Chapter 32: The Wounded Heart
After the arrangement was completed, there was a knock on the door, and the shopkeeper put the dishes and wine on the table, Jiang Shaoli raised his glass and said: "Senior Sister Tang, this time I came to Tianji Island, thanks to the care of the elders of the Tang family, the day after tomorrow is this apprentice ceremony, I heard that the assessment content of the apprenticeship ceremony is different every year, I don't know if there is any news about the assessment content of this year's ceremony?" I also want to ask Senior Sister Tang to take care of her. ”
Tang Jiaojiao smiled when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Shaoli, you are too outside, as for the content of this assessment, it must not have been announced to the outside world, but I heard the family patriarchs and elders have a meeting to mention a few words." Speaking of this, Tang Jiaojiao stopped talking, and instead raised her glass and saluted Jiang Shaoli.
Jiang Shaoli was listening to Tang Jiaojiao's words with his ears pricked up, and suddenly saw that she stopped talking, knowing that the heat had not yet arrived, so he didn't mention what he said just now, picked up the wine glass and touched it with her, and beckoned the rest of the teenagers to also toast, and introduced them to Tang Jiaojiao one by one, these teenagers are all famous Jiangbei Dao talents.
Because the Tang family has a large influence on Tianji Island, this time Jiang Shaoli and several other teenagers from Jiangbei Province came here, hoping to join Tianji Island and become disciples of Tianji Island, so they all deliberately flattered Tang Jiaojiao, and soon after a few rounds of wine toasting, Tang Jiaojiao's face was ruddy, and there was a trace of charm in her eyes, especially when facing Jiang Shaoli, she became more and more affectionate.
Tang Jiaojiao was also good-looking, youthful and lovely, and her figure was even more graceful, which made Jiang Shaoli admire for a long time, and now seeing the performance after drinking, she probably understood her thoughts, not only did she not refuse, but also gently touched Tang Jiaojiao's little hand when she poured the wine, and the girl was only slightly red, and her fingers did not move.
It's really a concubine, and the other teenagers laughed secretly when they touched their eyes.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Jiang Shaoli poured a glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, sighed, and heard him sigh, Tang Jiaojiao hurriedly asked: "Shaoli, why are you sighing, is there anything difficult?" ”
Jiang Shaoli raised his hand to hold Tang Jiaojiao's hand and said: "Senior sister, do you know, I and a few others came from Jiangbei Province to join Tianji Island and become Tianjimen people, but you also know that Tianji Island only accepts a few people every year, and there are as many as hundreds of applicants, and young talents abound, we really don't have much confidence, alas." ”
was suddenly held by Jiang Shaoli, Tang Jiaojiao's face turned even redder, but he only turned white, did not withdraw his hand, thought for a while and said: "Shaoli, according to sentiment, our Tang family and the Jiang family have always been world friends, and they are ......" Speaking of this, Tang Jiaojiao seemed to think of something shy, her face turned even redder, and she glanced at Jiang Shaoli.
In fact, what Tang Jiaojiao has never said is that she had eavesdropped on the meeting of the family patriarch and elders, in addition to hearing some arrangements for this year's discipleship ceremony, she also heard that the family was interested in marrying the Tang family and the Jiang family, and the object of the marriage was her and Jiang Shaoli.
Thinking of this, Tang Jiaojiao gritted her teeth, although the assessment arrangements of the disciple ceremony were confidential and should not be disclosed to the public, but after all, it involved her future happiness, and it didn't matter if she revealed it a little, so she glanced at the other teenagers in front of the table.
Jiang Shaoli saw Tang Jiaojiao's expression and knew that the time had come, so he hurriedly said: "Senior sister, these are all friends of the younger brother, they are like brothers, you don't need to avoid them if you have something, please teach me from my senior sister." After speaking, he shook the jade hand in his hand tightly.
Tang Jiaojiao felt the warmth of Jiang Shaoli's palm, her heart couldn't help but be hot, she pondered a little, and said: "Shaoli, let me tell you the truth, I did hear the family patriarch and elders talk about some arrangements for the day after tomorrow, but there is not much information, it is only for reference and preparation in advance, and it must be kept secret." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Shaoli was extremely excited, he had been trying his best to please Tang Jiaojiao these days when he came to the island, wasn't it just for this moment, and hurriedly said: "Senior sister, you can rest assured, please say." ”
Tang Jiaojiao said: "Shaoli, what I can tell you is that the first two items of the apprenticeship ceremony the day after tomorrow are no different from previous years, they are nothing more than two tests of qualification and willpower, and the last one means to put it there to compete, and the final result is to look at the points of the three items." As she spoke, Tang Jiaojiao's other hand pointed to the ground with her fingers.
Hearing this, Jiang Shaoli was stunned for a moment, and then his face was shocked, and he hurriedly said, "Senior sister, is this true?" ”
"This is still false, because there has been some restlessness there recently, although it is not yet the outbreak period of every ten years, but it is already a little uncontrollable, the head of the sect means that you can use this apprenticeship ceremony to completely clean it up, and three elders have been arranged, as well as the top twenty disciples, to enter there for the early cleanup."
Jiang Shaoli's expression was a little heavy when he heard this, and the other teenagers didn't understand what it meant, where the hell was there? But looking at Jiang Shaoli's expression, he obviously understood, so a few people didn't say much, Jiang Shaoli would definitely explain to them when they turned around, and several people also drank and listened silently.
