Chapter 14: Luochen County, the eldest daughter of the Guo family will marry
I have to say that Liu Muyun's cooking skills are still good, sweet and sour, spicy, everything, with a pot of spirits, it has a unique taste.
Especially the plum blossom cake, it is soft and delicious, the sweetness is moderate, it is not soft or hard, it is very sweet, and there is a dense plum blossom aroma.
"Brother Chen, the food cooked by my little sister is quite delicious?"
Liu Muyun, who was always standing next to her, asked carefully.
"Yes, this meal is the most delicious I've had in sixteen years."
Chen Yuan was telling the truth, for sixteen years, he had always been an ordinary mortal in that mountain village, starving and freezing every day, living a life of hunger and hunger, until three months ago, he was able to get rid of the invasion of bandits.
"You can sit down and eat together, too. By the way, I'll tell you something. ”
Chen Yuan doesn't need a maid, let alone a maid. The reason why he agreed to Liu Muyun's follow, in addition to what happened in the past two days, was also because of Liu Muyun's persistence and the fate of the two of them.
They were also monks at the bottom of the monk world, and Chen Yuan had no reason to object to the existence of a helper.
To say that Chen Yuan is to help Liu Muyun solve the trouble of "Furnace Ding" is actually too big. With Chen Yuan's current character, he will do what he can do, and if he can't do it, he will choose to run away without hesitation.
"Miss Liu, it's not that I, Chen Yuan, am ruthless. Your constitution is like a thunderbolt that can explode at any moment, and you will always provoke an unstoppable enemy. Whether Guo Hao, or your master, or other strong people, they will all covet your physique. ”
"In order to protect yourself, you choose to practice together. Your suffering is understandable below. However, if the strength is low, there will also be concerns about life. So, if you want to join you in the fight against possible enemies. We must covenant on three chapters. ”
Liu Muyun naturally understood the meaning of Chen Yuan's words, and said, "Although Brother Chen says yes, Little Sister will definitely abide by it." ”
"First, no matter where the two of us go, once we plan to stay, our residences must be more than 100 feet apart. Second, when there is no one, you can call me Brother Chen, and in front of outsiders, we are commensurate with Taoist friends. Thirdly, if I'm in retreat and don't worry about my life, you don't need to bother. ”
Chen Yuan's three agreements seemed to be mostly planned for himself, but he was also taking care of Liu Muyun. Lonely men and widows live together all year round, and it is inevitable that they will have feelings, and they may even cross the thunder pool.
Chen Yuan is not the kind of person who is cold and ruthless, once the affection reaches the necessity, he will do what he has to do.
But the current situation is that neither of them can guarantee the safety of their lives, and only by relying on each other can they go further.
The residences are separated by a hundred feet to protect the secrets of the two. Calling each other friends in front of outsiders is to avoid setting themselves on fire.
As for the last one, it was the last barrier that Chen Yuan had made for himself, and he was really unwilling to use his humble strength to fight against those strong people who were far superior to him.
"Good. The little sister promised Brother Chen's three promises. However, Brother Chen also has to abide by the three agreements of the younger sister. First, when you can't be in love, Brother Chen can't use me as a support to break through the confinement, no matter what. Once the love arrives, there is no need for Brother Chen to say, the little sister will take the initiative to dedicate herself. ”
"Second, there are too many people who covet Xiaomei's body, once Xiaomei encounters life worries, I hope that Brother Chen can come forward. Of course, if the other party's strength is too strong, Brother Chen can choose to sit idly by. ”
"Third, little sister, although my physique is blessed with cultivation in terms of cultivation, I also need some special items, such as a century-old cold jade. Once Brother Chen meets him in the outside world, he still needs Brother Chen to give up his money and prepare more for his little sister. ”
The three chapters agreed, but Chen Yuan did not agree verbally, but he also nodded.
After a delicious meal, Liu Muyun consciously returned to his room, and Chen Yuan also began to cultivate all night.
The next morning, the wind and the sun are beautiful, and the early morning in the Tingxi Bamboo Garden has the charm of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
However, Chen Yuan was not in the mood to appreciate everything in front of him, he planned to go to Luochen County. Guo Hao's Guo clan is a small immortal cultivator family in Luochen County.
After saying goodbye to Liu Muyun, Chen Yuan walked out of Tingxi Bamboo Garden alone.
All the way through the forest and through the mountains, it was not until noon on the second day that Chen Yuan arrived at Luochen County, one of the ten major counties in the Northern Regions.
The bustling streetscape, the crowds, the galloping horses and the slow-moving carriages all prove the extraordinary nature of this riverside city.
Whether it is a vendor on the street, or a mortal with a sword and a satchel, everyone is dressed in brocade and silk, just like the scene of the prosperous world, which makes people linger and forget to return, and they are willing to feel the ups and downs for themselves.
Once upon a time, Chen Yuan also dreamed of coming to such a prosperous city, to be a chivalrous man who fought for righteousness and revenge, or to be a merchant with fine clothes and food.
Fate played tricks, when Chen Yuan came to the bustling city, he had already embarked on a road against the sky that was different from that of mortals in the world.
Walking on the bustling streets, Chen Yuan felt as if he had returned to the mortal world.
