169 I am a kind person (1/2)
Mo Wen took the map and looked at it carefully before exhaling deeply. Indeed, it was not a Blood Lingzhi mushroom. Although he had not seen the actual Blood Lingzhi mushroom, he was at least able to identify it easily.
After all, there were jade inscriptions of the different kinds of spiritual herbs and spiritual medicines in the Alchemy Room of Divine Pill Sect, with many images of the spiritual medicines which was similar to the actual objects.
Although this thing was not a Blood Lingzhi mushroom, it was a medium grade spiritual medicine. Its practical value to Mo Wen was way beyond the Blood Lingzhi mushroom at the present moment.
He recognized this thing. In his other world, it was not called Blood Lingzhi mushroom, but Blood Mushroom. Though there was only a one word difference, their natures were worlds apart; both were incomparable.
Blood Mushroom was also a spiritual medicine in the Immortal Cultivation world and was a priceless medium grade spiritual medicine. Mo Wen had used Blood Mushroom in concoction of pills in the past, and it was the highest grade of spiritual medicine that he had ever used.
He was only a medicine boy in Divine Pill Sect which allowed him to use the medium grade spiritual medicine to concoct pills. It was the Alchemist who gave him this favor after acknowledging his good comprehending ability.
If the indication on the map was indeed Blood Mushroom, he would be very determined to get it.
Silver Tooth Grass was only a low grade spiritual medicine, he didn't find it, but instead he encountered a higher grade medicine – Blood Mushroom.
”The location of this medicinal herb was marked out to be behind this mountain. I would bring you there to find it.”
Mo Wen glanced at FRB smilingly and said with a look that seemed to mean, ”I am Lei Feng, [1] who specialized in doing good deeds”.
”Err…”
FRB glanced at Mo Wen dubiously, as she kept feeling that this guy harbored malicious intention. It was so difficult begging him to save someone just now, so why would he help her find the medicinal herb now?
”I'd rather not…” FRB replied weakly.
”Why not? This matter is decided. You rest a bit, and we will continue after that.”
Mo Wen glared and decided on this matter immediately.
FRB lowered her head while her lips moved, but didn't dare to object.
She didn't know if this youngster in front of her actually had good or evil intentions, but she knew that if this youngster were to have evil intentions, they would be at his mercy. In the present situation, they could only play it by ear.
”What's your name?” Mo Wen asked, while raising his brows.
”I am Xu Qianqian,” Xu Qianqian said, as she lowered her head.
”I am Mo Wen. You may call me Brother Mo in the future. Don't worry – with Brother Mo around, you don't have to be afraid of tigers or lions in the Changbai Mountain, not to mention the few robbers.”
Mo Wen patted on Xu Qianqian's shoulders in a ”I will protect you” manner.
Xu Qianqian pouted her lips secretly. She would feel more uneasy with him around as he was more frightening than tigers and lions.
”Let's go.”
Mo Wen snatched the map from Xu Qianqian's hands, comparing the geographical location, and then looked at the trail towards the peak at a distance.
”My bodyguards…”
Xu Qianqian said hesitantly. Her bodyguards were injured and would be difficult for them to continue walking the mountain trails with her. According to her thinking, she intended to rest for a day and continue walking the next day.
”Why bother about them? Let them rest here. We only need the two of us to find the medicinal herb.”
Mo Wen said, while rolling his eyes. He didn't intend to bring a few guys who would hold them back.
”Miss…”
The bodyguard leader said, as he furrowed his brows and walked forward. As a bodyguard, how could they allow their mistress to follow a person with a dubious background? Furthermore, anyone could see that this guy definitely had an ulterior motive for following them.
”What? Do you have an objection?”
Mo Wen questioned, while he raised his brows and looked at the bodyguard.
When the bodyguard leader saw Mo Wen looking in his direction, he immediately felt uneasy. He opened his mouth, but didn't dare comment anything.
”You rest here, and wait for me to come back. If I don't come back within five days, you may go about your own ways.”
Xu Qianqian took a deep breath, looked at her bodyguards and instructed this.
At this juncture, they couldn't object but could only go according to Mo Wen's plan. If they were to infuriate him, not only they would suffer, the result of the matter would also remain unchanged.
She felt that she had just came out of the tigers' lair and went into a wolves' den.
”Miss…”
The bodyguard leader's face changed slightly, stepped forward, and blocked Xu Qianqian behind him while his eyes fixed on Mo Wen. Another bodyguard who was mobile also moved over rapidly to confront Mo Wen.
Mo Wen kept his hands at his back and looked askance at these bodyguards. Which security company produced these bodyguards? Absolutely brainwashed to be idiots.
”Listen to me. This is an order.”
Xu Qianqian furrowed her brows and commanded in a stern voice. It would be asking for trouble to go against Mo Wen now.
The bodyguards heard her words and could only retreat helplessly and let them go.
”Miss Qianqian, don't worry. I am a kind person, there will definitely be no danger following me,” Mo Wen nodded his head satisfyingly and said smilingly.
”Let's go,” Xu Qianqian glanced at Mo Wen and uttered coldly.
She considered herself bad luck to meet such a person, this bastard… a kind person? …
.....
”Can you walk faster?”
On the mountain trail, Mo Wen asked this as he rolled his eyes. Far behind him was a small, slender figure that was trudging up the mountain.
Xu Qianqian gasped for breath while her clothes were soaked with perspiration, absolutely too exhausted to utter a word.
That fellow, didn't he know that she's a girl? He didn't take care of her all the way and was still blaming her for being slow.
Her walking was not exactly slow, but this guy was not a human. After walking two to three hours of the mountain trails, he seemed to be as fresh as in the beginning and didn't have a single drop of perspiration.
