Chapter 386: Resolving Grudges
When Mingqin woke up, the night was already dark.
I turned over, and I felt a feeling of hunger, and when I thought about it, I really hadn't eaten a few bites of food all day.
I got up a little late in the morning, and the Furong Garden was full of visitors, and Wu Ying didn't care about him. At noon, I ate a few bites at You's house and left in a hurry. As soon as I slept at this hour, Sister You ** didn't look like a good cook.
A cultivator's need for food is far greater than that of ordinary people, and the more skillful the spell, the more physical energy it takes. Even the average martial artist eats an extraordinary amount of food.
However, the cultivators have different martial artists, that is, they are more particular about the choice of ingredients. There are many things that mortals usually eat that they can't digest. The gods and ghosts drink the food directly, and the cultivators are in between, and they don't get tired of eating and drinking. Therefore, the immortal family has the profession of spiritual plant, which specializes in the preparation of nutrients in food.
Although Ming Qin only has a divine soul incarnation, he also needs food. For example, immortals are the great realm of divine soul cultivation, and they have never been fed by food. On the contrary, the pure physical body does not have the ability to absorb and digest, and it is obvious that the thing no longer needs to eat after death.
Of course, there is a certain difference between being distracted and dying, usually like being born with a serious illness, lingering on the mattress, and only a little soup porridge is needed to hang a breath.
Mingqin was lying in bed hungry and uncomfortable, and he didn't know how long it would take before dawn. I didn't feel sleepy for a while, so I pushed off the quilt and put on my shoes and went out of the room to find food.
The room was quiet, it was pitch black, and Ming Qinmu could see at night, but he didn't feel too much inconvenience. Walking slowly down the wooden ladder, I remembered that there was a tall freezer in the corner, and there should be a lot of food in it.
Suddenly, there was a slight squeak behind him, and a figure flashed out of the room, snapping and backhanding the door.
Ming Qinfang was about to reach out and pull the door of the freezer, and he couldn't help but look back when he heard the sound. There was a crackling sound, and the lights on the wall lit up. Then came a porphyry chuckle.
Although the lamp is not as bright as the glass lamp, because it is very close to the freezer, the molten light is enough for him to hide.
You ** walked out of the gloom that was not as bright as the light. She changed into a loose dressing gown, her jet-black hair was scattered, and she was slightly curled by the frequent bindings, washing off the light makeup on her face. But it has never detracted from the color, and it is full of a lazy taste, which is a little more natural charming.
"Good boy, I have good intentions to take you in, and it's okay if you don't appreciate the picture. Why do you still come out in the middle of the night to steal things?"
You ** walked up to him with his arms crossed, and scolded coldly with a pretty face.
Mingqin was stunned for a moment, even though he was just looking for something to eat, taking it without telling him was indeed no different from stealing. Scratching his head, he said abruptly, "I'm sorry, Sister You." I woke up a little hungry and saw that you were both asleep and couldn't bother, so I wanted to find something to eat for myself. The eldest sister taught me a lesson, but fortunately I didn't get anything, and I stopped the precipice. It's not too late. In this way, Ling Mei will trouble you to tell her, I will go first. β
You ** was slightly stunned, and hurriedly turned sideways to stop, "Don't go." β
Ming Qin sneered: "Why, you still want to find someone to arrest me, as the saying goes, 'catch people and take stolen goods'." You're in a hurry if you want to frame me. β
You ** sighed, and said with a smile: "I'm just a joke, how can you think of me so badly." Besides. Where can you go in the middle of the night, don't you make me and Zhuzhu anxious?"
The two had only one side of each other before, and they couldn't talk about any friendship, and this time they met with mutual suspicion. It's not okay to talk about it in a shallow way. Verbal ridicule is more likely to breed misunderstandings.
Seeing that You ** was sincere and did not seem to be fake, Ming Qin took two steps back and said lightly: "Then I'll go back to sleep." β
"Are you angry?" You ** reluctantly blocked the way, and said quietly: "Then when you lied to me in the Phoenix Pavilion, why didn't you consider my feelings." β
Ming Qin muttered: "The Phoenix Pavilion's move is indeed my fault first. But I'm just trying to find out the details of the immortals. Of course, I can't escape the blame for making you innocent. If Madame needs any compensation, I can do my best. β
You ** snorted coldly: "Speaking of your actions, I should have poked your eyes, sewed your mouth, and broken your hands and feet to relieve the hatred in my heart." β
Ming Qin was secretly speechless, and said with a wry smile: "Although I have another purpose, I don't have any deceptive words when I ask myself. Since you have a grudge in your heart, it's better for us to see each other less. β
You ** changed his words and said indifferently: "I think you are truly repentant." Young people can't be killed with a stick if they make a mistake. But 'capital sins are forgiven, but living sins are unforgivable.' I want you to be my guard for three years, are you convinced?"
