Fairy spare

Ruan Li looked at him with a calm expression.

Yu Shangnian smiled, swinging the fan in his hand unhurriedly, just waiting for Ruan Li's response.

After a while, Ruan Li smiled and nodded: "It's hard for the young master's family to spend so much money on me. It makes me feel a little bit sorry."

"I'm not a cold-blooded person. Making friends is my favorite thing!"

Ruan Li couldn't think of any reason to refuse being able to become friends with the young master of Huilin Garden. She didn't even care whether the other person was kind in nature or acted decently, because she didn't think she was an absolutely good person.

Friends, consistent rhythm is the key!

Besides, Ruan Li didn't think he knew more than Huilin Garden about Tiangui City, the entire human realm, or even the entire lower realm.

She may need to ask the other party for many things!

And she also believed that the young master of Huilin Garden was so proactive towards her, naturally because of her status as a genius of the Tiangui Sect, her unparalleled talent, and maybe even her status as a master!

There is a certain impurity between them, but it is fair.

As time goes by, it will only take time to see whether we can become truly good friends!
"That's great!" Yu Shangnian frowned: "It's an honor for me to be friends with someone like Fairy Ruan Li!"

"Young master, there is no need to be too modest, nor do you need to praise me too highly. I am just one of the many monks in this lower realm. I am just as dedicated to seeking the truth as others. There is no difference."

"What the fairy said is true. It's just that I didn't mean to flatter you, but I have always admired the fairy. Now that I'm lucky enough to see you, I can't control my joy, so I can't help but feel unhappy!"

Seeing that he was serious, Ruan Li didn't hesitate anymore and just smiled.

Then the conversation changed: "Then let me sign an IOU for you. I borrowed so many spiritual stones from you today, so I have to have a written IOU."

So-called brothers have to settle accounts clearly, let alone friends.

And the amount was so huge, Ruan Li didn't think his name was worth so much money.

Yu Shangnian raised his eyebrows, turned his wrist, and closed the folding fan with a 'swish' sound. Then there was a prepared IOU in his hand: "It's ready, Fairy will take a look."

Ruan Li reached out to take it and said casually: "Just call me A Li."

When Yu Shangnian heard this, the smile in his eyes became three points thicker.

Professional things are done by professional people, so they are watertight. This IOU is very formal and clear. Ruan Li can tell that it is correct with just one glance.

It's just that there is no clear repayment date.

This was obviously intentional by the other party. The other party would not make such a low-level mistake.

"So I can pay it back whenever I have money?" Ruan Li asked.

Yu Shangnian nodded: "Of course, I have always been very tolerant to my friends, especially people like Xian...like you, A Li, you have to spend most of your time practicing, so making money is not important to you. , so don’t worry, you can pay it back anytime, I won’t charge you interest!”

"Aren't you afraid that I won't pay you back?"

"It's fine if you don't pay it back. I don't care about millions of spiritual stones!"

"..."

Sure enough, poverty limited her imagination and she ignored millions of spiritual stones. How many people in this lower world could utter such wild words?

After signing and stamping his signature on it, Ruan Li still promised: "Don't worry, I will pay it back slowly, and I will definitely pay it back!"

Yu Shangnian smiled and said nothing, and kept the IOU.

And Ruan Li put the two treasures from the auction into the ring!
Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, Yu Shangnian suddenly said: "By the way, I'll give you something."

Ruan Li was startled, Yu Shangnian already had an extra treasure in his hand.

It was a long black and red whip, wrapped in circles around his palm, about two or three meters in length according to visual inspection.

But this long whip is no ordinary whip. The whip body is scaly, faintly glowing with green light, and has a steady stream of spiritual energy surging.

"This is?"

Ruan Li frowned and looked at Yu Shangnian in confusion.

Yu Shangnian responded calmly: "This is called the Divine Whip. It is made from the scales of two high-level monsters. The black scales are taken from the high-level red-tailed black snake, and the red scales are taken from the high-level slit lizard. This The longest whip can extend to about 20 meters, so it is of little use to ordinary people, but whipping it on a practitioner can weaken the spiritual power of the practitioner. Every time it is whipped, the spiritual power of the other person will be weakened by one point."

"If you use this whip as a rope to entangle a practitioner, it will not take long to remove all the spiritual power from the opponent. It is a treasure that is good at offense and defense. It is suitable for self-defense!"

"The adult red-tailed black snake has the ability to wrap its body around an enemy and drain the enemy's spiritual power. Does this whip inherit the power of the red-tailed black snake?" Ruan Li asked.

