Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

The Little Medical Fairy gritted her teeth, angrily pulled Qing Lin's other hand, and glanced at Xiao Yan unhappily.

"That's it. This way I won't be worried about getting lost, and you don't have to worry about gender differences."

Only then did Xiao Yixian react. She was not so resistant to Xiao Yan holding Qing Lin's hand. On the contrary, he only had a sense of gender difference for himself.

Well, it seems that at least he treats me as a girl of the same age.

Really, think about it carefully, if Xiao Yan's attitude towards me is the same as his attitude towards Qing Lin, then there would be a big problem.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yixiang felt a little better.

But with Xiao Yan holding Qing Lin's hand like this and Qing Lin's other hand holding his, it felt like a young couple taking their child out shopping.

When this idea suddenly popped up in Xiao Yixian's mind, her face turned slightly red. Xiao Yan and Qing Lin looked at Xiao Yixian's constantly changing expression, and then they both stared at each other, both seeing the doubt in each other's eyes.

What happened to the little medical fairy?

Since they first met, Xiao Yan felt that Xiao Yixian's mood was quite changeable, and it seems that she hasn't changed at all now.

Anyway, the three of them started strolling around the market hand in hand. Although the person who proposed to come here was Yao Chen, Yao Chen didn't think he would be lucky enough to find what he wanted here. He just stayed in the ring quietly observing the outside world. If he came across something, he would ask Xiao Yan to buy it.

And there is also the problem of Little Medical Fairy. Although Little Medical Fairy is no longer in danger of life with the help of the Ziyun Amethyst Seal, the poison still remains in her body. Sooner or later, Little Medical Fairy will have to digest it completely before the problem can be completely solved. Xiao Yan doesn't know much about the medicinal materials needed in this regard, so he secretly asks Yao Chen to pay attention to it.

(By the way, Xiao Yanzi, how much money do you have on you?)

Yao Chen suddenly asked this very important question in his heart. Xiao Yan paused for a moment and responded with some embarrassment.

(There should be tens of thousands of gold coins left, right?)

(.Do you think it’s enough?)

Yao Chen was speechless. It was simply a dream to use these tens of thousands of gold coins to buy medicinal materials, unless you wanted to buy them for free.

It seems that before buying things, Xiao Yan has to find a way to make money first.

Indeed, considering how much Nalan Jie values ​​Xiao Yan, as long as Xiao Yan asks, Nalan Jie will definitely do his best to provide financial support to Xiao Yan.

It’s a pity that I, as a disciple, can’t say this.

Regardless of whether it violated Xiao Yan's inner insistence, what kind of thing was it to ask his future father-in-law for money for something he wanted? And it was not certain whether the other party was his future father-in-law.

In desperation, Yao Chen made a suggestion to Xiao Yan.

(Didn’t you refine some third-grade medicinal pills before? Put them all out for sale. There are more than twenty pills in total. They should be able to sell for two or three hundred thousand.)

Although this amount of money is obviously not enough, at least I can save some money. At worst I can just buy some precious ones and worry about the rest of the herbs later.

(Um.)

Xiao Yan responded softly in his heart, and then pulled Qing Lin and Xiao Yixian to a remote and deserted corner under their puzzled gazes. He took out the third-grade pills he had refined before from his storage ring and placed them on the table one by one.

Seeing Xiao Yan's move, Little Medical Fairy immediately understood what he wanted to do, frowned slightly, and spoke.

"Xiao Yan, do you have no money? How about I lend you some first? I still have more than one million."

Although Xiao Yixian said so, let alone borrowing, even if she gave all the more than one million gold coins to Xiao Yan, Xiao Yixian would not feel the slightest bit of pain. After all, most of this money was taken from the cave in the World of Warcraft Mountain Range. Xiao Yan gave it all to her without keeping any. She should have received half of it, and Xiao Yan suffered so much to save her. How could a mere fortune compare to that?

But Xiao Yixian knew very well what kind of person Xiao Yan was. Even if she offered to lend it to him, he might not accept it, let alone give it to him directly.

If he dared to accept the money, he would not be Xiao Yan.

"No need, the money should be enough if we sell these pills."

Sure enough, just as Xiao Yixian had thought, Xiao Yan chuckled and waved his hand to refuse.

If he really had to need a large sum of money, for example, if he came across extremely precious medicinal herbs that Little Medical Fairy really needed, then Xiao Yan would definitely not be so stubborn. Even if he had to borrow money from the Nalan family, Xiao Yan would still buy the herbs.

But since it hasn't come to that point yet, Xiao Yan wants to rely on himself as much as possible.

