Chapter 642: Noodle House
"Hurry up and talk about things, just follow what we said before. After that, I still have to take a ferry to leave Yunmeng and go to Xiyou, and I don't have time to stay in Yunshui City for a long time. "Before you see him, you hear his voice. In a few breaths, Zhuge Chen sat beside Ye Yan and looked at the ancestor of the Zhu family on the main seat.
The ancestor of the Zhu family didn't expect that he had already arranged a ferry for Bai Yi, but he always stayed in the city in order to leave. He thought that he could deal with Ye Yan for a short time, and the later the profit was delivered to Da Shiji, the better. It's just that he didn't expect the appearance of Bai Yi to disrupt his overall plan.
"Sword Immortal, it turns out that you are still in Yunshui City! If I knew that this was the case, I would have arranged for a big banquet in the Zhu family's ancestral mansion to be a treat. I've heard that Sword Immortals like to drink, and it just so happens that I've collected a lot of alcohol that I don't usually see over the years. If you don't feel like you're enjoying it, give it to the sword fairy. The ancestor of the Zhu family said with a dry smile, he felt dry and didn't know what to say after living for so long.
And Zhuge Chen shook his head and said: "There is no need to be so troublesome, the ancestor only needs to do the best of what you promised." It's not a difficult thing, it's just a profit, just turn a blind eye and just endure the pain. Besides, you don't want to see the Big Stone Ridge cavalry soldiers in the city again, right?"
In Baiyi's words, for the Zhu family, the big stone ridge they originally looked down on is now high. Not only in those well-trained cavalry that rushed in like a tide, but also in the fact that Ye Yan, who was a sword cultivator in the realm of the True Dao, was able to suppress the terrifying killing power of the ancestor of the Zhu family. No matter how you look at it, this success is not something they can keep, and it is the trend of the situation to give it to Dashijiji. But this does not prevent the entire Zhu family from choosing to keep this profit in their own hands for a short time because of greed, and take the money in their hands first. When the time comes, Dashiji will send someone to inquire, and it will not be easy to prevaricate the past?
It's good to ask three questions and not know.
"But ......"
The ancestor of the Zhu family still wanted to argue something, but was interrupted by Ye Yan on the side in annoyance: "Old thing, it doesn't matter if you don't count. It's a big deal that the old lady will leave Yunshui City now, counting the time, the cavalry of the big stone ridge didn't go far anyway, I will call them all back, and we will fight again. And this time, it's useless for anyone to stop them, life and death must be separated!"
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhuge Chen, and said, "I just don't know, are you still this peacemaker?"
Bai Yi smiled, waved his hand and said, "If you don't do a good thing a second time, you can only choose to stand by and watch." ”
When the ancestor of the Zhu family heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "Since this is the case, then I will arrange for someone to go to the ferry now, pack up the account book that Yicheng should have, and let the children of the Zhu family withdraw, how about it?"
"The best!" Ye Yan snorted coldly and walked out of the bell tower. And Zhuge Chen also smiled and nodded with the ancestor of the Zhu family, and got up to see off the female sect master.
Seeing a lot of battles between the forces of the two sides, Zhuge Chen no longer has any ups and downs in his mood. However, if he had to choose between the ancestor of the Zhu family and Ye Yan, he would naturally appreciate the latter more. The former is not happy to do things, and a large number of people who are going to be buried in the earth at an age, and they still care about this and that, which is very boring. What's more, Ye Yan is still a sword cultivator who dares to ask him about swords, so he will make a judgment.
Walking to the clouds, Zhuge Chen and Ye Yan said, "I won't be far away, I should go back here." Your kendo is good, and I will be very helpful after asking the sword, and I hope to see you at a higher place in the future. A well-deserved female sword immortal is very important to this world. ”
Ye Yan had some resentment and wanted to get close to Zhuge Chen, but Bai Yi took half a step back to dodge. This made the unambiguous woman with the sword even more sad in her eyes, and said with tears in her eyes: "Don't you really go to the big stone ridge with me, don't hide it, I will miss you." ”
"Stop, stop. Zhuge Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "If this matter is known to my fellow Daoists, there will be no good life for me." And the two of us met in Pingshui, how can we be like you, like an old lover who hasn't seen each other for many years. ”
After hearing this, Ye Yan laughed so much that she couldn't straighten her waist. After she returned to normal, she spoke: "It's hard to imagine what kind of woman it will be that will make such a young sword immortal like you move your heart. To be honest, I envy her. If you have the chance, bring her to me to see, and I swear by my own future that I will never talk nonsense. If you don't believe me, if I have such a sign, draw your sword and kill me. If I want to catch up with you in this life, I'm afraid there is no hope. For me, the Pseudo-Saint Realm is all extravagant hopes. Your future realm will never stop here. ”
"Don't say so much, in short, thank you for helping Big Stone Ridge so much. I don't have anything to do to repay you, so when you take the ferry, you must take the one on the big stone ridge. I will arrange someone to take care of you, in short, it is better than the Zhu family. She waved her hand as a farewell, turned away, and after leaving a word, she swept away.