Yu Shangnian nodded.

"This is no different from a medium-grade magic weapon. Why don't you keep it for yourself?"

"Doesn't it look good for me to be a man holding a whip? Besides, I have many treasures. I gave this to you specially, so you have to accept it."

Ruan Li took it: "Thank you, I have something for you too!"

As he spoke, a spiritual elixir appeared in his hand.

The middle-grade elixir—Tian Yuan Dan!

Her current level four pill veins cannot be used to refine the Tianyuan Pill. This was given to her by Senior Brother Mo Bai. This pill was of great help in advancing to the realm of pill formation. She was originally giving it to herself when forming pills. I prepared it, so I have never been willing to give it to others.

As a result, Hezhu's power was too strong and it helped her successfully form the pill without even realizing it, so the Tianyuan Pill was no longer of any use to her.

"This pill is the Tianyuan Pill, a middle-grade spiritual pill. My senior brother gave it to me before. This pill can help you become more comfortable when forming pills in the future."

"Thank you, you're welcome!" Yu Shangnian accepted it without hesitation.

The two exchanged gifts, and the scene of this friendship between friends was surprisingly ceremonial.

After saying goodbye and leaving, Ruan Li suddenly stopped and turned around and asked, "What's your name?"

"Yu Shangnian!"

Ruan Li recited it silently, indicating that he had remembered it!
The whereabouts when leaving Huilin Garden were also extremely secretive, which added to Ruan Li's impression of Yu Shangnian. I wonder if he deliberately arranged it for himself, or if he treated all domestic guests in this way.

Because it can indeed save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Soon after Ruan Li left, the auction ended successfully. Yu Shangnian was walking through the inner courtyard when his subordinates came in a hurry.

"Young master, the master is very angry and wants to see you!"

Yu Shangnian raised his eyebrows: "Why are you angry?"

"I heard that the two treasures I saw today were snatched away. I guess I want to ask you for news about the other party." "It's not your first time here. Don't you understand the rules?" Yu Shangnian smiled helplessly and only raised his eyebrows. He raised his chin: "Lead the way!"

The lotus pond in the backyard is surrounded by stagnant water due to the season. Only koi can be seen swimming by from time to time, but not a lotus.

There was a pavilion in the pool, and someone was sitting in the pavilion. A few guards-looking followers were standing far away on the shore of the rockery, and no one came close.

Yu Shangnian came slowly, with a faint smile on his face. As he approached, he bowed his head and saluted: "I have met the fourth prince."

The Fourth Prince Shangguan Jing nodded slightly and winked at the other side.

When Yu Shangnian saw this, he looked over and saw another man in brocade clothes sitting on the stone pier outside the pavilion, turning his head away from him angrily.

Seeing this, the smile on Yu Shangnian's face deepened, but his tone was deliberately high: "Hey, Brother Guan, what's going on? Weren't you still in high spirits when you came today?"

The other party said nothing, but even the back of his head was feeling cold.

The fourth prince had no choice but to laugh and could only say: "Well, there is uncertainty in this auction, so I can't give you all the good things. Didn't you also get a good treasure later? "

Yu Shangnian asked knowingly: "Oh? It turns out that the treasure you were interested in was snatched away. That's understandable!"

"But what the fourth prince said is true. This is not the first time for Brother Guan to come here. Why would he lose his temper over such a thing?"

When Guan Zhiwen heard this, he turned around. His white, tender and round baby face was bulging with anger. His face was obviously full of coldness, but it still made people feel a little cute.

"Brother Yu, you must tell me the identity of the person from Yajian No. [-] today!" Guan Zhiwen said in a deep voice.

Yu Shangnian still smiled: "Stop making trouble, it's not like you don't understand the rules of Huilin Garden."

"Besides, what if I tell you? Who among these people who can enter the private room is not a superior being? Although Brother Guan is the young master of Yuanwang Villa, do you really think you can offend other people in the private room?"

Guan Zhiwen choked and blinked.

The fourth prince also smiled: "Okay, it's a pity to miss the treasure, but as a cultivator, Brother Guan should know that opportunities are determined by fate and cannot be forced!"

"What the fourth prince said is absolutely true!" Yu Shangnian agreed.

Guan Zhiwen's face turned red with anger after hearing this. He understood the truth, but he just couldn't swallow it!

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, this night of frost will come back one day, and then I will know who is against me!" Guan Zhiwen said at the end!
Yu Shangnian and the Fourth Prince could only look at each other, then shook their heads and laughed.

