Chapter 302 Shen Fangting

Upon hearing his introduction, the woman let out a giggle.

She shook her head and said, "You're lying, I'm not calling you Brother Mu, I'll just call you Gongzi."

"Suit yourself, how did you get in here, where's Mother?"

"Mother? I think you've really mistaken me for someone else, I'm not the Star Moon you know."

Li Mu also felt that something was wrong, looking at her expression did not look like she was lying, could it be that she really was not Shen Xingyue.

Just that, there are still two people under the sky that look so much alike, no matter which way you look at it, this woman is Shen Xingyue, how come she just refuses to admit it.

Li Mu decided to be cautious, trying to get some useful information out of his opponent.

He could now be sure of one thing, even if she wasn't Shen Xingyue, she must be related to Shen Xingyue, otherwise, it was impossible for them to look so similar.

"Since the girl said so, I might have really recognized the wrong person, I hope you'll forgive me for my abruptness!" Li Mu clasped his fists and said politely.

The woman smiled sweetly and said to him, "It's okay, those who don't know are not to blame, come in and sit down, sir!"

Li Mu hesitated and didn't take a step, but asked politely, "Excuse me, is the inside of the cave the girl's boudoir?"

"Yes!"

"May I ask if the girl lives alone?"

The woman nodded.

Li Mu laughed, "Since it's a solitary boudoir, it's inconvenient for me to disturb, so I'll just beg the girl for a cup of water here!"

He talks a good game, but that's not what he thinks in his heart.

Ya is not dare to go in, afraid that inside is the coiled silk cave, this woman is a spider spirit, tricked him into the cave, eaten alive.

When our little brother Li is in trouble, he always puts caution in the first place, and can't go in until he knows what's going on.

The woman stood in awe, carefully sizing him up, and then smiled, "I didn't think that the gentleman was still a decent man?"

Li Mu does not like to hear, what is this called words, what is called or gentleman, is brother like a hooligan?

"I've always been a decent guy, the decent kind!"

The woman laughed daintily, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way... Have a seat, sir, I'll be right back!"

With that, he turned and entered the cave.

Li Mu probed his head and looked inside, shouting, "Where do you want me to sit, on the floor?"

"I'll be right there!" The woman responded from the cave.

In a short while, she carried out a small square table and two small bamboo stools from inside the cave and placed them near the entrance of the cave, inviting Li Mu, "Sir, please sit down!"

After watching Li Mu sit down, the woman turned into the cave again, took out a teapot and tea bowl, poured a cup of water for Li Mu, and served it with both hands.

"This is the fragrant tea I have just brewed shortly, please use it, my lord."

Reimu took the teacup with both hands, thanked him, and placed the cup on the table.

"Girl, I was chasing a small beast just now, and I saw it burrow into the cave, can you spot its trail?"

The woman smiled bashfully and lightly opened her lips, "The little beast you're talking about is Hope, right?"

"Hope, the little beast with the bow on its head?"

The woman nodded, "Yes, it's called Xiao Yuan, it's a spirit pet I raised, it ran back in panic just now, I asked it what happened and it couldn't tell me, that's why I went out to check, I didn't want to run into Gongzi!"

Saying this, the woman hid her mouth and laughed gently, obviously remembering Li Mu's dazed appearance just now.

Li Mu came to a realization and said awkwardly, "I see, it's my presumption, I thought it was an ownerless beast, but I didn't expect that it was the girl's spirit pet, if I had known about this, I definitely wouldn't have chased after it!"

The woman smiled gently, "It's okay, those who don't know are not to blame, and I also blame Xiao Yuan for being naughty and sneaking out to play when I wasn't paying attention, so I hope that you'll forgive me if I've offended you!"

Li Mu waved his hand, "There is no offense, that little beast is very cute, I like it very much, the girl must not chastise it."

The woman's cheeks reddened and she squirmed in agreement, and the atmosphere of the scene became subtle.

Reimu coughed lightly, trying to find a random topic.

"After half a day's chatter, I haven't asked for the girl's name?"

The woman said with a red face, "My name is Shen Fangting, Gongzi just call me Fangting."

Li Mu frowned slightly and asked stiffly, "Miss Fang Ting, have you always lived here?"

Shen Fangting laughed, "Yes, about three hundred years ago, I came here and found the scenery beautiful, so I stayed and have been living in this cave ever since."

Little Brother Li was so shocked that he fell straight off the stool, Shen Fangting was startled and hurriedly got up to help him.

How dare Li Mu let her help him, rolling and crawling to hide far away, tumbling from the ground and leaping up, copying a boulder at his feet and looking at her with a wary face.

Shen Fangting looked at him blankly, sighed, and said in a sullen tone, "Don't be afraid, this is not the real world, my father sealed me here, and even though three hundred years have passed, I'm not a demon."

"Who is your father?"

"Since you're here to find the treasure, you should know something about the past, my father was one of the treasure hiders, his name was Shen Tianju."

"Ancestral Grandmother is above, receive a bow from the youngest grandson!"

Li Mu nabbed his head and bowed, what is called to recognize the time as a handsome man, our little Li brother is this kind of person.

