Chapter 18: An Awkward Breakfast
Mo Lin listened carefully to Luo Zheng's instructions, and asked the female disciple waiting on the side to take a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and wrote a reply letter in person.
After taking a look at the kite, please order the female disciple to send the reply letter quickly, and there must be no delay.
The female disciple took the order and left, Mo Lin still had doubts in his heart, but he did not continue to ask.
"This girl is good, how old is she? is it Mr. Mo's personal disciple?"
After the female disciple left, Luo Zheng asked, I had met the inn once before, and Luo Ruxue had contact before she woke up, and it was the third time she had just sent the letter.
Luo Zheng had a good impression of her, and felt that this disciple would become a great thing in the future.
"Hehe, thanks to Elder Luo's praise. ”
"This child is not my disciple, but my adopted daughter, whom I named Mobutterfly, and is fourteen years old this year. ”
"She was still a swaddling baby when I picked her up. ”
"She has been by my side all these years, and she has not found a mentor for her, but I have taught her some occasionally. ”
Mo Lin said softly, with a loving look in his eyes.
"It turned out to be an orphan......
Luo Zheng whispered in a whisper, and then stopped asking.
After the banquet, Luo Zheng and Luo Ruxue went back to the house to rest, just like when they were in the inn, Luo Ruxue was in the inner room, and Luo Zheng was in the outer room.
Mo Lin was left alone in the living room, waiting for Mo Butterfly to return with a letter.
......
The sky was bright, Luo Zheng waited for Luo Ruxue to get up, and Mo Butterfly invited the two to the living room for breakfast.
Seeing Mo Butterfly, the two greeted each other kindly, Mo Butterfly was slightly stunned, she knew the identity of the two very well, she didn't expect to greet an inconspicuous existence like her, her little face immediately flushed, and she bowed her head and was silent for a long time before she stumbled and responded to the two.
Luo Zheng smiled slightly, and didn't say anything more, for fear of being too enthusiastic and scaring the child.
Luo Ruxue didn't care at all, and she didn't have a princess's shelf, so she warmly took Mo Butterfly's hand and chatted to herself.
When he came to the living room, Mo Lin was flattered to see the princess who treated Mo Butterfly so warmly, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
After some greetings, Mo Lin invited the two to sit down, and Luo Ruxue pulled Mo Butterfly and asked her to eat together by her side.
Mo Butterfly waved her hand again and again, not daring to sit down, but Luo Zheng said that there was nothing wrong, and Mo Butterfly sat down tremblingly, eating breakfast carefully, which was completely different from her previous ability.
Luo Zheng smiled to herself, she liked Mo Butterfly very much, there was a sense of indescribable intimacy, thinking that Mo Butterfly This child has stayed in the Purple Sword Pavilion since he was a child, following Mo Lin's side, he should not have gone out to practice, and he still needs to be honed in terms of sophistication and temperament.
During the banquet, Mo Lin told Luo Zheng that Mo Butterfly came back early this morning, and the head gate said that he already knew, but he didn't say anything else, and he didn't reply again.
Luo Zheng nodded after hearing this, and asked, "Mr. Mo, are you going with us on this trip to Xilin County?"
Mo Lin shook his head with some regret and said: "Hey, I'm afraid it won't work, I've been trapped for many years, and now I still have some things to deal with when I return, and I won't be able to leave here for a while." ”
"Well, how about letting Ink Butterfly go with us?"
Mo Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, if he could really follow Luo Zheng and Luo Ruxue, not to mention the experience, just by becoming close to the relationship between the two, it would be a gain.
But there was embarrassment on his face, and he frowned and said, "Mo Butterfly... This kid hasn't gone out to practice much, and his human feelings are relatively poor, so he won't make trouble for the two. ”
Luo Zheng smiled and waved his hand, and said: "Hehe, Mr. Mo is too worried, I also see that Mo Butterfly has not experienced much, so I propose to take her with me, it is not troublesome, I will treat it dutifully." ”
Mo Lin's face was happy, and he quickly got up and saluted Luo Ruxue and Luo Ruxue.
"Then the little girl will ask the two of you. ”
Ink Butterfly also stood up and bowed to the two.
After breakfast, the three of them went back to the house to pack their things and set off immediately.
Mo Lin led the disciples to send the three of them outside the town, and did not return until they were out of sight.
The letter said that there were still five to seven days before the opening of the fairy tomb, due to the urgency of time, the three of them traveled day and night, Luo Zheng and Mo Butterfly were both cultivators, and it was nothing to rush day and night, but Luo Ruxue was more sad, although she also practiced, but she only knew some simple techniques, and she had not learned them systematically, and the spiritual power in her body was also very lacking, so she could not be compared with the two of them.
