Chapter 171: Mountains and rivers meet
Seeing that Lu Xu was looking at the furnishings of the room, the next person stepped forward and said, "The young master shouldn't have had dinner yet, right?
After saying this, the man respectfully withdrew from the courtyard, and then turned and left.
Lu Xu saw that this person was gradually moving away, so he smiled faintly, turned around and pushed open the door. The layout of these rooms is also worthy of its surroundings, which is just as chic and elegant.
After turning around, Lu Xu became more and more satisfied. I can't help but wonder who set up this place.
The man was really fast, and it didn't take much time to lead a maid to deliver food with a food box.
Smelling the aroma of rice, Lu Xu, who has rarely eaten since the foundation was built, really moved his index fingers, so he unceremoniously swept away a few plates of exquisite side dishes and a bowl of rice, and he really looked like a starving ghost was reincarnated.
And when I finally came over, I saw the leftover maid, which was naturally a little funny. But on the surface, he still respectfully asked Lu Xu to go to the hall again. Because the head of the Bai family wants to introduce the people of the Bai family to Lu Xu.
......
When Lu Xu walked into the living room for the second time. There are no longer only Bai Yingtian and the eldest lady here, but there are as many as thirty or forty men, women and women's football teams standing and sitting.
When Bai Yingtian cordially beckoned Lu Xu to sit beside him, the older people in the hall did not react excessively except for being a little stunned. But those young ladies and young masters of the Bai family. I couldn't hold my breath anymore. Immediately, there was a more favored son-in-law, who stood up with some dissatisfaction and asked:
"Father, who is this brother? How come our brothers and sisters have never met, and it is rare to gather us for this person?"
Bai Yingtian naturally heard the unhappiness of this little son, although he doted on this little son very much on weekdays, but at this moment he didn't give him a good face at all, but glared at him, and said in a cold voice with a sinking face:
"Stand down, do you have a part to speak here? What is this person, that person! This is Bai Xuxian's nephew, his ancestors have been very kind to our family, and they are not allowed to be rude to him, and they will not retreat. β
Bai Yingtian's words immediately made everyone in the living room except for the eldest lady commotion. What is the situation, looking at Bai Yingtian's expression, it seems that he is more protective of him than his own son.
All kinds of speculation and curious eyes were placed on Lu Xu at the same time, and Lu Xu also showed a shy expression just right, as if he was not used to the gaze of so many people. Guy, he is playing a shabby scholar from the countryside at the moment.
And the little young master of the Bai family, his face was red and white alternately and he retreated wordlessly, not daring to disobey his father in the slightest, showing that no one dared to question Bai Yingtian's prestige in the Bai family.
This young man never expected that his father, who usually dotes on him very much, would speak so mercilessly today. Let him lose face in front of so many brothers and sisters. His face turned red in an instant, and a look of annoyance flashed across his face.
After this incident, this son-in-law naturally won't have any good feelings for Lu Xu. Of course, he will not be naΓ―ve, after Bai Yingtian opens his mouth to reprimand, he will do anything unkind to Lu Xu.
After all, it seems that this poor scholar has a very important place in his father's heart, and he doesn't want to lose Bai Yingtian's favor because of this.
With this stunned young man who made the head bird here, the others naturally did not make any hostile moves, but most of them glanced at Lu Xu and showed a kind appearance. In a big family, daily life is a living palace fighting scene, which is more exciting than what is on TV.
At this time, Bai Yingtian smiled and pointed at the people in the room and introduced Lu Xu one by one:
"This is the eldest son of the old man, Bai Ziheng, who is now helping me take care of the martial arts in Jiangzhou, and his kung fu is not bad. That's my second son......"
Lu Xu nodded shyly, and at the same time, he would secretly look at these people to see if there were one or two people with spiritual roots. When he went to visit Bai Feifei today, Lu Xu was stunned to find that Bai Feifei and Bai Ling'er actually had spiritual root qualifications, and they were very good.
However, although the head of the Bai family has many children, there are indeed almost no people with spiritual root qualifications like Bai Feifei and Bai Ling'er.
