解开女市长的奶罩

When Zhou Shengwu heard that, he did not even open his eyes. He replied, “I’ve already told that brat that I won’t meet anyone. Since you insisted on coming, 1’11 definitely not interfere in your matters.”

His words were blunt and straightforward. It was exactly the same as what Dashing Wind Chaser had told Han Xing. Dashing Wind Chaser had told him that Zhou Shengwu had a strange personality. For so many years, even his family members who wanted to look for him had to listen to him, let alone outsiders.

“Old Master Zhou, I know that my visit is very presumptuous, but it’s a matter of life and death. Please help me.”

Han Xing took a deep breath and used a more respectful attitude to plead with Zhou Shengwu, hoping that this would move Zhou Shengwu. He did not expect Zhou Shengwu to not even look at them.

“Junior, it’s as if you don’t understand a word. I’ve already said that 1 won’t help you. Hurry up and leave. Don’t continue to disturb my rest here!”

Shangguan Xuelan couldn’t stand his arrogant attitude any longer. She saw that Han Xing wanted to continue persuading him, so she grabbed his arm.

“There’s no need to say anything else. Even if you say it out loud, this old fellow won’t help!”

Originally, Zhou Shengwu’s arrogant words had already made Shangguan Xuelan unhappy. Now that she saw his attitude, she directly mocked, “Old man, do you know what it means to save a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda for the god? Han Xing, let’s go. Why do we have to stand here and annoy him?”

“As the saying goes, all things are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. There must be an antidote within a few steps from the place the poisonous snake appears. Since we are currently where witchcraft worm exists, surely we must be able to find the antidote here?”

Shangguan Xuelan dragged Han Xing out of the courtyard. After the two of them left the courtyard, Han Xing asked curiously, “If Old Master Zhou really wants to make things difficult for me, it’s fine. But why are you doing this?”

Shangguan Xuelan explained with a smile, “I didn’t expect that the person you brought me here to meet was actually Zhou Shengwu. This old man has a very strange temper. I’ve often heard the elders in my family mention him.”

“When he was young, he ignored the Zhou family’s objection and insisted on running to the southwest to study folk medicine. 1 heard that the Zhou family’s ancestors beat him countless times but he still refused to listen to them. It is useless to go along with such a person. It was better to use other methods to provoke him and give it a try.”

When Han Xing heard what she said, he also felt that it made sense. Anyway, he had already found Old Master Zhou’s residence. At most, he could just go and beg him. This was not too embarrassing for Han Xing. It was a matter of life and death. It’s not like he would lose out much just because he got reprimanded.

“We’ll have to take the tractor out later to find a place to stay.”

They didn’t know anyone in Stone Village, so they didn’t dare to stay overnight.

Shangguan Xuelan nodded. However, she changed her tone and stared at Han Xing with her black eyes. She said, “Actually, I’d like to take a look and see if there are any special herbs on the mountain of Stone Village.”

There were mountains everywhere in the southwest region. Other than a fixed entrance to Stone Village, the rest of the village was covered in green mountains. Most of these mountains had not been developed by humans. There were many kinds of rare and strange beasts on the mountains, not to mention that they were all covered by towering ancient trees.

“It’s still a little dangerous for the two of us to go in. If we really encounter any ferocious beasts, it won’t be easy to escape. I’m worried that there might be some poisonous herbs inside. If something happens to you, I won’t be able to save you.”

Shangguan Xuelan had naturally taken into account Han Xing’s words. She patted the messenger bag on her back, and there was a clattering sound coming from inside. She said proudly, “I thought about it before coming here, so 1 specially brought a few bottles of antidote pills from home. It will definitely guarantee that we will be safe.”

She had long yearned for these magical folk customs in the southwest, but she had never found the opportunity to explore them. Now that she could come here, she definitely could not waste the chance to do so.

Han Xing was strong. If something really happened, he would definitely not abandon her and run away alone. Shangguan Xuelan was confident about this.

The two of them discussed for a long time, but Han Xing was still worried. He spent loo yuan to ask a villager for some realgar to carry with them. The environment here was rainy all year round, and the air was humid. There were all kinds of snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Shangguan Xuelan insisted on going to the mountain to look at the herbs. Even if she had the antidote pill, she still had to pay attention to ordinary snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

After the two of them went up the mountain, Han Xing took out realgar and sprinkled it all over Shangguan Xuelan’s body. He said, “If you encounter any problems later, you must tell me immediately.”

“Don’t worry, don’t worry!” Shangguan Xuelan said a few perfunctory words and ran into the forest impatiently. Han Xing could only speed up his pace helplessly. This little girl ran faster than anyone when it came to medicine.

At this moment…

Shangguan Xuelan, who was walking in front, felt a chill on her neck. The smooth touch made her scalp go numb. Her face turned pale and she didn’t dare to move. Her voice trembled as she said, “Han-Han Xing! Han Xing! Come and save me!”

“Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!”

When Han Xing got a closer look, he saw a finger-sized snake coiling around Shangguan Xuelan’s neck. He pulled the snake down and threw it on the ground.

The moment the little flower snake fell to the ground, it slipped into the grass and disappeared. Shangguan Xuelan’s eyes were filled with tears. She was obviously frightened.

“Alright, alright, don’t be afraid. I told you to scatter the realgar properly just now and you ran away faster than anyone else.” Han Xing was both angry and amused at the same time. Shangguan Xuelan couldn’t care less and immediately picked up the realgar and rubbed it on her neck.

She wiped her tears as she said, “I’m most afraid of snakes and insects. My life is so pitiful!”

When Han Xing heard her words, he was about to console her when he saw Shangguan Xuelan crying and jumping on the ground a few times.

“Grandpa Earth God bless me, don’t let these little snakes bite me. If they want to bite, bite Han Xing. Don’t bite me!”

Seeing her acting like a child, praying for the blessings of the gods, Han Xing’s gloominess was swept away. Instead, he found Shangguan Xuelan quite cute.

“Alright, stop crying. Let’s go. You may hide behind me. If anything happens, I will protect you.”

Shangguan Xuelan replied with an “Mm”. She no longer cared about being reserved. She stuck herself tightly to Han Xing’s back and looked left and right from time to time, afraid that something would fall on her again.

The two of them walked for more than a mile on the mountain road.

Shangguan Xuelan saw a field of herbs. Instantly, her voice trembled with excitement.. She exclaimed, “Am I seeing things? These are all mystic meridian herbs!”
