Chapter 69
The second young master, who had been following Ning Xu and eating melon, couldn't help but reveal a faint smile on his face.
As far as he knew, among the suitors of the Peach Goddess, there happened to be the second son of the Lord of Xingtao City.
This second legitimate son has been very popular recently and has received a lot of attention. Many people think that he is going to marry the beautiful woman.
It just so happened that his relationship with the city lord's second son was not very harmonious.
If this person's scandal could be exposed and his reputation ruined, he would probably wake up laughing in his sleep.
Ning Xu turned her head and happened to see the smile on the second young master's face.
She was a little surprised, "What are you laughing at?"
The second young master was startled when he heard this. For some reason, there was a voice in his heart telling him that he must never tell the truth.
Not only can you not say it, it’s best not to reveal even a single related word.
He barely hesitated and said directly, "When I think that Ah Chen, who I watched grow up, is actually related to me by blood, I can't help but feel happy."
Ning Shu also laughed.
Wu Luchen was in the limelight today, and she also received benefits from the head of the Wu family. It can be said that she reaped a lot.
The two of them were laughing at their own things. At this time, the melon-eating system suddenly made a sound of "tsk, this Mr. Wu next to you is also a funny guy." 】
Second Young Master:? ? ?
Ning Xu looked at the second young master of the Wu family openly and asked, "What do you mean?"
[This Second Young Master Wu, more than a decade ago, when he was almost a hundred years old, the head of the Wu family suddenly started to worry about his marriage and wanted him to marry the daughter of a family in Xingtao City. 】
Marriage alliance.
It seems to be a common practice among cultivation families.
She asked, "And then?"
[Then, his marriage partner was poisoned when he was young and was not very good-looking. 】
[He didn't like it.] 】
The melon-eating system said this and tutted in disdain. [In order to reject the arranged marriage, he made a big fuss about the fact that he and his cousin from his uncle's family were in love with each other, saying that he and his cousin were childhood sweethearts, a match made in heaven, and if it weren't for the pressure from their family, they would have been together a long time ago. 】
[When he mentioned his cousin, he choked up several times and couldn't control his emotions. 】
Ning Xu:! ! !
Second Young Master: ...
He never expected that he would end up eating the melon himself.
This magical being actually knew about something that happened so many years ago.
After so many years, almost no one in Xingtao City talked about this matter. Even he, the person involved, almost forgot about it. Unexpectedly, it was suddenly brought up again today...
Don't ask, it's embarrassing.
Ning Xu asked with interest, "So what is the relationship between him and his cousin? Are they truly in love?"
[No, these two people do have a good relationship, but it’s not that kind of relationship. 】
[It’s just pure brotherhood.] 】
Ning Xu glanced at Young Master Wu with a look of admiration, "In order to avoid marriage, he even gave up his own reputation."
The melon-eating system laughed, [Yeah, otherwise how can you say he is a fun person. 】
[There was obviously a better solution, but he chose the one that was less favorable to him. 】
[He also dragged his cousin into this.] 】
Ning Xu asked with interest, "How are they doing now?"
The melon-eating system laughed wildly, [Not very good, they are all perennial bachelors. 】
When Ning Xu heard the term "eternal bachelor", he also started laughing.
Seeing the smile in her eyes and eyebrows, the corners of her innocent lips were slightly raised.
The only one injured in the entire game was the second young master of the Wu family.
Wu Ershao: A bachelor forever? Not at all, he is just over a hundred years old! His cousin is not much older than him, so how come he has been a bachelor for years?
The melon-eating system continued, "Anyway, it's impossible for the daughter of a prominent family in Xingtao City to fall in love with these two. 】
[The head of the Wu family has no plans to allow the second young master Wu to marry. 】
Ning Xu, "Why? Could it be that the head of the Wu family took it seriously?"