As for Bai Yingtian's wife, in addition to the eldest lady she had seen in the morning, there was also a second lady in her thirties, and more than a dozen other younger concubines. All of them are beautiful, and this Bai Yingtian is not shallow.
In addition, there are three men in their forties, who are Bai Yingtian's younger brothers.
They each manage part of the Bai family's industry, or martial arts affairs or family business, and they can be regarded as the more important people in the Bai family. Of course, they also have a few children in this hall, but these people Lu Xu only wrote down their names slightly, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them.
In the end, Bai Yingtian also invited a daughter who was said to be a close friend to come here, and the woman and Zhu Feifei were best friends, and they came to visit Bai Feifei.
As soon as the boys in the hall heard that the young lady was coming, they immediately whispered with joy on their faces, and their eyes showed a look of expectation. This made Lu Xu slightly stunned in his heart, but then he suddenly guessed that this young lady might look like a flower.
Lu Xu was thinking about it, and a little maid and a woman in a pure white dress walked in from outside the living room.
This woman is beautiful and flamboyant, tall and tall, but her whole body exudes an indescribable coldness. Its coldness and rejecting people thousands of miles away made most of the men in the hall have the urge to tame it when they see it.
As for those hairy boys who have not dried up, their eyes are even wider, and they are all looking at each other. It seems that these young masters of the Bai family have been infatuated with this young lady for a long time.
But when Lu Xu saw the woman's face clearly, a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes, and the bookish aura on his face suddenly disappeared, but fortunately, Lu Xu forcibly suppressed his heart and returned to his original expression in an instant.
Because of this change, it was all completed in an instant, and everyone's eyes fell on the girl who had just entered the hall, otherwise she would have almost shown her feet.
But at this time, Lu Xu smiled bitterly in his heart, and it was really a meeting between mountains and rivers.
This young lady, although her clothes have changed to a certain extent compared to a month ago, she has a little more of the style of a noble lady. But from the skin full of cold expressions and blown-out skin, Lu Xu still recognized at a glance that the daughter of this so-called best friend was actually Yue Lingshuang who he met in the Valley of Death a month ago.
As soon as Yue Lingshuang entered the room, he was looked at by everyone and did not look uncomfortable at all, obviously being noticed and saluted like this.
Bai Yingtian was extremely annoyed when he saw the unsuccessful appearance of these juniors, and felt that he was really unbearable in front of Immortal Master Lu.
"Cough" "cough"
His face sank, and after coughing vigorously a few times, those young men who were indulged in Yue Lingshuang's posture suddenly took their eyes back, and they all made the appearance of righteous men and gentlemen, for fear of angering the head of the family. But the corner of his eyes still couldn't help but frequently put on this Yue Lingshuang's body, and the color of greed was undoubtedly revealed.
"Ling Shuang, let me introduce you. This Bai Xushi nephew is a descendant of an elder who has a great kindness to his uncle. You can see it, and you will be called a brother in the future. β
Lu Xu paid attention to Yue Lingshuang's actions with interest, and when she saw that this woman saw Lu Xu's appearance clearly, her body trembled slightly, and the evil taste in her heart was instantly greatly satisfied.
But the knee-jerk reaction at this moment was also noticed by Bai Yingtian of the old rivers and lakes, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, could it be that these two people also knew each other.
After a long time, Yue Lingshuang adjusted, and said calmly with a flowery face:
"Brother Bai Shi, hello!"
"Women are really born actors. Lu Xu sighed in his heart, squeezed out a shy expression on his face, and said in a low voice: "Hello sister." β
The rest of the story is much simpler.
Bai Yingtian solemnly announced in front of many family members that from today onwards, Lu Xu will live in the Bai family for a period of time, during which he will be one of the young masters of the Bai family, and no one is allowed to neglect him, otherwise he will be punished heavily.
As soon as these few words came out, the Bai family began to look at Lu Xu with strange eyes, and at this time, the eldest lady was not the only one, guessing the true relationship between Lu Xu and Bai Yingtian. Illegitimate children, mistakes when they were young, and Mama Rong on the shore of Daming Lake, all kinds of speculations surfaced in everyone's minds for a while.
