Chapter 96 Marry Me, an 8-Year-Old Old Woman
Chapter 96 Marry Me, an -year-old Old Woman (Subscription Request)
With a clang, the door was closed, the candle on the candlestick flickered, and the flame dimmed.
In response to the old lady's question, Zhao Tianyou just turned around and stood beside Lu Chengfeng silently.
When the old lady was with the ancestor of the Zhao family, she was a maid named Yuchai. Later, she was taken as a concubine and was called Zhao Qian.
She is old and experienced, and has experienced a lot in her life. She can understand a lot of things just by looking at this situation.
The bead in her hand stopped, and she looked at Lu Chengfeng who was sitting next to her and said, "May I ask this gentleman's name?"
Lu Chengfeng said, "I have a nickname called Jun Yanluo, and I have some reputation in the martial arts world. Old lady is well-informed, so you should have heard of me, right?"
Zhao Qian's pupils shrank slightly. If it was someone from Zhongzhou, it would be easy to deal with. In the territory of Zhongzhou, there was nothing that the Sky Patrol could not handle.
But if other states are involved, it will be a bit troublesome, and not everyone will give face to the Sky Patrol.
"I have been hanging around in Sanxian Mountain for a long time, and I also want to live a peaceful life and enjoy a few days of wealth and glory for a few years, so I asked Brother Tianyou to invite the old lady to help me."
Lu Chengfeng spoke slowly.
Zhao Qianshi was able to keep her composure. Even though she knew that the man in front of her was a vicious bandit leader, she did not show any fear or nervousness. She just asked, "Sir, please tell me what you want me to do. If I can do it, I will never refuse."
Lu Chengfeng said slowly: "This matter is also simple, all I need is for the old lady to marry me."
After these words were spoken, not to mention Zhao Qianshi, even Zhao Tianyou who was standing next to him looked as if he had seen a ghost. His eyeballs were about to pop out of his head. He even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Zhao Qian couldn't help but be stunned for a long while. After looking at Lu Chengfeng for a moment, she said helplessly: "Young Master, please don't make such a joke. I am a person whose body is half buried in the ground. I don't care about anything. If you need any help, just speak up."
Lu Chengfeng smiled calmly, "Of course I'm not joking, I just need the old lady to agree to this."
"I know that you adopted several children decades ago, and you have a large family over the years. Now you can say that four generations live under one roof, and your children and grandchildren are all at your side to show your filial piety."
"If I'm not mistaken, those so-called adopted sons and daughters should all be your biological children, right? Were they the result of an affair with some big shot?"
When Zhao Qian heard this shocking statement for the first time, she did not show any panic on her face. Instead, she sneered and said, "Sir, if you have nothing else to say, I will take my leave first. This kind of joke is really unbearable to hear."
Lu Chengfeng just smiled and said, "Do you think I am discussing this with you? Whether you agree or not, this matter has been decided. I am just informing you."
"If you say no, your whole family will be wiped out."
Zhao Qian's expression finally changed, and she tightly grasped the beads in her hands. "Do you know what my status and position are in Zhongzhou? How dare you say such a thing? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to leave Zhongdu?"
Lu Chengfeng said in a light tone: "You can try to see if the person behind you can protect you."
"Of course, I'll kill your entire family before you spread the news."
"Oh, by the way, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. I have another identity."
He stood up slowly and said to the outside, "Bring the things in."
"Yes, sir." The attendant guarding outside agreed. Not long after, the door was opened, and a man came in with a mahogany box and placed it next to the desk where the old lady was sitting.
After putting the box down, he retreated respectfully.
With a click, the door was closed again.
"I am a member of the Youdu Xiang clan, the commander of Youzhou. Nice to meet you, old lady. This is a gift from me for you." Lu Chengfeng said with a smile, "Old lady, why don't you open it and take a look?"
Zhao Qianshi closed her eyes, and after a long while she sighed, "Is Youzhou going to attack Zhongzhou? Why do you big shots need to get involved with the affairs of an old woman like me?"
"I'm already half buried in the ground, and I just want to enjoy a few more years of peace and quiet. Why do I have to do this? Why do I have to do this!"
