For several days in a row, that lifeless knock on the door sounded at the same time every day.
But Hu Qing has taken root in the weapon refining room. Anyway, Hu Nuan can come in on her own, and others can also send messages to her through paper cranes. Knock on the door? She must not recognize her.
He devoted himself to studying how to implement the bear beast's armor on himself. He also made all the accumulated leather into blank talismans, and mixed the beast's blood with cinnabar and sealed it. After burning the body with fire and learning from the old and learning the new, he went out to refine the weapon.
room.
Twenty days have passed outside.
Hu Huahua rolled her eggs over and said, "Mom, that man comes every day and never falls. He came even though it rained heavily the day before yesterday."
At the same time and place, Hu Huahua became a game, and he even climbed up the wall to see who he was.
"There was a man I didn't know. He didn't know what to do with my mother. I didn't open the door for him."
Hu Qing praised: "Well done, don't open the door to strangers. Who is it after knocking for twenty days? It doesn't look like someone is in a hurry."
It can’t be a matchmaker. Yes, what about a man? Could it be a matchmaker?
That day, at that hour, there was a knock on the door again.
Hu Qing frowned, feebly. Is this man going to starve to death?
Go over and open the door.
The people outside the door were surprised, thinking that they would return without success this time, but their expressions of disappointment suddenly turned into surprise.
Hu Qing saw the real owner. He was a man in his twenties. He looked sickly. He was probably the kind of sad-faced young man with a fair face that some girls would like. His eyes were slightly red, and his eyelashes were slightly red.
Long, his eyes looked over and he immediately felt a little want to speak.
Hu Qing felt a chill in his heart, as if he was a heartless man.
"Who are you? And why are you here?"
The man smiled slightly, with the scent of small white flowers swaying in the wind: "Master Hu, I am Ruan Anfu of the Ruan family."
The head of the Hu family was stunned and Hu Qing was stunned. He looked him up and down: "The Ruan family? Oh -" he suddenly realized: "The Ruan family from the big family in Baopingfang - what do you want from me?"
Ruan Anfu always had a smile on his face. It looked good, but it made Hu Qing feel weird.
He said: "I want to find a place to live in the Hu's Mansion. I am proficient in playing chess, calligraphy and painting, and I can even make soup with my own hands——"
"Stop." Hu Qing was even more surprised: "Could it be that the Ruan family was also attacked by the enemy overnight, and you have no place to work?"
Ruan Anfu's face turned red: "It's not. It's just, it's just -" He didn't say anything for a long time, and finally asked her: "Master Hu, would you like me to serve you? Although I am only a four-spirited person, I also have a water spirit.
Root."
Serve. Water Spiritual Root.
Hu Qing probably understood something and refused directly: "I don't need anyone here."
After saying that, he closed the door ruthlessly.
Ruan Anfu walked away with a lonely look on his face.
Behind the gate, Hu Qing and Hu Huahua looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Is this the legendary self-recommendation pillow? Is it impossible that I am so charming?"
Even with Hu Nuan as her backer, how could she, a solitary Qi-refining novice, compete with the nine great families? Why was this so weird? Why did this happen to her so suddenly? What was the conspiracy?
Hu Qing thought about it and changed into clothes. She always wore clothes that were convenient for movement. She didn't like those fluttering floor-length skirts with long sleeves. They were convenient for fighting, especially when she had to swing iron. Even a slightly longer skirt would be in the way. This
When I wanted to go out for gossip, I changed into a pomegranate red pleated skirt with a green stand-up collar with narrow sleeves. I tied a hand-width jade belt around my waist with the sun, moon and stars embroidered on it. I combed half of my hair and left half open. Yes.
I looked at the mirror on the entire wall and saw that my hair was a little messy in front of me, so I combed my bangs neatly, made some gestures, and cut them with a click, leaving only the length of my hand. I brushed it from the middle to both sides. It grew back after being struck by lightning.
Her hair is black and shiny, with a hint of blue. Could it be that it is still charged with electricity?
Hu Qing looked at her face carefully in the mirror and found that her spiritual power brought her beauty. There was no stray eyebrow, her skin was white, her eyebrows were bright and bright, her brows were slightly raised, and her eyeliner was black and long. The tip of her nose was
Sharp energy, calm lips.
The person in the mirror smiled and looked gentle, but when he pulled the corners of his mouth to reveal the tips of his teeth, he immediately changed into a person, becoming sassy and heroic, with a masculine but not too tough cheerfulness.
Hu Qing said to herself in the mirror: "You are really getting more and more beautiful."
Hu Huahua echoed: "Mom is getting more and more beautiful."
Hu Qing said to him: "When you turn into a human form, you will also be a handsome young man."
Putting on the shoulder bag, Hu Huahua went in, lay down, and put his head on the side to rub: "Mom, where are we going?"
"Go to the teahouse to listen to the gossip and see what the Ruan family is up to."
As expected, there is always news in a crowded place, and the Ruan family's affairs are not a secret, and are even considered an elegant matter by some people.
It turns out that the Ruan family has always produced more beauties than spiritual children. Regardless of male or female, they are always more intelligent than other families. However, the monks of the Ruan family are not as outstanding as other families. In order to maintain the status of the Ruan family, the Ruan family pursues political marriages.
It sounds good to say that marriage is a good thing, but many children of the Ruan family were sent away directly because they did not have good cultivation qualifications and had no other great use to the family. It is not a good idea to say that they are going to be married.
The Ruan family themselves are used to this, so the men and women of the Ruan family who are destined to be given away make plans for themselves. As long as it is beneficial to the Ruan family, the Ruan family will not stop it, but will actively promote it.
So there was Ruan Anfu's door-to-door sales promotion.
Hu Qing was extremely speechless, and it wasn't that she was disdainful. After all, everyone has their own way of survival. What she was speechless about was - what did Ruan Anfu see in her? What could she give him?
Just when I thought of this, I heard someone mention this name.
"I heard that the weak and frivolous young master of the Ruan family will be sacrificed to the Shou Lao Demon."
Who is Shou Lao Mo?
"Hey, Shou Lao Mo? That old guy is still alive in Zhuangzi outside the city? His happy forest can drive him to Nonghua Pavilion."
"Then what do the Ruan family think? Shou Lao Mo's reputation is not good."
Someone said: "Except for that, the old guy has a reputation for being notorious. The Ruan family must be fawning over him because they want him to make alchemy. An ordinary child, in exchange for the care of the family from a fourth-grade alchemist."
, no loss.”
Some people said: "That's right, you have to get some benefits from raising it so big."
Then someone said, "Have you heard? Mr. Fu went to the original Chun family's current mansion for many days and knocked on the door. He was trying to find a way out for himself."
Everyone asked what was going on.
The man said: "I don't know, there is no result yet. It depends on whether the Ruan family will give him this opportunity. Hey, that Hu family, I heard that the female head of the family is not very good-looking."
Hu Qing: "..."
He picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, chewing it hard.
Hu Huahua said in her heart: "Mom, they don't know you, you are the most beautiful."
Hu Qing sneered: "So you are using me as a shield to confront that Shou Lao Demon?"
