Chapter 126 125. She remained silent and very aloof! (Please subscribe to the monthly ticket and give me a reward!)
Seeing that Liuli was almost getting angry because of his teasing.
Ning Mu didn't keep her in suspense any longer, but grabbed her other hand and placed it on her rosy face.
"This is extremely precious. Applying it on your face will have a refreshing and beautifying effect. You can apply it often. It will definitely remove the frost on your face. Even without makeup, you will still be beautiful and charming."
The corners of Liuli's eyes trembled.
Faced with the unusual smell, she had no choice but to close her eyes.
This evil creature is simply finding different ways to play tricks on me!
But for some reason, she still felt a little bit of anticipation in her heart and didn't feel the slightest resistance.
Could it be that this is the reason why I am so naturally charming?
As she changed her mind, she suddenly remembered a Taoist book that she had read in her spare time.
There have indeed been similar statements in it.
It is said in the classics: Ambergris is a precious thing and a great tonic for women!
Is it really useful?
A woman.
No matter your age or status.
A prostitute in the secular world, a nun who is not stained by the dust, a Taoist nun who is detached from the world, and an imperial daughter who sits high on the throne...
There is not much resistance to eternal youth.
While Liuli was applying ambergris on her face and waiting for it to dry.
A system prompt came into my mind.
[Hint: Congratulations to the host for completing Mission 1000. The host will be rewarded with 100 points of training points, 9 points of companion points, and points of Ning Mu's strategy points! ]
[Tip: The host's cultivation cannot be improved, but if the cultivation points continue to increase, the corresponding strength will be improved! ]
[Reminder: Congratulations to the host, Liuli, the owner of subsystem number two, has completed mission three, and has given the host mission rewards, gaining 100 cultivation points, and Liuli's loyalty value has increased by 3%! ]
[Tip: Under the guidance of the host, the second subsystem Liuli has exceeded the task, and has given the host additional task rewards. Liuli's loyalty value has increased by 5%! ]
"Huh~" Liuli suddenly felt relieved.
I wanted to just leave Ning Mu behind and leave.
But when she raised her eyes and glanced at Ning Mu who seemed to be smiling, her heart started beating fast for some reason and she stopped thinking about leaving.
It's still awkward to stay here though.
I don't even know if this kid will do anything else excessive to me.
But she was thinking in her heart, maybe while Liu Qingmei was away, she could develop a good relationship with this boy?
She herself didn't know why such a sudden idea came to her mind.
And Ning Mu at this moment.
I'm also thinking whether I should strike now while the iron is hot and issue another task.
After all, today's mission seemed ordinary, but because of his strong insertion, Liuli's loyalty value suddenly jumped up by 8%.
Now the loyalty value has reached 56%.
We are only 4% away from reaching the next stage, dependence.
According to the experience gained from Liu Qingmei, after reaching the dependence stage, not only will the relationship become closer, but even the tasks will no longer be dragged out, and people will even be more proactive.
While he was editing the task, he had not yet published it.
Suddenly.
A strange sound came from outside the reed marsh.
It seemed like someone was sneaking quickly on the reeds.
Ning Mu and Liuli in his arms were both stunned and looked at each other.
The old driver who was leisurely playing with the water was awakened at this moment and stood up suddenly.
Just at this time.
All I heard was a loud shout coming from a distance.
"Witch, don't leave!"
Judging from the voice, he is a very rough man.
Almost at the same time as the man's roar fell.
Suddenly.
I saw the reeds in front of me leaning to both sides.
Then, a woman was seen stepping out from the reeds with difficulty.
The woman was wearing a moon-white open-collared long dress dotted with various golden decorations. She looked either wealthy or noble.
But at this moment, the moon-white dress had already been stained with blood and was extremely dirty.
She has thick black hair.
But just like the clothes, there are also various gold ornaments and red ribbons as decoration.
These decorations do not look out of place on her, but rather complement each other.
At this moment, the woman's face was extremely pale, and she was covering her abdomen. A large amount of blood flowed out from between her fingers, dyeing the river water she was walking on with a hint of red.
