Chapter 40: Storytelling
On a summer afternoon, the streets are filled with pedestrians coming and going, and the heat is steaming.
In the middle of the street, Chen Ning and Zhao Mingyue stood opposite each other, their eyes met each other, and then they dispersed.
"Brother Ning's chest is ......"
Ma Changsi didn't know why, seeing that Chen Ning hadn't spoken for a long time, he thought that he was not good at answering, and was about to help Chen Ning explain clearly.
But he didn't want to, Chen Ning's eyes flickered twice, and then he hurriedly tightened his brows, pretending to be melancholy, and sighed, "This matter, it's ......a long story."
"Oh?"
Zhao Mingyue's eyes flashed with brilliance, and she said with great interest: "What's so strange, tell me about it?" ”
"Since Lord Zhao wants to listen, then I'll talk about it."
Chen Ning lowered his head slightly, not letting Zhao Mingyue see his eyes, "Actually, this is a secret of mine, but since Lord Zhao wants to know, then I won't tell it!"
When I was five years old, on a stormy night, I ran alone into the mountains and forests to play......"
Chen Ning, in line with the essence of nonsense and not needing to pay fines, made up a lie on the spot, which made Ma Changsi stunned.
The story is quite simple, probably meaning that when he was five years old, he ran into the mountains, got lost, and met an old man in white clothes.
When the old man saw him, he said that he had a fate with him and wanted to give him a great chance, so he put a golden light into his chest.
As for what it is, Chen Ning can't say clearly, but it is certain that it is a strange thing that can change his fate, just wait for the opportunity to come one day, and the mysterious thing in his chest will show its power.
"By the way, the reason why I can eat so much is also after I was five years old."
Chen Ning added.
True and false stories, coupled with his realistic acting skills, even Ma Changsi didn't hear any flaws, if he didn't know the truth in advance, he would have believed it.
Although Ma Changsi didn't know why Chen Ning didn't want to say it, he still patted his thigh hard in cooperation and shouted: "I see! ”
Then, he also said quite realistically: "I said Brother Ning, how can you eat so much, it turns out that there is such a strange fate?"
Brother Ning, aren't you just the legendary immortal blessing, if you trigger this great opportunity one day in the future, you won't be able to soar into the sky. ”
"I've thought so for years, but unfortunately the time hasn't come."
Chen Ning sighed slightly, "But don't worry, Lao Ma, as long as I wait for me to trigger the opportunity, I will definitely not forget you, a good brother, and I will take you a share." ”
"I, Ma Changsi, thank Brother Ning for his support first!"
Ma Changsi arched his hand, as if he was really in the play, and his acting skills were on par with Chen Ning.
"That's ...... so"
Zhao Mingyue's eyes widened and she looked Chen Ning up and down, "In this way, Chen Ning, you are very likely to have a magical physique, if you can embark on the path of cultivation, maybe you can really rise to the top." ”
She bowed her head slightly, thinking, "The so-called hidden dragon is in the abyss, there are no waves, once the clouds rise, the world is amazed!"
There are many opportunities in this world, all of which can make people climb to the top and stand out from the crowd, and the opportunity given by the old man in white that you heard is similar to the rumored great opportunity that has not been encountered for thousands of years......"
This girl is really easy to deceive, just say a few words at will, and she really believes it.
He didn't want to say, naturally he had his reasons.
The so-called husband is not guilty of his crimes, and the meat Tai Sui is not a beautiful jade, but it is more dangerous than a beautiful jade, so naturally it cannot be easily told to strangers.
Zhao Mingyue is not a stranger, but it is not much different.
Chen Ning breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, his eyebrows rose slightly, and he asked happily, "Really?" Dare to ask Lord Zhao, what is this opportunity? ”
"Huh?"
