Chapter 168: Wilderness Tea Shop
In the dark sky, a black lightning rushed by, and the wind swept through the sky and cleared the hazy clouds. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Barren mountains and wild suburbs, through the vast forest sea, but it is a vast barren hill, loess flying, ten miles of smokeless. I saw a black figure galloping down from the sky and slowly stopped. It was a strange bird, extremely large, with a huge head raised, its lantern-like eyes as bright as the moon in the sky, but flashing a faint green light, which was terrifying, a pair of fleshy wings spread out, and a fierce wind, and sharp claws bent like hooks, fast as a sword, tightly constricted in the soles of the feet.
But on the huge body of the strange bird was sitting quietly a man in white, what a handsome young man, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, delicate like a woman, a pair of peach blossom eyes, deep as a pool, seemingly clear, but full of infinite magic, indifferent, but revealing an attractive charm.
The strange bird turned his head to look at the man in white, but there was a humanized smile in his eyes, and his voice was strange and hoarse: "Master, why are you running away? Yan Fenghuang looks so beautiful and moving, and it is a delicious meal that is automatically delivered to the door, do you eat it for nothing?"
The man in white stretched out his hand, the hand was white and slender, the roots were like jade, the nails were trimmed extremely neatly and smooth, and he quickly twisted the neck of the strange bird: "The unrighteous guy, seeing the master suffer, actually didn't help, why don't you throw you into the dragon ring to exercise?"
The strange bird trembled in fright, and its wings almost fell to the ground: "Great merciful master, if you have something to say, don't let me in, okay? Next time, if I encounter a similar situation, I will definitely remind the master." ”
The man in white snorted coldly: "Unrighteous guy, why did I make such a big ugly?"
The strange bird said aggrievedly: "Master, you can't blame me for this matter!" muttered in a low voice, "Who told you to look so attractive to women, and you are so famous, who does Yan Phoenix recruit if you don't recruit you?"
"What did you say?" the man in white shouted coldly.
The strange bird said cowardly: "Master, why don't you dress up, at least don't dress up too ostentatious?"
The man in white raised his head, raised his eyebrows confidently and said, "No way, who called me too handsome?" Alas, no matter what I dress, women always pounce on me like moths to a fire, what bad luck?"
"Unlucky? Can he say it?" the corners of the strange bird's beak twitched humanely, this master is too narcissistic? It seems that he has been spoiled by a woman, and he is cursed to meet a beauty who is not interested in him and is frustrated, and this divine beast can also look at the appearance of him eating turtles!
The man in white raised his head and snorted coldly: "Old owl, there are some things that you don't know? I think when I was a hairy boy, how many women took me in my eyes? Even the woman I love the most is married to someone else, and the past is really unbearable." I want to open it, the more low-key you are, the less people will take you seriously; the more high-profile you are, the more afraid others will be of you! Hmph, I won't pretend to be low-key, this time I want to go back to Jiangnan to see old friends more, Jiangnan ......" He stared at him with a straight face, and as he spoke, he looked around, his expression froze, and he said angrily, "Dead bird, where did you take me? Is this Jiangnan? Jiangnan is the most beautiful place in the world, not only the mountains and rivers are beautiful, but also many beauties, what is this place? There is not even a tree on the mountain, the ground is full of loess, and what is even more infuriating is that there is not even a bird in Fang Yuan!"
The strange bird looked around in panic, and muttered: "Master, at that time, you were afraid of being entangled by the woman Yan Phoenix, and told me to run away......, and did not show me the way?"
"Stupid! I ......" The white-clothed man was furious, and his body quickly flew down from the strange bird, and before the strange bird came to his senses, with a move of his left hand, a white light flashed, and the strange bird disappeared without a trace.
"Master don't......" The strange bird came back to his senses, seeing that his body was gradually disappearing, his expression was shocked, and he screamed, but it was too late, and the man in white reluctantly entered the dragon ring.
The white-clothed man muttered angrily: "Hmph, damn stupid bird, let's let Grandpa Dragon God train you well, it seems that I still have to find a way out by myself! Oh my God! What kind of place is this? Why is my dignified Sword God so unlucky?"
