Chapter 238 Zeng Anmin: Sister Liu, please get off my bed
"But before we figure this out."
"Lotus of the Earth..."
Zeng Anmin's gaze was fixed on the imperial palace.
The news he saw in the secret archives of the Imperial City Bureau.
"Those with strong and evil bodies can swallow the Lotus of Earth to temporarily and significantly increase their combat power."
Zeng Anmin captured this information very keenly.
The visitor in the bamboo hat that day was too strange.
And there is his fighting power.
The fighting method used is purely physical...
This can also be inferred from the action of the man in the bamboo hat fleeing in panic from the short sword of the second-grade ancestor.
The fighting power of the man in the bamboo hat is not as good as the best but better than the worst.
Compared to the third-grade warrior, he can be overwhelmed by force.
But compared to the second-rank warrior, he fled in panic...
If that's the case.
A deep look appeared on Zeng Anmin's face.
"Looking at the scroll deduced by the disciples of the Xuanzhen Division..."
"The identity of the man in the bamboo hat is most likely the evil zombie I encountered."
"As for the reason why the man in the bamboo hat doesn't match the evil zombie's fighting power..."
Zeng Anmin muttered to himself:
"Earth Lotus... An evil zombie that consumed the Earth Lotus. The increased combat power is temporary."
So here comes the question.
Zeng Anmin narrowed his eyes, his voice filled with a hint of doubt:
"What is the purpose of the evil zombie?"
"Or rather, what is the purpose of the person behind the evil zombies?"
"Assassinate His Majesty?" Zeng Anmin shook his head slowly:
"If the purpose was to assassinate Emperor Jianhong, they would never choose such a place, not even in the capital."
etc.
Zeng Anmin's eyes suddenly froze.
He raised his head and looked towards the direction of the palace.
There was a strange look on his face:
"Could this assassination... have been staged by Emperor Jianhong himself?"
Speaking of this.
Zeng Anmin's eyes gleamed brightly:
"Nan also said that the Lotus of Earth is within the territory of the Great Saint Dynasty."
"Only Emperor Jianhong can read the Record of Strange Herbs..."
There was a gleam of brilliance in Zeng Anmin's eyes.
He suddenly thought of the fight between that day and this moment.
Ningguo Duke Li Jian after fighting with Si Zhongxiao.
Li Jian's increasingly aged demeanor...
For a while.
A bold idea came into Zeng Anmin's mind.
"Ningguo Duke Li Jian is old but not dead."
"On the surface, he lives in seclusion outside the imperial court, but secretly he controls the military power."
"He has displeased His Majesty, so he wants to deal with him..."
Thinking of this, Zeng Anmin felt more and more that his reasoning was extremely correct.
"After all, Duke Ningguo Li Jian has fought for the Great Saint Dynasty for decades. If Your Majesty wants to kill him, no matter what excuse you find, you will lose the support of the people."
"But using the evil zombie's hand to force Duke Ningguo to take action, exacerbating his physical overload, thus saving the country in a roundabout way..."
Thinking of this, Zeng Anmin felt like a detective.
Sherlock Holmes, Conan...all of them, die.
I am the brightest star in the criminal investigation world.
Of course, Zeng Anmin is not blindly confident.
He felt that he might have missed something.
But not much.
"In that case, I don't have to deal with Duke Ningguo at all."
Zeng Anmin's expression turned strange:
"Your Majesty will deal with him... I'll just sit back and watch!"
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt relieved.
The thought of having to deal with his biggest concern personally by His Majesty.
Zeng Anmin couldn't help feeling a little proud.
“Huh~”
He stretched.
Feeling relaxed, he unconsciously walked out of his room.
I looked up at today's moon.
"Hmm... the moon is very round... not right..."
Zeng Anmin blinked: "Why is there a Chang'e on the moon?"
wrong.
Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.
Right above his house.
A figure was flying on a sword.
"Senior Sister Liu?"
Zeng Anmin rolled his eyes after seeing it clearly:
"You're flying a sword over my house late at night. What's going on? Are you trying to surprise me?"
He had just finished speaking.
Then a barely perceptible "chirp" sound was heard.
Then, Liu Shishi put away her flying sword and jumped in front of him.
"What a coincidence." Liu Shishi smiled naturally, "I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Of course it's a coincidence that this is my home."
Zeng Anmin glanced at her.
No one goes to the temple unless he has something to do.
"Huh? Is this your house?"
Liu Shishi was stunned for a moment. She looked around curiously and said, "It seems so..."
Zeng Anmin was speechless.
