Chapter 16.56 Inventory

Jia Jiu, who was playing chess with Lin Daiyu, was very strange after hearing the waiter's question: "Good and decent, why did you ask about this?" ”

The waiter said: "Okay, it's good to ask the county lord to go with the slave maid." ”

Jia Jiu replied: "No. ”

"County Lord......"

Jia Jiu said: "You can just go back and report like this, just say that the merman has no dreams, and the son of the merman will only dream when the time comes." ”

"When the time comes?"

"Yes. I don't know the specifics. That's all I know. ”

The chamberlain hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Then, when the county lord met the demon in the sea at sea, how did he know that the other party could communicate?" ”

"It was Ning Yuan himself who said it."

"Ning Yuan?"

"This is the name of the giant beast you call the demon of the sea. I just heard him. ”

The eldest princess of Jiashan suddenly said, "I heard that the Taoist chief who was traveling with you also heard the voice?" ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." ”

The eldest princess of Jiashan said: "Is it possible, is that also the son of a merman?" ”

After hearing about the whole story, not only the eldest princess of Jiashan, but even the eldest princess of Lanling and the eldest princess of Changle couldn't help but guess like this.

Jia Jiu said: "At present, there is too little information to judge. After all, for thousands of years, the experience of my Dao disciples has also been on land, and very few people will drive a sea ship into the sea. Not to mention, I've cultivated to the point where I'm with Senior Brother Yu. ”

Hearing Jia Jiu say this, the eldest princess of Jiashan didn't ask. Wait for the chamberlain to leave. Only then did I hear Princess Changle say: "I really didn't expect that this giant beast in the sea still has a name." Gaze into the abyss, gaze into the abyss. It sounds like a lot of sense. Nine girls, you say, who will name this giant beast? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Maybe that giant beast just thinks that the abyss is very quiet, or rather, there is very special food there. For Ning Yuan, there are only two important things, eating and sleeping. ”

A thought flashed through Jia Jiu's heart. It's so fast that it's like a bolt of lightning and you can't catch it at all.

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "Nine girls, that is a strange beast in front of the dragon king. Why did it get into your mouth, it's no different from eating and waiting to die? ”

Jia Jiu smiled and didn't speak.

For him, the dragon king or something. Maybe it's the emperor ribbon fish. As for Ning Yuan's big octopus, when it grows to his size, it has a lifespan of more than 100 years. The big octopus who has lived for a hundred years has done everything he needs to do, and his own strength is strong, and there are even fewer things that can threaten him. What else can such an octopus raw have besides eating and sleeping?

It's just that. In this case, he just said it. Not many people would believe it. So Jia Jiu just smiled and didn't say anything.

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "If you want me to say, the nine girls are really powerful." That giant beast is big? Can a tentacle overturn the newly made sea ship of the Daomen? If I change it, if I encounter such a giant beast in the sea coldly, I will be scared to death, where do you remember to talk to the other party? Nine girls, I heard that this giant beast likes to chase ships, is that true? "The eldest princess of Lanling has specially inquired.

Jia Jiu said: "It's not so much that he likes boats, but rather the nature of octopuses, like bottles and cans and things like that." ”

The eldest princess of Lanling was stunned: "Bottles and cans? ”

Jia Jiu said: "Yes." It's no secret that when people on the seashore want to salvage porcelain from shipwrecks on the seabed, they take advantage of the octopus's habit to tie the octopus to a rope and release the octopus into the sea. When the time is about right, the octopus will be recovered, and the ancient and intact porcelain from the bottom of the sea will be able to be salvaged. For Ning Yuan, the jack jar containing toffee is the same as toffee, which is a gift that makes him feel happy. ”

"That's what Ning Yuan told you?"

"Yes."

Princess Changle said: "It turns out that this octopus is so interesting. ”

"Come out, if you are interested, if you have the opportunity, we will go to sea together to meet. How is it? ”

Princess Changle shook her head again and again: "Let's go, just listen to what you say." If I really came face to face with that giant beast, I am afraid that I would be scared and fainted in the first place. ”

Several people laughed.

