Chapter 37: Renewal of Incidents
Painted Skin Manning's performance is very good, but he has a warm feeling that he will be saved by the king and will stay with him for life.
If it were a normal young warrior, he would be somewhat touched when he saw such an infatuated love for a beautiful woman, and he would even think that it was fate or love.
But Zhou Yuan was different. He didn't even know if he could defeat this level 15 elite monster, so he couldn't think of acting with it.
Therefore, Huapi Manning's infatuated courtship failed to keep Zhou Yuan in the end.
"My son, there are many talented young men in the county. Since that boy is an idiot, let's find a better one."
“Dad, I don’t want anyone else but him.
My daughter fell in love at first sight, no matter how hard it is to tolerate those empty talkers, she is willing to wait until Yuan Lang changes her mind and marry her only to him. "
"What a bad fate, if my son didn't fall in love, how could a little Jing'an enter the front door of my house.
He was still not satisfied and refused again and again. It’s okay not to accept such idiots. My son is just waiting. I will forget about it after a while. "
"I can't forget, how dare I forget."
Under the respectful farewell from everyone in the Zhang Mansion, Zhou Yuan and his party gradually drifted away.
Only one daughter leaned on the vermilion doorframe looking out with a look of sadness and resentment. She looked like an affectionate girl who was sad to say goodbye to her lover.
Zhou Yuan looked back and saw someone with ulterior motives and charming with love, but what the soldiers saw was full of deep affection and pure love of a girl.
"Brother, you are so cruel. It's not too late to look back now. If you regret leaving here again, it will be difficult to enter the Zhang Mansion's gate."
"Brother Cai, you really believe that love can develop between one person and another."
"I don't believe it, but my sister-in-law, Biyu, is kind. If she can want anything from you, what else can you want?"
"That's hard to say, just in case you want to take advantage of me."
"Nonsense. Although you look like a warrior, there are many good-looking young men from aristocratic families. If Manning judged a person by his appearance, he would already have a family."
Cai Cheng didn't know that Zhang Manning, who was as graceful as a flower and jade, was a ghost with painted skin.
As he said himself, his sister-in-law Manning was loved by her relatives and friends for her beauty and beauty. This beauty can really confuse people and cover up their shortcomings.
As a result, all the soldiers accompanying him believed that Zhang Manning was interested in Zhou Yuan out of love and not for ulterior motives, not to mention that Cai Cheng also had a family filter.
"Zhou Yuan, I usually thought you had ambitions, but I didn't know your ambitions were so firm.
I am your commander and brother Manning. As the elder of the two of you, I should not interfere with the friendship between you juniors.
But I still want to say the last sentence, you are right to resist the temptation. You have a low position and live in the military camp for a long time. It will be a disaster rather than a blessing if you leave your beautiful family to guard the empty room alone. "
"Brother Cai knows me. Beauty is beautiful. It is of no use to me. How can it be beautiful?"
After arriving at Yaowufang, Zhou Yuan and Cai Cheng and others parted ways. They returned to the Army Sima Mansion, and Zhou Yuan returned to the inn.
The goods promised by the Zhang Mansion would be sent directly to the Army Sima Mansion, and Cai Cheng said that Zhou Yuan's share would be sent to the military camp to avoid paying interest to the bank.
In this way, the matter was apparently over, but Zhou Yuan did not think that the painters would give up.
As long as he is still in this city, the painters will definitely create some troubles and guide and control his behavior.
Therefore, after he returned to the guest room, he used the special prop [Painted Skin Scoundrel] without hesitation.
He wanted to see if the painted skins could still recognize him after wearing this skin, and what they would do if they lost their target.
The moment the special props took effect, Zhou Yuan felt like he was covered in a set of all-round leather armor.
He pulled the skin of the outer cover a few times and found through testing that this prop was not just a simple change of appearance, but also had a certain defensive function.
"The painting-skinned ghost's abilities are mostly in this skin. Without this skin, he is just an invisible ghost."
"Boom."
Zhou Yuan pushed open the window of the guest room and jumped from the second floor.
