Chapter 1105: A Man and a Woman Alone
Meng Jifang was resisting from head to toe. He did not look too good.
“I’ve already given you money. Can’t you think of another way?” Meng Jifang asked again.
“No.” Xie Qiao said concisely, “We’ll go first thing tomorrow morning. Since it’s so far away, I guess I’ll have to stay there for the night. I’ll have to trouble you to prepare the things for the night. I’ve already accepted the money, but if you’re a coward and quit halfway and die, the money won’t be returned.”
Meng Jifang glared at her.
This was really annoying.
Why would he not get the money back? Although he had an extraordinary status, his money was still quite tight. His family was strict with him, and he had to save up for a long time before he could squander so much money on this witch.
Moreover, he did not dare to delay this problem.
“Only you and me?” Meng Jifang frowned. “It’s not good for a man and a woman to go alone, right?”
Even though the other party was a Taoist master.
As Mo Chusheng, Xie Qiao had never cared about gender.
However, since he said so...
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll bring a few people as helpers,” Xie Qiao said after some thought.
Since she was going to spend the night outside, she had to inform the Crown Prince. Since that was the case, she might as well bring her family along. It was also a good opportunity for her to have a spring outing with the Crown Prince to relax.
However, as Mo Chusheng, it would not be good for her to get too close to the Crown Prince. If that was the case...
She might as well invite her other junior brothers along, so that they could take care of each other. Moreover, she did not have to worry about rumors spreading.
When Meng Jifang heard that she was going to bring someone along, he became even more worried.
Could this Taoist master be trying to harm him secretly? If he was gone, his father would definitely be greatly affected. He would not be able to stumble on the Crown Prince for a while!
“Then I’ll bring a few people with me!” It was also time for his good friends to help!
“Sure.” Xie Qiao did not refuse.
After saying that, Xie Qiao took out a talisman and gave it to him. “Keep it close to your body. You will sleep well tonight and keep your spirit safe.”
When Meng Jifang saw the talisman, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
When he saw that headless shadow just now, he was really afraid. He thought that he would be scared again tonight. Now that he had this talisman, he could finally feel at ease.
Unknowingly, he did not doubt Mo Chusheng’s words.
After sending this person off, Xie Qiao went to the Royal Academy to look for her junior brothers.
Coincidentally, Jiang Jinlu was also travel-worn and rushed back in a carriage when she had just arrived.
He looked a little disheveled. The beard on his face was prickly. When he saw Xie Qiao, he called out to her and brought over the cow’s tears that he had collected with a guilty look.
“After searching for so long, I visited almost all the villages outside the city, but there are so few old cows that shed tears. It’s really too few...” Jiang Jinlu looked much older.
He had only been out for three to four months.
However, it was even harder than when he had gone traveling with his teacher!
The first time he found an old cow that was about to die, he could not help but feel sad.
The old cow no longer had the strength to work. It was old and looked particularly haggard. Finally, it lay on the ground, its eyes seemingly looking into the distance. He carefully squatted in the cow shed, and when he went to take the cow’s tears, he could not help but think of the hard work of the old cow all its life. He thought that his life was good, so he was reincarnated into a human.
Later, he wandered around the village and found that the cows worked really hard.
When there was farm work, they had to loosen the soil. When there was no work, they had to pull the cart.
The farmers were also as tired as the old cows.
