Chapter 146: Borrowing Favors
The mute man recorded the shape of the white sand beach and took a large number of pictures and videos for reference in the design of the house drawings. As it gets dark, Rong Yuanhang proposes to send everyone back to the modern world.
Lin Naiwei said: "Hangzi, it's inconvenient for you to be here alone without anyone to take care of you, it's better to let Yanyun girl stay and serve you,......" Speaking of this, she turned her head to Jiang Yanyun and said: "Yun girl, do you hear, you stay and take care of your father-in-law." Laundry and cooking, you should be able to do it, right? ”
Jiang Yanyun was stunned by her sudden request, and she was speechless. Staying represents that she and Rong Yuanhang are really living a married life, which she has long been mentally prepared for.
But she was originally a pampered eldest lady, and she used to ride in and out of the house, hugging her before and after, even if she ate and picked up vegetables, she had a maid to do it for her. And now she is asked to stay and take care of her husband like a concubine! ――How do you know how to take care of others? Also laundry and cooking?
"Mom, it's not necessary, is it?" Rong Yuanhang looked at Xiao Yufeng, saw that she and Zixing's master and apprentice were both looking at each other with blazing eyes, and said, "I can take care of myself here alone, not to mention that there are six households and twenty people, which is completely enough for manpower." ”
At this time, Lu Xiaofu suddenly said: "Auntie, why don't you let me stay, I can take care of the voyage." ”
"You?" Lin Sufang said with a smile: "Can you take care of Yuanhang?" It's good not to let the voyage take care of you. ”
"Yes. Little Fu, don't make a mess. Yan Yun is a middle-level martial arts master, if there is any unexpected thing that can be dealt with for a while, can you? Lin Naiwei also said with a smile.
Lu Xiaofu said dissatisfiedly: "Hmph, doesn't she know how to do a few kung fu...... However, the voyage ...... Auntie, I really want to stay with Yuanhang. Will you promise me? ”
Rong Yuanhang opened his mouth and said, "Go back, Xiao Fu and Yan Yun are not suitable to stay." There's no water or electricity here, you think it's fun? Mom, it's only a step away from me to go back, and I can even go back to eat every day, so there's no need to let them stay. Besides, I still have to do things. It's really inconvenient for them to stay here. ”
"Why don't you let Feng'er stay?" Zixing suddenly proposed.
"Master?" Xiao Yufeng was surprised: "Who will take care of your old man if he stays here?" ”
Zixing shook his head and wanted to speak, but Rong Yuanhang opened his mouth: "This is even more impossible!" ”
The little daughter-in-law stayed, Rong Yuanhang was very moved, but Xiao Yufeng had her task and said: "Senior sister wants to take care of your diet and daily life, how can you stay by my side." ”
"Old body...... I can take care of myself. Zixing said: "The aura here is more sufficient, and there is no comparison between it and here." Your martial arts progress is too slow, Feng'er stays here. I can help you improve. What's more, Feng'er has been stuck in the middle level of the Martial Sect for a long time, and if she cultivates here, she is expected to break through within a year, but over there, she can't break through for another ten years, unless there is a Yuan Jing for her to use. ”
"Yuanjing?" Rong Yuanhang thought that he should buy some yuan crystals, not to mention that his mother, aunt and others had to use them.
"Master. Why don't you stay? Xiao Yufeng thought about it for a while and said.
"Me?" Zixing smiled wryly, "I don't look like this. The enemy is too powerful, once the identity of the teacher is revealed, it will be a catastrophe. ”
Lin Naiwei was terrified when she heard this, "What kind of enemy is so powerful?" She secretly thought, at this moment, she thought of modern weapons and equipment!
For the sake of who stays on this matter. Several people actually argued. Ground is about to break ground for major construction here, and there are many people, so Zixing is not suitable to stay.
However, she didn't know what Zixing was thinking, but she insisted that her apprentice Xiao Yufeng stay with Rong Yuanhang. And Rong Yuanhang and Xiao Yufeng are not worried that Zixing will stay alone in the modern world. Because she has no arms, she needs to be taken care of by manpower, and Xiao Yufeng, the only person who is suitable to take care of her, was advised by her to stay here.
Rong Yuanhang felt a little distressed in his heart, looking at Uncle Zixing's persistence, he suddenly understood: maybe Zixing didn't want to waste time on construction at all!