But after a while, she turned back again, stared at Zhuge Chen for a while, and asked, "I forgot to ask the most important thing, what kind of realm is you with enough killing power to kill the realm of the Great Zhen Dao?"
"It's just a bamboo basket in the past. Zhuge Chen replied.
"There is no heavenly reason!" Ye Yan said angrily: "I said a long time ago, people are more popular than people, but how can there be such a way to not leave people alive!"
Of course, the realm of a young cultivator is the criterion for judging talent, but what can prove the level more than this is the killing power. The higher the killing power is out of the realm, the more it cannot be speculated by common sense, and the higher the peak in the future. The realm is nothing more than a matter of course, as well as three kinds of difficult to climb to the sky and difficult to break.
And as the pride of the sky, he naturally belongs to the first type. As time passed, the realm and killing power became more and more elevated.
Zhuge Chen looked at Ye Yan's back as he returned and left, shook his head helplessly, and returned to Yunshui City.
......
Approaching dusk, Zhuge Chen walked into a noodle restaurant, asked the shopkeeper for a bowl of noodles, and then casually found a chair to sit down and wait.
Although the noodle restaurant is small, it has all kinds of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Like Baiyi, who likes to eat sweets, he can also return with a full stomach. But the whole noodle restaurant is busy with only one shopkeeper, a small business, and he can't afford to recruit the second shopkeeper. The money earned can satisfy the whole family, which is already very good, and if you add another mouth, you will have to starve to death.
Just when Zhuge Chen was eating noodles with peace of mind, a man with five big and three rough walked into the noodle restaurant, followed by several ruffian-like men behind him. They looked around, snorting melon seeds, looking like they didn't care about being invincible.
Zhuge Chen just raised his head and took one more look, and was targeted by the man. The other party stepped forward and slapped the table, making the noodle soup in the white bowl splash: "What do you see, can't you find death?"
Zhuge Chen smiled and said, "Misunderstanding, I just want to take a look outside." A friend of mine went out on an errand, and I was looking to see if he had come back. ”
The man snorted coldly and walked in front of Zhuge Chen. The diners around were relieved and ready to check out and leave.
The man named Zhu Zhi is not small, and in the entire Yunshui City, he can be regarded as a ridiculous character with a face. Born in the main line of the Zhu family, but not serious, although food and clothing are worry-free, but I still feel that I am full of talent and have nowhere to vent. finally led a group of people to threaten to go out of the city to explore the rivers and lakes, and the result is like this, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, and he relies on his surname in the city to make a fortune.
Every once in a while, he would go to the merchants on the long street to collect money, which was called protection money. In addition, there are many things that bully men and women. Although Zhu Zhi's actions were enough to arouse public indignation, how could he be a member of the main line of the Zhu family, and no one dared to say anything in Yunshui City. I can only pinch my nose and swallow the grievances, after all, it is better than losing my life in vain.
At the same time, the shopkeeper who had been busy for a long time walked out of the back kitchen, carrying the last bowl of noodles and preparing to give it to the guests, but he bumped into Zhu Zhi's body head-on. The shopkeeper raised his head and saw the face full of flesh, and immediately lost all the three souls and seven spirits. sat on the ground, and it took a long time before he stumbled and said, "Zhu ...... Zhu Gongzi, why are you here?"
Zhu Zhi sneered, grabbed the shopkeeper's hair, lifted the other party to look at him, and said: "Why can't I come, the entire long street is my territory, where do I need your guidance?"
"The little one is a noodle seller, how dare you do this?" said the shopkeeper hurriedly.
"That's good. Zhu Yi let go and let the shopkeeper, who was already five short stature, sit on the ground: "When will you give me this month's money? If you continue to default, Lao Tzu will let people smash your noodle restaurant and let your whole family go to the street to drink the northwest wind!"
"Zhu Gongzi, our noodle shop is a small business, where did we get so much money? You can't be a little accommodating, let us owe it first? When you get rich, you can say whatever you say." No matter how many bowls of noodles you eat, it's not a problem. But now, I'm a poor shopkeeper, I really don't have much money! You let me take the money, I really can't help it!" It's just that I want to cry without tears, I only have a bitter face, and what I say is moving.
But instead of sympathy, Zhu Zhi slapped the shopkeeper on the body and said sharply: "Rules are rules, the rules set by Lao Tzu, no one can not abide by them? You can try to see if this noodle shop can be opened on this long street if you don't pay tomorrow! No, it's in the entire Yunshui City!"
After hearing this, the shopkeeper collapsed to the ground, and only repeated two words in his mouth: "It's over, it's over......"
"Yunshui Zhu family, it's really majestic!" At this moment, a voice sounded, and the white clothes got up and walked with a smile.
