The woman looked up in shock, and when she saw the person in front of her, her lips moved twice, her body trembled, and she didn't even dare to break free of Huo Rendong's arm.

Huo Rongdong held the person firmly and stood up. Fortunately, she was already in the middle stage of Qi refining, and the weight of such a slender woman was nothing at all.

"Thank you, Fairy Gu......" The woman bowed down, hanging her head and not daring to look at her.

Huo Rendong observed that there was no one around, and after thinking about it, he still couldn't help but ask: "I know that you must have something unspeakable, but if a woman walks this way, she must have a short life and many diseases, you have also entered the road of cultivating immortals, even if the progress is slow, it is also one step at a time, why ......bother?" ”

Hearing this, the woman burst into tears, looked at her repeatedly for a long time, and saw that Huo Rendong looked amiable, so she whispered her story.

Her name is Xia Rong, she is just a five-element miscellaneous spirit root, a low-grade and low-level, not much better than ordinary mortals, this qualification can be cultivated to the second or third level of qi refining at most, and it is impossible to be promoted.

Both parents are miscellaneous servants of the Daxiu Zhen family, his father is also a five-element spiritual root, his mother is an ordinary person, and there is an elderly grandfather and younger brother in the family, and the family lives in a small house to barely survive.

Once, when his father was feeding in the stable, he was trampled on a leg by a demon beast, but the master scolded him for not raising it properly, beating and scolding, and was beaten to the point that both legs were broken.

His mother emptied her savings to heal her father's leg injury, but the clan blamed him for delaying the feeding of the demon beasts and affecting the business, not only did he not give money, but he also had to compensate the family for 300 spirit stones.

"Daddy's hard work is only ten lower-grade spirit stones a month, and now that Dad is crippled again, how can he get so much money......

Xia Rong hid her face and cried bitterly, Huo Rongdong didn't understand anything when she saw this.

I'm afraid that the main family sees that her face is acceptable, and she has spiritual roots, so she can be a furnace to pay off debts.

"The adults said that if no one wants me, I will sell my grandfather and younger brother to the mines." Xia Rong's face was frightened.

The living moon who went to the mine to dig spirit stones all wanted people, but he had never seen anyone come back.

The bones of those laborers may not even be piled up in the mines, my grandfather is in his sixties, and my younger brother is only ten years old.

Xia Rong knelt down with a "plop", grabbed Huo Rongdong's sleeve, and tears flowed loudly: "Please accept me, I can do any rough and dirty work, if the fairy girl doesn't like it, I will never get in front of the immortal master to obstruct ......"

She banged her head, and suddenly a pair of hands grabbed her firmly, pulling her whole body to her feet.

Huo Rongdong took out a bottle of Qi Replenishing Pill from the storage bag, hoping to make up for some of the damage suffered by Xia Rong's body.

"My cultivation is not high, I can only take this, you can take it to reduce illness and pain, strengthen your body, and it will also be good for your father's injury."

Huo Rongdong rummaged through the storage bag again, leaving her twenty medium-grade spirit stones.

This money is almost a huge amount of money for mortals, enough to change their lives.

"You have been with me for the past few days when you are sailing, and you have lied to that person that the immortal master wants to keep you. Wait until the cloud boat is anchored before you leave on your own, and quietly take your family away. If you don't leave the man-eating master's house, you can find a mortal village and live a good life. Huo Rongdong persuaded earnestly.

Xia Rong was still holding the elixir in her hand, and when she encountered such good things one after another, she almost suspected that she was dreaming, and when she figured out that she was not dreaming, she was so happy that she almost fainted, and the pain of being beaten just now was almost unfelt.

Xia Rong looked at the small bag containing the spirit stone in her hand, her hands trembling and she almost couldn't hold it.

For her, the elixir is still secondary, and the main thing is that this huge amount of spirit stone is too important.

Twenty medium-grade spirit stones, their value is equivalent to one thousand lower-grade spirit stones! It is more than enough to repay the debt of the main family's three hundred spirit stones.

When people are young, they don't pay so much attention to things like body and lifespan, but a thousand low-grade spirit stones, that is a huge amount of money that their whole family can't save in a hundred years!

In the immortal city where they lived, a small tiled house with three rooms was only a hundred spirit stones!

There are only ten spirit stones in one acre of good paddy field.

The remaining seven hundred spirit stones are enough for their whole family to live comfortably for a lifetime!

From now on, she no longer has to be a slave and a maid, she no longer has to lose Yin Yuan, she is ridiculed and bullied, and her father and mother don't have to be beaten and scolded.

Xia Rong thought about it, her heart was empty and she couldn't believe it, and asked timidly: "Immortal Gu, this, this is a medium-grade spirit stone, and the exchange value is much higher than that of a lower-grade spirit stone, do you really give it to me?"

"I—I'm not...... I was already broken by someone a year ago, and I lost my Yuan Yin...... But I don't want to! Really, really......" She became more and more anxious, tears rolling in her eyes.

