Baihua Mansion is not comparable to Xiongshan County.
Li Xuan had been living in seclusion since he participated in the college examination. Later, he was invited from all directions to infiltrate a certain circle in Baihua Mansion in order to gain promotion.
Carrying people in a sedan chair is the way of officialdom.
If Li Xuan is alone and arrogant, no matter how talented he is, even if he passes the scientific examination, he will not be reused, and he will not be able to access the core secrets of the largest force at present.
Even if he reluctantly enters the inner circle, if he is still alone, no matter what he wants to do, there will be someone to restrain him; and if he makes a contribution, he will be regarded as a thorn in others' eyes, and then he will continue to have troubles, and even know that When it rises, it falls but when it does not rise, it falls.
On the contrary, if he has a background, then he can truly become a wealthy and idle person who can "make one point of merit, boast nine points of merit, and enjoy all the benefits", or even "make meritorious deeds even if he is not involved".
The "Way of Gou" is actually similar to the "Way of Seclusion".
The little ones live in the wild, the middle ones live in the city, and the big ones live in the court.
Li Xuan knew exactly what he wanted to do.
Nowadays, the world is in chaos and demons are gradually emerging. My father can support the Li family in the past, but he cannot support the Li family in the present and future.
A young demon can completely destroy the Li family, but what can dad do?
The future Li family needs him to be at the helm.
He doesn't care about power, but... he doesn't want to see his relatives die tragically or disappear, let alone die himself.
In addition, while he was cautious and frightened, he also had some expectations for Chaofan.
Who doesn’t want to live a few more years?
Since he is extraordinary, is it possible to increase his lifespan?
Maybe...immortality?
...
The wheels of the carriage turned, and they entered the inner city from the suburbs of the outer city next to Qinghe.
It was getting dark, and the streets of the inner city were bustling with activity.
Li Xuan lifted the curtain and took a brief look. He saw a place with bright lights and thick smoke, so he asked Wei Yao to drive his chariot over.
The restaurant was called Huixian Restaurant, and there were no empty seats in front of the building. There were many servants waiting for their master in sedan chairs, and there was a horse racing stable in the distance.
Wei Yao wanted to wait for Li Xuan in the car, but was pulled out of the car by Li Xuan. He then left the carriage at the horse shop and had his own waiter feed the horse.
The two of them entered the restaurant, and there was actually a familiar young master and his friends in the restaurant.
"Isn't this Li Xuan? We said goodbye yesterday, but today we are destined to meet again. Come on, come on... let's share a table." The young masters in Cao Wen's circle were extremely polite to Li Xuan. He also went to Taohuawu for a banquet yesterday. of.
Wei Yao saw this and said, "I'm going out for a walk."
With that said, he walked out.
Outside the building, various fragrances floated in the spring breeze, and bursts of white smoke floated out from restaurants and bars. There were groups of people in front of the stalls of meat shops, fish shops, and cake shops.
Few people visit the night market alone.
Li Xuan shouted to Wei Yao: "Come together."
The friend next to the noble young master frowned slightly. Apparently he had figured out Wei Yao's identity, so he was dissatisfied with Li Xuan for inviting his servants to dine with him.
But the noble young master remembered Wei Yao's toughness when he blocked Lin Jie Niu yesterday, so he leaned into his friend's ear and spoke a few words.
The friend's expression suddenly changed.
Beings who can slay demons are much more expensive than the status of a master, so naturally you can eat with them.
Seeing that Wei Yao was about to run out, Li Xuan suddenly pulled her hand.
Wei Yao felt the strong wind coming and turned her palms to avoid it.
But Li Xuan was a "serious catch".
Wei Yao did not avoid it.
The two held hands.
Wei Yao's delicate body felt like an electric current was flowing through her, and she was numb and like a frightened rabbit, trying to pull her hand out quickly.
However, Li Xuan held on very tightly, and even thrust his fingers into hers, interlocking them with hers. Then, with a tug, he pulled the young lady over, and then introduced the young master with a smile: "Bitch wife." , although his martial arts skills are not weak, he is quite shy."
