Chapter 385: Kindness Is Hard to Refuse

"Black Qing Locust? Gong Xiurong? How come you are here?"

Mu Nanjin was surprised that they appeared in the Mu Mansion, and was even more surprised that the two of them walked together. After all, Black Qing Locust had assassinated Gong Xiurong a few years ago.

Gong Xiurong smiled and snorted: "Didn't you say that you would come back to me after you were done? In the end, I came to see you myself."

"The first thing I did when I returned to the mortal world was to see you, but you were no longer in the ancient country of Dongzhao, and the emperor had changed to someone else, and then..."

Speaking of this, Mu Nanjin stopped talking.

Gong Xiurong asked: "What happened later?"

[Later, I went to Prime Minister Wu's mansion and stole Prime Minister Wu's precious tea leaves, hehe. 】

Gong Xiurong, Hei Qinghuang: "..."

Mu Nanjin said: "After returning to Daqian, you still tell me how you came to Daqian?"

Gong Xiurong sat down and said: "I am now a cultivator. The road to cultivation is long and dangerous. I don't know how long I can live. But my mother and grandmother are still mortals. Their lifespans are not long. Even if there are elixirs to increase their lifespans, their lifespans are limited. My grandfather and I decided to stay in the mortal world to accompany them for a while, and then decide to leave when my mother and grandmother's lifespans are over."

Mu Nan Jin asked: "Your mother and grandmother can't practice?"

"I tested them and they don't have spiritual roots and can't practice. But they have come to terms with it. They are very satisfied that they can live hundreds of years longer than others after taking the longevity pill."

"If that's the case, why did you come to Daqian Kingdom?"

"I have been in the ancient Beihan Kingdom for two months, and he..." Gong Xiurong raised his chin to Hei Qinghuang: "He just happened to want to go to Daqian Kingdom, so he came with him."

Mu Nanjin was even more curious: "How did you get together?"

Hei Qinghuang turned his face away, looking like he didn't want to say anything.

Gong Xiurong laughed: "It's a bit funny to talk about this, and it all started two months ago. When we came to the mortal world together, my grandfather mistook him for a god and treated him with respect and enthusiasm. He repeatedly explained that he was not a god, but my grandfather just didn't believe him and even invited him to the ancient country of Beihan."

Hei Qinghuang exhaled lightly: "It's hard to refuse such a kind invitation."

"In the end, he couldn't stand my grandfather's hospitality and told me about the assassination attempt on me a few years ago. My grandfather turned hostile and fought with him on the spot. In the end, he was seriously injured and rested for more than a month before recovering. Then I suggested coming to find you."

Although Gong Xiurong was also angry that Hei Qinghuang had assassinated him, he forgave him when he saw that he was beaten so badly by his grandfather and he didn't suffer any injuries that year.

Mu Nanjin was a little speechless: "Why did Wuyuan come to the mortal world in the first place?"

Hei Qinghuang said: "I came here because I heard the call."

"Who is calling you?"

"The Emperor of Heaven who once borrowed my body will not leave Daqian so soon this time."

Mu Nanjin: "..."

Gong Xiurong said: "Mu Nanjin, I have no place to live in Daqian. You must take me in during my stay in Daqian. I wonder if you welcome me?"

[I can see two more handsome men every day, of course I welcome it. ]

Mu Nanjin said: "I'll let Zhenzhu clean up the room."

Gong Xiurong said: "By the way, how are the three brothels I gave you? Are they as lively as before?"

Mu Nanjin nodded: "More lively than before, I'll take you to have a look tomorrow."

"Okay." Gong Xiurong missed the days in the brothels very much: "I wonder if they still remember me as their boss."

"I definitely remember."

[Such a beautiful man, I will remember him even if I die. ]

Gong Xiurong was so handsome.

Black Dragonfly: "..."

Mu Nanjin sent a message to Wu Yuan, asking him to replace her to go to the state residence tomorrow to protect everyone's safety.

The next morning, Black Dragonfly went to the palace to meet the emperor.

After breakfast, Mu Nanjin also took Gong Xiurong away from the Mu Mansion.

They did not ride horses, but flew all the way there using Qinggong.

Gong Xiurong followed Mu Nanjin and asked in confusion: "Where are we going?"

Mu Nanjin said: "To see the brothel you left for me."

"Go so early?" Gong Xiurong was surprised: "Will it not disturb their rest?"

"They have already got up to work at this hour."

Gong Xiurong frowned slightly: "You let them receive guests during the day?"

Mu Nanjin nodded: "They work twelve hours a day, otherwise they are too busy."

"Can their bodies bear it?"

"They work in turns, and it does not affect their rest."

Gong Xiurong smiled: "I really didn't expect that you are better at running a brothel than me."

Mu Nanjin looked at him and said nothing.

[There will be something more unexpected happening later. ]

Gong Xiurong became even more curious.

Half a cup of tea later, they came to the street of Tangshenfu.

Gong Xiurong observed the surrounding environment: "I remember this is the direction to Xiaoqinglou. Hey, there is a long line in front. What are they doing?"

Mu Nanjin said: "Go and see."

The direction of the queue was exactly the direction of Xiaoqing Tower. Gong Xiurong asked the middle-aged man in the queue curiously: "Uncle, what are you doing?"

The middle-aged man looked at him: "Young Master, are you from another place?"

Gong Xiurong smiled slightly: "Yes."

The middle-aged man pointed to the front and said: "We are queuing up to drink soup now."

"Drink soup?" Gong Xiurong didn't expect this answer: "The soup in the soup?"

"Yes. The soup in Tangshen Mansion is magical. It can not only nourish the body, but also help cure diseases, so everyone is queuing up to buy soup."

"So magical?"

Gong Xiurong thanked the middle-aged man and walked towards Tangshen Mansion.

When he arrived at the gate of Tangshen Mansion, he was stunned. He looked around again, and after confirming again and again, he asked Mu Nanjin who followed him: "Isn't this Xiaoqinglou? Did I remember it wrong?"

Mu Nanjin said: "This used to be Xiaoqinglou, but after I came back, it was changed to Tangshen Mansion. I only drink soup and don't do other things."

Gong Xiurong: "..."

At this time, the waiter of Tangshen Mansion came out and shouted: "Everyone line up, don't squeeze."

Gong Xiurong looked at the tall and strong waiter, and his eyes widened suddenly: "Isn't he, he, he Sishui?"

Before he left, Sishui ranked only below him. At that time, Sishui was handsome, tall and thin, like a sickly beautiful man, which made many guests feel sorry for him, but now his face is like a big pancake, so fat that he dare not recognize him.

Mu Nanjin nodded: "Yes, it's Sishui."

Gong Xiurong said with heartache: "How come the young man I carefully trained has become a strong young man?"

Mu Nanjin was also very sad. Since Xiaoqinglou became Tangshenfu, all the thin young men have become strong men.

[If you drink nourishing soup every day, it would be strange if you are not strong. ]

[I should have changed Xiaoqinglou into Zuifang earlier. ]

[It's too late to regret now. There are no beautiful men to look at. ]

Gong Xiurong: "..."

Mu Nanjin invited him: "Let's go in."

"Okay."

Gong Xiurong walked inside, but was pushed back to his original position. He looked up and saw that the other party looked at him with shocked eyes. (End of this chapter)
