"You're a little weird today. How so? You're so pretty …"
This sentence could even be used as a golden phrase to pick up girls in the future. Although the girl would not burst with joy after receiving such a compliment, she would still feel a little happy. However, in today's era, any girl who stopped a random girl on the street and said the same thing would definitely not feel shy or happy. Scolding her as a lecher would be considered a light punishment, and if it was serious, a slap would be very likely.
Miss.Liu took a small sip of the soup and looked up at Li Yi. She asked, "What did you say just now? I didn't hear you clearly."
"I said, you're … pretty good today."
An upright person was not afraid of a crooked shadow. At times like this, Li Yi's expression was serious and his words were righteous. He did not feel guilty at all.
"I wasn't pretty in the past?"
Li Yi was surprised that Miss.Liu could say such a thing. It was a free question. He shook his head and said, "I was pretty in the past too …"
"Then what's nice about me today?" Miss.Liu looked at him and asked, "Am I as pretty as Miss Zeng in Willow Lane?"
This was a free question.
The sun was a little dazzling today. It was so dazzling that Li Yi could not see Miss.Liu's pretty face clearly.
"Oh my, the sun is really poisonous today. It's so bright that I'm going blind. I can't see or hear anything …"
Fang closed his eyes and stood in the courtyard. He fumbled around with his hands. When he felt his way out of the courtyard, he even tripped on the steps and almost fell down. He was still complaining.
"Pretentious …" Li Yi looked at Fang in disdain as he stumbled out. He turned back to look at Miss.Liu and curled his lips. "It's cloudy today. Where did the sun come from? Why don't you find a good reason to lie …"
Li Yi looked at the door worriedly and said, "Maybe there's something wrong with Fang's eyes and ears. I'll go take a look …"
Fang walked in from outside again. He scratched his head and said, "I forgot to tell you that those people have returned from Shuzhou."
He handed a letter to Li Yi and said, "This was given to Second Miss by Miss Yangliuqing. Miss Yang didn't come back with them this time. It seems that she left alone in Shuzhou."
After saying that, he looked up at the sky and waved his hands in the air as he groped his way out of the courtyard.
Li Yi, Miss.Liu, as well as Fang and the others, had set off before the rest of the crowd. They had traveled day and night, so naturally, they had to return to the capital first.
The remaining team of nearly a hundred people came back from Shuzhou under the leadership of Yangliuqing. However, Fang just said that she didn't come back with the others?
Li Yi walked over and handed the envelope to Miss.Liu. "This is for you."
He thought that since those people had returned, the materials donated by the King of Shu should have arrived. It was a lot of money. How should he spend it …
"I've finished drinking. Remember to wash the dishes."
After a while, Miss.Liu had finished reading the letter. She put it on the table and stood up. She didn't argue with Li Yi about what had just happened. She turned around and went back to her room.
Li Yi picked up the letter in surprise and looked at it. After a while, he slowly put it down. He glanced at the closed door of Miss.Liu's room and frowned slightly.
Yangliuqing had left.
Just as suddenly as she came, she left just as suddenly.
She didn't say where she went, nor did she say whether she would come back. She just thanked Miss.Liu in the letter for teaching her martial arts in the past two years. These two years were the happiest two years of her life. She would never forget all of this. She would always have such a master. She couldn't repay the kindness of giving her a new life …
There was nothing else in the letter after that.
Li Yi's index finger gently tapped on the table. A look of reminiscence appeared on his face.
…
"Excuse me, does Ruyi Liu live here?"
The young girl who was about the same age as Miss.Liu appeared before him more than a year ago. She carried a small bag on her back and held a long sword in her hand. The cold expression on her face was exactly the same as Miss.Liu's.
At that time, she wanted to challenge Ruyi, who was ranked first on the Hero Ranking Board. She talked about the rules of Jianghu every time she opened her mouth. After losing to Ruyi, she wholeheartedly wanted to be her master.
Although Miss.Liu didn't agree, Li Yi was still a little surprised at her perseverance.
Every day before dawn, she would come over to boil water, chop firewood, and clean the courtyard. She almost took care of all the chores in the house.
Before her, Miss.Liu was the most hardworking person that Li Yi had ever seen. After her, Li Yi had never seen anyone who worked harder than her.
She seemed to be carrying a heavy burden that had been buried in the bottom of her heart. She had never revealed it to anyone.
In the past two years, the only thing that she had done was to continuously surpass herself. From a petty thief who knew some Kung Fu, she had now become a top-notch master.
Although she was still a long way from becoming a master or a master like Miss.Liu, the speed of her improvement was too fast. She had a bright future ahead of her. Even now, she was ranked at the top of the Heaven Ranking Board.
Li Yi didn't know what she was carrying that made her so strict with herself. She was curious about the reason why Yangliuqing left, but she was more concerned about Miss.Liu's feelings.
Her cold and unapproachable face was just a facade. She was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
She never talked much. She would prove everything with her actions.
If she hadn't recognized her as a disciple from the bottom of her heart, she wouldn't have spent so much effort to cultivate her. Although she didn't show it on the surface, when she left just now, Li Yi saw some different expressions on her face.
"Shuzhou …"
Li Yi had always known that Yangliuqing had a secret. Especially on the way back from the Qi Kingdom, this feeling became stronger.
Thinking of something, Li Yi walked out and entered another small yard.
Second Granduncle was asleep on the rocking chair. The sloppy old man squatted far away, flipping through a yellowed book.
When Li Yi walked over, he didn't even notice it until Li Yi coughed softly. He hurriedly stuffed the book into his sleeve, raised his head and asked, "What's wrong? Are you going out?"
As a Martial Arts Grandmaster, it was inconceivable that he would need a reminder to realize that someone was approaching him.
Li Yi looked at him and asked, "What book are you reading, Xu? You're so engrossed in it."
Hearing this, the sloppy old man straightened up and said with a smile, "A profound martial arts secret book. You won't understand it even if I tell you."
"It turns out that the men and women in the profound martial arts secret books don't wear clothes." Li Yi didn't expect him to be so reserved at such an old age. With his status and strength as a guru, he still needed to rely on this kind of book to solve his personal problems. He said with a smile, "Xu, if you like it, I'll give you some more profound secret books next time. The color pages are very precious …"
Having seen more real and exciting things, although he was not very interested in those traditional picture books, it was still very easy for him to get a few.
The sloppy old man said seriously, "You misunderstood. This is really a secret book …"
"I know." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Xu. I won't tell anyone …"
If the news that a Wulin guru liked to read erotic books was released, the sales of Wulin tabloids would definitely increase greatly.
After smiling, Li Yi's face became serious and he asked, "Does Xu know something about Yangliuqing?"
The sloppy old man was about to explain. Hearing this, he looked at him and asked, "What happened to her?"
"She left, so I want to know something about her." Li Yi told him about Yangliuqing's departure.
If this matter had no beginning and no end, he was afraid that Miss.Liu would always feel uncomfortable.
The sloppy old man thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "The martial arts she used seemed to be from an old guy in the Wu Kingdom."
"The Wu Kingdom?" Li Yi frowned slightly.
The sloppy old man looked a little nostalgic and nodded. "If I'm right, she should have some relationship with the royal family of the Wu Kingdom."
