Chapter 3: The Deadly Trap

At this time, in the Imperial Immortal City, the people were completely ignorant of the things at the festival......

In the teahouse, a young man of about thirteen years old was eating a snack on a plate with relish, while a small stack of empty plates was piled up on one side of the table.

After the boy finished eating the snacks on the plate, he put the plate aside and raised his hand to bring a new plate full of snacks from the other side of the table.

'Well, it's better to have a snack here. ’

'What a broken succession ceremony! Stinky and long! ’

'I wonder if the ceremony is over at this point?' Just wait for the package to be delivered and go back and have a look. lest my father talk about me again afterwards. ’

The boy was thinking about it, but unexpectedly, a hand quietly stretched out to him.

"Haotian~"

"Ahh Ahem...... Cough...... Ahem......"

"Haotian! Are you okay! ”

The visitor was frightened by the young man's reaction, and hurriedly grabbed the teacup on the table and filled it up and handed it to the young man in front of him.

"Drink some water!"

The young man was choked and his face was flushed, and he hurriedly took the tea handed over and poured it down.

"Ah~ It's okay, cough cough, I almost choked half my life by Sister Spiritual......"

"Hmm...... I'm sorry, but I didn't expect you to be so engrossed, what were you thinking? ”

The devotional apologized with some embarrassment.

"I'm wondering if the ceremony is over at this point......"

"What? Worried about what Lord Chu said about you? ”

"That's right! After all, if I sneaked out, he will definitely be nagging if he finds out......"

"Why aren't you afraid that he will beat you?"

"It's okay, my mother is too! She was reluctant to beat me up! ”

The spiritual cultivator sighed silently.

"That's nice......"

"By the way, you've been there for so long, what have you bought?"

The spiritual cultivator raised his hand and shook it over a few oil-paper packets that had been packed.

"I bought the dumplings of Yuyuezhai, and Brother Ling Han is coming to the family banquet in the evening, and the housekeeper said that he must buy it."

"Yuyue Zhai, I don't like it, I still like Fu Ji's fried cakes!"

Chu Haotian smashed it, smashed it, and smashed it.

"But don't pay attention to that housekeeper in the future, you are the young lady of the Xie family! Why is he always called back and forth like a maid? ”

Devotional sighed.

"If I don't find something to do, where will I get the money to treat you to a delicious snack shop?"

"But they went too far! I didn't take you as a lady in my eyes at all! ”

"Okay, I'm fine, don't worry about me!"

Chu Haotian had an expression of hatred that iron could not become steel.

"You're just too bun! I was always bullied! Forget it, let's go and send it to the stinky butler! ”

"Hmm."

The two left the teahouse and walked towards Xie's mansion.

"I've been wondering why you didn't go to the succession ceremony of Brother Ling Han and sneaked out?"

Chu Haotian yawned.

"Because it's boring......"

"Bored?"

"You don't know that my father and mother and I have just taken our seats, and the other people sitting next to us have come to say hello."

"How old is the son this year, a talent, and in the future, he will definitely be a pillar of the immortal world and other flattering words, I am annoyed to death!"

"And the ceremony was smelly and long, and we were called to the ceremony before sunrise, and when the sun was three strokes, before it began, I couldn't stand being polite with those people, so I thought about leaving early to get some air. I didn't expect to meet Sister Lingxiu by coincidence! ”

"That's really boring! Ha ha! ”

Chu Haotian suddenly stopped.

"Hey, that fat guy is blocking the door again!"

The two looked in the direction of Xie Fu.

A richly built and richly dressed man stood outside the Xie Mansion and lectured to a submissive fellow.

"This is the money you received today?"

"Back to the housekeeper...... Be...... Yes. ”

"What a rubbish! This little thing can't be done! Do you still want money today? ”

"Right...... Sorry ......"

The man timidly explained to the butler the reason for the lack of money, but the butler didn't listen to him at all, and kept speaking ill of the guy.

"This fat man is as annoying as ever!"

Chu Haotian said in disgust.

"This guy looks so good!"

Devotional said.

"If I'm going to interrupt them now, then the guy should be able to listen to less verbosity!"

"You mean you're going to touch the mold?"

Chu Haotian looked at the spiritual cultivator in confusion.

"Alas! Anyway, sooner or later, I'm going to touch the mold! ”

Lingxiu smiled at Chu Haotian and walked quickly to the housekeeper.

"Steward Pang, these are the things you want, where do I put them?"

The butler glanced at the spiritual cultivator, then at the things in the spiritual cultivation's hand, and then waved his hand at the fellow.

"Go, go, I'll clean you up later!"

"Thank you, butler! Thanks butler! ”

The guy looked like he had been amnesty, thanked him again and again, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then fled as if flying.

Steward Pang gave the man a blank look, then squatted down to check the goods brought by the spiritual cultivator, and then raised his head in displeasure.

"These things don't look like enough! There are twelve things in total, and these are only five? Miss...... Isn't it greedy for the master's money? ”

Steward Pang's words made Chu Hao not fight in one place.

"What are you talking about?"

Chu Haotian hurriedly stepped forward and smashed the remaining package in front of Steward Pang.

Steward Pang was also taken aback by Chu Haotian, who suddenly appeared.

"Ahh It's Young Master Chu! ”

"I still have some of the things you asked my sister to buy! These! And these! Is it enough? ”

"Enough! Of course enough! I was blind just now, and I didn't see the rest of the things here in Young Master Chu! You have a lot of them, so don't worry about me! ”

"Alright, alright! Less nonsense! These are the silver money left over from the purchase, you reconcile the accounts, don't say that we are greedy for money! ”

Chu Haotian shook his hand and threw the remaining broken silver on the ground.

"How so? No, no, no! ”

Steward Pang waved his hand again and again.

