Chapter Twenty-Four: Acquaintances
Where was the demon merchant willing to give up, and was about to catch up, but saw her walking briskly towards a young monk, and asked the head of the monk of Middle-earth for a long time, no wonder she said "ten years later" This kind of crazy thing turned out to be playing with him.
"What do you mean to come back in 10 years?"
Qin Xi couldn't figure it out for a while, was she deliberately playing with that demon businessman?
Ling Hu Zhenzhen replied bluntly: "I want to be a closed disciple for the master for ten years first." ”
"Then, ten years later, come over to be a servant? Do you know what the demon servants of the Great Wilderness do?"
"I don't know very much. Ling Hu Zhenzhen thought for a while, "Singing and dancing, I didn't know what a craftsman was before I became a craftsman, but Master still spent money to buy me as a closed disciple." If I can learn in these ten years, I will become a craftsman. If you can't learn it, singing and dancing should be easier than that of a craftsman. ”
There are really so many strange things in the Great Wilderness, and the disciples who have closed the door can still spend money to buy them? The next time she said that she jumped out of the stone, he was not surprised.
Qin Xi sighed and shook his head: "Linghu girl, you still need to see more of the things in this world." ”
Isn't she watching now?
Ling Hu Zhenzhen went up to the corridor and leaned on the railing to look down, and said: "I came from the first floor just now, and the door guard didn't let me in, saying that the hall on the first floor only entertains famous monks, aren't you too famous to be a famous family?"
Zhou Jing became irritable when he heard her ridiculous slip of the tongue, and killed her viciously with his eyes: "It's too high-spirited! It's a famous family among famous families! So I begged Lao Tzu to go in, but Lao Tzu didn't enter!"
Purple Void Peak is also one of the prominent immortal sects in Middle Earth, as the saying goes, the most powerful of the rich immortal sects, the richest of the powerful immortal sects - they are talking about. Because of this, domineering and nostrils facing the sky is their consistent style. The most common thing for monks in his family to do when they go out is to smash various places under their wallets, and then draw circles, and only allow famous monks to enter, so as to show their noble status.
How could the monks of the Taishang Mai join in this kind of fun, as if they had to admit whether they were famous or not, what kind of thing.
Zhou Jing leaned on the railing and looked down, secretly relieved - fortunately, the Purple Void Peak monk who came was not the one he knew, otherwise he didn't know how embarrassing it would be.
After a while, Gu Cai's two junior brothers who had been listening to the song in the hall on the first floor came, looking only sixteen or seventeen years old, still childish, and complaining with excitement on their faces: "I have been singing songs for almost an hour, and they are not as good as the new singers of our Middle Earth Pavilion, and most of the momentum of the Great Wilderness Demon Singers is touted." ”
Gu Cai only smiled: "Since you have seen it, and you feel bored, why don't you go out of the city......?"
Before the words fell, I heard a fierce drum sound downstairs, which was deafening, and all the guests in the Tianyin Building were in an uproar, and they all went to the corridor to look around.
Soon a tall and bewitching woman took the stage, dressed in a bright and close-fitting silver dress, with a thin waist and the rhythm of drums. People must not be able to twist like this, she is most likely a snake demon.
Seeing that the music is approaching the climax, there are two butterfly demon little servants who spread their gorgeous butterfly wings and spin, and the gold powder between the sleeves falls brightly, which is extremely beautiful.
Someone next to him asked repeatedly: "Isn't this the most famous one...... The snake demon Yu dancer of the Forgotten Mountain Pavilion?"
Yu Wuling brings two butterfly demon little singers every time she comes to the stage, and the flying flowers and colorful silk swirl around, which can be described as famous in the Great Wilderness, and even the Emperor of the Western Wilderness is very fond of it, and you have to see it every year.
