good news?
I'm afraid your wife will be sad for a long time when she hears this...
But being able to stay away from that kind of gambling dog is good news for her.
Chu Ming sighed softly, feeling an inexplicable sadness in his heart, and then led Xiaohong and the carriage convoy into the mansion, letting her rest for a while in the side room, while he went to the alchemy room to get her the elixirs she needed to help sell.
"Here, that's it."
Chu Ming walked in within a moment of burning the incense. With a wave of his right hand, a large number of jade bottles covered the entire table. Xiao Hong was so scared that she quickly stood up with tea in hand, her face full of shock.
"So many? Mr. Chu, didn't you say there are only twenty "Qi Condensing Spirit Pills" and "Ice Soul Pills"? "
"yes."
Chu Ming casually picked up the jade bottle and played with it in the palm of his hand, with a playful curve at the corner of his mouth.
"But I didn't say I would only give you those two pills."
"In addition to the "Qi Ning Ling Pill" and "Ice Soul Pill", here are also the "Zhuan Yan Pill" and "Gu Longevity Pill" that I prepared for your wife. "
"!?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaohong's expression suddenly became excited at a speed visible to the naked eye. She was about to say something grateful, but after thinking about it, she showed a trace of confusion.
"But Mr. Chu, my wife only needs one "Yanzhudan" and "Shouyoudan" each. Are you preparing too much? "
"The rest is for you to sell."
Chu Ming smiled slightly, poured out the "Zhu Yan Dan" from the jade bottle, ground it into powder with his hands, and then sprinkled it on his face.
In an instant, his originally delicate face was instantly radiant, and his fair and tender skin was like that of a young girl, as if it could drip water with just a pinch.
"..."
Looking at Xiaohong's surprised look with her mouth wide open, Chu Ming pinched his cheek lightly and said.
"This "Yanzhu Dan" can not only be taken to stimulate the effect of the medicine, but also sprinkled on the face. "
"So you can grind it into powder and add it to lipstick or thin powder. This will not be easy to see and make your products more competitive."
"Mr. Chu, thank you so much!"
Xiaohong is not someone who doesn't understand anything. After following Mrs. Xu for so many years, she naturally understands that Chu Ming's brief words can definitely bring great benefits to the Xu family!
It may not even be limited to northern cities. With the magical effect of "Zhuyan Dan", it will not be difficult to spread the industry to other cities!
"Mr. Chu, I..."
Xiaohong was so moved that she couldn't say anything for a moment, and pretended to kneel down, but was lifted up by Chu Ming with a chuckle.
"Don't kneel down all the time. I'll introduce another elixir to you. It won't be too late for you to kneel down after hearing its effects."
"?"
Under Xiao Hong's confused gaze, Chu Ming picked up the jade bottle on the table and poured out a dark red pill.
Different from the smooth and rounded surface of other elixirs, the surface of this elixir is covered with ferocious blood vessels and branches out into countless small branches. The slightly bulging dynamic appearance seems to be like a living thing, and the three elixir lines are flashing with a bite in turn. Scarlet light.
The moment it was poured out into the palm of Chu Ming's hand, a strong and insoluble blood rushed towards his face, making Xiao Hong cover her mouth and nose tightly, frowning and quickly retreating, her eyes filled with uncertainty.
"Mr. Chu, what kind of elixir is this?"
"Life-Eating Pill"
Chu Ming smiled slightly and introduced its effectiveness with a leisurely expression.
"Did you also see the "Gushou Dan" I gave you just now? Don't you think it looks a lot like this "Life-Eating Pill"? "
“The elixir’s working principle is very simple, it solidifies and permanently converts the spiritual power in the Dantian into life span. "
"Doesn't this sound good? But the side effect it brings is that your cultivation will never be able to break through to the next level, and there is even a risk of your Dantian shrinking!"
"And I was thinking, can the effectiveness principle of "Gushou Dan" be reversed? "
"in turn?"
Xiaohong was stunned at first, then her eyes widened and her pupils shrank suddenly, she covered her mouth with her hands and was unable to say anything in horror.
