Chapter 294
Late at night, Ma Wu had finished arranging the cinema and was just about to finish work. Just as he reached the door, he saw a woman with exquisite features walking toward him.
This woman was very beautiful, but her expression was very stiff. Meeting her in the middle of the night was really a bit creepy.
"Junjian, long time no see."
She knows me?
Ma Wu also felt that this woman looked familiar, but couldn't remember who she was for a while.
Zuo Wugang recognized her immediately: "Miss Dongchun!"
The person who came was Lu Dongchun. She rarely went out and had only met Ma Wu twice. It was normal for Ma Wu not to remember.
But Zuo Wugang was once Lu Dongliang's big branch manager, and he had met Lu Dongchun many times.
Lu Dongchun was Lu Maoxian's daughter, and Lu Maoxian had always been at odds with Seventh Master. Zuo Wugang was worried that Lu Dongchun would be unfavorable to Ma Wu, so he signaled Ma Wu to keep his distance from Lu Dongchun as much as possible.
Lu Dongchun looked at Ma Wu expressionlessly. Her eyes were so clear that Ma Wu could see his own reflection in her pupils.
"Can we find a place to talk?" Lu Dongchun asked.
Ma Wu took Lu Dongchun into the cinema, opened a private room, and Zuo Wugang guarded her side without taking a step away.
Lu Dongchun looked at Ma Wu and said in a tone without any ups and downs: "I came here to discuss with you about avenging my father."
Ma Wu also understood the rules. He had paid the flower bonus to the Lu family and was considered an outer force of the Lu family. If the Lu family had something, Ma Wu should logically help.
But the outer family is different from the main family. If Ma Wu didn't want to go, he had reasons to decline.
He followed the main branch of the Lu family and didn't need to listen to Lu Maoxian's orders.
He could even say it more absolutely, no longer needing the Lu family's care in the future, and directly cut off the relationship.
But Ma Wu was a cautious person. Lu Dongchun came too suddenly, and Ma Wu had no preparation in advance. Without preparation, Ma Wu never made decisions easily.
"Aunt Dongchun, let's have a drink first." Ma Wu wanted to pour wine for Lu Dongchun, but Zuo Wugang stopped Ma Wu, signaling him not to pour wine for Lu Dongchun.
Lu Dongchun kept staring at Ma Wu, making Ma Wu feel uncomfortable all over.
He put down the wine glass and didn't exchange pleasantries anymore: "Regarding this matter, let me think carefully, and I will give you an answer within a day or two."
After sending Lu Dongchun away, Ma Wu found Li Banfeng and told him the matter.
"Old Seven, do you think we should manage this matter?"
"We should. The Lu family just had an accident, and we just walk away. Who will dare to deal with us in the future?"
Ma Wu also understood this principle, but he was unhappy inside: "I really don't want to help this old dog Lu Maoxian."
"Who said we were going to help him? We have our own people."
Ma Wu was startled: "You mean Lu Chunying?"
Li Banfeng nodded: "She is the main family. Monkey Qiu will definitely bring her along. This is a good opportunity to establish her prestige.
Ling Miaoying is now targeting us. Taking this opportunity is just right to clean her up."
Ma Wu nodded: "To deal with Ling Miaoying, relying on Zuo Wugang alone is definitely not enough.
I'll go to the Zhengjing Village, discuss it with Qiu Luoye, and borrow A-Qin and the cursing woman. Both of them are good hands."
The matter was settled. Ma Wu went to the Zhengjing Village that night. After finding Qiu Luoye and telling him the matter, Qiu Luoye thought seriously:
"The person you want to deal with is a seventh-layer spying cultivator, ruthless, and has a pile of magic treasures.
The cursing woman and A-Qin are both sixth-layer. If you let them both go, I'm afraid you won't be able to take advantage. I'll find you another useful person."
The Earth God was so enthusiastic that Ma Wu couldn't refuse. He was worried that Qiu Luoye would find some strange monster like Madam Suoe, which was not easy to bring to Green Water City.
Unexpectedly, Qiu Luoye was quite thoughtful. He found a tall and strong woman, looking to be in her thirties, quite beautiful.
