Chapter 3 I was slapped in the face by a cliché
Lu Lao hummed a little song and walked on the bluestone road in the village, his expression was slightly shy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"I said Old Man Lu, what are you daydreaming about, so shy." The name of the village quipped.
"It's not a pipe dream, I've taken in an apprentice." Lu Lao said happily.
As soon as the other villagers heard that Lu Lao had accepted an apprentice, they all gathered around, staring at them as if they were watching a play.
"Old man Lu, where did you pick up such a dirty stupid boy, can this kid cultivate martial arts?"
"I look at the stupid boy in his twenties, and now I'm still thinking about cultivating martial arts, it's not a pipe dream."
"The strange old man took in a strange apprentice."
"This old man is idle all day long, and it is estimated that his idle brain is not good."
The villagers were unabashedly chattering about these ugly words, Jiang Yisheng was very embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do.
Lu Lao didn't care at all, and he didn't look angry at all.
"You laymen don't understand, my apprentice, hahahaha, you won't understand, hahaha." Old Lu laughed again halfway through his words.
"This old man is crazy."
"Yes, a lonely person ordered a lonely one, and picked up a silly boy to accompany him." The villagers began to pity Lu Laolai.
"Old man, I call you really crazy or crazy, we haven't settled our accounts yet." A hostile voice rang out.
The middle-aged man who came badly was called Wang Jianshan, who was a tyrant in the village, and no one dared to mess with the ninefold cultivation of the forging body realm in the village, but the most feared thing was that his eldest son who was an inner disciple in the Tongnan Sect.
"The water lingzhi plant was handed over to me a few days ago, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." Wang Jianshan's tone was not good.
"I've sold the water lingzhi, and I've spent the money." Lu Lao said.
"You! Cut off my financial route again and again, don't blame me for making you unable to stay in this village anymore. ”
"What about me, if you can." Lu Lao likes the way you can't get used to me and can't kill me. "Don't get in the way, I'm going to take my apprentice into the city."
Because of the proximity of Shishan Village to Tongmang Mountain, most of the villagers rely on going up the mountain to collect medicine to earn some extra money, Wang Jianshan, as a village tyrant, naturally occupies all the good places in the mountain to collect medicine, as long as there are good herbs in his pocket.
But Lu Lao doesn't care about this, he goes up the mountain to collect medicine and picks it when he sees it, so he doesn't care what kind of village tyrant is not a village bully, although Lu Lao has never shown his strength in front of the villagers, but it is more than enough to tease Wang Jianshan.
Wang Jianshan is also fearless who does not know, if he knew that Lu Lao was a master of soul melting essence, he would not dare to speak like this if he was given a hundred dares.
"Hmph, do you want to take a waste boy to send you to the end, too, a lot of age, don't die and there is no one to send you to the end."
"Waste boy? You can say me, but you can't call me an apprentice. Lu Lao Zhengse said.
Jiang Yisheng was inexplicably moved, this master is powerful, he protects the calf, and he doesn't lose anything by following him.
"Look at his appearance in his twenties, start cultivating now, cultivate until you die, he won't break through the soul attraction realm, it's not a waste."
"My family Jianguo broke through to the soul attraction realm at the age of eighteen last year and became a disciple of the inner sect of Tongnan Sect, compared to your apprentice, you say that he is not a waste, hahahaha." Wang Jianshan scoffed.
Jiang Yisheng muttered in his heart, "Isn't this a classic waste part of the novel, so happened to let me run into it." ”
"My apprentice can't compare with your son." Lu Lao said.
Wang Jianshan laughed, "Hahahaha, you also know that your apprentice is a waste." ”
"Your son is not worthy, he is not worthy to be compared with my apprentice." Lu Lao continued.
Wang Jianshan's laughter stopped abruptly, and he said angrily, "Do you know that you are talking about the inner disciple of the Tongnan Sect. ”
"Don't talk, let's fight." Lu Lao said calmly.
Jiang Yisheng muttered in his heart, "I'll go, isn't it, master, why don't you play your cards according to the routine, shouldn't the other party provoke first?" ”
Lu Lao continued, "A month, a month later, my apprentice will challenge your son. ”
"Master, master." Jiang Yisheng hurriedly called, even if Jiang Yisheng hadn't started cultivating yet, but thinking about it with his toes, he wouldn't be able to reach the Soul Attraction Realm in a month.
"Don't talk, handle it for the teacher."
"Hey, I haven't said anything yet." Jiang Yisheng's heart collapsed.
"Hahahaha, if you come to die yourself, you can't blame me, if your apprentice wins, the herbs will be written off, and if you lose, your master and apprentice will get out of the village." Wang Jianshan laughed wildly.