[They took it seriously. Not just the head of the Wu family, but everyone who knew about this incident took it seriously. 】
[I thought they were truly in love and their bond was stronger than gold.] Who can blame this guy for his first-rate acting skills? 】
[Actually? 】
[That’s not the case.] 】
[Who would have thought that Young Master Wu is such a reckless person.] He is just playing! 】
[His cousin had been looking for a partner before, but no one was interested in him because of his family background. Recently he fell in love with a young girl, but his sweetheart avoided him like the plague, for fear that she would become a part of his and Wu Ershao's play. 】
Mr. Wu:! ! !
His cousin actually has a crush on someone? !
He feels sorry for his cousin!
But he and his cousin haven't seen each other for almost four or five years. How come someone still remembers them?
Ning Shu asked, "Does Mr. Wu have someone he likes?"
[No, with his three and a half year old mentality, he probably hasn't figured it out yet. 】
Wu Er Shao, who was said to be three and a half years old: ...
While everyone was talking about the melons, the private vault of the head of the Wu family arrived.
Ning Su showed his ID card to the guard at the door and was let in. Obviously, the guards had already been instructed by the head of the Wu family.
As soon as Ning Xu entered the private vault of the Wu family patriarch, he was dazzled by the treasures in front of him. It must be said that there were really a lot of good things in the private vault of the Wu family patriarch, and all kinds of spiritual treasures were placed in different categories.
Young Master Wu said enthusiastically, "Fellow Daoist, take whatever you want. You've made my grandfather famous today. Even if you clear out the place, he probably won't say anything."
Ning Xu and the melon-eating system joked, "If the head of the Wu family knew about this, he would probably scold him for being an unfilial descendant."
The treasures in the private vault should account for most of the wealth of the head of the Wu family.
It is obviously unrealistic to empty out everything. Although the head of the Wu family said that you can pick whatever you want, if you really take everything, there will be no more kindness.
It is not necessary to empty the place, but it is necessary to pick out a few valuable and useful items.
The melon-eating system became very excited when it came in.
After all, the host it is bound to is about to become rich overnight!
[Host, pick this, pick this. It is a top-grade defensive magic weapon. It looks like a sachet and is very convenient to carry with you. 】
[Host, this hairpin is so beautiful. It is also a defensive type and suits you! 】
[Host, host, and this...]
There are about a hundred treasures in the private vault of the head of the Wu family.
Ning Xu only planned to pick about twenty pieces.
Of course, among these one hundred treasures, the six most valuable ones were picked up by her at once.
As for the rest...
Ning Xu saw a small and exquisite pot in the treasure pavilion by the window.
The entire pot is black and only the size of a fist. A lifelike black dragon is carved on it. When the sunlight reflects on the black dragon, the dragon seems to be about to take off.
She couldn't help but pick up the pot and play with it. Unlike the coldness I imagined, this pot is warm to the touch and feels great. She turned to look at Chunqing Xiugou, "Do you like this?"
Seeing her pick up the pot, the melon-eating system immediately introduced it, "This was taken out from a secret realm by the head of the Wu family when he was young. 】
[He asked many people to appraise the treasure, but all they found out was that it was just an ordinary pot with a pretty good appearance. 】
Ning Shu was stunned for a moment, and said to the melon-eating system, "An ordinary pot? Then it won't be used by the pure love cultivators."
The melon-eating system was busy stopping her.
[Although no one could identify the material and origin of this pot, the head of the Wu family believed that it was a good thing, so he put it in his private warehouse. 】
[In fact, this is indeed a good thing. The main raw material used is star iron, which is extremely rare and could not be mined thousands of years ago. 】
[This iron can keep the pot at a constant temperature. Even if it is burned by strange fire, it will not be burned through. It can be used for cooking and for defense. 】
[It has been around for thousands of years. During these years, it has experienced the chaos between humans and demons, as well as the peaceful times. It has had several owners and has been changed hands countless times. 】
[The spirit of the instrument will be born soon.] 】
I didn't expect that he was such an experienced guy.