"Why don't you do this......" Rong Yuanhang proposed: "Mom, there is no need to do any construction here, how about making plans when you find the medicine and heal your uncle's hand?" ”
"But......" Lin Naiwei suddenly stopped talking. She originally wanted to say when the hands of the 'in-laws' would be good?
I heard that the love butterfly flower is immortal in the bottom of the sea at a depth of 10,000 meters, so how many years and months will it take to find it? However, she was originally a smart person, and she gradually understood Zixing's intentions - now is not the time to covet Hengle, everything is based on revenge.
"Well, you can do whatever you want. The most my mom can do is provide you with logistical assistance. Lin Naiwei compromised.
In the end, it was unanimously decided that there was no need to build a large house, and that the stone house used by Ba Da would be used as a temporary residence. Since the plan has changed and Zixing has decided to stay here, it is not suitable to expose his identity in front of outsiders. Rong Yuanhang simply cleaned up all the residents of White Beach, including Ba Dayong's family.
In this way, every family in Baisha Beach received a thousand taels of silver from Rong Yuanhang, and then happily moved away from this place where they had lived for generations.
Seven days have passed since this incident. Before that, Rong Yuanhang also went to Hidden Dragon Town, retrieved the Thousand Forging Sword, and then took Miao Renfeng and Miao Xiufeng back to the village as promised. And now, the huge white sand beach is only inhabited by Rong Yuanhang, Zixing, Xiao Yufeng and Jiang Yanyun!
……
In the evening, in a small courtyard deep in the Masson pine forest on the white sand beach, the chimney on the roof rose with billowing smoke, Rong Yuanhang and Xiao Yufeng were sweating after practicing, and as soon as they returned home, they saw smoke all over the yard.
"Ah, is there a fire?" Rong Yuanhang asked exaggeratedly.
"Ahem, ahem......" A graceful figure rushed out of the smoke-filled kitchen, covering her nose and coughing.
"Yan Yun, what's wrong?" Xiao Yufeng asked.
At this time, even Zixing couldn't stand the thick smoke and walked out of the courtyard from the room.
"Ah, Xianggong, Sister Xiao." Jiang Yanyun was very embarrassed, with a few stains on her face, and saw Rong Yuanhang and the three of them. couldn't help blushing and said, "The slave family was cooking just now, maybe this firewood is too wet...... Belch. ”
Rong Yuanhang pointed at her funny, smoked and rushed into the kitchen to see, where is the firewood too wet? The whole earthen stove was stuffed with firewood, and because of the lack of oxygen, smoke rose for a while.
"Alas. It's really Miss Qianjin's life! Rong Yuanhang shook his head. I had to take out some of the firewood that had been lit and make the earthen stove burn normally. A scorching smell came from the pot, and when I opened the lid, I saw it......
Rong Yuanhang was speechless for a moment, and the middle of the rice was completely burnt!
"I'm sorry......" At this time, Jiang Yanyun and Xiao Yufeng were both standing behind Rong Yuanhang, the former biting his lip and lowering his head like a child who had done something wrong: "Xianggong, slaves, slaves don't know how to cook." ”
"It doesn't matter, sister, I'll come." Xiao Yufeng hurriedly comforted her.
Zixing also came to the kitchen at this time, and shook his head in amusement.
All four of them currently live in a former house in the University of Ba. This house occupies quite a lot of land. There are about 200 square meters, but there are only three small houses, divided into the main room and the wing room. With the addition of this kitchenette, it is considered four.
The main room is relatively large, with about 40 square meters, which was originally lived by the husband and wife of Ba Dayong, and now it has become the bedroom of Zixing and Xiao Yufeng. The other two wings were occupied by Rong Yuanhang and Jiang Yanyun respectively, and outside the courtyard was a low wall made of stones. Besides. There is nothing else.
"Well, I'd better do it." Rong Yuanhang was helpless. Xiao Yufeng is actually not very good at cooking. It's only a little bit better than Jiang Yanyun. Originally, Lin Naiwei arranged Jiang Yanyun to take care of the three of them, but now it seems that Rong Yuanhang has taken care of the three women.
"What's so embarrassing?" Jiang Yanyun smiled, smiling a little slyly.
"Come on, go, you all go and stay outside." Rong Yuanhang unceremoniously connected with Purple Star. Kicked the three women out of the kitchen.