"What's going on? What mission are you on today?"
Zeng Anmin was too lazy to expose her.
He looked Liu Shishi up and down.
Liu Shishi was not wearing that patched clothes today.
Instead, he was wearing a formal Xuanzhensi uniform.
It looks very heroic when worn on her.
and……
Zeng Anmin looked at her carefully, blinked his eyes and asked:
"You're wearing makeup today?"
Liu Shishi was originally very delicate in appearance.
Although her facial features are not as majestic as those of the eldest princess.
But it also has a soft and exquisite quality that is unique to the Jiangnan water towns.
Especially those fox-like eyes.
It even adds a touch of softness and charm.
"It's okay, can't you come and sit down?"
Liu Shishi saw Zeng Anmin looking at her carefully.
She was suddenly filled with joy.
At the same time, a sense of pride rose in his heart.
Although she never cared about her appearance.
But as a beauty, how could she not know that she is beautiful?
Before coming here today, she specifically consulted the courtesan in the Music Bureau and put on some exquisite makeup on her face.
“Huh~”
She tried to keep her composure.
He blinked at Zeng Anmin.
I have to say it.
She is very good at taking advantage of her own strengths.
When those upturned eyes blinked, they exuded a kind of charm that was difficult to control.
But who am I, Zeng Anmin?
I already have a princess.
I'm sorry, I can't accept you.
"Yes."
Zeng Anmin chuckled, then turned around and slowly lay down on the bench in his yard.
Then he pulled a stool over and stretched comfortably:
"Sit down."
When Liu Shishi heard this, she felt that her plan was going more smoothly.
She took a deep breath to suppress the excitement in her heart.
Then he sat on the chair, trying to maintain his posture:
"I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just bought some on the street."
As she spoke, she took out a few boxes of food from the compass on her waist.
Place it in front of Zeng Anmin.
Zeng Anmin felt very uncomfortable.
Not Senior Sister Liu.
You're being too obvious.
What is the purpose?
It was the same last time I came.
I became better to myself for no apparent reason.
"Actually, there are some things that you can speak frankly about, Senior Sister."
Zeng Anmin crossed his legs.
He looked up at Liu Shishi.
She has a pure oval face and her upturned eyes.
It really looks good.
It has to be said that Master Xu Tianshi is not very good at choosing his disciples.
At least in terms of appearance, each one is more attractive than the other.
Zeng Anmin couldn't help but take another look.
But he swore that when he looked at Liu Shishi, he was definitely just looking at her with admiration.
There is definitely not a single distracting thought.
"What purpose could I have?"
Liu Shishi uttered a "Hurry" sound, and a dry smile appeared on her face:
“Coming here today is really a coincidence.”
"Coincidence?"
Zeng Anmin raised his brows slightly, glanced at Liu Shishi and said:
"I changed into some nice clothes and even put on some makeup..."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head back:
"I remember that Senior Sister never cared about her appearance..."
"Actually, I understand. My outstanding performance in the illusion array was clearly seen by Senior Sister."
"Well...is there any girl in this world who doesn't have spring in her heart?"
"Could it be that my outstanding performance deeply attracted Senior Sister, making her favor me..."
Having said that, Zeng Anmin touched his chin, and a hint of intoxication appeared on his face unconsciously:
"I can feel that Senior Sister must be deeply in love with me."
…
He finished speaking.
Liu Shishi couldn't help but smile.
It almost reached my ears.
"Ahem."
She coughed and forced a smile on her face:
"What you said... is... ahem."
"Please, spare me, I really can't go back."
Liu Shishi's defense was broken.
She thought she had been wandering around for more than ten years.
I've seen enough scoundrels.
But now thinking back carefully, those scoundrels are nothing compared to the shamelessness of the man in front of me!
"snort."
Zeng Anmin sneered:
"I really can't understand what is there about me that is worthy of Senior Sister's concern."
Zeng Anmin looked up at Liu Shishi innocently and said:
"Last time you came to my house, you gave me a good thing to contact you."
"This time when you came to my house, you put on makeup and changed into new clothes."
“It’s really hard to understand.”
Zeng Anmin spread his hands and said:
"Senior Sister, you are an outstanding cultivator of the third rank of the Xuanzhen Division. Among all the cultivators in the world today, you must be in the top thirty, if not the top ten."
"And I am just a little Karami, a fifth-rank Confucian cultivator."
"In terms of status, a third-rank demon subduer from the Xuanzhen Division can absolutely run rampant in the Great Saint Dynasty as long as he doesn't violate any taboos."