After listening to the introduction of the melon-eating system, Ning Xu realized that it was indeed a good thing.
She held the pot close to Chunqing Xiugou and said, "I think this is good and will suit you. What do you think?"
[Wow, my innocent Xiu Gou, he is still using an ordinary pot bought with a few hundred low-grade spirit stones! 】
[Although such an ordinary pot is not ordinary at all in his hands, such a cheap pot is really not worthy of him at all! 】
By the end, the melon-eating system was shouting at the top of its lungs, and its voice was broken.
Ning Xu agreed deeply, "The current pot is definitely not worthy of him."
Of course, her teammates must also use the best.
The pure-hearted cultivator lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes and said, "I'll listen to you." After that, he directly dripped blood to acknowledge his master.
Mr. Wu:! ! !
Do you acknowledge your master now?
This pot...even he was tempted.
Star iron!
That is the top-grade refining material that appears in the textbooks of the cultivation world!
This strange voice was not wrong. Star Iron had indeed been impossible to mine for more than a thousand years.
In fact, it is almost becoming a legend.
This is the raw material coveted by countless weapon refiners. Unexpectedly, he actually saw a treasure made of star iron in his grandfather's private vault.
But now, this treasure has become someone else's.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't heartbroken.
It would be even more false to say that I am not jealous at all.
But there was no way, the Wu family had nothing to do with this.
Since we are not destined to be together, then giving it to someone who is destined to be together is also a kind of fate. Anyway, his grandfather doesn't know either, so just pretend nothing happened.
Seeing that Chunqing Xiugou had taken the pot, Ning Shu said expectantly, "I wonder if the food cooked with it will be more delicious."
The pure and innocent Xiu Gou's white jade-like fingers held the pure black pot. The collision of black and white added a bit of inexplicable beauty. He asked, "What would you like for dinner?"
"I want to eat sauerkraut and fatty beef soup again."
"good!"
After the pot, Ning Xu picked out a dozen more treasures.
Most of the weapons she picked were defensive weapons.
You can never have too many defensive treasures, not to mention that she has several teammates.
After selecting the magic weapon and leaving the patriarch's private vault, Young Master Wu had a complicated expression on his face.
This person is really good at picking.
Although she only picked out one-fifth of the treasures in her grandfather's private storehouse, this one-fifth was still much better than the remaining four-fifths.
All I can say is that this time his grandfather really spent a lot of money.
However, they sent a body-building genius to the Wu family at a critical moment.
The appearance of Wu Luchen can not only intimidate other families, but also stabilize the hearts of people within the family. This cannot be measured by spirit stones.
After all, even if Ning Xu is a little more greedy, it wouldn't be too much.
-
As soon as they walked out of the private warehouse, Ning Xu and others learned some news.
The first piece of news was that in order to publicize the existence of Wu Luchen, the head of the Wu family was planning to hold a grand banquet in three days, inviting countless relatives and friends to attend.
The second piece of news was that Mr. Wu’s cousin happened to be nearby, and after hearing the news, he hurried over.
The third piece of news was that in order to thank Ning Xu, the head of the Wu family invited her and her teammates to dinner.
Hearing this, Ning Xu exclaimed.
"It seems that we can see the old bachelor who was dragged down by Young Master Wu."
The melon-eating system said nervously, "Let's ignore that old bachelor for now. 】
[The second son of the Lord of Xingtao City invites the Peach Goddess to go on a night tour together. 】
[The goddess agreed!] 】
[But this thing is not a good thing! He is preparing to use a dirty trick! It's a pity that he was so good at pretending that he even deceived the goddess! 】
Ning Shu was stunned for a moment and then said, "Put the melons in! Put the melons in now!"
In order to prevent this man from succeeding, Ning Xu and the melon-eating system had no choice but to act without ethics.
She couldn't help but think in her heart, I'm so sorry, fellow Taoist. But since you are a scumbag anyway, you should be mentally prepared for the news to be exposed, right?
