I Can’t Be a Sword God

As soon as the well-dressed woman appeared on the stage, the audience let out low cries.

She was wearing a long flowing gauze skirt with wide sleeves, the light lotus skirt was like a cloud of light smoke, wrapping her tall and slender body.

Cold white skin, jet black pupils, slightly exposed shoulders and arms are as fair as white, the whole is like a beauty carved from white marble.

It feels indifferent and alienated.

There seemed to be a layer of light frost between the eyebrows and eyes.

Wei will leave.

There are thousands of beauties in Shenluo City, and to become the top beauties in Huadu, they must have characteristics that can be remembered by others. And Wei Jiangli gives people the most distinct feeling, that is, cold.

The eyes of all the men in the audience were focused on her alone, but her pupils were dark and deep, and it was impossible to tell where she was looking. As bright as peaches and plums, as cold as ice.

No, there is still one exception.

Li Chu didn't look at her, but closed his eyes slightly and tilted his head, feeling something.

When General Wei left the field, he felt a sudden yin energy. With a sweep of his mind, Wei Jiangli did not bring this yin energy. Rather, in the depths of this Orchid Pavilion, there seems to be a dark shadow hiding.

The existence just now seemed to be absent-minded for a moment, and the breath leaked out.

Feel it now, but it disappears again.

Li Chu thought quietly, it is unlikely that such a big ghost is hiding in the big brothel of Youlanxuan. And the descendants of the Yin family are proficient in the inheritance of ghost cultivation, maybe it is related to it.

Don't worry, he will always show his flaws again.

When Wei Jiangli appeared on the stage, he leaked his breath, and he didn't know if Wei Jiangli would reappear when he left the stage. Thinking of this, Li Chu hoped that Wei Jiangli would leave the arena quickly.

When the audience is eagerly looking at the beauty, I am afraid that the literati around will never think that there is a traitor among us.

Not only was he preoccupied with finding ghosts, but he also wanted this beauty to go down quickly...

It would be even better if another ghost cultivator can come up...

"Thank you all for coming to support the little girl today, next..."

Standing on the stage, Wei Jiangli was simply thanking the gentlemen in his clear and lingling voice, when he paused suddenly.

When all eyes are on you and only one person is not, that person tends to stand out.

Especially since he himself looks very prominent.

like the sun.

Wei Jiangli's pupils seemed to be in focus for the first time, and fell on the distinctive figure in the crowd.

But she is also one of the top three oirans after all, so naturally she won't lose her mind because of such a trivial matter, she was just a little startled, and immediately turned around and completed her introduction.

She will bring a pipa solo as today's opening performance.

Wei Jiangli's famous skill is flute dancing. Last year, she was commented, "After dancing to a flute, thousands of people in the audience wept bitterly. It is a rare place in the world that is so sad."

But before the Huadu Conference officially begins, any good girl who wants to compete for the position of Oiran will not easily show her best stunts.

After all, people like to watch new ones. When you hear her play the flute for the first time, tears well up in your eyes. When she blows to you for the second time, you will only be slightly moved. By the third time, you may not be moved.

The more you blow, the less sensitive you are.

So at this time, her pipa solo can be regarded as a symbolic opening performance. It won't be bad, but it won't be too amazing either.

Soon a young servant with quick hands and feet moved onto the table and the pipa, and Wei Jiangli sat down gently, half of his body facing the stands below.

This orientation is also very particular. Although the whole face cannot be seen clearly, it shows her flawless profile and complete figure.

Her figure is like a smooth river with comfortable curves.

The eyes of literati and refined scholars suddenly became straight...the eyes are full... Dear pipa lovers, we meet again...

Zheng——

The first pipa strings sounded.

It is like the ancient rhyme of the empty mountain, just like listening to the sky.

Fast forward to the end of the song.

Li Chu doesn't know the rhythm very well, but he thinks she plays very well. Looking around, everyone is already mesmerized.

"Does she play well?" he asked Wang Longqi.

Wang Longqi shook his head slowly: "I didn't hear that."

"Huh?" Li Chu asked in surprise, "When did you become deaf?"

Wang Longqi rolled his eyes, "No way, no one is really listening to the pipa, right?"

"Oh——" He raised his hand to cover his chest again, and said very seriously: "Seeing Miss Jiangli, I suddenly felt that the women I knew before were all vulgar fans... It's simply unbearable."

"I seem to have found true love."

Li Chu: "..."

After that, Miss Jiangli performed a few more musical instruments. It can be seen that although she usually does not perform many times, she definitely puts a lot of thought into it. It is already difficult for ordinary people to learn these many musical instruments, not to mention that she has to at least reach the level of proficiency.

Bed... No, one minute on stage and ten years off stage.

It's a pity that the people in the audience didn't seem to care much about her performance. The few performances will end soon, and this is the most anticipated part of the literati, the selection of guests.

Will leave the girl slowly.

It's a pity that that powerful Yin Qi never leaked again.

At this time, there were seven or eight young girls in long skirts, each holding a gold plate covered with red satin in both hands, walked into the arena, and walked past the tables.

The literati and refined scholars took out the valuable gifts they had already prepared from their bosoms, among which the gold, jewels and jade articles were all the lowest...

Li Chu looked unhappy: "Want money?"

Wang Longqi smiled: "How fresh, do you think this is a charity show?"

