You Li looked at the woman with a guarded face, and said suspiciously: "You know me?"

The woman removed the fence, revealing a fair face, and said with a smile, "Don't you remember me?"

You was stunned for a moment, and then reacted:

"Ah, it turned out to be Sister Lan Ruo! I heard that you were kidnapped by that Xuanzhu Great Immortal? It seems to be unscathed, that's really good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he wondered again, "But why are you here?"

Lan Ruo smiled: "I was kidnapped to Qingyun Village by that old thief of Xuanzhu, and I have been tied up in the inn room. Later, somehow, the Taoist chief of the Shengshan County Daohui Department came to the door and said that the old thief had been ambushed and rescued me.

"However, I am a weak woman, and I am not familiar with life here, so I thought that you once said that you were practicing on the Yuyu Mountain, so I inquired all the way and came to you. ”

Suddenly, he smiled and said, "It's okay if people are fine." So, I'm going to the town to buy New Year's goods, why don't I go to the town and find a restaurant to sit down in?"

Lan Ruo groaned slightly, nodded and replied, "It's okay." ”

So, the two of them went one after the other, and slowly headed west. When it does not move, you will see a huge archway on the east side of the town with the words "Anjing Huamin".

Entering the town, the main street is noisy with cars and horses, so it is not lively.

You Li asked, "Go to the teahouse to sit?"

Lan Ruo nodded, and followed Youli to the Qingyuan Teahouse. Seeing the wandering, Cai San opened his eyebrows and smiled: "Yo, rare guest! Dine or drink tea?"

You Li smiled in return, and was about to say "drink tea", but Lan Ruo didn't want to preemptively say: "Dine!"

You Li glanced back at her in surprise, but couldn't see her expression hidden behind the fence, so he asked Cai San, "There is a private room, right?"

Cai San said: "Yes, the two of you come with me." ”

After speaking, he led the two of them upstairs and sat down in a well-appointed private room.

After Lan Ruo inquired, he ordered seven or eight dishes in one go. After Cai San left, he took off the power fence and said apologetically:

"Xiaodao Elder Mo is angry with his sister, he is really exhausted, and he has been hungry for a day. ”

You Li smiled: "It's okay, I can still afford a meal." ”

When the steaming meals were served one after another, Lan Ruo asked for another pot of wine, and wanted to persuade the wine, but when he saw the immature face of the wanderer, he had to say:

"Look at my sister's brain, you are a person of Qing cultivation, my sister grew up in Fengyue Field since she was a child, and your wine-colored habits will not be changed for a while, you are not surprised. ”

You Li said calmly: "It's okay. I see what you mean, it seems that you are not ready to go back to the aromatherapy Qiaoxie?"

Lan Ruo drank a glass of wine, his face turned red, and the whole person also came alive, and said with a big grin:

"Originally, sister, I did have this plan. But after two days of eating and sleeping, I realized how many catties and taels I had. To put it mildly, sister, I, like this pot of daffodils in the house, don't look at the delicate and yellow blooms, but once you get out of this door, you are destined to not be able to withstand the frost and snow pressure of the cold winter. I also figured it out, except for playing with those dignitaries and nobles in my life, I don't have any skills. No matter how vast the world is outside, I can only show off in the greenhouse. ”

You Li asked, "So, do you still want to go back to Anxi City?"

After some talking, Lan Ruo's mood was obviously much happier, and she regained a bit of her playful nature, and she didn't have a good air:

"Or else?"

He stopped talking, and finally swallowed the words back.

Lan Ruo glanced at him and said with an angry smile: "If you have something to say, at a young age, you can't be happy!"

You Li smiled and said: "If you really want to be self-reliant and self-reliant, it's not impossible, the key is whether you can put down your body." ”

Lan Ruo's expression moved, "What do you say?"

You took a sip of hot tea and said, "You are from Qingqi, you can sing songs, right?"

Lan Ruo's thin eyebrows frowned slightly, "Then don't you still want me to show up and go out to sing?"

