Chapter 227: The Third Prince is not that kind of person
Seeing that Gu Lingzhi was pulled away by Rong Yuan, Tianfeng Jin and the others also consciously followed, leaving Ding Rou with a little schadenfreude in their eyes.
But when he looked up at Rong Yuan again, he couldn't see clearly.
Rong Yuan's performance before made them think that they were tempted by Ding Rou and wanted to enjoy the beauty of Qi people. But after Gu Lingzhi was calculated by Su Nian, Rong Yuan showed that he had returned to his previous single-mindedness and affection. Although he is still connected to Ding Rou and has an ambiguous attitude, he can give them a sense of acting for no reason. This was also the reason why they were able to tolerate Gu Lingzhi continuing to be with Rong Yuan, without persuading Gu Lingzhi to leave Rong Yuan.
But if you don't mean that to Ding Rou, why don't you draw a clear line? Listening to the meaning of Ding Rou's words, Rong Yuan still has plans to marry her.
What they couldn't figure out the most was Gu Lingzhi's attitude. Although every time Ding Rou is present, Gu Lingzhi will show a jealous appearance, intentionally or unintentionally against the other party, but a few people who know her quite well know that Gu Lingzhi is not really jealous, and he is not the kind of person who is really let down by Rong Yuan, but he is hindered by the appearance of being emotionally compromised, in short, the situation of these two people is very strange......
Besides, on Gu Lingzhi's side, Rong Yuan unceremoniously collected the most valuable ground-level spirit weapon in the middle as soon as he broke the ban. After walking a distance to make sure that Ding Rou and the others couldn't hear her voice, they asked in a low voice: "Will you share this spiritual weapon with Ding Yun after you go out?"
Rong Yuan gave her a "what are you kidding" look.
"What is in the hands of His Royal Highness, how can there be any reason to spit it out?" The righteous appearance seemed to have completely forgotten the words he said when he got the spiritual weapon.
Gu Lingzhi rolled his eyes and snorted, "Despicable." In his heart, he praised his answer. As long as she can make the two siblings deflated, she feels happy. Who made them want to use Rong Yuan and her?
This side hall occupies a small area, except for the living room that comes in, there are only two single rooms in the apse. One is a bedroom, and the other looks like a study.
Gu Lingzhi and Rong Yuan's first reaction was the same, as soon as they entered this study, which was about three zhang long and wide, they went straight to the row of bookcases standing against the wall.
It's a pity that there are indeed many books on the bookcase, but they are all unimportant or can be bought in the Tian Yuan Continent. Think about it, too, how could the North Hill royal family leave something really useful for them?
Cheats and spirit treasures are two different concepts. No matter how precious the spirit treasure is, it will be gone once it is used up. But cheats are things that can be passed down from generation to generation, and can play a fundamental role in change. It's normal if there's nothing useful.
After confirming that these cheats were useless, Gu Lingzhi and the others turned their gaze to the other things in the room.
Judging from the furnishings of the study, it must have been a woman who lived here in the past.
On the desk, which is delicately carved with patterns, is a rabbit paperweight made of white jade. The owner of the room seemed to have left too suddenly, and there was a half-drawn picture on the paper placed in the middle of the desk, which was the bare orchid tree that had been picked by Gu Lingzhi and others before, and the colorful flowers grew on the orchid tree, brilliant and colorful. A newborn ray of the morning sun poked its head out of the clouds and shone on the orchids, reflecting half of the painting as if it were real.
"It's a pity. Gu Lingzhi sighed, if such a good painting is completed, it will definitely be a treasure worth collecting. It's a pity that it's just a half-finished product, and it has become a useless piece of waste paper. Otherwise, Beiqiu would not have left this half of the painting in place in order to restore the authenticity of this place that has not been entered.
At this time, Tianfeng Jin and the others and some fast spirit warriors also entered the study, and when they saw the few cheats placed on the bookcase, they all rushed over without exception.
Unfortunately, after a cursory flip through it, they all fell back to their original places. Looking at Gu Lingzhi, the eyes of the two were full of suspicion.
"There were only a few books here, and we didn't have any of them. Before everyone opened their mouths to ask, Gu Lingzhi took the lead.
"Heh, you said you didn't take it, you didn't take it? The books on this bookcase have obviously been touched. Who would keep only a few useless books in the study? You must have stolen them!" said a shrewd-looking man.
Immediately, someone echoed and shouted: "Yes, you are the one who hid it." This bookcase is so big, there must be a lot of precious cheats, do you want to eat it alone?"
As soon as these words came out, dozens of people who had already broken into the study looked at the two of them at the same time, with obvious doubts in their eyes.
Seeing this, Yan Liang immediately stood up and spoke for Gu Lingzhi: "Lingzhi said that if you don't say it, you don't want to fight?"
As the words fell, the group of the Royal Academy, Yuanzheng and Wei Hanzi stood in front of Gu Lingzhi and put on a momentum to face the battle.
