Chapter 11 The Woman in White
Murphy's face darkened.
"It's a bit expensive, isn't it? Murphy didn't smile, "Keep your dog's eyes open and see who I am?"
The boss hurriedly nodded: "You are the young city lord, so naturally you will not owe us money." ”
"That's not nonsense, although Lao Tzu is a scoundrel...... Phew, that's a little bit of a thing, but when did I ever owe money to others? What good is it for me to blackmail you poor ghosts, even if I want to blackmail money, I am also arrogant about the money of the richest man in Syracuse, and it has something to do with you. Lao Tzu is a person with a bottom line, do you understand the bottom line? bottom line! bottom line! bottom line!" Every time he said a bottom line, he slapped the boss on the forehead, and the expression on his face was very hateful that iron could not be made of steel.
The boss could only nod yes, and didn't dare to say anything else.
In fact, he really didn't want to take on Mo Fei's business. It's not because of money, just like Murphy said, he never owes anyone money, what the boss cares about is Murphy's vision.
The young city lord's vision is not an ordinary poison, I still remember that a few days ago, in order to create a hairpin for his sister, he pulled two casting masters to build it. And the young city lord did not allow any flaws, it was to the point of nitpicking, the hairpins were returned one after another, and the two casting masters were tossed for six or seven days without closing their eyes.
Afterwards, the two masters left Aoxue City one after another, and according to legend, the two left without even looking back, supporting each other and walking like flying, as if starting a grand escape.
After the news of this matter spread, the shops in the entire Aoxue City held an unprecedentedly grand meeting, and after the meeting, everyone joined forces to take anyone's business, except for the young city lord's business.
Especially those shops with the support of casters, alchemists, etc., when they see this young master Mo, it is called a snake and scorpion.
The fat boss was unlucky this time and was caught off guard by this "evil star".
"If you know, go down, get it done as soon as possible, and send it to the house when you're done. After Mo Fei finished speaking, he dug out his ears, and didn't give the boss time to object, so he pulled Ye Lingyu and walked out the door.
The boss's face was green in the back, he wanted to refuse, but he didn't have the guts, he wanted to discuss it with Mo Fei, Mo Fei had already gone away.
After walking out for a distance, Ye Lingyu broke free from his hand: "No merit, I have no reason to accept your kindness." ”
"Well, what's the feeling? I rely on my parents at home and my friends when I go out. Who doesn't have one or two reliable brothers? I'll help you when you're in trouble, and when I'm in trouble, you won't be able to help me, what's your hypocrisy?" Mo Fei slapped Ye Lingyu on the back and grinned: "Let's go, I know a good restaurant, let's drink together." ”
Ye Lingyu hesitated for a moment, but still followed. Although he didn't want to owe favors to others in vain, Mo Fei's bold personality was quite appetizing to Ye Lingyu, and he didn't feel disgusted when he looked at Mo Fei again.
In addition, Ye Lingyu also wanted to inquire about something from him. Dantian's problem has not been solved yet, he only has two years, two years is not a long time. Mo Fei was so enthusiastic now, and he was the young city lord of Aoxue City, so he might be able to ask for some clues from his mouth.
Mo Fei took Ye Lingyu to the front, and Mo Xiaoyu also followed behind the two of them. A group of entourages were sent away by Murphy, the reason is that he wants to drink and eat meat with his brother, my brother doesn't talk much, he looks very boring, he definitely doesn't like a lot of people, and there are few idle people to join in the fun, so as not to disturb his brother's Yaxing.
Ye Lingyu has nothing to say about this, for people like Mo Fei, refuting him is just a waste of saliva, and Ye Lingyu really doesn't like crowded places.
Led by Mo Fei, the group walked through the bustling streets and gradually walked towards the middle of nowhere.
"Don't look at the remoteness of the place, but the store really has good wine, and I only found out by chance. Murphy said triumphantly, as if showing off his treasures.
However, Ye Lingyu also gradually realized that as they walked along the way, the aroma of the wine did become stronger and stronger. As the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, which is the current situation.
Ye Lingyu had been helping in the tavern before, and he also had a considerable degree of knowledge of wine. Just by smelling the fragrance, he was sure that even if it was kept in the whole city, it would be considered a first-class wine.
After walking for a while, a small two-story building appeared in the sight of the two.
The restaurant is surrounded by unknown trees, and the trees are full of flowers, and it is autumn, and the breeze blows, and the flowers and leaves are falling one after another.
In front of the restaurant, a person dressed as a small servant was standing at the door chatting in every way, and when he saw someone coming, he quickly got up to greet him.
"The guest officer is drinking, there is good wine and meat, please come inside." ”
"If you don't have good wine, I'm not happy to come, let's go up to the second floor. Mo Fei pointed upstairs: "Drink good wine, how can you not be accompanied by the scenery?"
"Okay, you three upstairs, please. The little servant respectfully led them upstairs.
The second floor is the appearance of a pavilion, with no walls on all sides, only a circle of wood-carved guardrails, sitting upright and drinking, and the surrounding scenery can be seen in full view.
The three of them sat down at a table in the corner, and Mo Fei's fingers tapped lightly on the edge of the table: "Five catties of wine, a few more side dishes, whatever is delicious." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly glanced at Mo Xiaoyu with his afterglow, and added, "Another pot of fragrant tea." ”
When Mo Xiaoyu heard this, he immediately stopped: "Why can't I drink, my brother is a stingy ghost." ”
Protest is protest, but Mo Fei ignored her at all, and slapped her lightly on the head, making the back chong Xiaowu nod: "That's all." ”
"I'll be here soon, and the guest officer will sit down for a while. The little guy shouted happily and hurriedly retreated.
