Chapter 195 Green Plum
When Meng Zhao heard this, he patted the water bag on his waist, and his expression was fun.
"Mr. Shi, if you are thirsty, you don't have to pick any green plums. I have ready-made clear water here."
Shi Jie's face was awkward and explained,
"Actually, I just feel a little slim. I want to pick some green plums to satisfy my cravings. Do you want it?"
This is the truth. The extremely vicious stubborn man is good at drinking and meat, and likes singing and watching operas. This is a preference and hobby.
Not every warrior is like a madman, focusing all his energy and mind on martial arts.
Shi Jie likes childhood sweethearts, and he can also say that sour plums are not so difficult to understand. At most, he is a little bit too small to be able to overcome.
After all, I usually have a master-like style, but I feel greedy like a child, which is really embarrassing.
However, people have their own weaknesses. When they meet green plums, they will eat. This is a habit that Shi Jie developed since he was young. After following him for so many years, he couldn't change it, and he didn't want to change it.
Meng Zhao nodded, and looked at the lush green plum forest in the dim light, saying,
"Okay, then I'll ask Mr. Shi to pick some green plums for me and Bo Zhong to quench our thirst."
Before Shi Jie finished listening, he was already like a monkey, and rushed out in a flash, looking very frivolous.
Lu Zhong took a step forward at this time, and saw Meng Zhao looking at Shi Jie with solemnity and worry, his lips moved, and he used the sound to transmit the secret Dharma.
"Young Master, don't worry, this green plum tree was transplanted by an old fruit farmer with 30 years of experience. It costs a lot. He also turned the soil on it and kept it seamlessly. He couldn't see any clues."
Meng Zhao didn't think there was anything perfect in the world, and he could not see any clues. He could only say that he could do his best and leave his destiny.
This time, I came to Longshou Mountain with Shi Jie and Lu Zhong to get the Tshu Xiu treasure. I took a huge risk, but I had to do it.
After all, according to Shi Jie, the gate of the Secret Realm of Cave Heaven must collect more than two keys to open it.
It is wrong, Shi Jie has already opened the treasure, and there is no need to tell Meng Zhao about this, causing so many troubles.
Judging from the strength ratio alone, he, a acquired man, basically has no sense of existence. Lu Zhong is old and his cultivation is not as good as Shi Jie's behind him, so he and Lu Zhong combined, neither of them are Shi Jie's opponents.
Besides, the relationship between the two is also very good. If the other party attacks him, he will never be soft-hearted.
Of course, it is not impossible to find other Meng family masters to protect him, but in this case, the matter of Tu Xiu's treasure would inevitably be leaked. It was a dilemma. After weighing the pros and cons, he gave up.
When his own strength is not as strong as the other party, Meng Zhao naturally has to focus on the wrong path.
Before being taken away by Kumara, the demon bat told Meng Zhao with hatred that Shi Jie likes sour plums and must eat them when they see them. Sour plums are also green plums, so Meng Zhao has used such a great effort to transplant a green plum forest to plot against Shi Jie.
As for whether it can be successful, Meng Zhao cannot guarantee it, but looking at Shi Jie's performance, he is 50% sure.
Soon, Shi Jie's body movements sprinted and returned with a cool breeze. He spread the leather in his hand with great interest, revealing the moist and lustery green plum hidden inside.
His eyes were hot, but he seemed very cautious. He picked two big men from it and distributed them to Meng Zhao and Lu Zhong, and then he said a little hurriedly.
"Brother Meng, try it quickly and see how it tastes?"
Sure enough, even though Shi Jie had this flaw, he was still very alert and did not take it rashly. Instead, he asked Meng Zhao and Lu Zhong to taste it before he could speak.
This is also the old world. In the most difficult times in the past, in order to avoid poisoning, they often only drink water that others have drunk and only eat vegetables that others have eaten. Although it is not very hygienic, they can only do this for the sake of life.
It's like sharing green plums, just a trivial matter.
Meng Zhao's expression was not obvious at all. He calmly took Qingmei, threw out a silk handkerchief embroidered with his name from his cuff and gently wiped it. Then he opened his mouth and took a bite. The juice splashed out, which was clearly seen by Shi Jie.
"Well, the taste is pretty good, sour and sweet, Mr. Shi, you can try it too!"
Shi Jie did not start to move, but saw Lu Zhong stuffing a piece into his mouth, and then he felt relieved and enjoyed the first delicacy that he must eat in his heart with interest.
Meng Zhao and Lu Zhong tried to breathe, and their hearts were much more at ease, of course, it was Lu Zhong.
In his opinion, this trip to Qingmei is an extremely important backup. If it can be successful, Meng Zhao will be safe. If he cannot, even if he gets that huge treasure, he will be in danger of losing it.
Meng Zhao is different. The line of Qingmei is just his second-level guarantee and the real trump card. He stayed behind from the moment he rescued Shi Jie, but he just didn't tell others.
After pausing for about two incense sticks, seeing Shi Jie picking green plums three times in a row, the more he eats, the less he has enough, Meng Zhao had to remind him,
"Mr. Shi, it's getting late. Should we set out and do a good job?
Anyway, this green plum tree grows here and cannot be moved away. When you come back, you can pick as much as you want.
No matter how bad it is, when I return home, I will set up a celebration banquet. Mr. Shi, you can enjoy anything you like. How do you think?"
Shi Jie realized that he wasted some time, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face, and said,
"It's my fault, let's set off now."
But he was about to set off, but he didn't know what he thought of, and stopped again and said,
"We are about to reach the ninth peak. The gate of the secret realm of Cave Heaven is at the top of the peak. Before we go there, I have a few words to remind you.
First, in the secret realm, only those holding the key can enter, so if Mr. Lu really arrives at the place, I can only ask you to wait outside, so I will go in first."
"You don't have to worry about the safety of Mr. Meng. The keys in our hands are not abnormal in this world today, and they are no different from scrap iron.
But when you enter the secret realm of Cave Heaven, you can use this treasure spoon as a medium to control the power of the heaven and earth in the secret realm of Cave Heaven, just like a master's method.
So, Mr. Meng has the power to protect himself, so you can rest assured that this is what you have."
Shi Jie first gave Meng Zhao and Lu Zhong a reassurance and continued,
"Second, I want to say that the secret realm of Cave Heaven is too mysterious. What are the dangers and how many mechanisms are there? I don't know. The treasure map in my hand is not complete. So after entering it, you must not take your own initiative. Everything must be followed by my arrangements so that you can gain the best interests."
When the matter was about to come, Shi Jie also missed the truth and admitted that the map in his hand was incomplete, which was contrary to what he said to Meng Zhao before that there was a complete map in his hand.
But at this moment, there is no time to pursue these things.
Lu Zhong's thin and old face was wrinkled in a ball. He was about to say something, but Meng Zhao reached out to stop him.
He looked at Shi Jie, who seemed pure and kind, and smiled gently and said trustworthyly.
"Okay, I believe in Mr. Shi. If you share it, you will benefit from it. If you divide it, you will suffer from it. If you enter the secret realm, please ask Mr. Shi to give more points."
