Long Tianhao stroked her long hair. Actually, this was not the only strange thing about the Poison Sect.
When and where it was founded and who created it had already become history and could no longer be traced.
But no one knew if it had left a good or bad legacy for the future generations.
Leaning against his warm arms, Lin Mengya slept soundly for the whole night.
The next day, when she was woken up by the commotion outside, the humanoid heater beside her had already left.
The thick and soft fox fur blanket seemed to be wrapped around his body warmth.
Lin Mengya stretched herself and rubbed her face against the soft blanket.
She always slept exceptionally well when he was around.
Baisu lifted the curtain and entered, but her face was solemn.
"Master, the Medicine Sect has sent someone over to see you."
Lin Mengya was stunned.
She had just caught a moustache yesterday and now someone from the Medicine Sect was here today. She wondered if there was any connection between the two.
Compared to her mysterious and elegant appearance a few days ago, Lin Mengya looked exceptionally capable in her purple robes that allowed her to move freely.
She saw a few people surrounded by the disciples of the Poison Sect when she stepped out.
Everyone greeted her when they saw her.
"Master!"
She nodded to them one by one before her eyes fell on a dozen people in the middle.
From their clothes, it was obvious that they were proper disciples of the Medicine Sect.
That was strange.
If they were here to cause trouble for her because of the moustache, these people would at least hide their identities.
She had some guesses at that moment.
"Greetings, Master of the Poison Sect."
They stepped forward to greet her.
Although they were all very arrogant, their etiquette was not bad at all.
Lin Mengya nodded and asked expressionlessly, "Is there anything urgent that you came to see me for?"
"Master Gong, you worry too much. We were just passing by so we came to greet you."
Greet?
Lin Mengya did not think that their motive was that simple.
"Oh, I see."
"And we came here with a presumptuous request."
She raised her eyebrows. The young man who was leading the group was still smiling politely and warmly.
However, there was a look of determination in his eyes.
"Since it's a presumptuous request, you don't have to say it."
Her smile was faint but the words that came out of her mouth were harsh.
Not expecting her to say this, the man was stunned, and then his expression became ugly.
"Sect Master Gong really knows how to joke. It's actually not a big deal. However, this forest used to be an attractive location for the Medicine Order. After all, this is a matter of first come first served. Therefore, I hope that everyone from Poison Sect can understand this. "
The moment he said that, the expressions of everyone from Poison Sect changed.
Regardless of whether these words were true or false, just based on the relationship between the two sects, there was absolutely no reason for them to give way.
However, they all remembered the Order Master's orders. Without her permission, they were not allowed to have any personal conflicts with the Medicine Order.
Everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Lin Mengya stared at the members of the Medicine Order and the smile on her lips grew even more radiant.
"And here I was wondering what it was. I'm so sorry, it's not that we don't want to give up this place. It's just that the members of the Medicine Order don't have the ability to stay here."
The Medicine Order disciple raised an eyebrow and said with a smile that did not reach his eyes, "This forest is truly strange. However, it is also because of this that we cannot bear to see you all suffer. Why not
Move to another place to avoid unnecessary casualties. We are also doing this for your own good. "
Heh, that's a nice way to put it but it's not human nature.
Lin Mengya knew why these people came. They just wanted to suppress her.
Unfortunately, this wish was just a delusion.
"I'm not joking. How about this, if you can circle around the forest and come back safely, we'll move. If you can't, then blame it on your own incompetence. You can't blame anyone else. "
As soon as she said this, the members of Poison Sect began to clamor.
Everyone was afraid that they would be cowardly and tried to goad them into action.
This time, the members of the Medicine Order had no choice but to go.
"Alright. Since Order Master Gong has spoken, we'll prove it to you! When the time comes, I hope that you'll keep your word! "
The disciples of the Medicine Order were still too young and had fallen for their trap so easily.
Lin Mengya nodded with a relaxed look on her face.
"Then please."
The disciples of the Medicine Order left with a flick of their sleeves. Lin Mengya leisurely followed behind them. The members of Poison Sect followed her out of the campsite.
This place could only be considered as the edge of the forest. The disciples of the Medicine Order probably had something up their sleeves so they only glanced at them disdainfully before walking into the forest in a spurt of energy.
Unexpectedly, he had only taken a few steps when he frowned in confusion.
Then, for some unknown reason, he seemed to be drunk as he stumbled along the edge of the forest. In the end, he fell head first onto the ground.
His companions outside the forest cried out in shock and hurried over to help him up.
After walking out of the forest with much difficulty, the man shook his head and regained consciousness.
"What, what's wrong with me?"
He asked in confusion. His companions next to him had an ugly look on their faces.