Ye Lingyu sat opposite Mo Fei, and Mo Xiaoyu sat next to him.
When he was in Fengcheng, Ye Lingyu didn't eat, and he was also busy cultivating for two days on the road, although it was okay for a martial artist not to eat for a few days, but after smelling the aroma of wine, he still felt hungry.
And just as he was thinking about how to eat a good meal, he suddenly smelled the faint fragrance of orchids.
He looked in the direction of the smell. Suddenly, in another corner of the second floor, a girl in a white robe sat quietly.
The girl held the wine glass lightly, and the petals beside her fell one after another, like snowflakes.
The woman wears a white hat with a bamboo-woven hat and a white veil hanging from the brim. The white gauze blocked the face, and the face could not be seen clearly, but what could be seen was only plain white clothes, outlining the graceful curves of the whole body. The white neck, the full chest, the slender waist that Yingying holds, and the slender hands stretched out are like white grease.
And at the moment when Ye Lingyu looked at the girl, a breeze blew gently. The light yarn on the brim of the hat flutters in the wind, floating slightly. At that moment, Ye Lingyu saw the beautiful appearance under the hat.
He was about sixteen years old, which is the age at which his appearance changed from youthful to mature. With the thousands of green threads pouring down like a waterfall. There is coldness in the beauty, and the eyes do not seem to be contaminated with the slightest mortal atmosphere. Qiushui is a god and jade is a bone, and perhaps only four words can describe her beauty.
Ye Lingyu had never seen such a beautiful person, but that glance as arranged by fate made him deeply fascinated by this woman.
For a while, Ye Lingyu's eyes couldn't be moved, staring in the direction of the woman, stunned for a while.
"Hey, what's wrong?" it was Murphy's voice that brought him back to his senses.
Mo Fei also followed Ye Lingyu's gaze, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "I just said that I went up to the second floor to see the scenery, this scenery is really unusual." ”
The light veil on the hood obscured the woman's face. Mo Fei naturally didn't see it, but the proud figure alone was enough to make a man's blood gush.
Mo Fei blinked his eyes and glanced at Ye Lingyu, his voice was a little cheap: "Could it be that you are moved by your heart, brother?"
"Ahem. Ye Lingyu coughed lightly twice, his old face flushed, "Don't talk nonsense, life is just a stinky skin." ”
"What are you pretending to be high-minded? In just one life, you can't make yourself like an ascetic. Sitting in the midst of thousands of flowers but not moving, that kind of life still has the meaning of fart. Mo Fei snorted at Ye Lingyu, with a thief smile on his face, "If you mean that, brother, I can help you sweep the formation." ”
"Good intentions. Ye Lingyu picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Men don't have a good thing. Mo Xiaoyu sat on the side, listening to the conversation between the two, with a cold face and said angrily.
"You little girl, what do you know?" Mo Fei didn't look at his sister, but stared at Ye Lingyu's face: "Then again, I still don't know what your name is, brother?"
"Ye Lingyu. Ye Lingyu reported his name.
"Then I'll call you Lao Ye in the future. Murphy laughed.
While talking and laughing, Xiao Er had already run up from downstairs with a plate of dishes.
What Mo Fei said was that there was something delicious to eat, and Xiao Er was not ambiguous, except for a few large pots of wine, various dishes were placed on a full table. If the table was bigger, maybe there would be a dozen more plates.
Mo Fei didn't care about these little things, picked up the flask, and poured a few sips into his mouth without any image.
Ye Lingyu also toasted with him.
After more than a dozen glasses of wine, both of them were a little drunk. Although the wine was intoxicating, Ye Lingyu did not forget his purpose.
This time, I came with Mo Fei, mainly to inquire about him about the punishment of heaven. See if you can find a way to solve your own hidden dangers.
The two of them pushed the glass and changed the glass, chatting, and after the wine was halfway through, Ye Lingyu finally seized the opportunity.
"Mo Shao, a person like you who was born in a powerful family must also be well-read. The place where you stand is higher, and you are exposed to more things than ordinary people. ”
"Well-read, who is me? Don't scorn me. For people like me, learning those things is no different than being sinned. Mo Fei's cheeks were a little red from the wine, "I still remember that the old man in the family used to find me a teacher, and those teachers gave me what poetry and book etiquette, I told them, you are all, people in the rivers and lakes, the only righteous word." They taught me morality and ethics, and I didn't tell them anything about enmity. When the gentlemen tell me that they are warm, I tell them that their children are warm. They taught me the gossip of the Strange Scriptures, and I studied doing business and making money below. In the end, I didn't learn much, and the angry teachers went away in batches. ”
Ye Lingyu couldn't help but laugh a little, and hurriedly stuffed two mouthfuls of food into his mouth: "Actually, it has nothing to do with these, I just want to ask you, how much do you know about heavenly punishment?"
When Ye Lingyu spoke, he deliberately put his tone very casually, just like a casual chat at the wine table. He wanted to hide the true purpose of his inquiry. And Mo Fei and Mo Xiaoyu didn't care about it.
But what he didn't realize was that when he said the words "heavenly punishment", the woman in white who had been sitting in the corner, holding the wine glass, trembled slightly.
