Chapter 16: Rescue
"Girl, don't do that. ”
Ji Fan hurriedly turned around and wanted to help the woman in the blue dress up.
"Please save me!"
The woman in the blue dress insisted on refusing to get up, she sobbed and said: "Childe, the little woman is not the one who is willing to fall, she is only coerced to fall into the dust, if the son is willing to save me from the sea of suffering, I am willing to be a slave and a spleen, and serve the son for life." ”
"Even if I have the heart to save you, I'm afraid I can't do anything!"
Ji Fan is not the kind of person whose kindness is extremely overflowing, and of course he is not a hard-hearted person, he knows that there are too many poor and weak people on the Tianchen Continent, and he can't save them if he wants to.
"Childe, the little girl was originally from the royal city, but her father caused trouble because he offended the powerful, so he ended up with a ruined family. ”
The woman in the blue dress said with tears in her eyes: "Although the little girl survived, she was sold to a remote place like Bailian City as a maiko, and I hope that the son will have mercy." ”
"Isn't the law of the nations of the human race strictly forbidden, forbidding, and forcing the good to become prostitutes?"
Ji Fan said suspiciously: "The bigger the city, the stricter the enforcement of the law, even the powerful people dare to defy the law, how can you be sold here?"
"In the eyes of many powerful people, the law is just child's play. ”
The woman in the blue dress said sadly: "My father was originally the master of the laws of the Miaoxiang Kingdom, and it is precisely because of his upright nature and strict law enforcement that he will offend the traitors and magnates. ”
"Oh?"
Ji Fan was skeptical, and then asked, "Can you tell Ling Zun's name?"
"Father's ......"
The woman in the blue dress paused obviously and said: "My father's name is Tao Gongming, and the little woman was originally called Tao Yuyan, and now 'Ping'er' is a fake name." ”
"Tao Gongming?"
Ji Fan touched his chin and thought for a moment, rummaged through his memory for a long time, and really remembered a person named Tao Gongming.
Tao Gongming is indeed a native of the Miaoxiang Kingdom, and he is indeed a law enforcement official of the Miaoxiang Kingdom, the official rank is very high, although he is a civil official, but in fact he also has a very high cultivation, and he is one of the famous big names in the royal city.
As the woman in the blue dress said, Tao Gongming has a strong temperament, jealousy and hatred, even if powerful people violate the law and commit crimes, he will severely punish him, and he will show no mercy.
Tao Gongming offended too powerful, and was finally framed, angering His Majesty the King of Miaoxiang Kingdom, and ending up with a ruined family.
Ji Fan in his previous life has read too many books, and celebrity biographies are his favorite, including a book that briefly introduces Tao Gongming, but it does not mention that Tao Gongming has a daughter named Tao Yuyan.
"Dare to ask the girl how old she is?"
After groaning, Ji Fan asked.
"Yu Yan has just turned sixteen. ”
The woman in the blue dress replied.
"If I remember correctly, Tao Gongming was beheaded fifteen years ago, when he was one hundred and thirty years old, and you were only a one-year-old baby. ”
Ji Fan said without waves: "He only married one room in his life, and because his wife had a stubborn illness, he only gave birth to one child, and he was also a son." His wife died when he was seventy years old, and he was upright and devoted to his feelings, so he did not marry again, so where did you come from, girl?"
"Uh...... Childe also knows about his father. ”
The woman in the blue dress looked surprised, as if she didn't expect Ji Fan to know Tao Gongming at all, but after a while, her face returned to normal, and explained: "My mother is just a slave in the Tao family, and in the last year of my father's life, she was tired of all kinds of complicated things, and often drank alone, while my mother has been serving on the side......"
"Finally one time, your father got drunk, and then because he missed his deceased wife too much, he took your mother as his deceased wife, and then he got drunk and got out of control, and finally had you, right?"
Without waiting for the woman in the blue dress to finish speaking, Ji Fan took over.
"It's a bit like a story in a book, but that's exactly what it is. ”
The woman in the blue dress nodded.
"I remember that when Tao Gongming was eighty years old, he was already a powerhouse in the Star Soul Realm, and he rarely drank alcohol in his life, so he didn't get drunk easily. ”
Ji Fan shook his head and smiled, and said, "Even if he insists on getting himself drunk and cultivating to his level, it is impossible for him to get out of control after drinking, unless he himself has affection for your mother." ”
"Perhaps, as Childe said, my mother and father have been together for many years, and it is not impossible to fall in love over time. ”
The woman in the blue dress looked at Ji Fan and said sincerely: "I know that Gongzi has suspicions, but I was too young back then, and I really can't explain many things." ”
Ji Fan also made a difficulty-
If this woman is really Tao Gongming's daughter, then he must have tried to save her, not because he was sympathetic, but because he admired Tao Gongming very much.
But there are many doubts about this woman's words, and it is very likely that she is lying about Tao Gongming's story in order to win his sympathy.
"Childe doesn't have to be embarrassed, if it's really inconvenient, the right to be a little girl didn't say it. ”
The woman in the blue dress stood up, and her pretty cheeks, which were still a little immature, were obviously a little more stubborn.
"If it were to redeem you, how many Star Coins would you need?"
Ji Fan still relented, he felt that no matter whether this woman was Tao Gongming's daughter or not, at least it was certain that she was a poor girl.
