Chapter 184 Chapter 183
"Who?!" Shen Mu stood up and went to open the door, only to find outside the door was a drunk man in tattered Taoist robes, with a sword on his back and a wine gourd in his hand.

It's just that Shen Mu took a look at the drunk man, and felt that the drunk Taoist priest was unusual, because the faint spiritual power emanating from the drunk Taoist priest made him feel an inexplicable threat.

"Young...Young man, can I give the poor Taoist a pot of wine?" The drunk Taoist smelled of alcohol, as if he had just crawled out of a wine vat.

Using probing techniques, Shen Mu discovered that the drunken Taoist priest's cultivation was in the middle stage of foundation establishment, so he knew that the drunken Taoist priest was most likely the wine sword fairy Situ Zhong who was addicted to alcohol, but he didn't know this guy How did you get here? He frowned and said, "Senior, you are the Sword Immortal of Wine, Situ Zhong?"

When the drunk Taoist heard Shen Mu calling out his name, his drunkenness disappeared immediately, and he stared at Shen Mu and said, "You... how do you know the poor Taoist? I don't seem to have seen... hiccup... seen you ah."

Shen Mu clasped his fists to Situ Zhong and said, "Senior, I am brother Xiaoyao's friend, he is resting in the next room, are you looking for him?"

"Oh, are you that kid's friend?" The drunken Taoist nodded, then quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I'm not looking for him, I'm just here to ask for a bowl of wine..."

Shen Mu wanted to make friends with the Wine Sword Immortal, and said, "It's so simple, the junior is drinking, so why not have a few jars with the senior?"

"Haha, that's great." Situ Zhong laughed, walked in, came to the wine table, glanced at Liu Jinyuan who was already drunk, and then looked at the several jars of wine on the wine table, he was so excited When the flow was down, he was not polite, picked up a jar of wine, and poured it into his mouth "gudong gudong...", it was the same as drinking clear water.

Looking at Situ Zhong's drinking method, Shen Mu couldn't help but think to himself: "This Situ Zhong's drinking capacity is really not a boast, it's even worse than Brother Qiao, it's just that the way he drinks is too ugly..."

Quickly said: "Senior, today's food and drink are enough, there is no need to be like this..."

"Okay, okay..." Situ Zhong sat on the stool, held the wine jar in one hand, grabbed a chicken leg with the other, and started to chew, but his eyes rolled and he said, "That's not right, do you have something to ask me, brat? But let me tell you, that kid Li Xiaoyao has already obtained my true biography, and I won't teach others." Even though he said so, he still drank heavily and ate meat.

Although Shen Mu's cultivation is not as high as Situ Zhong's, his swordsmanship is much better than Situ Zhong's. It's all the essence of swordsmanship that he has learned. He doesn't like Situ Zhong's skills at all, so he just waved his hands and said: "Senior is overwhelmed. This junior has heard of senior's name for a long time. Today I see you. I just want to have a few drinks with senior. Get drunk."

As soon as Situ Zhong heard this, he said happily: "Okay, then you and I will get drunk today! Do... hahaha..."

Shen Mu and Situ Zhong drank until late at night before giving up. Shen Mu was also so drunk that he fell asleep lying on the wine table.

When he woke up the next day, when he looked up, Situ Zhong had disappeared, and Liu Jinyuan had long since disappeared.

Walking out of the house, seeing Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Linger downstairs drinking morning tea, Shen Mu also washed up, went downstairs, drank a bowl of morning tea with them, and ate some famous local snacks.

The three of them walked out of the inn after eating and drinking enough, and went for a walk in the market of Suzhou City together to prepare some necessities for the road.

"Come, come, come! If you want to see a wonderful performance, come quickly. Our brothers rely on real kung fu and hard skills. Please support us a lot~ah~!"

On the road, I met a juggler who was swallowing a sword, and the onlookers were terrified.

"Oh... so scary."

"Swallow the sword, won't your stomach hurt?"

"Did he really swallow the sword in his stomach?"

"It seems to be true. It's so amazing! Hey, have you heard that our Suzhou city has been very lively recently? Last month, the Lin family held a hydrangea ball selection. This time, they held a competition to recruit relatives. The Lin family really has Money is free! Speaking of the hydrangea ball selection last time, it was interesting. Miss Lin actually filled the hydrangea ball with gunpowder and burned off the eyebrows of several rich men. It's really... ah."

