Chapter 50: I really have to cry
The Star Spirit Scroll took a careful look at him and found that he did not open his eyes at all. He just moved a ray of spiritual thought in his deep sleep.
Think about it, even if the majestic Lord of Star Spirits and the God of All Things is sleeping, he cannot know anything about the outside world, let alone being touched by someone's spiritual mark.
The Star Spirit Scroll couldn't help but be glad that it hadn't had time to tell Lan Zhi, otherwise it would have been doomed.
Just then I was thinking that Xing Zhi had already seen everything that happened to Lan Zhi after he left, and he said softly: "I really have to cry."
So, Xingzhi sent her the same reply: (┯_┯)
Lan Zhi did not have the habit of paying attention to the Star Spirit Scroll all the time, and there was no prompt from the Star Spirit Scroll. She had no idea that Xing Zhi had replied. After returning to Pinglan City by teleportation array, she found a remote location on the street and said:
"Come out."
A figure quietly appeared in front of her. It was the middle-aged female nun who helped her at night.
Lan Zhi was not too surprised.
She knew yesterday that this female nun was following them.
At first, she didn't know what the other party's purpose was, but she didn't feel any malice and was just secretly vigilant. Later, she found out that the other party was trying to protect Jin Yuman, so she left it alone. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so frightened that she fell into a sluggish state last night.
Jin Yuman was handed over to the other party to look at.
Now that the other party did not follow Jin Yuman but followed her, it was naturally impossible to protect her. Lan Zhi didn't like to talk in circles and asked directly: "Is something wrong?"
The middle-aged female cultivator introduced herself: "My name is Zhao Tong'an, and I am the secret guard assigned by the head of the Jin family to Miss Jin Yuman. I came here specifically to thank you for saving her last night."
Lan Zhi visually observed that she had the cultivation level of the Four Meridians, and he hit the nail on the head: "With your strength, you can save her even without me."
Zhao Tongan smiled bitterly and said: "That's what I said. I didn't expect that she would be pushed out suddenly. My first reaction was already too slow. Although I could save her, she would definitely be seriously injured. The most important thing is that you allowed her to grow up.
"
She paused for a moment and explained: "She is too simple-minded. The head of the family wants her to accept severe beatings from outside and grow up as soon as possible. He would rather watch her being bullied than let me help her. But she has been bullied for more than two years.
Without progress, we would have almost despaired."
Lan Zhi had no interest in commenting on other people's education methods and just listened quietly.
But then she took out a luxurious brocade box inlaid with gold and jade from her sleeve, held it with both hands, took a few steps forward and stretched it out in front of her, and solemnly said: "This is a thank you gift from the master of the family, please accept it."
Lan Zhi didn't answer: "I'm not helping her for you."
Zhao Tongan pleaded: "But you did protect her and solved our biggest problem in recent years. Please accept it, otherwise the head of the family will not feel at ease."
Lan Zhi understood.
Jin Yuman is simple-minded and only cares about whether people treat her well or not, but if the head of the Jin family wants to squeeze into the circle of aristocratic families, he certainly does not want to have too much contact with a poor family like her. If she accepts the thank-you gift, both parties will be in peace.
If she didn't accept it, he was worried that she would take the opportunity to cling to their family, so he would just prepare a bigger thank you gift until the favor was bought off.
Lan Zhi had no intention of getting too involved with the Jin family, but she also didn't want to accept the thank you gift. She thought for a moment and said, "These thank you gifts may not be useful to me. If you really want to thank me, why not give me some medicinal materials?"
"
Zhao Tongan said quickly: "Please tell me what medicinal materials."