At night, Lu Xu sat cross-legged on the bed, meditating on pranayama.
"Bang bang!" Two slight knocks on the door came from outside the house, and Lu Xu, who was in the middle of the house, turned up slightly at the corners of his mouth, revealing a strange smile.
Then Lu Xu got up unhurriedly and opened the door of the house.
Outside the house stood a beautiful girl in a white cloak.
As soon as the girl saw Lu Xu open the door of the house, she immediately fixed her eyes on Lu Xu, it was Yue Lingshuang.
Seeing this, Lu Xu smiled slightly and let the other party in.
Lu Xu stood at the door and sensed his senses, and did not find anyone else nearby, it seemed that Yue Lingshuang was very careful when he came.
Closing the door gently, as soon as Lu Xu turned around, he saw that Yue Lingshuang was silently untying the cloak on his body, revealing a plump and tall delicate body, and then the woman sat at the table unceremoniously, and then looked at Lu Xu expressionlessly and said, "Should I call you Brother Bai Shi, or should I call you Brother Lu Shi?"
"Miss Yue, please feel free, I don't care. Lu Xu smiled slightly and said slowly.
Hearing Lu Xu say this, Yue Lingshuang's face showed some imperceptible annoyance, but then he said with a slow expression:
"I don't know why Gongzi Lu appeared in the Bai family, I just came here to ask Gongzi, can you do me a favor?" After saying this, Yue Lingshuang couldn't maintain his indifference, and looked at Lu Xu with a somewhat nervous expression, for fear that he would refuse.
Lu Xu's expression was always the same, he neither immediately excused himself nor immediately agreed, but picked up a pot of fragrant tea that had just been brewed on the table, and poured a cup for Yue Lingshuang silently, before slowly saying something that surprised this woman.
"Are you planning for me to treat Yang Shaoxuan?" Lu Xu sat opposite Yue Lingshuang and said slowly, looking at the surprised Yurong of the other party without hurry.
Yue Lingshuang's surprise quickly disappeared.
She looked at Lu Xu with a strange gaze, and said a little bitterly after a long time:
"It seems that Lu Gongzi already knows about Yang Shaoxuan? After I came back, I made a special inquiry, and I learned that there are immortal cultivators with vast magical powers in this world, presumably Lu Gongzi is an immortal cultivator, right? I really can't hide anything from you immortal cultivators. β
Although Yue Lingshuang's words were very light, Lu Xu still heard a little hidden resentment from them, and this resentment turned out to be directed at him.
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Xu understood why the other party was like this, she was complaining that he was just a gesture, why he refused to give Yang Shaoxuan a talisman at that time, it was really unreasonable for a woman to drill the tip of the horns.
So he chuckled and explained:
"Hehe, I didn't kill him on the spot, it's already considered the creation of his previous life. β
When Lu Xu said this, his expression had become cold.
Yue Lingshuang heard Lu Xu's words, and felt a little guilty in her heart, after all, it was Yang Shaoxuan who was sorry for Lu Xu first. So he just said "um", and said with an indifferent look on his face: "I don't know what Gongzi Lu came to Baifu for?"
Seeing this, Lu Xu frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he still told the other party the truth: "Actually, I came to Lu Mansion this time to treat Miss Bai, and Bai Yingtian has some connections with his ancestors. β
"What? You said you could save Feifei, I went to Death Valley to find the Ghost Flower to save Feifei. After Yue Lingshuang heard this, she became excited in disbelief, and even two blushes of excitement rose on her white face.
"Of course, it may be hard for others, but for me it's just a small thing. Lu Xu said softly, this kind of bragging in front of beautiful women can greatly increase a man's vanity, and Lu Xu is not exempt from vulgarity, in fact, it takes a lot of effort to recall Bai Feifei's soul.
The two chatted for a while, and in the end, Lu Xu still gave Yue Lingshuang a pill, which could make Yang Shaoxuan recover some of his vitality.
