Chapter 245: Proposing Marriage
Li Hanxue glanced at Yuan Lingtong, and swung the Zhenlong handcuffs on her wrists, making a clanging sound: "I say, Miss Lingtong, you are a grown woman, and you have been tied to me all the time. Is this appropriate?"
Yuan Lingtong was lying on the bed, with her face bare, and she laughed: "Originally, I wanted to secretly unlock the Zhenlong handcuffs while you were asleep, and then handcuff you with the Zhenlong handcuffs and send you to the water dungeon. But now I have changed my mind. I found that you are really cunning and I have to be on guard. If you pretend to be asleep and suddenly attack me when I unlock the handcuffs, it will be troublesome."
Li Hanxue killed the Nether Leopard with two punches on the Three Beasts Mountain. The impression left in Yuan Lingtong's mind was too deep. She had never seen such a ferocious person, who could be so powerful even when his cultivation was suppressed. Although the villagers were all tall and strong, they were nothing compared to this seemingly gentle boy. Let alone ordinary villagers, even if Yuan Changdong, the strongest fighter in the village, took action, he might not be able to do the same as Li Hanxue.
However, Li Hanxue's rescue did not earn Yuan Lingtong gratitude, but more vigilance.
Yuan Lingtong had made up her mind that she would never open the Zhenlong handcuffs easily without 100% certainty.
"The first method is to wait for Brother Hong Yang to return to the village, and the Zhenlong handcuffs can be opened naturally. The second method is to use a knockout drug to knock him out, and then unlock the Zhenlong handcuffs. But this is still not safe. I heard that many outsiders have special physiques and are immune to drugs. I must be cautious."
It must be said that Yuan Lingtong's caution is almost abnormal. If Li Hanxue knew that Yuan Lingtong had this idea, she would probably vomit three liters of blood.
"From what she said, this girl should know how to open the Zhenlong handcuffs." Li Hanxue thought to herself, "I must find a chance for her to help me open the handcuffs. I can't waste time here anymore."
Li Hanxue lowered her brows and thought for a long time without speaking. The one-year appointment with Wang Fengyang was imminent, and Zhou Buzheng was even more aggressive. The life and death of the battle with Wang Fengyang was still unknown, and if Zhou Buzheng came again, the situation would be extremely bad. Li Hanxue couldn't afford to waste any time. Although he was anxious, it was useless. The Zhenlong handcuffs on his wrists caused too many restrictions on him, and he couldn't use his cultivation at all.
Facing the warm yellow light, Yuan Lingtong turned sideways, her black hair fell to her ears, and the light shone on her pretty face, making her look very charming. Yuan Lingtong stared at Li Hanxue with her beautiful eyes wide open: "Li Shiba, where do you outsiders come from?"
Li Hanxue ignored her and said: "Even if I tell you, you won't know where it is."
Yuan Lingtong was annoyed: "Hmph, forget it."
The moon set and the sun rose. The next morning, when Li Hanxue woke up, Yuan Lingtong also opened her eyes.
"Miss, it's not good!" A maid with a delicate appearance ran in, her face full of anxiety.
Yuan Lingtong calmed the maid's emotions: "Xiao Fen, what's the matter? Don't panic, tell me slowly."
The maid swallowed her saliva and said anxiously: "There are many...many people from outside the village."
"Who are they? Are they from the neighboring Lihe Village?" Yuan Lingtong said calmly.
"Yes, it's them." The maid said.
Linyuan Village and Lihe Village are very close. Because of land and mineral issues, there have always been frictions, and the relationship between the two villages is extremely bad. Yuan Lingtong's grandfather had been fighting overtly and covertly, and the relationship had not improved until Yuan Lingtong's generation. A few months ago, people from Lihe Village came to cause trouble, but were repelled by the masters of Linyuan Village.
"Didn't they feel that they had suffered enough last time? Do they still want to ask for trouble?" Yuan Lingtong raised her eyebrows.
At this time, Pei Sifeng walked in with a sweet smile, "Lingtong, you are wrong. This time it is not trouble, but your blessing."
"Pei Sifeng, what do you mean by this?" Yuan Lingtong stared at Pei Sifeng with a frown.
"They are all dressed in formal clothes, coming in groups with big and small boxes. Naturally, they are here to propose marriage. Gu Yu, the son of the village chief of Lihe Village, is handsome, talented, and good at both literature and martial arts. I envy you for marrying such a talent." Pei Sifeng said, but cast her eyes on Li Hanxue.
Gui Sun Bing was very cunning and laughed: "Master, this old bitch might be interested in you."
Li Hanxue felt a chill: "Shut up."
Yuan Lingtong listened to Pei Sifeng's words and said coldly: "Since you like him so much, you can marry him yourself. I don't want to marry someone like him."
Gu Yu from Lihe Village has a beautiful face. However, he is a dissolute person, flirting with women and being affectionate everywhere. Many girls in the village have been harmed by him. Because of the majesty of the village chief, everyone dared not speak out. The last time Gu Yu came to Linyuan Village, he was attracted by Yuan Lingtong's beauty and couldn't forget her. He came here last month to seduce Yuan Lingtong, but was driven away by Yuan Lingtong. Yuan Lingtong didn't expect that this man was so thick-skinned that he dared to come back today.
"Well, whether you agree or not. After all, they brought so much money as a gift, which is also a token of their goodwill. You have to go out and take a look. Come with me."
Although Yuan Lingtong was extremely reluctant, she had no choice. If this matter was not resolved, Gu Yu would never give up and would definitely come to cause trouble again.
After leaving the room and walking through the big arena, to the north of Linyuan Village, a group of people dressed in colorful clothes and riding tall horses passed by the path of Linyuan Village with high spirits.
Gu Yu sat on the big horse, pointing at the poor thatched cottages around her, talking and laughing with a pale young man next to her.
"Brother Yi, you see, this Linyuan Village is really backward. It's all thatched houses. It can't compare with our Lihe Village. In such a place where birds don't shit, there is actually a wonderful person like Yuan Lingtong. It's really contrary to common sense that beauty comes out of poor places." Gu Yu laughed.
The pale-faced young man's name was Yipeng, and he was the helper Gu Yu had invited this time. Yipeng glanced at Linyuan Village and seemed not to be very interested in it.
"Remember that after everything is done, you agree to my conditions."
"Of course, if I can get a beauty like Yuan Lingtong, I won't be stingy with a little money." Gu Yu laughed.
A group of people galloped, raising dust all over the sky, and rushed to Yuan Changdong's residence. Not long after, Gu Yu and others had settled in front of Yuan Changdong's residence. There were forty people in total. They were all full of vitality and sharp eyes. They didn't look like they were giving gifts, but they looked like they were here to rob.
"Gu Yu, what are you doing here?" Yuan Changdong recognized Gu Yu, and saw the unhappiness on Gu Yu's face without concealing it. At the same time, Yuan Changdong was afraid that things might change, so he sent his servants to be on the safe side. Called everyone in the village together.
"Father-in-law, can't you see it? With my outfit, what else can I do besides propose marriage to you? Is Miss Lingtong here? Please let her come out to see me. She will miss me to death. "Gu Yu looked so anxious that even the people behind his team felt very embarrassed and secretly cursed him for being mentally retarded.
Yuan Changdong said coldly: "Lingtong is not here. You can go back with your people and things. Our Linyuan Village does not welcome you people from Lihe Village."
"Who said you weren't here? Father-in-law, look at Miss Lingtong, isn't she already here?"
Yuan Changdong took a look and saw Yuan Lingtong, Li Hanxue, and Pei Sifeng walking towards them.