Cailong is not here, but has gone to the sea to look for the love butterfly flower. Fortunately, there is also a Vajra ape pet beast to call, and the rough work such as collecting firewood and carrying water belongs to it, and it is free, no pay and no food. After finishing the work, he was put into the war pet space.
Simply made four dishes and one soup, a square table, spread it in the middle of the courtyard, and put all the meals on it. Zixing, Xiao Yufeng, Jiang Yanyun and Rong Yuanhang sat around the table respectively.
Zixing took off her shoes and exposed her feet, using her feet instead of her hands to eat, she didn't like to be fed by others. It sounds indecent, but she is so beautiful, her every move looks elegant, even when she is eating, and the flexibility of her body is amazing. There are no outsiders here, and she doesn't have to worry about her image, so she eats very casually. In the past few days, Rong Yuanhang has been accustomed to her behavior.
"Uncle Shi, do you eat meat? I'll clip you a piece? Rong Yuanhang asked diligently.
"yes, okay." Purple Star smiled happily. Rong Yuanhang picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth, Zixing didn't dislike it, he opened his small mouth and ate it, not caring at all that the chopsticks were used by Rong Yuanhang.
"Uncle Shi, I plan to go to the town tomorrow to buy some Yuanjing and come back." Rong Yuanhang said.
"Xianggong, how much is the price of Yuanjing here?" Jiang Yanyun put down the dishes and chopsticks and suddenly asked.
Rong Yuanhang asked the Miao Renfeng brothers and sisters about Yuanjing's price a few days ago, so he knew the situation. So he replied: "There are four grades of Yuanjing in the town, such as white, yellow, orange, and red. Baijing is 3,600 taels of silver per tael, which is 80 taels of gold. And citrine is 8,000 taels of gold, basically, each grade is ten times the price of the previous grade. ”
"This price is more affordable than Dayin's." Xiao Yufeng also said: "The white crystal that the concubine bought from someone in the Imperial City of Dayin costs one hundred and twelve taels of gold for every two. ”
"Sister, your price is already several dealers," Jiang Yanyun interjected, "If the little sister buys it, it will be a hundred taels of gold at most." However, the grade above citrine cannot be bought, and it is better here. ”
Yuan Jing can quickly improve her own cultivation, but it also has to be divided into levels: for example, Zixing is currently a holy rank, except for red crystal, amethyst, and the highest grade black crystal, other low-level Yuan Crystals have no great effect on her at all. But high-grade hedron is very rare, and even if there is, it is an astronomical price. It is what Rong Yuanhang cannot afford at present.
Not counting the silver in the modern family, there are still 92,000 taels of gold worth of azurite coins left on the body, which is only enough to buy 11 taels of citrine. However, these 11 taels of citrine are applicable to Rong Yuanhang, Jiang Yanyun, and Xiao Yufeng.
Zixing said, "Yes, Yuanjing is also a problem. The energy in my battle pet space with Feng'er is about to run out. If you need Yuanjing energy replenishment, you should try to buy some of it,...... Well, is there enough silver? ”
"Uncle Shi, don't worry. I'll figure out how to deal with money. Rong Yuanhang replied: "I still have 90,000 taels of gold on me, which is enough to buy 11 taels of Huang Pin Yuanjing." ”
"Oh, that's good...... Eleven taels of citrine, a few of us will share it, which is enough to last for a year. Zixing said casually, of course, the 'usefulness' she was referring to did not include her own use of Yuan Crystal to cultivate, it was only used to replenish spatial energy.
"Hey, someone's coming......" Zixing said suddenly.
"Roar!" A huge beastly roar.
The beast's roar was the Black Tiger King's. Because Zixing does not see outsiders, Rong Yuanhang released the Black Tiger King to guard around him, and idlers are not allowed to approach the range inside the white sand beach.
"Ouch, my mother, it's the Black King Tiger!" After the tiger roared, someone screamed out in fright.
Rong Yuanhang listened with his ears, and it came from the woods more than a thousand meters away, this sound was very familiar, and he judged that it should be Miao Renfeng's.
"I'll take a look. It should be a friend I met a few days ago, the son of the village chief. Rong Yuanhang said and put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up. But the voice outside was not scared away. Instead, he shouted, "Boss...... Boss, are you there? I'm a human phoenix! Come and see you! ”
Zixing was halfway through eating, and then stood up: "Okay, you let them come." I'll go back to my room. ”
Rong Yuanhang hurriedly said, "Uncle Shi, no, you eat slowly." I'm going to check it out, I'm not going to bring him over......"
