On the other side of the continent,

Yan Jingshuo was still wandering around the entrance, wondering where the real entrance point was?

"Master, I found a mark, but it doesn't look like a mark."

Ying Yichao bowed to Yan Jingshuo who was in the carriage.

"Let's go and see..."

Yan Jingshuo lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.

Soon, they arrived at the place where Chu Xi asked Sheng Gu to mark it.

Looking at the ghostly scribbles on the wall, Ying Yi said in a deep voice:

"Master, this is it."

Yan Jingshuo looked at the rows of black and cross-shaped faces on the wall and was somewhat speechless. This was obviously not Chu Xi's handwriting, but it was somewhat similar to the marks she had drawn for him before, but it didn't feel like it.

Because among the many marks Chu Xi drew for him, there was no cross symbol.

"Isn't it?" Yan Jingshuo wondered.

Yan Jingshuo felt unwilling to give up, so he began to examine it carefully, until he saw the crooked little smiling face in the corner, then he smiled knowingly.

Seeing the familiar mark, Yan Jingshuo began to check the surroundings.

I found that there was nothing around except this dilapidated wall and a lake.

Yan Jingshuo looked at the endless lake, not knowing what he was thinking. He murmured:

“We still need to cross this lake?”

"Master, I found several footprints nearby and traces of a ship docked on the shore."

Yingyi quickly reported what he had discovered to Yan Jingshuo.

"Then go and prepare the boat."

"Yes"

After five days of treatment by Chu Xi, Yi Yue Haotian's injuries were completely healed and the poison was completely eliminated.

"Thank you, Miss Chu."

Yi Yue Haotian stood up excitedly and stretched his body, feeling relaxed. Finally, he didn't have to stay in the room all the time.

Is he really okay?

Yi Yue Haotian thought his life was over, but he never expected that he would still be able to look forward to a day of recovery.

"No need to thank me, I'm just doing the job for money. Please remember my three requests and the reward of 100 taels of gold, Master Yiyue."

"Well... Miss Chu, this 100 taels of gold seems a bit too much. After all, it is gold, not silver. I'm afraid my uncle can't afford that much!"

Yi Yue Haotian said a little embarrassedly.

Although they are a noble family, all of them are warriors, unlike the Shangguan family who understand business and whose members are all talented.

"Does Patriarch Yi Yue want to turn against his will?"

Chu Xi's expression suddenly turned cold, and his watery eyes were staring at Yi Yue Haotian unhappily.

"No, I don't dare."

Yi Yue Haotian responded quickly.

He is not the kind of ungrateful person. Chu Xi saved his life, so he only admires her very much in his heart. How could he dare to provoke her?

"That's it...that...Miss Chu, can you give uncle a lower price? I'm a bit poor."

"what?"

Chu Xi couldn't believe his ears. After all, living in such an elegant and classy place, how could he be short of money?

The head of a hidden family actually said he was poor?

Chu Xi stared at Yi Yue Haotian up and down, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Haha... Miss Chu, this is true. Uncle doesn't have that much money."

"Master Yi Yue, please don't lie to me."

Chu Xi felt that Yi Yue Haotian was just stingy and couldn't bear to part with his little things.

"How dare I? If you don't believe me, ask Liuyun. He has to work as a clerk to support his family now."

Yi Yue Liuyun, who was originally watching the fun from the side, immediately laughed awkwardly when he saw his uncle pointed at him:

"Ha... ahaha... it's my duty to support my family."

Chu Xi saw Yi Yue Liuyun's reaction and wondered if what Yi Yue Haotian said was true?

"Master Yi Yue, if you have no money, why did you agree so readily when we negotiated the terms?"

"It's not... it's not that Miss Chu didn't give me a chance to hesitate."

Yi Yue Haotian hesitated.

"Then Master Yi Yue wants to default on his debt?"

Nangong Yu, who was sitting on the chair, said coldly.

"That's not true. I, Yiyue Haotian, am the patriarch of the Yiyue clan. How could I deny my debt?"

Yi Yue Haotian responded in a loud voice, then frowned slightly.

After spending these days together, he discovered that the man in red, who looked somewhat similar to himself, was very hostile towards him. Could it be that he had offended this man in red before?

Yi Yue Haotian felt puzzled.

"Okay, how much can Master Itsuki pay now?"

"How about eighty taels of gold?"

Yi Yue Haotian looked at Chu Xi with a smile again, with a somewhat flattering look.

Nangong Yu turned his head away, unable to bear to look at the scene. Is this really his biological father?

Why are you so servile?

It feels so embarrassing.

"Okay, for Brother Liuyun's sake, I'll give you a 20% discount."

Seeing that he had such a good attitude, Chu Xi decided to let it go.

She didn't need this little bit of gold, because the space in the Fire Cloud Bracelet was already piled high with gold, silver and jewelry. She asked for the hundred taels of gold just to punish Yi Yue Haotian and help Nangong Yu vent his anger.

"Cough cough..."

Yi Yue Liuyun coughed lightly and felt his cheeks getting slightly hot. It turned out that his face was worth twenty taels of gold?

This is really too much of a compliment to him.

Yi Yue Liuyun looked at Chu Xi with burning eyes. He was determined to be with this girl.

Not only is she an excellent doctor, she also has a good personality, and most importantly, she can give him face.

Ha ha……

"Miss Chu, what does this 20% discount mean?"

Yi Yue Haotian didn't quite understand.

Does this 20% discount mean breaking human bones into 80% pieces, or simply giving a 20% discount?

"It's just... it's just... it's about giving people a discount when buying something."

"Are you sure you didn't break any bones?"

"No, I can't beat you, Master Yiyue, either."

Chu Xi looked embarrassed, she had forgotten that the ancients did not have the concept of discounts.

"Then why is it called a discount?"

"This... is a little hard to explain. Anyway, it means that we will give you a discount based on the original price. For example, the price just mentioned was originally 100 taels of gold, but because of the discount, we only need to give you 80 taels. This is what a discount means. It doesn't mean that you will break bones."

"So that's how it is. Miss Chu is not only beautiful but also generous. Whoever marries you would be blessed in his previous life. Hahaha..."

Yi Yue Haotian spoke in a flattering manner. It turned out that he was overthinking. He thought that this little girl who hadn't even fully grown her hair wanted to break his bones to pay off her debt.

"Thank you for the compliment, Master Yi Yue. When will you give me the money?"

Chu Xi rubbed his fingers towards Yi Yue Haotian like a money-grubber.

"Okay, I'll give it to you right away."

Yi Yue Haotian immediately turned around and opened the cabinet in the room, took out a small box, and saw many gold ingots neatly placed inside.

He counted carefully, took out eighty taels of gold and gave them to Chu Xi, then locked the remaining gold ingots in the box back into the cabinet, and locked it in front of them.

The three people present were so shocked by Yi Yue Haotian's series of amazing operations that their mouths could not close and their eyes widened.
