Chapter 40 Chapter 40 What a wonderful place you brought me...
"Your Majesty, I know this is very difficult for you." Lu Fang felt that his proposal was really useless.
The emperor has never been interested in women, so why would he practice spiritual cultivation with someone?
Then he heard his Emperor, who was not interested in women, ask, "Is spiritual practice really possible?"
Lu Fang was shocked. Did he really listen to it?
"That's doable." Lu Fang nodded, but then thought about it and said, "If it doesn't work the first time, you can try a few more times."
Zhou Li glanced at him and didn't say anything more about the matter. Instead, he asked, "Are you waiting for me to return to the demon world?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, my mission is to stay by your side! Never leave you!" Lu Fang knelt on one knee again respectfully.
Zhou Li looked at him with his eyes lowered, and could see that Lu Fang was indeed a simple-minded person.
Like Lu Rong, his eyes are clear.
"I've been gone for so many years, will the people in the demon world still want me to come back?" A superior who has lost his power is the last person who should appear.
Lu Fang hurriedly said, "My Lord! No one can shake your position!"
Zhou Li sneered: "That's what you think."
He was not interested in the demon world either. He did not want to be a puppet of any power, whether it was the demon world or the Xuanyang Sect.
No one can trap him.
Zhou Li put his hands behind his back and said, "You can find a new master. I don't want to be an emperor."
After hearing this, Lu Fang said aggrievedly: "My Lord, you can take care of yourself, but let thousands of people in the demon world be tortured by the miasma until they go crazy and even have no home to return to."
"What's my relationship with them?" Zhou Li was indifferent. He had always been a cold-hearted person. "Did they save me?"
Lu Fang was speechless for a moment. Those people had never saved Zhou Li and had even persecuted him.
Zhou Li has always understood people's hearts.
"Lu Fang, you are the only one in the entire demon world who wants me to go back." He punctured Lu Fang's wishful thinking.
Lu Fang retorted, “The demon world has been searching for you all these years.”
"Oh? So that black snake in Luocheng was so murderous towards me, was it also looking for me?" Zhou Li asked meaningfully.
"Black Snake?" Lu Fang's expression changed. "My Lord, I will go back and get some information immediately."
Lu Fang wanted to leave, but Zhou Li stopped him: "No need, you won't be able to come back if you go and ask."
After he finished speaking, he walked out alone. Although Lu Fang was loyal, he was a little stupid.
Seeing that his lord had left, Lu Fang hurriedly followed him: "Lord, where are you going?"
Zhou Li pointed in a direction: "You go explore the way first."
Lu Fang agreed and flew in that direction, while Zhou Li stepped on the ice crack and headed in the opposite direction.
Bing Lie, who had been tricked like this many times, said: “?” Such a familiar trick.
It asked curiously: "Master, are you going to look for Lu Rong?"
Zhou Li said calmly: "Don't ask."
"Master, I noticed that you only think about two things every day. One is cultivation, and the other is Lu Rong."
Zhou Li: “…No.”
Bing Lie: "Impossible, Master, I know everything you are thinking!"
"Oh?" Zhou Li raised his foot lightly and kicked the ice crack away.
The Xuanyang Sect only saw a streak of light flying high in the sky, and for a moment they were puzzled as to how there could be a meteorite in broad daylight.
When Bing Lie flew back, Zhou Li had disappeared.
*
Lu Rong is currently visiting the mayor of Nan'an City at his residence.
Xuanyang Sect is the first sect to visit every place and communicate with the person in charge first to explain the purpose of the visit to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
The residence of the Lord of South City is very grand, with pavilions and towers covering a large area. There is even a small hill in the mansion, on which a magnificent temple of the goddess is specially built.
When Lu Rong came in just now, she saw the golden temple on the hill that was so bright that it blinded her eyes.
I couldn't help but marvel in my heart, I wish this place had a goddess in every place.
Qiu Ling and Lu Rong were sitting opposite Nancheng's young mayor, Nan Anyuan, drinking tea. Qiu Ling was mainly negotiating with them. Lu Rong put his hands down under the table, but his eyes were looking at the peach tree outside the house that was full of peaches.
It was the first time she saw peaches on trees anywhere other than Wuhuijian.
Before, she thought that the peaches grown by Zhou Li were nothing special except desserts. Now, compared with the one outside, she felt that the peaches grown by Zhou Li were not only beautiful, but also big.
Thinking of Zhou Li, she subconsciously looked at her jade token and reached out to touch it, not knowing whether Zhou Li would send her a message.
Just as she lowered her head, she heard a gentle voice: "Miss Lu, I see you've been distracted. Is there something I haven't said?"
Lu Rong hurriedly looked up and said, "No, no, don't worry about me. Just talk to my Senior Sister Qiu Ling."
She took a sip of tea awkwardly, wondering why this person suddenly paid attention to her.
Qiu Ling took the opportunity to send him a message: "That kid was secretly looking at you just now."
Lu Rong: "? Didn't I wash my face clean?"
Qiu Ling: "Miss, don't give me this face!"
"No, that won't work. It was given to me by my father and mother." Lu Rong smiled at Qiu Ling and immediately felt the other's eyes on him.
Lu Rong immediately stopped smiling, pretending to be clueless. She stood up and said, "I have something to do. I'll be out for a while. You guys can chat."
After saying that, she turned and left, mainly because she felt a little uneasy.
The way Nan Anyuan looked at her just now was very similar to the way the hotel owner looked at her.
Greed carries with it evil desires.
It was as if she was a delicacy about to be enjoyed.
Lu Rong walked out the door and looked up at the golden building on the mountain.
The sunlight is bright, but I have an inexplicable eerie feeling.
Lu Rong put her hands in front of her and took the jade token to deliver the message to her father.
