"There hasn't been much change in Kyoto. ”

Zheng Xian walked on the street, watching as he walked.

Zheng Xian originally thought that Kyoto had been ravaged twice before and after, and now it had become dilapidated, but Kyoto did not seem to have changed much.

Kyoto is so big that as long as you don't go to the destroyed places, Kyoto is basically the same. In addition, Yang Xinzhong has a very strict grasp of public security, so there is no such thing as street robbery.

On this sunny day, walking on the road to Kyoto with such a swagger, for Zheng Xian, it was like a lifetime, the whole world has not changed, but he Zheng Xian has changed.

Walking in the bustling crowd, smelling the smell of people coming and going, Zheng Xian had a feeling of walking among strange beasts.

He was already completely different from these people, or rather, he was a strange beast, and the crowd around him was full of strangeness to Zheng Xian.

If it weren't for Zhou Jiaojiao holding his arm next to him, Zheng Xian would definitely have a feeling of loneliness at this time.

Zheng Xian and Zhou Jiaojiao walked on the street like a couple in love.

Zhou Jiaojiao was obviously preoccupied, and she didn't look very interested.

Zheng Xian understood why Zhou Jiaojiao was like this, Zhou Jiaojiao originally hoped that she could re-enter the political arena and restore the glory of the Twelve Pillars, but now that the children and grandchildren of the Twelve Pillars have been wiped out, the possibility of Zhou Jiaojiao's reversal is very small, and it can even be said that there is almost no zài.

Zheng Xian patted Zhou Jiaojiao's arm gently, he didn't have any words of comfort, a smart woman like Zhou Jiaojiao didn't need Zheng Xian's words to comfort her, as long as she gave Zhou Jiaojiao a little time, she would be able to adjust herself. All Zheng had to do was to stand next to her all the time.

Zheng Xian took Zhou Jiaojiao to walk blindly on the street, and seeing that noon time was up, Zheng Xian took Zhou Jiaojiao to the side of the Benzhai noodle restaurant unconsciously.

Zheng Xian missed a bowl of noodles for I don't know how long.

However, looking at the lock that locked the door tightly, Zheng Xian couldn't help frowning slightly, the noodle shop was closed, and looking at the dust on the window, it should have been closed for a long time.

Standing in front of the closed door of the noodle restaurant, Zheng Xian had a feeling of loss in his heart, as if the only link between him and this world, these mortals, had been severed with a knife.

Kyoto has changed dramatically, and I don't know what happened to Uncle Honsai and Ma Motoma.

When Zheng Xian pulled Zhou Jiaojiao and turned around to leave, a white hat appeared not far away.

The white hat obviously noticed Zheng Xian as well.

Ma Benzhai shouted from afar: "Zheng Xian, my little brother." ”

Zheng Xian followed the prestige and showed a bright smile, Zhou Jiaojiao glanced at Zheng Xian, in her memory, Zheng Xian rarely had such an expression on his face.

Ma Benzhai has obviously aged a lot, walked over and patted Zheng Xian's shoulder with a smile and said, "Boy, I haven't seen you for a long time, come and eat noodles?"

Zheng Xian nodded and said, "I came all the way back to eat noodles, but I didn't expect it to be locked." ”

Ma Benzhai laughed and said: "Now even if the president of the country comes and wants to eat my noodles, I don't pay attention to him, but you, it's different, today I have a lot of bleeding, please eat noodles, I can eat as much as you want, I will make as much as I want, and it is enough." ”

"This is your girlfriend?" Ma Benzhai noticed Zhou Jiaojiao next to Zheng Xian.

Zheng Xian smiled and said, "It's my wife." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao originally wanted to talk about her fiancée, but she didn't expect Zheng Xian to directly omit the word "not" for you. Such a title made Zhou Jiaojiao's heart warm slightly. Judging from the men Zhou Jiaojiao has come into contact with in the past, men and women are completely different.

Women and men always want to put a loop around the man's neck and tie the two together at all times, while men always want to be free and pat their butts and walk away after playing.

"Oh my God, then I should add an extra slice of beef to the noodles. Ma Benzhai seemed to be in good spirits and said with a smile. But Zheng Xian could see that Ma Benzhai's face was covered with a gloomy color, and he was obviously preoccupied.

When I opened the door of the noodle restaurant, the tables, chairs and benches in the door were very clean, and I could see that although there was a lot of dust on the door, there were still people in this room who often wiped the tables and chairs.

