"Take a look at this first!" Jiang Xingchen took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Mei'er.
"What is this...ah!" Meier took it in confusion. There was a rustling sound in the bag. When she opened it, she immediately let out an exclamation. The bag was full of yellow and orange crystal coins, which made her eyes dazzle.
If the little girl was just surprised when she saw the meat, then she was shocked now. She really couldn't imagine how her brother could get back so much money after being out for a day.
"This morning, I went to the market and heard someone talking about the Bauhinia Mercenary Group..." Soon, Jiang Xingchen gave an overview of what happened today.
The little girl opened her mouth slightly and stared at Jiang Xingchen blankly. Her thinking was a little slow. She really couldn't believe what he said. She felt like she was making up a story.
"You don't believe it, right?" Jiang Xingchen laughed, and took out another piece of white silk: "Look, this is the contract I signed with the Bauhinia Mercenary Group!"
Mei'er took it and opened it, and looked at it carefully twice. The expression on her little face slowly changed, the smile accumulated little by little, and finally turned into ecstasy, and she actually burst into laughter that was completely beyond her age.
"Hahahaha... It's 50-50, brother! You're awesome, we've made a fortune this time..."
After that, the little girl hugged Jiang Xingchen's head and kissed him on the face. Ten pounds of meat, three hundred topaz coins, and cooperation with the Bauhinia mercenary group were like three waves that continuously hit her heart, and she was filled with joy.
Emotions almost completely enveloped her thinking, making her consciousness somewhat blank.
"Haha!" Jiang Xingchen touched the place where the little girl kissed him and smiled. Seeing Mei'er happy, he felt indescribably happy.
However, this was not the end. Jiang Xingchen waited for Meier's laughter to subside a little, and then said: "Also, I have activated the Yuanquan!"
"What?" Meier's laughter suddenly came, and the words "Activate Yuanquan" were like a thunder blast in her ears. It took a long time for her to react.
"Brother activated the Yuanquan?" Meier asked as if murmuring.
"Yeah!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and nodded.
"Ugh!" Two lines of tears welled up, and Mei'er suddenly cried out. She was only thirteen years old, and no matter how strong she was, she was still a child. Just because Jiang Xingchen's predecessor wanted to activate Yuanquan, she had endured a lot of hardships in recent years.
The pressure that was beyond ordinary people suddenly relaxed at this moment, and he could no longer control his emotions.
Jiang Xingchen stretched out his hand, gently held the little girl in his arms, and said softly: "Mei'er won't have to suffer anymore. Just enjoy yourself at home. Brother, I can play with you whatever you want. No more
I won’t ignore you like I did before when I was practicing..."
"Woo~" When the little girl heard this, she cried even louder, making Jiang Xingchen a little at a loss. His original intention was to make the little girl happy, but he didn't expect that under the huge impact of joy, she started crying endlessly.
Jiang Xingchen, who was a little helpless, could only pat Mei'er's back and comfort her silently.
After a while, Meier's crying gradually became quieter, her breathing became even, and the room became quiet...
Just when Jiang Xingchen thought Meier was asleep, the little girl suddenly raised her head and asked: "Brother, how come you have the secret recipe to remove the smell of meat? I remember you have never had anything to do with the kitchen... Also, Yuan Quan
How to activate it again!"
Jiang Xingchen shuddered suddenly and exhaled: "I was scared to death. Why are you so startled?"
"Answer me quickly! Don't hide anything, or I'll ignore you!" The little girl ignored Jiang Xingchen's words and asked with her mouth raised.
"Then...do you remember that I was always in a daze two days ago?" Jiang Xingchen asked in a low voice.
"Yeah!" Meier nodded.
"That's because, after taking the fake medicine, I had a strange dream! Many strange things appeared in the dream, and among them was this secret recipe..." This was what he had already thought of, although
It sounds full of loopholes, but no one can verify the authenticity of something like a dream, not to mention there is such a thing as fake medicine, and Meier is just a thirteen-year-old girl.
Sure enough, the little girl did not worry about the strange dream, and her attention was entirely attracted by the fake medicine.
"Could it be that my brother is not taking fake medicine, or that it takes a longer time to activate the Yuanquan..." Meier frowned, then seemed to confirm the answer, and nodded vigorously.
"It seems that that man is not a liar, and we won't ask the mercenary group to arrest him in the future... If it weren't for this medicine, my brother would not be what he is now!" The little girl thought to herself, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
A smile.
"Brother, don't hide anything from me in the future, okay?" Meier said to Jiang Xingchen seriously.
"Okay! I'll tell you everything from now on!" Jiang Xingchen agreed with a smile, rubbing the little girl's head lovingly.
"Moreover! You obviously know how to stew meat and how to remove the fishy smell. Why did you let me do it just now!" Mei'er asked again.
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at the little girl speechlessly: "Did I ask you to do it? I really want to do it. You are holding a machete and making gestures. Do I dare to come forward? Besides, let's talk about your chest.
It’s like breaking a big stone, saying that I have been cooking for three years, who would have thought that you are at this level..."
Seeing Jiang Xingchen's strange look, the little girl seemed to have reacted and her face turned red!
