Fairy spare

In a few days, it will be the Lunar New Year.

At this moment, Ruan Li couldn't remember how long it had been since he had a lively Chinese New Year with his family. The last time was in the village of Dianliangdu!

On the road of spiritual practice, time is like running water, and it will pass by if you don’t pay attention!
On the way to Lin'an capital, the carriage passed through Fengyang County. The Spring Festival was approaching, and the market in the town was very lively. The stalls were filled with festive items, and the faces of the people buying new year's goods were filled with joy that the festival was approaching.

No matter when it is, the Spring Festival is the most important day for the people in the human realm.

Because we say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, because spring is the season with the strongest vitality.

At a stall selling steamed buns, the carriage slowly stopped not far away. Ruan Li did not get out of the car, but just stared at the stall quietly.

It all seems like just yesterday, when she, Senior Brother Jinyang, and Ruan Heng sneaked down the mountain and ate buns at this bun stall, and then were guided by the stall owner to Huilin Garden in Fengyang County!
The stall owner is still the same enthusiastic man, just older.

"Sister, do you want to eat meat buns?"

When Ruan Ran saw this, he couldn't help but asked curiously.

A casual question once again brought up the memory buried deep in her heart.

She will never see the person who wants to eat meat buns again...

"Sister, do you want to eat? I'll buy two. It looks like the business is good, it should be delicious!" Ruan Duo was sitting outside the carport and yelled. Just now he was curious about why his sister asked him to park the car in this position.

"If you don't want to eat, let's go." Ruan Li said slowly and closed the window of the carport.

Ruan Ran looked at her sister and felt that she was worried, but she knew that her sister had never really come out since the incident that happened to the Tiangui Sect.

She didn't speak, she just silently approached her sister, rested her head on her shoulder, and hugged her arm tightly!

Ruan Li couldn't help but smile softly when he saw this. He raised his hand and touched his sister's delicate cheek. At this time, he felt a rare calm in his heart.

Unexpectedly, not long after leaving, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Ruan Duo's falsely alarmed voice came from outside the carriage shed: "Scared me!"

"What's wrong, Aduo?"

Ruan Li opened the curtain and poked his head out, and saw Ruan Duo raising his chin towards the restaurant in front of him: "Just now a group of beggars suddenly jumped out from the other side of the road, and we almost ran into them!"

Taking a closer look, the restaurant in front is giving out fish cakes to beggars. It seems to be a New Year custom. Doing more good deeds will bring smooth sailing and prosperous business next year, so almost all restaurants will do this on the eve of the Spring Festival, in order to gain good fortune. Luck.

The beggars stopped robbing at this time and went from one house to the next. The Spring Festival is also the happiest day of the year for them.

Because I can eat fresh and clean food.

"It's okay, sister, close the curtain quickly, be careful of the wind getting in." Ruan Duo said, shook the reins and continued on the road!
The carriage drove smoothly past the restaurants on the street. The beggars received the hot fish cakes and couldn't wait to eat them.

"It's so fragrant!"

Erya ate one in two bites, licked his fingers with satisfaction, raised his head, and saw an untouched fish cake handed to him.

He was stunned: "Brother, you eat!"

He pushed the fish cake back, and Ruan Yuze said calmly: "Brother, I can't eat fish. I will get red bumps all over my body after eating it. You can eat it."

"Really?" Erya was doubtful.

"Ah."

In this case, Erya was not polite. After taking it, he started to eat it with big mouthfuls. While eating, he said: "We will go to other restaurants later. I will give you whatever you like to eat!"

Ruan Yu nodded. He seemed to be used to this kind of life. He and Er Ya wandered around the town every day, just to find something to eat to prevent him from starving to death. At night, the two of them slept together to avoid freezing to death.

Of course, there is no way to compare with his days in Ruan Mansion. No matter how bad he is, he is still the eldest son of the head of the Ruan family.

But he has no regrets. He left the Ruan family not because he was angry, but because he was unwilling to do so.

Looking back, Ruan Yu looked far and wide at the majestic mountain range in the distance, which was Tiangui Mountain.

So he didn't come to Fengyang Town by accident at all, but had a clear purpose early in the morning. This is the town closest to Tiangui Mountain!

Since no one can help him, he can only rely on himself. Unless Senior Li personally says that he has no hope, he will never give up!
But now, he needs to wait for a chance to see Senior Li.

"Brother, let's go!"

Erya held his hand, not knowing what he was thinking at all, and was simply excited for the next meal: "Let's go to Yuxing Tower!"

The carriage did not stop for a moment, and finally arrived at Lin'an City near dusk.

They temporarily settled in a monk's inn. The three siblings came simply to buy new year's goods. Lin'an had good things, so they crossed over to Fengyang Town instead of the nearest.