Ma Changsi was a little exaggerated, and said in direct surprise: "Brother Ning, this opportunity is so powerful, Lord Zhao, don't hang our appetite, please tell us what this opportunity is?" ”
Zhao Mingming was serious, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and he said in a deep voice: "This opportunity is called ...... Nonsense, also known as the sky full of clouds! ”
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Chen Ning and the others with a smile, "This opportunity is dedicated to teaching people to tell some true and false stories, which are used to coax girls!" ”
The expressions on Chen Ning and Ma Changsi's faces instantly stiffened, so synchronized, and turned into an indescribable sense of embarrassment.
Sarcasm!
What a ridicule!
The two of them performed beautifully, but they had already been seen through by others.
When Zhao Mingyue saw the expressions of the two, she couldn't help laughing, and she leaned back and smiled backwards.
"The meat in your chest is too old, Xiang Beige told me a long time ago."
When she had laughed enough, Zhao Mingyue rubbed her sore cheeks, "You don't have to hide it from me, Xiang Beige has already told me everything about you, and let me take care of you on your behalf."
Otherwise, do you think I really have so much thought about you?
Although this Qingxi County is not big, but what is very fast is that this girl wants to find two subordinates, and the guy named Wang Hu has to give me some thin noodles, even if I ask him to give me a hand, he can't ask for it, right? ”
Chen Ning only felt more embarrassed, and coughed lightly, "Then I have to thank Miss Zhao." ”
"But seriously, you tell the story well, you can do it, you two can act, it's a pity not to be a drama."
Zhao Mingyue raised her eyebrows and teased.
When it came to this, Chen Ning was frank and said with a faint smile: "My mother was a famous Hua Dan in Qingxi County back then, maybe I also inherited my mother's talent and can sing." ”
At the mention of Chen Ning's mother-in-law, Zhao Mingyue smiled for a while, as if she remembered something.
The drama is not a glorious thing here, and it is often accompanied by many peachy rumors, and if you accidentally say the wrong thing, it will make people think that you look down on people.
She was silent for a moment before she solemnly lowered her head, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to talk about your mother." I don't mean to be disparaged......"
"Lord Zhao, what is this, I didn't think about it that way."
Chen Ning smiled brightly, "I have always been proud of my mother being a famous character. ”
The famous Jiaoer of Qingxi County, most of the men in Qingxi County were crazy about their mothers, which was indeed Chen Ning's pride.
It is also the pride of Chen Jiawang.
"But you do have a talent for acting."
Zhao Mingyue smiled awkwardly and diverted the topic, "Our Legalist family has a small technique called Wangqi, which can be seen by observing the fluctuation of a person's breath to see if he is lying.
Just now, when the two of you were acting, Ma Zhukuai's breath fluctuated violently, and you knew it was fake at a glance, but your breath was as steady as a pool of water, without the slightest wave, if I didn't know the truth, I would really be hidden by you. ”
"Really?"
Chen Ning also smiled a little embarrassedly.
Zhao Mingyue suddenly realized that this topic didn't seem to be very good.
She changed her words again, "But that Rou Tai Sui has greatly improved you, your current strength has actually reached about eighty-five forging, if you use Rou Tai Sui, you will also have a fight with the martial artists of the Second Realm." ”
"Eighty-five forged?"
Chen Ning was quite surprised, and secretly clenched his fists, feeling the power in his arm.
During this time, he really felt that his strength and reflexes had improved a lot, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.
From the day Rou Tai Sui entered the body, it was only five days to be full, and he actually raised his strength by nearly forty forgings?
This is a terrifying boost!
Not to mention that in Qingxi County, even if you look at the entire Great Qin Heavenly Dynasty, you have to be regarded as a first-class genius.
"I'm a mother!"
Ma Changsi opened his mouth even more in surprise, "Brother Ning, are you knocking the golden gun and not pouring the pill?" It's stronger than the medicated bath that my dad bought for me! How could the martial arts realm rise so fast? ”
"Don't be open-mouthed!"
Chen Ningbang snorted, and flicked Ma Changsi's brain with a bang, "In front of Lord Zhao, how can you say such nonsense?" ”
"Slip of the tongue, pure slip of the tongue!"
