Chapter 19 Focus on the Tao

Long Peng had just made a guess, but he didn't expect Mu Wanqing to be so direct. He didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Why don't you speak?"

Mu Wanqing's palms were covered with sweat, as if she was nervous, "Just answer it, is it difficult?"

"well……"

Long Peng sighed and asked, "Why do you want me to marry you?"

"I once swore that the first man who saw my face would either kill him or marry him."

"So hasty?"

Mu Wanqing was startled for a moment, mist rising in her eyes, "You...you don't want to?"

"Don't worry, Miss Mu."

Long Peng rarely had a headache, "Let me ask you, do you like me, or do you feel happy when you see me?"

Mu Wanqing pursed her lips, said nothing, and just shook her head.

Long Peng nodded slightly, not surprised.

"When the two of us first met, it was a life-or-death situation. If you still fall in love with Long like this, you're either a ghost or you're sick."

choke--

Seeing the dagger drawn by Mu Wanqing, Long Peng said, "Don't be in a hurry to draw the sword. Listen to what I have to say."

"What are you talking about? Since you refuse to marry me, you can only..."

Before Mu Wanqing could finish her words, Long Peng suddenly took action, snatched away her dagger and touched her acupuncture points.

Long Peng shook his head and put the dagger back into its scabbard, "Look, you don't like me and you even want to kill me. Even if you marry me, you won't be happy."

"Life is a long time. Isn't it painful to be with someone you don't love?"

Mu Wanqing bit her lower lip and drew blood, and said angrily, "Unlock the acupuncture points for me."

"Of course you can, but don't do anything, let's talk calmly, otherwise you will have to stand still."

"Okay, I agree, please hurry up and untie it."

Poof, poof——

Long Peng readily agreed and used several fingers to open her acupuncture points, "Let's continue talking."

"Miss Mu, tell the truth, if a man with Yue Laosan's looks looked at your face, would you still marry him?"

"I'm thinking, it shouldn't be possible, right?"

Mu Wanqing clenched the weapon in her hand and said with a trembling voice, "Then... tell me, what should I do?"

"Whether you are willing to abide by something like an oath or not is entirely up to you. I can't decide for you, but..."

Long Peng raised his head and said calmly, "However, God knows and earth knows that I have seen your face. You know it, I know it, and no one else knows it. If I don't tell it, and you don't tell it, who will know?"

"Of course, if you are determined to marry Mr. Long, then I can only say sorry."

Mu Wanqing was silent for a while, then pulled off the black gauze on her face, revealing a beautiful face.

"Am I ugly? Are you so unwilling to marry me?"

"The girl was joking."

Long Peng chuckled twice and said, "The girl's appearance is not as good as my elder sister's, but she is definitely not comparable to the rouge and vulgar powder. It's just... Long will not marry a woman he doesn't like, so I hope you can forgive me."

"By the way, if Miss Mu still wants to kill Mr. Long, you have to hurry up. He won't stay in Dali for too long. The rivers and lakes are very big and dangerous. Maybe we will see you again one day, in front of Mr. Long's tombstone.

Already."

Long Peng turned and left without stopping.

Mu Wanqing froze on the spot and didn't look back for a long time.

"What he said makes sense. If I don't say it, if he doesn't say it, others won't know, and then Master won't know either."

"But why do I feel a little unwilling? And... who is the sister he calls, is she prettier than me? I don't believe it..."

…

When Long Peng returned to the ruined temple, Duan Yu and the others had already woken up.

Zhong Ling walked over with the baby girl in her arms, yawned and said, "It's too tiring to take care of the child. Please take her away quickly. I can't do it anymore."

Luang Peng smiled, took the doll, took out a piece of cloth from his sleeve, and tied her to his chest.

"Hey...where's Miss Mu? Why didn't you see her?" Duan Yu asked curiously.

"It should be outside."

Long Peng pointed outside the temple and continued, "I am going to Tianlong Temple, what about you?"

When Duan Yu heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly replied, "Tianlong Temple, let's go along, Lingmei and I are going back to the palace."

"Okay, let's get on the road, don't delay."

"You guys wait a minute. I'm going to ask Sister Mu to go together. Yesterday afternoon, Yun Zhonghe targeted Sister Mu. Fortunately, he ran away after meeting Brother Duan and me. If she were left alone, she might be in danger."

"Okay, hurry up and don't delay."

As Long Peng spoke, he walked outside and jumped lightly on the horse, "Master Duan, get on the horse."

"Okay, okay, here I come."

Duan Yu quickly followed and sat down behind Long Peng, and then whispered, "Um... that Young Master Lin, do you want me to ride with Lingmei?"

"You kid..."

Long Peng turned back to look at Duan Yu and couldn't help but laugh, "What? Looking at you like this, do you want to take Zhong Ling back to meet his parents?"

Duan Yu nodded sheepishly.

"Zhong Wanchou has a grudge against your father. Will he agree?"

Duan Yu was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hands helplessly, and finally said, "The one I want to marry is Lingmei, not Lord Zhonggu. I don't care about that much."

"Ha ha……"

"Why is Shaoxia Lin laughing?"

"I'm not laughing at anything."

Long Peng shook his head, raised his horse and whipped his whip, "Drive! Let's go, man!"

Duan Yu was startled and quickly grabbed Long Peng, "Young Master Lin, don't leave in a hurry. Sister Ling and the others haven't caught up with them yet."

"Miss Mu's horse runs very fast, and she will catch up in a moment. You can rest assured."

"Is this so..."

really.

After a while, Duan Yu saw a black horse chasing behind him, it was Mu Wanqing.

"Brother Duan, why don't you wait for us?"

Duan Yu opened his mouth to explain, but saw that the speed of the black rose increased by 20%, causing them to just watch and eat ashes.

"What do you mean by this little girl? She's running so fast and I haven't even said a few words to Sister Ling..." Duan Yu was speechless.

"Young Master Lin, is there any way to run faster?"

"have."

Duan Yu was pleasantly surprised and said quickly, "What can I do, Young Master Lin? Please tell me quickly."

"Ahem..."

Long Peng coughed twice and said, "You go down now, I will be alone soon, so I will come up soon."

"This...this method...is wonderful, but let's forget it. I can accept it if it takes it slow."

"You kid, you're not stupid."

Duan Yu also knew that Long Peng was making fun of him, so he pretended to be cool and said, "Young Master Lin, I am looking down on you now. When I was a child, I was given the title of 'Prodigy'."

"By the way, Young Master Lin is so outstanding now. Do you think he has been a proud man since he was a child?"

"This... does not."

Duan Yu was puzzled, so he asked, "No? Why not?"

"Stop asking."

Long Peng didn't want to continue this topic anymore, so he waved his horsewhip, his speed suddenly increased, and he almost dropped the folding fan in Duan Yu's hand.

Duan Yu gradually adapted to it and said quietly, "Ahem... there is no need to be so fast and so sudden, so Xiaosheng is not prepared at all."

"Mr. Duan, sometimes I really think you talk a lot."

"Well, Xiaosheng feels that he doesn't say much, but what he said is not in line with Lin Shaoxia's wishes, so Lin Shaoxia feels verbose, but not everything in this world..."

"If you keep talking, I'll throw you off."

Duan Yu was startled for a moment, then shut up immediately, choosing to be a humble gentleman who cherished his words like gold.