"And I am just a fifth-rank county magistrate."
"so……"
Zeng Anmin shrugged helplessly and said:
"Apart from my selfless character and my handsome appearance, I really can't think of anything else about me that could attract Senior Sister to treat me like this."
…
"Hit, you win."
Liu Shishi admitted that she had encountered a tough opponent today.
She took a deep breath, and the fake smile disappeared from her face.
There was a solemn expression on her face. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Zeng Anmin's face:
"There's a mountain range in Qinghai Bay. Is your name on it?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Zeng Anmin was stunned for a moment.
Then a look of realization suddenly appeared on his face.
So that's why you came here!
I told you!
Zeng Anmin glanced at Liu Shishi:
"Which piece of land? How come I don't know?"
"Let's not beat around the bush." Liu Shishi saw that Zeng Anmin was still pretending to be stupid.
She glanced at Zeng Anmin calmly and said:
"You should know that there are spiritual mines in that land."
See her solemn eyes.
And a firm tone.
Zeng Anmin also knew that he could no longer pretend to be stupid today.
A look of realization appeared on his face:
"You mean that piece of land?"
"Now that I think about it, there is indeed such an industry."
After saying that, he stretched lazily and yawned.
"Well, since you already know, I won't keep you any longer. It's getting late, so I'm going to bed first."
After saying that, Zeng Anmin stood up from his chair.
Go straight towards your house.
"Buzz!"
Following a whistling sound.
Zeng Anmin steadied himself.
Because in front of him, a flying sword stood in the air.
Blocked his way.
See this flying sword.
Zeng Anmin frowned.
A cold look slowly appeared on his face.
He turned around calmly:
"What does Sister Liu Shi mean?"
There was a hint of hostility in his voice.
Liu Shishi stood up from her seat and walked slowly to Zeng Anmin:
"Let's be frank. We at the Xuanzhen Division want this piece of land."
Zeng Anmin sneered:
"If you want it, go ask the court for it, don't tell me."
Having said that, he turned and walked towards the house.
"Also, take good care of your flying sword from now on."
After saying this, Zeng Anmin's eyes showed coldness and he said:
"If you stand in front of me again...you will bear the consequences."
"Don't……"
Liu Shishi saw that Zeng Anmin was still heading towards the house.
She simply gritted her teeth.
After putting away the flying sword, his figure flashed lightly.
?
Zeng Anmin entered the house.
His body was a little stiff.
On his bed.
Liu Shishi lay there, blinking and sobbing at him, just looking at him.
Their eyes met.
"Playing rogue?!"
Zeng Anmin was so angry that he laughed.
This was the first time he had seen a woman like this.
He's acting like a scoundrel and ended up in his own bed!
"I really have no choice."
Liu Shishi saw Zeng Anmin's face turned a little ashen with anger.
She said weakly:
"Brother Quan Fu, Senior Sister is really suffering..."
As she spoke, she even choked up a little:
"You really don't understand how much it costs to train a third-grade demon-suppressing master every day."
"It's all my master's fault. He tricked me into entering the Tianshi Mansion to practice."
"God damn it...I regret it so much!"
"If I had listened to my family and practiced martial arts, I wouldn't have ended up like this..."
“Wuwuwu…”
As she was talking, Liu Shishi sat on Zeng Anmin's bed and started crying...
The crying...seemed a little loud.
"Young Master?!"
A voice came from outside the yard.
It was Qi Bo's voice: "What's going on in your room..."
There was shock and deep confusion in the voice.
?
Zeng Anmin's face turned green when he heard Qi Bo's voice.
He said to Qi Bo with an extremely ugly expression:
"It's okay! I'm ready for bed!"
As he spoke, he looked towards Liu Shishi and said coldly:
"Shut up!"
Oh my god!
Zeng Anmin didn't even dare to think about it.
If Dad knew that he heard a woman crying in his room at night...
Thinking of this, his scalp felt tingling.
Liu Shishi blinked at him.
Looking at him with an innocent face.
"I have no say in matters concerning the spiritual mine. It's not my property. I'm just a steward."
Zeng Anmin looked at her coldly and said:
"The real master is in the palace."
"In the palace?"
A gleam of brilliance flashed in Liu Shishi's eyes:
"who?"
"Don't ask me."
"Go find out for yourself."
Zeng Anmin looked at her coldly and said:
"From now on, you and I will not disturb each other."
"Brother Quan Fu, your words are too hurtful." Liu Shishi's accent changed.
A mouthful of Jiangnan soft and sticky accent...
