Lin Heng wiped his mouth, then crossed his knees, his eyes closed, and silently absorbed the spiritual substance in the spirit bones. Lin Heng could feel that there were more light streaks on his bones.

The originally dark white bones had more points of light, and the spiritual power in the qi veins was also refined a lot. Lin Heng opened his eyes and took a breath of aura.

At this time, Hu Ji Xiao showed a confident expression, "How is it? This spirit bone is good, right?"

"It's okay, it's just that the taste is a little worse. Lin Heng said calmly.

Hearing this, Hu Ji Xiao glanced at him, this is the most delicious food in the whole county, not only is it beneficial to cultivation, but it can also enjoy the blessings of the mouth. Otherwise, how could the Spirit Bone Pavilion spread to the entire Southern Plains Realm.

"These spirit bones are very well handled, but the heat and duration of cooking are not perfect, and the seasoning is not appropriate..."

Lin Heng said one by one that the taste of the spirit bones was insufficient, which was very smooth and fluent, which was convincing.

Hu Jixiao on the side was dumbfounded, "I said Lin Heng, how do you know so well? Could it be that you are a chef?"

Lin Heng showed a proud expression, "My father used to be a famous cook, and I still know a little about ingredients as an apprentice. ”

"Alas, Ling Zun will be pleased to see that you are so gifted in the Heavenly Spirit. But it's a pity, if I had found out earlier, I wouldn't have let you have the disaster of Nannuma's destruction. After all, cooks are very scarce in the Yin and Yang Continent. ”

Hu Jixiao suddenly sighed, his face annoyed.

When Lin Heng heard this, he suddenly sneered, "Master, when did I tell you that my father passed away." ”

At the same time, Lin Heng suddenly looked sad, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes, "He is no longer in Nanmarsh, he and my mother went to a place I didn't know, I have been looking for them and want to reunite with them, this is also my dream for more than ten years." ”

Hu Jixiao is also strange and uncomfortable to hear. He is a member of the Demon Clan, and his ancestor left the Western Barbarian Realm a long time ago and came to the Kunlun Mountains to take root. Now he is also alone, and there is only Peng Feiyang, a friend of the demon clan.

He also thought about returning to the Western Barbarian Realm, to find his hometown, to return to the clan. But he was helpless, he had too many worries in the Southern Plains Realm, and he couldn't let go.

"Lin Heng, in the future, the City Lord's Mansion will be your new home, and when you don't find your family, Shizun will be your new family. "There is light in the corners of Hu Jixiao's eyes. He looked kind and patted Lin Heng's shoulders with a smile.

He couldn't imagine that a sixteen-year-old child had gone through so many changes, and was still so optimistic and strong to live.

Lin Heng had mixed feelings and thoughts at this time. He nodded heavily at Hu Ji Xiao with a grateful face, "Thank you, Master, for taking you in!"

"There is nothing that you can't take in, your six senior brothers and sisters have similar experiences to you, I believe that when you arrive at the City Lord's Mansion, they will like you, a little junior brother. ”

"Well, don't think about sad things anymore, living in the moment is the most important thing. Now that I've eaten my fill, it's time to go back to the City Lord's Mansion. I haven't been back for a long time, and I miss my bed a little. ”

Hu Jixiao stretched his waist and was about to go to open the door.

At this moment, the door opened by itself, and it was the four maids just now.

"Lord of the city, my master hopes to meet the little boy beside you, and I hope you can be accommodating. ”

One of them, a maid in a yellow dress, with a gentle voice, delicate makeup, and a sweet smile, made it difficult to refuse all her words.

But Hu Jixiao bluntly refused, "I am the lord of a city, why should I obey the arrangement of your master? Even if your proprietress is a nobleman of the imperial city, Lao Tzu has not yet reached the point of compromise. ”

Hu Jixiao's words were fierce and majestic. He will not tolerate all excessive demands, and he will not be afraid of pressure.

The yellow skirt did not change the woman's face, and said indifferently, "Don't refuse my master's request first, my master will not hurt that little boy, I just want to talk to him, and if you agree, my master is willing to agree to your previous request!"

Hu Jixiao listened to the words and did not reply in a hurry. He was thinking, thinking about the stakes.

Lin Heng saw that Hu Jixiao did not speak for a long time, and he was a little worried in his heart. He wouldn't really want to sell himself, no way! A character like him would definitely not be a person who seeks perfection.

At this time, Hu Ji Xiao was awe-inspiring, and his face was slightly arrogant. Lin Heng knew that he would definitely not sell himself, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Hu Ji Xiao spoke, "My little boy is the little apprentice of the city lord, if you want to talk to him, you have to double!"

When Lin Heng heard this, he looked at him dumbfounded, "Master, you... You..."

"Good apprentice, there is a master, her master doesn't dare to treat you like this. And the conditions she gave made the master excited, so you will help the teacher first, and send you a big opportunity for the teacher another day as compensation. ”

Hu Ji Xiao was like coaxing a child, he was a sweet word to Lin Heng, and there were many benefits, and it was difficult for Lin Heng to refuse.

However, what about the family who said that it was good, he sold the apprentice if he gave some benefits, and he was an unreliable master, and he would pit the apprentice. Lin Heng was speechless, so he had to be aggrieved on the side.

At this time, the woman in the yellow dress covered her mouth and smiled, "No problem, Lord City, then this little boy..."

"Just send him back to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow morning, and don't forget to send that thing with you, remember that it's double! And if my little apprentice can't return safely, I'll unload your Spirit Bone Pavilion and even the Imperial City's as well, and I'll do what I say!"

Hearing this, the maid in the yellow dress smiled and said, "Your Excellency the city lord, don't worry, this little boy will be safe and sound." I'll send it back in person tomorrow morning, and of course double it. ”

After the words fell, the maid in the yellow dress looked at Lin Heng and smiled gently, "Little boy, please come here." ”

Hearing this, Lin Heng walked over helplessly, and when he left, he didn't forget to glare at Hu Ji Xiao, his eyes were full of hatred, so that Hu Ji Xiao could only smile awkwardly in place.

Lin Heng was taken by them to the top floor of the Spirit Bone Pavilion, not the third layer. It's the fourth layer, and there should be a way to hide the fourth layer.

The fourth floor is like a dwelling. There are five rooms, four on two sides, which are written on spring, summer, autumn and winter. And in a room in the middle, the word Ouyang was written.

They led Lin Heng into the room in the center. The rooms are large enough to accommodate hundreds of people. The décor of the room is simple and elegant, there is nothing bright about it. On the door is a table, on the left side are rows of bookshelves, and on the right side is what looks like a dwelling, like a woman's boudoir.

It seems that this is the hostess's accommodation.

"Little boy, my master has been waiting for a long time. The waiter in the yellow dress smiled politely at Lin Heng.

Hearing this, Lin Heng looked puzzled, "How long have you been waiting, but there is no one here." Could it be that your master is a ghost?"

When the words fell, Lin Heng had a bad premonition.

"Little boy, you're joking, but my master is indeed here, but you haven't seen it yet. The maid in the yellow dress smiled.

Lin Heng looked around, and indeed didn't find any figures, could it be that it was a hidden formation again?

At this moment, a voice came from somewhere in the room, "Qiu Shu, don't embarrass Lin Gongzi!"
