Chapter Forty-Eight
Jia Jing is alchemy on weekdays, and rarely appears in front of his family. If you want to see the people around him, unless you try your luck, you can't usually see them.
Jia Xuan knew that as a little girl, no matter how she was the daughter of Rongguo Mansion, she couldn't see Jia Jing who was the real head of Ning Guofu at will. So he took this opportunity to open his mouth to Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng was not ambiguous, immediately agreed, and asked, "What are you looking for him to do?" Master Jing is either in alchemy or on the way to alchemy on weekdays, and he may not have time to take care of you if you run away. ”
Suddenly remembering that it was the Li Immortal that Sister Xuan wanted to meet, she suddenly said, "Is it that after you get the guidance of a master, you like to meet with these people outside of Hongchen?" If this is the case, if you don't see Master Jing, you can also be blessed if you see that immortal. ”
Jia Xuan was thinking about finding an excuse, but he didn't think that he would find this excuse by himself, so he nodded busily.
Wang Xifeng went to arrange.
Not long after, Ping'er came to look for Jia Xuan, saying that it was a coincidence, that Li Xianren was living in Ningguo's Mansion to guard the Dan furnace in the mansion for Master Jing, and he had not followed Master Jing to Xuanzhen Temple recently. If the fifth girl wants to talk to him, she can go directly to the front yard to find him, but she doesn't have to go out of the house to go to Xuanzhen Temple.
Jia Xuan naturally knew that this person was in the mansion, and when he heard the words, he asked Ping'er to help arrange it.
So before dinner, when the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the mansion and dyed everything red-orange, Jia Xuan saw this person in the former Jia Jing's study in the outer courtyard, which is now Jia Jing's Taoist room.
He was only in his twenties, tall and thin, like a bamboo pole. With this body, it looks like a Taoist priest's clothes.
Li Xianren's name is Li Sha. He saw that there were two gentlemen in the house, a grandmother and a girl, and he didn't know what order to call them for a while, so he simply said simply: "Xiaodao has seen you." The tone is neither humble nor arrogant, and the voice is faint, which at first glance sounds like a "master".
There was no incense in the house. But there was a crackling sound of burning things in the Dan furnace, and it was not filled with the usual strange smell of pills, but there was an aroma of food.
Jia Xuan bowed: "I heard roasted beans." Saying that, Lala Wang Xifeng's sleeve: "Sister-in-law, I want to eat baked beans." ”
Li Sha's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes quickly glanced at the alchemy furnace.
He stayed here for a few days on the grounds of "refining the elixir in the mansion for the eldest master", and no matter how he refined it in the furnace, it was naturally the elixir for the eldest lord.
Wang Xifeng was afraid that his girl would upset the people around Jia Jing, so he hurriedly whispered: "I'll go back and let Ping'er bake a basket for you!" ”
Jia Zhen and Jia Rong smiled and said, "What's the need to go back to Rongguo Mansion?" Just let someone add a few plates to Sister Xuan when it's time for dinner. ”
Li Sha breathed a sigh of relief invisibly.
Jia Xuan jumped out of his chair, sniffed around the stove for a moment, and then suddenly turned his head and glanced at the little guy waiting by the wall.
Huang Mu had followed her all the way before, and he knew a little bit about the temper of this little master. As soon as he saw her eyes, he immediately ran quickly and lifted the lid of the alchemy furnace.
With a pop, a few roasted beans popped out of the stove and fell to the ground with a clatter. Immediately after, crackling and popping, the sound of beans roasting and popping was endless, and more beans scrambled out of the furnace because of the heat in the furnace, jumped outside and fell to the ground.
Everyone in the room watched this scene with a stunned face, watching the charred and cracked beans scattered all over the ground.
Li Sha was the first to react, and hurriedly went to Huang Mu to grab the lid of the stove.
Jia Zhen's face sank as black as the bottom of a pot, and she snapped into the case: "Aren't you alchemy for the eldest master?" This is the elixir you refined? Could it be that you have deceived the master like this in the past! ”
He wasn't much of a fan of these warlocks. It's just that his father respects them, and he just gives these people some thin noodles. Now when I see this image, I can't care about being polite from the beginning of my heart.
After a brief panic, Li Sha calmed down and smiled at Jia Zhen: "I naturally refined the elixir for Master Jing, and it was put in the cabinet. Because the stove was empty, I thought that I would be idle, so I threw some beans into it, ready to prepare for the next alchemy. ”
Jia Rong grinned: "You mean, these roasted beans are the ingredients for the next alchemy?" ”
Li Sha solemnly said: "Exactly." ”
Jia Rong clutched her chest and smiled.
Li Sha turned to Jia Xuan: "I heard that the girl in the house came to me to discuss, but I didn't expect so many people to come. I thought I would roast more beans, save some for the ingredients, and leave some for the girl to make snacks. ”
Jia Xuan smiled and nodded: "It smells very good." ”
Li Sha's heart was slightly lowered.
Unexpectedly, he had just relaxed for a few breaths, and the little girl spoke again, but she startled him a lot: "I heard from Mr. Bookkeeper that I lost some silver when I was settling accounts. And on the way he took the silver to settle the account, he met you on the way, and you asked him specifically, where do you want to take the silver, yes or no? ”
Jia Zhen and Jia Rong knew about losing the silver again, but Wang Xifeng didn't know about it, and they were very surprised when they heard about it.
Li Sha said: "It's just a few casual greetings with him." ”
"Is that really the case?" Jia Xuan said lightly: "Since you can say that roasted beans are alchemy, then you may also say that coveting silver is greetings." ”
Lisha's face immediately changed.
He was about to make a move, but Jia Xuan was faster than him.
Jia Xuan knew that this Li Sha had Gu on him. But her insects are the kings of Gu, and they can completely suppress his little minions.
She sent out the Gu King, pointed at Li Sha quietly, pinched the trick with a slight movement of her fingertips, and shouted "enter" softly.
A lilac glimmer that mortals couldn't see appeared from her fingertips, and instantly went to Li Sha, penetrating through his seven orifices.
