Mo Bei was disguised as a handsome young master. She held a fan in her hand and was obviously in a good mood.
After all, the business of the Chun Feng rouge shop was gradually on the right track. As the one behind this, she naturally enjoyed the benefits. However, in just half a month, she had already returned half of her capital.
"Little thief, stop!"
Just as Mo Beibei was preparing to go to the Drifting Jade Restaurant, a group of people chasing after a man's fight attracted his attention. She saw that the person who was running away looked familiar, so she thought carefully, isn't that Wen Zian?
Indeed, if fate wills it, they could truly meet again in the martial arts world!
However, Mo Bei didn't have the time to think about these random things because at this moment, Wen Zian was already close to him. Obviously, he recognized Mo Bei too, even though Mo Bei was dressed like a man today, Wen Zian still quickly asked for help, "Miss, if you save me, there will be a great reward!"
Time was of the essence, Mo Bei slightly parted his red lips, "If you agree to my request, I will save you."
"What request?"
"We'll talk about it later."
Wen Zian felt that women were truly difficult creatures to deal with. However, since he was being hunted down, he had no choice but to agree. "I agreed to your request, Miss!"
Mo Bei pointed in a direction and told Wen Zian to hide there while she waited patiently for the group of people to approach.
The man with the stick and other items chased, only to find that Wen Zian had disappeared. Looking around, only one of the young masters was leisurely drinking tea, so the man in the lead walked over. "Hey, did you see a man at this height?"
"I have, but …"
Mo Bei sized up the man. His clothes were not ordinary, obviously he had some background, so Mo Bei decided to say half a sentence and took another sip of his tea.
"This is for you. Where did he go?"
The man casually tossed over a purse. "It's best if you don't play any tricks on me. If I find out that you've lied, you'll have a good fruit to eat in the future!"
"Northwest direction."
Wen Zian, who was hiding in the dark, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was more than afraid that Mo Bei would betray him like this. After all, the guy chasing after him only shot 100 taels of silver from the start just to find out his whereabouts.
"Chase!"
The man looked deeply at Mo Beibei before leading his men to chase after him. After they left, Wen Zian walked out from the shadows. "I thank the Lady for saving me."
"We can't stay here for long, let's go somewhere else to talk."
Mo Bei was the first to leave. The man just now would soon find out that she was pointing in the wrong direction, so he must find her to settle the score. Mo Bei would never eat this kind of loss.
After circling around for a long time, Mo Bei finally felt safer, "Young Master Wen, who did you offend to come up with such a big battle formation?"
"To be honest, I really did borrow something from them."
"Lend it to you?"
Mo Bei looked around while Wen Zian rubbed his nose embarrassedly, "Although I was just borrowing, I didn't get permission from my master."
Isn't this blatant theft?
Mo Bei was speechless. Luckily, Wen Zian could still speak of theft in such a righteous manner, but to be able to cause such a commotion, he must have stolen something that was worth a whole city.
"Those who see it will get a share."
Mo Bei stretched out his hand, "If Young Master Wen is not willing to give me one, then I will immediately go to the magistrate or tell those people just now that I should receive quite a bit of the reward."
"Money buff!"
Wen Zian felt helpless. It seemed that ever since he started dealing with Mo Bei, Mo Bei had never been at a disadvantage. However, since Mo Bei had saved him before, he could consider giving some to Mo Bei.
"Cut the crap, bring it over for me to take a look."
Wen Zian had no choice but to carefully take out a map from his bosom. "Miss, I heard that once you get this, you will be able to obtain a huge treasure!"
Are you trying to trick a ghost?
Mo Bei didn't believe Wen Zian's words at all. If they were really going to kill Wen Zian because of the treasure map, then that would only mean that the group of people were useless. If they even got the treasure map, how could they not dig out the treasure?
Noticing Mo Bei's look of disbelief, Wen Zian sighed, "It seems that I really can't keep this treasure to myself."
With that, Wen Zian fished around in his bosom and unwillingly took out a small white porcelain bottle. "This is the thing I have brought, Life Continuing Pill."
"Life Continuing Pill?"
Mo Bei had never heard of the Life Continuing Pill Wen Zian mentioned before. However, it sounded very impressive, which made Mo Bei interested.
"Could it be that this Life Continuing Pill can revive a dead person?"
"Of course not." Wen Zian shook his head. "It's the law of all things to die and not be revived. However, the Life Continuing Pill can save the near death of one's life. With such a treasure, there is an additional sliver of hope for survival."
Who said that a person cannot be revived?
Mo Bei really wanted to refute, but in reality, she was an exception. She was already dead, but she was still reborn in this year when she met Yi Mo. This was enough to prove that as long as one's willpower was strong enough, the law of all things would not exist.
However, Mo Bei naturally wouldn't let Wen Zian know about this. Therefore, when he wanted to take the bottle, Wen Zian dodged, "Miss, there are only two Life Continuing Pills!"
"That's why it's very fair to have one apiece." Mo Bei extended his hand again, "Moreover, I saved you once. Otherwise, if you fell into those people's hands, the Life Continuing Pill wouldn't be able to save you."
This made sense!
Wen Zian could not help but pour out a Life Continuing Pill for Mo Bei, "Lady, you have to be careful. This Life Continuing Pill has a very big reputation. If anyone sets their eyes on it, it will bring endless troubles."
"Young Master Wen, you should be more careful." Mo Bei paused, "But don't forget, Young Master Wen, you still owe me a request."
"If Miss has any request that I can fulfill, I will definitely go through fire and water without any hesitation. Please be straightforward."
"I haven't decided yet."
Wen Zian could not help but feel bitter in his mouth. In this world, the most difficult thing to return was a favor, not to mention a woman's favor.
"It's them! Arrest them!"
Right at this moment, the man's voice sounded. Mo Bei and Wen Zian looked over. Wasn't that the person who was chasing Wen Zian just now?