After he walked out of the shady alley, he went straight to the nearest red house and brothel.
The painted skins there are the best test subjects. If they think Zhou Yuan is of the same race, the [Painted Skin Scoundrel] prop will really work wonders.
"Uncle, come and play, dear brother, look at me..."
"Yeah, I dropped my fan. Master, help me bring it up."
When Zhou Yuan arrived at the door of Xiuzhao Tower, he saw a round fan falling from the sky.
The waiter in the building picked up the fan and put it into his hand, then pushed him straight to the second floor.
Zhou Yuan followed Shan Ruliu, stepped onto the wooden stairs, turned around and climbed to the flower terrace on the second floor.
A beautiful [Level 5 Painted Skin Girl] trotted towards him, like a young girl finally meeting her lover.
"What are you doing here, you scoundrel? But my mother at home has some instructions."
"Good sister, mother is fine, I just miss you."
Painted Skin Girl's reaction convinced Zhou Yuan that they had a way to identify the same kind, and they regarded him as the same kind.
In view of this, he stretched out his hand and pinched a soft object, which made him squeal and confirmed that the hand of the painted girl was very serious.
"Damn it, if you want it, come to my room at night and feed you a few mouthfuls while the guests are resting."
"Good sister, we are a family. Why are we still looking for opportunities to feed you? Why don't you hang out for me for a day."
"Bah, you scoundrels have no money and no energy, so what's the benefit of me having fun with you?
Come on, don't stop me from doing business. "
Although Zhou Yuan was kicked out, he still collected enough information.
That painted-skinned girl is no different from ordinary people in terms of the feel of her hand, the strength to push people, and the charm between her eyebrows.
How can one distinguish true from false with such reality? No wonder they can live hidden in the city.
After walking out of Xiuzhao Tower, he originally planned to go to Chunrongfang to see if those painted skins would make any next move.
Unexpectedly, before he walked out of the market, he saw several young men from aristocratic families and servants numbering twenty or thirty rushing toward the inn where he lived before.
"Where is Zhou Yuan of the capital of Jing'an? I am Wang Li, the son of the prime minister of the county.
You are such a ignorant soldier. When you first entered the city, you didn't even know how to pay a visit to the superior officer. You asked us to come and invite you personally. "
This was the first time Zhou Yuan saw the arrogance and domineering behavior of the Yameni. Cai Cheng was not counted as he was a military attaché who fought bloody battles, so he could not be considered as a man who had overshadowed the Yameni.
Wang Liming, the son of the county prime minister, was obviously looking for trouble. His father probably didn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed his stupid son to provoke the officers in the camp.
Probably because of the martial arts culture of the Wei Dynasty, the chief minister in the county, although named prime minister, was nothing more than a fifth-grade civil servant.
This rank is the same as that of Cai Cheng's Army Sima, so how can he have the confidence to provoke the talented military attache in the military fort.
In addition, Jingan is both a serious seventh-grade military officer. Due to their different affiliations, the county minister cannot be arrogant when he comes, let alone his son.
"Zhou Yuan, don't be timid. Come out and see me."
The innkeeper seemed to be begging, but in fact he didn't dare to take a step forward.
When the guest room door was violently pushed open, the shopkeeper was even more frightened.
It's bitter that his small shop actually triggered a civil and military dispute. Why is Wang Li, the son of the county prime minister, a stupid young man? I'm afraid he was used as a weapon.
Several young masters from aristocratic families who were accompanying him also felt that they were all persons of status and should sit down and discuss it first. How could they recklessly turn against each other?
"Brother Wang, if we continue to make trouble after this, I'm afraid the military attachés in the camp will be dissatisfied.
After all, they have swords, guns, and armor, so I'm afraid you won't be able to get any advantage in your brocade clothes. "
"I don't care, I'm willing to do anything for Manning.
Why did Manning fall in love with that uninteresting martial artist? My heart was as sharp as a knife, how could I not be angry. "
"What's even more egregious is that he turned down Manning.
Manning was no longer worthy of him, how dare he reject Manning. "
