One day, she transmigrated into a book as the female supporting character, whose fiancé is the first devoted male supporting character who is loyal only to the female lead.
According to the ...
Jie Chi's gaze made Xu Lanyin feel guilty. Could it be that he saw that she was a ghost in another body?
Jie Chi said to Xu Lanyin, "The female donor was originally destined to die young, but the unusual bridge of her nose and the addition of a cinnabar mole at the tip of her eyebrow have completely changed her fate. Once you pass that hurdle, you will turn adversity into good fortune and live a life of wealth and prosperity." He then said, "Blackroot grass is a magical medicine. It's a blessing from heaven for a person to pick even one, but you picked several. This means you have gained more blessings and changed your fate..."
Xu Lanyin thought to herself, what an old half-immortal! He had even seen through the original owner's fate of premature death. It turned out that she was able to travel through time because the original owner had gathered blackroot grass, which had changed the fate of this body.
She remembered that she did have a small black mole, the size of a sesame seed, between her eyebrows. The old monk had said it was a "cinnabar mole." Could it be that a change in fate had also caused the black mole to turn red? At home, she had a bronze mirror, and the mole was small. She had only examined it carefully when she first crossed over, and would take a closer look when she returned.
However, she was very happy when the old monk said that she would be able to turn misfortune into good fortune and live a rich and prosperous life.
With this kind of destiny, the small Nanping County would definitely not be able to accommodate her. So she would have made her fortune in the provincial capital, and she might even develop in the capital.
Xu Lanyin smiled again and said, "Since Master has seen that I will be rich and prosperous throughout my life, then Master, please take a look at whether I can get married in this lifetime."
Jie Chi chanted a Buddhist chant and said, "I really don't like to help people predict their marriages. If you really want to know, please make some more food with this and that."
Judging from his winking expression, the "something" and "something" should refer to meat or wine, two things Xu Lanyin was unwilling to make for him, as it felt like a crime. Since he didn't say it explicitly, she assumed he meant milk and eggs. Anyway, she didn't care whether she could get married or not. She smiled and said, "Okay, we'll do it next time."
Jie Chi seemed to see that Xu Lanyin was just trying to give him a perfunctory answer, so he continued to persuade her gently, "If the little girl is well behaved and this poor monk is happy, it will definitely benefit you and this silly boy. Although this silly boy is stupid, he is the only disciple I have ever accepted in my life. He will definitely have some luck in the future."
However, Zhao Wuze didn't listen to what the old monk said at all. He looked at Xu Lanyin absentmindedly. He wanted to know who else Xu Lanyin could find to turn the black root grass into the Immortal Bone Pill.
Seeing Zhao Wu's silly look, Jie Chi rubbed his hands and wanted to hit someone again. Zhao Wu quickly walked to Xu Lanyin's side.
Jie Chi pulled his white beard and said, "You are not in the mood to learn martial arts today, and I am even less in the mood to teach you. Go away, come back another day."
Zhao Wu also had no intention of staying here, so he took Xu Lanyin and said goodbye.
After leaving the Zen room, Zhao Wu couldn't wait to express his confusion.
Xu Lanyin was also thinking about this. Even if Blackroot Grass was a miracle drug, it would be useless if she kept it herself. She had to sell it to Baicaotang to realize its value.
She said, "The old doctor said that if I find blackroot grass again, I should go to the Baicaotang in the capital. The shopkeeper Wan there knows the value of it and will give me a good price. Since there are people in the Baicaotang who know the value of it, there must be someone who can make that kind of medicine. I will sell it to them, but the prerequisite is that they can help me cure someone. At most, they will pay me less for the medicine."
Zhao Wu was so excited and moved that his eyes were red. He had never thought that his elder brother, who had lost his leg at the age of fourteen, still had a chance to stand up again. She bowed deeply to Xu Lanyin and said, "Sister, I already owe you so much for the Jade Regenerating Cream, and now I owe you the Immortal Bone Pills. How much does that cost? I will be successful and make a lot of money so that you can enjoy a good life." As if that wasn't enough, she added, "I will sell myself to you completely. Not only my money, but my life too."
Xu Lanyin joked, "When you become successful in the future, just give me some money and I'll take over. As for my life, I don't want it. It's useless even if I have it."
Zhao Wu was a little hurt. "Sister, do you despise me so much? Silver has a price, but life is priceless."
Xu Lanyin smiled and said, "We'll find an opportunity to sell medicine at the Baicaotang in the capital."
Zhao Wu clenched his fist and said, "With my current skills, it will be no problem for me to sneak into the Wen Mansion and get my elder brother out. The sooner we get to the capital, the sooner we can treat my elder brother."
Xu Lanyin studied Zhao Wu carefully. He had grown nearly ten centimeters in the past six months, now standing at an estimated 1.78 meters tall. He had also become much more robust. Add to that his large dimples and gradually calming, deep eyes, and he was a stark change from the awkward boy she had first met. Even with the change, he still bore some resemblance to his former self. However, if he put on some makeup, no one familiar with him would recognize him.
He said, "We have to think through every aspect of how to rescue them. We need to get them out and find a safe place to hide. We also need to find a way to get them out of the capital. We have to make sure nothing goes wrong..."
Zhao Wu also knew that rescuing someone required careful planning. Otherwise, not only would all previous efforts be wasted, but both his elder brother and the Xu family would be in danger. He said, "Even if I don't rescue them right away, I want to return to Beijing and secretly meet with my elder brother at night."
Xu Lanyin said, "It's time to go back and see your eldest brother. But my mother has always been reluctant for me to go to Beijing. Let's wait a little longer and find a good excuse." She thought of the small wooden sign and asked, "Do you know who the owner of Baicaotang is?"
Zhao Wu shook his head and said, "I only know that Baicaotang is second only to the Imperial Hospital in the capital. It is the largest and best private medical clinic and pharmacy."
The two of them went to the main hall to worship the Buddha, ate a vegetarian meal, and then went to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and also to visit the place where Zhao Wu fell off the cliff. When they came down the mountain, the sun was already setting.
The two hurried on their way. Xu Lanyin was so tired that she didn't even bother to open her mouth. Only Zhao Wuxu kept talking.
When they were almost at Yefeng Valley, Zhao Wu suddenly stopped and said "hush" softly to Xu Lanyin.
Zhao Wu listened carefully, then climbed up the tree on tiptoe, looked ahead, and jumped down again. He whispered to Xu Lanyin, "There's a man inside who looks like Brother Hong. He's being chased by two people."
Zhao Wu looked around and asked Xu Lanyin to hide in a bush. He quickly rushed into the valley.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Wu whistled, asking Xu Lanyin to come over.
Xu Lanyin ran in and saw Zhao Wu squatting on the ground at the foot of a hillside, holding Hong Zhen, whose face was bruised and his clothes were covered in blood. Two corpses lay beside him. She exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Hong, are you okay?"
Hong Zhen said, "Thanks to Brother Zhao's timely arrival, I wasn't killed by them." His eyes were filled with sorrow, and he murmured, "They won't let me survive. You guys should go now. Don't let me get you into trouble..."
He was filled with indignation. That bastard Hong Wei was actually trying to silence someone. He could die, but would his wife, children, and parents also be killed by them?