In fact, for this "gift delivery" link, the guests themselves are more enthusiastic than the brothel.

Because this is different from the reward that the storyteller wants, the oiran who performed just now has to choose the one she likes the most from the gifts handed over, and have a chat with the guest who gave it.

So these literati and refined scholars carefully prepared before they came, hoping that their gifts would stand out and win the favor of the departing girl.

Gemstones, calligraphy and paintings, ancient objects, magical instruments... One after another outrageous gifts were placed on the table, which made Li Chu feel a little nervous.

Finally, the two young girls came before Li Chu and Wang Longqi.

Although Wang Longqi came in a hurry, he was already used to these scenes and had a lot of small things on him.

He casually plucked a small jade carved fish from his waist. Although it was not comparable to the other presents, at least it looked passable in appearance.

Then, he looked at Li Chu, wanting to come up with something to help Li Chu out.

I saw Li Chu with his hands in his sleeves, digging for a long time, took out two taels of silver, and put it on the tray.

"Pfft." Wang Longqi almost spat out a mouthful of water.

The eyes of the two girls also widened suddenly.

They must have been in Youlanxuan for so many years, and they have never seen such a scene.

Then……

This stupid kung fu...

Li Chu thought for a while, and took back one or two more.

After buying a house, Guanli doesn't have much money left, so save as much as you can. Just listening to a few songs, two taels of silver is too extravagant...

Although Wang Longqi knew his temper, he was still dumbfounded on this occasion.

this……

This is too embarrassing...

And why is your expression so calm? Did you really not find anything wrong? Or, as long as you don't feel embarrassed, it's someone else who is embarrassed?

and……

He is a little worried.

After all, you made such a move here... The people in You Lanxuan will not think you are stingy, they will only think that you are humiliating the girl Jiangli... Maybe you will cause unnecessary trouble.

Wang Longqi came back to his senses, got up and went over, wanting to stop the two girls and exchange a gift for Li Chu.

He heard the two girls who turned and left began to talk in a low voice.

"It's been more than a year, and this is the first time I've seen someone who only gave you one or two taels of silver."

"I haven't seen him for two years. This young man...has such a personality!"

"Yeah, he is different from others inside and out."

"It's completely unconventional, and it looks very attentive."

"If I were going to leave the girl, I would definitely choose him."

"Me too."

"..."

Wang Longqi stopped walking without direction, scratched his head, and came back again.

This world is confusing.

...

At this time, Wei Jiangli was already sitting in the private room at the back, he had taken off his performance attire, only wearing a white silk uniform, and was lazily lying on a soft chair to rest.

like a cat.

The girls came in one after another and placed the trays on the table in front of her.

Wei Jiangli didn't even look at it.

There are never any surprises in the gifts these men give.

Besides, the guests who should be selected today have been set early in the morning and cannot be changed.

But……

That glimpsed figure appeared in her mind.

My heart suddenly tightened, and there was a trace of hesitation.

Just as she was thinking, she glanced casually at the table and saw a tael of silver placed in the middle of a tray.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise, and there was a little coldness in her eyes.

Just as Wang Longqi expected, in this kind of place, when she saw this tael of silver, she would not think that the other party was stingy... only that the other party was humiliating her or deliberately provoking her.

Your performance is only worth a couple of dollars...or so?

So she asked, "Who sent this?"

"This one." The girl who came in with the tray turned red suddenly, "It's a handsome young man. I've never seen such a handsome man in my life."

"It's him..."

The girls around immediately began to chirp, needless to say, they immediately agreed in their hearts.

Anyway, this description cannot be someone else.

"If it's him..." Wei Jiangli bit his lower lip lightly with his teeth, a tinge of blood appeared, "Then he must be trying to get my attention."

"I really care."

"This person has never appeared before, and I don't know if he will come again in the future... Forget it, I will grant your wish."

Miss Jiangli gritted her teeth, "Just choose him, tidy up and invite this young master over."

"Hehe." The girls around teased enviously, "Who would have thought that one tael of silver could buy our oiran."

Another person said: "Although this is only a tael of silver, that young master's face is priceless."

The chattering girl, after leaving the private room, turned into a well-behaved and dignified look again, and walked towards the banquet.

When the girl handed the silk handkerchief of Miss Jiangli to Li Chu, Wang Longqi broke down first.

He doesn't understand what's going on in this world...

It's obviously a provocative act, so it's fine if it doesn't attract expulsion, but can you still get the silk handkerchief?

This world... so fucking hard to understand.

I'm the man who really loves her!

to be honest.

Even Li Chu himself was slightly surprised.

but……

This kind of inexplicable being chosen by a good thing...

I've already gotten used to it...

Get in touch with Miss Jiangli more and learn something, maybe it will be helpful to find the Yin family.

Li Chu walked into the private room lightly, and saw an eight-sided screen in the room, behind the shadow of mountains and rivers, was the slim figure of the girl Jiang Li.

He sat down gently behind the screen without making a sound.

After a pause, I heard Jiang Li's first sentence.

"Mr. Li, someone paid 30,000 taels tonight, let me choose another guest."

"But I still chose you."

Jiang Li's first words were in a light tone, just like her pipa and her people, and seemed to mention trivial things.

But Li Chu was greatly moved when he heard the words.

"This." He murmured.

Thirty thousand taels...

this……

This is really a prodigal bitch...
