Chapter 4 A Foreign Woman Who Loves to Drink Bean Juice

"Whew~~"

Early in the morning, Yi Xi, who came to the balcony of the hotel, took a deep breath, I don't know how, after staying in a hotel near the Ming Ming Tombs for one night, the fatigue of visiting the Badaling Great Wall the day before yesterday and visiting the Ming Ming Tombs yesterday was swept away, and he couldn't help but sigh a little, there may really be any feng shui treasures in this world, and even if there is nothing, Yi Xi can feel that the entire Ming Tombs itself has some kind of strong spirituality. But maybe like the jade Pixiu hanging around his neck, this so-called spirituality is too powerful, so powerful that Yi Xi doesn't have the ability to receive all this.

After shaking his head, Yi Xi turned around and left the room, and after leaving the guest room, he went straight to the nearby snack bar, Yanjing's breakfast style is rich, but the most talked about is probably the bean juice and the coke circle, not because these two things are really delicious, but the taste of bean juice in this combination, but not the average person can enjoy it, in a dialect of the northeastern Tang Dynasty, a swill smell!

But it is this kind of drink that produces a strange taste after fermentation, but it is the favorite of almost all Yanjing people, Yi Xi also tasted it curiously when he first came to Yanjing, and sprayed it directly on the ground on the side after taking a sip, of course, this is not the first time this has happened, and the old Yanjing people around him only laughed at it kindly.

"A bowl of porridge, two steamed buns with vegetarian filling, two more burnt rings, and a plate of pickles." Yi Xi glanced at the thriving snack bar and said to the proprietress .

"Don't eat a bowl of fried liver? This is a must for us in Yanjing! The proprietress spoke an authentic Yanjing dialect and promoted another Yanjing snack that was more expensive.

"No need," Yi Xi shrugged, "I'm a vegetarian, Xie Lu Xie." ”

"Oh, hehe, that's a shame."

--------

"Boss, a bowl of bean juice, ten burnt circles, a drawer of pork and green onion buns, and a big bowl of fried liver!"

Yi Xi, who was holding the food he ordered, was planning to find a place to eat quietly, and then go to the next stop, the Temple of Heaven, which was also the last stop of his visit to Yanjing, after which he would leave for the "Later Tang Empire National Jade Trading Market" located on the north side of Yanjing, as the end of his trip this time, and it was also the real destination, but this voice was full of Yanjing flavor, and the huge voice almost scared his hands soft.

Yi Xi, who sighed secretly, put the dinner plate on the table not far away, turned his head and glanced behind him, this glance, the whole person couldn't help but be shocked again, of course, it was not how beautiful and beautiful this woman who spoke, but that this woman who spoke an authentic post-Tang Yanjing dialect turned out to be a foreigner, with blond curly hair and a denim casual suit, exuding a sassy air from the inside out! As if sensing Yi Xi's gaze, the foreign friend who was standing in front of the cash register and waiting for breakfast with one of her female companions smiled kindly at Yi Xi, and then turned his head thoughtfully, as if he had found something.

"There's no one here."

After a while, the foreign friend with the dinner plate and her female companion walked to the table where Yi Xi was sitting and stopped, and set their eyes on Yi Xi, who was slowly drinking rice porridge.

"No," Yi Xi looked around, and after finding that almost every table in the store was full of people, he shook his head gently, he was tired of looking at foreigners as a teacher at the Foreign Chinese College, so even if this foreign girlfriend with blonde hair and blue eyes was actually quite beautiful, he would not have any embarrassment, and perhaps out of national pride, Yi Xi still had a good impression of foreigners who were willing to learn Chinese characters.

"Eminem~" After taking a bite of the meat bun, the foreign girlfriend stretched out her hand, "My name is Pendrey, Arthur Pendri, British." ”

"Poof~" Yi Xi finally couldn't help it, and almost choked on the porridge in his mouth, because you can't imagine what a joyful thing it is for a foreigner who speaks Yanjing dialect to be more standard than Yanjing people, in fact, the same tall foreign woman with gray hair next to her couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh a few times.

"Hello," Yi Xi wiped his hands with a napkin, shook his hand politely and said, "My name is Yi Xi, a native of the Later Tang Dynasty, are you a descendant of King Arthur?" By the way, he also made a joke that was not too big or too small.

"Congratulations, you guessed it!" The Englishwoman, Arthur Pendry, smiled and stuffed the rest of the bun into her mouth, chewed for a moment and swallowed it, then said, "You're half-blooded." ”

"Can you see that?" Yi Xi, who has always been unsmiling, found that he didn't know how, he seemed to have a kind of egg intimacy for this British woman in front of him, of course, after a while, he attributed this intimacy to the fact that the other party could speak Chinese, satisfying his national vanity.

"I am a foreigner, I am familiar with the characteristics of foreigners, looking at your face shape, pupils, and hair color, I feel that you are not very similar to orthodox Chinese, so I guessed it, it seems that I guessed correctly, just like you guessed correctly that I am a descendant of King Arthur."

"Ahem~" Yi Xi cleared his throat slightly, obviously, he only regarded this woman's words as a joke, but Yi Xi may never have imagined in his life that the woman in front of him is actually the legendary king of England, a descendant of King Arthur, "I am of mixed Chinese and French descent, my grandmother is French." Afraid that Arthur Pandrey would not understand, he also deliberately translated his grandmother into grandmother.

