Zhang Huaping realized she might have said something wrong.
Because everyone was silently watching her with an indescribable strange excitement, their eyes glowing as if they were witnessing a beauty bathing, fiery hot.
The three Medical Fairies couldn't help but ask, "What is the Red House?"
Zhang Huaping: "..."
Your focus is a bit off.
But she still braced herself to explain about the Red House.
Everyone heard it, and the emotions felt like they were opening a new adventure map!
Once you achieve a certain level of affinity with an NPC, they'll voluntarily take her out, which belongs to another type of adventure: portable exploration?
"Quick, please take her away."
Beside her, the Medical Fairy suddenly pleaded, "If you can protect her, please take her out, let her see the outside world."
After all, she thought about it carefully.
This Sword Fairy staying here doesn't serve much purpose, just two people in the clinic are enough.
Might as well place her outside for adventure.
Considering Embers baby, she had long wanted to send it out for adventures.
But her baby is simply a lazy bug, an extreme shut-in girl, heavily procrastination-prone, won't budge or leave the mountain.
Now forcing her to leave is actually quite good!
Like that Red House, it's quite interesting.
Of course, the premise is that Zhang Huaping can protect her, otherwise, Embers dead would be a huge loss.
Zhang Huaping was stunned, feeling incredulous, "Let me take her away?"
Beside her, Jiucai Rong also came in:
"Not giving her to you, just taking her out for a spin, protect her..."
"This is a magical artifact just forged by our manor, still warm, you can take it out for performance testing."
Zhang Huaping couldn't understand what kind of person could say such terrifying words in such a tone.
Just forged magical artifact, still warm?
Testing its performance?
The implication is, there will be more in the future?
Her pupils quaked, her whole body numbed!
Wouldn't she be silenced for this?
Zhang Huaping felt like her death was approaching, she also needed to take her warm body to become Blade, Spear, Sword and Halberd?
Ultimately.
Zhang Huaping walked away dazedly, through the Teleportation Array, only to find she wasn't dreaming.
Pingchang City.
The old shopkeeper also looked at her returning with the Medical Fairy in shock, and his scalp tingled immediately, "What's going on? How did you bring back a ghost?"
Although business dealings are always mutual.
According to custom.
The trading parties would give some near-expiry items that couldn't be sold, like the Continuing Ash Talisman.
But last time we gifted two soon-to-expire Continuing Ash Talismans, this time the opponent gifted an about-to-expire ghost?
The old shopkeeper, experienced as he was, sensed it.
This Embers hasn't got much more than a month before it disappears.
The expiry timeline is similar to what we gifted with the Continuing Ash Talisman.
It's just the Demon Cultivator's gifting... um, quite innovative.
Seeing the mountain bandits truly starting to grow some business acumen, the old shopkeeper mentally upgraded the enemy's alert level.
"Let's talk back at the shop."
Zhang Huaping said in a deep voice, taking the Sword Fairy, who was looking around excitedly, directly back to the store.
Upon knowing the person was a sword, even the old shopkeeper was greatly shocked.
Especially knowing that because she had "dreams," she was specifically beaten to death, had her tendons and bones extracted...
Brutal!
This isn't ordinary brutality.
The Demon Cultivators at the manor, they've done all sorts of evil.
After digesting for a while, the old shopkeeper raised the alert level again, sighed:
"What are you planning to do next? Sending into Red House requires poetry, song, and dance! Plus her appearance... I'm afraid there's no precedent, no man would love her."
"How could no man notice?" Sword Fairy said warmly, "Sir, as the saying goes, with no women in the heart, the unsheathed sword is divine."
"Sword Immortals with a sword in their heart will all prefer me, the courtesan type."
"I'll perform a sword dance for you."
She sang and danced, twisting enchantingly.
"A smile in the Jianghu waves surging, all earthly dust forgotten, what of the past to speak, a smile to the heavens, never aged, yet heroic spirit to be, sipping a cup facing the moon in loneliness."
"Isn't it very ancient style? Has Jianghu feeling?" Sword Fairy asked, though she studied medicine, she also was a star in the school's dance club.
The old shopkeeper was mentally overwhelmed.
Looking at the dance which was different from traditional classical, twisted into noodle style, he fell into prolonged silence.
"I indeed have no ability to send her to Red House." Zhang Huaping knew the Sword Fairy was so optimistic because she didn't know she had died.
She herself was just a Loose Cultivator, held no power, didn't know anyone influential.
Sending her to Red House is very difficult.
But it's better than being tortured at the manor.
Such is the cruelty of the world, they can only struggle desperately to survive.
"Bringing her home might easily accumulate Yin Qi, affecting your daughter who lacks cultivation, not to mention she might suddenly go mad anytime."
The old shopkeeper, out of goodwill, considered, "I'll contact the owner, see if there's any help."
Soon, Jiao Chiwan came over, taking Zhang Huaping and the Sword Fairy to a separate courtyard.
"Elders want to see you alone." Jiao Chiwan said to the Sword Fairy.
Half an hour later.
The Sword Fairy crossed various pavilions, walked into a separate courtyard.
She always felt the layout was familiar, but couldn't recall where from.
In the yard.
Beside the well, there was a quiet young girl reading.
She had a refined demeanor, with an indescribable mystery and elegance, "Your scent, turns out to be Blood Separation Flower, from the manor, I heard your philosophy doesn't align?"
The Sword Fairy nodded her head.
"My name is Jiao Wuyu." she spoke.
The Sword Fairy nodded again.
"Our family is surnamed Jiao." Jiao Wuyu emphasized.
"And then?" Sword Fairy was puzzled.
Jiao Wuyu showed some surprise, "Originally, that stronghold was Jiao Family Stronghold, survivors fled to Pingchang City."
"After all, from a great mountain stronghold, always a few can escape."
"But we were originally a prominent family outside the city, now reduced to a small family, with no ancestors remaining."
"Not even the current Red Sun relates to us."
Sword Fairy still didn't understand.
Jiao Wuyu saw her puzzled face, shook her head and said:
"Seems you young ones don't know things from a hundred years ago, alright, I've heard about your situation, I can help."
Jiao Wuyu smiled, "As long as you do something for me."
She took out a blueprint.
"Did you see this house layout down the mountain? That's precisely this courtyard we're in!"
Sword Fairy looked at the blueprint.
Finally understood why the layout felt so familiar.
Because this house, was exactly the courtyard where Su Yuniang temporarily stayed, even the well's layout was identical.
"You recognize it?" Jiao Wuyu noticed her expression.
"Yes." Sword Fairy didn't hide, "It's the courtyard down the manor, with a brother and sister living there."
Jiao Wuyu's expression finally showed a hint of nostalgia, looking toward Sword Casting Manor's direction, "They are my children, haven't seen them for over a century."
The Sword Fairy felt she stumbled onto a major scoop.
This is quite sensational.
Then this woman paused, delivering a terrifying piece of information: "Do you recognize Youzhu Bookstore's middle-aged scholar?"
The Sword Fairy's expression shook, the flame of gossip burning in her heart.
Husband?
"Yes." she smiled gently, her face showing a nostalgic expression, "Just like you think, seems he's still there, I want to connect with them."
"I'll initiate a small-scale raid, I'll lead the team to rescue them."
The Sword Fairy was stunned.
A thousand-mile quest rescue, sudden plot battle, is about to unfold?
