Chapter 17 A Big Bowl of Tea for a Penny [Ask for Subscription]
Day 2.
Outside Fengming City, in a simple tea shed on the official road, Lin Xiuran was generously leading Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu, drinking a large bowl of tea for a penny.
The large bowls, the yellow and clear rough tea with the occasional floating tea foam, are both abundant and cheap, and are the favorite of the porters and pawns of the past.
The weather gradually warmed up, the sun baked the official road hotter and hotter, and the porters and pawns carrying the goods did not walk for half an hour, and they sweated profusely, and this tea shed became the best place for them to rest.
Being able to drink a big bowl of tea in the shady tea shed in the hot world is a great pleasure for their throats that are already so hot that they are almost smoking.
At this moment, it is the middle of the day, the hottest time of the day, and the most lively time in the tea shed.
The crowd drank tea, quenched their thirst, tore out their throats and shouted, speaking loudly as if they were quarrelling, and the people were full of noise and bustle.
While feeling this atmosphere, Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu held the big tea bowl with their white and tender little hands, brought it to their mouths, and took small sips and tasted it.
This big bowl of tea, which is a penny and a bowl, was drunk by them out of the realm of fifty taels and one pot.
Lin Xiuran saw that they paid so much attention to their manners, and they didn't lose his face as a father-in-law, and just wanted to praise them a few words.
But before he could open his mouth, Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu smiled slyly at the same time, glanced at each other, and began to gulp the tea in the bowl, as if they were competing.
"Ahh
Luo Xin'er took the lead in drinking the tea in the tea bowl, put the tea bowl down happily, and gently wiped the corners of her mouth with her sleeve, with a proud face.
Hua Xie was slow for a moment, lost the game, and his face was full of depression.
Lin Xiuran looked at their childish appearance, and was also a little depressed in his heart, last night he praised them for their maturity and progress.
"Are you stupid?" Lin Xiuran said speechlessly.
"Hmph, Xianggong, you still dare to say that me, last night you also said that we have matured and progressed, we have done well in the hundred-person ghost formation, and we are not chaotic in the face of danger, and we want to reward us for drinking some good ones, but I didn't expect it to be a big bowl of tea for this penny, do you think your conscience will hurt?"
Luo Xin'er heard Lin Xiuran count herself, and complained with a sad and angry face that Lin Xiuran was stingy and slammed the door.
"That's right, Sister Luo is right!"
Hua Xie Yu was on the side to help.
Lin Xiuran naturally felt very wronged, and the good ones he drank in his mouth were not the big bowl of tea for this penny and a bowl, but the spiritual spring of the Demon Wind Valley.
The aura of the mortal world is thin, and this demon wind valley can produce three monsters in one breath: the ghost king, the tiger king and the snake king, but I am afraid that the spiritual spring is indispensable.
"You, you will be kind enough to be the liver and lungs of a donkey. ”
Lin Xiuran didn't get angry with them, picked up the tea bowl in front of him, and began to drink the tea.
"Xianggong, why don't we leave without revealing our identities? In this way, it always feels weird, and it is not fun at all. ”
Luo Xin'er was a little dissatisfied with the fact that she did not win the sense of honor she deserved in her first battle.
What's the matter with them saying goodbye like this?
At the very least, she should report her names as "Luoying Sword" and Sister Hua's "Interpretation Sword" again.
She urged her blood and qi last night, but her back was sore and her legs were weak all night, this one is not famous, and the other is not ten thousand, Luo Xin'er always feels that she has lost.
"This is naturally for the good of the Xu family!"
Lin Xiuran didn't pay attention to Luo Xin'er's blame, but said lightly.
"Why?"
Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu were a little puzzled, and they didn't know what the relationship was between not revealing their identities and doing good for the Xu family.
Lin Xiuran glanced at them and said, "If we don't reveal our identities, they won't know that they still have such a powerful ancestor as Yunyang Zhenren living in the world, so they will act according to the rules of mortals, and at the same time, they will work harder." This is naturally good for them. ”
On the contrary, if they know that they have a bullish ancestor and behave in a way that is arrogant, they will immediately become different, not only will they be arrogant, but at the same time, they will not want to make progress, which is a great bad thing for them. Since they are the descendants of Yunyang Zhenren, I can't harm them. Do you understand what I say?"
"Oh!"
Luo Xin'er understood Lin Xiuran's truth, but she was still unhappy because her name of "Luoying Sword" could not be spread all over the world.
Hua Jieyu saw her like this, but just laughed at her.
......
And Xu Lingyan, who was far away in Fengming City, just woke up from his coma at this moment.
Before he fell into a coma, he and Luo Qinghou were discussing the abduction of Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu, the king of the mountain, Lin Xiuran.
