Chapter 593 - 593 Scheming
593 Scheming
“Tsk, how can the two of us be the same? Think about it. When I was young, I was so handsome and suave. My looks are better than Pan An’s. Even if I’m old, I’m still a handsome old man. My white eyebrows, white beard, and every wrinkle on my face are handsome and good-looking. In the future, when the girl finds a husband, she’ll definitely have to find one based on my looks when I was young. Otherwise, I won’t agree to it.”
Old Wu immediately stroked his beard proudly.
“Alright, alright, alright. You’re the most handsome. I won’t argue with you. You’re right, right?”
Elder Niu waved his hand, looking as if everything he said was right.
Although he said that, everyone could hear the disapproval in his tone.
How could Old Wu agree to that? He immediately said, “Do you think I can’t tell from your sarcastic tone? You’re clearly jealous of me. If my girl’s husband looked like you when you were young, I wouldn’t agree. I’ll definitely beat him up.”
“Ah, yes, yes, yes—”
Elder Niu laughed heartily.
Old Wu rolled his eyes. “Little Niu, tell me.”
Little Niu pursed his lips and held back his laughter. He said gently, “Uncle-Master, have you forgotten? I can’t see.”
“This is not simple. Then remember this well. When you can see 12 years later, as long as your Master and I appear at the same time, just call me Old Pan An.”
Old Wu’s eyes darted around and he had an idea.
Elder Niu smiled. “Child, you can decide for yourself.”
Little Niu agreed with a smile. “Sure.”
He was looking forward to that day. Twelve years didn’t seem so far away.
There was a commotion outside. A large group of people had arrived, saying that they wanted to clean up this dilapidated house.
“You guys, build a shed first and chase this old beggar and little beggar to live in the shed. I’m not a person who disregards human lives. Since he’s so sick that he can’t move, I’ll save a life and do this good deed.”
Old Wu put away his smile and said seriously.
The people who were paid to work naturally did not say anything and praised his Bodhisattva heart.
There was strength in numbers, and Elder Niu quickly got a better place to settle down.
A warm bed and a shed that could shelter him from the wind and rain. He was very peaceful. It was not bad to have such a good home before he died.
“Old Wu, where are the girl and Gui You?”
Elder Niu looked at Old Wu and asked.
He frowned slightly and was a little worried. He was about to say something when Old Wu rolled his eyes at him. “I don’t know. Their feet are on them. Can I control them?”
“Minggu is free and unfettered. Before I finished my apprenticeship, my Master couldn’t control me. My girl had already finished her apprenticeship long ago. I don’t have anything to do with her. Everyone knows that our sect values independence. Even if she kills, arsons, and causes trouble, it has nothing to do with me.”
Old Wu stroked his beard.
Elder Niu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say. No matter what he said, it wasn’t right. In the end, he could only keep quiet.
Little Niu pondered for a moment and remembered that Su Xiaolu had said that she wanted to avenge him.
He had mixed feelings. He did not tell Su Xiaolu who that person was, so there was no karma.
And his Senior Sister was so smart. She knew what to do.

Gui You and Su Xiaolu entered Yulin county together. They bought a house and hired someone to renovate it.
Seeing that Su Xiaolu had no intention of going back, Gui You said, “Girl, have you thought it through?”
Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly at Gui You and said, “Master Gui You, I still have many extracted pills in my hands. These are all treasures now. It’s reasonable for me to sell some to fated people.”
A man’s wealth is his own ruin. Everyone should know that.
Little Niu’s suffering was one thing, but they owed it to Little Niu.
What she wanted to do was another matter. Business was consensual. It was the same even if the Heavenly Dao incarnated and wanted to buy her things.
She could sell her things to whoever she wanted and give them to whoever she wanted. Even the Heavenly Dao could not interfere.
The more capable one was, the more rice one could eat. Others only had a bowl-sized stomach, but they insisted on eating all the rice in a pot. It was no wonder that they were stuffed to death. After all, she was such a good person. Of course, she would remind the buyer to stop when the amount was appropriate.
If she had already said it, but the buyer refused to listen, she could not control them. She was not their mother or anything.
“Then do it.”
Gui You nodded and started to set up a stall with Su Xiaolu without another word.
It was no longer a secret that the world had changed, and the recovery of spiritual energy was no longer a secret. Although there was no such transaction, it did not mean that there would never be one. They were just the first sellers.
No matter what kind of business it was, someone had to be the first to sell it. They couldn’t say that the first person to sell it was guilty, right?
The girl had bad intentions and was like a sly old fox. She suited him very well.
The master and disciple hit it off right away. They immediately booked an inn, made a flag, and prepared to start their business.
Gui You waved his hand and wrote down the name of the business. It was simple and straightforward. There was only one sentence on it: “Spirit herbs obtained in the mystical realm, it can give people a chance to activate their special abilities.”
He and Su Xiaolu stood on the street. One of them had ice in his hand, and the other had a series of water bubbles in her hand.
Such blatant exposure of their special abilities really caused a stir. The entrance of the inn was filled with people in a few moments.
“Spirit herbs cost 1,000 taels each if you are fated. You can buy them for 10,000 taels each. If you hit me, you can take all the spirit herbs.”
Su Xiaolu’s voice was hearty and innocent. She immediately attracted attention.
This fair-faced child could probably be defeated with a single punch.
Immediately, people swarmed over and shouted that they wanted Su Xiaolu to taste the power of their fists.
Almost everyone went up.
However, before they could even touch her, a wall of water was erected in front of them.
A small but strong hand slapped them one by one.
“Clap clap clap clap clap…”
The sound of people being slapped in the face rose and fell. The water waves pushed people to the ground, and they immediately wailed.
The water wall disappeared. The young man revealed his white teeth and smiled brightly. He said heartily, “Everyone, please forgive us. Please leave. Everyone can spread the news and invite their relatives and friends to try their luck. Master and I will stay here for half a month before leaving. In this half a month, Master and I will wait for anyone to challenge us. Be it one-on-one or group battles, we will definitely not decline. I also guarantee that no one will be killed. If you can’t win by force, you can buy it with money.”
Su Xiaolu raised her hand and a stream of water brushed away. Soon, the disheveled people found themselves refreshed.
Looking at Su Xiaolu’s superpower to control water, their eyes were filled with fanatical envy.
Why didn’t such a good thing happen to them?
Although they were defeated, it did not calm the greed down. Instead, it aroused their desire to win.
Some people said that there was a relative in the family who was very strong. Even if he could not defeat this young man, he might be able to successfully hit him. He might be able to get a spirit herb after hitting him. He might be lucky.
