Qin Shi Ambitious

Page 149

Sensing that time had almost passed, Lu Wei's slight tendency to stand up prompted the Moon Goddess to release her embrace with satisfaction.

Faced with this question, she tidied her frizzy side hair and said calmly, "You are his father. After he is born, he will stay in Daze Mountain and cannot return to the Yin-Yang Family with me. You shall decide his name."

"This year is the year of Guiyou."

The head of the hall had little experience in naming children, but he did not refuse the right to name the child that the Moon Goddess had voluntarily relinquished.

Without much hesitation, Lu Wei casually replied:

"According to the theory of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, the Heavenly Stem Gui belongs to Yin Water, and the Earthly Branch You belongs to Yin Metal. It is a mutual generation of Metal and Water."

"The Na Yin element is Sword Edge Gold, and it is also associated with water, so it is named 'Hidden', what do you think?"

The original meaning of '潜' is to dive into water, and it also means to hide or keep secret.

This aligns with Lu Wei and the Moon Goddess's current situation in the world and the Yin-Yang School, and the dragon that has not yet been revealed after 'lurking' represents the ambition of 'a sage in a lower position, hidden and not yet manifest'.

"You can decide for yourself."

The moon goddess had no objection.

...

Silently leaving the house where the Moon Goddess rested, Lu Wei walked outside.

The child's arrival was sudden, but beyond the significance of the child itself, his relationship with the Moon Goddess will become even more trusting and solid because of this child.

Ji Yan was practicing his sword in the open space outside the house.

Lu Ni, Xue Nu, and Duanmu Rong were all watching from the side.

The three women had different expressions when they saw the hall master come out.

Lu Ni remained calm, Xue Nu was somewhat anxious and even resentful, and Duanmu Rong's expression became increasingly complicated. After their eyes met, she immediately looked away.

Putting Lu Ni aside for the moment, Xue Nu and Xiao Duanmu have a special relationship with him. Both women are proud in matters of the heart. Even though they never thought they could be with him alone from the beginning, they still had some illusions.

It's understandable that people might feel jealous now that someone has suddenly appeared with a child.

But while he understood, he couldn't afford to spend too much time dealing with the relationships between these women in the backyard. There were still many plans to be made in Daze Mountain and throughout the world.

Fortunately, although Xue Nu and Xiao Duanmu were arrogant, they couldn't be assertive in front of him. He only needed to exert his strength on them one by one, so he didn't need to worry too much.

He blatantly touched the snow woman's slightly puffed-up cheek and told her to come to the accounting office at 5 PM to report on the past year's work. The latter nodded limply.

Immediately afterwards, he escorted Duanmu Rong to take care of Nian Duan.

Walking on the path of Daze Mountain, Xiao Duanmu took a few steps away from Brother Lu, who had been getting close to the Moon Goddess and the Snow Maiden in front of him.

Seeing her behavior, Lu Wei chuckled inwardly, but didn't take it to heart.

"How many of those Energy Pills are left?"

Two copies

After asking the question, I waited about ten breaths before the girl gave a cold reply.

"I can hold on for a while longer. I'll ask for a few more complete pills in a few days."

"Thank you, Senior Lu."

Faced with this obvious abnormality, Lu Wei stopped and sighed, which was also quite unusual.

Duanmu Rong initially wanted to ignore it and walk away, but her body subconsciously stopped her and turned around to bite her lip and meet the eyes of the hall master.

Xiao Duanmu is very obedient and conservative. Although she had several intimate encounters with Lu Wei while treating the epidemic in Jinghu County, neither of them expressed their feelings, and they maintained an ambiguous relationship with occasional unintentional physical contact.

The Hall Master initially only intended to scheme against this 'Little Fairy Doctor,' as she herself was a future talent who still needed to be nurtured.

After several encounters, I found that Duanmu Rong was of decent value, occasionally displaying a certain cuteness, and had a pleasant herbal fragrance. If I could get my hands on her, I wouldn't let her go.

"It's okay, keep walking."

As Lu Wei passed by Xiao Duanmu, he took the lead and said, "We'll need you to keep an eye on the Moon Goddess this month."

After a pause, Duanmu Rong's tone softened considerably: "I will."

Then, as if to prove something, she added "Senior Lu" at the end.

As for Nian Duan, Lu Wei had planned to take a considerable amount of time to fully save her, to demonstrate the difficulty of the treatment before formally inviting her to stay at the farmhouse. Therefore, Xiao Duanmu was completely under his control, so a little awkwardness now didn't matter.

I have spent enough time on medicine, and now I am in Dazeshan, where I also have to do labor.

For example, the plan that was arranged last year: Gan Jiang and Mo Xie.

Speaking of these two swords, we also need to mention one person: Feng Hu Zi.

He used Feng Hu Zi to find Gan Jiang and Mo Xie, and then used Feng Hu Zi as a witness to spread the story of Gan Jiang and Mo Xie being forcibly taken away by Tian Meng in a small circle of people in the martial arts world, but he broke his promise to give him the Tun Hai Sword for evaluation.

After returning from Sanghai, Lu Wei was in a hurry to go to Yan to see Tian Guang, so he broke his promise. The two agreed to meet again in Jicheng.

After meeting Tian Guang, the Hall Master received the Shennong Token and learned that Gan Jiang and Mo Xie had been stolen just as he and Zhou Wen had planned. He didn't have time to wait for Master Feng Hu Zi to arrive in Yan, so he simply headed south to Chu and spread the boast of a hundred victories in the martial arts world.