Shen Yuan was angry and hateful in his heart, since he left Luoyang, no matter where he seemed to be, he was chased and killed by Prince Qian in the capital, and Longcheng met a thousand-year-old banshee spirit concubine, and was killed by his jealous uncle, but fortunately he escaped with the protection of the dragon ring; when he came to Phoenix City, he was entangled by Yan Phoenix; he finally escaped from Phoenix Villa, but he came to this place where birds don't lay eggs! It was really tragic! Am I a disaster star? Whether it is the capital, Dragon City, or Phoenix Villa, everywhere is bloody and bloody! Could it be that Providence has made me come to this place where birds don't lay eggs, and not let me create any more disasters? Am I the savior? Whether it is the capital, the Dragon City, or the Phoenix Villa, there are demonic figures everywhere, and all their conspiracies and tricks have been encountered by themselves, and their bloody methods have been cracked by themselves, maybe God asked me to come here to rescue someone! Whether it is a disaster star or a savior, I am not rare, I am me, I am what I want to save, I can save if I am not willing to save, no one can control me.
Shen Yuan didn't know where he was, just quietly looked around, and then ran quickly in one direction, his figure was like lightning, like a gust of spring breeze, flying away, and in a blink of an eye, he turned over a few mountains, Rao is he was equipped with a stunt, walking like the wind, and gradually felt exhausted, his mouth was dry, the air was filled with the smell of dry dust, it seemed that even the air could not bear it, the boundless barren mountains and mountains were uninhabited, and he looked at it blankly, the loess was still loess, and he didn't see a little green.
Licking his dry lips, Shen Yuan sped up, and in an instant, he stood on the highest loess mountain, overlooking the distance, and his eyes that were originally a little troubled showed a look of surprise. A faint green appeared at the end of the misty wilderness, like an oasis in the desert, and at this moment, Shen Yuan was like a hungry and thirsty walker in the desert, and his heart was ecstatic. He rushed down the hill, his figure speeding up, like a soaring white dragon, jumping and running in the loess in an instant, like a child who saw his favorite toy.
Shen Yuan stepped into the green world, as if he had entered another world. He couldn't help but greedily suck in the fresh air, and the whole person seemed to be washed in the moist and fresh air, looking new. The green, straight trees stood in rows like soldiers, dutifully defending their territory, and it seemed to be a concentration camp for birds, chirping, singing, and singing beautiful music. This group of trees stretched forward, exuding a fresh smell, guiding the way forward to pedestrians, along the extended green forest, Shen Yuan shuttled forward, the trees became denser and denser, and gradually formed a forest.
I don't know how long he walked, a small tea shop came into his eyes, fluttering signs, wooden huts, wooden sheds, seemingly mottled and old, but still standing quietly? There are not many tables and stools in the wooden shed, but they look exceptionally neat, an old man is methodically wiping the tables and stools, his body is clumsy, and although the gray soil clothes are patched, they are extremely neat. A pair of cloudy, confused eyes bowed his head, his thin face was wooden, as if there was some unbearable filth on the table, a pair of wizened hands with green tendons exposed, fingers extremely long, and nails neatly repaired.
Looking at the tea shop in the green forest, although Shen Yuan's heart was full of doubts, his expression was extremely excited. He rushed forward and called softly, "Old man, can you serve a pot of tea?"
The old man slowly raised his head and looked at Shen Yuan quietly, his cloudy eyes showed a look of surprise, and a smile appeared on Mu Ran's face in an instant: "Okay, wait a minute!"
Shen Yuan stood down quietly and looked around, with a smile on his face: "Old man, you are doing business in this place, but I'm afraid that the business is not good! Not to mention that there are few people here who are willing to come?"
The old man hobbled over a pot of tea, and then slowly poured it for him, his face was not frustrated by Shen Yuan's question, but he smiled innocently: "Little Lao'er is alone and unaccompanied, and he likes to be quiet, seeing that many long-distance guest officers can't get to the 'Yellow River Town' and are thirsty, I am thinking of setting up a tea shop here, so that guests from afar can drink tea and rest." ”
Although Shen Yuan was full of doubts in his heart, his eyes looked at the old man quietly, his hand gently picked up the teacup, gently sniffed the steaming tea, and then drank it all, and said with a smile: "Good tea, it seems to have a different aroma?"
The old man's face was still smiling: "It's all wild tea in the mountains, it's not as good as those high-grade fragrant teas, don't dislike it?"
Shen Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "The old man is polite, the best fragrant tea still comes from the wild tea in the mountains, but the picking techniques and roasting methods are different!"
The old man asked suspiciously, "I don't know where the guest officer is from?"
Shen Yuan smiled, gently sipped his tea and asked, "May I ask the old man, where is this place?"