"It would be great if Liuli could come."

After jumping out of the car, Ruan Duo couldn't help but muttered regretfully.

Ruan Ran glanced at him and said, "Didn't my sister tell me that Liuli can only stay in the village? You must not take her out of the village."

"I know, I just said it casually." Ruan Duo smiled and led the carriage to settle down in the backyard of the inn.

Ruan Li and Ruan Ran entered the inn directly.

"How many guests are there?"

"Three of you, I want two upper rooms."

"No problem, sir, please register first."

register?

Ruan Ran frowned slightly. She often came to La'an City to buy things, and sometimes she would stay overnight in an inn. She had never heard of anyone having to register.

This is not the first time she has come to this inn.

Ruan Li was also a little confused.

"Why do you need to register all of a sudden?"

Seeing the reaction of the two people, the innkeeper said quickly: "Guests should know about the two tragedies of Tiangui Sect and Beixu Sword Sect before, right? The emperor was furious and sent people to conduct a thorough investigation. All the inns in Tiangui City are occupied by us today. Everyone must be registered in the register. It’s convenient for the guest officer to be burdened. If there are any omissions, we will be severely fined!”

That's it!

Ruan Li picked up the pen and started writing without saying a word.

The registration book must not only record the name, age and gender, but also indicate where they are from and where they are going.

If you are a disciple of a sect, you must clearly indicate your sect!
When the shopkeeper saw Ruan Li writing "Disciple of Tiangui Sect", his expression was slightly startled. Didn't what he just said reveal the scars of this little fairy?
"It turns out to be a fairy from the Tiangui Sect, please come with me." The shopkeeper smiled slightly awkwardly, turned around and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and led the two of them to the guest room on the second floor!
"Sister, let's go out for a walk later. I want to buy some fireworks."

"How old are you? You still like to watch fireworks."

"The Chinese New Year is so festive, and the fireworks are so beautiful. Mom likes them too!"

"You and A'duo will go shopping for a while. I have something to do and will come look for you later."

"Okay, let's meet at Chunjiang Tower in the evening. The food here is very delicious." After leaving the inn, Ruan Li went straight to the Lin'an Duhui Forest Garden headquarters. If her preserved swan egg If she doesn't take action, she will break out of her shell, so she takes the initiative to follow this line of work.

The headquarters of Huilin Garden is located in the most prosperous place in the capital of Lin'an, and the entire door still has a sense of tranquility and otherworldliness. In the bustling street, it seems as if it is quiet and deaf to what is happening outside the window. place!

After entering the door, someone still took the initiative to greet them. The process was almost exactly the same as that of Liyang Duhui Forest Garden.

When he learned that what Ruan Li wanted to sell was a swan egg, the middle-aged man in charge of the reception remained calm and relaxed. He had obviously seen big scenes.

"Where did the fairy find this treasure?"

"In the Yuelu Mountains of Liyang City."

The other party nodded in understanding, looked at it for a long time, and then murmured: "It's really a very spiritual thing. Fairy, wait a moment, I'll be right back."

The man came back with a book in his hand. This was exactly the same as the man from Duhui Forest Park in Liyang. Ruan Li didn't ask because she knew what the other person was doing.

After comparing the prices of swan eggs auctioned by Huilin Garden in the past, the man finally looked up at Ruan Li and said, "Fairy, we are willing to pay 25 spiritual stones for this swan egg, how about it?"

25, which is a full [-] more than the Huilin Garden in Liyang City.

Lin'an is the imperial capital after all, so it seems that her decision was right!

The successful move was able to settle the matter that had been put on hold for her.

Unexpectedly, the man's sharp eyes caught the eye of the Moon Shadow Bracelet on Ruan Li's wrist.

"This spiritual bracelet on the fairy's hand is very extraordinary. If you want to take action, I am willing to give you 40 spiritual stones!" The man suddenly said.

Ruan Li was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched the Moon Shadow Bracelet on her wrist. It was a meeting gift given to her by Sister Furong, a medium-grade magic weapon.

This magic weapon seems to be just a piece of jewelry, but in fact it is of great help to her on the road of spiritual practice. The Moon Shadow Bracelet is a kind of magic weapon that moisturizes things silently. Because its spiritual energy is continuous and very mellow, wearing it on her body will make her feel non-stop. to send spiritual energy into her body.

So since receiving this gift, she has not taken it off for a moment!
"This is a gift from others, I won't sell it." Ruan Li responded with a slight smile.

The man nodded with pity on his face, but he could also see that Ruan Li was not an ordinary person. Just from the bracelet on her hand, one could guess her identity.

"Fairy, let me ask a few more words. You must be the genius of the Tiangui Sect, right?"

