I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

"This soup..."

Pei Xiang looked at the white lotus root and red cherry in the blue and white bowl of Yuxi lotus leaf, and asked with a chuckle:

"The color is bright and the aroma is tangy. I can't bear to drink it after looking at it. Wuhua, what is the name of this soup?"

Wuhua's eyebrows stretched out, her voice was gentle: "It's called 'Tiancheng'."

"Is it 'a perfect match'? What's the explanation?"

"Miss Pei may wish to guess."

Pei Xiang gently stirred the hot soup in the bowl with a spoon, love flashed in her eyes, she looked at Wu Hua with a smile, and said briskly:

"In my opinion, two people who can become a "sweet couple" must be extremely well-matched. Well, the lotus flower is a gentleman among flowers. Kongyu lotus root represents a man. And this red cherry is so delicate and charming that I feel pity for it. It is like a beautiful woman's small cherry mouth, which naturally represents a woman. And "lotus root" and "even" have the same pronunciation. A gentleman and a beauty are a perfect match, so , the name of the soup is 'Tiancheng', am I right?"

Wuhua nodded with a smile, and stretched out her hand for Pei Xiang to taste:

"Miss Pei's guess is right. The name of the soup is indeed derived from this. Besides, this soup is made from the water from the Sanyuan Spring in the mountains. It has a unique sweet and sweet aftertaste. You can taste it carefully."

Under Wuhua's gaze, Pei Xiang scooped up a red cherry with a spoon and put it on his lips to taste it.However, when the food was about to be eaten, she stopped again, and then simply put the soup bowl back on the table.

"What's the matter, but is there something wrong?" Wu Hua asked in surprise.

Pei Xiang sighed and said with regret: "I really want to taste the famous Vegetarian Vegetarian Food of Miao Seng Wuhua, but this bowl of soup is not something I can drink."

The smile on Wuhua's face was slightly restrained, and she looked at Pei Xiang with concern: "What worries does Miss Pei have? Does it mean you don't like lotus root or cherries?"

Pei Xiang shook his head, stared into Wuhua's eyes and said slowly:

"My concerns all come from the name of this soup. Wuhua, I can't drink the 'Tiancheng' you made yourself, because there is another girl who deserves such a special gift, not me."

This time, there was no smile on Wu Hua's face at all, a hurt look appeared in her pair of clear phoenix eyes, and then quickly disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

Pei Xiang ignored Wuhua's emotional changes, she said carefully:

"Wuhua, I have a good sister who grew up in Shenshui Palace. She wrote to me recently that she fell in love with a man, and that man responded to her. For this reason, she made a mistake. A big mistake, once that mistake is revealed, the jellyfish Yin Ji, the lord of Shenshui Palace, will definitely not forgive her.

"She bid farewell to me in the letter, saying that she was ready to die for that relationship. Wuhua, I think you should give this bowl of 'Jiao Mian Tian Cheng' to my friend to let her know that she is There is no mistake in paying affection, instead of giving it to someone who has nothing to do with me."

These words were like a thunderbolt, directly splitting a hole in Wu Hua's perfect mask, forcing him to reveal his true emotions.

For a moment, Wu Hua's whole body was gloomy and terrifying.

"Miss Pei, I want to punish you..."

"Wu Hua, Yin Ji, the jellyfish, hates men extremely, but she is also a devout layman. Therefore, the only man who has entered the Shenshui Palace in recent years is you. Wu Hua, there are some things that you and I know very well, why bother?" Forced sophistry will only increase the laughingstock."

Facing Pei Xiang's determined eyes and sarcasm, Wu Hua took a deep breath.He closed his eyes, and suddenly lost the interest in putting on a show in front of Pei Xiang.Just like what Pei Xiang said, since some things have been exposed, if he blindly denies his struggle, it will only make people look down upon him.

So, he stopped pretending his expression, but pursed his lips and stared coldly at Pei Xiang who was sitting opposite, with questioning, pity, unwillingness and a trace of obsession in his eyes.

"It turns out that Miss Pei knew about my being in Shenshui Palace, but she was still willing to act with me for so long. I really wronged you."

Pei Xiang replied lightly, seeming to have a plan in his chest, looking at the overall situation.

According to the original book, when Wuhua went to Shenshui Palace to explain Buddhism, she seduced a female disciple named Situ Jing, and successfully stole Tianyi Shenshui with Situ Jing's help.

After that, Wuhua left Shenshui Palace to stir up trouble in the Jianghu, leaving the infatuated Situ Jing behind and ignored her.But Situ Jing was pregnant with Wuhua's child, and because she deeply felt that Yin Ji, the jellyfish, the palace lord, would not let her go, she committed suicide.

However, for Pei Xiang at this time, the plot of the original work is not 100% reliable.Whether it's because of the small wings of her butterfly, or because this place itself is an integrated martial arts world, many details in this world have quietly changed.

For example, no matter in Chu Liuxiang's world or Shen Lang's world, there is a gang of beggars.