But he had to rely on himself. Listening to the noisy hawking sounds next to him, Xiao Yan wanted to speak several times, but he didn't know what to say.

It’s true that I often bargained with vendors when buying things before, but this was the first time I actually sold something out, and it was a completely different matter.

Seeing Xiao Yan's embarrassed look, Xiao Yixian couldn't help but smile and reached out to pat Xiao Yan's shoulder.

"I'll help you sell it, is that okay?"

"Okay."

Xiao Yan stood there awkwardly, then nodded slightly and explained to Little Medical Fairy what kinds of elixirs were sold in the bottles of elixirs in front of him and their expected prices.

After memorizing them one by one, the Little Medical Fairy placed one hand to her mouth and coughed twice. Then she waved her jade hand and began to sell them very skillfully.

"Attention, guests! Third-grade elixir! A must-have for everyone at home, traveling or going out! It can definitely save your life at a critical moment! Good quality and low price, no cheating! Ten times the price if it's fake, buy three get one free! Big sale! First come first served, no waiting after the expiration date!"

It must be said that Little Medical Fairy really was worthy of coming from a pharmacy. She was so skilled in hawking her wares in a loud and clear voice, without any shyness at all, which made Xiao Yan sigh.

It's true that everyone has their own strengths. Just looking at the Little Medical Fairy's hawking voice, I'm afraid I'll never be able to learn it no matter how long I practice.

And in this huge market, such a pleasant and melodious chant suddenly emerged from the rough voices of a group of rough old men. Everyone could not help but turn their eyes to take a few more glances. And when they saw that the one selling the elixir was a delicate little girl like Xiao Yixiang, they became even more interested. They all gathered around, and in the blink of an eye, the place was packed with people.

"Come on, come on, everyone. Which kind of elixir do you need? A vitality-restoring elixir? Or a blood-restoring elixir?"

"Quality? There is absolutely no problem with the quality! Excellent!"

“Hey hey hey! The one over there! Don’t touch anything unless you want to buy it!”

"You want three Qi-restoring pills, right? All right! Three Qi-restoring pills plus one for free, thank you 60,000 gold coins!"

"Sixty thousand is too expensive? No, no, no, my dear guest, you don't know that this is the highest quality product that my husband has painstakingly refined with all his heart and blood! Sixty thousand dollars is not enough to cover the blood he vomited!"

"Well, fifty thousand is the lowest price! This is already the cost price! If you like it, I'll install it for you. If not, you can go to another store to have a look."

"Okay! I have packed 50,000 gold coins, three Qi-recovery pills and one Qi-recovery pill for free for you! Please take care~"

Seeing how Xiao Yixian was able to respond to all the questions from the guests in an orderly manner, Xiao Yan and Qing Lin wanted to help, but they didn't know how, so they could only stand there and watch Xiao Yixian's personal show stupidly.

This really can be said to be a kind of talent.

Chapter 230 Gratitude and Conscience

Ten minutes later, all the pills on the table had been sold out. Little Medical Fairy tossed the storage ring in her hand and looked at Xiao Yan triumphantly.

"Done~320,000 in total."

"Xiao Yixian, thank you." Xiao Yan's eyes showed deep admiration, and he said in a serious voice: "This money..."

"Stop! I don't need any money. I don't need you to share it with me."

Before Xiao Yan could say anything, the little medical fairy raised his hand to stop him from speaking.

"I just helped a little as a friend. You can't be so petty about such a thing, right?"

"But."

Xiao Yan frowned slightly at Xiao Yixian's words. Although he had made the elixir himself, if it weren't for Xiao Yixian, there was no way he could have sold it so well with his hawking skills. According to Xiao Yan's estimation, if he were to sell it himself, it would take a long time and he probably wouldn't be able to sell it for more than 320,000.

"Xiao Yan." Xiao Yixian interrupted Xiao Yan again, staring at him closely, "You saved my life. If you hadn't risked your life to save me several times, I would have gone to accompany Boss Yao."

Xiao Yixian handed the storage ring in her hand to Xiao Yan, and Zheng Sheng asked back.

"Or do you think my life is not worth this little money?"

Xiao Yixian was well aware of Xiao Yan’s stubbornness, and to deal with such a stubborn person, one had to follow his ideas.

If you don't respond, then my life is not worth this much in your heart.

This is actually another form of moral kidnapping, and it only works on people like Xiao Yan. In other words, it can only work on people like Xiao Yan. If it were anyone else, they would have accepted the money long ago, and there wouldn't be so many excuses.

"Xiao Yan, you have been devoting yourself to me so far. I have received so much kindness from you, so I naturally want to dedicate something to you as well."

