Zhao Ziyi nodded when he heard this, and then said, "Ouyang Yu has looked for me before. ”

Cheng Yuxi paused for a moment, and then asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"He wants me to continue to be his bookkeeper after I go back from Xiao Cheng." Zhao Ziyi said.

Oh? Isn't that a good thing? Although Ouyang Yu is not the patriarch of a big family, if he becomes his bookkeeper, he must be paid no less.

But Cheng Yuxi looked at the thoughtful look on Zhao Ziyi's face, and always felt that things were not as simple as she imagined, so she asked, "Do you still have any doubts?" ”

"There are some ......" Zhao Ziyi raised his eyes and looked at the carriage in front of him, and found that it had begun to move forward, presumably the trade customs document had already shown them and obtained the qualification to enter the city.

Zhao Ziyi hurriedly said: "I'll go to the front first, Miss Cheng, we have time to talk about this matter later!" ”

Cheng Yuxi watched Zhao Ziyi ride a horse and gallop forward.

After sitting in his sedan chair, Cheng Yuxi was bored for a while, and then took out a small light blue bag from his waist, in which were placed a few golden pills, which looked small but exuded a luster of lustre.

Cheng Yuxi picked it up and threw one and ate it, and then he felt that the feeling of nausea and retching that came up to him was alleviated a lot.

The elixir in this bag was made by Cheng Yuxi with the small alchemy furnace he brought, and the raw material was the Dingshan camellia given by Ouyang Yu.

Because Cheng Yuxi didn't like to drink tea, but he was uncomfortable being shaken, so he simply refined these flower teas through the small Dan furnace he brought over, and made Sanwei Dan.

This camellia fruit is really very magical, after being made into an elixir, it is like a jelly bean, the taste is sweet and delicious, Cheng Yuxi likes to throw one into his mouth when he is fine.

The carriage swayed forward for about half an hour before coming to a halt at the foot of a large inn.

Immediately afterwards, the carriage curtain in front of Cheng Yuxi was lifted by Zhao Ziyi, he stretched out his hand at Cheng Yuxi, and then said, "Miss Cheng, come down first, it's raining lightly outside." ”

Cheng Yuxi didn't think too much about it, and after slapping his hand on Zhao Ziyi's hand, he asked, "What about those medicinal materials?" ”

"I've already entrusted someone to put it in the warehouse of this inn, and it's fine." Zhao Ziyi said, and then he propped up the oil-paper umbrella in his hand and said, "Let's go to the inn first, the rain is getting heavier and heavier." ”

Cheng Yuxi had already heard the sound of rain dripping on the surface of the oil-paper umbrella, so he said, "Okay, then let's go in quickly." ”

When Cheng Yuxi entered the inn hall, Ouyang Yu greeted him at once, and he said: "Miss Cheng, I have already arranged all the rooms here, because Miss Cheng is still a woman after all, so I have arranged a Tianzi wing room for you in the easternmost part of the inn, which is far away from the rooms of those people, is it okay?" ”

Cheng Yuxi nodded, and then said, "Mr. Ouyang has a heart." ”

When Ouyang Yu arranged the suitability of the hotel, Cheng Yuxi instructed a few people to carry their luggage and belongings, so she was bored, so she stood under the eaves of the inn, looking at the rain curtain in front of her, and the pedestrians coming and going in the rain curtain.

Maybe it's because the Wancheng Rally in Xiao City is about to be held, and people from all walks of life have already arrived in Xiao City in advance, if it weren't for Ouyang Yu's proper handling this time, I'm afraid that after they enter this Xiao City, they will have to look for a long time just to find the inn.

In addition to the people from this city, there are also some people from other cities who come and go in this Xiao City. Cheng Yuxi saw a shirtless and muscular man, with a huge porcelain jar on his head, hurriedly running to a small inn in the heavy rain, and also saw a petite girl, wearing silver jewelry from Miao Jiang, carrying a bamboo basket, walking unhurriedly in the rain.

This Miao Jiang girl has a graceful figure, and under the thick and slender eyelashes is a pair of affectionate eyes, Cheng Yuxi looked at her a few more times, and secretly felt that this girl was really beautiful, and suddenly found that from the small hole on the bamboo basket, suddenly a few cyan double-headed snakes came out, slowly lying on the girl's head, and spit out his own snake hyacinth.

Cheng Yuxi retracted his gaze with a touch, thinking that this was probably a femme fatale.

As soon as she looked around, she saw a familiar figure, holding an oil-paper umbrella standing in front of a small vendor who was about to close the stall, and after laughing and talking to him for a few words, she bought something wrapped in lotus leaves from him.

Zhao Ziyi? What is he buying?

