It can only be said that Longkong Xuan is worthy of being one of the signature restaurants in the imperial capital. It is a place where workers live, and the style is also high-end and elegant.

Each room is tidy, with beds, tables and chairs, and even individual screens and baths. It's much better than the average luxury inn. What's more, it's all one room for one worker, and it's well soundproofed. If you insist on a defect, it is that there are no windows and no light. But it can't be helped, because it's underground.

In general, Zhuo Yifan is still very satisfied with his temporary residence. Now that he has ten taels of silver on him, he doesn't have to worry about not having enough money for the time being. Next, just wait for your injuries to fully recover, and then go to Jiang Wang's Mansion to retrieve the remaining half of the blood puppet jade.

Of course, this qiē must be done in a low-key manner. Because Zhuo Yifan also doesn't know whether there are eyes and ears of zài "Xintiandi" in this imperial city. Although he is not afraid of things, after all, he does not know much about Xintiandi. If you accidentally provoke it, it will be a big trouble.

Zhuo Yifan cleaned up a little, and just changed into work clothes, there was a knock on the door.

"Sister He?" The spiritual power swept out of the door, and Zhuo Yifan immediately knew who was coming. He found that the restaurant steward was paying too much attention to him.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! Let's see what trick you want to play, Zhuo Yifan scolded in his heart, but his face was full of smiles, and he opened the door and asked, "Who?" ”

"Of course it's you...... After Sister ...... opened the door, Zhuo Yifan's new image made Sister He stunned. The unkempt and dirty person before, after some cleaning, looked like Sven, and the little face had clear facial features. Delicate and handsome. It is completely like two people before.

"Sister He...... Is there something wrong?" Zhuo Yifan looked at her innocently.

"There is a lack of people in the fire room to start a fire. You go and help. Follow me. Leaving these words, He Xinlan turned around and left.

Zhuo Yifan raised his eyebrows strangely, and couldn't guess what the other party meant. Anyway, he came here just to hide people's eyes, and he did the same job.

The two of them went one after the other, all the way to the fire room. He Xinlan pointed to a brick house with a beautiful appearance and said, "This is the fire room, and the hot water for the guests in the restaurant depends on this fire room." After entering. All the arrangements include work and rest time, all listen to the fire room manager, he said stop, you are allowed to stop, you know?"

"Understood, Sister He. Zhuo Yifan nodded.

"Go in and help, work hard. If something comes to me, I'm at the counter. After speaking, He Xinlan walked straight away.

Walking into the fire room, the heat is coming. It feels a little hot.

There were not many people in the fire room, only a few people sat quietly in the fire and did their own thing. Tim Chai. Then use tongs to turn the firewood, which is very boring. As if hearing footsteps, some people raised their heads, glanced at the handsome young man with a bookish appearance, and after a trace of doubt passed through the mountain in his eyes, he continued to bow his head and do his own thing.

It is not surprising that they show such eyes, because the people who work in the fire room are all muscular men without exception. These big men can't figure it out, what is such a young man with thin arms and legs doing here?

The fire room is a hot, tiring and boring place. Although the treatment is good, the heat to endure at the end of the day still deters many people.

Standing in the hot fire room, Zhuo Yifan shook his head helplessly, and just wanted to find someone to ask who was in charge, a muscular man, but he walked towards Zhuo Yifan quickly. A rough and puzzled voice sounded: "Little brother has gone to the wrong place, this is the fire room." ”

Zhuo Yifan shook his head and said with a smile: "That's right, Sister He called me here." ”

When the big man heard this, he sighed and said, "Although the treatment here is good, there are very few people who are willing to come. Last time, a few people finally came, but before the work was halfway through, I fainted from the heat. Little brother, let's go talk to Sister He and change jobs. ”

"No, it's good here. Zhuo Yifan hurriedly refused.

"Hey, okay. You can try it first. Dahan knew that he had no right to interfere, so he pointed to a fire mouth and said: "My name is Huo Village, and the manager has gone out for some things, and now I am temporarily in charge." You can work in this fire vent for the time being, and if the heat is uncomfortable, you can go outside and rest for a while. ”

"Thank you, big brother. Zhuo Yifan is still a harmless smiling face.

The big man sighed again, and didn't say anything after all. He knew it was useless for him to say it. It's better to let the boy retreat by himself, because the fire room is really not a place for people.

Ignoring everyone's strange eyes, Zhuo Yifan squatted directly to the fire and started working.

The heat here is so overwhelming that it is difficult for not only mortals but also monks. However, in Zhuo Yifan's view, this is a kind of practice.

Cultivators should be pure in mind and have few desires, and the hotter the place, the more they can temper their state of mind. At the same time, this kind of exercise can also help to dissolve the demonic nature after going crazy.

Zhuo Yifan looked at the flames flickering in the fire mouth, and was silent in his work a little bit.

In the fire room, many people were not optimistic about this newcomer at first. Because young people are impetuous, even if they have a good temperament on weekdays, in this hot environment, they will lose their heart and become restless.

However, as a few hours passed, the people in the fire room gradually changed their opinion of the boy.

"This kid is kind of interesting. A big man said.

"Yes, in the past few and a half hours, I either ran out crying and screaming at my mother, or I yelled to change jobs. This kid has lasted so long?"

"It is astonishing that we did not speak to him for hours, and that he was able to endure loneliness. ”

Several big men were chattering and discussing, but Zhuo Yifan seemed to have heard of it, in his own world, enjoying this loneliness, enjoying this loneliness, enjoying the blazing temperature brought by the fire room, and the peace in his heart like water.

This day until the evening, the fire house manager still did not show up, and finally Huo Cun announced the end of the day's work.

When they left the fire room, everyone was soaked with sweat, but they were surprised to find that the young man who had been wearing work clothes when he was working, except for his face was a little dirty, there was not even a drop of sweat on his body.

"Little brother!" someone cried out in surprise, "What's your name?"

Zhuo Yifan pointed at himself, smiled slightly, and left two words: "Lin Fan." ”

"You are Lin Fan?" Huo Cun suddenly squeezed up from behind.

Zhuo Yifan nodded uncertainly.

"It turns out that you are Lin Fan. A few days ago, when the chief manager was leaving, he told me that a person named Lin Fan would come to Longkong Xuan to work today. I was going to look for you when I was done, but I didn't expect you to come to the fire room?" Huo Cun looked at Lin Fan and said, "Brother Lin, the manager said that if you find you, please go to the manager and wait for him." ”

A few days ago, I knew that I was coming? Could it be that I was counted? Could this manager be a monk? Zhuo Yifan's heart suddenly became vigilant.

"Brother Lin, don't be nervous, I have a token here. The manager said that as soon as you see it, you will understand. Seeing this, Huo Cun hurriedly took out a black cloth from his arms, opened it layer by layer, and then handed a black thing to Zhuo Yifan, saying, "This is the ......"

Zhuo Yifan took this thing strangely and found that it was actually a pine cone.

After holding it in his hand and looking at it for a long time, Zhuo Yifan couldn't see anything strange, and finally swept it away with his mental power, and was surprised by the result! This is not an ordinary pine cone, if he sees it well, this pine cone comes from that snow feather pine!

If you want to say that besides himself, who else can be related to that snow feather pine, Zhuo Yifan can only think of one person!

He was extremely surprised that the other party had already calculated that he was coming. He actually left a pine cone as a token in advance. That old woodcutter is such a strange man!(To be continued......)
