Chapter 10: The Banquet

As night falls, Araki Castle is once again deserted, but the events of that day will spread throughout Araki Castle. The dirty and smelly little beggar has turned into the personal guard of the daughter of the Fu family, which is what many young talents dream of. But there is no way to do this, after all, the little beggar can defeat the enemy in one move, and the other party is still a well-known mercenary rock madness.

After this incident, Yue Yi has undoubtedly become the biggest winner, and the daytime will also become a topic of conversation after dinner, and the elders are estimated to take this as an example to educate their juniors and not to bully the poor youth.

Fu Jia, in a spacious bathroom, the mist is steaming, and the bathroom furnishings are very simple, in front of the screen are neatly placed wooden barrels, and the wooden barrels are filled with hot water. Behind the screen, there is a large wooden barrel more than three feet high, and under the barrel is a hollow stone lei, and there are a few fragments of wood burning in the center of the stone lei, and the flame is slowly rising.

And in the barrel, a young man sat cross-legged, the water level was shoulder-high, and the white mist slowly rose on the surface of the water, and there were some flower petals floating on the water. The young man's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was enjoying the feeling. A tattered purple-brown suit appeared to have been discarded in the corner. In the barrel is Yue Yi, who is out of the limelight during the day.

Yue Yi slowly opened his eyes, stretched his body, held his breath again, and submerged in the water, washing his slightly greasy hair. He has been washing for nearly an hour, this is the second bucket of water he has changed, he has always loved to be clean, dirty for a month, it is rare to be able to take a bath, of course, to wash a good time.

After a while, Yue Yi came out of the water again, took a deep breath, after the moist air entered the body, it looked extremely comfortable, if it wasn't for the maid who went to the hall to participate in the banquet an hour before entering the bathroom, then Yue Yi would not hesitate to take a night bath. After rubbing his body again to make sure that there was no sludge, he stood up and put on his robe that hung from the screen.

At that time, the maid brought seven or eight sets of robes, Yue Yi didn't think about it, and directly took one at random, for him, it was already very good to have decent clothes, compared to the pair of rags in the corner, Yue Yi still had any pickiness.

When Yue Yi was dressing, he found that he had taken a set of purple robes, a purple and gold belt was tied around his waist, which looked extraordinarily spiritual, and Yue Yi was once a soldier with strong muscles, and the lines of his body were very symmetrical, just enough to hold up the robe, the robe was close and compact, and the person looked extraordinarily straight.

Yue Yi nodded with satisfaction and walked out of the bathroom. The four maids who were waiting outside the bathroom heard the sound of the door opening and looked over one after another, at this time Yue Yi smiled at them and said, "Where is the hall?"

The maids looked at Yue Yi at this time, it was a world of difference compared to before, and one of the maids volunteered and led Yue Yi to the hall in a hurry. The remaining three maids were a little regretful, and then reminisced about how they had just felt.

In the hall of the Fu family, at this moment, Fu Qinghai, the head of the Fu family, was already sitting in the first place, and beside him was a beautiful woman with a veil, and the daughter of the Fu family was dreaming. On the left and right sides of the hall are neatly arranged five tables, which are very symmetrical.

At this time, nine of the ten seats have been seated, except for the seat headed by the right, which should be reserved for Yue Yi.

Delicate fruits and grilled meats are served on the table, and a few delicate side dishes are placed on each table, making it particularly tempting.

At this time, no one put down the chopsticks, because the head of the family did not give an order, and the nine people below did not dare to take the host, thinking that the head of the house was waiting for Yue Yi to enter the table.

"Grandpa, it's been an hour, why hasn't that Yue Yi come yet, it's too rude. Fu Mengying was a little impatient and asked her grandfather to wait for dinner, this was the first time.

"Hehe, don't worry, the situation is special, I'm afraid you want to see the appearance of your personal guard earlier. Fu Qinghai touched his beard and said jokingly.

"Nonsense, isn't that just like that?" At this moment, I don't know what Fu Mengying is thinking under the veil.

"Master, Yue Yi's guards have been brought. ”

The other nine people didn't speak, but they all looked at each other, with envious eyes in their eyes. While the grandfather and grandson were talking, a maid walked in, bowed down and said to Fu Qinghai in the seat.

"Don't invite him in and dine. Without waiting for the master to speak, Fu Mengying commanded, but there was a hint of expectation in his words.

"Childe, please. ”

Yue Yi slowly walked to the center of the hall, clasped his fists at the two above the first place, and said humbly: "Family master, miss, sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time. ”

Fu Mengying looked at Yue Yi standing in the center of the hall, and couldn't believe that it was the dirty and smelly beggar from before. Yue Yi is not the kind of handsome cream student, maybe because he is a little thin, his whole face is angular, with the fortitude of a soldier, his long purple and brown hair is scattered at will, and his stunning purple eyes play the role of the finishing touch for this ordinary and resolute face, which is quite charming, and he is the kind of man who belongs to a very attractive type.