Jia Jiu and Lin Daiyu didn't have the heart to go down, so they simply pushed the chess table, and the five of them cleaned their hands and sat down to eat tea together. Coincidentally, venison was sent in front, and Princess Changle said, "Hurry up and change the wine." This is a great wine pairing. ”

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "Although the venison is delicious, but now the weather is still hot, so I roast it and eat it, and the anger is also big, and I have a toothache after eating too much." If you like to eat this, I'll eat beef and mutton. ”

When she was in front of people, the eldest princess of Lanling didn't lack any courtesy, but in front of Jia Jiu, especially after Jia Jiu went to Yuqing Mountain, he didn't put up a fight in front of Jia Jiu anymore. These days, like Princess Changle, he has long called himself me.

The eldest princess of Jiashan changed her name a little earlier than him. When they get along in private, they are all me, mine, and rarely use titles like Bengong and Poor Dao.

When the eldest princess of Jiashan heard this, she also said: "Speaking of which, I'm also afraid of getting angry." Why don't I eat beef with my sister? ”

Jia Jiu, Lin Daiyu, and Princess Changle looked at each other, and finally said: "Let's go, it seems that we can't stand this venison today." ”

Princess Changle said: "No, although this barbecue tastes good, it can only be eaten once or twice in winter." Who is impatient to eat him every day. In the past two days, I have eaten meat every day, and the corners of my mouth have foamed after eating. If you want me to say, it's better to ask those imperial chefs to stir-fry two side dishes quietly and boil another pot of soup, then it will be good. ”

The eldest princess of Lanling and the eldest princess of Jiashan both said that they were okay, and the attendants on the side had already run in small steps and went to inform them.

After a short time, I saw a group of palace maids coming in with food boxes.

The eldest princess of Lanling pointed to a soup and said, "Nine girls, you see, this is still the dish that your family presented when Concubine Xiande was in the old days. You see if it's authentic. ”

Jia Jiu saw that it was just a different shape of cat ear soup printed in a mold.

"Your Highness the Princess. When Concubine Xiande was provincial, our family had already been separated, and he was not from our family. He said. Jia Jiu also smiled, "When I saw this soup, I remembered the time when I just broke up." At that time, my father and my brother were two boys in my family, and there were many things in the family, and the housekeepers in the family were also unreliable, so my father took my brother to take care of the family business himself. Every day I am so busy that my feet don't touch the ground. Although it is impossible for the family to lose the food of his father and brother, at that time, the family was very chaotic. The kitchen is either unstaffed or not stocked. At that time, I had just learned to feed for a long time, because I was afraid of wasting ingredients. The dismantled chicken bones, duck bones, and beef bones are boiled into soup. Resting directly on the tea stove. Simmer over low heat. When there is no fire in the kitchen, I will print some cat ears with molds, boil them with hot water, take them out, and then pour ready-made soup and chopped green onions, and send them to my father and brother. You don't need to use a knife, and it's very convenient. Later, after the provincial relatives ended, I heard that such a dish was also delivered there. I was stunned for a while. ”

Princess Changle said: "It turns out that this dish was originally thought of by you. ”

Jia Jiu said: "What did I come up with. Isn't this how ordinary people eat? It's just that ordinary people can't eat white noodles at home. This dish, for them, is not so much a dish as a staple food. Moreover, the common people do not have so many side dishes, let alone the soup made from chicken, duck, beef and mutton. They all use a little bit of oil, a little soy sauce, even a little salt, and a handful of wild vegetables to deal with it. Where are we so particular. ”

Princess Changle said: "Not really. We have one or twenty side dishes here. ”

The eldest princess of Lanling and the eldest princess of Jiashan looked at the table full and laughed.

After eating the cat's ear soup, rinsing their mouths and cleaning their faces, the five of them sat down to eat tea and talk.

Princess Changle said: "Recently, I don't like to go to my mother's back anymore. ”

The eldest princess of Lanling hurriedly asked why.

Princess Changle said: "My aunt lives outside the palace, so naturally there is no problem. It's a pity that I live in the palace. The queen mother is naturally excellent. But there are a few young concubines who are extremely annoying, and always mention the matter of children intentionally or unintentionally. A few even hit me on the head, not staying in their own palace, and deliberately running all the way to the north palace to meet the main palace. Is Hongu that stupid? ”

Princess Changle was obviously angry, and even the word "Bengong" was brought out.

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "This kind of thing, just get used to it." ”

"Aunt Huang!"