The other person smiled and said: "Who is this Yu Wuling, and she is a snake demon who was raised by another Lingling Pavilion to compete for the limelight, right? ”
Gu Cai's two junior disciples saw the charm of the demon singer for the first time, and they had already thrown Yixing Yanshan away from the clouds, and when they heard about the Yu dancer in the Forgotten Mountain Pavilion, they were ready to move, and begged Gu Cai in a low voice: "Senior brother, is it good to stay for one more night? It's rare to come to the Great Wilderness, we will also go to the Forgotten Mountain Pavilion to see and understand? If you don't feel at ease, go together, we promise to only watch the dance and listen to the songs, and never do anything else." ”
Gu Cai refused: "We didn't come to the Great Wilderness for the land of wind and moon, so we are not allowed to go." ”
The two of them grinded him for a long time, and finally annoyed him, and said coldly with a sinking face: "If you say more, you will return to Middle-earth tomorrow." You ask yourself, are you worthy of being a monk of the Sancai Tianzi Sect?"
When they said this, they could only keep silent.
It just so happened that the snake demon dancer finished dancing, followed by Mo Lan Lingren from the Forgotten Mountain Pavilion on stage. She was dressed in a gorgeous black dress, holding a jade pipa in her arms, and when she stood there, her momentum was completely different from that of other people in the small hall.
When she flicked her five fingers and sang with Manqi Zhu's lips, everyone felt that the entire Tianyin Tower seemed to be shrouded in a warm and sweet charming fragrance, and countless tiny black petals floated down the sky. Halfway through the singing, she put down the jade pipa, and the butterfly demon behind her gently blew the bamboo flute, and she danced with the sound of the flute.
Zhou Jing covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, frowned, and said, "What kind of demon is this, the smell is so big!"
Ling Fox Zhenzhen stretched her neck and looked at it for a long time: "She has a black peony flower ornament hanging on her waist, it should be a black peony flower demon." ”
Qin Xi didn't believe it: "Hanging black peony flower ornaments is the black peony demon? ”
That's in Middle-earth, and the demons on this side of the Great Wilderness are all arrogant and willful, so they won't have scruples.
Ling Fox Zhenzhen was ready to instill in him the common sense of the Great Wilderness, and the monk Taishang didn't know what was going on, since he came to the Great Wilderness, he didn't do his homework in advance.
But I heard him say again: "Although the blood of the black peony is rare, it can't rub the demonic energy and fragrance together." This servant is not simple, but he is afraid that he is a flower demon with a more precious bloodline. ”
Seeing Linghu Zhenzhen looking at herself, Qin Xi said, "I guess." There are also such powerful flower demons in the Great Wilderness, it seems that it is very reasonable to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles. ”
Her eyes lit up: "You also know this sentence, and Uncle often says it." ”
Qin Xi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "This is a saying in Middle-earth, your uncle is from Middle-earth?"
She shook her head: "I don't know, an uncle is an uncle." ”
"You didn't ask?"
"I don't care about his identity outside, it's good that he's my uncle. ”
What is "outside" and "inside"? Qin Xi couldn't figure out what she meant for a while, so he only asked, "Then for you, what is my identity outside?"
Ling Fox Zhenzhen replied quickly: "Monk of Middle-earth." ”
"What's inside?"
She thought about a problem, frowned and thought for a long time, and said, "Creditor?"
Qin Xi tried his best to hold back a smile, okay, he understood what she meant.
After Mo Lan finished singing, she stepped down after saluting, and soon a young lady with a beautiful face put on a power bully for her. Seeing her drift away, the spirits of Gu Cai's two junior brothers seemed to drift away, no matter how he frowned and reprimanded, they were so angry that Gu Cai didn't greet him, and left on his own.
Ling Fox Zhenzhen buried her head in eating snacks, and because she felt that Qin Xi was staring at her, she simply handed over the small bamboo basket generously.
He was not polite, pinched a grain and threw it in his mouth, and suddenly asked, "How far is Dingyun City from here?"
She dutifully played the role of a guide: "Dingyun City is in the westernmost part of the Western Wilderness, see how you go." If you want to go faster, you can get there in about ten days, but you can only go to the wild mountains and forests. If you want to stay in town, you will probably have to pass through four more cities, but it will definitely take a long time. ”
It's still going to town, and in any case, it's more comfortable than sleeping in the mountains and forests and sleeping in the mud.
