Chapter 86: The Upcoming Auction
"Oh~ I brought you the eggs. Midori ran back with two eggs wrapped in a towel. handed it to Jiang Xiaobai and said.
"What's going on in the house?" Jiang Xiaobai took the egg, it was still warm when it was opened, and he slowly applied it to his eye sockets and asked.
"Is it okay?" said Midori crisply.
Jiang Xiaobai looked at the patrol team in the courtyard that walked by from time to time. It can be concluded that something must have happened. But looking at the little girl's expression, she shouldn't be able to get in touch with that layer of information.
"Go about your business, don't stare at me here. Jiang Xiaobai saw that the little girl had been looking at herself, and said to her.
"Well, you forgot. I am the young master, and I have been specially sent to serve you. Little Green said playfully.
At the same time, he snatched the egg and skillfully pressed it to Jiang Xiaobai's eye socket. Scrolling non-stop.
"I can do it myself. Jiang Xiaobai said, going to get the eggs. Although the little girl's technique is more comfortable.
"Don't move, the eggs will break in a moment. Midori said. With one hand, press the back of Jiang Xiaobai's head. With the other hand, rub it gently.
Jiang Xiaobai could feel that the little girl's fingers were a little cold. No longer refuse, enjoy the treatment of my brother.
After a while, the temperature of the eggs cooled. Midori stopped, put the egg on the table and asked, "How is it?"
Jiang Xiaobai blinked, feeling much better. Seeing the little girl's concerned look, she said, "Thank you Xiaolu, it's all right." ”
"Well, what are you going to do next?" asked Midori excitedly. It's completely childlike.
"Practice, do you want to watch it here?" Jiang Xiaobai said.
Improving his strength is something he needs to accomplish urgently. But he didn't know how to arrange this little girl. You can't hang out with her.
"Do you want to practice, then I'll go out and mend my clothes. Xiao Lu picked up the side of the bed, and Jiang Xiaobai changed into the torn clothes and said.
Wait for the little girl to leave. Jiang Xiaobai took it easy, peeled off the eggs on the table and ate them. Open the knife sheet and record the moves. Then he sat on the bed and began to practice the "Thirteen Postures of Self-cultivation".
At noon, Zhang Hui did not come to ask Jiang Xiaobai to eat. Instead, he sent someone directly to bring the meal to the guest room.
This time, there is a lot more weight than before. The little girl also happened to come in at this time. was pulled by Jiang Xiaobai and sat down at the table together.
A meal was eaten by the two of them. Of course, most of them fell into Jiang Xiaobai's belly.
I saw the people tidy up the table. Jiang Xiaobai was ready to continue exercising. Xiao Lu also followed the person who delivered the meal and left together.
Jiang Xiaobai first played a set of long punches and eliminated his appetite. Then continue to practice the "Thirteen Postures of Self-cultivation". With this set of exercises, he is already familiar with the first six styles. When I was practicing the seventh pose, I could already feel the feeling of qi occasionally.
The patrols of Zhangfu are also becoming more and more numerous. Zhang Hui has never appeared. In the past two days, only subordinates have come to deliver food to Jiang Xiaobai on time.
Until the morning of the third day, Zhang Hui took two subordinates to Jiang Xiaobai's residence.
"Brother Jiang, are you still used to it in the past two days?" Zhang Hui shouted before he entered the door.
Jiang Xiaobai had just finished washing, and Xiaolu was going out with the washing water. The door was opened, and Jiang Xiaobai saw Zhang Hui.
"The food was good, nothing was unaccustomed. Jiang Xiaobai said and invited the other party in.
For the past two days, he has been served with good food and drink. There are also medicinal baths to soak in at night. The plus sign behind the qi and blood is visibly red with the naked eye.
"Well, I'm here to call you today, let's go to the auction together. Zhang Hui explained the intention.
"Okay, I just happened to go and see it too. Jiang Xiaobai said. He came to Zhang's Mansion for a few days, and he also felt that it was time to go out and go around.
"Let's go have breakfast first. Someone made a good offering today. Zhang Hui said happily.
"Can I take someone out with me?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.
He saw the little girl not far away, looking at him with blank eyes.
"Yes, just take it with you when you go out. Didn't I bring two of them with me? Zhang Hui said knowingly.
