The old man didn't recognize who the woman in front of him was, and he couldn't even see it clearly, but he gradually recalled that this feeling of not being able to see clearly seemed to be something that he should have known a long time ago, and it was a means that some cultivators would use.

Min Xian's heart was a mixture of excitement and complexity, Lian Ping'er saw all kinds of complex expressions in his eyes, and finally the excitement gradually faded, his eyes slowly became cloudy, and his demeanor and posture became humble.

"Who's Miss?I'm old and I don't have a good memory......

Seeing the change in the old man's demeanor and this sentence, Lian Ping'er was slightly stunned again, of course she could taste some of the meanings.

This made Lian Ping'er frown, and looked at the old man in front of him intently, looking at the old man's clothes that were not much thick in winter, and then looking at the cracked and dirty nails on the old man's hands......

Thinking for a moment in his heart, Lian Ping'er stretched his brows and said.

"How much money do you have for a day's worth of business here?"

The old man looked down at the table, and the red paper he had prepared was not much.

"The New Year will be over in a few days, and this business will be better in these two days, and you can earn 100 yuan a day or more. ”

"Okay, I'll give you a piece of gold, today you belong to me, come with me, Min!

Lian Ping'er's last three words bit heavily, and a small gold ingot appeared directly in the palm of his hand, not very big, but at least two or three taels.

But the old man was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly.

"It will be more expensive to go to the home of a big family to write something during a day's work, but it will not cost a piece of gold, this young lady, I only need eighty yuan, eighty yuan!"

"Okay, eighty dollars is eighty dollars, come with me!"

Min Xian's face showed joy, nodded in agreement, and began to tidy up the stall in his hands.

"Let me clean up, Miss, just wait a moment. ”

The weather was very cold, Min Xian was not warm enough, plus the cracking of his hands in winter and the old and frail, so it was not easy to pack up his things, Lian Ping'er frowned and watched, but he didn't say much, let alone come forward to help, and waited for a while before the old man finished cleaning up.

"Alright, Miss, where are we going. ”

"Just follow me. ”

"Hey. ”

Lian Ping'er turned around and left directly, Min Xian hurriedly picked up the flat pole and carried two wooden boxes to keep up, he was not fast, but Lian Ping'er in front obviously didn't mean to wait for him, so he could only try to speed up his pace and try to keep up.

After walking for almost a quarter of an hour, Min Xian was already so tired that he was sweating and panting on his forehead, and the only good thing might be that he was not cold at all.

And at this time, Lian Ping'er finally stopped, and the location she stayed at was the restaurant she saw when she landed in the city of Dayunfu last night.

When Min Xian was still looking up at the magnificent restaurant and signboard, the female voice in front of her was already urging.

"Let's go inside. ”

Min Xian turned his head to look and saw that the woman had already entered the lobby, and went upstairs under the warm hospitality of the guys inside, and hesitated a little in his heart, Min Xian also hurriedly carried the burden in, and saw a little second greeted him, Min Xian hurriedly said.

"I'm with the young lady in front of me!"

The shopkeeper smiled.

"You know, old man, don't carry this burden upstairs, put it on the side of the counter. ”

The shopkeeper over there also looked up and said.

"Don't worry, we'll show you. ”

"Yes, yes, thank you!"

Min Xian bowed his hand to the little second and the shopkeeper, and then squatted down with the help of the little second and put down the flat burden, and then slowly went upstairs.

Upstairs, the door of the private room closest to the staircase was open, and it was facing the door, Lian Ping'er took off his velvet cloak and sat there, a shopkeeper was coming out of it, Min Xian nodded to the shopkeeper, and entered the private room.

It's not cold inside this inn, and there is a charcoal stove in the private room, even if the door hasn't been closed yet, but Min Xian feels very warm as soon as he enters it.

didn't see any movement from Lian Ping'er, the door behind Min Xian slowly closed by herself, and she smiled when she saw that the old man had been standing in front of the table.

"Senior Min, sit down, don't you want me to stand up and help you sit, right?"

"Thank you, Miss!"

Min Xian sat down slightly apprehensively, and asked cautiously before the stool was hot.

"What do you want to write about, young lady?"

Lian Ping'er looked at the old man indifferently, and suddenly slapped it on the table.

"Bang-"

This voice directly frightened the old man's body.

"Min Xian, are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Where has your cultivation gone? Where has your heart gone?"

"Haven't asked this young lady what her name is?"

Min Xian looked at Lian Ping'er calmly, and the latter sneered and replied bluntly.

