who knows

It is reasonable to find a place to rest before it is too late. Although she doesn't care about the conditions of the residence, and Ying Xi doesn't mind sleeping in the open air if she wants to come, but after all, she has taught A Niang to raise her for so many years since she opened her eyes. It is always good to rest safely in a sheltered place from the wind and rain.

Passing through the overcrowded inn of the fifth family and told by the shopkeeper that there were no spare rooms, the two of them almost walked through the streets and alleys of most of Xindu, only to see an inn that was particularly quiet and out of place amidst the splendor.

There was a row of cars parked beside the inn, and the carts were pulled by powerful monsters. There was an obvious logo engraved on each carriage, and Zhong Liqing recognized that it was the unique emblem of the Royal Treasure Firm—look at this Lineup, they seem to have booked the entire inn.

Zhong Liqing thought about it for a while, and then took out something with her sleeves and handed it to the gatekeeper. It was the Qiankun bag given to him by the steward when he sold the talisman at the Imperial Treasure Firm, and it also had the logo of the Imperial Treasure Firm on it.

"Please, little brother, I'll talk to your manager about a deal." The young man guarding the door looked at the logo on the Qiankun bag, then touched it with his hand, as if to confirm the authenticity, and then turned to Zhongli Qing waved her hand and turned back to the inner courtyard.

After a while, the middle-aged steward who had dealt with Zhong Liqing walked out quickly, his eyes swept across Zhong Liqing and the horned bull car behind her, and a friendly smile appeared on his face: "So It's you, young master, you are welcome if you are far away, and you are welcome if you are far away! It is the old man who has neglected you, please."

He didn't mention Zhong Liqing's excuse to lure him into the business, but he warmly invited her to the hospital, and when Zhong Liqing looked at the car with a look of embarrassment, he ordered people to take the beast and the car to the backyard with great discernment. , turning a blind eye to the beautiful girl who followed closely after getting off the car, and took the initiative to lead the way.

Zhong Liqing was very satisfied with his knowledge, and saved a lot of explaining.

When she came here, she had already taken the Yi Rong Pill specially refined by Xi Yuyan for her, so she was not worried that this old man whose cultivation was only at the Golden Core stage would find her true appearance, but Ying Xi's appearance was still too eye-catching , even if he persuaded the girl to leave later, I'm afraid I have to think more about her.

Thinking of this, Zhong Liqing couldn't help sighing again when she realized that she treated her like a nanny.

After following the steward into a secluded room and dismissing the servant who poured tea, Zhong Liqing took a sip of the tea and explained why she came straight to the point: "I've taken the liberty to come to the steward and want to sell an imperial talisman. I wonder if the steward is interested in doing this business?"

The tallest talisman sold to this steward before was silver-level talismans. Although he valued it, he didn't take it too seriously. After all, although there were few silver talismans, they were not without them; Two gold-level talismans, but this Yukong talisman is also a very precious talisman among the gold-level. It is one of the high-level talismans that can only be refined by a talisman master who has reached the Yuanying stage. The average talisman genius has a success rate of less than [-]%.

Moreover, there are very few talisman masters who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, so gold-level talismans, especially this Yukong talisman, are particularly popular. Zhong Liqing also thought twice before taking out this one, not afraid that the other party would not take the bait.

Sure enough, just hearing what she said, before seeing the real thing, the smile on the steward's face became even bigger: "Oh, my surname is He, if fellow Taoists don't mind you, just call me Mr. He——" If you come to me, you can trust me, and I must accept your love. This Yukong Talisman is a good thing, just ask the price, you will not let you suffer."

"Mr. He is polite. To be honest, I came here because I had no other choice—seeing that tomorrow is the day when Shenyuan College recruits students. Unfortunately, I came in a hurry, and I haven't found a place to stay. So I came out. This is a bad idea, I want to use this Yukong Talisman to exchange two empty rooms from your bank, I wonder if Mr. He can do it conveniently?" Zhong Liqing pushed a Talisman with a faint golden halo towards the steward, and said with a smile.

Although this move has already broken the image of the son of a family that was deliberately created in front of the old man, but from time to time, the goal of her planning has changed, and the corresponding identity should also change.

Now she is nothing but a helpless and talented Donglin Loose Cultivator.

"Hey, what's the problem with me? If you can trust me, Mr. He, then you can live here with peace of mind. Although I'm just a manager, it's not a problem to spare one or two empty rooms for you. Yes - but this is just for the convenience of Daoyouxing in my personal capacity, as for the price of this Yukong Talisman..." The manager paused, looking at Zhong Liqing, as if waiting for her to speak.

"Since Mr. He regards Qin as a friend, what's the point of using this Yukong Talisman as a meeting gift from Qin?" Zhong Liqing clicked on the talisman, with a very sincere smile on her lips, "between friends , why bother...what does He Lao think?"

The steward was already moved, but he still pretended to shirk it, finally sent him away, but finally found a place to live.