For a while, the atmosphere in the private room was very heavy, and after a while, Jiang Shaoli seemed to understand something, and said: "Thank you for your guidance, I understand, I will prepare in advance these days, and I am bound to win the quota this time." ”
Seeing that Jiang Shaoli didn't show any intention of retreating after hearing the news, Tang Jiaojiao's eyes were full of light, and the hand holding him also shook it vigorously, and said: "Shaoli, you come to me before you leave, I have a few gadgets that my father gave me, I will borrow them from you when I go back, I dare not say how much I can help you, but it is definitely no problem to save your life." ”
Jiang Shaoli was overjoyed when he heard this, who didn't know that Tang Jiaojiao's father was a master craftsman, how could the life-saving things given to his daughter be mortal, with these life-saving objects, with the help of the family and the preparation of these days, he was somewhat sure of the assessment the day after tomorrow.
Soon, the atmosphere in the private room was obviously relaxed, and several young people were laughing and gossiping, chatting about some interesting things about Tianji Island and Jiangbei Province, and they were also waiting for the elders of the Jiang family to come to teach the young man a lesson.
On the other side, after Tang Jiaojiao and the others left, Feng Muchen also lost the motivation to continue cooking, and after sweeping away the remaining meals on the table, he poured two cups of tea for Mu Hongluo and himself, and said: "Thank you Sister Mu for your hospitality, I haven't had a full meal for a long time." ”
Mu Hongluo gently turned the tea cup in his hand, and said with a little resentful smile: "That's it, you can almost top three or four adults at this meal, it seems that you have to think twice about inviting you to eat in the future, otherwise it is possible to be poor by you." ”
Feng Muchen scratched his hair and said, "I have a little problem with my body now, and I am adjusting, so I will be able to eat more at this stage, so that Sister Mu will see a smile, and I will definitely invite you back if I have the opportunity in the future." ”
Mu Hongluo smiled, looked at the private room where Tang Jiaojiao and the others disappeared, and said: "Tang Jiaojiao's family has a lot of power in Tianji Island, there is an elder and two deacons are from the Tang family, you can be regarded as offending her today because of me, her person, small belly chicken intestines, I don't know where she will embarrass you later, if you encounter problems in the later stage, come to me directly, after all, today's incident is also because of me." ”
Feng Muchen drank a cup of tea nonchalantly and said: "The water comes to cover the earth, it is useless to be afraid, if there is anything that can't be solved, I will naturally seek Sister Mu's help." ”
Looking at Feng Muchen's indifferent words, Mu Hongluo was certainly not afraid of Tang Jiaojiao, but he had not joined Tianji Island as an outsider, and the meaning of the Great Elder was not clear, offended Tang Jiaojiao at this time, but it was very unfavorable to him, and I wanted to emphasize it with him again, so as not to be hurt in the future.
Just as Mu Hongluo wanted to say something, a paper crane suddenly flew outside the window, flying back and forth outside the window a few times, as if confirming something, until Mu Hongluo reached out and hit a spell on the paper crane, only to see the paper crane fly into the window and fall in the palm of her hand.
Mu Hongluo opened the paper crane a little surprised, only to hear a voice from the paper crane, it was a male voice: "Senior Sister Mu, there is something here that you need to deal with, please come to the Law Enforcement Hall as soon as possible." ”
She frowned when she heard the sound, this is a paper crane sent by a senior brother in the Law Enforcement Palace, listening to the voice, there should be something to deal with, she looked at Mu Chen, and said: "Mu Chen, there are things in the sect that I need to deal with, can you go back yourself?" ”
Feng Muchen hurriedly said: "Okay, Sister Mu, don't worry, I can do it myself." ”
Hearing this, Mu Hongluo nodded and said, "Okay, I didn't go shopping this time, after you join the sect, you can accompany me to go shopping." ”
Feng Muchen was startled, I've been shopping all afternoon, my legs and stomach are about to cramp, and I haven't gone shopping yet? As the old saying goes, don't deceive me, women are really terrible, and this physical strength is endless when shopping!
Feng Muchen looked at Mu Hongluo and smiled bitterly, and said, "Senior sister, let's talk about it next time, next time."
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Mu Hongluo covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Let's go." ”
Beckoned Xiao Er to settle the bill, and after paying the bill, Feng Muchen looked at the pile of items placed on the table and said, "Sister Mu, will I bring these items back to you?" ”
Mu Hongluo looked at him, smiled, didn't say anything, wiped these items with his hand, all the items were lost, and the wind and dust were dumbfounded, what kind of demon method is this? I want it too.
Mu Hongluo looked at Feng Muchen's expression, smiled, pointed to a silver ring on his finger, and said, "This is a storage ring, there is a small space in it to store items." ”
Hearing this, Feng Muchen's heart moved, storage ring, huh? The little tree said that it seems that it can also carve out space in the body, which can be used to store things, which is the same as the principle of a storage ring.
But there's a question, since you have a space ring, why don't you use it earlier this afternoon? So many things have been held by yourself, is this tired silly boy?
Feng Muchen looked at Mu Hongluo with a resentful expression, Mu Hongluo seemed to have thought of this problem, stroked his ring awkwardly, and said: "Okay, Muchen, I'll go first, you will go back and be careful yourself, if Tang Jiaojiao makes trouble for you, you will come to the Law Enforcement Hall to find me, and talk to the disciples on duty outside your residence, and they will tell you how to find me." ”
After speaking, she seemed to be afraid of what Feng Muchen was saying, so she didn't even walk the stairs, and flew out of the window directly, and the flying sword appeared directly at her feet, a flash, like a frightening dragon, and disappeared.
Feng Muchen raised his hand, opened his mouth, and before he could say anything, Mu Hongluo was already gone, and he was stunned, he was really a woman, but you can make it clear, why do you call me like a stupid boy!
Who will appease my wounded heart, my young heart!
