Chapter 173 Helping others is the foundation of happiness

"Hey, I'm talking to this old man!"

"You can talk to Brother Ran, so you must be a strong man. Treating a young and ignorant girl like this is a bit unbecoming of a strong man, isn't it?"

Hai Bodong was slightly stunned and his expression darkened slightly.

He slowly raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yan, then looked at Xiao Ran again, and asked with a smile,

"My dear Xiao Ran, may I ask who this kid next to you is..."

Xiao Ran's eyes turned and he was about to say that he didn't know him.

Xiao Yan had already stepped forward and said,

"Brother Ran is my elder brother, we have the same father!"

"Oh! So you are Xiao Ran's brother!"

Hai Bodong immediately became enthusiastic and bowed to Xiao Yan enthusiastically.

"If you are not from the same family, you won't enter the same door!"

"You are indeed a rare talent, a real talent!"

Xiao Yan was proud in his heart, but facing the goodwill shown by a powerful man, he still scratched his head with some happiness.

Hai Bodong smiled slightly and nodded lightly.

Then he looked again at the girl who was standing there at a loss.

After thinking for a while, he reached out and touched the ring.

A scroll appeared in his hand, and Hai Bodong slowly placed it on the counter.

"This is a low-level Xuan-level fighting skill. Just consider it as your reward for helping me maintain order here these days, Miss."

"Also, please don't come here again. I really don't want to accept you as my disciple. I'm leaving now."

The pretty girl in the red dress had red eyes and a hint of stubbornness in them.

At this time, Xiao Yan stepped forward and said to her,

"Miss, since this shrimp is given to you, you should take it."

"You are a junior, and as an elder, it is his duty to take care of you."

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, the girl stepped forward and picked up the scroll.

He bowed respectfully to Hai Bodong.

"Thank you, Master."

Hai Bodong raised his head slightly and hummed lightly, his expression calm, like a master.

The girl in the red dress bit her lip lightly, then turned around and looked at Xiao Yan.

Seeing the handsome Xiao Yan, a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes.

He pursed his lips and bowed.

"Thank you!"

Xiao Yan scratched his head with a smile and waved his hands repeatedly.

"No, you're welcome. You're welcome. Haha. Helping others is the basis of happiness. You're welcome."

Seeing that this silly boy was so happy that he didn't know which way to go.

Xiao Ran rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"Emperor Yan, take this girl and her servants out first. Hai Lao and I have something important to discuss."

Xiao Yan is exactly what he wants at the moment. Now he is fifteen or sixteen years old, which is the right age for him to admire Ai.

After such a long period of single practice, he felt that a sow looked better than Diao Chan when he saw it.

Not to mention that now that I see the pretty and beautiful girl in front of me, the red color seems to have a particularly strong visual impact.

After hearing Xiao Ran's words, he nodded repeatedly.

He walked up to the girl and extended his hand in invitation.

"Girl, shall we go out first?"

"My eldest brother has something important to discuss with this old man."

The girl in the red dress already had a good impression of Xiao Yan because he had just spoken up for her.

Hearing Xiao Yan say this again, he nodded slightly.

He gave orders to the servants around him.

"Let's leave the shop first and don't disturb the master from discussing matters with his brother."

A group of people walked out of the store in a hurry.

Xiao Ran brought Xiao Qing directly to the counter.

"My dear friend Xiao Ran, I don't know..."

Hai Bodong rubbed his hands excitedly and looked at Xiao Ran, who seemed to be hesitant to speak. Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.

Then, he took out a jade bottle from the ring and slowly placed it on the table.

Hai Bodong frowned slightly, but he didn't dare to question it, so he just looked suspicious.

"Friend Xiao Ran, can the Sand Mandala be placed in such a small jade bottle?"

"It's so big, isn't it too old?"

Xiao Ran laughed.
"Why don't you open it and take a look?"

Hai Bodong's hand trembled slightly.

His eyes suddenly widened, his pupils contracted, and he reached out and grabbed the jade bottle quickly as if he had been electrocuted.

Looking at Xiao Ran in astonishment.

"Is it possible, is it possible, is it possible..."

Xiao Ran smiled faintly without comment.

Hai Bodong quickly opened the jade bottle and poured it into his palm.

In an instant,
A pill about the size of a finger, round and crystal clear,
It appears in the palm of your hand.

With just one glance, Hai Bodong praised,
"That's right! It's Po'erdan!"

"Oh my, the pill is round and smooth, with a strong medicinal fragrance and even pill patterns. It is definitely the best of the best."

Then he carefully placed the pill into the jade bottle and bowed solemnly to Xiao Ran.

"Thank you, my friend Xiao Ran. I owe you a favor."

"From now on, I, Haibo, can do whatever you want. I will do my best if you give me an order."

Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.

"You are too kind, Hai Lao. We are just taking what we need."

Haibodong waved his hand.

"Hey, you can't say that!"

"Even if we both get what we want, without the help of friend Xiao Ran, I don't know when I will be able to obtain this broken evil pill!"

"..."

……

inside the store,
Xiao Ran and Hai Bodong discussed a series of things.

Xiao Yan was standing at the door of the shop, talking to the girl.

The girl in the red dress blushed as she looked at the Amethyst Winged Lion King who was staring at them with wide eyes, and asked curiously,
"Hello, what kind of monster is that?"

"It looks so majestic and powerful. Is it your monster?"

Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly, shook his head and said,

"No, this one belongs to my brother Ran's friend. It's very powerful."

He looked around and whispered in the girl's ear,
"I tell you, even the old man in the shop can't beat the lion in front of us."

Feeling Xiao Ran's warm breath beside his ears.

The girl in the red dress blushed.

But when he heard Xiao Yan's words, he looked up in surprise and looked at the Amethyst Winged Lion King carefully again.

At this time, Xiao Yan stepped forward considerately and introduced himself to the girl.

"Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Xiao Yan. I'm a father and I'm currently 16 years old. Oh, and that handsome guy just now is my brother..."

As the girl listened to Xiao Yan's words, her cheeks blushed shyly.

at this time,

Xiao Ran came out and threw a fragment of the map to Xiao Yan.

"Take it and go about your business. Bye!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yan hurriedly picked up the phone.

After reading it over and over again, he suddenly said to Xiao Ran in great joy,
"Thank you, Brother Ran. Thank you, Brother Ran! You are truly my brother!"

Xiao Ran waved his hand casually.

"The road ahead is long and the people are treacherous, so be careful."

"Oh, okay!" Xiao Yan nodded excitedly.

After putting away the remaining picture, he said to the girl in the red skirt beside him with a red face,
"I'm a little lost, can you lead the way for me?"

The girl in the red dress lowered her head, responded softly, and walked forward.
