Fairy spare

Chapter 85 Little Beggar?
After saying that, the housekeeper took out all the copper coins from the money bag and handed them to the boy beside him, asking him to distribute them nearby, thus attracting these little beggars blocking the way.

Ruan Li was not afraid, but she was a little surprised that so many little beggars appeared all at once.

The capitals outside Tiangui City have always been places of suffering. Ruan Li knew that there were not many wealthy families like the Gao family.

"Miss, let's go in and take a look." The housekeeper changed his title and spoke naturally.

Ruan Li looked away, nodded with a smile, and stepped up the steps.

There are not many people in this shop, and it is not comparable to the Wanbao Pavilion in Lin'an City.Ruan Li could almost see all the so-called treasures on display with just one glance.

"Miss, what kind of good things do you want to buy?" The shopkeeper in the store saw that Ruan Li was not young, so he guessed that she was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, and hurriedly stepped forward and said attentively: "There are some new ones in the store. Fine jewelry are all magical instruments with spiritual energy, miss, take a look?"

Ruan Li shook his head, and said in a soft and gentle tone, "I want to find two ambergris for medicinal purposes."

Ruan Li looked calm, but the housekeeper on the side was worried, because if there wasn't something here yet, the little fairy wouldn't be able to buy what she wanted.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he said: "Miss is here, I really have a plant in my shop."

Hearing this, Ruan Li and the housekeeper looked at each other, their eyes filled with joy.

The housekeeper also said excitedly: "Miss, you are lucky, you really found it."

The shopkeeper hurriedly found a black brocade box, and after opening it, the ambergris was lying inside.

Although the size is smaller and the color is average, there is no doubt that it is ambergris.

only……

Ruan Li looked at the shopkeeper and asked: "Is there any extra? I need two..."

The shopkeeper smiled coquettishly, shook his head and said, "No, it's just this one. A little Taoist priest passed by our Baichuan capital a few days ago and came to pawn it with me."

The housekeeper on the side gently tugged on Ruan Li's sleeve and whispered: "Miss, it's good to find one."

It's better than leaving empty-handed.

Ruan Li nodded. The shopkeeper said there was no more. Naturally, she couldn't force anyone to do anything, so she asked, "How much silver?"

The shopkeeper stretched out a palm and smiled: "Not many, fifty spirit stones!"

Ruan Li frowned. This ambergris was not a rare and valuable thing in Lin'an. In a barren land like Baichuandu, one plant cost fifty spiritual stones!
"It's more expensive."

At this time, the housekeeper on the side suddenly spoke: "Miss, forget it, we are not here to save lives. These fifty spiritual stones are not a small amount."

The housekeeper was still afraid that Ruan Li, a cultivator of immortality, would not understand the bargaining methods of this mortal world. Little did he know that in the years after leaving the Ruan family, what she had to do every day was to bargain with the vendors in the market.

"That's right, that's all." Ruan Li shook his head and turned to leave.

The shopkeeper thought that the person in front of him was from a wealthy family, so he thought that if he opened his mouth wider, he would be able to seal the deal. However, he was scared away as soon as he heard this.

He immediately blocked his path and said, "Miss, please don't leave in a hurry. I'll give you some benefits."

"25 spirit stones." Ruan Li said directly.

The rules of the world are cut in half when you meet!
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper was afraid that the business would be ruined, so he gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, deal done!"

Ruan Li gritted his teeth in frustration: Why didn't you say ten!
After getting this ambergris, the housekeeper couldn't help but say after stepping out of the shop: "The little fairy is so powerful, I was thinking that forty would be enough."

"It's not a very valuable thing." Ruan Li said: "And he said that this ambergris was harvested a few days ago, but I saw that this plant was withering and it would die soon. I guess the person who pawned it was I got it a long time ago.”

Although it is a spiritual plant, it will die if left out of the soil for a long time.

The butler nodded when he heard this, with a learned expression.

Ruan Li glanced at the sky. It was still early at noon, and she only found one ambergris. It was a pity to go back now.

"Butler, is there really no other place to look for?" Ruan Li asked, unwilling to give up.

