Ways to make money
With a creaky sound, the door opened and all the children came out, running towards their relatives.
Jiang Qianfeng came out and read out the names and their corresponding spiritual roots one by one: "Liu Yaozu, five spiritual roots! Liu Jizong, mortal!"
"What? Yaozu, you actually have five spiritual roots. How is that possible? I don't believe our child has five spiritual roots! We both have four spiritual roots!"
"Mortal, Ji Zong! I don't believe it! Your father and I both have five spiritual roots at the worst, how could you be a mortal! No chance of cultivating immortality!"
Two arrogant couples on the bus beat and scolded their children. They did not accept this outcome and wanted to cause trouble.
But when they thought of the child who had just been thrown out of the temple and the two imposing security guards at the door, they were terrified. They could only glare at their son fiercely, and then turn their attention to Liu Xiaoqing, who was still waiting for her sister.
"Xiao Qing, you're still waiting. Isn't everyone out? Your silly sister might have gotten lost in the ancestral hall and offended the monk. She might even be locked up in some dark room!"
"That's right! I don't know how much trouble your silly sister has gotten herself into. She's nowhere to be found. I think she's in serious trouble!"
"But don't tell me, maybe that silly sister of hers has some kind of destiny! Don't they say that people who are different from others have some good luck? I think she has been spiritually damaged since birth, so it can be considered fate!"
"Hahahaha! You have a big mouth!"
The two couples laughed, perhaps they could get spiritual happiness by belittling others, so the others also laughed, because their children had failed the exam and had no chance of becoming immortals.
Liu Xiaoqing knew she was outnumbered, so she didn't argue with them. Instead, she trembled as she stepped forward and asked Jiang Qianfeng, "Master cultivator, where is my sister? Why didn't you call her name?"
Jiang Qianfeng glanced at her, then lowered his head and looked at the list. He said impatiently, "Why are you in such a hurry? The list hasn't been read out yet. Are you Liu Xiaowan's family member?"
"Yes, I'm Liu Xiaowan's older sister, my name is Liu Xiaoqing. May I ask where my sister is? Did she get into trouble? I apologize, please don't be angry with her. She was born with a defective soul, it wasn't intentional! She's still young, please forgive her!"
Liu Xiaoqing remembered the spiritual beads given by her benefactor. She took some with her and respectfully offered them: "Master cultivator, this is a little bit of my savings. Please come and have a drink."
Jiang Qianfeng took a quick look and suddenly realized: "Oh! It's you!"
He seemed like a completely different person, smiling broadly, "How dare we take your spirit beads? Your sister's spiritual roots have been detected to be gold and fire, which is extremely valuable! We've already contacted the higher-ups, and they're very happy. Our remote Qingshan Town has finally produced a genius with dual spiritual roots, so they've just sent someone to pick her up!"
Liu Xiaoqing was stunned. She didn't know whether children with dual spiritual roots could meet their families, so she hesitated. "But I didn't see any immortals visiting just now."
Jiang Qianfeng seemed to have already typed out a manuscript and quickly read it to her: "This genius with dual spiritual roots must be well protected, so we took the internal channel. It's normal that you didn't see it. We will provide you with some subsidies. Here is a form for you to sign. I will give you something later."
Liu Xiaoqing looked at the Family Consent Form in front of her. She looked at Jiang Qianfeng who was urging her to sign. He smiled and motioned for her to sign: "Hurry up and sign. There will be good things waiting for you later!"
The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for other parents to know, especially when their children excitedly told them that they had just discovered a genius with dual spiritual roots when testing their spiritual roots!
"Tsk, what are you so proud of? Isn't it just a dual spiritual root? Such good luck for an idiot. I don't know if there's something wrong with the spiritual disk. Why didn't our Yaozu detect dual spiritual roots?"
"Hey, Xiaoqing, you're still holding on! Hurry up and sign this. Aren't you going to get the good stuff? Maybe there are a few low-grade spirit stones waiting for you!"
"What are you hesitating about? Are you showing off to us? You're acting so weak and fragile, like a fox!"