Blood gradually seeped out of the mahogany box, gradually flowed onto the table, and dripped onto the ground drop by drop.
Lu Chengfeng smiled and said, "Old lady, you have enjoyed a lot in your life. You followed the old ancestor of the Zhao family before, and later followed other bigwigs. Although you didn't have a formal status, you were rich and prosperous, with fine clothes and delicious food."
"On the contrary, the descendants of the Zhao family respected and protected you in every way, but ended up with no descendants."
"Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you!"
"You should understand that for people like us, there are some things that don't require evidence. You are who you say you are, because words can deceive people, but interests cannot."
"You, an old lady, are able to live so freely in Zhongdu, with children and grandchildren all around you, and you are rich and leisurely. Do you really think that everyone is a fool?"
"It's a pity that the Zhao family was destroyed because of you."
"I'm a little curious, when the Zhao family was exterminated sixty years ago, were you involved?"
Hearing Lu Chengfeng's words, the old lady suddenly threw the beads in her hand to the ground, "You are simply talking nonsense. I am also heartbroken when the Zhao family is in trouble. How could those things be related to me?"
Lu Chengfeng waved his hand, and the sword energy was so strong that it instantly shattered all the thirty-six beads that fell on the ground.
After doing all this, he clapped his hands and exclaimed: "You are indeed a cunning old man. If I am not careful, I am afraid I will really fall into your trap."
"You dropped this bead to the ground. It seems that you are angry for a moment, but you actually want to spread the news, right?"
"It seems that you still refuse to be honest!"
"Huzi." He said to the outside of the door, "Spread the news to Xiongshan and the others, and send me the head of the grandson whom the old lady loved the most."
"You!" Zhao Qianshi's calm and composed attitude became completely unbearable after the beads were completely shattered by the sword energy. A look of exasperation appeared on her face. "What on earth do you want to do?"
Lu Chengfeng put away all his fake smiles, and a cold and indifferent look appeared on his face. "You do whatever I say. How can you, an old man, resist?" "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. Do you really think I don't know what you, an old man, have done over the years?"
"How dare you get involved in what's going on at the Shenxian Building? Aren't you a man whose family has been destroyed and whose wife and children have been separated from you?"
"Stop pretending to be innocent here. It's no wonder that your whole family was tortured to death."
"If you are obedient, I will spare your life and give you a place to stay. If you dare to be mean to me again, I will kill your whole family first."
"That's all I have to say. If you don't listen to my advice, your whole family will die. Don't say I didn't warn you!"
As he spoke, he took out the marriage certificate that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve, and there was pen and ink ready on the table.
"Sign this marriage certificate. I will have someone send it to the Sky Patrol Department for record. Then you will be my Jun Yanluo's wife."
Zhao Qianshi really had no idea what he was up to, but at her age, she no longer cared about her reputation. Things had come to this point, so she decided to just see what this young man in front of her was up to.
Could it be that he really wanted to marry this 80-year-old woman? That would be a huge joke. She would not believe a single word of it and had already guessed that there must be a conspiracy.
Thinking of this, she no longer hesitated, reached out and picked up the pen, and wrote her maiden name - Qian Yuxiu - on the marriage certificate.
"Qian Yuxiu, that's a good name." Seeing her sign the marriage certificate, Lu Chengfeng finally smiled. "It's a pity that you, an old thing, don't deserve this name. You can't even count how many people you've killed over the years. Aren't you afraid that you'll be haunted by ghosts on your way to the underworld?"
Now that it was done, a huge weight of relief finally fell from his heart.
Zhao Qianshi no longer pretended to be kind and benevolent, and sneered, "How dare you, a bandit who has killed countless people, say such things? You and I are no better than each other, and you, Sanxianshan, are also involved in the business of Shenxianlou, so why do you have to pretend to be a gentleman?"
"After all, you and I are in the same boat, so why bother putting on such a show here?"
Lu Chengfeng just sneered. He could sense that golden flames had already begun to burn at the Ming Xing Lingtai, but it seemed that it was still missing some key points and could not completely break through that barrier.