"Speaking of last month, the village on the west side was plagued by snake monsters. They not only robbed a lot of property, but also kidnapped old man Zhang's granddaughter. His granddaughter is only 16 years old. Poor old man Zhang is seventy years old. Grandpa and grandson The two have always depended on each other. Now old man Zhang is very sad. The neighbors all ran to Lin’s house and begged Master Lin Bao to come forward. Seven or eight lives. I see... Lin Jiabao's reputation in the martial arts world is nothing more than nothing."

"Do you know why the old man of the Lin family is suddenly eager to find a son-in-law? Isn't it because he feels that he is old and dying, but his wife only left one daughter for the Lin family, so he wants to quickly find a young man with strong martial arts to inherit the Lin family castle. In order to avoid the decline of the Lin family's reputation in the martial arts world."

"However, Lord Limburg's daughter is famous for her toughness. She is very good at martial arts at a young age, and she doesn't look like a girl at all."

The three of Shen Mu watched it for a while, and then came to the west of the city again. At this time, a ring was being set up here, and a martial arts competition was being held to recruit relatives. Everyone came here admiringly.

"Oh, don't squeeze!"

"Hey, don't jump in line!"

"Are you also here to sign up for the martial arts competition to recruit relatives? I heard that the qualifications for participation are quite strict, but ~ if you really become the uncle of the Lin family, it will be a lifetime of glory and wealth!"

"Wow~ There are so many people queuing up, when will it be my turn? I've been standing here for three hours... Alas... Hey~ Where are you from, go to the back of the queue!"

At this time, a person from the rivers and lakes next to him saw Shen Mu and the three and asked, "I am Song Yuanqi, the seventh oldest of the thirteen eagles in Lingnan. Your Excellency is probably here to participate in the Lin family's martial arts competition to recruit relatives, right?"

Before Shen Mu could speak, Li Xiaoyao glanced at Zhao Linger's eyes, then quickly waved his hands and said, "No! No! We are just passing by here."

Shen Mu shook his head secretly, he didn't expect that Li Xiaoyao was still a guy who feared guilt.

At this time, a fight started in the arena. It was Lin Yueru who I met yesterday. She was still holding a whip, but she had changed into a red outfit. She looked very dynamic. During the martial arts competition, the people in the audience also started discussing excitedly——

"Miss is amazing! This man's kung fu is amazing!"

"The swordsmanship taught by our castle master is really powerful. These young people who are full of enthusiasm are really pitiful. They are no match for our young lady. Come on, young lady! Ah... No, every time the young lady wins, when will there be a result in this martial arts competition? come out?"

"Hey, brother Shen! Why are you here? Could it be that you are here to invite relatives!"

At this time, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came to Shen Mu's ears. Shen Mu turned his head and saw that it was Liu Jinyuan, the scholar who had been drinking yesterday, and said, "I just saw that this place is very lively, so I came here to have a look. Brother Liu, Why don't you go up and try?"

Liu Jinyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Li~don't make fun of me... If I had learned such a little bit of martial arts, I would have asked my cousin Yueru for marriage."

Li Xiaoyao on the side joked: "How do you say that? Brother Liu is gentle, polite and good-looking. You are such a Yueru cousin. If you don't like you, then you really don't have much value."

With a sound of "Boom!", the man in the rivers and lakes with a big knife was kicked off the ring by Lin Yueru in just a few words.

Lin Yueru looked at the people in the world who were beaten by her and lay on the ground, unable to get up for a long time, and snorted coldly with disdain: "Hmph! It's useless, hey! Who else needs to be beaten up?!"

Seeing that no one was on the stage, he bent down and said to a middle-aged man in brocade clothes under the ring: "Father! None of these guys are decent, it's not fun at all, let's go back and forget it."

It turned out that the middle-aged man was Lin Tiannan. Lin Tiannan blamed Lin Yueru, "Ru'er! Your attack is too heavy, right? You broke the hand or blinded the challenger. Who would dare to come up?"

Lin Yueru pouted and said, "Blame me again? I'm a girl, but these stinky boys are so useless!"

Lin Tiannan sighed helplessly and shook his head, "Father tried so hard to find opportunities for you to choose a husband over and over again? You never took it seriously once."

Lin Yueru said coquettishly: "I don't have one, see for yourself! All the boys in the audience are shy, how can they be the son-in-law of the Lin family?"

As she said that, her eyes fell on Shen Mu, "Ah, father, this is the person who bullied him yesterday. If you ask him to come up, I will beat him up."

Lin Tiannan knew that his daughter was unruly and self-willed, and she was the only one who bullied others, so no one else could bully her, so he just smiled wryly and shook his head, "Ru'er, don't play with your temper!"

