Volume 2 The Beginning and End of the Martial Arts League Chapter 124 Grilled Fish
1.
The man in Tsing Yi in front of him filled the three empty lamps with wine and said to me, "The home-brewed rice flowers are mellow and fragrant, please use them." ”
I looked down at the small pearl-like bubbles bursting one after another in the hop-filled wine cup, and I hesitated. I said, "Isn't it toxic?"
The man in Tsing Yi smiled, picked up the wine cup and drank it all.
Still a little hesitant, I picked up the wine cup and put it to my nose and sniffed it. It has a very pure aroma of sake, with a faint aroma of rice.
"Are you done fighting?" Li Xiaoqian walked back with a twisted step, sat on the stone bench, and asked with a smile, "Are you still fighting?"
The man in the green shirt pushed the wine cup in front of Li Xiaoqian and said, "Shaolin's light skills." I haven't seen it on the rivers and lakes for a long time, I don't know who the brothers are?"
Li Xiaoqian took a sip of the wine cup and said, "Of course, it is someone who learned from the Shaolin faction." ”
The man in the green shirt nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad." Since it is a teacher from Shaolin, it should not be as simple as light work. Can you show us the mastery of the Shaolin School, so that you can see your horizons?"
Li Xiaoqian looked at the man in green shirt vigilantly and said, "I don't want to do anything with you, don't you want to throw stones at me!"
The man in the green shirt laughed and said, "Does my brother disdain to show it to me, or is he not confident because he is not proficient in his studies?"
Li Xiaoqian smiled disdainfully, made a "cut" sound in his mouth, and said: "You said let me show it, I want to show it, you have to buy a ticket to watch the circus first, you can show me first!"
The man in the green shirt shook his head with a smile, and poured wine for Li Xiaoqian's wine cup, and then, he actually picked up Li Xiaoqian's wine cup, held it in his hand, and his brows tightened suddenly.
Li Xiaoqian was dumbfounded. The man in the green shirt put the wine cup back in front of Li Xiaoqian, gently wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "It's ugly." ”
It's amazing!
Boiling wine in the palm of your hand is really a rare mastery in time.
In addition to sighing, I also had some doubts, ignoring the stunned man in the green shirt, grabbed his palm and looked back and forth. His skin was as delicate as a woman's, and he was obviously a pampered person with ten fingers that did not touch the spring water. His palms were slightly hot, and there was a light layer of sweat.
"Awesome!" I let go of the man in the green shirt, amazed.
The man in the green shirt frowned, rubbed his palm on the clothes a few times, and said, "It's over." He looked at Li Xiaoqian, and a trace of anticipation flashed in his eyes.
Li Xiaoqian seemed to understand, stood up, it was a spotless stone bench, I don't know why he patted his buttocks, walked out of the pavilion and stood on the edge of the paddy field, standing in a daze, staring at the water without moving.
When the wind blows, there seems to be a gray shadow skimming through the water. Li Xiaoqian held the dragon claw in his hand and quickly stretched out under the water. There was a "bang", and when he raised his hand again, he was holding a palm-sized crucian carp in his hand.
The man in the green shirt snorted "poof", and the wine squirted out. He hurriedly took out a square handkerchief from his sleeve and sipped the wine on the stone table, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, hehe, I'm sorry....."
Li Xiaoqian walked back with a grin, holding the crucian carp, and said, "Shaolin grappler!"
The man in the green shirt coughed twice in embarrassment and said, "It's really ..... Eye-opening!" He filled me with a drink, raised the cup and made a toasting gesture, and smiled, "Please." ”
"Wait!" Li Xiaoqian shouted, "There is no wine and no food, so tasteless." He stretched out the crucian carp to the face of the man in the green shirt and said, "The fire palm of the Crescent Moon Villa is famous all over the world, and since it can warm wine, it must be able to cook this crucian carp." ”
The man in the green shirt was stunned, then laughed and said, "This brother's eyesight is really powerful. ”
I was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean? You are a ...... from Crescent Villa."
The man in the green shirt brushed his palm in front of his face, peeling off a thin layer of skin, revealing Murong Shun's face full of scholarly temperament.

"Lord Ji League. Murong Shun hugged his fist at me and said with a smile, "I'm a little rude just now, please forgive me." ”
I said, "Why are you lying to me with a human skin mask?" ”
Murong Shun said: "I didn't come to see you with a human skin mask, but I have been wearing this mask all these days. ”
I asked, "Why?"
Murong Shun sighed and said, "It's all that boring person who manages the world." He repeatedly sent people to the Crescent Moon Villa to lobby for me to join him in trouble. His little bit of caution, I can see through, is nothing more than can't get mixed up, looking at my Crescent Moon Villa still has some self-grown grain, pull me in, so that I can be their rear. ”
Murong Shun played with the finely made human skin mask and said, "I have to change my face to be a human being. It's not my personality, but it saves me a lot of trouble. ”
Only then did I realize that while I was out lobbying, the same thing was going on in the world. I thought of what Xiao Yue said to me when she was leaving, Murong Shun was quite upright, and he could explain his intentions directly to him.
