Poor girl is hated by everyone, villains drive her crazy
Chapter 227: Making New Friends
Before entering the Jinding Building, Yu Xi turned into an empty alley and called out to the empty shadows:
"Xinglan."
Soon, the shadow under her feet formed a ripple, and as a figure passed by, Xing Lan was already kneeling on one knee in front of her.
"Owner."
"Did Tonghui Bank find anything?"
"There are no cultivators among the internal staff of Tonghui Bank, all of them are ordinary people, but there are many cultivators going to the bank, including cultivators from the five major sects, and some small sects also go to Tonghui Bank to exchange spirit stones."
Xing Lan brought five people to monitor Tonghui Bank this time, and did not miss any problems from inside to outside: "But no cultivators had any contact with the people in the bank alone, and they all used normal channels to withdraw money, and there was no exchange of secret codes or other conversations."
Tonghui Money House is the largest money house in Huanghui City and is also ranked among the best in Daxia. It is normal for cultivators to go there to exchange spirit stones.
Yu Xi was a little disappointed, but still nodded and said, "I understand. Thank you for keeping an eye on it for me during this period of time."
Xing Lan noticed Yu Xi's disappointment and blamed herself for not completing the task Yu Xi assigned to her. She didn't say any more and wasted time. After responding, she turned around and disappeared into the shadows.
Yu Xi made sure that Xing Lan had left before he walked out of the alley and headed straight towards the Jinding Building.
The road was crowded, with vendors hawking and people walking around everywhere. Some parents, wearing plain, patched clothes, were carefully protecting their children, always worried that their children would not be lost in the crowd.
There were also some elderly ladies who were carried on the backs of young men or women, moving forward carefully step by step. It seemed that they were preparing to go to Jinding Building or Jishi Medical Clinic southwest of Jinding Building.
Compared to the crowded ground, the sky is much more spacious. Many cultivators can be seen flying on swords, and almost all of them go to the Jinding Tower.
"I want to cultivate immortality when I grow up!" A little girl walking beside Yu Xi tugged at her mother's clothes and said in a childish voice, "I want to fly in the sky with my mother."
Her mother touched her head and encouraged her, "My daughter is ambitious. I will take you to the Immortal Gate Conference. If you are noticed by the immortals, you can become an immortal!"
Yu Xi took two quick steps and soon arrived at the door of Jinding Building.
There is an invisible barrier blocking the door of Jinding Building, so crowded people cannot get close, so the flow of people at the door is much smaller, but you can still see quite a few people coming in and out.
The waiter who was waiting at the door to welcome guests was startled when he saw Yu Xi, then he looked behind her and asked worriedly, "Little girl, are you here alone? Where are your family members?"
"I came here alone." Yu Xi looked up, "Can't I go in alone?"
"It's not that we can't go in..."
The waiter was in a dilemma. He noticed that the little girl was not dressed normally and didn't dare to provoke her. However, there were gambling houses, lantern arrays, and monsters in their Jinding Building, so it was not safe for a child to come in.
While he was struggling to figure out how to express it tactfully, another waiter came out after greeting a customer. He saw Yu Xi at first sight and was so startled that he let out a strange cry and jumped high on the spot, scaring the guests passing by.
Without waiting for the people around him to react, he smiled flatteringly, stroked his hands, bowed, and welcomed warmly:
"Hey, isn't this the fairy? Please come in quickly, fairy. We have all kinds of rare things in the Jinding Building. I guarantee you will have a great time!"
Fairy?
Yu Xi twitched his lips, temporarily accepted the title, nodded, and followed the waiter.
Seeing this, another guy quickly whispered, "Are you crazy? Such a young child, and there is no adult around, if he gets into danger, who will be responsible?"
"Open your eyes and look! This is the man who killed several immortals this morning!"
"what?!"
The guy didn't speak loudly, but there were quite a few people around, so their words were instantly heard by everyone around them. All of a sudden, Yu Xi felt like he was the center of attention.
The guy's gaze at her changed from worry to admiration in the blink of an eye.
"So you are the kind-hearted man who eliminates evil and promotes good!"
Yu Xi raised his eyebrows and nodded coldly.
No, it was only this morning, how come what she did seemed to have spread all over the entire Huanghui City? !
Before the others gathered around, the waiter was afraid that others would disturb Yu Xi's interest in playing, so he quickly took her into the Jinding Building.
As soon as Yu Xi entered the door, the first thing he saw was a huge stone carved with a picture of all people. The stone had a strange shape and looked like a square stone wall, but if you looked at the edge, you would find that the edge of the stone had not been polished at all and was formed naturally.
"This is a gift from the immortals of Songshan Sect. It's a spiritual stone!"
While introducing the scene, the waiter took Yu Xi around the boulder. The view in front of them soon opened up. Although it was indoors, one could see green plants and flowing water. Vendors selling all kinds of food were neatly placed on the path beside the water. It was really pleasant to eat delicacies from all over the world while listening to the sound of trickling water.
After the waiter brought Yu Xi in, he stopped bothering her. He said a few auspicious words and quickly bowed and left.
Yu Xi had no interest in eating and drinking here. She wanted to go upstairs, but found that the stairs in the Jinding Building were on the opposite side of the entrance and she had to cross them to go upstairs.
She was walking through the crowd ignoring the vendors' shouting, but unexpectedly, a strange yet familiar figure passed by not far in front of her.
Lucheng?
Yu Xi instantly became alert with fear and subconsciously took a step forward, but there were too many people around her and she was short, so the figure she had just seen quickly disappeared from her sight, as if it had never appeared and she was just dazzled.
Lu Cheng was her junior fellow apprentice in her previous life, one year younger than her.
But the figure she just saw was clearly a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, which was the appearance of Lu Cheng in the previous life.
So, she must have recognized the wrong person.
Thinking of this, the discomfort in her heart dissipated a little.
Some people are so disgusting that just thinking about them makes people feel uncomfortable.
Just as she was about to move forward, she was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. Turning her head, she saw the girl dressed as a knight this morning.
She was stunned and was about to ask, but Zun Jin pointed at her feet and said, "You stepped on my penny."
"Ah, sorry."
Yu Xi quickly moved his feet away, Zun Jin waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, bent down to pick up the money on the ground, blew on it, and carefully put it into his sleeve pocket.
After collecting the money, Zun Jin greeted Yu Xi in a familiar manner and said, "We meet again. What a fate. Thank you for speaking up for me this morning. If it weren't for you, those monks would definitely attack me."
Yu Xi shook his head. “When I was about to be chopped by them, I saw you also wanted to rush over to stop them.”
Hearing this, Zun Jin's smile deepened, "My name is Zun Jin, what's yours?"
Yu Xi did not intend to reveal his real name, and only said softly:
"You can call me Murong."