The noble young master and his friend were stunned for a moment. They quickly stood up, saluted, and apologized repeatedly. After all...at first they thought Wei Yao was a maid or a guard, but now it seems that she is a concubine.
Wei Yao was also stunned, and was about to defend, but felt that this would lose the young master's face, so she bit her lip, lowered her head and said nothing.
Soon, the wine pots, glasses, and bowls for warming wine came up.
Plate of fruits and vegetables, and dishes to go with the wine arrived quickly.
Li Xuan and the two young masters had a pleasant conversation with each other.
After a while, large fish and meat in bowls of water and vegetables were also served.
Wei Yao was very reserved. During this period, she resisted not getting up, but the damn young master actually kept picking up food for her, pretending to be a "husband and wife".
She wanted to accept it all, but she was extremely afraid.
In her heart, the dark demon smiled slyly in the shadows, and the flame of desire was burning.
She glanced outside the building again.
Outside the building, there were groups of people walking together, including friends, couples, and a family of three.
The busy city is very big and the roads are also very wide, much wider than Xiongshan County, but such a wide road cannot accommodate a lonely person.
But with the young master, she is not alone.
Wei Yao slowly gave up her resistance and began to eat the food Li Xuanjia gave her obediently, thinking to herself: 'Just once...'
After a banquet, Li Xuan wanted to give him money, but the young master refused. Li Xuan didn't waste any time and just threw a piece of silver to the shopkeeper, then saluted the young master and left.
He held Wei Yao's hand.
Wei Yao's face was hot.
She was in a daze all the way until she arrived at the horse shop and got on the carriage, and then she woke up. Then she raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "Young Master shouldn't be like this. Let me stay by your side silently. This is the best choice." .”
Li Xuan said "Yeah".
Wei Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a strong sense of loss in her heart.
The carriage returned to Magnolia Hall.
At midnight, Li Xuan was lying on the bed and suddenly cried out in pain.
Wei Yao, who was sleeping next door, had been guarding him, so when he heard the noise, he hurriedly grabbed his gun and rushed to Li Xuan's door. He knocked on the door repeatedly and asked hurriedly: "Master, Master, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that no one opened the door, Wei Yao thought something had happened, so in a hurry, she slammed the door with all her strength.
The door was broken and she had to pay for it, but she couldn't care less.
Her mind raced as she thought what was wrong.
Could it be that those two people were secretly poisoned today, under her nose?
No...she didn't notice at all.
Just as she was thinking about it, she bumped into him.
As expected, the loud noise she made when she smashed through the door did not occur. Instead, it felt like she had hit the air.
She looked up and saw that the door had opened at some point.
The young master behind the door looked at her with a smile.
But she couldn't stop herself and rushed directly towards Li Xuan.
Li Xuan hugged the woman with both hands, took advantage of the momentum and jumped back, hooked his boots in mid-air, and the door closed with a "snap".
The two of them also landed on the bed together and rolled around twice.
Wei Yao struggled hastily, and Li Xuan continued to roll.
After rolling around, Li Xuan finally turned over and pressed her tightly, preventing her from moving.
Suddenly, an ambiguous atmosphere began to pervade.
Wei Yao's cheeks turned red, she turned her head and closed her eyes.
The night...began to become gentle.
...
...
The next day.
It's still dark.
Wei Yao woke up in Li Xuan's arms.
The inner armor she was wearing had long been peeled off and thrown under the bed, and her shoes were messily placed on the floor.
"I'm sorry." Wei Yao suddenly said softly.
Li Xuan opened his eyes, and in the dim light, the two looked at each other.
"I'm sorry." Wei Yao said again, "Last night...I shouldn't have been able to control myself.
A person like me who has been attacked by demonic blood is actually half a demon...
I...I still..."
Li Xuan suddenly interrupted her and said, "Do you think you are the only one who has practiced secret martial arts?"
"ah?"
Wei Yao's eyes widened. From such a close distance, she could even see her own look in Li Xuan's pupils.
Li Xuan jumped up and sat cross-legged on the bed, with the demonic blood of the "Misty Leopard" entering his body.
