Master Fu does not envy immortals

Chapter 51
When the village head and Li Er disappeared, Jiang Qiongxing turned around triumphantly, and was about to claim credit, but met a pair of indifferent eyes.

Zhou Shengfan said, "At such a young age, you will put on the airs of a fairy and teach mortals a lesson. Is this the apprentice Shi Yueren taught?"

Jiang Qiongxing frowned and tilted his head—such a dog biting Lu Dongbin, he didn't know a good heart.

"If it weren't for me, your field would have been taken over by them," she reminded.

Zhou Shengfan remained silent, picked up the farm tools and continued to work.

Jiang Qiongxing didn't take it seriously, thought for a while and continued: "Besides, Uncle Shi is not actually my master. He refused to accept me. I unilaterally shouted that. Anyway, he has no way to jump out and refute me."

She is quite proud.

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Shengfan stopped and walked towards her: "Tell me, how did Shi Yueren die?"

How did you die?

The smile on Jiang Qiongxing's face gradually disappeared, and he said concisely: "He died to save me."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Zhou Shengfan smiled: "It's something he would do."

"Aren't you sorry for him?"

"What's so sad about this?" Zhou Shengfan looked down at her, "He didn't die to save you, but to die for the Tao in his heart. This is the best ending for a cultivator."

After a pause, he added with difficulty: "You don't have to blame yourself."

There is little comfort at first glance.

As expected of Shi Yueren's friend.

Jiang Qiongxing shrugged, turned and walked into the mountain.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Shengfan asked behind her.

"Let's go, don't you plan to teach me?" Jiang Qiongxing waved his hand, "I forgot to mention that I'm still being chased and killed. I just exposed my identity as a cultivator in front of those two people. The chased person may appear soon, so I have to leave quickly."

"You won't delete the memories of mortals?" Zhou Shengfan asked.

Jiang Qiongxing paused, then turned around in surprise: "Is there such a good way?"

"...You really don't understand anything."

Jiang Qiongxing was about to say that you taught me, when he suddenly realized something was wrong: "Forget it, forget it, if I delete their memory, they will definitely come to occupy your field again, let them remember it."

Zhou Shengfan was startled, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "Brother Shi wrote to me that you are just a miscellaneous spirit root, why do you want to cultivate immortality?"

"I have no choice but to protect myself." Jiang Qiongxing lowered his eyes, "I will never forget how painful it was when I had no power to resist the cultivator and could only pray for others to save me."

Even if it is a miscellaneous spirit root, she has to find a way.

Zhou Shengfan was silent, as if he was thinking about something.

Jiang Qiongxing looked up at him: "What, you changed your mind?"

Zhou Shengfan said: "The way I am now, I really can't teach you anything—how about this, I'll introduce you to another person, how about you go find him?"

Jiang Qiongxing let out a long sigh.

She felt like a ball being kicked around and nobody wanted it.

Really hurt my pride.

"He lives in the capital. He is the seventh young master of the Liang family, a family of immortal cultivators. Although he is young and his cultivation level is not high, what you have to learn is nothing more than common sense, and he will teach you enough." As if he didn't feel her complaints, Zhou Shengfan said to himself, "After you see him, just say that I asked you to find him, and he will give me some face."

Jiang Qiongxing said faintly: "When Uncle Shi told me, he was sure that you would give him face."

"Cough," Zhou Shengfan cleared his throat, "I am powerless, Brother Shi, he doesn't know that I have already destroyed my dantian."

"Okay, I'll think about it." Jiang Qiongxing stretched his waist and walked towards the capital.

……

When the sun was setting to the west, Jiang Qiongxing, who was dangling, finally strolled to the gate of the capital.

She stretched out her head and glanced at the gate guards vigilantly to see if there were any immortal cultivators lurking nearby, and after confirming that there were no, she walked to the back of the team entering the city with confidence.

What's next?
Jiang Qiongxing moved slowly with the team entering the city, secretly thinking about his small coffers.

She still has some bank notes and a few spirit beads in her hand. She can live comfortably for a lifetime as an ordinary mortal, but she is pitifully poor if she wants to become a cultivator.

But the booty Shi Yueren left her, oh no, there are a lot of messy low-level magic weapons in the inheritance. If she can find the pawn shop of the immortal cultivator, she should be able to make a small profit, but she has not yet figured out which way the door of the immortal cultivator world opens.

Or, why don't you go to that family of cultivators surnamed Liang?
I don't know when I will touch it by myself.

Thinking of this, she sighed heavily.

Why can the hero in the original book go wherever he wants, just like installing a navigation system, he will never get lost.

But her eyes were darkened, and she had to ask for directions wherever she went.

However, judging from the original plot, the immortal cultivating families in this world are generally not easy to mess with. Most of them will be equipped with arrogant concierges who look down on others. It’s getting late now, so it’s better to find a place to live first. Tomorrow, I will go to the medical lady sister who rescued her once outside the city, inquire about the reputation of the Liang family, and then make plans.

After making up her mind, she entered the city against the setting sun and walked to the nearest inn.

Probably it was almost the curfew, and there were very few passers-by in the city at this time, and it was a rare pleasure to cast long shadows on the wide bluestone streets.

There was a small sound of copper coins falling to the ground.

Jiang Qiongxing paused, followed the sound and lowered his head, saw a copper plate rolled to his feet, and lay down motionless.

Who dropped the money?

She looked in the direction where the copper plate was rolling, and found a gentle and handsome young man sitting in an inconspicuous corner by the side of the road. He was watching this side, met her gaze, and smiled at her.

In front of the young man was a small table with an upside-down cup on it.

Jiang Qiongxing couldn't figure out the other party's way for a while, bent down to pick up the copper plate, walked over and asked, "Is this the money you dropped?"

The young man confiscated it, and instead said: "Little brother, we are destined to meet each other. Judging by your face, you will have a windfall today. Why don't you gamble on it?"

Jiang Qiongxing wanted to laugh a little, put the copper plate on his table, and asked casually, "What are you betting on?"

"The easiest way is to bet on big or small." The young man picked up the cup that was turned upside down on the table, revealing three dice inside, "One tael for a time, if you lose, I will give you the tael of silver, and if you win, I will give you ten taels of silver!"

It sounds good. The probability of winning or losing is half and half. As long as you win once in ten times, you will not lose money. With such a probability, many people must be willing to give it a try.

It's a pity that Jiang Qiongxing has seen a lot of tricks like this in modern times, but she didn't expect to encounter them here. She dropped two words in a lack of interest: "No money."

Turn away.
