Thinking of this, it seems that Gu Zhihua finally calmed down. The frustration of being shocked by Gu Qiang and Shen Zhongbai was alleviated a lot, and he turned and left.

Gu Qiang turned his head, Shen Qianshan was sitting in the pavilion holding something in his hand, looking at the lotus pond in front of him, he seemed to be feeding fish.

He walked over and greeted Shen Qianshan. He put down the things in his hands and after looking at Gu Qiang for a long time, he finally said, "You and I don't have to be so polite."

Then he pointed to the stone stool opposite, Gu Qiang was taken aback and had to sit on it.

"Since the prince is here today, I happen to have something I need help from the prince, can you..." Gu Qiang said while looking at Shen Qianshan expectantly. The latter's eyes were originally looking around, seeming to appreciate it. She wanted Shen Qianshan to ask about the scenery of the house, but she didn't expect Shen Qianshan to nod and say, "Okay."

"The court lady hasn't said what the matter is, the prince agreed?" Gu Qiang asked in surprise.

Shen Qianshan turned his head and met Gu Qiang's eyes, and said affectionately: "As long as you ask, it's fine."

Gu Qian didn't take Shen Qianshan's words to heart. His reaction has always been a little strange recently, as if it was something she suggested.

In the evening, both Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang changed into black clothes. One person and one horse were heading towards the Suxin Temple, which has Perennial Heart Grass. The nature of this palace is the same as the Xiaoyao Temple in Shen Qianshan, both in the deep mountains.

There are often such palaces in the deep mountains of the capital. They are generally used as a place for princes to cultivate. During the summer, the emperor or the imperial concubine will come over, but many of these palaces have their own housekeepers. ability.

Gu Qian didn't know these things before, and Shen Qianshan told her along the way.

In the evening, two people’s horses were tied to the edge of the tree under the mountain. Shen Qianshan raised his head and moved his chin, and then said lightly: “Follow this road to the Suxin Temple. The Suxin Grass you are looking for is there. there."

Gu Qiang stretched out her hand and knocked on her leg. She even felt that this leg was not her own. She was able to persevere in a long journey, which made her feel a little surprised.

The road to the mountain was winding and winding. I didn't know the smell of flowers around. It was very fragrant and light. The smell was very comfortable. Shen Qianshan walked beside Gu Qiang, for fear that she would fall from the mountain because of fatigue.

The sky has gradually become dark, black is spreading, and the fog has risen at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally enveloped the entire mountain.

There was the chirping of small insects, and the surroundings seemed more quiet. Shen Qianshan turned his head and asked softly: "How do you know that the Perennial Heart Grass can solve the plague?"

Gu Qiang was probably tired from walking, sitting on the stone beside him, and said casually: "If the Perennial Heart Grass can't detoxify, the people in Suxin Temple will not be so precious."

This sounds like an answer to the wrong question, but Shen Qianshan doesn’t care that much anyway. Now no matter what the method is, whether it’s useful or not, he has to try it. I don’t know which decision can change the current situation. This is also what Shen Qianshan heard about Gu嫱's proposal immediately followed.

Although Gu Qiang was nervous in his heart, Shen Qianshan was no less worried about this country than Gu Qiang.

After walking for a while, the road finally became wider, and then on the tip of the mountain not far away was a black building. The building was magnificent and huge, like a wild beast lurking in the quiet night. Big mouth. Waiting for the prey to be caught.

Gu Qiang stood at the door and found that the door was closed tightly. Since he had already walked here, no matter what the situation was inside, he had to bite the bullet and walk in.

Shen Qianshan seemed to feel Gu Qiang's nervousness, so he stretched out his hand and motioned her to put it up, but he didn't expect that she would walk in first after just a glance.

The cyan gate is very solemn. At this time, because the sky is already dark, after entering, there is a stone-paved corridor. The buildings on both sides are very style. At the end of the stone road, there is a large hall. Gu Qiang can’t pay attention to the people around. With strange eyes, walked to the hall with Shen Qianshan.

On the chair in the middle of the hall, there was a middle-aged man sitting. The man was wearing blue clothes, which was very similar to the clothes of other people in this hall. It should be the uniform costume of Suxin Hall.

Standing in this hall, the surrounding lights flickered, stretching Gu Qiang's shadow very long. The main hall is very empty, surrounded by tables and chairs. At first glance, you can tell that it is for guest use. The man is sitting there with a bead in his hand. Because of long time playing, the bead is shining with a different light. In the dark hall, there is a different light, which makes people unable to remove their eyes.