At the threshold when the atmosphere was about to erupt, Rong Yuan, who had been silently searching for the treasure in the study, finally spoke up. Putting a piece of metal that was turned out of the low cabinet next to the desk into the storage ring, he looked at the group of people with phoenix eyes slightly squinted sideways, and said mockingly: "Even if we really swallow the cheats here, what can you do?"
After speaking, the coercion of the half-step Spirit Saint burst out, and immediately made the few people standing at the front knelt down with a "poof" unbearably, and one of them turned out to be a Spirit Monarch of the same realm as Rong Yuan. looked at Rong Yuan with an incredulous expression.
I had known that Rong Yuanqiang was strong for a long time, but I didn't expect him to be so strong. With the same cultivation, he has no ability to fight back.
"You...... Eat meat for yourself, and don't give soup to others...... You're going to be angry!"
"Come on, then. The ridicule at the corner of Rong Yuan's mouth became even more obvious: "Haven't you already decided that we have gained benefits here?
"This ......" Lingjun, who was suppressed by Rong Yuanwei, was stunned. Rong Yuan's words really stopped him.
They thought that the two had obtained the cheats, but it was just a guess, and there was no evidence that the bookcase had been placed with precious things before. The previous doubts were just subconsciously looking for comfort after the expectations were disappointed. It's just that I didn't expect Rong Yuan to be so tough, and he didn't even bother to say anything to explain, so he directly suppressed them with coercion.
"What is Rong Yuan's identity, and he will lie to you because of a little treasure?" Ding Rou's voice suddenly interjected, and the unwillingness and anger in his eyes before were replaced by complete trust in Rong Yuan. "I believe that Rong Yuan is not the kind of person who will steal treasures. If so, he would leave one or two for future generations. ”
Is Rong Yuan that kind of person? Of course it is!
Obviously, Ding Rou didn't know Rong Yuan thoroughly enough. The previous ground-level spiritual weapon, Rong Yuan planned to swallow it privately. And the treasures in sight were not in the pocket.
It's not something that can be reused again and again, such as a spirit plant, leaving a little spark, and after a few years, there will be treasures to be taken. If he doesn't take these spiritual things that have been collected, someone else will take them away. If you don't take a treasure, do you have a problem with your brain?
But at this time, it was impossible for Rong Yuan to admit this, and immediately followed Ding Rou's words and said: "Xiao Rou still understands me, how can His Highness be the kind of person who leaves no room for him......?"
Speaking of this, Rong Yuan's sword eyebrows were slightly hooked, and he seemed to smile: "What spirit martial artist would be stupid enough to put a precious secret book on the desk?"
The crowd was silent for a second because of Rong Yuan's words, and then someone laughed unkindly, and a familiar laugh came from the door of the study: "Haha, this brother is right! Who has a secret book that is not placed in a storage ring so that they can be looked at at at random? How can it be placed on a bookcase like a bookcase? Every time you cultivate, do you still have to rummage through all kinds of books to find the one you want? It's not a library building." ”
The people who had questioned the two of them before suddenly felt that their faces were gloomy, not to mention that they had not obtained the treasure, and that they were ridiculed so badly, it was by no means a comfortable thing. But I was unwilling to just forget it, and in my annoyance, the mocking voice from before sounded again: "Oh, it seems that you don't want to continue to hunt for treasures, so I have to speed up a little faster and quickly find more treasures to take out." ”
Hearing this, everyone suddenly woke up to where they were, and they were not unwilling, and one by one they rummaged through the cabinets in the study like bandits before.
At this time, Gu Lingzhi saw Xin Yi's red-clothed figure from the door of the study with a gap, and winked playfully at Gu Lingzhi, and Xin Yi turned around and went elsewhere.
Gu Lingzhi smiled and was about to continue the treasure hunt, but the corner of his eye that stopped on the half of the painting on the table suddenly flashed, as if something had moved.
How can a painting move?
Gu Lingzhi thought he was dazzled, and looked back carefully.
But this glance made her really sure that this painting would indeed move.
"Lingzhi, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Gu Lingzhi suddenly freeze still, Rong Yuan wondered.
"This painting ......" Gu Lingzhi just opened his mouth to say three words, and when he saw Ding Rou who was about to come here, he shut up, supported the desk with one hand and made a weak appearance: "Xu is a little tired from walking too fast before, I'll just rest here." ”
Rong Yuan wouldn't believe that Gu Lingzhi was such a squeamish person, and when he saw Ding Rou coming here, he knew that she didn't want Ding Rou to know about it, so he followed the words: "It's okay, then you can rest here." ”
"Huh, I didn't expect the spirit physique to be so weak, and I was tired after walking such a distance. How do you find the treasure? What a shame. Ding Rou seemed to be concerned, but in fact she was mocking Gu Lingzhi's work. A spirit warrior at the peak of the spirit is tired after walking such a little way?
Obviously she was fine before, but she pretended to be weak when she saw her coming, has she always been like this in front of Rong Yuan?
Ding Rou, who was thinking like this, completely forgot how happy she was to pretend to be weak before. even deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word "treasure hunting", intending to let Rong Yuan know where they were now. At this kind of time when everyone is racing against time to find treasures, Gu Lingzhi is really stupid to use such inferior means to compete for favor.
