Chapter 7 The Yu Mansion

　　The white-robed teenager was quite talkative, and along the way, he gave Liu Leer some interesting anecdotes about the city, but the young girl was a bit distracted by this, and only casually dealt with a few sentences. 　　Several people passed through several streets and soon arrived at the center of Mingyuan City. 　　Here seems a little quiet, the road is clean, there are no more stores on both sides, a wide mansion compound scale by scale, obviously is the city's worldly families where the rich and powerful live. 　　Walking forward for a while, several people came to a vermillion mansion outside. 　　And other buildings in the city is different, this mansion covers an extremely wide area, about two feet high vermillion red gate looks magnificent, the gate court towering two ten feet high stone lions, the gate is covered with shiny copper nails, in the sunlight shining bright. 　　On both sides of the gate, there is a guard wearing bright armor, and before the guards wearing the same, but is holding a spear, standing solemnly. 　　Everything here, all highlights the owner's position of power here. 　　There was a huge gilt plaque hanging on the main door, on which was written "Yu Mansion" in large gilt letters. 　　Liu Shi raised his head to look at the Yu Mansion, but quickly withdrew his gaze. 　　Liu Le'er looked at the mansion in front of her in surprise, her heart slightly apprehensive. 　　She had never seen such a large mansion before, and from the situation of this gate, the Yu Mansion's status in Mingyuan City must be extremely high, and she was afraid that it was greatly related to the Feng Guo court. 　　"Sister Liu, what's wrong?" The white-robed teenager seemed to have seen something and asked in a warm voice. 　　"The Yu Mansion is really big, and there are so many guards, it's not an ordinary family, right?" Liu Le'er said with a forced smile. 　　"Sister Liu is really smart, my father is none other than the prime minister of Feng Guo, that's why there are some guards and escorts in the mansion, otherwise how could one afford to hire a true immortal master to reside there." Yu Qi returned with disbelief. 　　Liu Le'er heard this and couldn't help but stare blankly. 　　That Confucian-robed youth was filled with arrogance when he saw this. 　　"Seventh Prince, Second Prince!" Seeing a few people walking towards them, the two guards at the entrance hurriedly greeted them, bowing and saluting. 　　Yu Qi gave a slight nod to the two and led the two of them, Liu Le'er, into the gate. 　　"Seventh brother, you insisted on bringing two outsiders to the mansion, be careful of father being furious when he finds out, don't blame me for not reminding you." Entering the Yu Mansion, the Confucian-robed youth snorted coldly and whisked his sleeve away. 　　"Ignore him, the two of you please follow me." Yu Qi smiled sweetly and led Liu Le'er and Liu Shi in another direction within the mansion. 　　The Yu Mansion was extremely large, with pavilions and gardens and corridors abounding. 　　The ground is also paved with white jade, green jade and other top grade jade, smooth as a mirror, hard as iron, showing the luxury of the mansion. 　　Yu Qi seems to be very majestic in the Yu Mansion, along the way, the servants encountered have saluted, some even directly kneel on one knee. 　　Seeing this, Liu Le'er glanced at Yu Qi's back, her two bright eyes darting around, not knowing what she was thinking. 　　The two of them, she and Liu Shi, followed behind Yu Qi, and naturally attracted the attention of quite a few people, especially Liu Shi's abnormality, which was even more striking, but these people seemed to be regaled by Yu Qi's majesty, and didn't dare to look at them more. 　　Not long after, the three of them came to a long corridor, and a tall maid wearing a long green dress walked over to meet them. 　　"Young master, you're back." When the green-skirted maid saw Yu Qi, she immediately revealed a joyful smile and trotted over. 　　"Little Dance, there are honored guests here, don't be unruly." Yu Qi reprimanded in a deep voice. 　　The green-skirted maid Xiao Dance spat out her tongue and was not afraid, very different from those servants earlier. 　　Yu Qi helplessly glared at the green-skirted maid, then said, "Xiao Dance, you've come at the right time, these two are the honored guests I've invited, Sister Liu Le'er and Brother Liu Shi, go to the west wing and pack out a courtyard for them to rest." 　　Little Dance only noticed the duo behind Yu Qi at this moment, Liu Shi's unusual woodenness made her a little surprised, but after her eyes landed on Liu Le'er who was on the side, then her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with a smile, "Ya, what a pretty little sister girl!" 　　"Sister Liu is my honored guest, you shall not be rude! Both of you, Little Dance is my personal maid, her words are abrupt, please don't be offended." Yu Qi chided and turned to Liu Le'er and Liu Shi again with an apologetic smile. 　　"Got it." Xiao Dance said so under her breath, but she took advantage of Yu Qi turning around without noticing and made a face towards Le Er. 　　Liu Le'er was amused by it and couldn't help but snort a laugh, but hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, but her original nervousness loosened a little. 　　"By the way, I've been outside for the past few days, the mansion ......," Yu Qi eyes toward the surrounding, close to the small dance, whispered privately. 　　The two of them were leaning their bodies together, their demeanor was intimate, and Xiao Dai didn't seem to avoid it. 　　Liu Le'er eyes saw this scene, skimmed her mouth, the white-robed teenager just surfaced some good feelings suddenly greatly reduced. 　　After the two whispered a few words, Xiao Dance nodded and turned around to quickly walk away. 　　"Both of you, please." Yu Qi said and continued to walk forward. 　　A few moments later, the three of them arrived at a small courtyard, where that Little Dance was greeting them. 　　