Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

Chapter 182 Chapter 181

Lin Meng frowned and said:
"Many outsiders have relatives and friends in Luling Mansion..."

Yue Linger smiled sweetly:
"Don't worry, elder sister, any outsider who has relatives and friends in Luling is not an 'unknown' person. We only stay overnight like that 'Empty Young Master' who has no roots in Luling."

Lin Meng lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a while:
"Young master Ji Ruxue is good at martial arts, I think he is not very old, he is younger than Yan Wufeng and Wu Tianhong, and his future potential may still be higher than these two. Why don't you subdue him and take him for your own use? "

Yue Linger smiled and asked:
"Elder sister, you know me. I'm not a man who can swipe under his skirt. What does that young man look like? What's his temperament?"

"Uh..." Lin Meng raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, and said helplessly, "He looks like an overindulgent kidney deficiency... But according to him, it was because of a problem with the cold palm training, that the cold poison invaded the body and changed. In that way..."

"Forget it then. Maybe when he got mad, he had damaged his kidney meridian and lost his kidney water."

Yue Linger giggled and said:
"A guy with kidney deficiency is not worthy of my younger sister's hand. If my eldest sister really values ​​him, why not take him down personally?"

Lin Meng shook her head:
"That's all. Even though his potential may be higher than that of Yan Wufeng and Wu Tianhong, he has gone mad after all, and he is probably a hopeless fourth-rank in this life. If you are willing to take action, you can save his life. But since the fourth sister has no intention Take him... this is also his fate."

……

Twilight.

Under the corner eaves of the pavilions on all sides, lanterns were hung.The brass candlesticks on the pavilion in the middle were also lit one after another, and the bronze mirrors refracted the light. Together with the lanterns hanging on the pavilions around, the entire pavilion and its surroundings were illuminated brightly.

The poetry session is about to begin.

The well-known literati and martial arts heroes of Luling Mansion have already taken their seats on the pavilion.Talented women from Tianxiang Society also showed up one after another.

Foreign scribes and warriors sit in the gazebo, serving as an atmosphere group.

Shen Lang didn't socialize with the literati and warriors in the left and right pavilions, he just stayed in his own pavilion, drinking wine, eating pastries, feeding the carps, and whispering a word or two to Bai Shishi from time to time.

"Is Yue Ling'er not here yet?"

"Do you think any of the talented women on the field is prettier than me?"

"All the talented women on the stage are prettier than you are now, right?"

"I'm talking about my original appearance. In short, whenever you see a woman who is more beautiful than my real face, it will be more beautiful."

"Is she as beautiful as Venerable Liuli?"

"Hmm... not the same type, so it's not easy to compare. Venerable Liuli is like a fairy in the sky, pure and ethereal, not stained with dust, people only dare to look at it from a distance, and dare not feel the slightest blasphemy in their hearts. And Yue Linger...she It's the kind, um, the kind that makes people want to take good care of it, but also wants to ruthlessly conquer it..."

"I'll go, what you said doesn't sound like a girl at all."

"Didn't I say earlier that I prefer women?"

"So what you said, that you want to take good care of it, but also want to ruthlessly conquer it, is your real idea?"

"Ahem...how is it possible..."

"Heh, when you deny it, please be firm in your tone, and don't wander around in your eyes."

"Humph!"

"Those warriors on the stage, who are Yan Wufeng and Wu Tianhong?"

"They haven't arrived yet. Whenever Yue Linger comes, they will arrive."

"What's the relationship between them and Yue Ling'er? Are they just prey captured by her?"

"Suspension is the relationship of sleeping together."

"Three together?"

"Correct."

"...You really know how to play! If those literati and warriors who admire Yue Linger know about this, I don't know how many people will be heartbroken and go crazy."

While talking in a low voice, the talented women, literati and warriors of Tianxiang Club on the stage got up one after another, and the two literati who were close to the edge of the pavilion walked two steps quickly to meet them.

Bai Shishi whispered: "Here we come."

Shen Lang quickly stood up, stared, and soon saw a girl in an elegant long skirt, accompanied by Lin Meng in a red dress and carrying a long sword, slowly ascending the stage pavilion.

Behind the two of them, there were two tall, handsome and heroic young men.

One is dressed in brocade clothes, with a wide robe and big sleeves, with a refined smile on his face, like a son of an aristocratic family.