I said, "You can't be with your accomplices in the world, can you help me?"
Murong Shun was stunned and asked, "This is what you came here for?"
I said, "Yes." ”
Murong Shun smiled and said, "Does the alliance leader actually want to go around and win over others like he manages the world? You have the imperial court as the backstage, I'm afraid you won't care about a few acres of thin fields in me." ”
I looked at the fertile soil that tightly surrounds the Crescent Villa, plus the terraced fields on both sides, I am afraid that the total is not less than a thousand acres, and I said, "Your field is not thin at all." ”
"Hey, hey!" Li Xiaoqian impatiently shook the crucian carp in his hand and said, "Can you still roast this fish?"
When he said that, I felt a little hungry.
I looked at Murong Shun and asked, "Can you bake it?" ”
Murong Shun's face changed, and he looked at the crucian carp that was about to be pinched to death by Li Xiaoqian in a daze, revealing a trace of embarrassment.
I saw it in my eyes and didn't want to embarrass Murong Shun, so I said, "No, forget it." ”
Li Xiaoqian said: "Men can't say no!"
Murong Shun's face became ugly, he hesitated for a moment, reached out and grabbed the crucian carp in Li Xiaoqian's hand, frowned, and the crucian carp jumped a few times in his hand as if it was alive.
Gradually, the crucian carp stopped jumping, and the scales on its abdomen gradually changed from bright white to golden, and gradually faded and spread all over the body.
Murong Shun's forehead was sweating, and green smoke gradually rose from his hands. He gritted his teeth, his cheeks stirring.
I said, "Don't force it, forget it." ”
Li Xiaoqian emphasized it again and said: "Men can't say no!"
Murong Shun's brows tightened, the green tendons on his hands burst out, the crucian carp made a sizzling sound, the closed mouth of the fish slowly opened, and spit out white smoke.
After a few moments, I could already smell a clear fishy scent.
But Murong Shun's lips were already slightly white, and beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead and dripped onto his hands.
"It's so fragrant!" I couldn't help but sigh, "it smells like barbecue." ”
As soon as the words fell, Murong Shun shouted "ah", suddenly stood up, threw the crucian carp in his hand into the sky, and clutched his wrist with the other hand, and the palm of the hand that grilled the fish was already charred black.
"Ah!" Murong Shun cried, "My hands, my hands!"
I hurriedly stood up, supported Murong Shun, and asked with concern, "Are your hands okay?"
Murong Shun pushed my palm to my chest, and a scorching breath smothered my heart and lungs, heading straight for my throat. I took a few steps back and stood firm, only to see Murong Shun staring at me viciously.
I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and I was thinking about what to say, when I heard Murong Shun grit his teeth and say, "Is this the purpose of your trip?"
I said, "You, what do you mean by that?"
Murong Shun glared at Li Xiaoqian fiercely, gritted his teeth and said to me: "The two of you are singing and harmonizing, and you deliberately provoke me, just to abolish my fire palm and get rid of my trouble?"
"No!" I quickly explained, "I'm really just hungry." ”
Murong Shun didn't listen to my explanation, raised his hand and shook it in front of my eyes, and said, "Now you can rest assured." The Flame Palm is gone, I'm a useless person, and you don't have to go to great lengths to win me over. ”
"But ......"
As soon as I spoke, I was interrupted by Murong Shun, who said, "I won't do anything for the world, you guys go!"
"I really ......"
I wanted to explain again, but Li Xiaoqian quietly pulled the corner of my clothes behind me, and said to Murong Shun with a fist: "Since this is the case, we won't bother." ”
I still wanted to say something to save Murong Shun, but Li Xiaoqian grabbed my arm with his hand and dragged me out of the Burmese Pavilion alive.

As I walked away from the Pavilion, I looked back at the green shadow standing in the pavilion, and I felt as if there was a foreign object blocking my chest, which was very uncomfortable.
I said, "Why is this happening?" ”
Li Xiaoqian said: "A bitter plan." ”
Help?
Could it be that Murong Shun did it on purpose to show me?
Li Xiaoqian said: "This result is already good, Murong Shun has his own attitude, he doesn't want to openly rebel against the Wulin League with Guan Tianxia, and he doesn't want to offend you." ”
Only then did I understand why Murong Shun had to force the fish to be scorched, and he deliberately designed such a scene for me to see, just so that he could get out of this dispute.
However, Xiao Yue also said that he was above board. "I was disappointed.
Li Xiaoqian sighed and said, "There are still many people in this world who can't see through. Murong Shun has already done this, it is much better than the person who promised you on the surface, but stabbed you in the back. ”
Who would be such a person?
Li Xiaoqian walked slowly in front of me, and his steps were relaxed that I couldn't understand. I remembered Xiaoyue's words, and she told me not to blindly believe Li Xiaoqian......
"Are you going to stab me in the back?" I couldn't help but ask.
Li Xiaoqian's pace slowed down suddenly, he lowered his head, seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and said softly, "No." ”