When Ruan Li returned to the inn, he was stopped by the innkeeper on the first floor.

"Little fairy, here is something for you."

Ruan Li was stunned: "Give it to me? Who?"

"It's the deacon of Heyun Palace. He came to see the little fairy an hour ago. When he saw that the fairy was not there, he left his things and left."

The shopkeeper said as he pulled out a fairly packaged package from the counter and handed it to Ruan Li.

Ruan Li was curious and immediately opened the package at the counter. Inside was a food box, and the faint fragrance could be smelled even before the lid was opened!

When she opened it, there were square pieces of exquisite pastry inside.

Taking out a piece, Ruan Li looked at it with surprise: "This is..."

She really didn't expect that Deacon Xianghai would give her a box of snacks, and the snacks were exquisitely shaped, something she had never seen before.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper was well-informed and recognized this thing: "Fairy, haven't you seen it before? This is a slippery cake. There is a place called Muye Town below Lin'an. This is a special snack there. Because of the craftsmanship, It’s special, this stuff is slippery in your mouth, as if it’s slipping on your tongue, so it’s called slippery cake!”

"I see." Ruan Li understood and carefully put away the snacks, only to find a note next to the box.

When I opened it, there was only one sentence written on it: This is a hometown snack made by my mother, for Fairy Ruan Li, wishing a happy new year!
Just looking at the words above, Ruan Li couldn't help but smile. He didn't expect that Deacon Xianghai, who seemed to be a man who went his own way and was involved in official duties every day, would actually think of giving her a New Year's gift.

This made Ruan Li sigh. Many people thought that it was just a quick glance in the sea of ​​people, and that one face might last forever.But some people will always take the initiative to enhance the relationship with each other. It may be a few days later, or it may be a few years later, or more than ten years later, but it is never too late, because it is still before they are forgotten.

Ruan Li felt that she would never forget this box of snacks.

She felt better because of this incident.

When I returned to the room, I asked the shopkeeper to boil a bucket of hot water and took a comfortable bath. My younger brother and sister happened to be back too!
"I've prepared a New Year's gift for you two!"

Ruan Li called the two of them to him and pretended to be mysterious.

Their eyes lit up, and Ruan Duo couldn't wait to say: "No wonder my sister didn't go shopping with us. It turns out she secretly bought us gifts!"

Ruan Ran also asked expectantly: "Sister, what kind of gift is it?"

Ruan Li smiled, opened the box in front of him, and pushed it in front of the two of them: "Slippery cake! Have you never seen it before? The folk snacks of Makino Town cannot be eaten outside!"

The original intention was to tease the two of them, but in the end, A'duo and A'ran did not show any disappointment, but instead widened their eyes in surprise.

"Slippery cake? Why such a strange name."

"It must be slippery. Sister, where did you buy it? I have never heard of this thing in Ling'an so many times!"

"It must be delicious, it smells delicious!"

"Thank you sister, we will both finish it!"

"Leave a few pieces for Liuli!"

Ruan Li was speechless and wanted to laugh: "You two..."

That's all, Ruan Li took a deep breath, took back the fragrant cake that Ruan Duo had just picked up, and put it back into the box: "This is a new year's gift, let's take it back and eat it with my parents and Liuli."

"My sister has other gifts for you!"

No longer showing off, Ruan Li waved his hand, and Ye Shuangbai appeared in front of Ruan Duo, while Ruan Duo was dumbfounded on the spot.

This reaction is much more direct than seeing the slippery cake. It is a feeling of being completely shocked!

Ruan Li smiled with satisfaction: "This sword is called Ye Shuangbai. It is a middle-grade magical sword. It comes from the Beixu Sword Sect. It used to be the sword of the elders of the sect, but now, it is yours. Got it!"

Ruan Duo looked at Ye Shuangbai and forgot to react for a moment. Ruan Li was not sure if he heard what he said.

After a long time, Ruan Duo slowly raised his head, with red eyes on his handsome face, trying hard to restrain the tears that were about to fall due to joy and emotion: "Sister...is this really for me?"

Ruan Li nodded: "Of course, you are the only sword cultivator in our family, and this sword belongs to you!"

Ruan Duo excitedly rushed forward and hugged Ruan Li, saying incoherently: "Thank you, sister, thank you, sister. I work as a nuisance for my sister. You are the best sister in the world..."

Ruan Ran on the side was originally moved and her eyes turned red, but she was amused by Ruan Duo's reaction and laughed out loud: "Be careful, don't hurt my sister!"
