Chapter Sixty-Seven: Two Nine Shaded Flowers
The New Year's greetings did not end until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and the relatives walked all over the house, and the New Year's money was also soft, which was only a lot more than the previous New Year's money, which fully demonstrated the rapid growth of the economic level.
By the eighth day of the first year, Jiang Yu and Xi Ling went back to the city first, and about the Su Han key, Jiang Yu heard that Baili Changqing had lived in Tan Qingya's old mansion for a few days, and then he took the Han key back to the demon capital, which made Jiang Yu puzzled that Tan Qingya, a demon girl, had not looked for herself for a long time.
It's not that Jiang Yu wants Tan Qingya to find him, on the contrary, Jiang Yu doesn't want Tan Qingya to come to pump his true anger from time to time, so Tan Qingya, who often harasses him, suddenly lost his voice inexplicably, making him a little unreal.
Finally returned to his room, Jiang Yu couldn't help but roll on the bed twice, looking at Xi Ling, who was fascinated by playing games, Jiang Yu was dissatisfied for a while: "I said eldest sister, can you pursue a little bit?
"And what do you want to do?" Xi Ling, who quickly clicked the mouse, asked without any waves.
"Let's do something that only adults can do!" Jiang Yu poked Xi Ling's back with his foot, his voice seductive.
"I'm really disgusted by you, you said that you can be a normal man, besides, I'm tired of me all day long, in addition to what I can't do, what else can't I do?"
Xi Ling shuddered, left the keyboard with both hands, and looked at Jiang Yu who was smiling with disgust.
"Hmph, don't care about me at all!"
"Gross... You talk to me normally, and I'll kick you out of the window when you're disgusted. ”
Xi Ling completely ignored Jiang Yu's resentful eyes, and stepped on Jiang Yu's face with his jade foot, looking disgusting as he stepped on it.
Jiang Yu, who was enjoying the fun of the world of the two, was suddenly broken by the ringtone of the mobile phone, Jiang Yu took the mobile phone from the bedside, and found that it was the phone of the rotten wood Taoist, so he remembered that he didn't seem to have given people a New Year's greeting.
"Good New Year's Eve for the seniors of Rotten Wood!"
"Lao Dao is almost at the city train station, ready to pick me up and meet and chat. ”
"City Railway Station? Rotten Wood Senpai means that you are about to arrive at our train station?"
"Mm-hmm, it's ten minutes at most. ”
Jiang Yu hung up the phone after confirmation, he was going to call a taxi to pick up people, because he didn't have a car, but he didn't know how to drive a car if he had a car, he didn't take the driver's license test three times in his previous life, and even if he passed the test, he might not be able to afford the car he wanted to buy, not to mention in this life, he was too lazy to learn to drive, and Xi Ling couldn't, so he didn't have anyone to drive a car even if he bought a car, but he didn't have any money.
"Sister Xiling, Senior Rotten Wood seems to have something to look for us, and it's already here. ”
Xi Ling said with a clear look: "Well, I know, I'll go with you." ”
When they arrived at the exit of the train station, Jiang Yu and the others saw the conspicuous figure of the rotten wood Taoist, wearing a brown coat that made him stand out in the crowd, and it was difficult to find him, but what Jiang Yu cared about was that what he was carrying in his hands was not a duffel bag or the like, but a small potted plant wrapped in a wind hood.
"The senior's face is like a spring breeze, it seems that there is something happy about it?"
"The rotten wood seniors are here and there, and this is obviously a peach blossom on the face. ”
"Haha, you two have a tacit understanding of husband and wife, Lao Dao is almost hungry, so it is imperative for us to find a place to eat first. ”
Kuchigi hurriedly opened the subject, neither refuting nor admitting it.
The three of them laughed and arrived at the restaurant, called "Dai Jun Restaurant", the restaurant is not a small two-story building, but because the price is decent, the portion is sufficient, and the taste is good, so the restaurant business has been very good, which is also one of the places where Jiang Yu's family likes to go to the restaurant together on weekends.
"What do you want to eat?"
"The guest is as he pleases, but the old way is never picky. ”
Jiang Yu nodded and said, "Sister Xiling, what about you?"
"Just eat it as usual. ”
"Waiter, dry pot goose wings to a large pot, then green pepper shredded pork, seaweed egg soup, sweet and sour tenderloin, roast chicken, dry stir-fried potato chips...... Another pot of our grain wine. ”
After Jiang Yu finished speaking, he looked at the rotten wood and said, "The predecessors want to taste our grain wine here, my father said that this grain wine is much more beautiful than Moutai." ”
"Good!"
"By the way, Senior Rotten Wood hasn't said what your purpose is for this long journey?"
Rotten wood looked at Xi Ling and said, "The girl didn't tell you?"
Jiang Yu turned his head in confusion, but Xi Ling rolled his eyes as if he didn't know anything.
"Haha, it's these three small potted plants, this gift is the purpose of my trip. ”
"But this can only give you a pot per person, and there is a pot of old Tao that is useful. ”
Kuchiki lifted the potted plant from the chair on the side and showed it to Jiang Yu.
"What is this?"
Before the rotten wood could speak, Xi Ling interjected: "This is the 'Nine Shades Flower', legend has it that this flower is not an extraordinary thing, but a flower seed that floats out from another world, and because this flower is extremely fond of cold places, the flowers are as white as snow, and the rhizomes are as black as night, so it is named Nine Shades." ”
"The girl is right, this flower dies before it blooms, so it can only be covered with a cover. ”
However, Xi Ling was a little puzzled: "As far as I know, this flower belongs to the treasure of the Five Poisons Sect, and the number is also very small, how can there be so many in the hands of the seniors." ”
"I have to thank Xiao Yu for this, Xiao Yu competed with the disciples of the Five Poisons Sect that day, and the old ghost of the Five Poisons Sect made a bet with me, so I easily won five plants, I took one plant myself, and left one plant in the Taoist temple, these two plants were given to you and the girl. ”
Jiang Yu is a confused fruit on the tree, and there is only me in the confused fruit.
