The Otherworldly God

Chapter 63 Gongsun Shouli

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Le Zhengzhi was already a little drunk.

"I didn't expect this wine to taste so good, but it's quite strong." As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass, staggered to his feet, and toasted again: "Thank you three girls today. If it weren't for the three girls, we wouldn't be able to drink such good wine, eat such good food, and even come to this painted city. Come on, let's drink."

Shui Ling touched her round belly and burped.

"Miss Qinchu spent a lot of money."

"No, the dress is cheap for me. It didn't cost me much."

"My two pots of flower dew are the most precious, but since we have distinguished guests today, naturally I will pay for them. The rest of the food money is really nothing in Qin Chu's eyes, it's just that the money for the premium daughter's red wine you just drank was a bit more."

Le Zheng Shui Ling then remembered that she and Yao Yao had just had a drinking contest and drank up all the top-quality daughter red wine in the store. Now that she thought about it, such a drinking contest was a waste of money.

"I don't care, she said she paid for it."

"We've already agreed on the money for the daughter's red wine. I'll pay for it." Yaoyao seemed to have read Le Zheng Shui Ling's mind. She stood up, staggered to Lian Yi, leaned against her, took out her purse, shook it, and asked, "Is the money in here enough to pay?"

Lian Yi picked up the purse and weighed it.

"It's just so-so. It's okay if it's not enough."

As he spoke, he hid the purse in his sleeve.

"Hey, you really took them all?"

"It's not reasonable to run a business at a loss, right? Even sisters settle accounts clearly, let alone you and me."

Yaoyao hung her face, feeling heartbroken.

"If I had known it was so expensive, I would have wasted all the wine."

Le Zheng Yuhua didn't like such social gatherings in the first place, and the other party was all women. Apart from Sanye, there was no one else to drink and chat with.

So he remained silent almost throughout the whole process, unless the other party spoke first, then he would just give a simple reply with two sentences, and always end the topic with a sentence.

When he came in, he had already noticed that there was a balcony-like place in this private room, so he got up and went out to get some fresh air.

The balcony was not very big, and faced the street. He could hear the hawking sounds that he could not hear inside just now. But he was still a little surprised that a screen could have such a soundproofing effect.

He looked back and saw that the painting on the screen was quite good, a lifelike scroll of flowers and birds. The bird on it made Le Zheng Yuhua feel a little strange. Just when he wanted to take a closer look, it suddenly flapped its wings and flew away. Le Zheng Yuhua then realized that the painting was alive.

Considering that this was a world full of demons and ghosts, a "living" painting was not surprising. He turned around, held onto the railing, and looked toward the street. There was nothing that interested him, only one person.

In front of the mask stall, Le Zheng Yuhua saw a man holding a wooden flute. He looked familiar, like his childhood playmate in the orphanage who had grown up.

"Gongsun Shouli."

Le Zheng Yuhua turned her head and saw Qin Chu, who was also looking at the man. As if she knew that she was interested in him, Qin Chu introduced him herself.

Gongsun Shouli is the future heir of the Gongsun family of the Taoist League. Gongsun is the head of the Taoist League and his father is the leader of the Taoist League.

Gongsun Shouli was naturally very happy to be able to come to such a remote place, and to Huacheng, one of the places that interested him.

However, the people arranged by his father kept following him, which gave him a headache, so he found an opportunity to get rid of them.

He took off the mask on his face and smiled smugly at the guards who had long disappeared.

"Sir, would you like to buy a mask?"

He looked at the mask he had just hurriedly taken out for disguise and thought it was not bad, so he took out the silver and paid the boss.

"Thank you, sir."

He turned around and found that there was another person beside him, a woman. She was wearing a mask and her appearance could not be seen, but she gave him a very familiar feeling. He reached out to take off the mask on her face, and she stood there obediently, as if waiting for him to take off the mask.

"Little Lord."

He was about to bump into her, but was distracted by the guards. When he looked again, she was gone. Gongsun Shouli chased her for two steps. First, he didn't know which direction she went, and second, he felt his gaze, so he stopped and looked up.

When Le Zheng Yuhua's eyes met, the two were like old friends who had met again after a long separation, with a sense of déjà vu and mutual attraction.

Qin Chu saw that they wanted to get to know each other, so she turned around and went downstairs. She said a few words to him, and he followed her in.

Yue Zheng Yuhua guessed that she had invited him up, so she walked in.

Le Zheng Yuhua was not walking fast, and happened to meet the eyes of Gongsun Shouli who had just come in. The two looked at each other, unwilling to look away for a long time.

"Oh, are you guys in love at first sight?" Le Zheng Shui Ling stood up, and seeing that his attention had finally shifted away from Le Zheng Yu Hua, she quickly bowed and introduced herself: "Trainee Taoist Le Zheng Shui Ling, nice to meet you, young master."

"Hello, Miss Shui Ling. My name is Gongsun Shouli, nice to meet you all."

"Gongsun? The Gongsun family of the Dao League?"

"Exactly."

Le Zheng Shuiling immediately showed a look of disgust and sat down, indicating that she didn't want to pay any more attention to him.

"He is the young leader of the Dao League. Shui Ling, your attitude is unacceptable."

Le Zhengli reminded her softly, but Le Zheng Shuiling just sneered at her.

"So what if I'm the young leader? I'm the same when I'm the leader."

"Did Miss Shui Ling misunderstand me?"

"No, no, you haven't seen him, so where does the misunderstanding come from? Oh, I am Taoist Practicing Yue Zheng, and I am honored to meet the Young Alliance Leader."

"I am... what am I?"

"Master, you are drunk. This is our three masters, Master Zhi."

"Shou Li has met Master Zhi."

Master Zhi glanced at him, sneered, and sat down.

"I can't stand the Gongsun family the most. They are so arrogant and claim to be the number one family in our Dao League, just like the royal family of our human race. Humph, I'm so embarrassed."

There is no royal family among the human race. Only a few races such as the demon race and the monster race have royal families. Moreover, the Taoist Alliance has always advocated equal governance. After being told this, Gongsun Shouli still didn't quite understand, but he admitted his mistake first.

"Master Zhi is right."

Le Zhengli smiled secretly and drank silently, as if he was watching a good show.

"As expected, the master and his disciples are the most interesting ones. I made the right decision."

"Don't think I can fool you just because you look like you are asking for advice."

"Master Zhi is absolutely right. Shouli must reflect on this."

Qin Chu knew that if they continued the conversation like this, something bad would happen. In addition, she knew that Shou Li cared more about Le Zheng Yuhua, and Le Zheng Yuhua must also want to talk to him, so she stood up.