As soon as Zheng Xian entered the room, he could smell the smell of a rich soup being boiled by the flames.

"Your old soup shouldn't be rancid, right?" Zheng Xian sniffled, this is the taste of stewed soup, jokingly.

When Ma Benzhai heard this, he couldn't help but blow his beard and glare: "Nonsense." My old soup is handed down from my ancestors, and I have to simmer it even if I don't open a shop! ”

Zheng Xian said casually: "What about the real girl, are you still in school now?"

Ma Benzhai's face changed when he heard this, and then he sighed and said, "Let's talk about it later, eat noodles first, eat noodles first." "For Ma Benzhai, Zheng Xian and Zhou Jiaojiao are just the most ordinary people, and it is useless to tell them about Ma Ben's true things.

With that, Ma Benzhai went into the back kitchen and got busy.

"Zheng Xian, I don't think you're a playboy-type character?" Zhou Jiaojiao sat on the edge of the table, fiddling with the vinegar bottle with her hand.

Zheng Xian asked in surprise: "Of course not." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao sniffed the smell of old vinegar, frowned slightly, and said: "But you returned from the fairy world, I have only met you for a few days, there is a clean water in the front, and a Ganoderma lucidum comes out in the back, this is not counting the little girl Cao Ni who blushes and heartbeats when she sees you, why are you thinking about a girl called Zhenzhen again? Can you explain to me what is going on?"

Zheng Xian said seriously: "But only you are my wife." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao's face was still stiff when she heard this, but she was broken in a moment, revealing a happy look, and then she couldn't hold back anymore when she wanted to keep a straight face, and said coquettishly: "I didn't see that you would still be flamboyant, I don't know how many little girls I have deceived in the fairy world this time, since I said that I am your wife, do you have a wedding ring?

Zheng Xian sighed and said, "Rings, you also want such cheesy things?"

Zhou Jiaojiao snorted coldly and said: "I'm not rare in rings, but that woman in the world doesn't want the ring from her lover? ”

Zheng Xian reached out and grabbed it like a trick, and then a delicate rectangular box was placed in front of Zhou Jiaojiao.

Zhou Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, and then a surprised expression appeared on her face, and the whole person instantly became radiant. Zhou Jiaojiao really didn't expect Zheng Xian to really prepare a gift for her, although the box should be a rectangular thing like a necklace, but Zhou Jiaojiao had an intuition that what was in this box must be a ring.

Zhou Jiaojiao's heart is pounding, she is very knowledgeable, but it is the first time to be given a diamond ring by a man, and it is inevitable that she will be excited, speaking of which, if it is a ring sent by other men, Zhou Jiaojiao will not look at it and throw it away, but what Zheng Xian sent is very different, for Zhou Jiaojiao, this is like a ceremony, an exciting ceremony for a long time.

Zhou Jiaojiao opened the box, and there was a row of eight rings inside, Zhou Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment and suddenly burst out laughing, almost uncontrollable.

After a long time, Zhou Jiaojiao covered her stomach and raised her face and said, "What do you mean by preparing so many rings?"

Zheng Xian smiled and said, "Then you can wear the ring on all eight fingers on both hands." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao showed an expression of disdain, and said, "Isn't that stupid? It's so embarrassing that I won't wear eight rings at the same time." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao then pinched these rings one by one and looked at them, she thought it would be a diamond ring, but when she opened it, she found that it was not, but a gemstone ring inlaid with various colors.

Zhou Jiaojiao frowned slightly, the label inside the box clearly said Liufu Diamond Ring, how did it become a gemstone ring? Zheng Xian shouldn't have found a ring and a box to deal with her? In that case, her expectation of the ring ceremony would be too funny.

Looking at Zhou Jiaojiao's surprised expression, Zheng Xian smiled and said: "This ring was originally inlaid with diamonds, but I thought it was too rustic, so I took out the diamonds and re-inlaid these gems." ”

Zhou Jiaojiao doesn't know much about gemstones, but she still has a vision of seeing more good things, and when she heard Zheng Xian say this, she looked at each gem on it again.

These gems are the size of almonds, and at first glance they look quite ordinary and nothing special, but if you look closely, you can see that these gems are crystal clear, and there seem to be various filaments of light swimming inside, not like ordinary ordinary things.

