Sima Youyue did not feel embarrassed and said, "Since the array has been fixed, we will go back first. I haven't been back for so long. My grandfather and the others must be worried. "
Actually, she had already used the son-mother stone to tell Wei Zi Qi and the others that she would be staying here for a period of time. They were not worried about her at all.
"If that's the case, I'll send you off." Zhou Haimo said.
"No need, just find someone to lead the way for us." Sima Youyue said, "Now that the teleportation portal is ready, I'm sure you guys have something to discuss. We won't trouble the Hall Master."
"How can that be? Nothing is more important than sending the Grandmaster away," Zhou Haimo said.
He insisted on sending them off. Sima Youyue did not reject his offer and left the Heavenly Tiger Hall.
Returning to the inn, Sima Lie and the others saw that the four of them had returned safely, and only then did they truly let out a sigh of relief.
"Grandfather, let's get ready and leave tomorrow." Sima Youyue said, "Why isn't Shopkeeper Chou here today?"
"He hasn't been in the inn for the past few days." Sima Lie said. "Z En? Are you looking for him for something?"
"Nothing much, I just wanted to ask him something." Sima Youyue said.
The waiter just happened to come out from the back hall and heard her words. He said, "Dear guest, my shopkeeper said that if you have any business with him, you should wait for him for two days."
"He knows that I'm looking for him?" Sima Youyue asked in surprise.
"Hehe, there's nothing that my shopkeeper doesn't know about in Hong City." The waiter said narcissistically.
Sima Youyue nodded and went upstairs to her room.
Sima Youyue was even more curious about Innkeeper Chou since he knew that she was looking for him.
Sima Youyue and the rest waited for Innkeeper Chou for another half a month. Fortunately, everyone was able to cultivate, and these ten or so days were also the days for everyone to go into seclusion.
One day, the waiter knocked on Sima Youyue's door and told her that Shopkeeper Chou had returned and invited Sima Youyue to meet him in the back hall.
Although it was said to be the back hall, it was actually quite far away. Previously, she hadn't noticed that the back of the inn was the back hall.
The waiter brought her into a room and let her go in alone.
The room was very dark. After closing the door, it was almost impossible to see what was going on inside.
"You're injured." Sima Youyue said.
"You have a sharp nose." Innkeeper Chou's voice came from the darkness.
"The smell of blood is too strong, it's impossible not to smell it." Sima Youyue shot out a ray of light and lit up the room. Shopkeeper Chou was lying on a chaise lounge. "What did you do to anger the heavens and the people? How could he be so severely injured? Your waiter doesn't know that you're injured so badly, right? "
Innkeeper Chou laughed bitterly and said, "I didn't tell him. I was afraid of scaring him."
"If you die, won't he know?" Sima You Yue saw that there were lights all around the room. She lit them up and the whole room lit up. "Why did you call me here?"
"I want you to help me bring Xiao 'er to the Innumerable Green Palace. Cough cough … Hand him over to the Soaring Cloud Palace Master. "Innkeeper Chou said.
"You really are from the Innumerable Green Palace." Sima Youyue said, "We're not familiar with each other. Aren't you afraid that I won't agree to your request?"
"I naturally have conditions that can move you." Innkeeper Chou said.
"Then aren't you afraid that I won't do the job after taking it?" She asked again.
"Haha …" Innkeeper Chou laughed and said, "I've lived for so many years and I'm quite good at reading people. You're not that kind of person. "
"You really think too highly of me." Sima Youyue said, "You were beaten up to this state right? If I were to bring Xiao 'er out of Sky Tiger Ridge, I'm afraid that I would be killed before reaching the Innumerable Green Palace. "
"You're really smart, much smarter than I thought." Innkeeper Chou no longer looked like a greedy shopkeeper. His aura was even stronger than Zhou Hai Mo's. "So are you willing or not? If you agree, I'll give you a reward. "
Sima Youyue walked over and casually pulled a stool to sit down, saying, "I'm very interested in your reward. Why don't you tell me about it and see if it can move me."
Innkeeper Chou's thoughts moved and a box appeared on the short table beside him. Sima Youyue picked up the box and opened it. Inside was an array stone the size of a palm.
The bigger the array stone, the higher the level of array it could set up. Most array stones were only the size of a longan. Some were the size of a lychee. Those that were the size of an egg were relatively rare. But this one was actually the size of a palm!
This was enough to show its value.
Even someone as knowledgeable as her could not help but be moved by this array stone.
"What do you think?" Innkeeper Chou asked.
Sima Youyue kept the box and said, "I was thinking that if you usually keep a lot of treasures, and if you die and I snatch them, there will definitely be more than this array stone. Anyway, your Xiao 'er won't be able to snatch them from us. Who knows, I might even be able to get a reward from your enemies with your heads! "
Innkeeper Chou calmly listened to Sima Youyue. He was neither anxious nor angry, as if he thought she was joking. When she finished, he opened his mouth and asked, "Do you want to make this deal?"
Sima Youyue saw that Innkeeper Chou was not angry and stopped joking, saying, "You really know how to cater to my interests. I am indeed interested in your array stone, but I don't intend to get involved in your business. "
Innkeeper Chou's eyes darkened.
"But I can make a deal with you." She continued.
"What deal?"
"I'll heal your injuries and get the array stone. As for your Xiao 'er, I'll let you take care of him. What do you think? "
Innkeeper Chou looked at Sima Youyue. When he was sure that she was not joking, his eyes flashed with a hint of playfulness.
"Are you a doctor or an alchemist?"
"Both." Sima Youyue said, "So, do you agree or not? If you drag this out, it will be difficult to treat you. I'll have to raise the price then! "
"You're an array master." Innkeeper Chou said.
"But that won't stop me from becoming an alchemist."
"Deal."
"Great." Sima Youyue patted her thigh and kept the box containing the array stone into her spirit pagoda. Then, she took out her silver needles and laid the chaise lounge flat. She quickly stripped Innkeeper Chou of his clothes, leaving only his underwear.
Innkeeper Chou watched as Sima Youyue took out her silver needles. It was the first time he had seen someone treat injuries this way.
"Aren't you supposed to give me pills? Why are you using these needles to treat my injuries? "He could not help but ask.
"Of course you have to take pills. But some parts of your body have already lost their functions. If you don't use the needles, it won't work even if you take pills. "
Sima Youyue took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth. Then, she disinfected her hands and the needles. She picked up the needles and stabbed them into Innkeeper Chou's body.
It was the first time Innkeeper Chou had been stabbed with a needle. Moreover, Sima Youyue was stabbing into his vital acupoints. Those places would be very painful if he understood them.
Seeing the needles, he instinctively closed his eyes.
