Chapter 423: Mr. Li, what do you think?
Chapter 423: Mr. Li, what do you think?
The few of them chatted for a while, and Master Wu Liao thought of his nephew Pu Shen, so he said:
"Donor Li, I have an unwelcome request. Junior Brother Pu Shen has always had a wish to compete with 'Xiang Yi Tai Jian'. I hope Donor Li will fulfill it."
Li Lianhua coughed and put her hands on her lips. "Li Xiangyi has been dead for ten years. I'm afraid Master Pu Shen's wish will be difficult to fulfill."
Master Wu Liao glanced at him and said nothing.
Seeing this, Li Lianhua was immediately filled with righteous indignation and said, "This Li Xiangyi is really something. Why didn't he write down the sword manual when he was alive? If he had written it down, there wouldn't be people remembering it now."
Then, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Guo Guo and said to him, "Well, Mr. Li, the monk wants you to compete with Master Pu Shen, what do you think?"
Su Ci paused while drinking tea and looked at Li Lianhua speechlessly.
Even Master Wu Liao was caught by his shamelessness.
Guoguo slowly put down the teacup in her hand, raised her head and grinned at Li Lianhua, "How can I watch? Of course I'll just sit and watch. Mr. Li, don't be careless, I'm counting on you."
Li Lianhua said as a matter of course: "Guoguo, there is a saying that goes 'When there is something going on, the disciple should do the hard work'. You are not only my son, but also the successor of the 'Xiang Yi Tai Sword', so it is time for you to fulfill your filial piety."
Guo Guo said innocently: "But, I am not even six years old yet, I haven't even held the sword of the young master, how can I compete with others?"
Li Lianhua turned to Master Wu Liao and said apologetically, "Monk, you also heard that this 'Donor Li' is not even six years old and cannot compete with Master Pu Shen.
Otherwise, he has waited ten years, so he can wait another ten years. After ten years, this 'Donor Li' will be old enough to accept the invitation to compete."
Master Wu Liao shook his head helplessly, "Li Lianhua, your face is getting thicker and thicker. I can't compare with you."
Li Lianhua picked up the teacup and started drinking, ignoring Master Wu Liao's words.
He looked up at the sky, stood up, and stretched, "Life, ah, life, it's time to eat again. Monk, we will leave first. We won't disturb your meditation."
After saying that, he pulled Su Ci away, as if there were debt collectors chasing him.
Guoguo stamped her feet in anger, bowed to Master Wu Liao, and quickly chased after him with the Posing Step.
Master Wu Liao looked at the figures of the family of three walking away and shook his head with a smile.
……
Pingma Town is very lively at night.
Guoguo pulled Su Ci and Li Lianhua and ran excitedly to the street to visit the lantern festival.
The lights were on, and the streets were lined with all kinds of beautiful lanterns. People were coming and going on the streets, shoulder to shoulder, with happy smiles on their faces. The hawkers' calls were heard one after another, making the place very lively.
Guoguo held his parents tightly with his little hands, shaking his little head constantly and looking around, with two eyes not enough.
Li Lianhua opened her arms to protect the mother and son, preventing them from being pushed by the crowd.
Guoguo pointed to a riddle guessing stall and said to Li Lianhua, "Dad, let's go over there and take a look. That lotus lantern is so beautiful. I want it. Can you buy it for me?"
Su Ci and Li Lianhua looked in the direction Guo Guo was looking.
There are many kinds of lanterns displayed in the stalls, including lotus lanterns, revolving lanterns, pagoda lanterns, carp lanterns and so on.
The lanterns were well-made, and there were many men and women surrounding them. Some were deep in thought, some were pointing at the lanterns, and some were writing something in front of the stalls.
The lotus lantern that Guoguo pointed at was indeed beautiful, with gradient petals wrapped around the center of the flower. The boss had very skillful hands, and cleverly made the wick into a pistil, surrounding the yellow receptacle.
There are round lotus leaves supporting the blooming lotus, with a few buds about to bloom sticking out from the side.
The entire lotus lantern is made to be extremely lifelike, as if it had just been picked from the lotus pond.
Arriving at the stall, Guo Guo couldn't wait to ask the boss, "Uncle, how can I get that lotus lantern?"
The boss said with a smile: "Young Master, you have good taste. This lotus lantern is the most popular lantern in my stall. You can only get this lantern if you guess the riddle correctly. It is not for sale."
Guo Guo raised his head and looked at Li Lianhua, saying flatteringly: "Dad, my most powerful dad, the most powerful dad in the world.
You are well-read and talented, you can definitely figure out this little riddle easily, right? Can you help me win it back? I like you the most."
If an adult said this and had this expression, he would definitely be met with contempt, but he was just a child who was only as tall as his waist, and the people around him just found it funny.
Therefore, everyone responded with a kind smile.
Li Lianhua raised her eyebrows and tapped her forehead with her hand. "Oh, I remember someone saying that I am old and weak and cannot compare to him. He also said that a hero does not talk about his past achievements. Did I remember it wrongly?"
Guo Guo clenched his fists and said indignantly, "Who is it? Which bad guy slandered my father like this? I will help you teach him a lesson.
My father is obviously very handsome and charming, and he can charm a bunch of young ladies and brothers whenever he goes out. How can he be old?"
