"Is it funny?"
Gu Changsheng looked at Yao Xian speechlessly.
"Yes, is it funny?" Yao Xian asked back, not knowing whether it was funny or not, but her smile remained.
Li Wanyun and Dan Chun were incredibly envious seeing Yao Xian chatting and laughing with Gu Changsheng, knowing that they had been coming every day for the past few days, but had said less than five sentences to Gu Changsheng combined. In their eyes, this level of conversation was already considered "flirting."
Could it be that men who are breathtakingly handsome have such unique tastes? They like country girls? If I had known, I would have dressed like a country person.
Li Wanyun and Dan Chun couldn't help but doubt Gu Changsheng's taste. It's not surprising that they would think this way, after all, Yao Xian's appearance is ordinary now. After changing her soul aura, her eyes have also changed, and her temperament is more inclined towards a country girl. Moreover, they would never believe that Yao Xian is a cultivator who can change her body shape and appearance at will. In their worldview, "immortals" are just legends. Even if it is rumored that the national teacher of the Southern Xiang Kingdom is an "omnipotent" "immortal master", they have never seen it and just regard it as an exaggerated advertisement.
A national teacher, if they are not described as powerful, how can ordinary people be convinced?
Just as they were having complex thoughts, they heard Gu Changsheng's voice.
"Where did this little rascal come from? Doesn't he know what this place is?"
Little rascal?
Just as Li Wanyun and Dan Chun were trying to understand what this meant, Qian Jiahao's response made them realize that Gu Changsheng was referring to Qian Jiahao. But Qian Jiahao is not young, how can he be considered a little rascal?
"Are you calling me a little rascal?" Although he didn't know what a little rascal meant, he understood from the literal meaning that it wasn't a good thing.
"Young master, he's calling you a bastard!"
A weasel-eyed person behind him, who looked like a dog-headed strategist, was confident that he understood correctly. A little rascal, the child of a wild bear, isn't that a bastard?
"Hmm?" Qian Jiahao glared at him, and the dog-headed strategist immediately took two steps back, but still said, "Young master, I didn't say it, it was him, it was him."
The dog-headed strategist pointed at Gu Changsheng.
"Humph." Qian Jiahao snorted coldly, then looked at Gu Changsheng with a gloomy face. In fact, there was a secret in his heart, a secret that only he and his father knew. He was an illegitimate child, and in a large family, another name for an illegitimate child is a bastard.
The dog-headed strategist's distortion of the meaning of "little rascal" had touched a sore spot in his heart.
"I don't care what this place is, if you offend this young master, this young master will make you regret it." Qian Jiahao was already somewhat outwardly strong but inwardly weak.
"Go, teach him a lesson, but don't kill him." Qian Jiahao said to his followers. Although Qian Jiahao was a纨绔子弟, he didn't dare to kill people. At most, he would do some bullying, because of the existence of the national teacher, the laws of the Southern Xiang Kingdom were strict, and even the royal family would be held accountable for violating the law.
Qian Jiahao, the son of a wealthy gentry, had been instilled from childhood that he must not harm anyone's life. Small troubles could be resolved with the Qian family's ability, but once someone was killed, the only thing the Qian family could do was sever ties with Qian Jiahao.
Apart from the dog-headed strategist, several strong men walked towards Gu Changsheng with ferocious faces.
"Boy, you dare to call our young master a bastard, you have guts!"
A strong man said with a grin.
Qian Jiahao's face darkened. He wanted to scold this idiot, but he couldn't open his mouth. He could only curse this follower in his heart, wishing him to be destroyed.
A clueless idiot. Qian Jiahao thought coldly in his heart.
"Are you just going to watch?" Gu Changsheng saw that Yao Xian was still smiling, and didn't know what was so funny. They are attacking your future husband, and you are still laughing.
But Yao Xian said, "I want to see what you will do."
Gu Changsheng gave her a white eye. How could he not know Yao Xian's thoughts? Yao Xian really regarded him as someone who came to the mortal world to experience life, and also wanted to learn how he would do it without using the power of a cultivator.
Thinking about it, Gu Changsheng said, "Since you are refining your heart in the mortal world, you must follow the survival rules of the mortal world."
Seeing that Gu Changsheng was still in the mood to talk to a woman, completely ignoring them, the strong men were all furious.
In Tianrao City, apart from the city guard and the Li family, there was no one they couldn't afford to offend. This person dared to ignore them, truly ignorance is bliss.
"Boy, you have guts!"
