I have become an immortal, you want to take me to Buddhism?

Chapter 54 The White Ape
"Old man, I think you are a good monkey. Why don't you sell it to me at a price? I will give you 50 taels of silver."

After following the waiter to the old man's residence, Xu Xian asked the waiter to go and get busy while he and Qingmei looked for some topics to see if they could chat with the old man.

The business of the inn is not good these days. After all, in a place where accommodation fees are paid and security fees are paid, how can ordinary people be willing to stay?So the room arranged by the innkeeper for the old man was not bad, but a little shabby.

After Xu Xian took stock of the situation in the room, he took a few more glances at the monkey next to the old man, and then asked the old man.The monkey playing the old man is not like an ordinary monkey. It has no rope and its body is relatively large. It should be an ape, and it is covered in snow-white.

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"

After listening to Xu Xian's words, the old man did not say a word. He just looked at Xu Xian with a dull expression, and then looked at the white ape next to him, and had no other reaction.On the other hand, the white ape next to him brightened up after hearing this, stretched out his hand to push the old man next to him, and immediately shouted.

Obviously, this white ape is very understanding of human nature and can understand human speech.It wants the old man to sell himself and exchange money to live a good life.It seems that the relationship between the old monkey man and the white ape next to him is not just a tool to make money, otherwise the white ape would not react like this.

"It's all I have left. If it's gone, what's the use of having more silver?"

Buying a monkey for 50 taels of silver is actually very high.These days, the people of Changzhou City can't even sell a daughter for so much money.For example, the old man's granddaughter was just used by the government to pay for their security expenses.

However, to Xu Xian's surprise, after being pushed by Bai Yuan, the old man did not agree to Xu Xian's request, but refused.This also confirmed Xu Xian's guess that the old man didn't just use the white ape to make money.

"That's not necessarily true! Maybe the old man has money. When he leaves the city tomorrow, your granddaughter will be waiting outside the city. So having money is still very needed."

After looking at the despairing old man and then at the white ape beside him, Xu Xian smiled and replied.This white ape was quite special, and Xu Xian didn't know why it was willing to stay with the old man.

However, it is special after all, and staying with the old man will do no good to it or the old man.If he hadn't encountered it this time, it would most likely have caused greater trouble to the old man.Because there are many things in the world that cannot restrain it, but they can restrain the old man who plays the monkey.

"I wonder what the young master is going to do after buying Yuan Bai?"

After hearing Xu Xian's words, the eyes of the old monkey charmer immediately brightened. He hesitated for a moment, glanced at the white ape beside him who had been pushing him, looked at Queen Xu Xian carefully, and then asked.

Xu Xian is well-dressed, and at first glance he looks like a child from a wealthy family.If he comes forward, he may not be able to help him get his granddaughter back from the government.If this plus fifty cars of silver were added, he and his granddaughter would indeed be able to live well.

However, Yuan Bai has been with him for many years, and their relationship is no longer limited to the relationship between the monkey charmer and the monkey, but the same as the son of the old monkey charmer.In his heart, this white ape is as important as his granddaughter.

Therefore, he wanted to know what Xu Xian wanted to do by buying the white ape next to him.If it would endanger White Ape's life, he would rather not take 50 taels of silver than sell it.

"Don't worry, I won't harm it. This ape has become humane, and staying with you is not a good thing for it."

After hearing this, Xu Xian replied that he did not say how to arrange the purchase of the white ape.Because he also had this idea for a moment, he had not yet decided how to arrange the purchase of Bai Yuan.

At this time, the white ape next to the old man screamed again, and then shook the old man's arm.It seems that it is willing to be sold and then exchanged for the old man's future life guarantee. "Can my granddaughter really come back tomorrow?"

The old man glanced at the white ape next to him, then at Xu Xian, and asked after hesitation.Bai Yuan himself was willing to exchange, and with the possibility that his granddaughter would come back, the old man's heart finally moved.However, he needs a definite answer now, and he is afraid that everything will be empty when the deal is completed.

"Where were you planning to go?"

After hearing what the old man said, Xu Xian did not answer his question directly, but asked where the old man was.

Cheung Chau County is not safe for the elderly.Even if his granddaughter comes back, she can't go back to the old man directly, let alone the inn, so Xu Xian wants to know where the old man is going to go next.

"We don't have an exact place to go, we just go wherever we go. We can't stay in Changzhou City, so we plan to continue south through Qingfeng Mountain to visit Jiangnan. We just heard that Qingfeng Mountain has been plagued by bandits recently, so we entered Changzhou City. Zhoucheng.”

The old man looked at Xu Xian doubtfully, not understanding what Xu Xian meant by asking this.However, after hesitating for a while, he still expressed his plan.

If it weren't for the banditry in Qingfeng Mountain, they wouldn't have entered Changzhou County, let alone stayed one more night.Who would have known that just for one more night, I didn't make any money, and even got my granddaughter involved.

"Well, then you can leave the city and go south early tomorrow morning. There is no banditry in Qingfeng Mountain now and the roads are open. You should be able to see your granddaughter at the entrance of Qingfeng Mountain by then."

After confirming the old man's whereabouts, Xu Xian pondered for a while and replied.The old man's granddaughter was just taken away and is still safe.If nothing else happens, he should be able to see his granddaughter tomorrow morning.

Of course, this was the reason why he took action. If he didn't care and the white ape next to the old man took action, the result might be different.

"Okay, then I will give Yuan Bai to the young master. I hope the young master will treat it well."

The old man glanced at the white ape beside him, and then slowly stroked the white ape's hair. After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, and reluctantly sold the white ape to Xu Xian.

Xu Xian didn't say anything more. After asking Qingmei on the side to give the silver to the old man, he called Bai Yuan and left the old man's room.Bai Yuan glanced at the old man and reluctantly followed Xu Xian away.

Qingmei on the side looked at its reaction and then looked at her young master without saying anything. 50 taels of silver is nothing to my young master.When we were at Qingfeng Mountain before, Hong Luan sent much more money than this, but my son didn't take any of it.

"Sir, are you going out at night?"

After taking Bai Yuan to his residence, Qingmei, who followed in at this time, asked curiously.Right now there are only her, Xu Xian, and a white ape, so there is no need to worry about others knowing when asking this Qingmei.

Although this white ape understands human nature, it may not understand the meaning of his question.After my son has gained some cultivation, he seems to have become nosy, which was not the case before.In the past, my son would only consider helping others unless he was sure that he would be fine.