The eldest princess of Lanling said: "That's how they all came. It's not just you, you ask your Aunt Jiashan, haven't you also experienced this kind of thing? At that time, my father was in power, even though we were already widowed, and some people saw that my father took pity on the two of us, so they intentionally or unintentionally mentioned some young talents in front of me and Jiashan. Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of your jokes, those young talents, who say that they are strong in martial arts, can't pull a bow or shoot sheep, say that they are romantic, and the articles they make are pretentious and don't even use allusions correctly. There are also those who look very decent, martial arts or literary talents, but there is a true love in that house, and before he has climbed the high branches, he wants to be virtuous in this palace! I really think of us as if they can handle it at will! Nowadays, the authority of the imperial brother is growing, and the imperial brother loves you the most. Look at it, this is just the beginning! ”

Princess Changle said: "If I had known, I would have gone up to Yuqing Mountain with Jiu Yatou." It also saves these troubles. ”

Jia Jiu took a sip of tea with a smile and said, "That's good." As long as you can stand the hardships on Yuqing Mountain. ”

Princess Changle said: "You don't know you when I do? Don't say that when you are at home, there are thirty or forty people waiting for you, let's just say that when you live in the palace, when is it not the people around me who serve you? Obviously, I brought so many people, but every time I entered the palace, it seemed like a matter of course for someone to arouse me. ”

Before Jia Jiu could answer, the eldest princess of Lanling smiled: "Isn't it a matter of course for the girl to call you?" ”

When Princess Changle heard this, she immediately blushed.

"Let's get down to business. My aunt is a joke! ”

The other four laughed.

Jia Jiu couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, Changle, what serious thing do you want to say." ”

Princess Changle said: "What else do you say? I just remembered it, and I forgot about it now. ”

When Jia Jiu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

The eldest princess of Jiashan said: "I know. Changle must be curious about the marriage of the nine girls. By the way, what does the Daomen say? Taoist or initiates? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Whether it is a Taoist or a fellow practitioner, I will not have it. ”

Princess Changle was taken aback: "Nine girls, doesn't it mean that there have always been only silver-clothed Daozi and silver-clothed Daozi candidates on Yuqing Mountain before, and there are no gold-clothed Daozi and gold-clothed Daozi candidates, which makes many Taoists, including Yan Gongzi, have no initiates and Taoist companions?" You and Lin Yatou are the only two people in the Jinyi Daozi lineage, why are you on Yuqing Mountain? ”

Jia Jiu and Lin Daiyu both laughed.

"Actually, whether it is a Taoist or a fellow practitioner, as long as we are unwilling, the teachers will not force us. Especially me, because I had learned a lot of things, and I had accidents in the previous few cooperations, so the Dao Decree simply ordered that I was not allowed to become a fellow practitioner with others. ”

When Princess Changle heard this, she immediately became nervous: "But, doesn't it mean that the gold-clothed Daozi and the silver-clothed Daozi are cultivators, and this cultivation can be improved?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "It should be said that when the gold-clothed Daozi and the silver-clothed Daozi pair up as fellow practitioners, they can maintain sufficient progress when they comprehend the highest sword array sword canon. But in fact, whether it is a gold-clothed Daozi or a silver-clothed Daozi, as long as the cultivation is enough, as long as the comprehension is deep enough, even if there is only one person, he will be able to use this sword array. The only problem is consumption. ”

Princess Changle stared at Jia Jiu and said, "Have you tried?" ”

Jia Jiu replied, "Yes." But there were problems with the cooperation with several senior brothers, and even the cooperation with Uncle Yan was very unsmooth, and he almost injured others by mistake. ”

Princess Changle said, "Have you ever done it alone?" ”

"I've tried a few times, and they've all worked."

Princess Changle said: "I see. What about Lin girl? ”

Lin Daiyu replied: "My cultivation is not enough, and it is not yet the time to comprehend the Supreme Sword Classic." ”

The eldest princess of Jiashan said: "In this way, the cultivation of the nine girls is even more profound than that of Yan Gongzi. ”

Jia Jiu replied: "To be able to become the youngest candidate for the silver-clothed Daozi, Senior Brother Yan has already proved his ability with his strength. It's just that some things are predestined. ”

The eldest princess of Jiashan said: "It's like saying, your bloodline? ”

Jia Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

The eldest princess of Jiashan said: "So, are you really the queen of the Broken Island King's vein?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "I just happen to have the skill of the Broken Island King Vein. (To be continued.) )