"Hurry up, if it's enough, settle the wages to my sister! Right away! Do you hear that? ”

"Oops! Yes, yes, yes! ”

Although the housekeeper was unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to offend Chu Haotian, so he could only force a smile.

While secretly scolding Chu Haotian in his heart, he picked up the broken silver on the ground resignedly.

Suddenly, Steward Pang raised his head as if he thought of something.

"Hey! Where are you looking, what are you watching? Don't hurry up and get things back to the kitchen! ”

The little guy on the side was yelled at by the housekeeper, and hurriedly put down the work in his hand and ran over quickly.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Steward Pang watched the servants work with satisfaction, and looked at the tent.

"It's all ordered! This is a silver coin for Miss Spiritual, Miss Spiritual, so let's get a little bit of it! ”

Devotional borrowed money bags.

"No need, I can trust you, there is a housekeeper Lao. Let's go, Haotian. ”

Seeing that the two were leaving, Steward Pang cursed in a low voice.

"Phew! Dog fights human power, what kind of eldest lady, I don't know where the wild seed comes from, what is arrogant! The old man doesn't admit that he has this daughter, if he doesn't make friends with the young master of the water, Chu Gongzi, who cares about you! ”

Unfortunately, these words reached Chu Haotian's ears, and Chu Haotian hurriedly looked at Ling Xiu and found that Ling Xiu's tears were rolling in his eyes.

"Say what you say again!!!!!"

Steward Pang was taken aback by Chu Haotian's roar.

"Ahh Not! Not! ”

As he spoke, he fled into the house.

"Stop! You must apologize to your sister today! ”

Seeing this, Ling Xiu hurriedly stopped Chu Haotian, who was angry.

"Forget it, Haotian, let's go......"

Lingxiu gently dragged the reluctant Chu Haotian out of the Xie Mansion.

"That's what he said about you! Are you still holding on? ”

"But what if he apologizes?"

Chu Haotian was stunned.

"At least...... At least he won't dare to do this to you next time! ”

"He'll ...... it"

The spiritual cultivator said lightly.

"You ...... There's no way to protect my ...... all the time."

The two walked silently down the street.

"Ahh

Chu Haotian heard the spiritual cultivator exclaim.

"Sister?"

A sturdy figure flashed quickly, and before Chu Haotian could see it clearly, that figure knocked the already slender spiritual cultivator several meters away.

The spiritual cultivator stumbled a few steps, but still did not stabilize his center of gravity, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Sister Spiritual!"

Chu Haotian ran over to check on the spiritual situation.

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, it's just that guy knocked me over...... Hiss, it hurts! ”

The devotional patted the dust on his body.

Seeing that the spiritual cultivation was fine, Chu Haotian breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, this person is too short-sighted, I'll take you to wipe some bone-setting medicine and wine first......"

"Oops!"

Spirituality's face suddenly changed.

"What's wrong?"

"That man! That man is a thief! He stole my money bag! ”

The spiritual cultivator was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Sister, don't worry! Did you drop it somewhere? I'll help you find it! ”

"It's not! My money bag is tied around my waist, and it is impossible to knock it off...... It must have been that person who stole it! ”

As he spoke, the spiritual cultivator hurriedly got up and chased out in the direction where the man had left.

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing this, Chu Haotian also hurriedly caught up with the spiritual cultivator.

"Sister! I'll chase it! You're waiting for me here! ”

The devotional gasped for air.

"Whew...... Whoosh...... Good...... Be careful......"

Before the spiritual cultivation could finish speaking, Chu Haotian was no longer visible.

The spiritual cultivator had to slow down, panting as he chased in the direction Chu Haotian had left.

"Stop!"

He didn't run far before Chu Haotian saw a panicked figure fleeing into an alley.

"Humph! Lao Tzu is not so stupid! ”

The thief ran faster and faster.

"If you don't stop, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chu Haotian frowned, and the speed under his feet became faster and faster.

"Phew! Huh...... How can this kid run like this? ”

"Still running?"

Seeing that the thief had fled and turned into an alley, Chu Haotian hurriedly chased after him.

"Kill yourself! This time it's up to you where you're going! ”

Chu Haotian saw the opportunity, sprinted quickly, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and then jumped up and kicked the big man in the back.

"Ouch!"

The big man staggered a few steps, stabilized his center of gravity, and then turned around viciously.

"Chu Haotian, you can really run! It's a pity that you are simple-minded, such a simple trick can trick you! ”

Chu Haotian tilted his head, not understanding what the thief meant.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Chu Haotian looked back.

I saw a sturdy thief behind him.

"Hah! I didn't expect it! You've been ambushed by us! ”

The second thief said triumphantly.

"That's it? What kind of battle should I be? Hum! You two thieves must be underestimating me! ”

"We know who you are, and we know that you are very strong, but no matter how good you are, you are still a little doll after all!"

"Little doll?" Chu Haotian sneered.

"Since you know my name and surname, you should understand the status of my Chu family in the Immortal Realm."

"Even if it's a descendant of my Chu family, it's not something you can afford to provoke!"

"I'm curious, how many lives do you have, dare to go against my Chu family?"

"If there is no guidance from a master, our brothers will never dare to go against the Chu family!"

"Superior? What great man would hire you to deal with me? ”

Chu Haotian sneered.

"You dead man don't deserve to know! Man dies for money. As long as someone is willing to pay, it is the elder of the five elements, and I will kill you!" ”

"Arrogance!"

"Big brother, don't talk nonsense with him! Let's finish it early and get the reward early! ”

The second thief has already prepared the posture of attacking.

Chu Haotian laughed mockingly.

"It's just right, I'm also moving my muscles and bones, I want to see how many pounds and taels you two have!"
