C12 Nine Flowers of Immortality

After many years of careful management, the Traveller Village in the wilderness had started to take on a larger scale.

Besides the high taxes, there were no other inconvenient areas to live in. Coupled with the increasing number of traveling merchants, many people were now the first to earn a living. There was no longer any trace of the depressed atmosphere in the square.

On this day, Traveller Village, which had been spontaneously given the name of Zhen'an by the villagers, became abnormally noisy. Upon closer inspection, one would discover that this was because someone was preparing to marry, and large red words of happiness covered the doorjamb. Even the temporary kitchen set up in the plaza was a picture of elation and elation.

"Jun'er!" A youth ran into the square and shouted as he looked at the busy figures standing in front of a row of stoves.

"What?" He stopped what he was doing and waited for the shadow to turn around. He saw a handsome face with fair skin and delicate facial features. However, there was a frown on his face. It seemed that he was very unhappy that his work had been interrupted.

"Why are you still here? Didn't we agree on it …! " The young man who came to call for help also frowned. As he spoke, he made a running motion, causing Jun'er to return to her senses. She glared at him before placing the things in her hands on the table.

"Damn it, I forgot about it!" Jun'er wiped her hands with her apron. Then, she took it off and threw it to the side. When she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly thought of something and shouted towards the aunt opposite her.

"Auntie Li, look after the fire for me!" In half an hour, remember to add all of the ingredients. If you continue to stew for another hour, you will be able to leave the wok.

"Got it!" Auntie Li, who was similarly busy, did not even turn her head as she replied. After all, she was already so busy preparing food for the entire village that she wished she could change into seventy-two.

"Let's go, quickly!" Jun'er ran to the youth's side, and by the time she spoke, she had already run out.

"Why did you guys only just arrive?" "If we wait any longer, it will be too late!" The other teenager who was waiting at the intersection was the same age as Jun'er, and he kept waving his hands.

"I was so busy, I almost forgot!" Where was he? Where is it? " Jun'er hurriedly asked.

"He's over at the mountain forest. He was afraid of being seen by others, so he arranged to meet with them at the old temple." The waiting teenager pointed.

"Alright!" Then hurry up and go! I still need to see the medicine when I go back! Otherwise, we won't make it in time for the banquet tonight! " Jun'er ran in the direction of the old temple.

"Slow down!" Seeing Jun'er running away like a wisp of smoke, the youth accompanying her couldn't help but shout out.

"You were usually lazy, but now you know your wrongs!" The young man who was originally waiting for them quickly followed, but when he passed by the figure, he couldn't help but mock them.

"Ye Xun, don't be complacent!" Ye Xun and Jun'er, who were staring at the distance, gritted their teeth and shouted.

"There's no other way, I have the ability to be proud! Envy it! "Haha!" Ye Xun laughed loudly in front as he dodged a rock thrown by the young man behind him.

"Enough!" Stop arguing! Dong Dou, if you can't keep up with us, then go ahead! " Jun'er turned around and shouted. Then, she quickly disappeared from Dong Dou's sight with Ye Xun.

Dong Dou, who was a little dumbfounded, could not help but stomp his feet. If he had known earlier, he would have been more diligent when cultivating. Now, not to mention Jun'er, even that damnable Ye Xun had been angered by him.

Although he was infuriated, it was a fact that his skills were inferior to others. Therefore, Dong Dou had no choice but to give it his all to catch up. When he finally arrived at the ancient temple, he saw, in addition to Jun'er and Ye Xun, a somewhat sneaky figure.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the three of them standing there without saying a word, Dong Dou couldn't help but approach and ask. At the same time, he glanced at the brocade in Jun'er's hand.

"Good boy!" Isn't this way too beautiful? " Dong Dou's eyes could not help but light up as he said this. He reached out his hand to touch it, but was slapped down by Ye Xun. At the same time, he gave him a look to let him understand the situation.

"This young master has good eyes, he knows what's good for him!" The skinny man beside her grinned and looked at Jun'er with a flattering expression.

"Are you sure this is the Nine Immortals Brocade?" Jun'er frowned slightly as she glanced at the brocade in her hand. After which, she lifted her head and looked at the somewhat sneaky man in front of her.

"Of course I'm sure. How could this be false?" The man's affirmation made Jun'er frown and throw the brocade back.

"This is?" The man was flustered when he received the call. He finally managed to hold the brocade with a surprised expression as he looked at Jun'er.

"Boss, I didn't pay that much to be fooled by you. You took a silk brocade and used the method of garrotte to make it, and you dare to say that it's a Nine Immortals Brocade?" Jun'er snorted. It was hard to tell if she was more angry or regretful.

"What?" "Fake?!" Wu Tie widened his eyes and walked up to look at the other party's cloth. He then smacked his lips as he looked back at Ye Xun and roared.

"Didn't you say that there would be no problem?" How did he find a fake one? Dong Dou glared at Ye Xun.

"The pattern he gave is Nine Immortals Brocade, right? Jun'er had also seen it before." Ye Xun also said with a frown as he glared at the man in front of him.

"Looks like it's the Remnant!" Jun'er sighed as she spoke, making Ye Xun and Dong Dou look at each other.

If the Remnant was helpless, they would have looked forward to using the Nine Immortals Brocade as a gift. After all, it was very difficult to find a real Nine Immortals Brocade now, even if they had money, they might not even be able to find it, it was all because of the huge fire back then. All the Nine Immortals Brocade that they used for their own use had been thrown into the sea of flames, and the brocades that made the Nine Immortals Brocade had all disappeared or died in the flames of war, let alone the inheritance of craftsmanship.