Huo Rongdong immediately understood what she meant, patted Xia Rong's arm soothingly, and said softly: "I know, I know." Don't worry, these spirit stones are all for you, take them well, no one will grab them. ”

Xia Rong looked at her with tears in her eyes, suddenly knelt down again, knocked her head three hard times, and then cried loudly.

"Immortal Gu, the merciful Immortal Gu, it would be nice if I could meet you earlier, earlier......"

Huo Rendong naturally knew what she was crying about, but there were so many hard-working women like this in this world, and there were countless mortal women who were plundered by bullies when they were in the Zhou family, and in the end, when she came, there were only dozens of people left such as Fu Chunhua.

The twenty medium-grade spirit stones were collected by her during this time, and the bottle of pills was given by Qi Ci. These treasures are not much for her as an immortal cultivator, but can she afford to give thousands of twenty spirit stones?

After all, what she can change and what she can help is only a very small number of people.

So, fate is a good word.

The word fate is wonderful.

In the end, Xia Rong wiped away her tears, her face returned to her dreamlike joy, and she thanked Huo Rongdong again and again.

Huo Rongdong also repeatedly told her not to show her money, don't show anything unusual, pay attention to safety after getting off the boat, hide traces, and don't be discovered by the master's family.

Later, she was still not at ease, Huo Rendong also gave her a talisman, which could conjure up a flame attack, although it was only a very rudimentary yellow-level talisman with weak power, but for Xia Rong, it was enough.

Huo Rendong advised: "Use it only when you encounter a life-and-death crisis, and you won't be able to use it once you run it up." ”

To calm down her emotions, she took people back to the cabin, and saw Qi Ci standing outside the door of the small room with her arms crossed, standing tall and jade, and saw her thoughtful appearance.

Xia Rong was extremely afraid of him, and when she bumped into Qi Ci, she hurriedly hid to the side like a turtle, not even daring to raise her head.

Huo Rongdong was also a little weak-hearted, at this moment, it seemed that a mouse had seen a cat, and she opened her mouth: "Childe......"

But Qi Ci just glanced at the woman behind her, but she didn't say anything.

The two entered the room and sat down, and Huo Rongdong wondered: "Childe, why don't you ask the reason?" ”

Qi Ci mentioned that she poured a cup of tea, which was the spiritual tea sent by the Dragon and Tiger Gate before, with curling smoke and aroma.

"This is your cause and your effect, so why should I intervene? Besides, if you can't save a woman, what are you afraid of? ”

Huo Rongdong was dumbfounded, and he couldn't seem to refute it for a while.

She almost forgot that Qi Ci was not only a powerful Jindan Zhenjun, he was also the master and ancestor of the world's largest sect, whether it was his identity background or cultivation realm, there was no possibility of fear.

He, her, and Xia Rong are not in one dimension of the food chain. He didn't take the man who sold the furnace in his eyes, and he didn't even take the main family behind Xia Rong in his eyes.

Thinking of this, Huo Rongdong became even more determined to become stronger.

She picked up the teacup proudly and almost lost her hand: "Hot——! ”

Qi Ci held his chin on the side and smiled: "Look at you, you're in a hurry." ”

Later, Xia Rong has been following Huo Rongdong. A few times they met the male cultivator who sold her in the public area, and the other party threw his hand at them, intentionally or unintentionally, and the smile on his face was almost ear-shattering.

Fortunately, the other party did not come forward to find it boring, and the three-day voyage was safe and stable.

After arriving at the port of Lucheng, Huo Rongdong smoothly took the people off the ship and gave her a few broken silver trucks for mortals. Xia Rong bowed respectfully again, thanking her for saving her life, and she was ready to find a place nearby to hide and wait for the next Yunzhou to return.

Qi Ci had been waiting patiently beside him, and when Xia Rong had walked away, he said to Huo Rendong: "Let's go, take you to visit the Lucheng Xiuzhen Market." ”

Lucheng is a fairly prosperous Xiuzhen city in the Western Continent, and several large and small sects gather here.

There is such a limerick poem among the people: look at the white jade of Qionglou from afar, and there is a heron flying eaves behind the sea of clouds.

Lucheng has a grand situation in the cultivation realm that is different from Bai Yujing. The buildings themselves are very distinctive, very different from other places, they are also immortal and mortal people, and the common people use some thick giant trees to make the pillars of the house, and do not like to use bricks and stones.

They used animal skins and branches to make the roof, and the mud mixed with sand and gravel to make the walls, and the walls were painted with various ores and painted totem murals, which looked colorful and very rough.

Most of the civilians are like this, but looking at their dress, life is not difficult, and the feeling of the house being cleaned up is not shabby and dilapidated.

The monks' houses are much more elegant, decorated with fairy grass and fairy wood, and are mostly small buildings with several floors.

In addition, there are also houses made of wood instead of mud in the castle, and there are various styles.

Huo Rongdong followed Qi Ci to the monks' market, and most of the roadside were stalls set up by low-level monks, selling some spiritual plants and spiritual fruits that he had dug up. Huo Rendong looked at a few, and the condition was much worse than what she dug up, and they all looked like they were all miserable.

Behind the stalls are also rows of exquisitely decorated shops, selling pills, magic weapons, magic clothes and shoes, and weapons.
