Chapter 545: Chapter 544: Envious of Others’ Wealth and Generosity
Yun Ran looked at the little paperman who was still foolishly grinning and felt that she couldn’t bear to watch.
She had indeed taught the little paperman not to easily damage other people’s property.
Primarily because she didn’t want to bear the responsibility of compensation, secondly because she worried that if the little paperman became reckless, he would turn into an unruly child hard to manage.
But now, this fellow was caught by a drone, and unbelievably came back asking her for praise—totally missing the point!
In such a chaotic magnetic field, there were drones that could still operate.
Yun Ran lowered her gaze, feeling infinitely emotional; it’s another day of envying those who are financially blessed.
Can she find a magic artifact that can restrain the chaotic magnetic field here? Yes, of course, she can, but the materials for it would definitely cost more than a billion.
And this is just to find a way in such a dangerous place, which to Yun Ran seems to be a total waste of resources.
In a way, Yun Ran is both poor and a penny-pincher; if she can handle it herself, why waste money?
However, this doesn’t mean Yun Ran wouldn’t envy those wealthy fellows.
It’s just that her Dao Heart is firm; otherwise, she would have become mentally twisted by now!
Yun Ran reached out and patted the little paperman’s head: "Hmm, you’re right, you shouldn’t easily destroy other people’s property; your master is very poor and can’t afford compensation."
The little paperman immediately nodded firmly: "Master, we will definitely be obedient and work hard to earn money for Master in the future~"
Ginsengfruit, who already knows what PUA is, looked at the little paperman being easily fooled for the first time and felt he wasn’t doing a good job as a leader.
However, keeping the host happy is more important than the minions being reliable, so he can only reluctantly have the minions be a bit more obedient.
The little paperman joyfully continued his patrol, and Yun Ran glanced at Ginsengfruit.
"You go along and take a look too."
Ginsengfruit nodded, understanding the host’s intention for him to go see whether they are friend or foe.
"Rest assured, Host, they definitely won’t be on guard against a child like me."
Looking at Ginsengfruit’s confident demeanor, Yun Ran did not point out the truth directly.
Anyone harboring deep Evil Qi wouldn’t slacken their vigilance simply because the opponent is a child or a woman.
Ginsengfruit is now the senior brother at Qingfeng Temple; hence he definitely won’t be able to stay by her side all the time in the future.
She must let Ginsengfruit go out to see more of the world; teaching by example always leaves a deeper impression than teaching by theory.
The people from the Sihui Sect looked at Ginsengfruit carrying a pot as he left, not thinking much of it.
Not until a long time passed without Ginsengfruit’s return did the people from the Sihui Sect finally sense that something might be wrong.
Du Jun hurriedly approached Yun Ran: "Temple Master Yun, Little Guoguo he..."
Yun Ran raised an eyebrow at Du Jun: "Little Guoguo?"
Du Jun was immediately somewhat embarrassed; in his eyes, Ginsengfruit was just a child, and speaking to children often carried a bit of a childish tone.
"Well, I just..."
The more Du Jun explained, the quieter his voice became; he was also embarrassed to admit he somewhat envied having such a small disciple like Ginsengfruit.
"I sent him to do something, don’t worry, it’s late now, you all should rest quickly."
Knowing that Ginsengfruit isn’t in trouble but rather sent out by the Temple Master Yun put his mind at rest.
Such a powerful person as Temple Master Yun couldn’t possibly send her only young disciple to his death.
Meanwhile, the worried Ginsengfruit had already appeared at the place where the drone had earlier spotted the little paperman.
The drone had previously caught sight of the little paperman, but because it wasn’t flesh and blood, the infrared didn’t register it right away.
When the little paperman turned to flee, it drew the attention of the person monitoring the drone.
That person initially thought they were seeing things, rubbed their eyes, then checked the replay; only then did their heart stop racing.
Immediately, they rushed over to the captain with the drone in hand: "Captain, I found something!"
The journey had been relatively smooth, and the rumored spirits hadn’t appeared, allowing them to relax a bit.
Now, seeing a small paperman quickly run away after discovering the drone had suddenly brought their tension back.
"Let me see!"
The captain caught sight of the little paperman as well; their drone had high-definition cameras and night-vision capability.
Even in the darkness, the paperman could be clearly filmed; Arthur could even see the paperman’s startled expression.
Arthur frowned; unknown things are the least controllable.
"Have everyone be on alert!"
Those who had been resting in shifts upon hearing the call immediately opened their eyes and quickly gathered together.
The heavy weapons they carried were all loaded.
By the time Ginsengfruit was about to appear before them, the drone finally captured him.
Arthur’s alertness had reached its peak, his gaze was somewhat dangerous as he looked in the direction where Ginsengfruit was set to appear.
A minute later, Ginsengfruit stood before Arthur.
Arthur squinted his eyes slightly, tightly staring at the red-eyed peculiar child in front.
If his calculation was correct, the location where the drone had captured this child was at least a thousand meters away from where they had set up camp.
Yet this red-eyed peculiar child had reached their location in just over a minute.
In conclusion, Arthur immediately felt that Ginsengfruit wasn’t human at all, but rather a spirit from the Death Mountain who had taken human form.
Sweat trickled down Arthur’s forehead, all the way to his chin, and others were likewise tense.
Having been killers their whole lives, this was the first time they encountered a scene that gave them the creeps.
Some of the more lively minded individuals had even begun considering that perhaps their last will might truly be needed.
Ginsengfruit could perceive that Arthur and his team were highly strung at the moment, as if they were on the brink of a major fight.
Finally, Ginsengfruit began to speak: "Who are you people?"
"Holy sh*t, this spirit can actually speak human language!"
Ginsengfruit: ...
Damn it, I am not a spirit, that kind of low-level creature; I am an intelligent being from a High-class World!
But he couldn’t tell the truth to these people, so he immediately put on a stern face and accurately aimed his gaze at the person who interrupted earlier.
"You’re the spirit, your whole family is spirit!"
The person who spoke quickly earlier, hearing Ginsengfruit curse, even though it should have been something aggravating.
Yet it somehow eased the tense atmosphere; after all, spirits shouldn’t be that adept at cursing people.
"You’re not a spirit? Then why are your eyes..."
Arthur raised his hand to stop his team from saying more.
With an assessing gaze, Arthur looked at Ginsengfruit: "Are you one of the people who came with Lady Yun?"
