After returning to the Kuixian Kingdom, Ling Jiuchuan was still a king with all kinds of opportunities, and he would come to inspect the work from time to time, which made Bai Jingzhi nervous; Jin Luoluo's injuries are not healing soon, and he still often comes to chat with Shu Kui; Shu Kui, as before, returned to Wanjilou and continued to look for clues in the sea of books, hoping to find a way to return to the world on his own.

After nearly a month of such a peaceful day, one day when it was almost time to get off work, Ling Jiuchuan came again, saying that Boss Li in the race room saw that the invitation sent out had not responded for a long time, so he came in person, saying that he would let Shu Kui go again, and this time he had a treat.

You don't have to spend money, and you can eat delicious food, Shu Kui is of course willing, and immediately followed him to the race world.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the box, a man greeted him with a smile: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are getting more and more handsome." ”

Ling Jiuchuan ignored him, turned his head to Shu Kui and said: "This is the boss of the race world, Li Huan, who said that he is a scattered immortal, but in fact, he is a money fan and a second-way dealer, not only selling ridiculously expensive human dishes, but also often going to the world to sell things there, such as cosmetics, clothes, bags, shoes, etc. ”

Shu Kui nodded and said "Hello", the appearance and figure of the person before meeting were ordinary, only a pair of eyes were clear and bright, and they were bright.

"Hello." Li Huan smiled, "Presumably the girl is Shu Kui that Guo Yuansheng has been talking about, right?" Sure enough, she looks beautiful and has an elegant temperament. ”

As soon as these words came out, the beautiful image of the immortal in Shu Kui's heart was completely subverted in an instant, and at the same time, he was a little overwhelmed by this flattery, so he had to laugh and laugh with him.

"Please come in, please use it slowly." Li Huan stepped aside and pointed to the two seats where the cutlery and towels had been arranged.

Ling Jiuchuan took Shu Kui to sit down, just like last time, just drank some tea, did not eat, but watched with great interest Shu Kui eating there alone.

"How's it going, it tastes okay?" Li Huan didn't move.

"Well, it's delicious." Shu Kui's mouth was full of food, and his words were slurred.

"Wait until late autumn and early winter, and I'll get you a few more hairy crabs." Li Huan held his cheek with one hand and glanced at Ling Jiuchuan.

"If you bring hairy crabs, she will pay for the meal herself." Ling Jiuchuan said unhurriedly.

Shu Kui was anxious when he heard it: "Forget it, forget it, Boss Li, thank you for your kindness, I can't afford to eat, the first time I came, I don't know when the money for that meal will be paid off." ”

"Oh, you paid for it yourself?" Li Huan raised his eyebrows, "Then let's get a discount, it's all home-cooked food anyway." ”

"yes, thank you so much." Shu Kui nodded.

Ling Jiuchuan looked disapproving: "Tell me, how much is it after the discount?" ”

Li Huan thought for a while: "Originally, the ingredients were Guo Yuansheng's own, how he wanted to calculate it, whether he wanted to calculate it or not, I don't care, but it took working hours and my kitchen and fire to make that meal, so it means to charge one hundred and fifty taels of gold, and then, make a ninety-eight discount, one hundred and forty-seven taels." ”

"Ninety-eight fold......" Shu Kui couldn't cry or laugh a little.

Ling Jiuchuan wanted to laugh on the side, sipped his tea, and didn't say a word.

Shu Kui silently calculated in her heart that according to her monthly salary of one tael of gold, it would take her one hundred and forty-seven months to pay off the arrears, that is, she would have to work in Wanjilou for twelve years and three months, and there could be no expenses during this period.

"Is there really anyone here who can afford to eat?" She muttered, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the future was bleak.

"You are eating the dishes cooked by Guo Yuansheng himself, if you change to another chef, the price will be much cheaper." Li Huan explained.

Shu Kui was silent, thinking that his sister was missing, and he inexplicably went to a place where there were no normal people, not only was he blindfolded with a huge debt, but he had almost lost his life twice, and he couldn't help but feel angry and sad, and there was nothing to vent when he saw it, so he could only turn his grief and anger into food, and bury his head in hard work again.

Ling Jiuchuan and Li Huan also stopped making a sound, and for a while, the box was very quiet.

During this period, Li Huan kept staring at Shu Kui, and after a while, he suddenly started to speak: "Shu Kui, do you want to follow me to cultivate immortals?" ”

Shu Kui said "ah", thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"Follow me to cultivate immortals." Li Huan repeated.

"May I?" Shu Kui asked him, but secretly looked at Ling Jiuchuan.

Ling Jiuchuan didn't react.

"Yes." Li Huan said, "You might as well worship me as a teacher, and I will teach you the method of cultivating immortals." ”

"May I?" Shu Kui still couldn't believe it.

"Yes." Li Huan emphasized, "When the time comes, you will be able to come and go freely from all walks of life." ”

"Well, at least in a few hundred years." Ling Jiuchuan added, "In addition, there is no free lunch in the world, I wonder how Boss Li plans to charge tuition?" ”

Seeing that his true intentions were revealed, Li Huan simply said generously: "If you want to cultivate immortals, the tuition fee must be charged, but it also depends on the income, and it will not be too much." ”

Shu Kui said in his heart, and he couldn't say a word with a wry smile.

"Boss Li must have been all over the world, right?" Ling Jiuchuan teased.

