The prince is very fierce

The horse galloped across the wilderness, the night wind rolled up the red yarn, dragging a red trail on the snow-covered ground.

Zhongli Chuchu sat on the saddle and galloped towards Jinhu County where the camels were stored. The long eyelashes set off the green cat-like eyes, showing a charming charm in the night. The proud figure of the Western Region woman looked bigger than the slender Nightingale. At this time, she put her hands around Nightingale's waist and her eyes stayed on the tall horse next to her. Xu Buling's white robe was tattered and had been torn off long ago, revealing his well-defined upper body in the wind and snow. There were many black and blue places on his body. He looked a little more wild and mighty like a man, but also a little embarrassed, which was very different from the beautiful young man who was as gentle as jade in the past.

Seeing this scene, Zhongli Chuchu couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She had originally wanted to let it go and no longer deliberately contact Xu Buling. There was nothing wrong with meeting each other in the world and forgetting each other in the world.

It was just that when they came to Hongshan Lake a few days ago, the master came up with a bad idea, wanting to see if Xu Buling would come to help her after hearing the news. Zhongli Chuchu wanted to refuse, but in the end, she didn't know why, and replied "It's up to you".

She knew the master's temper very well. If she didn't fight for three days, she would definitely do something wrong. She knew this, but she didn't firmly oppose it. She followed him stupidly and waited for several days behind Hongshan Water Village.

Xu Buling did come to save her, but he was injured. Just like he rushed to the Black City Palace without hesitation to make a scene in order to repay her a favor, she just had a little idea, but Xu Buling was risking his life.

Xu Buling didn't mean to blame her, but she blamed herself sincerely in her heart. If she couldn't beat Xue Chengzhi today, Xu Buling might have died here. She really shouldn't have agreed to this trick of testing people.

But no matter what, Xu Buling came in time when he heard that she was in danger, and Zhongli Chuchu was still very moved. Otherwise, she would not have run to persuade the master to help detoxify Xu Buling without hesitation after hearing that Xu Buling was poisoned. She was really afraid that such an excellent man would lose his life because of her, and she couldn't owe him this favor.

As for the master...

Zhongli Chuchu cared about the master who was both a teacher and a mother, and made such a decision without thinking. Maybe she thought that the master would detoxify Xu Buling, and he would live a happy life in the future. Xu Buling was really a good man...

But there was no other reason. Zhongli Chuchu was a little depressed at this time. She secretly looked at the master sitting behind Xu Buling, but did not dare to reveal the look in her eyes. In the end, she looked at the mountains on the other side, wondering what she was thinking...

Tap-tap-tap-

The wind-chasing horse trotted on the official road, the speed was quite fast but very stable, with only very slight bumps.

Zhongli Jiujiu sat with her legs between the saddles, close to Xu Buling's waist and back. Because of the riding posture, her aqua blue long skirt had to be pulled up to her waist, revealing two smooth legs like jade. The palace shoes with blue background and white flowers were put on her feet. There were two leather leg rings tied above her knees. A row of small porcelain bottles, silver needles and flying knives were inserted into the leg rings. Just by looking at the color, you can tell that they are poisoned.

Zhongli Jiujiu found the small porcelain bottle on her leg and identified it with the weak light. She was still chattering:

"Lock Dragon Gu... Well, it's not this... Seven-step Heartbreak Powder... It's not... Golden Wound Medicine..."

Xu Buling opened his arms to reveal the skin wound under his ribs, and his bare chest blocked the cold wind. Riding on the same horse with Zhongli Jiujiu, they were very close to each other. Behind the saddle was a hot harbor, and the touch was sharp. He could even feel the outline of the camel toe...

The last time Xu Buling drank with Zhongli Jiujiu on the boat, he found that Miss Jiujiu was naked under her collar, but he didn't expect that she was the same under her skirt as Chuchu. They were indeed close master and apprentice, but I don't know if she was wearing safety pants...