When the villagers heard this, they immediately whispered, "Wang Jianshan is clearly going to drive Old Man Lu away." ”
"If Old Man Lu is driven away, no one will dare to grab herbs from Wang Jianshan."
"I said to challenge your son, but I didn't say which one, my apprentice challenged your second son." Lu Lao said seriously.
"Shameless old thing, hum, although my Huzi is only twelve years old, he has already forged the Triple Realm. It's useless for you to play yin, you waste apprentice will lose. ”
"Old thing, get out in a month." Wang Jiansheng seemed to have won.
Lu Lao was not angry at all, his left ear went in and out of his right ear, he didn't care about any cynicism, although his realm was not high, but his vision was high, after all, his teacher was extraordinary.
After leaving the villagers, Jiang Yisheng couldn't help but say, "Master, you didn't ask any questions, just helped me get a duel, and the opponent was still a 12-year-old child." ”
"You don't think so when you see his second son, 12 years old, 12 years old is taller and stronger than you."
"And you're going to let me challenge him?"
"Give you the first practice, you are a peerless genius, and you will definitely abuse him after a month."
Lu Lao was in a good mood, and his steps were steady and fast.
"It's almost time to Pingzhou City, you can eat whatever you want later."
Jiang Yisheng stared ahead, and there was a towering and tall city wall at the end of the bluestone road not far away, which was extraordinary, and it looked like it was at least five stories high.
Liang is located in the southeast of the Eastern Regions, and Pingzhou City is located in the southeast of Liang.
There are many famous mountains and blessed places around the sect forces have a stronghold here, there are many warriors here, commerce is prevalent, the streets are prosperous, and when approaching the city gate, there is an endless stream of pedestrians coming in and out.
My God, I don't feel crowded when four Dongfeng trucks drive side by side on this street, damn it, why do I think of Dongfeng trucks again.
There are many pedestrians on the street, bustling, all kinds of shops along the street, and the cries of hawkers, if it weren't for the different architectural styles, Jiang Yisheng would think that he was still hanging out in a temple fair in China. The Tang Dynasty is nothing more than that, Jiang Yisheng said secretly.
"Apprentice, this drunken wind building in front of you is the best restaurant in Pingzhou City, and today I will take you to enjoy the blessings for the teacher."
Jiang Yisheng looked at the old man in front of him with a greedy mouth, and thought to himself if it was this old man who wanted to eat by himself, anyway, he didn't have anything, it was just eating and drinking.
Lu Lao took Jiang Yisheng to a four-story building, with a plaque hanging on it, like three big characters carved in gold, highlighting the extraordinaryness of this restaurant.
"The first and second floors of this drunken wind building are for ordinary diners, the third floor is for guests with silver hands, and the fourth floor is for guests with gold hands. We ate on the ground floor. ”
When Jiang Yisheng heard this, this is still a membership system, charge a few thousand and get a few hundred. "Master, who are the people on the third and fourth floors?" For Jiang Yisheng, he is now a curious baby, curious about everything, wanting to know, and learning as much as possible about this strange world.
"Some small forces, small sects." Lu Lao replied casually, very unconcerned.
At this time, because it was past noon, there were not many guests in the restaurant, and there were only four or five people sitting at more than 20 square tables on the first floor. ”
Lu Lao didn't think about it, "Stir-fried red wolf steak, braised Mangshan wild boar in oil, steamed Yellow Thorn Fish in the East China Sea, two large shuttle crabs in the deep reef of the East China Sea, and a pot of Xinzhu flower wine." ”
Xiao Er's face was a little wrong, looking at the master and apprentice, one old and one young were dressed very ordinary, but the dishes they ordered were the most expensive dishes in the Zuifeng Building, these four dishes, plus a pot of wine. At least 100 gold, which is enough for an ordinary family of four to eat for two or three years.
Lu Lao is an old man in the end, and without waiting for Xiao Er to speak, he took out a golden ticket of one hundred gold, Xiao Er's face changed very quickly, and he immediately laughed again.
"The two guest officers, please wait a while, the food will be served immediately, and the two of you will be served wine first."
"Apprentice, these are all good goods, this red flame wolf is not easy to catch, the adult red flame wolf is at least equivalent to the cultivation of the martial artist soul melting realm, because it is born with fire attributes, it is very popular with martial artists with fire attribute soul power, of course, this price is also high."
"Master, these dishes are not cheap, you are a hidden landlord."
"Hahaha, being a teacher is not a landlord."
"Then why don't you get to the third floor?"
"It's the same everywhere you eat, and those are all false names."
