Seeing Chen Xuan's shock and frustration, Gongsun Zhi just glanced at him, seeming to blame him.
However, he was about to hold a wedding banquet, so it was difficult to break the news, so he could only change the subject.
"Liu Mei, they are all martial arts masters. It is a great honor to invite just one of them, let alone invite... invite..."
He wanted to say "six", but he felt that Chen Xuan and Yang Guo had just made trouble, and he didn't like it. But if he ignored him deliberately, it would be too deliberate. After a slight hesitation, he could only say perfunctorily.
"...Invited these heroes."
Everyone in the hall saw his reaction and thought.
"This Valley Master is so majestic. Look at the way he set up a fishing net to capture the old naughty boy. His martial arts and ingenuity are very good, but he didn't expect that his weapon is so small. The young hero said a few words to the woman in white, and he became angry because of it.
In my arms."
Gongsun Zhi did not pay attention to everyone's eyes and continued to introduce.
"Liu Mei, this is Jinlun Dharma King. He is the national master of Mongolia. He practices tantric martial arts and is very powerful. This is Ma Guangzuo..."
He went on talking about it one by one, and finally when he came to Chen Xuan, he just skipped it.
The woman only nodded slightly when she heard everyone's name, her face was blank, as if she didn't care about anything at all, but she didn't even nod to Chen Xuan, and looked towards the outside of the hall.
Chen Xuan clenched his teeth, his heart was in turmoil, and he didn't even listen to a word Gongsun Zhi said.
Nimoxing, Yin Kexi and others who were present did not know the relationship between him and Xiao Longnu. They just thought that he had recognized the wrong person and felt embarrassed.
However, Gongsun Lu'e stood behind her father, and Chen Xuan's words and actions did not escape her eyes.
She secretly thought, "He suffered the pain of lovesickness when his finger was pricked by a love flower before. Looking at his appearance now, is my new mother really the one he likes? How can things in the world be like this?
What a coincidence? Could it be that he and these people came to my valley just for me, the bride?"
After thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but turn my head and look at the woman in white. I saw that there was no joy or worry on her face. She really didn't look like she was going to be a newlywed, and I felt even more suspicious.
Chen Xuan suddenly encountered this situation, feeling stuffy in his chest and almost suffocating.
On the one hand, Xiao Longnu was as beautiful as a fairy, so he was naturally very reluctant to part with her.
Furthermore, he and Xiao Longnu were destined heroes. Logically speaking, since there was a fateful entanglement, it was impossible for Xiao Longnu to forget him. Why was she so indifferent to him now?
Chen Xuan vaguely realized that there must be a huge reason, and it must be related to the Black Horn Society.
He quickly calmed down and thought to himself.
"Since Xiao Longnu doesn't recognize me, there must be a reason. I can't mess up now. I must look for opportunities to find out the truth."
Thinking of this, he changed his stunned expression, stood up straight, bowed to Gongsun Zhi, and said loudly.
"The owner of the valley is surprised. I have a respected relative who looks very similar to... this girl. I accidentally misidentified the two of them just now. This has caused such a big misunderstanding. Please don't blame me."
After hearing what he said, Valley Master Gongsun was humble, courteous, and extremely polite. Thinking again that the momentum he had just struck was quite impressive and that he had some ability, he immediately changed his face, bowed his head, and said.
"There are so many people in this world. It is normal to recognize the wrong person for a moment. Why is it wrong? It's just..."
He paused and said with a smile, "There is another person with her appearance in the world. That is not only a coincidence, but also extremely strange."
The implication is that he is praising his bride as unparalleled in the world.
Chen Xuan waited for him to say this and asked casually.
"Yes, I am also very strange. I would like to ask, may I ask this girl's surname?"
Gongsun Zhi smiled slightly and said, "Her surname is Liu. That relative of yours is also surnamed Liu?"
Chen Xuan smiled calmly, "That's not true."
As he smiled, he seemed to notice that Xiao Longnu glanced at him. Something suddenly stirred in his heart, and his fingers suddenly started to hurt.
Gongsun Lv'e saw his brows furrowed slightly, hiding an expression of pain, and felt pity for him. His eyes never left his face.
Gongsun Zhi seemed to be aware of it. He stared at Yang Guo for a moment and then looked at the girl in white. He saw her lowering her head and eyebrows, saying nothing. He felt suspicious and thought again.
"She heard this guy calling just now, and I faintly heard her say 'Guo'er.' Could it be that she is really this guy's aunt? But why don't you recognize him now?"
Thinking of this, I wanted to ask, but since there were so many outsiders at the moment, it wouldn't be too late to ask about this later after the wedding, so I kept my mouth shut as I spoke.