It's understandable that she is good at using poison and it's hard to hide bottles and jars in thick clothes, but it's hard for Xu Buling not to be distracted when his legs were dangling under his nose. After hearing the muttering behind him, his heart sank again. He turned his head and smiled:

"Miss Jiujiu, why don't I do it myself? It's pitch black. What if I use the wrong medicine..."

Zhongli Jiujiu has been dealing with drugs for many years and can distinguish various drugs with her nose. How could she confuse them? She just wanted to scare Xu Buling and avenge the teasing she had just received. Seeing Xu Buling turn around, she raised her hand and patted the back of Xu Buling's head, pushing his head back:

"Don't look around, are you afraid that I, your sister, will confuse you? Don't worry, even if I poison you half to death, I can still cure you safely. Poison is more expensive than medicine for wounds. Do you know how much silver the poison mist of the bottle of Dragon Locking Gu can sell for on the black market?"

Xu Buling did not deny this. The Dragon Locking Gu is too overbearing. No matter who or how many people you meet, you can only run away if you throw one on the ground. I dare not say how lethal it is, but the life-saving effect is absolutely first-class. If Zhongli Jiujiu dares to sell it, I am afraid that someone will be willing to pay tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Xu Buling looked straight ahead and thought for a while: "How many Dragon Locking Gu does Miss Jiujiu have?"

Zhongli Jiujiu searched for a long time before taking out a small bottle and said, "It should be this..." Xu Buling's scalp numbed when he heard it. She opened the bottle, smeared the powder on the white cloth, wiped the wounds on her ribs and back, and responded casually:

"The Dragon Locking Gu is a Gu, which means a bug, so there is only one of them. This is my capital in the underworld, so I can't give it to you. It takes three years to save up a small bottle of Gu poison, and there are only three bottles now. Chuchu and I have one bottle, and the one I gave you is a gift for entry. You have already used it. When you officially worship me as your master, I will give you another bottle..."

Xu Buling suddenly felt a little painful when he heard this. He thought that with the Gu worm, the Gu poison would be inexhaustible.

"Uh... It's not that I don't want to take Miss Jiujiu as my master, but I already have a master..." Zhongli Jiujiu's face suddenly turned ugly when she heard this, and she rubbed the bruise vigorously with medicine: "Did Ning Yuhe tell you not to take me as your master?" "Hiss" Xu Buling took a breath, a little annoyed, and slapped her leg with his backhand: "Why are you using so much force? I was injured to save you and your master, isn't this repaying kindness with enmity?" Zhongli Chuchu heard the slapping and the sound of cold breath, turned around, and saw that the master was threatening and tempting for the matter of taking in a disciple again, and whispered: "Master, don't embarrass Mr. Xu, he is injured." Zhongli Jiujiu's leg was slapped, and her face suddenly flushed. It was difficult to say anything when being watched by the apprentice, so she silently pulled her skirt down a little, and used the wound to The medicine was rubbed vigorously on Xu Buling's back:

"What do you mean I'm making things difficult for you? You promised last time and were ready to worship me as your master. If Ning Yuhe hadn't whispered behind your back... whispered in your ear, how could you suddenly regret it? There's no harm in worshipping me as your master..."

When Xu Buling heard this "whispering in your ear", he secretly felt that something was wrong. Thinking of the last time Zhongli Jiujiu was driven off the boat and didn't dare to come back, he thought about it, moved closer, and whispered:

"Miss Jiujiu, did my master say something to you?"

The last time Zhongli Jiujiu tried, she realized that Ning Yuhe might have some shameful thoughts about his apprentice in his heart. Under the influence of the truth wine, he might have said something out of line to Xu Buling. However, based on her understanding of Ning Yuhe, it is absolutely impossible for him to break the secular taboos and develop feelings for his apprentice, so she has been in a suspicious stage.

Seeing Xu Buling asking about this, Zhongli Jiujiu rolled her dark eyes, leaned closer and whispered:

"I tested your master last time, and your master said that he had a man he liked..."

