Quick Wear: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 161 The World is Full of Bandits

Xianxian nodded, "It is the treasure-hunting mouse, Dream Chaser. Do you know if the inner elixir of the red snake with hundreds of years of practice can be useful to the treasure-hunting mouse that has already awakened its spiritual wisdom?"

Looking at the treasure-hunting mouse in front of him, Wu Zhuimeng quickly sized it up and then asked in surprise.

"Ma'am, where did this treasure-hunting rat of yours come from?"

“I found it by accident.”

"You're so lucky."

Wu Zhuimeng quickly explained, "There are very few treasure-hunting rats in our demon tribe. Because of their innate treasure-hunting ability, they are coveted by other demons."

"You are so lucky to have found a treasure hunting mouse."

Xianxian touched Shi Nan's ear with her fingers.

"Is the red snake's magic bead useful?"

"Of course it is useful. It can allow the treasure-hunting rat to absorb the red snake's power."

When the red snake turned into ashes, Xianxian noticed the red beads and picked them up and put them in her purse when she left the cave.

Xianxian did have the idea of ​​feeding the magic pearl to Shi Nan, but she didn't plan to give it to him here. Who knows what will happen?

Just in case, I'd better go back and make plans.

And Su An Ning was waiting for her in the town to go back together on the donkey cart.

Xianxian directly instructed Wu Zhuimeng to use the sedan chair that had just picked her up to take her back to town.

Meet Su Anning at the market as agreed.

"Wan Niang, where have you been? You made me so anxious."

Because it was past the time they had agreed on, Su Anning thought something had happened to her little sister.

She pulled Xianxian up and looked her up and down, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was not injured at all.

"Before Xiao Ling left, he entrusted you to me and asked me to take good care of you. If I really lost you, Xiao Ling would definitely be angry when he came back."

angry?

Not necessarily. Xiao Ling and Zhuo Taoer are now so passionate about each other that he has never thought that his original body is still waiting for him in Paradise.

Xianxian held Su Anning's hand and comforted her, "I'm fine. I have to go to the market every few days to sell herbs. It's still relatively safe in town. I will be extra careful."

But Su Anning was still a little uneasy.

She patted her chest and said, "It's really not peaceful recently. Liang and Zhou are fighting again. I don't know what the soldiers were looking for just now."

"I was just shopping and happened to hear people talking about the young master of the Li family in town bullying men and women and even robbing women. You'd better be careful."

"It's better to stay at home peacefully these days."

"Squeak."

Shi Nan couldn't help but agree.

Su Anning moved her ears in shock, and her small hands pulled hard at the slender cuffs of her sleeves.

"I heard a mouse, Wanniang, and I'm scared."

Su Anning has been afraid of mice since she was a child. Her legs would go weak whenever she saw a mouse.

Therefore, when they came on the donkey cart, Xianxian covered Shi Nan with her hair so that Su An Ning would not be startled when she saw him.

Xianxian patted his chest with her hand, and Shi Nan felt like he was hit. He was directly pressed into a soft place.

Ah!

I was teased.

"It's okay, maybe you heard it wrong, I don't see any rats nearby."

Xianxian held her shoulders and comforted her for a while, and Su Anning finally came to her senses.

But she still couldn't help looking around, fearing that a terrible rat would jump out from somewhere.

Just as the two were waiting for the next donkey cart, soldiers came to check.

The other party first asked about Xianxian's identity, and when he saw that there was no problem, he turned around to check others.

Su Anning couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you investigating?"

"Bandits."

An old man who was also waiting for a donkey cart said, "The bandits have been rampant recently, robbing food and money without fear of death. The court is planning to send people to suppress the bandits, but we don't know if we can defeat them."

"In fact, there are bandits everywhere in the world now. If we have time to eliminate the bandits in the mountains, we might as well get rid of the Li family in the town first."

The old man shook his head as he spoke, and it was obvious that he hated the Li family he was talking about very much.

Xianxian asked curiously, "Old man, did this Li do anything bad?"

"That's a lot."

"Some time ago, the Li family forced a girl from the neighborhood to be sold, and a few days later, the girl's body was carried out."

"The son of Master Li is even worse. Yesterday, he fell in love with the beautiful wife of a man selling steamed cakes. He beat the man to death in the street and kidnapped his wife. He is simply a beast."

"He brought his thugs to roam the streets like a tyrant. He kicked over our stalls and beat and scolded us innocent people who were selling things. He is the real bandit."

Su An Ning held her handkerchief in her hand, her face showing surprise, "He is so unscrupulous, isn't there anyone who went to the government to sue him?"

"Sue? It's no use!"

The old man sneered and said, "The Li family is a famous wealthy business family. As long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem at all."

Just then the donkey cart arrived, and Xianxian and Su Anning got on the cart together and left the town.

Su Anning was obviously relieved.

"There are bandits outside and the Li family inside, Wan Niang, you have to be careful recently."

"I see."

After returning home, Xianxian pulled Shi Nan out, and then placed the red snake's magic bead in front of him.

"Would you like to try it?"

Looking at the red beads in front of him, Shi Nan couldn't help but swallowing his saliva.

He was already injured, and the time he was forced to transform into a human form and kill the red snake on the mountain that day made his injuries even worse.

In fact, the best way to heal is to leave here quickly and return to where he should go to heal.

But looking at Xianxian in front of him, Shi Nan somehow decided to stay.

"Squeak."

He raised his front paws to hold the demon pearl, opened his mouth wide and swallowed it with great effort in front of Xianxian.

This demon bead brought with it a burning sensation, forcing Shi Nan to lie down and absorb it quietly.

Xianxian was tidying up books nearby, among which was a drawing of Xiao Ling drawn by the original body himself.

Because she missed Xiao Ling too much, the original body would draw Xiao Ling every day.

However, since Xianxian came, she has never drawn Xiao Ling again.

It’s too unlucky, so it’s better not to draw it.

The herbs collected a few days ago were all sold out, so Xianxian picked up the basket and planned to collect some more.

The original body made a living by selling herbs on weekdays, and Xianxian chose to continue following the original body's actions.

Before going out, Xianxian looked at Shi Nan inside the house, only to see him lying on the table with his eyes closed, his chest rising and falling, indicating that he was still alive.

This trip up the mountain was extremely smooth. Not only did Xianxian collect the common herbs she needed, but she also found some precious herbs.

This mountain has no name, but it is full of spiritual energy and naturally contains rare treasures.

She guessed that the seed was related to the mountain. Ever since she swallowed the seed, her consciousness had been connected to the mountain.

As long as a stranger enters the mountains, she can immediately detect it.

Just then a herb caught her attention because it was very beautiful.

The appearance of the herb is like wheat ears, except that this herb is white.

Xianxian took it off and put it directly into her mouth.

I thought it would be the bitter taste of the herbs, but it turned out to be a light sweetness.

Xianxian immediately had the answer in her mind and guessed what the herb in her hand was.

There was an epidemic in the plot, and ordinary people who were infected with the disease would develop pustules all over their bodies.

This epidemic can spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, causing unspeakable suffering to the people.
