Chapter 25 How to Coax
Using his own words to counterattack him was a beautiful move.
Shen Yu had nothing to say.
Gao Ling was a smart guy and understood some of the meaning.
He pulled Shen Yu aside and advised, "Did you have a quarrel with her? She's just a little girl, why are you arguing with her? Show some magnanimity like a general and try to appease her. Our business is more important. We have to get the things out before dawn. Otherwise, there will be too many people around and there might be something unexpected."
Shen Yu understood this principle.
He frowned and asked hesitantly, "How do I coax you?"
Gao Ling: “?”
Shen Yu coughed awkwardly, "How do you coax a girl?"
Gao Ling widened his eyes, as if he had asked an extremely terrifying question.
If you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with it.
They knew each other well. Gao Ling knew that this tall and strong guy looked intimidating, but in fact he had never gotten along well with girls.
Gao Ling sighed and decided to help his brother.
"As for coaxing a girl, it's actually not that difficult. Either give her something she likes, or say something she likes, and then be humble and submissive..."
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows, "Humble yourself and be humble?"
Gao Ling nodded, "Yes. Hey, facing a girl, it's not like fighting a war outside. Do you have to win? It's not shameful to pretend to be a grandson in front of a woman occasionally. If you don't believe me, ask, isn't this how the brothers go home?"
Perhaps because no one had ever told him this before, Shen Yu's ideas were suddenly impacted like never before.
"Pretending to be a grandson?" Shen Yu was completely unconvinced. "When you go home and spend time with your wife, are you pretending to be a grandson in front of her?"
Gao Ling: “…”
Do you have to show your wisdom and state this inference?
He told his brother the truth from the bottom of his heart, but his brother ruthlessly stabbed him in the stomach!
Gao Ling didn't say anything, turned around and stepped aside.
He doesn't care about this shit anymore.
Shen Yu stood there in a daze for a long time, and all the brothers were still waiting for him to give orders.
He glanced at Gao Ling, who turned his head away and looked like he didn't care about anything else, and then looked at Wen Wan, who looked like a villain who had succeeded.
"Cao!"
He spat at the national treasure, gritted his teeth and walked up to Wen Wan.
He lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, "Have you forgotten the poison I gave you last time? Believe it or not, I won't give you the antidote and let you die from the poison directly."
He is a great general, and he can't pretend to be a grandson at all.
Wen Wan thought he came here to say something nice, but in the end, this is it?
She sneered, "I don't believe it."
Shen Yu was suddenly surprised, "You think I don't dare?"
Wen Wan raised her smug smile again, "I wasn't poisoned at all, how could I die from the poison? Stop trying to scare me, it won't work."
"How, how do you know?" This was really beyond Shen Yu's expectations.
He was puzzled as to where the flaw was.
Wen Wan was so amused to see that he looked quite frightened.
"First, last time I had a stomachache, the doctor came to see me, but he couldn't see any signs of poisoning. No matter how strong the poison is, it's impossible for it to leave no trace in the body."
"Secondly, how could a soldier who cares about the people use such dirty tactics against them? I am a law-abiding citizen."
What she said was well-reasoned. After listening to it, Shen Yu was silent at first, and then he was stunned.
Shen Yu: "Soldiers who care for the people?"
It turned out that she believed in his character so much, and the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated.
The corners of Shen Yu's mouth rose, and the gloom was swept away.
Wen Wan: “…”
I accidentally let it slip.
Shen Yu was in a good mood, so his tone softened.
"Since you've guessed it, I won't hide it from you. What I gave you that day was just a pill to replenish qi and blood. It's not only non-toxic, but also very beneficial to your body."
Wen Wan looked as if she really had so many expressions.
Shen Yu: "Then...what do you want in exchange for helping us open the tomb?"
Wen Wan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I haven't thought of it yet, so you owe me a wish first. When I think of it, you can help me fulfill it, how about that?"
Shen Yu was stunned. "If your wish is not to commit a crime or harm the interests of our Great Duan Dynasty, I can agree to it."
"make a deal!"
Wen Wan achieved her goal and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Now Tian can be considered a runaway concubine. If she is really caught by people from the general's mansion in the future, Captain Zhou is also a subordinate of General Shen, so he can at least speak for her.
With one more life-saving device, Wen Wan squatted on the ground with peace of mind and began to fiddle with the bricks in the Bagua stone formation.
Everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on her.
Gao Ling stood beside Shen Yu and nudged him with his elbow.
"Is she really as capable as you say? She's under twenty, right?"
Gao Ling was a little unconvinced. "Do you remember the Feng Shui master we found last time? Even such a famous master couldn't find the ancient tomb, but she found it just by taking a casual look?"
Shen Yu glanced at Tian with a very calm tone.
“I didn’t believe it at first.”
"At the beginning? You mean you believe it now?" Gao Ling was dumbfounded.
Shen Yu hummed in a rough voice, "Just wait and see."
Gao Ling was skeptical and watched Wen Wan's every move intently.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt... there was nothing special about it.
Isn’t it just moving the bricks aside? Anyone with hands can do this job, right?
He was about to say something sarcastic when he suddenly heard a crackling sound.
It was like something was shattered.
And the sound comes from underground.
Wen Wan stood up, clapped her hands, and then ran happily to Shen Yu to ask for credit.
“It’s open.”
Shen Yu's expression remained unchanged, but Gao Ling didn't understand and started asking questions directly.
"Where is the door?..."
When the word "呢" fell, the original Bagua stone formation suddenly collapsed.
The dust filled the air, temporarily blocking everyone's curious sight.
A one-person-wide passage appeared in the middle of the Bagua stone formation. The pitch-black passage extended downward, and no one knew what was at the end of the passage.
Gao Ling swallowed in shock, and when he looked at Wen Wan again, there was an extra look of incredible admiration in his eyes.
Shen Yu had already seen her abilities, so he could accept it calmly.
"Leave one team to guard, and the rest of you grab your weapons and follow me down."
Shen Yu drew the soft sword from his waist, hesitated for a moment, turned around and held Wen Wan's wrist.
"Follow me closely."
Wen Wan curled her lips, "Uh... do I have to go in?"
Shen Yu paused, as if he was seriously considering this question.
Then he released her wrist and took out the jeweled dagger.
"Didn't you want this dagger last time? Now I give it to you."
Wen Wan's eyes widened, "Really?"
She had been pestering him for a long time that time, but he refused to give in. Now he just gave it to her like that?
