After stopping and stopping for several days, Qi Qi came to an unknown small town, stayed in an inn, and asked around for information about extremely positive objects. It's a pity that there is nothing to gain. Although extremely positive substances have little effect on martial artists, they themselves are also extremely rare, and few people will inquire about this news, so it is normal for Qi Qi not to ask anything.

He was now mainly focused on finding an extremely positive environment and an extremely positive elixir, and he didn't dare to have any more illusions about the red cow blood on the Taishan Mountain. Because the red-blooded cow is too powerful, and the environment of the mountain is complicated, if he only encounters one red-blooded cow, he is sure to deal with it, but he is afraid that there will be more than one. Moreover, in a place like Taishan, where the vitality is strong, there are often many warriors from the rivers and lakes, and if he is calculated, he may die there.

If you can't ask here, I'll go to the next place. Although this city is small, there are many inns, ask more, maybe there will be a harvest.

However, after looking for eight inns on East, West, South and North Streets, there is still no gain. At the moment, there was only the last inn on North Street called "Good Luck Lai", so after thinking about it, I walked in.

When you are still a few feet away from this good luck inn, you can hear the hustle and bustle coming from inside. Business at this inn is surprisingly good. Looking at the crowd on this North Street, it is not denser than the other three streets, it seems that the owner of this good luck inn is well run.

After entering the door, the scene in the inn was as he expected, full of seats, brightly lit and noisy.

He still found a place to order a plate of braised pork, and then began to sound, after all, if you don't buy something, you can't help but ask questions in other people's stores.

asked back and forth, and the whole inn was also asked by him, but the result was still the same, and there was no gain.

Just as he turned to leave, a voice stopped him.

"That little guy in white!"

The voice is soft and feminine, with a slight hint of bone-chilling.

Qi Qi stopped uncertainly, turned around, but saw no one, only guests sitting at the table eating.

He was about to turn around, when the voice sounded again, "Brother in white, here!"

Qi Qi looked at it, and it turned out to be the shopkeeper's proprietress .

Although I don't know why the proprietress called him, because the money for the braised pork was also given, I still walked over.

"Boss, did you call me?

"I see that you have been inquiring about extremely positive things, I have some news here that may be helpful to you, I wonder if you are interested?" said the proprietress with a smile.

"Oh? ”

"I'm conditional. The proprietress smiled faintly.

Qi Qi couldn't help laughing, "You can't be sure that your news will help me, so I started to put forward conditions, maybe it's a little unreasonable, right?"

The proprietress smiled lightly, "You're right, but you can leave, I won't force you to stay." ”

Qi Qi thought about it, let's listen to her conditions, and said, "Please speak." ”

The proprietress brushed a strand of hair hanging down between her sideburns and said, "Business has been booming in the store lately, but I can't find a job, if you can stay and help me for a few days, I will tell you everything I know." ”

Qi Qi said with a smile, "There are so many people in the city, your business here is so good, and there must be a lot of oil and water working here, how can you not recruit people?"

The proprietress climbed on the edge of the table with her hands, leaned forward and leaned towards Qi Qi, sighed on Qi Qi's face, and said with a smile, "I said that if I can't recruit you, I won't be able to recruit you, will you agree?"

Qi Qi took a step back quietly, "I'll help you recruit someone, and then you tell me, okay?"

The proprietress retracted, "I don't want it, I just want you." ”

At this point, Qi Qi knows what the boss lady is planning, but he is not worried about what the boss lady will do to him, first, she is not like a person with bad intentions, and second, her martial arts skills will not be higher than him, although he has to stay for her to work for a few days, but there is no loss after all, and he is not in a hurry, maybe the boss lady really knows something, and it is okay to try.

"Yes, I promise you, but I also hope that you will keep your promise and tell me everything you know in the future. ”

The proprietress smiled, "No problem, deal!"

"Then you can arrange it, can you start now?"

"No, you just sit here, you don't have to do the work, they can be busy. ”

Qi Qi paused, "I'd better do something, I don't want to do anything and sit still." ”

As soon as he turned around, he was pulled along.

