Ma Wu accepted the invitation, but did not agree to attend the banquet.
Yang Yanzheng glanced at the stairs and smiled slightly: "Fifth Master, I heard that you have a friend here. He is a very capable person. Can you introduce him to me?"
Ma Wu shook his head and said: "My friend is not here today, you can come back another day."
Yang Yanzheng nodded and smiled: "It seems that your friend is indeed quite capable. Fifth Young Master, I'll be waiting for you on your birthday."
After leaving Lanyang Village, Yang Yanzheng walked quickly and walked back to Lushui City in less than fifteen minutes. This is the strength of the fourth-level travel cultivator.
When they arrived at the residence of Miss Chu's second daughter, Chu Huaiyuan, Yang Yanzheng recounted the story completely.
Miss Chu Er inserted a silver needle into her fingertip, then slowly pulled it out, sucked the blood from her fingertip, changed her finger, and inserted it again:
"He didn't agree on the spot and said he would consider it?"
Yang Yanzheng nodded and said, "That's what he said."
Chu Er sneered: "You think that if you kill those ruffians, this matter will be over? He is also a smart man, why should I teach him this?
On my birthday, if he doesn't come, tell Song Jiasen that Ma Wu was hunting in the new land of Lanyang Village and didn't deliver goods to his house. I have proof."
Yang Yanzheng leaned down slightly and said respectfully: "Song Jiasen is a man who loves money as much as his life. If I tell him this matter, the Fifth Young Master may not be able to escape."
Chu Huaiyuan sneered: "Song Jiasen, that old dog, would never dare to kill Ma Wu, but he would take half of Ma Wu's life.
I gave Ma five faces, but he didn’t want it, so he deserved the half life he gave away.
This person should endure more hardships before he can know what sweetness is."
…
Li Banfeng sat up from the bed and rubbed his eyes.
The more he rubbed, the more excited he became, and he was unwilling to stop until his eyes were red.
His body has regained consciousness, his eyes can feel, and his hands can feel.
Chichi~
The record rotated slowly on the tray, and the record player sang softly: "Sir, why did you take so many elixirs yesterday?"
This question must be answered carefully.
Li Banfeng said with a serious expression: "Elixirs are great tonics. I thought there would be no harm in eating them."
Chichi~
Da da da da~ 唔!
The gongs and drums guy played a string of sounds, and the record player continued to ask: "Ms. sir, why do you need to take supplements?"
"Because I've been overworked lately."
"Ms. sir, why are you working so hard?" the record player continued to ask.
"It's all about supporting the family."
"Ms. sir, with your financial resources today, is it still difficult to make ends meet?"
Hiss~
The copper lotus flower that was refining alchemy in the outer room was covered with dew.
She sweated a lot for Li Banfeng.
Never tell anyone about your travel training!
Otherwise, Li Banfeng would die on the spot, and no one would be able to leave in the future!
Li Banfeng replied calmly: "Madam, do you think that I picked up Lu Dongliang, the ninth-level travel cultivator, by luck?"
Da da da da~ 唔!
The lyrics on the record player became gentle: "How can you pick up such precious ingredients casually? My husband must have earned it with all his strength. It's my slave who talks too much. Don't take offense to my husband.
It's just that my husband ate so many Jin Yuan Dan rashly, which really puzzles me."
Li Banfeng said in a calm tone: "I met a strong enemy last night. I couldn't defeat him or get rid of him.
In desperation, I took thirty-eight Jin Yuan Dan, just to raise my cultivation to a higher level and fight him again.
As a result, after taking the elixir, I was infected with erysipelas. I was no longer able to fight as before, but I couldn't move anymore. Fortunately, I had the ability to return home like an arrow, so I ran back home."
When he said these words, the steam kept lingering around Li Banfeng, and he didn't notice anything unusual.
She was testing whether Li Banfeng was lying.
In fact, what Li Banfeng said was true.
This powerful enemy is the backlash of cultivation.
The record player caressed Li Banfeng's cheek: "Good official, Xiaonu has said many times that elixirs are of no use to the cultivation of the house. Why don't you believe in the slave family?"
