Chapter 41: Rumors

Two months passed in a hurry, Shifang in Xiao Dafu's mansion, accompanied a group of servants to exercise for an hour, and then bored to the back garden, under the cold wind, plum blossoms bloomed silently, a few points of pink but proud light red is reflected in a rockery between the thin stones, but there is also a little bit of posture.

"Brother Shifang, you are here again, why don't you come to visit my sister this time."

"Madam, ah, no, Sister Bai, I just finished training those domestic servants and nurses, and I was thinking about walking around, and then I took the opportunity to eat a meal at my sister's place." Shifang hurriedly explained.

"Since we recognize our brother and sister, we can't say something considerate. Do you have to have a meal to talk? Could it be that in Shifang's heart, my sister is not as good as those so-called delicacies? Bai Xiaoru said slightly.

Shi Fang thought about it seriously, and then sneered for a while, and said: "Where, of course, Sister Bai is more important, if there is no Sister Bai, where will I have the opportunity to sit with Xiao Yuanwai and eat those delicious foods, some of which I have never seen and tasted in my life." ”

"How do I hear it, and how do I think it's still more important than me?" Bai Xiaoru asked with a smile, "Brother Shifang, you are actually joking now." ”

I would have been, but I always felt really uncomfortable talking to women, but I didn't dare to say that, Shifang thought for a long time and asked, "Is Sister Bai okay this time?" ”

"I don't know, it's okay, it's not good." Bai Xiaoru's eyes were suddenly a little confused, she thought for a while before continuing: "You know, my sister's background is not good, I used to think that finding a good family was a great happiness, and when my husband found me, I could say that I was ecstatic." And since marrying into Xiaofu, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and even what I want, as long as I can find it, my husband will always satisfy me with an atmosphere. It's the life that my sisters have ever dreamed of, but I know I'm not happy when I think about it. Maybe my sister is too greedy. Bai Xiaoru stuck out her tongue, and then said, "Today I asked the kitchen to prepare your favorite braised pork for you, a big pot." ”

Is it because of that agreement? Shifang secretly said in his heart, the world of women is really a bit strange, but as soon as he heard the braised pork, Shifang's face was flushed, and he rubbed his hands embarrassedly, it turned out that there was a sister, and it felt good. "Thank you, sister."

"Do you know your husband well?" Bai Xiaoru asked cautiously.

"It's ok. Xiao Yuanwai values me very much. ”

"So, do you know what happened to him?"

Shifang shook his head, I heard that Xiao Yuanwai came here three years ago, someone must have arranged this identity, of course, this should be the master's request, and in the Danxia Sect to cultivate, the master has been out for a long time several times, and there must be something related to here. "I don't know, Sister Bai also knows that I only came to Guangming Town three months ago, and I used to wander around, living without a fixed place, and I was valued by Xiao Yuan, so I had a hut." In order to facilitate the exercise of the Shifang guide Jiading, Xiao Yuanwai generously built a hut on the side of the mansion, of course, because of the work of the dock, Shifang basically does not live here, only today, after training the Jiading, take a little rest in the hut, and then go to the dock to carry goods at night, of course, if there is nothing to do at night, Shifang will also live here for one night, and sometimes you can chat with the master and talk about some spiritual things.

"Oh, then, do you think there's something wrong with him?"

"Huh?" Shifang was stunned for a moment, "There shouldn't be any, you can eat and drink, and the amount of food is not small." ”

Bai Xiaoru's face instantly turned red, and she said again and again: "That's good, that's good, I'm just asking casually." Brother, don't take it to heart. ”

"Look at what my sister said, if you need any help, just ask." Shifang took care of everything, and secretly muttered in his heart, is the content of that agreement really so important, woman, it's really strange.

In the evening, when everyone finished moving the goods on the dock, the wine recipe of the high lame man took advantage of the wine to pull it apart. Dong Hai said mysteriously: "Recently, there is a rumor that has become more and more intense, saying that there is a fairy island in the sea not far from us, do you know why the fish and shrimp in the offshore sea have gradually not been salvaged in recent years?" ”

Gangzi said: "I know, I know, it was the immortals on the fairy island who ate all the fish and shrimp in the vicinity in one bite." ”

"." Dong Hai scolded and continued: "It's because fish and shrimp are more sensitive than people, and they all gather around the fairy island to suck fairy qi, ready to become spirits." ”

"Really, fake. It's not the lotus flower of Yiqing Building that told you. Lao Wu asked.

Dong Hai's face turned red for a while, "Nonsense, now this kind of rumor is everywhere, you ask around." ”

Gao lame man surrounded him, and he said: "How did I hear that the fairy island is floating from the bottom of the sea, others say that maybe it is not the fairy island, but the dragon palace under the water, it seems that only the full moon night surfaces to the sea." ”

"Has anyone found it?"

"It doesn't seem to be. But I always felt that it wouldn't be groundless. ”

"I heard that the Dragon Palace is made of crystal, and it is all gems and pearls, if you find it, as long as you catch a little bit and come back, you can buy some family property in the future, and then marry a daughter-in-law, and you will not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of your life." This time, it was Kuroko's words, although he was black, but he had a good heart.

"Now the sunspots know how to marry a daughter-in-law, and they have grown up." Dong Hai laughed.

As a monk, Shifang doesn't care much about this kind of thing, is it a legend, it's harmless, and it can always add a little fun to life. And as everyone talked, they turned the conversation to women.

Heizi also drank too much, and then asked: "Brother Dong, you say, the man and the woman, is the man more comfortable, or the woman is more comfortable?" ”

"Nonsense, it's all comfortable, but we men are pitiful, it's comfortable to find a woman, but it always costs money, women are comfortable, and they can still collect money, it's really fucking unfair." Lao Wu was the first to say.