The strong man who spoke earlier came to Gu Changsheng first, stretched out his thick arm and grabbed towards Gu Changsheng, and his heart had already thought of the scene of him lifting this pretty boy with one hand, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Blame you for being too arrogant and calling our young master a bastard!
"Crack!"
What sound?
A trace of doubt flashed through the strong man's mind, but then a sharp pain came from his wrist.
"Ah..."
The strong man screamed miserably, his wrist twisted into a strange arc.
Then Gu Changsheng gently kicked the strong man away, and the flying strong man knocked down his companions, Qian Jiahao, and the dog-headed strategist, causing a chorus of wails.
Gu Changsheng's shot was very light, very light, super light, he didn't want their lives, but he couldn't avoid the pain of flesh and blood, and these people were all injured.
After doing all this, Gu Changsheng ignored Li Wanyun and Dan Chun's shocked gazes, and he said to Yao Xian, "If it were you, what would you do?"
Yao Xian was stunned, and then said, "I would kill them all."
Although Yao Xian was very well protected by Yao Tianchen after she was born, Yao Tianchen would not delay the things that should be taught. He has always taught Yao Xian that this world is a very cruel world. If you make enemies, you must cut the grass and root out the roots, and not give the other party any chance.
So when Yao Xian said to kill them all, her tone was very calm, as if she was narrating a very ordinary thing, causing Li Wanyun and Dan Chun to take two steps back unconsciously, and they sighed in their hearts that this woman was ruthless.
Gu Changsheng nodded lightly and said, "I knew it."
Seeing that Gu Changsheng didn't kill anyone, Yao Xian lowered her head in shame. Would he think I am a bloodthirsty female demon?
"If it were normal, killing them would be killing them. But refining the heart in the mortal world is different." Gu Changsheng didn't know what Yao Xian was thinking, he just said softly.
"The four words 'refining the heart in the mortal world' seem simple to say, but it is actually very difficult for people like us."
Yao Xian raised her head and looked at Gu Changsheng seriously.
Gu Changsheng said, "I said just now that to refine the heart in the mortal world, you need to follow the survival rules of the mortal world. The so-called survival rules are the various rules of the mortal world. For example, in Tianrao City, the laws prohibit harming and killing people. They attacked me, and then I attacked them. This is self-defense, which is reasonable and legal, but they had no intention to kill me, so I did not kill them."
"After all, killing people will always cause trouble."
"This kind of practice of mine is called restraint!"
"Understood." Yao Xian nodded, she already understood what Gu Changsheng meant. If Gu Changsheng killed these people here, not to mention that the other party's family would retaliate, according to the laws of the Southern Xiang Kingdom, troubles would follow one after another. After the troubles come, they would continue to kill, and there would be other troubles.
Of course, if you slap the Southern Xiang Kingdom to death, this kind of trouble will be gone.
But is it necessary?
Refining the heart in the mortal world is a journey of the heart, to make one's heart stronger. Entering the mortal world to experience life is to observe the changes of the world from the perspective of mortals. If you encounter a little trouble and do things that exceed the rules of the world, then there is no need to refine the heart.
Cultivators themselves surpass mortals countless times. If everything is done according to the cultivator's set of rules, then don't call it experience, just start killing in the mortal world.
Mortal world experience requires restraint and following the survival rules of the mortal world.
Yao Xian thought secretly.
On the other side, Gu Changsheng threw Qian Jiahao and others out of the tavern.
"If you want revenge, remember to tell your adults that you caused trouble in the Changsheng Tavern, so that your adults don't know who you have offended, and then kneel down and beg for mercy."
Qian Jiahao was also injured. He felt that his bones were falling apart from that collision, but now that he was thrown into the street by Gu Changsheng, what he felt was not pain, but a kind of shame.
A large number of onlookers had gathered around him at some point. The eyes of these onlookers were full of ridicule, as if they had known that he would end up like this.
Qian Jiahao was at a loss. He had just returned from another place and had not yet returned home, but when he heard that the courtesan of the Red Flower House had come to this tavern, he hurriedly brought his followers over. He knew nothing about the details of the Changsheng Tavern.
Wait...
Qian Jiahao found the problem.
That is, the location of the Changsheng Tavern. Isn't this the most luxurious inn in Tianrao City? How did it become a tavern?
He vaguely remembered that his father, Qian Renfu, wanted to take over this inn, but he couldn't buy it no matter what he did. Thinking of what Gu Changsheng said to him just now, Qian Jiahao felt a chill in his heart.
"Go!"
Qian Jiahao said, and then, with the mutual support of several strong men, returned to Qian's house.
...