Ming Qin thought for a while and said, "Do you get paid?"
"Of course. You ** smiled lightly: "I'll give you a monthly salary of eight thousand, and if you do a good job, there will be another reward, if you don't do well, then don't blame me for deducting my salary." β
Ming Qin was quite happy at first, after all, the country of Da Mo was overcrowded, he had no education, no family background, and it was not so easy to find a job. Since the beginning of his reign, he has been in a fixed place, and he has not lived a few days of peace. The order of the immortal world is strict, and even cultivators have to rely on the rich merchants and eunuchs to be driven by them. Otherwise, it will be difficult to have a foothold.
This guard is quite suitable for him, but the danger factor is higher, but You **, as an immortal official of the Domain, should not be so eye-catching.
And the salary is probably a low level in this industry, but when he heard the deduction behind, Ming Qin instantly felt that it was not so easy to get this money in his hands.
"Aren't the guards only responsible for your personal safety? I don't know what the difference between good and bad is?"
The fairy world pays attention to contracts and contracts, and the details need to be clearly marked to avoid unnecessary disputes. Mingqin felt the need to ask.
You ** smiled: "You have to know." I used to hire only one senmu to help me clean up the house and look after the house. Her salary is only three thousand. In other words, I think you can quit her, in addition to these two things, you can also be a chauffeur. So you have to be diligent. But you know the Immortal Law, these things should be easy for you. β
"I'm not that idle. You'd better be smart. Ming Qin was slightly disappointed, and said in his heart: You are very calculating, you are simply a black-hearted profiteer.
You ** pursed his lips and smiled, but he was not angry. "Aren't you hungry?" Actually, I left something for you for dinner, and when I saw that you slept well, I didn't wake you up. You sit and wait for a while, and I'll warm it up for you. β
After speaking, he didn't wait for Mingqin to agree, and hurried to the kitchen to get busy. After the tea, he greeted with a bowl of steaming rice porridge, "Come and drink it." I'll bring you bread. β
"Thank you. β
Especially** is so gracious. Ming Qin stopped being hypocritical, sat down on the chair, moved over the porridge bowl and took a sip. After a while, she brought out another jade plate, on which were stacked with two yellow and clear scallion pancakes.
Mingqin was also hungry. Pick one up and gobble it up. You ** sat aside with a smile and watched with his chin propped up.
"Is it delicious?"
Ming Qin hummed lightly, turned his head and bumped into You **'s eyes flowing, Ruo looked at him thoughtfully, and couldn't help but blush. Confused, "What's wrong?"
You ** shook his head with a smile, and pondered: "I remember that you didn't go to the Phoenix Pavilion to inquire about Song Liufang and Mrs. Shenzhi?
"It's a coincidence. β
Ming Qin groaned slightly, and said the section of meeting Gan Jie He, and recognizing each other painfully through the dim sum seal and the finger bite.
You ** sighed softly: "If I could have a child back then, maybe I would be as old as you." β
Ming Qin was stunned for a moment, and said with a sneer: "Madam, you are not too old, and the child will have it sooner or later." β
You ** was slightly silent, got up and walked to the side of the wine cabinet, picked out a bottle of foreign wine, and took two goblets. Luo Luo said generously: "Qinzhi, drink two glasses with me." β
Mingqin remembered that You ** was quite good at drinking, and hesitated: "I don't know how to drink." β
"Really?"
You ** opened the bottle cap, poured it into the cup, and squinted at him: "I won't drink well, I can have a lot less useless entertainment." However, if you are an official in the fairy world, if the wine does not stick to your lips, it will affect your promotion. Come, a toast to us to resolve our grudges. β
Mingqin smiled and picked up the wine glass, and You ** drank it all early. He coughed lightly twice, and then poured it again.
You ** drank wine, didn't say much, one cup after another. It looks quite pleasant.
Ming Qin reminded: "Sister You, it's not good for your body to drink like this. β
"Then you drink with me. β
You ** stared at him drunken and pushed the wine bottle over.
Ming Qin yawned and stood up, waved his hand and said, "I'm going to rest, you can go to bed early." β
The wine culture of Zhongxia can be said to have a long history, and it is said that Yidi makes wine. After Dayu drank it, he sighed and said, "There will be people who will die because of drinking in the future." As early as in Shangshu, there was a wine edict that ordered the prohibition of alcohol.
