Chapter 10 He's So Easy To Lie
Chapter 10 He is so deceptive
Look at the sword!
Look at the legs!
Look at the flying sword!
These three moves seemed to be imprinted in Xingqiu's heart forever, and they also opened the door to a new world for him.
For the first time, he knew that a fight could be fought like this.
"It seems like you won?" Shi Lan took off his protective gear and said in a disappointed tone.
Although his last wave of attacks was very powerful, Xingqiu had already suffered many "wounds" on his body before that.
From the abdomen to the shoulders and the heart, there were more than a dozen sword marks, large and small. If it were realistic, he would have bled to death long ago, and there would be no follow-up at all.
There was no way, after all, Shi Lan relied on brute force and instinct, which could not match Xingqiu's professional swordsmanship.
"No, you won." Xingqiu took off his helmet, and there was an eye-catching sword mark on it, which was the mark made by Shi Lan when he raised his hand at the beginning.
"You made me understand that those so-called showpieces are useless...On the real battlefield, this will only give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."
"Correct, reasonable."
Shi Lan accepted the compliment without hesitation.
He also secretly admired Xingqiu's talent. In just half a year, he had such fighting power, which reminded him of Xingqiu's heroic words three years ago.
"The top swordsman will definitely defeat the holder of the Eye of God."
Maybe, when Xingqiu grows up, he can really do it.
Xingqiu seemed to have thought about it, his face looked much better than before, and his mood gradually recovered, and he said to Shi Lan: "Qian Kong has strength and speed, but lacks skills. Otherwise, why don't you go to Guhua Sect with me to learn swordsmanship?"
"
"Learn swordsmanship..." Shi Lan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "Compared with Hanfeng Iron Weapon, I prefer to use fists and feet... However, I still understand that it is difficult for two fists to defeat a gun and sword. If the Guhua Sect has
As for the two-handed sword course, I can go and learn it. It feels good to have a heavy weight in my hand. Forget about one-handed sword..."
Xingqiu shook his head in disappointment: "Guhua Sect doesn't seem to teach two-handed swords. But if you want to learn two-handed swords, you can talk to Chongyun. He uses two-handed swords."
"Yeah." Chongyun smiled and nodded, expressing his superb skills.
"Can he... do it?" Shi Lan was doubtful.
He knew that Chongyun was a demon exorcist, and he also knew that he had achieved numerous results, but he had never seen Chongyun actually take action.
Seeing Chongyun lowering his head in disappointment, Shi Lan changed the topic: "But I am still willing to learn simple skills, as long as you have time to teach me..."
"That's no problem!" Chongyun became happy again. He was very depressed because his martial arts skills were not recognized or needed. Now that he had this opportunity, he was willing to teach him everything: "I will be at home every night. The weather is hot.
If you do, I will be at home, you just need to come, and I can teach you everything I know."
"That's a deal!"
Waving goodbye to Xingqiu, who was applying ointment to his face, Shi Lan finally collected the three hundred questionnaires at nine o'clock in the evening.
"Next, go to Yuehai Pavilion to find Ningguang. This trip can earn you 4,000 molas."
4,000 molas is already a good income, enough for a family of three to meet their daily needs for about a week.
Especially since Dad Shishan has to be bedridden during this period, this income is very important.
Yujing Terrace, Yuehai Pavilion, this is where Liyue's high-level officials handle affairs, such as Ganyu, Ningguang, etc., and can go up to the Seven Stars of Liyue. If you have the opportunity, you can see the dignity of the superiors here.
Even though Ningguang is not yet a Seven Star, her reputation and status have reached their peak. There are rumors that this generation of Tianquan Star has already appointed Ningguang as the next generation of Tianquan*. Next, as long as Ningguang performs outstandingly in the election,
, Tianquan’s position is basically certain.
Therefore, even if Shi Lan has little vision, he still knows that he should hold on to Ning Guang's thigh and hang out with the big guys, so that he can be popular and drink spicy food.
"Stop! Who is that?" Qian Yanjun from Yuehai Pavilion spotted the boy carrying a cloth bag and stopped him.
Shi Lan took out the exclusive pass issued by Ningguang: "I'm here to see Miss Ningguang."
"Well... the pass is authentic. Wait a moment, Master Ningguang is dealing with important matters. I'll go and report it."
The officers and soldiers of the Qianyan Army left as quickly as they came, and the reporting process did not keep Shi Lan waiting for too long.
"You can go in."
Shi Lan spread his hands: "I said, I come here every day and we are considered acquaintances. You don't need to stop me all the time."
The Qianyan Army officer shook his head: "The rules still have to be followed."
"Okay, I respect your work."
Shi Lan tidied up his appearance, walked to the door with his head held high, and knocked on the door.
"Come in." It was Ye Lan who opened the door.
She was much taller than Shi Lan, so Shi Lan had to raise his head slightly to look at her.
"Good evening, Sister Yelan."
"Actually, you can come and hand in the task in time tomorrow." Ye Lan looked at him with her hands on her hips.
She was talking to Ning Guang about something.
"It's okay, I don't mind." Shi Lan walked into Yuehai Pavilion with a familiar look.
Ye Lan held her forehead: "You're so welcome..."
The decoration here is magnificent, no matter how many times he comes here, Shi Lan will be dazzled every time.
The floor is paved with fine red cherry wood. It is said that this kind of wood can only be found in Inazuma. The pendant lamp in the middle of the hall is inlaid with night stone. Candlesticks are also placed at the four corners of the house. The cold and warm lights match. Although the indoor
It was very bright, but Shi Lan was not used to this kind of light.
