Chapter 446: Persuasion

In the silent study, the two father and daughter sat opposite each other, smelling the ice smoke and quietly looking at the father in front of them, waiting for each other's answer.

Wen Gonghu thought slightly: "You sent a letter to inform you that you met a landlord who had a lot of surplus grain at home, and this person was very generous, so he agreed to sell us a large amount of grain at a low price to help the people here......"

"Now it seems that those are ......"

"Yes, that's just a cover-up." Wen Bingyan nodded slightly, "The real reason ......"

When she said this, her voice suddenly paused, and she suddenly asked, "Daddy, where is the eldest brother?" ”

Wen Gonghu was stunned and replied: "Chong'er came back a few days earlier than you, but he was unlucky, he didn't buy much food, and his will was very depressed, so he should be helping in the shop on the street outside at this time." ”

"Could it be...... This matter is also related to Chong'er? ”

Wen Bingyan nodded and said, "Well, this matter concerns all the blood relatives of our Wen family, don't be careless, and ask Daddy to send someone to call the eldest brother back." ”

Wen Gonghu understood his daughter's temperament, so he naturally didn't think she was messing around, so he agreed.

After about a moment, the door of the study was pushed open, and a man with a slightly thin face walked into the room, his expression a little gloomy, obviously with a lot of troubles.

When he looked up and saw the ice smoke, he was slightly stunned, and then his face was a little happy and a little surprised: "Little sister, I am a little busy in the shop today, so I couldn't go to greet you, big brother, and now I am relieved to see that you are safe and sound." ”

"But why didn't you go to rest, but stayed with your father in the study......"

He turned his head to look at his father again: "Dad, is it because you called me here because of my little sister?" ”

"Yes, let's wait for Bingyan to say it himself." Wen Gonghu nodded and motioned for him to sit down and speak.

However, Wen Bingyan didn't speak immediately, for the sake of safety, she got up again and came to the door, opened the door to let the two maids waiting at the door leave, and after confirming that there were no outsiders around, she closed the door again and looked back at the two: "What I want to say next is not only related to whether there will be more food to help the disaster, but also related to the future of our Wen family." ”

Wen Gonghu knew this daughter's temperament very well, and seeing her make such a cautious move, he vaguely realized that the hidden truth behind this matter was probably very important, and he couldn't help but look more serious.

And Wen Chong, who had just learned about this, showed a little surprise on his face: "Little sister, do you mean, not only now, but also a steady stream of food?" ”

Seeing that she didn't deny it, she was even more stunned and puzzled, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Little sister, don't be deceived, where can people get so much food?" ”

In order to meet Peishan's needs, the amount of food consumed is definitely not a small amount, and any town will be dragged down in an instant, but it will make itself fall into trouble, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Just like before, he went out to try to buy food by himself, but he got very little, even if he had a lot of money on himself, but there was nowhere to buy so much food!

On the contrary, in the end, a lot of money was spent, but the food bought back was not even half of what the little sister brought back.

Now that Xiaomei said that he could buy more or even a steady stream of food, how could he believe it immediately?

"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you." Wen Bingyan understood his concern, so he said softly, "This matter is true and cannot be faked. Because if ordinary mortals really couldn't do this, there wouldn't be so much food to supply. ”

"But...... What if that person was not mortal at all? ”

"Not mortal?" Wen Chong was stunned for a moment, because this conjecture was completely beyond his cognition. To be honest, he hadn't thought about it at all, and his eyes widened slowly, "That'...... What is that? ”

"Legendary ghosts!" Wen Bingyan sighed, his eyes showed a bit of awe, "This time, there are many ......twists and turns on the road."

She didn't hide it, and told everything that had happened, especially the story of what had happened in the ghost town and the instructions of the terrible Dragon King.

And when she finished speaking, the two people in front of them all fell into deep shock and self-doubt, and there was only a dead silence in the study, and no one spoke.

Smelling Bingyan was not anxious, she had already guessed how this bizarre thing would affect them before she spoke, so she waited quietly for them to come back to their senses.

Soon, the first to speak was Wen Chong, who had an incredible face, and he was stammering: "Little sister, you ...... Didn't you hear a strange story somewhere, and you talked nonsense...... Are there really ghosts and gods who are willing to help us mortals with good intentions? ”

He was a little hard to imagine.

"I can lie, can the grain out there lie? Don't talk nonsense about ghosts and gods! Wen Bingyan shook his head and said.

She knew that the Dragon King must have secretly sent the ghost over for both protection and surveillance, but after all, she was only a mortal with the naked eye, and she couldn't see the ghost who could hide her body.

Perhaps a goblin was listening to their conversation at this time.

"This ...... That's just as well. Wen Chong choked and didn't dare to talk nonsense.

And Wen Gonghu was still more mature in the end, and said in a deep voice at this time: "Bingyan, didn't you say that the king gave a statue of an immortal?" Can you take it out and have a look now? ”

Wen Bingyan glanced at his father in a little surprise, he didn't expect the other party to accept this matter so quickly, so he nodded, and took out the statue that he had carefully protected with a small wooden box along the way and put it on the table.

"That's it. The king's request was that all the people who ate the food of the ghost town should worship this immortal. ”

"This thing ......"

Wen Gonghu took a closer look at the statue and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although this object is inconspicuous at first glance, the more closely you look at it, the more you will find a unique charm contained in this sculpture, as if it is really a beautiful fairy singing and dancing, so lifelike that it seems that the limbs will start to move in the next second, and the illusion will be transformed into a real immortal and soar to the sky!

For this alone, Wen Gonghu believed about half of it.

"Perhaps, this thing is really a treasure given by the ghost king in the mouth of the ice smoke?"

He couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he thought of this, he couldn't help but be a little more in awe of those invisible existences at the moment, who was originally indifferent to the so-called immortals!