One was dressed in a military uniform with arrow sleeves and carried a long knife on his back, with a stern expression and a sharp look.

Bai Shishi introduced in a low voice beside Shen Lang:

"It's like the one from the aristocratic family, that's Yan Wufeng. Don't look at his elegant appearance, when he fights, he's very brutal. He blows people into pieces or turns them into coke.

"The cold-faced man with the sword on his back is Wu Tianhong. His sword skills are extremely fast, especially the first knife out of the sheath, which is as fast as lightning and flint. If you react a little slower, you will be stabbed by him if you don't even have a chance to make a move in front of him. Seal your throat."

Shen Lang nodded slightly, and turned his attention to Yue Ling'er again.

That Yue Linger is not tall, only about 1.5 meters five, walking with Lin Meng who is over 1.8 meters, there is a huge gap in height.

However, even though Lin Meng was taller, with longer legs, and a wider mind, it could not cover up Yue Ling'er's light.

Even everyone would only focus their attention on Yue Linger.

This girl is indeed extremely beautiful.

The impression given to Shen Lang even made him feel that she was not as beautiful as a real person, but like a fairy who came out of a dream.

Especially her temperament, that kind of soft and weak temperament, which I still feel sorry for, really meets Bai Shishi's evaluation:

It not only makes people feel pity and want to take good care of her, but also makes people feel a strong desire to conquer and want to ruthlessly ravage her.

While watching, Bai Shishi suddenly said:
"How about it, is there a fire in your heart, do you want to do something to her?"

However, Shen Lang frowned and shook his head:

"She is not naturally beautiful. If you leave out the strange 'charm' that is not natural, her real appearance, not to mention inferior to Venerable Liuli, is even slightly inferior to your real face, just like Du Qianqian almost."

Bai Shishi was stunned:
"What do you mean? You mean, she changed her face too?"

"Of course it's not as simple as disguise." Shen Lang said leisurely: "It is a strange charm that acts on the spiritual level, and it should be one of the abilities bestowed on her by that demon god."

This is equivalent to a spiritual beauty and filter.

It can make people feel that she is so beautiful from the bottom of their hearts, and they can't help having all kinds of yearning and impulse towards her.

With all the beauty, even Shen Lang thought she was so beautiful at the beginning, and she could compete with Venerable Liuli, so Shen Lang couldn't help being a little distracted.

But soon, as the "spiritual seed" between his brows twitched suddenly, a cool spiritual force was injected into his eyes, and when he looked at Yue Ling'er again, it was as if he had turned off the beauty filter. There will be no such dazzling and incomprehensible feeling.

Now his perception of Yue Linger is just an ordinary and beautiful girl.

There are rumors that five years ago, Yue Linger's appearance could only be described as delicate, but it was only after the eighteenth female college change that she grew longer and more beautiful.

Looking at it now, the mystery of the longer and more beautiful Linger is just the charm bestowed by the demon god.

Shaking his head, Shen Lang looked back at Bai Shishi with little interest:

"By the way, is your knowledge of other people's abilities limited to combat? Do you know nothing about other auxiliary abilities?"

"..."

Bai Shishi looked away guiltily:

"I'm just a killer who kills and kills, I don't care much about other aspects..."

Shen Lang laughed lowly:
"On the one hand, you don't care much about it. On the other hand, I'm afraid they are hiding something from you, right? After all, you are just a target on the bright side, and there is no need for you to know too many secrets."

Bai Shishi snorted lightly, but did not speak.

While the two were talking, exclamations sounded from time to time in the surrounding gazebos.

"Is that Yue Ling'er? She really deserves her reputation! I think she is not only the number one beauty in Luling Mansion, even in the capital, there are few girls as beautiful as her!"

"It's as if a goddess has come into the world... I suddenly have a fountain of ideas, and I want to write a poem for Miss Yue..."

"Yan Wufeng, Wu Tianhong, huh, the way Baba is following Miss Yue looks like two dogs! I will definitely go on stage later, challenge them both in public, let them lose face, and let Miss Yue recognize them The true colors that are not useful at all!"

"Then you replace them and just follow behind Miss Yue?"

"Get out! I won't be so incompetent. I want to hold her waist with both hands and stand behind her!"

"This is the Poetry Club. This person is so vulgar, how did he get in here?"

"He came in with martial arts..."

The people in the gazebo were some distance away from the pavilion, so they could talk freely, and similar vulgar words emerged endlessly.

