Chapter 1402: 1402
Chapter 1402 Gaining information with the help of wine
After listening to that and watching the man named Hu leave, the corners of Feng Jiu’s mouth twitched, revealing a cunning smile . She stretched out her hand and flicked her sleeves . A cloud of dusty powder fell to the ground and disappeared without a trace .
After she returned, she went to redeem her reward before going back to the peak to help the others deliver the medical herbs . A day’s time passed busily just like that… .
In the evening, while she was walking back to her cave dwelling, she saw Senior Brother Guo who had returned walking towards her with a big smile on his face .
“Feng Jiu, thank you for delivering medical herbs for me today . Come here, I brought this back for you . ” As he spoke, he handed her something wrapped in a greased paper bag from his basket .
Before she even opened the paper bag, Feng Jiu could smell the scent . Her eyes lit up and she said in surprise: “Senior Brother Guo, is this roast chicken?”
“Haha, that’s right . Us mountain folk aren’t greedy . Whereas you won’t eat the Fasting Pill and like to eat these things instead . I can’t afford to buy spirit poultry, but I can buy this roast chicken for you . ”
“Senior Brother Guo, you know me too well . Thank you . This is truly the best thing ever!” She said happily and then asked: “Senior Brother Guo, have you only just returned? Do you want to come over to my place for a couple of drinks?”
“Oh? You have wine?” He was a little surprised .
“Yes, a senior brother rewarded me a few days ago . I have a big jar! I haven’t drank any . ” She grinned: “Since there is roast chicken, it’s perfect to have a drink with! Besides, it’s time for dinner now . ”
“Since that’s the case, alright, let’s go to your place for a drink . Come on . ” He smiled and nodded and went to the cave dwelling with him .
In the cave dwelling, the two men sat by the stone table drinking wine and eating roast chicken while chatting . They went from being sober to drunk by the time they had drunk one third of the large jar of wine .

“Come come come, continue drinking, finish this cup . ”
Feng Jiu said . She held up a cup and drank another cup of wine then poured another cup for him . As she looked at drunk Senior Brother Guo, she grinned: “Guo, Senior Brother Guo, you are drunk . ”
“How is that possible? I am not drunk, not drunk . Let’s continue drinking . ” He waved his hand . His eyes were dazed and glassy, and his face was flushed . It was obvious through his vague words that he was drunk .
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu pretended to accidentally say: “Senior Brother Guo, Third Sun Patriarch treats Senior Uncle Shangguan so well! Her cave dwelling is so much bigger than the ones we live in . ”
“Yes, it’s pretty good . But you’ve only just got here, so you don’t know this . Core disciples are just in name, they haven’t gone through any ceremony, and, uh… . ”

He hiccuped and continued speaking: “The few of us who deliver medical herbs know that the Third Sun Patriarch is very strict . If he is not satisfied with the standard of the elixir pills refined by the five Senior Uncles, he will use corporal punishment . ”
“Oh? Really? Corporal punishment means they beaten?” She asked, dumbfounded . She saw him shaking his head drowsily, and after a while, he collapsed .
“Senior Brother Guo?” She called out and nudged him . When she saw that he was asleep, she let out a sigh and let him continue sleeping .
Corporal punishment? Could this be the reason why her mother was beaten? The news in the peak rarely reaches them . She had only just learned out about this from Senior Brother Guo . So Master Third Sun would use corporal punishment on his disciples if he was dissatisfied with the elixirs they refined .
