Film and TV: Traveling through countless worlds at the same time

Xiao Se beside him shook his head speechlessly, thinking unconsciously.

"When will this idiot be smarter?"

At this time, Sikong Changfeng walked over and said, "Lu Xiao, Tang Lian has a mission. I plan to take Qian Luo back to Xueyue City first. Do you want to go back with me, or do you plan to continue your training in the martial arts world for a while?"

Lu Xiao replied, "Third Master, you guys should go back first. I've finally made it out here, and I haven't had enough fun yet. They're both going to Snow Moon City too, so I'll just go with them."

They are Lei Wujie and Xiao Se.

At this time, after Tang Lian's introduction, Sikong Changfeng already knew the origins and purpose of the two.

Sikong Changfeng nodded and said, "Alright then. With your current level of cultivation, I don't need to worry too much. Let's go first."

Then everyone started to say goodbye one by one.

In the end, only Lu Xiao and the other two were left on the field.

Seeing this, Lu Xiao spoke.

"Alright, we have only one goal now. Before returning to Xueyue City, we must raise Lei Wujie's cultivation to the Free Land Realm. Xiao Se, help me."

Lei Wujie was full of fighting spirit at this moment.

But Xiao Se is still his catchphrase.

"I don't know martial arts, how can I help you?"

Lu Xiao said, "Do you think I believe you? Just because you can't use martial arts doesn't mean you don't know martial arts. It shouldn't be a big deal for you to teach Lei Wujie."

Looking at the look in Lu Xiao's eyes, Xiao Se once again felt like he was being seen through.

Chapter 84 The Case of the Lost Handkerchief

Do you know the world?

Today, the Sheng Mansion is very lively.

Because something big happened.

The cause was that the young master Qi Heng of the Duke of Qi accidentally lost his handkerchief in the backyard of the Sheng Mansion.

In this era, handkerchiefs are a must-have for both men and women.

If this thing is picked up by an outsider, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen.

Therefore, Young Master Qi Heng immediately found Sheng Quan and told him about the incident.

For this reason, the entire Sheng Mansion immediately launched a massive search.

Finally, Qi Heng's handkerchief was found on a young maid.

Although the maid was severely beaten with a stick, she still said that she had no idea where the handkerchief came from.

In the backyard of the Sheng Mansion, the sixth daughter of the Sheng family and her close friend Yu Yanran were taking a walk.

Yu Yanran was puzzled: "Isn't it just a lost handkerchief? Why did this young master mobilize such a large force?"

Sheng Xiaoliu patted her friend's hand and whispered, "Because the handkerchief is something close to her body, even if we can't find it, we have to find a reason to spread the news. Otherwise, if something happens in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it clearly."

Yu Yanran suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's how it is. The young master is really thoughtful."

Sheng Xiaoliu said, "Young Master has always been very meticulous in his work, but I feel like something is a little strange about what happened today."

"What are you wondering about?" Yu Yanran asked.

Sheng Xiaoliu whispered, "Tell me, why would a maid steal a handkerchief? If it was for money, why wouldn't she steal something so valuable from the young master?"

Yu Yanran also reacted: "If it's not for money, then she stole the handkerchief for..."

In the end, she didn't dare to continue.

Because there is only one answer.

If you don't steal for money, then you steal for people.

This answer is indeed a bit embarrassing.

Sheng Xiaoliu couldn't help but laugh shyly, but then she said.

"That's not right. If she was greedy for the young master's thing, she should have put the handkerchief away properly. But my father just said in public in the inner hall that he would search the place, and she must have heard it. If that's the case, she could have just thrown the handkerchief away and no one would have suspected her. But why was it found so easily in the end? And even after being beaten with a stick, she still refused to admit that she was the one who did it. I'm afraid there's something fishy about this matter."

Yu Yanran asked, "What's strange?"

Sheng Xiaoliu thought for a moment before saying, "I think it's most likely she didn't steal the handkerchief. The person who actually stole it probably heard my father was going to search the house, panicked, and stuffed it on her. That's why she was completely unaware of the handkerchief and took the blame for it."

"Isn't this just a frame-up? Who could be so vicious?" Yu Yanran said with disdain: "She could have just thrown the handkerchief on the side of the road, why frame Suqin?"

Suqin is the maid who stole the handkerchief.

Sheng Xiaoliu continued, "Because she can't go to the roadside."

Yu Yanran was puzzled: "I don't understand?"

When Sheng Xiaoliu thought of this, he was a little panicked, but he still said.

"That is, the person who stole the handkerchief was trapped in the inner hall and couldn't get out by herself, so she had to secretly stuff the handkerchief into Suqin's body."

Speaking of this, a picture flashed through Sheng Xiaoliu's mind.

She immediately knew who the murderer was.

"No, Suqin was wrongly accused. I have to tell my mother, otherwise she will beat her to death."

Sheng Xiaoliu was about to turn around and return to the inner hall.

