. Let's go in."
Taking the torch, Xiao Yixian nodded, and with a nervous mood, followed Xiao Se into the cave.
After entering the cave, Xiao Se took out several torches, lit them, and threw them upside down into the cave like a hidden weapon. Suddenly, his vision became clear.
"Wow, there are so many precious herbs." Seeing the medicine garden in the corner of the cave, the little medical fairy's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly walked to the flower garden, as if she had found a treasure.
Then he looked at the stone table in the center of the cave and found that two of the three stone boxes had been opened. He immediately asked Xiao Se, "Has anyone been here?"
"No one has been here. I took away the things in the stone box. I came out to check when I heard some noise outside." Xiao Se spoke nonsense without blushing or beating his heart, then took off the mask on his head.
Seeing Xiao Se's delicate and tender face, Xiao Yixian's pretty face instantly blushed, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect you to be so young. I admire you for daring to come out and venture into the Magic Beast Mountain Range alone at such a young age."
"You're not that great either, we're the same." Xiao Se curled his lips, stood in front of the first stone box, and slowly said, "Let me make it clear in advance. Although I don't mind giving you a share, I won't give you the things in the first two boxes. Let's take a look at the remaining box. If it's more useful to you, I'll give it to you."
"Hehe. Thank you then..." The little medical fairy walked to Xiao Se's side with a smile. It must be said that women are creatures that depend on their appearance. Ever since she saw Xiao Se's appearance, her previous vigilance seemed to have disappeared.
Under the expectant gaze of the Little Medical Fairy, Xiao Se took out the key and opened the stone box, and a colorful scroll came into view.
"Seven-Colored Poison Sutra." Xiao Se slowly spread out the scroll, and the eyes of the little medical fairy beside him lit up instantly.
Seeing that Xiao Yixian was almost dying of anticipation, Xiao Se smiled slightly, gathered the scroll, and handed it to Xiao Yixian, chuckling, "Although I am an alchemist, this poison scripture is useless to me. Seeing that you are almost drooling, I will give it to you."
"Humph, who's drooling?" The little doctor's pretty face blushed and pursed her lips. She avoided Xiao Se's gaze and murmured in a low voice, "Thank you."
Xiao Se smiled faintly and said, "Didn't we agree on this beforehand? If it's useful to you, I'll give it to you." Then he looked at the herb garden and gold coins in the corner, "It's time to divide the following things."
"Yes." The Little Medical Fairy raised her beautiful white chin and smiled, "This cave was originally discovered by you. Just take whatever you want. It's worth the trip to get this Seven-Colored Poison Scripture."
Xiao Se touched his fair chin, stood in front of the medicine shop, picked the Ice Spirit Flame Grass, and then picked a few herbs for refining the third-grade Qi-restoring Pill. He turned to the Little Medical Immortal and said, "I just want the Ice Spirit Flame Grass and these herbs."
"You have a really bad eye. You picked the best ones. But there are so many rare herbs here. Is it okay to give them all to me?" The little medical fairy pouted her red lips and asked with a chuckle.
"Haha, the rest are of little use to me. If you like them, I'll give them all to you." Xiao Se chuckled and raised his hand.
Little Medical Fairy smiled and said, "That's right, I almost forgot that you are an alchemist, so I'd be very disrespectful to refuse you."
After saying that, the Little Medical Fairy walked to the herb garden, picked herbs, and asked casually, "Come to think of it, I don't know your name yet!"
"My name is Xiao Se, Se like in Gu Se." Xiao Se said lightly.
"Xiao Se...Xiao Se is a good name." The little medical fairy nodded slightly and continued picking herbs.
"These gold coins belong to me." Xiao Se pointed to the hundreds of thousands of gold coins in the corner.
"You can take them all. I only like medicinal herbs. Gold coins are dispensable to me. Besides, this cave was originally discovered by you. I have already taken great advantage of you." The Little Medical Fairy answered without hesitation.
Xiao Se nodded slightly, raised his hand, and put all the gold coins into the ring.
After a while, Xiao Yixian finished picking the herbs.
"I'm planning to go back to the herb-picking team. What about you? Do you want to come with me?" The little medical fairy looked at Xiao Se with a smile.
"I plan to practice in the Monster Mountain Range for a while and not return to the herb-collecting team." Xiao Se shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Xiao Yixian again, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes, and said seriously: "You'd better not tell anyone about what happened today, not even your maid. I don't mind, but money can move people's hearts, and people's hearts are the most unpredictable things. In the face of absolute interests, those mercenaries will not care whether you saved them or not."
Hearing Xiao Se's warning, Xiao Yixian nodded in shock and said seriously: "I understand. Then you should be careful in the Warcraft Mountains. I don't want to lose you as a friend."
As if by magic, the little medical fairy stretched out her jade hand toward Xiao Se.
Xiao Se nodded slightly and held Xiao Yixian's soft and delicate little hand, "Sure."