The housekeeper shook his head: "The little immortal has also seen that our land is bounded by hundreds of rivers, and it takes a lot of trouble to even find one."

Seeing this, Ruan Li didn't force it, as a single plant could play a role, so even if her trip was not in vain.

Just as he was about to cross the road and get on the carriage, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The two of them paused for a moment, then looked down and saw another little beggar.

"Didn't I just give you copper coins?" The housekeeper immediately said, trying to drive the beggar away.

All the copper coins on his body have been taken out just now, and there is not a single one left.

It is obviously impossible to give money to a beggar.

The boy behind him was about to take action when he saw this, but Ruan Li raised his hand to stop him.

The little beggar's hair was disheveled, oily and long, but there was less dirt on his face than those of the people just now, and his appearance could be seen more or less clearly.

Ruan Li could tell that it was a little girl.

She raised her head and looked at Ruan Li intently. She held the air in her dirty hands and raised it high in front of Ruan Li, making a begging gesture.

Naturally, Ruan Li had no silver, let alone copper coins.

Then, Ruan Li stretched out his fist and placed it in the little girl's hands. He opened his fist and a spiritual stone slipped quietly.

But with this action, others couldn't see what Ruan Li gave the little girl.

The little girl grabbed it and quickly put her hands behind her back, as if she was afraid that Ruan Li would regret it.

The light in his eyes became brighter, and a clear voice sounded: "Thank you, miss!"

Ruan Li smiled slightly and suddenly possessed the little girl's ear. The little girl subconsciously wanted to hide back, but she only heard Ruan Li whisper softly: "The thing on your neck is exposed, remember to hide it next time." .”

The little girl was startled and looked down. The thing hanging around her neck was not completely exposed, but only a few bits were exposed through the collar. It was impossible to see it unless you looked carefully.

She still pulled the neckline tightly to cover the thing.

Seeing this, Ruan Li didn't say anything, because although she had only seen a corner of it just now, she had already seen that it was a space ring.

A little beggar will have a space ring, and she has not sold it even though she is begging for food. It must be something very important to her.

You must know that although a space ring is only the most common magic weapon, if it is sold, it can also make her, a little girl, have no worries about food and drink.

"Thank you, Miss, for reminding me." The little girl's voice changed slightly, showing some anxiety and nervousness.

Ruan Li didn't say much else, and was about to leave her, when the little girl suddenly asked, "Did you buy what you wanted?"

Ruan Li paused and looked sideways at her.

She blinked, her eyes clear and serious.

At the end, Ruan Li slowly knelt down to look level with him, and then said: "I need an ambergris, do you have one?"

The little girl's hand covering her collar moved slightly, and she nodded imperceptibly, but said nothing.

Others couldn't see anything, but Ruan Li sighed at the intelligence of this little girl, every move she made was telling herself that she couldn't take out the ambergris in this place.

After all, she is a beggar now.

Or, the situation of the two is the same, they have to play another identity out of necessity?
Ruan Li didn't have time to think deeply, so he just said: "To the east of the city, Gaofu."

The little girl whispered: "There is a ruined temple two miles outside the city in the north, under the buttocks of the Buddha statue."

Ruan Li raised his eyebrows at her as a sign of agreement.

In an interaction that could not be seen or heard by others, the two seemed to have fulfilled some agreement.

Or a transaction?

The little girl turned around and ran away immediately, Ruan Li got up and didn't say anything more, got into the carriage with the butler with an incomprehensible face, and went straight back to Gao's house.

"Junior Sister!"

As soon as they returned to the guest courtyard, several people who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward.

Nangong Luo asked: "But it went well, didn't anything else happen?"

Ruan Li shook his head: "No, it's just that this ambergris is hard to find. I only found one plant in the huge river city, and the color is not very good."

Saying that, Ruan Li took out the ambergris, Nangong Luo checked it, and said: "It can be used, one plant is fine!"

"But..." Ruan Li suddenly spoke again, and slowly said under the doubtful eyes of several people: "There may be a second one, let's see if it can be delivered in the afternoon."

Hearing this, several people couldn't help but looked at each other in blank dismay.

What does this mean?