The water in the reed marsh flows very slowly, and the blood stains are difficult to wash away in a short period of time.
This is also one of the reasons why the woman could not escape the pursuit.
"help me!"
"Master, my dear, please save my life. I will reward you handsomely one day!"
When she saw someone, a glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in the woman's anxious and helpless eyes. She stretched out her hand and asked for help to Liuli and Ning Mu who were riding on the old driver's back.
Ning Mu was startled and looked at Liuli.
Liuli also frowned slightly.
After just a moment's hesitation, she flicked her whisk.
Instantly.
A huge, tangible aura swept out from under the whisk like moonlight, wrapped the woman, and then moved towards the old driver's back.
As if he was finally relieved, the woman was seriously injured and seemed to be holding on to her last breath.
At this moment, it was as if she had seen her savior. She could no longer hold on to her injuries and her head tilted and she passed out.
Ning Mu immediately hugged him around the waist.
I saw a bloody wound on the left side of his flat abdomen, which looked like it was caused by sword energy.
In addition, there seemed to be some serious internal injuries.
The blood stains at the corners of his mouth had obviously been wiped frequently and had blurred half of his cheek.
at the same time.
I saw three men on the reed bush, stepping on the reeds and chasing after me as light as a swallow.
"roar~"
The old driver roared, and the gushing breath immediately made the three people look horrified and stopped in time.
The three men were dressed like Taoist priests and their weapons were swords.
The leader was a little older, with a square face, and a look of indignation.
He just stood up, looked at the old driver with some caution, and then looked at Liuli and Ning Mu who were holding their goal.
I can actually have such an exotic beast as a mount.
This couple is not simple.
"You two, this person is a demon witch who has been doing evil in our Chu State. The three of us are disciples of Xunyidao in Chu State. I am Ma Yuanfei, the senior brother of Xunyidao. Please give me some face and return her to me!"
While speaking, Ma Yuanfei also released his cultivation at the right time, staring at his two junior brothers eagerly.
Obviously, he wanted to shock Liuli and Ning Mu by introducing himself and his cultivation level.
Even Ning Mu could clearly feel that the strength of these three people was not low and was far stronger than himself.
Liuli could naturally feel it as well.
Just a young man who has just become a Grandmaster and two young Taoist priests in the Inner Perfection Realm.
"Humph, you little southern barbarian, you dare to run wild in my Qi territory?"
"Get lost, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Liuli snorted coldly and gently waved the whisk in her hand, instantly dispelling the oppressive momentum of Ma Yuanfei and others.
Originally, when she heard that she was a demon witch, Liuli was willing to help her.
But the other party was very self-important from the start, spoke arrogantly, and even tried to use his power to overwhelm others.
Besides, they are from the Taoist sect of the Southern Chu barbarians, so how could Liuli indulge them?
The three empires of Zhou, Qi and Chu were neighbors, and none of them was willing to submit to the other. There were open and covert struggles at the official level, and there was also mutual oppression among the people.
Anyone who has a little bit of the characteristics of this era and loves his own country will instinctively be disgusted by these foreigners who invade the country and commit evil.
Liuli's power made Ma Yuanfei's expression change slightly.
But they had been chasing the enemy all the way from the northern border of Chu to this place. The mountains were high and the roads were long, which consumed too much of their energy. Naturally, they were unwilling to retreat like this!
Ma Yuanfei looked gloomy, clasped his fists and looked at Liuli, questioning: "Master, both Buddhism and Taoism are committed to slaying demons and eliminating evil. Could it be that the Buddhism and Taoism of Qi State have now fallen to the point of associating with demons and evil spirits?"
Hearing this, Liuli was immediately dissatisfied, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Even though she was applying ambergris on her face at this moment, it still couldn't conceal her intimidating aura!
"Good! It is not your turn to interfere in the affairs of my Buddhism and Taoism. Regardless of whether this person is good or evil, I, the Divine Nun Ciyun, will protect him!"
