How could Wang Yuyan believe his words? But…
It was too difficult. Too difficult.
It was definitely impossible for her to crack it. There was no harm in trying.
“Alright, then give it a try. Thinking about it, I’m really a little crazy, to actually believe in a good-for-nothing like you…”
After receiving an affirmative reply, Li Xuanmen also hurriedly returned to the store.
“Senior? I’m here to disturb you again,” Li Xuanmen shouted at the door. He did not dare to enter without the senior’s permission.
Very soon, such a voice came from the store.
“It’s you again! Why are you here again? Come in.”
Liu Changgong was also very puzzled. Why was he here again?
After Li Xuanmen heard the senior’s reply, he hurriedly walked in and turned to the backyard. He saw Liu Changgong, who was grinding ink as if he was going to write and paint.
When Liu Changgong saw that Li Xuanmen was the only one who came in, he was also very curious and said, “Why are you alone? Fairy Linglong didn’t come along?”
“Fairy Linglong is in closed-door cultivation. I’m the only one who came.”
Li Xuanmen had a flattering smile on his face. He picked up the ingot on the table and began to grind it in the inkstone. “Senior, let me help you grind it.”
Liu Changgong was really a little speechless. Everyone else was like this: red sleeves add fragrance, and bare hands grind.
What was with Li Xuanmen grinding it for him? Was he trying to disgust him? It made him lose the mood to write at all.
With a helpless expression, he put down the brush. Liu Changgong looked at Li Xuanmen and asked, “Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?”
Li Xuanmen went up to him and said flatteringly, “Senior, you are really smart. You know that I have something to ask of you.”
This made Liu Changgong feel a little ‘flattered’. There was something wrong with this kid. As a cultivator, even if he thought that his calligraphy and painting skills were high, he wouldn’t be so humble?
He was acting so ravenously, almost to the point of wanting it. Could it be…
Liu Changgong looked at the burning passion in Li Xuanmen’s eyes and couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart.
Could it be that this kid wanted to ‘fence’ with him because of his good looks?
Liu Changgong was already thinking about what he should do when Li Xuanmen committed adultery against him? Should he shout about indecency? Or should he take out Zhu Zhao’s token and slap it on his face…?
However, he heard Li Xuanmen say pitifully, “Senior, I’m playing blind chess with someone. I really can’t play, so I can only come to ask for your advice…”
He couldn’t play chess with someone, so he came to ask for his help?
Liu Changgong looked at Li Xuanmen with a strange expression and muttered in his heart, “With your level, even someone who knows a little about the rules of chess can beat you, right?”
Li Xuanmen liked to look for people to play chess when he was so bad, but he still came to ask for his help when he was bad. This Li Xuanmen was also a weirdo.
Sigh…
However, his spirit of liking chess was still worthy of praise. His love for chess was still worthy of praise.
How many people in the world knew that their chess skills were so poor but they were so competitive? To be able to maintain his love for chess despite playing so poorly was also worthy of encouragement.
Moreover, Li Xuanmen was a cultivator. It was rare for a cultivator to maintain such a love for chess in addition to cultivation.
The key was that look in Li Xuanmen’s eyes!
He was anxious and full of expectation, like a person who was at the end of his rope. A person who was on the verge of drowning wanted to grab hold of all the straws around him.
This look…
Liu Changgong could not help but suspect that this Li Xuanmen was gambling, right?
It was very possible! This guy’s appearance, clothes, and temperament were all but written on his face: I’m a rich man!
Young people were the most concerned about their face. They would fall for the trap once they were provoked. It was likely that he had gambled quite a lot in the end. Otherwise, he would not be so anxious.
Thinking up to this point, Liu Changgong already knew why this fellow’s expression was so flattering. He glanced at Li Xuanmen and said indifferently, “You are a little clever. You actually thought of such a method. Let me help you settle it!”
When Li Xuanmen heard these words, he thought that his senior had seen through his intentions. He lowered his head and did not dare to look into Liu Changgong’s eyes. He stuttered, “Senior… Senior… Senior, you…You know… Everything.”
Well, that’s…
Seeing Li Xuanmen with such an expression like he did wrong, Liu Changgong felt that his guess was not wrong at all. Sure enough, he was playing gambling chess with others. Otherwise, how could he be like this…
Liu Changgong shook his head and said reluctantly, “Since you and Fairy Linglong are friends, you can call me Senior. I can help you this time, but… There won’t be a next time, understand?”
Liu Changgong’s meaning was very clear.
It was very normal for young people to make mistakes. This time, you might have been cheated by someone. I will help you this time, but if you still don’t learn your lesson next time, then you can find a corner and cry by yourself.
When Li Xuanmen heard this, he did not feel good. He felt ashamed.
That’s right. The Xiaoyao Grand Sage’s residence was nearby. How could an expert like him not know? It was just disdain!
He was willing to help him because he wanted to help him, who was at such a low realm. He did not have the time for this embarrassing magic treasure.
Thinking of this, Li Xuanmen’s thoughts were retracted. He said respectfully and sincerely, “Thank you for your guidance, Senior. I swear once again that I will only do this once. Next time, I will not bother you with such matters.”
“It’s best this way… Next time, I will not make a move either.”
Liu Changgong shook his head. He also knew that as long as a person like Li Xuanmen did not change his temperament, he would be at a disadvantage sooner or later. Of course, he was playing go this time. He might not be able to help the next time he encountered something during cultivation.
“Tell me, how do you want me to help you?” Liu Changgong looked at Li Xuanmen and felt that it was better to go with him. “Forget it, I’ll go with you.”
“I wouldn’t dare to trouble you…”
Li Xuanmen took out a communication talisman from his pocket.
“This is a communication talisman from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets of the Central Plains. The magic formation engraved on it can be used even in bad weather. It was said that it can even communicate with the two worlds. Of course, no one has tested it before, but it shouldn’t be a problem to pass through the enchantment…”
Li Xuanmen took out a jade talisman and handed it to Liu Changgong nervously. He was afraid that his senior would teach him something, so his every move was in accordance with etiquette.