"Her name is Huo Ling, she is a fire spirit, seventh-layer cultivation, good skills, and her Daoist sect takes advantage. She rarely has opponents in my territory. I'll lend this person to you. Another day, you ask someone to build a few more small buildings in my place to add popularity, and that will be my thanks."
Qiu Luoye was really straightforward in doing things. Ma Wu took Huo Ling to find Shui Yongquan to cover up the monster's aura.
Shui Yongquan knew Huo Ling and took Ma Wu to a place where no one was around, asking separately: "You took her to the Zhengdi, what are you going to do?"
Ma Wu didn't hide it and told the story roughly.
Shui Yongquan frowned: "This matter should be left to A-Qin. She is a first-class assassin, and the cursing woman is also fine. She does things steadily and won't easily reveal flaws."
Ma Wu said: "Qiu Luoye said Huo Ling has higher cultivation, can fight better, and has more confidence in making a move."
Shui Yongquan smacked his lips: "When I was in the mortal world, I did a lot of this kind of thing. Choosing people requires an eye for it; it's not necessarily that the one who can fight better is more useful.
Since you and Qiu Elephant have already agreed, I shouldn't interfere. You must coax Huo Ling well; this person's temper is not very good."
Shui Yongquan covered up Huo Ling's aura.
This person's temper was indeed not good. Shui Yongquan was a water cultivator, and the techniques he used made Huo Ling a bit disgusted. During the period, she even quarreled with Shui Yongquan twice, but Shui Yongquan didn't care about her.
Ma Wu was also meeting Huo Ling for the first time. Seeing her temperament, she was also not easy to get along with. Along the way, the two didn't talk much, only trying to sleep once in the carriage.
After returning to Outside Xiaoyao Wu, Huo Ling felt the carriage was too bumpy and didn't sleep well. The two found a room and slept again.
After two sleeps, the two were not so awkward.
In the afternoon, Ma Wu received news from Lu Dongchun that they were going to make a move on Ling Miaoying that night.
Ma Wu felt that things were coming too fast, but Huo Ling felt it wasn't urgent at all: "Finish the job quickly, finish the matter quickly, and continue sleeping.
Killing a person or two, watching you guys spend so much effort, if I had this effort, I would have killed everything within a mile!"
Li Banfeng received the news and also felt the urgency was just right: "If we delay any longer, Ling Miaoying will also receive the wind. Don't look at the Lu family finding so many people; Ling Miaoying is a spying cultivator, has many magic treasures in her hands, and has many subordinates. If she makes full preparations, it's really hard to say who wins and who loses."
He returned to the Leaving Suishenju to prepare for the fierce battle at night.
Staying in the mansion before the fierce battle not only maintains the best combat power but also maintains the characteristic of being ignored.
Last time he met Ling Miaoying, Li Banfeng had left the Leaving Suishenju for more than seven hours. At that time, he deceived Tu Yinghong, but couldn't deceive Ling Miaoying's eyes.
If he had just come out of the mansion, perhaps at the moment he appeared, Ling Miaoying might not have noticed.
Wait!
Li Banfeng suddenly sat up from the bed.
What is the difference between not noticing and not seeing?
From a conceptual point of view, there is a difference. Not seeing means not appearing in the other party's line of sight at all.
Not noticing means appearing in the other party's line of sight, but the other party didn't pay attention.
But from an essential point of view, the effect is the same. The other party didn't perceive one's existence.
For the technique of "looking at flowers while riding a horse," is this effect the same?
If I stared at Tu Yinghong all day yesterday, would I have blown her up directly?
Is it possible that there is only mutual restraint between residential cultivation and traveling cultivation?
Is it possible that there is also a side of mutual promotion?
This matter cannot be asked, because the two Daoist sects of residential and traveling cannot be cultivated together under normal circumstances, and it is difficult to find a precedent like Li Banfeng.
It cannot be asked but can be verified. Seeking revenge on Ling Miaoying tonight is just a good opportunity. Even if he can't deal with Ling Miaoying for the time being, he can try it on her subordinates.
