Chapter 023 [Night Companion Beauty] [Page 1/1]
After listening to Tang Manrou's words, Mu Qingyu had already understood Tang Manrou's purpose this time, which was to use Li Yao's name to produce immortal brew in large quantities, so as to promote the income of Tang Manrou's Chamber of Commerce, so that her brother would have the strength to compete for the master of the Tang Sect. (/)
Li Yao sighed deeply and said, "I didn't expect Tangmen to become what it is now, forget it, even if I bought it for that old ghost." ”
Li Yao waved his hand and took out a half-person from his Qiankun bag to raise the wine jar, and said, "This is the immortal brew I have accumulated over the years, and I will give it all to you......"
Tang Manrou said with a happy face when she heard this, and said excitedly: "The seniors are really willing to give it all to me." ”
"I, Li Yao, have a word, how can I fool you, a little girl, but I want you to promise me one condition."
"Conditions?" Tang Manrou frowned when she heard this, and looked at Mu Qingyu on the side with a hint of vigilance in her eyes, and secretly thought: "Is it the condition that I and his apprentice ......" Looking at Tang Manrou's appearance, Li Yao smiled heartily and said, "You have to be too afraid, I won't let you do what you don't want to do." ”
Tang Manrou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard this: "If there is anything in the seniors, just open your mouth, as long as Manrou can do it, you will do your best and die." ”
"It's not a difficult thing, if your brother can really inherit the lord of the Tang Sect in a year's time, I hope he can help him once on behalf of the Tang Sect when my apprentice is in trouble in the future." Li Yao shook his head and pointed to Mu Qingyu on the side.
"It's not a difficult thing, I think my brother will agree to it, senior, don't worry." Tang Manrou nodded.
"Well, that's it, old man, you can go now, take this immortal brew away, I want to rest early, and we will leave tomorrow morning." Li Yao waved his hand at the two.
Zhang Shouren carefully saluted Li Yao respectfully, took the immortal brew back into his Qiankun bag, and then left the room with Tang Manrou.
Seeing the two of them leave, Mu Qingyu looked at Li Yao suspiciously: "Master, what did you mean by what you said just now, why did you put such conditions on them, and the price of that immortal brew is so expensive, isn't it a bit ...... to give it all to them?"
"Silly boy, this is a good opportunity, for the teacher, this is paving the way for your future development, this peerless Tang Sect will inevitably set off an uproar after three years in the Stardust Realm, breaking the "world balance", maybe they can get into becoming one of the new four major families, do you think that if there is a four major families standing behind you in the future, will it be of some help to your future revenge plan. Li Yao said with a smile.
Mu Qingyu was moved in his heart, he didn't expect his master to think so much about his future, and said in a somewhat choked tone: "Master, thank you, you have paid so much for me." ”
"Hehe, what are you talking about, you kid can work hard in his cultivation in the future, and say thank you, really." Li Yao said.
Mu Qingyu nodded, and secretly vowed to work hard in the future to not disappoint his master.
"Godfather, what do you mean by world balance?" Ji Wuxuan looked at the two of them with some puzzlement.
"The so-called balance of the world is the division of the various forces in the entire Stardust Realm." Mu Qingyu explained on the side: "When the Stardust Realm is divided into ten powerful forces, including the Xuanyuan Royal Clan and the four major families and the five major sects under their rule, they restrain each other and prevent one of them from growing too strong, and this unique system is called the balance of the world." ”
"Now that our Mu Wangfu has been wiped out, there will be a new family to replace it, I think this Tang Sect is probably the best substitute." Mu Qingyu half-squinted his eyes, his eyes full of hatred and continued.
The night is as cool as water, the lonely moon hangs high, the moonlight enters a woman's boudoir, a translucent white screen divides the room in half, on one side is a brand new vermilion lacquer dresser, and on the other side is a faint beautiful figure can be seen from behind the white screen holding a pipa.
The jade hand was as slender and white as a green onion, gently plucking the strings of the pipa, and a faint and sad song also sounded.
After a long time, with a woman's soft sigh, Tang Manrou walked out of the other side of the screen from the pipa in her hand, came to the dresser on the other side, sat down quietly, and looked at the pretty face of the person in the mirror.
Tang Manrou smiled miserably, her smile was full of sadness and helplessness, her little hand gently reached the back of her head, gently touched it a few times, and actually pulled out a thin needle with a finger length from the back of her head.
The thin needle was placed on the red lacquered low table next to Tang Manrou, and then Tang Manrou's face in the mirror began to twist violently, constantly changing, making people look a little scary, and after a while, another new and different pretty face appeared in the mirror.
