Chapter 120: Something Odd

"What's wrong?" Lin Mengyao frowned in surprise, "What do you mean?"

Hearing this, Su Mei had a look of doubt on her face: "According to your instructions, we have successively investigated all the literati in Maicheng and even the surrounding areas. There are thirteen literati hiding here. These thirteen people, There are twelve people who live in the alleys, their lives are ordinary, they never lose their talents, and only when they return home and stay behind closed doors, they will dance and write at home."

"Twelve people, what about the other one?" Lin Mengyao asked curiously.

"Another..." Mentioning this person, Su Mei's expression suddenly became heavy: "His name is Liu Yan, and he is nicknamed by the neighbors as a poor boy who can read and speak. The weird poems that rhyme made everyone laugh at him, but he seemed completely indifferent to the gossip that mocked him, just like his name, he was unique."

"Doing nothing all the time?" Tang Qin took the conversation and asked in a low voice: "Then he is rich?"

Su Mei shook her head: "On the contrary, just like the poor boy everyone described, this nerd is dressed in rags all year round, his house is barren, and the walls and doors are slanted."

"He's still doing nothing like this, does he have to live by eating dirt!" Tang Qin was speechless, this kind of scholar who didn't know how to make progress, really read sage books in vain, and even forgot the most basic hard work.

"Speaking of which, this is the very strange thing about this matter. Although this Liu Yan is not doing business all day long, he will often go to Sanbaju, the largest gambling house in Maicheng, when he has little money left. , it is said that he has very good gambling luck, and he can return with a full reward every time!"

"Can it happen every time?" Tang Qin curled his lips in disdain: "There is no one who wins every time he gambles, he must be cheating!"

"Impossible, this man doesn't know any martial arts at all, if he cheats, he will definitely be discovered by people in the middle class!"

Staring at Su Mei's furrowed eyebrows, Lin Mengyao said in surprise: "Is he really so weird? He hasn't lost once?!"

"Never lost once!" Su Mei was very convinced that they had investigated this matter very carefully, and they almost dug up the ancestral grave of that poor scholar.

Hearing Su Mei's decisive answer, Lin Mengyao's pretty face froze, and she exclaimed in disbelief: "There are such strange people in the world! It seems that we really have to go and have a look!"

"My lord, we have been investigating for a long time. Do you want to reward us?" Qiu Rou suddenly tiptoed towards Lin Mengyao, and took her little hand affectionately, letting Tang Qin, who was sitting opposite, His face instantly stiffened.

"As a subordinate, you are supposed to complete the tasks assigned by your master, regardless of superiority or inferiority, and you still take the initiative to ask for rewards?" Tang Qin glanced at Qiurou with a look of disgust, and said disdainfully.

Unexpectedly, she was stunned by someone, how could Qiurou bear it, and a flash of anger flashed across her face on the spot: "This is between us and the young master, you are an outsider, what are you talking about!"

"Who says I'm an outsider?" Tang Qin got up lazily, and went straight to Lin Mengyao's side. Under the surprised eyes of everyone, he wrapped his arms around Lin Mengyao's jade neck naturally, tenderly The voice came suddenly: "You said, don't you, Mengyuan~"

"...!"

Everyone was horrified, Lin Mengyao was shocked on the spot, hesitatingly said: "Then, that, let's go find that scholar, maybe he really is the scholar we have been looking for!"

The girls of Twilight Youlian watched Tang Qin's intimacy with Lin Mengyao in amazement, and all of them had strange expressions.

Tang Qin is such a person, a man who is not tempted is a pawn she plays with at will, and a man who is tempted is the prey she absolutely wants to protect!

Her prey has never allowed anyone to get involved.

What's more, the prey this time is the one who made her heart beat for the first time!

"Reporting to my son, after many investigations by my subordinates on Liu Yan's life pattern, today is the day when he is going to live in Sanba!"

"It shouldn't be too late, let's act quickly!" Lin Mengyao wanted to get up, but Tang Qin was standing behind her, hugging her neck tightly, looking like this, it seemed that he was deliberately giving the crowd of Twilight Youlian Women look the same.

The man I fancy, you bloody vixens don't want to snatch him!

With a cold snort in his heart, Tang Qin leaned his chin lightly on Lin Mengyao's fragrant shoulder, and put his face against his face, causing her to shudder a few more times.

"Brother Mengyuan, you are just a few ordinary people. As for making you mess up? Xiaoya's practice is not over yet, and brother Baichen hasn't come back yet. Let's wait for everyone to gather before we act!"

Being hugged tightly behind her like this, Lin Mengyao was about to suffer from embarrassment: "But, but Brother Bai said that he won't be back until very late today, and it's only noon now!"

"You can believe the nonsense that guy said! Usually he said that he can practice in one day, and he can finish it in half a day!"

When Tang Qin rolled his eyes and sneered, Bai Chen also suddenly pushed the door open, his body broken, and appeared in the surprised sight of the girls.

"You've done all kinds of bad things. Did you get struck by lightning when you went up the mountain?" Qiu Rou yelled angrily when she saw this annoying guy.

"Yeah~" Bai Chen swept his eyes quickly on Qiu Rou with a smile, and laughed until the other party's pretty face was full of anger: "Haha, I only dreamed of you marrying me yesterday, and today I went up the mountain and was killed." Thunderbolt, alas~ the heavens have eyes, and the laws of heaven are ruthless!"

"you?!"

Qiu Rou's eyes widened, she looked at Bai Chen suspiciously, and said in a daze.

"What, you're elated? Do you not want to leave? Half-hearted? Or do you just want to make a promise with your body?"

"You!" Seeing that he dared to acquiesce, Qiu Rou was furious on the spot, and the spiritual power of the seven-star early spirit realm exploded with a "bang", raised her foot, and kicked Bai Chen's smiling face.

Facing the kicking jade foot, Bai Chen shook his head helplessly, stretched out a finger with one hand, and stopped it with a light vertical motion.

Breaking Yuan Realm...!

Sensing the faint spiritual light inadvertently flowing from his fingertips, Tang Qin's beautiful eyes widened with horror.

After receiving Qiu Rou's full blow, Bai Chen seemed to be teaching a naughty child a lesson. With a slap, he hit her jade feet with a slap, and there was a crisp sound.

"what!"

After being beaten by him, Qiu Rou quickly backed away, blushing and glaring at Bai Chen, the tears in her beautiful eyes could burst out of her eyes at any time.

Unexpectedly, this girl is still serious, Bai Chen shrugged helplessly, and said indifferently: "I was talking with your son yesterday, so I don't have time to dream about you!"

Looking back at Lin Mengyao, after confirming her expression, Qiu Rou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered resentfully: "You are the little girl, you are annoying!"
