Main Text Chapter 273 Borrowing some Wish Beads
Seeing that he agreed, Miao Yi finally smiled, and he let go of his words and actions, and had a good chat with the two.
When he took the initiative to toast Hongmian wine, Miao Yi asked: "Aunt, let's go around together tomorrow?"
"I won't go, you go." Hongmian shook her head.
She came to mediate between the two, not to travel around. Now that she has helped the two to resolve their past grievances, it can be regarded as completing the mission. Besides, it is not the first time she has come to Changqing Cave. She has already seen everywhere and has no interest in going there again.
Miao Yi said "Oh", and his smile became happier. He kept taking the initiative to toast with the two.
The three of them drank until it was very late before they dispersed. Gongsun Yu personally sent the two to the guest house in the back mountain to say goodbye.
As soon as he entered the house, Miao Yi waved his hand to dismiss the maid who came to serve, and turned back to signal Yuan Fang and Luo Shuangfei who followed behind him to check around.
Luo Shuangfei lowered his head and didn't see his signal at all. Only Yuan Fang quickly went to check.
Miao Yi was a little speechless looking at the listless Luo Shuangfei. After forcing him into this state, he was always like a frost-bitten eggplant. He could no longer see that cunning smile on his face. He looked pitiful all day, which made him feel a little guilty.
He reached out and patted Luo Shuangfei's thin shoulder. Luo Shuangfei trembled subconsciously, twisted his shoulder and shook off his hand.
With his palm hanging in the air, Miao Yi was stunned and asked, "Are you angry with me?"
Luo Shuangfei shook his head and said, "I dare not."
Miao Yi would not apologize. He did not think he had done anything wrong at that time. It was too much for his subordinates to do such a thing. It was okay to watch him take a bath, but the key was that there were two almost naked women in the bathtub. No man wants his woman to be seen by other men when she is naked.
But we can talk about it, he said thoughtfully: "Luo Shuangfei, what you did last time was too much."
Luo Shuangfei looked up, bit his lip and asked: "I disturbed you and your personal maid doing that, do you hate me very much? If I didn't move out at that time, would you kill me?" The last two words were said very seriously.
Under the moonlight, his eyes were a little red. It seemed that he had suffered a lot of grievances.
Miao Yi was silent for a while, did not answer, but stretched out his hand on his shoulder. He felt his body tremble again, and he subconsciously avoided it.
Miao Yi directly hooked his neck, did not let him dodge, and put his arm around his shoulders. He walked towards the hall with his arm around his shoulders. "I have already talked to the mountain master, and your identity as a casual cultivator should be resolved soon."
The words and deeds implied an apology to Luo Shuangfei in another way, but Luo Shuangfei did not say a word.
After holding his shoulders and walking up the steps of the hall, Miao Yi added, "As long as you don't mess around in Donglai Cave, you can go to the brothel in Donglai City to have fun in the future."
"Disgusting!" Luo Shuangfei suddenly spat, turned sideways and pushed away his arm on his shoulder, standing under the eaves and turning his head to look to the side.
Miao Yi was quite speechless. You like to go to the brothel to play, how did I become disgusted?
At this time, Yuan Fang, who had checked the surroundings, came back. He shook his head at Miao Yi, indicating that there was no problem, and asked again: "Sir, didn't Gongsun Yu apologize?"
Miao Yi sneered: "Qin Weiwei has repeatedly told me to do so, so it's not convenient for me to make a big fuss. If he apologized in public, it would be over, but this guy left outsiders alone and only apologized in private. He is a person who doesn't want to lose face at all. This kind of person seems to be flexible, but in fact he is narrow-minded... He won't remember your kindness even if you show mercy. Anyway, the grudge has been made, so there's no need to be polite..."
The next morning, Gongsun Yu invited Miao Yi to go sightseeing with him, accompanied by two maids, and invited Hongmian again. Hongmian still declined, but she didn't leave.
Miao Yi didn't leave Changqing Cave properly, but Hongmian was still worried about him. She was afraid that this guy would make trouble again after she left, so she decided to wait for him to leave together.
Before Gongsun Yu and Miao Yi left the mansion, Yuan Fang and Luo Shuangfei followed them and deliberately pushed Gongsun Yu's two maids to the back. Gongsun Yu looked back and felt something was wrong.
Looking back at the smiling Miao Yi, his heartstrings tightened. Would this guy want to take the opportunity to attack him?
Others might not be so, but this guy dared to kill the mountain master Xiong Xiao, so he, the cave master, was even more likely to do so. Gongsun Yu naturally had to prepare for the eventuality. He turned back and said to his maid as if nothing had happened: "How can you travel without wine and water? Go prepare some."
At the same time, he secretly sent a message to the maid to mobilize the people in the cave to come to guard.
I wanted to ask the maid to invite Hongmian as well, but Hongmian had already said that she would not come. If I told Hongmian about my worries, if nothing happened, she would definitely look down on me. I'm afraid that the reputation of being timid and cowardly would soon reach Qin Weiwei's ears, so I held back and didn't say it.
A maid responded and left quickly.
The few people walked along the verdant mountain road for a short distance, and the maid came back, followed by eight people.
Miao Yi just looked back and continued to talk and laugh with Gongsun Yu.
