Qing Shui followed the sound and saw four relatively young men walking towards him, probably in their thirties. The man in the middle was speaking.
The man was wearing a snow-white warrior uniform, with a warm smile on his handsome face. His skin was very white, his eyes were dark and bright, and his sword eyebrows were slightly raised upwards, giving him a strong sense of heroism.
With a straight nose and moderately thick lips, he was looking at Duanmu Lingshuang. He was a very good-looking man, the kind of man who could be recognized by anyone regardless of age.
Relatively speaking, the other three men around him were a little different, but they all had an aristocratic demeanor, neatly dressed and elegant, at least on the outside.
Qing Shui heard the man calling him Ling Shuang before. How could this ice-sized woman have such good friends of the opposite sex?
Duanmu Lingshuang looked at the man with eyes that did not waver at all. She still had that cold gaze and didn't say anything, which made Qing Shui look amused.
Qing Shui looked at the handsome man opposite him and found that there was nothing strange about him. This probably wasn't the first time this happened, so he smiled and turned his attention to Qing Shui and Di Chen.
The light in his eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "I am Ling Shuang's friend Shanxi merchant. I am very happy to meet you two. I will be the host to let you all get to know each other. What do you think?"
The man spoke in a familiar manner, but his voice and intonation made no one feel disgusted. He had a strong ability to grasp people's emotions in a subtle way.
"My name is Qing Shui, and I am a friend of Miss Duanmu. Look at today... let's do this some other time. What do you think?" Qing Shui said with a smile.
"Well, it's a pity that I can't sit down with my brothers today, but we have a long way to go, so I won't disturb my brothers for another day." Shanxi Shang said to Qing Shui with a smile, but his eyes looked like he could take care of both Di Chen and Duanmu Lingshuang.
So that people wouldn't feel like he was just talking to Qing Shui and ignored the "landlord" and other people.
When the Shanxi merchant arrived, he glanced at Duanmu Lingshuang again. From that look, Qing Shui immediately knew that this Shanxi merchant liked Duanmu Lingshuang and was probably obsessed with her.
It's not good for such an outstanding man to like anyone but an ice cube. Qing Shui shook his head and felt sad for this Shanxi merchant. How could it be so easy to get this woman?
"Miss Duanmu, how about this Shanxi merchant?" Qing Shui thought for a while and asked.
"What is it?" Duanmu Lingshuang glanced at Qing Shui angrily, with such an expression in his cold eyes, it felt a bit like ice flames.
"I mean, what kind of person is this Shanxi merchant? Does he seem to be quite powerful?" Qing Shui looked at Duanmu Lingshuang with a smile, his eyes not evasive at all.
Avoiding Qing Shui's playful gaze, she said slowly: "The Jin family is the master of Duanmu City, and he is the leader of his generation in the Jin family. Whether the Jin family can advance to the next level depends on him.
"
Although Duanmu Lingshuang said very little, he revealed information about the Jin family and the Shanxi merchants. The Jin family is a big family, and the Shanxi merchants are the best young generation in the Jin family, and will be in charge of the Jin family in the future.
"You seem to be very prejudiced against him?" The three of them continued walking along the street, Qing Shui also asked casually.
"I am also very prejudiced against you!" Duanmu Lingshuang said without looking back.
Qing Shui touched his nose. If he hadn't been kind to her, he would have been kicked out by her long ago. Di Chen next to him smiled and looked around, silently.
"Sister Chen, let's go there to look at the jewelry." Duanmu Lingshuang smiled at Di Chen.
After all, it's been a week, and the two women can still get along, but one is cold and the other indifferent. Qing Shui really doesn't know what they can talk about when they get together.
"Well, okay!" Di Chen smiled at Qing Shui, and then walked towards the row of jewelry stores with Duanmu Lingshuang.
Qing Shui followed the two women and looked around from time to time to see if he could find anything he was interested in. There were also some "street stalls" on both sides of the street.
After all, the people who can own shops on such streets are wealthy people, so there are relatively many people setting up street vendors, and the things they buy are mostly small items.
Just when Qing Shui was about to follow the two women into the store, he saw an old woman listlessly setting up a stall somewhere. The jewelry on it was also necklaces, and many of them were shabby and worn.
It was beautiful, so almost everyone walked away without even looking at the shabby things on the street stalls.
What attracts Qing Shui is that the old woman is also a warrior. Qing Shui's specific strength is innate, but a little vague. Although she is very old, her body is very strong, her simple clothes are very clean, and next to her is a little boy, five or six years old.
He was very thin and his life wave power was very weak. He snuggled up next to the old woman and fell asleep.
Qing Shui squatted at the stall and looked at the no less than a hundred items on it. Not only were they worn out, some were even damaged, but there were still weak spiritual energy fluctuations on them.
Amulets, silver necklaces, white stone necklaces, black iron chains, fluorescent pendants...Qing Shui actually found a few things he was familiar with.
Suddenly Qing Shui felt an intermittent and powerful spiritual energy fluctuation. Qing Shui followed his gaze and saw that it was a gray pendant, broken, and even one corner was missing. On it was a diagram of the Nine Palaces.
Nine Palace Pendant!
"Mother-in-law, who is your person next to you? He must have been ill for a long time!" Qing Shui asked casually while continuing to search.
At that moment, Qing Shui felt a powerful aura flashing from the old woman's body, and then she sighed: "He is my grandson. He is born with deficiencies and has been like this since he was born."
"Why don't your mother-in-law find an alchemist for him? Is this going to work?" Qing Shui saw that the boy could only live for another half year at most.
"Look, he was born weak and his internal organs began to dry up. This kind of symptoms can only be caused by a magical elixir, or a magical drug that can regenerate human flesh and white bones to make him reborn and make up for everything in his body. It's a pity that those
The things are too rare, and some of them need to be processed by alchemists..." As she spoke, the old woman sighed again.
At this time, the old woman was also looking at Qing Shui. She didn't expect to talk so much to this young man unknowingly, and she felt a lot better. She glanced at Qing Shui in surprise, and a look of surprise flashed through her old eyes, but it was very strange.
Retreat quickly.
"Thank you, young man, for accompanying me, an old woman, who has talked so much. Let's see if there is anything you like here. If you like it, just take it." The old woman looked up at the sleeping little boy and said.
"Mother-in-law, I said I could cure him, do you believe it?" Qing Shui looked at the old woman and said seriously.
