Chapter 144 I admit that I am ugly

After some persuasion by Li Qiushui, Ximen Tingxue and Wang Lianhua finally decided to change their son's marriage to an engagement banquet with Princess Huangfu Qingmei.

Because he didn't have the guts to kill Hou Qin first, the marriage would eventually have to go back to the Marshal's Mansion in Fucheng to handle the matter.

Huangfu Qingmei looked carefree. She had come all the way here just for Ximen Lone Star. Now it was better. Once the bride ran away, her relationship with Ximen Lone Star was confirmed.

Just thinking that I had slashed the door of the city lord's mansion with my sword, I felt a little sorry in my heart.

Wang Lianhua and Ximen Tingxue still liked the little witch in front of them more in their hearts, but they had no choice but to agree because their sons were insisting that Chen Shanshan not marry her.

Who's parent wouldn't be happy to have the Grand Marshal of Fucheng as his in-laws?

Only Li Qiushui was the happiest, because she found that the wedding dress she made was just as good as Huangfu Qingmei's.

After a long fight, Ximen Tingxue made a decision. She asked people to clean up the garbage in front of the city lord's palace, and told the guests in the flower hall that the wedding banquet would continue, but it would be called the engagement banquet.

When a group of guests heard that the bride had become the princess of the Grand Marshal of the city and were not willing to leave, they all expressed that they would finish the wedding wine before leaving.

There are only two people who want to leave most at this time.

One is Huangfu Qingmei, and the other is Li Qiushui.

Because both of them wanted to go to Li Xiuyuan's wine shop to have a drink. The wine shop was open today, and drinking would definitely be free. Otherwise, a glass of wine would cost ten spiritual stones.

...

On the wilderness, Chen Shanshan, who had been running all night, was resting under a tree. Even if she didn't rest, the wildebeest, which had been running all night, would also have to rest.

One person and one horse drank water and had their stomachs full. She was stroking her chest and panting.

He thought that if Li Xiuyuan hadn't come to Ding'an City, I might have got married to Ximen Lone Star...

He sighed and thought about how he could repay Li Xiuyuan for saving his life when he went back.

She has already left Ding'an City for nearly 800 miles, and will be able to return to the Great Wall in less than two days.

Returning to the Great Wall, she decided never to venture into the wilderness again.

It wasn't that she was afraid of death, but everything she had experienced was scarier than death.

While he was thinking about something, he suddenly saw a group of men in black on horseback not far from her rushing over. They rushed in front of her before she could react.

Chen Shanshan, who was about to draw her sword and confront her, heard a familiar voice: "The general has seen the young lady."

Chen Shanshan raised her eyes and saw that Chen Guangming, dressed in black, rushed over with dozens of Great Wall monks.

"Uncle Li, why are you here?" When Chen Shanshan saw Chen Guangming, it was like seeing her own father, and tears could not stop falling from her eyes.

Chen Guangming stepped forward, looked at her and said softly: "Just come back. Your father has been worried about you these days."

Chen Shanshan wiped away the tears on her face and said with a smile: "Didn't he send Li Xiuyuan here? Why worry about us anymore?"

Chen Guangming nodded and smiled: "I didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan really rescued the young lady. This is a great joy. Where are the others?" Li Xiuyuan was not found, which gave Chen Guangming a bad premonition.

Chen Shanshan replied softly: "That guy left after rescuing me. He said he was going to visit the house and asked Uncle Chen not to worry about him."

When Chen Guangming heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "This is also a careless guy."

"Could it be that something unexpected happened to Li Xiuyuan at the Great Wall?" Chen Shanshan separated from Li Xiuyuan as soon as she came to the Great Wall. She didn't know what happened to Li Xiuyuan at the Great Wall.

"It's a long story. Let's ask your father when we get back. If everything is okay, shall we set off now?" Chen Guangming was also afraid of another trouble on the road and just wanted to return to the Great Wall as soon as possible.

