Chapter 20 Acceptance and Rejection
Cangyuan Building
As the sun sets, the night falls quietly, and there is a lot of laughter and laughter in the private room of Cangyuan Building.
"Come on, come on, cheers!" Huo Ren said with a smile and raised his glass.
Driftwood smiled slightly, and raised his glass as well.
"Wandering around with you, I've been hungry for a day, and Huo Ren is still reliable!" Su Wen still disliked the appearance of the flowing wood, and then grabbed the chopsticks and ate them regardless of the fact that others hadn't finished drinking.
"Hehe, Cangyuan Tower's talent is a must in Tianming City. ”
What makes Liumu extremely different is that Zhou Qing has been following the two of them, especially at this time, he actually raised his chopsticks to praise the food in Cangyuan Building.
"Hmm"
Liumu nodded, and naturally felt strange about Zhou Qing's actions in his heart.
"Brother Liumu, today is really out of the limelight, I'm afraid that tomorrow's martial arts conference has already won. ”
Huo Ren also washed the soot off his face at this time, and at a glance, he was also a handsome boy.
"Just call me Driftwood. ”
Seeing this, Liumu waved his hand and said humbly.
"It's not, it's like you're going to blow up the oven as soon as you come!" Su Wen said sarcastically.
Liumu just wanted to stop Su Wen, after all, he had just met Huo Ren, so it was inevitable that he would be a little too much to make such a joke.
Who wants Huo Ren not to be angry, hehe smiled, raised his wine glass, and said, "Naturally, it can't compare to Liumu, it's just that the aftermath is blamed, and it keeps urging me to blow up the furnace." ”
Poof...
Huo Ren's face turned red as he spoke, and he drank a cup alone in embarrassment, and Su Wen laughed even more when he saw his embarrassed appearance.
"Driftwood, you have to guide me to forge, I didn't see anything today, you actually ended it, it's too fast" Huo Ren had a look on Liumu's face.
Before Liumu could answer, Zhou Qing on the side finally spoke.
"Driftwood...."
Driftwood turned his head, stunned.
I saw that Zhou Qing's cheeks were slightly red, his eyes were slightly drooping, his cherry mouth was slightly pursed, and his two lips became ruddy under the maceration of the wine.
Liumu was stunned, and his eyes became affectionate, and it seemed that he wanted to imprint Zhou Qing's appearance deeply in his eyes.
"Hmm. Liumu's tone also became gentle.
"I'd like to ask you for a favor..."Zhou Qingdao.
After Huo Ren saw Zhou Qing's appearance, his smile became extremely obscene, and he kept glancing at Liumu.
"Sister Qing'er, what's wrong with you, your face is so red, are you sick?"
Su Wen looked stupid, and reached out to touch Zhou Qing's face, and tried it on his forehead, thinking that Zhou Qing was really sick.
"Oh, people want their children to be long, let's withdraw!"
In contrast, Huo Ren saw the current situation clearly, and immediately stopped Su Wen.
Ahem...
Liumu also noticed that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and coughed dryly.
Bite...
At this time, Zhou Qing took a streamer on his fingers, and a cyan long sword appeared in front of the eyes of the four people, and the eyes of the three people in front of him lit up, and they were immediately attracted by the long sword.
Liumu seemed to understand the reason why Zhou Qing was unspeakable, the cyan long sword was extremely sharp, a little streamer flowed on the blade, the green light on the knife body was faintly happy, and the two magic patterns were hidden on the knife body.
"Good sword!"
After observing for a long time, Liumu held back two words.
It turned out that this was Zhou Qing's tenth birthday gift to her, and she also had a strong affection for this sword, and she had been looking for a way to improve the weapon again, but she had never found a chance.
Until I met Quickwood, I always felt that the strength of Quickwood's divine consciousness was amazing, so I followed and observed it until today's amazing behavior of Quickwood.
At the same time, forging three second-grade magic weapons, she had a strong feeling that this was not all the strength of the driftwood!
"This is the sword my father gave me..."
Zhou Qing's face was slightly red, and his reddish lips poured out a mouthful of wine, and his eyes were full of affection.
"I want you to help me forge the third magic pattern!" Zhou Qingdao said.
Liumu also discovered her feelings for this weapon, and looked at Zhou Qing in silence.
Uh-huh...
Nodding heavily, Liumu didn't say much, and gently took the long sword from Zhou Qing's hand.
Huo Ren smiled a little embarrassedly, a little embarrassed, he would be wrong about Zhou Qing's meaning, and for a while, except for Su Wen, who was eating heartlessly at the wine table, was not affected at all, and everyone else was silent.
In the end, Su Wen touched his somewhat bulging belly, and after he was full, everyone dispersed and went back to their respective homes.
After waving goodbye to each other at the door of Cangyuan Tower, Liumu was also about to go back to rest, who wanted to think that when the three figures were far away, he suddenly found a black shadow standing in the darkness not far away.
Those eyes emitted a faint cold light in the black eyes, and he felt the chill rushing towards him from a distance, the corners of his mouth tilted slightly, and the driftwood stopped to look at the figure.
Hehe...
There was a contemptuous laugh in the darkness, and the chilling eyes were all hostile, and their eyes narrowed slightly, and they walked out of the darkness.
Cheng Lai!
"The divine sense is really good!"
Inexplicably Cheng Lai praised it, but in Liumu's opinion, there was no kindness in this sentence.
"Cheng Lai, what's the matter?" said Liumu with an expressionless face.
After Cheng Lai heard Liumu's words, he was slightly stunned, smiled slightly, showed an expression that he thought was very kind, did not answer his question, and asked instead.
"You know me?"
Quickwood didn't answer, and said softly, "Huh.."
