Chapter 13: The Inn's Conflict
Five days later, at dusk, the sun's residual temperature had not yet dissipated, the vast sky was as blue as a wash, and in the western sky, a brilliant sunset burned in a brilliant sunset, which infected the whole town in a golden pink halo.
Looking at the not very lively bazaar and the bustling crowd not far away, Long Teng and Tang Jue couldn't help but smile with relief - Shilipo has finally arrived. In the past few days, the two of them have overcome many difficulties to get out of the jungle, and the various hardships in which needless to say are that there are no roads at all in some places, and they need to climb through with the help of ropes or thick vines; Some places are full of snakes and insects, but fortunately, along the way, Tang Jue collected various herbs to make crude but practical insect repellents.
Both of them are in extremely poor condition now, the clothes on their bodies have long been colorless, tattered, and smelly, and they just want to find a hotel to take a comfortable shower, eat some hot meals, and sleep well.
Naturally, there is not a decent hotel in Shilipo, but as the only way to pass through the ancient tea horse road in the past, and now it is a tourist attraction, there are still a few very good antique inns here.
Long Teng chose a nearby house called Yueyun Lou to live, the front desk waiter saw that the two of them were discouraged, quite unwelcome, Long Teng had to explain: "I got lost with my girlfriend in the forest, and walked for several days before I came out. ”
The waiter didn't doubt this, because young people like them who were idle and went to explore in the jungle had dozens of dollars a year. After checking Long Teng's documents, he opened a room for them, originally Long Teng wanted to open two rooms, but because Tang Jue's situation was extremely poor, he couldn't rest assured, and after thinking about it, he still opened a standard room.
Placing Tang Jue on a bed, Long Teng was about to go out to buy her a set of clothes and order some food in the restaurant, when he heard Tang Jue's weak voice say: "You go to take a bath first, I'll make an order when I go back, and you can help me buy some medicine by the way." ”
When Long Teng heard her say this, he nodded: "I'll help you get a pen and paper." ”
Taking advantage of the time when Long Teng took a bath, Tang Jue wrote more than 20 flavors of medicine in one breath, several of which were quite precious, and she wrote them just with the mentality of trying them out, who knew that half an hour, Long Teng not only bought her clothes, shoes and socks, but also bought three or four kinds of extremely rare medicinal materials, which shows that although this place is small, it is a mountain to eat from the mountains, and there are still a lot of precious medicinal materials.
Seeing her blindly checking the medicinal materials, Long Teng couldn't help but complain: "You are so ruthless, you will slaughter me for more than 20,000 yuan at once including the processing fee!" Thankfully, the pharmacy can be used by credit card! ”
Looking up and seeing him gritting his teeth, Tang Jue smiled weakly, and playfully stuck out his tongue: "I know that Brother Long is the best for me, you are my reborn parents, I will sell myself as a slave in my next life, and make you a cow and a horse......" said on his mouth, but his bright eyes stared at a few precious medicinal materials ground into powder, full of joy.
"You're poor, you!" Long Teng touched his nose, sighed and said, "Yes, just shout at you, Brother Long, I will consider myself unlucky!" ”
Tang Jue grinned, but secretly slandered in his heart: "Stingy ghost, I saved your life, and now I feel distressed to spend some money!" Although she thought so, she knew that if there was no Long Teng, she didn't know how many times she had died, and she really owed him.
By the time Tang Jue had checked the medicinal herbs, Long Teng had already taken the plastic basin he bought and put the bath water for her. Tang Jue then instructed him to put some medicinal herbs into the water, and wrapped some more and asked the kitchen to help boil them, while she took off her clothes and soaked them in the water.
The most affected thing these days is her feet, although the original owner of this body is a fool, but the whole body is white and delicate, like clotted fat, unlike she used to run in the mountains and forests, with rough skin and thick flesh. The mountain road is not easy to walk, all kinds of hardships, running for a few days, the embroidered shoes on her feet have long been tattered, a pair of white and tender little feet are full of overlapping blisters, at this moment into the hot water, immediately burning the fire pain.
However, at this time, she didn't care about these skin injuries, and forcibly closed her eyes and used her internal force to swim around her body.
After a while, a white mist rose above her head, and she was using the ancient method of fighting poison with poison. If someone were there at this time, they would notice that half of her body was red and half of her body was green.
This lasted for more than half an hour, the red gradually forced back to green, and the dark green liquid seeped out from Tang Jue's pores, slowly dyeing the basin of water green, and it was strangely bubbling.
After changing the water three times in this way, he finally forced all the green onto his left arm, and Tang Jue was so exhausted that he couldn't even move his fingers. Lying on the bed and looking at her pale left hand from the crook of her arm to the fingertips, it showed a strange dark green, and these dark green colors were still wriggling, disgusting and inexplicable, she really wanted to cut it off with a knife.
Long Teng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, and exclaimed: "You are so amazing! If only ordinary people had died a long time ago. ”
"Hmm." Tang Jue also agreed with him, if he hadn't absorbed a lot of spiritual energy from that bead, with this little medicine, he was afraid that he would not be able to suppress the poison at all, let alone force it to his left arm. If you look closely now, you will see a bright green halo in the crook of the arm, like a fine jasper bracelet.
Tang Jue looked at his terrifying hand and said in a deep voice: "At most, in three days, this poison will spread again, and the immortals will not be able to save me at that time." She didn't tell Long Teng that from this moment on, the poison would move up inch by inch, and with each move she would start to rot a little from the tip of her left finger, until the poison moved her heart, and her whole body would rot and die.
She finally got this beautiful body, she was really reluctant, and if she died this time, she would not have such good luck to give it up again.
