At this time, two more people came in front of the teahouse. One is a middle-aged scholar in a cyan robe, with a warm complexion, a restrained breath, and an extraordinary appearance. The other person is a woman in her prime, her eyebrows are like a crescent moon, her eyes are like autumn water, and her expression is quiet and indifferent! However, this woman's moon-white dress has a faint brilliance flashing, and it is quite strange in its elegance!
Seeing this, Lin Yi was slightly stunned. How could there be two monks in this small wilderness city? Not only that, but these are also two masters of the middle stage of the Yuan Infant. Especially the young woman, who was slightly higher than her companion's cultivation.
And at this moment, the two of them went straight to the teahouse!
Lin Yi shook his head secretly, and had no choice but to put down the purple gold gourd in his hand, and instead picked up the tea bowl to cover his face. Although he deliberately avoided it, he knew that it was too late, so he had to wait and see. Besides, the two strange monks weren't necessarily coming for themselves......
“...... There are no free tables in the shop, can the two distinguished guests squeeze together...... "The man saw that the woman looked like a fairy, and he was so shocked that he didn't dare to raise his head, and after he finished what he was about to say, his face was already red, and his heart was pounding. And many tea customers in the teahouse looked up one after another, casting envious glances one by one.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, and said to the woman, "Senior sister, this place is noisy and crowded, you and I might as well find another place......
The woman smiled disapprovingly: "Master said that what I lack is this worldly knowledge, so why bother more......
The guy hurriedly said: "Two distinguished guests, please ...... here"
The woman's eyes swept over the teahouse, and she whispered: "No need! I didn't think there were any other people here, so I went over by myself......
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Senior sister, that's just a Taoist in the mortal world......"
The woman's eyes had fallen on one person, and she said curiously: "And the hairpin and gourd are not extraordinary......"
......
Lin Yi was at the square wooden table, and there were five people sitting around. In addition to him and the father and son, there is another pair of men and women with good demeanor.
The old man was still worried, and he didn't care about the two more tea customers. The young man caught a glimpse of the woman's beautiful face, and his face suddenly turned pale and looked cramped and uneasy. Lin Yi, on the other hand, bowed his head to the comer, and then looked out the window with a tea bowl, leisurely and pleasantly on the street scene.
In the midst of this noisy teahouse, the woman's eyes flashed with surprise, and she kept looking around. After the man brought the tea, the man was indifferent to it, but the woman picked up the crude tea bowl and tasted it, frowning slightly.
"This ......" put down the tea bowl, and the woman wanted to talk to Lin Yi beside her. The other party just stared at the scenery on the street and didn't look back, she smiled disapprovingly, turned to look at the father and son and asked, "Why are you the only two of you looking anxious, could it be that you have encountered some trouble?"
The middle-aged man seemed to be familiar with the woman's temperament, so he didn't say much to accompany him. It's just that he paid attention to the young Taoist opposite from time to time, and shook his head lightly with self-deprecation. Such a young man, even if he hides something, will not have amazing cultivation!
"Dare to let this girl know that my father and son don't know this Taoist......" Seeing that the woman looked like a celestial, but her words were easy-going, the old man couldn't help but feel good and said: "...... The old man's worries are all for the sake of the dog!"
"Let's talk about it......" The woman's words were euphemistic and soft, making people unbearable to refuse. The young man was already embarrassed, and only lowered his head to the table. The old man sighed and said, "There is a girl who asks about it, and the old man says it!"
The woman smiled and nodded, and the old man took a sip of tea, and then said: "My son learned that agarwood is profitable, so he raised funds to explore the sea. Seeing that people were selling charcoal and easy to sell, this son burned agarwood into charcoal and sold it all, making little profit and greatly discounting the capital, so that there was a matter of forcing debts to come to the door! As a last resort, he had to go out to hide from debts......
Hearing the old man's remarks, the woman had not yet spoken, and the middle-aged man had already laughed and said: "Hehe! As the saying goes, one or two agarwood and one or two gold......!
The woman also smiled lightly, and said kindly to the young man: "Yes! It is difficult to sell expensively, so you just have to wait patiently for the buyer, and you will make a fortune! And you only saw that charcoal was easy to buy and sell, so you burned the precious agarwood into charcoal, which is really a tyrannical thing......!
The young man was about to shrink under the table, and he felt that his face was hot and dry. In other words, the ridicule of others can still be ignored, and it is really embarrassing to be lectured by such a beautiful woman. He was flustered for a while, but he actually got up and shouted, "Oh! Thank you for your teachings! It is important to hurry, and you will be unaccompanied...... before the words fell, the man dragged his bags and left his seat.
"The dog is rude! Don't blame ......" The old man was shocked, apologized, and hurriedly said goodbye and chased out of the teahouse, leaving the man and woman speechless.
After a while, the woman was still soft-hearted and said, "Mingjian, it's good for you to help him......"
The man named Mingjian smiled bitterly, but he still got out of the teahouse, and after a short time caught up with the father and son. Not waiting for the other to be surprised, he dropped a piece of gold and turned back.
Lin Yi still looked out the window alone, holding the tea bowl silently. He shook his head secretly at the sight of the scene on the street. Among the monks, there are such kind-hearted people, it is rare!
