Reborn as an abandoned daughter, she became a stunning genius

On the tenth day after the team set off, they were finally less than twenty miles away from Luo City.

But now, a choice is before everyone's eyes.

A big mountain blocked the way. Villagers passing by told Lu Tianxing that there were bandits on the mountain who always robbed passers-by.

If you take the mountain road directly, you are likely to encounter bandits blocking your way.

But if we take a detour, the distance will be far more than twenty miles. Calculating this, by the time we reach Luo City, the city gates will have been closed after dark.

"There are no inns nearby. You can choose for yourself, whether to take a detour or go directly to the mountain road."

"Of course we are walking on a mountain road. We are cultivators, how can we be afraid of mere bandits?" Cui Ou said matter-of-factly.

As soon as Cui Ou spoke out, some disciples in the team immediately echoed, "Yes, maybe we can also visit the bandit's lair and let them see how powerful we are!"

"Makes sense!"

"Take the mountain road!"

Listening to the ambitions of his disciples, Lu Tianxing shook his head impatiently.

"Then I will follow your instructions and take the mountain road." Lu Tianxing ordered.

The team immediately headed towards the mountain.

"Juniors look very excited." Mei Zixi seemed to sigh as she rode up to Jiang Ning's side.

"If you can really take down the bandit's lair, it will be a great achievement. How can you not be excited." Jiang Ning replied.

"But I think you, Junior Brother Jiang, don't seem to be looking forward to it. Don't you want to meet bandits?" Mei Zixi raised her eyebrows.

Jiang Ning shook his head and chuckled, "Of course I don't want to."

"Why is this?" Mei Zixi continued to ask.

Jiang Ning sighed softly and said seriously, "How can a bandit who can run rampant at the gate of the capital be a simple character?"

"What do you think of Junior Sister Yi Zuo?" Mei Zixi suddenly looked at Zuo Yilan, "Junior Sister Zuo?"

Zuo Yilan seemed to be in a daze. She came back to her senses only when Mei Zixi called her a second time.

"Huh? Oh, I don't have any opinion. If you encounter someone, just hit him."

"Junior Sister Zuo, you seem to be absent-minded lately. Is there something on your mind?" Mei Zixi asked.

"It's nothing." Zuo Yilan said, turning her head and lowering her eyes.

Mei Zixi wanted to ask again, but Jiang Ning changed the subject.

Suddenly, a woman jumped out of the forest and ran toward the team, shouting "Help."

While running, the woman fell to the ground and seemed to hurt her leg.

"Look! There's someone in front of you!" Cui Ou pointed at the woman.

It's a rare opportunity for a hero to save a beauty, so how could the disciples who are eager to show themselves let it pass.

Cui O was the first to dismount, ran to the woman's side, stretched out his hand to help her up.

"Girl, are you okay?"

"Girl, you just called for help, but you encountered bandits?" Another disciple followed.

"Yes, they are bandits. They captured my parents! Please help me save them." The woman tightly grasped Cui O's clothes, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, adding a bit of fragile poignancy, beauty Crying is really hard to resist.

Cui Ou's face immediately turned red, and he patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, girl, I will definitely help you rescue your family!"

"Crack!" There was a sudden sound of branches breaking in the woods.

Lu Tianxing noticed it first, shouted "Who is that person!" and chased after him.

Seeing Mr. Lu leaving, some of the disciples in the team wanted to follow him, but unfortunately Mr. Lu's speed was too fast. By the time the disciples came to their senses, Mr. Lu had long disappeared.

"Girl, where are you from and why are you here?" Cui Ou asked.

"I...my family lives in Luocheng and is in the fabric business. A month ago, my parents and I went to Rongcheng to buy fabrics. On the way back, I saw that it was getting late, so I wanted to take a mountain road and return to Luocheng before dark. City. Unexpectedly, we met bandits halfway. They not only captured my parents, but also took away our cloth. If my parents hadn't blocked the bandits and allowed me to escape, I would have... "The woman said, crying.

"Don't be afraid, we are disciples of Chuwu Academy and we are all practitioners! We can help you rescue your parents!" the disciples said enthusiastically.

"Thank you all, thank you so much!" The woman thanked her and at the same time, her eyes swept over the people behind her calmly.

"If you guys can rescue my parents, I will definitely inform the Imperial Master and let him reward you well."

As soon as the name of the national master came out, the few disciples who were still doubtful couldn't sit still.

Huo Yuan was the first to step forward and asked.

"Do you know the Imperial Master?"

"My little girl is not talented, but she knows some cooking skills and is appreciated by the Imperial Master." The woman said shyly.

"Okay, I'll help you save your parents. After that, you just need to take me to see the Imperial Master." Huo Yuan said.

"Thank you, young hero. I will do my best, little girl." The woman was slightly possessed.

At this time, most of the disciples in the team had already started discussing how to save people.

Only four people, Jiang Ning, Ling Chuge, Mei Zixi and Zuo Yilan, stood on horseback, indifferent.

Zuo Yilan was distracted, Mei Zixi was contemplating, Jiang Ning was admiring the surroundings, and Ling Chuge was the only one who looked impatient.

"What a bunch of idiots." Ling Chuge said.

Ling Chuge's voice was not quiet, and many people heard it.

"Who are you talking about!" A disciple immediately turned around and pointed at Ling Chuge.

"I'm talking about all of you!" Ling Chuge said.

"Don't you dare say it again!"

"Just say it, you are all a bunch of idiots! Do you hear me clearly? Do you want me to say it again!"

Seeing Ling Chuge being so provocative, how could the energetic disciples endure it?

Seeing that the disciples were about to take action, Jiang Ning immediately reached out and covered Ling Chuge's mouth.

"Senior Brother Ling, I know you resisted the beating, but you could actually put this matter in a more tactful way," Jiang Ning said helplessly.

"Junior Brother Jiang, what does he mean!" Cui Ou said angrily.

"Senior Brother Ling wants to say that this girl is lying, she is lying to you." Jiang Ning said.

"Sir, what do you mean by this? How could a little girl joke about the safety of her relatives?" the woman immediately retorted.

"Don't worry, girl, I haven't finished speaking yet. Just now you said that your family is in the fabric business. So, is your store affiliated with the Qin family, the Zhou family, or the royal family?"

"Then...that is of course the Qin family." A moment of panic flashed in the woman's eyes.

"But I heard that the fabric stores under the Qin family's name are always purchased by dedicated people within the clan. May I ask if your father's surname is Qin?" Jiang Ning said.

"Yes, my father's surname is Qin, and my surname is Qin," the woman continued.

"That's interesting. Qin Xiao, the son of the Qin family, once told me that the person in charge of purchasing fabrics for the Qin family is named Song. She is a woman and has never been married." Jiang Ning looked at the woman with a half-smile.

"What? Are you really lying to us?" After hearing Jiang Ning's words, Cui Ou and others immediately calmed down.

"Sister Song is sick, so I asked my father for help!" the woman said urgently.

"Is that so?" Jiang Ning asked.

"of course!"