"Wait, wait, can you still eat this flower?"
Xi Ling nodded, his eyes flickering, and said: "That's right, this flower can be eaten, but for ordinary people, eating it will die, but for martial artists who have entered the realm of true self, it is of great benefit." ”
"The girl is right, this flower can help the True Self Realm increase the breakthrough rate, and after reaching the Great Perfection of the True Self Realm, you can feel a trace of shackles, which is why the Nine Shadows Flower is precious. ”
Seeing that the dishes came up, Jiang Yu nodded and gestured: "Senior, let's talk while eating." ”
Jiang Yu poured another glass of grain wine for the rotten wood and said, "Senior, taste this wine first, whether it suits your appetite." ”
Rotten wood rubbed his hands wrongly, for him, wine is the kind that is uncomfortable if he doesn't drink it, at this time he nodded and picked up the wine glass, took a sip gently, a burst of heat rolled in his throat, and the aroma of wine overflowed and filled the six orifices.
"Yes, fill me with a pot of wine when I leave, and I'll drink it on the way." ”
Jiang Yu was puzzled: "Won't Senior Rotten Wood stay here for a few days?"
Rotten Mu shook his head and said a little embarrassed: "I also want to send Nine Shade Flowers to the Plum Palm Sect." ”
Jiang Yu and Xi Ling glanced at each other tacitly, they understood the ultimate reason why the Rotten Wood Dao people were so far away, Jiang Yu couldn't help but give the Rotten Wood Dao people a thumbs up in his heart.
"Xiao Yu, girl, don't you want to have a drink?" Rotten wood nibbled on a goose wing, took a sip of wine, and wondered.
"No, I'm not an adult yet, so I'll put the wine on hold for the time being, but I can touch it with tea and wine. Jiang Yu shook his head.
"When my wife was young, she hated Master's drinking, so I didn't drink. Xi Ling stroked his hair, with an expression that was useless if you looked at me.
"Haha, indeed, back then, your master was very afraid of guilt, and your master and wife were really heroes among women, but alas, it's a pity. ”
Kuchiki was a little sad as he spoke, and he was sullen in one breath.
Jiang Yu saw that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately said: "By the way, senior, I and Sister Xiling will definitely not be able to use these Nine Shadow Flowers for the time being, so will it die after a long time?"
The Rotten Wood Daoist shook his head and said: "This is not going to happen, as long as you don't let it see the sun, it's fine, but this flower has a characteristic, it only blooms once a year, the flowering period is only nine days, and the stems and leaves are still the same after the flower falls, it will never grow, and it will not bear fruit, only the mother flower of the Five Poisons Sect can bear fruit." ”
"In that case, I'm relieved. ”
The stomach was satisfied with the meal, but after that, the old man of the rotten wood did not want Jiang Yu and Xi Ling to send him to the train station again, but resolutely took a taxi alone.
The two of them had no choice but to give up and returned to the house with two pots of Nine Shade Flowers, Jiang Yu actually couldn't wait to see it in full.
Walking into the residence, Jiang Yu put the flowers on the table, and then closed the curtains of the windows of the house, Xi Ling was a little lazy because of the food, lying on the sofa, watching Jiang Yu's behavior, in fact, she had never seen the true appearance of the Nine Shadows Flower before, and it was inevitable that she was a little curious at this time.
After making all the preparations, Jiang Yu carefully opened the shade cover sealed on the potted plant, and a plant with a whole body like ink slowly appeared in front of the two of them, it was indeed as black as ink, giving people a feeling of stone carving, and the leaves were snowflake-shaped, with a dim light from time to time, giving people a sense of nothingness.
"It's boring, I thought it would be beautiful!" Xi Ling pursed his lips and felt a little tasteless.
"I don't know what the flowering looks like. Jiang Yu was a little curious.
"I'll go take a nap first, and you can figure it out for yourself. Xi Ling walked barefoot towards the bedroom.
Jiang Yu pressed his jaw and thought about what to do with these Nine Shadow Flowers, where to put them if he couldn't see the light?
With doubts, Jiang Yu turned around his house, but he couldn't find a suitable place, and finally Jiang Yu had no choice but to wash the ceramic jar that his mother had sent to pickle things before, and then put the Nine Shadows Flower in, covered it with a breathable cloth, and finally put the ceramic jar in the empty bookcase.
After doing everything, Jiang Yu nodded with satisfaction, then stripped off his clothes, pounced on Xi Ling, who was resting, and kissed ...... fiercely with that hateful big mouth by the way
The magic capital, a gorgeous and very large metropolis, Baili Changqing took Yueyue to visit his home at this time.
"How is it, isn't my sister's house beautiful?"
Su Han nodded and said, "Well, why is there only one sister in the family?"
There are also aunts who cook, cleaners, and old guys who are in charge of management, plus a total of 10 of us. ”
"Then why didn't Yueyue see them, and her sister's parents?"
The little girl's statement touched on the sore spot of a hundred miles of evergreen.
"My sister's parents can't come back for some reason!" Baili Changqing looked at the west, with sadness and perseverance in his eyes.
Seeing Baili Changqing's sad appearance, the little girl immediately stepped forward and threw herself into Baili Changqing's arms, and gently comforted: "Sister is not afraid, when Yueyue is afraid, her mother will always hold Yueyue, so that Yueyue is not afraid, Yueyue hugs"
Baili Changqing's heart warmed, and he gently stroked the little girl's head.