The literati and warriors on the stage were much more reserved.

Regardless of whether it is a literati or a martial artist, when Yue Linger came to the stage, they all got up and left their seats eagerly, and went forward to greet her. When they looked at her, almost all of them had bright eyes, or were crazy, or obsessed. or dark...

But everyone is a decent person, and they are on the stage, under the watchful eyes of everyone, they will not be as vulgar as some warriors in the pavilion, they have restrained their emotions well, and behaved quite gracefully.

As Yue Ling'er entered the stage, the poetry meeting officially began.

Today's poetry meeting is a civil and military poetry meeting, and the theme is to praise the strong Chu and Wu style in poetry.

It is for this reason that warriors are allowed to enter the poetry meeting today.

Otherwise, if warriors want to participate in the activities of Tianxiang Club, they can only participate in activities that do not require cultural literacy such as chess games, music festivals, outings, and hunting.

Watching all the talented women and literati start to quote scriptures and talk about the style of martial arts in this dynasty, and some literati are throwing bricks and jade to write a poem, praising the unrivaled martial power of the Taizu of Chu who swept the world, Shen Lang yawned in a lack of interest, and moved his legs Swinging on the long seat, he leaned his back on the pillar of the pavilion, closed his eyes and said:

"I'll sleep for a while. If someone challenges Yan Wufeng or Wu Tianhong, just call me. If not, just ignore it."

Bai Shishi snorted coldly:
"You really dare to use me as a servant girl! You forgot to feed me Hua Gong Powder today. Now that my skills have recovered, I will wait for you to fall asleep, and then sneak attack and assassinate you!"

Shen Lang said in a low voice, slowly:
"Understood... If you want to sneak attack, you can do whatever you want, just don't slap your face..."

While talking, he actually fell asleep.

Seeing him soundly asleep, Bai Shishi gritted her teeth at him resentfully, raised her right hand, pointed at him as a knife, and cut his throat at him.Then with five fingers like an awl, he thrust down, pretending to be piercing his heavenly spirit cap.Then he squeezed his five fingers into a claw gesture, grabbed his chest from a distance, and made a heart-pumping movement...

In the pond outside the pavilion.

The little fish floated on the edge of a lotus leaf, with one pectoral fin holding the lotus leaf and the other pectoral fin supporting the gills, watching Bai Shishi's mime with relish, feeling that her performance was much more interesting than the poems on stage.

Shen Lang seemed to be fast asleep on the surface, but actually he was sinking his thoughts into the fine brush space to observe Xiao Zhao's state.

Xiao Zhao has been sleeping for several days, and still hasn't woken up.

But its condition is quite good, its breath is getting stronger day by day, the airflow circulating between the mouth and nose, in addition to the sharp white airflow, there will occasionally be a thin black wind.

The black wind felt very familiar to Shen Lang, it was the "Heavenly Fiend Black Wind" that had been spent in the "Remaining Mansion" before.

"Heavenly evil and black winds have spit out occasionally, it seems that Xiao Zhao's refinement is going well!"

Shen Lang felt relieved, and observed the Fire Crow Egg again.

I saw the little crow egg floating around the little moon, and together with the light spots of other exercises, revolving around the little moon like a satellite, the shell has gradually been covered with flame-like golden feather patterns, exuding a soft and warm glow like the morning sun. shine.

Although the little fire crow hadn't hatched yet, Shen Lang could already clearly sense that the little life inside the egg was becoming more lively and agile, and its spirituality was increasing day by day.

"The current aura already has the strength of a little demon in the 'Psychic Realm'. I don't want to get out of my shell yet, do you want to practice until the third realm?"

The little fire crow cultivates in the egg and does not take up resources, Shen Lang will not be in a hurry to get it out of its shell, so he silently observed the fire crow egg for a while, then chatted with Xiaogu and Xiaoya.

When Shen Lang only sinks his mind into the space, his consciousness is attached to the little moon of the Monster Taming Art, and he cannot physically contact the little monsters, so he can only communicate with Xiaogu and Xiaoya.

After chatting with them for a while, Shen Lang turned his attention to the "triangular broken copper piece".

Inside that "remaining mansion", there are piles of various spiritual iron and other metals piled up into hills, but because they have been under surveillance all the time, Shen Lang dare not use his personal space to pack them all away, so he only stuffed a piece weighing ten catties into the package. Take away the Starlight Silver Ingot.