...

As midnight approached in the wine shop, cicadas began to chirp outside the house. Inside, Li Xiuyuan was guarding a pot of tea and a scroll of scriptures spread on the table.

On the first day of opening, they only sold some wine from the original shopkeeper and his cheapest black bean wine. As for the more expensive wine, the monks in Ding'an City don't know yet.

He was not in a hurry, he just wanted to spend some time slowly, selling wine while tempering his character.

In Ding'an City, he didn't dare to practice runes blatantly, but no one would notice when he copied scriptures. He was just an inconspicuous wine shop owner.

On the other hand, he had not waited for the news to come out of the city lord's palace, and he did not know how anxious the city lord and his son would be if the bride was missing.

There is also Huangfu Qingmei, who was thinking of leaving early in the morning and said she was going to the City Lord's Mansion to kill people. Is this a woman from Fucheng going to the City Lord's Mansion to cause trouble today?

What a double blessing for Li Xiuyuan? If he wasn't afraid of getting involved, he would really want to take a look at the city lord's mansion.

Today's Ding'an City Lord's Mansion must be the busiest day, right?

Just as he was thinking to himself, Li Qiushui's laughter came from outside the store door: "Say, little shopkeeper, your life is really leisurely. You can still write poems while guarding a pot of tea?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at this familiar woman and smiled lightly: "Did Shopkeeper Li drink the wedding wine from the City Lord's Mansion today? How did it taste?"

Li Qiushui sat down opposite him, stretched out his hand to pour himself a cup of tea, and chuckled: "To be precise, I drank a glass of surprise wine. How can the wine in the City Lord's Mansion be as good as yours?"

Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and said with a smile: "What is drunkenness? Tell me."

Li Qiushui sighed and said with a smile: "This matter has to start with the woman in white clothes from Fucheng... You haven't seen that woman, but she smashed the door of the city lord's mansion to pieces with two swords.

..."

Li Xiuyuan was delighted when he heard that not only was the bride missing, but a troublemaking woman also came.

"I know that woman. She came to my shop yesterday to look for a drink." Li Xiuyuan looked at Li Qiushui and replied calmly.

"So what, I made such a fuss and made a fuss, but in the end I didn't marry that bastard honestly. It really gave him an advantage." Li Qiushui looked at Li Xiuyuan and said faintly.

That look was like a good cabbage being eaten by a pig.

Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled: "Maybe she and that boy are also childhood sweethearts?"

Li Qiushui was stunned for a moment, thought thoughtfully, nodded and replied: "What you said makes sense. The deeper the love, the deeper the hatred. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come all the way from the capital to cause trouble.

Already."

"Drink tea! This matter has nothing to do with me, I don't care." Li Xiuyuan took a deep breath and pretended that he was not interested.

Li Qiushui was startled, then looked at the young man in front of him and laughed: "Hey! You are in a bad mood. Could it be that there is no business on the first day of business?"

Li Xiuyuan ignored her and just quietly held the wolf hair and continued to write on the paper. When he finished writing a line of words, he raised his head and said calmly: "This morning, I sold ten kilograms of black bean wine and earned some silver coins."

Li Qiushui looked at him and smiled and said: "Don't be afraid that sister is here." Before he finished speaking, he took twelve spiritual stones and put them on the table. "Then the wine left by the old shopkeeper will be given to me, and I will also buy two jars of sorghum.

Try soju."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at her and smiled: "It seems that you got a lot of rewards from the City Lord's Mansion today!"

When Li Qiu Shui heard this, he couldn't help but glared at him and said with a smile: "I earned hard-earned money, how can you sell me ten spiritual stones for a glass of wine? You are robbing me of money!"

Li Xiuyuan looked at her and sighed, and continued to lower his head to read the writing on the paper: "I just want to rob money, so someone has to come over and let me rob him willingly."