These are two different kinds of beauty, if she is like a fire that disturbs people's hearts, this other beauty is like a pretty lily that blooms quietly at midnight, demure and lovable.
Tang Manrou looked at her new self in the mirror, and breathed a sigh of relief, it has been nearly a year since she entered the Tangmen Chamber of Commerce in Wind Forest City, and every day she is smiling at everyone with a hypocritical mask, catering to the eyes full of ** from those different men, and only in the dead of night can she dare to take off her mask and truly face her true self in the mirror.
The drum beat the third watch, but now Tang Manrou was not sleepy at all, and with a light wave of his hand, a sword with a silver light appeared in his hand, and then turned into a yellow light and disappeared into the room.
Hearing the sound of the three watch drums outside, Mu Qingyu sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed and still didn't feel a little sleepy, opened her eyes and looked at Ji Wuxuan and Li Yao on the side who were sleeping soundly, lightly put on her coat, put on her shoes, and walked out of the door.
Came to the back garden of the Tang family auction venue, and found that the scenery here is particularly beautiful under the light of the pure white moonlight, there is no lack of rare and exotic grasses in the back garden, and there are also a lot of rare varieties of trees, the breeze blows, bringing a burst of fresh smell, making people smell and feel relaxed and happy.
At this time, the sound of a sword dancing in the air not far away attracted Mu Qingyu's attention.
"At this time, who will dance the sword?" Mu Qingyu muttered puzzled, and then followed the sound of the sword dance to the side.
Bypassing a secluded grove, it ushered in a new scene, a clear lake without a trace of impurities was presented in front of Mu Qingyu.
There is a small pavilion in the middle of the lake, and at the top of the pavilion, there seems to be a woman's figure dancing a silver sword on the pavilion.
"Whoosh." A crisp sound of sword dancing came, and Mu Qingyu looked at the figure of the dancing sword, but his gaze couldn't be taken away.
Because that figure is really like a person, that is her sister Mu Wan'er, who has been taking care of herself, Mu Wan'er is a sword master, Mu Qingyu often watches from the side on weekdays, which is why Mu Qingyu immediately recognized the sound of sword dancing when she was in the garden at the beginning.
And the beautiful woman dancing the sword on the other side didn't know, there was a young man with infatuated eyes looking at herself, she was still dancing the sword there, the speed of the sword was fast and slow, and the sword seemed to faintly reveal the artistic conception of the sword dancer's heart now, Mu Qingyu was also obsessed with watching on the side.
"Good swordsmanship." Mu Qingyu couldn't help but praise.
"Huh?" Tang Manrou turned her face in shock, and saw Mu Qingyu on the side looking at herself, but unexpectedly, her feet slipped and the whole person fell completely from the pavilion and landed in the lake.
"Girl, be careful. Mu Qingyu didn't think about who the person who fell into the lake was, so he directly took the black star on his back from his back and threw it on the shore of the lake, and the whole person jumped into the lake.
Mu Qingyu has been proficient in water since she was a child, because she used to always go to her brother Bai Ran to fish to eat, but Tang Manrou is not clear, Tang Men belongs to the northern part of the Star Realm, there is no big river at all, so she has also been a landlubber since she was a child, and at this time she fell into the lake, and she had to instinctively grab something that could be caught on the side with both hands, and at this time there was also anxiety and fear in her heart.
"Puff puff." choked on several mouthfuls of water, Tang Manrou's consciousness began to blur, and at this time, suddenly a hand was tightly grasped on her shoulder, and Tang Manrou hurriedly followed the meaning of the owner of the hand, and sucked her entire body tightly on that person's body like an octopus......
I don't know how long it took, I felt that a red light seemed to be shining on my body in front of my eyes, and my body began to feel a burst of warmth, Tang Manrou slowly opened her eyes, it seemed that there was a man sitting next to her with her upper body.
"Who." Tang Man sprang up from the ground and subconsciously wanted to pull out his sword, but found that the sword was not on his waist.
"Hehe, you're awake, your sword is here." Mu Qingyu grinned and handed the sword to Tang Manrou from the ground.
Tang Manrou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that the other party was Mu Qingyu, took the sword, and said, "Why are you here?" ”
"Huh?" Mu Qingyu frowned, and looked at Tang Manrou with some strange eyes: "Do you know me?" ”
Tang Manrou was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she thought that Mu Qingyu couldn't recognize herself now, and quickly shook her head: "I don't know." ”
"I'm really sorry just now, if I hadn't scared you, you wouldn't have suddenly stumbled and fallen into the lake." Mu Qingyu scratched her head a little embarrassed.
