Zhu Changyang was completely unprepared when he heard such a big piece of gossip and was stunned for a moment.
The live broadcast room was also excited.
[??? My goodness, is this the beauty from the cultivation world? She’s so fierce!]
[Damn it! I was caught off guard by a mouthful of gossip. Please ask clearly and don't leave out any details. I will judge for you!]
[Emm, if I understand correctly, this is the cultivation version of the sister-in-law war???]
[Oh wow! So exciting!!!]
Seeing this, Shen Zha gave up trying to cover up and said with a bitter face, "Senior sister, Mr. Zi will marry Miss Hua in two days, why are you pestering me?"
"What do you know?" Ming Rusu's bright eyes flickered, showing some tenderness, "He said in the letter he wrote to me that he had to marry Hua Qingdai, and the one he really loves in his heart is me."
This was unexpected again. Shen Zha was stunned: "Ah?"
Zhu Changyang hadn't recovered from his shock yet. He felt that the words sounded familiar, and subconsciously complained: "He wouldn't say that he had to sacrifice his personal feelings for the sake of his master's future and the development of both factions. In fact, he must be in great pain inside..."
Ming Rusu suddenly turned her head: "How do you know?"
Zhu Changyang burst out laughing: "... Really?"
Ming Rusu's eyes changed when she looked at him: "Do you know Jiuwen? Did he tell you?"
Zhu Changyang waved his hand quickly: "No."
He doesn't know that popular young actor at all, he just watched too many melodramatic TV dramas.
The lines that Ming Rusu just conveyed were so typical that his DNA was moved after hearing two sentences, and he couldn't control his desire to complain.
Facing Ming Rusu's question, he didn't know how to answer. After hesitating for a moment, he said vaguely, "It just happened that the storybooks in my hometown all said so."
Ming Rusu was suspicious: "Is it written in the storybook?"
Zhu Changyang looked at the floor: "Yes."
He wanted to get away with it, but Ming Rusu was unexpectedly perceptive. She sensed something strange and asked immediately, "What else is written in the book? Tell me in detail."
Seeing that his sister was finally willing to listen, Shen Zha frantically tugged at Zhu Changyang's clothes and tearfully begged, "Brother Zhu, please talk to me and help persuade my sister!"
Zhu Changyang was simply at a loss for words. How did he become an emotional mediator just by making a casual complaint
He looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "But I don't know the situation of Senior Sister. Isn't this inappropriate?"
Ming Rusu said straightforwardly: "This is simple, I'll tell you and it will be clear."
After saying that, he put his fingers together and drew a circle. The long sword hovering in front of him turned around and flew back into the mustard seed bag, and then he glared at Shen Zha.
Shen Zha understood what he meant and quickly shouted to the counter: "Boss, quickly clear out a good private room and prepare tea, water and snacks."
The shopkeeper came out from under the table: "Okay."
In an instant, all arrangements for Zhu Changyang were made clear.
Zhu Changyang: “…”
Looking at the situation, he estimated that unless he told those present a few classic plays, it would be difficult to end the show.
Before that, Ming Rusu first told the story of how she fell in love with Zi Jiuwen.
Half a year ago, Ming Rusu had achieved success in her cultivation and entered the Golden Elixir Stage. In order to seek further improvement, she went down the mountain alone to practice. By chance, she met Zi Jiuwen who was also traveling abroad.
Zi Jiuwen fell in love with Ming Rusu at first sight, and after that he often "encountered" her by chance, saving her from danger at the right time. He was also caring and concerned about her, and his tenderness and affection were obvious.
Under his offensive, Ming Rusu quickly fell in love with him and started a relationship with him.
From then on, the two of them often traveled together, and they spent several months like this, enjoying a carefree life that was envied by only mandarin ducks and no one to be envied by the gods.
It was not until last month that Zi Jiuwen received a message from the Yuxu Sect saying that there was an important matter to discuss and he had to go back to report. The two had to say goodbye reluctantly.
Before they parted, Zi Jiuwen repeatedly promised Ming Rusu that when he returned this time, he would report their affairs to his master, and then go to the Zhan Cang Sect to propose marriage and marry her.
Ming Rusu was naturally delighted, and immediately packed up her things and returned to Zhan Cang Sect, waiting for Zijiu to come and ask.
This wait lasted for more than half a month. During this period, the two of them still maintained communication through the imperial edict, but Zi Jiuwen's attitude was obviously much colder than before.
Sometimes, several days after Ming Rusu sent a message, he would reply indifferently and the content was very brief.
Ming Rusu had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but every time Zijiu asked, he made the excuse that he was busy with his master's business, so she could only believe him.
As a result, half a month ago, Ming Rusu suddenly received a farewell letter from Zi Jiuwen.
It turned out that Zijiuwen's master ordered him to go back because the owner of Changchun Tower personally went to the Yuxu Sect and proposed a marriage proposal.
The owner of Changchun Tower has only one daughter, Hua Qingdai, who not only has an honorable status but also has both talent and beauty. She may also take over Changchun Tower in the future.