His body shape changed, his eyes showed a cold light, and he was surrounded by cloud texture. Pale mist flowed from the corners of his mouth like saliva, and an unimaginable ferocious aura emitted.
Wei Yao's little mouth also opened wide.
"this......"
Li Xuan clenched his fist and said: "This is my secret weapon. Isn't it ugly? So ugly that it doesn't even look like a human being?"
Wei Yao shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, no."
Li Xuan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Actually, I never dared to tell you, just because I was afraid that you would hate me and alienate me."
Wei Yao felt that the young master's words at this time seemed a bit familiar, but she didn't care to think about it, and as if to prove herself, she hugged the transformed Li Xuan tightly and said: "Never.
No matter what the young master becomes, I will never hate the young master! "
After a while, Li Xuan changed back to his original appearance.
Wei Yao no longer resisted.
Because in her heart, some kind of barrier between her and the young master seemed to have been broken.
But the next moment, she suddenly seemed to remember something.
Couldn't the cloud pattern on the young master's body be the pattern on the demon leopard's body before?
Is the young master probably more affected by the demon blood?
It was that day.
That's the day!
"Blame me..."
"If... at that time, I could have been stronger, maybe Young Master You wouldn't have been touched by the demon blood, and it wouldn't have become like this."
"It's all my fault...blame me! Blame me..."
Wei Yao's eyes slowly turned red, and she was nagging repeatedly, full of self-blame.
Li Xuan hugged her tightly, gently stroked her long hair, and said softly: "I don't blame you.
If it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago, so how can it be a blessing in disguise? "
"Blessing?" Wei Yao smiled bitterly. Is this secret weapon really a blessing?
Li Xuandao: "The world is changing, and demons are beginning to appear in the world. Only by mastering this powerful power can we protect the people we cherish."
"But..."
“No buts.
All things in the world depend on each other for blessings and misfortunes.
How can it be possible to gain great power without risk? "
Li Xuan said softly: "We are all new to secret martial arts.
Feeding the devil with desire and losing control is not what you or I want to see.
But there must be another way.
The young master will accompany you to search. "
Wei Yao was silent for a long time and finally showed a smile. She snuggled into the boy's arms and said softly: "Yes."
At this moment, it doesn't matter what the future holds.
She closed her eyes and enjoyed the pleasure.
The air was silent for a while...
Wei Yao asked in the boy's arms: "Master, where are we going during the day? Are we still going to Caobang to read?"
Li Xuan shook his head and said: "Today you and I will dress up a little and go out from the west gate of Fucheng.
I...want to see what happened to Lin Jie Niu after he ran to Luoshimen. "
Lin Jie Niu?
Falling stone gate?
Wei Yao was stunned for a moment, and after being quiet for a while, he suddenly asked: "Before, the county captain of Chiyue County was eaten by the demon leopard... Did the young master do it deliberately?"
Li Xuan smiled and nodded.
When Wei Yao got the affirmative answer, an indescribable warmth arose in her heart.
Because, that county captain... Li Xuan killed him entirely because of her.
...
...
In the afternoon, two men wearing cloaks and hats, whose gender could not be identified, stood on a barren mountain northwest of Baihua Mansion.
Neither of them held weapons, or the weapons were hidden in their cloaks.
Wei Yao asked: "Just wait like this?"
Li Xuan nodded and said: "You can see the surrounding roads from this place. If someone goes between Luoshimen and Baihua Mansion, we will definitely see them."
Before setting off, he did a little exploring and found out that Lin Jie Niu had not come back, so he came here and finally found a good location.
He didn't have much hope whether he could see anything.
Li Xuan waited for a while, but when he saw no one there, he said, "King of Ghosts, keep an eye on it for me while I go to practice next to you."
As for the word "Ghost King", it is half of the two words "Wei Yao".
After all, you are hiding outside, so you should use a false name. Otherwise, if someone hears your real name, will you keep silent?
"Yes, Young Master." Wei Yao responded.
Li Xuan ran to a hillside facing away from the road and began to practice the "Eternal Green Kung Fu".
It's nice to have someone you can trust to help you when you're out and about.