Suddenly, three fierce horses came from the south of the street, and everywhere they passed, chickens and dogs jumped, and people turned on their backs.
As a monk, Chen Yuan naturally wouldn't be touched by the horses that came quickly, but the stall vendors around him were not so lucky, not only the cloth on the stalls was scattered, but also the stall owners rolled to the ground, stained with mud.
"This Guo clan is becoming more and more arrogant, isn't it just that a disciple was selected by the Heavenly Demon Sect? Since they are rampage in this Falling Dust County! ”
The trader wanted to scold, but he swallowed back the swear words, how could he, an ordinary mortal who sells cloth for a living, dare to provoke the Guo family, who is a family of immortal cultivators.
Chen Yuan naturally heard the words from the vendor's mouth, but he didn't ask, but walked to the largest restaurant in Luochen County.
In a bustling city, restaurants are the best place to find out the news.
The reason why I chose this restaurant called "Tianxia" is that in addition to the fact that he has the most people, the most important reason is that it is opposite Guo's mansion.
After going up to the second floor and sitting down by the window, Chen Yuan ordered some simple drinks and food, and began to eat aimlessly.
Among the restaurants where people came and went during the period, the most mentioned was the news about the eldest daughter of the Guo family marrying the Heavenly Demon Sect.
"Have you heard, the reason why the Heavenly Demon Sect chose the eldest son of the Guo family is because they have taken a fancy to the eldest daughter of the Guo family. The eldest daughter of the Guo family is a mortal who has not cultivated, and she married into the Heavenly Demon Sect, so I don't know what kind of fate she will have? ”
"What fate can there be. The Heavenly Demon Sect is not a decent family, and what they cultivate is all inhumane demonic skills. I heard that not only was the eldest daughter of the Guo family forced to marry, but many young girls had been lost in the county recently. It is likely that they were taken captive by the Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
"That's right! I heard from the elders in my family that the demon cultivators have practiced a kind of magic skill that collects yin and replenishes yang, and kidnapped the girl in order to improve the cultivation of the demon cultivator. ”
"Hey...... Poor thing. They are all seventeen or eighteen yellow flower girls, and they were ruined by demon cultivation like this. ”
Combined with the cloth vendor's rhetoric and the discussions of the drinkers in the restaurant, Chen Yuan basically concluded that the Guo clan had hooked up with the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Although it is not certain whether the words in the mouth of the drinker are true, the pedestrians coming and going on the street and the colorful Guo Mansion have proved that something big will happen to Guo in the near future.
Chen Yuan was drinking leisurely in the restaurant, looking out the window from time to time, and from time to time he could see a magnificent carriage entering the Guo Mansion.
Until late at night, when the drinkers were about to disperse, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky above Guo's mansion.
The figure stepped on the beam of the house, jumped three feet, and after entering the depths of Guo's mansion, he did not come out for half an hour.
"This person has no cultivation, he should be a chivalrous man who walks the rivers and lakes."
Although Chen Yuan's divine sense had not been systematically cultivated, he could also judge from the aura and jumping movements of the person who infiltrated Guo's mansion that there was not a trace of aura fluctuation on the other party's body.
It's just that I don't know why this person sneaked into Guo's mansion late at night.
"Objective, it's late at night. It's time for the shop to close. ”
Chen Yuan, who was drinking and thinking, was suddenly interrupted by the shopkeeper next to him.
"I'm sorry, but I forgot the hour."
After Chen Yuan put down the silver, he was about to leave, but suddenly turned around and asked the shopkeeper who was cleaning up the table:
"Does this eldest daughter of Guo Mansion have a lot of admirers?"
"Looking at the objective appearance, I think I came here to see the face of the eldest daughter of Guo Mansion. Our eldest lady Guo of Luochen County is the most prestigious beauty within a radius of 100 miles. The sons of famous families, the sons of the sect and the disciples of the immortal family have come a lot recently, just to see the eldest daughter of the Guo family when she gets married. ”
While speaking, the shopkeeper's eyes also looked at Guo's mansion outside the window, as if he could penetrate the void and see the peerless face of the eldest daughter of the Guo family, and a drop of water stained from the corner of his mouth.
Chen Yuan smiled and basically confirmed his guess.
"Does this eldest daughter of the Guo family already have a favorite Langjun in her heart?" Chen Yuan asked again.
"Yes. How could a big beauty like Miss Guo not have her own wishful husband, it's just a pity that two hard-working people have no fate, and they can't come together because of the horizontal insertion of the Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
"Thinking about it, Zhou Changlong is not an ordinary person, as a famous swordsman in the world, he is just a mortal. If he is also an immortal with cultivation, where will it be his turn to get the demon cultivation of the Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed, feeling worthless for the two hard-working mandarin ducks.
Hearing this, Chu Lie already had his own plan in his heart.
The Guo clan sent people to ambush him, and he definitely would not let them have a good time.
And then there is the Heavenly Demon Sect, since it has kidnapped mortal girls, it has improved its cultivation with demonic skills.
This is the evil act of slaughtering the common people and killing them on a large scale.
Although he doesn't think that he is the saint who saves the common people, he still has to participate in this injustice.
Out of the restaurant, Chen Yuan came to the outside of Guo's mansion.
About an hour later, a figure jumped out of the courtyard, and Chen Yuan quietly followed.
