Chapter 108 Talking about Heroes
The Grand Duchess, dressed in court attire, looked very excited. She stepped on scarlet roses and without moving, she suddenly came in front of Su Mengzhen. The fragrance of the flowers filled her face, making Su Mengzhen feel as if she had fallen into a sea of flowers.
The cold but gorgeous mother-of-pearl and gold-carved palace fan was pressed against Su Meng's jaw. An irresistible force forced him to raise his head, and he met a pair of eyes that were redder than blood and brighter than gems.
The internal energy that had circulated in the body for several cycles seemed to have stagnated, like a drop in the ocean, and could not be mobilized at all.
The cold sweat on his forehead was gently wiped away by fingers wrapped in dark red velvet gloves. The description was ambiguous, but it really did not make people feel the slightest bit of romantic feelings.
A person locked by these eyes is like a prey with broken limbs, without any ability to resist. Just standing up with a straight back requires all of his strength and willpower.
At this moment, Su Mengzhen was completely certain that the woman in front of him, who was so beautiful that she did not look like an ordinary person, was indeed... not a human.
There is no such martial arts in the world, let alone such a person.
There was only one problem now—
"…Your Excellency."
Su Mengzhen almost gritted his teeth and squeezed these two words out of his throat.
Before he could finish his words, a pair of slender fingers wrapped in dark red velvet gloves touched his lips lightly with even lighter force. The girl, who was like a spring flower and an autumn moon, blinked her left eye at him affectionately, and the rose blooming at the corner of her eye seemed to come alive immediately.
"Tsk."
Her fingers were cold, and her breath was cold too. There was no human warmth in her, only an icy fragrance, as if it came from a cluster of flowers that could only bloom in the snow.
"I know what you want to ask."
The human mind is easy to guess, the more powerful the vampire is, the better they can see through people's hearts, so they particularly like people with clear minds and simple thoughts.
Su Mengzhen...is not a man of few ideas, but he is definitely not despicable at all.
Such people are also very likable.
Grand Duchess Rose likes people like this. She likes all good and energetic children. This is a liking that comes from appreciation, not a frivolous liking for pets.
Based on this love, she has enough patience to explain human doubts.
"You woke me up."
The scarlet beauty took back the mother-of-pearl fan engraved with gold that was stuck to Su Meng's chin, with a lazy smile in her tone. Her back was always straight, which was the natural posture of a superior.
Di Fei was surprised to feel her eyes on him. Instead of the coldness and anger he had expected, there was a kind of high spirits and profound meaning in her eyes.
Master Di breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about his brothers behind him dying here.
Before he could put this thought into practice, a hand wearing a dark red velvet glove stretched out into Di Fei's sight.
He was suddenly startled, but it was too late to step back, as the hand had already grabbed his neck, preventing him from straightening up.
Very light, like caressing a fragile flower.
Even though his life and death were in the hands of others, Di Fei's frightened heart suddenly calmed down.
He heard the person holding his neck sigh softly: "Such a beautiful child, how can you bow your head?"
Before he could finish his words, the five fingers that were strangling his neck suddenly tightened.
With a click, a short, blunt pain instantly pierced Di Fei's frightened nerves. Sweat dripped down his chin and froze into small ice beads just before it soaked into the velvet gloves. Then, in the blink of an eye, it turned into powder and disappeared.
The scarlet beauty said in a cheerful tone: "Okay, raise your head, good boy."
Di Fei blinked in surprise, seemingly unable to understand the meaning of this sentence.
After a long while, he tentatively raised his head. This action was very unfamiliar to him as he hadn't done it for such a long time. In the short time when he raised his head, even people who didn't know him could see his unfamiliarity and disbelief.
…He was able to lift his head.
He saw the shock in Su Mengzhen's eyes, and also saw Yang Wuxie's look as if he had seen a ghost, and...
I really don't know how to describe the beauty in front of me.
This is really...