Although he didn't know Cheng Lai's intention, it hadn't been a day or two since Liumu arrived in Tianming City, and he was still clear about the division of forces in the city.
In the past few days, he has also been well-known in Tianming City, even if he is not as good as an old leader like Cheng Lai, but through his amazing performance in the past few days, he has attracted the attention of many people, especially after Zhou Qing's inexplicable follow-up today.
It's just that, after all, Zhou Qing helped himself when he first met, and he naturally had no malice in his heart, and after defeating Lu Yun, even Wang Tian noticed him, so he naturally had vigilance in his heart.
In particular, this journey is still a forging master that the Wang family focuses on cultivating...
"Why, the second time we met, you were so hostile to me. ”
After seeing Liumu's vigilant expression, Cheng Lai was not angry, but smiled more and asked bluntly.
After hearing Cheng Lai's words, Liumu frowned slightly.
If Cheng Lai feels that he has been ignored, feels insulted, and gets angry, that's fine.
This kind of stubborn character is the most panicked!
Liumu smiled bitterly in his heart, none of the young people in Tianming City were really fuel-efficient lamps.
So, he smiled faintly at Cheng Lai, shook his head, turned around and prepared to go back, while there was still time, he could also review the Lion Step Stone Fist.
"One hundred, refining spirit stones!" Cheng Lai was not in a hurry, and took out a heavy cloth bag from his arms.
Hearing this, Liumu froze.
Hehe...
Cheng Lai saw the movement of the driftwood, the corners of his mouth rose, thinking that the calm posture he had before was just pretending, and there was no doubt that no one would refuse the temptation of the spirit stone, and the one in his hand was still refining the spirit stone.
"There are still ten ordinary spirit stones to receive every month. Cheng Lai still smiled and continued: "As long as you promise to release water in tomorrow's competition, let me win the championship." ”
"Oh?" Driftwood looked at hesitantly.
"Why did you find me, there should be no more forging masters in the Martial Arts Conference tomorrow. ”
Cheng Lai saw that Liumu was already moved, so he immediately struck while the iron was hot and said, "You may be the only one who is comparable to me." ”
"No, you should be the only one who can defeat me in forging martial arts. ”
When Cheng Lai, who was originally at ease, was still playing with Wang Mei, the subordinate suddenly reported that there was the youngest Sanpin forging master in Tianming City, but Cheng Lai was also Sanpin naturally didn't care, but when he listened to the amazing behavior of the quickwood assessment, he couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart.
"Hmm...," Driftwood looked down in thought.
Cheng Lai was not in a hurry, in his opinion, the fish meat that the driftwood had already anviled under the knife was slaughtered by him, and he looked at the driftwood with a smile, waiting for his answer.
"In that case, what does it mean to receive another ten spirit stones every month?"
Liumu is naturally not a fool, if it is really a one-hammer deal as Cheng Lai said, then one hundred refined spirit stones is enough, why do you still separately propose to receive ten ordinary spirit stones per month.
"Haha, little brother is so knowledgeable!"
Cheng Lai nodded with satisfaction, Liumu can be so careful, it makes him very happy, even if the two of them will be opponents in the ring tomorrow.
"That's the treatment of my Sanpin forging master in the Wang family, you have a good talent, the Wang family doesn't want to miss the decline of a genius. ”
Sure enough, after hearing Cheng Lai's words, Liumu's frowning brows also relaxed, and now that he knew the intention, he was no longer afraid.
And his move also fell in Cheng Lai's eyes, especially when he saw Liumu smiling slightly, Cheng Lai felt that Liumu had been persuaded by him.
"So..."
Who would have thought that Liumu's face that was smiling just now sank again, and suddenly Cheng Lai also felt a little annoyed, and just wanted to threaten him.
"Brother Cheng, can you tell me about the reward of tomorrow's martial arts forging conference, since there is an agreement with the eldest brother, the younger brother is still a little greedy. Liumu noticed the change in Cheng Lai's complexion and sneered.
"Haha, the nourishing liquid is also what Wang Tiangongzi needs the most. ”
Seeing the change in Liumu's attitude, Cheng Lai did not shy away from it and said bluntly.
"Since the little brother agreed, then..."
As the night deepened, Cheng Lai felt that the matter had been settled, and he was about to throw the cloth bag in his hand at Liumu, but Liumu suddenly raised his head and his eyes flashed.
"Wang Tian... Spiritual Cultivation Liquid..."Liumu first muttered, and then said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, I'll get this Spiritual Cultivation Liquid tomorrow!"
The movements in Cheng Lai's hand suddenly stopped, and the anger in his eyes suddenly rose, this kid is playing me?!
"What do you mean!" Cheng Lai said in a gloomy voice.
"It's not too early, Brother Cheng should come back early, and by the way, bring a word to Wang Tian, I will personally send that one-kick revenge!"
After speaking, regardless of Cheng Lai's anger that was about to explode, he turned his back and walked back to Cangyuan Tower.
Scold...
The back of the driftwood cooled, and a powerful divine sense stabbed into the back of his head.
Divine Attack?!
Suddenly, Liumu was shocked in his heart, the divine sense attack is also a kind of martial art, which can turn the divine sense into an attack method, generally speaking, the divine sense attack is unaware of the ghost, and it is almost difficult to defend, at this time, the sneak attack Cheng Lai is to give him a dismount.
It's just that such a rare martial art shouldn't appear here, and before Liumu can think about it, that silver needle-like divine sense is already close to the back of Liumu's head.
With a bang, the figure of Driftwood disappeared into the lobby...
"Empty?" another voice came from another darkness.
Hum...
Cheng Lai sneered and did not answer.