"Yes, I reversed the principle of effectiveness of the "Guarding Life Pill" and added some monster blood essence and blood to increase its success rate, turning it into a "Life-Eating Pill." "
Chu Ming placed the "Life-Eating Pill" in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, with a flash of pride in his eyes.
"The "Life-Eating Pill" can increase one's cultivation by reducing one's lifespan. "
"Such a three-line "Life-devouring Pill" is estimated to allow a person below the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm to be directly promoted to the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm, but the price to be paid will be less than half a hundred years old. "
Chu Ming put the "Life-Eating Pill" back into the jade bottle, took Xiao Hong's trembling right hand and put it in his palm with a smile.
"I believe that with your wife's intelligence, she naturally knows how to use these "life-eating pills" to maximize the benefits. "
"This way, even if I have to travel far away, your Xu family will not be afraid of the Wang family harassing you through violent means."
"Mr. Chu, this..."
Xiaohong suddenly came to her senses, put away the jade bottle in a panic, came to Chu Ming's side and whispered.
"Isn't this kind of elixir forbidden to be refined by the Tianyan Sect?"
"Explicitly prohibited?"
Chu Ming smiled gently, but there was a hint of disdain in Xiaohong's eyes.
"Don't worry, I've already informed the superiors about this matter, and they will turn a blind eye."
"?"
Xiao Hong froze on the spot, looking at Chu Ming's handsome face without saying a word for a long time, her heart beating wildly.
What does Mr. Chu mean by this?
Isn't he just the deacon of Mingshengdan Temple? Why does it sound like he has an unusually high status in the Holy Pill Palace?
"Of course you need to be careful when using this "Life-Eating Pill". "
Chu Ming patted Xiao Hong's shoulder and spoke softly, with a hint of threat and warning in his cold words.
"Remember not to use it too much, and don't reveal these things to anyone."
"I believe that Mrs. Xu and you are both smart people and naturally know the pros and cons."
"yes."
Xiaohong hurriedly lowered her head in fear and agreed, her body trembling slightly and she didn't dare to say another word.
Seeing this, Chu Ming patted her shoulder again and waved before leaving the side room.
"You can leave with these jade bottles and the convoy, I won't give them away."
"..."
Xiaohong looked at the departing figure, her blank eyes suddenly became extremely firm.
She first put the jade bottle into the carriage and asked the people below to leave first. Then she quietly came to the door of Chu Ming's wing and knocked.
"Mr. Chu, I have one more thing to ask of you."
"Come in, the door is open."
Chu Ming seemed to have expected that Xiaohong would come to find him. He sat at the table and stared at her as she entered the door.
"Didn't I ask you to leave?"
"I still have some questions that I would like to ask Mr. Chu for help."
Xiaohong's face was troubled for a long time, and finally she asked softly with an uneasy mood.
"Mr. Chu, what do you think of my wife?"
"Well...she is a sensible, polite, considerate, and intelligent woman."
"Then you don't have any ideas?"
Xiaohong didn't speak clearly. She bit her mouth and tightly grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands. She fell into silence with an awkward look on her face, but the meaning was self-evident.
Seeing this, Chu Ming picked up the tea cup and took a sip and couldn't help but sigh again.
Knew it!
Xu Wanshu sent her personal maid here not to give gifts, nor to discuss business and cooperation.
Her most fundamental purpose is me!
To put it simply, she just wants me to take her in!
"What kind of thing is this? It's the first time I see someone come to my door. Is this a benefit for a handsome guy?"
After Chu Ming murmured something softly, he stared at Xiaohong's eyes full of pleading and said softly.
"Let me tell you the truth. Your wife is indeed beautiful, plump, gentle and sensible. She is one of the best intellectual beauties. I don't deny this."
"But you also know that I, Chu Ming, have always been aboveboard in my work, and it is impossible for me to do this kind of thing of taking someone else's wife away."
"If you are willing, Mr. Chu, my wife will make peace with the head of the family immediately!"