"My name is Lian Ping'er, I came to you by someone, if you want, I can take you away today, if you still hesitate, then I won't have a chance here after today, I tell you the truth, something happened before I came, and I don't want to stay in Dazhen for a long time. ”

Min Xian nodded, thought for a moment and replied.

"The person entrusted to him is a teacher?"

"What do you say?"

Min Xian arched his hand.

"Min Mou talk about his own experience, presumably Miss Lian will also be interested, although my memory is really bad, but that moment is really unforgettable. ”

Lian Ping'er's expression gradually softened, and she sat up straight and waited for Min Xian to speak, who smiled and opened her mouth to narrate.

"I was trying to hold Mr. Ji for a while......"

Min Xian paused when he said this, and Lian Ping'er smiled sarcastically.

"Innocent!"

"Hehehe, maybe, but Senior Brother did escape. ”

"That's why I said you were naïve, if it weren't for your senior brother who arrived in time and was seriously injured and blocked the fate, do you think your senior brother would have been able to escape?"

Min Xian was slightly stunned, shook his head and did not answer the words, but continued to narrate.

"That day, when I woke up, I had been taken to a mountain top by Mr. Ji......"

Min Xian told the story of how Ji Yuan took Min Xian into his own artistic conception, and how he painted and collected the Dan furnace and his physical vitality, and then took him to the city of Dayunfu, leaving him alone in the city after his cultivation was lost......

Even Min Xian at this moment, his voice still trembled slightly when he said this, and Lian Ping'er on the other side could imagine the despair of Min Xian at the beginning, and he could better understand that kind of scene as if he could empathize, and a fear couldn't help but rise in his heart.

"In this way, the former immortal cultivator is gone, and there is only an old man Min Xian who lives alone in the city after hundreds of years of empty life like a dream...... Hey!"

"The past is indeed like a dream, and it will fade away like a dream, I am just a bad old man, how can I remember the events of hundreds of years......"

"Then you should be glad I'm here. ”

Lian Ping'er said this, and Min Xian also laughed, shaking his head while laughing.

After being a mortal for a while, some of the thoughts of the past have gradually faded away, and now Min Xian just wants to live the rest of his life well, and then sleep peacefully. ”

"But if you come with me, you can heal your injuries and recover your cultivation, and become an immortal standing in the clouds again, it's better than what you are doing now, right?"

Min Xian looked down at his hands and shook his head.

"It's useless, I can't practice anymore in this life, I still know this, Mr. Ji is equivalent to taking away my spiritual root, I can't even sense the aura, what I cultivate will not have results, whatever elixir I eat will only flow out of the body, and besides, although Min Xian is already a rotten life, it is not a good ......."

Lian Ping'er frowned slightly, a pill appeared in her hand, as soon as this pill appeared, a faint fragrance permeated, and the next moment, she flicked her fingers, and the pill had already hit Min Xian's forehead, turning into a white mist and merging into his seven orifices.

Min Xian's body was shrouded in a layer of hazy white light, but after a few breaths, patches of white mist seeped out from the surface of his body, as if hot air dissipated in cold air, and disappeared directly.

Lian Ping'er didn't believe in evil, stretched out his hand a little, and a mana wrapped in aura converged from Min Xian's middle acupoint again, and swam around his body.

"It's useless. ”

——————

Lian Ping'er withdrew his hand and didn't make any other attempts, just stared at Min Xian seriously.

"I just want to ask you, do you want to come with me?"

Min Xian stood up and bowed solemnly to Lian Ping'er.

"Please also ask the Taoist friends to tell the teacher on their behalf, although the teacher's education is deep, but Min Xian has also done enough for the teacher in this life, and please also ask the Taoist friends to tell a few senior brothers and sisters, Min Xian will never forget the friendship with them!"

"Hmph, I won't tell you this, I'll just say that you don't come, and let them treat you as a traitor who was frightened by fate. ”

Min Xian was stunned, sat down and didn't say anything.

"Knock knock knock ......" "Guest officer, serve." ”

Xiao Er's voice sounded outside the door, Lian Ping'er said "come in", the door was opened from the outside, there was no business in the big restaurant early in the morning, so the kitchen was very free, and there were two shopkeepers directly holding the tray up, when entering, the whole chicken and duck, pork and stewed soup on the tray all exuded a burst of tempting aroma, and Min Xian couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw it.

Soon, all the food was on the table, and the two shopkeepers were outstanding in holding two trays for each person, with a total of seven dishes and one soup, occupying the entire eight-person square table.