"That's different. You are a part-time worker in Aromatherapy Qiaoxie. Now, you have a chance to turn over and be your own master. ”

Lan Ruo looked up and down for a while, and said suspiciously: "What is a part-time job, and what is your own master?"

Free Patience explains:

"You are begging for a living in the demon gate, and you are making money for others. Now that I have the opportunity to make money for myself, why not give it a try?"

"Even if it's a singing, there must be a venue or a stage, right? I, a weak woman, if I don't take refuge in some big person or power, do I think I don't die fast enough?"

"Don't bother. If you are willing, you can set up in this Qingyuan teahouse. I'm still familiar with the boss, so I can help you agree. ”

Lan Ruo put down her chopsticks and was silent.

You Li had just eaten a big bowl of laba porridge, looking at the table full of good dishes, but he couldn't afford to move his chopsticks, so he could only swallow his saliva helplessly.

Immediately afterwards, he said: "Make money with your ability, don't steal or rob, don't chill." ”

Lan Ruo suddenly laughed and said, "You little Taoist, your ideas are really wild. ”

Laugh at it.

Lan Ruo held his hand and said curiously, "When did you start doubting my identity?"

With his intuition, he didn't squint and said, "You just used such a superb technique at the foot of the mountain, I don't doubt that it's abnormal, right?"

Lan Ruo said: "Based on this alone, how can you possibly grasp the key vein? Moreover, although it is only a matter of a moment, the keen intuition of the danger perception you have just shown is really impressive. ”

The surface is calm, but the heart has already turned upside down. What the other party said was not bad at all, just now the heart word print warned for no reason, and the heart lake was immediately turbulent, so he instinctively did not look directly into her eyes, and sure enough, he escaped the catastrophe.

It seems that the other party has a pupil-type technique.

So, he tried his best to control his emotions and said, "Your sudden appearance in Yuyu Mountain obviously won't be for no reason. And the biggest basis for my judgment is that I met Aunt Qiangu when I was in the Aromatherapy Qiaoxie, and she used a magical power similar to that of a god to possess one of the Qingqi at that time, right?"

I don't know if this "Lan Ruo" in front of me is Lan Ruo, so I nodded again and again, and said with a sudden face:

"I see. It seems that the little Taoist priest she said was curing Liu Qiaoqiao is you?"

Noncommittal, he asked, "I don't know what happened to my predecessors looking for me?"

Lan Ruo took a sip of the wine in the cup, spit out a mouthful of heavy wine, and said drunkly:

"I just said that. It's to come to you to solve Lan Ruo's livelihood problem. Originally, I wanted to eat and drink in your watch for a while, but you little guy is really alert, not only did you take me to the mountain, but instead of leading me to the mountain, you had already prepared a draft and threw Lan Ruo here. However, your idea is not bad, I decided for her, to be a singer in this Qingyuan teahouse!"

As he spoke, he plucked a daffodil and put it on his head, and he was charming and natural in his gestures.

You thought helplessly, you have tried your best to charm me as a "little Taoist", I'm afraid you didn't drink fake wine, right?

The next moment, Lan Ruo lay on the table and fell asleep.

With a black line on his face, he got up suddenly, and went downstairs to find Ma Sanqi, the shopkeeper of the teahouse.

At the beginning, Ma Sanqi was still a homeless person, and was recruited by Fang Huaiyuan to become the shopkeeper of the teahouse. This person is a reliable person who does things very measuredly, and runs this teahouse, which was originally on the verge of bankruptcy, to run it well.

You Li said what he had just discussed, and at the end, he asked, "Uncle Ma, this matter was decided by me temporarily, do you think it's inconvenient?"

Ma Sanqi said with a smile: "This is a good thing that cannot be sought! The Qingqi people who came out of the aromatherapy Qiaoxie are fragrant and sweet cakes that are difficult to find with lanterns! With such a famous person settled in, the business of our teahouse will only get better and better, and it will definitely be able to stabilize the end of the restaurant of Yang Yuanwai's house diagonally opposite." ”

Seeing that he didn't shirk it, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and told him to wait for Lan Ruo to wake up, and negotiate with him on his own, and then he went out of the teahouse and went to buy New Year's goods.

