[System] Where is my vest?

The second task that Jiang Lan had been looking forward to came very suddenly and was completed very quickly.That was when Jiang Lan took Xia Yan out of the restaurant, Jiang Lan suddenly received a notification for the second mission.

In the short three months of getting to know Jiang Lan, Xia Yan has seen Jiang Lan's various excuses for eating out.

The cold is gone, let's go to the restaurant.

Jiang Huainan won the match with others, so he went to the restaurant.

Xia Yan successfully induced Qi into her body and went to the restaurant.

……

The most direct one was, "I heard that the restaurant has new dishes, let's go to the restaurant!"

Hearing the notification that the task was completed, Jiang Lan looked up at Xia Yan who ran back, thoughtfully.

The second task is to let Xia Yan help the beggars on the roadside and get gifts from the beggars.

"Miss!" Xia Yan ran in front of Jiang Lan, held the thing in his hand in front of his eyes, "I give it to you."

Jiang Lan took what was in Xia Yan's hand. It was a pendant in the shape of a white drop. Jiang Lan held the pendant and raised her hand to look at the light. There were tiny lines inside the translucent pendant. Jiang Lan narrowed her eyes. , that pattern is - snowflakes.

Jiang Lan glanced at the beggar with deep eyes in the distance, and asked the system in his mind: [What is this thing. ]

System: [One of the protagonist's golden fingers, its function is currently unknown. ]

I don't know who the "beggar" is, he probably just thought he was fooling the two children. Although his clothes are tattered, they are clean, his face is covered with dust, but the backs of his hands are clean.In short, this "beggar" is full of loopholes in the eyes of careful people.

Jiang Lan put the pendant on Xia Yan's neck, "Since it's for you, you can keep it. And I already have a necklace."

The bracelet from Xia Yan and the necklace from Jiang Huainan, Xia Yan has not taken it off since she put it on. As for the reason, the ornaments are small and delicate, and the knots are also very small. Jiang Lan hurt her nails, so she still didn’t take them off open.In addition, on the second day, Jiang Huainan and Xia Yan stared at his neck and his wrist, Jiang Lan was very glad that he didn't take these two things off.

The second time Jiang Lan saw that "beggar" was in her orchard.

"Miss." Daniu hugged Aunt Niu's ashes, and without further words, Jiang Lan understood what he meant.

Leaving home, falling leaves return to their roots.

"I found someone to take over the orchard from me."

Jiang Lan looked at the person she had just met a few days ago, and said to Daniel, "Okay."

Jiang Lan watched Daniel go away, and suddenly felt her hand being held, turned her head and saw Xia Yan looking at her sincerely: "Miss, I will always be by your side."

Jiang Lan looked at Xia Yan's serious expression, and burst out laughing, "There is no banquet in the world that lasts forever."

Xia Yan nodded: "Oh, the banquet is over, we can still go home together."

"What's your name?" Jiang Lan asked the man who had been standing quietly aside.

"Miss, just call me Wu Ming."

Jiang Lan restrained the twitching movement of the corner of her mouth, the name was fake at first sight.

[His bland face is also fake. ] The system fell on Jiang Lan's shoulders, [He is a cultivator and still has injuries on his body. ]

Jiang Lan frowned and was about to say something when the system touched Jiang Lan's face with its wings: [Calm down, your parents combined are no match for him. ]

Jiang Lan took a deep breath: "Wu Ming, right? My orchard has ditches to divert water, so you don't need to do the watering."

Wu Ming smiled: "Miss, these Niu brothers have already explained."

Jiang Lan looked at Wu Ming's smile and was inexplicably upset. This was probably because Wu Ming looked down on him because of his height.

"Let's go, Xia Yan."

Jiang Lan was halfway up the rope ladder when she suddenly turned her head to look at Xia Yan, "Aren't you going to the training ground?"

"I've drawn Qi into my body, it doesn't matter where I practice."

Jiang Lan: "Oh."

Sitting on the tree, Jiang Lan parted the branches and went down, just in time to meet the eyes of Xia Yan who was looking up at him, Jiang Lan raised her eyebrows and mouthed to him: "Don't, steal, be lazy."

Xia Yan touched his nose and began to punch under the tree.

[Wu Ming is looking at you. ]

Jiang Lan felt a little headache, [Tong, can you hide it from him? ]

[I can only isolate his spiritual sense from prying eyes, but if he can't perceive you, it is doubtful. ] People will have aura when they are alive, and those who have no aura are either cultivators who have a way to hide their aura, or they are dead.

[Wu Ming's goal seems to be Xia Yan. ]

[It’s not like, it’s definitely. ] Jiang Lan analyzed the system in her heart: [If his goal is at the Jiang family, he should come to me.System, do you think he has concealed his identity as a cultivator? ]

[No, but he concealed his cultivation. ]

[never mind. ] Jiang Lan leaned back, [Why do you think so much, let's have a look again. ]

Because of Wu Ming, Jiang Lan didn't practice. He leaned against the tree trunk and took a nap for a while. When he opened his eyes, he saw Wu Ming teaching Xia Yan's boxing techniques.

"Wu Ming, are you a cultivator?" Jiang Lan asked Wu Ming.

Wu Ming readily admitted.

"You are a cultivator, guarding my worthless garden, I really wronged you." Jiang Lan's expression was pure, and there was a sense of admiration for the cultivator in her tone.

"Miss doesn't have much work in this garden, and I just need a place to stay. After all, it should be the miss' loss."

In this way, Wu Ming stayed in Jiang Lan's orchard. Jiang Lan observed it for several days, but there was nothing unusual. If there was anything wrong, it was probably because Wu Ming taught Xia Yan to do his best.

And Xia Yan also gradually got close to Wu Ming, calling "Uncle Wu" one by one.

Jiang Lan asked Xia Yan how he felt about Wu Ming in private, and Xia Yan said this: "He is different from the instructor in the martial arts field. He didn't despise me because I am a waste spirit root."

Jiang Lan understood, no wonder he would rather practice alone in the orchard than go to the martial arts arena.Just like in the world before Jiang Lan, children were bullied at school and were unwilling to go to school.

But can one be nice to another for no reason?Jiang Lan also tried Wu Ming, but got the answer of "cherish talent".

It took Xia Yan a shorter time than Jiang Huainan from the time he had never been in contact with cultivation until he entered his body. However, after he induced Qi into his body, no matter how he practiced, his cultivation did not make any progress. The system said that this was because he did not have suitable exercises for the sake.

[How does Wu Ming know that Xia Yan is a talent? Is he the same as me? ]

[Impossible, there can only be one defender in a world. ] The system thought for a while and added: [However, an imperfect world will inevitably have loopholes, and it is also possible that there are traversers, but if Wu Ming is really an outsider, I can find out. ]

[So I said——] Jiang Lan's face suddenly darkened, [His "cherishing talent" is actually bullying me that I can't practice, I don't know how to practice, think I'm stupid, right? ]

Just when Jiang Lan was in a daze, a big hand covered his head.

Jiang Lan looked up: "Huh?"

Wu Ming rubbed Jiang Lan's head: "Miss, I will not hurt Xia Yan."

Jiang Lan: Tsk, I'm even more upset (`Δ)!