"But how much can I give you?"

"In terms of fighting, I can't help you, and I'm a burden to you, but at least I hope I can help you with this kind of thing and repay some of your kindness to me, even if it's just a little."

"For me, helping you is what I should do, just like you helping me."

Looking at the sincere eyes of the little medical fairy, Xiao Yan was stunned for a long time.

After a while, Xiao Yan reached out and took the ring, a helpless smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"I see."

Xiao Yan looked quietly at the storage ring in his hand, his expression somewhat dazed.

I have always believed that if someone helps me, I should repay their kindness.

But I never thought about how others would repay me for helping me.

Because in Xiao Yan's understanding, helping others should be based on one's heart rather than interests. Xiao Yan does not want to lend a helping hand just for the sake of reward.

However, only now did Xiao Yan suddenly react.

If you do a favor to others and they are unable to repay you, would that person feel guilty just like you do?

Maybe, maybe not.

Xiao Yan would not feel resentful towards those who did not feel guilty.

Because it is your own decision to help the other person, and you have no right to ask the other person to repay your kindness.

But it is obvious that Xiao Yixiang is the kind of person who would feel guilty because he has received a favor but cannot repay it.

From another perspective, refusing the kindness shown by such people is also invisibly hurting the other person.

In this case, what is the difference between the favor I give and the invisible blade?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's eyes revealed a hint of relief and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

There are still many mistakes I need to correct.

Xiao Yan looked at Little Medical Fairy, with deep tenderness in his eyes, and called softly.

"Xiao Yixian, thank you."

"Huh?" Hearing Xiao Yan's thanks, Xiao Yixian showed dissatisfaction on her face, "I told you not to thank me, I just helped you a little."

In response to Little Medical Fairy's response, Xiao Yan shook his head slightly.

"No." Xiao Yan responded softly, "I thank you not because of the sale of the elixir, but for something else that is more important to me."

Looking at Xiao Yixian's puzzled expression, Xiao Yan smiled softly, did not explain, put away the ring, and said softly.

"Let's go~ Let's continue to see if there are any good things~"

Looking at Xiao Yan who took Qing Lin's hand and slowly walked away, Xiao Yixian stood there in a daze, and after a while she muttered something unhappily.

"What is this guy talking about? He's so mysterious."

Then Xiao Yixian hurriedly followed, took Qinglin's other hand, and toured the market with the two of them.

After a round of stroll, Xiao Yan also gained a lot. Not only did he collect most of the medicinal herbs for his future practice, he also found several herbs to help Xiao Yixian control the poison in her body.

As expected, it is a gathering specially held for alchemists, there are so many good things.

However, what replaced it was the 320,000 gold coins that Xiao Yan had just earned from selling pills. In the blink of an eye, only less than 30,000 were left, which made Xiao Yan sigh.

Refining medicine is a really expensive business. You can't afford it without some financial resources.

As for Xiao Yan's deep feelings, Yao Chen in the ring also felt helpless.

There was no other way, she really had no money. If she had any money, she would give it all to Xiao Yan.

Although there are many rare treasures and high-level fighting skills in the ring, Yao Chen cannot take them out and ask Xiao Yan to sell them.

It’s not that Yao Chen is stingy. After all, Yao Chen is willing to sacrifice his own life for Xiao Yan. Why should he be so vain about these mere material possessions?

But even if Yao Chen took it out, not to mention whether Xiao Yan, who was stubborn, would accept it, the things in his ring would still attract envy in this small Jia Ma Empire. If someone targeted him, Xiao Yan might be in danger of death. Yao Chen knew the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure very well after being on the mainland for so long.

The greed in the human heart is far more terrible than one can imagine.

"Well, that should be all."

After walking around for a few rounds, Xiao Yan really didn't see anything worth buying at this stage, and glanced sideways at Xiao Yixian.

"It looks like there's nothing else to ask for. Let's go."

"Ah."

Xiao Yixian nodded slightly. She and Qing Lin had come here to accompany Xiao Yan for a stroll. Now that Xiao Yan had nothing to buy, there was naturally no reason for the two of them to stay here any longer.

Just as Xiao Yan and the other two were preparing to leave the market, Xiao Yan's eyebrows suddenly raised and his eyes looked towards a stall. There was a bunch of junk-looking things on the stall, but the contents of a bottle in the middle caught Xiao Yan's attention.

The enchanting blooming pink flame looked very eye-catching and gorgeous, which aroused Xiao Yan's curiosity, and he asked Yao Chen a question in his heart.

(Senior Yao, is that a strange fire?)