It was also because of this that Nine Immortals Brocade was so precious, not only because of its rarity, but also because of its craftsmanship, and the perfection of its finished product. You must know, Nine Immortals Brocade from more than ten years ago, could only be used for brocade!

"You, what nonsense are you all spouting? This is obviously a Nine Immortals Brocade! " The man who had just regained his senses retorted incoherently. He seemed to be angry from embarrassment.

"This is not a Nine Immortals Brocade at all." Jun'er, who had failed in her hopes, could not help but reply with a low voice.

"What do you know? But you're just a refugee, don't spout nonsense. Selling it to you is a compliment, otherwise you would never have the chance to see such a treasure! " The man glared fiercely at Jun'er and yelled.

"Hey!" Hearing this, Dong Dou glared and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Jun'er.

"Everyone knows very well whether it's a Nine Immortals Brocade or not. Otherwise, why would you be so careful to do business with us?" Wasn't it because he was afraid of others finding out that he was selling fake goods? Jun'er harrumphed in her heart.

"That's because you guys are not allowed to show off. If people knew that I, Yan Guizhuang, was involved in a business deal with refugees, wouldn't I ruin my own reputation?" The man snorted in annoyance.

"I think you're afraid of others finding out that you're selling fake goods, right?" Dong Dou also replied rudely.

"What proof do you have that I am selling fake goods? Don't spout nonsense! Since I have brought the items here, I will hand them over to you for free! " the man said, pushing the brocade forward.

"Boss, we agreed on a Nine Immortals Brocade!" Ye Xun's face turned cold as he said that.

"This is the Nine Immortals Brocade!" the man shouted.

"Are you deaf?" I already said that this is fake, where did you get the confidence to say that it's real? " Dong Dou rolled his eyes and said.

"It, it was real to begin with!" Being frightened by Dong Dou and Ye Xun, the man braced himself and replied.

"Alright, let's go back!" With a grim expression, Jun'er said in a low voice and was about to take her people and leave.

"Stop!" Where's the money? Where's the money! Leave the money! " The man shouted. Just when Dong Dou was so angry that he wanted to curse, something suddenly came from the woods. Soon, he saw more than a dozen figures surrounding the old temple.

The man in the lead was big and tall. When he walked in front of the man with the broadsword in his hand, he almost fell down from fright.

"Useless thing." The man holding the brocade in his hand tossed it backwards and turned to look at Jun'er and her entourage.

"And here I thought it was the God of Fortune who wanted the Nine Immortals Brocade. I didn't expect it to be three brats with a dry, stinky smell." The man snorted, then glared at the man behind him.

"I, I don't know, but, but they have money." The man stuttered before swallowing his saliva and calming down under the leader's stare.

"If you have the money, then so be it." The man looked at Jun'er and her entourage with raised eyebrows.

Damn it! Dong Dou cursed as he stood in front of Jun'er. Ye Xun stood behind Jun'er with a cold expression on his face. He looked a little upset.

"Ye Xun, you really are a broom!" Dong Dou looked at the dozen or so people that surrounded them and unhappily cursed.

"I know!" He didn't expect Ye Xun to respond like this. It was rare for Dong Dou to look back at him without rebutting Ye Xun. Then, he smacked his lips and didn't say anything else.

"Brat, we are only here for money. If you know what's good for you, then hand over the money. We can spare your lives." As he spoke, the man waved the broadsword in his hand.

"If you find the Nine Immortals Brocade, the money will naturally be given to you." Jun'er looked at the man without batting an eyelid.

"Kid, if we really find him, do you think that soft persimmon will end up like today?" The man pointed at the man with the brocade behind him with a mocking smile.

"Since there are no Nine Immortals Brocade here, there's no need for me to pay." Jun'er said in a low voice and then winked at Ye Xun and Dong Dou.

"Kid, am I the one who didn't say it clearly, or is your brain a little muddled? I told you to hand over the money, didn't you understand? " The man looked at Jun'er with a sneer. His expression revealed the truth, and that this matter had nothing to do with the Nine Immortals Brocade from the beginning. The important part was that there was only money.

"Such thick skin!" Dong Dou muttered. Before the man could make a move, he threw out a round ball at the same time that it hit the ground.

"Damn it!" Where was he? Hurry and catch them! " When he could finally see the object clearly, the man noticed that Jun'er and the other two had already disappeared, so he gave the order loudly.

By the time everyone rushed into the forest, Jun'er and the other two had already found a shortcut and ran towards the village, leaving their pursuers far behind. As for the three people running along the way, they naturally complained about it.

"They're all people you've asked for. What are they doing?" Dong Dou glared at Ye Xun in annoyance.

"Who would have thought that the famed Swallow Manor, which was once the world's largest, would be reduced to such a state?" Ye Xun was also sulking.

"Alright, it's not all Ye Xun's fault. Looking at his appearance, I'm afraid it's not the first time. We have to be more careful in the future." Jun'er was not thinking about what had happened, but about why it had happened.

"The great Yan Guizhuang actually started being a bandit, it's true." Dong Dou snorted in disdain.

"Jun'er, what are you going to do without the Nine Immortals Brocade?" Ye Xun asked Jun'er as he seemed to have thought of something.

"…" That's right! What should he do? Jun'er frowned slightly as she sighed in her heart.
