Chapter 2: Twists and turns

Xiao Ling smiled. It seemed that Liu Mei was frightened by him and believed what he said.

He is not afraid that Liu Mei will ask Aunt Lin for confirmation, and then Aunt Lin will not admit that she took something.

Because Mrs. Lin really didn’t take it.

The ring finger was now quietly placed on his bed, gently pressed by the pillow.

But will Liu Mei believe it?

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will only take root and flourish, rarely with clear explanations.

And Liu Mei was right, the original owner had no intention of leaving the Xiao family to a brothel girl.

She was purely a fertility tool. If Liu Mei hadn't tried every means to please the original owner over the years, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape the dismal ending.

She is a dispensable concubine, and it is simply a fantasy to completely inherit the Xiao family.

Only if Xiao Ling makes a will and appoints her to take over the Xiao family, otherwise the Xiao family will not be a decoration.

So it was right for her to strike first.

but……

What does Xiao Ling have to do with him?

"Go and find something for me, and that thing is at Xiao's house."

"As long as you can find it, I promise you to retrieve the will and ask the elders of the family to witness the re-draft of the will."

"After I die, you will be the serious master of the Xiao family!"

Seeing the hesitation in Liu Mei's eyes, Xiao Ling continued with the next dose of strong medicine: "I can even give you to Wang Shuo."

"Let you be together in a legitimate manner!"

"But you have to hurry up, because I don't have much time."

Wang Shuo, who had been silent behind Liu Mei, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand slightly to pull the corner of Liu Mei's clothes.

Liu Mei has obviously moved, and this is the best outcome for her.

If Xiao Ling grits her teeth and refuses to let go, she will still have to worry about dealing with other immortals in the Xiao family clan.

Now you can get the will without any effort, which is naturally the best result.

The most important thing is that she can be with Wang Shuo openly and no longer fear that one day she will be caught and put in a pig pen.

"What are you looking for?"

Xiao Ling took out a completed drawing from his side. The ink on it was not completely dry yet, and he could tell at a glance that it had just been drawn.

"I've seen this thing before!"

Liu Mei's words made Xiao Ling instantly overjoyed, and even his heavy heart became excited.

"Have you seen it, where?"

"As long as you find this box for me..."

"I, Xiao Ling, keep my word. The Xiao family will leave it to you and give you to Wang Shuo."

"When the time comes, your deed of betrayal will also be given to you, and I will leave the Xiao family for the rest of my life, so I don't need to trouble you to collect my body."

The three words "deed of selling oneself" are like magical powers that make Liu Mei haunt her.

After calming down, Liu Mei left a word and turned around to leave: "Brother Shuo, keep an eye on him. He is not allowed to leave until I come back!"

By the time she finished speaking, she had already walked out of the side room. It seemed that Xiao Ling's words really excited her.

Xiao Ling and Wang Shuo were the only two people left in the side room. Xiao Ling simply leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. People always get tired easily as they get older.

Wang Shuo wanted to say something, but seeing that Xiao Ling obviously didn't want to talk, he had to give up.

There was an eerie silence in the side room for a while, without the previous tense atmosphere.

Fortunately, Liu Mei did not keep Xiao Ling waiting for long, and soon came back with a wooden box in her arms.

Hearing the sound, Xiao Ling opened his eyes and stared at the wooden box, and the deeply buried memories came back to his mind.

This thing was passed down from his ancestors!

It is said that an ancestor rescued a Taoist priest who was injured and unconscious, but the Taoist man could not hold on and died that night.

The things in the wooden box were originally carried by Taoist Youfang, and were collected and placed in the wooden box by Xiaoling's ancestors.

Originally, the things were cremated together with the Taoist, but after the Taoist turned into ashes, three things remained.

Ancestor Xiao Ling thought it was some kind of treasure, so he picked it up carefully.

Xiao Ling was naughty when she was a child. She once accidentally opened a wooden box while rummaging through boxes at home.

Inside was a small bag made of unknown leather, an animal skin with small words written on it, and a bottle containing three black pills.

