Chapter 4: Introductory Black Clothes
Zhang Manzi himself picked up a piece and ate it, chewing it and saying: "This black peak, it's not as beautiful as those people imagined, you have to remember Libai's words." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
As he spoke, he took another big sip of water.
"Huh?" Xu Fei still replied briefly.
Zhang Manzi was a little displeased, but he continued: "When you get there, there will be two people who will take care of your life, they are all slaves and maids who have been sent to Zhuangzi for training after the age of eight, all you have to do is practice well." If you can't turn your strength at the age of eighteen, then what awaits you is the sect's assignment. ”
"As for whether this mission is dangerous or not, it's up to you to take chances." Zhang Manzi looked at his empty sleeves, and was a little sad for a while.
Xu Fei also glanced at it, not knowing what he was thinking.
"There's nothing else to say, just cultivate, if you have the strength, everything is yours, if you don't have the strength, you can only be bullied, or like us, find a Zhuangzi to live your life."
Seeing that the child was indifferent, Zhang Manzi was even more dissatisfied, and he didn't bother to say any more, leaning against the side wall to eat meat.
Eating meat silently, Xu Fei's heart has actually not changed, and he suddenly became a child, how can he deal with himself? can only be silent.
For Zhang Manzi and others, cultivation is for a better life, but what about him? Although this is just a world, it is his hope, the hope of a family reunion.
Since the mythological timeline was disrupted, his heart in the game world overnight has faded, as if he has grown up, and he knows how to work hard and fight hard.
Between the rickety of the carriage, time kept passing.
Finally, as the sky darkened, the carriage gradually tilted, and it was heading up the hill.
"Phew~"
The coachman pulled the carriage, stopped the carriage, knocked on the window, and whispered: "Lord Zhang, we have arrived outside the entrance village of Heitiefeng." ”
"Got it!"
Zhang Manzi woke up Xu Fei, who had fallen asleep, and carried him out of the carriage.
This is the foot of the Black Iron Mountain, the lights are bright, a small village is the entrance to the mountain, there are more than a dozen carriages parked at the door, the same is a coachman, a guard.
Xu Fei followed behind Zhang Manzi and walked towards Zhuangzi.
"Zhang Manzi, there are people in your village today?" A guard with a child was about to enter when he saw someone coming from behind.
"Gangzi, don't you have it too? Looks like our brother has to drink one today! Zhang Manzi greeted him with a smile, and hugged the visitor tightly with one arm.
"Let's go, send the child in first, and then go and get the pill, I'll be the east today!" Gangzi laughed and patted Zhang Manzi on the shoulder.
The two smiled and led the two children into the village.
This is a front and back in and out of two large openings, surrounded by a small manor like a courtyard, on the left side are two lively wine and food rooms, full of people, on the right is the place to register, distribute pills, a few black-clothed warriors stand aside.
Zhang Manzi took Xu Fei to the right and said to a middle-aged man holding a notebook: "Twelve villages, one!" ”
Gangzi followed closely behind, and also pulled a child forward: "Bazhuang, too"
The middle-aged man nodded, jotted it down in his notebook, then took out a ceramic vial from under the table, uncorked the bottle, and poured out six pills the size of mung beans.
Suddenly, a fragrant breath emanated from the medicine bottle, and the middle-aged man hurriedly stuffed the stopper back.
"Three for one person, divide it yourself!"
Zhang Manzi and Gangzi opened their mouths with laughter when they saw the pills, and each took three of them and put them into the small box they carried.
Xu Fei looked at the scene in front of him, and somewhat understood, this thing should be the Pei Yuan Dan that Li Bai said at that time, right? He smelled the elixir and felt that the system seemed to change somewhat, but in an instant, he was immersed in it.
Then the middle-aged man took out some cyan knife coins, which were the common currency of the Seven Evil Sects and even the Zhou Dynasty, divided into black, blue, red and white, each black knife coin has a fairly strong purchasing power, equivalent to ten taels of silver, and the cyan is ten times doubled, which is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver.
The two put away the elixir, picked up the cyan knife coin, and then turned around and left together, leaving the two children standing here alone.
"Name?" The middle-aged man said to them.
Of course, Xu Fei decided to use his original name, these two words he paid the most attention to, and he could already say his name normally.
"Xu Fei"
"Zhang Guo," said another child.
"Come on, let's give them a bath and send them up the mountain!" The middle-aged man glanced at the two children, wrote down their names, and then commanded.
At this time, the two slaves standing on the side walked up, bowed down, turned their left hands back, and made an invitation with their right hands, and introduced Xu Fei and the others into the inner room.
One person in a room, there is a small wooden barrel in the room, the strange thing is that there is a small hole the size of a child's fist under the wooden barrel is flowing with water, and there is a bamboo tube on the side, and the water is in the barrel, and it is just balanced when it comes out and when it goes in.
The slave was going to dress Xu Fei for a bath, but he refused: "Go out", so he had to put aside the bath kerchief and a kind of ointment, bowed his head and respectfully withdrew.
"I'm so big that I really haven't been served by men to take a bath!"
Xu Fei smiled lightly, took off his clothes, and stepped into the low wooden barrel.
The water is a little hot, but it is very comfortable to soak in it, wash away the fatigue of the body, and there is a sulfur smell in the water, this water is probably drawn from the hot springs in the mountains, right?
Looking at the blue and purple on his body, this thin body looked a little weird, which was a few days ago when he was tricked by children into digging out bird eggs from a tree.
Next to it is a red ointment, which is something like soap that cleanses the body and has some blood-invigorating properties.
Xu Fei picked up the ointment and rubbed it on his body, good guy, the dirt on this body was rubbed down a whole layer, but fortunately, the water kept flowing, and it was finally washed clean after washing for a long time.
The hair was not too long, it only covered the back of the neck, and there were some stolen goods glued to it, and it took a long time to wash it with this ointment before it became soft.
I originally wanted to wear my original linen clothes, but when I took it at this time, I was defeated by the smell on the clothes, and I was not clean before, so I didn't feel the smell of living in the thatched house for a long time, but now I washed it, and the smell was suddenly obvious.
"Someone!" Xu Fei shouted, he had just heard the middle-aged man say this, so he also shouted it in a straight voice.
The servant, who had been standing guard at the door, heard the shouting, and immediately walked in, bowed and listened.
"Clothes!" This sentence is very light and somewhat unclear.
But the slave looked at it and immediately understood what Xu Fei meant, he had served here for many years, how could he not know?
I saw him walk over to the barrel. In a small box, there was a set of black suits, the same as those worn by Libai and others, but the size was slightly smaller, and it was obviously worn by children.
Choosing a set of clothes that were not much different from it, the servant bent down and put the clothes on the edge of the previous bath towel, and carefully withdrew.
Xu Fei, who was watching it, couldn't help but be a little confused, couldn't this person speak? But this mind is exquisite.
Pick up the bath towel, wipe your body clean, and then put on your clothes.
This is a set of clothes, including an inner liner, socks, and a pair of small black cloth boots.
The overall feeling is a bit big, this is mainly because Xu Fei's body is too thin, but after this freshening, his face is not sallow, after the dirt is scrubbed off, his skin is covered by mud all year round, and he does not see the sun, but it looks a little fair.
Under the black clothes, the complexion is a little crystalline, and it also looks a little well-behaved.
Xu Fei pushed open the door, and the slave led him to the back of Zhuangzi, where the previous child had already changed into black clothes and was waiting on the side.