Chen Xuan endured the love poison, and when the severe pain in his hand subsided slightly, he asked again.
"This Miss Liu doesn't seem to be from the valley. How did the owner of the valley get to know her?"
In ancient times, women would never meet outsiders easily, and they would not see guests on auspicious days when they got married. However, Jinlun Dharma King and others were either barbarians from the Western Regions or from different walks of life, so they never adhered to customary etiquette.
At present, I am not surprised to see this woman in white showing up, but I feel that it is too out of place for her to be naked on such auspicious days.
But now that I heard Chen Xuan asking the valley owner how he got acquainted with the woman in white, I still felt that it was a bit excessive.
After all, this matter involves Gongsun Zhi and his wife's own family affairs, so you can't ask casually.
Gongsun Zhi didn't care about this, and he was even slightly curious, thinking: "Maybe this guy really knows Liu Mei."
He was also curious about the origin of the woman in white. In addition, he had just heard Chen Xuan call Xiao Longnu his aunt, so he expected that the two were just relatives. Although they were talented and beautiful, they were not too closely related.
So he said frankly, "Half a month ago, I went to the valley to collect medicine, and I met her lying at the foot of the mountain, seriously injured, and dying. After a little inspection, I found out that she was obsessed with practicing Qigong, and her internal breath was disordered, and her eight meridians were abnormal.
They were all shocked, so they rescued her back to the valley and used family elixirs to help her recuperate. Speaking of the reason for our acquaintance, it was really accidental."
Hearing this, Ma Guangzuo joked casually, "This is the so-called marriage of a thousand miles. It must be that Miss Liu knows how to repay her kindness and is committed to her work. She is really a talented man and a beautiful woman, and a match made in heaven."
His original intention was to flatter Gongsun Zhi when he said this. Unexpectedly, when the woman in white heard this, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and the blood stains appeared on her white clothes.
Chen Xuan seemed to feel something in his heart, and then he vomited blood inexplicably.
The two people looked at each other, as if there was something indescribable, and there was an inexplicable concern in their hearts.
"Liu Mei!" Seeing this, Gongsun Zhi hurriedly protected the woman in white and helped her into the inner room to recover from her injuries.
Before leaving, Gongsun Zhi did not forget to turn around and give Chen Xuan a cold look, obviously realizing that he and Xiao Longnu were involved in something else.
The pain in Chen Xuan's heart was unbearable. He didn't have time to chase after him, but he had already vaguely thought of a possibility in his heart.
"This...is this understanding between two minds?!"
He reacted suddenly and suddenly realized that Xiao Longnu was most likely poisoned.
Huang Rong had been poisoned by this poison before, so she lost her memory for a long time. In the end, Chen Xuan and her were exposed together to practice together to release all the power of the poison. Only then did the poison disappear and she regained some of her memory.
"Sure enough, I have known for a long time that Little Dragon Girl would never forget me. It seems that she was chased by masters of the Black Horn Society on the cliff near Jueqing Valley. After being poisoned by poison, she knew she was outmatched, so she took the risk.
He jumped off the cliff and was accidentally rescued by Gongsun Zhi."
While Chen Xuan frowned and thought, he couldn't help but sigh that there was God's will in this. He, Xiao Longnu, and Huang Rong were considered the darlings of this world, so that every time they encountered danger, they could avoid it.
For a moment, Chen Xuan couldn't help but sigh that Yang Guo was really lucky.
However, it was obvious that it was not time for him to complain yet. Although Xiao Longnu escaped from the pursuit of the masters of the Black Horn Society, she was now in the hands of Gongsun Zhi.
Chen Xuan knew that Gongsun Zhi's martial arts were not weak. The most important thing was that Chen Xuan himself was inexplicably stabbed by the love flower and was now poisoned by the love flower.
According to the plot, he, Yang Guo, can't defeat Gongsun Zhi at this time. So in the case of Xiao Longnu, he can't defeat her but can only outwit her.
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan looked around the crowd, his eyes passed over Jinlun Dharma King and others, and fell on Gongsun Lu'e.
Gongsun Lu'e had been looking at him, and when he saw him looking up at her, his eyes immediately dodge, how could he not know that he was just asking for something from her.
Sure enough, when everyone in the hall saw Gongsun Zhi taking Xiao Longnu to the inner room, they all sat down casually in twos and threes and started chatting.
Chen Xuan took this opportunity to find Gongsun Lue and whispered.
"Little wife, please do me a favor."
"You!" When Gongsun Lu'e heard that he was so bold, he was shocked and frightened, and quickly looked around.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan and Yang Guo ran away with Huang Rong on the way, so he had no friendship with Jin Lun Dharma King and others.
