After a while, when Xiao Er came up with osmanthus cake and melon seeds, the seats below were gradually full.

Like Lin Xining, the Fengya children who chose to be on the second floor have also arrived.

At this time, the noisy downstairs suddenly fell silent.

Lin Xining looked at it, and it turned out to be the storyteller from the teahouse.

This old storyteller is a little strange.

In Lin Xining's eyes, the old storyteller had a faint cyan smoke around him, and there was a fragrance of grass and trees from afar.

Dryad? Interesting.

Lin Xining saw through the true body of the storyteller at a glance, but he didn't make any movement and continued to look below.

"Huh! I'm talking about Mr. Liu! Why did I come a quarter of an hour later than usual today! ”

"Yes, Elder Liu, our whole building is waiting for you to come over."

“。。。。。。”

When the regular customers downstairs saw the old storyteller come in, they first quieted down, and then some of the regulars began to chat.

But he didn't dare to say more, for fear of delaying everyone's time to listen to the book.

When the old storyteller heard this, he just touched his beard with a smile, and then slowly walked to the storytelling platform on the first floor.

"I'm sorry, everyone, there was a sudden accident in the old family, but it has been resolved."

"Let's keep talking."

'Smack! ’

The old storyteller confessed, picked up the shocking wood on the table, and slapped it on the table.

Everyone in the teahouse immediately fell silent and looked at the stage intently.

"Last time, I said that the scholar was sitting under a big willow tree at night to rest, and in the middle of the night, the third watch suddenly heard a woman's crying voice......."

The old storyteller continued with the story he had told yesterday.

Lin Xining naturally listened carefully.

Listen to the story, naturally, you have to be serious.

……

Soon, time passed quietly in the story of the old storyteller.

As the crowd was immersed in the story, they heard 'Bang! '

The old storyteller slapped the startled wood and pulled everyone out of the story.

"How things are going and let's see how they break down next time."

That's it, the old storyteller ignored the people downstairs and wanted to leave.

Seeing this, Lin Xining leaned on the railing and took out a white bottle from his sleeve.

"The old gentleman stays, and I have something to find the gentleman in the future."

"Since Childe invited, the old man will go up and talk to you."

In fact, when Lin Xining took out the white porcelain bottle, the old storyteller didn't leave.

When he saw Lin Xining inviting him to go up, he immediately nodded with a smile and agreed, and then arched his hand with everyone downstairs, and slowly walked upstairs.

"This young master, you don't know what is the matter with the old man?"

It's all next to Lin Xining's table, and the dryad is still pretending to be confused.

Lin Xining smiled and pointed to the chair opposite him.

The green pig who was originally sitting there had already stood behind Lin Xining when the tree demon came up.

"Sit down, let's talk."

The tree demon was not afraid of Lin Xining's trouble, so he sat straight on the chair, and then added a cup of tea to himself.

"What is the matter with this son looking for the old man, the old man still has something to do at home, but he can't delay here for too long."

Hearing this, Lin Xining put the white porcelain bottle in his hand on the table, and then uncorked the bottle.

A fragrance suddenly came to my face.

As the old storyteller of the tree demon, his whole body is straight, and his face is a little covetous.

"With such a rich essence of plants and trees, Childe is really a god."

Lin Xining chuckled, and then pushed the bottle to him.

said: "I am only a dryad, and only the stories you tell are true. I'm very interested in what you call the demon world. ”

"You take me, this bottle of grass and wood essence is yours."

"This ......"

The dryad looked at the grass and tree spirit that was close at hand, and silently compared the two things in his mind.

The essence of plants and trees is naturally a great tonic for it.

But the demon world is also very important to it.

It didn't know what Lin Xining wanted to do in the demon world, and he still had other intentions to get rid of the demons.

Lin Xining saw the entanglement of the tree demon, and his fingers casually tapped on the railing.

"Two bottles of grass and tree essence, take me to the demon world. I wouldn't do anything to the spirits of the demon world, just curious. ”

"Really?"

The dryad was moved, and raised his eyes to look at Lin Xining seriously.

"Seriously."

Lin Xining took out another white porcelain vase from his sleeve and put it together with the porcelain vase on the table.

"Good! I'll take you. You can only stay there for one day, though. ”

Lin Xi would rather nod dispensably, whether he will stay or not when the time comes, it is not his final say.

The tree demon saw that Lin Xining was young, and he was a little disapproving, but when he saw that Lin Xining agreed, he carefully took the two porcelain bottles in his hands.

"I'll take you tomorrow morning, and I'll come over in the afternoon to read a book."

"Yes."

With that, Lin Xining stood up and left with Qingfeng.

The dryad shouted again, "Childe! See you at the gate of the East City tomorrow! ”

Lin Xining heard it, wrote down the time, went out of the teahouse, and went to Fanglanzhai on the adjacent street to buy a box of pastries and go back.

……

Lin Xining returned to the mansion, and Xiao Li, who had gone to dispose of the corpse of the red fox, also returned. As soon as Lin Xining walked to his courtyard, he saw Xiaoli walking around at the gate of the courtyard.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xining's voice sounded in Xiao Li's ears.

Xiao Li heard the voice and turned around, and saw Lin Xining carrying a pastry box followed by a strange little guy.

I didn't have time to think about anything else, so I said in a panic: "Third Young Master, Mrs. Mei is back." ”

"Got it."

The Mrs. Mei in Xiao Li's mouth is Lin Qingyuan's favorite concubine, and when the original mother, that is, the dead red fox, did not cheat to death, the limelight of the main wife was suppressed by this Mrs. Mei.

You must know that the fox cultivates a spell that charms people, and this Mrs. Mei can suppress the original mother who is a fox demon, which is really not a simple role.

In this way, Lin Xining couldn't help but start to guess whether this Mrs. Mei would also be a monster. It's worth scrutinizing.

"Third young master, as soon as Mrs. Mei came back, she instigated the lord to marry the dumb daughter of the king of the west of the city to you. Think of a way to refuse! ”

Xiaoli saw Lin Xining's calm face, and was about to cry in a hurry, so she anxiously told the matter and asked Lin Xining to find a way.

Hearing this, Lin Xining glanced at Xiao Li, who was about to cry, and then waved his sleeves.

"What's the hurry? How could my father have asked me to marry a mute wife. ”

It is indeed impossible for Lin Qingyuan to ask Lin Xining to marry a mute as his wife, because he himself is very good-looking, even if he doesn't like Lin Xining, he will not allow a dumb person to enter the mansion.

Therefore, after hearing Mrs. Mei's suggestion, Lin Qingyuan resolutely refused, and said: "San'er is still young, so Mei'er shouldn't worry about his marriage." ”

"You've been in the 'Changle Temple' for a year to recuperate, and you won't care about the mess in the house just after you come back."

"Let's go back and rest."

"Yes."

Mrs. Mei was a little unhappy when she saw that Lin Qingyuan's proposal to come back was rejected by Lin Qingyuan, but she still responded obediently and gently, and then returned to her yard.