The old man looked at him blankly, puzzled: "The guest officer has come all the way here, don't you know what kind of place this is?" There were many doubts and incomprehensions in his heart, as if this person had fallen from the sky, and he didn't know what the north, south, south, and west were.
Shen Yuan covered up his embarrassment with a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Uh, I'm lost!"
"Lost?" the old man was still puzzled, but he still instructed, "This place is thousands of miles of loess, and it is a miracle that the guest officer can come here?"
Shen Yuan said respectfully: "The kid has this intention, and he still hopes that the old man will give him advice." ”
The old man nodded and said, "In this case, the guest officer will walk along this green channel, and the fast one will take five days, and the slow one will take ten days, and you will be able to reach the 'Yellow River Town'." Then ride a horse or rent a car and leave quickly, this great northwest land has gathered many fierce and vicious martial arts people for some reason recently, and the guest officer is alone, so as not to be provoked by the villains and lead to death. ”
"Great Northwest?" Shen Yuan's eyes were stunned, and he muttered in his heart, "Dead bird, let it fly south, it actually flew to the Great Northwest, how is this good? There are a lot of people in the martial arts gathered here, is it the people of the 'Demon Domain' who are looking around to provoke? No matter what, no one will offend me, I won't offend anyone, go to Jiangnan quickly to find Xiaochun, so as not to delay his illness." ”
Seeing that Shen Yuan was silent for a long time, the old man thought that he was afraid, and said earnestly: "Guest officer, listen to Xiao Lao'er's words, the northwest has been extremely unpeaceful recently, so it's better to leave quickly!"
Shen Yuan picked up the teapot and poured another cup, then drank it all, with a smile in his eyes: "Old man, what has happened in the northwest recently, why don't you come and hear about it?"
The old man was stunned, and his eyes looked around, as if he was worried that the partition wall had ears.
Shen Yuan smiled and said: "Outside this forest is thousands of miles of loess, is my uncle still worried that others will not be able to hear it?"
The old man said with trepidation: "I'm afraid that the guest officer is from the Central Plains, and he doesn't know the rules of the Great Northwest." The most famous in this Great Northwest is the 'Yellow River Valley', they are in charge of the lifeblood of the entire Great Northwest, and even the government gives them three points, Xiao Lao'er, a common man, who dares to speak ill of them?"
Shen Yuan sipped his tea, and kept thinking in his mind: "So those fierce and evil people are heading for the 'Yellow River Valley'? It seems that the 'Yellow River Valley' has offended someone?"
The old man shook his head: "The little old man doesn't dare to say it." ”
Shen Yuan chuckled and said: "Although the old man doesn't dare to say it, he is extremely worried in his heart, it is conceivable that the 'Yellow River Valley' has encountered a strong enemy this time, maybe he is worried about his life, right?"
The old man sighed: "Although the 'Yellow River Valley' covers the sky in the northwest, the lord of the Black Valley is extremely protective of the common people, and in the event of natural and man-made disasters, he not only contributes his efforts, but also provides relief and grain, which is much stronger than the government! If the 'Yellow River Valley' is destroyed, the lives of the common people will be ruined!"
Shen Yuan squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "It seems that Hei Changhe has a good reputation in the Great Northwest, but the tree is a big wind and attracts uninvited guests!"
The old man shook his hand in fright: "The guest officer is quiet, the name of the valley master can't be brought up casually, it will be a big disaster!"
Shen Yuan didn't ask any more questions, just gently sipped his tea, but kept thinking in his heart: "There are not many big people in the Great Northwest who have been put on the table, could it be that they are the enemies of the former Hei Changhe? Now that the 'Yellow River Valley' is in its heyday, who else will dare to do it? However, could it be that the 'Demon Domain' wants to take the opportunity to make trouble and rectify the Great Northwest? Or is it ......?" Shen Yuan's teacup hung in his hand, his expression was a little strange, and he suddenly thought of something? Then he gently put the teacup down and sighed faintly, "It doesn't make sense! Do they also want to take the opportunity to enter the Central Plains?"
The old man looked at the pensive Shen Yuan with a cower, and was very suspicious in his heart, this guest officer came through thousands of miles of loess, but there was no trace of embarrassment on his body, and he was not flustered, and he said that he was lost, this is really a fantasy talk? Could it be that he really fell from the sky, I don't know where this is?
The old man didn't know that his guess was correct, although Shen Yuan did not fall from the sky, but fell from the sky on a strange bird. One is puzzled and full of doubts, and the other is calm and full of doubts.
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the silent forest, from far and near, the dust was flying, and in an instant came to the tea shop.