The dragon lowered his head and suddenly felt a strong sense of shame in his heart.
There is no reward without merit, not to mention that it was indeed he who brought his brothers to disturb this person's peace.
"It doesn't matter."
The scarlet beauty easily understood what he had not yet said. She touched his face with the hand that had so easily healed his neck. It was not the kind of intimacy that made people feel disgusted, but the intimacy that an elder shows to a younger person.
She said, "I know you didn't come here voluntarily. A good kid like you wouldn't do such a thing."
Yes, how could the dragon Di Feijing do such a heinous thing as digging up people's graves?
No one knew what was going through Di Feijing's mind when he saw the coffin; no one knew how many bloody marks he had left on his palms when he made the decision to take the coffin away.
At this moment, all the words were stuck in his throat, and countless emotions were churning in his heart. Di Fei's eyes were slightly red in surprise.
"Your Excellency's kindness will be forever in my memory!"
He bowed his hands to the scarlet beauty in front of him, who had a faint but gentle smile, and saluted sincerely and seriously. If he was asked to give his life in return at this moment, he would be willing to do so.
But why would Tarona want his life? She always did things according to her own heart and as long as she was happy, except when she was carrying out a mission, she would think about how to earn more money.
However, it is always a happier thing to be sincerely appreciated by others for doing good things, so the witch was in a better mood.
After reading the information, she knew why she was transported from the desert to the Central Plains. To be more precise, she guessed it after seeing that familiar name.
She didn't make things difficult for these people. They had no choice, so it was completely understandable.
She would not go to the Six and a Half Minutes Class. There was no lucky child there who could help her gain some experience. But she could leave a message for Di Feijing to take back: "Tell the person who forced you that he will get what he wants."
The witch smiled in a good mood, but her laughter was full of wickedness, making these words sound more like a curse.
Immortality! Isn’t death also a kind of immortality?
The age on the tombstone was forever frozen at the moment when the breath died, following the years, accompanying the stars and the moon, until this history was forgotten, until the hard tombstone was destroyed by time.
Well, if Cai Jing could still leave behind a tombstone.
Su Mengzhen and Di Feijing were both rare smart people in the world. They could naturally smell a strong smell of blood from these words. For a moment, both of them felt good.
He clearly distinguished right from wrong, and never became angry at the six and a half people in the hall who were controlled by others...
Su Mengzhen felt half relieved.
But it turned out that he let go too early.
The scarlet beauty who knew right from wrong turned around and looked at him, her lips curved upwards. She said to him in a pleasant and unquestionable tone: "I want to live with you. Do you have any opinions?"
Su Mengzhen:……
Di Fei gave him a helpless look in surprise.
This is not asking for his opinion, it is just telling him.
What can Sumeng pillow do?
He could only agree.
Thus, the surprising cooperation between him and Di Fei came to an end quickly in a weird way.
I don’t know whether the ending should be cause for celebration or shedding tears of sympathy. Cai Jing didn’t get what he wanted, because what he wanted was to go to the Jinfengxiyu Tower himself.
…
The host brought back a great beauty.
The news spread quickly throughout the Jinfengxiyu Building. Countless people asked curiously, some asking why the owner brought the person back, and some asking how beautiful this beauty was to be called a great beauty.
Without exception, there is no answer.
The beautiful lady moved into the OP's house. Apart from the OP and Manager Yang, no one else could see the beautiful lady.
Living in the main building?
Everyone couldn't help but gasp. Could they understand that... that person was the OP's confidante?
The old men in the building knocked on them one by one, scolding them for having no serious ideas in their heads. The owner of the building was engaged to Miss Lei Chun from Liufenbantang. They had a good relationship and were going to be married soon. They couldn't let such a big event be affected by some false rumors at this time.
The man who was hit on the head looked a little ashamed and a little unconvinced: "Then tell me, why did that person receive such kindness from the host?"