"The gem on this is not simple, it contains at least five thousand life force, it is said to be the power of Allah, I have helped you to transform it, once you are in danger, the power in this ring will be triggered, and this ring can become your talisman." ”

Zheng Xian snatched these rings from Hediye, but at that time this ring was worn by a man, so naturally it could not be given to Zhou Jiaojiao, Zheng came to buy eight identical diamond rings in the jewelry store when he was shopping, picked out the priceless diamonds on it, and replaced them with these gems, and spent a lot of effort to adjust the power in the ring, and it would be triggered if there was danger, in order to protect Zhou Jiaojiao, and the intentions were quite good.

Zhou Jiaojiao's heart warmed when she heard this, for a woman, her requirements are actually not high, as long as this man always has her in his heart, it is enough to be able to think of her at all times, but ordinary men can't do this.

Zheng Xian was worried about her safety, and specially created such eight rings, for Zhou Jiaojiao, of course, she was happy in her heart.

Zhou Jiaojiao happily selected a purple gemstone ring from it and put it on the ring finger of her left hand, not to mention, it is quite good-looking, Zhou Jiaojiao looked at it from time to time, with a happy look, at this time Zhou Jiaojiao did not have the appearance of the eldest lady of the Zhou family at all, she was simply a little girl.

was engaged in Zheng Xian's tricks, Zhou Jiaojiao had forgotten to ask Zheng Xian, who was surrounded by women around her, to ask for an explanation, and was completely immersed in the warm ocean brought by the ring.

As soon as a woman falls in love, her IQ decreases, and the deeper she loves, the more stupid she becomes, and this sentence is not wrong at all.

At this time, a rich aroma came to the face, and Ma Benzhai's voice came from the back kitchen: "The noodles are here." ”

Ma Benzhai took out four bowls of beef noodles in one go and lined them up on the table.

After experiencing a lot of life and death, seeing this bowl of beef noodles again, and smelling the familiar and unchanged taste, Zheng Xian seemed to return to the time when he rented a room on the roof of the opposite building, at that time, Zheng Xian had to come down to eat a bowl of noodles every day, eat it when he was in a good mood, and eat it even more when he was in a bad mood.

At that time, life was quite simple, and all I thought about every day was to complete more tasks, catch more locusts, and earn more money, simple and pure, without pressure.

Zheng Xian broke the chopsticks, and Ma Benzhai smiled: "You kid can't leave a mouthful of soup." ”

Zheng Xian didn't care whether it was hot or not, he took a sip on the edge of the bowl, it was fragrant and refreshing, and it was extremely delicious, Zheng Xian carefully tasted it and said: "Don't talk about these bowls of soup, if you want, I will go directly to the kitchen and drink not a drop of your old soup." ”

Ma Benzhai laughed, but then his face darkened, obviously not happy.

Zheng Xian began to focus on eating noodles, and he didn't stop for a while.

Zhou Jiaojiao was not very interested in eating noodles, and was even a little tired of eating, but seeing Zheng Xian's gobbling up like that, she also picked a chopstick and put it in her mouth.

The noodles rolled slightly in her mouth, Zhou Jiaojiao's face changed slightly, showing a surprised expression, and exclaimed: "This noodle is really delicious." ”

A noodle restaurant that a guy like Zheng Xian who has a soft spot for noodles can't forget is naturally not too bad.

In the entire noodle restaurant, there was only the sound of Zheng Xian eating noodles at this time, and Zhou Jiaojiao was also eating, but she was much more cultured than Zheng Xian, and there was basically no sound.

Ma Benzhai squinted his eyes and watched Zheng Xian eat noodles, Zheng Xian eating noodles is a kind of enjoyment, for him who has made noodles all his life, watching Zheng Xian eat noodles is even more enjoyable.

The so-called goods seller knows the family, and he really doesn't have the slightest heart to make beef noodles if he is replaced by someone else.

"Zheng Xian, I'll give you this noodle shop. Ma Benzhai suddenly spoke.

This sentence made Zheng Xian almost squirt out all the noodles in his mouth.

Zheng Xian put down his chopsticks and looked at Ma Benzhai in surprise, and then pinched himself, Ma Benzhai reached out and took Zheng Xian's hand away, and said, "It's not a dream, I'm serious." ”

The significance of this noodle restaurant to Ma Benzhai Zheng Xian is too clear, and it is even more cruel to move Ma Benzhai's noodle restaurant than to ask for his life.

This noodle restaurant is Ma Benzhai's own son, daughter-in-law, Ma Benzhai actually said at this time that he wanted to give the noodle restaurant to him, which is just like Ma Benzhai said to Zheng Xian that my daughter-in-law doesn't want it, and I gave it to you.