There were four big men sitting across two tables from the master and apprentice, and they were talking about something, there were not many people in the restaurant, and the big man was talking loudly, but he could hear it clearly.
"Have you heard, two days ago, the sun was shining in Tongmang Mountain, and the spirit beasts in the depths of the mountain were restless."
"How can I not know that the four major forces near Pingzhou City have all sent people to check, and I don't know if there is any spiritual treasure born."
"Heh, that movement, if it is a spirit treasure, at least it must be a spirit treasure above the Xuan level."
Two days ago, it was when Jiang Yisheng came to the Xuanyuan Continent, and Lu Lao also said that there was a vision in the mountains at that time, could it be caused by his own crossing.
The dishes ordered have been ordered, and the quality is on the earth, and the horror is also the level of a five-star hotel.
Lu Lao had already lifted the chopsticks and grabbed a piece of Red Flame Wolf Steak and ate it, Jiang Yisheng took a piece and put it in his mouth, the taste was indescribable, he had never tasted it before, the meat was fragrant, and when he swallowed it, his body slowly became a little warm.
After sandwiching two more pieces, Jiang Yisheng felt that the exhaustion in his body was suddenly gone, and his limbs were full of strength.
"How about it, this stir-fried red wolf steak tastes good, and then try this steamed yellow thorn fish, this is a specialty of the Eastern Regions."
This old man looks like an ancient fairy and a master of Chinese studies, why is he so greedy for food, Jiang Yisheng is also hungry, and you and Lu Lao eat one bite at a time.
In a quarter of an hour's effort, the two of them were rewarded with a full portion of four dishes.
"When you're full, I'll take you to Pingzhou City. Go to the Elixir Pavilion and buy you some elixirs for the Body Forging Realm. ”
。。。。。。
There are many pedestrians coming and going in the streets, and warriors carry or hold all kinds of strange weapons on their backs.
"Pingzhou City is remote, and the scale of the elixir pavilion opened here by the Alchemist Association is slightly smaller, but there are still a lot of low-grade pills, so they can be used."
Lu Lao took Jiang Yisheng into the elixir pavilion, the smell of medicinal materials inside was very strong, and the rows of wooden cabinets were full of small jade bottles. It says the efficacy of the elixir. There are hundreds of all kinds.
"Senior, what elixir do you need?" It was a sweet-looking girl who received it.
"Ten bottles of raw muscle pill and Yijin pill each."
"Huh? What the? ”
The little girl who received her thought she had heard a mistake, and asked again with a smile and a careful face.
"Ten bottles of muscle-building pills, Yijin pills each."
This is a big business, and few people can be so generous except for the people of the big forces nearby.
A middle-aged man walked over, his eyes were shrewd, just now he heard the conversation between Lu Lao and the reception, and secretly said that this could not be the elder of which sect.
"Senior, I am the steward here, dare to ask the senior if he is an elder of the Tongnan Sect?"
"Old man, I'm not an elder, I'm an idler." Lu Lao stroked his beard.
"This Shengji Pill is two thousand gold in a bottle, and there are five pills in one bottle, and there are two thousand gold pills in one bottle, and there are five pills in one bottle, and twenty bottles have a total of 40,000 gold." The steward counts.
Forty thousand gold, this is equivalent to four hundred spirit coins, usually the martial artists who come to buy the pill are bought by the piece, this Lu Lao is good, it is a bottle to buy.
Lu Lao took out four golden tickets of 10,000 gold from his arms and handed them over.
Jiang Yisheng noticed that the Qiankun ring on Lu Lao's right index finger had been taken off by him.
The middle-aged steward's eyes lit up, and he took the golden ticket and put it away, "Senior, you can get you the pill right away." ”
The master and apprentice carried two exquisite wooden boxes out of the elixir pavilion, and the steward behind them was still smiling.
"Master, your Qiankun ring?"
Lu Lao took out the Qiankun ring from his arms and put it on his index finger again.
"This Qiankun ring is not precious, but there are few people who can have the Qiankun ring in this Pingzhou City, and sometimes it is better to keep a low profile."
"I still buy so many pills at one time in a low-key manner," Jiang Yisheng muttered.
"Hahaha, compared to my apprentice, this money is a fart." Lu Lao walked leisurely towards the city gate.
The sun also slanted, and the reddish glow reflected in the distance was beautiful, as depicted in the poem, the sunset and the lonely bird flew together, and the autumn water was the same color as the sky.
Jiang Yisheng looked at the bustling Pingzhou City, looked at the old man with a goatee in front of him, and didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly his expression seemed to become resolute, as if he had made up his mind. clenched his fists and followed with two wooden boxes.
