Chapter 1219: The Moon Shines After the Clouds Clear (I)
Nie Xiu is a very strange person and always asks such strange questions.
So much so that Tu Ran didn't know how to answer for a moment.
If it's just a simple friendship, it's fine.
But his thoughts have been exposed.
Tu Ran already knew.
Now that I know this, it is naturally impossible to pretend that nothing happened as before.
"Mr. Nie, I actually..."
Tu Ran hadn't finished speaking yet.
The guy interrupted her.
"Okay, I know everything. You don't need to say anything. I was just asking casually. Your answer doesn't matter."
"As for the choice between the two, since you have made your choice, then follow me."
After saying that, Nie Xiu turned and left.
Tu Ran originally wanted to say that he couldn't walk.
But unexpectedly...
A magical power seemed to be continuously injected into her body.
It made her feel her body instantly lighter.
She sat up quickly, her movements extremely swift.
Not at all as weak as just now.
She looked at the faint white light emanating from the palms of her hands.
Muttering to himself: Could it be... that someone has injected spiritual power into me?
Before she had time to think about it, she caught up with Nie Xiu.
Following Nie Xiu to the back mountain...
"Nancheng, Mr. Nie and I are going to the villa in the back mountain."
"You and Miss Shen have some tea first and wait for us."
Afraid that Xie Nancheng would overthink things, Tu Ran still told him.
Xie Nancheng nodded slightly.
Chen Yingli's housekeeper replaced the pot of tea for them in time.
"You two."
“It’s legendary.”
"To be honest, I have a lot of friends, but none of them are as legendary as you two."
Xie Nancheng looked tired and dejected.
After this trip to Phoenix Ridge, we killed two monsters.
But the real Lu Xuan'er was not rescued either.
And it caused his wife to have a miscarriage...
Xie Nancheng felt very guilty.
Especially since he was originally a male chauvinist who liked to protect others.
Now he is of no help at all and has almost become a burden.
I feel so uncomfortable.
But there is no place to express this emotion.
Facing Shen Yingli's words, he just sighed slightly, "Yes, everyone has their own destiny. Maybe Ranran and I are destined to have this extraordinary life."
"You can smoke, it's okay." Shen Yingli reminded.
"Forget it, you said smoking is prohibited here, I don't want to break this rule."
"Aren't you worried about Tu Ran and Xiu being alone together?"
"If I worried about everything, I wouldn't be Xie Nancheng," he said.
Chen Yingli smiled slightly, "Actually, let me be frank. If Xiu wanted to get Tu Ran, he would have done it long ago, and you wouldn't have had any chance to resist."
"If someone of my aunt's level takes action, you won't be able to resist."
"Yes, I know." He nodded.
"So, Xiu is really very restrained."
"I grew up with him."
"There's nothing he can't get that he likes."
"Except Tu Ran."
"At first I thought he didn't like her enough, but later I realized I was wrong. It was because he liked her so much that he restrained himself. Maybe he didn't want to force Tu Ran and was afraid that she would be unhappy."
Xie Nancheng just listened silently, he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, in the villa in the back mountain.
When Nie Xiu brought Tu Ran in.
I saw an old man sitting in the tea room.
Instead, he did not wear Taoist robes and look like an immortal as imagined.
Instead, he was wearing a black Zhongshan suit and looked like he was about sixty years old.
But around him, he could feel a strong energy fluctuation.
Now that the child has been aborted, Tu Ran is gradually recovering her spiritual power.
So the impact is very strong.
"It was you who injected spiritual power into me just now, right?" Tu Ran asked.
The old man smiled and put down the teacup.
"Thank you, old man." Tu Ran bowed and expressed his gratitude.
"Don't thank me, I only did it for this kid..."
"I haven't interfered with your human world for many years."
"Now that this kid has asked, I still have to help."
"Come on, little girl."
"I'll give you a welcome gift."
After the old man finished speaking, he waved at Tu Ran.
She was about to refuse when Nie Xiu said, "Go ahead, you'll have a surprise."
After hearing what Nie Xiu said, Tu Ran couldn't refuse.
He slowly walked forward and bowed to the old man again.
At this moment, she felt a chill in her palms.
It seems like there is something extra.
Take a closer look.
Tu Ran was dumbfounded!
I was so excited that my hands were shaking.
"This is……"
"This is the one I'm looking for." Tu Ran was extremely excited.
In fact, she has been searching for the whereabouts of the Fire Dragon Ball in recent years.
Regardless of how much that bead is worth, she had it when her grandfather picked it up.
So she always felt that it was the most crucial token to find her family.
But after checking, we found out that someone was killed.
She always felt that the power behind it was too great, and she didn't want to implicate Gu Xixing and Xie Nancheng.
So I didn’t look for it anymore.
I had given up.
But unexpectedly, it is now back in my hands.
"How did this bead come to be..." Tu Ran wanted to ask, how did it come to be in your hand, but he felt that it was presumptuous to ask.
Nie Xiu explained, "This bead has been passed around many times and has indeed fallen into the hands of a certain important person. With your and Xie Nancheng's status, you definitely can't get it back. But I'm different. If I want it, I can get it."
"Thank you, Mr. Nie, and thank you, old man."
"No need to thank me, this originally belonged to you. Do you still remember who you are?" asked the old man.
Tu Ran shook his head.
"Then you should know that you are not from this world, right?"
Tu Ran nodded.
"Other people have parents and dates of birth, but you don't."
"You appeared out of nowhere."
"Yes, that's why I even suspected that I was an alien." Tu Ran said seriously.
The old man was amused.
He chuckled, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Tu Ran became a little kinder.
"You're not an alien. You look just like us and don't have tentacles."
"But you really don't belong to this world."
"We have deciphered this bead of yours."
“Although I haven’t yet been able to fully crack it.”
"But you do come from a place called Yaowang Mountain."
"Yaowang Mountain?" Tu Ran listened to this strange yet familiar name.
"Yes, there is no such thing in this world, so we suspect that you are a hermit family, majoring in medicine."
"You must have encountered an accident and came into this world in chaos."
"So you appeared out of nowhere."
"But we Taoists have always emphasized following the laws of nature."
"Now that you're here, it's your fate."
"It can also be considered as your mortal tribulation."
"The old man is right." Tu Ran nodded.
"This kid just told me that you chose to save your friend, right?" asked the old man.
Tu Ran nodded.
"It's rare to see such a righteous child nowadays."
"Never mind. Since I'm already here, I might as well save one more person."
Then the old man waved his hand.
A beam of light instantly flew into Tu Ran's stomach.