The two had to take turns carrying Luo Ruxue on their backs.
In the early morning of the third day after departure, the three of them rushed to Xilin County.
Luo Zheng shook his body slightly, Luo Ruxue on his back rubbed his eyes, sighed, stood on the ground in a daze, and squinted and looked around.
"That's it? fast..."
Luo Ruxue sighed very much.
"These three days have been too rushed, and I have wronged Miss Wronged. ”
Luo Zheng said, bowing slightly, which was regarded as making amends, and the ink butterfly on the side also hurriedly bowed to Luo Ruxue, with a serious face.
"It's okay, Sister Luo, Mo Butterfly doesn't need to be polite, it's normal to go out and run around, isn't it. ”
Luo Zheng smiled and nodded.
"Okay, let's find a place to have breakfast first, go to the inn to rest after breakfast, and then go to the Purple Sword Pavilion Annex tomorrow." ”
The three of them could have gone directly to the Purple Sword Pavilion Annex and had a meal and rest there, but Luo Zheng didn't go there so early, and he didn't want to meet the people from the main gate too early.
Luo Ruxue nodded, didn't feel anything wrong, looked around, and began to look for a favorite breakfast shop.
Although Mo Butterfly had some objections, before going out, her adoptive father Mo Lin told her that everything was arranged by Luozheng, and there was no need to have any objections, so she didn't think much about it anymore and helped Luo Ruxue find a breakfast shop together.
The three of them finally chose a small shop at the gate of the county town, breakfast was just served, and the three of them were about to eat, when they heard someone behind them say loudly: "Haha, what a coincidence, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Hearing the voice, Luo Ruxue was stunned, and saw that the kite on the side frowned, with a look of disgust, and the ink butterfly on the other side looked embarrassed, pretending to bow her head to eat, and her little face was almost in the bowl.
"Yo, not only did the girl fall, but the ink girl also came, it's really rare, that old antique is actually relieved that you came out by yourself. ”
"Also, what's wrong with following the girl. ”
The voice was getting closer, but he didn't pay any attention to him, but it didn't sound like the man was embarrassed at all.
Seeing that neither the kite nor the ink butterfly reacted, Luo Ruxue raised her head curiously, and looked around to see a handsome man coming from the corner, twenty-seven or eighteen, wearing a purple robe, embroidered with a golden tiger, with sleeves rolled up, and a long whip of unknown material hanging from his waist, waving his arms, looking at them with a spring breeze on his face.
"Yo yo, there's a beautiful girl I don't know, haha, I'm glad I'll be lucky. ”
As he spoke, the man had already walked behind Luo Zheng, and while greeting Luo Ruxue, he naturally put his arm on Luo Zheng's shoulder.
"My name is Qiu Nan, and I am the hall master of the Purple Sword Pavilion Discipline Hall. ”
"Hey, wontons and meat buns, not bad, this meatball soup is also good, give you a bowl to try?"
"Shopkeeper, there are three more bowls of meatball soup at this table. ”
Luo Ruxue looked at it blankly, this man named Qiu Nan was always talking to himself, although he had just greeted her, but before she could respond, he shifted his attention to their breakfast, and now he added ball soup to them on his own initiative.
It's a... Idiot...
Luo Ruxue thought blankly, and the Mo Butterfly on the side lowered her head, her face flushed, as if she was trying to do nothing with this man named Qiu Nan.
"Come on, come on, try it while it's hot, it's delicious. ”
"Come on, add a handful of coriander, and this ancient moon noodles, it's quite delicious. ”
The shopkeeper brought the meatball soup to the front, Qiu Nan took it first, put it in front of the three of them personally, and then picked up the bowl with coriander and added coriander to each bowl, and picked up the bottle of Gu Yue noodles, ready to add it to the bowl.
Luo Ruxue was completely shocked, her mouth open, her eyes widened, and she didn't know what to do at all.
Mo Butterfly still buried her face in the bowl, and she couldn't see her expression anymore, only a pair of small hands grasping the edge of the bowl, trembling slightly.
As for the falling kite who was on his shoulder, his face was already pale, and the small purple sword in his ear trembled, as if he was about to rush up and kill this Qiu Nan in the next moment.
"Come on, come on, put it all away, taste it, it's absolutely delicious, I guarantee that you want to have another bowl after eating a bowl!"
"Hey, shopkeeper, add three more bowls of meatball soup to this table, and three more drawers of meat buns, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat enough just by drinking meatball soup." ”
Qiu Nan was enthusiastic, and the atmosphere of the entire shop became extremely awkward.
Luo Zheng had endured it to the extreme, and the silver teeth clenched, squeezing out a voice from between the teeth and saying:
"Feud... South... You... Live... Greasy... Finish... No... Cheng..."
