Chapter 22 Save some rations for the little milk leopard
There were people all around, and pairs of eyes that were either curious, suspicious, or disdainful were all focused on Jun Lan.
From time to time, low voices of discussion reached my ears.
"I have never heard that spiritual roots can be selectively retained."
"Don't tell me it's you, I haven't heard of it either. Although the idea is good, it's too ridiculous."
"Who says it's not the case? But what's going on with the fourth lady of the Bai family? She usually looks sober. Why is she so confused now? She actually believes such nonsense."
"She must have been seriously ill and sought medical treatment. Didn't you see just now that she was found to have dual spiritual roots of water and fire? With such two spiritual roots, she is destined not to do anything great in the future, and there is a high probability that she will become possessed.
No one wants to enter the sect."
"Yes, the Bai family is in a very difficult situation right now. This fourth Miss Bai is not going to take risks and fight hard."
...Sounds like this kept ringing.
When Jun Lan heard these voices, his heart suddenly moved.
As those people said, the current situation of the Bai family is indeed very difficult. Even if the Bai family can win the mining rights of the spirit mine this time, when the subsequent mining is actually started, the resistance will inevitably be visible to the naked eye.
It is the nature of all things in the world to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
The Wu family will never allow the Bai family, their number one enemy, to rise. Suppression and frame-up are necessary.
Most of the people in the world like to praise the superior and suppress the inferior. If the big tree of the Wu family beckons, the small aristocratic families in Yulu City will definitely follow the wind and run swarm to create trouble for the Bai family.
By then, the situation of the Bai family will only become more difficult.
But if the Bai family has someone who can change people's spiritual attributes, will they follow the Wu family and embarrass the Bai family again?
The answer is no, because I want something.
Thinking of this, Jun Lan's originally hesitant mind suddenly became firm.
She nodded slightly towards Bai Xuejian: "I will do my best."
It's not to slap Wu Bilian in the face.
To be honest, if a disabled person like Wu Bilian, whose brain has grown to the top of her toes, cares about her, Jun Lan feels that there is no need to lower her IQ.
Going all out is to live up to Bai Xuejian's trust in her, and also to change the current difficult situation of the Bai family.
Wu Bilian didn't know that she was defined as a disabled person by Jun Lan. Seeing that Jun Lan was really going to remove Bai Xuejian's spiritual roots in public, she just thought that the plan had succeeded. She was overjoyed and excited, and shouted to Jun Lan:
"Little girl, if you can really change Bai Xuejian from dual spiritual roots to single spiritual roots, I will make you a promise!"
Jun Lan: "..."
Is there such a good thing?
Jun Lan rolled his eyes slightly, raised a smile on his lips, and said happily: "Really? That's great. To be honest, Miss Wu Er, my family is poor, but I happen to have a gold swallower... Ahem, there is another one at home.
The noble son who is weak and unable to take care of himself must be raised."
The little leopard who forcibly formed a contract with her did not eat rice or meat, but only gold, silver, treasures and spiritual stones. How could she afford to raise such a gold-eating beast without a large amount of money to support it?
.
Wu Bilian promised her a promise, but promises were very vague. It was better for her to be more realistic and take this opportunity to save some food for the little leopard.
Thinking of this, Jun Lan said: "How about this, Miss Wu Er, let's make a bet on whether I can turn double spiritual roots into single spiritual roots."
Since it is a bet, there must be a prize.
Jun Lan said: "As for the lottery..."
She squinted her eyes and scanned Wu Bilian up and down, as if assessing Wu Bilian's strength, and then gave a number.
"We are all still young, and we probably don't have that much savings in our hands. We just have to express our feelings about lottery winnings, etc. Let's set it at 500 spiritual stones for the time being. What do you think, Miss Wu Er?"
Miss Wu Er: "..."
Not at all!
The pride on Miss Wu Er's face condensed, her smile was dull, her eyes stared straight at Jun Lan, and then she quickly lowered her head and asked the person next to her: "What did she just say? How many spiritual stones?"
He looked like he couldn't believe his ears.
There was an uproar in the square.
"Hey, five hundred spiritual stones, did I hear you right?!"
"She also said she was just saying it!"
"This girl came out of nowhere, and her tone is so loud!"
"Could it be that a new big family has arisen in Yulu City that we don't know about?!"
...Sounds like this kept coming and going.
The most indispensable thing for monks to practice is spiritual stones.
Therefore, spiritual stones are definitely in short supply in the world of cultivation.
For a lady like Wu Bilian who comes from a big family, she can receive a fixed amount of spiritual stones from her family every month.
One spiritual stone is given every two days, and the number of spiritual stones that can be received per month cannot exceed twenty, and no more.
Scarce materials that cannot be regenerated will be lost every time you use them, so they must be strictly controlled.
This is still the supply algorithm of big families. The children of small families with average strength, especially those casual cultivators in the mountains and fields who do not even have a family behind them, can grab more spiritual stones for their own use all year round than those in their hands.
The number of hands and feet combined is already huge!
Jun Lan said that he meant it, but when he opened his mouth, he got a prize of five hundred spiritual stones!
Such a quantity is out of reach for the vast majority of people in the square!
...How dare you say it out loud, and in such a light tone!
Wu Bilian listened to the retellings of the people around her and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her ears. She almost jumped up on the spot and asked Jun Lan if she knew what a spiritual stone was!
Five hundred pieces of spiritual stones, this is more than enough for her in two years!
The little bitch has such a big mouth, she’s not afraid of choking to death!
She immediately darkened her face before rudely sarcastically replying. When she raised her eyes, she saw Jun Lan rubbing her fingers continuously, biting her lips tightly with her teeth, and her face was full of tension and uneasiness. Wu Bilian's heart suddenly
As soon as she moved, the words of rejection that were already on her lips were swallowed back by her.
The expression on the little bitch opposite is clearly a sign of guilty conscience!
Yes, I feel guilty. It must be because I know I can't do it, but I still want to save face and refuse to admit that I am a clown trying to please others, so I deliberately offered a prize of 500 spiritual stones in order to scare her away!
...This was the opponent's trick of playing hard to get, and she almost fell for it!
As if to confirm Wu Bilian's suspicion, the expression on her face began to change, and Jun Lan immediately said: "Don't you dare, Miss Wu Er? Then forget it."
He took Bai Xue and was about to leave.
The anxious look with his left foot and right foot clearly demonstrated what "escaping a disaster" means.
Wu Bilian, who was still a little shaken in her heart, saw her like this, and her hesitant heart immediately stabilized like a rock.