"Guest officer, please use it slowly, we won't disturb it, you can just call if you have something. ”

"I'm tired. ”

Lian Ping'er didn't speak, but Min Xian thanked the two juniors, the latter nodded, took the door and walked out, and only the silent Lian Ping'er and Min Xian were left in the private room.

"Why? I can't eat it anyway. ”

"Then, thank you for your hospitality!"

Min Xian reluctantly said politely, he couldn't resist the temptation anymore, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl to eat, and he was not afraid of choking, swallowing the vegetables in a big gulp, and dealing with roast chicken and the like was even more straightforward.

Looking at Min Xian's appearance at the moment, Lian Ping'er was even more angry.

"I don't know what ecstasy soup Ji Yuan poured on you!"

Min Xian, who lowered his head to eat the vegetables, paused, chewed the vegetables in his mouth and swallowed them, before looking up at Lian Ping'er.

"It can only be said that now we are not the same. ”

"Hmph, I lost a fairy heart, and I can still say such things?"

Lian Ping'er didn't want to waste time here with Min Xian, so she got up and walked directly behind Min Xian, called the door of the private room, and walked out without hesitation.

Min Xian didn't look back, let alone ask for the eighty yuan, but only whispered faintly after Lian Ping'er had left for a long time.

"But I found a human heart. ”

Lian Ping'er, who had already walked to the door of the big restaurant, squinted her eyes and glanced back at the staircase leading to the second floor of the restaurant, and then stepped into the restaurant.

In the private room at the staircase on the second floor, Min Xian seemed to have thought of something at this time, and quickly got up and ran to the door and shouted in the direction of the stairs.

"Little second brother, little second brother~~~ Did the young lady pay the bill?"

"Guest, you use it slowly, that young lady paid the bill~~~"

The sound coming from the staircase made Min Xian's heart feel relieved, and then he said below.

"Little second brother, is it convenient to borrow a food box, I want to pack it~~"

Xiao Er came up from below, looked at the table in the private room, and then looked at Min Xian.

"Old man, now that you're packing, you haven't eaten much of the food yet, and it's still steaming!"

"Yes, yes, right now, just while it's hot!"

"Okay, I'll pack it for you, but I can't take the soup with me, please wait a minute, I'll go get something." ”

"Thank you, thank you!"

Min Xian thanked again and again, and hurried back to the private room to eat after Xiao Er went downstairs, focusing on the big bowl of mushroom broth.

It didn't take long for Min Xian, who still had oil stains on his hands and mouth, to go downstairs, and the shopkeeper helped him carry some oiled paper bags in the back, thinking that the restaurant didn't want to lend food boxes, but Min Xian was still very happy.

Walking downstairs, Min Xian opened the two wooden box drawers he had picked up.

"Just put it inside, thank you little brother!"

"It's okay, it's okay. ”

The shopkeeper put six or seven packets of oiled paper into the two small wooden boxes in front and back, and the shopkeeper on the counter over there also called out to Min Xian.

"Old man, the money left by the young lady just now has change, and it is said to be for you, you can come and get it. ”

"Uh, how much?"

"If you convert it into copper coins, it's almost more than 100 yuan. ”

"Okay, that's great!"

Min Xian's face showed joy, he thought that he would not have money, and he was willing to take this number.

The shopkeeper took out a small string of money, and put a few copper plates on the counter, Min Xian thanked him again and again, took the money and picked up the burden, and then happily walked out of the restaurant.

This time, maybe it's because I'm full, maybe it's because my body is warm, maybe it's because I'm happy in my heart, or maybe I don't want the food to be cold, even if the burden is a little heavier, Min Xian's steps are much lighter than before.

This Min Xian did not go to the street to set up a stall again, all the way like a hurry, crossed the streets and alleys and walked in the city of Dayunfu for a while, and when his forehead was slightly sweaty, he entered a little bit of the city, and walked for a while to a small courtyard surrounded by a fence.

"Ah Go, Ah Go, look what Grandpa Min brought you back, Ah Go~~~"

The door to the courtyard opened at once, and a child of seven or eight years old rushed out of it.

"Grandpa Min!"

"Take a look, there's something good!"

"It smells so good!"

"Hey, hey, come in, come in, come in, there's a lot of delicious food, it's still hot!"

......

The laughter of the old man and the cheers of the children came from inside the house, and Lian Ping'er outside the house frowned frequently, it seemed that Min Xian really wouldn't leave, and then forgot the yard before she turned into a fog and left.