If the technique of "looking at flowers while riding a horse" and the characteristic of residential cultivation being easily ignored complement each other, Li Banfeng has made a big profit this time!
Eyesight!
"Looking at flowers while riding a horse" not only requires speed and not being seen by the other party, but also requires eyesight.
How should eyesight be trained?
Li Banfeng lay flat on the bed, let his blood vessels flow smoothly, concentrated his mind on his eyes, and took out the photos taken at Black Stone Slope.
Train Grandpa said that when traveling cultivation reaches a certain level, it doesn't walk on the ground. I look at the photos and can perceive that my cultivation is slowly improving. This should be a good way to train eyesight.
While looking at the photos, recall the situation at that time, and try to use your eyes to penetrate the photos to see the scene at that time.
Don't say, the cultivation seems to have grown faster. This move is very effective!
His wife reminded him from the side: "Hey husband, don't stare so wide, be careful that your eyeballs fall into that girl's peaches."
His wife is joking again.
Li Banfeng's train of thought was interrupted, and the improvement of his cultivation also stagnated.
He changed to another photo and wanted to continue looking, when he suddenly felt something was wrong.
His wife's voice just now was wrong.
Her voice was much weaker than before.
"Wife, are you hungry again?" Li Banfeng often went out to buy food recently, but the food quality was really not high-end; only two ruffians reached the first layer, and the rest were white lambs.
His wife smiled lightly: "Husband, don't worry, I'm not hungry."
Hearing this voice saying it powerlessly, Li Banfeng felt a surge of heartache.
Hong Ying laughed from the side: "Evil woman, if you don't have a full meal again, let alone take him up?"
The phonograph snorted coldly: "Don't listen to this bitch's nonsense, I'm really not hungry."
Li Banfeng gently stroked the phonograph tray: "Wife, don't be anxious, your husband will go buy food tonight and bring back high-quality food."
He lay back on the bed and continued to train his eyesight with the photos.
Ma Wu here divided the spiritual objects and magic treasures around him to Zuo Wugang and Huo Ling. Huo Ling felt the things were cumbersome and pushed them back to Ma Wu.
"These things are useless. When the fight starts, you'll know my methods."
Qiu Zhiheng took Tan Fucheng to a mansion in the east of the city.
Lu Chunying and Xiao Yeci had been waiting in the main hall early.
Xiao Yeci was very afraid: "Steward Qiu, you must take good care of Nannan. You agreed that she would just show her face, and she must not make a move!"
Qiu Zhiheng nodded: "Don't worry."
Lu Chunying said: "Brother Qiu, when the fight really starts, you don't have to worry about me. I dare not say I can fight, but at least I can run. You should be careful yourself and don't have any accidents."
Qiu Zhiheng smiled and didn't make a sound. Tan Fucheng said from the side: "Miss Chunying, both of your brothers call him Uncle Qiu, how is it appropriate for you to call him Brother Qiu?"
Lu Chunying puffed out her chest: "We don't look at seniority, we look at feelings!"
Qiu Zhiheng smiled and nodded, took Lu Chunying and left the mansion, arrived at Lu Maoxian's mansion, and met up with Lu Dongchun.
Li Banfeng saw that the time was almost up, tidied his clothes, touched the phonograph's horn: "Wife, endure it for now, good food will come in a moment."
The phonograph was a bit worried. Li Banfeng had looked at the photos for several hours, and she was afraid that he would be weak: "Husband, be careful."
Li Banfeng put on his top hat, lowered the brim, left the Leaving Suishenju, and prepared to get the key.
Where is the key...
Li Banfeng stared at the ground for a long time and discovered that this was not the wooden floor of Outside Xiaoyao Wu; this was the red brick floor of the factory building.
This is not Outside Xiaoyao Wu...
A familiar voice came to his ear:
"Come, lift your hair, don't block your face, the waist needs to be lower, the peaches need to be higher..."
Click, click!
The shutter sound was constant.
Li Banfeng walked over and asked: "Qiusheng?"
Bai Qiusheng put down the camera, turned his face and looked: "Seventh Master, why are you here?"
PS: What if the photo he was looking at wasn't Black Stone Slope's?