Lin Yueru pouted her small mouth and said coquettishly, "I don't care, if you ask him to come up, I will definitely show my anger!"

Immediately, the lively scene suddenly quieted down, all eyes were on Shen Mu, Shen Mu rolled his eyes, "Who made you so unruly and willful, I'm just helping your father discipline you."

Lin Yueru glared at Shen Mu angrily, and said, "It's because you still recognize me~ Come up if you have the ability."

"Come up as soon as you come up, I'm still afraid of you." Shen Mu said, just lifted it lightly, and landed firmly on the ring with two feet.

Shen Mu just laughed and said, "Haha! Does your defeated general still want to ask for trouble?"

Lin Yueru raised her brows, and said backlash: "If you win, the festivities between us will be cancelled. If you lose, you will have to work as a long-term worker in my family for a year. To pay for the money you let go For Hua and Changgui! What's the matter, are you afraid?"

Shen Mu said indifferently: "You said what you said! As long as I beat you, what happened yesterday will be erased?"

"That's right! But you can't use the demon technique." Lin Yueru felt that Shen Mu was just lucky yesterday, but the "monster technique" that Shen Mu could fix her still made her feel a little jealous, but she felt that it was just that she didn't use the demon technique. , it is definitely not her opponent.

Lin Tiannan hurriedly stopped him: "Ru'er! Don't play tricks!"

Lin Yueru pursed her lips and said, "Father, don't worry about it! If I don't get back this face in front of everyone today, I won't make people look down on our Suzhou Lin Family Fort."

"Fine, fine...you can do whatever you like." Lin Tiannan also had no choice but to do anything to his daughter.

Seeing that her father agreed, Lin Yueru was overjoyed, she flicked the whip at Shen Mu and said, "Hey, kid, let's make a move!"

However, Shen Mu grabbed the whip that was thrown at him, and pulled Lin Yueru into his arms with a light pull, making Lin Yueru unable to move. Lin Yueru's pretty face blushed, and she was stunned.

All the people present were stunned. In the blink of an eye, this young man subdued the majestic young lady of the Lin Family Fort. It's just that this behavior was really indecent, but it's inevitable that men and women will compete in martial arts.

In fact, Shen Mu also followed the trend, and when he saw that the eyes of everyone in the audience were straight, he quickly let go of Lin Yueru.

Lin Yueru, who was thinking of a tigress just now, turned out to be a well-behaved little white rabbit. After pondering for a while, she gritted her silver teeth and spat out four words with difficulty: "I surrender... "

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host, the setup was successful and you got 1000 points."

"Acceptance~" Shen Mu cupped his fists neither humble nor overbearing, and didn't feel that winning a woman was something worth mentioning.

But at this time, there was a burst of applause from the arena, and Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er in the audience couldn't help applauding.

Shen Mu was about to step down, but was stopped by Lin Tiannan.

Lin Tiannan pulled Shen Mu and Lin Yueru together, clasped his fists to everyone in the audience and said with a smile: "Hehehe... that's great! Great! Folks~ Today's little girl's contest to recruit relatives finally came to fruition, thank you folks for participating in this grand event .Tomorrow, I, a certain person from Lin, will hold a banquet in Linjiabao for three days, and all the folks and elders must appreciate it!"

In fact, Lin Yueru's heart was already secretly moved at the moment she was hugged by Shen Mu. At this time, when she heard Lin Tiannan's words, she felt like eating honey in her heart, but because of her daughter's face, she said hypocritically: "Father! Do not follow..."

Lin Tiannan joked nonchalantly: "Hahaha! Rare~ rare~ Unexpectedly, Ru'er would be ashamed."

"This..." Shen Mu just wanted to teach this unruly girl a lesson, and didn't want to marry her, so he couldn't help but said, "According to the plot, shouldn't this difficult task be left to Li Xiaoyao? ,At once……"

Lin Tiannan patted Shen Mu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hehehe...Young man, what are you still doing there? Follow Ru'er! Since you beat Ru'er in the martial arts competition, you are now the son-in-law of my Lin family gone."

Shen Mu quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, I'm just passing by, and there are two friends waiting under the stage."

However, Lin Tiannan grabbed Shen Mu and said, "It's okay, the old man will treat you kindly as a friend of the young hero. The young hero has such exquisite skills at a young age, and his appearance is also outstanding. It is really a little girl to have a young hero as a son-in-law." Blessing~ hehehe! To be honest, my Lin family is a single heir for three generations, and I only have one daughter like Ru'er, so I hope you can marry into our Lin family so that you can inherit my Lin family's property."

