- seventeen -

Endless Mountain is just to the north of Pill City, and it was getting late, so they found an inn.

Dan Muhan paid the money and planned to go to the local mansion to inquire about Wuwu Mountain.

Yi Yuji nodded, "Thank you."

"Why are you polite..." Dan Muhan smiled at him, patted his shoulder with his fan, turned and left.

Zuo Yunhui and Yan Qianluo looked at each other, and Yan Qianluo tugged at Yan Yuji's sleeve, "Brother, let's go shopping."

Zuo Yunhui also said, "Yes, brother, this is our first time in Xidan, let's take a look."

Zuo Yunpin and Yan Yuji knew that these two girls had tried their best to make them reconcile.

Looking at her younger sister's look of anticipation and excitement, Yi Yuji couldn't bear to refuse.

"it is good."

Zuo Yunpin didn't say anything, it was a tacit agreement.

Zuo Yunhui looked at Yue Nianqing again, "Miss Yue, you can go too."

Yue Nianqing shook her head, indifferently, "There's nothing interesting here, I'm going to my room."

Yan Qianluo still doesn't like Yue Nianqing very much, she thinks she is a little girl with a cold face all day long, and she also carries a snake with her.Most importantly, she felt that Yue Nianqing treated Zuo Yunpin a little differently.

"It's better if she doesn't go, let's go."

Dan city is not big, but it is also prosperous.

Yan Qianluo and Zuo Yunhui walked in front, looking here and there with great interest.

Medicinal materials are everywhere in Xidan country, so the cheapest ones are also medicinal materials.

Everywhere, there are many vendors selling sachets, which are filled with medicinal materials.It has a light fragrance and can also repel insects and mosquitoes.

Yi Yuji bought four and gave each of them one.

"Catch the thief, catch the thief..."

A shout caught their attention, and they saw a strong man in his 40s chasing a girl of twelve or thirteen.

The girl ran desperately, her body covered by a tattered beggar's clothes.Half of the soles of the shoes are worn away.

The strong man caught up with the girl and knocked her down with a slap.

The girl cried and moved back, "I'm sorry, I dare not, I really dare not."

"Eat the bear's heart and the leopard's guts, ah, dare to steal my money..." The strong man stepped on the girl's hand fiercely, and the girl screamed.

There was indifference around, some people pretended not to see it, some people saw it, but they just looked at the girl who was beaten with distress.Some children saw it and wanted to go there, but were dragged away by adults.

The strong man picked up the money bag that fell on the ground, opened it and looked, there was a lot of money.

The strong man put the money in his pocket, and kicked the girl's knee again, "I told you to steal something."

Blood was seeping from the corner of the girl's mouth, and she begged weakly for mercy.

The strong man picked up the girl again, and just as he raised his hand, he was caught.

"That's enough, you haven't lost your money, why bother putting people to death."

The strong man turned his head to look at Yan Yuji, let go of the girl, Zuo Yunhui and Yan Qianluo caught the girl, Zuo Yunhui took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of the girl's mouth.

"Hey, where is this beautiful boy..." The strong man looked at the handsome boy in front of him, laughed, and raised his left hand to touch Yuji's face.

With sharp eyes, Yan Yuji kicked the strong man three meters away.

"Ahem..." The strong man lay on the ground, clutching his stomach, full of anger. As soon as he stood up, someone grabbed his neck from behind with an elbow.

Zuo Yunpin touched the strong man's left shoulder.The strong man let out a muffled groan, his face contorted instantly, and he couldn't even cry out in pain.

Zuo Yunpin patted his face, "What the hell are you, ah."

The strong man was about to cry.

"Get lost." Zuo Yunpin let go of him, and patted his body.

The strong man hurried away clutching his left arm.

Zuo Yunpin turned around, and saw the girl throw herself into Yan Yuji's arms.

Zuo Yunpin walked over, and the dust on the side of the road rose.

Yan Yuji pushed her away and wiped away her tears and dust.

The little girl burst into tears, "Thank you, brother."

Yan Yuji smiled softly, "Stop stealing from now on, do you understand?"

The little girl began to cry again, "I don't want to either, my brother is sick and I have no money to buy medicine."

Yan Yuji took out the money bag on his body and handed it to her, "You use this money to buy medicine for your brother, no matter what, stealing is always bad."

The little girl wiped her tears, "Thank you, I will definitely repay you."

Yan Yuji helped her up, "No, you can go home quickly."

The little girl held Yan Yuji's hand firmly, "Brother, my name is Xiaoqing, what's your name?"

Yan Yuji told her, "My name is Yan Yuji."

Xiaoqing said very seriously, "Brother Yuji, you waited for me for three years. My mother-in-law said that you can get married when you are 15 years old. If you wait for me to be 15 years old, I will marry you and repay you."

Yan Yuji was amused by her seriousness, and patted her head, "I really don't need anything outside of me."

Xiaoqing shook her head, "No, my mother-in-law said, I must repay the kindness that I have received."

Yan Qianluo also smiled and said, "You should repay in another way, I have a sister-in-law."

Yan Qianluo blinked at Zuo Yunhui.

Zuo Yunhui was very helpless.

"Is that so..." The girl was a little disappointed, but she still didn't give up. "If she doesn't mind, I'm fine."