His mind was completely focused on the gift, so he had no time to talk nonsense with the old man. He just said, "Since you have signed the marriage certificate, you are my wife. Do you recognize me?"
This time he deliberately did not say the three words Jun Yanluo.
Zhao Qianshi had already given up everything at this time. She had dared to betray the Zhao family in the past, and later she hooked up with the big shots of the Sky Patrol Bureau and got involved in the business of the Shenxian Building. Naturally, she was a bold and ruthless person.
Then he said directly: "Since you are willing to marry an old woman in her eighties, why shouldn't I agree?"
Lu Chengfeng said: "In this case, from today on, you and I are husband and wife."
Zhao Qianshi just said, "Okay!"
Lu Chengfeng picked up the pen at this time and also signed his name on the marriage certificate, but he deliberately blocked the view of the other two people and wrote the three words "Lu Chengfeng" on it.
After finishing writing, the sea of consciousness between the eyebrows suddenly changed, as if golden lightning exploded, and there was a sharp pain between the eyebrows, as if someone had pierced through the head with a sharp blade. My eyes went black and I almost fainted.
He quickly put away the marriage certificate and said to Zhao Tianyou beside him: "Brother Tianyou, I have redeemed the Zhao family's ancestral home. I have arranged for people to clean it up as soon as possible."
"However, you have to arrange the arrangements yourself, and take this old guy with you."
Zhao Tianyou nodded. Although he didn't understand what his plan was, since he had already placed the bet, he couldn't turn back.
"I will bring you the Zhao family's Sky Survey Order tomorrow."
When Lu Chengfeng heard this, even though his head was splitting, he still couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, okay, Brother Zhao is really an understanding person, he knows exactly what I want."
Zhao Tianyou shook his head. "The Sky Patrol Order was owned by the elders when the alliance was first established. If outsiders attack it, the Sky Patrol will surely attack in unison."
"The Li family also possesses the Sky Patrol Order. If an outsider like you were to take action against the Li family, it would inevitably lead to the intervention of the Sky Patrol Department. Only by obtaining the Sky Patrol Order from the Zhao family can you be justified and prevent the Sky Patrol Department from directly intervening."
"After all, this is an internal dispute within the Sky Patrol Division!"
A hint of coldness flashed across his face. "After all, my Zhao family was wiped out in this way. The Sky Patrol used internal disputes as an excuse to not take drastic action against the murderers."
"According to the rules, only direct bloodlines can control the Sky Survey Order. You went to so much trouble to sign a marriage certificate with her, but I'm afraid it won't have much effect. Those people won't approve of it!"
Zhao Tianyou only thought that Lu Chengfeng wanted to use the Sky Survey Order in this way, but he never expected that Lu Chengfeng had no intention of doing so at all.
"Hahaha, Youdu is standing behind me. They have to recognize me whether they want to or not. Otherwise, we will completely fall out." Lu Chengfeng said nonchalantly.
"Well, it's getting late today, Brother Tianyou should leave quickly. Also, remember to decorate the wedding room for me, I will be able to use it when the time comes."
Seeing that he was so persistent, Zhao Tianyou was speechless and stopped trying to persuade him. He just said to Zhao Qianshi, "Grandma, please."
Zhao Qianshi stood up with an indifferent expression. Just as she was about to leave, she heard Lu Chengfeng say in a light tone: "Take the gift I gave you."
Zhao Qian already knew what was in the box. She couldn't help but tremble. She gritted her teeth and swallowed all her anger.
She picked up the bloody red box with both hands and walked out of the door tremblingly step by step.
Zhao Tianyou opened the door for her, and the two followers outside the door had received Lu Chengfeng's instructions and followed them.
After everyone left and the door was closed, Lu Chengfeng could no longer hold on and fell to the ground. His face turned extremely pale, but there was a point of golden light flowing from under his skin between his eyebrows, which looked extremely magical.
He sat cross-legged, practicing his internal energy and focusing all his mind on the golden light.
In an instant, a beam of fire rushed up, drowning all his thoughts.
