There's no other way. Just thinking about her brother still lying in bed, untreated for three days,.

made Hui Hui urgently need Xu Qingfeng to heal her brother.

"Oh, right."

Xu Xiuqin asked, "You just said you have a tael of gold, is that true or false?"

Xu Qingfeng glanced at Xu Xiuqin with some dissatisfaction.

He felt Xu Xiuqin was too materialistic.

The first thing she thought of was that.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just worried Hui Hui might have been deceived. After all, Hui Hui wouldn't lie to us, and what she just said was clearly true."

Xu Xiuqin's words made Xu Qingfeng realize.

Indeed.

Hui Hui is never one to lie.

If Hui Hui says she has a tael of gold in her hands, it indeed means she has it.

Of course.

Whether this tael of gold is genuine or not is not certain.

"Do you really have it in your hands?"

Xu Qingfeng asked Hui Hui with some concern.

This little girl, who had been away for a month, could she have been deceived by someone?

After all, he had heard that some ill-intentioned people outside specialized in making fake gold to cheat others.

"Yes, I do!"

Hui Hui nodded: "I acknowledged a master on Nine Dragon Mountain, he not only gave me a tael of gold but also taught me knowledge of the magician's path!"

As soon as Hui Hui said this.

Xu Qingfeng and Xu Xiuqin exchanged a glance.

They were now certain that Hui Hui had been deceived.

Teaching an eleven or twelve-year-old girl the magician's path?

Ordinary magicians, how could they do such a thing?

And, what could be taught to Hui Hui in just one and a half months?

Xu Qingfeng's face turned somber.

He would rather Hui Hui had gained nothing in that month outside, rather than being deceived.

If she had gained nothing, she would only feel disappointment.

But being deceived.

Would mean that the hope Hui Hui just saw would turn directly into despair.

This, for Hui Hui, was already a very cruel thing.

"Can you take out your tael of gold?"

"Sure."

After Hui Hui finished speaking, she directly took out the tael of gold Wang Ye had given her.

The gold in Wang Ye's hand was all new, freshly extracted, so it looked flawless, perfect to the extreme.

It looked more like an exquisite piece of art.

When Xu Xiuqin saw this tael of gold, her eyes immediately lit up, and her instinct about metallic things made her realize that the piece of gold Hui Hui took out was very likely real.

Xu Qingfeng bit into it.

Outside.

Wang Ye watched as Xu Qingfeng bit into the gold, only to feel his own mouth twitch a bit.

Even though he himself didn't care much about this gold.

But seeing such a perfectly preserved piece of gold randomly bitten, instantly gave him the feeling that something good had been ruined.

Xu Qingfeng took a bite.

His expression turned into one of disbelief.

This feeling, that the gold in his hand was real.

Although Xu Qingfeng himself didn't have that much money, he had seen a tael of gold when he was at his master's place, and he learned from his doctor master how to judge a tael of gold.

He took another bite.

He glanced over at Hui Hui.

He had basically determined that the piece of gold Hui Hui took out was indeed real.

But, he still found it hard to believe.

A tael of gold!

People like them could probably never earn a tael of gold in their lifetimes, and yet Hui Hui managed to earn a tael in just over a month?

Though, going to Nine Dragon Mountain and encountering some wealthy magicians would result in such riches; this information had spread in the village before.

But in Xu Qingfeng's view, such things were fake.

Just a ploy to lure them to Nine Dragon Mountain.

Yet unexpectedly... it was real???

Still harboring some disbelief, Xu Qingfeng took yet another bite, and the once perfectly preserved gold now bore three teeth marks.

Beside him, seeing what had been an art-like piece of gold now bitten into this state, Xu Xiuqin glanced disdainfully at Xu Qingfeng and asked him:

"How is it, have you determined whether this gold is real or fake?"

"It's real!"

Xu Qingfeng spoke seriously.

"Real?"

Seeing that Xu Qingfeng had no intention of deceiving her, Xu Xiuqin immediately snatched the tael of gold from his hand, took a few bites herself, and her expression was one of utmost joy: "It's real! This tael of gold is actually real!"

Up above.

Wang Ye looked at Hui Hui, making a mental note about her.

Hui Hui still trusts others too much.

A tael of gold is a great temptation to people.

In such a situation, were Xu Xiuqin and Xu Qingfeng to try to deal with Hui Hui for the sake of this tael of gold, even though Hui Hui is a Seventh Grade Cultivator, without any awareness of defense, she could easily fall into a trap.

Seventh-grade and sixth-grade cultivators are still lower-level figures among cultivators, lacking iron and steel-like defenses.

Wang Ye thought through this as he planned to jump out and save Hui Hui immediately if she truly encountered danger later.

"This... this..."

Even his wife had already confirmed that the tael of gold was real, Xu Qingfeng had no further doubts, but looked with some confusion at Hui Hui, asking her:

"Hui Hui, how did you come to know such a person? And, the magician knowledge he taught you, have you learned..."

Snap!

Xu Xiuqin slapped Xu Qingfeng hard on the head.

Scolding him, she said: "Is this the time for you to be thinking about these things? Shouldn't you be thinking about quickly going with Zhou Shu to treat his illness?"

Initially, Xu Xiuqin was worried they wouldn't have enough money for Zhou Shu's treatment.

But now.

With Hui Hui bringing back a tael of gold, that wouldn't be a problem at all.

"Right, right, right."

Only then did Xu Qingfeng remember, heavily stuffing the tael of gold back into Hui Hui's hands, repeatedly urging her to put it away safely, and then immediately took Hui Hui with him to her residence.

Only.

By the time they reached the place, both Xu Qingfeng and Hui Hui were stunned.