"There are three people on the other side." Zi Xing heard the breath of the person who came out, and then said, "One is a beginner of the Martial Sect, one is a senior martial artist, and the other is ...... Well. This shouting man should be a martial artist mid-rank! ”
"Yo, two more?" Rong Yuanhang was slightly taken aback.
He went out of the house and headed straight to the mountain pass to the north, where the only road led to the village of Gaoliu. When I walked over, the pet beast Black Tiger King was sitting majestically at the mountain pass, blocking the way of the comers.
I saw from a distance that there were actually two men and a woman, except for Miao Renfeng, the other middle-aged man was his uncle Ruan Maoqi, and the woman with a graceful figure was Miao Xiufeng, the boss of the Miao family's Jiufeng!
"Little San, come here, they're guests!" Rong Yuanhang snorted at the pet beast, feeling a little strange in his heart, why did Ruan Maoqi come to the door? "I'm sorry, it turned out to be Senior Ruan, you came? It's a long way off! ”
"Haha, I can't think of it, boss?" Miao Renfeng said with a smile, Miao Xiufeng saw Rong Yuanhang, saluted him and didn't say anything.
"Young Master Rong, don't be surprised to come here!" Ruan Maoqi arched his hand. Then he pointed to the Black Tiger King and asked in surprise, "Young Master Rong, this is also your war pet?" ”
"Oh, the Black Tiger King is the pet beast of the clumsy room," Rong Yuanhang lied, and asked, "I don't know why Brother Miao is here?" ”
"Well, this ......" Ruan Maoqi was speechless.
Rong Yuanhang saw that Miao Xiufeng had two jars of unopened wine in her hands, and immediately understood what they meant, since people came to visit enthusiastically, it was difficult for him to turn away. hurriedly smiled and said, "Ah, look at my ......, the three of you, please!" ”
He believed that Uncle Shi would avoid it. So please come over with three guests. While leading the way, he gave them a vaccination: "I'm sorry, my uncle is coming over now, she doesn't like to see the guests, and I hope to bear with me." ”
Ruan Maoqi and the other three were polite, and they were invited by Rong Yuanhang to a military tent in Lin Ye. But he did not enter the stone house.
"Yo, this thing, it's so chic!" The Miao Renfeng brothers and sisters looked at the military tent and exclaimed. Ruan Maoqi was also surprised, he had never seen such a 'house'!
In the tent, there was a folding dining table for camping, and Rong Yuanhang invited them to sit down. At this time, Jiang Yanyun brought tea and drinks on a tray and delivered them to everyone.
"A few guests, please use it slowly." Jiang Yanyun greeted them generously. But Xiao Yufeng and Zixing did not appear.
"This is the Poor Ginger Clan!" Rong Yuanhang introduced.
Miao Renfeng and the others hurriedly greeted each other and looked very polite. Jiang Yanyun didn't participate in their meeting, and hid back in the courtyard after delivering tea, also because there were only four chairs in the tent, and she didn't even have a place to sit here.
Ruan Maoqi and the others are full of curiosity, although Rong Yuanhang is simple here, it is full of mystery, such as tables, chairs, tents, and even the drinks and tea sets sent by Jiang Yanyun are unseen and unheard of!
"Boss. Y-What a strange thing you've got here? Am I too lonely? Miao Renfeng finally couldn't help but sigh.
Rong Yuanhang smiled slightly, and he didn't explain. Look at Ruan Maoqi, and then look at Miao Xiufeng, the latter's face turned red, and the atmosphere was a little strange.
In fact, this time, Ruan Maoqi and the others came with two purposes. The Miao family unanimously discussed, and Ruan Maoqi planned to match the eldest daughter Miao Xiufeng with Rong Yuanhang, but now, when he saw Jiang Yanyun's face of rejecting Yu Qianli, he suddenly didn't have the courage to bring it up! Ruan Maoqi can see that Jiang Yanyun's cultivation is only at the level of a martial artist's mid-level, but people have the Black King Tiger as a pet beast, and this value is completely different!
