Cultivation Is Like This

v1 Chapter 173: only half way through

   Chapter 173 Only half way through

"Ok."

  Lu Bei nodded and followed: "But don't be too happy, it's not the kind of one pass to the end, after all, everyone is not familiar with it, so let's try half pass first, then continue, if you can't, just shoot and break up."

   "What is only half way through?"

   Zhu Qilan's brows wrinkled, it's OK, it's OK, it's not OK, is the compromise plan to be prepared to eat both ends?

   "Let's not talk about this first, your situation is a bit tricky. If I don't stop the demons, I can't find a place to think about it." Lu Bei shook his head and walked quickly towards Zhu Qilan.

   Butler Yu: "..."

   So, what are you going to pass?

   At the beginning, she listened to the meaning of the two and was talking about a business. Listening and listening, she found that the business seemed to be much bigger than she thought.

   In line of sight, Lu Bei raised his hand and put his hand on Zhu Qilan's shoulder, the latter groaned and his breathing gradually eased.

   Butler Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was afraid that Zhu Qilan actually liked it.

   After about ten breaths, Lu Bei stopped and stood still. . .

  Zhu Qilan slowly opened his mouth and spit out a cloud of cold mist, the frost on the brows quickly melted away, and said in a gentle tone: "Bai Yu, take the guests to rest for a while, and instruct the kitchen to treat them well, and I will come later."

   "Cousin is too polite, she's all from her own family, let the back kitchen make it easy and order some home-cooked dishes such as delicacies from the mountains and seas, seafood, land and water, 30 or 50 dishes are enough, there are too many to finish."

  “…”

   Zhu Qilan stepped out of the quiet room for a while. What does cousin mean? She has this relative, why doesn't she know?

  The information is not clear?

  …

  Zhu Qilan took a shower and changed clothes, Lu Bei returned to the waterside pavilion under the leadership of Butler Yu, and continued to stare at the koi.

   After a moment, the dessert was served, and Lu Beiwang was stunned.

   A few dishes of melon seeds, peanuts, and candied dates, plus a cup of tea, is no different from the standard of Sanqingfeng New Year's Day, and even less apples.

   "I make so much money every day, just use this to kill me. Poor relatives are really disgusted everywhere." Lu Bei pouted, poured three plates of snacks into his mouth, swallowed it with a grunt, and then picked up the tea and savored it.

   "Yes, this tea is not as good as the special offering from my head..."

  Lu Bei put down the tea cup, raised his hand and called the maid outside the pavilion waiting for dispatch, handed over the tea bag, and asked her to re-brew a pot.

   The maid bowed and left, and Lu Bei waited for a while, making sure that a few dishes of dim sum were not appetizers, but were indeed staples, and the boss was not happy.

  What's wrong with Bigu, so there's no need to pursue quality of life for Bigu?

  About half an hour, Lu Bei fought consecutive victories and defeated eight koi in a row. Zhu Qilan finished bathing and dressing, his face turned to the sky, and he came to the waterside pavilion without applying Fendai.

   "Cousin, it's just a bath, how long does it take?"

  Because it is his own family, Lu Bei complained without any face: "Why, there is too much dust in the creek, I can't rub it down for a long time?"

   You are a cheap repairer!

   Butler Yu, who followed closely, twitched the corners of his mouth. Seeing that his princess was calm, he didn't say anything after all.

The fragrance of   ling tea wafted away, Zhu Qilan shrugged his nose and took a slight sniff, lifted the teapot and poured a cup for himself, took a small sip, and frowned sharply.

   Royal study special offer!

  Zhu Qilan's heart sank, her expression remained unchanged, and she gave Lu Bei a light look: "Good tea, please bring your own tea, I'm deeply sorry."

   is what you are waiting for!

  Lu Bei looked contemptuous: "Cousin, there is a lot of traffic outside your house. If you want to see you, you will have to pay a sky-high price. As a result, I have to bring my own tea, which is a bit overwhelming..."

   "You saw me and saved the sky-high price."

   "Ah this..."

  Lu Bei's eyes widened. From the point of view of a businessman, Zhu Qilan had reason and evidence, and he could not argue.

   "The tea is good, how much is there, let's make a price." Zhu Qilan continued.

   "A gift from a friend is priceless."

"Add money."

   "Maybe, but I'll ask a friend first."

  “…”

   Seeing Lu Bei's serious face, Zhu Qilan was a little unpredictable.

It wasn't a pleasant encounter the night before. She ordered someone to investigate Lu Bei's intelligence. In less than three days, where does Lu Bei's family live, how many people, and what color of underwear they like to wear, no matter how small or small, they were all told by their subordinates. in front of.

   All the information, Zhu Qilan looked at them one by one, confident that no clues were missed.

   Obviously, the information has not been thoroughly investigated, who is Lu Beikou's friend, and the source of the special supply of spirit tea in the imperial study, but the information does not mention a word.

  Is it possible that this person is the husband-in-law that the emperor's younger brother specially placed beside me to choose for me?

   That's why he called me cousin.

   No, he fought me that night, and he really planned to kill me!

   Furthermore, if the emperor really can't afford to lose, and secretly match up, this person is interested in me, and it is even more impossible to take out the identity of Lingcha and self-destruct...

   is also not right, is it possible that he is testing me?

   Zhu Qilan held the teacup without saying a word, with a lot of thoughts, and the magic thought was about to move again.

   A cup of tea made Lu Bei's identity abruptly official. She was agitated and quite repulsive. She thought Lu Bei was a good knife at first, but looking at it now, it is not fragrant at all.