"... Wait a minute, Uncle! How can Yueru marry him?" At this moment, a person came up from the audience, crying with snot and tears.

Lin Tiannan flicked his robe sleeves angrily and said, "Why not?"

Liu Jinyuan cried even harder, and resentfully said: "You know that I don't know martial arts, but you use martial arts to decide Yueru's marriage."

Lin Tiannan said with embarrassment: "Since it is a martial arts contest to recruit relatives, the winner of the arena has already been divided..."

Liu Jinyuan stepped forward and grabbed Lin Tiannan's sleeve and said: "No! This doesn't count, how can Yueru's lifelong affairs be so hasty!"

Shen Mu hurriedly said: "Yes! It can't be counted..."

But Lin Tiannan shook off Liu Jinyuan, who was pulling his sleeve, and shouted, "Shut up! How can you object to the fact that Yueru is my daughter?"

Liu Jinyuan actually knelt down and begged: "I... Please give me Yue Ruxu! Tomorrow, I will ask my father to send someone to propose marriage."

Lin Tiannan looked at Liu Jinyuan who was kneeling in front of him, and felt even more disdainful in his heart, and said with disdain: "Yueru doesn't like you at all. What's more, you are a scholar, how can you inherit my position as the leader of the Southern Martial Forest?"

"I...I...I understand...Brother Shen~ I bless you and Yueru...Shibo, please say goodbye to Yueru for me...I have decided to go back to the capital." Liu Jinyuan stood up as he said, Wiping away tears, he left the arena.

Shen Mu cupped his fists at Lin Tiannan and said, "I will go to southern Xinjiang with my two friends..."

However, Lin Tiannan firmly held Shen Mu and said, "You want to leave?! Do you want to ruin the marriage? What's wrong with being married to my Lin family? Who knows that the Lin family in Suzhou is a well-known family in the south of the Yangtze River. Hao Jia, although my daughter is not an all-powerful beauty, she is also a beautiful lady. No matter how many famous men want to marry her, you have no reason to dislike her!"

Shen Mu thought to himself, anyway, this old boy can't trap him, and it's okay to keep him here for a day or two, so he pretended to agree.

"Ding dong, host, capture the beauty's heart and get 3000 happiness points."

Lin Tiannan arranged for Shen Mu to live alone, and then arranged rooms for Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er. Shen Mu knew that Zhao Ling'er was pregnant with Li Xiaoyao's flesh and blood at this time, because Zhao Ling'er was a descendant of Nuwa, and the pregnancy of Nuwa's descendants would arouse Nuwa. The motherhood of later generations will reveal the snake's tail.

However, Shen Mu wanted to change, so he said to the system: "If Zhao Linger is not allowed to show his original shape, how much happiness is needed?"

"Ding Dong, host, since Zhao Ling'er is a descendant of Nuwa, we can only temporarily keep Zhao Ling'er from showing her original shape for a month, and need 5000 happiness points, do you want to pay?"

"One month? ... Well, I paid for it."

"Ding Dong, host, you have paid successfully."

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host, because the host has completed a hidden task, which changed the plot and gained 6000 happiness points."

Knowing that the plot had changed, Shen Mu walked out of the house and went for a walk in the backyard, only to meet Lin Yueru.

Lin Yueru rarely changed into a long dress, she looked like a woman who pleases herself, and when she saw Shen Mu, she walked over.

Shen Mu knew that he needed to explain the matter clearly to Lin Yueru, so he said: "...Actually, I challenged you to a martial arts competition with you today, just to resolve the misunderstanding, and didn't think about recruiting relatives."

But Lin Yueru smiled disapprovingly: "Hey~ Who told you to beat me? Now everyone in Suzhou City knows that you are the new son-in-law of the Lin family. Don't tell me you want to renege on your debt?"

Shen Mu rolled his eyes, looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, and said in a deep voice, "But~ we've only known each other for two days."

Lin Yueru said angrily: "After talking for a long time, it turns out that you hate me!"

Shen Mu waved his hand and said, "No... but... I always feel that this is too casual."

Lin Yueru rolled her eyes at Shen Mu and said, "I'm not a casual woman! I know what I'm doing very clearly. If you don't want to join our Lin family, I'm willing to leave here with you, and go anywhere. "

Shen Mu was stunned for a moment, isn't this just elopement, but Shen Mu has never eloped with a girl, which made Shen Mu suddenly at a loss as to how to reply...

 Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a reward
