Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Okay, let's continue shopping. I have to keep my elixirs as a reserve. Wouldn't it be too troublesome if I sell them out and have no use for them?"

Lin Yi quickly persuaded Shangguan Laner, and then pulled her away directly.

Although Lin Yi didn't care about the elixirs, after all, there were many elixirs and herbs in them that needed to be consumed, so she could no longer let her play with them.

"Junior brother, you are really boring. Forget it, I'll give you these Lingyu Cards and let's go shopping!"

Shangguan Laner pouted, but immediately became happy again and handed the Lingyu Card to Lin Yi.

"Take it, you earned it from selling the elixirs, just think of it as money for shopping today!"

Lin Yi smiled faintly. He naturally wouldn't care about these millions of spiritual jade. Not only that, he also casually took out the reward ring: "This is the assessment reward ring. I originally wanted to give it to you directly. Then I put it next to me and forgot about it for a while, take it and put the Ling Jade Card in it too."

"Send it to me? Junior brother, you are still very good!"

Shangguan Laner suddenly became happy. She would not be polite to Lin Yi, not to mention the value of the things Lin Yi gave her. As long as it was from him, even if it was a grass ring woven from a piece of grass. , which is also the most precious grass ring in the world.

I put the ring on my hand happily. The ring has the ability to adjust itself. It can be adjusted to the most suitable position immediately, which is very convenient.

"It's very beautiful. Junior Brother Lin Yi, thank you! Come on, Junior Sister, I'll treat you to dinner and shopping!"

Shangguan Laner stretched out her palm and gestured left and right to look at the ring, feeling as if she had been filled with honey.

"Little girl, I just heard that the Yangxuan Pill you bought was made from the Sea Beast Inner Pill? I wonder who made it? Can you introduce me to it?"

The two of them had just walked a few steps when an old man in Taoist robes came out and stopped them, wanting to ask about the Yangxuan Pill.

"Who are you? I don't know you!"

Shangguan Laner is just naive and simple, not stupid. Naturally, she will not answer honestly when someone pops up to ask questions. Moreover, this involves Lin Yi, so she will naturally remain vigilant enough.

"I am an alchemist in this mountain area. I am very interested in what you said about the alchemy of sea beasts. If I could get to know that alchemist, I would definitely thank you."

The old man in Taoist robes answered with a kind-hearted smile, and frankly said that he was interested in refining the sea beast's inner elixir.

It's a pity that Lin Yi has no interest in him. Now he just wants to go shopping with Shangguan Lan'er.

"I'm sorry, we don't know who refined those elixirs. In fact, these elixirs were trophies after one of our battles. We don't even know who we got them from. As for the person who refined them, we certainly don't know either. Because those elixirs are of no use to us. If we put them up for auction or find a big store to sell them, we can get more spiritual jades, but in that case, the chance of being discovered will be higher, so that’s why On a temporary basis, I set up a stall here to deal with it."

Lin Yi stopped in front of Shangguan Lan'er and kept talking nonsense without changing his expression.

Not to mention, it sounds like that! At least the old man in Taoist robes had a disappointed look on his face, and seemed to believe it.

Otherwise, there is really no reason to dispose of so many special-grade Xuan Yang pills so simply, and they would be sold like cabbage on the roadside.

"By the way, since you don't know who made them, how do you know that those Xuan Yang Dan are made from the inner elixir of sea beasts?"

The old man in Taoist robes suddenly changed the subject, thinking he had found a flaw in Lin Yi's words.

"Because I have eaten it! I have also eaten the Yangxuan Pill refined from Yangxuan Grass. Although the two pills have similar effects, there are some subtle differences, especially the one made from the Sea Beast Inner Pill. There will obviously be a fishy smell of sea water, I will never be mistaken.”

Lin Yi showed a big smile, and his words were very convincing.

The old man in Taoist robes was suddenly speechless. After Lin Yi explained to this extent, he really couldn't think of anything wrong. And seeing that Lin Yi answered casually without any hesitation, he shouldn't be lying.

What he didn't know was that Lin Yi had already thought out all his words before speaking, and had taken preventive measures including possible omissions, so the old man in the Taoist robe could not find any evidence that Lin Yi was lying.

"Okay, we still have to eat. If nothing happens, we'll leave first!"

Lin Yi smiled slightly and pulled Shangguan Lan'er around the old man in Taoist robes. He was too lazy to explain to the old man about the sea beast's inner elixir, so he just told him a lie and dismissed him.

Rather than talking nonsense with this old man, it would be more interesting to go shopping with Shangguan Laner.

"Junior Brother Lin Yi, why don't we tell him the truth? Does this matter need to be kept secret? Then wouldn't I get you into trouble if I told you just now?"

After they were far away, Shangguan Laner sent a worried message to Lin Yi.

"Nothing, nothing to keep secret, it's just that I don't want to talk to him. He wanted to ask us something, but he didn't even tell us his name. He only said that he was an alchemist in the mountain area. Who knows who he is? ? I will pay less attention to this kind of people from now on, it would be more fun for us to go shopping."

Lin Yi smiled slightly, and while comforting Shangguan Laner, he also explained why he ignored the old man in Taoist robes.

Shangguan Lan'er recalled carefully and found that the old man in Taoist robes did not say who he was, and he did not ask Lin Yi and Shangguan Lan'er's names. He went straight to refining the Yangxuan Pill and the Sea Beast Inner Pill. This kind of person does have ulterior motives, so it is right to ignore him.

"You're right, let's ignore boring people like this from now on. Let's go, little senior sister will take you to eat something delicious first!"

Shangguan Laner's mood immediately improved. She was always so cheerful. This was what Lin Yi admired most about her.

Just when they said they should ignore boring people, unexpectedly another one appeared in front of them!

"Junior Sister Lan'er, Junior Brother Lin Yi, what a coincidence, you are also shopping. It's rare for Senior Brother to meet you every time he goes out. What a fate. How about walking together?"

This boring person knew without asking that it was Yang Dian.

"Senior Brother Yang Dian, please call me Junior Sister Shangguan. You can't call me Lan'er!"

Shangguan Laner frowned slightly and corrected Yang Dian's title unceremoniously.

You used to call me Junior Sister Shangguan, but now you call me Junior Sister Laner? When did you become so familiar with him?