However, the young man was anxious for success and profit, but he did not repent, abandoned his father and mother and was ruthless and unjust, reckless and ignorant and self-serving, although he was helped by others to solve a temporary difficulty, he would inevitably fall after all!
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man named Mingjian returned to the table, and the woman thanked him: "There is a ...... of labor" The other party shook his head and smiled: "Senior sister has a life, how dare I disobey junior brother!"
The woman's eyes flashed, her smile spread lightly, and she said: "The young son is unscrupulous, but it doesn't hurt to fulfill the idea of licking the calf of the father!"
Hearing this, I realized my sister's intentions. He laughed and said, "Senior brother, I am blind, but I am wrong to blame Senior Sister......
"It's good not to think I'm troublesome, why do you say it's wrong...... This fellow Daoist stays!" The woman was halfway through her words, and suddenly turned to the person who was about to leave.
While the two people at the same table were talking, Lin wanted to leave, but he didn't want anyone to say anything to stay. He hesitated, and sat down again. I wondered, how could I not be blind and treat others with myself! I only saw the young man's immorality and unscrupulousness, but it was not as far-reaching as this woman's vision. Children have a hundred faults that are unforgivable, and the elders should be blameless! Taking care of the feelings of others is also to let a good thought in their hearts not be lost!
However, what did this woman see when she said that she was retaining?
"Meeting is fate! This Taoist friend might as well stay for a while......" Seeing Lin sit still, the woman whispered softly. Suddenly, she looked at the young Taoist in front of her again, and said thoughtfully: "I seem to have seen you......"
Lin Yi's heart jumped, but his expression remained unchanged. Unhurriedly looked at a man and a woman beside him, he smiled faintly, and said: "In the next two lives, didn't the girl recognize the wrong person?"
The words of the two made the man named Mingjian puzzled. Senior sister has been closed all year round, how can she recognize this person in the mountains and wilderness? Yes, this young Taoist priest looks similar to others......
Seeing that Lin Yi's expression was calm and she answered freely, the woman dispersed her thoughts, smiled, and said: "It's been many years, maybe I can't remember ......" As soon as the words changed, she asked curiously: "Are you from the mortal world, or from Lingshan?"
"I come from a mundane Taoist temple, and I want to go around looking for Lingshan. I wonder if this girl has taught me?" Lin Yi asked rhetorically.
The woman and Mingjian exchanged glances, and the other party smiled knowingly and said, "This place is noisy, it's not a place to talk, you might as well move somewhere else......"
......
On a hillside outside the city, a man and a woman walked ahead. These two people are elegant, do not get dusty, and have their own high-level atmosphere. And Lin, who was left behind, walked in a messy way, as if he was tired of walking, so he stopped, panting and complaining: "If you two have something to say, you might as well say it directly, if not, you can only say goodbye ...... below."
"Hehe! You can't have the heart to harm people, and you can't have the heart to guard against people! This kid is young, but he is not reckless!" Ming Jian turned around with a smile and said to the woman: "Senior sister, since you are curious about that spiritual weapon, you might as well take a look at it, why do you need to talk to it......
"No! Walking mundane and acting recklessly, isn't it against the original intention of the experience......" After the woman Zhengse said a word, Tingting paused, slowly turned to Lin Yi and asked: "I can't see that you have cultivation, if you don't deliberately hide it......"
"What?" Lin Yi was a little impatient. The woman did not disagree, but still looked calm, and asked gently: "Since you are not a monk, why do you have a hairpin and a purple gourd made of Jiao teeth? Do you know the origin and use of those two treasures......
Sure enough, it was these two things on his body that caused trouble! It was not difficult for any monk to notice the extraordinaryness of the purple gold gourd and the hairpin, but few people could distinguish the texture of the hairpin at a glance. This woman is not only a strong cultivator, but also quite accomplished in refining weapons. Who is she?
"This is inherited by the family teacher, and it is used for hair ornaments and wine...... Lin Yi replied. Isn't that the usefulness of hairpins and gourds?
The woman's green silk is like a cloud, her face is like a bright moon, and she wears a long skirt that drags the floor, just like a hibiscus out of the water, and has an otherworldly charm. Especially those bright eyes, clear and peaceful!
It's just that Lin Yi's words are about to fall, as if disturbing the spring water in March, and the surrounding scenery suddenly brightens. The woman couldn't help but smile, and chuckled: "That hairpin is clearly from the hand of the Zhuji Female Cultivator, and the refiner of the Purple Gold Gourd is someone else. I don't know how many masters you have?"
"This ......" Lin Yi felt his face hot, and he couldn't help but be careful for a while. It was not easy to meet a monk in this small wilderness city, and it was a big deal to deal with things with a few perfunctory words, but unexpectedly met a master of refining weapons! It seems that this place is not suitable for a long time......
"Don't worry, fellow Daoists! Whether you are concealing your cultivation or really coming from the ordinary, neither of us has any intention of asking, nor does I have any evil intentions! I just want to borrow your purple gold gourd to take a look! If there is any inconvenience, ......" Xu is seeing Lin Yi's uneasy expression, the woman said her intention in time. With a light smile, there was also a bit of inquiry.
"Hehe! Regardless of whether you kid is a Taoist or not, it may not be an opportunity for you right now! You must know, my senior sister is ......" The middle-aged man did not finish speaking, and the woman stopped talking at the suggestion of the woman. He had to hold his hands on his green hair, shake his head and smile......
