Chapter 858 Encountering a Tail
The fairy in the painting didn't live in vain for tens of thousands of years. How could one not see what she was thinking? She just smiled but didn't say anything. For humans, cultivating immortality is not a bad thing. The only regret may be that when he was still young, the relatives around him left him one by one.
The combination of the two attracted a lot of attention, especially the dress of the fairy in the painting. She was simply a walking clothes rack, wearing a white Tang suit, and her whole body was glowing white.
The saying that a white complexion can hide a hundred flaws is true. Although there are traces of time on his face, it does not affect his facial features, which are as if they were a work of art by nature.
Fu Ling naturally noticed the gazes of passersby. She smiled and teased, "Grandpa Hua, I'm almost like a background figure when I'm with you. Look, everyone's eyes are on you. What did I say? You're definitely going to be a big name on the island."
The Immortal in the Painting smiled and said, "Then do I need to disguise myself when I go out in the future?"
"That's not necessary. I think it's fine this way. Let them take a good look at me. It doesn't matter if I'm old. As long as I'm energetic and spirited, I can still look as charming as I did in the past."
"Hahaha, girl, are you sure you are not teasing me?" The fairy in the painting laughed out loud.
Having been in the world of immortal cultivation for too long, most people were extremely respectful when speaking to him, and they didn't even dare to look him in the eye, let alone be so presumptuous. But he just liked the girl's innocence.
"No, I'm praising you. Isn't it so obvious?" Fu Ling asked with his head tilted.
"You, you!" The fairy in the painting dotingly tapped her with her hand.
At this moment, Fu Ling noticed several malicious gazes and pretended to look in that direction unintentionally, only to see four men staring at her with a fierce look.
Seeing her looking at them, they were afraid of being noticed and subconsciously shifted their gaze.
But it was too late, Fu Ling had already noticed the presence of the four people.
"Don't be afraid! With me here, they won't dare to do anything."
Fu Ling smiled and nodded: "That's right, with Grandpa Hua here, it's a piece of cake to deal with them. I can be considered to have someone close to me today."
"Haha, I love listening to you talk. It always makes me happy."
"Then I have to decide who to be friendly with. I'm not so easy to talk to those who are full of malice."
"Girl, do you know them?"
"I don't know them. It's because I'm so good-looking. I guess they are a group of human traffickers who specialize in doing bad things." There was no expression on Fu Ling's face.
But the fairy in the painting could clearly tell that the girl was very angry about this and even had murderous intentions.
The Fairy in the Painting frowned slightly: "Are there many people like them here?"
"A lot. Some people are just bad by nature. They'll do anything to make money. Child trafficking happens all over the country. The government here can't handle it everywhere, so they can only hastily close the case as missing persons. Some parents refuse to give up and have to leave their homes to search everywhere. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. In the end, they might even lose their home."
Children who are unable to protect themselves can only be slaughtered by others.
Thinking of this, she suddenly realized the importance of cultivating immortals, so she lowered her voice and asked the immortal in the painting beside her: "Grandpa Hua, besides Guagua, can Lulu and Yueyue cultivate immortals?"
Although she did not know how to cultivate immortality, she knew that cultivating immortality required qualifications. People without qualifications would be mediocre in the end even if they had all the resources.
"It's not bad, but still not as good as Guagua."
"Then could you teach them some self-defense techniques? I'm thinking that when they grow up, they won't be able to wear protective magic tools all the time. Besides, the children will be going to school soon, so it's a bit inappropriate for them to carry those things with them."
"Of course you can, but you need to think carefully about one thing: do you intend to have all three children follow me in cultivating immortality, or simply learn some simple self-defense techniques?"
"Just basic self-defense skills are fine. Yueyue has shown a strong talent in pharmacology, and I want to pass on my life's knowledge to him. He's also the most opinionated of the three children and is very determined about what he likes."
Now, in addition to studying with Mr. Qu, Yueyue also has to memorize the names of medicines. Even if no one urges her, she will complete it consciously.
"That's not difficult, just leave it to me."
"Thank you, Grandpa Hua."
"How do you want to deal with the villain behind you?" The Fairy in the Painting turned the topic back to the villain behind you.
Fu Ling said casually, "Of course, we'll follow the clues from them to find the human traffickers' lair. We'll arrest them all and send them to the government. That would be considered eliminating harm for the people."
"Then do as you wish."
The two talked for a moment, and there was a fork in the road in front of them on the right. After exchanging glances, they walked towards the fork in the road.
Fu Ling activated the system to investigate and found that there was a small forest further inside the fork in the road, and very few people would go there.
If they really have bad intentions, they will definitely follow us.
Not long after the two of them walked in, the four of them followed them in.
And there was a triumphant smile on his face.
They thought they had hit the jackpot and were just trying it out. After all, they didn't dare to act in a crowded place. They kept waiting for an opportunity. Fortunately, hard work pays off, and the opportunity finally came, right?
Thinking of this, the man followed in.
But what the four people didn't expect was that when they came in, the two people were no longer there.
I thought they were speeding up, so I ran without thinking.
After running for about four or five minutes, I didn't see any trace of the target, let alone a ghost.
"Damn it, they weren't moving so fast just now. Did you see it clearly? Were they heading in this direction?" one of the bearded men asked viciously.
A flat-headed man scratched his head and looked around: "Hei, this is really weird. I clearly saw that woman and the old man coming in. Logically, I should have caught up with them."
"See if there is a fork in the road." The bearded man gave orders angrily. It was not easy to find such a good product. If this top-quality product was sold, it would definitely fetch a good price. Rich people would definitely scramble to buy it.
As a result, after just a short delay, the person disappeared. How could one not be angry when the meat that was about to reach one's mouth was gone?
"Brother, there doesn't seem to be any fork in the road nearby. I've looked carefully just now, and there really isn't one." A short, mean-looking man replied.
The bearded man was furious and kicked the wretched man: "Could it be that they grew wings and flew away?"
"Hey, brother, why did you kick me?"
"What's wrong with me looking at you?" The bearded man glared at the wretched man fiercely: "Look how weak you are? You still think about sleeping with women all day long. Bah, you are the least proactive in doing things."