Li Banfeng snorted coldly and said: "Other sects take pills, why can't I take them? I always feel that you are lying to me."
The steam circled Li Banfeng's body and hovered gently: "Children, how can anyone in the world treat you as sincerely as Xiaonu? Although this Jinyuan Dan is not beneficial to Langjun's cultivation, it can at least strengthen his body.
The elixir refined by Red Lotus is much purer than ordinary elixirs. The elixir is not too toxic, so you can just eat it.
My husband, please be sure not to eat the elixirs refined in other places. Some erysipelas are not so easy to dissolve. Sir, please listen to what I say. I am always doing it for your own good. I am dedicated to you..."
There was hidden murderous intent in the soft words, and the record player kept testing whether Li Banfeng was telling the truth.
But the steam swirled to my waist and suddenly stopped.
"Lang Jun, are you happy again?"
Li Banfeng sighed softly: "To be so caressing like a lady... I have no choice but to do so."
"Have these pants been washed just the day before yesterday?"
Li Banfeng nodded and said: "I've worn it for two days, it's time to change it."
"You said it's easy! But it's not you!" The record player was furious, and steam filled the room, "I've been telling you what to do about consummation all day long, but with your little ability, if I really consummate it with you, you can do a lot!
"
Li Banfeng quickly changed his clothes and left his home.
"The ends of the earth and the ends of the earth, looking for a close friend~"
The record player was singing a ditty, and Li Banfeng was doing his laundry first.
The dewdrops on the copper lotus flowers in the outer room gradually dissipated.
Tang Dao snorted coldly and whispered to himself: "It turns out there are some things that the mistress doesn't know about."
He often followed Li Banfeng to fight outside, and he suspected that Li Banfeng might have also studied travel training.
Hiss~
The petals of the copper lotus bloom slowly, and a whirlwind rises from the heart of the lotus.
Tang Dao trembled, retreated into a corner and said: "I don't know either, I don't know anything."
…
After returning to the wooden house, Li Banfeng looked at the sky and realized that he had slept in his cabin all night.
When I walked downstairs, I saw Ma Wumo sitting in the living room, frowning.
Li Banfeng looked at the newspaper on the table and pretended to be surprised: "It turns out something happened to the Lu family!"
Not only had something happened, Lu Dongliang was also dead, but no one except Li Banfeng knew about it for the time being.
Ma Wu spread out the newspapers one by one and said to Li Banfeng: "If something happens to the Lu family, it means something big is going to happen to the entire Puluo Prefecture.
This is news about the He family. Judging from He Haiqin’s attitude, the He family is going to fight the Lu family to the end. It is said that even his brother He Haisheng has returned from out of state."
He Haisheng?
Isn't that He Jiaqing's third uncle?
Since he can come back, it proves that He Jiaqing is fine.
Ma Wu brought out another stack of newspapers: "This is news about the Ma family. It's all news about land reclamation. The Ma family just wants to withdraw all their business and money and try not to get involved with the Lu family.
This is news from the Chu family. Contrary to the Ma family, the Chu family now wants to expand its business. Miss Chu Second has reached out to Paramount. She is trying to fish in troubled waters."
After reading the newspaper, Li Banfeng nodded and said: "The situation is very chaotic, but it seems to have nothing to do with us."
"It does matter, it matters a lot!" Ma Wu took out the invitation, "Miss Chu Er's birthday is the day after tomorrow, and she asked me to go to her house for a banquet. Do you think I should go or not?"
Li Banfeng said in shock: "She is still pestering you? She has real feelings for you!"
"What feelings can she have for me? She wants to use me to involve the Ma family. Brother Li, can't you see it?"
Li Banfeng really couldn't tell: "Weren't you kicked out of the Ma family?"
"But my surname is Ma after all!"
"Then you just bite the bullet and take the last name Li with me!" Li Banfeng's last name came from the caretaker of the welfare home. He didn't take the matter of his last name too seriously.
"What your surname is, it doesn't matter." Ma Wuyi didn't know how to express the current situation, "I don't want to..."
Li Banfeng said: "You don't want to involve the Ma family?"
