Chapter 31 A Coincidental Encounter with Ling Hu Chong
"Click~!"
A muffled sound of thunder came from the sky, and there was a thunder light hidden between the dark clouds, embellishing the originally black and oppressive sky.
After walking in the dense forest for more than half an hour, Zhao Hao stepped on a path, a little happy in his heart, thinking that he could go all the way to Fuzhou City.
Who said that God didn't seem to want to call him wishful, and after the lightning and thunder, a fine raindrop fell from the sky and spread on the earth.
Unable to avoid it, Zhao Hao had no choice but to sigh lightly, turned over and took out a special oil-paper umbrella from the backpack space, propped it on his head, and walked forward quickly along the tree-lined path under his feet.
After walking for about two miles, the rain between heaven and earth became more dense, like a curtain of rain, lapping on the road, and a burst of rain and mist evaporated.
However, at this time, Zhao Hao did not seem to be so anxious, for no other reason, with that extraordinary eyesight, through the rain curtain, he had already seen a simple small shop in front of his sight, which was set up alone on the side of the road, and a wine flag in front of the store was messy in the wind and rain, and it seemed that it was not too far from him.
"A tavern on the outskirts of Fuzhou City~ is built on this dense forest path, it can't be so coincidental, right?" Looking at the humble building in the smoke and rain, Zhao Hao had vaguely guessed something in his heart, so he quickened his pace and walked forward, and arrived at the door of this tavern after a while.
Pushing the door in, the furnishings of the store are simple, there are not many tables and chairs, and one of the tables is already sitting a man and a woman, looking like a father and daughter.
The man looked like he was about forty or fifty years old, dressed simply, and his mouth and chin were already covered with beards, but the strange thing was that the other party's face did not even have a trace of wrinkles, although there was some concealment between his eyebrows, but the heroic spirit could not be hidden, and there was no possibility of camouflage in Zhao Hao's eyes.
And the woman's dress is also relatively ordinary, dressed in coarse linen, about fifteen or sixteen years old, a pockmark with half of her originally beautiful face, which looks a little ugly at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that this woman's figure is still very good~
Seeing someone pushing the door in, the man and the woman immediately raised their eyes and looked over, and when they saw Zhao Hao's chivalrous dress, the two of them were shocked in unison, and then saw that the other party's eyes also looked at their side, and quickly returned with a smile, turned their heads as if nothing happened, lowered their heads and continued to eat and drink.
At this glance alone, Zhao Hao can basically confirm the identities of the two of them, they must be the protagonists of this smiling and proud world of rivers and lakes, Ling Hu Chong, the eldest disciple of the Huashan faction, and his little junior sister, the daughter of Yue Buqun, the head of Huashan~ Yue Lingshan.
And the purpose of their coming here is naturally very clear, that is, to buy this little-known tavern and wait for the opportunity to monitor the every move of the Qingcheng faction and the Fuwei Dart Bureau, but these two are only carrying out Yue Buqun's orders now, and they don't know the plans of their own head and father for the time being.
"Please sit down, please come here!"
At this time, an old man with gray hair on the side of the store door greeted him, the old man was hunchbacked, and his steps were a little staggering because of his age.
Attentively led Zhao Hao to the other table, and after hesitating for a moment, the old man said with some embarrassment.
"This, uh, son, the little old man's surname is Cai, I am called Lao Cai objectively back and forth, I have been running this small shop here for more than ten years, but today it is really unfortunate, after today, the little old man is going back to the countryside to retire, so he did not buy in time, there are not many meat and vegetables left in this store, and only a little thin wine can be imported, you see?"
"Sure enough, these two people haven't bought this store yet, so it's a coincidence that I can't write a book. ”
Muttered to himself in his heart, a simple plan quietly took shape in his mind, but Zhao Hao was silent on the surface, smiling and nodding to the long-known Lao Cai in front of him, and said.
"It's okay, it's a bit clever here today, and there are still some ingredients left in your hands, Lao Cai, you take it and cook it, well~ By the way, take two jars of good wine." ”
As he spoke, he saw Zhao Hao stretch his hand behind his back, flip his sleeve, and a cloth bag appeared in his hand.
Put it on the table and unfold it, but there is a piece of fresh beef weighing at least ten catties, a processed tender white fat chicken, two bacon the thickness of a baby's arm, and some fresh vegetables.
Lao Cai on the side and the two people who were secretly paying attention to Zhao Hao at the other table were all stunned, with blank and shocked expressions on their faces.
The little junior sister next to her, Yue Lingshan, had even lowered her head curiously, opened her small mouth and sank her head under the table, probing back and forth, but in the end, she naturally found nothing.
Needless to say, those meat ingredients were purchased before Zhao Hao left the dark world, and at that time, someone was afraid that after he returned to the real world, he would never be able to eat this kind of high-quality stone that was a specialty in the dark world, so he filled most of his storage space before leaving.
And these vegetables are even more remarkable, they are produced by the authentic system default space, and the quality is excellent, even if it is much better than the vegetables in the dark, both in terms of taste and efficacy, it is difficult to find things in the world.
After about half an hour, the wine and dishes are served, such as stewed chicken, fried meat, assorted vegetables, etc., all of which are home-cooked dishes.
But these ordinary dishes are irresistible at this time, and a strong aroma of food fills the whole shop, as if it is a delicacy that belongs only to heaven.
Old man Cai was greedy, and finally swallowed his saliva and hid directly in the kitchen, found half a piece of steamed bread and wiped the meat and vegetable soup at the bottom of the pot, and ate it secretly, while the senior brothers and sisters on the side could only sit there at this moment while envying the wine and meat on Zhao Hao's table, while bowing their heads and barely nibbling on the wine and vegetables on their side, which tasted like chewing wax.
