Chapter 209
Bei Qiao raised an eyebrow but said nothing. While the twins weren't dressed particularly ostentatiously, their clothing was made of top-quality fabric and fitted them perfectly, clearly the children of a wealthy family. Not to mention the two maids standing behind them. Their sharp eyes revealed that they were skilled martial artists, having just been observing him cautiously.
Seeing that Bei Qiao didn't make a fuss, the twins breathed a sigh of relief. Although they didn't know Bei Qiao's identity, his expressionless face was somewhat similar to their teacher's. The twins, who had skipped classes twice before, couldn't help but feel intimidated by him.
The twins, a boy and a girl, weren't from Zhuyue City. They'd come here to visit their great-aunt, Lady Hu, the beautiful woman seated in the flower chariot below. Lady Hu was much older than them, and had recently embarked on the immortal path. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, her current appearance would remain for many years.
As for the twins themselves, they haven't yet decided whether to be brother or sister, as their younger sister, born a few minutes later, is unwilling to accept the role of older sister. Their parents have set a deadline of 19 years to determine who is more capable, but for now, they are fully committed to the competition.
Comforting herself that this was a stranger and not the teacher, Liu Jiuyue, who had temporarily become the elder sister today because of a narrow victory, was the first to look downstairs. Her younger brother Liu Keji glanced at the little maid behind him and signaled her to set up the tea and snacks.
The little maidservant in green stood beside Liu Jiuyue with a slightly serious expression; the little maidservant in blue, who had received the order, lowered her head to serve tea and snacks, and when she stood up, she glanced at Bei Qiao again: It's quite pretty.
"I'm sorry, sir, please look..." The waiter walked over bravely, looked at Bei Qiao and then at the twins, feeling that he couldn't afford to offend either of them.
"It's okay, you can go down." Bei Qiao waved his hand while holding the fan: But after such an incident, I am no longer in the mood to order.
This fan, oh... The two little maids noticed the fan in Bei Qiao's hand and their vigilance subsided a little.
"I want to marry her!" The excitement downstairs was still going on. The man who was pushed out put on an attitude of deep love and no regrets. If it weren't for his slightly wandering eyes, this performance could be said to be very good.
"Then you can be a gangster! From now on, the land and house in our family have nothing to do with you!" The person who claimed to be the man's mother shook her body, and the fat on her face trembled under the triangle scarf.
Bei Qiao: That’s right. Only those who own houses and land are common people. Those who don’t have houses and land are hooligans.
The two men argued furiously in the middle of the road, and the indigenous passersby on the side of the road were also watching with great amusement. The twins watched for a while, then felt that there was nothing new and began to review their lesson from yesterday: You work hard, and I work hard too, for no other reason than to compete for the position of boss.
The most beautiful lady naturally would not wait there for the two to finish their quarrel. She heard a regular knocking sound coming from the flower sedan chair. The next second, the maids lifted the flower sedan chair into the air and flew over the heads of the two men.
The flower chariot began to move, and the man's "mother" also began to move. He ripped off his triangular scarf, revealing a head of tangled braids and a prominent Adam's apple. He stepped forward with his left foot and soared into the air. With his right hand, he pulled a stack of talismans from his bosom and tossed it vigorously. A blanket of talisman paper enveloped the flower chariot, and one sheet of talisman paper, unfortunately, landed on the cheek of one of the maids.
The maid with a cold expression and a crazy heart said: I want to scream, but I have to pay attention to my status. If I lose my status, my salary will be deducted.
"Someone's here to cause trouble again." Liu Jiuyue heard the people downstairs exclaiming and cheering, and stretched her neck to take a look outside: "The title of the most beautiful woman is really dangerous."
"He doesn't look like he's looking for trouble with a beautiful woman, but more like he's trying to catch a demon." Liu Keji put down his book and looked over: "There's a lot of evil energy coming from this person."
"There is hair. I thought he was bald under the triangular scarf." Liu Jiuyue ignored her brother. Seeing the strong but light-footed man scattering talisman papers everywhere, she quickly protected the teacup in her hand, fearing that some careless talisman papers would fall into the cup.
The man's mother turned into an evil-looking man with a broken braid on the spot. This scene shocked some of the indigenous passers-by. Some timid passers-by hugged their heads and squeezed out of the crowd, fearing that they would be accidentally injured.
Even though the man didn't draw his weapon, many of the natives dared to continue watching. Some even pointed at the man and shouted that they were right; his figure didn't look like a woman at all. The others agreed, but turned around and quietly rolled their eyes: "As if everyone knew it!"
"How dare you!" The flower chariot landed safely amidst a hail of talisman paper. A bell rang from within, and the maid, whose face was covered in talisman paper, was the first to attack. She drew her unsharpened machete and slashed at the man. The man scoffed, his expression dismissive, and dodged with a simple twist. "As you didn't know your master was a fox demon, I'll forgive you this offense."