Ma Changsi smiled, rubbed his forehead and turned his head.
"The golden gun doesn't pour pills? Is it a body forging elixir? ”
Zhao Mingyue muttered in a low voice, looking at the strange expressions of the two, as if she didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask.
After all, it is extremely impolite to rashly ask about other people's sects' secret medicines.
She just secretly made up her mind, if she had the opportunity, she would find out what the secret medicine of this Golden Gun Pills was, and she could have such a fast speed to improve the realm of forging the body.
"Lord Zhao, let's stop standing here, let's go to Ma's house to ask about the situation first?"
Chen Ning turned his head and asked.
"It's fine."
Zhao Mingyue nodded, "This meat Tai Sui in your body, if you can use less, you will use less, although your current state is extremely rare, and I have never heard of it, but the meat Tai Sui is always an evil thing, and it is always right to use less." ”
"Thank you, Lord Zhao, for reminding me."
Chen Ning arched his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He looked at Zhao Mingyue's back moving forward in a chic manner, and his perception of this girl changed slightly.
Curiosity is heavier, and there is always some competitiveness, but people are not bad after all.
"Brother Ning, what are you in a daze? Let's go! ”
Ma Changsi patted Chen Ning on the shoulder and urged him to follow Zhao Mingyue.
In the warm sun of a summer afternoon, a girl carrying a five-foot knife led two teenagers in soap robes through the sea of people and disappeared at the end of the street.
……
After the three of them walked away, in the herbal tea shop next to them, an old Taoist priest wearing a cyan Taoist robe and holding a Taoist bun walked out.
The old Taoist priest looked ordinary, and there was nothing outstanding about it, so he couldn't attract the attention of any passers-by.
"Xiaoge has thousands of choices, why did he choose such a stupid boy?"
The green-robed old man looked at the direction in which the three of them left, and muttered, "However, his righteous son has some meaning, if he can be included in the door, he is a good seedling."
Wangqi hasn't closed his disciples yet, so it's not impossible to give him an opportunity. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers and began to calculate.
At first, the expression of the old man in the green robe was normal, but as his fingers pinched faster and faster, the expression on his face gradually became solemn, and after half a sound, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Finally, there was a sudden soft sound between his fingers, and the thumb pressed on his index finger popped away!
The old Taoist priest's hand couldn't stop trembling, even if it was his big body that was enough to move mountains and resist Yue, he couldn't control it.
"How could this kid be blocked by someone?"
The old Taoist priest frowned, and turned his head to look in the direction of the barren mountain outside the city, "Is it his reason that affects the calculation?" No, he's not awake yet...... Why is that? ”
After thinking for a long time to no avail, the hand of the old man in the green robe stopped trembling and withdrew his gaze.
"Herbal tea is good."
The old Taoist priest then put down a small piece of broken gold, said to the owner of the herbal tea shop, and walked out of the herbal tea shop.
"Dao Chief, you have given too much!"
When the boss saw the small piece of broken gold, he was stunned and hurriedly got up to chase it.
But when he goes out, there is still the figure of the old Taoist priest in the green robe.
"What's that Taoist like to be?"
The young boss pinched the piece of broken gold, looked at the crowd blankly, and suddenly couldn't remember the face of the old Taoist.
"That Taoist leader has clearly talked to me for a long time, why can't he remember?"
The young boss patted his forehead, he really couldn't remember, shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, and went back to the shop to start working.
……
……
At the door of Liyun Zhai, the bamboo shadow swayed gently.
In front of the empty street, the light and shadow fluctuated, and a figure suddenly appeared, covering the bamboo shadow.
The old man in the green robe looked up at the plaque of Li Yunzhai, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, "Su Ziyou, this little guy is becoming more and more decent, and his words are written like that old guy." ”
The sound of reading aloud in the study paused for a moment, then sounded again.
Su Ziyou walked quickly to the door of the study and saluted to the visitor, "Su Ziyou has seen the Qingxin seniors, please go into the cold house for a while." ”