Yu Yanran grabbed her and said, "Wait, if you tell your stepmother like this, she won't believe it. It might even add fuel to the fire. Suqin might even get punished more severely. Let's go find the young master. This is his business, and he's more effective than anyone else."

Sheng Xiaoliu immediately shook his head: "No, the young master is a stranger, it's not easy to tell him about this. Why don't we go find my second brother?"

Yu Yanran nodded immediately: "That's right, your second brother has always been a stern-faced Buddha who supports what is right and not what is personal. If he steps in, it will definitely work."

The two immediately prepared to go look for Sheng Changbai.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly walked out from the corner.

After seeing that person, they were immediately shocked.

Because the person who came was none other than Young Master Qi Heng.

"Meet the young master."

Sheng Xiaoliu was a little panicked at this moment.

Qi Heng glanced at Sheng Xiaoliu and said, "Sixth sister, you have talent in the boudoir, but you seem like a seasoned official solving cases. But we've been classmates for so long, when did I become a traitor?"

Qi Heng walked forward slowly while talking.

Sheng Xiaoliu was so frightened that he pulled Yu Yanran back repeatedly.

At this moment, a stone suddenly fell from the sky and hit Qi Heng's feet.

Qi Heng had no choice but to stop.

At the same time, a voice rang out from above them. "Yang Er Yi, Wu Qiong (Six) Er Lai."

"Why aren't you a foreigner?"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them immediately looked up.

Then, a figure appeared on a nearby tall tree.

At this moment, the man was lying on the top of the tree, holding a gourd in his hand, and seemed to be drinking.

Everyone was puzzled as to how such a heavy person could lie there.

Moreover, the top of the tree was six or seven meters above the ground. How on earth did he get up there?

However, Sheng Xiaoliu recognized the man's identity at a glance.

I quickly asked, "Brother-in-law, when did you get here?"

There are only two people who can be called "Sister" by Sheng Xiaoliu.

One is her eldest brother-in-law, and the other is her cousin-in-law.

And the one who could appear in Sheng Mansion at this moment could only be the latter.

Because the latter has been coming to her house every day to study recently.

That's right, that person is Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao looked down and said, "I've been here for a long time, probably since you guys said our young master was making too many moves."

When these words came out, Sheng Xiaoliu immediately shrank his head.

Doesn't that mean he heard the whole conversation between the two?

"Sixth sister, you are so amazing! Such reasoning ability is not something that ordinary men can possess. Growing up in this deep mansion is really a waste of your talent."

At this time, Qi Heng also looked up and said, "Brother Tuizhi, you are quite elegant, but what you said just now was too polite."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiao immediately turned over.

After seeing Zhao's actions, Sheng Xiaoliu and Yu Yanran subconsciously exclaimed.

“Ah~ Be careful!”

But before they could finish shouting, Lu Xiao had already landed steadily on the ground.

Then he looked at Qi Heng: "Are you being polite? I don't think so. First, your last name isn't Sheng, and second, you're not the son-in-law of the Sheng family, so you're just an outsider. Do you want to marry a girl from the Sheng family like me?"

As soon as these words came out, the two girls behind him blushed deeply.

Because in their opinion, this statement was too bold.

Qi Heng said unconvincedly, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm a man and it doesn't matter to me. But if you cause harm to the reputation of the young ladies of the Sheng family, I will never forgive you!"

Lu Xiao has been studying at the Sheng family for some time.

His talent was recognized by his classmates and teachers.

Therefore, several classmates are willing to get along well with him on weekdays.

But Qi Heng was puzzled. He didn't know why Lu Xiao always liked to oppose him.

Even if he gave in every time, it was of no avail.

Chapter 85 Mama's Boy

Lu Xiao really didn't bother to deal with this mama's boy.

But ignoring it is not an option.

So I could only speak in a sullen manner.

"You know how important reputation is to my sister, but have you ever considered avoiding suspicion in your actions?"

Qi Heng remained unconvinced: "I'm doing this for my sixth sister's sake."

Lu Xiao said, "Don't call me so affectionate. This is my sixth sister, not yours. I hate people like you who think they're mama's boys. You say you're doing good for others, but your actions never consider their feelings, and you never consider whether your actions will cause trouble for others. Honestly, you've been spoiled by your parents, and you think everyone has to revolve around you."

Although Sheng Xiaoliu behind him didn't say anything, his eyes showed approval.

She hasn't fallen in love with Qi Heng yet.

She was precocious and intelligent since childhood, so how could she not see Qi Heng's feelings for her?

But she has always kept her distance from it.

Because she knows who she is.

Knowing how big the gap is between her family background and Qi Heng's.

If two people want to be together, the obstacles can definitely be described as worlds apart.

As for why Xiaoliu would fall in love with Qi Heng in the future.

I wasn't moved by his so-called sincerity.

But in the end, he broke his promise to Sheng Xiaoliu time and time again, making Sheng Xiaoliu a laughing stock in the entire Bianliang City.

Lu Xiao naturally wouldn't like such an irresponsible person.

Don't say Qi Heng has his own reasons.
