At this point, all the questions that need to be asked have been asked, and all the temptations have been tested.
Since the system has not popped up any options up to this point, it means that handing over Lu Ningxiang to Yan Guangqing is a problem-free choice.
So when Yan Guangqing issued the warning, Jiang Beiran smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Please rest assured, Master Yan, if possible, I definitely don't want to stick to this water at all."
After hearing this, Yan Guangqing withdrew his gaze: "That's right. With your temperament, how could you extend your hand so long? So what is your purpose of asking about this matter?"
"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just picked up a little girl on the road. When I asked about it, she said she was the sister of the current emperor of the country, so I..."
"Stop it first!" Yan Guangqing suddenly shouted, interrupting Jiang Beiran, "Where did you say you picked it up?"
"The princess of the country."
"Last name is Lu?"
"right."
"Lu Ningxiang?"
"Sect leader Yan really knows things well." Jiang Beiran cupped his hands and said in a tone of great admiration.
"..."
"Where did you pick it up?"
"Picked it up on the road."
After hearing this, Yan Guangqing paced back and forth, and finally asked: "Can you tell me what's going on?"
After hearing this, Jiang Beiran told Yan Guangqing about how he met Lu Ningxiang in the inn.
"You don't seem to be such a nosy person." Yan Guangqing said after hearing this.
"That's because Sect Leader Yan doesn't know this junior well enough. I usually do chivalry and justice, and I've done a lot of things to fight against injustice."
"Okay, since you said that, I believe it, but now that you know her identity, you still want to continue to take care of this noisy matter?"
"Alas." Jiang Beiran sighed after hearing this, "I can't help it. This junior is so soft-hearted, and the princess is quite sensible. I really can't bear it."
"So you just went around in such a big circle just to test whether I would be disadvantageous to her?"
"I don't dare. The reason why I want to ask clearly is because I am worried that this princess will bring you trouble."
"Then you're not worried now?"
"Of course I'm still worried. It's just that I know you as a highly respected sect master in this country, so..."
"Did someone bring it?"
"No, how dare I bring the princess here without your permission?"
After hearing this, Yan Guangqing paced back and forth a few more steps, then sat back in his master's seat.
"Bei Ran, Bei Ran, I really can't see through you."
"Sect Master Yan, don't you believe what this junior just said?"
"Believe it, of course I believe it, otherwise I wouldn't bother arguing with you here, but I don't understand why this matter just hit you on the head?"
‘Why the hell do I still want to ask!’
How should Jiang Beiran respond to this? It’s a big gift package from Tiandao to his buddy? It’s the kind that you can’t accept even if you don’t want to.
After complaining in his heart, Jiang Beiran raised his hand again and replied: "Actually, I also thought that this princess might be of some use to you, so I was bold..."
"Slow down!" Yan Guangqing waved his hand fiercely, "What do you mean? You came to ask me for help, and I still owe you a favor if you cooperate with me?"
'Hiss...this old fox really doesn't want to suffer at all.'
However, if Jiang Beiran had not become very familiar with Yan Guangqing, he would not have talked about playing this kind of "language art".
Now that it was exposed, Jiang Beiran had no choice but to change his words: "Of course not. What I want to express is that if she will not affect you, I will send her here. If she will affect you, you will treat her as if I have not been here today."
.”
"Compared with this, I still want to know what benefits the princess promised you."
"Conscience of heaven and earth, I am the kind of person who does good deeds and does good deeds without asking for anything in return."
"Then you are really upright and upright, but I am different from you. To tell you the truth, this girl is really troublesome right now. If it weren't for your sake, I wouldn't even want to talk."
Jiang Beiran understood what he said, he was asking for benefits.
But Jiang Beiran is not the one who suffers. He didn't get any benefits from this shitty thing, but it also caused a lot of trouble. Now he wants to pay for the benefits?
Isn’t this bullying an honest person?
"Please rest assured, Sect Master Yan, that the princess is not a free-for-all. She also knows that she is a trouble, so she has already estimated the price for herself."
"How to say?"
"As long as you are willing to take her in and keep her family safe, she is willing to tell you the location of her father's treasure house."
"Why do you want to put in one more condition?"
