Volume 2, Temple Rivers and Lakes Chapter 64, Taojia Town Peach Blossoms

Zhao Zhengli seems to have a misinterpretation of the word "Xiaoyao", no matter how you look at Chen Xiaoyao, he is not as carefree as in the people of the rivers and lakes, although he is not as handsome and good-looking, but he is better than the middle-aged charm of the elderly, but the tricks of wealth fans are the same, only take more than 100 taels and talk about it all morning, and it is not that he does not return him, and he is looking for death and life all the way.

The two of them call each other brothers on the surface, but in fact, they are speculating about each other's Taoism, sometimes you chase me, sometimes you compete with each other, and they are interested in living a trick and a half in the sea of mountains and wild flowers, startling the petals all over the sky.

At a certain moment, Zhao Zhengli was thinking, could this guy be unable to understand his own strength, so he tried it in the name of "making friends", and then found an opportunity to plot against himself, and finally took it to the court to exchange for reward money and get a hereditary title?

After all, how could this guy deduct and search for money, how could he lend himself money generously? You can't give up a small amount of money and get a lot of money!

Thinking about it; Zhao Zhengli's vigilance arose.

Chen Xiaoyao roared in front of him without knowing it: "When I arrive in Taojia Town, I want to drink peach blossom brew, and the price of this wine is yours!" ”

Zhao Zhengli did not answer.

Then he asked: "Brother Zhao, I heard that the three saints of the temple went to the East China Sea to find the immortal island, and asked for the spiritual herb immortal medicine for the old emperor to continue his life!" Do you want to make trouble so that the old emperor can burp sooner? If the new emperor ascends the throne and grants amnesty to the world, you will also escape such a brother! ”

Zhao Zhengli was shocked in his heart, it seemed feasible, but he still didn't answer, because he was thinking about a detailed strategy.

"Hey! I said, are you dumb? What about pretending to be deep at a young age? By the way, it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that you entered the Egret Temple and told my brother what the mysterious Temple of Luck looked like? Is it a fairy who plays chess against you? Did you do something indescribable with a fairy? I'll tell my brother in detail! The Egret Temple has martial arts cheats, is there a way to become an immortal? ”

"......" Zhao Zhengli was dumbfounded, this guy was actually a chatter.

Chen Xiaoyao didn't feel bored talking to himself, so he put the wildflowers under his nose and sniffed: "Brother, I'm not a curious person, it's just that the money earned from "Dream Leisurely" has been exhausted, and I am planning to open a different book of rivers and lakes, and the mysterious heron temple is a good start......"

Chen Xiaoyao said to himself, Zhao Zhengli ignored it, thinking in his heart, with this guy's brain, it is estimated that he can only write the kind of happy and vengeful Jianghu Shuangwen fight in "Dream Yao", those twists and turns of intrigue are afraid that they will twist his "free" heart into a twist, in this case, he shouldn't be able to think of a complicated series of tricks to deal with himself, right?

Zhao Zhengli looked at his back at ease, and seemed to be ignorant of the "carefree" that the rivers and lakes said, thinking simply, his heart was natural and comfortable, and of course people were free!

Maybe; This is Chen Xiaoyao's "Xiaoyao"!

So, is it true that he borrowed money? Is it true that making friends is also true? Isn't it a fisherman who is very deep in the city and sprinkles bait?

The answer to him was a handful of petals thrown by Chen Xiaoyao!

Taojia Town is also called Peach Blossom Town, which is named after the peach blossoms for dozens of miles, and the surname Tao of the town is the majority, so it does not distinguish between "Tao" and "Peach".

There are hundreds of kinds of peach trees here, the flowering period runs through a whole year, completely beyond the ordinary, the general peach trees bloom in March and May, mature in June, July and August, and the varieties have hairy peaches, nectarines, yellow peaches, peaches, peaches, peaches, etc.

It blooms in June and July, and ripens in September and October.

There are also repeated grafting to extend the white peaches, beauty peaches, and chickpeaches that ripen in June and July to bloom in October and ripen in December.

In the second half of the season in the northeast, the more cold-resistant fruits are sweeter and crisper, in addition to grape winter dates, it belongs to the cold-resistant peach series of Taojia Town, but when the frost is everywhere, the purple peach and the snow peach have just passed the flowering period, and the whole growth process is in the extremely cold ice and snow climate, so it is crisp and sweet, and it also has its own strange fragrance, which is regarded as a tribute by the court all the year round, especially the purple peach, the whole body is purple, the origin of Taojia Town is in the east of Qingguo, meaning that the purple gas comes from the east, and is deeply loved by the royal family.