Although it was a small courtyard, but the area was not small, paved with cobblestones to form a path, a green pine on the left, and a clump of turquoise cultivated bamboo on the right. 　　Breeze blowing through, pine tree bamboo leaves issued a clattering sound, quiet and incomparable. 　　Inside the house should be furnished although simple, but the tables and chairs and benches are extremely exquisite workmanship. 　　The tables and chairs were clean and spotless, obviously just cleaned up. 　　"The two of you also look a bit tired, first take a rest here first, later I will host a separate banquet for your siblings." The white-robed teenager turned to look at Liu Le'er and smiled. 　　"Hospitality is not necessary. I only want to know when I can ask that immortal master to treat my brother?" Liu Le'er gazed around. 　　"Since the two of you don't like entertaining, I'll have Little Dance bring the dinner a little later. As for the Immortal Master, I'm afraid we'll have to wait until tomorrow to invite each other." Yu Qi slightly pondered and said so. 　　"Alright." Liu Le'er was a little disappointed. 　　"By the way, if you two have any other needs, feel free to order Little Dance. Then both of you have a good rest, I'll take my leave first." Yu Qi said and glanced at Liu Shi again. 　　Liu Le'er nodded, her expression a little distracted. 　　...... 　　"Young Master, what are they? Looking at their dress, they are just ordinary people, why are they so polite to them." Outside the small courtyard, Little Dance asked with some curiosity. 　　"What do you little ninny know? Today, my second brother and I's carriage was frightened, and it was that Liu Shi who single-handedly subdued the Green Wind Horse and stopped the carriage." Yu Qi frivolously pinched Xiao Dance's white chin and laughed lightly. 　　"Green Wind Horse! Single handed! That Liu Shi ...... is so strong!" Xiao Dance was shocked at his words. 　　"You know, this kind of foreigner with divine power, if I can take it in, it will be of great use to me in the future. Moreover, Le'er, this girl is a little older, but also absolutely is a great beauty, how can I let her go out to suffer, naturally, I also want to be included in the mansion. You order down, to treat them well, do not be slow?" The white-robed teenager walked towards the outside with a smile on his face, commanding as he walked. 　　"Yes." Little Dance didn't know what came to her mind, and with a blushing face, she hurriedly agreed. 　　...... 　　Small courtyard, inside the house. 　　Liu Le'er had been walking for a day today, and had just gone through a storm, so she was a bit tired, and pulled Liu Shi into the bedroom to rest up slightly. 　　Although they are different between men and women, but over the years the two of them have been eating and living together in the wilderness, Liu Le'er didn't feel that there was anything wrong. 　　When it was dark, Little Dance delivered a sumptuous dinner. 　　Looking at a table full of fragrant meals, Liu Le'er couldn't help but gulp straight. 　　She had never eaten such sumptuous food before, and although the unfamiliar environment of being in the Chancellor's residence made her a bit distracted, she still couldn't help but have a feast. 　　On the contrary, it was Liu Shi, who did not have any reaction to these delicacies. 　　The night grew thicker, and a full moon slowly rose from the sky. 　　Liu Le'er lay on the bed, tossing and turning for a long time without falling asleep, her mind filled with the matter of tomorrow's doctor's appointment. 　　"Brother Stone, do you think that immortal master can cure you?" Liu Le'er moved her body a few points toward the bed and said softly. 　　Liu Shi did not lie down and sat on his knees with his eyes closed beside the bed. 　　Over the years, he had done this every night and had never laid down to sleep. 　　Liu Shi's face was expressionless and he did not open his eyes, as if he had not heard the young girl's words. 　　"Brother Stone, don't worry, if the Immortal Masters here can't cure you, we'll go somewhere else, there's definitely someone who can cure you." Liu Le'er, however, took it for granted and whispered two more sentences before revealing a reassuring smile, slowly closing her eyes and entering a dream. 　　Liu Shi was motionless, as if a statue in the darkness. 　　After an unknown amount of time, the tall youth suddenly opened his eyes, glanced in a certain direction towards the Yu Mansion, and subconsciously raised his hand to stroke a certain dark green ornament at the bottom of his neck. 　　...... 　　At the same time, the tall young man looked in the direction of a certain underground chamber of the Yu Mansion. 　　The four walls of the chamber were engraved with dark red runes that converged from all parts of the walls to the center. 　　In the center of the secret room was a black furnace, and at the bottom of the furnace was a fire pool, burning with a blazing flame. 　　The furnace was emitting black light, and the top cover was gently trembling, as if it would fly up at any time. 　　An old man stood beside the furnace, nervously watching it. 　　This person wears a lotus crown, wearing gray and white robe, deep eye sockets, cheeks thin, a wisp of goat's beard hangs under the jaw, beard and hair are snow-white, it looks like it should be more than the age of old, but also some of the bones of the Immortal style. 　　At this moment, a burst of muffled sounds from the furnace, followed by a burnt odor came out. 　　The old Taoist's face changed drastically, waving his hand and striking a magic spell to extinguish the furnace fire, then with a wave of his hand, the lid of the furnace flew up. 　　Ignoring the boiling hotness of the Dan furnace, his hand directly reached in, and his face immediately became gloomy as he pulled out a handful of blackish powder. 　　A strong medicinal fragrance, mixed with a burnt odor emanated from the powder. 　　When the old man saw this, his face turned blue and he jumped to his feet in anger and cursed.
