Volume 3 Expeditionary Force Chapter 103 Good Books on the Shelves
Regarding the humiliating words of Monk Baoguang, Han Changsheng didn't take it to heart, with his current strength, he was not Monk Baoguang's opponent, if he had the opportunity to advance to the Yuan Infant Stage in the future, he would naturally seek back a few points of interest from this monk.
At this time, a middle-aged Confucian student suddenly trotted out of the restaurant.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Tang was shocked and said, "Owner, why did you come out in person?"
"Shut up!"
The proprietor glared at the shopkeeper Tang angrily and taught him a lesson.
I saw that the shopkeeper, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth just now, was frightened by this person's eyes.
Shopkeeper Tang was shocked in his heart and said, "What's wrong with the proprietor today, how can I ever see him get so angry on weekdays? Could it be because I didn't drive that Jiedan monk away earlier just now?"
The proprietor did not continue to pay attention to the shopkeeper Tang, but chased after Han Changming, and said with a smile on his face: "This is Mr. Han, right?
"Do I know you?"
Han Changming stopped and asked, turned around, and saw that this strange restaurant owner was smiling at himself at the moment, and he didn't know what kind of medicine this person was selling in his gourd.
"Mr. Han doesn't know the villain, don't worry, the villain's name is Xia Silkworm, and he has admired Mr. Han's name for a long time, so please move upstairs to talk about it!"
"Not interested!"
Han Changming coldly refused and continued to walk down the street.
"This ......"
The smile on Xia Silkworm's face suddenly stopped, he turned his head and glared at the shopkeeper Tang, looking like he was going to eat the shopkeeper, so frightened that the shopkeeper Tang hurriedly lowered his eyebrows and arched his hands, not daring to squeak.
Xia Silkworm's angry expression surprised all the monks who were originally watching the excitement.
"What's going on? This is the owner of the Tianzi Welcome Guest Building on the bright side, Xia Silkworm, a cultivator in the late stage of the Yudan, who has few rivals in his peers, and manages this restaurant that is the most famous in the Xia Kingdom and specializes in entertaining monks in the Yuan Infant Period, but such a noble person would actually call himself a villain in front of a monk in the early stage of Yudan? And say that he admires the name of this monk surnamed Han? I heard the Buddhist monk senior say that this monk surnamed Han is just a swaggering liar, what is going on?"
The monk in the black robe said in confusion, no one knew what was going on at the moment.
"Maybe the owner of this Tianzi Welcome Building has recognized the wrong person, right? I look at this person's appearance, whether it is cultivation, appearance, or dress, he doesn't look like a person with status. ”
A female cultivator said sharply, which caused many monks to laugh secretly, and I am afraid that only female nuns would pay attention to the appearance and dress of the monks.
However, Xia Silkworm didn't pay attention to the gossip of the onlookers, and he said to the shopkeeper Tang: "Old Tang, you have been working in the Tianzi Welcome Building for about a hundred years!"
"Yes, the villain has been doing chores in this restaurant since the beginning of the Qi refining period, and the time has been in a hurry for a hundred years, thanks to the appreciation of the owner, and now he can sit in the position of the shopkeeper. ”
Shopkeeper Tang sighed in his heart, and hurriedly replied with sincere fear.
"Then you can roll up the cover!"
Xia Silkworm seemed to have made a decision at random.
"Why?"
Shopkeeper Tang asked in disbelief, his legs trembling, as if for him, leaving the restaurant was more terrible than death.
"Do you want me to say it again?"
The aura on Xia Silkworm's body suddenly exploded, and as a monk in the late stage of the Jiedan, this powerful pressure made the Tang shopkeeper, who was only in the late stage of foundation building, retreat many steps again and again, before he could barely stand firm, and the corners of his mouth were already overflowing with blood.
"Is this the host performing dog beating for the guests?"
Han Changming, who knew it, could no longer stand by and watch at this time, after all, 'I can't turn a blind eye to what should be performed with you'.
Han Changming opened his mouth and persuaded: "This shopkeeper is also loyal to his duties, he has not made any mistakes, and he has not offended me, Xia Daoyou does not need to be so angry." ”
"Well, since Brother Han said so, I won't worry about this slave who looks down on people today, if there is a next time, I won't spare it so easily, and I won't get in!"
"Yes, yes! Xie Dongjia, Mr. Xie Han pleaded!"
Shopkeeper Tang hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed twice.
At this time, all the monks who were watching Han Changming's joke were shocked, what kind of person is Mr. Han in the mouth of the restaurant owner? Could it be that the old monster from the Yuan Infant period from which academy pretended to be here to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?
There was such a big commotion downstairs, and many Yuan Infant Stage monks in the restaurant also looked sideways, and they also wanted to know if Han Changsheng was an immortal Yuan Infant Old Monster, but no matter how you look at it, this Mr. Han is too young, and he doesn't look like a Yuan Infant Old Monster at all, and the cultivation on his body is indeed only in the early stage of the Yudan, and it doesn't look like a disguise at all.
At this time, Han Changming saw that Xia Silkworm had already punished the shopkeeper slightly, and at the same time, he also wanted to know who invited such a mere monk of the Yudan period as him to come to the banquet.
He believed that the inviter did not invite him to this restaurant to humiliate such a small person as him, and I am afraid that even the other party did not expect such an unpleasant thing to happen at the door of the restaurant.
So Han Changming followed Xia Silkworm into the restaurant, and the onlookers gave way one after another.
"I think I probably know who this person is, no wonder I thought he was familiar just now, but I couldn't remember it for a while!"
There was an old man in the foundation building period who was on crutches, looking at the back of Han Changming walking into the restaurant and said.