"This condition is not what the junior said, it is the price clearly stated by the princess."
"Do you think I am someone who lacks the treasures of her father?"
"It's not like that." Jiang Beiran shook his head, "Then let me think of other ways."
"Hey!" Yan Guangqing suddenly shouted, "Although I am not interested in this treasure house, when you mention her father, I can't help but feel a little emotional. After all, we are old friends. Seeing his daughter reduced to this
, which is also a bit unbearable.”
Although I couldn't help but complain in my heart, "I believe you, you are such a bad old man."
But on the surface, Jiang Beiran still said with great reverence: "Sect Master Yan is really a person who values love and justice! This junior admires him."
"That's all, that's all, just bring her to me."
"Can Sect Leader Yan save her family?"
"If I don't have this bit of face, how can I have the nerve to say something like this to protect your country?"
'Oh, what a guy.'
In just one sentence, Jiang Beiran felt that there was a huge amount of information. Just by Yan Guangqing's words, Jiang Beiran felt that no matter what the outcome of this storm, he would benefit from it.
'An old fox is an old fox, he really has something.'
"Sect Master Yan is indeed very powerful. I admire you so much. So, will you go and bring the princess here?"
"Okay, but remember to be careful."
"Please rest assured, Sect Leader Yan."
"Then go ahead, I'll be waiting for you here."
"Okay, please wait a moment, Master Yan. I will come back as soon as I can." After saying this, Jiang Beiran exited the main hall.
Looking at Jiang Beiran's leaving figure, Yan Guangqing adjusted his sitting posture and smoothed his long beard.
'Looks like I have to go to Granny Lin again to tell my fortune.'
The reason why Yan Guangqing agreed to Jiang Beiran was not because he wanted the treasure house. Of course, it would be good to be an extra.
But the main point is that Yan Guangqing felt that in the vast sea of people, such a big event happened to hit him on Jiang Beiran's head. It was really too much of a coincidence, as if it was destined.
From the first time he met Jiang Beiran, Yan Guangqing always felt that he must have divine help in his destiny. Otherwise, how could he be so prosperous and even become a guest in the Shi family with his little cultivation and birth.
All these appearances prove that he is destined to be extraordinary, so since this princess is a chance given to him by God.
Of course it's no different.
In the cave, Lu Ningxiang was biting into a pancake. Although she was actually quite full, when she thought about her previous experience of being hungry and the possibility that she might continue to be hungry in the future, she decided to eat as much as she could.
Eat some.
While she was nibbling, Lu Ningxiang lowered her head to take a sip of water. When she looked up, she saw that her husband was sitting in front of her. She was so frightened that she almost spit out the cake she had just eaten.
It was only out of the strong will to never waste food that I kept my mouth shut tightly.
After swallowing the pancake while beating her chest, Lu Ningxiang took a deep breath and stood up and saluted: "Sir, you are back."
"Are you full?" Jiang Beiran asked.
"Eat...I'm full." Lu Ningxiang nodded.
"When you're full, get ready to hit the road. I'll help you find a good place to stay."
Lu Ningxiang was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and asked in disbelief: "I wonder where Sir is talking about."
"Sect Leader Yan of the Qiantian Sect said he is willing to let you live there. In addition, he will also find a way to deal with your family's affairs."
"Qiantian Sect...Sect Leader Yan!?"
Lu Ningxiang couldn't help but widen her eyes and shouted in disbelief.
"What, do you know her?" Jiang Beiran asked, looking at her surprised expression.
For a moment, Lu Ningxiang felt a little confused. Of course she had heard of Sect Master Yan. He was an expert that even his father always talked about.
It's just that my father has spoken of his evaluation of him in private several times before.
At best, it's called scheming; at worst, it's cunning.
Anyway, although the evaluation is not a compliment, it is by no means derogatory.
When my father was in power, he would always be extremely careful when negotiating with Sect Master Yan, but even if he was extremely careful, he would always slap his thigh and shout afterwards.
"I was tricked by that old fox again!"
Seeing Lu Ningxiang's stunned look, Jiang Beiran felt that Yan Guangqing's image in her heart was probably not very good, and she was confused at the moment.
"Don't want to go?" Jiang Beiran asked.
