"Let go! Madam Wang, who do you think I am? Could I have any bad intentions towards you and your daughter?" Li Wuotan really didn't have such an idea. He just wanted to punish this vicious woman and at the same time see Xiao Yuyan's appearance to see what this most beautiful woman in Tianlong looked like and whether she was more charming than Li Qiu Shui.
Under Li Wuotan's cold gaze, Mrs. Wang dropped her hands in despair. Apparently, at first glance, she had decided that this was a lewd Taoist priest!
The two of them walked into the Langhuan Jade Cave and saw a pretty little girl who looked like a jade statue. After taking a look at her, Li Wutan nodded. She had a pure and unworldly temperament.
However, Li Wutan was more interested in the rows of martial arts secrets on the bookshelves. These were the essence of martial arts in the world and the crystallization of wisdom. Compared to beauties, these books were more attractive to him!
"Mother, who is this Taoist priest?" The little girl Wang Yuyan was shocked to see a stranger coming in. How could an outsider come in here, let alone a strange man?
You have to know the importance of Langhuan Jade Cave. This is the biggest secret of Mantuo Villa. Even my cousin Murong Fu is not allowed to come in. Why was this person allowed to come in?
There was always a hint of worry on Wang Yuyan's beautiful face, but now it was replaced by shock.
Li Wutan took a book “Five Tigers Breaking Door Swords” from the bookshelf and started reading. After hearing what Wang Yuyan said, he turned around and gave her a bright smile, saying: "Yuyan, I am your mother's friend. I came to your house as a guest to learn some Kung Fu. I will stay for a few days and then leave. You can do whatever you want. Remember to bring me food." But he sighed in his heart. This girl is very thoughtful and scheming!
After saying that, Li Wutan focused his mind on the secret book in front of him again. The pages kept turning with a rustling sound, and he was quickly absorbing the martial arts knowledge on it.
After hearing what the Taoist said, Wang Yuyan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked shy, with shame in her eyes. She was not used to the stranger in front of her calling her name.
Madam Wang heaved a sigh of relief, pulled Wang Yuyan over, and said to Li Wutian, "Master Li, please stay here and read! I will arrange for someone to bring you three meals a day, and I will also have the servants arrange a courtyard for you to rest."
"In that case, thank you very much, Madam Wang." Li Wuotian nodded at the two of them and said with a smile, then continued to immerse himself in the ocean of knowledge.
Seeing that Li Wutan was immersed in martial arts, Mrs. Wang carefully pulled Wang Yuyan outside, walking lightly, not daring to disturb the incompetent man in the slightest.
Watching the two beautiful figures leave, Li Wuotan shook his head and smiled bitterly. There was no point in talking to a wicked person like Madam Wang. Only by acting more vicious than her could such a woman be obedient.
How nice and obedient we are now!
For the next three days, Li Wutan stayed quietly in the Langhuan Jade Cave to read. Because of his bad reputation in the martial arts world, Mrs. Wang did not dare to have any evil intentions towards him. She prepared three sumptuous meals a day for him, provided him with a beautiful living environment, and had maids to take care of his daily life. These days were truly like those of a god.
The hostility brought by Li Wutan's killings in the past few days has dissipated a lot in this peaceful environment.
Even Mrs. Wang was not as afraid of Li Wutan when she saw him these past two days. Li Wutan seemed like a cheerful and gentle young man next door.
During these three days, Li Wutan did not slack off in his cultivation. He practiced the inheritance in the "Demon Codex" every day and learned hundreds of martial arts. His understanding of the realm of hardness and softness became more and more profound. The strength of his limbs could be perfectly connected to form a whole. His qi and blood were harmoniously coordinated, and he combined hardness and softness. Every move he made was made with all his strength. From then on, there was no difference between the lows and peaks in his body.
One day, while practicing, there were suddenly footsteps heard outside. The steps were disorderly and it was obvious that the people outside were a little panicked.
Li Wuotian frowned, put down the hidden weapon technique in his hand and placed it on the table. He stood up and looked outside. It was Wang Yuyan, Duan Yu, and two other pretty girls, who must be Ah Zhu and Ah Bi.