"Forget it for today, I'll cook it for you tomorrow. I'll make sure you can swallow it all!" Jiang Xingchen patted Mei'er on the shoulder and said, "I'll make some water and go to bed early! Let's go to the market tomorrow.
City, first go to the pharmacy to treat the injury on your hand, then buy new clothes, and then go to the aristocratic district to see if there is a house with an area of 1,000 square meters..."
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xingchen was stunned and looked at Mei'er strangely.
"I want to go home!" Mei'er whispered, and gently hugged Jiang Xingchen's arm: "Our small village is better than Hongyuan City. Although it is poor, everyone is very kind and there is no bully.
There are no gangsters, and there are no treacherous merchants... There is a hill behind the village, and there is a river over the mountain. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, you can see the misty mountains, so beautiful..."
Meier spoke in a low voice, as if she was reminiscing, with a calm smile on her face. Jiang Xingchen had already imagined a beautiful picture from her words.
After a moment, Meier stopped, raised her head and said, "Brother! If you become a noble again, don't you want to return to our territory... No matter how good Hongyuan City is, it is not our home!"
Jiang Xingchen looked thoughtful, frowning and said: "I have been deprived of my noble status, and my territory has been taken back! Even if I regain my noble status now, it is equivalent to starting over. I must at least have a title to be eligible for a territory, right?
...Moreover, even if we are granted a seal, it won’t be our original territory!”
Meier said: "Now that my brother has activated the Yuanquan and we have money to buy medicine, we don't have to worry about hurting our bodies while practicing martial arts. We will definitely be able to advance to the realm of inner energy! Sooner or later, we will reach the baron's standards! In addition, our The territory is just a remote small village, no one will like it, and we may not be able to get it back by then!"
Jiang Xingchen thought for a while and nodded: "Okay! Brother, I will try my best to take back our home... However, we still have to buy a thousand square meters of house in Hongyuan City. We can't keep renting a house!"
"Yes! Brother, I can definitely do it!" Meier smiled like a flower blooming, and then jumped away: "Brother, I will boil water for you!"
Jiang Xingchen hurriedly grabbed the little girl and scolded: "You have to boil water even if your hands are injured. I'll go do it myself! Don't wash it today!"
Dragging the little girl to the bedside and telling her to sleep well, Jiang Xingchen turned around and walked out of the house.
Mei'er watched Jiang Xingchen leave and suddenly burst into cheerful laughter. She turned around, picked up a quilt, and rolled into the bed...
Jiang Xingchen was not so happy when he left the room. Only now did he know that the little girl's biggest wish was to return to the small village territory. That was her home in her heart and a safe haven! However, she had to return to the territory. It's not that easy. He just activated the Yuanquan. He can't practice martial arts at all. No matter what state he is in, it has nothing to do with him. The reason why he agreed to Mei'er was just to comfort the little girl and not want her hopes to be dashed!
After boiling water and soaking in the hot water basin, Jiang Xingchen closed his eyes slightly and began to adjust his breathing. He still felt a little nauseous after eating the meat tonight.
"Breathe, breathe, breathe in..." As the breathing pattern unfolds, the heat in the stomach rushes to the head, and the fishy and greasy feeling gradually disappears. The sensitive array in the brain increases by an insignificant amount. However, This time it was different. Jiang Xingchen seemed to feel a strange change in his body. He couldn't tell what the specific change was, but he could feel it.
Although he still didn't know the function of the sensitive array, it was always good to have changes. Jiang Xingchen couldn't help but feel happy. He sat up straight and prepared to study it carefully.
He suddenly sat up, and the water in the basin suddenly stirred up. Jiang Xingchen immediately felt a warm foreign object hit his eyes, and he immediately tilted his head.
A small splash of water flew out from the side of his face and landed on the ground next to the wooden basin.
After Jiang Xingchen dodged the splash, he had already reacted and saw the splash from the corner of his eye.
"How did I escape?" Jiang Xingchen was stunned for a moment, frowning in thought.
For a moment, he suddenly raised his brows: "Could it be that the function of the sensitive array is to improve the body's perception and sensitivity... The sensitive array, the sensitive array, yes, that's what it means!"
Jiang Xingchen was overjoyed. Does the increased perception and sensitivity of his body mean that he can practice martial arts? In that case, it is really possible to take back his territory.
When this idea came up, it mushroomed like mushrooms after a rain. He couldn't help but try it again.
But after trying it, he gave up completely! Although he learned the lesson from the last time, he only exerted a little force. But the tearing pain was more intense than the Taichu Formation.
"It seems that martial arts training is really not for me! I will never try it again!" Jiang Xingchen looked at the vague sensitive array in his mind and secretly made up his mind. It doesn't matter if he can't practice martial arts.
If it is gone, there will be no place to cry. Although we still don’t know the specific function of the formation, we can see from the Taichu Formation that the role of the Sensitive Formation is certainly not small.
"Pa!" Jiang Xingchen slapped the water surface hard, and a splash of water splashed on his face. This time, he didn't feel the same as before.
"Hey! I'm short of hands..." With a sigh, Jiang Xingchen stood up and wiped his clothes.
After leaving the kitchen, Jiang Xingchen had just walked to the door of the bedroom, when someone suddenly banged on the door.
