Feeling Lin Tian's intimate actions, the young girl seemed a little uneasy. However, she did not have any resistance in her heart. Her cheeks flushed red and she lowered her head shyly.
Bang!
At this moment, a loud sound came from outside. The symbolic wooden door in the courtyard was instantly broken open.
Following that, a loud voice like that of a rooster rang from outside the door.
"Old man Luo, a month's time is up. Come out, you son of a bitch. Don't hide and play dead. I, Wang Ergou, tell you, if you can't take out the silver today, hand your granddaughter over to me!"
Outside the door, the young man who called himself Wang Ergou shouted fiercely, scaring Luo Qingwu who was in the room.
Seeing this, Lin Tian asked curiously, "What's going on?"
Hearing Lin Tian's question, Luo Qingwu looked outside nervously and then explained the matter in a low voice.
It turned out that as early as a month ago, Luo Qingwu also fell ill. At that time, the family did not have much savings. Seeing that she was about to die, Luo Changdong, who was also Luo Qingwu's grandfather, gritted his teeth and borrowed a few taels of silver from the notoriously evil landlord Wang Family within a few dozen miles of Luoshui Village. He promised to repay the debt in a month.
However, who knew that in this month, it was raining continuously and they could not go out to sea. Not to mention earning money, even food and clothing were difficult.
Not to mention, the Wang Family tricked Luo Changdong into signing a high-interest contract. In a short month, the few taels of silver turned into tens of taels of silver.
This amount may not be much to a normal wealthy family, but to Luo Changdong and his granddaughter, it was undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
Looking at the current situation, even if they were killed, they would not be able to take out the money.
After hearing Luo Qingwu's words, Lin Tian could not help but feel a surge of warmth in his heart. Although Luo Qingwu did not say it, her words and actions had always attributed this matter to him. However, Lin Tian still understood that the reason why Luo Changdong could not take out a few taels of silver was ultimately because of him.
If not for him, this pair of grandfather and granddaughter would not be in such dire straits.
After all, with their family's financial situation, raising an unconscious idler for three years was definitely a very difficult task.
Without mentioning anything else, just the medicine that Luo Qingwu brought in would probably cost them a lot of money.
These things couldn't help Lin Tian.
In his eyes, it was nothing.
However, this represented a heart, a sincere heart. To Lin Tian, this heart was enough.
"Old man Luo, I know you're at home. Get your ass out here, or I'll burn your house down!"
At this point, the voice outside sounded again. It was getting closer and closer, and the tone was very arrogant. Luo Qingwu's face turned pale after hearing it.
"Big, Big Brother Lin, they are coming in. Quickly hide." Luo Qingwu heard the approaching footsteps and hurriedly pushed Lin Tian into the house. She wanted to hide him and was afraid that Wang Ergou would come in and hurt him.
Upon seeing this, Lin Tian patted Luo Qingwu's head lightly and stopped her.
"Qingwu, don't be afraid. If he wants money, we'll just give it to him." Lin Tian laughed softly.
"But, but we don't have any money …"
Seeing that Lin Tian refused to hide, Luo Qingwu was so anxious that tears almost fell out. She said helplessly.
Seeing her like this, Lin Tian couldn't help but feel complicated.
To a powerful cultivator, this world was endlessly beautiful. It was like heaven on earth.
Compared to mortals, they had endless wealth and could live a happy life.
So much so that their goal in life was no longer to live in peace and contentment. Instead, it was to attain enlightenment and live a long life.
However, to mortals, this world was extremely cruel. There were swords and sabers everywhere. Without power, they could only live under the pity of the strong and could never rise up.
In this world, the strong preyed on the weak. Even Lin Tian couldn't change it.
At least, he couldn't change it now.
After a long while, Lin Tian took a deep breath and regained his senses. He didn't think about these troublesome things anymore. He smiled at Luo Qingwu and said, "Don't worry. Isn't it just money? I have it. "
"But I can't take your money."
Luo Qingwu's head shook like a rattle-drum.
Upon seeing this, Lin Tian's face turned serious. He said sternly, "What do you mean by 'yours' and 'mine'? You saved my life. What's wrong with using some money?"
"I don't have any silver on me now. Take this to pay off your debt. Tens of silver should be enough."
Lin Tian said casually as he passed the medicine wrapped in a handkerchief to Luo Qingwu.
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingwu couldn't help but cover her mouth. She shook her head and refused to accept it because it was too valuable.
After all, it was a 'spiritual medicine'.
Even though it was her first time seeing something like this, she heard her grandfather say that it was worth a lot.
Even a stalk of the lowest grade spirit medicine could be exchanged for a lot of money. Moreover, this stalk of spirit medicine that Lin Tian gave her was so beautiful. Even if she didn't know anything, she knew that this was definitely not the lowest grade spirit medicine.
"Oh, that's why I was wondering why no one was home. It turns out that the young lady was hiding in her room to meet her lover in secret …"
At this moment, a frivolous voice sounded from the door. Luo Qingwu was shocked.
She and Lin Tian turned around to look. They saw a pockmarked youth with a protruding mouth and monkey-like cheeks. He held a fan in his hand and walked in with a weird smile on his face.
"Young, Young Master Wang, why are you here?" Looking at this person, Luo Qingwu asked despite knowing the answer. Her voice trembled a little. Evidently, she was afraid of this Wang Ergou.
"Why am I here?"
Wang Ergou laughed weirdly. His invasive gaze swept across Luo Qingwu's body. Then, he sat down on the bed that Lin Tian was lying on previously. He said casually, "When are you going to return the money that your grandfather owes me?"
"Young Master Wang, can you give me a few more days?"
Luo Qingwu looked at Wang Ergou pleadingly and said, "You know that the weather is not good recently. The waves are very strong and we can't go out to sea. When the weather clears up, my father will definitely go fishing and return the money that he owes you."
"Oh, fishing?"
Hearing this, Wang Ergou couldn't help but laugh. A look of disdain flashed across his face. His eyes swept across Luo Qingwu's body and he laughed weirdly, "How much can those few lousy fishes be worth?"
"Do you know that even if your father doesn't rest and fishes for the rest of his life, he won't be able to repay the interest that he owes the Wang Family?"
Hearing this, Luo Qingwu's face turned pale.