At this point, Lu Wei's connection with Feng Hu Zi was severed. According to rumors in the martial arts world, this sword appraiser once publicly expressed his regret in the Yan Kingdom, saying that he had missed appraising a famous sword that was at least as good as Tai'a.

However, the name of the famous sword and its owner were not mentioned.

Later, he didn't persist and went from Yan to Qin.

In the Qin state, he personally assessed the broken rainbow after the failed assassination attempt on the emperor and the recast rainbow after its reconstruction.

In that case, I owe this sword appraiser a favor.

However, whether he can repay this favor is hard to say. Feng Hu Zi is a well-traveled man, and the last time we met in Sanghai was because of Fu Nian's succession as the head of Xiao Sheng Xian Zhuang.

He learned about the affairs of Gonggong Hall from Lü Qing and asked him to send some of his forces from the headquarters to settle them by Mirror Lake.

Later that evening, the Hall Master talked with Xue Nu about work in the accounting room for a while. After the latter left with a flushed face, Lu Wei straightened his clothes and quietly arrived at Lieshan Hall without stopping.

"The play can begin."

Sitting opposite Zhou Wen, who had Tian Meng's face, Lu Wei drank the tea that Zhou Wen had poured for him in advance.

Since Zhou Wen couldn't hide his return from her, the other hall masters must have found out as well.

We should find some time these days to visit Shennong Hall and Siyue Hall... no, we should invite the Zhu family and Situ Wanli over!

"Wait a little longer. I'll have Wu Chen demonstrate our military strength in the next few days to build momentum for both of us."

Tian Meng nodded and said.

Wu Chen, the current steward of Lieshan Hall, participated in the Luqiu Pavilion's merchant caravan to Chu many years ago under the name "Sang Lin".

In that caravan, the person in charge was still the then "young master" Xu Sheng, and Lu Wei, Zhou Wen, and Sang Lin were the junior leaders.

Together, they faced the trap set by the Net.

I remember Xu Sheng saying that this Wu Chen was an ambitious and wicked person.

Looking back now, apart from Xu Sheng himself, who was personally executed by Master Lu, the other three were not good people.

Xu Sheng is extremely lucky to be the leader of these three people.

Later, Zhou Wen and Wu Chen joined the Luo Wang organization together. The difference between the two was that Zhou Wen infiltrated the Luo Wang organization as instructed by the leader of the chivalrous sect, Tian Guang, while Wu Chen genuinely joined the organization.

The two were assigned to oversee Lieshan Hall, implying a mutual surveillance relationship.

"Wu Chen, he is truly an old friend worth remembering."

Lu Wei raised an eyebrow: "But he's not one of us after all, keeping him around is a potential problem."

“You can kill him, but not now.” Tian Meng shook his head: “When you want to kill me in the future, you can execute him as well. It won’t be difficult for you.”

"I will not show any mercy." The hall master smiled gently: "Do you have any connection with the Heroic Leader?"

"No, you went to Jicheng. No one in the farming family knows more about matters related to the Xia Kui than you do."

"I lost contact with Xia Kui for over a year," Lu Wei paused, then continued, "I didn't attend this year's Autumn Harvest Festival, and Xia Kui didn't return either?"

As the political situation changed, the Autumn Harvest Festival became less serious and formal than before, all of which began when the Kuiwei Hall scandal broke out during that year's festival.

"I have not returned, but I have received a letter saying that everything is fine."

"I truly hope all is well."

...

Having arranged a performance time with Zhou Wen, Master Lu returned to Gonggong Hall and went straight to the backyard.

The Snow Woman has been appeased in the accounting office; tonight, let's keep the Moon Goddess company.

She and her child need more warmth.

Silently pushing open the door to enter the Moon Goddess's room, he found that the Right Protector of the Yin-Yang School was still not asleep, but sitting on the edge of the bed as he had during the day, waiting for him with a calm look in his eyes.

"You come here smelling of other women's intimate scent?"

He smiled and was about to approach the bedside when he was stopped by a thin layer of Yin-Yang magic.

"So you do care about them after all."

The hall master was somewhat surprised, and that layer of Yin-Yang magic, the very gentle barrier, seemed more like a shy invitation.

"I don't care about your women."

"But your child definitely won't like the taste."

Do you have any more?

The moon god is peaceful and innocent.

"What..." Lu Wei was about to ask what else was there when he saw the Right Protector extend her bare, jade-like foot from beneath her long skirt, slowly moving up his leg and rubbing it towards his groin...

"hiss"

After a long while, as evening fell, the lingering scent on the Snow Woman was masked by other aromas...

Chapter 169 Acting by Lieshan

The Dazeshan Lieshan Hall and the Chiyou Hall recently held a joint martial arts competition, which could only be participated in by disciples of the two halls at the level of four-star pearl grass.

The martial arts competition takes the form of a ring duel, and the final winner receives a large reward.

This kind of competition was clearly a show of strength by the Tian brothers, nicknamed "Fierce Tigers." After several years of adjustment, the internal dynamics of the farming family had subtly shifted from a dispute between outsiders surnamed Tian to a more complex situation of four opposing forces.

In the eyes of most of the disciples of the Farmer's Clan, the outcome of this protracted standoff will determine the next leader of the Heroic Sect.