If it weren't for a coincidence, she would never have occupied someone else's body, even if the owner of this body was a fool.
Long Teng looked at her with a worried look on his face and comforted: "Don't worry, since we have reached Shilipo, we will definitely be able to find that person to relieve you." He took the quilt for her, and said, "You rest for a while, I'll go and see if the medicine is ......."
Just as he was about to get up, he heard a knock on the door outside, and Long Teng raised his voice and asked, "Who?" ”
The voice of the waiter came from the door: "Sir, the meal you asked for is ready." ”
Long Teng brought the food in and put it on the small table at the head of the bed, and said to Tang Jue: "You eat first, I'll go see the medicine!" He got up and was about to go out, but he was pulled by Tang Jue: "Don't worry, eat first and then go." Facing Long Teng's puzzled eyes, Tang Jue smiled mysteriously and said in his heart: "Anyway, this medicine is not for me!" ”
After the two of them finished eating, Tang Jue lay on the bed to rest, and Long Teng went to see the medicine. Tipping and carrying the crockpot up, he was confronted by a group of people coming down from the upper floor, and one of them was in a hurry and almost hit him. He raised his eyes and glared at him fiercely. As a major general, he has led troops for many years, and just staring at him like this, he naturally has a coercive momentum, and even the air around him is a little colder.
I don't want the other party to be a woman, but she is still a slim, sexy and hot beauty, wearing only a tight camisole and a pair of short denim shorts at this time, and her skin is a healthy wheat color.
Seeing him staring, the beautiful woman raised her eyebrows and also glared, quite a little aggressive, and shouted: "What are you staring at?" You're still justified if you hit someone! ”
As soon as Long Teng heard that the other party was quite unreasonable, he immediately paused, turned around and looked the girl up and down, with a look of disdain in his eyes: "I've seen unreasonable, I've never seen such unreasonable!" Which mom did you bring it out? ”
"You ......" This girl is usually pampered, and she is already arrogant and arrogant, how can she ever be scolded like this, her face suddenly turned red, and she proudly raised her beautiful chin, and said angrily: "You haven't brushed your teeth for a few days?" Why does your mouth stink so much! ”
Long Teng laughed: "I really let you talk, I really haven't brushed my teeth for a few days." Too lazy to talk nonsense, he turned around and went upstairs.
He was telling the truth, but there was a sense of irony to the girl's ears. Given the swearful bastard he just said, would she just stop there? As soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed Long Teng's sleeve, almost pulled the jar of medicine over, and shouted: "If you don't apologize, you want to leave?" Apologize! ”
Long Teng was really angry this time, he laughed angrily, and his mouth was not forgiving at all: "Why is this?" Men and women don't kiss, let go! In broad daylight, don't bring such a solicitor! ”
"Say what? What to say? Before the beautiful woman could speak, a dark-skinned young man next to her suddenly rushed up and grabbed Long Teng's neckline: "Boy, keep your mouth clean!" Believe it or not, Lao Tzu beat you all over the ground looking for teeth! ”
The dragon turned to one side without a trace, and the young man grabbed the air, slipped on his feet, and stumbled.
"Yo he!" Losing his face in front of his goddess, Zhanfei was very unhappy, and raised his foot and kicked towards Long Teng, "I can't see it, I have some ability!" ”
Long Teng was thinking about Tang Jue, and he shrank back and was about to go upstairs.
Zhanfei kicked in the air, feeling very unhappy, raised his right hand, rubbed his thumb on his nose, rolled up his sleeves, and said: "Ah Li, don't worry, when you get to Feige's land, it's a dragon, and I will also ask him to coil!" ”
After that, he pointed at Long Teng and said arrogantly: "Boy, don't be embarrassed!" Apologize honestly, and the matter is over. ”
Long Teng's life is the most disdainful of this kind of person who is handsome and cool when he sees a woman and steps on someone else's position, not to mention that he is reasonable, even if he ignores it, there is no apology in his dictionary. Don't look at him, he is also very gentle with Tang Jue, but he can only be a little gentle in front of Tang Jue, if this matter was left in the army, he would have kicked the black and thin man in front of him out with one kick.
However, Tang Jue's situation could not be delayed any longer, he had to find the person who could help her surrender as soon as possible, but he didn't want to be ruined because of this stunned young man, so he snorted in his nose, raised his feet and left.
"Hey, why is this? Apologize, won't you? Zhanfei pinched his fingers and clicked.
A big fat man with a beard next to him slammed his shoulders towards Long Teng, and said: "Brother Fei, don't talk nonsense with him, I think this kid is just toasting and not eating and drinking, if you don't give him some color, you don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!" ”
The force of his collision was not small, if it wasn't for Long Teng's feet sliding half a step away, he might have been knocked downstairs by him. The fat man saw Long Teng stumbling back, and immediately triumphant: "Boy, the fat man will let you open your eyes today, and the authentic Baji Boxing will stick to the mountain!" See? His fat body was beaten, and the railing shook a few times.
The lobby manager over there got the notice and hurried over, and when he saw that it was Zhanfei, he hurriedly nodded and handed over the cigarette: "Zhan Ye, I only arrived at two catties of lion's mane mushrooms this afternoon, and I know that you are going to entertain distinguished guests, so I have already asked the kitchen to make it." What else do you think you need to add? ”
Lion's mane mushroom is a traditional famous dish in our country, known for its tender meat, fragrant taste, delicious and delicious, and bear's paw, sea cucumber, shark's fin and become four famous dishes, known as "mountain treasure monkey's head, seafood bird's nest". Although Shilipo is a small place, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, the most important thing is these mountain treasures, so the tourists continue to come all the year round, and most of them are also admiring this point.
