Tang Jing rolled her eyes, this guy provoked people one by one, but for the sake of them being comrades-in-arms who shared hardships, he was more generous, so he didn't care about him.

"I think you're very similar to Big Sister."

"Oh? How's that like? Xuanyuan Wudao sat up, he held his chin and looked at her intently, is this his daughter-in-law's evaluation of himself in disguise?

"The same moodiness, the same incomprehension, but, all have a warm heart..."Yes, there is a warm heart, if he can be serious, maybe they can become friends a long time ago.

Xuanyuan Wudao didn't know what Tang Jing was thinking, if he knew, he would definitely beat his chest, what he wanted was not to be friends, what he wanted was to be husband and wife!

He reached out and touched the half of the mask on his face, and then said a little playfully, "Do you want to see the face of your husband?" ”

Oh? Tang Jing raised her eyebrows, the mystery of this guy is comparable to that of the eldest sister, and she has always shown people with a mask, since she is willing to take it off today?

"Then you..."

"Who are you?"

A somewhat old voice came, interrupting Tang Jing's words.

What's even worse is that there are two high-perception Tang Men sitting here, and they don't notice that anyone is approaching, they are worthy of being NPCs hidden in the map, and their level and cultivation are not comparable to them.

Tang Jing immediately dragged Xuanyuan Wudao forward and saluted, "I'm sorry, we didn't mean to break into the senior's house, we were just washed here by the underwater whirlpool and got lost, and asked the seniors to show us the way to leave." ”

"My old man is dizzy, female doll, come forward."

Hearing this, Tang Jing took a few steps forward.

The old man's eyes, which saw the prosperity of the world, looked Tang Jing up and down with the light of wisdom.

Tang Jing also looked at the old man with his spare eyes.

It was a gray-haired, unkempt old man, somewhat similar to a certain character in her memory.

"Female dolls don't want to be called by their predecessors, they are prominent, call me Zhou Lao."

Zhou Lao pinched his messy beard and circled around Tang Jing, his original eyes full of wisdom became obscene in seconds, "The girl doll is so handsome... Old Zhou, I haven't seen an outsider for a long time, tsk... What a beautiful female doll. ”

Xuanyuan Wudao: "......"

His bow and crossbow were already set up with arrows.

Tang Jing twitched the corners of her mouth, "Old Zhou has won the prize..."

This old man's painting style has changed rapidly, and his appearance finally overlaps with a certain character in Tang Jing's memory, the character in the martial arts novel I read a long, long time ago, Zhou Botong!

"Old Zhou, I can't help you show you the way out, but..."

Here it comes! Tang Jing's spirits perked up, she drove away the messy thoughts in her head, and had a very gentle smile on her face.

The sentence she just said that let Zhou Lao show the way is actually a set, the NPCs in Datang have a common problem, obviously they can solve a team as soon as they make a move, but they just like to instruct players, she just threw the bait, is sure that the other party will not be so simple to show them the way, and will definitely put forward conditions.

Although I don't know what kind of quest the old man will post, it is always an NPC in the hidden map, and the reward will not be too bad.

"Elder Zhou, please speak." Tang Jing waited for Zhou Lao to release the task in his heart.

"Good attitude, good." Zhou Lao glanced at her appreciatively, and then his gaze fell on Xuanyuan Wudao behind him, with a disgusted expression, "The one over there, what are you still doing there?" Hurry up and let me go to the forest to cut firewood, do you see the grass hut over there? Fill the hut to its fullness. ”

“……”

"Where's the wood knife?" Xuanyuan Wudao said coldly, he didn't care what kind of NPC the other party was, in his eyes, this was a bad old man who teased his daughter-in-law!

"I said that you are a tall young man, and your eyes are not as clear as an old man like me, there and there!" Zhou Lao blasted people away like flies.

"Lady, this old man dares to tease you, so I will pull out his tongue." Xuanyuan Wudao dropped a word, and carried the firewood knife to the forest.

Zhou Lao crossed his hands on his hips and glared at the back, "Huh! How dare this kid look at his superiors! ”

"Don't be surprised by Old Zhou, he didn't mean to contradict you." Tang Jing hurriedly played a round game, what if this annoyed the old man and deducted his favorability?

In fact, Tang Jing thought too much, and Zhou Lao's skin was far thicker than she thought.

"Hey, hey... It's okay, it's okay. Old Zhou waved his hand indifferently, "Old man, how can I worry about him as a junior, let's talk about the female doll." ”

Tang Jing followed him into the courtyard and sat down on a chair, and Zhou Lao came out of the house and sat down opposite her with a teapot and two cups in his hand.

"It's been a long time since anyone came to the old man's place, na, this is my treasured tea, and today I will be cheaper for your girl."

A cup of steaming tea was pushed in front of her, a faint fragrance slowly overflowed, Tang Jing took a sip of the cup, she couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, because she rarely drank tea, but the play still had to be enough, "Good tea..."

"The girl is still tasteful, by the way, what year is tonight? Is Emperor Wu still safe? ”

Emperor? Could it be that he is talking about the late empress in the background of the Tang Dynasty?

This old man must be more than 100 years old, right?

"In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, the current emperor of the Tang Dynasty is Tang Xuanzong."