"Little Green, you go to dinner, and wait for us at the door in a while. Let's go out and have a look. Jiang Xiaobai said to Xiao Lu.
"Okay~" The little girl was about to jump. However, seeing Zhang Hui staring at himself, he tidied up his clothes and replied quietly: "Okay." ”
The two of them came again, the same dining room they had had been living in before. The head of the Zhang family and Zhang Yun were already sitting inside.
"Xiao Jiang is here, sit down, there will be good things to eat. The head of the house greeted with a smile.
Wait for the four of them to sit down. The chef walked out with a huge cold cut.
When the lid was opened, a thick white mist wafted from inside. After the white mist faded, four snow lotuses were revealed on the plate.
"This is an iceberg snow lotus. After cold steaming, it did not destroy its original form. Eating it has the effects of nourishing the skin, strengthening the body, and promoting longevity. The name of this dish is "Iceberg Guest". The chef divided the four snow lotuses into plates, placed them in front of the four of them, and introduced.
"Good meaning~ As a guest, Xiaojiang, you have to eat more. The head of the house said.
"Okay, thank you, master. Jiang Xiaobai thanked him.
This dish is very unusual just by looking at the appearance. The whole snow lotus is crystal clear, and there is a slight mist on it. There are also dew drops rolling on the petals.
"Good thing~" Zhang Hui praised. Everyone began to eat quietly.
Jiang Xiaobai was also very interested. His special enamel spoon clicked on the snow lotus. Snow lotus is like cream, missing a piece.
The entrance of the snow lotus is only a hint of coldness. Very smooth. Jiang Xiaobai tasted it for a while and swallowed it.
The devouring skill was activated, and Jiang Xiaobai could feel the energy absorbed by his body.
While he was taking his second bite. The little ghost in the table, his eyes flashed. In the absorbed energy, a trace of black gas was extracted, which was absorbed by the mouth of the little ghost head.
Jiang Xiaobai didn't notice it at first. It wasn't until halfway through the meal that he noticed the little ghost's head and flashing eyes.
There is something wrong with this iceberg snow lotus. Jiang Xiaobai's first thought was this.
He looked up and saw that Zhang Hui was almost finished. Zhang Yun tasted a few bites, but then didn't eat it, probably unappetizing.
After the head of the house also ate a third, he put the snow lotus aside. The possibility of the Zhang family doing tricks is zero.
Jiang Xiaobai estimated that Snow Lotus would not be able to hurt herself. Took another big bite. This time, he clearly saw the black qi separated from the ghost head.
"Zhang Hui, how do you feel?" Jiang Xiaobai asked in a low voice.
"It's slippery, cool and comfortable. Zhang Hui finished the last bite and said with satisfaction.
"No... Uncomfortable feeling?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.
"Yes, it's a little cold. I'm going to have a bowl of hot soup. Zhang Hui said, serving himself a bowl of hot soup.
"What's wrong with Xiao Jiang?" the head of the house asked. When they are eating, they generally do not speak.
"Nothing. Jiang Xiaobai saw that the three of them were staring at him, and said embarrassedly. I thought to myself, maybe I was overthinking.
After breakfast, the head of the house said that there was still something to do, so he would not go to the auction. Zhang Hui took his sister and Jiang Xiaobai and walked outside the house. There were also six errand runners behind him.
Coming to the gate of Zhang's mansion, Xiao Lu stood here and waited. Jiang Xiaobai called her, and the group walked towards the financial building.
"How's it going?" asked Wang Tong in a small dark room in Wang's mansion.
"Eat, eat. The villain vouches for his life. A person knelt at Wang Tong's feet and said tremblingly.
"You'd better not mess it up. Otherwise, your life won't be worth a few dollars. Go down and get the reward!" Wang Tong said proudly.
"Yes~ Thank you, sir. The man at his feet said, kowtowing, and then exited the room.
"Just let him go, in case the news ......" Waiting for the man to leave, Wang Jun walked out from the side and said.
"Hmph, go~ It's just the way to Hades. Wang Tong said with a gloomy face.
"You're going to kill him?" said Wang Jun in surprise.
"He's worthless. Okay, let's go to the auction and block them. Today is the day of the demise of Zhangfu. Zhang Hui said.