   This man is so ugly, no matter how you look at it, no matter how you look at it.

   "Bai Yu, see you off."

  “???”

A string of question marks floated across Lu Bei's forehead, he raised his hand and called a pause, and looked at Zhu Qilan in a stunned manner: "Cousin, I know it's only half-way through, it'll make you unhappy if you don't go up or down, but business isn't like that, you can lower the price! "

   "No, I'm suddenly not interested in you anymore."

  I'll go, you've changed!

Lu Bei was quite speechless. He was doing a good business. Zhu Qilan directly flipped the table, causing him to stop talking. He clenched his fists and coughed lightly: "Since I was seen through by my cousin, I will make a quibble. Yesterday I went to Xuanyin Division to resign. Listening to me looking for another job, I hugged my thigh and cried and cried, and gave a high price that I couldn't refuse."

Speaking of which, he saw Zhu Qilan's expressionless face and no intention to intervene, so he had to continue: "Cousin, you know me, you are loyal and affectionate, but I lack things like money, I can't refuse him, I can only come to find him. You increased the price."

  “…”

"Of course, you don't have to. We are all relatives. I will work for you for free. In the future, if there are any dangerous or life-threatening tasks that you can't handle alone, let me come. Don't frown."

   There is such a good thing, promise him!

   Butler Yu nodded again and again, it's free, no need for nothing.

  Zhu Qilan is not the case. The benevolent sees the emperor and sees the emperor. There is a ghost in his heart. The more he listens to Lu Bei's sophistry, the deeper he rejects him.

   That's right, free doesn't require money, but what he wants is human life!

   She glanced in the direction of the capital, and secretly scolded the stinky brother for being meddlesome. After a cold snort, she increased her tone: "Bai Yu, see you off!"

   "Wait a second."

"put!"

"Uh……"

  Lu Bei raised his finger and pointed at his face, then turned to Zhu Qilan, and said dryly: "Cousin, your face is not very good, Yintang is black, and there is a sign of being in a demon."

   "Your Highness, you...you..." Butler Yu raised his hand to cover his mouth, his face full of horror.

   After being reminded by the two of them, Zhu Qilan finally reacted. The demonic thoughts she had just suppressed revived, and it was much more aggressive than before. On her fair-skinned face, several black qi roamed back and forth, to the point where she couldn't suppress it alone.

  How is it possible, the festivals were not so frequent before.

  Zhu Qilan looked stiff, her heart was cold, and her complex mood was like a patient. She knew that she was not feeling well, but she did not expect to be so sick.

   She took a deep breath and looked at Lu Bei full of resentment. After a while, she said coldly, "Follow me to the quiet room, it's only half way through, okay, I promise you, but you'd better not regret it!"

  The cold air rushed to the spine from the bottom of his feet, Lu Bei shivered subconsciously, and followed Zhu Qilan carefully.

   Curiously looking at the black mist of demonic thoughts scurrying all over her body, she sorted out her thoughts, and after a long while, she was stunned that she did not understand the brain circuit of the female nerve.

  Maybe, probably...this is the so-called princess disease!

  ————

   Midnight, quiet room.

  The bright pearl lights up the dark room, Zhu Qilan sits cross-legged on the cloud bed, sweat soaks his clothes, blue silk sticks to his neck and cheeks, the delicate beauty's pale face is slightly flushed, and there is no temptation.

  The bone-chilling cold air dissipated, freezing the sweat-soaked clothes and drifting away, freezing Lu Bei in the back into a lump of ice.

  Crack!

  Lu Bei tried his best to break away from the ice, and the women in the secret cultivation world are troublesome, either poisonous or too cold, and there are not many normal people.

  Except for white brocade.

  Although she is decisive in killing, she can do things without saying anything, and is good at convincing people with reason, but Lu Bei knows that she is a gentle and good swordsman.

"Cousin, what's the matter with your demonic thoughts? It's aggressive and hard to suppress. Is it because of too many killings?" Lu Bei thought seriously. He didn't know much about Zhu Qilan. According to the analysis at the first meeting, he came to a killing intent. Too heavy conclusion.

   It seems that this is the case with the emperor, the killing intent is strong and difficult to suppress, and he jumps repeatedly between the magic and the normal.

   "Maybe, or maybe none of the ones who should be killed are dead."

  Zhu Qilan stood up and glanced at Lu Bei condescendingly: "The ugly words are ahead, you want to stay by my side, and be prepared to die at any time. I have many enemies, and everyone wants to kill me."

  They want to put you to death, that's their business, what are they doing to me?

  “???”

   A string of question marks floated across Lu Bei's forehead again, and he said speechlessly, "Cousin, stop stomping, squat down, your face is black again."

   Zhu Qilan gritted his teeth for a while, sat cross-legged on the ground with his back to Lu Bei, calmed down and ran the exercises silently.

   The demonic thoughts that emerged this time were not strong. With Lu Bei behind to help absorb them, Zhu Qilan quickly returned to normal.

   "Cousin, it's not a big deal to keep going like this. I came to you just to do odd jobs. If you say no one day, how can I ask for a salary?"

  Lu Bei frowned and said, "Let's analyze it, prescribe the right medicine, and strive to take down your demonic thoughts in these two days."

   "Shameless!!"

   "I'll go, you old woman, I've endured you for a long time."

   "Well said, why am I not!"

   Zhu Qilan sneered three times and walked towards the quiet room, unable to bear it any longer, and asked Lu Bei to go to the underground palace of Changming Mansion to fight for life and death.

   Micro card, out soon