The one in front of me is a three hundred year old immortal monster, hurry up and kowtow and call your ancestors, you won't lose out is all.

Shen Fangting was furious and stomped her foot, scolding, "Who is your grandma, don't yell!"

"Ancestral Grandmother doesn't know, your direct descendant, Third Auntie, is my mother, so aren't you my paternal grandmother?"

"My third aunt is your mother?"

"Not your third aunt, my third aunt!"

"Isn't she your mother, and why is she the third aunt?"

"It's a bit confusing, let's re-strategize, before I recognized my mother, she was my third aunt, after I recognized my mother, she wasn't my third aunt."

"And who the hell is she?"

"I don't know who she is, no, she is my mother, a descendant of your descendants, so you are my ancestor."

"You lie!" Shen Fangting laughed coldly, "You don't even have the aura of the Shen Family's ancestral blood on your body, you're not a member of the Shen Family, so who are you to call me an ancestor?"

"It's a godmother, not a real mother!" Little Brother Li explained.

"So it's the borer's son, I declare that you will be expelled from the Shen family and she will not be allowed to recognize you as her son!"

Li Mu was dumbfounded, scratched his head and couldn't help but ask, "Why?"

"You're no good, I don't agree with you worshipping the Shin family!"

"What's wrong with me, I'm being a heavy heavy grandson and you're still picking?"

"It's just not good, you're scaring Hope!"

"When did I scare it?"

"You scared it naked!" Shen Fangting suddenly turned around and covered her mouth with her hand.

Little Reeko yelled, "Who let it peek at me in the shower, I haven't charged it yet!"

"Anyway, you're not allowed to call me an ancestor."

"What's it called?"

"Anything, as long as it's not an ancestor!"

What kind of reasoning is this, and the ones who don't love being an ancestor, can't figure it out.

Li Mu suddenly realized that this old immortal still considered himself a little girl even though he was trapped for three hundred years.

Women, I don't get it. If I don't call you grandpa, you won't get old?

"Then let's call Miss Fontaine, and let's talk singularly between us brothers!"

Shen Fangting turned around, her complexion returning to normal, causing Little Brother Li to have a good look of contempt.

"What is your third aunt's name?" Shen Fangting asked.

"My mother's name is Shen Ying, the previous generation of the Shen family!"

"Shen Ying?"

"Oh, after your father and the Lin family's ancestor got into trouble and angered the other families, your Shen family ran into seclusion on the mainland to avoid the trouble and changed the name from Shen to Shen."

"In that case, I should change my name to Shen Fangting, a name I like, from now on, I'll be called Shen Fangting."

"A name is just a title, it doesn't matter what it's called, Miss Fang Ting, why did the ancestors of the Lin and Shen families do that in the first place?"

Shen Fangting shook her head and said seriously, "It was three hundred years ago, the answer doesn't matter anymore, you only need to know that they didn't get greedy, the reason why they did that was that they had no choice but to suffer."

"Can't the truth be told?"

"I can't tell you, don't you ever ask that question again, I won't tell you."

"Okay, I won't ask again, but can you tell me the exit from here?"

"You want to leave?"

"Yeah, my friends are waiting for me outside, and I have to go treasure hunting with them to fulfill the promise made by the ancestors of the Lin and Shen families."

Shen Fangting smiled bitterly, "That promise I know, it's time to return the treasure to you."

Li Mu carefully asked, "Miss Fang Ting, do you know the secret to opening the treasure?"

Shen Fangting looked at him and suddenly giggled.

"That's the thing you want to ask the most, isn't it?"

Li Mu's old face reddened and he nodded his head greatly, admitting it dryly.

"Don't worry, since the time has come, I will naturally let you take the treasure, and I might as well tell you that I have the key right here, and I can give it to you."

Li Mu was overjoyed and hurriedly got up to thank him.

Shen Fangting pressed her hand, signaling him to sit down, and said unhurriedly, "However, you need to wait for a few more days, now that the hour has not yet arrived, even if it is given to you, you will not be able to open the treasure."

Li Mu froze, wait a few days? Don't be ridiculous, tomorrow night this place will sink to the bottom, still waiting for a few days, nonsense!

"What, you have a problem with that?"

"Old, I'm afraid God won't agree, Miss Fontaine, tomorrow night, the Mysterious Island will be swallowed by the sea, we don't have enough time to wait for a few days."

Shen Fangting giggled and said to him, "Idiot, time here is different from the outside world, even if you wait here for a few years, for the outside world, perhaps only a tea time has passed."

Reimu breathed a sigh of relief; he had no doubts about that line of reasoning.

In the beginning, when he soloed through the Dreamland Valley, he had encountered a similar situation, where he felt that a long time had passed, but in reality, only a few minutes had passed.

Shen Fangting advised, "Sir, drink some water!"

"Not thirsty!"

Still determined not to drink anything, Liamu continued to be on high alert.

Shen Fangting smiled faintly, not caring about this matter, but asked, "Your son's surname is Li, why were you able to come here?"

"Am I not qualified to be here?" Li Mu asked rhetorically.

"A non-Ten Great Families' descendant can't reach me at all, since you are able to appear in front of me, it means that you are a descendant of a certain family, and the Li surname is not your original surname."
