Volume 1: Ashes Chapter 169 Hmph, man!
By the time of the third watch, snow was falling outside the tavern.
At first, it was still a small snow crystal, and then it fell bigger and bigger, and before long, it was already goose feathers and heavy snow fluttering, and it was all white.
The sky and the earth are cold.
In the small tavern, it was already sparsely populated, and the customers were either drunk and left unconscious, and business entered the coldest period.
Even the shopkeeper was leaning against the counter and napping, making a slight snoring sound.
Only Ling Xiao tasted the cold, drank silently on the snow scene.
The wine is in the throat and the belly is warm.
The spirit grass wine he was drinking now had a large amount of second-order spirit grass added as an adjunct, and the wine was quite strong, but it was actually not suitable for drinking when he was staring.
Fortunately, Ling Xiao did not bury his head in drinking bitterly, and when he drank about the same, he ran like a qi gong to absorb aura.
Cycle.
Even if you're watching, you can't give up your cultivation!
Time passed silently.
When I got to the door, half a foot of snow accumulated, and the sky was faintly white.
Huang Songcheng, who was sleeping, slowly woke up.
The people slowly stepped out of the house, shoveling snow or going out, taking advantage of this time of minimal monk activity to hurry up and do their own thing.
The shopkeeper woke up sleepy-eyed, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the scene in the lobby.
As always, there were a few tables of guests who were drunk and asleep on the table.
The shopkeeper stretched his waist, quickly added a piece of clothing, and then came to the fireplace, added firewood, and burned the fire brightly.
The temperature inside the tavern is slowly rising.
Then the shopkeeper took out a broom and went to the door to sweep the snow.
As for the customers in the store, he didn't dare to wake them up.
Those monks, they didn't touch it with their dirty hands!
If he doesn't meet someone who gets drunk, he should be thankful.
The shopkeeper was clearing the snow while cursing God.
But in one night, it was the same as skimming a big strip, and so many came out!
was scolding vigorously, and suddenly heard the sound of the heavy iron door opening, and in the silent winter morning, the white on the eaves was shaken.
The shopkeeper looked curiously, and saw a pair of men and women walking out of Laojiabao not far away.
He was startled and quickly withdrew his gaze.
You can't just look at it!
In Huangsong City, Laojiabao's status is second only to the Songshan Sword Sect, and everyone knows that it is the Xiuxian family founded by Lao Yu.
As soon as this was mentioned, the shopkeeper was a little regretful.
A while ago, he went to apply for a job as a miscellaneous worker in Laojiabao, but who knew that he was a master of miscellaneous work, but he was eliminated, and all the young and beautiful women who were selected.
That Lao Yu is really the reincarnation of a pervert, I'm bah!
The shopkeeper silently sneered.
How did he know that this was the only way for the Xiuxian family to be founded, and those women who were selected, in time, would give birth to the heirs of the monks, and the sons would give birth to sons, so as to spread out.
As for the number of women to recruit, it depends on the waist strength of the head of the family.
The shopkeeper continued to sweep the snow, and the man and woman stood still not far from him, and the man didn't know what he had done, causing the woman to tremble, and she wanted to refuse and dodge.
"Giggle...... Senior Brother Xu, are you so bad, didn't Senior Sister serve you comfortably last night? The woman laughed coquettishly and said extremely explicit words.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and couldn't help but glance at it again.
I finally saw it clearly.
The man was in his early forties, richly dressed, and had a gloomy face, and even if he smiled, he gave people a sinister feeling.
The woman was very young, less than twenty years old, born with a flower and moon appearance, a pure complexion, but it was difficult to hide a trace of bewitching air in her gestures.
The shopkeeper hurriedly lowered his head and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Such a beautiful woman actually found an old man!
What a world!
The two flirted and scolded themselves, ignoring the shopkeeper next to them.
The man hugged the woman and said with a smile: "Xiaozi, after a while, I will tell Shizun to let you come out of Laojiabao, and you don't have to accompany Mr. Lao." ”
As soon as the woman grabbed his hand and put it in her heart, Chu Chu said pitifully: "Senior brother, that's okay!" You don't know how lost I feel when I can't see you......"
The man squeezed her hard, and said, "Heart? It's an itch, right? ”
The woman was ashamed and anxious, threw herself into his arms, and whispered, "Senior brother, you still talk about the wind and cold!" Every time someone else contributes, you just lie down......"
The man laughed.
After a moment, the man gently pushed her away and said, "I'm leaving." You pay attention to Laojiabao, I have greeted Mr. Lao, and he will never touch you. ”
"Senior brother, I'll wait for you ......"
The woman was reluctant and pulled at his clothes.
The man took a deep breath, calmed the feelings in his heart, and walked away quickly.
At the moment of turning around, the expression on his face once again regained the indifference of the Yin Owl, and restored the aura of his Songshan Sword Sect's left protector.
But what he didn't know was that after he left, the reluctant expression of the woman behind him was gradually replaced by disgust and unwillingness.
As for the shopkeeper, he had already run away with a broom, and he didn't dare to eavesdrop on the two of them anymore.
But even so, after only listening to a few words, the evil fire was rising in the belly of the shopkeeper, and he couldn't wait to rush into the Qinglou immediately and vent well!
It wasn't until he touched his pocket that the shopkeeper calmed down and smiled bitterly.
Let's get back to work!
He began to wipe the table and wash the floor, and used his busyness to dispel the thoughts in his heart, and suddenly, as if he had a feeling, he raised his head.
I saw by the window, the drunk guest who was supposed to be lying on the table sat up straight at some point.
The man wore a funny rabbit mask on his face, and silently stared at the gate of Laojiabao, in the direction where the woman had disappeared.
The eyes under the mask, clear and deep, how can they look a little drunk?
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, but then, there was a trance in front of him, and the masked guest disappeared immediately!
"Strange thing, didn't you wake up?"
The shopkeeper was confused, and finally looked at the empty seats by the window, then shook his head and continued to work.
……
"One, good show."
Ling Xiao leaned against the tavern wall, and the corners of his mouth under the mask curled up with a sneering arc.
He never expected to meet Xiao Zi here.
When did she join Laojiabao?
But listening to her conversation with Xu Santong, it seems that she just went to Laojiabao to help.
I have to say that after she left the Lion Trading House, she did get into the mix, not only did her cultivation improve to the sixth level of qi refining, but even characters like Xu Santong fell under her pomegranate skirt, and did not hesitate to come to her every three days.
It's just that......
Ling Xiao sighed faintly.
Can you really afford the price you pay?
"Humph, man!"
Just as Ling Xiao sighed, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
He was taken aback, and turned his head to meet the mocking gaze of the little fish.
She was standing across the street.
Seeing Ling Xiao's eyes, Xiao Yu'er sneered, "Don't you want to live?" All together, huh? ”
"Whew!"
She left a gesture of contempt and vomiting, and walked away.
