Chapter 124: Spendthrift
While the two were talking, Lu Huai flew over from a distance with his spiritual sword.
He stopped right in front of the two of them and put away the spirit sword in a handsome manner.
Nan Xiao blinked and looked at him with a puzzled look: "Hey, why didn't the Fifth Elder keep me here today?"
Some time ago, we had to practice until late at night before the Fifth Elder would let us go.
Lu Huai raised his chin, his eyes sparkling as if they contained stars, with a smug expression, as if begging for praise: "I've been performing well recently, so I specially asked the Fifth Elder for permission to skip extra practice today."
Nan Xiao understood immediately and perfunctorily praised: "Wow, that's amazing."
Usually when Lu Huai shows such an expression, the subtext is to praise him, saying that his personality is like that of a child, pure and simple.
Although Nan Xiao's praise was perfunctory, Lu Huai also benefited from it.
He said proudly, "Of course. Don't you see who I am? I'm the Fifth Elder's favorite disciple. Fourth Brother is not so good. He always slacks off during training. He's been severely punished by the elders recently."
While Lu Huai was boasting about himself, he also did not forget to criticize Su Xun.
At this time, Su Xun, who was training at Jianfeng, sneezed twice without any warning.
He muttered, "Who is talking about him?"
As soon as he stopped, a sword energy came quickly from behind.
The fifth elder said angrily: "Su Xun, you are lazy again, hurry up and practice. If you can't practice this move well, you won't be able to rest."
Su Xun dodged the sword energy with great effort and said with a sad face:
"Fifth Elder, we've been practicing for three days. Let me take a break."
The fifth elder scolded him, "How dare you say that? Xiaolu trained with you at the same time, and he's already mastered it, but you, as his senior brother, haven't learned it yet. How can you be so ashamed? Hurry up and practice, and don't be lazy."
"Yes~"
Su Xun had never missed his third senior brother so much as he did at this moment.
He no longer despised his third senior brother for being reckless. It turned out that having someone to accompany him in taking punishment and skipping classes was such a happy thing.
Third brother, please come out of seclusion. I need you to be punished.
······
Lu Huai and Nan Xiao were talking when Gu An came up to them at an inopportune time.
He said tentatively, "Junior Sister Nan, how about you find someone to help me clean the yard, and then you two can talk?"
It's really embarrassing for him to be left here.
Lu Huai's smile faded. Seeing his frown, he said unhappily, "Don't you have any hands? You have to trouble others for such a small matter. If you are not used to living here, go back to your sect as soon as possible."
He still remembered how the people from the Tianjian Sect bullied Xiaoxiao.
He disliked neither the elders of the Tianjian Sect nor Chen Chaochao and Song Hui. The man in front of him had a shifty look on his face and it was obvious that he was not a good person.
Although he was on the road and heard that this person had some relationship with Xiaoxiao, and now he had the audacity to stay in their sect, it was even more annoying.
It’s good enough that he didn’t come to set fire secretly in the middle of the night. You still expect him to be nice to the people from the Tianjian Sect. You’re dreaming.
Gu An: “…”
No, he didn't provoke her, did he? This was their first meeting, so why was there so much hostility?
But he chose to forget that he was quite hostile when he first met Nan Xiao.
There was no way, Gu An could only look at Nan Xiao with a pleading look, as if to say: You took my spirit stones, you can't do this.
In the past, he would have definitely quarreled or fought with this kid, but not now. For the sake of his own life, he had to endure it.
Just a few months.
Nan Xiao received the signal from him, pulled Lu Huai's sleeve, and said, "This is a guest, be nicer."
Lu Huai was about to retort, but when he heard Nan Xiao's next words, his disdainful attitude faded a little.
She said, "This guy is rich. I just gave him 200,000 spirit stones. I'll give you half of it when I get back."
After saying that, Nan Xiao took out a cleaning talisman and threw it out, and all the dust and fallen leaves in the yard were taken away.
She said: "We can only do so much, the furniture and the roof, we have to figure it out and fix it ourselves."
Gu An: “…”
In the end, Nan Xiao and Lu Huai left happily together, leaving Gu An alone to face the dilapidated yard.
········
Nan Xiao and the other person returned to the yard and sat on the ground with Lu Huai to divide the spirit stones.
She gave out half of the spirit stones and reminded him, "This is 100,000 spirit stones. Take it and don't buy everything you see. Only buy what you need."
Lu Huai kept crying poor, so she was a little curious about where his spirit stones had gone.
Not to mention, she would give him gold coins from time to time, and the sect would also distribute spirit stones and cultivation resources to the disciples every month, not to mention that as the youngest junior brother, several senior brothers would also give him extra subsidies from time to time.
Besides, his pills and talismans don’t cost money.
The word "poor" will never be associated with him.
Later she found out that this guy was completely taken advantage of, and now in the small town at the foot of the mountain, the owners of all the stalls, big and small, liked him the most.
Lu Huai retorted: "But I bought things I need."
Nan Xiao rubbed her temples. She had to correct his habit of spending money recklessly.
She pointed to a string of wind chimes under the eaves and said, "Then can you explain what this thing is used for?"
"The boss said this can prevent evil spirits from entering dreams. It's a rare magical weapon."
"What is this fan used for?"
Lu Huai answered seriously: "It's used to fan and light the fire."
"The boss said that as long as there's even a little spark, it can set the whole field ablaze in an instant."
Nan Xiao: “…”
"So? Have you forgotten that you have wind spiritual roots and can't use them at all?"
Lu Huai replied: "I know, that's why I bought it for you."
He began to explain seriously: "Look, Xiaoxiao, your fighting ability is so weak, you need to prepare more self-defense items. This fan is in perfect harmony with your fire spirit root. If anyone offends you in the future, you can secretly light a fire and fan his house with this fan, and it will quickly burn down his house."
Nan Xiao: “…”
"Who taught you all this?"
Lu Huai answered immediately: "The boss who sells fans."
Nan Xiao: “…”
The fist is hard.
"If you use spirit stones to buy these random things again, don't expect me to give you spirit stones anymore. Go and starve."
Lu Huai felt Nan Xiao's rising anger and didn't dare to speak: "Oh~"
Nan Xiao said angrily: "Get out of here quickly, or I'm afraid I won't be able to help but beat you later."
"Hehe, Xiaoxiao, don't be angry. I won't buy random things in the future." Lu Huai ran away with the spirit stones in his pockets in a clean and neat movement.
The three people's yards were adjacent to each other. Qiao Yue had just come back from outside and happened to see Nan Xiao telling Lu Huai to get out.
Lu Huai said hello to Qiao Yue and went back to his yard to practice.
Qiao Yue walked into Nan Xiao's room and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Did my junior brother make you angry again?"
"Well, I'm not angry, it's just that he keeps wasting spirit stones on buying unnecessary things." To Nan Xiao, this behavior is definitely a waste of money.
"But aren't these all bought for you? Look at us, the senior brothers and sisters, who received a gift from our junior brother?"
