, "Benefactor, no matter what, thank you so much this time. If it hadn't been for the help of my benefactor, I don't know if my mother would have survived to this day."
As she said that, thinking of the past days, Cui'er couldn't help but Wiped away tears.
Luo Dan couldn't bear it. He looked at the person in his heart and stretched out his hand to help him.
"You're welcome, it's you and me who are destined. As long as there are no problems with this elixir, your mother's illness will naturally get better."
"By the way, you can take these spiritual stones. , in case of emergency.”
Cui Er quickly declined.
"No, benefactor, we have already received enough benefits from you, how can we still accept this spiritual stone? You should take it back as soon as possible?"
Luo Dan did not accept it. , but insisted on placing it in Cui Er's palm.
“Have you ever heard of a saying, save people to the end, help people to the end, now that I have saved you, from a certain level, your life is mine, of course I hope you I live a long life, so there is no need to refuse.”
Seeing that Cui Er still found it difficult to accept, he added another sentence.
"I'm really sorry, just live a good life, and when you have hope in the future, just return it to me, or save the next person."
Cui'er's heart moved, and she couldn't help but raise her head and look at Luo Dan.
"Benefactor, you are really a righteous person. We, mother and daughter, are truly lucky to meet such a good person like you."
Luo Dan waved his hand, unwilling Accept such a high title.
“You’re welcome, I think it would be easy for someone else.”
But Cui Er's eyes dimmed for a moment.
“No, no one will help us, and the superior cultivators don’t look down on people like us. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be forced into this situation. If our benefactor hadn’t taken action, where would we have been? Have our safe day today "There is no need to belittle one's benefactor. We will definitely remember this kindness in our hearts."
Faced with this situation, Luo Dan felt helpless, but he knew that the situation at this moment was over. It cannot be easily reversed by him. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and finally chose to accept her etiquette.
He nodded slightly, with an imperceptible bitter smile on his face, and then said softly: "Since the matter is already like this, I have nothing to say. Since there is nothing else to disturb me, I will not disturb you anymore and go ahead. Resigned."
After saying that, Luo Dan turned around, although his steps were steady, his heart was in turmoil. He knew that this encounter was no accident, and there must be many unsolved mysteries behind it. However, at this moment, he could only put all this behind him temporarily, leave first, and then find a solution in the future.
Having finished reading the elixirs, Luo Dan seemed to have no reason to stay, and it was hard for Cui Er to persuade him to stay.
But watching the man leave and watching his back turn and walk away, she still felt a strong sense of reluctance for some reason. She couldn't hold it back and stopped him.
“Benefactor.”
Lodan stopped and looked back at her, with confusion written in his eyes.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”
Cui'er didn't know what to say, but in the end she muttered her request.
“Well, little lady, it’s already getting dark, and it’s almost time for dinner. Our benefactor has helped us so much, and we have nothing to repay our benefactor. I wonder if I can treat you to a meal. . ”
After speaking, her fingers tangled together uneasily, feeling very embarrassed.
The gentle woman knew that her family was poor and her walls were empty, so she could not entertain the distinguished guests with delicacies like the rich family. All she could provide was some home-cooked food. Although it was simple and plain, she did her best to prepare it. However, even though the food was simple, her thoughts were extremely sincere. She whispered to the young master: "This little girl is very poor and can't afford anything precious. She only has these simple meals to express her feelings. But please Don't dislike it, if you wish Please stay and enjoy a home-cooked meal as my gratitude to you."
She had already made up her mind. If this benefactor was willing to stay, she would go out immediately. Go to the market to buy some good ingredients and come back. They themselves are reluctant to eat or drink on weekdays, just to save a penny, but in front of their benefactor, they are willing to give everything they have just to make him feel the warmth of home. They knew that to this benefactor, these foods might not mean much, but this kindness was priceless.
"This..."
Lodan wanted to refuse, but looking at the hopeful expression on the woman in front of him, the words of refusal came to his lips, but he couldn't spit them out anyway, so he could only take back his original intention. , changed to another meaning.
"Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
After hearing this, Cui'er was so happy that she almost jumped out of her skin on the spot.
"Really? That's great. Mr. Luo is willing to show his favor. It's an honor for Cui'er. You, please sit down for a while, and the little lady will get ready."
As she said this, she was already in a hurry and a little at a loss.
Lodan began to feel an inexplicable regret in his heart. He was struggling with whether his previous decision would bring unnecessary trouble to others. However, just as he was hesitating, his eyes inadvertently caught the smile on the other person's face. That smile was like the rising sun, bright and warm, filled with happiness and gratitude. Facing such a smile, most of the doubts and uneasiness in Luo Dan's heart disappeared instantly.
He took a deep breath and prepared to sit down according to his previous decision. However, at this critical moment, he suddenly felt an inexplicable premonition, as if something was about to happen. His eyes darkened and became sharp and alert, as if he wanted to penetrate the surrounding air to explore the upcoming unknown.
No, it’s a noob.
He had telepathy with Xiaobai, and something happened to Xiaobai.
