Chapter Eighteen: Linger's Birthday
Since Xiao Zhan came out of the conference room two days ago, he called everyone together again in the evening and issued two very strange orders. The first one was to vigorously purchase various medicinal materials, as long as they were related to healing.
All medicinal materials to stop bleeding or improve cultivation were purchased.
The second is that the Xiao family's industries have all shrunk, and all the industries that were originally planning to expand outside were forced to suspend. This series of actions directly consumed more than half of the Xiao family's savings over the past few decades. Although the family
Everyone was very confused, but no one asked why.
Even if someone asked, Xiao Zhan would not tell them. He only said that it was a secret and would be known in a few days. Today is a relatively festive day for the Xiao family. Today is the birthday of Xiao Ling'er, the daughter of the head of the family, Xiao Zhan.
, Xiao Ran has been waiting for this day for too long.
Today, everyone in the Xiao family has smiles on their faces, not only because of Ling'er's status in the Xiao family, but also because Ling'er's popularity in the Xiao family is very good, much better than Xiao Ran.
It's a thousand miles away, so Xiao Zhan simply held an intra-family dinner today.
In a bamboo hut on the southwest side of the city lord's palace, Xiao Ran was sitting on the table in the living room, playing with a set of tableware on the table with his right hand, while looking into the house from time to time.
Judging from the fragrance constantly wafting out of the bamboo house and the purple bed curtains and other objects, it can be clearly distinguished that this is a girl's house. Various things in the house are neatly arranged, and there are many rare things.
Many flowers and plants are placed in this house. These were all brought back by Xiao Ran from various places and given to Ling'er.
The owner of this bamboo house is the room of Xiao Zhan's daughter Ling'er. Since Ling'er was ten years old, it has been separated from Xiao Ran's room. Xiao Ran moved because he didn't like living with his father Xiao Zhan and others.
Away from here, the house where Xiao Ran originally lived was still vacant.
"Ling'er, get dressed up, it's been so long!" Xiao Ran said with a chuckle to the back room.
"Brother Xiao Ran, please wait a little longer. He's not healed yet. He'll be fine soon!" Ling'er's clear and cheerful voice came from inside the house, and then thin sounds continued to come from inside.
Looking bored, Xiao Ran looked around and kept looking around outside the house. In his previous life, Ling'er died this afternoon, and he died in a strange way in the abandoned courtyard behind the Xiao family. The condition of his death was even more...
It was so miserable that Xiao Ran came to Ling'er's room early in the morning today in order to avoid the tragedy in his previous life from happening again.
Xiao Ran now not only has confidence but also has the strength. Just last night, Xiao Ran's long-suppressed cultivation could no longer be suppressed and had to break through again to reach the eighth level of swordsman. And Xiao Ran's body, after so many days of medicine,
Through tempering and tempering his own true energy from the inside out, he has already reached the peak of the Great Swordsman. Now Xiao Ran is confident that he can fight with the Great Swordsman with his physical body alone. If he adds true energy and
With his own swordsmanship, Xiao Ran would still have the confidence to give it a try even if a swordsman or even a great swordsman came.
I have to say that the girl was very slow to dress up. She probably had to wait for close to a cup of tea again before the sound of light footsteps came from the room.
Turning around, he saw a girl wearing a lavender robe and a green hairpin with a smile on her face. She rushed in front of Xiao Ran. Her rouge-free face changed because she ran away or saw Xiao Ran.
She was red and looked very cute. Her long hair that reached her waist was simply tied up. She looked less shy and more agile, which made Xiao Ran slightly stunned.
"Brother Xiao Ran, what's wrong?" Ling'er ran to Xiao Ran and saw Xiao Ran looking at him in a daze. He thought something had happened to him, so he was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head and looked around.
Xiao Ran, who came back to his senses in an instant, looked at Ling'er in a funny way and chuckled: "I was wondering why our Ling'er is so beautiful. Come and hold her for your brother!" Xiao Ran teased.
"Okay!" After Xiao Ran's words fell, a gust of fragrant wind blew into his nostrils, but the Keren'er opposite had already fallen into Xiao Ran's arms.
Hugging the still soft body, Xiao Ran felt warm in his heart, and at the same time, he strengthened his belief in protecting his loved ones.
"Okay, you are such a big person, and you are still so young. Come down quickly!" Xiao Ran said speechlessly. At this moment, Ling'er, who was already fifteen years old, was hanging on Xiao Ran's body, almost
It strangled Xiao Ran so much that he couldn't breathe, so Xiao Ran had to say something.
"Okay!" The little girl stuck out her tongue playfully, then turned around and walked outside the house, saying as she walked: "Brother Xiao Ran, didn't you say you wanted to take me to play today? It's still early for the dinner anyway, so take me
Let’s go have some fun?”
"Yeah!" Xiao Ran chuckled and caught up with Ling'er who was leaving outside. Then the two of them slowly walked away, straight out of Xiao's house and towards the street.
Walking on the street, Xiao Ran and Ling'er slowly walked towards the flower and plant market in Tianwu City. There were all kinds of flowers and plants there, and girls must like them very much. With Xiao Ran's affection for girls,
Understood, naturally I took Ling'er there directly.
Walking on the street, countless people on the road were looking at the two of them. There was no way, Xiao Ran was very handsome. This was a fact, but he was a bit notorious, so no one looked at him. Everyone looked at him.
All focused on Ling'er.
Ling'er's already very pretty little face coupled with her deliberate dressing up today, and walking on the street wearing a purple Luo shirt, the passers-by beside her pale in comparison, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she has become the focus of everyone's attention.
However, Ling'er himself didn't notice this. After finally coming out, he naturally had a lot of fun, and Xiao Ran didn't care anymore. However, Xiao Ran's eyes looked around with caution, and his own spirit
The power even enveloped everything within a radius of ten feet.
Although doing this consumes Xiao Ran's mental energy, for Ling'er, this small amount of mental energy is still worth it.
Because the City Lord's Mansion is on the edge of Tianwu City, the flower market is also on the edge of Tianwu City. The two are very close to each other. It took only a while for the two of them to arrive at the so-called flower market.
After turning a small corner, a huge semicircular door appeared in their eyes, just like an ordinary arch bridge, but the difference is that the arc door is full of flowers, which looks really good-looking.
, Ling'er couldn't help but stop moving forward.
"Let's go!" Xiao Ran chuckled from behind: "There are more beautiful ones inside. If you like it, I will buy it for you!"
"Really?" Ling'er said with eyes shining.
"nature!"
Hearing Xiao Ran's words, Ling'er immediately walked inside, the flower market. There were not only all kinds of beautiful flowers and plants, but also medicinal materials and rare trees dug from the Warcraft Forest. These things were gathered together to form
A market that is no less than the magic trading market. Most of the trading sources of the entire Tianwu City come from these markets.