Ma Wu shook his head and said, "I'm not thinking about the Ma family. I'm not worthy. I'm thinking about myself.
When two wealthy families fight, I will be a puppet on a string in the middle. Brother Li, you know the consequences. If the two wealthy families exert even a little force, I will be shattered to pieces."
Li Banfeng could imagine Ma Wu's situation at that time, so he simply put the invitation on the table and burned it: "Now that you have thought about it clearly, don't go."
Ma Wu looked at the invitation: "Yang Yanzheng, the steward of the Chu family, is here. He said that if I don't go, I will have to endure the suffering I suffered before."
Li Banfeng was startled: "Come to steal money again? Is this Miss Chu Er so difficult to deal with?"
Ma Wu sighed: "I have been thinking about it all night, but I still can't think of a way to deal with her."
"Then don't think about it, pack up and go hunting in new places. We can even deal with Mrs. Demi Moth, why are we afraid that we can't deal with her?"
…
In the Chu family's residence, Miss Chu's second daughter celebrated her birthday, and guests were waiting in the hall.
But Ma Wu didn't come.
Chu Huaiyuan sat in the bedroom, looked in the mirror, and put on a blush first.
Then she aimed at the blush and inserted a dagger into her face.
Steward Yang Yanzheng reminded from the side: "Miss, we have to meet guests later."
"It doesn't matter." Chu Huaiyuan pulled out the dagger, wiped the blood on her face, and used a layer of special powder to stop the bleeding and cover the wound.
She turned back and glanced at Yang Yanzheng: "Why are you still standing there? Go to Lanyang Village!"
…
Lu Dongjun sat in the mansion and sat quietly all night.
He Yuxiu sent a message to him, asking him to attend a banquet at Qianyue Restaurant tomorrow and confront him about who harmed Lu Dongliang.
Lu Dongjun convened a family meeting for this purpose and waited until dawn, but no one responded.
Some of the rumors are correct. Lu Dongjun's status in the family is not even as good as that of Hou Qiu!
Counselor Wan Jinxian reminded: "Master, if you are absolutely sure, it is okay for you to go to Qianyue Tower. If you are not sure, you must not go this time."
Lu Dongjun is not sure, so why not go?
How to gain a foothold in the Lu family in the future?
He turned to look at Wan Jinxian and said with a smile: "Old Wan, I'm tired and want to take a rest. Please guard the door for me and tell no one to enter my house. You don't even have to bring me food."
Wan Jinxian was shocked: "Master, are you trying to..."
"Just do as you are told." Lu Dongjun returned to the bedroom, took out a stone lion over a foot tall from the closet, and placed it at the door.
He took out a false tooth from his mouth and put it into the lion's mouth. The lion's eyes lit up.
As long as the dentures are not taken out, the lion's eyes will remain bright, and no one else, except Lu Dongjun, can enter or leave the room easily.
After making arrangements, Lu Dongjun took out a necklace.
…
At twelve o'clock at noon, He Yuxiu booked a reservation at Qianyue Restaurant, and when Lu Dongjun came to the banquet, many distinguished people from the two major families also came.
He Yuxiu sat on the throne, wearing a large fur cloak, and ordered his subordinates to play a piece of music.
The subordinate took the record, put it on the record player, and played the song "The Full Moon and the Flowers Are Good".
She wanted to calm down the anger in her heart, but after playing several songs, the fire was not suppressed.
If Lu Dongjun tells the truth today, things will still be eased. If he dares to frame He Yuxiu again, He Yuxiu is ready to kill him.
After waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, He Yuxiu looked at the Lu family and said, "Is Lu Dongjun a leader? If he doesn't dare to come today, he has a guilty conscience. Lu Dongliang will die in his hands!"
Before he finished speaking, a subordinate came up to deliver a message: "Auntie, the uncle of the Lu family is here."
"Well done, let him come up quickly, let him..." He Yuxiu was startled, "Who did you say is here?"
"Uncle of the Lu family, Lu Dongliang!"
PS: Will Tang Dao threaten Ban Feng with this matter in the future? He seems to know a lot.
Chapter completed!