"Duan Yu, I didn't expect that you could escape from Jiumozhi?" After setting out from Dali, Li Wuotian rushed towards Wuxi in a straight line from the southwest. Along the way, there was no pause except killing. On the other hand, Jiumozhi took some time to recuperate from his injuries, and then forced Duan Yu to memorize the Six Meridians Divine Sword along the way, which delayed him again.
Finally, Jiumozhi and Duan Yu arrived in Wuxi two days later than Li Wutan. In Yanziwu, Jiumozhi was fooled by two little girls, Azhu and Abie, which gave Duan Yu a chance to escape.
After escaping from the tiger's den, they fell into the wolf's lair. Duan Yu, A'zhu and A'bi fled to Mantuo Villa, but were discovered by Mrs. Wang. When she asked Duan Yu's name, she became even more furious when she heard that his surname was Duan. She completely vented her anger on the three of them and was about to order her servants to bury them alive to make fertilizer. However, Wang Yuyan couldn't bear it and secretly released the three of them.
Thinking that Mrs. Wang's men were searching everywhere outside, Wang Yuyan could only take the three of them and flee into the Langhuan Jade Cave to hide.
Listening to the four people chattering about what had happened recently, Li Wutan shook his head and smiled bitterly. He almost forgot something important!
Chapter 16: Li Qingluo in Hesitation (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets)
How could you miss the drama of the internal strife of the Beggars' Sect in Xingzilin, outside the city of Wuxi?
Even a character like Li Wutan, who is both good and evil, has great respect for Xiao Feng. He really wants to meet this kind of hero.
Just then Duan Yu came and took them to see the fun!
"Since you have found me, I will naturally ensure that you are worry-free. Come with me to meet Madam Wang. I am just about to go out to meet a great hero, and I will take you to broaden your horizons along the way." Li Wuotan chuckled.
When these words were spoken, the four of them were overjoyed.
They are all young people who yearn for the world of martial arts. Now that the Taoist priest has stepped in to help them solve their troubles, they immediately want to watch the fun.
"It's great to be young!" Looking at the four chattering young people, Li Wutan sighed. He was too thoughtful and was destined not to live as freely as Duan Yu.
"Follow me." Soon the group walked out of the Langhuan Jade Cave under the leadership of Li Wuotian.
Leading the four people into the reception room of Mantuo Villa, Li Wutian smiled gently at Madam Wang, who looked livid, and said, "Qingluo, why are you so angry? Every grievance has its perpetrator, and Duan Yu has no grudge against you. You can settle the score with whoever you hate. If you are unable to do it, you can hire me to help you. I believe it will not be difficult to kill the person you can't forget in your heart."
This time, Li Wuotian called Li Qingluo by her name directly, which showed a hint of closeness. As for this Madam Wang, Li Wuotian liked to see her wanting to get angry but unable to.
Aren't you crazy? Aren't you arrogant?
I will make you unable to vent your anger and hold your fire in!
Hearing that Li Wutan wanted to kill the person she was obsessed with, Li Qingluo panicked and seemed to be worried and anxious. For a moment, she didn't know whether she wanted the man to die!
“Forget it, you take your time to think about this issue. When you’ve thought it through, you can ask me for help. It will be considered as settling the cause and effect of Langhuan Jade Cave.” Looking at Li Qingluo’s panicked appearance, which looked pitiful, Li Wuotan’s heart softened, but he did not force Li Qingluo to make a choice.
"Hmph, since Taoist Li said so, I won't bother with Duan Yu for the time being." Finally, Li Qingluo gritted her teeth and forced herself to swallow the anger.
As for whether to kill the ungrateful man, Li Qingluo had not thought it through yet.
At the same time, Li Qingluo looked at Li Wuotan with a complicated look. For many years, no one had called her Qingluo. How did this Taoist know her name?
Wang Yuyan stood behind Li Wutian, secretly looking at her mother and Li Wutian. What was the relationship between this Taoist and her mother? How did he know her mother's name?
Li Wutan was well aware of Wang Yuyan's actions behind him. He added: "I plan to go to Wuxi City for a stroll today and take Yuyan, Duan Yu, A'zhu and A'bie to see the world. Qingluo, you don't need to worry about their safety. The world is so big that no one can be my opponent, and no one can hurt others under my nose." His voice was calm, but the arrogance in his words was unmistakable.
