OBS Chapter 80 Leaving Peach Blossom Village
Chapter 80 Leaving Peach Blossom Village
After cleaning, Chu Chu took out some blankets and quilts from the storage bag and made the beds in both bedrooms. Yuan Yi and Ruo Han then filled the water tanks in the kitchen for their immediate use.
Lu Jinyan took out some grains, rice, vegetables, and other items from her spatial storage and sorted them out. She then had Yuan Yi shovel a large pile of snow in the yard, put some meat in it, and buried it in the snow. Since it was winter, the snow was practically a natural refrigerator.
This meat can be preserved until next spring at least. There's no need to worry about it spoiling before the snow melts. Then she gave Old Master Zhou a thousand demon crystals. Don't ask her why she's so rich and still gave so little.
She understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Human nature is the most terrifying thing in the world, whether it is a human or a demon. If she gave too much and others found out, it might bring trouble to Old Master Zhou.
Moreover, it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. She can't help them forever; they will eventually have to find their own way to survive.
After everything was tidied up, Lu Jinyan gave a few more instructions. Finally, after Old Master Zhou thanked her profusely, Lu Jinyan led the group back to the mansion.
Yuan Yi's injuries had almost healed, so Lu Jinyan decided to set off the next afternoon to leave this place and continue towards Ruoshui City.
As for why it was in the afternoon, it was mainly because she couldn't get up early to travel in the morning.
After returning, she first went to see those recovering from their injuries, and also said goodbye to Kang Ning and the others. When she heard that Kang Ning was leaving, the little girl cried her eyes out, insisting on going with her, but Lu Jinyan definitely wouldn't agree.
Are you kidding me? Who would be so foolish as to run around with the Beast Taming Sect's precious daughter? What if something happens on the road? Wouldn't Kang Cheng tear her to pieces?
So she naturally refused firmly and resolutely, and then took Chu Chu back to rest. The next day, after breakfast, Lu Jinyan was worried about Zhou Cui and wanted to go and check on her before leaving. As a result, she ran into Kang Ning, who had come to find her.
Kang Ning originally came to persuade Lu Jinyan to take her with her, but when she saw Lu Jinyan about to leave, she followed her. After meeting Zhou Cui and learning about her situation, Kang Ning, with red eyes, promised that the Beast Taming Sect would take good care of Zhou Cui and Old Master Zhou.
With Kang Ning's words, Lu Jinyan was relieved. She had been wondering how to make the grandfather and grandson live, but now that the problem was solved, she was at ease.
She was initially worried that Kang Ning might have some psychological aftereffects after this incident, since she was almost sold off. But who knew that this girl was so carefree and acted like nothing had happened.
After lunch, Lu Jinyan and her group tidied up and gathered in front of the Wang family's residence.
The carriage they had been in was still there. Yuan Yi drove it out, and Liu Xu and Liu Qing were responsible for loading their things onto the carriage. They then prepared to get on the carriage one by one, but were interrupted by a voice.
"Sister Lu, Sister Lu, wait for me, wait for me!" Kang Ning ran over breathlessly, carrying a small bundle in her arms.
"Ning'er, what's wrong with you???" Lu Jinyan had a bad feeling.
"Sister Lu, please take me with you! I really want to go with you!" Kang Ning blinked her big, watery eyes, looking like she was ready to cry if he didn't take her!
"Ning'er, our destination is still unclear, and we will inevitably encounter dangers along the way. You..." Lu Jinyan was in a dilemma. She really liked this girl, but it was absolutely impossible for her to take the person away.
Her purpose in coming here was to find a target to pursue, complete all the tasks assigned by the system, and then she could relax and chase after handsome men and wait to die!
The path to finding the target alone is long, and there's no guarantee of safety. She really can't take her on this adventure.
"Sister Lu, don't worry, I can take care of myself. I will definitely not cause you any trouble, and I can protect myself, really!" Kang Ning's eyes reddened with grievance. She liked this older sister and wanted to adventure in the demon realm with her.
"Miss, what are you doing here? Miss Lu, I'm sorry to have caused you trouble!" Kang Shou came out with a dark face. He had only gone to relieve himself when the young lady ran away.
Fortunately, he made it in time. Otherwise, if he had lost the young lady, he would definitely have been skinned alive by the sect leader.
"It's alright, Ning'er. I really can't take you with me, but I promise I will definitely go to the Beast Taming Sect to see you!" Lu Jinyan reached out and rubbed Kang Ning's head.
"Sister Lu..." Kang Ning's tears streamed down her face as she gripped Lu Jinyan's sleeve tightly with both hands.
Just as Lu Jinyan was in a dilemma, she saw Kang Shou raise his hand and deliver a chop to the back of Kang Ning's neck, and Kang Ning fainted.
Lu Jinyan stared in disbelief. "Ah... this..."
Lu Jinyan reached up and touched the back of her neck, suddenly feeling a slight pain.
In the end, Lu Jinyan left, while Kang Ning was taken back by Kang Shou.
Because Yuan Yi had just recovered from his injury, Ruo Han suggested that he drive for a while first, and then Yuan Yi would take over. Although Lu Jin Yan felt that Ruo Han was also sick and it was inappropriate for him to drive, no one else knew how to drive, so that was the only option.
If we had traveled quickly from Peach Blossom Village to the nearest town, we could have arrived before dark. However, since the carriage was full of sick people, it moved rather slowly. By the time we reached the town, the streetlights were already on.
Lu Jinyan and her group were exhausted. They found an inn, booked rooms, paid the bill, and asked the waiter to feed the horses. They went back to their rooms to rest for a while before going out for dinner. Dinner was served at the inn, but Lu Jinyan couldn't eat any of it. She took out two steamed buns from her spatial storage, ate them, and then lay down to rest.
She had important business to attend to tomorrow, so she needed to go to bed early. Yuan Yi and the others barely ate any of the food at the inn before hurrying back to rest.
Lu Jinyan slept soundly without any dreams. The next day, she got up quite early. Chu Chu borrowed the inn's kitchen to cook porridge and steam some buns. The group had a simple breakfast, and then Lu Jinyan divided them into two groups.
Chu Chu, Liu Qing, and Yuan Yi were in one group to purchase some supplies. Most of the things in her storage bag had been given to Grandpa Zhou, so she needed to replenish them. Liu Xu and Ruo Han were in another group to go to the demon slave market to buy a demon slave who could drive a carriage.
After the assignments were made, the group split up and got to work!
