"I see."
Pei Wende nodded clearly and finally understood the details of the toad.
Needless to say, this "Feast of Hundred Demons" really opened Pei Wende's eyes to the various ruthless characters of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
"What about you? What do you want from me?"
Pei Wende didn't believe that Rat II suddenly appeared just to answer his doubts.
Just like Ku Chan and Lao Qi who appeared earlier, Shu Er came to his door now, and most likely he also came to see him specially.
"We are not looking for you."
"Someone else is looking for you."
Shu Er's two heads shook their heads in unison, and then he frankly stated the purpose of his trip.
"Who's looking for me?"
Looking at Shu Er with some curiosity, Pei Wende felt that the person who could make the other party show up to find him must be some simple person, right?
After all, Shu Er did not give in when facing the giant bear with a human face. The person who can command them cannot be a simple person no matter how you think about it.
"I can't tell you yet..."
"You'll find out if you come with us."
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
A moment later, in a remote courtyard somewhere in the manor.
After following Shu Er around the noisy banquet and the group of monsters, Pei Wende noticed that there was actually a secluded courtyard here.
On the surface, this secluded courtyard seems to be no different from the outside.
But the white birch tree that covered almost two-thirds of the yard looked surprisingly eye-catching.
If Pei Wende remembered correctly, the birch tree seemed to have appeared when he first entered the manor.
And now, this birch tree has been moved from the front yard of the manor to this secluded small yard.
"You are the one who wants to see me?"
Pei Wende's gaze briefly paused on the birch tree, and then he turned his gaze to the young figure under the tree.
Standing upright under the birch tree, there is a persistent dark cloud raining above your head...
Who else appeared in front of Pei Wende at this moment but Pingyi?
"Hello, Master Pei."
As calm and collected as her mother, Pingyi tactfully but politely weighed the hem of her skirt.
The continuous drizzle above her head became her iconic feature at this moment, fully displaying the characteristics of this little girl.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, I've been looking forward to this moment for a long time."
It was obvious that there was no rise and fall in the calm voice, but Pei Wende seemed to feel the suppressed excitement and enthusiasm from it.
"What do you find me for?"
The confused De Pei Wende carefully walked to the birch tree, not at all mistaking Pingyi for a little girl who matched her appearance.
"I want to ask you a favor, and I'm willing to pay any price for it."
As Pingyi spoke, he spread his palms, revealing the huge gold nugget held in them.
"As long as you are willing to help me, I can give you as much gold nugget as you want."
Looking silently at Ping Yi, whose face was full of sincerity, Pei Wende didn't even know what to say for a while.
Let’s not talk about what kind of help the other party wants from me, why does the other party think that they can buy you with gold nuggets?
"Huh? You don't need these gold nuggets?"
As if he understood Pei Wende's silence, Pingyi, who was still confident at first, suddenly showed a little surprise. Valley
"Master, didn't you say that what humans like most are these gold nuggets?"
Turning his head to glance at Shu Er, who quietly appeared behind him, Ping Yi's tone was full of doubts and inquiries.
"Well, generally speaking, you like it, right?"
"You obviously made a mistake in your judgment!"
Pei Wende's silence was also incomprehensible. As soon as one of Shu Er's heads finished speaking, he was ridiculed by his other head.
"Wait, let me sort out my thoughts first..."
Putting out his hand to stop Shu Er's quarrel, Pei Wende, who was speechless and helpless, asked.
"Pingyi, I should be able to call you that, right?"
Pingyi nodded affirmatively. She didn't care what others called her. What she was really worried about now was how to get Pei Wende to help her.
"You have something to ask of me, and then Shu Er told you that you can buy me with gold. Is that right?"
Nodding again, the confusion on Pingyi's face became more obvious.
Listening to Pei Wende's tone, using gold as payment doesn't seem like a wrong choice?
So why does it fail when used on the other party?
"Okay! I probably know what's going on."
"If you were an ordinary person, your approach would definitely work."
"But the problem is that I am...well, half a monk..."
When saying this, Pei Wende hesitated slightly, and then immediately corrected him.
"No, even if they are not monks, most practitioners will not be tempted by mere gold."
Bui Wende does not deny the importance of "rich couples and legal couples", nor does he deny the importance of gold in this troubled world.
But the problem is that even the most greedy cultivator cannot rashly reach a deal with Pingyi under such circumstances.
"I see?"
Pingyi nodded somewhat suddenly, not knowing whether he understood or not, and continued to ask.
"Then what reward do you need before you are willing to help me?"
Looking at Ping Yi with a persistent look on his face, Pei Wende, who was a little dumbfounded, had to ask straight to the point.
"This is not a matter of remuneration. First tell me what you want me to do for you."
To be honest, Pei Wende was also a little curious about whether Pingyi needed help.
Or to put it another way, why is the other party so sure that he can help her?
Before tonight, I had never even seen the other party, let alone how I could help him.
On the other hand, Pingyi seemed very sure that he could help her?
And the whole process was so mysterious that Pei Wende had to wonder whether the water demon couple knew about this?
"is that so?"
Looking at Pei Wende blankly, Pingyi, who had never dealt with outsiders seriously, was confused.
Although everything in front of him was completely different from what his master Shu Er said, since Pei Wende was willing to agree to his request, Pingyi simply stopped worrying too much.
"I want to be separated from my brother. I want a body that I can move around on my own, rather than sharing the use of my body with my brother like I do now."
"This is my request, it's very simple!"
"Since you are the 'Buddha' in my dream, you must be willing to help me, right?"