Qin Xi listened absentmindedly to the singer singing for a while, and suddenly said: "Linghu girl, I think my identity inside is not only a creditor, but also an employer, and the two things are superimposed, which can be regarded as acquaintances." ”
Ling Hu Zhenzhen didn't say anything, whether it was an acquaintance or not depends on how he settles the bill in the end, and it is not good for acquaintances to become enemies.
He turned his head to look at her: "Are you thinking that if I open my mouth, I will be an acquaintance and an enemy?"
She shook her hand again and again: "I didn't." ”
"Are you thinking now that I might be mind-reading?"
Really?!, Fox Zhenzhen turned around suddenly.
Qin Xi smiled very modestly: "Of course I won't, it's just that you can't hide what is in your eyes." This is not a good thing, and it will have to be changed in the future. ”
*
The noisy selection of servants continued to be noisy for three days, and finally cleared up on the fourth day.
On the twenty-third day of the winter month, the snow was ravouring, and at dawn, Gu Cai suddenly visited.
This Sancai Sect monk attaches great importance to etiquette, even if his face is full of anxiety, when he sees the two Taishang Pulse monks, he still bows and apologizes: "I'm really sorry to visit at such an hour." The day before yesterday, I said goodbye to the two in a hurry, and if the etiquette was not considerate, I hope to forgive. ”
"You don't have to be polite, you have something to say. ”
Zhou Jing has always been tired of this Rory's rambling set, he will come before dawn, there must be something urgent, and what kind of etiquette is there.
Gu Cai really stopped talking nonsense and went straight to the point: "Don't hide it from the two of you, my two junior brothers are missing." ”
It turned out that after returning to the inn that day, he still scolded them severely. They are all Tianzimen monks, even if the junior disciples are younger, they should not be shaken by a few beautiful demon singers. Xu said it too harshly, but it aroused their rebellious hearts, and the youngest junior brother secretly ran away that night.
Gu Cai didn't realize until the second day, and in a fit of rage, he used the messenger technique to urge, but he never heard back. waited until the evening, when the little junior brother was still nowhere to be seen, and the second junior brother said in anxiety that he had gone to the Lethe Mountain Pavilion to see Yu Wuling and the Mo Lan Lingren.
What's worse is that this second junior brother is an anxious son, because he saw that the little junior brother never returned, he couldn't help but secretly ran to the Ling Pavilion to investigate the truth that night, and there was no news of him this time.
Gu Caigan waited for a day, and finally felt that things were not good, and he couldn't help but secretly regret that his tone was too heavy, if he agreed to accompany him that day, it might not lead to today's results. He was worried that it would be difficult to break the situation alone, so he had to come to the two Taishang Pulse Cultivators to discuss.
"The Lingguan of Fallen Immortal City is mostly the business of the monks of Middle-earth, so I don't think it will cause harm to me. Gu Cai's face was full of gloom, "I'm only worried that the people in the Lingguan are hiding evil intentions, but firstly, the Lingguan family in the Forgotten Mountain is a big business, and it is the industry of the Emperor of the Western Wilderness; I think maybe there are other monks in the city who have suffered the same thing, and they should look around, what do you two think?"
It seems that the sudden disappearance of the two junior disciples still made this Sancai Sect monk confused, Qin Xi shook his head: "Now there are not ten thousand monks in this city, but there are thousands, where can I find out? Not to mention that there are many fish and dragons here, and they are missing for unknown reasons, if there is a trouble, it may not be a good thing." ”
Gu Cai got up and arched his hand and said: "I'm really not sure if I'm alone, I beg you two to help, and go to the Forgotten Mountain Pavilion tonight to find out." ”
As soon as the words fell, a soft voice sounded not far away: "Forget the Mountain Pavilion, is it the one with the snake demon dancer?"
Saying that, Linghu Zhenzhen walked over, she always got up early, and at this time she was holding two buns in her hand that she didn't know where to buy, and the meat was fragrant.
Qin Xi said: "That's the one, do you want to go together?"
Zhou Jing frowned, take a little girl to this kind of unorthodox place? Yuan Xi has come to the Great Wilderness more and more unlikely.
I didn't want her to answer cheerfully: "Okay, I'll go." ”
