Chapter 537 Montenegro Everyone returned to You's house, and Changnian was still wondering why their benefactor came back so early. Then he looked at the three people who looked like beggars following behind him, and he understood a little bit more. Jiang Wen asked him to boil some hot water, and took out three sets of clothes from the storage bag. When the water boiled, I let the three of them take a bath. I also took some food and put it down, waiting for the mother and her two children to fill their stomachs after they washed. "You are such a kind man, benefactor." Changnian put the food on the table and praised Jiang Wen. Jiang Wen just smiled and said nothing. In the living room, when the mother and her two children finished washing and put on the clothes that Jiang Wen had prepared for them, Jiang Wen discovered that the boy named Li Qingran was actually a girl. "Greetings, sir." Li Qingran bowed respectfully to Jiang Wen. Perhaps because she had been hungry for too long, her face, which should have been round, was a little shriveled. But her eyes were as bright as pearls, and her facial features were just right. As the saying goes, one more point would be too much, and one less point would be inadequate. I can definitely feel that when she grows up, she will be a stunning beauty.
Li Qingran found that Jiang Wen was staring at her. She felt a little uncomfortable and embarrassed, looking around to see if she had her clothes on backwards or something. "Master... why are you looking at me like that?" Li Qingran asked courageously. "How could you be a girl?" Jiang Wen said disappointedly. "...Master, do you think you don't like women?" Li Qingran was a little panicked and didn't know what to do after hearing Jiang Wen's words. "Not really. I just thought you were a boy, but I didn't expect you to be a girl. I didn't expect that I could be wrong sometimes." Jiang Wen sighed. He didn't use his spiritual sense just now, and didn't pay much attention to the boy's gender, so he was fooled by her. When Li Qingran heard Jiang Wen's words, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and his heart slowly calmed down. I thought the master didn't like women, but I didn't expect that the master was lamenting that he had made a mistake. She weighed it in her mind, and then said to Jiang Wen respectfully: "I was just afraid of accidents on the road, so I pretended to be a boy, and I never wanted to hide it from you, Master." "It doesn't matter. Let's talk about your mother first." Jiang Wen looked at her mother and brother. The younger brother was hiding beside his mother in a somewhat spirited manner, looking at Jiang Wen timidly. The woman stood dignifiedly beside him, showing the demeanor of a rich girl. She had a charming face and gentle eyes. She was probably stronger after eating the porridge, and she looked much better than before. They were two completely different people. Such a beautiful woman is rare in the world today. It's no problem for her to be a star. When the woman saw Jiang Wen, she bowed to him respectfully. She said in a gentle voice, "Thank you for saving my life just now. I, Zhang, am very grateful. We mother and son have no way to repay you. Please buy us as well." "Mom! How can this be possible! I want to be an official in the future. How can you let me sell myself?" When Li Qingran heard Zhang's words, he hurriedly spoke out to stop her. She was willing to sell herself not only to provide financial support for her mother, but also because she was a girl and could not enter the official career. As the only man in the family, I will also shoulder the responsibility of revitalizing the family in the future. How can I sell myself to others as a servant? "But Qing'er, how can your mother let you be someone else's maid? Mother can't bear to see you..." Zhang sobbed as she spoke, and Li Qingran had to persuade her. Jiang Wen watched the conversation between the mother and daughter, and after eating a few snacks, he asked, "I wonder if the lady can read?" "Of course I can read." Zhang stopped crying and answered Jiang Wen with a puzzled look on her face. "Since you can read, why don't you stay and help me?" Jiang Wen said with a smile. "I'm thinking of opening a shop, and there are people who are illiterate. Why don't you help me, so that you can have a place to go?"