"Meeting is fate, why don't you two come and have a meal with me?" Zhao Hao looked at the two over there with a smile on his face at this moment and invited.
As soon as Ling Hu Chong and Yue Lingshan heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and after glancing at each other, they both saw the change in each other's eyes.
"This~ not very good, how can a foolish person like Xiao Lao'er dare to eat at the same table with an immortal figure like the Taoist Chief?"
"Hehehe, this old man laughed, what kind of immortal figure am I, but I am just a Taoist disciple with six impure roots and an unfinished heart, you and I are both foolish people in the world, what is the difference?
Besides, I do have more wine and food on this table, and I will definitely not be able to eat it alone, so instead of wasting it for no reason in the end, it is better to enjoy it with my husband and this young lady, wouldn't it be happy?"
Zhao Hao tried a little hard to imitate the words of the ancients in this period, but the words in his mouth happened to say that the hearts of the two people next to him went up.
I saw that after the pair of senior brothers and sisters glanced at each other again, they no longer shirked, and couldn't wait to get up and come forward, after sitting down, compared to Yue Lingshan's slight twist, they smiled at Zhao Hao embarrassedly, and then tasted it in small sips.
But Ling Hu Chong was more calm, grabbed the chopsticks directly, threw a large piece of red fluttering beef into his mouth, chewed it a few times, his mouth was full of oil, and then he exclaimed with a look of enjoyment.
"Don't hide it, before my father and daughter smelled the taste of this food, it was as if they had lost all the souls on their bodies, and the saliva in their mouths had already been swallowed, and this time they tasted it, well~ This delicious meal will definitely make the old man unforgettable!"
"Hehehe, you can eat more if it's delicious, these meat vegetables in my hands were originally grown in that place with abundant spiritual energy, nourished by the essence of heaven and earth, this taste is naturally better than ordinary vegetables, and it is generally difficult to eat. ”
Zhao Hao said, stretched out his hand and grabbed the excellent wine jar sealed by yellow mud, patted off the wooden stopper, and a faint aroma of wine came to his face.
Turned sideways to clean up the mouth of the altar, and while the two of them were busy destroying the food, they added some ingredients to it unconsciously~
No need to ask, it's the "intermediate obedient fan" that this guy just drew from the system before
I saw a small handful of white powder quietly spilled into the jar, and in the blink of an eye, it quickly dissolved in the wine and disappeared, even if it was not much better than the phenomenon of snow melting in water, it was very magical.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Zhao Hao turn around, although there were some ups and downs in his heart, but on the surface, he still had that amiable smile, and quietly poured a full bowl of wine for the senior brothers and sisters on the table, the whole process was extremely smooth, and it can only be described as flowing water.
"Hey! These seemingly ordinary ingredients are so extraordinary? No wonder they can have such a delicious taste, my father and daughter are really fortunate in three lives, and since the Taoist can eat them, he must be from a famous family, right?" Ling Hu Chong ate a mouth full of oil, and did not forget to test his origin.
However, Zhao Hao already had a countermeasure to this, and replied seemingly casually: "What a famous sect, it is just a Taoist temple of seclusion, it was prosperous for a while a long time ago, but unfortunately now it has passed the times, and some floating names have long been submerged in the world."
Oh, it was a poor Dao rude before, get to know me, my surname is Zhao Minghao, from the Pure Yang Dao Sect!"
Zhao Hao said, picked up the sea bowl on the table and saluted the two brothers and sisters, raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl, and when the two people on the other side saw this, they also hurriedly put down the other things in their hands, picked up the wine bowl in front of them, and drank it all without hesitation~
Intermediate obedient fans: The official organization of the intermediate martial arts world used many strange people and took decades to develop a secret medicine, which is the only prescription for interrogating martial arts people.
Anyone who falls for this secret medicine will be in a state of ignorance for an hour, obeying others' words and answering all questions, and those who are not mentally resolute cannot resist it.
In addition, it is ineffective for martial artists who have cultivated to be strong above the innate realm, as well as martial artists who have studied the secret method of spiritual power.
The method of removing the secret medicine can be filled with cold water on the heart of the head~
Looking at the two senior brothers and sisters in front of him who suddenly became a little sluggish and only knew how to eat and drink, Zhao Hao couldn't help but feel a burst of pride in his heart.
"Hehe~!This Xiaoao Jianghu World is just a little higher ranked in the low-level martial arts world, and the masters who have reached the innate level of cultivation don't know if there are any more in this world, and the old guy who is clear and clear is not necessarily.
As for the secret method of spiritual power, not to mention, the entire golden martial arts world, probably the soul transfer ** in the Nine Yin True Scripture, is only one, the Huashan faction definitely does not have that kind of high-end goods, otherwise Lao Yue still needs to plot any evil sword technique?"
Zhao Hao was analyzing in his mind at this time, and got up and walked to the kitchen,
Just a face-to-face kung fu will be directly fascinated by Lao Cai, who was stealing food there, and then he used the mental power ability he drew from the system~ hypnotism, the little old man's memory was modified, and then directly let him go back to his room to sleep, and he was not allowed to wake up until dawn tomorrow~
After doing this, Zhao Hao turned around and looked at the pair of senior brothers and sisters who were still eating and drinking at the dinner table, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he walked towards the two.
"Resolute people, hehe, maybe Ling Hu Chong, who has experienced tragic changes in his life in the future, may be counted as one, but now, he is still a little tender~"
