Duan Hongling asked the maid to call Mr. Shen over.
Li Erniu stood behind Xiao Zhan the whole time, not daring to say a word.
Mr. Shen walked into the room with excitement on his face, but was stunned when he saw Xiao Zhan.
He knew that the Biyun Pill was refined by Xiao Zhan, and he thought that Xiao Zhan was an old man who had meditated on the alchemy path for many years, but he did not expect that he turned out to be a handsome young man.
"Master Xiao's alchemy attainments really impress me!"
Xiao Zhan also bowed his hand:
"I just happen to have some experience in refining Biyundan."
"I can't make other elixirs well either."
Hearing this, Duan Hongling's eyes revealed a trace of imperceptible disappointment.
If her initial enthusiasm for Xiao Zhan was due to her own personality, then after learning that Xiao Zhan was an alchemist, her attitude became even more enthusiastic.
Alchemists, no matter which force they belong to, are extremely valued.
Especially powerful alchemists are highly coveted.
Duan Hongling was even thinking about inviting Xiao Zhan to stay in the Treasure Pavilion.
But if Xiao Zhan was only good at refining Biyun Dan, then she would have to consider such a thing.
When Mr. Shen heard this, he took a deep look at Xiao Zhan, then nodded and started chatting.
Not long after, Duan Hongling called the maid in again and asked the maid to take Xiao Zhan and Li Erniu to find a room to stay. Read the book
As soon as Xiao Zhan and Li Erniu left, Duan Hongling sighed:
"I thought we were going to have another powerful alchemist in the Treasure Pavilion."
"It's a pity that I can only refine Biyun Dan..."
Mr. Shen smiled and shook his head:
"Hong Ling, you don't really believe what he said, do you?"
"Biyun Dan is a third-grade elixir, and he can refine it so well. So whether it is a fourth-grade or fifth-grade elixir, his refining level will not be lower than mine at least."
Hearing this, Duan Hongling's eyes flashed with joy again:
"Mr. Shen, are you serious about this?"
Mr. Shen nodded immediately:
"But this Xiao Zhan said this deliberately, obviously not wanting to attract attention."
"I estimate that even if you invite him, he will not agree to stay in our Treasure Pavilion."
"But making friends with such a powerful alchemist will do no harm to our Treasure Pavilion!"
Duan Hongling thought for a moment, nodded and said:
"He seems to be collecting heavenly materials and earthly treasures that contain the power of chaos. I asked someone to send a warning to see if the mountain seekers who work for us still have them."
After saying that, Duan Hongling walked out of the room.
On the other side, the maid took Xiao Zhan and Li Erniu to a secluded place.
"Mr. Xiao, this is where our guests live. There is currently no one else here, and no one will disturb you."
Xiao Zhan nodded and walked into the room.
Li Erniu stood at the door of the room, a little at a loss:
"Sir...sir, how about I leave first?"
Xiao Zhan thought of what Li Erniu had said before, that he still had his mother and sister at home.
"Well, you go back first, don't let your mother and sister worry."
Xiao Zhan thought for a while and asked:
"Are there any other difficulties between your mother and your sister?"
Li Erniu's eyes suddenly turned red and he knelt directly at the door:
"Sir, my mother and my sister are weak and sick. I would like to ask you to help them treat their illnesses. I will definitely repay you in the future!"
Xiao Zhan frowned slightly:
"Let's go then. The auction will start in three days. There is still time."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan walked out of the room, took Li Erniu to the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, and then slowly walked away.
Duan Hongling happened to see this scene, so she frowned slightly and asked her personal maid:
"Where are you going, Mr. Xiao?"
The maid said truthfully:
"I just vaguely heard the child saying that his mother and sister were not in good health and asked Mr. Xiao to treat their mother and sister."
Duan Hongling fell silent immediately.
Li Erniu is just an ordinary person. At first glance, he looks like a child from a poor family.
Xiao Zhan actually went out of his way to treat his mother and sister, which shows that he is a kind person at heart.
While Duan Hongling was silent, the maid suddenly smiled and joked:
"Miss, Mr. Xiao is handsome and elegant. Are you attracted to him?"
"You have never seen the genius pursuits of so many powerful forces."
Duan Hongling rolled her eyes at the maid:
"You damn girl are talking nonsense!"
A small mountain village fifty miles outside Baisha City.
Xiao Zhan took Li Erniu down from high altitude.
Li Erniu's face was pale, and his legs were shaking with fear.
But there was a strong yearning flashing in his eyes.
Xiao Zhan smiled faintly:
"Practice hard and you can fly in the future."
Li Erniu nodded heavily, and then ran towards his home with Xiao Zhan with excitement on his face.
Li Erniu's home is at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village.
"Mom, little sister, I invited the adults to come back and help you treat your illness!"
Li Erniu's face was full of excitement, but as soon as he ran into the yard, he was stunned, and the next moment he rushed towards him crying:
"Let go of my mother, let go of my sister!"
In the yard, a group of villagers, young and old, crowded together.
A woman with a haggard face was curled up on the ground holding a frightened and crying little girl.
