Chapter 282 Tell the Truth
Jiang Lisheng walked out of her residence leisurely and was about to turn left when a man came out from the door on the right and called her.
Jiang Lisheng turned his head to look at his uncle-master and greeted him with a smile, "Hello, Uncle-master Li."
Li Shuming looked at her and saw that she had had enough sleep and was full of energy, unlike when he saw her three days ago, when she looked exhausted. "Come with me."
Jiang Lisheng had no choice but to give up the idea of going to find Wei Qinglan to visit Jin Wangchou. He turned right and followed Li Shuming into his residence.
Wang Yuqing was also in Li Shuming's yard, sitting at a stone table under a tree. Apparently, when she came out, the two were talking. Only when they noticed her movement did Li Shuming come out and call her.
She also greeted Wang Yuqing with a smile, "Hello, Uncle Wang, you and Uncle Li have not yet achieved cultivation, how did you know that I woke up?"
"I heard some noise next door, and it seemed like you were talking to your pet, so Senior Brother Li went out to take a look, and it turned out to be you." Wang Yuqing said.
Jiang Lisheng walked over with a smile and sat at the table with the two of them. "The two uncles are still so sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. I believe they have returned to Qingxu and taken a dip in the Canglan Pool. Perhaps they will be able to recover their cultivation in no time."
“Canglan Pool can save lives and replace spiritual roots, but it cannot restore cultivation.” Wang Yuqing said.
"If Canglan Pool doesn't work, there will always be other ways." Although Jiang Lisheng felt sorry for their cultivation, she didn't think there was no chance. She had been struggling for so many years, and her spiritual power was sometimes there and sometimes not, but she was still living well, wasn't it? It's no big deal.
"You are such a careless girl." Wang Yuqing scolded, "From childhood to adulthood, I have never seen you get anxious for any reason."
Jiang Lisheng thought, for Senior Brother Wei, she had gone through countless dangerous situations in the Qishan Secret Realm, and was so worried about him when he was injured and on the verge of death.
Li Shuming asked her, "Let me ask you, what's going on between you and Wei Qinglan?"
Jiang Lisheng smiled playfully, "Uncle Li, what's the matter with you asking? What could have happened between me and Brother Wei? We were just traveling together, and by some strange coincidence, I saved you."
Li Shuming's face tightened, "Stop playing dumb and tell me the truth."
Jiang Lisheng saw that his face was really tense, and his scalp suddenly tingled, "Uncle Li, please don't be so serious."
"Three days ago, I sent a message to the sect. Your Uncle Ning and Uncle Yin both asked me to interrogate you severely. They said that you could open Wei Qinglan's storage ring at will. And now, you and Wei Qinglan live in the same courtyard. Logically, you should live with us. Even in the world of immortal cultivation, there are differences between men and women..."
"Hey, Uncle Li, you and Uncle Wang also live in the same courtyard. We are just senior brothers and sisters, living together makes it easier to take care of each other." Jiang Lisheng refused to admit it, "Didn't you hear what Senior Brother Wei said? He was asked by my master to take special care of me."
"Don't tell me that." Li Shuming said, "We are all from Qingxu. We live in the same courtyard so that we can take care of each other. But you and Wei Qinglan, one is Kunlun and the other is Qingxu. Don't think I'm easy to fool."
His eyes were sharp. "If you don't tell the truth, believe it or not, even though we are half useless, we still have ways to deal with you."
"What method?" Jiang Lisheng didn't believe that he had any method now. The storage ring on his body had been taken away, and he was left with only a tattered robe, and he didn't even have the magic weapon in her hand.
Disbelief was clearly written on her face.
Li Shuming was immediately furious, "You..."
Wang Yuqing held Li Shuming down, looked at Jiang Lisheng, and said sternly, "Girl, do you know what others will say about you if your involvement with Wei Qinglan gets out? And the people from Kunlun."
"I haven't been involved with him in these years, but people still talk about him a lot. Kunlun's three uncles are all very friendly to me." Jiang Lisheng decided to hold on to the end and refused to say anything.
Wang Yuqing choked, "But what about Sect Master Qin of Kunlun? He is in seclusion now. When he comes out, if he knows that you are entangled with Wei Qinglan, how stubborn are you? The Sect Master sent you to Kunlun to learn, and he owes you a favor. Now if you do something inappropriate again, do you think the Sect Master will still have face? How should he explain to Sect Master Qin? The Sect Master has been cleaning up your butt for many years. We are family, so it's easy to say anything, but do you want him to clean up your butt in Kunlun?"
Jiang Lisheng suddenly became dispirited. She was not stubborn. She didn't know whether her master was stubborn or not when facing Sect Master Qin. But she always wanted to save face.
Seeing that she was silent, Wang Yuqing softened her tone and said, "Tell us the truth."
Jiang Lisheng could only whisper with a guilty conscience: "Senior Brother Wei said he wanted to marry me, and I agreed."
"What?" Li Shuming stood up suddenly.
Wang Yuqing was also shocked.
They thought that the two of them were just entangled, but they never thought that they would get married? How long has it been?
Jiang Lisheng looked guilty. "In Kunlun, I was confused while practicing flying swords and accidentally entered the forbidden area. Senior Brother Wei saved me from Uncle Master Qi. In Kushan, my formation inheritance failed, and he saved me again. Later, in the secret realm, he saved me several times... He, he said that he should repay the favor of saving my life with his body."
Li Shuming: “…”
Wang Yuqing: “…”
What a life-saving favor! I should repay it with my life.
Jiang Lisheng felt even more guilty when he saw the two people's shocked expressions. "Of course, I, I also saved him twice. Once was in Kunlun, his soul palace was injured and I healed it for him. Another time was in the secret realm, when he suffered a lightning tribulation in his Nascent Soul stage and I blocked the lightning tribulation for him..."
"Doesn't this cancel it out? Why do you still need to pledge yourself to me?" Li Shuming immediately grasped the point.
Jiang Lisheng felt even more guilty. "Anyway, he said that for saving my life, I should repay him with my body. Either he promised me, or I promised him. It can't cancel it out. He even gave the betrothal gift to my master in advance."
The two were even more shocked and said in unison: "You said the patriarch accepted his betrothal gift?"
"Yes." Jiang Lisheng nodded. "It was during my trip to Yunshan City. I only found out about it later. My master told me it was a thank-you gift. I told him not to accept it, but my master never returned it. Senior Brother Wei said it was a betrothal gift. Now my master is in seclusion."
They both: “…”
This is really...
For a moment, they didn't know whether to say that Wei Qinglan was quick or whether he understood what he was doing. What was the meaning of pledge of one's body? If everyone pledged their bodies, then they, the monks, had spent so many years fighting demons and defending the Way, helping the poor and the needy, saving others and themselves, both men and women, would anyone pledge their bodies?
Li Shuming asked: "You didn't lie?"
Jiang Lisheng was immediately dissatisfied, "Uncle Li, you can question my ability, but you can't question my character. I never tell lies."
Li Shuming was speechless.
Wang Yuqing also felt that this little girl had never told lies since she was a child. After all, there was no need for her to tell lies. She always admitted it when she got into trouble, except for the big trouble of being punished to go to Kunlun. She did not admit it, and later it was proved that it was not her fault.
