Chapter 412 - 412: From Now on, You're My Big Brother!
The content on the letter read: "Little Qin Qin, didn't expect you to still think about your sister, huh, sister is even happy... When sister is done being busy, she will come to find you."
This letter was brought back by a parrot that Qin Feng had once sent to Medicine King, to inquire about the method of cultivating soil for Spiritual Medicine using the Moon Concealing Stone.
"See! I told you, I know Medicine King."
Qin Feng said.
At this moment, the old man was dumbfounded and said in amazement, "This, this is indeed Medicine King's handwriting!! Kid, you, you have actually... caught the eye of Medicine King?!"
"Cough cough, keep it down, keep it down."
Qin Feng said with an awkward smile.
Although he had always disliked it, he could use it to his advantage at this time.
"Now, do you believe that I can obtain the 'Drunk Life and Dream Death' wine?"
"I believe, I believe..."
The old man excitedly grasped Qin Feng's hands, looking at him passionately and said, "From the first glance I saw you, I felt we were fated! You look so much like my grandson, really, how about adopting me as your god-grandfather?"
"Roll roll..."
Qin Feng awkwardly withdrew his hands, saying, "I am a Doctor, don't think I can't tell, you're still an old virgin, where did you get a grandson from."
"..."
The old man laughed awkwardly twice and said, "Or else, let's become sworn brothers who will share life and death together?"
"Sorry, I don't have that habit."
Qin Feng felt embarrassed again.
He really wasn't used to calling the old man a sworn brother.
"Then let's do this, I'll acknowledge you as my elder brother!" the old man held Qin Feng's hand tightly and said, "From now on, you are my big brother!!"
"Stop it, I..."
Qin Feng was speechless and wanted to object again.
But the old man was desperate now, with a crying face he said, "Big brother! If this goes on, I might have to start calling you grandpa, let's just be done with it..."
"..."
Qin Feng was at a loss for words.
He could tell the old man was craving for wine but didn't realize his craving was that strong; probably thinking that since Medicine King favored him, he could have as much good wine as he wanted in the future.
"Forget it, let's just leave it at that for now!" Qin Feng also didn't want to keep arguing, waving his hand and saying, "First, show me the fragment of your map."
The old man was quick to action, and took out the fragment to show it.
Qin Feng then realized that the map on the fragment was of the Tamu Desert!
"So that's how it is..."
He stroked his chin, pondering.
The situation was, the old man's fragment clearly indicated the direction to the center of the desert, but not the location of the center.
While his own fragment.
Was actually the center of the desert, the place rumored to be where the Ancient City was buried.
"Alright, got the way now!"
Qin Feng memorized the map and returned it to the old man.
Then, based on the direction on the map, he proceeded into the desert demon.
The old man was curious and asked Qin Feng, "Did you come to the Tamu Desert in search of the treasure mentioned in rumors?"
"I was just curious and came to look for it."
Qin Feng said.
He wasn't interested in treasure hunting.
But since the fragment he had was the location of a treasure, he would feel like missing out if he didn't check it out.
"That's very courageous of you, your cultivation is too low to be here."
The old man said.
Note: Check * for any corrections.
The old man's cultivation was of a Third Grade Grandmaster; he could cover thousands of meters in a blink of an eye, and it was too slow for him to walk with Qin Feng.
Qin Feng didn't want to go slow either.
With his current strength, using the Human Emperor Step, he would not be slower than a Third Grade Grandmaster, but he felt that the Heavenly Map seemed to be no simple matter, not just depicting the location of the treasure; it was better to follow the route step by step.
Moreover, in a place like the desert, moving too fast was very likely to lead to getting lost.
"No, I can't wait for you anymore; I'm going ahead!"
The old man said.
Having said this.
He stepped on the yellow sand and flew forward.
Qin Feng wasn't in a hurry and continued to step forward with the parrot.
A quarter of an hour later.
Suddenly, the old man returned from afar, flying back on the yellow sand.
"What's the matter?"
Qin Feng asked.
"I forgot to ask for your name, big brother, so I can find you when this is all over," the old man said.
"..."
Qin Feng felt a bit embarrassed and said, "My name is Qin Feng. If we don't see each other in the desert, you can find me back in Lake City."
"Alright! See you later, big brother!"
The old man vanished with a swift move and hurried away.
Qin Feng knew his enthusiasm was simply because he wanted to enjoy some good wine.
Those with addictions should try to control them.
After he left.
Qin Feng and the parrot continued onward.
Their speed was not slow, certainly much faster than the average person. Following the map and directions from before, they had already walked for two days and nights.
Even though he was a cultivator.
But after two days and nights in the endless desert, he also felt a bit tired.
At night.
The desert was extremely cold.
Qin Feng set up his tent, ready to lie down and rest.
Just as he was falling asleep.
He suddenly felt something uncomfortable under his waist.
He got up to check.
It was a sports shoe, one that belonged to a lady.
"Why does this shoe look familiar?"
Qin Feng muttered to himself.
But he still couldn't remember where he had seen it.
He didn't think much more about it and lay back down to sleep.
The next day.
He continued on, enduring the poisonous heat of the sun and the harsh wind and sand.
This went on for another three or four days.
Qin Feng climbed up a sand dune and saw in the distance a group of saxaul trees. These trees were a landmark on the map, which indicated that there were at most two more days of travel left to reach the destination.
Just as he was about to move forward.
He suddenly tripped over something.
Qin Feng looked down.
It was a skeleton.
Looking around further.
There were many corpses in the yellow sand; some were only bones, while others still had clothes, but the corpses were dried up as if they hadn't been dead for long.
"There are so many bodies here; there must be something going on."
Qin Feng became cautious.
Moving forward warily.
He suddenly heard a series of agonizing screams coming from the direction of the saxaul trees and bushes ahead!
It was the sound of a human!
Qin Feng took a quick Human Emperor Step to get there and discovered, in the midst of the saxaul trees, there were six or seven people and the one screaming was actually Lin Xue'er!
Lin Xue'er.
After participating in the Jiang City Treasure Appraisal Conference with her and her grandfather, she always regarded Qin Feng as her future husband. She believed that he and Xu Yunxiao were doomed to divorce. After returning to Lake City from Jiang City, she went on a new archaeological mission and left Lake City.
Unexpectedly, he had met her here!
Qin Feng hurried over and saw that she had been bitten on the leg by a lizard-like creature, with a large area of bruising around the wound.
"It's poisonous!"
He realized that the situation was dire and immediately, without any explanation, started to suck the poison from Lin Xue'er's wound.
The others standing by, seeing a stranger come over, were somewhat bewildered.
A boy wearing glasses shouted at Qin Feng, "Hey, what are you doing? Why are you being so rude to Xue'er; you're so indecent!"
"She's got poison in her wound."
Qin Feng said.
But the boy with glasses didn't stop, shouting again, "Don't think I don't know; you're taking advantage of this opportunity to take liberties with Xue'er, you're shameless!"
"..."
After Qin Feng sucked out another mouthful of poison, he looked up at the guy with glasses and said, "Or maybe you'd like to suck the poison out?"