Cheng Yuxi looked at him curiously, and saw that after Zhao Ziyi put away the lotus leaf bag, he came to Cheng Yuxi's side with an umbrella, and then, a lotus leaf bag appeared in Cheng Yuxi's sight.

"What is this?" Cheng Yuxi took the lotus leaf bag and pinched it, and found that it was still hot and soft, and he could smell the fragrance of the lotus leaf on it, as well as a sweet fragrance that he couldn't tell what it tasted like.

"Lotus leaf glutinous rice balls." Zhao Ziyi smiled and said, "I used to travel all over the world before, and I stayed here in Xiaocheng for a while, and I had a good impression of this glutinous rice cake at that time, so I specially bought it for you to taste." ”

"I have a heart, Mr. Zhao." It just so happened that Cheng Yuxi was also a little hungry, so she took apart the lotus leaf and ate the glutinous rice balls in it.

And Zhao Ziyi also looked away, he put away his umbrella, leaned against the wall of the inn with the tip of the umbrella sword facing down, and then looked at the beings in the heavy rain silently with Cheng Yuxi.

The heavy rain continued to fall until the evening, when it had a tendency to stop. Cheng Yuxi didn't sleep well all night because of the bumpy carriage, when she entered the room of her Tianzi suite and saw the dry and comfortable bed, she took off her clothes and lay down directly, and it didn't take long for her to fall asleep.

By the time she came to her senses again, it was already dark outside, and because she hadn't closed the window, the wind mixed with the rain blew in and wet her desk.

Cheng Yuxi sat up slowly from the bed, she changed into clean clothes very slowly, and then washed her face again, and was just about to go downstairs to see what the others were doing, when she heard a knock on her door.

"Miss Cheng? Are you awake? A slightly faint male voice came from outside the door.

It turned out to be Ouyang Yu.

Cheng Yuxi was a little strange, so he directly pushed open the door and said, "I'm here, what's the matter?" ”

I saw a few polite men standing behind Ouyang Yu, they all froze when they saw Cheng Yuxi, and even Ouyang Yu's eyes were full of consternation, and then he quickly closed the door, and said very helplessly: "Miss Cheng first freshen up and dress up before coming out......"

Cheng Yuxi was confused.

But in the end, she simply brushed her hair, looked at the rain outside, picked up a cloak and draped it over her body, and then slowly walked downstairs.

The whole inn was chartered for Ouyang Yu, so the inn was full of his own guys, and some of the servants of the Cheng family hurriedly rushed up to greet Cheng Yuxi when they saw him, and greeted him warmly, and Cheng Yuxi also politely went back.

After coming to the inn hall, I saw Ouyang Yu sitting on the table in the center of the inn with the few polite men from before, and several people were talking and laughing, as if they were talking about something.

When Ouyang Yu saw Cheng Yuxi yawning, he brought her over and invited her to take a seat, and then said, "Miss Cheng, let me introduce, these are some friends I have made in other places. ”

"Hello everyone." Cheng Yuxi politely said hello.

One of the men in a blue-brown shirt smiled and said, "Miss Cheng is really like a hibiscus out of the water, with a stunning appearance." ”

Others also echoed, Cheng Yuxi smiled faintly, and then said: "I don't know if you came here today, in addition to reminiscing about the past, but what is the reason?" ”

Cheng Yuxi is very smart, and he can see at a glance that the purpose of these people is not like they are simply coming to reminisce about the past.

Several other men looked at Cheng Yuxi's expression and said with a smile: "Miss Cheng is really smart and icing...... In fact, we are gathered today to exchange news about this gathering in ten thousand cities. ”

Oh?

Cheng Yuxi cheered up and asked, "Can you know this news in advance?" ”

Ouyang Yu smiled and said, "Miss Cheng should be the first time to participate in this kind of thing, the news of the Wancheng Gathering can actually be simply inferred by observing the distribution of other people and other forces, but the power of one person is limited, so we agreed to tell everyone the news together." ”

This is a good way, although Cheng Yuxi doesn't have any news to exchange with them, but Ouyang Yu has it! Looking at Ouyang Yu's confident look, Cheng Yuxi also relieved himself.

"Without further ado, let's get started." The man who praised Cheng Yuxi's shocking appearance before said: "I heard before that at this meeting, people from the Holy Snake Sect appeared. ”

Cheng Yuxi had some tea and snacks in front of her, she picked up a cup of tea and looked at it, and then listened to the person say: "The Holy Snake Sect has always disliked contact with those of us in the central circle for the next three days, but it has recently taken the initiative to appear here, which always makes people feel very uneasy. ”

Ouyang Yu pondered for a while and said, "Don't hide it from everyone, in fact, the Holy Snake Sect has been trading with the merchants on our side for a while, although the trade is all very simple daily necessities, but one of my seniors once told me that the Holy Snake Sect is no longer satisfied with the territory they occupy. ”