Under such circumstances, Changchunlou was naturally very cautious in choosing its husband.
Looking at the entire Yuxu Sect, no matter in terms of age, fame, appearance and strength, the person who is most compatible with Hua Qingdai is none other than Zi Jiuwen.
Zi Jiuwen explained what had happened in just a few words. Then, just as Zhu Changyang had complained before, he spent a very long time telling Ming Rusu how painful it was for him and how he was helpless.
To sum up, as the eldest disciple of the Yuxu Sect, he needs to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the development of the sect, and the marriage with Changchun Tower is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
So even though he still loved Ming Rusu deeply, for the sake of his master, he had to cut off his feelings in tears and bid farewell to Ming Rusu with great pain.
After Ming Rusu received his message, he was both angry and anxious, and immediately chased to the Yuxu Sect.
Zi Jiuwen left Yuxu Sect first and told Ming Rusu that in order to avoid being saddened by the scene, he decided not to see or communicate with her anymore.
Afterwards, news came from Cangbo City that Zi Jiuwen and Hua Qingdai had set a date for their wedding, which would be at the end of this month, causing an uproar on the mainland.
Ming Rusu would not let it go, so she rushed to Cangbo City and bought wedding invitations on the black market, vowing to get an explanation.
When the Zhan Cang Sect learned of the situation, they naturally felt a headache.
The Yuxu Sect and Changchun Tower are both among the best sects in Piaomiao Continent. If Ming Rusu-ruo makes a scene at their wedding, the consequences will be difficult to deal with.
Embarrassment is a small matter, but she is afraid that if the two factions join forces, her master may not be able to protect her.
As a result, the Zhan Cang Sect had no choice but to send people out to find her and stop her from causing trouble.
As for what comes after, it is what we have just seen.
After hearing what happened, Zhu Changyang was speechless for a long time... He really didn't know what to say.
This whole story can only be described in one word: typical, too typical.
After a long silence, Zhu Changyang finally found his voice. He looked at Ming Rusu and said in a daze, "Senior sister, how about I tell you some of the more popular stories in our hometown?"
Since he didn't know Zi Jiuwen, even if he had many guesses in his heart, it was not convenient for him to make any comments on his own. It would be better to let the person involved make his own judgment.
As for the "storybooks" he mentioned, they were actually the TV dramas he watched before he traveled through time.
You don’t even need to watch TV series, just browse the forums and you will see a bunch of similar posts.
These daily posts are really unremarkable to contemporary netizens, but in the world of cultivation, they are still quite fascinating.
It was the first time Ming Rusu heard such a story. At first she was very interested, but gradually her face became gloomy.
"Indeed." Ming Rusu sneered, "Zijiuwen this bastard is even worse than the one in the story."
Zhu Changyang: “… Ahem.”
I have to say, Senior Sister is a really passionate person.
Ming Rusu had actually noticed something a long time ago, but Zi Jiuwen acted too sincere and affectionate, and she was inevitably fooled by his sweet words. There was also an element of self-deception in this.
But now, looking at other people's stories from the perspective of an outsider, she suddenly understood.
I reread what Zi Jiuwen said and found that it clearly cannot stand up to careful scrutiny.
In the final analysis, Zi Jiuwen simply wanted to be the son-in-law of Changchun Tower. After all, Ming Rusu was just one of the many disciples of Zhancang Sect, and the benefits she could bring to him were far less than those of Hua Qingdai.
To take a step back, even if what Zi Jiuwen said was truly sincere, he was just a weak and incompetent man who had no autonomy, and was not worthy of her trust.
Ming Rusu recounted in her mind what Zi Jiuwen had said and done one by one. The more she thought about it, the clearer she became. The clearer she became, the more angry she became. She gritted her teeth and said, "He was so good to me in the beginning. He even gave me the sword tassel that he had used for many years."
As he spoke, he took out a sword tassel woven with red rope from the mustard seed bag, "This was made by his mother for him before he became his disciple. Although it is just an ordinary object, it is his most precious thing..."
Zhu Changyang was so upset that he couldn't help but say, "Maybe he says this to every girl."
Ming Rusu paused, feeling full of emotion, and looked at him slowly: "Why, there is also this part in the storybook?"
"It's not a storybook, I heard it from others..." Zhu Changyang felt very pressured by being looked at, so he forced himself to laugh dryly, "It is said that some weird poor men would do this, such as giving the same heart-shaped stone to seven girls."
Everyone: “…”
Ming Rusu closed her eyes and felt that all the tenderness and affection of the past had disappeared at this moment.
Shen Zha wiped his sweat and whispered, "Senior Sister, I think Zi Jiuwen is a treacherous man. Don't worry about him anymore. Let's go back to Tunchuan Mountain."
"No." Ming Rusu opened her eyes, her face became colder and fiercer, "If he really lied to me, then I can't let him get what he wants."
Shen Zha was about to cry, and he looked at Zhu Changyang desperately, giving him crazy hints with his eyes.