"Your Majesty's words are wrong." Li Huan shook his head, "Although I love money, I won't accept apprentices casually, if it weren't for her immortal roots, I wouldn't mention it." ”

said, and then turned to Shu Kui: "How is it?" Think about it. ”

"Don't think about it, she can't afford to learn." Before Shu Kui could speak, Ling Jiuchuan answered for her.

Shu Kui also nodded beside him, indicating that it was the truth.

"Well, that's all there is to it." Li Huan shrugged with regret.

Next, Ling Jiuchuan and Li Huan fell silent again, and Shu Kui lost the interest he had when he first arrived, so he quickly ate enough and went back with Ling Jiuchuan.

The night was quite peaceful, and there was no dream all night.

Early the next morning, Shu Kui went to the cafeteria for breakfast and walked to Wanji Building.

Bai Jingzhi took a step first, just opened the door, saw her, said hello with a smile, and turned into the utility room.

"Are you going to wipe the clock?" Shu Kui asked casually.

Bai Jingzhi said "um" and took a bucket and a rag: "It's nothing to do today, you go to read a book." ”

Shu Kui answered, went upstairs, and continued to read the book that he didn't finish reading yesterday.

I don't know how long it took, but there were footsteps on the stairs, and they came to her slowly.

As soon as she looked up, she saw that Yuxiao was leaning over slightly, also looking at the book in her hand.

"Why are you here?" Shu Kui had the impression that Yuxiao had been busy, and it was rare to run to Wanji Building leisurely like now, "Looking for Bai Jingzhi?" ”

"He seems to be asleep." Tamashi gestured helplessly down the stairs.

Shu Kui was quite surprised, hurriedly put down the book and ran downstairs, and sure enough, he saw Bai Jingzhi lying on his desk, breathing evenly, motionless, and indeed asleep.

"How could it be ......" She was just as helpless, and at the same time a little puzzled, she reached out and was about to push.

"Let him go." Yuxiao stopped her, "Do you want to go out with me?" ”

"Going shopping?" Shu Kui was stunned, "Ling Jiuchuan asked you to take me out?" Want to buy something? ”

Yuxiao nodded: "Buy a few clothes." ”

"Whose money is it for?" This was the first question that Shu Kui thought of.

"With Majesty's." Tamashi replied.

Shu Kui didn't believe it: "Why do you want to buy me clothes?" ”

"I don't know." Yuxiao turned to one side and made way to get out of the way, "Your Majesty is in the room now, are you going to ask?" ”

"Don't." Shu Kui immediately refused, "I can't ask anything good, let's go." ”

As he spoke, he strode out of the Wanji Building.

Along the way, Yuxiao was very fast, almost ignoring the people who passed by to greet her, Shu Kui didn't care, just followed behind, and before long, the gate of the palace wall was already in sight.

At this time, there was a chaotic footstep behind the two, and Shu Kui was just about to look back, but he didn't want to be grabbed by Yuxiao's wrist.

"What's wrong?" Shu Kui was a little panicked and instinctively wanted to break free, but Yuxiao's strength was surprisingly strong, and he held her veins tightly.

"Let go of me, what's going on?" Gradually, Shu Kui felt that his entire arm, even the small half of his body, was numb.

"Let her go!" Suddenly, Tamashi's voice actually came from not far away.

As soon as Shu Kui turned his head, he really saw that there was also a jade xiao standing there.

She suddenly felt bad in her heart and struggled desperately.

And the Yuxiao beside her ignored all her movements at all, only looked at the guards who surrounded her, and said with a smile: "Little sister of the Yu family, do you think they can trap me?" ”

"Who are you? How dare you become like me? Yuxiao asked, his hand quickly reached to his waist, and with a flick, the lock spirit flew out and hit the opponent's neck.

The fake jade xiao was still smiling, raising his hand to block in front of him, and let the lock spirit tape snake wrap around his forearm.

Seeing this, Yuxiao thought that he had succeeded, so he immediately recited the spell silently, wanting to order the lock spirit to continue to attack and entangle the opponent's body, but the lock spirit silk, who was usually free to retract, did not move at all.

"Little sister, your belt embroidery is good, are you going to give it to me?" Slowly, round by round, the fake jade took the lock spirit silk off his arm and pinched it in his hand.

Her move was casual and casual, but Yuxiao was shocked when she saw it in her eyes.

The lock spirit silk is not an ordinary belt, but is woven with the silk of the fog blue spider, and the shark silk is not wet in the water, but it is lighter and more flexible, and it is embroidered with the lock spirit ambush spell, and the cultivation to the present, not only can it control the living soul and the dead soul, but also can deal with all the creatures of the human race and the three frontiers, even if the cultivation is quite high, it can not get out immediately if it is entangled, and now this person is not serious at all, I really don't know how deep the Tao is.

As soon as he thought of this, Yuxiao didn't dare to slack off, and was busy sealing with his other hand, reciting words in his mouth.

The fake jade let go of the lock and looked at the ground there as a small patch of quicksand.

She looked indifferent, quietly waited for the quicksand to reach her ankles, and then raised her head and said, "Little sister, don't say that your intermediate quicksand technique is the fire qilin of Yubotian, and you can't help me." ”

As she spoke, she lifted her foot and stepped out of the quicksand in just one step, bringing the ground back to normal.