The proprietress leaned out of the counter with both hands and grabbed Qi Qi's arm, and said angrily, "If I want you to sit, you can sit, I am the proprietress of the proprietress ." ”

Qi Qi was a little helpless, and at this time, many people around him looked at him, with obvious hostility in their eyes. He didn't know where he had offended these people, so he thought about it and finally walked into the counter and sat down on a chair next to the proprietress .

The hostess was smiling.

At this time, a big man with bare arms stood up from the wine table, walked over, looked at the proprietress and said, "Shuang'er, who is he?!"

The proprietress smiled, "He's the second kid I recruited." ”

"I don't see it, right? He's your concubine, right?" Dahan looked at Qi Qi, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.

The proprietress frowned slightly, "Wang Er, you don't want to eat here, do you?

The movement here attracts the attention of the surrounding guests.

"Uh..." the corners of the big man's mouth twitched, he didn't know why he made the beauty angry, and hurriedly smiled, "I said the wrong thing, I said the wrong thing, don't take it to heart." ”

As he spoke, he slapped himself in the mouth a few times.

The proprietress looked a little better, "Go away, go back to your place!"

The big man nodded, "Hey, hey, good!" and retreated to his place.

The proprietress looked at Qi Qi next to her, "You don't seem to be afraid of him much?"

Qi Qi looked at her, "Why are you afraid of him?"

The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled, "Giggles, backbone, I like it." ”

Qi Qi's face was expressionless and he withdrew his gaze.

The proprietress herself explained, "The reason why my business here is so hot is not because the food and wine here are delicious, but because these lustful people covet my beauty." That second king is one of thousands of people who pursue me. My husband died young, just me and my daughter. There were many right and wrong in front of the widow's door, and these people flocked to them. ”

Qi Qi said lightly, "It's not easy." ”

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, and then smiled faintly, "You really cherish words like gold." ”

The two were silent for a while, and then the proprietress said, "Don't you want to ask me why I have to keep you?"

Qi Qi said lightly, "I know if I don't ask." ”

The proprietress said angrily, "It's really hard to talk to you!"

Qi Qi was silent.

The customers in the store gradually dispersed, and the people who came here to eat were basically all men, and when they came to the counter to settle the bill, they always had to make a few meat jokes with the proprietress when they came to the counter, and the proprietress was not shocked, laughing and gagging with these people, and she did not shy away from those men and women, and blurted out like talking about common things, which made these men laugh. However, she has always maintained the Chu River Han Realm completely, and she will never cross it, and no one else will want to come in.

After all the guests dispersed, the proprietress cleaned up the mess with Xiao Er in the store, and Qi Qi also joined in, this time, the proprietress did not refuse again.

After all this was cleaned up, several shopkeepers went back to their respective homes, and Qi Qi was about to go back, but was stopped by the proprietress and said, "What else are you leaving?" ”

"How does this work?"

The proprietress smiled slyly, "What's the matter, I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat you?"

Qi Qi ignored her, broke free from her hand and was about to leave.

The proprietress clasped her hands to her chest and said with interest, "If you step out of this room, you won't have anything you want from me, think about it yourself." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qi Qi really stopped when he pushed the door, paused, and turned around, "Okay, I'll just live here." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange a room for you. ”

Qi Qi followed the proprietress up to the second floor, and when passing by the corridor, he vaguely heard a girl's voice.

The proprietress pushed open one of the doors, and Qi Qi saw a girl in the room lying on the table reading.

The proprietress sat next to the girl and said softly, "Yue'er, are you sleepy? If you are sleepy, go to sleep first, and read it tomorrow." ”

The girl shook her head, "Mother, I'm not sleepy." Looking at Qi Qi, "This... Big brother, who is it?"

The proprietress blushed slightly, "He is the second child who was recruited by his mother to help in the store." ”

The girl smiled lightly, "Didn't the little two go back to their own house to sleep?

The proprietress glared at the girl, "You girl, what are you guessing nonsense?!"

The girl smiled, "Mother, I didn't say anything..."

The proprietress got up, stopped talking to the girl, dropped the sentence "Go to bed early", and led Qi Qi away.

In the corridor, Qi Qi asked, "That girl is your daughter, right?"

