Chapter 220 Little Zombie's Black Moonlight Taoist Priest 18
Shen Xinran smiled and replied, "Just when you were setting up the formation." This was all thanks to Yue Minglei's nose, which could smell blood from ten meters away, a nose as good as a dog's.
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed across Ma Jingwen's face, and she said very quickly, "You win this time."
A hint of teasing flashed in Shen Xinran's eyes, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn't they say that whoever catches the female ghost wins?"
Ma Jingwen glared at Shen Xinran, "Are you going to be satisfied only if I admit that you have better insight than me?"
Shen Xinran smiled even more happily.
This was undoubtedly a challenge to Ma Jingwen's self-esteem. She waved her hand, removed the golden lock formation, turned around and left.
But when she was halfway there, she still didn't forget to look back, glanced at Shen Xinran, and asked, "I'm leaving, are you leaving or not?"
Shen Xinran smiled and nodded, "I'll leave now."
He Jiang, who was still standing by, clutched his chest and forced himself to stand up. He handed Ma Jingwen a piece of jade and said with a gentle smile, "Master, the center of your formation has fallen."
Ma Jingwen took the array eye and nodded, "Thank you."
Shen Xinran glanced at He Jiang, frowning slightly, but she still said nothing.
He Zhong finally recovered from the shock of the Soul Gathering Formation. He crawled to Shen Xinran's feet and cried, "Master, please save my daughter. She has always been a kind child. She shouldn't have such a fate!"
Chen Xinran looked back at the red-clothed female ghost, shook his head, and said helplessly: "Your formation has been practiced and has been running for three months. There is nothing I can do."
He Zhong's hand tightly grasped the corner of Shen Xinran's clothes. He looked up at Shen Xinran with pleading eyes.
Shen Xinran pulled back the corner of his clothes and sighed, "She has become one with this mine. As long as the mine exists, she will exist. I'm leaving, so you guys can take care of yourselves!"
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, he turned and left.
As they walked out of the mine, they saw He Tianshi returning with a group of constables. He Tianshi said as they walked, "The criminal is inside. Quickly arrest him and kill him without mercy."
…
After not saving He Hai from death, Shen Xinran naturally could not continue to live in the He family. Therefore, after returning to Jincheng, she found an inn and booked a room.
Looking at Ma Jingwen who had been following behind her, Shen Xinran frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"
Ma Jingwen's face flushed red, and she stretched out her hand to Shen Xinran with a slight embarrassment, "Lend me two taels of silver."
Shen Xinran's eyes widened in surprise, "Didn't you say you weren't short of money?"
Ma Jingwen said seriously, "I used to be very rich, but this time when I went out, I met a group of mentally ill soldiers. As soon as they heard my name, they wanted to arrest me."
Shen Xinran asked: "Then what?"
Ma Jingwen said angrily: "Then I would definitely run away! But my wallet also ran away at that time."
Shen Xinran blinked and suddenly felt a little guilty, because she remembered one thing, that is, when she met the group of soldiers on the battlefield, she seemed to have reported Ma Jingwen's name.
Chen Xinran took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Ma Jingwen. He asked with a stiff smile: "Is two taels of silver enough for you? If not, I have more."
Ma Jingwen took the silver and put it in her arms. She waved her hand, "No need. Two taels of silver is just enough for me to go home. Adding the money I lost to you in the bet, I owe you four taels in total. I will pay you back when I get home."
Seeing Ma Jingwen turn around and leave, Shen Xinran quickly reached out and stopped her, advising: "Next time you are questioned by a soldier, don't tell your name."
Ma Jingwen raised her chin and said, "How can that be possible? A real man should never change his name or surname."
Shen Xinran frowned and said, "But they want to catch you!"
Ma Jingwen said with disdain, "They still want to catch me, what wishful thinking."
Shen Xinran opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Ma Jingwen had already left, still full of confidence.
…
Shen Xinran felt that since he was in Jincheng, he must buy himself some small gifts as souvenirs.
She looked at Yue Minglei and raised her eyebrows. "Let me ask you a question. What is Jincheng most famous for?"
Yue Minglei pondered for a moment and then said, "Of course it's gold."
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "Congratulations, you got the answer right. So, I will give myself a set of gold jewelry."
Yue Minglei: "...If you want to buy something, just say so directly. Why do you have to go through so much trouble?"
Early the next morning, Shen Xinran took Yue Minglei to the largest gold shop in Jincheng and began to choose jewelry.
She wanted to buy back the gold earrings she had pawned for double the price. Maybe one day she would run out of money and could pawn them again.
At first, the waiter looked at Shen Xinran's clothes and thought she didn't have much money, so he ignored her.
Shen Xinran was not angry. She turned to look at another waiter and said with a smile, "Please help me pack up all the items I just mentioned. I want them all."
The waiter who had been indifferent the previous second suddenly became enthusiastic and said to Shen Xinran with a smile: "Let me help you!"
Shen Xinran shook his head and nonchalantly pointed at another waiter, "No need, I want him to pack it."
The waiter pointed at by Chen Xinran smiled instantly, "Okay, I'll wrap it for you right away."
You know, for every piece of gold jewelry sold, he can get a one-point reward. He is simply a god of wealth!
The waiter who missed the God of Wealth must have been extremely upset. It turns out that one cannot judge a person by his appearance.
While the waiter was packing the jewelry, Shen Xinran looked at Yue Minglei and said with a smile: "I'm in a good mood today, why don't I give you a piece of gold jewelry as well!"
Yue Minglei frowned and shook his head subconsciously, "No, these are for girls, I don't need them."
Chen Xinran glared at Yue Minglei, "How could you think that! Do you know why you had no money after you woke up?"
Yue Minglei asked, "Why?"
Shen Xinran replied seriously, "Of course it's because you put all your money in your wallet! It's easy for thieves to steal it. Look at me, when I was broke, I pawned a pair of gold earrings, and now I have money! What do you call it? It's called a cunning rabbit with three burrows."
Yue Minglei asked in return, "Then where else can I put my money if I don't keep it on me?"
Chen Xinran's eyes rolled, and he proposed a bold idea, "How about this, I'll help you get a gold tooth, and then when you run out of money in the future, you can pull out the tooth and pawn it."
Yue Minglei rolled his eyes at Shen Xinran and asked, "Then why don't you get a gold tooth yourself?"
Chen Xinran shrugged. "No one paid. If someone paid, I would get one immediately."
Whenever Shen Xinran thought about the heroine waking up the hero in the future and the hero showing his gold teeth, she wanted to laugh.
Yue Minglei's eyes flickered, and he took out a piece of gold from his pocket without any hurry. He said nonchalantly, "It's okay. I'll pay for you."
The smile on Shen Xinran's face froze, and he looked at Yue Minglei with a hint of shock, "Where did you get the gold?"
Yue Minglei's lips curled up slightly, and he said indifferently, "I found it at the mine. I was bored last night, so I processed it a little."
Shen Xinran pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "You've become evil. You actually stole the He family's ore."
Yue Minglei laughed outright, "You also cheated the ghost messenger out of his money, didn't you? I learned this from you."
Shen Xinran glared at Yue Minglei and fell silent.
Yue Minglei continued to ask: "Do you still want to give me dentures?"
After taking a deep breath, Shen Xinran shook his head and said seriously, "Forget it. I suddenly feel that having gold teeth isn't that convenient. It would be so painful to have a tooth pulled out."