Zhao Zhengli knows very little, these are the decades of wandering the rivers and lakes Chen Xiaoyao introduced, he does not like to eat peaches, but the peach blossom wine is very coveted, so Zhao Zhengli led to this town, by the way to enjoy all kinds of peach blossom wonders.

The two of them faintly smelled the fragrance of pollen more than ten miles away from Peach Blossom Town, and the peach blossoms at the end of their vision were white, like the pink and delicate of a cardamom girl.

Chen Xiaoyao turned his head and looked up proudly and said, "How?" Spectacular! Didn't come in vain! There will be a beauty in the future, so I know where to bring it."

Listening to his tone, it is quite the taste of the eldest brother leading the country brother to increase the world.

Zhao Zhengli, who was coarse and coarse, did not refute either, and nodded very seriously.

Chen Xiaoyao saw that this guy finally had a reaction, and he was happy for a while and sped up his pace: "I, Chen Xiaoyao, wandered the rivers and lakes and drank a lot of fine wine, but I prefer the peach blossom brew here, you can taste it later, what is the feeling of "smelling a hundred flowers blooming, and entering the throat is so soft". ”

Taojia Town is quite poetic and picturesque, built in the peach blossom forest, except for the main street is slightly spacious, the peach trees in the rest of the streets and alleys can be seen everywhere, and even some from the attic, wall, roof, the town is crowded, very lively, all kinds of accents.

According to Chen Xiaoyao, the town is like this all the year round, all the tourists from all over the world come to visit, because of the special identity of Zhao Zhengli, the two did not go deep into the town, and found a wine shop teahouse in the alley, very dilapidated, very old, or a two-story attic, a proper dangerous building, so that the environment of the guests is scarce to pitiful, plus Zhao Zhengli and Chen Xiaoyao have a total of only three tables, this business is really alternative in the overcrowded Taojia Town.

The two of them didn't dislike it, they found a remote corner to sit down, and asked for two or three pots of peach blossom stuffing, three or two plates of peach blossom crisp, peach blossom gum, and other special pastries.

The owner of the liquor store is a man who is not confused, he looks gentle, his light beard is black and thick, he is nine feet tall and wears a plain long shirt, his figure is extraordinarily slender, and his white scarf is tied with his hair standing on the top of his head, which is quite bookish.

The boss of this year is leisurely, leaning on the rattan chair of the peach blossom tree next to the gate of the wine store, holding a book in his left hand, and a fist-sized teapot in his right hand.

The small teapot spout was pecked by him from time to time, the rattan chair shook slightly, the peach blossoms were full of trees, and the breeze blew through the scattered petals.

His mood was not affected by the dismal business in the slightest.

The wine shop is very quiet, but Chen Xiaoyao is an idle person, teaching Zhao Zhengli how to eat peach blossom crisp and how to taste peach blossom brew.

According to him, peach blossom gum is the crystal gum secreted by peach trees, repeatedly washed after picking, and then dried for several months, baked and stored with simmering, soaked in mountain spring water, it is simple to say, but in fact the process is cumbersome and complicated, the difference between advantages and disadvantages is in the control of details, and the extreme is even fine to the minute.

He said while eating in his mouth, and kept demonstrating in his hands, dipping the peach blossom gum into the peach blossom brew, and then dipping the peach blossom cake in the peach blossom gum brew, and then sniffing it before putting it in his nose, and then biting it into his mouth, he showed an intoxicated expression.

Zhao Zhengli has a kind of learning and trying, it is really unique, the aroma of flowers and wine is full of smell and taste buds at the same time, the peach blossom crisp is sweet, and the peach blossom wine is fragrant, which only makes people have endless flavors, as if drunk with the sea of peach blossoms.

The other two tables of guests, seeing them so intoxicated, were also curious to follow the trend, it was really like opening a new world, full of praise.

The boss of the reclining rattan chair put down his book, glanced at Chen Xiaoyao in the green robe and Zhao Zhengli who was coarse and coarse, and then got up and walked next to the two and sat down without hurry: "The two of you are regular visitors?" ”

Chen Xiaoyao replied vaguely: "I am, he is not!" Then he swallowed the peach blossom crisp into his throat and looked at the dilapidated attic and added: "It's the first time to come to your house, but your peach blossom brew is very mellow, if the attic is renovated, the business will definitely be booming." ”

The angry boss smiled: "I can't make a few dollars, wouldn't it be good to renovate and not get into the account for a few years, and besides, the business is too good and tiring, so I can live a good life!" ”

The two handsome sons widened their eyes when they heard this, and for the first time they heard that they didn't like businessmen who were too good at business!