"If you want to take her away, ask the Taoist master Han Yushan to come in person. He doesn't even dare to be arrogant in front of this poor nun. How dare you, a little idiot, discuss the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism in front of me? Ridiculous!"
As soon as the words fell, Liuli flicked the whisk in her hand.
Instantly.
Then Ma Yuanfei and the other two fell headfirst and fell directly into the reed marsh.
scare!
Ma Yuanfei and the others looked panicked. After climbing out of the water, they didn't care about their embarrassment and immediately bowed to Liuli with their fists clasped.
"I didn't expect it to be the Divine Nun Ciyun. We are sorry to bother you. Bye!"
There was a flash of unwillingness in the eyes of Ma Yuanfei and the other two, but when they heard the name of Ciyun Shen Ni, they could only stop there.
What they feared was naturally not the Divine Nun Ciyun.
The strength of Taoist Master Han Yushan is not much different from that of the Divine Nun Ciyun.
But the Taoist master is already looking for the strongest fighting force.
And behind the Divine Nun Ciyun, there is an old monster who has lived for eight hundred years!
Such a person can almost be said to be a wealthy family that is above the secular world. Even the royal families of various countries have to please him and dare not offend him easily.
Why do they?
Ma Yuanfei and the other two left in shame.
"From the look of this woman, I don't think she's someone who would do evil, but you can't tell a person's true heart from his appearance. Maybe she's really a member of the Demon Cult. Since we've already saved her, at least let her live. We can make other plans for the rest of the future!"
Liuli glanced at the woman who was unconscious in Ning Mu's arms and frowned slightly.
As soon as she finished speaking, she pointed her sword and pressed repeatedly on several major acupuncture points on the woman's body.
soon.
The woman's wound no longer oozed blood.
Ning Mu nodded, and immediately ordered the driver to return.
Suddenly a wounded person appeared, and was even lying unconscious in front of him. Ning Mu no longer had the heart to flirt with Liuli.
After taking back the edited task, the old driver drove the three people straight back to the house.
Two days passed.
During these two days, Chunzhi and others took care of the injured woman.
Ning Mu was not idle either.
I gave Liuli a new task, but she hasn't completed it yet.
Apart from occasionally flirting with Liuli, he was almost always busy dealing with matters targeting He Daqian.
With his secret "help", He Daqian purchased grain very quickly.
In just these few days, almost half of the grain in the hands of foreign grain merchants has been taken away.
Now the Tan family’s warehouse is full of food.
Even many victims began to set their sights on the Tan family warehouse.
Too much.
Not only was the food overflowing from the warehouse, but there was only an aisle left outside the warehouse, and tarpaulin was used to cover the food that had nowhere to go.
On this day, Ning Mu just woke up.
Into Ning Xiaoxiu's mouth, all that had been accumulated over the night was released.
Chunzhi's voice was heard outside the door.
"Master, Master, the woman you brought back has woken up!"
Ok?
Ning Mu was stunned, then he immediately stood up, put on his clothes and walked out.
As for Ning Xiaoxiu, who had a full meal, she was burping on the spot.
In the outer courtyard room.
Because of the increase in the number of people, Old Man Zhang and servants including Ye Xiaoqiu all moved next door.
There is no other man in this yard except Ning Mu.
for safety.
Naturally, the rescued woman was also placed in this outer courtyard.
When Ning Mu arrived.
Besides Xia Chan, the only person in the room was a woman lying on the couch with a pale face.
"Master."
Xia Chan greeted hurriedly.
"She hasn't said anything the whole time and is so cold." Xia Chan came over and complained in a low voice.
Ning Mu walked in and looked at the woman on the couch.
And at this moment, the woman was also looking at him.
"It was you who saved me?" Yang Yanqiu asked with some curiosity in his eyes.
Ning Mu nodded and said, "How do you feel, lady?"
"How long have I been in a coma?"
"Two days."
"Two days..." Yang Yanqiu's eyes changed slightly, and then he smiled, looked at Ning Mu, and said, "Thank you for saving my life, young master!"
"Are you from the Demonic Cult?" Ning Mu hesitated for a moment and then went straight to the point.