Walking through the verdant mountains and forests with strange peaks and beautiful scenery, Miao Yi wanted to walk farther, but Gongsun Yu didn't want to walk far, especially when he saw Miao Yi wanted to walk farther, he didn't want to go too far away from Donglai Cave, just said that there was nothing beautiful in the distance, and took Miao Yi around Changqing Cave.
Both of them had intentions related to Hongmian. One was that they didn't want Hongmian to hear the noise and come out to do something bad, and the other was that they were afraid that Hongmian wouldn't hear it because they were too far away.
Miao Yi praised the beautiful scenery all the way. When the sun was high in the sky, everyone sat down under the shade of an old tree with twisted roots. There was a simple stone table under the tree.
The two maids quickly arranged the side dishes and drinks. Miao Yi and Gongsun Yu sat down face to face, raised their glasses and talked, and each stood behind them.
After a while of nonsense, Miao Yi got to the point, "Master Gongsun, Miao has an unwelcome request. I want to borrow something from you."
Gongsun Yu asked cautiously, "What do you want to borrow from me?"
Miao Yi sighed, "Hey! You know the situation of my Donglai Cave. I have too many people and horses, and the annual consumption is too high. This year, I can't make ends meet, so I want to borrow some wish beads from Master Gongsun."
Gongsun Yu almost sprayed him in the face. You can't afford to support so many people? You asked me to borrow the wish-power beads to support your troops. You are so stupid!
However, he was not a fool. He could see that this guy was not satisfied with yesterday's apology. He said that he wanted to extort some compensation. He avoided Hongmian to make this request. It seems that this guy will not give up unless he bleeds some money today.
Besides, Miao Yi said "borrow", at least on the surface, he left a way out for him. As for whether he will return it in the future, it will definitely be a problem.
Forget it! Just think of it as spending money to avoid disaster! Gongsun Yu took a deep breath, took a step back again, and forced a smile and said, "I don't know how much Brother Miao wants to borrow. I am also short of money. I don't have more."
Miao Yi smiled and said, "Not much, just lend me two hundred low-grade wish-power beads."
After saying this, Yuan Fang held back his laughter, but Luo Shuangfei didn't react much. He didn't seem to know what two hundred low-grade wish-power beads meant to a cave.
The people behind Gongsun Yu stared with wide eyes. Gongsun Yu was also stunned. He had already stopped Miao Yi from talking, saying that he was short of money and didn't have more. He didn't expect this guy to ask for a lot.
Gongsun Yu forced a smile and said, "Brother Miao, are you kidding? Changqing City only hands over a hundred low-grade wish beads a year. In addition to the annual payment, Changqing Cave only keeps 20 beads a year. Where can I get 200 beads to lend to you?"
Miao Yi waved his hand and said, "Master Gongsun has misunderstood my meaning. I don't want you to lend me all at once. Give me 20 beads a year for ten years."
Having said that, Luo Shuangfei also understood. He tightened his lips, his thick eyebrows trembled, and finally smiled on his face, a suppressed smile.
Gongsun Yu's expression twitched. You have borrowed them all. What should I do here?
It concerns the interests of all the people in Donglai Cave. Someone behind him finally couldn't help but speak up, "Miao Ma Cheng, are you dreaming? Changqing Cave only has about 20 harvests per year. If you borrow like this for ten years, we will have no income for ten years."
The person who spoke was named Tao Ruping, the old man who threatened Yuan Fang last time at Zhenhai Mountain.
He dared not take Yan Xiu seriously last time, and this time he directly called Miao Yi Ma Cheng, of course he had something to rely on, relying on his cultivation of the ninth rank of Bailian and the background of Jianli Palace. With his cultivation, he had no choice but to serve in a cave because there were too many monks and too little meat. He really didn't take Miao Yi seriously.
When Yang Qing recruited disciples from the three major sects, the disciples of the three major sects all wanted this opportunity. Naturally, the disciples with strength won in the internal competition. Everyone didn't care about the low starting point, and believed that they would stand out sooner or later with their own cultivation. In this way, the strength of Yang Qing's subordinates increased sharply.
This can be seen from the fact that the Jade Maiden Sect and the Beast Taming Sect each have a White Lotus 7th-rank disciple in Changqing Cave.
Yuan Fang also immediately sent a secret message to Miao Yi, saying that this old man was the one who spoke rudely in Zhenhai Mountain last time.
Little did Miao Yi know that Changqing Cave could not produce so many wish beads, and he just wanted to deliberately anger the other party. If the other party did not take the bait, he would have more unpleasant words waiting. Who would have thought that someone would immediately deliver it, which would save trouble. He immediately looked at him sideways and asked, "Which sect are you from?"
This was a question that was deliberately asked, which could be seen from the other party's clothes and the four swords inserted upside down on his back.
Tao Ruping said proudly: "Jianli Palace!"
"Jianli Palace is nothing!" Miao Yi said rudely, and said contemptuously: "How dare you touch a hair of Ma Cheng?"
As soon as these words came out, three disciples of Jianli Palace stepped forward together, each with a furious look on their faces. The other party dared to insult their master. Tao Ruping pointed directly at Miao Yi and said angrily: "How dare you, a little Ma Cheng, speak so arrogantly. If you don't apologize, the cave master will give you face, and we won't be afraid of you!"
Jianli Palace did not dare to touch Miao Yi blatantly, but the three of them were already members of the rules, not to mention that Miao Yi's identity was Ma Cheng, not Shangguan, so there was really nothing to be afraid of.
