Qin Luo thanked him repeatedly and even handed him a small purse.
"These are pills made by my grandfather. They are very beneficial for patients with chronic illnesses, and even healthy people can benefit from taking them to improve their health! I hope Brother Liang won't find them offensive!"
Liang Yu took the pills and put them in his pocket.
"Why would you complain about a gift from a brother? I have a day off tomorrow. If you're not familiar with the area, I can show you around!"
Just as Qin Luo was about to refuse, Wu Hua tugged at her arm.
"Alright, then we'll trouble you, Brother Liang. We'll be waiting for you at the Bafang Inn early tomorrow morning!"
"good!"
As agreed, Liang Yu left only after escorting Qin Luo and Wu Hua to the inn.
The innkeeper led the donkey-hide gelatin to the backyard. Qin Luo opened a guest room and led Wu Hua inside before asking it.
Why should he come with you?
"He exudes an aura of death!"
Qin Luo was shocked: "He's dead?"
This wasn't the first time Wu Hua had complained that she was stupid.
"It's not that he died, it's that his sister died, or perhaps she was saved by a demon!"
"It can't be such a coincidence! If they've already been rescued, why would they need to buy jade leaves?"
"It seems unlikely that they can be integrated. To be precise, what was saved is no longer his sister!"
Qin Luo was filled with nothing but terror.
"Possession? Isn't the demon realm easy to navigate? Possessing a human whose lifespan is less than a hundred years? There's no spiritual energy for cultivation in this realm, isn't that just courting death?"
"Yes! The heretical cultivators only live a few decades longer than ordinary people. Why is that?"
Qin Luo's mind flashed instantly to the TV series she had watched as a child.
"Little one, do you think it's possible that he's repaying a debt of gratitude by helping the little girl fulfill her wish?"
Wu Hua touched her chin.
"It's not impossible!"
Qin Luo recalled Wu Hua's unusual behavior earlier.
"And what about Yushu? Do you know it?"
Wu Hua shook her head
"I don't recognize it, but if I'm not mistaken, it should be a Wen Yu tree. But Wen Yu trees with their colorful jade leaves usually cultivate into demon bodies. How could their true form be dug up and auctioned off?"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other.
"To repay the debt of gratitude!!!"
Qin Luo was absolutely certain
"It must have been Miss Wen Yushu who, to repay the little girl's kindness, crossed mountains and valleys to come to the human world. Who knew she would be discovered by the herb gatherer, who bound her with a red rope? She struggled fiercely and managed to break free of her soul..."
Wu Hua simply couldn't listen anymore.
"Luo Luo, compared to your great-grandfather, your story is utterly pathetic! And the red rope is for catching ginseng, Wen Yushu isn't afraid of it at all!"
"Oh, why is that!"
"It must have hidden its true form first, then the tree spirit left its body, possessed something, and couldn't come back. Unfortunately, its true form was discovered by someone!"
Qin Luo sighed.
"In short, it's a disaster, whether it's Wen Yushu or Liang Yu's sister!"
The two decided to take it one step at a time and went back to their space to wash up and rest, planning to explore Hanyun County properly the next day!
Early the next morning
Qin Luo dressed Wu Hua in a down jacket, draped her in a cotton cloak made of willow branches, and put on a cotton hat!
I also put on black cotton pants and a gray down jacket.
The zipper was hidden by a long scarf, and at first glance, it looked no different from what ordinary people wear.
The two went downstairs and saw Liang Yu waiting at the door.
Qin Luo quickly ran over, pulled him inside, and brushed the snow off his shoulders.
"Why are you standing outside in this freezing weather!"
Wu Hua also ran to ask the waiter to bring hot tea and food. She poured a cup of hot tea for Liang Yu.
"Brother Liang, are you stupid?! If you catch a cold, you'll have to drink bitter medicine!"
Liang Yu took the cup and took a sip.
"I'm not a resident here, I shouldn't have come in and disturbed you!"
Qin Luo asked the waiter for a clean handkerchief and handed it to him.
"How could you be so silly? You came here to wait for us, we're your guests! Of course you can come in, hurry up and wipe your face, it's all red from the cold!"
Then, noticing his thin clothing, she asked, "Where's your cotton-padded coat? Why are you wearing such a thin coat?"
Liang Yu was a little embarrassed, his cheeks flushed.
"I pawned my cotton-padded coat, but don't worry, I'm not afraid of the cold at all. I promised to go shopping with you, and I won't go back on my word!"
Qin Luo and Wu Hua didn't understand.
Why pawn your cotton-padded coat?
Liang Yu found it somewhat difficult to speak.
"Because I need to maintain order outside the auction house tomorrow, I asked my cousin to go in and bid for the jade leaf for me. He said he had inquired about the price. I didn't have enough money prepared, so I had to pawn all the valuables in my house..."
Qin Luo saw that his eyes were clear and didn't seem to be lying, and thought he was ridiculously foolish.
Although clothing was expensive in ancient times, it was still only worth a few hundred coins. Without this cotton-padded coat, it's hard to say whether he could survive the winter.
"Do your family members know you're doing this? Didn't they stop you?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Yu lowered his head dejectedly.
"My parents died early, and my younger sister was unaware of it. I took the family's money to buy jade leaves, and she didn't know that I had pawned the items!"
Wu Hua felt bad seeing this, so she sent a telepathic message to Qin Luo.
"Luo Luo, we have so many clothes in our space, they're just sitting there anyway, why don't we..."
Qin Luo and it were of one mind, so of course Qin Luo understood its meaning.
She patted Wu Hua's little hand, then walked upstairs.
"Brother Liang, could you watch the baby for me for a bit? I'll be right down!"
"Okay!"
Qin Luo went upstairs and started searching through her spatial storage. She remembered that when she was at the base, she had collected a lot of simple windproof and down jackets!
I had previously taken more than a dozen pieces from Weisi County for my elders to wear.
Nobody found it strange; at most, they just said they'd never seen the material before.
She pulled out a men's down jacket, compared it to Liang Yu's size, and thought it would be about right. Then she started looking for cotton-padded trousers and shoes.
