Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation, I became a role model of righteousness

Chapter 31 You treat the prison cell as your own home!
“I remember Madam Liu said that you set out three months ago.

Jiangcheng is not far from Leidi City, how come you found Lei Wuji to challenge him three months later? " This is the question that puzzled Jiang Li the most.

Meng Jue looked away and said, "I have been practicing in the mountains for the past three months. I don't know how long I have been there."

Jiang Li (￢_￢): Cultivating in the mountains? Can you please stop feeling guilty when you say that?

Knowing that he didn't want to say, Jiang Li simply didn't ask.

"Well, I just heard you say that you were arrested for eating a free meal, didn't the Liu family give you any spirit stones?
Why would you eat a free meal? "

Jiang Li thought of how much Madam Liu valued Meng Jue.

For Meng Jue, he even went to ask his ex for help.

No matter how you look at it, there is no way that he would not give Meng Jue the Lingshi Flower.

Meng Jue was silent for a moment, then said, "I gave it to you, but I didn't want it."

"Oh." Jiang Li nodded without asking him why he didn't want it.

If it were her, if someone gave her money, she would definitely take it, and use both hands.

"Did the jailer tell me how long you'll be locked up? I'll have to stay here for another half a month. If you get out earlier than me, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for me for a few days."

Jiang Li thought that the other party was just eating a free meal, so he thought that he should be able to get out in a few days at most.

“Same as you, also half a month.

But because I owed spirit stones, even if I left the dungeon in half a month, I would have to work in the city to pay off my debt.

You can't leave until the debt is paid off." Meng Jue said.

In other words, he couldn't leave Thunder Emperor City until he paid off the spirit stones he owed.

"How many spirit stones do you owe?" Jiang Li sighed in his heart. The free meals in the world of immortal cultivation are not free.

You have to sit in jail and you have to return the spirit stone.

"Two thousand low-grade spirit stones, originally it was two thousand one, but the shopkeeper cut off the remainder."

"Two thousand low-grade spirit stones! What did you eat to produce so many spirit stones?"

Jiang Li looked at him in disbelief. This kid had no idea about his storage bag. He dared to order such expensive food when he had no money!
"Brother, you wouldn't have patronized the Donglai Pavilion on the street, right?" The handsome brother suddenly interrupted as if he had thought of something.

Meng Jue nodded. He remembered that the store was indeed called this name.

"Brother, what can I say about you?

That shop is notoriously expensive, so those of us who are independent practitioners have to take a detour when we get to the vicinity of Donglai Pavilion, for fear of accidentally going to the wrong place.

You dared to go in and eat, no wonder you were arrested for eating a free meal." The handsome man said with a click of his tongue.

"I didn't know that store was so expensive." Meng Jue looked innocent.

If he knew that the things in Donglai Pavilion were so expensive, he would not go even if invited.

He didn't have many spirit stones on him, and although Aunt Liu would give him some, he had already troubled Aunt Liu enough.

He didn't want to eat and take things at the Liu family, and Aunt Liu knew what he was thinking, so she never forced him to accept anything she gave him.

"Okay, don't say anything, just pay me back honestly.

The Donglai Pavilion is not someone you can easily mess with, as the owner behind it is the city lord's wife.

With the support of the city lord's wife, you cannot leave Thunder Emperor City until you pay off your debt.

Brother, accept your fate, work hard, and you will be able to pay back the spiritual stones you owe in a few years."

The handsome brother patted Meng Jue on the shoulder and sighed.

"I can pay off the spiritual stones in a few years..."

'several years……'

Meng Jue felt his scalp tingling when he thought about having to spend several years working to pay off his debts.

"Big sister, can you lend me some spirit stones?"

He looked at Jiang Li, hope flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Li: ...

Haha, this is what you call Senior Sister.

"No." Jiang Li's face was grim. The light in Meng Jue's eyes went out.

"Although I don't have any spirit stones to lend you, I can help you contact Madam Liu." Madam Liu would probably be happy to pay back Meng Jue's money.

"No!" But Meng Jue rejected the suggestion without thinking.

"We can't trouble Aunt Liu." He said seriously.

Jiang Li didn't force it, "Then we can only look for our master, but the master is in seclusion, I don't know if we can contact him."

Jiang Li wasn't really sure that he could contact that person.

If it really doesn't work, she can just contact the wealthy woman Zhang Ruonan.

Zhang Ruonan should have two thousand spirit stones on him.

Not sure, I'll ask when the time comes.

Although Meng Jue didn't want to owe anyone a favor, two thousand spirit stones could not be earned in a short time. He could only nod and agree to this plan after hesitating for a moment.

Because he still had to stay in jail for another half a month, Jiang Li didn't want to put himself in a difficult position.

She took the time to tidy up her cell, ignoring the simple wooden bed.

With a wave of her hand, she placed a soft couch in the cell.

There was a quilt on the couch.

Then a small square table and a small stool were placed next to the couch.

Finally, I put a few side dishes on the table, planning to have a good meal later.

Even in prison, you can't let yourself be wronged.

When the patrolling prison guard came to her side, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw the drastically changed cell.

"You treat this cell as your own home!" He has been a prison guard for so long, and this is the first time he has seen a prisoner with such a big heart.

"You didn't say I can't arrange it myself." Jiang Li looked innocent.

However, Jiang Li was also sensible and gave two spirit stones to the jailer as hush money.

The jailer took the money, his expression finally softened, and he ignored her.

After the jailer left, Jiang Li sat on a small stool and drank and ate. If you didn't know her, you would think she was here for a picnic.

"Girl, give me something to eat." The handsome guy licked Jiang Li's face and begged for food.

At the same time, he secretly regretted in his heart that he should have prepared more food in his storage bag earlier.

If he had been prepared, he wouldn't have to just watch others eat while he drooled.

What a bad decision!

"You are in jail right now, can you please be more aware?

Letting you go to jail is to make you reflect on your mistakes, not to let you eat and drink to your heart's content." Jiang Li looked at him disapprovingly.

"Then why are you eating? Why are you putting so many things in the prison!" The handsome brother pointed at the things Jiang Li had arranged and the delicacies on the table unconvinced.

"How could I be the same? I have reflected on it, and I did nothing wrong." He said this with such confidence.

Handsome Brother: ...Is it my fault?
"Senior Sister, what about me? Can you give me some?" Meng Jue also felt a little hungry. After hesitating for a moment, he still spoke to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li put down his chopsticks and looked at him in disbelief. "You've already eaten a feast worth two thousand spirit stones, and you're still not full? Aren't you afraid of eating too much to death?"

Meng Jue: ...

After dinner, Jiang Li fell asleep.

In fact, I let my consciousness enter the training room and practice spells a hundred times a day, but I haven't done it today.

Jiang Li was full and satisfied, but Meng Jue and Mei Nan were suffering.

These two did not bring any food with them and could only eat the meals provided by the prison.

How good can prison food be?

A bowl of multi-grain porridge, plus a mixed flour steamed bun.

There are only these two things, nothing else, not even a small pickle.
