Quick Wear: True and False Life

Song An looked at the three men. He had met one of them before, called General Lu. Why was he here?

"Who are you looking for?" Song An was confused for a moment, then he came to his senses and asked.

"We are here to see two girls and ask for a favor." General Lu replied patiently when he saw the young man opening the door.

"Zhizhi, go ask Sister Lingxi, someone is looking for them, do you want to meet them?" When Song An heard the two girls, he knew that he was talking about his sister and Sister Lingxi, so he asked Zhizhi to inform them.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak" After a while, Squeak came back, gestured with its front paws, and pointed at the yard and barked.

"Come in!" Seeing what Zhizhi meant, Song An opened the door and invited the three people in.

"I've seen you." General Lu looked at Song Andao when he entered the room.

He remembered seeing a boy being chased by a eunuch in the Imperial Garden. At that time, the boy was hiding in the corner of the rockery behind him. It was he who sent the eunuch away. After the eunuch left, he did not want to meddle in other people's business, so he left.

"You must have recognized the wrong person." Song An was stunned for a moment before answering.

"Maybe!" Seeing his reaction, General Lu became more certain that he was the boy from that time, but the boy didn't want to be recognized, so he pretended not to know.

"You sit down for a while. Sister and Lingxi are making medicine. You guys need to wait." Song An poured a bowl of water for each of them, then sat down with Zhizhi in his arms.

"We've been sitting here in silence, so why don't you tell us about yourself first?" After getting a hint from General Lu's eyes, Nan Feng spoke humorously to Song An.

"My name is Nanfeng, I have no family, and I am General Lu's follower."

"My name is Xia Lang. I have a younger sister who is General Lu's follower."

"My surname is Lu, my given name is Menglin. My mother is still alive, and I have a younger sister and a younger brother." General Lu looked up at the other two people and followed the crowd to introduce himself!

"Oh! My name is Song An, and its name is Zhizhi." Song An felt that he had nothing to introduce himself, so he just said his name.

"Your name is Xia Lang. Your sister wouldn't like General Lu, right?" When Song An heard his sister calling him sister all the time, he thought of Sister Lingxi's words and asked curiously.

"Ahem... ahem... how did you know?" It was a well-known fact that Xia Lang's sister liked General Lu. Xia Lang was just surprised how Song An knew it, and he was so shocked that he choked on his saliva.

"Sister Lingxi's script is full of these, but the endings are usually not very good, with everyone hanging on the crooked tree." Seeing Xia Lang's reply, Song An thought to himself: No wonder Sister Lingxi always says, "Art comes from life." Now he somewhat understood the deep meaning of this sentence.

"Really? Then I'll go back and persuade my sister." Xia Lang felt uneasy after hearing what Song An said. Why did he feel that he was talking about his own sister? It wouldn't be a good ending. Wouldn't it be better to change someone?

"I'll find it and show it to you."

As Song An spoke, he carried Zhizhi to the study and dug out several storybooks with similar themes from the corner. These were the ones that Sister Lingxi had read and didn't want anymore, so he generously showed them to them.

"Here! Here you go, see for yourself!"

Xia Lang took it and started reading it with Nan Feng. The titles of the books were very shocking, for example: "General, Your Wife Is Going to Marry Another Person", "The General's Abandoned Wife Returns with the Baby", etc. However, the supporting actresses in the books were basically the younger sisters of subordinates. The fates of the younger sisters were one more miserable than the other, making people shiver.

"Um...Um Song An! Can you sell this book to me? I'll take it back and show it to my sister..." After Xia Lang took a rough look at it, he quickly put it away and asked Song An.

"You want it? Then give me ten taels!" Song An was surprised that he wanted to buy these books, but he didn't bother to think about why. He just quoted a price, because it would be burned as firewood in the end anyway.

Xia Lang quickly took out a ten-silver note and gave it to Song An, lest he go back on his word and not sell it.

"Don't be so nervous, your sister seems quite rational." Nanfeng comforted her.

"Can you rest assured? She is my own sister. It is always better to take precautions in advance. Even if you don't have any, you can still learn more. Don't you think some of the knowledge in the book is very novel?"

Xia Lang's words made General Lu look at him several times. He didn't expect that this usually noisy person could be so far-sighted at this time.

"Sister, Sister Lingxi, you have finished your training. These three are looking for you." Song An listened to their argument but was too lazy to care. He was touching the little squirrel out of boredom. When he turned around, he saw Song Nan and Lingxi coming into the room.

"It's done. If you're bored, you can take Zhizhi to the woods to play for a while." As soon as Song Nan entered the room, the atmosphere became awkward. Song An probably was bored too, so he sent him out to play.

"Sister, Zhizhi and I will go to the woods to pick pine nuts." Song An said, stood up and walked away happily.

"Miss, I hope you can forgive me for coming to your house without my permission tonight." After seeing Song An leave, General Lu stood up and greeted her.

"I don't like beating around the bush. Just say what you want to say directly." After returning the gift, Song Nan asked everyone to sit down and spoke frankly.

"I am Lu Menglin. Seeing that you are very powerful, I would like to ask you to save someone."

"I'm Song Nan, this is my sister Lingxi. If you need treatment, please send her to the rain forest in Qishuang Mansion in one month. We won't provide treatment."

"My sister is in poor health and I'm afraid she won't be able to make it to Qishuang Mansion. Do you have any effective suggestions?" General Lu was helpless when he heard that Song Nan was going to see the patient, so he asked again.

"You can buy some strengthening pills here to keep her healthy for the time being." Song Nan thought for a moment, tapped the table twice with his fingers, and said casually.

"How do I buy it?"

"Five thousand taels per piece, it will keep you safe for a year."

"Aren't you going to buy it?" Lingxi asked curiously when she saw that Nanfeng and Xia Lang didn't react.

"Can we buy it too?" Nanfeng reacted the fastest and asked quickly.

“Why can’t I buy it?”

"We thought there were few, so we have to follow General Lu first." Xia Lang reacted now and replied in surprise.

They didn't think that this medicine might be very rare for them, but for Song Nan it was like an ordinary medicine, after all, there was space to back it up.

"You are very loyal. This medicine is just an ordinary item for us cultivators. It is easy to get. You can consider buying some life-saving, detoxifying, and trauma-treating pills." After Lingxi understood what they meant, he introduced it carefully and sincerely to the three of them.

"Lingxi is right. Even if we don't have money now, we can go to the Shuangdong Rain Forest in Qishuang Mansion to buy it in a month." Song Nan agreed with Lingxi's statement and added a suggestion.

"Thank you Miss Song and Miss Lingxi for the information. I have limited money on my trip, so I wonder how the three types of medicines I just mentioned are sold?" After listening to their introduction, General Lu asked Song Nan.

"Ordinary ones are usually around five thousand taels of silver, which is completely enough for ordinary people. For those who practice martial arts, there are different grades of elixirs. Level one elixir is ten thousand; level two elixir is thirty thousand; level three elixir is fifty thousand. There is no need to go above that. If you can't absorb it after using it, you might explode and die." Seeing that they were interested, Song Nan explained the prices in detail.

So, General Lu bought the medicine for his sister first, and wanted to go back and brainstorm with everyone to see how to purchase it in order to achieve the greatest benefit.