The two beggar gangs are also the largest gangs in the world, but the location of their headquarters and the name of the gang leader are completely different, and an irreconcilable contradiction has arisen.As a result, the consciousness of this world spontaneously made adjustments to make everything reasonable.

Today, the gang of beggars in this world of martial arts is the gang of beggars in Chu Liuxiang's world.The Beggars' Gang, which originally belonged to Shen Lang and Wang Lianhua's world, has been renamed the Wuyi Gang at this time. It is a gang very similar to the Beggars' Gang, and it is also a big force entrenched in one side.

Therefore, Pei Xiang couldn't guarantee whether Wuhua really seduced a naive little girl in Shenshui Palace, and that little girl happened to be called Situ Jing.But she knows the old saying - the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change.

No matter how many small details are adjusted in this martial arts world, some people's personalities will never change.Therefore, it is easy for them to make the same choice in similar situations.

At this time, when Pei Xiang heard that Wu Hua did not refute his tentative remarks just now, and directly admitted that he had deceived the disciples of Shenshui Palace, he said in his heart that it was true.

She decided to keep trying.

"She did that for you, and she was going to die rather than reveal your identity. If I hadn't guessed the answer myself, I might have doubted Dao Shuai, who is extremely light-hearted and always flirtatious. Wuhua, are you serious? Do you have the heart to stand by and let a girl who loves you die innocently?"

Wuhua has calmed down the initial shock and regained his former elegance and composure. He smiled and said:

"Jing'er is a very simple and kind girl. Her feelings are very strong. She feels that it is a sacred and great thing to sacrifice for her lover. Therefore, even if she dies, she is still happy.

"In Jing'er's heart, what I bring to her is pure happiness, the joy of men and women that she has never experienced before, and the most colorful and gorgeous colors in the boring and simple life in Shenshui Palace. Miss Pei, you can't use your Jing'er's choice is measured by her life aspirations."

This sophistry made Pei Xiang show a complex expression of surprise and weirdness, and she began to look at Wuhua with a new look.

After a while, Pei Xiang sneered, and at the same time, without warning, she swiftly slapped Wu Hua's important acupuncture points, as if planning to catch people by surprise.

However, how could Wuhua, who has always been careful, not be on guard.The moment Pei Xiang shot, he left the original seat without a sound, his clothes fluttering, his toes lightly tapped, and in the blink of an eye, Wuhua stood on the side of the boat.

"Miss Pei, why did you suddenly attack?"

Pei Xiang said coldly: "Of course I want to take you to Shenshui Palace, and make you apologize to Sister Jing."

"Why does Miss Pei meddle in this matter?"

Wuhua sighed softly, looking at Pei Xiang with a little more indulgence:

"Situ Jing has completed her mission, she should die generously in happiness, this is her luck."

"Lucky? Heh, what a thick-skinned monk!"

Wuhua shook her head with emotion, and defended herself very sincerely:

"She is indeed lucky. Miss Pei, there are still many women in this world who are suffering, and can only spend their whole lives with stupid men. It's extremely lucky to be together. Miss Pei, there are not many women worthy of my tenderness and patience, are you really going to let down my affection?"

Pei Xiang ignored Wu Hua's gentle gaze, and stopped talking to him to argue. She chose to arrest him directly.

Wuhua has already learned about Pei Xiang's martial arts practice from Shi Guanyin, so why didn't she take precautions?

Therefore, as soon as he saw that Pei Xiang was serious, he directly gave up facing the enemy and counterattacking. Instead, he sprinkled poison to hinder Pei Xiang's actions, and then threw seven or eight fire mines on the water without hesitation. The impact stirred up water curtains one after another to disturb Pei Xiang's sight...

Wuhua planned to take advantage of the chaos and escape, but after all, he underestimated Pei Xiang who was also prepared.A year ago, he could easily kill Pei Xiang who hadn't recovered his strength yet. A year later, even Shi Guanyin suffered a loss in Pei Xiang's hands, let alone Wuhua.

So, when the poisonous gas dissipated and the water curtain fell, Pei Xiang's sword firmly touched Wuhua's throat.

"I'm defeated..." Wuhua was stunned for a moment, and then showed a faint wry smile, which was quite self-deprecating.

Pei Xiang raised his eyebrows: "You go to Shenshui Palace to accept the crime."

"Forgive me, Miss Pei." Wuhua's tone was firm, his expression was cold and his brows were calm, as if there was no deadly sword on his neck.

"It's not up to you to choose, Wu Hua."

When his life was hanging by a thread, Wu Hua's demeanor was even more chic and lofty. He lowered his eyes to stare at Pei Xiang who was holding a sword, and slowly closed his eyes.

"Are you really going to send me back to Shenshui Palace? Miss Pei, some people would rather die clean than suffer humiliation while lingering..."

As she spoke, she saw that Wu Hua's originally white and jade-like complexion had dimmed, and within three to five breaths, Wu Hua's face was covered with gray and gray, and her body also became stiff.