Behind the window of the private room upstairs, Lan Ruo, who had gotten up at some point, looked at the figure that was gradually moving away through the wooden window, and once again fell into the self-talk of sometimes male and sometimes female voices, and the painting style was very strange.

The female voice said: "I've already touched the person for you, so I should be satisfied now, right? Don't you get out of this body quickly!"

The male voice said, "Sister Xue, you are too perfunctory." You can see that the kid is cautious and slick, and he is not so good at clichés. ”

The female voice said, "It's over, isn't it?"

The male voice said, "Hehe, there is an end." You just want to go back to your old job, find out what it was like to be a daffodil, and sing a few songs in this teahouse every day, which is still good for your practice. ”

The female voice ignored the male voice's gags, and said worriedly: "Do you know that this teahouse is Zhai Biqing's property?"

The male voice smiled and said: "It is 'enemies meet each other, and they are very clear', Sister Xue just took the opportunity to calculate the hot woman once." ”

The female voice said angrily: "Get out!"

The boy laughed, "Okay. ”

As soon as the words fell, the room was quiet again. Lan Ruo's expression, which had been changing, gradually regained his composure, first looking around blankly, and then holding his swollen and painful head, he fell into the wooden chair.

After a long time, she got up suddenly, and Ying Yingran walked downstairs, but saw that Ma Sanqi was already waiting downstairs, and instantly guessed the identity of the other party's shopkeeper, so she smiled and said: "There is a shopkeeper, I don't know what to call it?"

——————————

After purchasing oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, he went to the tea shop to buy twenty catties of fine cloud white tea, and spent eight yuan at once, which made him feel painful.

Later, he was about to go to the blacksmith shop to visit Shi Songhan, but was stopped by someone. Looking back, it turned out to be Yang Bocai wearing a brocade mink fur.

You Li smiled and bowed: "Long time no see! Congratulations to Yang Yuanwai for being promoted to the town's Lizheng." ”

Yang Bocai returned the salute and said, "Daoist Mo is happy with me." If you're not busy, why don't you go to my pharmacy?"

You thought about it and nodded.

The two sat down in the back hall of Yang Ji Pharmacy, and Yang Bocai asked with a smile while instructing his subordinates to look at the tea: "When will the Dao Heart Dao return to the mountain?"

"It's been twenty years. Yang Yuanwai's business has always been good?"

Yang Bocai sighed: "Hey, don't mention it! Not to mention the goods on this trip to the Xiongnu Giant Stone City, all the goods were folded on the road, and the survival of the entire caravan was less than a hand! To tell you the truth, I spent a full 200 guan on the aftermath this time, and with the loss of the goods, I lost a huge amount of 500 yuan. Alas, business is not easy. ”

You Li comforted him for a few words, and then asked, "Yang Yuanwai called me over this time, but I have something important to discuss?"

Yang Bocai smiled: "It's not important. Didn't you ask me about the security guard last time? I also checked by the way this time, and the security guard is said to have survived two dart masters, one of whom is the same age as the brother you are looking for, but unfortunately I have not been able to find out the specific identity of this person. However, I thought you might be using this news to let you know. ”

You Li hugged his fists and said, "Thank you! I won't tell you, my brother is exactly the one you said." ”

Yang Bocai was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Really, that's really good!"

You Li smiled and nodded, then lowered his head to drink tea.

Yang Bocai hesitated and said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen your father for a long time. The shopkeeper of the pharmacy here was talking to me about him yesterday. How's he's doing?"

You Li understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "My father was injured a little while ago while hunting, and he has been recuperating in the temple for several months, and now he is getting better. ”

As he spoke, he took out a bunch of medicinal herbs directly from his pouch, and there were all kinds of them, filling the entire table of eight immortals.

Yang Bocai smiled and said, "It seems that Brother You is still not old." ”

Then he remembered something and asked:

"By the way, have you heard? Yongyi Gong has been promoted, and the territory under his jurisdiction is based on the original Chaoshan Town, and has been incorporated into the entire territory of Anhua Town, including the mountains and rivers in this town!"
