Chapter 1082: Sound Transmission

Buying vegetables was not difficult at first, but it was still difficult not to cause a sensation with his identity as he suddenly appeared in the noisy vegetable market. The vendors looked at him curiously and nervously, but after a while, Xiao Qianye's hands were full of things, including the lanterns and colorful paper needed for the New Year, and the ingredients for the dishes to be used for the evening. He held it in a hurry, opened the gap in his palm and threw it in with a sudden idea. He breathed comfortably and continued to walk while thinking about what else he needed. The crowd greeted him in groups of three or three, and was funny and did not dare to laugh out loud. The patrol soldiers also wanted to come over to help carry things enthusiastically when they saw him.

He had only been forced to come to the vegetable market a few times when he was very young. He followed him with a basket of vegetables at a young age, feeling that every minute was particularly boring. But now, he missed those pasts that were almost forgotten. This kind of market atmosphere facing the morning glow is gentle and warm, and makes people feel at ease.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Before he could buy all the things he had given to him, Chong Lan's voice suddenly appeared in the voice transmission stone in his arms. The other party seemed to be tapping another piece of jade curiously with his hands, making a rhythmic "dongdong" sound. He shouted at him in a long tone, skeptical: "Master Xiao?Master Xiao?Master Xiao, are you here?"

Xiao Qianye was startled by the sudden sound, and the people around him were also frightened and looked over. He quickly grabbed the jade into his palm and hurriedly walked around the street to a place with few people. Chonglan's voice continued. Perhaps he didn't get his response. He knocked it hard a few times. The friends around him also came over and said curiously: "Young master, can this broken stone really transmit sound? Why didn't he react at all!"

Chonglan put the jade in front of him and looked at it again and again. The red texture and spiral patterns inside were very small, and it was heavy and heavy in his hand. He tilted his head and stared at the hummingbird that had to find him through the storm on the sea, muttering to himself: "Can it be broken by the rain?"

"Young master, the mechanical hummingbird has not been broken. This is a stone. Can the stone be broken even when it is rained?" The partner shook his head without comment, took it from his hand and waved it hard a few times, "Young master, this is really a stone, not soaked in water."

"Take it back, don't throw it away." Chong Lan smiled and blamed her, slowly pulled the chair and sat down on the deck, and continued to shout without any rush, "Gei Master Xiao?Gei Master Xiao?Gei Master Xiao..."

"Stop howling." Finally, Xiao Qianye's voice came from the opposite side in disgust and cursed angrily, "I'm... a little busy now."

"It can really transmit the voice." Chonglan suddenly felt energetic. There was a hummingbird message on the table beside him. Naturally, he had known the purpose of Xiao Qianye looking for him this time, but he was not in a hurry at all. Instead, he asked with interest, "Master Xiao, where did you get this stone? It's much more convenient than the bells used by the sand bandits before! Is there any? Give me two pairs?"

"Don't worry about the stones for now." Xiao Qianye casually found a corner without a man and sat down, and said bluntly, "Who is the old man who gives you conch? Do you still have an impression of it?"

Chonglan pursed his lips with an unfulfilled look, tilted his head and glanced at several companions around him, and asked, "Do you still have an impression?"

"Young Master, that's been a few years ago." Several people answered in a glance. Chonglan grabbed his head and replied, "I don't remember that old man was drunk and couldn't afford to pay. He was thrown into the sea. I happened to catch him up. You also know that we are a group of robbers. Who would have nothing to do to remember that penniless pauper?"

"Tsk..." Xiao Qianye was so upset that he didn't want such an important clue to be interrupted, so he could only continue to ask, "Where is the appearance? Are there any characteristics?"

Chonglan looked at his companion next to him and repeated his question: "Do you still remember what that old man looks like?"

The Xinmo tribe is embarrassed and look at me, I look at you. After a while, someone jumped out to remind him: "Young master, that old man has red hair. He was thrown into the sea in the middle of winter. When we caught him, his face was frozen ashen. You also joked that he was like the red hair ghost depicted in the book!"

