Chapter Seventy-Six: Seven Garden Spirits (1)
Yu Kite put the big hat that Jiang Lan took off during lunch back on Jiang Lan's body, and said, "Let's go back to the house when it's dark." ”
Jiang Lan shook his head and said, "I want to wait for Xiao Mian to come back." ”
At this point, Yu Yuan helped Jiang Lan tie his clothes and said, "I'll look for it." ”
Saying that, there was a knock on the door outside the door, it was the owner of the store who rushed to the door, saw that no one answered the knock, looked down and saw Yu Kite and the three in the backyard, so he rushed down from the second floor and ran to Yu Kite.
Yu Yuan saw that the boss's face was a little anxious, so he said, "Boss, you are in such a hurry, what is the urgency?"
The boss took two breaths and said, "Guest officer, there are two men outside, saying that they know three of them, I am afraid that they are here to find trouble, so I asked the two to wait in the store, so I don't come to find a few by myself." ”
Jiang Lan had already gone outside, and the unfinished big dan on his body was scattered on his shoulder, and he didn't ask anymore, just thinking about seeing Jiang Mian.
Yu Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief, if it was good, the two people outside the door would be the two of them, Jiang Lan was so anxious, she could be anxious these days.
............
The fire outside, helping Jiang Mian to sit on the chair, because of the sudden cold, the two of them were wearing a little thin, Jiang Mian's face was not very good, and he covered the corners of his mouth and coughed from time to time.
Jiang Lan hurriedly ran in, and when he saw Jiang Mian, who had not been worried for a long time, he finally couldn't help but reddened his eyes, and shouted across the two tables: "Xiao Mian." ”
Jiang Mian looked back and smiled, but his smile was a little reluctant: "Sister." ”
The sister and brother hugged each other for a while, and then let go, because it was evening, and there were more people in the inn, which had attracted the attention of many people. Jiang Lan held Jiang Mian's cold fingers, wiped his tears, and said, "But I'm sick, and my body is so cold." ”
Jiang Mian said: "No, it's just that I hurt my lungs last time, and my cough is not good, and I am in a hurry, so I am a little tired, and I will recover in a few days." ”
Jiang Lan said: "I heard Ming Decay Strontium say that she pushed you into the mountain, but your body was injured. ”
As he spoke, he reached out and touched Jiang Mian up and down, Jiang Mian stopped him, and said with a smile: "It's fine, thanks to the care of the fire suppressor, the injuries suffered a few days ago have been much better." ”
Jiang Lan looked at the fire warriors who were dusty and dusty, and there was a lot of mud on their clothes, bowed down and saluted, and said gratefully: "Thank you for saving my brother repeatedly, Jiang Lan has nothing to repay, if it can be used in the future to Jiang Lan's place, just mention it." ”
The fire was the most unbearable, and he hurriedly helped Jiang Lan up: "Miss Jiang doesn't need to be polite, and Miss Jiang can't reciprocate." ”
The Jiang family was destroyed overnight, and his father did not know whether he was alive or dead, leaving only one of Jiang Mian's relatives alive. With Jiang Lan, no one can explain the importance of Jiang Mian to her.
The cherished treasure that was lost made Jiang Lan slow down for a long time, leaned over and saluted again, and said, "Thank you, thank you." ”
Huo Xiao pursed his lips, Jiang Mian touched his arm, and stopped talking.
Yu Yuan looked at Jiang Mian's weak appearance, and felt that he must be frightened, so he laughed and teased him, and half-jokingly: "Jiang Mian, I see that your body needs to be well recuperated for a while, and you should be honest during this time, don't run around anymore." ”
I thought that Jiang Mian would be embarrassed, but I didn't expect Jiang Mian to just glance at Yu Kite very lightly, and said with a smile: "Thank you for the reminder, Jiang Mian will pay more attention." ”
Yu Yuan was a little stunned, and always felt that Jiang Mian had changed a little when he returned this time, and Fang Cai's smile was not as simple and willful as before, but a little more worldly.
Subconsciously, she felt that Jiang Mian must have experienced some very bad things these days.
The group chatted a few words and then dispersed, Jiang Mian was not in good health, so he changed rooms with Yu Yuan in order to take care of him, and Jiang Lan was next to him, in case something happened in the middle of the night, he would arrive in time.
Night, very cool.
Halfway through the darkness, the neon lights hung on the street, but the stalls were gone, and the people of Lock Spirit City gradually gathered in a house in a prosperous area due east.
Although there is no urgency to investigate the spiritual objects, it is also necessary to cherish the time, the so-called inch of time is an inch of gold, but the offline cold ice does not know anything, and the lock spirit city does not have a clear goal like the Forgotten Worry River.
Don't talk about the ice here, even the boundary has not been figured out, and the investigation of this matter can only be moved back for the time being.
At dinner, there was no one in the inn, and even the owner of this inn went to the city lord's house that Xiao Er said in the afternoon.
There are few lights, and there are no people, so it's really deserted.
After staying for a while, Yu Kite decided to go over there, since it was the city lord's house, there must be all the citizens of Lock Spirit City gathered there, maybe this way can be investigated clearly.
Thinking like this, Yu Yuan came to Ye Qingzhi's room and looked for him. Jiang Lan has been worried about Jiang Mian's safety recently, and she hasn't had a good rest, so Yu Yuan decided not to call her, the night is still long, and it is true that she can sleep well.