He looked in the direction of Poison Sect with his guard up. Then, he whispered something into his partner's ear.
"What? That's impossible! "
The man's face was filled with shock while his companions replied resentfully, "What's impossible about it? We've seen it with our own eyes. This place isn't as simple as it looks! "
Lin Mengya remained calm and composed. She crossed her arms as if she was watching a show.
"How about it? Do you want to try again? "
She asked in a relaxed manner but the man on the other side nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
There was still one person in the Medicine Order who refused to give up. After putting his companions down, he cautiously walked into the forest again.
This time, he stayed for a few minutes longer than the one before him. Then, he mysteriously came out again.
"Why, why did I come out?"
He rubbed his eyes and asked in disbelief when he saw his companions, who were supposed to be behind him, suddenly appear in front of him.
Their two consecutive failures had caused the Medicine Order to feel extremely defeated.
The first person who had entered the forest struggled to stand up. His footsteps were still a little unsteady.
"I didn't expect this place to be so powerful. Since that's the case, doesn't that mean that the members of Poison Sect can't stay here? At least we have the power to protect ourselves. "
Pfft, what a shameless fellow.
Lin Mengya ignored him and casually pointed at one of the Poison Sect members.
"Do you see that little yellow flower? Pluck it for me."
"Yes, Master!"
The young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old and was at his lively and active age.
He coldly glared at the members of the Medicine Order, then hopped into the forest.
However, the scene that the Medicine Order had anticipated did not happen.
The young man did not seem to be affected in the slightest. He even walked the same path as the other two.
Then, he took a detour to pluck the little flower.
Then, he returned to her side, safe and sound.
Lin Mengya took the little yellow flower and smiled.
"Now, have you all seen it clearly?"
Facts speak louder than words. Besides, this was not a slap in the face, it was a mad slap on the faces of the Medicine Order members.
Their faces were ashen but they had already said what they had said. If they were to retract their words now, it would only make them look even more humiliated.
The leader of the group, the young man, cupped his hands and suppressed his anger, "It's our fault for not being skilled enough. We've embarrassed ourselves in front of you, Master Gong. We'll leave now. I hope that everyone will be safe and sound here. "
Lin Mengya nodded and waved her little hand to send them off.
After they had left, the surrounding Poison Order members could no longer hold back their laughter.
"Hahahaha, did you see the expressions on those people's faces? It was as if they had eaten Chinese goldthread. It was so ugly!"
"That's right. They're usually so arrogant but now, they've still lost to us."
Lin Mengya had predicted yesterday that the Medicine Order would not participate in the competition honestly. So, she had ordered the group to set up some small things around the campsite.
Among them, there was a Bewitching Formation that Ah Er and Ah San had helped to set up.
It had initially been for self-protection. Now, it seems that it had come in handy.
"Alright, everyone has had enough fun. Let's hurry up and get to work."
She said calmly.
The hundred over people immediately responded and scattered in all directions.
Lin Mengya watched the direction in which the Medicine Order members had left. Her brows seemed to be shrouded in green smoke as she looked worried.
"Send someone to keep an eye on them and find out what they're plotting."
Baisu immediately obeyed the order. Lin Mengya looked around her and entered the forest.
Nothing in the forest reacted to her. Lin Mengya strolled through the forest. She looked like she was walking casually but every step she took was calculated.
Soon, a quiet campsite appeared in front of her.
Seeing her coming, several figures immediately flashed out from inside.
"My Lady."
She nodded and looked at the campsite which was large enough to accommodate everyone from the Poison Order. She nodded in satisfaction.
It was said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. What more a local rabbit like her?
"Thank you for your hard work."
The two of them waved their hands and said that it was their duty.
Lin Mengya circled around the campsite and left.
She knew that the Medicine Order would not leave just like that. This was only a temporary residence that she had prepared.
If the Medicine Order members dared to come, they would be dead meat.
The entire afternoon was calm and tranquil.
One hundred and eighty people were busy with their own tasks. They split up the work and gradually became familiar with it.
Although it was said that they were only going to get rid of poisonous insects, they would also get rid of plants that were too poisonous or easily eaten by humans and animals.
In just one short afternoon, there were already two large piles of spoils in the campsite by nightfall.
Next, it was time for the concoction team to work.
Those that could be roasted over fire would be dried at low temperatures.
Those that needed to be dried in the shade would be strung up using grass as a rope and placed in an empty space in the shade.
All of them worked with great joy. Everyone worked together and their relationship became more harmonious.
Lin Mengya also helped out. However, she was different from the others in that she would pick one or two items from time to time and place them in a basket by the side.
After a short while, they had accumulated half a basket.
Everyone was curious and could not help but steal a few glances.
