Chapter 120: Consent
Just as Zhou Xingyu was talking to the Liu family and his wife, in the distance, a sturdy man was hurrying towards this side, his face was cloudy and clear as water, followed by a panting old man in green shirts.
It was the pharmacy shopkeeper and Tie Yun who hurried after learning the news.
When he walked to the door of the grain store and looked at his son and Liu Xiaomei who were fighting, the stone in his heart was finally put down.
He looked away, and soon saw Zhou Xingyu who was talking to the Liu family couple.
Lao Liu said to Zhou Xingyu apologetically: "Zhou Shaoxia, I may have to trouble you to wait a little longer, just now I have sent someone to inform the child's father, and he will be back soon." ”
He was really afraid of the group of strangers, and he was afraid that the other party would take advantage of Zhou Xingyu's departure and rush back again, but he and his wife couldn't stop each other at all.
Zhou Xingyu obviously guessed the Liu family's worries, he was about to nod, suddenly frowned, turned around and looked behind him, and what caught his eyes was a sturdy man and a middle-aged man in a green shirt with a beard.
With his advanced cultivation, Zhou Xingyu could see at a glance that the other party had a good strength, of course, this was only relative to ordinary people, for a martial artist like them who had already stepped on the second level of martial arts, the other party's strength was not worth mentioning at all.
Being squinted by Zhou Xingyu, Tie Yun instantly sensed a strong sense of crisis, as if he had encountered a large number of wolves when he entered the mountain.
That time, if it wasn't for his luck, he found a good place to hide from his body, and he almost fell into the mountains, and he still has lingering feelings when he thinks about it today.
Seeing Zhou Xingyu turn his head, the Liu family and his wife couldn't help but look over, their eyes lit up instantly, and they said loudly: "Brother Tieyun, you are back." ”
Lao Liu took a step forward, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time took Tie Yun's hands, walked in front of Zhou Xingyu, and introduced to Zhou Xingyu: "Zhou Shaoxia, this is Tie Yun, the father of Hu'er, and he is the most famous hunter in our area, but unfortunately Brother Tie Yun is no longer going to the mountains to hunt." ”
Lao Liu's voice lamented that one of the reasons why the Liu family agreed to this family affair was because Tieyun's hunting skills were very powerful, and once they entered the mountain, they sold it after coming back, which was equivalent to their family's income for more than half a year.
Considering that the relationship between the two families has always been very good, Liu Xiaomei's life will not be too bad when she marries, so she agreed to this family business.
It's just that the world has changed, and later Tie Yun actually announced that he would no longer go into the mountains to hunt.
At that time, they also went to persuade Tie Yun, but unfortunately they still couldn't make him change his mind.
Although there are some regrets, the Liu family did not deny this family business because of this, and they did not interfere in preventing the two children from playing together over the years.
'Hunters?' Zhou Xingyu groaned slightly in his heart, and instantly knew what was going on with the faint sense of crisis that had risen before him.
At the same time, he recognized this person as the person he had seen in the store earlier.
The other party is a hunter, so he can clearly explain why he knows the news of the fire reishi.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xingyu took the initiative to greet and said, "Hello, I'm Zhou Xingyu." ”
After learning that it was the other party who saved his son and had no malice, Tie Yun breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "Zhou Shaoxia, thank you so much for saving my son just now." My name is Tieyun, and I am quite familiar with this area, and I will definitely not shirk it. ”
The man patted his chest and said.
He only has a son like Hu'er, since his daughter-in-law is gone, his son can be regarded as all he has, and if something happens to his son, he doesn't want to live.
The other party's saving Tiehu is equivalent to saving his life, and this kindness cannot but be repaid.
After knowing that the little guy was fine, the old man of the pharmacy who came with Tie Yun also breathed a sigh of relief, and he said to Tie Yun: "Since the child is fine, I will go back to the store first." ”
He has an old bone, and he is really afraid of fighting, and he can't take a few punches with his body bones.
When Tie Yun heard the old man's words, he nodded and said, "Trouble you for getting old." ”
Hearing that the old man was leaving, Lao Liu and his wife also hurriedly said hello, "The old gentleman is busy leaving." ”
The old man nodded to the others, turned and walked in the direction of his shop.
When the old man left, Zhou Xingyu said: "Brother Tie, I just have something here to trouble you to help, don't worry, I will pay the remuneration on time." ”
Although it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of coercion in making a request now, Zhou Xingyu is frank in his heart, but it doesn't matter.
Hearing that Zhou Xingyu really had a request, Tie Yun nodded hurriedly and said, "Zhou Shaoxia, why don't we find a place to talk slowly." ”
After all, the Liu family and his wife still have to do business, and it is not good for them to block the door, and it is indeed not a place for people to talk here.
Zhou Xingyu nodded and said, "Brother Tie hasn't eaten yet, why don't we go to the inn and find a box and chat while eating." ”
Tie Yun had nothing to do with Zhou Xingyu's proposal, and the three of them quickly left Liu's shop and walked towards the inn.