At this time, Luodan didn't care whether he was a guest or not, he got up and left.
"Miss Cui'er, if you still have any questions, please come back for an appointment another day."
After saying that, his body turned into a stream of light and disappeared in front of Cui'er.
"Master Luo!"
Tweety shouted, even just trying to care, but unfortunately, it was too late, and she couldn't keep up with his speed. Tweety was frightened and tightened her grip. He had taken off the clothes on his chest and looked strange.
"You just...don't have the time to say a word. Is there such a big gap between Mr. Luo and us?"
Her muttering was heard by her mother on the hospital bed, and she didn't know it. When I came over here, I sighed when I heard this.
"Alas..."
The mother walked over slowly and gently held Tweet's trembling shoulders. Her hands were warm and strong, trying to give Tweet a little comfort. Her eyes were full of concern and worry, as if she was telling Tweety a cruel fact.
"Tui'er, my good child, listen to your mother's advice." Her mother's voice was soft and firm, as if she was telling an undoubted truth, "Some people, from the moment they are born, We are in a completely different world, separated by a world. You and that benefactor, your worlds and your identities are so completely different. After all, there is an insurmountable gap between you. .”
After hearing this, Cui'er felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart. She lowered her head, pursed her lips tightly, and was speechless for a moment. However, her tears were like broken beads, sliding down drop by drop, wetting the skirt of her clothes. Those crystal tears seemed to be the endless sadness and helplessness in her heart, silently telling her pain and struggle.
"But Mr. Luo has obviously agreed to stay for a meal..."
The mother immediately interrupted her fantasy.
“It’s just a meal, it’s nothing. As long as the benefactor wants, he can have the same second or third meal. But with our conditions, it’s difficult to even entertain him, Cui Son, can’t you see clearly the distance between you and him?”
“Mom is not trying to hit you, I just hope you can see the truth clearly. You are my precious daughter. If you really don’t want to see it, Sorry for your injury.”
Cui Er cried even more sadly, seemingly pouring her tears in front of her mother.
“But mother, I really like him, even if he is a concubine.”
“That’s enough, Cui’er, mother won’t let you even if she risks her own life. When you are someone’s concubine, even if you are a concubine, your benefactor may not be willing to do so. You and he are originally from two different worlds. Why can’t you always see this clearly?”
一And the repeated persuasion made my mother a little tired.
She lowered her head, covered her chest and coughed a few times.
Cui Er was immediately worried.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Are you feeling well?"
"It doesn't matter. Thanks to the medicine given by my benefactor, I can't collapse for the time being. Cui'er, listen to my mother. If so, don’t do anything stupid.”
Although her mother’s physical condition was worrying, her face was as pale as paper, and her figure was so thin that she could be blown over by a gust of wind, she still persisted and used her weak strength. And the firm voice tried to persuade Tweety. Her words were full of love and expectations for Tweety, and although her voice was hoarse, it was full of power.
Cui'er listened quietly, without speaking, but glanced at the sick mother in front of her with her deep and complicated eyes. Her eyes were full of worry and gratitude for her mother, but also revealed a hint of helplessness and sadness. She looked around and saw that the walls of her home were empty and the simple furniture was neatly placed, but it could not hide the poverty of her family. All this made Cui Er's heart full of heaviness and depression.
In the end, Tweety lowered her head sadly, letting tears well up in her eyes. She understands her mother's painstaking efforts and her mother's expectations, but she also knows that her situation and identity are incompatible with that world. All this made Cui Er feel powerless and confused. She didn't know how to face the future, nor how to respond to her mother's expectations.
On the other side, Rodan was like a keen hound, closely pursuing that subtle connection, as if it was the compass in his heart, guiding him through the busy streets and through the intricate alley. His steps are firm and powerful, and every step is solid and powerful, as if he is declaring war on fate and unwilling to be bound by fate.
Finally, he came to the inn. Rodan stood at the door, filled with anticipation and nervousness.
Although he had repeatedly accelerated his speed, he was still a step too late when he arrived at the inn.
“Xiaobai!”
When he opened the door and shouted loudly, there was no familiar figure.
What made Luo Dan even more uneasy was that the inn was in a mess.
In Xiaobai's room, everything was messed up, the table fell over, and the stools fell over.
He found a glowing green pendant in the corner, his eyes moved, and he stepped forward to pick it up.
“This is Xiaobai’s favorite thing, and it fell here.”
After muttering something to himself, he frowned and looked worried. "What happened? There seemed to be a fight here?"
If it was a fight, who was the person who broke in wantonly?
Luo Dan closed his eyes and continued to sense Xiao Bai's position.
After a while, he opened his eyes, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.
No, unless it's a life-threatening situation, otherwise, the connection between him and Xiao Bai seems to have been cut off by something.
Who he is, even the connection between him and Xiaobai is known.
They can even arrange such means. It seems that they are people who know them well.
Lodan gently touched his chin and pondered this matter.
However, after thinking for a while, he had no clue, which made him feel annoyed.
"Damn it, I couldn't think of who it was for a while. Besides, the time is too short. We have to find Xiaobai immediately. If something happens to her."