Many monks actually knew this old man, and urged: "Old Huang don't sell it, talk about it quickly!"
"If I'm not mistaken, this person's surname is Han, do you remember that twenty years ago, a monk surnamed Han recommended betting on the Wunian Palace Dragon Boat Team, which was not favored at that time, to win, and the bet amount of this single was as high as 10 million spirit stones. ”
Huang Lao said his guess.
"Is it him? Could it be that the owner of this restaurant will have such a courteous attitude, but isn't he nowhere to be found? Now that this person has reappeared in front of the world after twenty years, could it be that there will be some earth-shattering orders this time?"
Many monks first came to their senses, and then began to speculate about Han Changsheng's intention to reappear in Emperor Hill City.
Han Changsheng naturally couldn't hear all kinds of chattering voices in the crowd at the door, because he was standing at the door of a secret private room on the third floor at the moment.
The door of this room is heavily guarded, and there is no big man inside?
Xia Silkworm left on his own after bringing him here, so Han Changming pushed the door in, but he looked at the scene in front of him and was a little stunned.
Contrary to the imaginary scene where the private room should be full of friends and staggered friends, there was only one friar in this private room.
"Xia Jiuchai, it's actually you!"
Han Changming's face did not have the excitement of meeting acquaintances, but secretly became vigilant.
He never expected that the person who invited him would be Xia Jiuchai, she was more beautiful than before, but she exuded an indescribable noble aura all over her body, and she could only be viewed from a distance and could not be blasphemed.
This woman can open a private room and wait for him in such a restaurant where only the old monster can come, and let the restaurant owner Xia Silkworm saddle up like this, plus Xiong Yiyi said, 'The status is much more noble than that of Xia Gongzi', it seems that the background of this Xia Jiuchai must not be simple!
"After the clouds parted, the water flowed for ten years. Brother Han, don't come unharmed!"
Xia Jiuchai said with beautiful eyes, her pair of curved willow eyebrows, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of spring when she smiled.
"It's more than twenty years, right?"
Han Changming looked at Xia Jiuchai's eyes, and said lightly.
"Brother Han doesn't have to care about the details, I'm just trying to rhyme some. Brother Han just ran into some trouble downstairs, do you need me to help you solve it?"
She said with concern, a smiling face with a pair of bright eyes, like a clear spring flowing from a mountain stream in a quiet moonlit night.
"No need, there was a bald vicious dog barking at me just now, I can't bark at it anymore?
Han Changming was actually not surprised in his heart, it must not be difficult to advance to the Dan stage with Xia Jiuchai's big background, but Han Changming still had to ask.
"Bald Vicious Dog, I was originally from Diqiu City, but I was fostered in the remote Floating Cloud City since I was a child. According to the family rules, as long as the cultivation can reach the Dan period, you can end the experience and return to the family, and I happened to break through the Dan period by luck not long ago. ”
Xia Jiuchai was slightly stunned at first, and then explained the ins and outs of his coming to Emperor Hill City.
In the secret private room where she was now, the window was not facing the street, so she just vaguely heard someone arguing downstairs, and Han Changsheng didn't come for a long time, so she asked Xia Silkworm to go down and check it out.
"Are your parents really relieved to foster you in such a chaotic Floating Cloud City?"
Xia Jiuchai said with a smile: "What does it matter, according to the common routine of the immortal cultivation world, hasn't 'Bai Fumei' always been fostered in a remote county town?"
"Bai Fumei?"
Han Changming suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at Xia Jiuchai.
He couldn't help but think that when he first met Xia Jiuchai in Fuyun City more than twenty years ago, she was just a girl in the early stage of foundation building.
The clothes and hair accessories she wears today are similar to those of more than 20 years ago, and she is still an elegant pale gold dress, but she is no longer the girl she was back then.
Han Changsheng couldn't help but have a moment of heart, after all, he had sneaked into Xia Jiuchai's boudoir back then, and the faint fragrance emanating from the boudoir was still fresh in his memory, and now the two of them were alone in this private room.
"Brother Han, are you okay?"
Xia Jiuchai saw that Han Changsheng had been staring at him without speaking, and couldn't help but blush and asked.
"No, I suddenly found that you are quite thick-skinned, and you call yourself 'Bai Fumei'. By the way, how did you know that I was in the Holy Light Academy?"
Han Changming asked, he had already woken up from his heart at the moment, he and Xia Jiuchai were just ordinary friends, and Xia Jiuchai came to find him today, and it seemed that he had another purpose.
"I heard my cousin Xia Liuxing say that there is a gambling god surnamed Han in the Holy Light Academy who is very powerful, I was interested, so I found the image of the gambling god to see, it turned out to be Brother Han, it happened that Dean Xiong Chumo came to my house to push the book, saying that it was a good book on the shelf, only two hundred spirit stones, I bought it to see, it was actually an old book that has been circulated for a long time in the world of cultivating immortals, it was Zhu Xi's "Five Years of Confucian Cultivation and Three Years of Simulation", this exercise is almost not cultivated, the original book is already obscure, and after Xiong Chumo's translation, it is even more incomprehensible. When Xiong Chumo left, I told him that if you go back to the academy, let me know. ”
Xia Jiuchai's words solved some doubts in Han Changming's heart.
However, Han Changming was very speechless to Xiong Chumo in his heart at the moment, it turned out that the so-called 'advanced exercises of Confucian cultivation' were just exercises on the rotten streets that had been circulating in the immortal cultivation world for a long time.
Xiong Chumo also said that when he practiced to perfection, there was a chance to produce the illusion of the Dharma image of Sage Kong behind him, which could make the enemy frightened, and now it seems that this exercise book should have some major drawbacks, resulting in no one cultivating.
