Chapter Twenty-Three: The Game
Watching Zhao Xuxing leave in a hurry, Xiao Ling also patted the anti-dust on his body a little depressed. [Full text reading]
Although he knew that Zhao Xu had cultivated Xuanqi, he was also an adult in his twenties, and he would lose to a child who was only ten years old, which also made him smile bitterly.
However, in this way, Xiao Ling's heart is more and more yearning for that mysterious energy.
A little fat man who is only ten years old, but he has only cultivated to the third stage of Xuanqi, he can easily push him down, if he cultivates to the silver Xuanjin Xuan, what kind of situation should it be at that time.
And Xiao Ling suddenly remembered Ling Xiao's strength, the supreme powerhouse in the middle of Tianxuan, what kind of existence should it be.
For a while, Xiao Ling felt touched and extremely melancholy.
It was also because of today's events that Xiao Ling's determination to cultivate Xuan Qi was even more aroused.
For this reason, he worked very hard in the kitchen for the next few days, and after these days of contact, he gradually learned some about the cooking methods of this world.
Although he is accustomed to seeing all kinds of new things in this world, he is still very interested in the cooking methods of this world.
However, although the cooking techniques of Tian Yuan Da 6 are different from those on earth in some places, they are basically very simple.
This is really nothing to Xiao Ling, who is proficient in all kinds of cooking skills on the earth. After a period of observation, Xiao Ling has basically mastered the cooking skills of this world.
The days seem to be very dull, but it is in this dullness that something unexpected happens.
Because in the past few months, Zhao Xu ran to him every day, and it didn't take long for Zhao Wan'er to appear.
Actually, I don't blame other people for talking too much, it's just that by chance, because Xiaoqiu ran back in the middle of the night to sleep with Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling was also helpless for this little guy who was about to forget his master.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Wan'er didn't see Xiaoqiu the next day, so she came over.
Because of the previous incident, Zhao Wan'er was very grateful to Xiao Ling, so when she treated Xiao Ling, she naturally didn't treat other subordinates like she did.
first said hello to Xiao Ling, and was about to ask about Xiaoqiu.
But it happened that because the martial arts hall was closed that day, Zhao Xu came to play with Xiao Ling early in the morning.
For this reason, he also specially instructed the strict housekeeper to give Xiao Ling a day off.
And when Zhao Wan'er arrived, it happened that her younger brother was playing backgammon with Xiao Ling.
Zhao Wan'er naturally didn't know what that backgammon was, and when she saw that her brother was so playful, her pretty face suddenly sank, and she was ready to open her mouth to reprimand Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu was originally having a good time, but suddenly his sister appeared in front of him, and he was so frightened that his chubby little hands shook, and the whole person suddenly shrank behind Xiao Ling.
Although Zhao Wan'er was angry that Zhao Xu was not doing his job, when she saw Xiao Ling here, she also suppressed the anger in her heart.
After all, Xiao Ling saved herself, and Zhao Wan'er still had to give Xiao Ling some face.
Seeing the appearance of this sister and brother, Xiao Ling was also very embarrassed.
There is no way, who let him be caught by Zhao Wan'er and is instigating her brother's plaything to lose his mind.
However, Xiao Ling's mind was racing, and he came up with a wording in an instant.
Zhao Wan'er can be regarded as knowing Xiao Ling's personality a little, and knows that Xiao Ling is not the kind of person who talks about it, so she patiently listens to Xiao Ling's explanation.
Fortunately, Xiao Ling is playing backgammon with Zhao Xu right now, so Xiao Ling explained to Zhao Wan'er in a hurry that he was cultivating Zhao Xu's intelligence.
After Xiao Ling finished speaking, she saw that Zhao Wan'er didn't believe it, so she asked her to play a game with herself.
Although Zhao Wan'er is not very proficient in Xuanqi, she is also a famous talented woman in the Sea City.
So just a brief introduction, Zhao Wan'er quickly figured out how to play backgammon.
Then, Xiao Ling and Zhao Wan'er began to play against each other.
Zhao Wan'er originally didn't care about this kind of little thing at all, but gradually, when he lost to Xiao Ling ten games in a row, Xiu's eyebrows gradually wrinkled.
This Zhao Wan'er looks gentle, weak and meticulous, but in her bones, she is the same as her younger brother Zhao Xu, and she has the same idea of not admitting defeat.
Some unbelieving and evil played another game with Xiao Ling.
Seeing the beauty in front of her, pursing her lips and staring at the chessboard on the table with her eyes, Xiao Ling was also secretly amused.
However, looking at Zhao Wan'er's appearance, Xiao Ling's heart was suddenly settled, obviously this girl was also deeply attracted by this novel backgammon.
It's just that Xiao Ling didn't plan to let Zhao Wan'er like Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu is just a child, if he blindly lets him lose, who knows if this little fat man will ignore him in a fit of anger.
In that way, everything you have done so far will not be in vain.
Therefore, when playing backgammon with Zhao Xu, Xiao Ling will still occasionally inadvertently lose one or two games.
This can not only let Zhao Xu taste the sweetness of victory, but also will not let him lose interest too quickly.
But Zhao Wan'er is different, Zhao Wan'er is also an adult, and she is a famous talented woman, gentle and generous, so she naturally can't afford to lose.
In order to make Zhao Wan'er admit that this backgammon is a brain-opening intellectual game, Xiao Ling also racked her brains to win against Zhao Wan'er.
