Chapter 17: An Unfortunate Coincidence

readx; For three days in a row, Ning Chen was doing laundry and chores in the backyard of Lingyan Pavilion, and he had never been to the front hall, except for Li'er who came to talk to him from time to time, the rest of the people rarely came to the backyard. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The luxury of the front hall and the desertion of the backyard will be in stark contrast when night falls, the moment the lights are on, the Lingyan Pavilion will show its extremely prosperous face, fireworks and willow lane, always a gentle township that men forget to return.

At this time, the backyard is the quietest, Ning Chen likes to look at the stars, he always feels that there is a star in the sky that is his home, although he can't find it yet, but he will always find it.

He wondered where he had been, and if this was no longer the original Earth, why could he still see a vision like the Glowing Guard, which should only be seen on Earth.

Looking at the stars in the sky, Ning Chen's eyes were confused, and his heart was even more confused, the starlight, a bend of the moon, how could he not see the most familiar blue memory.

Tired of looking and counting, Ning Chen moved his gaze to the moon in the sky, and carefully distinguished, the moon in this world was indeed different from the previous life, with a faint red color, it looked like it was covered with a layer of blood mist, and it was illusory and a little unreal.

It is said that this world was created by gods, and the moon in the sky was incarnated by the ancient creator gods, and the Eternal Night God Cult believes in this legendary only god, and has always believed that the gods will come one day.

Ning Chen didn't like this legend, if the gods really existed, then what was the belief he had firmly believed in in his previous life?

Gods, it is more valuable to live in legends, and there is no need for gods in the world.

The mental method given to him by Twilight Chengxue is very unsmooth, there are too many places that he can't understand, and he doesn't feel any effect after practicing the places that he can understand for a few days, but he believes that the effect will always show up.

Sure enough, on the fourth day, he could feel a subtle stream of air flowing along the veins in his body, and with each run, the air flow would increase slightly.

Ning Chenle was broken, he was really a peerless genius who had not been met in a hundred and eighty years.

It's just that he doesn't know that Zhenyuan needs moves to play a role, and it is recorded on the golden paper, but unfortunately he can't understand it.

And Twilight Chengxue's original intention was to make him physically strong, so even if he knew that he probably couldn't understand anything other than the first few lines, he didn't mean to teach him.

Ning Chen didn't care, it wasn't that he was open-minded, but he didn't know about it at all, anyway, he knew that his practice had an effect, and the rest didn't care about him.

In this way, working during the day and cultivating at night, after tossing for nearly half a month, Ning Chen was happy and quiet, but he didn't know that something big had already happened outside.

Li'er still came over to fight with him every day as usual, but unfortunately in the face of Ning Chen's poisonous tongue, there was no doubt that she was defeated every time, and sometimes she was very angry, and after biting it fiercely with her little tiger teeth, she happily ran back to the front hall.

Ning Chen didn't know how many tooth marks he had on his arm, but every time he still didn't have a long memory, and a few words tickled the little girl's angry teeth.

The two of them bickering has become commonplace, even if they were angry the day before, they couldn't stop the enthusiasm of Li'er to run to the back hall, once talking about the boiling big things outside, Ning Chen was stunned for a while, and finally left it behind, he came out, these things have nothing to do with him, let the eldest grandson have a headache.

But two days later, Ning Chen found something that really gave him a headache.

His only shoe was scrapped......

When he was running, he brought a change of clothes but forgot to bring his shoes, which lasted so long and finally died heroically, this time he couldn't think of it.

But he didn't have any money!

The shopkeeper returned Yuehan's clothes to his former capital, and now he has no money, let alone buying shoes, even insoles can't afford them.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in the morning, Ning Chen arrived at the front hall, looked left and right, and looked for Yue Hanyi's figure.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Li'er saw Ning Chen coming early in the morning, and stepped forward to ask fiercely.

"I want to be paid" Ning Chen said with confidence, he has been working for so many days, he can't not pay a penny.

Li'er looked at Ning Chen as if she had discovered a new world, and said in disbelief, "You are even embarrassed to ask for wages"

"Hehe" Ning Chen smiled weakly, and he also knew that he was at a loss, but he didn't want to be paid, he simply sewed this shoe, but he couldn't last a few days.

"Sister Yi is not here, you better wait for her to come back" Li'er was defeated by Ning Chen's cheekiness, but she didn't expect him to be so shocking in addition to his mouth.

"Then pear, you lend me some money first, and use it urgently"

Ning Chen struggled in his heart for a moment, and finally opened his mouth quite embarrassed, ashamed, he was actually reduced to borrowing money from a little girl.

"What" Li'er was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the former suspiciously, like an anti-liar.

Looking at Li'er's eyes, Ning Chen felt that his personality had been insulted, and said indignantly, "What kind of eyes are you, just borrowing money to buy a pair of shoes, do I look like the kind of person who borrows money and doesn't pay it back!"

Li'er glanced down at Ning Chen's shoes, thought about it for a while, and said, "You want to go out and buy shoes?"

"En" Ning Chen nodded very hard.

"You wait a minute"

As soon as the words fell, Li'er trotted to her room, took the silver, and explained to a few women dressed as maids, and then walked back in a hurry.

"Alright, let's go"

"Are you going too?" Ning Chen said curiously.

Li'er glanced at the former with contempt, and said, "You owe a hundred taels of silver, you're going to run away, how can I explain when Sister Yi comes back?"

"......" Ning Chen was speechless, is he like that kind of person?

The location where Lingyan Pavilion was located was the most prosperous place in the Imperial City, Ning Chen was dazzled, and Li'er followed him, staring at him cautiously with both eyes, for fear that he would run away.