Yan Qianluo didn't expect this little girl to be quite stubborn, so she smirked at her brother, "Brother, otherwise you will..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Yuji stared back, lowered his head and covered his mouth and snickered.

Yi Yuji said to Xiaoqing, "Go back quickly, isn't your brother still waiting for you to buy medicine?"

Only then did Xiao Qing reluctantly cast a glance at Yan Yuji, turned around and hadn't taken a step before she almost fell down.She crouched and covered her left knee.

Zuo Yunhui hurriedly supported her, "What's wrong?"

Xiaoqing raised her eyes aggrieved, "It's okay."

Zuo Yunhui lifted her coat, her knees were torn.

"Brother Yuji, she can't walk anymore, let's take her back."

There was no other way, so Yan Yuji had no choice but to say, "Let's go, I'll carry you."

"Okay..." Xiaoqing's expression changed instantly.

Zuo Yunpin didn't speak for a long time, he leaned against the wall with his fork, and grabbed the willow branches next to him, one branch at a time.

Xiao Qing lay on Yan Yuji's back, pointed the way, and said, "Brother, you are so good-looking, and you are such a nice person, whoever can marry you must be very happy."

Yan Qianluo followed behind, holding Zuo Yunhui's arm, and teased in a low voice, "Sister Yun, look at the little girls who know it, so hurry up."

Zuo Yunhui was too lazy to tell her.

Zuo Yunpin walked beside Yan Yuji, crossed his hands on his chest, pouted, "Little girl, don't be fooled by him, he is a good-looking person, but he has a bad temper and many problems. I like to hit people."

With Xiaoqing's disbelief on her face, Zuo Yunpin said very seriously, "Not only that, he also likes married women, even his sister-in-law."

Xiaoqing saw that what he said was so serious, but Yan Yuji didn't refute it, and she didn't know whether she should believe it or not.

Zuo Yunhui sighed, what happened to her brother.

Yan Qianluo went up to kick with displeasure, but Zuo Yunpin dodged him.

"My brother doesn't have one. You still say that my brother doesn't look at you, calls other people's names in his dreams, and brings home any girl he doesn't know clearly on the street. You are not a good person."

Zuo Yunpin felt that she was really the same as Meng Feifei, difficult and unreasonable, he still remembered after almost half a year.

Zuo Yunpin didn't have the mood to fight with her now, so he walked a little faster in agitation.

They turned around and came to a deserted temple. They didn't know which god was enshrined, and even the roof was broken.

In the temple, a white-haired mother-in-law walked up, "Xiaoqing, are you back?"

Xiaoqing responded and motioned for Yan Yuji to let her down, "Mother-in-law, it's me."

Xiaoqing limped and walked over to support her mother-in-law, "Grandma, I met a few kind-hearted people today, and they gave us a lot of money, so we can buy medicine for our brother."

The mother-in-law smiled gratefully with frowns on her face, "That's really thanks to the kind people."

It was only then that Zuo Yunpin and the others realized that this mother-in-law was blind.

There was an old wooden table and a few broken chairs in the temple, Xiaoqing asked them to sit down.

Zuo Yunpin sat down, and Yan Yuji sat opposite him.

Zuo Yunhui took out a handkerchief and wiped the stool, but Yan Qianluo still didn't want to sit down.

Xiaoqing knew that they were not ordinary people, so she found the best teapot in the temple and made them a pot of tea without saying anything.

The mother-in-law said very apologetically, "I'm really sorry for neglecting some distinguished guests."

Yan Yuji asked Yan Qianluo to take out the purse from her body, then got up and put it in her mother-in-law's hand, "Mother-in-law, take the money and buy some clothes for Xiaoqing."

The mother-in-law didn't dare to ask for it, and hurriedly pushed it back, "No, no, I've received too much favor from you today."

Zuo Yunpin also took out the money from himself and Zuo Yunhui, walked over and put it in the mother-in-law's hand together, "Just take it, it's not much. After all, Xiaoqing is a big girl. Also, treatment is also a must. It's a long-term thing, so don't refuse."

The mother-in-law's eyes were red and swollen, she was about to kneel down after collecting the money, Zuo Yunpin and Yan Yuji hurriedly supported her.

The mother-in-law was speechless, "Great kindness, my wife will not be able to repay her in this life. In the next life, I will be a cow and a horse in the next life, and I have to repay it."

Xiaoqing came over with a teapot, and her mother-in-law wiped away her tears and said she would go to see her younger brother and ask Xiaoqing to entertain the distinguished guests.

Xiaoqing nodded happily, poured tea for them, and chatted.

It was only then that Zuo Yunpin and the others realized that the mother-in-law, Xiao Qing, and the younger brother were not a family, they were all homeless poor people living in ruined temples.

Xiaoqing said that they met here five years ago and took root here. Although her mother-in-law is blind, she is very agile. She takes them out to beg during the day and sews for them at night.

In less than two years, her mother-in-law got old and couldn't walk anymore. Xiaoqing took her younger brother out to beg, and she was able to maintain it. Until last year, her younger brother suddenly fell ill and had a fever at every turn. Since then, their life has become difficult.

Today, Xiaoqing really had no choice but to steal money.

Zuo Yunpin couldn't help empathizing with him, but his fate was good.

Zuo Yunpin thought of the dean again, and didn't know what happened to her.What about the orphanage.
