Along the way, Zhegongzi respectfully asked her about her background and her intentions to go to the Great Snow Mountain. She dealt with a few casual words, only saying that she was sent out by a certain immortal to do things. As her supernatural cultivation grew, the invisible majesty on her body became more and more intense, especially when facing mortals.

Zhegongzi's attitude became more humble, and he also introduced the medicinal herb snow doll abundant on the Atalia Snow Mountain by the way. This is the snow ginseng, the whole body is snow-white and fat, and the white radish looks very similar, but the snow ginseng that is more than 1,000 years old has hands, feet and heads, and looks like a fat baby.

This thing only grows in the snow-capped mountains above 3,000 meters above sea level, which is already rare, and if it can still run in the last year, it will be more than ten times more difficult to pick. However, it is also one of the materials of high-grade elixir, and the price of hundred-year-old snow ginseng is at least more than 1,000 taels of silver per plant, and there is no market.

However, in fact, there are two plants planted on the soil of the Gods and Demons Prison, and the seeds are from Guangcheng Palace, and these two snow dolls can still play hide and seek with Ah Li if they are fine.

Zhegongzi's home is not a mansion, but it can be regarded as magnificent in the Hulian tribe, with a large façade and high walls.

The full name of the prince is Hulian Zhe. On the way here, he had already introduced Ning Xiaoxian and his family, who specialized in the purchase business, collecting leather, snow tea, rare herbs and other specialties of the Great Snow Mountain from safaris and retail investors, and then shipping them to the mainland for sale. This business is not a small risk, but it is very profitable, so Hu Lianzhe's family still lives very nourishingly here.

The building in front of me is divided into several entrances, and in front of it is a business. Someone delivered the goods to the door, and the guy came out to negotiate and weigh, and the goods were paid for both the money. The mountain will be closed in a few days, which means that the acquisition business will soon stop, and the convoy of goods is about to leave for the mainland, so the business of the firm is now very hot, and there is an endless stream of individual customers rushing to take the last train to sell goods, and behind is Hu Lianzhe's house.

If you dare to build a warehouse and a house together in the middle of the southern Ganbu continent, it is a nouveau riche who has lost the dirt. I'm afraid it won't make people laugh out of their big teeth, let alone one after the other, but this is not Middle-earth. Merchants are not so particular about living.

Hu Lianzhe's family relationship is very simple, his mother died early, and his father passed away last year, leaving only one sister. Except for the guys who are not mentioned. There are only three or four servants in the family, and the life is far less luxurious than that of the rich people in the mainland.

"I didn't see that this big business was actually taken care of by a teenager like him. She was quietly biting her ears with Changtian, and Hu Lianzhe had already welcomed the two into the inner hall. There is a lot to protect Ning Xiaoxian, and the other demon guards of the hidden stream are all left in the outer hall.

After entering the hall, I saw a graceful little girl standing against the door.

"Huh!" Changtian and Tu Duan were taken aback.

Tu Duan looked at this little girl, then turned his head to look at Ning Xiaoxian, and said with a twist of cheek: "Are you sure this is not your long-lost sister?"

It's rare that this ice cube face, big wood will make a joke. Ning Xiaoxian glanced at him. The little girl covered her mouth and smiled, looking much more ladylike than her.

Hu Lianzhe couldn't help laughing and said, "Does it look alike? This is the sister." Hulian Minmin. Miss Ning entered the city the day before yesterday, and I happened to be shocked to see it, and I was really startled at that time. Now, you know why I've invited you to my home, right?"

Ning Xiaoxian looked at Hulian Minmin with wide eyes, and muttered after a while: "Now that I know, I can't imagine that in this great northwest, I can find someone so similar to me, it's really a trick!"

The two girls who are less than twenty years old are of similar height, and their faces are seventy percent similar, both have apricot eyes and cherry lips, the corners of their eyes are slightly raised, and their noses are beautiful, and they are a pair of sisters standing side by side. In addition to the different hairstyles, Ning Xiaoxian's chin is slightly pointed, while Hulian Minmin's jaw is more rounded, Ning Xiaoxian's body is much more popular due to years of cultivation and exercise, but when he wears winter clothes outdoors, it is not so obvious. In terms of skin, Hulian Minmin has the light honey-colored skin of a local woman, while Ning Xiaoxian has the characteristics of a woman who cultivates immortals and is as white as jade. In addition, the divine light in her eyes is more agile, and Hulian Minmin has low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, a weak willow supporting the wind, and her demeanor is full of beautiful style.

This temperament is actually envied by Ning Xiaoxian, because she has never had it herself. It seems that although he is in the northwest, the dead father Hulian has never relaxed the education of his children.

The aura between the guests and guests was quickly warmed up because of her and Miss Hulian's similar appearance.

After the servant served the drink, Hu Lianzhe pulled Tu Duan to chat, and Hu Lian Minmin also timidly walked to Ning Xiaoxian's side, and after opening and closing her lips a few times, she said softly: "This honey water tastes special, Miss Ning, please taste it." ”

As soon as she got the drink, she smelled a sweet fragrance, and when she took it up and tasted it, it was really honey. Tea is a specialty of the central and southern regions, and at this time it is still a luxury, and the residents of the great northwest rarely taste it. Although "snow tea" is also produced here, it is actually made from lichen plants in the high mountains, and the locals rarely bring it out to entertain guests. It's just that the taste of this honey is very different from what she usually tastes, and there is a hint of coolness in the sweetness. "Sure enough, what kind of honey is this?"