At this moment, looking at Yue Yi, who was dressed in a slender purple robe and was standing in the hall, there was a slight hint of fierceness in his eyes, as if he was commanding a general with thousands of troops, this temperament was really unique.

After all, before this, Yue Yi was indeed a genius general, and he revealed the temperament of a soldier in his bones, resolute and decisive, which could not be concealed.

Everyone also looked at Yue Yi standing in the center, that kind of bearing was indeed far from being comparable to them, and they were a little dissatisfied before, but after seeing this momentum, there was no complaint.

Fu Qinghai, who was in the first place, looked at Yue Yi in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction, this is indeed qualified to be his granddaughter's personal guard, and then looked at it again, before saying: "It's not too late, it's not too late, it's good to come, please take a seat." ”

Yue Yi walked to his seat, which was not too far from Fu Mengying at the moment, and it was only a table away.

Fu Mengying sometimes glanced at the personal guards not far from him, as if the side face also had a charm, although the appearance was a little ordinary, but that kind of resolute temperament made people feel a sense of security.

"Hehe, everyone is here, everyone has also experienced a day of fighting, presumably they are all hungry, please. Fu Qinghai smiled.

"Please, master. ”

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and then picked up chopsticks to taste the delicious food on the table.

Because Yue Yi had eaten barbecue before, he didn't gobble it up, and he tasted the food slowly like everyone else, and drank a sip of wine from time to time to moisten his throat, with a satisfied look on his face.

A month ago, he was still living like this, but after a month of purgatory, when he returned to this life, it was undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment.

Fu Mengying wore a veil and did not eat with everyone, and when she first returned, she had already called someone to send her to her room, she was only here to participate in the discussion after the banquet.

However, Fu Mengying still glanced at everyone from time to time, looking at the contrast between Yue Yi and the rest of the people not far away, and found that it was not at the same level at all, it was completely the gap between the soldiers and the ruffians. is also glad that his grandfather came up with a way to let Yue Yi have a competition in the ring by mistake.

If it's that rock maniac as his personal bodyguard, then it's better not to, some people may be very desperate when fighting for themselves, but if they fight for someone else, it's a different story. And the feeling that Yue Yi in front of him seems to be able to make people feel at ease, so at ease that they can rest assured that they can hand over their backs to this person.

"Deacon Fu, how about I win him and the roast will be mine?"

Fu Mengying's ears seemed to echo Yue Yi's words again, even if a man looks ordinary, his confident bearing is convincing, when he

When he defeated the enemy with one move, he was even more stunned by everyone present, who would have thought that a beggar would have the strength that everyone looked up to.

And he doesn't know what he has experienced, a person with such strength, but he is willing to be a beggar, he must have suffered something before.

Half an hour later, Fu Qinghai saw that everyone was full, and immediately said: "First of all, thank you for joining the ten, the old man will fulfill his promise and reward you with the wasted coins tomorrow, Yue Yi, you are the first place, so you can get an extra precious medicinal herb, what medicinal herb do you want?"

Everyone was happy, this day's hard work was not in vain, equivalent to their previous income for one or two years. Then he looked at Yue Yi with envy, at least a few thousand wastes of a medicinal herb in an ordinary plant, and the precious one was tens of thousands of wastes, which was equivalent to the income of an ordinary trader for several years, and the best luck was that he could still bring it up by himself, why didn't he encounter this kind of good thing? .

Fan Shou, who was sitting first on the left, did not have this kind of regret, when Yue Yi put down the rock madness with one move, that moment was simply very happy for him, if it wasn't for the serious injury at that time, he would definitely laugh on his back, and from then on, Fan Shouda admired this young man from the bottom of his heart.

Yue Yi thought for a moment, and then said, "Family Master, the medicinal herbs I need are slightly rare, the Soul Snatching Grass or the Eternal Spirit Fruit. ”

The other nine people were stunned for a moment, it seemed that they had never heard of this medicinal material, but Fu Qinghai was thoughtful, he started by selling medicinal materials, of course he had heard of these two medicinal materials, and then said: "Presumably you are also a well-informed person, if you want these two medicinal materials, it must be helpful to you, but at present, we have neither." ”

Yue Yi also smiled helplessly, but he didn't have much hope, it seemed that he had to find another way.

"However, the Eternal Spirit Fruit you mentioned is related to your mission this time, and if it is successful, I can give you one. Seeing this, Fu Qinghai said again.

At this time, Rao is Yue Yi, his face showed a hint of excitement, and said, "Dare to ask what the task is?"