——Tsk, such a dry and hypocritical "friend" is worth two spirit stones.

As soon as he left, Zhong Liqing withdrew the smile on her face, looked at Ying Xi who had been pretending to be deaf and dumb, but looked at her with a complicated expression: "Why, do you think I'm hypocritical?"

"Xi'er feels that when you are talking to him, it seems that for a moment, you can't feel your existence... Why do you force yourself to smile when your eyes are so cold?" Ying Xi held her chin and did not beat around the bush. Then ask out your thoughts.

"Yingxi, there are some things that if you don't understand, you will suffer a little bit. But if you understand, even though you won't fall into those low-level traps, you may not be happy. Instead of regretting in the future, it's better not to Understand - all you need to know is that I cannot help myself now, but it has nothing to do with you." Zhong Liqing knew that her words were hurtful, but she couldn't help but say that since she mentioned it, she would borrow it With this topic in mind, he spread the word out—after all, short-term pain is worse than long-term pain.

"Don't you want to cherish your son?" Ying Xi heard the alienation in Zhong Liqing's words, her little face was twisted into a ball, and regardless of the gratitude just now, she hurriedly grabbed her sleeve—do you still remember whether she The habit of pleasing to touch, did not grab her hand—— asked Xuanran, wanting to cry.

"You and I met by chance. It's only a matter of time before we part. You don't need to be sad. We will meet each other by fate." Zhong Liqing didn't know how to comfort others, and she didn't think there was anything to be sad about, although Ying Xi's expression made her feel as if she had committed a crime. What an unforgivable sin.

"Brother Qing, Xi'er wants to stay with you." Ying Xi wiped away the tears that could not be squeezed from the corners of her eyes, and said seriously.

——And this time limit, preferably forever.

She silently added this sentence in her heart.

"The purpose of my letter is to participate in the college assessment. When I am admitted to the college, I will leave here and join a sect... I have a big conspiracy and a very dangerous scheme. I can't protect myself, let alone take care of you—you leave, so We are all fine." Sighing, Zhong Liqing patiently explained.

"Xi'er won't hold you back, on the contrary, I can also be your help," Ying Xi said solemnly as if she had made a decision, "You know, I am a descendant of King Zombie, and I am a descendant of King Zombie. A candidate for the post of Zombie Lord, I can help you..." Just when Ying Xi couldn't help blurting out that she had recovered all her memory and most of her strength, she was stopped.

"Unfortunately, whether it's cultivation or revenge, that's the path I chose. No one can help me, and there's no shortcut—you're not allowed to intervene." Zhong Liqing's eyes sank, and she opened them again the next moment. , but only indifference remained.

After entangled for a long time, seeing that they couldn't make any sense, Ying Xi suddenly acted like a prank and said, "I don't care, I want to join the academy."

"Nonsense! Do you think you're going to play?" Glaring at her, Zhong Liqing felt a bit of a headache, and felt a sense of powerlessness like a child who has grown up and refused to be disciplined.

Seeing her anxious appearance, it seems that there is no good reason to throw her out to fend for herself. Ying Xi thought for a while and explained forcefully: "Because, because there are more fresh blood in the academy, and the food is plentiful. , It will also help me regain the strength of my prime."

"...It's up to you." Zhong Liqing frowned, but then felt relieved.

——I have no right to interfere with her decision. Anyway, this little girl doesn't have spiritual roots, so she shouldn't be picked.

But what I need to consider the most right now is the problem of spiritual root.

Whether a person has spiritual roots determines whether he can cultivate, and the level of this person's spiritual roots also determines the speed of his cultivation to a large extent, so judging a monk's qualifications, spiritual roots are the key-this is also true cultivation. common sense of the world.

Zhong Liqing would have been ridiculed by Zhong Li's family before. It was nothing more than the fact that the spirit stone could not test her spiritual root, let alone the level of the spiritual root. Practicing mortals.

Only the two closest to her know the mystery of this - Xi Yuyan, who was rescued by her, is barely half of them, but they only know that her spiritual root is special, and they don't know her real ability.

To be on the safe side, when Zhong Liqing dredged her meridians, she quietly engraved an inconspicuous little charm in her water system pulse, unless it was like her doing kung fu for Xi Yuyan again, using her own spiritual power to probe into her meridians , and a monk who has extensive experience and deep knowledge of talismans, otherwise he would never have discovered this hidden talisman.

And this spell has no effect on ordinary days, but as long as the caster activates the spell, it can instantly activate this spell—Zhong Liqing feels that Xi Yuyan doesn't seem like an ungrateful person, but the most unpredictable change in the world is people's hearts.

Having an extra backhand is also to make myself feel at ease.

——Trusting this luxury, she never dared to squander it easily.

The author has something to say: Ying Xi: I, want, bag, support, you.

Zhong Liqing: With all due respect, you may not be able to afford it.

Ying Xi: QAQ