[Lu Xiaorong: Dad, why are there so many goddess elephants in Nan'an City?]
[The Xuanyang Sect Patriarch: The goddess saved the people of Nan'an City, so it is only right that she should be worshipped.]
Lu Rong read his father's explanation and felt that it made sense. After all, it was a life-saving favor.
Her doubts were slightly dispelled, and she went back into the house. It would not be nice to leave Qiu Ling alone there.
When she sat back down and met Nan Anyuan's gaze, he simply smiled and said slowly, "You two have come all this way with more than a dozen people. It must be tiring. The restaurant is simple and cannot provide adequate hospitality. It would be better for you to stay in the mansion. I'm sure you will be well taken care of."
"No need." Lu Rong refused, "That would be too much trouble for you."
"This isn't a problem; it's a blessing." Nan Anyuan said with a smile, his features still revealing a hint of piety. "The goddess taught us to respect those who practice Taoism."
As he spoke, he made a hand gesture, pressed his hand between his eyebrows, and muttered something.
Lu Rong and Qiu Ling looked at each other, wondering what this guy was doing.
"Sorry, we have rituals every day." Nan Anyuan smiled, "I have already arranged it. You two should not refuse, otherwise my father will blame me for not being able to do such a small thing."
These words made both of them not know how to refuse.
It was Qiu Ling who said, "If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you."
"It is a blessing for Nan'an." He bowed and recited again, and it was obvious that he was very pious.
When we got there, Nan Anyuan said that there would be a banquet tonight.
When Lu Rong heard about the banquet, she thought of the incident when she sprayed tea all over Zhou Li.
It’s all the Hongmen Banquet!
There was still some time before evening, so the two of them took their twelve children out of Nan'an Prefecture and strolled on the streets.
Studying abroad means, of course, wandering around, having fun and occasionally studying.
"Senior sister, can we move freely?" someone asked them.
Qiu Ling threw twelve bracelets from his arms to them: "Put them on yourselves. If you lose them, I won't be able to find you."
All twelve children put them on obediently. When Lu Rong saw the small gold bracelets on their hands, she felt a little familiar.
"A-Ling, I think I've worn this bracelet before."
"Yes, your father must have taken you there when you were a kid studying abroad." Qiu Ling finished speaking, but Lu Rong was still confused. "Did I go abroad to study abroad with my father?"
"Yes, when you were eight years old, you were sick for several days after you returned home. Your father was worried sick."
But Lu Rong couldn't remember anything at all.
"Zhou Li was with you at the time. He stayed by your bed when you were sick. You don't forget anything, do you?"
Lu Rong: "I don't remember anything at all."
"Maybe you got confused because of your high fever last time." Qiu Ling put his hand on her shoulder. "Otherwise, why do I always say that Jian Zun treats you differently? It's because when you were sick, he stayed with you for several days without eating or drinking. I think he treats you very well."
But these deer have no impression at all.
She didn't even remember coming here to study.
"Those were our childhood memories. You're so forgetful." Qiu Ling patted her shoulder and said to the twelve people behind him, "Go have fun. If you have any questions, call me or Senior Sister Lu."
After saying that, the twelve kids went off to play by themselves, and Lu Rong was still a little dizzy.
She has a bad memory, but she wouldn't forget things from when she was eight years old.
She's not stupid.
Lu Rong thought that her father could erase people's memories. Could it be that her father erased her memory?
"Come on, let's go and play too." Qiu Ling pulled her to go and play.
"Where are we going to play?" Lu Rong asked curiously, following her.
"It is said that there is a restaurant in Nan'an City that is very interesting."
"What do you mean by very interesting?" Lu Rong became a little interested.
Qiu Ling smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry about where I will take you. You will know when you get there."
Lu Rong felt a little uneasy, and when she arrived, she saw a very elegantly decorated three-story restaurant. On the second-floor platform, there were actually more than one handsome men.
"What good place did you bring me to?" Lu Rong pulled Qiu Ling in.
"It's said this restaurant only caters to women." As the two entered, before they could even take their seats, a handsome man approached them with a smile and asked, "Would you two ladies like to have a drink?"
"That's right." Lu Rong had never seen such a handsome man in Luocheng before, but now she had seen enough of him here.
His appearance is not inferior at all, not even a bit feminine, he looks very masculine, and even his clothes are well worn.
Just as Lu Rong was thinking about it, she saw the sister at the opposite table spill wine on the clothes of the man who was drinking with her, and then she saw that the clothes turned transparent.
Her eyes widened as she watched.
Good, nice clothes.
No, it’s good material.
Lu Rong felt that this was the perfect place to paint erotic pictures, and he couldn't wait to take out his paintbrush and start painting one.
"Let's order some wine first." Qiu Ling took the drink menu and ordered three pots. He turned around and saw Lu Rong secretly drawing pornographic pictures.
Qiu Ling: “??? What are you doing?”
Lu Rong: "Inspiration comes, let me draw!"
She lowered her head and was trying hard to draw the scene just now. Qiu Ling shook his head and stood up to see if there was any other food.
But before I had walked a short distance, I felt that the bustling surroundings suddenly became quiet.
She subconsciously looked back and saw someone walking in slowly.
Her eyes suddenly widened and she looked at Lu Rong who was busy painting. She covered her face and thought, Lu Xiaorong, please raise your head.
Lu Rong was immersed in her art when she felt someone standing next to her. She thought it was Qiu Ling and asked casually, "Is the painting very sexy?"
Zhou Li looked at the man in the painting. The parts of his clothes that were not wet were tightly wrapped, but the parts that were wet revealed his eight-pack abs and the mermaid line that extended downwards. His nakedness was so exposed that it made people imagine a lot.
He lowered his head, deliberately getting close to her face, and asked in a low voice: "Who is the painting?"