Not only did she live in the owner's house, but she was also served by the butler Yang, who was very respectful and treated her better than the owner of the house.
If not a confidante, then what is it?
The old man glanced at them mysteriously and said, "Then there is only one answer."
Several people looked over with bated breath.
The old man smiled with satisfaction and said, "That person is a senior in the martial arts world that all the OP should respect!"
A person with great martial arts skills can naturally have a good appearance. The OP learned from Hongxiu Shenni, and that person might be Hongxiu Shenni's friend. He came into the world and came to be his friend's apprentice. What's wrong with the OP being respectful and respectful?
That's what you should do!
Having such a senior here, even if only for a period of time, is a great thing for Jinfengxiyulou!
When they heard this, they immediately thought it made sense, and the person who had previously said that the girl was the OP's confidante also lowered her head in shame.
Naturally, these words quickly reached Su Mengzhen's ears, and he was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
How could this person be his predecessor? He was clearly a big Buddha who should not be provoked and he did not know how to treat him.
The headquarters of Jinfengxiyu Tower is located in Tianquan Mountain. Looking around, you can see four buildings in green, red, yellow and white, and a seven-story stone tower guarding the center.
This seven-story stone tower is Su Mengzhen's residence. Usually only a very small number of people can enter, and they are all the key figures in the Golden Wind and Rain Tower.
In addition, Su Mengzhen was ill, and those who could enter and exit the seven-story stone tower were not a big deal, so they would not easily disturb his rest. The only one who accompanied him all year round was Yang Wuxie.
...Oh, now add this one.
Thanks to this person, Su Mengzhen also experienced the legendary Five Ghosts Moving Technique. After a brief flash before his eyes, he and Wuxie returned to the building.
Even Zhu Xiaoyao who was hiding in the woods was not forgotten. She moved from the branch to another place, sat on the corridor with her quiver slung across her body, looking confused.
Fortunately, his tower was flat and not many people came in and out, otherwise this trick of resurrecting a living person would have scared people to death.
The guest is not like a guest, but more like a host than Su Mengzhen, the host.
The scarlet beauty held a fan in one hand and gracefully lifted her grand skirt with the other, and toured the seven-story stone tower as if inspecting her own territory.
Su Mengzhen and Yang Wuxie looked at each other, then signaled Zhu Xiaoyao that she could leave.
The three of them had all been frightened today and now they couldn't refuse, so they decided to take it easy and treat him as an unusual guest.
...But even though I thought this, the tension in my heart didn't ease much.
After Zhu Xiaoyao left, Yang Wuxie, who had received the order, also retreated with trembling legs, leaving Su Mengzhen alone living under the same roof with this inhuman being.
He covered his mouth and coughed twice, then with a smile on his face, he walked forward with his sick body and introduced his own layout to the scarlet beauty.
This is undoubtedly a superior, and an extremely powerful one.
Su Mengzhen does have this kind of vision.
He had met the current emperor before, and to be honest, I think it is disrespectful to say that the emperor is far inferior to this one in terms of demeanor and majesty.
Su Mengzhen couldn't help but think, if the emperor of the Song Dynasty could have half of this person's bearing and majesty, could the current storm be turned into a stable state?
Just as he had this thought, the scarlet beauty walking in front of him suddenly turned around and looked at him with a subtle look.
Su Mengzhen blinked, his heart beating fast. Why was she looking at him like that? Did he say something wrong?
Putting her together with that bastard Zhao Ji who deserved to be killed a thousand times...
Tarona was disgusted.
But when she looked at Su Mengzhen's pale and weak (?) face, the little anger in her heart was extinguished in an instant.
Forget it, it’s all Zhao Ji’s fault. What does it have to do with Su Mengzhen, who is also devoted to the country?
He just wants to have a wise king, what's wrong with that?
No, it's all Zhao Ji's fault.
Damn Zhao Ji!
I will give him a set of Ancestors Return to Life package tonight!