Early this morning, the next person came to report that the white fat man Lin Xiuran was gone, and Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu were also gone, and it was suspected that Lin Xiuran, the king of the mountain, coveted their beauty and kidnapped them.
The person was not seen in his Xu Mansion, and Xu Lingyan felt that he couldn't watch the two girls being pushed into the fire pit, so he invited Luo Qinghou to discuss the matter with him.
But as soon as the matter was halfway through the discussion, Xu Lingyan suddenly fainted.
In a coma, he met an old man of his age.
That was Yunyang Zhenren, he saw that the matter was over, so he gave Xu Lingyan a dream through his own blood connection with his descendants.
In the dream, Xu Lingyan looked at his old ancestor in disbelief, but the old man's appearance was indeed exactly the same as the one hanging in the ancestral hall.
That portrait was painted by a painter hundreds of years ago after the head of the Xu family also saw the style of his ancestors through a dream.
After so many years, Xu Lingyan only thought that the old ancestor of his family had ended his life and passed away, but he didn't expect that the old ancestor of his family was still alive and still practicing in the immortal court.
The ancestor dreamed and only said two things.
One is that he didn't want to show up, for fear that his descendants would be arrogant and unenterprising because they knew about his existence, and warned him to strictly restrain his children and grandchildren and not to shame him.
And the second thing is that he has invited a junior of the Immortal Court with strong magic skills to solve the ghost incident of the Xu family, and the characteristics of that person are that he is a young son, with two beautiful girls, so that he can be well received.
After saying these things, Yunyang Zhenren disappeared, and Xu Lingyan also woke up.
"Mr. Xu, how are you? Did you run out of internal strength last night, and now your body is in a loss, why don't you go back to the room to rest first, and leave the affairs of the two girls to the next place." ”
Luo Qinghou saw Xu Lingyan wake up, and hurriedly went to the side to support him.
Xu Lingyan waved his hand, declined Luo Qinghou's kindness, and silently said, "No need, the old man's body is very tough, it's okay, the coma just now was only because the ancestors came to dream, so he fell asleep." ”
"Dream?"
Luo Qinghou's mouth opened wide, a little incredulous.
"Yes, the ancestor of my Xu family is still alive, the last time I went into the ancestral hall to pray and ask for help from the ancestors, it was just a dead horse to be a live horse doctor, I never thought that there was really an ancestor appearing. The old ancestor said that he sent an immortal who looked like a young man to subdue the evil spirit, and there were two girls beside the son. Xu Lingyan said.
"Mr. Xu, what do you mean ......?"
Luo Qinghou immediately understood what Xu Lingyan meant.
"That's right, the mountain king Lin Xiuran who suddenly appeared is the immortal court immortal sent by the old ancestor, and the two women who were kidnapped by him were actually just the girls he brought with him, he just made a little joke with us. ”
"However, that Lin Xiuran looks like a middle-aged white fat man, and the old ancestor said that he looks like a young son, how can this be explained?"
"I'm afraid, that's not the real face, he is only helping each other in secret, and he deliberately doesn't show up. ”
Xu Lingyan said, clapped his palms, sighed, and said, "I said, why did the hundred-person ghost formation subdue the ghosts so smoothly this time, it turned out that he was helping each other in secret." ”
"That's the case?"
"That's true, Qinghou, do you know that the last time my Xu family ancestor used a hundred people to hunt ghosts with a ghost array, what were the casualties?"
"How much?"
"Half of the innate masters were killed or injured because of this!"
"Shhhh
Luo Qinghou knew the inside story and couldn't help but gasp.
With half of the casualties, wouldn't fifty of the 100 be killed or wounded?
That's a staggering number.
"Alas, I was worried that those two girls were taken captive by the strongman, but now I find out that it's just that we are self-inflicted, not only do we not need to save them, but they also saved our lives last night!"
In Luo Qinghou's eyes, the son Lin Xiuran is an immortal, and the two girls are naturally also powerful people.
As for the clumsy martial arts of the two women in the living room, he had only heard it mentioned and had not seen it with his own eyes, but when he thought about it, it was just that they were deliberately clumsy.
So, not long after, the names of Luo Xin'er's "Luoying Sword" and Hua Jieyu's "Jieyu Sword" unknowingly spread in the territory of the Song Kingdom and the Chen Kingdom.
It is rumored that the two of them not only have a beautiful country, flowers and moon appearance, but also have strength, and they are also at the level of a top grandmaster.
In the martial arts, they are all worshipped as new goddesses.
Of course, all this, Luo Xin'er and Hua Jieyu, don't know.
They were still unhappy and accompanied Lin Xiuran to drink a big bowl of tea for a penny.