Although Hongyao Town is relatively remote, it is rich in medicinal materials, and there are many merchants who come here to buy medicinal materials, and when the three of them came to the inn, it was already full of various merchants who came to eat.
Looking at the neat and clean inn in front of him and the various foods on the table, the little guy Tiehu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he was so big, it was the first time he came to the inn to eat.
In the past, I used to follow my father at home to make do with enough food, and my father Tieyun's hunting ability was not weak, but his cooking skills were not very good, either too salty or too light.
It's not that the family has no money to spare and is reluctant to eat well, in Tieyun's words, the money is reserved for him to marry his daughter-in-law.
When the three of them came in, the shopkeeper was busy behind the counter, and when the three of them walked in and saw the person clearly, the shopkeeper immediately put down the things in his hand, walked out from behind the counter, and came straight to the front of the three of them, and said to Tie Yun: "Captain Tie, why are you here?" ”
Before Tie Yun announced that he had given up hunting, he had managed the hunter team in the town, and in those years, Tie Yun had done a lot of great things with the hunter team, and although he retired, the old people in the town still respected Tie Yun.
Hongyao Town is just a small town, naturally there are no officers and soldiers to guard, plus it is surrounded by mountains, and it is indispensable to be attacked by the surrounding beasts on weekdays, and later after Tie Yun organized the hunters, he arranged a lot of traps around the town, which got better.
Without waiting for Tie Yun to answer, Zhou Xingyu said directly: "Shopkeeper, prepare a box for me, good wine and good food come up, I will invite Brother Tie to dinner today." ”
After speaking, Zhou Xingyu took a silver ingot out of his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper.
Holding the silver handed over by Zhou Xingyu in his hand, the shopkeeper immediately said with a smile: "There happens to be a box today, so I will order someone to bring a few people over." ”
Although I don't know why the other party knows Tie Yun and invites Tie Yun to drink, as long as it doesn't hinder him from making money, the other party is generous, thinking of this, the shopkeeper shouted loudly behind him: "Someone!" Take the three guests to the upstairs box. ”
As soon as the shopkeeper's words fell, Xiao Er walked over to this side, he bent down slightly, waved his hand, and said to Zhou Xingyu and the others: "A few distinguished guests, please come here!" ”
Zhou Xingyu nodded, took the two of them to follow Xiao Er, and soon came to an empty window hut.
As soon as a few people sat down, a man brought the corresponding tea, followed by various dishes, and after a while, a long table was full of various dishes.
"Guest officer, your dishes have been served, and this jar of wine was given to the two distinguished guests by the shopkeeper, and you are busy using it."
Zhou Xingyu waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go down first, I will call you if you are told." ”
After receiving the order, Xiao Er quickly left the box, and did not forget to gently close the door when leaving, and in an instant, there were three people left in the room.
Looking at the green, red, and golden dishes on the table, the little guy Hu'er couldn't help but swallow his saliva, Zhou Xingyu smiled slightly, and for no reason remembered the scene when he entered the restaurant for the first time.
At that time, he was still a teenager in a remote village, because his grandfather was kind to Song Qingfeng, the outer disciple of the Xuanmen, and the other party recommended him to participate in the assessment of the selection of disciples of the Xuanmen in order to repay the kindness, and then met Wang Ye, successfully entered the Xuanmen, and then apprenticed to Li Qingtai, met Li Tong, and then had a series of things after that.
In the restaurant hosted by Song Qingfeng, Zhou Xingyu had a sumptuous meal for the first time, and he was directly eaten at that time, and it took a long time to slow down.
"Don't be stunned, little guy, Brother Tie, let's go!"
Tie Hu looked at his father, and after seeing Tie Yun nodding, he began to move, he picked up a big golden chicken leg with a chopstick, and began to gnaw on it.
Zhou Xingyu picked up the wine jug on the table, poured a glass for Tie Yun, and then poured himself a glass, and then said: "Brother Tie, that's the case, we entered the city from outside the town today, and when we passed by the pharmacy before, I heard you and the old shopkeeper say that there is a fire Lingzhi in Hongyao Town, and I, now I just encounter a problem and need to use Fire Lingzhi, so I want to ask you about the Fire Lingzhi." ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Xingyu paused and continued: "Of course, as long as the news given by Brother Tie is useful, I will also give something in exchange. ”
After finishing speaking, Zhou Xingyu picked up the wine glass and began to drink, waiting for the other party's answer.
"I'm looking for fire reishi again." ’
Tie Yun sighed in his heart.
The people of the Qin family had come to him before, hoping that he could help lead the way into the mountain, and gave a price that was hard to refuse.
It's just that this is against his original decision, so he didn't agree, and now Zhou Xingyu saved his son, and at the same time made a corresponding request, although he wanted to refuse, but the other party saved his son after all, and refusing to avoid being ungrateful is suspicious.
He thought about it, and finally said: "According to my own wishes, I will not agree to this matter no matter what, but Zhou Shaoxia saved Hu'er today, if I refuse, I don't know what to do." Well, I agreed! ”