Li Erniu pushed away the crowd, opened his arms and stopped in front of the woman. Facing a group of villagers who were taller than him, he stared and shouted:
"What are you going to do!"
"Get away! Li Erniu, you little brat, get out of the way!"
A strong young man reached out and grabbed Li Erniu's clothes, and with a gentle pull, Li Erniu fell to the ground.
Then he looked at the woman on the ground and chuckled:
"Luo Hui, without the help of our villagers over the years, your family would have died long ago!"
"What's wrong with you sacrificing yourself now for the sake of our entire village?"
"Don't you have any gratitude at all?"
A woman next to her with her arms folded echoed:
"Isn't that right? It's your honor to see Mr. Bao fall in love with you. What right do you have to say no?"
"Master Bao is a cultivator. When he gets angry, our entire village will be razed to the ground!"
"Whether you like it or not, you have to serve Master Bao!"
As she said this, the woman glared at Luo Hui fiercely:
"How can I be worse than you? Why doesn't Mr. Bao look down on me?"
"Shut up!" A white-haired old man stared, then looked at Luo Hui and said:
"Your man has been dead all these years, and no one in the village has given you a hard time."
"You, a foreigner, should know how to be grateful."
"Our village is unlucky. It's our turn to make offerings this month, and there's nothing we can do."
"It just so happens that Mr. Bao has taken a liking to you."
"You can go in peace. Our village will take care of your son and daughter for you, so that you have no worries."
Luo Hui's eyes turned red and she choked with sobs:
"None of the women who serve Mr. Bao can survive more than half a month!"
"I know that if I die, my son and woman will be driven out of the village."
Having said this, Luo Hui pushed her little daughter to Li Erniu's side and choked with sobs:
"Er Niu! Don't stay here!"
"Take your sister and leave as far away as possible!"
Luo Hui didn't know when a knife appeared in her hand, and she put it directly on her neck:
"Let my son and daughter go! Otherwise I will
Die here! "
The leader of the old man frowned, and with a look, the strong man standing next to him rushed towards Luo Hui.
Luo Hui roared, and the dagger in her hand was about to cut through her neck.
The strong man grabbed the dagger and slapped Luo Hui hard on the face.
Courtyard entrance.
Xiao Zhan watched this scene calmly.
He has been watching Li Erniu.
Li Erniu was trembling all over and suddenly pounced on the strong man without warning.
His height only reached the heart of this strong man.
But he didn't have the slightest fear at the moment.
He didn't know where the strength came from, but he pushed the strong man to the ground, then threw himself on the strong man, grabbed the dagger, and plunged it into the man's heart crazily one after another.
"Puch!"
"Puch!"
Blood splashed all over Li Erniu.
The people around him were instantly frightened and backed away.
Luo Hui was also stunned and quickly reached out to pull Li Erniu.
The little girl next to her was so frightened that she cried loudly.
Li Erniu seemed to have lost his mind, his eyes were blood red, he raised the dagger still dripping blood in his hand, and threw himself at the other people in the yard.
"This kid is crazy! Beat him to death, beat him to death!"
A group of young men immediately found handy sticks and stones and surrounded Li Erniu.
But the strength that Li Erniu exploded at this moment was so powerful that these people couldn't resist it!
In just a short moment, three more strong men were stabbed to the ground by him.
At this moment, the old man suddenly took out a piece of talisman and tore it into pieces.
In just a few breaths, strong pressure descended.
Several figures fell from the sky.
The man in the lead, a man with a leopard head, glanced at Li Erniu with a cold expression. With a wave of his hand, Li Erniu was blown away. He opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood, and he fainted instantly!
Several people following the leopard-headed man sneered.
"Master Leopard!"
Under the leadership of the old man, all the villagers knelt down tremblingly.
"A bunch of trash!"
Leopard Head snorted coldly and glanced at Luo Hui, who was holding Li Erniu and crying:
"One woman can't handle it. It seems like your village no longer needs to exist!"
The old man trembled and quickly begged for mercy:
"Master Bao, please show me your noble hand!"
"Don't worry, we will definitely find a woman more beautiful than Luo Hui to give to you next month!"
Leopard Head chuckled:
"Then let's make a deal, if we don't see anyone by then, you will all die!"
Saying that, the leopard head looked at Luo Hui:
"You don't want to serve me?"
Luo Hui held the dying Li Erniu, looked at the leopard head and said word by word:
"You, all of you, will die a happy death!"
"Ha," Leopard Head chuckled:
"I don't like forcing others."
"If you don't want to serve me, then go die."
"In addition, your son and your daughter will also die with you. How about I be kind enough? Let your family be reunited even after death."
A man next to the leopard head chuckled and walked towards Luo Hui. The long knife in his hand was raised high, a black light flashed on the blade, and it struck Luo Hui instantly.
"boom!"
Before the sword light fell, a golden light blew the man away and exploded into a ball of blood mist before he hit the ground.
Xiao Zhan's voice sounded at the door of the courtyard:
"Leopard demon, if you don't stay in the mountains and stay well, you come out to do evil."
