Chapter 478
478 You have to praise me
“Baby, why aren’t you eating? It’s a very precious ingredient in our Jinque Kingdom.”
“Baby, I’ll take a break before eating.”
After the conversation just now, everyone was satisfied. Empress Ming Yan ordered the palace servants to remove that table of food and wine and replace it with a new one.
The little koi fish frowned, a little unhappy.
The dishes just now were quite delicious, but why were the new ones all strange? oysters, sea cucumber, leeks, Chinese yam, and steamed buns?
Wang longqi looked at Yu Qi ‘an with sympathy.
Old abbey Dean, the Empress wants you dead.
Yu Qi ‘an replied with a calm expression.
It was just a small scene, but it was nothing.
Just as the host and the guest were enjoying themselves, a Palace servant suddenly rushed forward and said, ” “Your Majesty, I have something to report.”
Empress Ming Yan glared at him and said,”Just say it, we’re not outsiders.”
The palace servant lowered his head and said,”the preceptor has sent news that there is a riot at the Golden pool of fate. He can’t suppress it and needs the Empress to take charge of the place.”
When Empress Ming Yan heard this, her brows furrowed and she said worriedly, ” “Bao, the Golden pool of fate is an important place for our Jinque Kingdom. We can’t lose it. Wait here for a moment, I’ll be back soon.”
“Bao, just be careful,” Yu Qi ‘an nodded.
With that, Empress Ming Yan hurriedly left the palace with her men.
Wang longqi, who had stayed in his original place, saw that the palace servants on both sides were far away, so he went to Yu Qi ‘an and said with respect, ” “Temple head Yu, you’re really amazing. You managed to fool the Empress with just a few words. Is it too late for me to acknowledge you as my master now?”
“Hmph, who’s lying?” The old Daoist snorted coldly and said, ” you don’t have to acknowledge me as your master. I’ll only teach you one thing. When you interact with others, remember to treat them with sincerity. You can’t lie to others. The most important thing between a man and a woman is sincerity.”
Wang longqi immediately showed an expression of “f * ck you” and said, ” “Do I look like an idiot to you, sect leader Yu? Then what you said just now, could it be that you were sincere?”
“Naturally, I’m sincere.” Yu Qi ‘an looked calm. when I was young, I traveled all over the country. People gave me the nickname’ honest and reliable young man’. I never lie.
Honest and reliable Yu Qi ‘an?
Wang longqi looked at Yu Qi ‘an and said, ” “If you’re honest, then I’m a Saint,”
“Sigh, you still don’t understand.” Yu Qi ‘an shook his head and said, ” no one is a fool. Everyone can feel whether you’re lying or not. If he didn’t say it from the heart, how could he move others? However, Yingluo’s life is vast, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future?”
ah, Qianqian. Wang longqi nodded, ” you mean Qianqian made a promise sincerely first and then changed her mind later. But isn’t that still a lie? ”
there’s a fundamental difference. a person has said what he truly felt at every stage of his life, ” Yu Qi ‘an said. can you say that he is wrong? ”
Oh! Wang longqi suddenly realized.
“The only thing that doesn’t change in the world is that people are fickle,” the old Daoist said slowly.
Wang longqi was enlightened and felt that his whole body had been sublimated. He muttered, ” “I’m just passing through the human world, love has a time limit,”
Yu Qi ‘an smiled and said, ” “Good,”
As they were talking, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the sky, and a black smoke quickly swept over.
“What’s going on?” Wang longqi quivered and raised his head.
Yu Qi ‘an took a bite of the chives in his bowl, wiped his mouth, and continued, ” “If nothing unexpected happens, I’m afraid something will happen to this dense demonic Qi.”
……
“As expected, it’s a demon who’s trying to catch people.”
Du Lanke said in a low voice as he looked up at the stars in the sky.
“According to what the sand sculpture spirit said, there aren’t many demons that dare to capture living people in these hundreds of miles of yellow sand. If it’s really that group of demons from yellow sand Cave, I hope I can see master and the others.” Li Chu replied.
“Don’t worry, it’ll definitely work.” the little koi can still grow, ” du Lanke said. Grandmaster’s meat is old and dry. Young master Qi will be eaten first. If there aren’t many monsters in the cave, one seventh young master can eat for at least three days, right?”
Li Chu was not as optimistic as he was. He shook his head. “We’ll see when we get there.”
“What are you two mumbling about?” A sharp voice came from the front.
It turned out that the one walking at the front of the group was a half-human, half-fox demon. It seemed to be a sand fox spirit. It walked with its head in the front, and behind it were a few other monsters, carrying two people who were tied up.
