Chapter 187 The Xu family comes to the door
Hearing this, the yellow-browed old man pondered for a moment and said lightly, "This matter is not difficult. Let me ask you, besides the one to the west of Zongyuan City in the Qingyu Valley, are there other teleportation arrays?
Is the local formation connected to it?"
The girl in green shook her head and said, "It should be gone. In the past two years, I have not seen Master use other formations except Chengxi.
Besides, this teleportation formation is expensive to build and the distance is extremely short. I don’t think Master will build several formations in one fell swoop many times in a row that are of no use at all on ordinary days.”
"Well, I generally know the situation in the valley. You can leave first and return to Qingyu Valley tomorrow."
After saying that, the yellow-browed old man closed his eyes again and stopped making any sound.
"Yes, my granddaughter knows."
The girl in green looked at the old man in the formation and pursed her lips, bowed and saluted, then turned and exited the door.
…
Hujiadongyuan.
Two days later, Hu Ruxing excitedly knocked on Hu Ruhai's door.
As soon as the young man in white squeezed into the courtyard, he came closer and said mysteriously, "Fourth brother, I have good news to tell you!"
Hu Ruhai covered his mouth with his hand and coughed lightly, then frowned in confusion and said, "What's the news?"
The young man smiled slyly and whispered, "Fourth brother, do you still remember the girl from the Xu family you met at the Hua Chao meeting two days ago?"
"What's wrong with her?" Hu Ruhai nodded, wondering.
"This morning, the Xu family's grandpa took her to visit the clan leader. I heard that he even specifically asked the fourth brother if he would like to get married." Hu Ruxing said with a smile.
Hu Ruhai was startled when he heard this, his face turned red, and he said in a panic, "Isn't this Xu family member being too abrupt?"
Hu Ruxing shrugged and said, "I have told you that the Xu family is good at poisoning and has an impulsive temper, so most of the children of the families in Zongyuan City are not willing to marry women from the Xu family.
Xu Minghui is already nineteen years old this year, two years older than you, fourth brother. I heard that the head of the Xu family has arranged several marriages for her, but in the end they all fell through."
"How could this be so? I see that Miss Xu's appearance is peaceful, and she doesn't seem to be someone with a fierce personality who is difficult to get along with." Hu Ruhai frowned.
"Then I don't know. Anyway, that's what the rumors say." Hu Ruxing scratched his head and said,
"The Xu family has just left, so the clan leader will probably call you over to talk to her in the evening. If you are really interested in the Xu family girl, you should make it clear to the clan leader yourself.
If you think about it, this marriage is considered the right one, and since the Xu family cares so much about it, the patriarch should be willing to go to the Xu family to propose marriage in person for you."
Hu Ruhai smiled helplessly and was about to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he coughed again.
Hu Ruxing saw this and said hurriedly, "Fourth brother, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you've caught the wind and cold?"
"Nothing, I guess it's because I didn't close the window when meditating in the room at night these past few days." Hu Ruhai waved his hand and said indifferently.
"But your face really doesn't look good. You'd better send someone to get two sets of medicine." Hu Ruxing frowned and stared at his brother's face again and again, and said suspiciously.
Hu Ruhai nodded, smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I can take care of myself."
The boy in white, who originally had a concerned look on his face, suddenly remembered something. He smiled, blinked and said, "Fourth brother, even if you are in such a hurry to get a wife, you should take care of yourself."
"Don't mess with the relationship. There is nothing between me and that girl from the Xu family." Hu Ruhai seemed a little embarrassed after hearing this and couldn't help scolding him softly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, just pretend to be serious." Hu Ruxing glanced at him meaningfully, hummed a tune, turned around and walked out of the courtyard briskly.
Hu Ruhai closed the courtyard door with a complicated expression, stretched out his hand to touch the small sachet hanging on his waist, and showed a bit of struggle on his pretty face.
…
Zongyuan City.
In the Wanxiang Pavilion, Lou Muyu threw another red booklet in front of Luo Lin, curled his lips and said, "Well, this is the seventh one today."
Since the Lantern Festival of the Flower Festival that day, people have been coming to the door from time to time to deliver portraits and birthdays of girls, and without exception, these people are here to see Luo Lin.
This made Lou Muyu feel dissatisfied and frustrated at the same time. He couldn't help but reached out and pinched his face with some unconfidence.
Isn't the young master a good-looking person? Why did Luo Lin and Luo Lin go to the Hua Chao Club that day, but no girl fell in love with him?
Luo Lin frowned when he heard this and said, "Didn't I tell you? You don't need to show these to me in the future."
"Tsk, you're a piece of wood that doesn't understand the charm." Lou Muyu muttered, then turned back to the counter and started fiddling with his abacus out of boredom.
It seems that these passionate little girls may have wasted their efforts and cannot cover up this handsome little iron tree.
Lou Muyu shook his head and couldn't help but feel sorry for those charming young girls.
But before he could express any more emotions, he heard the clear voice of a young man beside him, "Let's go, Muyu, it's time to practice."
"Ah? It's the Youshi time so soon?" Lou Muyu wailed when he heard this and said dissatisfied.
Luo Lin did not answer, but turned to look at him, reached out to lift the collar of the young man in blue, and carried him with one hand toward the backyard of Wanxiang Pavilion.
…
An old man in green clothes stood by the window on the second floor of Wanxiang Pavilion with a smile, watching two young men, one white and one blue, practicing with swords in the courtyard.
Luo Lin is an incompetent master. For the past year, every day, regardless of wind or rain, he had to drag Lou Muyu to practice in the courtyard for three full hours before letting him go.
Under Luo Lin's careful instruction, Lou Muyu's skills developed rapidly. In less than a year, he had acquired sixth-level strength, which was comparable to many people in the martial arts world who had practiced martial arts for many years.
And Luo Lin's own skills are becoming increasingly refined, and he is already only a few steps away from the realm of innateness. He may step into the innate realm at any time and become a rare innate master who is only sixteen years old.
The more Lou Wanxiang looked at Luo Lin, the more he liked him. This kid was smart, sensible, and had a calm temper. If he didn't have spiritual roots, he would be the perfect candidate to take charge of Wanxiang Pavilion in the future.
In comparison, his grandson Lou Muyu seems more and more lazy and doesn't seek advancement.
Thinking of this, the old man in green shook his head helplessly, stepped away from the window, and walked towards the weapon refining room.
Although the two boys in the family are both mortals, fortunately the girl from the Yi family has good qualifications. If she is well cultivated, she will definitely achieve great results in the future.