I have to say that this Zhao Wan'er is indeed worthy of the title of a talented woman, but after playing three or five games, she has already mastered the essence of this five-in-a-row chess.
If it weren't for Xiao Ling's years of experience, it would not be easy to win against Zhao Wan'er.
After playing a few more games, Zhao Wan'er finally put down the chess pieces in her hand, and then asked suspiciously: "Who knows this five-in-a-row, it's so interesting." ”
Zhao Xu, who was on the side, saw his sister asking like this, and said flatteringly: "This is Brother Xiao Ling's Ming, sister, you don't know that Brother Xiao Ling also knows a lot of interesting things, if you take it out, you must not have seen it." ”
When Zhao Wan'er heard this, she first glared at Zhao Xu fiercely, and then said: "I know how to play all day long, if I don't work hard, who will inherit this huge Zhao family in the future!"
Zhao Xu was reprimanded by Zhao Wan'er like this, and couldn't help shrinking his neck.
Seeing this, Xiao Ling on the side couldn't help but protect Zhao Xu and said: "Miss, you have seen it just now, this backgammon is not a simple game, it can help improve wisdom when played often, since the little boy likes it, I think you should support it." ”
After a pause, Xiao Ling said again: "The little boy is also very hard to learn Xuanqi on weekdays, but blindly burying his head in penance is not the best way, occasionally you still need other things to adjust, in order to achieve the combination of work and rest, if you blindly focus on cultivation, with the age of the little boy, I am afraid that it will not take long to lose interest, so it will not be worth the loss." ”
Zhao Xu saw Xiao Ling speaking for him, and he also smiled, and then hurriedly nodded his round little head like a chicken pecking rice, and said in agreement: "Yes, sister, you don't know, I feel that my Xuan Qi seems to have made a lot of progress recently, I didn't just break through the third stage of Xuan Qi two days ago, and I was praised by the master." ”
Hearing the two of them singing and harmonizing, Zhao Wan'er couldn't help but feel a little funny in her heart, and then thought about it, it seemed that what Xiao Ling said also made some sense.
But the pretty face still pretended to be majestic, and said to Zhao Xu: "Okay, you've been playing for most of the day today, so why don't you go back to cultivation soon." ”
When Zhao Xu heard this, where did he dare to say a word, Zhao Wan'er did not punish him, which made him extremely happy, so he naturally did not dare to stay longer, and after saying goodbye to Xiao Ling, he left in a hurry.
After Zhao Xu left, Zhao Wan'er's originally calm face also disappeared, and was replaced by a smile that seemed to be staring at Xiao Ling.
After seeing Xiao Ling uncomfortable, he said: "I didn't expect that you are not only powerful, but also have a high-ranking face, and there are so many ghost ideas in your head. ”
Smiling awkwardly, Xiao Ling scratched her head and said casually: "Miss Liao praised, it's just a little trick." ”
"Hmph, if you hadn't saved me once before, I'd have someone pull you down and eat the whip right now. Zhao Wan'er pretended to be angry and said.
In fact, in Zhao Wan'er's heart, she was more and more curious about this Xiao Ling, as if what Xiao Ling did after coming to Zhao Mansion was so incredible.
Xiao Ling's current actions always make Zhao Wan'er can't help but want to know more.
And Xiao Ling's heart was like a mirror, and she naturally heard the joke in Zhao Wan'er's tone, and then put her mind at ease and said with a smile: "I know that Miss is not the kind of person who is quite unreasonable, but what I said just now was not all to exonerate the little boy, but to tell the truth." ”
With the contact in the past few months, Xiao Ling also has some understanding of Zhao Xu, knowing that this child is almost blind worship of himself, and almost everything he says, Zhao Xu will take it as the truth.
This made Xiao Ling, who planned to use Zhao Xu at the beginning, also ashamed.
However, he did not change his original intention, and he was determined to learn that Xuanqi.
And then, it was obvious that Zhao Wan'er was also curious by Zhao Xu's words before, so she asked Xiao Ling to take out those novelties in Zhao Xu's mouth and let her see them.
As a result, under this insight, the Zhao family sisters and brothers have come to Xiao Ling from time to time.
Such a result was something Xiao Ling never expected.
Soon, the entire Zhao Mansion also knew about the strange behavior of the Zhao family's sisters and brothers, which also attracted Zhao Yanping's attention.
Because Zhao Wan'er and Zhao Xu came to find Xiao Ling twice in three days, the Zhao Mansion speculated about what method Xiao Ling used to confuse the two sisters and brothers.
But they are just subordinates, so naturally they don't dare to inquire about their masters, and Xiao Ling naturally won't tell them.
As a result, these people are extremely jealous of Xiao Ling, but other than that, these subordinates have no other actions.
However, Song Bin's heart was extremely unbalanced, thinking that day, when Xiao Ling first came in, he was just a lowly woodcutter, but he didn't expect that in just a few months, his status seemed to be higher than him.
I heard that Xiao Ling has recently been diligent and extremely efficient, and Steward Yan has planned to let him start learning cooking.
After knowing the news, Song Bin was very jealous, he had been in the kitchen for three years, and now he was just a man in charge of boiling water.
And this Xiao Ling has only been here for less than half a year, and her status has improved step by step.
In Song Bin's mind, according to Xiao Ling's usual performance, I am afraid that it will not be long before he can transform himself and become a chef.
Thinking of this, Song Bin was very angry in his heart, so he tried to think of a way, wanting to teach Xiao Ling a lesson.