The two parties did not know each other, so Jinlun Dharma King naturally did not pay much attention to his situation. However, Xiaoxiangzi and others glanced at him from time to time, wanting to see something strange.
Chen Xuan turned his back to those people, not wanting them to see the shape of his mouth when he spoke, and then discussed with Gongsun Lu'e.
"The woman in white that your father wants to marry is my aunt, Xiao Longnu. You have to help me with this matter."
"Your aunt?" Gongsun Lu'e frowned slightly, unable to hide his surprise.
Chen Xuan said helplessly, "Now is not the time to explain this. I will tell you how to do this first, and you just do it."
Gongsun Lv'e was originally quite curious about what was going on between him and Xiao Longnu, but she didn't expect that Chen Xuan would even start to show off. She couldn't ask further questions, so she could only say "oh" helplessly.
Chen Xuan didn't take it seriously, he just leaned over and whispered a few words to her.
Gongsun Lv'e's bright eyes slowly widened, but finally she pushed him away and said angrily.
"No! How could I help you do such a thing? If my father finds out, I'm afraid he will kill me."
"Then let's escape from the valley together. Anyway, if you marry a chicken, you will follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, you will follow the dog. You have to follow me from now on."
"That won't work either." Gongsun Lv'e frowned slightly, looking very embarrassed.
Chen Xuan knew that she had to do this, so he could only continue to persuade.
"My little wife, it is absolutely the best thing for you to promise me this. Haven't you always disliked your father finding a stepmother? If you help me steal your stepmother away, wouldn't you be missing one thing?
Troublesome."
Gongsun Lu'e glanced at him angrily and said angrily.
"After all, you just saw her as beautiful, so you harbored evil intentions!"
Chen Xuan smiled and took Gongsun Lv'e's hand and said, "Good girl, it is natural for me to have a beautiful husband. You are beautiful and I like her. She is beautiful and I also like her. It is not normal."
Something?"
Hearing his shameless words, Gongsun Lu'e felt even more annoyed in her heart, but she had no reason to refute.
She had grown up in this Valley of Heartlessness. Although she had learned some martial arts and alchemy methods, no one had ever mentioned the matter of marriage to her.
So when she heard that Chen Xuan was talking nonsense, she didn't think of retorting at the first moment. Instead, she thought that men in the world were like this.
She was furious in her heart. She clearly felt she had been wronged, but she didn't know what was wrong. When she thought that her father, Gongsun Zhiye, and Chen Xuan seemed to like each other, she became even more angry.
She was so angry that she simply stamped her feet and said angrily.
"Okay, I'll just help you!"
"Good girl, you are so kind!"
When Chen Xuan heard that she finally relented, he almost jumped up with joy.
As long as she nods, this is basically half the battle, but how to arrange it specifically needs to be considered separately.
Just as the two of them were discussing the next plan in a low voice, a maid suddenly came out of the inner room and said loudly.
"The owner of the valley has an order to get married at an auspicious time at noon today, and the guests in the valley will celebrate."
Jin Lun Dharma King and others looked at each other and said curiously.
"Isn't the bride named Liu already vomiting blood? Why are you still in a hurry to hold a banquet?"
"Why else? Of course it's because of that kid."
While talking, several people looked at Chen Xuan in the corner.
Chen Xuan was also unambiguous and simply gave Gongsun Lue a few words.
"Anyway, let's arrange it this way for the time being. If any emergencies arise, I will handle it."
"……good."
Gongsun Lv'e actually didn't know what was going on, but when she saw Chen Xuan's promise, she could only nod in agreement.
The two of them discussed how to rescue Xiao Longnu, and the servants in the Heartless Valley also started to decorate the wedding scene.
This time Gongsun Zhi was going to marry Xiao Longnu. It had been arranged for a long time, so all the corresponding bouquets and gifts were prepared.
Jueqing Valley is originally a paradise hidden away from the world. Although the scenery is stunning, the various gold and silver decorations for weddings are not as good as those of wealthy families.
The people in the valley are simply cold and indifferent, so putting some bouquets on them can be regarded as adding to the atmosphere.
While these maids were decorating the auditorium, Chen Xuan followed Gongsun Lue and found the right opportunity to walk into the backyard.
The whereabouts of the two were naturally noticed by Jinlun Dharma King and others, but Jinlun Dharma King and others could also see that Chen Xuan wanted to cause trouble for Gongsun Zhi.
Gongsun Zhi didn't give him a good look before, but now he's going to ruin someone else's wedding. If he's caught, he'll be in big trouble.
Therefore, Jinlun Dharma King and others looked at each other, and their tacit understanding was not broken.