Although drinking alcohol cannot be said to be completely unbeneficial, it is indeed a kind of waste in ancient times when the production conditions were poor, so wine was also sold by the government.
Xin Jiaxuan's words for quitting alcohol are, 'There is no beauty or evil in things, and if you pass it, it will be a disaster'. The nature of wine is very easy to overdose.
What's more, it is often indispensable on the occasion of banquets and gatherings, thinking that it can set off the atmosphere. If you think about it, it's not true.
Wine is a thing, in fact, it is a hot thing, wine is not intoxicating, everyone is drunk, and it is ugly to look at the drunken people with a sober eye. What kind of guests and hosts are happy? Half-smoked, it can be regarded as a cautious person.
............
Ming Qin didn't take a few steps, suddenly heard a plop behind him, and looked back to see that there was no trace of You ** in the seat. When she got closer, she somehow slipped under the table and couldn't get up for a long time.
"Are you alright? β
Mingqin was secretly amused, and hurriedly stepped forward to drag her out and help her to sit on the chair.
You ** glanced at him drunkenly, hugged his waist and arched into his arms, and secretly wept with sobs.
"Where did you fall? I see if you were hurt?" Mingqin thought she had fallen to the ground and touched it, and hesitated to pat Xiang on the shoulder and whisper comfort.
You ** was silent for a moment, and said cowardly: "Don't look at it, knock me on the waist." β
Ming Qin sighed, "Then I'll help you back to your room." β
"You haven't agreed to what you just said?"
Ming Qin was embarrassed: "Then I really can't do it, if you have any trouble in the future, as a friend, I will try my best to help." β
When You ** learned that he was the son of Mrs. Theosophical, he understood that this condition could not be negotiated. calmed down his depressed mood, sat up straight, brushed his hair and said, "You go to sleep, I'm fine." β
Mingqin breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and was about to leave.
The spirit rhino pendant on the table suddenly buzzed and resounded, You ** picked it up and looked at it, couldn't help frowning slightly, and connected the note and said, "Hey, spring breeze?
"Sister-in-law, save meβ" A frightened scream came from the Lingxi Pei, followed by a series of thumping sounds.
"What's wrong with you, where are you?"
You **'s face changed greatly, and the voice of the spirit rune and Fang Cai were all from the little uncle Wei Chunfeng, although this person was a famous flashy son in Yujing, but he had always been respectful to her, and he was one of the few people in the Wei family who could speak. If there is an emergency, we cannot sit idly by.
"You are the sister-in-law surnamed Wei. Lingxi Pei sounded a cold voice, "The surname Wei didn't repay the loan, and the acquaintance prepared 30 million, and rushed to Xishan in a quarter of an hour." Otherwise, just wait for his body to be collected. β
"Who are you? I advise you not to act rashly, if you hurt Wei Chunfeng, the Wei family will not let you go. β
You ** covered his numb forehead, regretting that he shouldn't have drunk so much at night.
"Haha......" The man laughed wildly and said in a loud voice: "Lao Tzu has a rotten life, no matter how it is earned." Without further ado, you only have ten minutes now. β
"Wait. You ** said anxiously: "I don't have that much money on hand." You'll have to wait at least until dawn for the money bank to open. β
"Fart. The Wei family has a lot of money, and there are no hundreds of millions of immortal banknotes in the secret room, which one is willing to believe it. The man smiled and said, "Stinky girl, don't play tricks, if you want Wei Chunfeng to live, just take the money out obediently." Otherwise, I'll take off one of his arms and send it to you first. β
"Ten minutes, I really can't make it. β
"You don't have ten minutes left. The man said as he suddenly cut off the note.
You ** was shocked into a cold sweat, and said in a six-god voice: "My uncle has been kidnapped, what should I do?"
"Sister Hui, don't worry. Do you have any money at home?"
Ming Qin scolded secretly in his heart, he is really a crow's mouth, and as soon as he agreed, You ** will be in trouble, which is more clever than fortune telling.
"He wants 30 million, where do I have so much money. β
Ming Qin muttered: "You go find a tight bag, hold a bag of books, and fool it for a while." β
"Good. You ** said: "Do you know how to drive? I drank a little wine, my head is a little cloudy, and I may not be able to drive." β
"No problem. β
Although Ming Qin said that he had never driven a fairy chariot much, he had driven a Thunderbolt chariot on Hanging Island, and the comparison between the two was nothing but a big deal. (To be continued.) )