Li Qiushui felt a ripple in his heart when he looked at the young man in front of him who was not at all moved by the major events happening in the City Lord's Mansion, and was only focusing on the wolf hair in his hand.

What kind of state of mind do you need to cultivate to so that you will not be tempted by external influences at all?

"The wine in the City Lord's Mansion doesn't taste good. Go and pour me a glass."

After hearing these words, Li Xiuyuan raised his head and looked at her, smiled lightly and said, "You went to have a wedding banquet, why haven't you had enough?"

Li Qiu Shui said angrily: "Are you deliberately making me angry? You feel like a shopkeeper when you put on this white robe? So you can laugh at me?"

Li Xiuyuan knew that he couldn't defeat her, so he had to put down the wolf hair he was holding and went to the counter to pour her a glass of wine and serve it to her.

Suddenly, he thought of what Li Qiushui said the other day. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Looking at your attitude, are you determined to take advantage of my small wine shop?"

Li Qiu Shui put down the tea in his hand, took the wine glass handed over by Li Xiu Yuan, brought it to his lips and took a sip. After a while, he said quietly: "This is the real intestinal poison, the poison that can harm people.

"

Li Xiuyuan glanced at her and said calmly: "I can teach you. In the beginning of spring, we have to brew intestinal poison. You can come and learn as much as you can."

"Why do we have to wait until spring to brew?" Li Qiushui replied angrily.

"Only in those days could you brew fine wine. Now you can only sell one piece of spiritual stone per kilogram at most." Li Xiuyuan said quietly without hiding anything from her.

Anyway, he didn't stay here for long. Once there was news about Shenlong, he would have to find a way to take action soon. Li Qiushui really wanted to learn, so he didn't mind teaching her.

"Let's talk about it then." Li Qiushui shook his head, thinking how could he bear the hardship? He might as well think of a way to earn more spiritual stones.

She also didn't know that Li Xiuyuan was just a passer-by in Ding'an City. It wasn't until many years later, when the two met again, that she regretted not learning the wine-making technique from Li Xiuyuan.

After taking two sips of wine, Li Qiushui said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the woman in the prison disappeared out of thin air. It turns out that Mr. Ximen is from Fucheng and has a fiancée."

Li Xiuyuan also didn't expect that the person Huangfu Qingmei liked was Ximen Lone Star, who had captured Chen Shanshan.

He glared at her and said, "Isn't this good? Everyone is happy. Those who wanted to marry finally got married, and those who didn't want to marry didn't dare not marry. I'm afraid even the storyteller in the teahouse couldn't make up this story."

In his opinion, he has no emotions whether it is the Great Wall or the wilderness. Regardless of the future battle between the two parties, he has only one purpose here, which is to fulfill his promise to the ancient Canglong.

As for Guiguzi on the Great Wall, I believe that in less than ten years, his teacher will also cross the threshold of being a Talisman Master. As long as he can succeed, it can be regarded as fulfilling the student's promise to the teacher.

"You want me to tell you what are you thinking about?" Li Qiushui looked up at him and said, "Look at how old you are. I'm afraid your brain is full of spiritual stones, right?"

"Isn't it good to think about spiritual stones?" Li Xiuyuan looked up at the pedestrians passing by on the street and said calmly: "If I didn't have spiritual stones, would you have made custom clothes for me when I went to your store that day?"

Li Qiushui was startled, holding a half glass of wine and looking at Li Xiuyuan speechless.

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and smiled at her: "Nothing else. I know that in the wilderness, you rely on your spiritual stones and skills, not your face."

When Li Qiu Shui heard this, he couldn't help but chuckled: "So, you rely on your strength to make a living? Why don't you take off this mask and show me to my sister, maybe..."

Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said softly: "I admit that I am ugly, so I won't be embarrassed by you."

Li Xiuyuan, who knew very well, knew that as soon as his eyes came out, he would cause a bigger wave than the black talisman arrow on the Great Wall.