Everyone present looked at Li Wutan again and again. Some agreed with what he said, some were shocked, and some were disdainful.
The one who agreed was naturally Duan Yu. He had witnessed the fight between Taoist Li and the Great Wheel King Jiumozhi with his own eyes. He had never seen anyone reach such a level of magical skills displayed by the two men, at least their Duan family was far inferior to them.
The ones who were shocked were Li Qingluo and her daughter. They had seen Li Wuotian's strength, but they never expected that this man was so ambitious that he actually declared that no one in the world could defeat him. Doesn't that mean he is the best in the world?
Number one in the world has always been a heavy title throughout all dynasties, a title that people in the martial arts world dream of but cannot obtain. There are many martial arts masters in the world today, among whom Murong in the South and Qiao Feng in the North are the most famous, but they are still far from being number one in the world, and no one dares to call himself invincible.
How dare the Taoist in front of me?
Li Qingluo looked at Li Wutan's confident demeanor, and a hint of redness crept up on her pretty face, which had turned pale with anger. She didn't know what she felt in her heart.
However, A-Bi and A-Zhu had never seen Li Wuotian's magical skills, so naturally they did not believe what the Taoist said. They thought that he was just boasting. Even the young man Murong Fu, whom they regarded as a god, did not dare to call himself the best in the world. What virtue and ability did this man have?
"Okay, but I hope Taoist Li will take good care of Yuyan." Li Qingluo sighed and said a little tiredly.
"Don't worry, Yuyan will follow me out. Who can hurt her? Who dares to hurt her?" Li Wuotan shook his head and chuckled. It seemed that his name was not loud enough!
After all, he only killed a few hundred young talents along the way, and the blood of the older generation of masters is still needed to make the world remember the name of the Incomprehensible Man!
Li Qingluo personally arranged for people to start a large ship to send Li Wutan and his party away.
Before leaving, Li Wutian whispered in Li Qingluo's ear: "Children of the Jianghu, martial arts are very important. There are countless martial arts in the Langhuan Jade Cave. Qingluo, you should work harder."
A slight heat came over her and Li Qingluo felt weak all over. Looking at Wufadao who turned around and left in a leisurely manner, her expression was quite complicated.
What kind of person is Li Wutan, the Taoist priest without a way of knowing?
Near noon, Li Wutan and others got off the boat and headed towards the distant Wuxi city.
Along the way, the four people around Li Wuotan were overjoyed, especially Wang Yuyan, who was curious about everything she saw. She had been restricted in Mantuo Villa by Li Qingluo and had few opportunities to go to the outside world.
At this moment, Wang Yuyan felt the beauty of the outside world. She was like a bird spreading its wings and flying, free and happy.
Li Wutan looked at these young people with a smile, but when he looked at Duan Yu, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. This guy kept circling around Wang Yuyan and now he has become a bootlicker. He is simply hopeless.
Once you enter the city, you will see people coming and going, it is very prosperous and has a different scenery than Dali.
As I walked forward, I suddenly smelled a fragrance. I followed the scent and turned a corner. I saw a restaurant standing in the street with three big golden words "Songhelou" written on its sign.
Although the signboard is old, the three golden characters are still shining, and the aroma of wine and food wafts from the restaurant.
"Master Li, let's go upstairs and eat something! We've been traveling for such a long time, so we should take a break." Duan Yu was being hunted everywhere, and he hadn't had a decent meal in the past two days. He was really hungry now.
"It's Songhe Tower? Interesting, let's go up and take a look." Li Wuotian revealed a smile. He wanted to see how the fortune of Duan Yu, the son of destiny, was and whether he could meet Xiao Feng. Li Wuotian was full of curiosity about this man and wanted to see for himself what kind of hero he was!
Chapter 17 Songhe Tower (asking for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets)
Li Wutan and his companions were dressed in luxurious clothes. Li Wutan's black Bagua Taoist robe went without saying. Duan Yu, as the prince of Dali, naturally had to dress well. Wang Yuyan was a lady from a wealthy family. The Wang family was a prominent family in the surrounding area, so she wore high-quality silk clothes. Even Murong Fu's two maids were dressed more gorgeously than the daughters of ordinary landlords.
This group of people are obviously the store owner’s favorite type of customers, rich and wealthy!