"Looks like I'm pretty accurate, so do you speak French?"

"No," Yi Xi shrugged his shoulders, stuffed the remaining half of the coke circle in his hand into his mouth, and slowly stood up, you eat slowly, "I still have some things, I wish you a happy play in Houtang!" After that, he left the snack bar with his duffel bag, although he had a good time chatting with this woman named Arthur, but he did not forget his true purpose, life and pickle girls, obviously, life is more important.

"Why are you so interested in this man?" After Yi Xi left, another woman who came with Arthur Pendri, who should also be British, whispered in English, "The appearance is average, and the person is also thin, except for the gray-white curly hair that is a little attractive, it seems that there are no other advantages~"

The gray-haired woman who was about to continue was directly gagged by Arthur Pendry with a pork and green onion bun, "So, Cui Difen, I told you a long time ago that you want to exercise your abilities more, you need to know that our abilities are given to us by our ancestors, not our own, this person, if I am not mistaken, the faint Gaia energy fluctuations that emanate from his body, he is also a mutant, but his ability is relatively weak, I think maybe he himself may not be clear, so"

"Eminem~Eminem~" swallowed the juicy pork and green onion bun into his stomach in two bites, and Cui Difen took Arthur Pandrey's words, "So you want to investigate him?" ”

"Of course," didn't mind the smell of bean juice at all, and after putting the burnt ring in it and soaking it in his mouth, Arthur Pandrey said vaguely, "This is related to my future, I was sent to Hou Tang to not just play around every day, only the descendants of the Arthur family with certain merits are eligible to participate in the inheritance ceremony of the next Shi Zhongjian, so even if it is just a small task, I can't give up, you must know that there is a saying in Yanjing." ”

"What?"

"Grasshopper legs are also meat."

“”

"Temple of Heaven" stood in front of this tall building, Yi Xi sighed slightly, whether it is the Great Wall, the Ming Tombs, or this Temple of Heaven, his ability can perceive the infinite heritage contained in them, but it is the difference of that layer of window paper-like film, Yi Xi can't perceive all this, and he is a little aggrieved, but fortunately, Yi Xi doesn't particularly care about this matter, after sorting out his mood, he turned around and left the Temple of Heaven, and went straight to the subway outside the Temple of Heaven, planning to go directly to the trading field, naturally, Yi Xi, who had his mind on the gambling stone, did not pay attention to it, not very far away from him, with a pair of familiar faces, and the loud foreign beauties who had breakfast with him in the morning followed his footsteps and left the Temple of Heaven

The National Jade Trading Market of the Later Tang Empire, also known as the Yanjing Jade Trading Market, is the only place in Yanjing City that is allowed to trade jade, and there is only one reason, that is, it is convenient to manage, after all, the value of jade is too high, if there is no standardized management, I am afraid that Yanjing will sooner or later become the largest jade product cost factory in the Later Tang Dynasty. This made Yi Xi, who has always liked quiet, frown, but for the sake of his own net worth, at this time, he really has no way to be willful.

Before coming, in order to ensure the so-called safety, Yi Xi did not check any information about the jade trading market anywhere or even in an Internet café, the purpose was to give an illusion to someone who was tracking him down, I just didn't come here intentionally, so in the face of this trading base that is the size of a football field, I am also blinded. However, Yi Xi was not in a hurry, anyway, the current time was not even noon, and after turning the backpack, he began to wander around here.

The traders in the trading base are divided into two kinds, one is to set up a stall in the open air, at most a parasol, such are mostly small merchants, and some wealthy people choose to open a shop here, after all, the flow of people here is incomparable, which is incomparable to other places, so following the flow of people, Yi Xi also came to a jade and jade shop called 'Yutangge', not to mention the quality of the goods inside, just occupying the ground, I know that the owner of this shop is definitely a big tyrant.

Yi Xi, who didn't have much money on him, didn't ask, nor did he stop at any counter, just looked like I just looked like I definitely couldn't afford it, and slowly walked around the jade shop, while taking a look at what kind of jade was more valuable, and at the same time secretly recording the feeling that this kind of jade gave him, for example, there was a heart-shaped necklace carved from red jadeite about the size of an egg in bulletproof glass in the central area of this store, and the price on it was 5.68 million! Although the aura contained in this jade far exceeds all the other jade in this shop, Yi Xi still has no way to understand that someone will spend so much money to buy such a thing, of course, he doesn't need to understand, he only knows that he also needs these wronged people!

"It's basically certain," Arthur Pandley was playing with the jade products that she knew were fake at a glance, while playing with those jade products that she knew were fake, while putting most of her experience on Yi Xi in the store, until the strange fluctuations released by his body suddenly increased, then he turned his head to Cui Difen next to him and said, "When he leaves here, we can enforce mutant management regulations on him!" ”

"What kind of abilities is he?"

"I don't know," Gently putting the thing back in his hand, Arthur Pendry stood up, "I only know that the kind of energy fluctuations unique to mutants have become larger, this time, I guess you also feel it, but we have no way of knowing what he did."