The words of these people became more and more unpleasant, but it was exactly what Jiang Qianfeng wanted. He immediately stopped them seriously and made the decision for her.
He tried to persuade her: "What's wrong? These kids saw it too. I'm not lying, am I? If you don't believe me, ask the security guard. Someone with gold and fire spiritual roots did appear just now."
"But you also know that in our remote Qingshan Town, there really aren't any good talents. So we immediately reported it to the leadership, and the leadership was very excited. So we immediately arranged for Xiaowan to meet the leadership. We didn't have time to let you two sisters say goodbye, which is also our fault. I'll bring you some good things later."
Liu Xiaoqing wiped her tears, hugged her rabbit doll, and hesitated: "Will we sisters see each other again in the future? I still want to see Xiaowan. She doesn't understand anything yet. What if she forgets me?"
"Don't worry, as long as she draws energy into her body, the spiritual defect will be healed. Believe me. She will definitely not forget you as her sister. We just need to wait patiently for her to enter the upper three districts!"
Jiang Qianfeng saw that she seemed moved, so he immediately comforted her, and then winked at Lin Tianya in secret.
Lin Tianya made a gesture to him, and Jiang Qianfeng felt relieved. Liu Xiaoqing also signed and took the things after much persuasion. Jiang Qianfeng also kindly sent her to the bus.
The bus was bustling with firecrackers and decorated with colorful lights. Liu Xiaoqing was also infected by the festive atmosphere and hoped that Xiaowan would recover from her illness one day and return from the upper third district in glory.

A dark room
Jiang Qianfeng was a little scared: "Why should we go to all this trouble? Should we tell her sister Liu Xiaowan that she has dual spiritual roots? Wouldn't it be better to erase the memories of those children and seal the secret directly? We can just say that she angered us cultivators, ran around in fear, and accidentally fell down the stairs and died? "
Lin Tianya shook his head: "Brother Jiang, if we do this, then all our profits will have to be shared with the security guards! Don't forget, those security guards are not so easy to deal with."
He continued explaining with a smug smile, "Now that the leader has taken her aboard the spaceship, all he needs to do is tamper with the spaceship to make her fall off and die. It won't have anything to do with us. Who wants her to make a mistake during the journey?"
Jiang Qianfeng stroked his beard and nodded in agreement. "Great, brother! That's a really great trick! I still need to learn more from you. This way, not only can we avoid responsibility, but we can also earn more money. Why should those security guards get the same salary as us? We stand there every day, so tired, and we have to talk to these kids. It's exhausting!"
"But is the share you mentioned really that much?"
Lin Tianya raised his eyebrows: "The greater the risk, the greater the reward. If the reward was not much, why would I take such a big risk to do such a thing? After all, if a genius with dual spiritual roots is detected, we can also get some bonuses, but these bonuses are far less than the low-grade spirit stones that master gave us."
Finally, she patted his shoulder and said, "Brother! Let's not worry about it. The rest of the matter has nothing to do with us! Let's just wait for our share of the profits peacefully! Come on, I'll buy you a drink!"
The two brothers went to drink arm in arm.
Little did she know that Liu Xiaoqing, who would receive the tragic news a day later, was heartbroken: "No! How is this possible? How could something like this happen? I don't believe it! Wasn't Xiaowan diagnosed with dual spiritual roots yesterday? Wasn't she said to be a genius? Wasn't she said to be protected? Why don't I believe it? I don't believe it!"
Village Chief Liu smoked a cigarette, his face somewhat helpless, and knocked on the table: "Xiao Qing, I know you are sad, but this is what the superiors told me over the phone, it's absolutely true! This matter is also an accident, no one can predict it, right? I know you are sad, and I am also very sorry that Xiao Wan didn't enjoy a good life and died so early, but there is nothing we can do!"
He glanced at the agitated Liu Xiaoqing and said, "Take my advice and don't cause trouble up there! This has nothing to do with the leaders. Who wants Xiaowan... You know her situation! She won't understand if you talk to her anyway, and children are naughty by nature. She might fall down by accident!"
The scenes of yesterday flashed through Liu Xiaoqing's mind, and she suddenly felt that Jiang Qianfeng had been urging her to sign the "Family Consent Form"!