Zhu Changyang also wanted to cry. She really treated him as her uncle.
There was no other way. The top brother on the list had given too much. As the saying goes, one should not give back what one has received. Zhu Changyang hesitated for a moment and asked Ming Rusu, "Sister, what are you going to do?"
Ming Rusu didn't have any new ideas for the moment. After thinking for a while, he snorted, "Let's just follow the original plan and grab the bride."
Zhu Changyang couldn't understand: "No way, you still want to be with him?"
Ming Rusu said, "Pah," "What are you thinking? I'll just snatch him away and then abandon him. Anyway, I can't let him get what he wants."
Zhu Changyang was shocked by her powerful thinking and said in surprise: "Excuse me, Senior Sister, aren't you trying to make him look good?"
Bride kidnapping is a common occurrence in TV dramas, but it is extremely unlikely to happen in reality.
Especially since the two major factions were getting married, if Zijiu hadn't asked Ming Rusu for her consent, it was obvious that she wouldn't have been allowed to take him away.
By then everyone will only think that Zi Jiuwen is so charming that Ming Rusu is crazy about him.
To take a step back, even if the bride-stealing was successful, the one who would be truly embarrassed would be Miss Hua from Changchun Tower.
For Zi Jiuwen, it just added another romantic affair and did not cause any substantial harm at all.
In other words, the failed attempt to kidnap the bride hurt Ming Rusu herself.
The bride kidnapping was successful, and the innocent Miss Hua was harmed.
Anyway, the real culprit was not harmed.
Therefore, this approach is not advisable from any perspective.
Ming Rusu had always acted on impulse. After listening to Zhu Changyang's analysis, she was shocked to realize that this operation had so many loopholes, and she suddenly realized something.
After a long while, he finally reluctantly loosened his teeth: "Is this the only way to let it go?"
Zhu Changyang was also quite dissatisfied: "The public opinion in the world is like this. Whenever a man and a woman are together, the woman is always the one who suffers in the end... Maybe Miss Hua was also deceived."
Ming Rusu's heart suddenly moved when he heard this, and he thought: "You are right, things shouldn't be like this!"
Shen Zha was relieved when he saw that she no longer insisted, and said, "Senior Sister, do you agree to go back with me?"
Ming Rusu shook her head: "Let me think about it again."
The topic came to an end here. Shen Zha was helpless for a moment and could only sigh. Several people stood up and prepared to leave.
Jun Shu said nothing the whole time, looking as if it had nothing to do with him, but at this moment he suddenly perked up a bit, showing some reluctance to leave: "You're leaving now?"
Shen Zha was puzzled: "Why, do you have something else to do?"
Jun Shu paused for a moment, then waved his sleeves: "It's okay."
Zhu Changyang looked at the sky and thought there was still time, so he planned to continue going to the materials store.
As soon as he left, Jun Shu followed lazily. Zhu Changyang understood what he meant by looking at his eyes and took out his bicycle very tactfully.
Sure enough, Jun Shu's eyes curved, and he immediately jumped into the back seat of the car skillfully: "Let's go."
Zhu Changyang: fine.
As I was pedaling my bike resignedly, Jun Shu suddenly spoke up: "What you just said is quite interesting. Tell me a few more."
Zhu Changyang: "Were you listening just now?"
Seeing that Jun Shu looked indifferent the whole time, he thought that he didn't take it to heart.
It turned out that not only did he listen, but he also felt unsatisfied!
That’s why you were reluctant to leave just now!
Jun Shu even asked, "Tell me the whole story about the guy who passed the imperial examination and abandoned his childhood sweetheart to pursue the princess. Did he get his comeuppance later? Who wrote this story? It's really outrageous..."
Zhu Changyang: "... You still remember it clearly."
You feel disgusted but continue to listen uncontrollably. What’s the difference between you and Pujiang’s audience
Of course there are differences. The requirements of Pujiang audiences are obviously much higher, and the barrage is full of crazy complaints at this time.
[Did I hear correctly? Didn’t Chang Yang tell the senior sister about the bloody dramas produced by Pujiang Film and Television in the early days? Such a tacky plot! ]
[Don’t despise the old melodrama, it’s still as tacky now! What’s the point of designing a plot line for a beautiful NPC! What era is this? There’s still this kind of love story where two women fight for one man. I’m going to vomit!!!]
[I agree. I really don’t like watching this kind of drama where a beautiful woman is circling around a scumbag. Fortunately, Chang Yang persuaded me to stop, otherwise I would have been so angry that I would have quit the live broadcast room! ]
[But, our baby Jun Shu seems to like this kind of plot very much... ]
[It's so funny, Jun Shu doesn't like anything, from bicycles to melodramas, he enjoys them all, I think he must be obsessed with Chang Yang]
[Really! Crispy Duck people are ecstatic!]
The author has something to say:
Legend has it that by collecting all seven stones, you can summon a love master.
Xiaokui: Telling stories? I’m good at this!
Jun Shu: ? Tell me in detail?