"Starlight Silver" is a spiritual metal that is higher in grade than Black Iron, but one grade lower than "Wujinsha".

Shen Lang still doesn't know how to refine weapons, so this piece of starlight silver was used to feed that piece of triangular broken copper.

The origin of this triangular piece of broken copper is mysterious, and currently it can only be used as a semi-disposable concealed weapon that can be charged for seven days and fired once.

However, the power is not small, and it has great development prospects.

More than half a month ago, Shen Lang placed the triangular piece of broken copper on top of the starlight silver ingot.

Now more than half a month has passed, the starlight silver ingot has shrunk by [-]%, but the volume of the triangular broken copper piece has not changed at all, it is still only the size of a baby's palm, and I don't know where it swallowed so much starlight silver.

However, although the volume has not changed, the appearance is more glamorous than before, exuding a soft brass luster, and the unidentifiable tadpole-shaped runes on it have also become clearer.

There is no need to make a special appraisal, Shen Lang also knows that the power of the triangular broken copper piece has been greatly improved based on perception alone.

"Maybe it will be useful this time..."

The triangular broken copper piece has already been charged and can be used at any time. Shen Lang observed for a while, checked all kinds of equipment, and then withdrew his consciousness from the fine pen space, returned to his body, and really fell asleep.

When she was sleeping soundly, she heard Bai Shishi shouting in her ear:

"Wake up, wake up!"

Shen Lang opened his eyes, raised his arms, and stretched a lot:

"Have you started fighting?"

Bai Shi said:

"It's already over."

Shen Lang was startled:
"Didn't I tell you to wake me up when there is a fight?"

Bai Shishi looked innocent:
"But what you said is that someone challenged Yan Wufeng or Wu Tianhong to wake you up!"

"So no one has challenged them?"

"Yes, I have!"

"Then why didn't you call me?"

Bai Shishi spread her hands together:
"Today, the ones who went up to challenge are only sixth-rank fighters. Whether they challenged Yan Wufeng or Wu Tianhong, they couldn't even complete a single move, so they were dismissed by them. Then before I have time to call you, they will be defeated." Alright, tell me what to do!"

"..."

Shen Lang was speechless for a while:
"Then why are you waking me up now? Are you sick?"

Bai Shishi rolled her eyes:

"You're the one who is sick! The poetry meeting is over, it's over!"

"What?" Shen Lang was stunned: "How long have I been asleep?"

Bai Shishi said: "About an hour and a half."

After taking away some time in the Jingbi space, I actually slept for a little over two hours?
Shen Lang shook his head helplessly:

"It seems that I have been a little tired recently. Now that the show is over, shouldn't we go back?"

Bai Shishi pursed her lips and said in a low voice:

"A maidservant came over just now and said that Senior Sister Lin had ordered us to stay overnight at Tianxiang Club. I asked that maidservant. All scribes and warriors who came from other places tonight, and those who have no relatives or friends to stay in the local area, will be detained. down."

Shen Lang smiled and said:

"Anything like this?"

The corner of Bai Shishi's mouth twitched slightly, her voice lowered:

"You really think this is a good thing?"

Shen Lang wondered:

"I can save the money for accommodation, and I can have breakfast tomorrow. Maybe I can save money for lunch, dinner, and tomorrow's accommodation. If it's not a good thing, what is it?"

White poems are full of black lines:
"Forget it. I can't tell you the specific situation. I just want to tell you one thing: If you stay here tonight, you can save all the expenses for the rest of your life, and you don't have to spend a penny."

"..."

Shen Lang blinked, stood up, looked around and asked:

"How many foreign scholars and warriors are staying at Tianxiang Club tonight?"

Bai Shishi shook her head:

"I don't know the exact number of people, but there should be 30 to [-] people."

Shen Lang frowned: "Why are there so many people?"

Bai Shishi smirked:
"Do you think they are raising birds for nothing like you? Everyone comes to see the talented women of Tianxiang Club. I heard that Tianxiang Club provides board and lodging tonight, so of course they want to stay. Even the young master who is not short of money is looking forward to today. In the evening, I can meet a talented woman who doesn't want to sleep."

"Tsk, birds really die for food!" Shen Lang shook his head and said, "Then let's stay overnight to save money."

"..." Bai Shishi was speechless for a while.