The maid, Yu'er, laughed in anger, forgetting even to maintain her dignity. She frowned and spat at the man, "Pah! There are so many bastards who want to get close to my wife, but your excuse is the most cliché! You must have read too many vixen stories!" Vixen! Ha! If she were to be put across the sea, she would become a witch, right? Old Deng's old tricks of robbing people for money and killing them, killing them for their wealth and then throwing dirty water on them. Shameless as hell!
"Tsk, you're just a mortal, ordinary person." The man, unwilling to tangle with the maid, quickly bypassed her and charged towards the flower chariot. Another jingle of bells echoed, and a pink hammer was hurled from the flower chariot. With a whistling sound, it struck the man squarely in the chest, forcing him back to absorb the force. Despite his quick reaction, the hammer still caused him to spit out several mouthfuls of blood.
"What a foolish demon hunter! After a few sips of yellow wine, you're arresting people indiscriminately on the street. Aren't you afraid that I'll report you to the authorities and charge you with abuse of power?" The curtain of the flower sedan chair was lifted by a hand. Lady Hu, wearing a fox fur coat draped over her shoulders, walked out slowly, supported by the other maids. She glanced at the man with an elegant yet imposing look. Behind her, a fox tail swayed with her movements. It was the tail that came with the fur coat, and its texture was so fine that it made people want to touch it.
Did that tail seem to move on its own just now? Or was I mistaken? Bei Qiao leaned forward to look down. This most beautiful woman lived up to her title. She was already stunning when half-hidden, and even more stunning when her true form was revealed. If the nine-tailed fox could transform into a human, she would probably look like this.
"You're misleading people with your lies!" The man turned his gaze to the side, put his hand that had been pulling out the talisman back into his arms, and pulled out a mirror hanging around his neck: "You say you're not a demon, then do you dare to look into the magic mirror once?"
"If I weren't a demon, would you dare stand still and take my full-strength hammer?" Lady Hu's hands drooped, the fox fur slipping from her shoulders and being caught by the maid in her arms. She smoothed her wind-torn hair and raised her hand to take the hammer that her maid, Yu'er, had retrieved for her. Lady Hu flexed her arms and sneered at the man, "What?" So, just because you slander someone, they have to cooperate with you in proving their innocence? Are you really giving them face?
"Good!" The other onlookers applauded enthusiastically: "There's no such thing as putting pressure on the suspect! When the facts are unclear, we just stand by and don't take sides."
"Yes!" The man confidently thrust the magic mirror in front of Madam Hu. The palm-sized mirror reflected dazzling light in the sunlight, vaguely reflecting Madam Hu's intoxicating peach-blossom face.
"This mirror of yours is no good. It can't even reflect our lady's face clearly." The maid Yu'er put on airs and showed a look of disgust: Hold it in, hold it in... I can't hold it in anymore. Is this guy crazy about becoming famous?
"Yu'er." Madam Hu stretched out her index finger and tapped Yu'er's shoulder.
"Madam, please forgive me!" The maid Yu'er shuddered and straightened her back instantly: Wow, my salary is going to be deducted, my work this month is going to be in vain.
Mrs. Hu looked at Yu'er, who was almost unable to hold up her icy mask, and raised her hand to push her aside, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "What crime have you committed?"
Mrs. Hu: What are you doing standing here? You little fool, you're blocking your wife's hammer!
"Hurry, hurry, the most exciting part is coming!" Seeing Mrs. Hu start to roll up her sleeves, Liu Jiuyue excitedly rushed to the window. With her vision blocked, Bei Qiao simply stood up and went to the other side of the window.
Noticing Bei Qiao getting a little too close, the maid in green immediately followed Liu Jiuyue over, a look of wariness on her face. Although she had a clear conscience, being stared at like that wasn't exactly pleasant. Fortunately, Bei Qiao was captivated by the excitement downstairs, and for the moment, she didn't bother to argue with the maid.
Downstairs, the unyielding man was struck in the left shoulder by Madame Hu's hammer, and he tumbled to the ground with a wail of pain. The pink hammer landed beside the man, stirring his braids and cracking the floor tiles beside him. As for the man who had been cooperating with the man's acting, he now looked around with his mouth wide open, a look of shock. It was unclear if he had no lines at the moment.
That being said, if you look at the hammer's appearance, regardless of its size, it's actually quite exquisite. The tender pink color is full of girlishness, and there are very cute patterns on it. But if you magnify such a hammer several times...it's actually cute too, but the man being hit by the hammer certainly wouldn't think so.
"Why did you dodge? This time it doesn't count." Mrs. Hu chuckled and swung the pink hammer: "A real man should keep his word. Don't hide..."
"My lady, be careful!" Yu'er, the maid closest to the man, noticed he was about to attack her. She didn't even bother drawing her sword, but instead raised it, shear and all, and struck him, narrowly missing the peach wood sword in his hand. With a snap, the sword broke into several pieces.
The maid Yu'er, who had been nervous for nothing, said: "...You, you are simply sick!" He even played with the peach wood sword to kill the demon, huh? You must have read a lot of miscellaneous books!