Chonglan recalled that he could not remember at all anyway, so he simply conveyed his partner's words intact. Xiao Qianye pressed his hands on his forehead. Although he had a premonition that Chonglan might know nothing, it was inevitable that he would be bored if the clues were really broken. Neither of them was silent for a while, but Chonglan couldn't help but comfort him: "Don't worry about the conch. Anyway, there is a Ten-Party Conference in Luozhou Bay in March, and there are all kinds of strange people there. You will definitely find a way to deal with the giant ash. Speaking of which, have you met Xin Shiniang?"

"Do you know?" Xiao Qianye asked while pinching the jade. Chonglan shook his head and replied, "It's not a question of knowing it, but I've heard of such a famous figure in the mountains and seas. She gave you the silver coins to Luozhou Bay? Haha, this has saved me a lot of money. That thing can be traded to sky-high prices in the black market!"

Xiao Qianye couldn't help but worry: "As soon as Wen Shun died, the invitation letter was sent from Tianjie to Shanhaiji. The time for the Ten-Plan meeting was set at the tenth day of March. It's less than half a year in the middle. They are so anxious to fill Wen Shun's vacancy?"

"Hey, hey, you really don't feel hurt when you stand and speak." Chonglan teased with a smile, throwing the stone from his left hand to his right hand, and said enthusiastically, "There are white silver waving every day in this position. If you weren't it because of the distance between the giant awnings, do you believe that when Wen Shun died, someone would want to make up for it. Not to mention half a year, you can't wait for a long time."

"How many of those people do you know on the invitation letter?" Xiao Qianye obviously didn't want to talk nonsense to him. Chonglan flipped through the names written on the letter and replied with his chin, "I know them all, but I'm not familiar with them. I'm a guest of honor at Shanhaiji. They are afraid that I will die of fear, so they treat me respectfully wherever I go, fearing that something will make me unhappy and it will be a big trouble. These people are rich and wealthy. If they fight in Luozhou Bay, there will be a good show."

Xiao Qianye pursed his lips and reminded: "I didn't ask you to go to the show. How are you familiar with that giant turtle?"

"The Giant Ao is quite obedient." Chonglan walked to the side of the boat and looked into the place where the Giant Ao was napping, complaining, "But all the merchants above have moved away. There are now a bunch of empty houses left, and I didn't even leave a bag of rice for me. Master Xiao, there are only dozens of companions around me. It looks so deserted. You won't ask me to take one person to the empty Giant Ao to Luozhou Bay, you will be ridiculed."

"There are still people who dare to laugh at you?" Xiao Qianye snorted coldly without comment. "Give them ten more courage, no one dares to laugh at you."

"I'm not such a cruel person, right?" Chonglan smiled sly, his eyes flashing with anticipation. "When are you going to come? The silver coins given by Xin Shiniang need to be handed over to the guides in Tianjie to open a special passage. I have already inquired before. The closest place to Feiyuan is Qingshui Port in Penglai. It will take us a month to take the giant awns there. You have to come and get familiar with them as soon as possible, so as not to have any trouble."

Xiao Qianye frowned and calculated the time, and replied: "I understand. When the New Year's banquet is over, I will go to Biluohai to find you."

He put away the voice transmission Shi Xin absent-mindedly bought some things and hurried back home. As soon as he entered the door, Yun Xiao actually practiced a sword in the backyard. When he saw him coming back, he happily greeted him, looked left and right, and asked strangely: "Brother said you went out to buy vegetables and New Year's goods. Where are the things? Why did you come back empty-handed?"

