Chapter 65
Under the Azure Ox Mountain, a youth was hurrying over from the direction of Fallen Leaf City. He wore coarse linen clothes and his face seemed to be covered with a layer of black dust, looking quite unrefined. But if one looked closely, they would discover that his eyes were bright and shining, with sweat trickling down his neck, revealing the clean and fair skin underneath.
The young man was actually a girl in disguise. She walked on the mountain path, her eyes vigilantly looking around, this road was not very peaceful, she was afraid of encountering mountain bandits.
"The young lady also doesn't know what she's thinking, it's all because of that wicked person that she's like this now. Now that something has happened, I'm the one who has to go find that wicked person."
This girl was Su Qian's maid Xiaodie, and this time she came over to go to the Frog Village.
After Cheng Dairen's big disturbance at the Huang family, Huang Yuanwai hastily broke off the engagement with the Su family. This was a good thing, but also a bad thing. The whole of Luoye City spread the rumor that Su Qing was the wife of the Toad King, and whoever dared to marry her would have to beware of the Toad King coming to their doorstep.
Thus, Su Qing had two labels attached to her: one was the widow of the Ke De Fu family who had been slaughtered, and the other was a woman who had been ravished by mountain bandits.
These two rules will cost you your life if you break them.
The seriously ill Su family's old master, in a fit of anger, drove Su Qing out of the house and gave her only a dilapidated and unprofitable wine shop.
Nowadays, the master and servant's life is unbearable. The young lady has to disguise herself as a woman with a black veil on her face to go out. The wine tower's business is so bad that it can't even support the lives of the two masters. Moreover, there are some idle rascals who often cause trouble in the wine tower and have ideas about the young lady.
All of this, isn't it all thanks to that wicked person?
Miss Ke still let herself come to him, would that ruthless villain actually help Miss? Xiaodie couldn't figure out these things in her mind, since Miss had asked her to come, she naturally came. As for whether she would be left behind by the villain to be killed, she didn't care about that anymore.
……
The gashapon machine appeared again, spinning round and round, and with a "clunk" sound, an object fell out from inside.
Ding! Congratulations on obtaining an Epic Ghost Axe.
Cheng Dali found his own large axe, and with a fierce heave, he discovered that he couldn't lift it. In just an instant, he found that this large axe of his seemed to have changed its appearance.
Entirely black, even the axe blade was black. When viewed in the sunlight, it seemed as if there were evil spirits' faces on the surface of the axe, looking ferocious and frightening.
Ghost Face Axe: Peerless Battle-Axe, weighing 108 catties, said to be forged by the Cow Ironsmith of Ma Family Village. Attached skill: Hot Blood.
Cheng Darui viewed the system interface and obtained such information. It seems that his guess was not wrong. The battle axe rewarded by the system replaced his original broken axe, or it can be said that his original axe was upgraded to an extraordinary level.
Poor, ordinary, excellent (exquisite), top-notch, peerless, legendary. This is the level of characters, and it also corresponds to items that can reach the peerless level, which is considered a divine weapon in the entire empire.
As for the Ghost Axe's Hot Blood skill, it should be an amplification of combat power.
It's not bad to get a reward for this lottery. The problem is that Cheng Dairen was thinking about how to exchange the weapon, but he happened to draw a pretty good axe at this time.
There's another problem that Cheng Dalai can't help but consider - this axe is currently too heavy for him to wield.
The original axe weighed fifty or sixty catties, and Cheng Dairen could barely swing it. He didn't have many opportunities to go on stage anyway. But now that the axe has been upgraded, its weight has reached a terrifying 108 catties. Cheng Dairen can barely lift it, but if he were to wield it in battle...it's really asking too much of him.
It seems I still need to think of ways to boost my strength.
For now, it can only be temporarily shelved, and the only thing that can be done is to carry it and scare people.
At this time, Liu Zhi pushed open the door and came in: "Master, are you hungry? Do you want me to cook noodles for you to eat?"
Liu Zhi has been trying her best to be a good maid, but she's not very good at it. She can't even do simple tasks like serving tea, washing clothes, and cooking meals... Every time she cooks, Cheng Da Lei suspects that she might be poisoning him on purpose.
"You're not eating your rice, how's the women's gymnastics I taught you?"
"Uh, I've been working hard at studying."
"Let's have a practice session and see if you've been putting in any effort lately."
"Uh-huh."
Liu Zhi lifted her skirt, revealing a pair of pink lotus-faced embroidered shoes. Although she had made up her mind to be a slave or maid, standing in front of Cheng Da Lei like this still made her feel a little shy.
She raised her hands in an awkward posture, imitating the strange postures that Cheng Dalai had taught, and beads of sweat appeared on her face.
"What's the use of all these?"
"Haha, to be strong and healthy, one must never slack off. As the saying goes, there are people in this world who are smarter than you and work harder than you..."
"Uh, I'll try my best."
"Remember, from now on you must eat well, especially bean products. At your age, the most important thing is development." Cheng Dalai instructed patiently and tirelessly.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened and a young man stood at the entrance, staring wide-eyed at Liu Zhi who was covered in sweat.
"What are you doing!"
Cheng Dairen was stunned for a moment before recognizing that the red-lipped and white-toothed youth was actually Xiao Die.
"How did you get here?"
The little butterfly did not answer, stepped into the house, and suspiciously stared at Liu Zhi.
She was acquainted with Liu Zhi, and the Liu and Su families had some connections. The young ladies of the two families were considered to be familiar friends, which was a true bosom friend in the boudoir.
"What is she doing here?"
"Ah..." Cheng Dairen stopped Liu Zhi who was about to speak, feeling his temples throbbing nonstop and his face burning with a flush.
The little butterfly's eyes swept around the room in a circle. The two quilts on the bed were not fooling anyone, and as for the rest, there was no need to mention them.
She suddenly felt a sour nose, and then a sentence scared Cheng Dairen.
"Miss Wan is pining for you day and night, but you're here living a life of debauchery."
"Huh, is she thinking of me too?!"
Finally figured out the situation with Su Qing, Cheng Dairen felt guilty in his heart. These past few days have been busy to the point of being dizzy, really didn't have time to care about Su Qing's side.
"What's the big deal? I'll send someone to Luoye City tonight and have your young lady brought over."
"Pshaw, you're dreaming! My young mistress would never accompany you in being a bandit." Xiaodie snorted: "Besides, since your last big disturbance at the Huang residence, the whole city has been searching for you, you can't even enter the city."
"Is that so......" Cheng Dairen sighed, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Dudu, trigger the third task of Qiangdui Zhai's wife: Help Su Qing manage the wine house.
Cheng Dali's eyes rolled over and he suddenly said to Liu Zhi: "Call Huang Zongguan and Liao Jia Liao Yi."
Liu Zhi left, Cheng Dairen's gaze shifted onto Xiaodie's body, using what he thought was a magnetic voice to say: "Xiaodie...".
"What do you want to do?" Xiaodie's heart skipped a beat, the reason being that Cheng Dairen's eyes were really too lewd. Could it be that she had sent away Liu Zhi just to use force on herself?
As expected, the villain showed his ferocious face.
Cheng Dali rummaged through the house and pulled out a piece of flowered fabric: "Here, take it, make two new clothes... don't tell your young lady about what's going on here."