The other party came towards Xiaobai, definitely They are enemies, not friends.
If it goes against Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai will be in jail while he is thinking.
There was not much time for him to think, he had to find clues quickly.
Luo Dan pursed his thin lips, suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and first searched vigorously in Xiao Bai's room, trying to find clues.
No, not here, not here.
After searching, I found nothing.
He no longer focused on it, and immediately turned around and left.
I plan to look outside the inn to see if there are any clues.
After going out, I found that after a big battle, almost everyone had run away.
The shopkeeper is not here, the waiter is not here, and the ordinary diners are not here either.
Lodan was a little depressed.
"Why is there no one there? He was scared away. Damn it. If there was one more person left, I guess he wouldn't be as silent as now?"
It seems that he only You can go out and see if there are any people who were in the store before, maybe you can ask something from those people.
Thinking about it, he was about to leave when a person suddenly came over in front of him.
"You're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I wanted to see you coming, but I was worried that that person would come back, so I just saw you."
A man rushed to him, his steps staggering, But he looked excited.
Lodan was wary of strangers and immediately avoided him before he rushed over.
The man didn't notice for a moment and fell down in front of Luo Dan.
It was nothing at all, but after climbing for a long time, he couldn't get up.
Luo Dan was surprised. After taking a closer look, he realized that the man had a wound on his head.
There was a hole in the back of his head.
Let me go, he can still hold on to such a serious injury until now.
"You, how could you be so seriously injured? Do you know something?"
Lodan didn't care about anything else, and immediately squatted down to support the man, while giving him He gathered the spiritual energy on the back of his head and fed him the elixir.
The man seemed to want to speak, but because of the injury, his lips pursed, and his face turned pale and he did not say a word for a long time.
Although Luodan was anxious, he could not act too hastily, so he had to treat people's injuries first.
"Forget it, stop talking now. If you are injured like this, don't burp in the next second. I will treat you now. You can relax and take care of yourself."
The man seemed eager to say something, but in the end he did as Rodan said.
After Luo Dan adjusted his breath, after a while, the man's face looked much better.
Luodan helped him to sit on a pillar beside him, so that he could lean on it.
"Would you like some water?"
The man couldn't say no, so he could only nod sheepishly.
Luo Dan didn’t feel embarrassed to take care of him in this way, so he got him some water to drink.
"Okay, you should have some strength now. Tell me what happened. Since you came here specifically to find me, you should know what I am looking for."
"Yeah."
The man nodded seriously.
"You must be here to see Miss Xiaobai. You two are together. Earlier, Prince Wang Wu came and wanted to take Xiaobai away. Xiaobai didn't want to, so Prince Wang planned to take her away by force. Let’s go, I’m ashamed to say that I wanted to help Xiao Bai when I saw injustice on the road, but unfortunately, the prince took Xiao Bai away without being threatened by my words.”
The man said. Here he sighed slightly.
"The thugs woke up later, and I was no match for them. Instead, my head was broken. I wanted to bandage it, but I was worried that you would miss it when you came back, so I waited outside for a while. Fortunately, You came back as soon as possible. Fortunately, I didn't miss you."
"So that's how it is..."
Lodan muttered to himself, feeling grateful to the man on the one hand, but also very angry on the other.
"Wang Wuyi, what kind of cat or dog dares to take away my people?"
I have to say that Wang Wuyi's behavior really angered him.
Xiaobai is a little fox he raised by himself, how could he give up to that kind of scum?
She had already had a grudge with him before, but now she dared to take Xiaobai away.
It’s just looking for death!
"Brother, thank you, and thank you for speaking up. There are some pills here, enough to heal your injuries, and there are some spiritual stones left. Consider it my gratitude to you. , I’m going to find Xiao Bai, thank you for providing clues.”
After finishing the matter here neatly, Luo Dan turned around and left.
The man looked at his back and silently said "Bon voyage."
Then, he opened the bag of tips that Luo Dan handed him and his eyes were stunned.
"This, this is actually the best spiritual stone and the best elixir. What is the origin of this Lordan? You actually have such a good thing in your hand?"
And, it's so casual. Taking it out as a gift makes the man feel even more incredible.
But men also know that because of one of their good intentions, they may have gotten lucky.
He took a look at it privately and immediately put the spirit stone away carefully.
This is a good thing. With him, maybe life will really turn around.
The man took a deep breath, quickly held it in his arms and walked away as if he had a guilty conscience.
On the other side, Luo Dan arrived at the Wang family in just a moment.
He walked directly towards the Wang family gate and was stopped as expected.
"Stop, who are you? You dare to step into Wang's house casually. Do you have a souvenir?"
"No!"
"Is there a post?"
"No!"
The impatience on the guard's face gradually increased, and contempt was revealed on his face.
"There is nothing, a country boy actually has the nerve to break into the palace, Gungun, do you really think this is a place where anyone can come? Get out of here, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!" ”
As he said that, the two guards were already working together to knock him away.
The tyranny of the palace is evident. (End of this chapter)