I'm not worried that she would resist.
Liuli is outside the door at this moment.
Yang Yanqiu was stunned for a moment, looking around the furnishings in the room, secretly guessing the identity of the young man, and nodded without hesitation.
"That's right, my name is Yang Yanqiu, and I'm from the Sun Moon Divine Sect."
Quite frank.
Ning Mu didn't react before hearing this, but Chun Zhi and Xia Chan on the side suddenly changed their expressions and immediately stood in front of Ning Mu.
"Young Master, it's the Sun and Moon Sect, the evil sect that seriously injured the owner of the manor!" Xia Chan reminded in time, staring at Yang Yanqiu with a wary look on his face.
There isn't much empathy or hatred.
After all, they had never been maids of the Ye family, but maids that Liu Qingmei brought from the Liu family.
But now, Ning Mu just got a bargain.
They were just worried that this evil witch from the cult would harm their young master.
Ning Mu reacted, with a strange look in his eyes.
This is fine.
Saved a woman from the Sun and Moon Sect?
If Liu Qingmei knew about this, would she kill this woman directly?
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows.
Hearing Yang Yanqiu's words, Liuli who was outside the door also walked in, staring at the other person with a deep look that revealed a bit of coldness.
The moment Liuli came in, Yang Yanqiu's whole body tensed up and his eyes were filled with strong vigilance.
It was as if he had encountered a natural enemy.
It's a very vague feeling.
But she just felt that this woman dressed as a nun posed a great threat to her.
And she is very strong, ridiculously strong!
I’m afraid it’s the realm of a true person!
After all, he was a master of the Zuozhao realm, but in front of her aura, he was oppressed and could not move!
"My friend, be careful!"
Liuli didn't say anything, but just stared at Yang Yanqiu and said something to Ning Mu.
She has a very hateful nature.
Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all living beings, and that one can become a Buddha instantly by putting down the butcher knife. Those who practice Buddhism have a compassion far beyond that of ordinary people.
But Liuli seemed to be an accident.
Last time, she slaughtered all the members of the Blood Lotus Sect of the Zhou Kingdom because of a disagreement. This was enough to show that she had no mercy or compassion for those who practiced the evil way.
Ning Mu nodded, patted Xia Chan and Chun Zhi's shoulders gently, and signaled them to leave.
Then, he looked at Yang Yanqiu and said, "Thank you for your honesty, but since you are a member of the Demon Sect, you must have done many evil things. Now that you have woken up, please do as you please. If we meet again in the martial arts world, we may be enemies."
Hearing this, Yang Yanqiu smiled miserably.
She glanced at Liuli and saw that Liuli didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. Instead, she followed the young man's lead, which made her feel a little relieved.
She was unwilling to hide her identity from her savior.
Immediately, she said to Ning Mu: "Young Master, the manor owner you mentioned must be Ye Bufan, the owner of Cangjian Mountain Manor!"
"Recently, it seems that this is the only incident that happened. Yin Hongling, the Saint of our Divine Religion, fought with Ye Bufan, and both sides suffered injuries."
"To be honest, I went to the land of Nanchu alone to look for medicinal herbs for Saint Yin Hongling. In that battle, our Saint was also seriously injured and has not recovered yet."
"As for the distinction between good and evil... I won't comment much, but since I dare to ask you for help, I dare to swear to heaven that, except for the occasional fights or conflicts with righteous people when defending myself, I have never taken the initiative to do anything that harms the world!"
As he spoke, Yang Yanqiu raised three fingers and swore an oath to the sky.
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows.
This woman doesn't want to leave?
He turned his head and looked at Liuli.
Liuli shrugged, turned around expressionlessly, and walked out of the room.
"Don't look at me, make your own decision, little friend."
At the same time, a message was sent back.
Ning Mu was worried that Liuli hated the people of the Demon Cult to the core, and if he left Yang Yanqiu behind, it might make her unhappy.
It's not necessary.
No matter whether what Yang Yanqiu said is true or not, it doesn’t matter.
