Chapter 277 Moon Drink
The man said nothing, looking lazy and bored as he watched the fight below.
Ye Lan said, "Qin Xin has always been cunning. I didn't expect that the young master of the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion would also be this way."
Canghai said: "I didn't expect that the young master of the Qingyuan Marquis's Mansion is so skilled."
The man said quietly, "The Qingyuan Marquisate has been dormant for many years, but that doesn't mean they have to accept their fate. They will naturally not raise their descendants to be useless."
As they were talking, Zhao Baokun and Qin Xin had already fought for several rounds.
In the end, the fight ended when Zhao Baokun placed his sword across Qin Xin's neck.
Qin Xin was silent for a while, then responded, "I lost."
Next, Zhao Baopeng and Jianpo fought each other. Perhaps it was luck, as their styles were somewhat similar.
However, Jianpo is more straightforward and frank, with a fierce and aggressive aura, while Zhao Baokun is more calm and steady.
Unlike Zhao Baokun who frequently tested the opponent to force him to reveal his flaws, he was more like a dormant beast. If he didn't attack, it would be fine, but if he did, it would kill.
Although his moves seemed calm and steady, he always took unconventional approaches and made surprising moves.
Although Shen Shuyi was not an expert in these matters, he was not unable to understand the situation. Seeing that the outcome was not in doubt, he asked Zhao Baokun who was standing beside him, "What do you think?"
Zhao Baokun whispered, "She is a rare master. It is hard to find a woman of this age."
He and his brother had been bullied repeatedly over the years, so they both held back their anger and practiced hard. When it came to martial arts, it could be said that they had never slacked off at all.
Many of these moves were passed down from his ancestors, and day after day, he endured a lot of hardships.
But now, this woman was able to hold out in his hands for so long, and even cut his cuffs, which showed that she was already an expert.
Shen Shuyi said softly: "Bao Kun, you always leave room for maneuver when you act. You think too much. If you are in danger one day, it will cost you your life."
Hearing this, Zhao Baokun fell silent.
Shen Shuyi looked at the boy who was much taller than him and said again: "Whether it is on the battlefield or in the court, sometimes one wrong step means death."
After a while, Zhao Baokun forced out a smile and said, "Cousin, I understand."
Shen Shuyi didn't say anything more. Perhaps it was because Zhao Baokun died tragically in his previous life, but Zhao Baopeng survived, so she couldn't help but think more about his instructions.
They all need to live well in this life.
She wants it, her cousin wants it, and her brother wants it too.
As they were talking, the result had already been seen on the stage. Both of them were fighting with swords, but at the very end, Jianpo's sword broke.
Jianpo staggered back two steps, his knuckles numb from the shock, and he stared at Zhao Baopeng in front of him in silence.
"Thank you." The young man was still silent, but he was less shy than when facing Shen Shuyi.
In the elegant pavilion upstairs, Ye Lan said with great interest: "If Jian Po didn't hide his shortcomings, he might have a chance of winning."
Canghai said in a deep voice: "Zhao Baokun has not used his full strength either."
In this case, it is difficult to estimate.
The shopkeeper saw that the two young masters brought by Shen Shuyi were extraordinary, and he said in embarrassment: "Miss Shen, the two young masters are outstanding. If you want to find someone who can beat them, it will be difficult for me..."
Shen Shuyi curled her lips: "No need, they are good enough."
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."
Qin Xin and Jian Po also breathed a sigh of relief and forced themselves not to look up towards the upper floor.
Shen Shuyi looked directly at the two of them and said in a gentle voice, "I'm easy to talk to. I only have two requirements: loyalty and obedience."
Qin Xin and Jian Po were stunned for a moment, and inexplicably felt a sense of authority from Shen Shuyi. Although her words were gentle, they made people feel a chill involuntarily.
"Yes."
"If you two have any requests, please feel free to ask." Shen Shuyi spoke again.
The two looked at each other, and finally neither of them said anything.
"In that case, let's sign the contract to sell ourselves." Shen Shuyi said again.
Hearing this, Jianpo's eyes twitched and he glanced at Qinxin calmly. The master said that I would be a slave to Miss Shen Er for a period of time, but he didn't say that I had to sign a contract to sell myself!
At this moment, Jinzhu had already taken out two indentures.
When Jianpo saw it, he almost fainted.
Death Contract...
No, but no one told her to change her master. Why did Second Miss Shen do that?
Jianpo frowned, somewhat resistant.
Qin Xin was also a little confused, but then she changed her mind and thought about what her master had said before, so she had to bite the bullet and sign it.
Never mind her. They can’t stay with Miss Shen Er anyway, and the master won’t keep them here either.
If the master wants them back in the future, he won't be stumped by a small indenture.
Thinking of this, Qin Xin signed it decisively and then put her fingerprints on it.
Um...wait...
The price of ten thousand taels?
Does this mean that Miss Shen spent ten thousand taels to buy her?
Qin Xin couldn't tell what she felt for a moment, but she thought, it was better than being sold for ten taels of silver in the first place.
Jianpo was a little dumbfounded when he saw how neatly she signed.
Jianpo: Are you really going to sign? You are betraying your master!
Qin Xin turned her face away and ignored her. Jian Po gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, the master must have his reasons for making such arrangements."
Thinking of this, Jianpo signed the contract without hesitation.
The shopkeeper was so happy to see that a deal had been concluded that he immediately said, "Congratulations, Miss Shen. From now on, these two people are yours."
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
After Shen Shuyi thanked them, he looked at the two of them and said, "You two are both highly skilled in martial arts. I would be worried if I rashly kept you by my side. Since you have been secret guards, you will not reject this."
After saying that, two dark red pills appeared in the girl's palm.
Qin Xin and Jian Po swallowed their saliva, feeling that this mission was really damn difficult.
The master didn't say that I not only had to sign a death contract, but also had to take poison!!!
"What? Are you scared? Didn't your master use the same method in the past?" Jinzhu said with a frown.
Qin Xin and Jian Po were silent for a moment, then each picked up a pill and put it into their mouths neatly.
Shen Shuyi raised his eyebrows and continued, "This is a moonlit night drink. Every night when the moon is full, the poison will take effect and cause severe pain all over the body. If you force yourself to hold on, your tendons and veins will break and you will bleed to death."
Qin Xin and Jian Po both remained silent, but looked at Shen Shuyi with a gaze that was a little colder than before.
"Before the full moon, come to me for medicine, and you won't have to suffer this bone-eating pain."
"Thank you, Miss." They both said in unison.
Shen Shuyi smiled and said, "No need to thank me. The Shen family has many rules, and you two are familiar with each other, so I plan to keep only one."
The two were stunned again, and Qin Xin was the first to ask, "Miss, what do you mean by this?"
Shen Shuyi's eyes were cold, and her brows were filled with indifference. She glanced at the two of them coldly and said, "Whoever kills the other first can get the antidote."