It is really a "year of no confusion", thinking through and seeing thoroughly.

"Boss, your wine shop teahouse is an ancestral heirloom, right?"

"Hmm~ Theoretically!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Because I drove it myself!"

"Boss, you're bragging, this tattered attic is older than you at first glance, it's estimated that it's not eighty years but a hundred years, how old are you?!"

"Well, I guessed it accurately, the liquor store is exactly 80 years old in June this year, and it is a store that I opened in my early twenties!"

"I would venture to ask...... Boss: How old are you this year? ”

"Theoretically, thirty-eight nine."

“……”

Chen Xiaoyao felt that he was bragging, he couldn't match anywhere, this shop was eighty years old, he opened it in his early twenties, and now he is thirty-eight or nineteen years old, and he has been in the middle for nineteen years, where did he go in the middle sixty-one years?

The boss Xiao was also dizzy, and he didn't bother to explain, so he staggered back to the rattan chair with the expensive blood-red purple clay pot.

The two of them were nearing the end of the pastry wine, but the remote alley was inexplicably noisy, scattered more than a dozen people, all of them Jianghu guests with swords and swords, watching the tattered wine shop from afar in the alley.

Whoosh!

At the same time, several figures appeared in the attic, flying over the eaves and roof, looking down on the entire wine shop and teahouse, and the Jianghu customers in the small alleys gradually surrounded until they ensured that there were no dead ends.

Whew!

The spring breeze blew, and the peach blossom tree next to the wine shop gently swayed, blowing off dozens of petals, fluttering on the plain shirt of the boss of the reclining rattan chair.

A few tables of customers in the store have already panicked, and there is nowhere to retreat, and there is nowhere to go.

Zhao Zhengli probably knew that he was coming towards him, but he was not nervous, and ate peach blossom crisp and drank peach blossom brew as usual.

The man with a knife on the roof spoke: "Jiangnan Chen Xiaoyao, do you know that the opposite side is the son of a rebellious minister?" ”

After the handsome man in the green robe finished drinking, he flicked his long sleeves and put a smile on his chic face: "I know!" Does it affect me to ask him for a drink? ”

“……”

The man was speechless for a while, and someone else spoke: "The court has a reward for the world, and I will take his life, will you interfere?" ”

Chen Xiaoyao glanced at the handsome man in the coarse and coarse cloth who had not spoken, and then looked back at the roof: "It's hard to say! However, you seem to be overestimating yourself. ”

The man smiled disdainfully: "I'm waiting for a group of grandmasters, eight first-grade and five-middle-grade, I'm afraid that he won't be able to succeed as a grandmaster? As long as you don't interfere, you will have to play a part in this work. ”

Chen Xiaoyao no longer answered, but poked Zhao Zhengli, who was coarse and coarse cloth, with the scabbard on his waist: "Hey! You can hear it, I have nothing to do with them. ”

“……”

Only then did everyone learn that Chen Xiaoyao was proving his innocence.

Zhao Zhengli didn't answer, squinted sideways and swept the thirteen people in the alley and the roof, and then with one hand, he grabbed a handful of peach blossoms scattered on the ground, and the petals condensed into a rotating peach blossom ball in mid-air, and then he slapped it out with one palm, and the peach blossom ball shot towards several people in the alley like a meteor in an instant.

Seeing that the situation was like a great enemy, several people clenched the sword in their hands and slashed with luck, and several true qi collided so that the peach blossom ball exploded in an instant, and the peach blossom petals were like pink red blades, and "poof" burst into all directions, and each petal was really angry, and the speed was extremely fast.

Several people raised their swords and swords to make a gesture of resistance, and they were already pierced all over the body by the petals infused with true qi, eyebrows, foreheads, cheeks, eyes, throat, chest pain, arms, and thighs, none of them were spared, the petals were deeply embedded in the body, the blood flowed endlessly, and several people died instantly.

The rest of the people were shocked and retreated a few meters, throwing dozens of hidden weapons, and the old tables, chairs and benches that were hit were torn apart, but they didn't expect Zhao Zhengli to be so decisive, and they couldn't say a word.