"Why are you getting up? You're wearing so little again, what should you do if you catch a cold again?" He grabbed Yun Xiao's wrist and complained, and immediately prepared to pull her back to the room to rest. At this time, Tian Che's voice came faintly. He glanced at him with disgust and pointed to the room and said, "The doors and windows are closed tightly and are not ventilated or breathable. Do you still want her to be cured? It's just a cold wind and cold, and it's still coughing for a few days. If your body is so weak, don't always lie down. Just take advantage of the weather and the sun comes out to move."

Yun Xiao trotted back to Tian Che with a grimace, but she still shook her eyebrows and complained, "Senior brother, he always forces me to lie down, and he will not let me move for several days. I am so annoyed."

"You were injured before, of course you have to lie down when you are injured. Wouldn't it be troublesome to pull the wound? The injury is an injury, the disease is a disease, do you understand the right medicine?" Tian Che did not speak for her this time, and his attitude became so tough that he cursed with a dark face. Yun Xiao immediately turned his head and threw him down and ran back to Xiao Qianye, muttering in a low voice, "This time it was obviously the problem with that conch. I have never been sick and I am in good health!"

Xiao Qianye replied expressionlessly: "The doctors say that you are very weak, so let's take care of it."

"Which quack doctor said that?" Yun Xiao retorted unwillingly and clenched his fists very vigorously. Xiao Qianye was amused by her movements and raised the corners of his lips gently. "Prince Qiao of Danzhen Palace said that the medicine you have been drinking these days was specially prepared by someone. I know you are afraid of hardship, so I made a special change to your prescription. You are fine. If you don't appreciate it, you will still accused others of being a quack doctor?"

Yun Xiao grabbed his head awkwardly, and suddenly lost confidence. He could only defend himself: "The miracle doctor... The miracle doctor also has a misunderstanding. If you don't talk about this, what did you have been out for so long? What did the big brother ask you to buy?"

Xiao Qianye opened his palms, and after the gap technique was opened, many things fell out of it. Yun Xiao squatted down to sort it out in surprise, and couldn't help laughing: "This is a spell from heaven, the most powerful space technique in the world. You actually used it as a warehouse to buy vegetables?"

"I used to use it as a warehouse to put it on weapons, but now it's quite convenient to buy vegetables." Xiao Qianye replied casually, and Yun Xiao turned to Tianche happily, "Senior brother, you can come here rarely. I'll call Zhuo Fan to have dinner together in the evening."

"Yeah." Tian Che smiled slightly, helped her clean up the things on the ground, and said, "Okay, I'll go back tomorrow."

"Go back?" Yun Xiao's face darkened, and he grabbed his wrist and kept saying, "Are you going back so soon?"

Tian Che still smiled gently, and then pressed her wrist to remind him seriously: "The medicine from Danzhen Palace has been prepared. This time, when I came to Qingjiang County, I asked Ling Bo to keep an eye on it. That guy is careless. I am worried after a long time."

"Is the plague in Qingjiang County still very serious?" Xiao Qianye blurted out. Tian Che sighed and nodded. "Qingjiang County is a small coastal place. Originally, local officials didn't care much about the lives of the people. Moreover, I always feel that this plague is not a natural disaster and is more like a man-made disaster. I have heard some things about the locals before. A few months ago, a group of soldiers were stationed nearby. I don't know what they were doing. Later, the soldiers withdrew and the plague began to break out. The Central Plains appeared to be prosperous and the people were safe in recent years, but in fact, the party struggles were extremely serious. I was worried that they had made something strange when they fought for power and had to go back as soon as possible to check it."

"Senior Brother..." Yun Xiao wanted to say something, Tian Che had already gently blocked her mouth and smiled, "Don't worry, go and cook quickly. After so many years, it's time for me to taste your skills have improved."

When Yun Xiao left, Xiao Qianye looked at him with concern. Before he could say anything, Tian Che waved his hand and comforted him: "A little wind and cold is so serious. How could she risk her to go to the plague outbreak? Don't worry, we are not the kind of tense relationship we used to be. I will say if it really needs it."

Xiao Qianye nodded, it was hard to say anything else.
