"How sad are you? Tell it out loud to make me happy?" Liang Qiu Fei also tilted his head and asked teasingly.
"Brother Fei, I'm serious!" Wang Xiaoyu's face turned bitter, and her eyes became serious. "This matter has to start from half a year ago...Brother Fei, do you remember that time when we made an appointment to play in Tanglou, and I told you about that time when a beautiful woman came up to me and said she wanted to repay me for my kindness?"
Liang Qiufei also thought about it for a while and vaguely remembered it.
The wine in Tanglou is good, so these playboys in Kyoto naturally won’t miss it and often go there when they get together.
That time, the little fat man in front of him hurried in from outside, patted his chest, and said in a panic: "Brothers, a beautiful woman came to our door and said she wants to repay a favor and may even marry her. What should we do?"
Then... he was beaten up by everyone.
Of course, no one believed that he really met such a beautiful woman who was willing to repay him.
Liang Qiufei also nodded, indicating that she still had some impression.
"I was not talking nonsense that time. There really was such a beauty. She came to my house and said she wanted to repay me." Wang Xiaoyu said.
Liang Qiufei also looked up and down at the plump little man in front of her and clearly expressed her doubts, "Impossible! I don't believe it!"
Wang Xiaoyu's eyes instantly became resentful. You can't look down on me just because I'm fat, I'm telling you!
"...I really said I wanted to repay you, but I didn't say I would pledge my love to you." Wang Xiaoyu hesitated and gradually uttered the words.
"Oh~" Liang Qiufei nodded suddenly, "Then there's no problem. I believe you."
Wang Xiaoyu's fat face twitched for a while, and he really wanted to roll up his sleeves and have a duel with Liang Qiufei in front of him!
However, after thinking that this was the imperial palace and that there were many palace maids, eunuchs, and even powerful guards outside the palace, Wang Xiaoyu silently gave up.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Xiaoyu continued, "That beauty said I saved her and came to me to repay her kindness. She also said...if I wanted, she could take me in as a disciple and teach me the secret of immortality."
Sitting down on the chair next to Liangqiu Feiye, Wang Xiaoyu continued, "Can I believe it? Of course not. There's no such thing as immortality in this world. Besides, I don't even remember saving her!"
As soon as Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, Liangqiu Feiye's eyes instantly became strange.
Three days ago, he was just like Wang Xiaoyu, not believing in anything supernatural, but now... Liang Qiufei couldn't help but shift his gaze and glanced at Yu Bieliu subtly.
How could he not believe it when a female corpse was standing right in front of him, alive and kicking? Oh, she wasn't alive and kicking, she was very calm.
In other words, the beautiful woman Wang Xiaoyu met who was repaying her kindness might very well be real and possess unfathomable abilities?
"Such a beautiful woman!" Wang Xiaoyu's eyes gleamed. "If I really saved her, wouldn't I have made my request long ago? Would I have waited for her to catch up and repay me?"
"Logically, I should have made it clear at this time that I didn't save her and let her go back to where she came from, but..." Wang Xiaoyu looked embarrassed and a little ashamed.
"But when you see she's beautiful, you can't help but talk nonsense?" Liang Qiu Fei asked back with understanding.
"Well, I said: Since you are repaying a favor, why don't you marry me and become my wife? But the beauty shook her head and said, 'No, you are too young...'" After saying this, Wang Xiaoyu was silent for a moment, her eyes filled with grief. "Do you think I can tolerate this? I wanted to take it out and let her see it!"
Liang Qiufei also raised an eyebrow and glanced downwards, "Hmm?"
Wang Xiaoyu: "..." If you continue like this, I really won’t be able to help but duel with you!
"After noticing that I was unhappy, the beauty reacted and explained that she was talking about age." Wang Xiaoyu continued, "She looked to be in her twenties, and indeed older than me. I couldn't refute that."
"If I don't repay a favor with my own body, what's the point of repaying it? I was a little upset at the time because of something small...something about my age. Then I remembered her saying she'd take me in as a disciple and teach me how to live forever, so I said, 'Okay, come on, let me teach you!'"
Liang Qiu Fei was silent for a moment. If what this beautiful woman who was repaying a favor said was a lie, that would be fine. But if it was true... she could only say that the little fat man in front of her was really lucky.
Wang Xiaoyu sighed softly, "When I agreed, I was just waiting to see how she would teach me. But she said her method wasn't suitable for me, and told me to wait until she found a suitable one and then teach me. Then she turned and left."
"In this case, it looks a bit like a scam." Liang Qiufei also pondered.
"Yeah, she said she would teach me, but then she found an excuse to say she couldn't for the time being and kept dragging things out. Isn't that a common tactic used by scammers?" Wang Xiaoyu nodded. "So of course I didn't believe her. I turned around and went to Tanglou to have a drink with you guys. I haven't seen her since, so I put the matter behind me."
After hearing this, Liangqiu Fei roughly understood. Could it be that this beauty disappeared for half a year and then came back to find the little fat boy to teach him the so-called method of immortality?
"Four days ago, after I separated from you, I was heading home. Halfway there, I was stopped by that woman. She said she'd returned as agreed... I always thought she was a liar. How could I possibly have made any agreement with her? And even cultivate immortality? Ha!"
Liang Qiufei's expression suddenly became much more serious.
If she was a scammer, she wouldn't have come back to him after such a long time. Moreover, according to what the fat man said, the beauty didn't intend to take anything from him.
If she’s not a liar, then this beauty can only be... a real immortal cultivator?
"...You don't believe it?" Liang Qiufei took a deep breath and asked Wang Xiaoyu back, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
He had missed out on his own cultivation technique not long ago! Ha!
"Of course I don't believe it! I even made it clear right then and there that I never saved her and would never learn anything from a liar like her!" At this point, Wang Xiaoyu's face twitched and she fell silent for a moment.
Liang Qiufei also gave him a sympathetic look, "And then you discovered that everything she said was true?"
"Brother Fei, how did you know?" Wang Xiaoyu was immediately surprised.
Four days ago, when they agreed to go find the Tomb Palace, Liangqiu Fei was still just like him, not believing in gods and ghosts. How could she have changed in such a short time? Could it be that...
Wang Xiaoyu's eyes widened as he asked, "Brother Fei, you didn't really go into the tomb palace, did you? And you saw... ghosts?"
Liang Qiufei didn't comment on this either, and raised her chin, "Talk about your business first!"
"Ah? Oh," Wang Xiaoyu nodded. "After I called her a liar, she got angry. Then, she grabbed me by the back of my collar and dragged me... into the sky!"