They were Li Chu and du Lanke, both wearing Taoist robes.
When they saw the demonic aura coming at them, the two of them quickly gave up resisting and were carried back by these demonic creatures. They were now rushing back to the demon cave.
Truth be told, Li Chu and dulanc were even more anxious.
If he wasn’t afraid of exposing his cultivation, Li Chu really wanted to ride his flying sword and carry these demons to their yellow sand Cave.
Du Lanke answered, ” “It’s nothing. We’re both on the verge of death, so it’s inevitable that we’re scared. Isn’t it normal to mumble?”
“That’s right, we’re afraid.” Li Chu replied indifferently.
“Ha.” The sand fox spirit turned around and sneered. you’re already scared? there’ll be even scarier things to come.
Although it felt that something was wrong, it didn’t seem to be intelligent enough to figure out what was wrong.
Just like that, they made a series of strange turns and arrived behind a hidden sand dune.
Then, the sand fox spirit shouted at the sand dune, ” sesame, open the door!
Then, the sand dune in front of them rumbled, and a hole covered by quicksand really opened up!
Li Chu pondered. So there’s a chant?
It was a little magical.
The sand fox spirit led the group into the yellow sand Cave and said to the door, ” “It’s been hard on you, sesame. You’ve been opening the door here everyday.”
Behind the door, a skinny, pockmarked demon nodded. hey, it’s nothing. You guys go out all day to catch people and bring them back for your brothers to eat. That’s the real hard work!
Oh, so the Guard’s name is sesame?
After entering the cave, the path inside was more complicated than the one above. The Demon King in the yellow sand Cave was really cautious. If it were not for the demonic creatures in the cave leading the way, it would be difficult to catch them from under the yellow sand, no matter how high their cultivation was.
Just like that, after walking for half a day, they finally arrived at the depths of yellow sand Cave, which was the cave abodes of the great kings Gold hook and silver hook.
The king of the Golden hook was sitting on a Tiger-skin chair, frowning.
“My King, my King!” The sand fox spirit laughed. Don’t be sad, we’ve caught two living people for you! Fry, fry, fry, stew, let’s have a good appetite.”
The king of the Golden hook glanced at the two Taoists that were thrown to the ground. Just as he was about to wave his hand for the servants to clean up, his gaze suddenly froze.
Something was wrong.
Something was very wrong.
He looked at Li Chu’s face carefully and teased the young Taoist. He was too handsome.
He was frighteningly handsome.
Because in the legends, the little Daoist who wreaked havoc in the northern lands and wiped out the Golden State with a single sword strike had an evaluation of him being extremely handsome.
Previously, the Golden hook King thought that it was a little ridiculous. He could not think of what kind of appearance could be described as extremely handsome.
However, the moment he saw the little Daoist, he suddenly understood.
“That little Daoist Yingluo, what’s your name?” The Golden hook King’s voice trembled slightly.
“Li Chu.”
“Hehe, Li Chu.” The king of the Golden hook wiped his sweat, ” it can’t be such a coincidence. Think about it carefully, is your name really Li Chu? ”
Li Chu paused for a moment and thought about it carefully. Then, he nodded and said, ” “It’s true.”
Plop!
Before he could finish his sentence, the Golden hook King kneeled down heavily from his Tiger-skin chair.
“Little Daoist priest, what brings you here today?” He asked with a sobbing tone.
There were many Taoist priests in the world, and there were many called Li Chu, but there were not many who were as handsome as him. With so many points right, who else could it be but Li Chu?
Li Chu stood up from the ground and replied indifferently, ” “It’s the monsters under your command who caught me.”
stop fooling around, sob sob! the Golden hook King pulled a long face, ” with your cultivation level, if you don’t want to come over, which little demon can catch you? ”
Seeing that the other party had confirmed his identity with a single glance, Li Chu knew that it was useless to pretend anymore. She thought to herself that she had to think of a way to avoid being recognized so quickly next time.
“My master and a few friends were taken away by a demon from the city the day before yesterday. Was it your yellow sand Cave?” he asked.
“No, definitely not!”
No matter how stupid the king of the Golden hook was, he knew that he had to deny it now. He shook his head and said, ” we only occasionally catch a few people who are alone in the desert. How would we dare to go into the city to catch them? ”
As soon as he denied it, he heard a burst of laughter from the other end of the cave.
“Big brother! A happy event was coming! You’ll never be able to guess what just happened, Yingluo.”
The sound of the silver hook King’s footsteps and laughter could be heard from afar.
“You have to praise me. I have captured the old Taoist back!”