Ruan Li was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect that the other party could guess right.

Seeing her reaction, the man smiled and said: "I have been here in Huilin Garden for almost two hundred years, and I have seen countless people. Judging from the girl's stature and bearing, I just took a bold guess."

He looked like a middle-aged man, but he didn't expect that he was already two hundred years old.

"Senior's guess is correct, I am the Tiangui sect's genius Ruan Li." Ruan Li said bluntly!
"It is also very rare for sect geniuses to come to our Hui Forest Garden to sell goods." The man sighed with emotion, and then extended an invitation: "The second auction of our main garden this year will be tomorrow. If the fairy is free, you might as well come and join us. lively."

It's better to come early than to come early.

Ruan Li asked curiously: "Is this a high-quality treasure?"

"We keep the treasures auctioned secret, but don't worry, Fairy, there is nothing that can be put on the auction stage in our main garden."

In this way, Ruan Li is really interested. The main purpose of her trip is to get rid of the swan eggs. As for buying new year's goods, Amaranth and Aduo, tomorrow will be a good time to join in the fun.

"Thank you, senior. I will definitely come if I have time." Ruan Li bowed his hands in a gesture.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, and a man came slowly waving a folding fan: "Since the fairy is the genius of the Tiangui Sect, how dare we, Huilin Garden, neglect her?"

Ruan Li looked up and saw the man dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, rich and gorgeous, with a delicate and handsome face. Even the white jade pendant hanging on the handle of the folding fan in his hand exuded the spiritual power that can only be found in a middle-grade magical weapon.

At a glance, one can tell that this person has an extraordinary status.

"I've met the young master's family." The man quickly stood up and saluted respectfully.

Huilinyuan Shaodong's family, Yu Shangnian!

Ruan Li nodded slightly as a greeting.

Yu Shangnian put away the folding fan in his hand and took out a golden invitation: "Fairy, be your guest!"

"This is it?" Ruan Li looked confused.

The man beside him hurriedly explained: "Fairy, this is an invitation for domestic guests from our Huilin Garden. They can enjoy an independent private room with the best view. There are only eight places for domestic guests in the entire auction house."

Ruan Li hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it.

The other party offered to give it, why wouldn’t she want it?
"Thank you." But I still said thank you!
Yu Shangnian smiled and asked, "I wonder where the fairy will stay? Our Huilin Garden can send a carriage to pick her up in person tomorrow."

"Dawn Inn!"

After Ruan Li left, the man finally couldn't help but say: "Didn't the young master's family have already decided on the position of the guests? Even if this little fairy has a noble status, it's not easy to handle!"

"Noble? It's more than just noble." Yu Shangnian said meaningfully: "You don't have to worry about the rest. Pay more attention to Fairy Ruan Li tomorrow. If necessary, you can open the red door for her!"

The man was even more shocked. The young master was actually willing to take the initiative to open a red door for this little fairy?

And Yu Shangnian seemed to know it well, with a meaningful expression in his eyes.

I returned to the inn in the evening and was preparing to rest when there was a sudden commotion on the road.

Not long after, the commotion spread into the inn, and chaotic footsteps sounded from the stairs. There were at least a dozen people!

The next second, there was a knock on the door from almost all rooms at the same time.

"Open the door, Heyun Palace is in charge!"

Inside the house, Ruan Li and Ruan Ran couldn't help but look at each other, but after hearing the words Heyundian, Ruan Li took the initiative to step forward and open the door.

The person outside the door was wearing the clothes of Heyundian and holding two pieces of paper in his hand. It was the information that Ruan Li and Ruan Ran registered when they checked into the inn.

"A disciple of Tiangui Sect?"

When the man compared Ruan Li's information and found that she was a disciple of the Tiangui Sect, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Ruan Li nodded in agreement, and the man only looked at one more thing and didn't ask any more questions.

But at this time, someone slowly walked up from the first floor. The man was wearing a brown stand-up collared robe with white clouds embroidered on it. His face was gloomy and his temperament was rigorous, exactly like Ruan Li's impression. .

"Deacon Xianghai?"

Goodbye, it’s been six years!

Xianghai looked at Ruan Li and was stunned for a moment. She changed a little, but she still recognized him quickly.

"Fairy Ruan Li?"

Ruan Li smiled and walked out of the room to greet him: "Long time no see, I didn't expect to meet senior in the inn."

Xianghai looked at the subordinates around him and sighed helplessly: "Because of those two incidents, the Emperor was furious and arresting the rebellious monks has always been the main task of our Heyundian Temple. All branches of Heyundian Temple in various places have been strictly investigated. Death order, but I think the fairy also knows that there are very few clues, so we can only investigate like headless flies day by day."