"Dear guests, please come in!" The waiter warmly welcomed Li Wuotan and the other four into Songhe Tower, with a respectful and kind look on his face, as if he would be more polite than meeting his own parents.
Li Wutan stood in the hall and looked around. There were seven or eight tables filled with diners, toasting and chatting, and the place was very noisy.
"Well, let's go to the second floor to dine. We'll serve the restaurant's signature dishes. Your money won't be wasted." Li Wutan said with a smile, in a kind manner, without a trace of the arrogance of a martial arts master.
"Okay! Sir, please go upstairs! I will definitely prepare a table of our Songhelou's best dishes for you." The waiter said happily, he was indeed a big customer.
"Tap Tap..."
Li Wutian led the four people upstairs, and they found a table near the window. Ah Bi habitually picked up the handkerchief and wiped the table again.
Li Wutan smiled at her, nodded, and said: "Miss A-Bi is indeed diligent. She is worthy of being Mr. Murong's right-hand man." Li Wutan praised her and naturally did not mention her identity as a maid. Even if the Murong family did not treat A-Zhu and A-Bi as outsiders, the status of a maid was always not respectable.
"Master Li, you are too kind. This is what I should do." Sure enough, Li Wuotian's praise made A Bi very happy.
Hearing the conversation between Li Wuotian and A-Bi, a big man sitting on the west seat turned around. His two cold and lightning-like eyes flashed across the faces of the five people twice, and finally stopped on Li Wuotian's face, with a hint of solemnity in his expression.
I saw that the man was of very tall stature, about thirty years old, wearing an old grey robe that was a little torn, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose and a wide mouth. He had a square face that looked quite weathered, and when he looked around, he was very imposing.
Li Wuotian smiled and nodded slightly to the big man. The man had an amazing aura, like a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Li Wuotian's spiritual consciousness vaguely sensed a hint of danger.
It seems that this person is Xiao Feng!
Li Wutan turned his head to look at Duan Yu who was diligently surrounding Wang Yuyan, and shook his head slightly. Why do this?
It is indeed beneficial to bring Duan Yu along. The treasures that should be found can be found, and the people who want to be found can also be met. This is the son of destiny.
It is a pity that this son of destiny failed to live up to God's expectations and became a bootlicker with no fighting spirit, wasting countless opportunities in vain.
On the big man's table there was a plate of cooked beef, a big bowl of soup, and two jugs of wine, and nothing else. It was obvious that he was very generous and relaxed even when eating and drinking.
The big man looked at everyone, and finally stared at Li Wuotian's face for twice, then turned his head and ate and drank by himself.
Soon, the waiter of Songhelou brought tableware and drinks to Li Wuotian and his friends, and also gave them a plate of peanuts.
Duan Yu talked diligently with Wang Yuyan, but he didn't know that the fairy sister in his heart ignored him completely. The fairy sister actually communicated with the silent Li Wuotian from time to time.
He was feeling depressed and drank a glass of wine. He was feeling lonely and bored and wanted to make some friends, so he called the waiter and pointed at the big man's back and said, "This gentleman's wine and food are all on me."
When the big man heard Duan Yu's instructions, he turned around, smiled, and nodded, but said nothing.
Li Wutian looked at Duan Yu and said with a smile: "You are imitating others to treat us to a drink. Do you have money?"
Duan Yu was abducted and had no valuables on him. When Li Wutan said this, his face turned red and the three women beside him covered their mouths and laughed.
Seeing the stunning Wang Yuyan also teasing him, Duan Yu's face flushed. He stood up suddenly and took off a jade pendant from his neck. The jade pendant was warm and smooth, and it was obviously a top-grade jade. Holding the jade pendant in his hand, Duan Yu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I don't have money. I still have a piece of top-grade jade on me. I'll treat you today. Let's get drunk!"
The big man sitting on the west seat turned around and looked at the jade pendant that Duan Yu took out. His eyes fixed. It was indeed top-grade jade. Duan Yu showed no reluctance at all. He was very free and natural, which made the big man admire him very much. He nodded at Duan Yu.
As they chatted, the waiter brought the dishes to the table one after another. Li Wuotian tasted them and found them delicious and tasty. The restaurant's reputation was well deserved and it was indeed a top-notch restaurant.