"Fair, yes, the fifth child is in good health, or I'll introduce a business that is both comfortable and silver." Gao Cripple said with a smile.

Lao Wu felt a chill and scolded: "Fuck you, according to what you said, Lao Tzu might as well read more." ”

Shifang was a little curious, "What does this have to do with reading more?" ”

Dong Hai laughed and said: "Shifang, you don't understand, what Lao Wu means is that it is better to read more, pretend to be a down-and-out scholar, and be a vassal outside some wealthy compounds, chant a few sour words, what is a bird in the sky, what branches are in the ground, and then the rich lady is unbearable, and she has such a good heart, and the two eloped happily with a huge fortune, and achieved a good story." ”

"By the way, what is it called in the words of those scholars, it was my father and mother who gave birth to me, and I know that I belong to Dong Hai."

The crowd burst into laughter again.

Shifang touched his bald head, himself, he was really too pure. But Sister Bai is not happy, does it really have anything to do with that agreement, I have a headache.

When the sun illuminated the small city of light again, Shifang also woke up from meditation in his own room, and the mansion had already been renewed, more than twice as large, and he was divided into a small room. Stretched out and walked out of the house, Aunt Zhang and the others had already prepared some breakfast, and the originally hungry and slightly yellowed face of the potato slowly became rosy, "Brother Shifang, you woke up so early." ”

"Well, do you have anything to eat in the morning?"

"Yes, Aunt Zhang prepared steamed porridge and pickled cabbage for everyone, which tasted good."

Shifang touched the potato's head, and then said, "yes, then I have to taste it." ”

Shifang walked to the side hall where he was eating, and a person was gulping porridge, "Brother Gao." Shifang shouted.

"Shifang, I just have something to look for you, I haven't had breakfast yet, Aunt Zhang's pickled cabbage is good, come, come and eat a little together, let's talk while eating." Gao Feng greeted.

In the past three months, everyone's faces have looked much better, only Gao Feng is busy, although his spirit is still very good, but Shifang can see the tiredness revealed between his eyebrows, recently, what worries can't be done?

Shifang served a bowl of porridge, took two steamed buns and walked over, Gao Feng pushed the bowl of cabbage, "Come, taste." ”

"Well, it's sour and crispy, and it's really good with porridge steamed buns." Shifang gulped down.

Gao Feng laughed, "If you like it, eat more." ”

"Of course." Shifang ate a seven-seven-eighty-eight, then looked at Gao Feng, who stopped the dishes and chopsticks, and asked, "Brother Gao, is there something wrong?" ”

"Have you heard of the latest legends?" Gao Feng asked.

"That fairy island floating from the bottom of the sea?" Shifang asked.

Gao Feng nodded: "What do you think?" ”

"Nonsense, legends, pay for a laugh." Shifang looked at Gao Feng's serious expression and asked with some surprise, "Could it be that the legend is true?" ”

"I don't know, but an auction house of the Haitou Gang wants to auction a fairy grass, which is said to have been found on that fairy island. Just tomorrow evening. ”

"It's really fake, it's not a trick for the Haitou Gang to play against us, right?" Shifang is still a little unconvinced.

"It's impossible, Boss Qian even secretly informed the government, and also notified the wealthy people in the middle row of Guangming Town, and gave me an invitation." Gao Feng's face was a little ugly, and his foundation was still a little shallow after all.

"If it's true, it's a demonstration against us." Shifang thought for a moment and said.

"That's what I thought, you say, should we go or not?"

"Go, why don't you go, I haven't seen fairy grass in my life, how can I miss the opportunity to increase my knowledge?" Shi Fang secretly thought in his heart, the fairy grass belongs to the seven-grade spirit grass, how could it appear on a remote seaside, I want to see what the Haitou Gang sells.

"Okay, you won't go to the dock tomorrow, and then let's go and have a look at the Ruyi Auction House of the Haitou Gang."

"Okay." Shifang smiled, "Then let's eat a little more, I haven't eaten yet." ”

Gao Feng was stunned for a moment, laughed, and the tension between his eyebrows disappeared, thank you Brother Shifang, and walked away after speaking.

"It's really delicious."

Xiao Dafu used the fragrant tea in front of the table and flipped through the Buddhist scriptures in his hand, feeling very comfortable. Well, in recent days, why are there two ignorant casual cultivators in the early stage of foundation building who don't know how to converge their breath, and they have walked around so many circles in this bright small city, and what kind of fame they have made, is it to test whether there are other monks with high cultivation here, and they are ready to be powerful and prosperous here, and if they turn around again, they can't say that the poor monks will directly teach them a lesson, just let it be, they are about to turn mortal, why is the mood so scattered, is it that I am a little nervous.

The door suddenly rang: "Master, I have prepared some snacks for you." ”

"Well, come in, ma'am." Xiao Dafu's eyes froze, looking at his expression, Bai Xiaoru, who came in, was overjoyed, she was wearing silk pajamas, revealing most of her shoulders, even the large snow-white on her neck and the looming furrow on her chest were exposed, watching her husband stride over, Bai Xiaoru's breathing suddenly became a little tight.

"Why are you so careless, what should I do if I catch a cold, come, put on my clothes, go back and take a hot shower, don't get sick."

"Hmm." Bai Xiaoru's face turned even redder, feeling the temperature of her husband's clothes on her body, and quietly returned to the room, hot water flowed on the perfect carcass, Bai Xiaoru secretly said in her heart, am I a little prodigal, it's all the idea of the damn maid, but don't you agree, looking at her perfect delicate body, Bai Xiaoru sighed, but, how many years does a woman have. Lying quietly on the bed, his eyes refusing to close, as if waiting for something.

Xiao Dafu looked at the red candle that had not been extinguished in the bedroom for a long time, sighed, and closed his eyes in the study.