Pei Xiang's eyes turned slightly, and he sent the sword forward.

However, instead of dodging, Wuhua clung to the sharp blade and shook her body.If it wasn't for Pei Xiang's quick reaction, there would be a hideous wound on his fair and slender neck.

"No flowers?"

Pei Xiang withdrew his sword, and grabbed the shaking opponent.

Just this touch made people feel extremely shocked.It turned out that Wu Hua, who was Miaojue Tianxia, ​​had lost all signs of life, his chest was no longer breathing up and down, and his skin was no longer soft and warm.

"Wuhua?" Pei Xiang whispered while carrying the "corpse", but got no response.

"Wuhua, are you dead?"

Pei Xiang frowned, she checked Wuhua's pulse carefully, and found that it was no different from a dead person.

"Hey, why did you kill yourself like this? Well, you are really so proud that you don't even want to bear a little humiliation?" Pei Xiang whispered to Wuhua's body, expressing regret.

However, although she said it was a pity, the movements of Pei Xiang's hands showed that she was on guard.Without much hesitation, Pei Xiang acupointed Wuhua's "corpse", to prevent someone from suddenly "frauding the corpse".

Immediately afterwards, Pei Xiang had no intention of letting Wuhua's body go.After she let him lie down on the deck, she went to the table and brought the bowl of cherry and lotus root soup.

"Wuhua, since you're dead, sister Jing probably won't live long. In this way, you two can go to the underworld to be a pair of mandarin ducks. Do you think it's okay? Come, take this bowl of 'Natural Beauty' Drink the soup, after you see sister Jing's soul, she will be able to appreciate my friend's heartfelt blessings to you two."

While talking, Pei Xiang snapped open Wu Hua's mouth, ready to pour the cold soup down Wu Hua's throat.

Just then, a mutation arose.

Wu Hua, who was originally stiff and motionless, suddenly opened her eyes, and the eyes were so bright that they were as sharp and menacing as thunder and lightning swords.At the same time, he flipped his hands, and with superimposed power, he slapped Pei Xiang, who was pouring water with his head down, and hit her chest directly, without mercy.

Seeing that he was about to be in danger, Pei Xiang suddenly moved his wrist slightly, just in time to send the blue and white bowl containing the "Naturally Made" soup to Wuhua's palm.

In the blink of an eye, the porcelain shattered and the soup splashed everywhere.

Pei Xiang pointed at him together as a saber, condensed his vigor into a cone, and slammed Wu Hua's palm force away, turning the danger into safety in an instant.

The offensive and defensive momentum changed in an instant, Pei Xiangsu raised his hand, and his light white jade fingers turned into Raksha's yin and yang claws. There were many phantoms, and it was difficult to distinguish between reality and reality, and they were close to Wuhua's eyes.

Wuhua's heart was awe-inspiring, relying on the intuition trained by Shi Guanyin, she rolled and moved in embarrassment, panting rapidly, Wuhua didn't dare to love to fight any more, and decided to evacuate with all her strength immediately.

With this thought, his entire aura changed, the fierce aura around his body became weaker and weaker, and his body gradually elongated, as if turning into a long soft rope, twisting on the spot into a shape that ordinary people could not achieve.

Then, Wuhua found a rare gap in Pei Xiangmi's impenetrable attack, and immediately slid out of Pei Xiang's flowing moves, and followed the dodging force, preparing to escape into the water in one go.

Pei Xiang snorted coldly.

She never believed that a person like Wu Hua would commit suicide so easily. The reason why she pretended to be tricked just now was to test whether there was any poison in the bowl of "Tiancheng" soup.Seeing that Wu Hua would rather expose the truth about her fake death than drink that bowl of soup, why didn't she understand?

"Wuhua, it's time for you to pay off the debt."

In the blink of an eye, Pei Xiang's long sword clanged out of its sheath, and the clanging sound shook the enemy's soul. The bloodthirsty sword tip pierced Wuhua's ankle accurately and quickly, intercepting the person who was about to escape.

The severe pain from the ankle made Wuhua's pupils constrict, but compared to the physical pain, what made Wuhua tremble more was the speed at which Pei Xiang drew his sword.

At that moment, the Jinghong sword light imprinted in Wuhua's eyes and heart, which made him realize very clearly that not only was there no power to fight between him and her, but even running away was delusional.

"Ha, Pei Xiang, why didn't you drink that bowl of soup!"

Successive setbacks and severe pain made Wu Hua's eyes turn red, her usually beautiful features like a bright moon were slightly distorted, and the veins on her forehead burst into cold sweat, making her look very embarrassed.

"After knowing that you have been to Shenshui Palace, how dare I be careless?"

After stopping Wuhua, Pei Xiang only said one sentence, and said nothing more.

She directly touched Wuhua's big acupoints all over her body, and then patted her bare hands, firmly resting on Wuhua's shoulder.

On the small boat, Pei Xiang activated the Beiming Divine Art without hesitation, concentrating on absorbing the internal force in the Wuhua meridian.