"Winter honey saved last winter. Seeing that she was drinking happily, since there was something to talk about, Hulian Minmin slowly became less nervous, "This is a bitter cold place, there are seven months of heavy snow in a year, and the materials are naturally not as rich as those in Middle Earth, but the Great Snow Mountain also has special products, and this winter honey is one of them." ”

When she opened her mouth, she could also hear the difference in their voices. Ning Xiaoxian's voice was as crisp as a jade bead, while Hulian Minmin was sweet and glutinous, like a good rice wine: "Bees don't all collect honey in spring. There is a peculiar jade bee in the Atalia Mountains, which can go out on sunny and windless days to gather the aroma of plum and other winter flowering plants to make honey. It's just that this kind of bee is also very vulnerable, and there are not many sunny times in the Atalia Snow Mountain, so winter honey is not common. This kind of winter honey, like good wine, is stored for as long as possible, not only to eliminate stasis and fire, but also to treat many scabies. Last year, my family received a jar of 30-year-old winter honey and sold it for a high price of 2,000 taels of silver in the mainland. ”

Ning Xiaoxian stuck out his tongue and said, "It's so expensive and rare, then I don't dare to drink it." ”

Hulian Minmin raised his sleeves and covered his lips, and said with a smile: "It's okay, since my father went, it has been rare for my family to have a distinguished guest come to the door, Miss Ning is not polite." ”

The two girls talked and laughed for a while, and the more they talked, the more harmonious they became. Ning Xiaoxian is not yet twenty years old this year, and he is in the prime of life, but the gods and demons are not only living in the opposite sex, non-mainstream, but also non-humans...... On the way west, she didn't know how many thousands of miles she had walked, and she didn't have time to talk to a mortal girl of the same age. This chat, they talked very happily, only picked up the interesting things on the way to the west and told Hulian Minmin, I heard that this good girl who did not go out of the gate and did not step out of the second door was full of brilliance, and I couldn't wait to experience it in person.

Changtian kept reminding her in the Gods and Demons Prison: "The more you say, the more you will be wrong, be careful not to leak your mouth." ”

On the other side, Hu Lianzhe was pulling Tu to gossip, and what he said the most was nothing more than an anecdote about his own journey from south to north, and then asked Ning Xiaoxian's identity and background. Tu Duan has lived for more than a thousand years, and his knowledge is many times more extensive than him, and he has no interest in what he said, only nodding lightly, and almost writing the three words of impatience on his face. Hu Lianzhe didn't see it, he was still talking to himself enthusiastically, occasionally looking at his sister, Hu Lian Minmin's eyes showed a complicated look of hesitation and fear, and Hu Lianzhe looked at her with encouraging eyes.

Ning Xiaoxian admitted that her curiosity had been piqued to the extreme. What do these brothers and sisters want to do?

Hu Lianzhe's family is also a big local family, and the wine banquet is very authentic. A dish of snow-capped old bacon fried white porcini mushrooms makes people eat with an aftertaste. The bacon here is smoked for much longer than elsewhere, the color turns black, and the smell of smoke is strong. And porcini mushroom is a fungus that grows in the woodland at least 900 meters above sea level, sweet and fatty, thick flavor, and then throw two peppers to fry together, black, white and red are brilliant, and the taste is naturally good.

Another dish of snow chicken soup is also unique. The feathers of live chickens are grayish-white, and they are not easy to find hidden in the snow, but after plucking the feathers, the meat color is actually black and shiny. Spring is coming, and the snowcock has already eaten fat and round in the autumn to survive the winter, so the second soup cooked at this time is sweet and delicious, and the chicken is tender and not lacking in game.

The wine used at the table is also very special, called ice wine, which is transparent and golden yellow, cold in the mouth, but luscious as honey, smooth in the throat, and has no spicy feeling at all. When I asked, I learned that this is a fine wine made from the grapes naturally frozen on the tree in the low temperature season, the taste is sweet and mellow, fresh and delicious, just such a small pot, the market price is 30 taels of silver.

In the middle of the banquet, Hulian Minmin looked at the two of them frequently, his eyes were full of guilt and guilt, making Ning Xiaoxian almost unable to eat. Sister paper, you must be professional in acting, you want to hurt people, and look at people with such explicit eyes, only fools or pretending to be stupid will not be suspicious, right?

Hu Lianzhe also sensed that she was wrong, and glared at his sister fiercely while Ning and Tu were not paying attention. Hulian Minmin had no choice but to hang his head and stare directly at the bowl in front of him.

Ning Xiaoxian had no choice but to pick up the wine glass on the table and cooperate with her to act, but Quan Dang didn't see it.

The point is that she only took a sip, and the tip of her sensitive tongue detected a faint numbness, so she knew that the host had made a fuss in the wine. (To be continued......)
