Chapter 32: Human Nature

"Ji Xiao, I want to find something to do. The girl lifted the lotus leaf covering Ji Xiao's face.

They opened a small pond of their own behind the retreat, and planted lotus flowers in it, because some elixirs were also put in the pond together, and Ji Xiao crossed a lot of grass and tree essence in it, but the lotus flowers bloomed in half a day, which was completely different from the autumn scene outside.

After getting this, Ji Xiao, who originally wanted to study the blood, didn't bother to move, so he simply took a lotus leaf to cover his face, and slept on the recliner by the pond, basking in the autumn sun.

"Well, what do you want to do?" Ji Xiao asked lazily.

"I went around the city, and suddenly I had an idea, how about I open a flower shop?" asked the girl.

"Yes. ”

"Really?"

"But where are you going to open your shop?"

"It's nearby, I've heard from the people of the city that the land around this lake has been bought by many wealthy people, and they are going to come and build houses nearby, and it will definitely be very popular in the future. ”

"So you like crowded places?"

"No, I like to be pure, but I also want to observe the red dust, which will help me practice, so I think it's a good idea to open a flower shop, where you can meet some different people every day, and it's not very noisy. ”

Ji Xiao sat up and said with a smile: "You think about it quite thoroughly, is there anything you want me to help with?"

"Really, I haven't opened a store, so I don't know what to prepare?"

Ji Xiao said: "This matter is on me. ”

The girl smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you." ”

............

Zhu Yicai said: "Aren't you on vacation today, what's the matter with me?"

Ji Xiao smiled and said, "Please do me a favor." ”

"It's rare to have a chance to help you, what do you say you want to do?"

Ji Xiao said again about the girl's opening of the store, Zhu Yicai's family is wealthy, and these trivial matters are for him, as long as Zhu Yicai orders it, he will definitely be able to do it properly.

After hearing this, Zhu Yicai smiled and said: "This is a trivial matter, my family actually began to enclose land by the lake, the old man told me a few days ago, there are great business opportunities there, he actually wants the land of the Garan Temple the most, build a mountain residence there, and pass it on as an ancestral industry in the future." ”

Ji Xiao smiled and said, "If it's just to build a house, I can help you." ”

Zhu Yicai said: "Master palpitation, do you have a way?"

Ji Xiao said leisurely: "Because I am the presiding officer of the Garan Temple." ”

"Huh?"

"Don't be surprised, the appointing clerk will come down soon. ”

Zhu Yicai had to be shocked, he knew that the Jialan Temple was targeted by many people, after all, the lake and the Jialan Temple were the source of miracles, but because of the miracles, the matter had spread, so no one in Jiangzhou could eat this piece of meat in the covetousness of everyone for the time being, but he didn't expect the palpitation master to become the host of the Jialan Temple silently.

Although he knew that Master Throbbing was a strange man, he never imagined that he had such influence in the world.

When Ji Xiao saw his expression, he was relieved, and said with a slight smile: "I am an idle cloud and wild crane, I have no power in the world, this time it is only because of fate that I have become the host of the Garan Temple, there are a lot of mountains and land, which piece of land does your father want, tell me at that time." ”

Zhu Yicai said: "I can practice, it is all because of your help, I should do something for you, when the time comes, my father will use the market price to buy land, you must not refuse." I know you don't care about money, but you can still make it easier for yourself. By the way, I told my grandfather about you, and it turns out that he also knows about cultivators, and he told me to make good friends with you. ”

Ji Xiao knew that Zhu Yicai's grandfather, Zhu Shan, had been the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate. Being in the center of the Empire, it's normal to have an understanding of cultivators. He has no intention of cultivating any forces now, so it is still necessary to make a few friends like Zhu Yicai, which can help him deal with many small troubles, otherwise he has to do some small things himself, and his life is too uncomfortable.

Ji Xiao said: "It's okay, but you still tell your grandfather, don't publicize it about me." ”

"Don't worry, my grandfather also said that a strange person like you must like to be pure and comfortable. ”

Ji Xiao nodded slowly, asked Zhu Yicai about his cultivation progress, and then said goodbye and left.

......

Zhu Yicai was really quick to do things, and he helped the girl open a flower shop in a short time.

On the day of the opening, Zhu Yicai also called a lot of students from the school palace.

"Hello lecturer. ”

"Hello teacher. ”

Because he knows most of the students, he naturally wants to receive them. As a result, I don't know who started it, but they all called the girl to come.

The girl was not annoyed, but just explained that she and Ji Xiao were friends.

"So you've been with her all these days. Little Lady Nie also came, and said in a low voice in front of Ji Xiao.

"Hmm. Ji Xiao nodded.

Nie Xiaoniang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Now I'm going back to tell my father." ”

"How?"

"He mentioned you in front of me if he had something to do, don't think I don't know what he means, now that you have found a good match, he should always die. Little Lady Nie said indignantly.

Seeing her expression, Ji Xiao really seemed to be a lot more relaxed, and couldn't help but think: Could it be that she really doesn't mean anything to me at all?

He was naturally a little relieved, but he also felt something he had never felt before, like a loss, and like a little resentment. He smacked it carefully, and he knew the origin of this emotion, just because he was very popular with girls, and suddenly a girl showed that he didn't like him, which naturally made him feel bad.

"That's the despicability of human nature. Ji Xiao thought to himself, he has lived in the world for a long time, and he is becoming more and more like a real person.

The two chatted for a while, and Nie Xiaoniang said goodbye to him. After she turned to leave, the ease on her face disappeared, and there was a hint of melancholy.

The lake is like a mirror, and the little lady Nie walks by the lake.

"Sister, do you want to buy flowers?"

A little girl with a dusty face, carrying a basket of chrysanthemums, stopped Nie Xiaoniang.

Nie Xiaoniang said in her heart: I just came out of the flower shop, and I bought it in the flower shop a long time ago.

But she looked down and saw that the little girl was wearing only a thin dress in this cold autumn season, and she couldn't help but feel sympathy. She took out all the money on her body and said, "I bought all your flowers." ”

At this time, the divine toad beside Ji Xiao suddenly croaked.

Ji Xiao's expression was grim.

At some point, a melodious bell rang by the lake.

Ji Xiao shook his body slightly, and then went to the lake and saw the little girl beside Nie Xiaoniang.

His heart throbbed, and he hurriedly formed a magic seal, and his strength shot at the little girl like a bow and crossbow.

At the same time, the bell became clearer, and the target was the little girl who sold flowers.

Little Lady Nie is still a little strange, I don't know where this bell came from.

A strange smile appeared on the corner of the little girl's mouth, and she handed the flower basket to Nie Xiaoniang.