Climbing the spiral staircase to the second floor, Ningguang naturally has to work upstairs.
Turning the corner, a large screen in the middle divides the hall into two sections. The outside section is where other employees handle work. There are also a few maids cleaning next to it. These are Ningguang's confidants, serving only Ningguang alone.
.
"I guess Sister Ningguang won't be able to live here for long. She will move to Yujing Terrace after becoming a Seven Star."
Shi Lan was waiting in front of the screen, looking at the paintings on the screen.
It is not difficult to recognize the beautiful scenery in the painting as the mountains among the clouds, which is the most beautiful scenery in Liyue.
Shi Lan made up her mind to see it with her own eyes if she had the chance.
"Ningguang, Shi Lan is here." Ye Lan also followed.
For some reason, Ye Lan didn't treat Ning Guang with the same respectful attitude as others, but instead acted very casually.
Yelan's style and attitude made Shi Lan sometimes worry about her whether Ningguang would wear small shoes for her.
"Let the little one come in." A pleasant voice came from behind the screen, accompanied by a little laziness.
"You can go in." Ye Lan said.
Shi Lan wanted to complain: "I can hear it."
"Sister Ningguang!"
With a change of expression, Shi Lan walked into the screen and could see the most powerful woman in Liyue in the future, Ning Guang.
"Have you done all your work?"
Ning Guang is sitting behind her desk, leaning forward slightly on the desk. She puts her black-gloved arm on the desk, supports her face with the back of her hand, and plays with her cigarette pouch with her other hand, feeling lazy and leisurely.
, this kind of Ning Guang is something ordinary people cannot see.
Shi Lan looked serious and said seriously: "Everything is done."
"hehe……"
Ning Guang couldn't help laughing when she saw Shi Lan's pretended serious expression.
The sound is like a silver bell, soft and gentle.
"You don't have to look so serious in front of me. It's okay to be more relaxed."
Shi Lan immediately put down his serious look, took out the questionnaire from his pocket and put it on the table.
"I distributed and collected all the questionnaires in one afternoon, and they are all here." Shi Lan said with a smile, "I'm exhausted."
"Thank you for your hard work." Ning Guangsu held up a questionnaire in his hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the questionnaire briefly, and raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.
She was very satisfied with these answers.
"Did you really complete it by yourself? I gave you two days to complete the three hundred questionnaires. I didn't expect you to be so capable. You completed it in one afternoon?"
Ningguang's voice was very soft and plain, making it impossible to hear her true thoughts.
"Uh... this..." Shi Lan's brain was working rapidly, and then he sighed and answered truthfully: "I asked my friends for help, and it's not just my fault."
Liyue couldn't hide anything from Ningguang, he still knew this, Ningguang didn't like children who lied.
This is the rich woman who finally made it to the list, and he is pointing at her for food.
"Hehehe..." Ningguang couldn't help but laugh again and put down his cigarette bag, "What a reliable little guy."
"Okay, don't be too nervous." Ning Guang leaned lazily on the back of the sofa, looking at this little guy and really couldn't help but want to tease him.
"What was the reward agreed upon earlier?"
Shi Lan immediately became energetic and stretched out four fingers: "4000 Mora!"
Ningguang opened the drawer, pretending to be surprised, took out a 10,000 mola and shook it at his fingertips: "Oh, I don't have any change here. I'll give you 10,000 mola. How about you give me change?"
Yelan leaned against the pillar and tilted her head, seeming to notice something, feeling that the condensed light was trying to trick people...
"this……"
Shi Lan counted the number of molas on his body, and there were exactly 6,000 left, six molas of one thousand denominations.
Just give change, but you are clearly getting paid for completing tasks, so why does it feel like buying something and doing a transaction...
(I thought all the ten thousand molas would be given to me...)
After exchanging the money, Shi Lan said happily: "Then I'll go back first. If I have any other tasks, just ask Sister Yelan to tell me."
Yelan curled her lips: "I'm not an errand boy..."
Having received his reward, Shi Lan said goodbye. It was already getting very late and he had to go home to sleep. There was no time to chat here. Moreover, Yelan and Ningguang were obviously talking about something. It would be safe to leave quickly.
wrong.
After turning around and walking not far, Ningguang suddenly stopped Shi Lan, shook the mola in his hand, and said: "Little guy, wait a minute. I just found 4,000 mola here. How about you give me one?"
Will you return Wanmora to me? How about it?"
Yelan chuckled.
(You won’t fall for this little trick, right?)
There is no suspense.
Shi Lan just scratched his head and didn't react for a while. He muttered that it was really troublesome, then he took the 4,000 Mora and returned the 10,000, and ran out with his short legs.
Ye Lan was stunned and saw in disbelief that Shi Lan really just left like that. She couldn't help holding her forehead and sighing softly.
"As expected of you, Shi Lan."
"Why are you laughing?" Ningguang teased Shi Lan, and his dull mood improved a lot. He threw the 10,000 molas to Ye Lan: "Send it to Shi Lan's house. His father is injured. Can he
Those who help should help."
Then she added: "Anyway, you're on the way, it's just a little effort."
"Eh? You're going back again?" Ye Lan's expression was stunned: "Then why did you just..."
"I just wanted to tease him, but I didn't expect him to actually..."
Yelan spread her hands: "Is it fun to lie to a child?"
"Indeed." Ningguang looked at the questionnaire in his hand: "Suddenly I felt no sense of achievement at all... but a sense of guilt..."