The proprietress nodded, "Well, her name is Liu Yue'er, and my name is Liu Shuang'er." After her father died, she took my last name. ”

Qi Qi also said, "My name is Qi Qi. ”

The proprietress smiled lightly and pushed open a door at the end of the hallway, "This is where you live tonight, it's very clean, you can rest assured." ”

Qi Qi nodded, "Thank you." ”

"I'm going to take a shower first, and if you want to wash, wait until I'm done washing. If you're bored, it's okay to go and chat with Yue'er, her girl is very clever and doesn't recognize life. ”

"Hmm. ”

After Liu Shuang'er went downstairs, Qi Qi entered his room, and as soon as he poured himself a cup of tea, someone knocked on the door, "Brother, can I come in?"

Qi Qi walked to open the door, but he didn't come to the door, but the person outside pushed it open by himself, it was Liu Yue'er.

Liu Yue'er sat down on the chair next to the tea table and said with a smile, "Brother, your name is Qi Qi, right?"

Qi Qi nodded and sat down opposite the girl.

Liu Yue'er leaned on the table and asked, "Where did my brother come from?"

"Wuhuan City. ”

"Wuhuan City... Far from here?"

"Wuhuan City is on the southeastern border of Sino-Korean Province, and we are here to the north of the southeastern border. ”

Liu Yue'er looked at Qi Qi's face for a moment and said with a smile, "Brother Qi Qi, do you know why my mother left you behind?"

Qi Qi took a sip of tea, "I know, but I'm not sure." ”

"Tell me, what do you know?"

Qi Qi said lightly, "I don't want to say it." ”

"You don't want to say that my mother kept you because she liked you. ”

Qi Qi nodded and didn't say anything, because this was not different from the guess in his heart. While it's a bit narcissistic to guess, there's nothing else possible. But now it's a little hard to believe that it's confirmed by the girl herself.

"I know my mother best, and she likes you like this. As long as it is something she likes, she will boldly pursue it, so she took the initiative to keep you. ”

Qi Qi looked at Liu Yue'er, "I won't like her." ”

Liu Yue'er smiled, "Don't be in such a hurry to make a conclusion, people will change, if you don't like it now, you may not like it in the future." And my mother's greatest ability is to make everything impossible possible. ”

Qi Qi said lightly, "In my case, your mother's skills won't work." ”

"Hmph, it's boring to talk to you, I'm leaving!"

After the girl left, Qi Qi waited for Liu Shuang'er who had finished taking a bath.

"Qi Qi, I'm done washing, do you want to go down and wash one too?" After bathing, Liu Shuang'er was wearing a red tulle, the scenery inside was looming, the snow neck and melon seed face were like hibiscus out of water, with a healthy ruddyness, and the straight hair was still a little wet.

"Hmm. Qi Qi walked past Liu Shuang'er, his face unchanged.

Looking at Qi Qi's departing back, a trace of resentment flashed in Liu Shuang'er's eyes, her small mouth pursed, and she snorted twice.

In the bath room, the steam is thick and filled with just the right amount of warmth to open the pores, and there are only a few oil lamps, which emit the glow of a fire.

Qi Qi soaked himself in the bathtub, and the whole person was shrouded in the "misty illusion" composed of the fire and the steam.

Bumper.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

Qi Qi didn't have to think about it to know who it was.

"Qi Qi, it's me. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I brought you a change of clothes, and I'm in. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Qi Qi to respond, he pushed the door and entered. In the mist, Qi Qi could only vaguely see a graceful shadow swaying towards him, like a water snake swinging.

"You just put it outside, you don't have to come in. ”

"How can this be done, the hospitality is good, and you have to take care of yourself. ”

Liu Shuang'er said this, Qi Qi felt her walk to his side, and vaguely saw her throwing a few clothes on the hanger next to the bathtub.

"Then I'm leaving. ”

"Well, thank you. ”

Crash!

When the words fell, Qi Qi suddenly became excited, and a plain white hand suddenly stretched out from the fog and brushed his chest, bringing a slight itchy feeling.

"You-"

"Hee-hee," Liu Shuang'er's silver bell-like laughter sounded next to her, and faintly, she gradually moved away.

Qi Qi felt a slight headache.

Boys are out alone, so protect themselves.
