Chapter 241： ：Bank notes delivered to your door

Passers-by commented a lot on the passing carriages, and their envy and jealousy were beyond words.

Shen Yizhi couldn't listen to what those people behind him said anymore. The words "King Chen's adopted sister" kept echoing in his ears.

Okay, when did Gu Xueting take in a foster sister? The brother and sister are really affectionate!

How come he never told her? Was it deliberately concealed, or was it forgotten? Or do you feel there is no need to tell her?

Shen Yizhi had to admit that he was very jealous and even had the urge to turn around and rush back to Prince Chen's Mansion to question Gu Xueting.

However, she finally suppressed it.

She could feel Gu Xueting's feelings for her, so how could she doubt him just because of a few comments from passers-by? Isn't the most important thing between lovers just trust?

But the truth is such that I still feel very uncomfortable.

She stared at the chariot, and with a move of her fingertips, the gauze curtain was blown open, revealing an elegant and beautiful face.

As if aware of being watched, the people inside also looked over, and their eyes met for a moment.

Shen Yizhi looked away without any disturbance, feeling calmer.

It’s not that she’s boasting, but in terms of looks alone, she can beat that girl Pei Qi by a starry sky, okay?

Although it is a bit narcissistic to say this, she is indeed good-looking. Why shouldn't she be narcissistic?

Pei Yuan, who was walking in the chariot, looked at the strange-looking man. For some reason, the moment she met her eyes, she felt a sense of fright, as if that man would pose a great threat to her.

Obviously she didn’t even know that person.

But I feel uneasy for no reason.

"Hua Yuan, go find out about that person." Pei Yuan ordered in a low voice.

There was a "yes" in the air.

In the elegant room facing the window of Wangjiang Building on the street, Gu Heng held a wine glass and glanced out casually. At this glance, he stood up suddenly and said, "My benefactor!"

After a moment, Shen Yizhi looked at the master and servant who were standing in front of him, and searched in his memory. Wasn't this the two people he saved on the Jinlong River that day?

“My benefactor, I finally found you!” Gu Heng said excitedly.

Remembering that he had gained 2 merit points for saving this man last time, Shen Yizhi decided to give him a chance to repay himself.

You should know that if an average person is rescued, they can only provide a few tenths of merit points, which can only be exchanged for a few points.

The person in front of me is dozens or hundreds of times larger than an ordinary person. What does this mean? It shows that this person has a lot of luck.

If this is the world in a book, then this person is at least a character who can show his face, rather than a background panel or a passerby.



So Shen Yizhi decided to get acquainted with him. She got off her horse and pointed to a tavern on the roadside, "Go in and talk."

Gu Heng and Xie Chong followed closely behind.

The tavern is not very big, and there are no separate private rooms. There are several screens set up between the seats as a barrier.

After sitting down, Shen Yizhi set up a soundproof barrier. Just as Gu Heng was about to speak, the waiter came over with enthusiasm and asked, "What would you like to order?"

Gu Heng casually ordered a few dishes and dismissed the waiter, "My dear friend, last time you—"

The waiter brought me another pot of free tea and a smiling face.

Gu Heng frowned and ordered Xie Chong, and Xie Chong stood outside the screen to prevent the waiter from disturbing him again.

The exciting opening remarks were interrupted again and again, and Gu Heng's mood had calmed down a bit, "My dear friend, thank you for saving me last time. Otherwise, my life would have been in danger. Please accept my gratitude."

He stood up and bowed deeply to Shen Yizhi.

Shen Yizhi raised his hand and lifted him up out of thin air, "It's just a matter of convenience. There is no need to mention the word benefactor again. You call me old for nothing. My surname is Shen and I am the third in the family."

"Brother Shen." Gu Heng immediately climbed up the pole and said, "My surname is Gu, and I work as a waiter at home. You can call me waiter or something."

waiter? Shen Yizhi couldn't help laughing. Gu Heng also realized that this title was somewhat ambiguous and felt embarrassed.

He took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Shen Yizhi, "This is one hundred thousand taels. I hope Brother Shen doesn't mind it. I know you don't like this small amount of money, but when you are walking outside, sometimes money still matters." Very useful.”

How could Shen Yizhi dislike it? With a flick of her hand, the pile of banknotes disappeared, and she put them into a large box in a space specially designed to store money.

This hand made Gu Heng feel envious and respectful.

“In addition, my mother told me that if I am lucky enough to meet Brother Shen again, I will give this to you.”

Gu Heng handed over another long box, with an elixir lying inside. It was about two hundred years old and was in good condition.

"Well, your mother is interested. This elixir is worth no less than one hundred thousand taels."

Shen Yizhi closed the lid to prevent the spiritual energy from leaking.

"It's good if Third Brother Shen likes it." Gu Heng was very happy when he accepted it, and suggested: "Mom really wants to thank Third Brother in person. I wonder if Third Brother has time?"

Shen Yizhi shook his head: "There's no need to meet. I've already accepted the banknotes and the elixir. I don't need to worry about saving my life."

 Gu Heng looked disappointed. He finally saw his benefactor, but he wondered if there would be a chance to see him again after this farewell.

Shen Yizhi stood up and said, "Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't stay any longer. Seeing as you have been stuck on the third level of Qi Refining for a long time, this bottle of barrier-breaking liquid may be effective for you."

Shen Yizhi left a bottle of barrier-breaking liquid on the table and walked out.

Gu Heng held the medicine bottle in his hand: "Third brother—"

Shen Yizhi paused, "Can I ask you a favor?"

“Third brother, just say it!”

"If there is any news about heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the future, help me pay more attention to them. This is a messenger talisman."

Cast the net widely to catch more fish.

Gu Heng seemed to be overjoyed after getting the task. He grabbed the messenger talisman in his hand and said, "Don't worry, I will help you pay more attention."

This time Shen Yizhi really left, and there were no more twists and turns on the road.

Hua Yuan returned to Pei Yuan and said to her: "That man is a monk. I can't see through his cultivation, so I don't dare to get too close. He seems to have an old relationship with the second prince who just returned to Beijing. The second prince is in the street." He stopped him and the two went into a tavern on the roadside to talk for about a quarter of an hour. He set up a barrier and I couldn't hear the content of their conversation. "

Pei Yuan listened thoughtfully.

When Shen Yizhi returned to Lijiazhuang, it was only 10 o'clock in the morning.

Although I have only been away for two or three days, the moment I came back, I still felt like a fallen leaf returning to its roots. It was indeed better to be at home.

Although the imperial capital is prosperous enough, she is still a passer-by and is not as comfortable as staying at home.

Since he went out in the name of collecting medicine, Shen Yizhi had to show off at all costs, so he went to Qingmang Mountain and picked a basket of medicine along the way, before leading Nian Nian back to the village.

When going down the mountain, she accidentally glanced and found that a forest to the north of the village had been cut down. At the moment, a group of people were busy inside, seeming to be building.

Those people don’t seem to be from the village?
