Chapter 17 Liar(1/2)
He rubbed his hands in embarrassment:
"Hehe, girl, don't be angry. The old man is either following you on purpose, or he thinks that ten thousand taels are making too much money! Even though we are short of money, we can't bully you, a little girl, against our conscience, right?"
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows.
"If you came for this, it's really unnecessary, because in my eyes, the redstone is indeed worth ten thousand taels."
It's more than just value, it's simply super value!
But the old man didn't believe it at all and shook the palm-leaf fan in his hand:
"Hey! Girl, don't be so polite! The red stone that the old man has seen is 90,000 without 100,000, which is really not worth 10,000 taels! If this is the case, why don't I give you something to compensate?"
Chu Liuyue shook her head: "No interest."
The old man's face suddenly collapsed.
This girl is too difficult to deal with!
"Why are you here or you're better off talking about it."
The old man looked calm when he saw Chu Liuyue's expression. His black and bright eyes seemed to have seen through everything, and he couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed.
"Actually... I just want to ask you a question: Who is your master?"
Although there was no power fluctuation on her body, and those movements were very simple, he could tell at a glance that it was definitely derived from some kind of advanced martial arts or techniques!
Behind her, there must be a top expert!
Otherwise, she would never be able to suppress a third-level warrior like Lu Zhitao so easily!
His life has been very boring over the years. It would be great if he could compete with the other party!
Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes.
"If I tell you, what are the benefits?"
The old man scratched his head in distress.
He doesn't have much money, and the other party doesn't look short of money...
After thinking for a long time, he finally slapped his head and turned out a jade pendant.
"Why not exchange this? This is worth a little money!"
Chu Liuyue looked down and her eyes flashed slightly.
It turned out to be a jade pendant carved with a mysterious talisman!
And it seems that the level of the Xuan Talisman seems to be quite low...
The value of this thing is definitely not low! He actually gave it out so casually?
"really?"
"Of course, take it seriously!"
Seeing that Chu Liuyue seemed to be a little moved, the old man quickly stepped forward a few steps and stuffed the jade pendant into her hands.
"Anyway, I don't use this thing very much. If you like it, just take it!"
Chu Liuyue thought for a moment and simply took the things under her.
Since the other party dares to give it away, she will naturally dare to accept it!
"Okay, then I'll tell the truth-I don't have a master."
Chu Liuyue said simply and frankly.
The old man's expression, which was originally full of anticipation and excitement, suddenly froze.
"What? Without a master? How is this possible!? Can you learn your skills yourself??"
Chu Liuyue coughed.
She really can't explain this.
"I really don't have a master."
Of course the old man didn't believe it, and grabbed Chu Liuyue's wrist:
"If you don't tell the truth-"
Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped and a look of shock gradually appeared in his eyes when he looked at Chu Liuyue.
"You...you..."
Chu Liuyue frowned slightly, intending to break away.
"...Are you the girl from the Chu family?"
Chu Liuyue was stunned.
The other party recognized her without seeing her face?
But in her impression, there is no such person?
The old man felt even more unbelievable when he saw that she didn't speak:
"Are you really Chu Liuyue? Your original vein is not--"
It turned out to be recognized by taking the pulse.
Chu Liuyue breathed a sigh of relief and simply took off her hat.
"I am indeed Chu Liuyue, who are you?"
Seeing the beautiful face that appeared in front of you, the old man was stunned for a moment.
"So you are already so big... No, your original vein-"
Halfway through his speech, he suddenly stopped and didn't know what to say for a moment.
When Chu Liuyue was young, he did take her pulse and repeatedly confirmed that the original pulse in her body was naturally incomplete and she would never be able to practice in this life!
But at that moment, he accidentally touched her pulse and found that there seemed to be a subtle change in her original pulse!
Chu Liuyue looked at the old man's changing expression and narrowed her eyes slightly.
She has just begun to repair her original pulse now, which is impossible for ordinary people to notice.
But the old man could see it all at once, and it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
It is very likely that he is a doctor!
At the least, he is also a powerful man with extraordinary strength!
"Girl, tell the truth to the old man, who is helping you?"
The old man changed his idle appearance and looked much more serious. He let go of Chu Liuyue's hand and stared at her eyes carefully and asked.
Chu Liuyue shook her head sincerely.
"It's really not. If you don't believe it, you can go and inquire in person. Although I am nominally the eldest lady of the Chu family, I have lived a worse life than a servant in these years. Being able to save my life is considered luck, let alone other things?"
The old man is skeptical.
He has not been concerned about the world for many years and has no idea about many things in the imperial capital.
But Chu Liuyue is born to be useless, and you can guess what life you have been in these years by thinking about it.
If someone is behind the scenes, she and Chu Ning have no backing, who can they find?
"…What the girl said makes sense, but your original vein is really hard to explain!"
The old man thought hard and could not guess the reason why Chu Liuyue's original vein suddenly changed. He couldn't help but knock on his head with a palm fan with a headache.
Chu Liuyue glanced at the sky.
"If you have nothing else, I will go back first."
Although the identity of the old man cannot be confirmed, Chu Liuyue is sure that his origin is definitely not simple.
Such a person will naturally not offend her now.
The old man waved casually, still frowned and thought about the problem he had not figured out.
“After all…”
Chu Liuyue didn't stay much and left quickly.
In the narrow alley, only the old man was left thinking hard.
…
Chu Liuyue returned to the Chu family and everything was as usual.
The new medicinal herbs have been delivered, but she still boiled Chu Ning's medicine first, and when Chu Ning comes back, she will deliver it to her.
Chu Ning took the medicine without saying a word.
The initial doubts had already been eliminated as his health improved significantly.
Now in his eyes, his daughter is an absolute genius!