"Pear, I said I wouldn't run"

Ning Chen stopped, turned around and repeated again helplessly, he didn't know how many times he had said this sentence, but Li'er just didn't believe it.

"That's not for sure" Li'er didn't believe Ning Chen's words at all, a hundred taels of silver was enough to buy several of her.

The little girl didn't believe it, and Ning Chen didn't make a move, so she let her follow.

After walking for a long time, Ning Chen's body suddenly froze, and his expression froze, as if he had seen a ghost.

Li'er didn't expect Ning Chen to stop suddenly, and accidentally bumped into it, and immediately covered her red forehead in pain, and her little face was full of anger: "What are you doing?"

"Don't talk" Ning Chen came back to his senses, quickly covered the little girl's mouth, and half-dragged it to the side of the fortune-telling booth to block her body.

Shielded by the fortune teller's card, Ning Chen looked ahead cautiously, not daring to take a breath, how could she be here?

On the side of "woo", Li'er was covering her mouth and nose, her breathing was not smooth, and she struggled with a red face.

When Ning Chen saw it, he hurriedly let go, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, and almost forgot about the little girl.

"You want to suffocate me!" Li'er gasped a few times, her heart was extremely angry, and she reached out and hammered the former hard, and said angrily.

"Shhh

"What's wrong?" Li'er was attracted by Ning Chen's gaze, and looked along, but didn't find anything strange.

"Hunted by the enemy"

Ning Chen flickered at random, but it was almost the same, he was caught back, and if he didn't die, he would lose his skin.

"Do you want to tell fortunes, measure fortunes, make up for good luck, and don't want silver" At this moment, the middle-aged scholar at the stall asked.

"I don't have any money"

Ning Chen replied without hesitation, fooling him? Don't even think about it!

"I can calculate a hexagram for my son for free" The middle-aged Xiangshi smiled slightly, not caring.

Ning Chen ignored him and continued to observe the enemy's situation, why didn't this aunt leave? It couldn't be that the eldest grandson was specially sent to arrest him, right?

"Childe is hiding someone?" said the middle-aged Xiangshi smiled.

"Nonsense" Ning Chen replied disdainfully, this is still necessary, even the blind can see it.

"Woman," the middle-aged man added.

"En" Ning Chen was still unmoved, there are only men and women in this world, either men or women, and it is not uncommon to be right.

"In the palace," the middle-aged man continued.

"En, en?" Ning Chen responded first, then was stunned, and looked at the big flicker in front of him in surprise, he has a little ability, this can be right.

"Childe, are all the things you said here correct?" the middle-aged Xiangshi asked with a soft smile.

"Hehe" Ning Chen smiled perfunctorily, he was angry, he thought he was an iron-mouthed god twice, I x, this signboard is really written as an iron-mouthed god.

The middle-aged Xiangshi saw that Ning Chen still didn't believe it, and continued, "Childe, with all due respect, fate sometimes has to come and go, and there is no time in life to force it, cause and effect are determined, and it is not the past that Childe wants to hide."

After waiting for a while, Ning Chen saw that Qianying not far away had finally left, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, glanced at Xiangshi, pointed to his nose and said, "You count who I am."

The middle-aged Xiangshi was stunned and said, "Listening to the son's accent, it should be a person from the capital"

"Fart, Lao Tzu is an earthling"

When the words fell, Ning Chen pulled Li'er and hurriedly flashed people, this place can't stay, if he is caught, it will be miserable.

Li'er was confused by the conversation between the two, and she didn't react yet, watching Ning Chen walk back, she subconsciously asked, "Why did you go back, didn't you buy shoes?"

"If you don't buy it, your life matters," Ning Chen replied nervously.

"Oh" Li'er didn't know what was going on, but seeing the former's nervous look, she obediently followed back together.

Walking to the front of Lingyan Pavilion, Ning Chen looked left and right, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he pulled Li'er and ran in two steps, and then, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was so dangerous, fortunately, his eyesight was good.

"I'm tired, let's have a cup of tea"

In a soft and moving voice, a cup of tea was handed in front of him, Ning Chen's mouth was dry, and he didn't think about it, so he took it and drank it all in one gulp, and thanked him by the way:

"Thank you"

"Poof"

In the mouth of the tea, Ning Chen suddenly squirted out, turned around tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice, "Qing... Sister Lime"

"Isn't it a good place to hide, let me find it for a while"

Lime responded lightly, there was no anger or anger on her beautiful face, but Ning Chen, who was still frightened, didn't dare to breathe.

Ning Chen remembered very well that he tied up the lime when he ran away, which offended this aunt and grandmother, and this time he was dead.

His mind turned and turned, thinking about how to get out, but when he thought of Lime's skills, he dispelled his thoughts of looking for death.

"Okay, I've had enough fun after coming out for so many days, it's time to go back with me" Undoubted words, Lime glanced at Ning Chen, the meaning of warning in her eyes was obvious, if she was disobedient, don't blame her for being polite.

Ning Chen's heart trembled, and he asked tentatively, "Niangniang is angry?"

"What do you say?" Lime laughed angrily, and the guy was embarrassed to ask.

When Ning Chen heard this, his head immediately shook like a rattle, "If I don't go back, my mother will cut off my head."

"You also know that you're scared at this time" Lime couldn't wait to slap this kid to death, pretending to pass on the queen's decree, stealing the palace utensils, and escaping from the palace, which is a capital crime of beheading, this guy is good, all at once.

"Know," Ning Chen hurriedly nodded.

Seeing Ning Chen's nervous appearance, Lime didn't want to scare him, and said in a slightly softened tone, "You go back with me first, Niangniang has already suppressed the matter, just to save your life, you go back and admit your mistake to Niangniang, as for how to deal with it, it depends on Niangniang's mood."