"Then your wife will become a divorcee..."
Chu Ming shook his head and sighed softly, tapping his fingers on the table.
"Do you think a young man like me, who has never been engaged, will accept a divorced wife?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Xiaohong was immediately speechless, and her tense body collapsed like a deflated ball.
yes!
Let alone a young man without a marriage contract, even a man with a family would not take a divorced woman as a concubine!
"but."
Just when Xiaohong was about to leave like a zombie, Chu Ming's words brought her soul back, and she blinked slightly with doubt on her face.
"I have a solution that's not quite a solution."
Chu Ming coughed lightly and rubbed his sore eyebrows with a troubled expression. His words were full of entanglement and hesitation.
"How should I put it... Actually the solution is very simple, that is, your wife does not need to reconcile, just maintain the status quo."
"And I maintain such a delicate relationship with her in private... Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"Alas! I know that such a thing is a huge shock to Mrs. Xu. I am actually conflicted in my heart, but I have no choice. This is the only thing I can accept..."
"OK!"
Before Chu Ming could recover from his pretentious sigh, Xiao Hong immediately agreed without hesitation, which made him look slightly stunned. He took a sip of tea and said doubtfully.
"You know what I mean?"
"Isn't it just to be exposed? I understand, I understand!"
"puff--!"
Chu Ming squirted out a sip of tea and coughed violently a few times. His cheeks twitched slightly and he stared at the excited Xiao Hong for a long time.
You girl, do you know what "being exposed to the light" means? Just laugh!
You're not that old, but you understand a lot, and you don't feel angry. You're even a little excited?
If your wife knew you were insulting her like this, I'm afraid...
"My wife has exactly what she wants."
"???"
This time it was Chu Ming's turn to be stunned. His eyes widened for a while before he came back to his senses, and his tone became sharper.
"That's what you mean? What do you mean?"
"Just exposed to the light."
Xiao Hong breathed a long sigh of relief and then explained with a smile.
"Actually, my wife has also considered your difficulties, Mr. Chu. It is really difficult for you to accept her."
"So Madam, she told me before she asked me to come here. If Mr. Chu is willing, she is willing to maintain such a 'cooperative' relationship. You don't need to give her any status. You just need to remember her as a person in your spare time. , madam, she feels satisfied."
"Be good..."
Chu Ming patted his head, and for the first time, he felt that his outlook on life had been greatly impacted.
It turns out that in such a conservative and staid world of immortality, there are still such open-minded people?
Are you willing to maintain a relationship that exposes you?
Then how pitiful his husband is... No, why should I pity a gambling dog who is addicted to gambling?
I am not doing something bad, but I am saving people!
"Since your wife has such an idea, I can only reluctantly accept it."
Chu Ming coughed a few times to cover up his inner embarrassment, and then said calmly.
"Then you go back quickly and tell your wife about this. I won't keep you here. If you have anything else, wait until I come back to talk about it."
"that……"
Xiao Hong twisted her body and her pretty face turned red. She stood there blankly and seemed to have no intention of leaving. This made Chu Ming a little confused.
"What? Is there anything else?"
"Well... Madam specially told me that if Mr. Chu is willing to continue to maintain this relationship, she has a small request."
After saying that, Xiao Hong came to Chu Ming's side, leaned over and whispered shyly in his ear.
"Madam said that she has been tortured by the master of the family during this period, and has been hurt and lonely for a long time. She would like to invite you to talk tonight to relieve her pain of lovesickness."
"Madam, she also emphasized that the master of the house will still go to the gambling house tonight, so you don't have to worry, and she also specially brought something to stimulate interest from the Wonderful Girl's House..."
?
Something to interest you?
Under Chu Ming's puzzled and puzzled eyes, Xiao Hong slowly took out an item that was worthy of heaven and earth from his pocket.
No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as one...
"!?"
Chu Ming stood up suddenly and looked around. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the door was closed and no one was around. He stared at Xiao Hong's blushing face and said with embarrassment.