"No, no..." Lu Ningxiang waved her hands after hearing her husband's question again, "It's just that I didn't expect you, sir, to know Sect Master Yan, let alone that Sect Master Yan would be willing to take me in."
Hearing this, Jiang Beiran stopped his intention to extinguish the bonfire, grabbed the small bench and sat across from Lu Ningxiang and asked: "Come on, tell me what impression you have of Sect Leader Yan, and why you think he won't take you in." .”
Lu Ningxiang first picked up the water bag and took a big sip, and then hesitated for a moment before replying: "Father once said that Sect Leader Yan is a very reliable person, but only when this matter is profitable and he takes the majority. He is extremely reliable, but if..."
"Hahahahaha..."
Hearing Lu Ningxiang's answer, Jiang Beiran burst into a rare laugh.
Image! This answer is simply too vivid.
He is an old fox with thousands of years of experience. It is absolutely impossible to take advantage of him.
It was the first time that Lu Ningxiang saw her husband smile so heartily, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
If asked by others, she would never dare to comment on Sect Master Yan like this, but in front of this gentleman, she did not dare at all and was unwilling to hide it, because even though he knew that she was a big trouble, But he still chose to help, and even used such a big connection.
It would be very inhumane for her to hide this kindness and love while speaking.
"That's good." Jiang Beiran stopped laughing and nodded, "Continue, what is the second half of the evaluation?"
Hearing that her husband seemed to have no intention of blaming her, Lu Ningxiang boldly continued to answer: "If this matter seems unprofitable, but he still cooperates with you, then you must be extremely careful, because he wants to Something must be bigger than you think."
Smiling and nodding, Jiang Beiran broke off two sticks of dry wood and threw them into the bonfire and said, "So do you think he will be profitable in this matter of yours?"
"I...I don't know."
Lu Ningxiang just memorized these lessons from her father, but if something really happened, she didn't know how to analyze it.
For now, the only benefit she can bring to the sect leader is her father's treasure house, but whether this treasure house is big or small compared with her own troubles and the troubles of her whole family, she doesn't care.
Not coming anymore.
Seeing Lu Ningxiang shaking her head, Jiang Beiran asked: "Then let me ask you, are you willing to give everything to save your family?"
"Of course I do!" Lu Ningxiang raised her neck and shouted.
"That's it. In that case, you don't have to think about your father's seemingly unprofitable comment. After all, you are ready to pay all the costs. If you remove the second half,
This Sect Leader Yan is just like your father’s first half evaluation, very reliable.”
"Sir... what you said is absolutely true!" Lu Ningxiang looked like she suddenly understood.
"Okay, now that we've made it clear, let's set off. Sect Leader Yan is still waiting." Jiang Beiran stood up after finishing speaking.
Looking at the gentleman who was putting out the fire, Lu Ningxiang suddenly knelt down on her knees and was about to knock her head on the ground when she felt something pressed against her forehead.
"I don't like this, and your road will not be easy to follow. Just work hard and live."
"Many...thank you sir."
After Lu Ningxiang said this, her tears fell down "pah, pah".
Before experiencing this series of great changes in her family, betrayal by her relatives, and running away for life and death, she was just a princess who had food to eat and clothes to stretch out her hands.
This journey has been really difficult for her.
Now in front of this gentleman, she could finally let go of her apparent strength and have a good cry, because no matter how her husband said he was just helping, Lu Ningxiang still felt that she finally had a hero worth relying on.
Just like in a drama.
"Gone."
Following her husband's words, Lu Ningxiang felt like flowers were blooming in front of her eyes, and she came to a yard full of exotic flowers and trees, which was even more beautiful than the back garden of their palace.
"This is..." Lu Ningxiang raised her head and asked.
"Don't ask, I'll be there in a moment."
Hearing that her husband refused to ask, Lu Ningxiang obediently closed her mouth, not even daring to glance around.
After about a cup of tea, Lu Ningxiang felt another flower in front of her eyes and arrived at a very high mountain peak.
"This is where Sect Master Yan lives. Are you ready?"
After hearing this, Lu Ningxiang took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, nodded and said, "Well, I'm ready."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran led Lu Ningxiang towards the main hall door.