"I've heard the proprietress say that I have to stay here for twenty years before I can regain my freedom, and if anyone wants to redeem me, all I need to do is come up with the number of Star Coins I can earn in twenty years. ”
The woman in the blue dress's eyes lit up, knowing that her plan had worked.
She has been coming to this Piaoxiang Garden for a few days, and in the past few days, she has been practicing dancing until her dancing skills are small, and she is sent out to pick up guests tonight.
She had already thought that if she met someone who looked good-faced tonight, she would beg someone to save her.
Just now she saw that Ji Fan was not only generous and good-looking, but also did not have any indecent behavior towards her, which gave her every reason to think that this was a good opportunity.
"How many Star Coins can you make in a year?"
Ji Fan followed and asked.
"I don't know how much I can earn, but the other sisters have said that they can make about 50,000 or six star coins a year here. ”
The woman in the blue dress finally became nervous, she had been observing Ji Fan's face, worried that this young boy would not be able to take out too many star coins.
"Even if it's 50,000 a year, you need 100 star coins for 20 years, which is not a small amount!"
After Ji Fan calculated, a pair of sword eyebrows couldn't help but screw together.
He was able to take out a million star coins, but after taking them out, there were not many star coins left, and his cultivation still needed a lot of star coins to support.
"Childe, relax your mind, this star coin is borrowed by Yu Yan. ”
The woman in the blue skirt was afraid that Ji Fan would change her hexagram, so she hit the railroad while it was hot: "After all, my father was a law enforcement officer, and he was still a strong man with a high cultivation, and he left an inheritance for future generations, as long as I can return to the royal city, I can get that inheritance, and I will definitely repay the great kindness of my son when the time comes." ”
"If I had sought your reward, I would not have saved you. ”
Ji Fan beckoned to the woman in the blue dress, and then opened the door.
Under the leadership of the woman in the blue dress, Ji Fan quickly found the proprietress .
"Ji Gongzi, it's not impossible for you to redeem her, but I want to remind you that our girls here often make up some touching stories to coax soft-hearted guests in order to leave, so you have to think carefully. ”
After listening to Ji Fan's words, the proprietress kindly reminded her.
If it's someone else, it's okay, this Ji Gongzi is the young master of the Ji family in Bailian City after all, if he redeems the girl here on a whim tonight, but he has to regret it tomorrow, it will definitely make Piaoxiangyuan feel very troublesome.
This kind of thing has happened more than once before, and Piaoxiangyuan is not good enough to offend the wealthy families in the city, so in the end they can only return the star coins.
"I'm not drunk. ”
Ji Fan took out a stack of thick paper tickets from his arms and asked, "How many star coins do you need, give a number." ”
"Gongzi Ji is a distinguished guest of our Bailian City, I naturally won't ask for more, Gongzi only needs to leave a million star coins to take her away. ”
The proprietress didn't persuade again, the big deal was that tomorrow this Ji Gongzi would send the girl back, and she would return the star coins.
Leaving a paper ticket of one million star coins, Ji Fan took the girl who called herself Tao Yuyan and left Piaoxiangyuan.
And now, he only has 200,000 star coins left.
Fortunately, the Star Essence medicinal herbs he bought with 200,000 Star Coins during the day were enough for him to use for a while.
Piaoxiangyuan was very thoughtful in hospitality, and they arranged a carriage for Ji Fan and the others, so that Ji Fan and the others did not have to walk back.
Not long after Ji Fan and the others left, Qu Yu and the three of them also left Piaoxiangyuan after checking out.
When they checked out, they heard about Ji Fan's redemption for other girls, which made them very surprised.
"Waste is waste after all, and it is really stupid to spend a million star coins in vain by a few words of rhetoric from a girl!"
Zheng Yun touched the big wrench between his fingers, but there were originally five wrenches on this palm, but at this time, there were only four left, and it was estimated that the lost one was given away.
"That guy has never come out to play, how do you know how deep the water is in the party, this time it will be regarded as paying tuition. ”
Bai Jinyu tidied up his clothes and hair, and said with a smile: "I estimate that he will be scolded when he goes home, and then he will obediently send the girl back tomorrow." ”
"You can't talk nonsense, maybe people really fall in love at first sight!"
Qu Yu's face was very calm, and he added: "You don't know, the old head of the Ji family left Ji Fan an inheritance of 1.5 million star coins, and he spent his own star coins, and the Ji family may not scold him." ”
"I said, why are you in the mood to invite him to play, you must be thinking about other people's star coins. ”
Zheng Yun's slightly chubby face was full of strange smiles.
"Brother Qu, you deserve to be a businessman!"
Bai Jinyu also opened his mouth to agree, and shook his head again: "It's a pity, he spent so many star coins at once, and there is no oil and water left." ”
"Huh. ”
Qu Yu just smiled slightly, and didn't argue anything, but he knew very well in his heart that the reason why he wanted to befriend Ji Fan was not for that bit of star coins, and the last thing their Qu family lacked was star coins.
The Medicine Valley token that Ji Fan took out last night, Ji Fan always bought a lot of star essence medicinal materials, and Ji Fan's cultivation suddenly skyrocketed, which was all worthy of Qu Yu's consideration.
