Chapter 41 - The Disappearance of the Secret Covenant
On the Demon Spirit Continent, it was already noon at this moment. However, it was the most comfortable time of the year in the Demon Spirit Continent. In late autumn, the trees and vegetation on the Demon Spirit Continent began to protect themselves one after another, and the entire continent began to gradually enter a period of recuperation. For some people who have finished farming, their favorite thing to do during this time is to hold a pot of tea and go out early to find the old people who sit in the teahouse every day to chat. There was a hint of comfort on the entire Demon Spirit Continent.
The weather is starting to get cooler, but the sun at noon is milder and more comfortable. It is relatively comfortable to shine on the Demon Spirit Continent, and the most comfortable noon time for the people is to go out to bask in the sun after lunch, and have a good time with others.
Businessmen also like to make appointments with their business partners or friends and relatives at this time. Come to the restaurant to find a more comfortable seat, order a pot of wine, and order a small dish. Talking can be spent for hours, sometimes just an afternoon.
This autumn is also a day for all the people to slow down the pace of their lives. Everyone's life is also orderly and peaceful. It seems that the people are adapting to this slow-paced life.
However, there are always some unusual things in such a slow-paced life, and three hurried teenagers and girls rushed in outside a restaurant in the northernmost part of Xuancheng. These three people are really eye-catching, a girl in a white neon dress, a young man in a blue glass shirt, and a girl in a crimson dress. Two young girls and a teenager hurriedly ran from the downstairs of the restaurant to the second floor of the restaurant, and hurriedly found a seat near the window and sat down. Before the shopkeeper could speak, the young man in the blue glass shirt had already hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and serve more food, we are in a hurry, the price is not a problem."
"Ahh The shopkeeper in a white robe and a white hood stood in place so stiffly. I didn't know what to say.
At least half of the customers who come to the restaurant now are very unhurried with the current autumn trend. Several restaurants in Xuancheng, the capital of Qi State, have made some unusual activities with ingenuity, such as "promotion" activities such as drinking tea in the afternoon for free and the price of some specials can be halved. It is precisely because of these various reasons that most of the people who come to the restaurant to drink tea and eat are very frank. When the shopkeeper saw these three teenagers and girls who were a little different, he couldn't react for a while.
"No, isn't it because you think we can't afford to talk to you in a hurry?" the younger girl, who was wearing a long crimson dress and a long ponytail, didn't look at the shopkeeper who was stunned in place, but shouted angrily.
The shopkeeper was startled by the girl in the crimson dress, and hurriedly said: "Naturally, I'll go and summon you" The shopkeeper straightened out the white hat on his head that was a little upside down, picked up the sign with the name of the dish in his hand, and walked downstairs with a disgraced face.
The shopkeeper turned the stairs back to the kitchen, and was just about to step in, when suddenly a leisurely voice came from his side. "What's the matter, weren't you high-spirited just now, why do you seem to be a little depressed now?"
The shopkeeper turned his head angrily, and glared fiercely at the source of the voice, a middle-aged man with a normal complexion, very calm, and plain clothes. He stamped his feet and walked into the kitchen in the backyard.
Looking at the back of the shopkeeper leaving, the middle-aged man in a plain white shirt gently picked up the wine in front of him that he hadn't drunk for a long time, and gently raised his neck to take a sip. A comfortable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered to himself: "These three children are really interesting, I have great hopes for you, I hope you will not disappoint the teacher."
Sitting upstairs in a girl in a white neon dress, a young man in a blue glass shirt, and a girl in a crimson dress had already begun to enjoy the lunch of the three of them. During the period, the girl who was wearing a white neon dress and a beautiful face like a begonia proposed that she could eat the food in the cafeteria of the college next time. Although the money they have in hand is relatively rich now, they can't withstand the consumption of the past few days.
The young man in the blue glass shirt beside him nodded slightly, and he was equally convinced. Although they earned a thousand taels of silver through the game in Huicheng a few days ago, they still had to be in the spirit of frugality, and they couldn't spend it like this.
"Don't worry, Sister Yue, I know, but let's enjoy it today," the young man in a blue glass shirt smiled lightly, and began to enjoy today's rare enjoyment time with the dishes and chopsticks that the shopkeeper had already delivered. The girl in the white neon dress smiled slightly, and did not say anything more. The girl with the crimson dress beside her had naturally begun to chew and enjoy it slowly.
Two very eye-catching girls accompanied a young man who was inconspicuous in comparison, and the scene of the three of them gobbling up food came into the eyes of the people sitting at several tables next to them. These people didn't know what to say, but these three people were really eye-catching, and it was impossible for the people around them to pay attention to it.
The girl in the white neon dress is Gao Hanyue, the young man in the blue glass shirt is Feng Yuchong, and the girl in the crimson dress is naturally Jiang Yuehan who caught up with the two of them later. The three of them were going to look for Luo Yinying and Sun Hao, but when Jiang Yuehan caught up with Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong. It was close to noon. The three of them summed it up and decided to go for lunch first. In the afternoon, I will go to find Luo Yinying and Sun Hao. So, naturally, the three of them came to this restaurant and started to eat lunch.
Gao Hanyue is still wearing a white neon dress, and a pair of dancing golden butterflies are painted on the long skirt. Gao Hanyue touched her mouth and looked at Jiang Yuehan, who was already thinking out of her place. Gao Hanyue said softly to Feng Yuchong in front of her: "Chong'er is almost there, let's go."
"Mmmmmmmmmm The shopkeeper could only silently turn around and walk to Feng Yuchong's side, and said with some reluctance: "A total of five taels of silver"
Feng Yuchong took out a silver ticket from his bosom that was covered with ten taels of silver during the Xuanle period. The shopkeeper smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth reluctantly smiled, and he took the silver ticket of ten taels of silver and went back to find the money.
When the shopkeeper returned to the position where Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan were originally sitting with five taels of silver. But he was surprised not to find any of the three of Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan. The five taels of silver in the shopkeeper's second-hand fell silently to the ground
Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan didn't care too much about the five taels of silver. The three of them rushed down the restaurant. Walking on the wide road in the vast Xuancheng City, Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan didn't know where to look for Luo Yinying and Sun Hao.
Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan summed it up, and decided to go to the forest where Gao Hanyue and Feng Yuchong were going to find Luo Yinying and Sun Hao last night. The three of them walked out of the city, admiring the different varieties of flowers that bloomed in autumn on the roadside, but they were not in a hurry.
At the east gate of Xuancheng, the figures of Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan have successfully walked out of the city gate. The three of them were still discussing whether to go to the goddess-like figure who appeared yesterday, wrapped in ice crystals. Feng Yuchong's exclamation had already sounded, "Why are you all right when you came back?"
Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan, whose heads were originally lowered, also raised with Feng Yuchong's voice, but they also saw a girl with a tired face in front of the two of them, but still pretending to be full of energy. Luo Yinying's figure in a pink dress appeared in front of Feng Yuchong, Gao Hanyue and Jiang Yuehan again.
"Ying'er, are you okay" Gao Hanyue's throat choked suddenly, and she could only ask a sentence like this.