"Uh...is this what your wife calls a fun thing?"
"Well, because my wife felt that Mr. Chu, because you are young and simple in character, you should not understand what she meant by something to arouse interest, so she asked me to bring it to you..."
"..."
Chu Ming touched the bridge of his nose and laughed twice, his face turned red at the hypocritical words.
I don't know what this thing is?
I understand so well!
Rather, I wonder why such a thing would appear in a world of cultivators!
I have often heard that couples in ancient times had many more ways to stimulate interest than in modern times, and some of them have even been lost for a long time.
It seems that this is quite right!
"So Mr. Chu, can you come tonight..."
Xiao Hong put the things away as she spoke, but was interrupted by Chu Ming's voice the next second.
"Wait! Can you show me that thing?"
"..."
Xiaohong was stunned for a moment, then handed the thing to Chu Ming with a pretty face and a slight blush.
Sure enough, just as the lady said, although Mr. Chu looks suave, his nature is extremely simple, and he is actually curious about this thing!
However, what Xiao Hong didn't notice was that Chu Ming's eyes were not full of curiosity, but a look of deep astonishment.
【Do you want to simulate "Massage*"? 】
"..."
Can he simulate this kind of thing?
I want to see what kind of tricks you can come up with!
After Chu Ming hummed out of curiosity, the light blue light curtain suddenly appeared again in front of him.
[After you were made by Miaonvfang, Xu Wanshu took you home immediately, and you shyly tried it out that day. 】
[Because this was your first job, you worked extra hard, causing Xu Wanshu to fall into a coma and not wake up until the next morning. 】
[From then on, she couldn't put it down for you, and even took you with her when she went out, and used it from time to time. 】
[Suddenly one day, Xu Wanshu was attacked by bandits while leading a caravan at the foot of a certain peak, and was eventually rescued by Chu Ming. 】
[Xu Wanshu looked at Chu Ming's delicate face, her heart that had been silent for a long time suddenly started to ripple, and she blushed for the first time. 】
[So she gratefully took Chu Ming home and entertained him with a sumptuous dinner. You were also happy for the host and broke away from work in great excitement. 】
[Xu Wanshu stood up and collapsed in Chu Ming's arms. She looked at you at the same time as him, and then looked at each other. In the end, in order to prevent your secret from being vented and exposed, she could only slowly kneel down in front of Chu Ming with a shy face, and You also resume working...]
[Eventually, someone replaces you, you lose your job, and the simulation ends. 】
[The current simulated item "Massage*" has an intimacy level of 99 with Xu Wanshu. You can choose the following rewards: ]
"I choose reward one"
As Chu Ming muttered to himself, a dazzling green light suddenly appeared on the light blue light curtain in front of him.
[Currently available entries:]
["Thousand-Change Thunder (Green)": Allows the item to change according to the host's wishes and gain a tiny paralysis power of thunder attribute. 】
"..."
it is as expected!
Chu Ming's cheeks twitched slightly, but the rich expression in his eyes during this period seemed like an ignorant boy suddenly opening the door to a new world, making her lower her eyelids in shame and her cheeks were extremely hot.
Master Chu, he actually stared at this kind of thing for such a long time!
It was all the madam’s bad idea that led him to evil!
No matter how unscrupulous you are, you can't seduce her with such a private thing in the boudoir!
"Ahem, uh...sorry, I was a little curious for a while and have been looking at it for a long time."
After Chu Ming came back to his senses, he coughed a few times and quickly returned the things to Xiao Hong. He scratched his cheeks and tried to find some topics to talk about to break the awkward atmosphere between the two.
But just as he was about to say something, Xiaohong covered his face and ran away in a hurry, leaving him standing there with a look of astonishment on his face.
"I feel like things have become more subtle..."
Chu Ming touched the bridge of his nose and smiled helplessly, feeling a little hot in his heart.
Can the Cao thief still act like this?
What a great experience!
Sure enough, for young wives, the most attractive thing is not their plump figures and skilled skills, but their identity as "wife"!