If he took the liberty of proposing to let Miao Xiufeng marry Rong Yuanhang as a concubine, what would Jiang Yanyun's reaction be? So. The three of them were speechless for a while, and Miao Xiufeng was even more restless.
"Ahem, ahem," Ruan Maoqi coughed dryly and said, "Young Master Rong, there is something I want to ask you to help with, I don't know ......?" ”
"Oh? What is it? Rong Yuanhang did not directly agree.
"It'......" Ruan Maoqi was a little embarrassed to speak, but he still said it.
It turned out that a few days ago, Rong Yuanhang had a crested mountain eagle. was known by the Miao brothers and sisters, but Miao Renfeng couldn't help but tell his uncle Ruan Maoqi. Ruan Maoqi listened. He was also on his mind.
He knew that the highest level of his sect just needed a crested mountain eagle to go to a certain place. In order to invite merit, he told the story of the incident. As a result, as soon as the above heard it, he came over to negotiate with Rong Yuanhang.
"You mean. Are they going to the black and white world? Rong Yuanhang raised his eyebrows! glanced at Miao Renfeng, and said in his heart that he was really troublesome, it seems that everything will have to be hidden and tucked in the future, and it is best not to expose it if it is not necessary. lest anyone be worried.
"Yes." Ruan Maoqi nodded calmly.
"The black and white world is too far away!" Rong Yuanhang had just returned from there, and he knew that the black and white realm was close to the land of the Eastern Continent, and it was very dangerous, and from the air, he could see the existence of dinosaurs and other ancient creatures. Listening to Uncle Zixing, there are also very powerful creatures such as divine beasts inside.
"I'm sorry, I can't go!" The other party wants him to bring people over, but he himself is a mud bodhisattva, how can he be willing to go?
"Don't, Young Master Rong, don't be busy refusing first!"
Ruan Maoqi boasted about Haikou in front of the top leaders of the sect, how could he be willing to give up? He continued: "Listen to me first, but there's not much risk. It's just to take a person back and forth twice, without your hands, and even people will guarantee your safety! And, do you know what the pay is? - Three-Tailed Sky Fox! A fifth-level growth beast! ”
"Three-tailed Sky Fox? No way! Rong Yuanhang's eyes widened. The three-tailed sky fox He had heard that this kind of sky fox was the same as the little daughter-in-law's thunder tiger, both of which were growth-oriented, but they were better than each other. When the sky fox grows to nine tails, it is a divine beast. Like Cailong, her combat power is extraordinary and she can transform into a human, but she is a peerless beauty. Of course, this is a long process.
The three-tailed sky fox is a fifth-level spirit beast, and its value alone can be sold for astronomical sums! Rong Yuanhang was moved, this spirit beast can be contracted to the relatives around him, or he can use it himself. But he knew that things must not be simple, who would be willing to pay such a big price, just to go to the black and white world?
"Senior Ruan, who are you talking about?" Rong Yuanhang asked with some interest.
This time, Ruan Maoqi was silent, and he thought for a long time before saying, "This...... Rong Gongzi, the identity of the other party will definitely tell you, but not now. ”
Rong Yuanhang sneered in his heart, and said slightly angrily: "Then forget it, just assume that Senior Ruan didn't say it, I won't take this risk." ”
"This ......" Ruan Maoqi was stunned for a moment, he paused and said: "Okay, in fact, they are the two saints of my Four Holy Mansions - Le Zhengyueqin and Li Sandao, the two holy masters. This time I went to the white and black realm to find an elixir that could be made into a dust-breaking pill. ”
The so-called Dust Breaking Pill is an auxiliary supreme elixir that breaks through the divine level by the Holy Rank, and this elixir can be said to be a priceless treasure for martial artists, but Rong Yuan doesn't know it yet. He thought about it for a moment and said, "This is ...... I'll have to discuss it with my uncle before making a decision. ”
"When can Gongzi Rong give me an answer?"
"Within three days!"
"Can you hurry up, this matter is a bit urgent." Ruan Maoqi was very anxious, his boss was still waiting for a reply, if Rong Yuanhang didn't agree, it was estimated that he would have to use it.
Rong Yuanhang insisted: "It will take three days at the earliest." To tell you the truth, even if I say yes, there are still many things that have to be taken care of, and it will take time. ”
"Okay. Then I'll wait for you," Ruan Maoqi said solemnly: "Young Master Rong, please take this matter to heart." Remember! (To be continued......)
