Chapter 204: Miss
Magic City.
Inside a maid-themed café.
Three young people in trendy short sleeves are sitting in a large box, each with a cup of coffee in front of them, and in the center of the table, there are many game boxes containing board game props.
The atmosphere in the box was very dull, and none of the three people present were willing to speak.
A young man with black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose keeps checking the time on his watch.
However, his face did not show any anxious look, as if he was just repeating a certain action boringly.
The three men had been sitting here, and as time passed, the coffee placed in front of them gradually became colder, but they didn't seem to have the desire to taste it, as if they were waiting for someone to arrive.
After another half hour, the three people sitting there looked up at the same time.
Eyes focused on the door of the box.
Their eyes seemed to be able to see through the solid wood gate and see the outside world.
Suddenly, a dull sound of footsteps entered the ears of the three of them. It seems to be the sound of high heels stepping on the carpet.
Soon, the voice was gone.
Immediately afterwards, there was a knock on the door.
Before the three of them could speak, the closed solid wooden door was pushed open from the outside, and a young girl in a maid's long skirt walked in with a huge tray in front of her.
As soon as the girl walked in, she felt that the room temperature in the box was a little wrong, and she couldn't help but shiver because of her thin clothes. The strange girl turned her head, only to realize that the heating had been turned off.
"Three masters, this is a small snack specially prepared for you, please use it slowly."
The girl carefully placed the tray on the table, and she took out the porcelain plate containing the small snacks.
In the process, the young girl apparently saw the coffee that had not yet been tasted in front of the three of them, so she asked in a very frightened tone, "Master, did you do something wrong?" ”
The three men looked at each other and shook their heads, and the youngest of them asked, "We just want to know, when will you arrive?" ”
When the maid heard this, she immediately reacted and replied: "Our store manager does not provide companion services, if there is any need, the three masters can talk to the little girl!" If the number of people is not enough, there are many girls to choose from! ”
The young man seemed to want to say something, but the man sitting to his left waved to stop him, and he took a jade pendant from his pocket and threw it into the tray in front of him.
"You just need to show this jade pendant to your store manager, and she will naturally understand what it means."
The maid Xiao Liang looked down and just wanted to continue speaking, but she saw that the faces of the three of them were a little terrifying, so she subconsciously nodded and agreed: "Our store manager is not in the store now, and when she comes back, Xiao Liang will definitely transfer this jade pendant to the store manager, I don't know what other needs the three masters have?" ”
"No, you can go out first." The young man waved his hand and sent the other man away.
The little girl bit his lower lip with his teeth, bent down and saluted, and then left.
After the door of the box was closed by the maid, the man who threw out the jade pendant stretched out his hand to support his forehead, his face full of helplessness.
"Yao Ziming, what do you say the eldest lady is busy with? I still won't show up ......"
"Hao Yangping, don't blame me for not reminding you, this is the eldest lady's territory, you complain so much, be careful that the eldest lady hears it, and wants to clean you up. You see how honest Song Zimo is, staring at his watch all the time. If you're bored, I suggest you eat and keep your mouth shut. ”
Hao Yangping shrugged his shoulders, put his right hand on his cheek, and said, "Yao Ziming, when can you leave here and go back to the sect?" I think it's actually quite boring to stay outside, my cultivation is slow, and there are too many distracting thoughts. ”
Yao Ziming put his hands on the table and said, "I still want to ask you, when can you leave the magic capital?" As an Ombudsman, you have been with me for half a year, and you don't have to go anywhere else? ”
Hao Yangping was suddenly choked by Yao Ziming's words, he was speechless, his eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were shaking. After a while, Hao Yangping, who found that he couldn't refute it, had to take the already cold coffee in front of him depressedly, bring it to his mouth, and take a sip.
"Poof......
As soon as the coffee was entered, Hao Yangping's face tightened and he squirted out directly.
"Why does coffee smell like this? Bittersweet and bitter? ”
Yao Ziming saw Hao Yangping's appearance, and decisively moved his seat, wanting to distance himself from Hao Yangping. His face was full of disgust.
"Senior brother, if you can't get used to drinking, I advise you not to drink, after I drank a glass last time, I haven't recovered for a few days." Song Zimo, who had not spoken, finally spoke, he pointed to the coffee in front of him, and said, "This thing is really not ordinary unpleasant, it's better for us to drink tea honestly." ”
Hao Yangping listened to his junior brother's words, directly put down the cup in his hand, put his hands behind his head, and leaned on the sofa.
Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the earth, and everything around is reflected in a golden yellow.
The clock hands are ticking and ticking as the sun sets and night falls. The door of the box was pushed open from the outside again.
A long, straight-eyed black lady dressed in a traditional palace maid's outfit with her hands in the pockets of her apron in front of her walked briskly in. After the three people present saw her appearance, they immediately stood up, bowed and saluted, "Miss." ”
The young woman nodded, pulled out her chair, and sat down. As her beautiful eyes swept over the filth on the table, her brow furrowed, and a look of displeasure appeared on her face.
The three of them were taken aback, and Hao Yangping's heart became even more worried.
However, the eldest lady didn't seem to mean to accuse, she took out the jade pendant from her apron pocket, threw it to Hao Yangping, and said, "What are you looking for me?" ”
Hao Yangping hurriedly took the jade pendant and said, "Miss, do you know about the emperor's tomb found in the Alxa Desert?" ”
The eldest lady nodded, she reached out and took off the glasses on the bridge of her nose, her lips opened, and a cold voice came out of her mouth, "You came to me because of this matter?" I've received orders from my father to get ready to go, and the three of you just do your job and don't meddle around. ”
Hao Yang's face suddenly froze, and he felt that the eldest lady's words were aimed at him.
"Miss, we have got the latest information, Master Qing Shui of Wanshou Cihua Zen Temple, entrusted by others, is also preparing to go to the desert." Yao Ziming immediately helped Hao Yangping explain.
"Old monk Qingshui? Didn't Wanshou Cihua Temple give up this search? The eldest lady's cold face finally showed a hint of surprise.
"Miss, in addition to this, there is another news that you should be very interested in." Hao Yangping did not show weakness, and was ready to contribute the information at the bottom of his box.
"What?"
The eldest lady clasped her hands, leaned back on the seat, and stared at Hao Yangping with her eyes, as if there was a feeling that if you don't satisfy me, I won't let you leave upright.
"The owner of this long sword, the female college student you know, is now in the tomb. All the information was revealed through her hands one by one. ”
Hao Yangping spread out his palm, and the thousand-year-old lightning strike peach wood sword suddenly appeared.
"You mean, Jiang Huo is also there?"
The young woman was a little surprised this time.
