Master Fu does not envy immortals

Chapter 31
late at night.

There is no one in the wilderness, and everything is silent.

Shi Yueren shook off the blood on the sword, and put the sword back into its sheath.

At his feet, two figures lay sprawled on the ground.

The moonlight illuminates their faces.

One with bumps and holes on one face, and one with slender eyes like slits, it was the two cultivators who had just been scared away.

Shi Yueren took the storage ring off their fingers very skillfully, flipped through it, but found nothing useful.

I don't know how they discovered Jiang Qiongxing.

Just as he was about to dispose of the corpse, he looked up at the sky: "Forget it, just hang it here, their people must know about it soon, and they will naturally come to collect the corpse."

Shi Yueren, who found an excuse to be arrogant and lazy, put the storage ring in his arms, stepped on the flying sword, and flew towards Ningcheng.

The next morning.

A carriage drove up from the other side of the road.

Seeing the corpse lying on the side of the road, the coachman gradually slowed down and said something to the carriage.

The curtain of the carriage lifted a corner first, and the people inside saw the appearance of the corpse, and screamed: "Quick, stop!"

The coachman reined in quickly.

Before she could stop, Aunt Yue Ji crawled out of the carriage, threw herself in front of the lame and squint-eyed corpses, and tested their breathing with shaking hands.

It's over, it's over.

She sat crookedly on the ground, staring blankly at the two corpses in front of her, not knowing why things turned out like this.

These are two immortals!

How come so soon...

A small figure of Jiang Qiongxing emerged in her mind, and the seemingly harmless body distorted and swelled in her fantasy, spreading into a huge ghostly shadow, which was frightening.

Aunt Yue Ji, who was terrified, pulled out the talisman paper that the adult gave her without hesitation, and tore it open.

The talisman paper that was torn in two gave off a faint gleam, and a gloomy and smooth voice like a cold-blooded animal came from inside: "What's the matter?"

Aunt Yue Ji stammered and reported to each other that the two cultivators failed to track the target and were instead killed.

After the report was over, the other end didn't say a word, which made her wonder if there was something wrong with the talisman paper.

After a long time, the adult said coldly: "I understand, you don't need to worry about this matter, go back."

Aunt Yue Ji, who thought she would be blamed, was stunned for a moment, and asked, "The bodies of these two..."

"I will send someone to clean it up." After a pause, he said again, "Although this matter did not succeed, you have worked hard, and it will be beneficial to stick the talisman paper I gave you on your chest."

Aunt Rose secretly rejoiced—she has been working hard for immortal cultivators, isn't it for the benefits that these mortals can't give?

She pasted the talisman on her heart without thinking, closed her eyes and waited for the fairy's reward.

What will it be?
Is it all gone?Rejuvenation?still……

Huge pain spread from her heart, Aunt Yue Ji lowered her head in disbelief, and wanted to open her mouth, but she couldn't make a sound.

The coachman waiting at the side watched helplessly as she was enveloped in a huge ball of flames, burning her body to nothing in an instant. The flame that was as tall as a person disappeared out of thin air after burning out, not even affecting the blades of grass on the ground.

The coachman slumped to the ground with his mouth wide open, gasping for breath in fright, dark marks spread across his crotch, and he couldn't stand up for a long time.

the other side.

The palm talisman was burned out, and the voice of the man sitting in the dark was full of murderous intent: "I must catch this girl and eat her alive, so as not to ruin the lives of those two disciples in vain."

"Master, let's go."

There was a sound at his feet.

"No," the man wiped the paper ashes from his palm, "It seems that this girl has experts around her, so she can't act rashly, let me think of an idea to kill someone with a knife..."

He rested his chin, thoughtful.

……

It was just dawn in the early morning, and outside the city gate of Ningcheng, there was already a long queue of people entering the city.

Jiang Qiongxing mixed in the team, quietly looking at the strangers around.

There are no ragged refugees here, even the poor ones are clean and tidy.

While waiting for the city gate to open, the people in line were chatting in twos and threes. They were talking about things that had gone up in price, and how the elderly and children were doing. There was a sense of tranquility.

Jiang Qiongxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that food should be available here.

When the time came, Ning Cheng's gate slowly opened, and everyone rushed in.

Once in the city, Jiang Qiongxing went straight to the grain shop.

"Boss, what is the price of rice today?"

The boss was greeting other customers, so he took the time to point to the price list pasted at the door for her to read by herself.

The shy Jiang Qiongxing raised his neck.

That's great, although the price here has risen a bit, it is still within her tolerance range, and the money in her hand is enough to buy several cars!
These grains must allow more people to survive the difficulties.

The boss sent the last customer away, and walked out with his hands: "What do you want to buy, little brother?"

"Rice, noodles, whatever can fill my stomach, I want to buy a lot, can it be cheaper?" Jiang Qiongxing asked.

The boss looked at her hesitantly, unable to guess how much money such a big kid could have in his mouth, so he asked, "How much money did you bring?"

Jiang Qiongxing counted the bank notes on his body and gave a conservative figure: "1000 taels?"

Although this amount of money can't be exchanged for a few spirit beads, in the eyes of ordinary people, it should be considered a lot.

Indeed a lot.

The boss changed his face slightly when he heard this, and looked around: "Where are your family members? How can you let a child with so much money?"

"My family asked me to buy it." Jiang Qiongxing said without batting an eye.

The boss straightened up and shook his head: "I can't sell that much."

"Ah?" Jiang Qiongxing didn't think that money was not enough, thinking that maybe this product is not enough, so he made the next best thing, "Then I can buy a few hundred taels."

It's a big deal to run two more.

The boss still shook his head: "It can't be sold, one person can only buy five liters of rice, is there too much?"

five liters?

This is too little.

She thought of the mighty army of refugees. Taking this little rice back might not only fail to alleviate the situation, but would cause bloodshed instead.

Unexpectedly, it would be so hard to do a good deed. She stood blankly at the door of the grain shop, weak, pitiful, and helpless.

"Then do you want more?" the boss asked.

Jiang Qiongxing bowed his head and made up his mind.

One store bought five liters, even if she ran all the grain stores in the city, she couldn't buy much.

"Can't you buy more? Even if the price is higher." Jiang Qiongxing asked unwillingly.

"It can't be sold, because of the recent drought in the west, food from many places has been transferred to help the victims, and we don't have much food on the market." The boss said.

"Relieve the victims?" Jiang Qiongxing frowned as he recalled the team of refugees who couldn't see the beginning and the end.

If so much food was transferred to the disaster area to rescue people, why did they move their families and risk starving to death on the way?

But it's no use talking to a grain store owner.

She sighed softly and lowered her eyes: "Thank you, I'll go and ask elsewhere."