Chen Xiaoyao raised his hand to block the close-range secret weapon with his true qi, and scolded: "Uncle, let me know, scare Lao Tzu!" ”

Zhao Zhengli pulled out purple from his back. Yang Jian said: "The three on the left are for you, and the two on the right are for me, if you are a brother, you will help!" ”

Chen Xiaoyao was dissatisfied: "This is a threat, this is naked intimidation!" Didn't I help you become an accomplice, and you will be wanted by the imperial court! ”

Zhao Zhengli had already swept up the roof: "Otherwise, I won't pay back!" ”

Chen Xiaoyao helplessly stretched out his hands to a few people on the roof: "You also heard, I was forced, why don't you let him go for the time being today?" Wait until I pay back the money before killing him? ”

Those few people didn't have time to explain, Zhao Zhengli had already carried a sword to kill, and everyone directly surrounded him, Chen Xiaoyao was entangled left and right for a moment, pulled out the thundering knife of the thirteenth armor of the weapon spectrum on his waist, and jumped onto the roof.

The two tables of trembling guests in the room only heard the sound of "poof" like cutting melons and fruits, and then five or six corpses fell down one by one, thirteen corpses fell horizontally and vertically, and faintly heard the sound of "whooshing" flowing water, there is no stream here, and the flow is naturally blood!

The boss who was lying on the rattan chair from beginning to end didn't move, and when everything was over, he raised his eyes slightly and said: "What a fast sword, what a fast knife!" ”

The two jumped off the roof, and he added: "Two tables and chairs, four benches, thirty-seven tiles are rotten, three peach blossom branches are broken, a total of nine taels and eight yuan, the corpse can be disposed of by itself, of course, you can also find a small town coffin shop to clean it up!" ”

The two were dumbfounded, this boss is a master? Or are you old fritters who are used to fighting in the rivers and lakes? is so calm, the rules are clear!

It seems that the quotation is very dark, Chen Xiaoyao is not grinding, he scavenges all over the corpses, and takes out dozens of taels scattered, and he is very generous to throw the boss with two of the largest broken silver, estimated that there are more than ten taels, and the boss is not polite, after weighing it, he put it in his arms, indifferently shook the rattan chair, looked at the books, and pecked the blood-red purple sand spout.

Chen Xiaoyao hurriedly put the remaining broken silver and copper plates into his sleeve robe, and he didn't forget to glance at Zhao Zhengli who was coarse and coarse cloth on the side, for fear that he would be wiped off by someone if he was not careful.

A plain old voice came from the alley: "The 100,000 gold of the imperial court is really hard to get, and the hereditary title is really rare!" ”

Except for the boss who was not confused, everyone was looking for prestige, he was an old man who was more than half a hundred, he walked slowly down the alley, his cloudy eyes stared at the handsome man with coarse linen cloth, Zhao Zhengli only felt a strong coercion locked him in an instant.

The bookish boss lying on the rattan chair stretched his waist, and with a light "ah~", his muscles and bones stretched and crackled, and the coercion that locked Zhao Zhengli was gone. The coercion just now is a real great grandmaster, that is to say, this middle-aged boss is also above the great grandmaster, why is the great grandmaster so worthless?

For the first time, the half-hundred-year-old man showed surprise: "You are the owner of the Peach Blossom Village who can't cultivate peach blossoms, Tao Yanghua?" ”

The boss rubbed his stubble and said to himself: "No wonder the hexagram shows that it is not easy to open the door today!" The year's worth of new things has come together! ”

For the first time, the old man saluted the middle-aged boss in a respectful tone, and his posture was very humble: "I heard that the owner of the peach blossom village has realized that the peach blossom fairy will not fall in the reincarnation of two jiazi years, and now hundreds of peach blossoms bloom all over the four seasons, and the flowers alternate, which can be regarded as "flowers do not fall", I don't know if there is a harvest for "immortals"? ”

"Not much! Small gains. ”

The owner of the peach blossom village got up from the rattan chair at this moment and patted the peach petals that fell on his body with the scroll in his hand.

Zhao Zhengli and Chen Xiaoyao were stunned, the peach blossoms that bloom all over the four seasons for dozens of miles are also planted by the boss? At the age of thirty-eight or nineteen, he couldn't do it at all, listening to the old man's tone of exchange, he was using the reincarnation of two jiazi to realize that he would not fall into the peach blossom fairy.

One Jiazi is reincarnated, two Jiazi is one hundred and twenty years, and the boss is at least an old monster who is more than 100 years old, why is it not the appearance of the fairy wind Dao bones, just because of the reincarnation of one Jiazi?

So, the boss didn't brag nonsense? Is the wine shop teahouse really opened by himself?
