The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 944 "That's a bit pitiful~"

Ginseng Fruit dropped her previous agreeable demeanor and glanced at the old lady: "Can we still sign a contract now?"

The old lady knew she hadn't misjudged them; even at this point, these people still wanted to sign the contract.

Mingyue and her daughter finally have a way out.

"Yes, yes, my son has already called the people over. If these people hadn't suddenly appeared, we would have already signed the agreement."

The old lady was shrewd; she knew this tenant was no ordinary person, so she immediately became assertive.

The middle-aged man, looking disheveled, listened to the ginseng fruit's words, and although he was very dissatisfied, he dared not say anything more.

"Alright, all you bystanders, get out!"

The dragon spirit finally withdrew its oppressive aura, and the middle-aged man immediately felt the pressure on his body disappear.

He quickly got up, turned around and ran away with his men, as if they would lose their lives if they were even a step later.

When the contract was signed, Ginseng Fruit took out the pearls that Dragon Spirit had prepared beforehand.

"Do you want this pearl, or do you want to exchange it for money?"

Ginseng Fruit knew this family was in a bad situation, so it gave them a choice.

The person who came to sign the contract stared wide-eyed at the pearls that Ginseng Fruit had brought out, probably because he had never seen pearls of such high quality before.

"We want pearls!"

Long Ling had already walked away, but his ears perked up.

I wonder if the people here will be as clueless as those before.

Fortunately, these people weren't so clueless as to not know what they were missing, which made Long Ling feel instantly pleased.

He always said that good things will never go unnoticed.

After the contract was signed, the old lady left immediately, and the previously noisy courtyard became quiet.

The little paper figures that had been hiding all flew out and began diligently cleaning the area.

Their owner was injured, so they had to clean the whole place thoroughly, leaving not a single speck of dust behind!

The little paper figure was busy as a bee, and Ginseng Fruit also took out some gold and silver treasures that he had collected before, preparing to exchange them for some money in this world.

This world, with its less developed industry, might still have plenty of high-quality medicinal herbs to find.

"Host, I'm all packed. I'm going out to take a look around and buy some things."

Yun Ran nodded, took out the ginseng fruit into a small box, and went out.

Seeing Yun Ran sitting under the tree, Long Ling asked curiously, "What's so interesting about this tree? You've looked at it several times already."

"You've seen trees that have become sentient before, but those trees didn't really attract your attention."

Long Ling was genuinely puzzled, wondering what was so interesting about a tree that had become a spirit.

He was born and raised in nature.
"There are many trees that have become spirits, but this is the first time I've seen one that has become a spirit yet pretends that it hasn't developed any intelligence. It's just a bit strange."

Upon hearing this, Long Ling realized that if that were the case, it did indeed seem rather strange.

However, he wasn't the type to try to guess what he wanted to know; he would just ask directly.

Long Ling strode forward and slapped his palm onto the trunk of the tree.

The tree trembled, feeling that it was truly doomed.

"Hey, you're practically a spirit now, why are you pretending you haven't even developed any intelligence?"

The tree continued to play dead; it would never admit it, even if it died.

For a long time, not even the leaves trembled. Long Ling suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It was rare for him to ask in such a kind tone, and this was with Yun Ran present.

If he were alone, he would have already grabbed the tree with his claw, not caring what the tree thought.

"Hey, that's funny, they're treating my words like they're nothing!"

"Perhaps it's related to what the little paper doll said before. The Xuan Masters here are exceptionally ruthless towards demons and monsters."

If such a powerful tree, now possessed by a spirit, were to exhibit any unusual behavior, it would likely be uprooted by those mystical masters in the next moment.

Upon hearing Yun Ran's words, Long Ling immediately recalled what the little paper doll had said earlier.

He frowned. In Long Ling's understanding, even spirits and monsters had the right to walk in the human world.

Just like him, because he is strong enough, even though he is not human, he can still enjoy some of the rights of a human being.

Now, because of human 'greed', this tree, which has clearly become a spirit, can only pretend, which is hard for the dragon spirit to accept.

"That's a bit pitiful~"

After thinking for a moment, Long Ling took out a talisman that could conceal his aura and inserted it directly into the trunk of the tree.

"That's great, no need to disguise it, and no one else will be able to tell."

Yunran watched the whole thing without intervening, refusing, or even offering much of an opinion, letting Longling do as she pleased.

After Long Ling finished doing all this, she turned to look at Yun Ran.

"Don't you have anything to say?"

What do I need to say?

Yun Ran's words left Long Ling speechless; he felt that Yun Ran was becoming increasingly incomprehensible to him.

Don't you think I'm meddling in other people's business?

Yun Ran put down the book in her hand, her eyes indifferent, as if this was not a big deal in her eyes at all.

"If you want to help and have the ability to help, that's your business. As long as you don't cause trouble for others, then it's up to you."

If you need my help, then you will naturally need to ask for my opinion.

Now that you've finished, asking me these questions is completely pointless.

Dragon Spirit: ...

He disliked Yun Ran for spouting these platitudes; she was just like an old charlatan!

If Yunran knew that in Long Ling's heart, she would be like an old charlatan.

She would definitely tell Long Ling that she used to have a nickname, "Little Charlatan."

To be a charlatan, you have to use these platitudes, especially seemingly plausible ones, to gain people's trust.

If you just tell the truth, people will think you're a fool, and you won't be able to attract any customers.

Long Ling looked Yun Ran up and down, and suddenly became curious about what would happen when Yun Ran got older and her face was full of wrinkles.

If I keep saying these mystical things, won't people think I'm some kind of unparalleled master?

"I think we need to integrate into this world as soon as possible. If you dress up and go out as a charlatan, that should be the quickest way."

Long Ling had even already figured out what to prepare for Yun Ran.

The Xuan Master has a high status in this world, so it's best to act as a Xuan Master. Anyway, anyone can endure hardship, but he doesn't.