"I see... Time flies, so many years have passed..."Old Zhou looked up into the distance and muttered to himself, sighing for a while, and raising his head at a forty-five degree angle.

The atmosphere was a little low for a while.

Tang Jing frowned, guessing that his words were affecting the other party's distant memory, and he was about to say something to remedy the current atmosphere, when he saw the old man suddenly stand up.

"Girl, how are you cooking? Go and help the old man catch a few fish, and I'll try your hand at it when I wake up. Zhou Lao walked towards the house with his hands behind his back, "By the way, feed the chickens in the yard by the way." ”

“……”

Tang Jing was stunned and looked at the departing back, although each NPC has its own preferences, personalities and character background stories, but this old man's face has changed too quickly, right?

What is waiting to release the task, what wants to remedy the low atmosphere, and the feelings are all wishful thinking on her part!

No matter how aggrieved Tang Jing is, he will have to pout his ass and work, the NPCs in Datang are all VIPs for players, not to mention hidden NPCs, that is VVIP!

Picking up the chicken food on the shelf, Tang Jing cooed in his mouth, the chickens rushed over to feed, fed the chickens, and took out the dried fish and bait in the backpack and walked to the shore.

Tang Jing put away the dried fish and walked back, and Xuanyuan Wudao also carried two bundles of firewood and just arrived at the grass house.

Her side hustle is cooking, grilling fish is simple for her, the side hustle is not better than life skills, the side hustle can only choose one, and life skills as long as you have time, all the practice is no problem.

"Want my help?"

"No, I'll just run twice, then the old man didn't embarrass you, right?"

Tang Jing picked two wooden sticks to skewer the fish, lit a fire in the yard, and put the skewered fish on the rack to roast, "Feed the chickens, fish, cook..."

“……”

Xuanyuan Wudao twitched his mouth, and finally only said, "I'll fill up the firewood first, and you remember to leave one for me, lady." ”

Tang Jing nodded, indicating that he knew.

The fish meat has been roasted until golden brown, and the skin makes a sizzling sound of oil, Tang Jing added some condiments to it, and the fragrance is even stronger.

"It smells so good..."

The wooden door was opened, Zhou Lao sniffed and walked to Tang Jing's side and squatted down, he didn't care about the heat, he picked it up and began to gobble it up, it seemed like he had been starved for three days without eating.

Tang Jing licked a few sticks of firewood into the fire, looked at Zhou Lao's eating appearance, and smiled, "Zhou Lao, you eat slowly, and what..."

"Woo... It's been a long time since I've had such a delicious grilled fish. Zhou Lao wiped his mouth, and his face was still reminiscent.

Tang Jing looked at the fish bones all over the ground, the one she had promised to leave for Wudao had also entered the old man's stomach, she patted her ass and stood up, thinking that she would re-roast him when she was free.

Even Tang Jing herself didn't realize that she was no longer so repulsive about the two of them getting along.

Xuanyuan Wudao had just filled the firewood in the grass hut, and before he could catch his breath, he was instructed by the old man to go to the stream deep in the forest to fetch water.

Tang Jing silently turned his face away, thinking that he had set up a trap on the old man, but he put themselves in it, and could only say to him silently in his heart, sorry.

And she herself took the feather duster given by the old man and began to clean the whole hut.

……

Three hours passed, Zhou Lao stood in his brand-new courtyard, and nodded with satisfaction, "Young man, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must work their muscles and bones, and starve their bodies and skin..."

The old man also said it.

Tang Jing twitched the corners of her mouth, and she didn't even have a superfluous expression on her face.

"For the sake of your performance to my satisfaction, go out from here and go east along the shore, there is a small boat that will take you out of here."

It seems that this trip has not gained anything, and I have been a volunteer for so long...

Zhou Lao seemed to guess Tang Jing's dissatisfaction, his face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and nodded to her amiably, "Female doll, it's not time to sigh..."

“……”

Tang Jing raised her eyebrows, tilted her head and asked Xuanyuan Wudao with her eyes, what does this old man mean?

Xuanyuan Wudao shook his head, saying that he didn't know what this old man was selling.

Forget it, no matter what the old man sells, no matter what the mystery is, what they have to do is to get out of here quickly!

Tang Jing didn't know if the NPC would use condiments, but he still handed over all the remaining condiments in his backpack to Zhou Lao, so that he could do it himself when he wanted to eat fish, and he could also have enough food and clothing.

Leaving the hut and walking all the way east along the shore, I saw the small boat that Zhou Lao said was parked there.

When they got on the boat, they didn't need to operate it, and the boat slowly drove towards the sea by itself.

Xuanyuan Wudao crossed Erlang's legs, and lay on the board with his hands behind his head, "Lady, where do you think it will take us?" ”

"It doesn't matter where you go, as long as you can get out of here." She had thought that the change in the parchment would lead her to find Mithril, but she was unlucky to come home when she encountered such an incident on the way!

Xuanyuan Wudao patted the vacant seat beside him, "Come and lie down, look at the sky like this, it's very blue." ”

Tang Jing hesitated for a moment, but still raised his feet and walked over to lie down next to him.

The two quietly looked at the blue sky and blue sea, and no one broke the tranquility of this moment.