"But, but I don't know how..." Zhang said timidly. "These things are not difficult. Madam, you will be able to learn them if you follow me. If you still don't understand, you can ask me then." After Jiang Wen finished speaking, Zhang was no longer reserved and nodded in agreement. Jiang Wen would naturally have no problem opening a shop. After he came to the imperial capital, he planned to leave a business at the Xianmen Gathering. After all, this is where all the immortals in the world gather, and the Xianmen Gathering will only be more lively than Su City. From now on, everything he obtains from refining elixirs and weapons can be placed in it. Li Qingran was very happy to see that her mother had a good place to go, and they would not have to be separated from her mother anymore. …… The rain was getting heavier, with a crackling sound like soybeans falling. In the dark jungle, apart from the dim lights, there was only the cold light of the sword. Li Yunshang and A Meng supported each other and groped forward in the darkness. She wiped the rain off her face and looked at the faintly flickering lights at the end of the jungle. Those were the followers of the God Worshipping Society who were searching for them. The sound of magic weapons colliding could be heard in the distance, and horrifying screams could be heard from time to time. Feeling the rain soaking through her clothes, Li Yunshang simply took off her coat and covered the two people's heads with it. "My dear sister, A-Meng, if it weren't for you, I would still be sleeping comfortably in the palace." Li Yunshang said with a pout. She covered A-Meng with her clothes, leaving herself half exposed to the heavy rain. Her eyes were alert to the movements around her. Thanks to her monks, she could see the surrounding environment clearly even in the dark. "Sorry." A Meng, who was beside him, leaned close to him, hugged his chest with his hands and said softly. "I didn't expect the situation to be so dangerous this time. Those people are hiding in the mansion, probably not for that thing." "Of course. If they wanted to get that thing, they could have done it some time ago. Why did they drag it to us for no reason and then run into us head-on?" Li Yunshang nodded thoughtfully after hearing Ah Meng's words. She thought of the scene when the members of the God Worshipping Society attacked them, and it was clear that they had ambushed them in advance. "What do you think? Could it be that the Holy Emperor wants to..." "If the Holy Emperor wanted to take it, why would he go through so much trouble?" A Meng asked in confusion. "The God-worshipping sect members are so rampant, it must be because of his connivance. I guess what happened to me was also within his expectations." Li Yunshang laughed at herself. A spell was cast to block out the rain, and the two huddled in it to keep warm, listening to the noises around them. The weather in this Black Mountain Forest was particularly strange, and even the cold was three times colder than usual. Even with great cultivation, one could not help but feel the bone-chilling cold. Ah Meng said in a weak voice: "These people are able to hide so deeply in the imperial capital. The people behind them are probably not simple. They can also know our movements..." "Who do you think is the most suspicious?" Li Yunshang asked seriously. "How many people in the imperial capital are capable of doing these things?" "If we only talk about these things, only Brother Lu and Brother Su know about it. The person who can arrange an insider in the Discipline Hall must be no ordinary person." Ah Meng's eyes were obscure, and there was a hint of anger in his tone. "Don't let me find out who it is, otherwise..." "Could it be Senior Brother Lu?" Li Yunshang used her magic power to dry her coat, and then wiped off the rain on her body. She was thankful that it was not winter in Montenegro, otherwise it would have been even more difficult to endure. After wiping off the rain on her body, Li Yunshang handed the dried coat to Ah Meng: "Wipe it off."
A Meng hesitated for a while, but still reached out to take the coat. After all, the sticky feeling all over her body did make her feel a little uncomfortable. "Thank you." A Meng said softly as she took off her clothes and put them on. Li Yunshang took out a fire talisman and lit it, then looked at A Meng standing beside her in the faint light of the fire. Her slender and well-proportioned back was facing her, and a long wound was cut on her smooth skin by the sharp force, like a bad line painted on the white paper, which was somewhat painful to look at. "Tsk, we can be said to have shared joys and sorrows, and been through life and death together, right? If I were a man, I would definitely marry a beautiful woman like you. By the way, how is the progress between you and Senior Brother Lu?" Li Yunshang looked at A Meng and joked. She has always been optimistic and never forgot to comfort people even in such a situation. Listening to the sound of rain, Li Yunshang inexplicably thought of Jiang Wen again. She didn't know how Master Jiang was doing now. When A Meng heard what Li Yunshang said, her face turned slightly hot. "I, I didn't. Senior Brother Lu and I just..." A Meng said in a low voice. "Okay, okay. I know." Li Yunshang said with a smile. "You and Senior Brother Lu are just fellow disciples." "Hmm..." Ah Meng hummed softly and handed the coat to Li Yunshang. "Here you go." Li Yunshang took the coat and put it away. Ah Meng added: "The person who did this should have nothing to do with Senior Brother Lu." "How can you be so sure?" Li Yunshang asked curiously after hearing Ah Meng's words. "You know, only Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Su knew that we entered Tianque Palace to steal that thing." "I know what kind of person Senior Brother Lu is. Even if he wants to use this method, he won't do it himself." Ah Meng said calmly. "Senior Brother Lu is extremely cautious." "By the way, how are you and that Master Jiang?" A Meng didn't want to talk about Lu Shiming anymore, so she just changed the topic to Jiang Wen. Li Yunshang really changed her mind after hearing this. She sighed and said, "Master Jiang said he would come to the imperial capital. What if he doesn't find me?" "We still have to get rid of these members of the God Worshipping Society and escape from this Black Mountain." (End of this chapter)
