Chapter 716: Habaek’s “Bride”
Before Ling Heng and Shi Li set off, the host waved his hand and gave them a hundred taels of gold.
These one hundred taels of gold might be a huge sum of money for others.
But to him, it was just a drop in the bucket. After all, the safety of his wife and daughter could not be bought with gold.
Ling Heng did not refuse the gift and accepted it generously. He also gave the newborn girl a lucky charm.
After leaving this magnificent mansion, the two continued on their journey.
According to Ling Heng, his master's sect is not very close to here, so there is still a long way to go.
Shi Li was also prepared to travel through mountains and rivers, but unexpectedly Ling Heng prepared a light white pony for her.
When he brought the horse over, he asked earnestly, "Can you ride a horse?"
Shi Li nodded subconsciously.
But she was also very curious as to why Ling Heng didn't ride a horse himself. After all, he had just received a huge sum of money, and it was impossible for him to be broke.
If you have questions, just ask them. Shi Li asked this question directly.
Ling Heng did not hide it and answered openly: "I practice asceticism to cultivate myself, so I don't need to ride a horse."
Shi Li: ...
Well, you are really demanding of yourself.
You are talented and work hard, are you trying to overwhelm your peers?
Before she knew it, her habit of quietly complaining had returned.
Two people and a horse set out on the long journey back to their master.
The journey was relatively peaceful and I didn't encounter any unusual things. I only passed through the wilderness occasionally and met a few small animals that had developed spiritual consciousness.
The first time they met a little white rabbit that was about to transform into a human form, Ling Heng grabbed its ears and lifted it up. Shi Li, who was standing next to it, was nervous for it.
He was afraid that Ling Heng regarded all monsters as enemies and would kill the little rabbit directly.
Facts have proved that Ling Heng is not Fahai.
He picked up the little rabbit and looked it up and down. After making sure that the rabbit had not done anything bad, he just patted its head.
"If you work hard for another three to five years, you should be able to transform into a human form. Don't do bad things then..."
Shi Li stared in amazement as Ling Heng gave the little rabbit a lot of instructions and then released it back into the bushes.
"Just let him go like that?" Shi Li looked at Ling Heng in disbelief.
Ling Heng was more surprised than she was. "What else? It already has a spirit, so we can't catch it and eat it. If you want to eat it, we can find another one."
Shi Li: ...
Thank you so much!
After this experience, she no longer found it strange when Ling Heng caught any animal to preach to her.
But one time, Ling Heng found a red carp that was about to become a spirit in a small river.
As usual, he lowered his head and gave the red carp a lecture.
Unexpectedly, this red carp was extremely arrogant. Not only did it not appreciate his kindness, it also jumped out of the water and splashed water on his face with its tail.
Shi Li witnessed the whole process nearby and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Ling Heng was splashed with fishy water in his face. Instead of looking for the culprit in the river, he stared straight at Shi Li.
"Did you just laugh at me?"
This is really a changing of circumstances. Just like Shi Li asked him the same question at the beginning, now it is his turn to ask.
Shi Li blinked and nodded generously, "Yeah, I laughed at you."
She is not timid and dares to take responsibility for her actions.
Ling Heng originally wanted to embarrass her, but he didn't expect her to play by her rules so unconventionally, and he choked again.
[Hahahaha~]
[The honest little Taoist priest can’t beat the anchor, I laughed so hard that I got rich hahaha~]
[Host: As long as I am thick-skinned, no one can beat me~]
After spending more time together, the two became much more casual than before.
When Shi Li had almost finished laughing, she looked at Ling Heng's embarrassed face, shook her head and took out a handkerchief to smear his face.
"Wipe it off quickly, your face smells like fish."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a deep voice from the side, calling out Ling Heng's name uncertainly.
Shi Li subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.
Not far away, stood a young man in a long robe, with handsome features and a heroic appearance.
Just when Shi Li thought that the young man was Ling Heng's brother or senior fellow student, he saw Ling Heng wipe his face with a handkerchief and look at the young man calmly.
"Sister."
Shi Li: ???

[What's wrong with this sect? Ling Heng wore women's clothing when they first met, and the eldest sister looked like the eldest brother? ]