The man slowly raised his head, squinted his eyes, and scanned the bodies of Gu Qiang and Shen Qianshan. This is a man of about forty years old. His appearance is not outstanding, and he doesn't even have the domineering attitude he should have in that position. And aura.

When Gu Qiang met the man's eyes, he already understood the man's character in his heart.

The man's age is there, and he doesn't look very reliable. The look in people's eyes is very casual, and it seems a little arrogant. If this man is the master of this Suxin Temple, it would be a little difficult to get Suxin Grass today.

The man retracted his eyes, then played with his beads again, and said casually: "What's the matter for the two of you to come to my Suxin Temple?"

In fact, what a man asks is very questionable. Those who can come to Suxindian do it for the herbs in Suxindian. No matter what kind of palace it is, they have a trump card in their hands to be able to stay in this capital. There is a place, and Su Xin Temple is just such a palace. There are a few herbs in it that can be said to be a panacea. For many diseases, these herbs are added to the pills, and there is no problem with any disease.

Of course, I only know what I have in my heart. There are so many people who come to this Suxin Temple. Men are no strangers to it. Whether it is a royal family or a commoner, or a businessman, there are many people who want herbs. Here, there is no need to give face.

Shen Qianshan said to the man: "It is indeed a bit presumptuous to come this time, but because the capital is causing a plague, I heard that the heart grass in the temple has the effect of eliminating the plague, so..."

Before Shen Qianshan's words were finished, the man sneered, put the beads in his hand on the table, looked up helplessly at the ceiling, and said: "People who come to my Suxin Temple want these herbs. Doesn’t everyone come to ask for it? If we don’t give it, it seems that our Suxin Temple doesn’t know how to save people. In this way, it’s actually very difficult for us to do it.”

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Shen Qianshan, as if he was deliberately mentioning him.

How could Shen Qianshan not know the meaning of this? He said to the man, "What do you want?"

The man discovered that Shen Qianshan was not a fool. Among the people who came before, he could understand his own hints like him, too few, too few, and even if someone understood the hints, they couldn't meet his own requirements.

"What can you give me?" the man asked rhetorically.

Shen Qianshan stood there quietly looking at the man, and when he met the man’s eyes, he was very quiet. There was no retreat. In the capital, his financial resources were good, and he naturally had his ability. This man’s requirements were not too excessive. , Try it yourself.

"If your request is worthy of Perennial Heart Grass, I can satisfy you." Shen Qianshan said.

Always hesitating here is no use at all, so Shen Qianshan decided to take the initiative and ask the man what he meant.

When the man heard Shen Qianshan's words, he knew that this person was not a simple little character. Since he wanted to eliminate the plague, he must be a royal person.

It would be better to take this opportunity to blackmail a sum of money so that the brothers in Su Xin Dian can live a good life.

The man made up his mind, his face suddenly changed into a face, and said to Shen Qianshan: "We don't want much, how about one hundred thousand taels of silver?"

This is really the lion's mouth wide open, and the palace owner is embarrassed to say such shameless words, making Shen Qianshan embarrassed, even if he is embarrassed to ask, Shen Qianshan is embarrassed to give it.

Of course, one hundred thousand taels of silver is nothing to Shen Qianshan, but he must ensure that this palace master can really give himself a heart-grass, and nothing else.

"If you can give me enough Suxincao to heal the disease, I can think about it." Shen Qianshan said slowly, he looked up at the palace master, the man's expression did not look very good.

There seems to be some conspiracy.

Sure enough, the man smiled and said, "I can't give you the saccharum vulgaris. You need to get it yourself. It grows on the mountain behind us. The road there is winding and steep. There are poisonous insects and beasts on the mountain. It's easy to get."

Is this for Shen Qianshan to take Gu Qiang to pick it up by himself? In the end, a few words of what the palace master said were true, and he suddenly felt a sense of being cheated.

Turning to look at Gu Qiang, at this moment only she decides whether to continue or return.

Gu Qiang looked at the high hall master coldly and asked indifferently: "You speak up, if we get the grass, will it be ours?"

The hall master nodded: "Of course, as long as you give me one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Gu Qiang didn’t have that much money anyway, but the hall master meant that after they paid the money, they had to go up the mountain to collect medicine by themselves, which was totally embarrassing them. In fact, the hall master’s original intention was that he didn’t want to give medicine at all. No matter how difficult it is deliberately, everyone can see this trick.

There was silence, Gu Wei frowned and nodded, and said to the hall master: "Lead the way."

The palace owner didn't expect that the girl actually agreed. In fact, to be honest, this was originally a fire pit. If they came out alive, they must get the money. If they died in it, it would have nothing to do with Su Xin Temple.

After all, the right to choose is theirs.