Because they didn't know their function, the Xiao family kept these things on the shelf. Over time, even Xiao Ling himself forgot about them.

I don’t know where Liu Mei found this thing. Fortunately, Liu Mei found it, otherwise Xiao Ling wouldn’t have much time to wait.

The wooden box had been opened, and Liu Mei had obviously inspected the items inside.

"Master, can you tell me what this is?"

A delicate voice came from Liu Mei's mouth, and she looked at Xiao Ling expectantly.

Liu Mei was like this in the past. She tried her best in front of the original owner, and basically the original owner would agree to her as long as Liu Mei made a fuss.

Wang Shuo, who was behind Liu Mei, frowned, as if he was disgusted with Liu Mei's behavior.

"Stop pretending to be Liu Mei, don't you think this is disgusting?"

"Your goal is nothing more than the entire Xiao family. I promised to give you all these things. Now give me the wooden box."

Liu Mei's face turned a bit ugly due to being squeezed by Xiao Ling, and she couldn't help but snorted:

"Why should I give you the wooden box? I have found the items, but where is your will?"

"Stop talking nonsense there, I, Liu Mei, am not that stupid."

Xiao Ling frowned slightly. He also knew that it would be unrealistic to ask Liu Mei to hand over the wooden box. The reason why he spoke out was just to give it a try.

After a moment of pause, Xiao Ling said:

"In this case, give me one of the pills in the jade bottle first!"

"Then you go ask the elders of the clan to come over, and I will make a new will in person."

"What do you think if you give me the remaining things then?"

Liu Mei hesitated a little, but couldn't think of anything wrong with it.

She knew that Xiao Ling's physical condition was the result of hanging his neck and waiting for death.

Even if this pill is effective for him, it will not make Xiao Ling regain his youth, so it is most likely that Xiao Ling was ill and sought medical treatment urgently.

After combing through it carefully again, Liu Mei felt that there was no problem, so she opened the wooden box, took out the jade bottle and poured out a pill.

I don’t know what the pill is made of, but it smells of a refreshing fragrance.

Taking two steps forward, Liu Mei placed the pill in Xiao Ling's dry palm.

Then he quickly took two steps back, seemingly feeling that Xiao Ling's current appearance was terrifying.

"I've done everything you said. I hope you won't play any tricks."

"I'm going to ask the elders of the clan to come over and bear witness. After this is done, we will have nothing to do with each other, and the Xiao family will be mine from now on."

Xiao Ling waved his hand: "Okay, go ahead!"

At this time, his mind was completely on Yaowan. After a brief perfunctory response, Liu Mei lowered his head and looked at Yaowan.

A blurry picture flashed through his mind, in which a figure was sitting cross-legged.

The picture flashed away, and Xiao Ling could not see anything.

However, his sixth sense did not warn him, indicating that the pill was not dangerous to him.

Liu Mei and Wang Shuo had already left with the wooden box in their arms, and Xiao Ling swallowed the pills after a moment's thought.

The pill melted in the mouth, and a huge heat flow spread throughout the body.

Xiao Ling's body was like a land that had been experiencing drought for a long time, absorbing these energies violently.

effective!

Xiao Ling was overjoyed. His body understood it. In just a few breaths, he had never felt so good.

He even felt that his hands and feet were full of strength and no longer had that lifeless state.

Be sure to get the remaining two pills!

I just don’t know if I give the Xiao family to Liu Mei, will Liu Mei leave her as a hidden danger?

There was a strong tingling sensation in his mind, and Xiao Ling's smiling face instantly sank.

"Shou Yuan, Shou Yuan!"

Xiao Ling's face turned gloomy as he muttered to himself.

The pills were indeed effective, and the effect was surprisingly good, but they did not cure the root cause of the problem for Xiao Ling.

The effect of the medicine was only to restore his body's functions, but his life span was depleted. How could it be the same?

"Hide!"

"Yes, there are also animal skins!"

The pills and the animal skin should be matching, maybe it is some kind of cultivation method, as long as you break through the realm, you can increase your longevity.