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows, looked at Yang Yanqiu, and said, "Your Excellency, please leave after you recover from your injuries. I am not a judge. Whether you have done anything against the will of heaven or earth does not have much impact on me. I only have one thing to say. It is fine for you to stay here to recover from your injuries, but it is better for you to behave yourself."
"Next door are the disciples of Hidden Sword. If they knew you were here, they would definitely avenge their master."
After Ning Mu finished speaking, he nodded and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
At this time.
Yang Yanqiu suddenly called out to him.
"what happened?"
Ning Mu turned around.
At this time.
Yang Yanqiu took out an iron plate, looked at it for a moment, then raised her head and threw it to Ning Mu, saying, "Thank you for saving my life, this is the holy order of my sect. With this order, you can mobilize the branches of my sect. I know that you are a righteous man and disdain this, but this is the most precious thing I have right now!"
"Please accept it, sir!"
There was gratitude in Yang Yanqiu's eyes.
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, weighed the inverted triangle-shaped token in his hand, took it directly, and then nodded to Yang Yanqiu.
This woman is a little strange.
Being able to produce the holy order of the Sun and Moon Sect, one can imagine that his status and position in the sect must be extraordinary.
The power of the holy order to mobilize the branch is something that not everyone can possess!
But she gave it to herself for free as a thank you gift.
Although he holds such a respected position in the Demon Sect, he claims that he has never done anything against the law.
This is a bit nonsense.
But looking at her focused and serious expression, it seems that she is not pretending!
"Take good care of your injuries. I have something else to do and I'm leaving first."
Ning Mu waved his hand and left.
After arriving at the inner courtyard, he turned around and looked at Chunzhi and Xiachan, and reminded them: "Don't reveal the identity of that woman to the outside world. We just need to know it among ourselves. In addition, let her leave here when she is almost able to get out of bed."
Xia Chan nodded and said, "You understand, young master. I don't think she really looks like a member of the demon sect. Instead, she has a noble and elegant demeanor."
Chun Zhi also nodded and said in agreement, "Yes, Master. Aren't the people of the Demon Cult all as arrogant as Xiao Xiu, thinking they are the best in the world? There is no such a humble and polite woman like her, who also has such a gentle and elegant temperament."
"Also, what should I do if the young lady finds out?"
Chunzhi and Xiachan both looked at Ning Mu.
Ning Mu raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
But he felt that what Chunzhi Xiachan said made sense.
This Yang Yanqiu is a bit surprising.
But after all, he was just a passer-by, and he was too lazy to pay any more attention to him.
As for this holy order, you can keep it. Who knows, it may be useful someday.
He doesn't have the "cleanliness obsession" of those upright people.
Why should you reject something that is beneficial to you?
"It's nothing. Every wrong has its perpetrator. She should be working for Yin Hongling. If Master really wants to kill her, then just kill her."
Ning Mu shrugged.
To him, Liu Qingmei is naturally more important!
finish breakfast.
Ning Mu took a rest, locked Ning Xiaoxiu back into the dungeon, and then prepared to go out and visit the Jin family.
just.
As soon as he went out, he saw a man riding a flying horse coming at a high speed. The clothes he was wearing were the disciples' uniform of Cangjian Villa.
He frowned.
Could something have happened again!
Before I knew it, the person who brought the news was already approaching.
"Master, the Second Madam sent a message!"
The messenger handed the letter to Ning Mu.
"Well, let's go rest."
Ning Mu nodded, took the letter and opened it.
The letter from Tong Yuyue?
Why didn’t Liu Qingmei send the message to me?
He frowned and took out the letter, which had only a short line of words on it.
After browsing through it, Ning Mu frowned.
First there was anger.
Immediately, he was delighted again!
It's time to untie the bond that has bound Liu Qingmei for so long!
"Master Lieyang is putting pressure on you. The elders are helping Ye Xiumei. Return quickly!"
The previous chapter was blocked and I am applying for it to be unblocked. The editor is on holiday for May Day. If you haven’t read it yet, please read it again when it is released in a few days!