The east side of the lock spirit city is the time of liveliness, the door outside the house is open, and the table banquet has been placed in a street and alley outside the door from the inner courtyard, with the continuous influx of people, but the seats will be slow for a while, and the sitting and standing are obvious, so it seems that there are many people who do not have seats.
When Yu Kite arrived, there was no seat left, and he pulled Ye Qingzhi to a group of people who had no place to sit for the banquet as late as they were.
There are both men and women, young and old, and most of them come in groups from their families, from grandmothers and grandmothers to grandchildren, and it is not uncommon for a family of five or six to come.
There are many old people standing with them, and they seem to have a good relationship with each other, although they are old, their backs are rickety, and a group of people are chatting very happily, and they are full of energy when they speak, and they don't see that they have passed the age of sixtieth at all.
Yu Kite was idle and bored, and he couldn't move around at will, because a group of men who looked like butlers were already recruiting seats. Since you are here, you have to have a good meal, Yu Kite licked the corners of her mouth, otherwise she would be sorry for herself.
After a while, the younger butler came over and led Yu Kite and his party to the inner courtyard. There is a free table and chair here, but there are only five or six people per table, and it is much taller if it is not crowded.
After arranging the seats, the housekeeper said: "A few people are sitting here, because there are too many people, and the tables that were originally prepared in the house are gone, so if you need anything, just ask." ”
Several old ladies chatted very enthusiastically, and they didn't stop when they sat in their seats.
"Have you heard, the city lord has obtained the Seven Garden Spirits. ”
"Of course I've heard it, what is the Seven Garden Spirit, how many people dream of it, and the city lord doesn't know how many people will be jealous when he gets it now. ”
"In response to a common saying in the family, the most powerful people are the most likely to be calculated. ”
There are good and bad conversations, listening to a group of old people talking here, Yu Kite didn't have the temperament to listen after listening to a few words, so he simply picked up the tea on the table and drank it.
With a sip, Yu Yuan licked the corners of his mouth, and said with a frown: "Bitter." ”
Ye Qingzhi took the handkerchief to her, Yu Kite had already wiped it on her sleeve, looking at the white and flawless handkerchief, she smiled: "It seems that I haven't used a handkerchief for a long time." ”
In my previous life, I used it from time to time, Ye Qingzhi gave it, made it myself, and I always like to bring one around, whether it is after a meal or an ordinary hour, there is always a place where the handkerchief is used. After reliving in this life, I don't know why Yu Kite can't like this kind of thing, so he naturally doesn't want to use it.
Ye Qingzhi's fingers tightened slightly, and he withdrew the handkerchief without saying a word.
Yu Yuan thought that Ye Qingzhi was unhappy, and hurriedly said: "Ye Zi, I didn't mean that, not ......"
Ye Qingzhi suddenly said: "You don't notice it yourself, and you are so defensive that you don't want to believe it subconsciously." ”
Yu Yuan was stunned, and didn't understand why Ye Qingzhi suddenly said this: "What, what, Ye Zi, I don't have any precautions against you." ”
Ye Qingzhi didn't want to continue this topic, and drank the tea in one gulp, and Jingzhi's face showed a rare bit of displeasure.
Neither of them asked deeply, Yu Kite didn't know, and Ye Qingzhi didn't say.
At that time, a man in a dark robe walked out of the lobby. The man's facial features are elegant, his smile is cute, his black hair is tied high, and he has a decent atmosphere, and his arrival has made the atmosphere in the courtyard reach * for a while.
After listening vaguely for a few minutes, Yu Kite realized that the person was Yi Fei, the city lord of Lock Spirit City.
After the selection of the city lord of Lock Spirit City, the policy of political service in the army is a bit the same as that of the Northern Cavalry Country, all of them are given priority to those who are capable, if the strength is enough, it is understandable to become the city lord of Lock Spirit City, there is no objection to this, after all, the responsibility of the city lord is to protect thousands of people in the city, and no one wants to choose a straw bag.
Yi Fei bowed and said, "Thank you for coming to the banquet in the cold house, Yi Fei is grateful." ”
One and a half people in the crowd stood up and said: "The city lord is polite, the city lord helps us so much on weekdays, and the banquet is also a good thing, we are also here for ourselves, after all, the city lord's cook is notoriously good." ”
After that, he laughed, causing the people at the two tables around him to laugh too.
This is also true, there is no objection on the surface, but behind it, there is a bit of unusualness, but it is too fast, and before Yu Kite wants to say anything, he seems to have turned the page by himself, and he can't find it.
Yi Yu said: "This benevolent brother is so interesting, but Lock Spirit City may not have been so lively for a long time, and now seeing this scene, it is a little shocking." ”
The man continued: "The city lord is kind to the people in the Spirit City, but the city lord, some people may not have seen this rare spiritual object such as the Seven Garden Spirit in their lives, and now that everyone is here, the city lord might as well take it out and let us see the world too." ”
Yi Fei thought for a while, and Yu Yuan keenly noticed that Yi Fei's smile had gradually collapsed after the man's words. It's just that the man's words were also unintentional, and there was nothing wrong with it, how could Yi Fei have changed like this.
He said, "Okay." ”
Then he smiled and instructed the housekeeper behind him: "Don't go get it yet." ”
After a while, I saw the butler come out with a plate, covered with a long black cloth, and the plate was added to the ground with the depiction of the flying dragon soaring in the sky and the time of the sky, so I couldn't see why.
Since this thing appeared, all eyes in the courtyard have been on it.
Stood up, half-squatted, and polished his eyes.
