Chapter 5 Ten Wonders of the World

Maybe it's because he has been in this world for a long time, and Hou Ping'an's aesthetics have changed unconsciously, and the furnishings in this wine shop don't have the sense of resistance to the furnishings of the Hou Mansion when he first came to this world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

But the wine shop without a stool still made him feel a little helpless.

I really don't understand why the ancients had stools early in the morning, why they just didn't use them, and they had to sit there on their knees and eat.

Even the people of the tribe who were accustomed to the wild in the mountains and forests sat on their knees.

After drinking the fruit drink in his hand, Hou Ping'an got up to leave, and in this short time, he had a general understanding of the display of the wine shop.

Not to mention his original world, even compared to his current home, everything in the wine store seems so crude.

He now needs to go somewhere else to see if the ancients lived in this line of work are all the same simple.

In one morning, Hou Ping'an visited seven shops, including wine shops, inns, and tea houses. Every time he entered the shop, someone would come and talk to the old butler behind him, but no one would come to talk to him, and he didn't care.

When it was close to noon, Hou Ping'an entered a restaurant again. I was about to take a closer look, but I found that the shopkeeper standing behind the counter ran out in a hurry after seeing the two of them. It seems to be more attentive and respectful than the others.

And this reason is to salute him first, and then turn around to talk to the housekeeper behind him, it seems that this should be the family's inheritance.

Sure enough, before they could finish talking, the shopkeeper took the two of them upstairs to a private room.

Facing the window, separated by a screen, it can only accommodate the size of four people kneeling.

As soon as he sat down, a guy served the meal, which was almost the same as what Hou Ping'an ate at home.

After the butler had spoken a few words to the shopkeeper, he left, leaving only their master and servant in the private room, standing and sitting.

"Uncle Chen, sit down and have a few drinks with me. ”

Uncle Chen naturally called the old housekeeper.

Hearing the little master call him, the old butler did not think much about it, and sat down at the bottom of the head. This is not to say that he is rude, but Hou Dahai specially explained it before going out.

Hou Dahai generally doesn't take care of family affairs, and sometimes when the housekeeper needs to ask him for instructions, he basically says that you can do it. But if Hou Dahai clearly expressed his opinion, then this matter is not negotiable.

Just like before going out this morning, Hou Dahai told him very clearly that he was obedient.

Obedient, simple words have a very unsimple meaning.

After all, Hou Ping'an was only five years old, and before going out, the old housekeeper was worried that the little master would just find an excuse to come out to play. But after a morning of contact, coupled with the gossip of some subordinates in the back house of the family, the old housekeeper had a more comprehensive understanding of his little master.

In the past, he thought that some things were exaggerated by his subordinates, but now he feels that those subordinates are still too sincere, so he decided to carry out the master's orders very clearly today. Tell him to sit, and he will never stand.

After the old butler sat down, the man who was waiting at the door brought the dishes and chopsticks. Hou Ping'an also took the opportunity to pour wine into his bowl.

is young, so it can't be wine on the table, then it can only be water, but even if it's water, it makes the old butler's hand holding the bowl heavier than a thousand catties.

In this hierarchical society, even if Hou Ping'an is young, he is also the master. But now the master personally poured him wine, which flattered the old butler, and made him even more curious about the various extraordinary things that the little master had rumored over the past year.

"Tell me about the Star Cave?"

Although the old housekeeper knew that the little master must have something to ask when he asked him to sit down, he didn't expect him to ask about the Tianxing Cave.

It seems that this little master of his own has not only been visiting everywhere, but also paying attention to the conversations of some people in the rivers and lakes.

In fact, Hou Ping'an can't be blamed for this, there are too many people talking about Tianxing Cave in the town, so much so that it has almost become a hot event in society.

This is intolerable for a person who has been a water group for a long time. You don't know about social hot news, how can you chat happily?

"Tianxing Cave is a cave less than ten miles south of the village. The depth of the cave is not known for dozens of miles, and no one has ever walked to the end. There is nothing living in the cave except for bloodthirsty bats. And this bloodthirsty bat is the purpose of these people here. ”

"It is rumored that the blood of bloodthirsty bats can be refined into medicine to have the effect of forging the body. Therefore, those who practice horizontal kung fu are naturally eager for this. I heard that the people of the Central Plains in the north even offered a thousand dollars to ask for this thing. And usually, because the bloodthirsty bats are dormant in the cave, even if they are Jiupin masters, they don't dare to enter easily. But the day of the sting was different. Every year on the night of the sting, the bloodthirsty bats in the cave will go out to court, which is also the best time for people in the rivers and lakes to catch bloodthirsty bats......"

Hearing this, Hou Ping'an felt ridiculous, people were reproducing, and these Jianghu people actually wanted to catch them.

"Then why is it called the Celestial Star Cave?"

"This old slave is not very clear, but I heard the master occasionally mention it, as if there is a master of the Nine Rank King Kong Realm, who broke into the cave by force. Awakens a dormant bloodthirsty bat. The bats hung upside down in the hole, opening their eyes like a sky full of stars. ”

Speaking of this, the old butler seemed to think of something, a little hesitant, a little hesitant.

"Uncle Chen, if you have anything, you don't have to treat me like a five-year-old child. ”

Hearing this, the old butler's facial expression was richer and richer. But in the end, he decided to tell what was on his mind.

"Young master, on this night every year, because of catching bloodthirsty bats, there will be people within a radius of ten miles from the Tianxing Cave. And if the blood of a bloodthirsty bat gets on a person's body, it will trigger nature. So this day is also a day to watch the rolling thunder, one of the top ten wonders of the world. In order to prevent martial arts people from entering and harming the neighbors, martial law will be imposed in the village that night. ”

When the old housekeeper said this, Hou Ping'an's curiosity was even heavier. Although he knew that some substances would spontaneously combust under certain conditions, he had never heard of the fact that the blood of a certain animal would spontaneously combust when it was taken on a person?

He decided that he must go to see the so-called ten wonders of the world on the night of the sting.

But he had other things to do today, so he didn't continue to inquire about the old butler about it, but got up and decided to go shopping. But as soon as I stood up, I found that my little feet were a little sore.

Only then did he remember that his body was only five years old after all, and how could he not be tired after a morning walk.

So he decided to go back and come back tomorrow. By the way, find someone to ask about this bloodthirsty bat carefully.

His father must be more aware of this matter, but Hou Ping'an didn't plan to ask him. Because he knew that there was someone else who would know and would be willing to tell him about it as a five-year-old.