"Oh?"

Xu Buling raised his eyebrows: "Really? Who is it?"

Zhongli Jiujiu saw Xu Buling's reaction and felt relieved. It seems that Ning Yuhe just had some crooked thoughts in secret. If the two of them had already had an affair, as Xu Buling's apprentice, he would either deny it in a hurry or ask nervously who the man was. It would be impossible to be so calm.

"Yes, she said that it seemed to be an old acquaintance, not as good-looking as you, and not as good at martial arts as you..."

"That's nonsense. There is no one in the world who is better-looking and has better martial arts than me..."

Xu Buling listened to Miss Jiujiu's nonsense and understood that she was testing the relationship between him and Ning Yuhe. If this kind of thing was told to others, the master would definitely not let him touch it, so he acted very naturally, as if blessing his master.

Zhongli Jiujiu secretly observed for a moment, and after finding that Xu Buling was not unusual, he could not help but secretly shook his head, thinking that Ning Yuhe was just like that, no different from an ordinary lovelorn, and only secretly had a one-sided love.

Since it was only Ning Yuhe who secretly had a one-sided love, he would definitely not say it out loud in this life, and at present, he was still fighting for the apprentice. Zhongli Jiujiu thought about it, wiped the wound more gently, and chuckled:

"Mr. Xu, I know your master's temper very well. She just stopped you because she hates me. If you really worship me as your master, she won't do anything to you. You know my ability. As long as I am in front of you, the king of heaven and the old man can't do anything to you..."

Xu Buling actually admired Zhongli Jiujiu very much, but he dared not disobey his wife's pillow talk, shook his head and sighed:

"Don't worry, Miss Jiujiu, I will persuade the master after I go back, and sooner or later Miss Jiujiu will have a place among the guests of the palace."

This is just a big deal.

Zhongli Jiujiu was not stupid. Seeing Xu Buling trying to avoid becoming his disciple and wanting to keep her by his side as a helper, she was naturally unhappy and snorted:

"I am very expensive. If you don't want me to be your disciple, and want me to serve your ladies, there is no way. The rules of the martial arts world are to calculate by day or by number of times. You can choose one."

This was a reward. Xu Buling had everything, not to mention money. He took the spoils sent by Xue Chengzhi from the side of the horse and handed it to Zhongli Jiujiu:

"This knife is priceless. Can you subscribe for a month?"

"Subscribe for a month..."

Zhongli Jiujiu frowned slightly, took the precious knife and looked at it twice, nodded slightly "Today is the 23rd. By the 23rd of next month, you have to give me another 30,000 taels of silver. You have to pay for the herbs and expenses during this period. I will only provide my skills..."

Zhongli Chuchu felt embarrassed when she saw her master asking for a sky-high price, and said:

"Master, 1,000 taels a day, where do you get such a high price? You are not the top ten martial arts champions..."

Zhongli Jiujiu really had nothing to say to this apprentice who was so stubborn, and glared slightly: "You girl, if he doesn't invite me, we can just go back to Nanyue, but you have to stick to him?"

Zhongli Chuchu was speechless for a moment, and had no choice but to look at Xu Buling with a little apology.

Xu Buling also felt that it was a bit expensive, and it was almost the price of the top courtesan in Chang'an City for a night, but Zhongli Jiujiu was worth this price just for the dragon-locking Gu she raised, so he didn't feel bad at the moment, and smiled:

"Okay, then Miss Jiujiu will be mine this month."

This sentence was obviously ambiguous. Zhongli Jiujiu blinked his eyes, thought about it, and corrected it:

"I am your doctor. I can only help you treat diseases, make poisons, and recuperate. Fighting or other messy things... will cost extra."

"No problem."

Xu Buling smiled heartily. In a good mood, he was about to ride his horse and whip it, but it involved the wound under his ribs and took a breath of cold air again...