She carefully scrutinized his eyes, his movements, his words, his demeanor. Something was wrong with him! Something was wrong! He was lying to her!
Liu Xiaoqing rushed out of the office, her eyes were dizzy, her blood was boiling, and she was vomiting blood.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, you all lied to me! You all lied to me, I must go to the ancestral hall to find out! I want to ask Jiang Qianfeng, it's clearly him, it's him!"
Village Chief Liu slammed the table in anger, foaming at the mouth. "What are you standing there for? Find someone to stop her! Why is this child so stubborn? Doesn't she understand what people say? Just like her silly sister!"
The group immediately went out to pull Liu Xiaoqing. Liu Xiaoqing screamed like crazy, attracting people around to come out to watch the fun. Yaozu and Ji Zongjia heard it and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, Xiaoqing, don't be too sad. How should I put it? It's just fate, right? Xiaowan may be destined but not blessed!"
"Yes, Xiao Wan might have been born with dementia, and being a girl, she couldn't handle such a great blessing, so she died young!"
"If such a blessing were to come to our family, it would surely bring honor to our ancestors. Don't you agree?"
Liu Xiaoqing couldn't stand their sarcasm any longer. She threw the staff away like crazy and spat at them fiercely: "Bah! Don't you even look at your own moral character! And you still say such things? What era is it and you still favor boys over girls? What right do you have to say that about our Xiaowan! You two are just two fat boys in your family. The fat on their faces can kill a fly!"
Years of grievances and resentment finally erupted. Like a madman, with disheveled hair, she loudly demanded, "What are you talking about! What bullshit are you talking about? I'm telling you, if Xiao Wan dies, I'll bury your entire village with her! What gives you the right to ridicule us sisters every day? You just bully us because we're girls, right? I'm telling you! I won't let you off easily! Xiao Wan, she will never die! Just wait! I'll definitely find Xiao Wan back!"
"If you come any closer, don't blame me for being rude!"
Liu Xiaoqing stared at the villagers in front of her vigilantly. They were just bullying her because she was cowardly and timid. From now on, for Xiaowan, she would never tolerate it again!
Because she has nothing to lose!
However, the villagers ignored her warning and took a few steps forward, only to be pelted with a talisman by the girl: "What the hell!"
The sharp-eyed people recognized it: "Oh no, it's the Fiery Flame Talisman!"
There was a loud "bang" and flames shot up into the sky. The fire around was extremely intense and the heat wave was rising towards the sky. Everyone's ears were deafened by the roar and many people had their arms burned!
Yaozu's father hated her and immediately shouted, "She's trying to run away!"
The others were too busy to catch up, so the two couples could only grit their teeth and look dejected: "She actually has such a good thing!"
“I still don’t know how it came about!”
Liu Xiaoqing couldn't hear their voices either, so she immediately went home and rummaged through her drawers and took all the spirit beads and weapons with her, ready to go to the town to seek justice!
"Who!" Her eyes were red and everyone looked like an enemy!
A middle-aged woman in lotus-red clothes appeared outside the window, her voice filled with worry: "Xiaoqing, it's me..."
Liu Xiaoqing lay powerlessly on the bed, holding Xiaowan's rabbit doll in her hand, pulling fiercely: "Aunt Zhang, are you here to stop me too? I don't believe Xiaowan is dead, I don't believe it... I want to go to the ancestral hall and ask for an explanation..."
The voice became weaker and weaker as it went on, almost losing its fighting spirit.
Aunt Zhang hugged the girl with heartache, touched her dry hair, looked at the blood at the corner of her mouth, her face was pale and haggard.
Finally, he turned his face away and made up his mind: "Xiaoqing, go to the mountain to find that female monk, maybe she can help you!"
Liu Xiaoqing instantly gained motivation, and her eyes, which had lost their luster, regained their focus: "Yes! I'll go find my benefactor!"
So, two days later, when she was about to starve to death, she found her benefactor.
She knelt down and kowtowed, her voice hoarse, like a cuckoo crying blood: "Please, benefactor, save my sister!"
