Jiang Jinlu looked at the leaves again. No matter how he looked at them, they were really weird.
He could not help but shiver.
However, this was not the end.
After a few steps, Xie Qiao said again, “There’s a child sitting on the wall. He must’ve flown up, right? Sigh, it’s quite pitiful. There are quite a number of teeth marks on his body. He was eaten by wild beasts in the wild. Perhaps there are many people here, so he floated over from outside the city.”
“No… Senior Sister, stop tricking me
“[-Then what should I do?” Jiang Jinlu’s body tensed up. Even if this dead man begged, the money he gave could not be used, right?!
It was just some joss paper. It would not take much effort and money.
“What if you took out a handful of silver and sprinkled them on the street?” Xie Qiao asked softly.
Jiang Jinlu immediately understood.
If he suddenly burned joss paper, those ghouls who were short of money would probably come looking for him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jinlu felt even colder.
“Junior Brother, you’ve walked a long way. Think about it carefully. Do you feel that your shoulders are more tired than your legs?” Xie Qiao asked him.
Jiang Jinlu subconsciously rubbed his shoulders. “It seems like it. I feel that my shoulders are very heavy and sore today. Maybe I didn’t sleep well yesterday…”
“Naive. You’re carrying the old man who lived in the water tank. Of course you’re tired…” Xie Qiao shook her head and glanced at him with sympathy.
Jiang Jinlu felt his shoulders become heavier.
Was what his eldest senior sister said true?!
It had to be, it had to be!
Later on, Xie Qiao did not say anything else. She only looked around occasionally and muttered to herself. However, this made him even more uneasy than when she explained.
Fortunately, they finally made it to the residence.
Jiang Jinlu almost ran to his own courtyard.
“Did you guys have a good time today?” Zhao Xuanjing asked when he saw Xie Qiao smiling.
“No, this junior brother is stupid and foolish. I almost died of anger.” When Xie Qiao saw Zhao Xuanjing, she felt as if her meridians were cleared.
They were both junior brothers, why was there such a big difference?
Look at Zhao Xuanjing. He was the Crown Prince, but he never put on airs. He believed whatever she said. He did not dislike her for being ugly, nor did he think that she was incompetent. This was what a junior brother should do!
