Chapter 14: My ...... It's called Xiaoling!
After washing, Lu Xingwang and Chef Zhou set off to the market to shop, leaving Roger to clean the shop by himself. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Roger picked up a broom to clean the shop, but at the same time, he was also thinking about a problem, that is, the spiritual root, he was very puzzled, it stands to reason that the moment everyone successfully enters the foundation, they will obviously feel that they are connected to a certain element between heaven and earth, and he is also relatively close to that element, so that he can cultivate twice the result with half the effort. However, from last night until now, he had not felt any closeness to any element, as if he had no spiritual roots.
Roger's knowledge of cultivating immortals comes from those two books, however, no matter what things are recorded in those two books, they are not comprehensive, therefore, Roger has no way of knowing many things about cultivating immortals, and even, he doesn't even know what is after building the foundation, let alone getting his cultivation method and breaking through the foundation. Of course, he has just entered the foundation building, and he is still far from the next realm!
Roger pursed his lips and said secretly: "It's impossible for me to have no spiritual root, but because my spiritual root is too special, it's difficult to find elements that are close to me!" He comforted himself, thinking that he was very special, and secretly became proud.
......
In the morning, guests began to come to the inn, and at this time, the inn gradually became busy. Roger secretly wondered, since yesterday. The passenger flow of the inn began to increase, and even, some of the wealthy people in the city worked hard to come out of the city just to have a meal in the Fulai Inn and meet Sun Chengxuan. However, to their disappointment, Sun Chengxuan has been missing since yesterday morning, and they have not been able to see Sun Chengxuan.
Roger was proud, and said secretly: "Could it be that these people also know that the county order is not easy to mess with, and they worship what I did, so they came to the inn to eat?"
Of course, no one knows the little Jiujiu in his heart, and no one knows how powerful he is. In their eyes, Roger is just a child, a little hairy kid who is good at causing trouble.
They came here completely to befriend Sun Chengxuan, and the rumors spread ten, ten, ten, hundreds, and everyone believed that Sun Chengxuan was a rich man, so they came to scold him.
When it was almost noon, Sun Chengxuan finally appeared, but he didn't come back alone, behind him, a girl estimated to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with her head down, hid behind Sun Chengxuan shyly, not daring to come out.
The girl was very shy, with a small round face, red, and long black hair that was messy, draped behind her at will, and dressed in shabby clothes, even her shoes.
Seeing her, Roger somehow thought of himself, three years ago, he was also like this, and then, Sun Chengxuan met him and gave him a home.
Sun Chengxuan took the girl to the counter, but the girl was still shy and didn't dare to raise her head.
"Let's make an introduction myself!" Sun Chengxuan turned to the girl and said.
"Hmm!" the girl's head lowered, too shy to look at the person next to her.
"I ...... It's called Xiaoling!" The girl held back for a long time before she could hold back such a sentence, and her face was red.
"Hello Xiao Ling! My name is Roger!" Roger reached over to shake Xiao Ling's hand.
And Xiao Ling was stunned, she didn't know what Roger was going to do, so she was so scared that she took a few steps back, not daring to look at Roger.
Sun Chengxuan glared at Roger, as if to say, don't scare Xiaoling. Roger looked embarrassed and explained: "Xiaoling, I don't have any malicious intent, I'm just saying hello to you, just shake hands!"
When a guy saw Roger's appearance, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Roger, it must be your appearance that scares Xiao Ling!"
Roger rolled his eyes at him, ignoring the words as if he hadn't heard them. Xiao Ling was attracted by Roger's appearance, raised her head, peeked a few times, she saw that Roger had no malicious intent, so she plucked up her courage and stretched out her hand to Roger, "Hello!"
At this moment, Roger was very proud, looking at the guy just now, as if to say, look, it's still me Roger!
And the guy was stunned, and watched Roger shake Xiao Ling's hand. So, he also squeezed to Roger's side, squeezed Roger out, stretched out his hand, and a smile appeared on his face, "Hello, my name is Wang Yang!"
"Huh?" Xiao Ling looked puzzled, she couldn't understand why the people here liked to shake hands so much, and after shaking hands with the inexplicable person just now, another one would come. Fortunately, Roger didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what Xiao Ling was thinking, and if he knew, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood and die.
Wang Yang thought that Xiao Ling didn't hear clearly, and said loudly: "Hello, my name is Wang Yang!"
Xiao Ling reacted, and then reached over and shook hands with Wang Yang.
"Ahem!" Sun Chengxuan, who was on the side, coughed lightly and said, "Don't make trouble, Xiaojie, you take her to her room!"
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!" Roger's face was very serious at this moment, as if he had accepted a very important task, and he would complete it even if he lost his life.
Xiao Ling was amused by his appearance at the moment, and couldn't help but chuckle. Although it was short-lived, it could not escape Roger's eyes. The moment Xiao Ling appeared, Roger had a feeling for her and couldn't help but want to amuse her, because he found that this girl was too shy to talk to people.
Maybe it was her dress that touched Roger and reminded Roger of the days when he was a beggar, he knew that it was very bitter, so he sympathized with Xiaoling and wanted her to be optimistic and no longer think about those days.
Roger took Xiaoling to the backyard, there were a total of nine rooms in the backyard, and before there were only eight of them, one room was empty and no one lived in it. Roger led her to the door of the room, opened it, and a puff of dust came in.
"Ahem!" the dust made the two of them cough.
Roger was a little embarrassed, this room was so dirty, but he brought a girl here, he was embarrassed.
"I knew I had cleaned that room in advance!" said Roger, who had no idea that someone would come to live in it, so he never cleaned it.
"Xiao Ling, it's a little dirty here, I'll clean it up for you!" Roger began, obviously he still minded bringing a girl to such a dirty room.
"It's okay, I'll do it myself!" Xiao Ling said softly, she had been begging for many years, and she had no place to live at night, so she slept on the street, which was dirty and messy compared to here, but she was used to it. Now that she has a residence, it's too late for her to be happy, how can she dislike it?
But how could Roger let the girl do it herself, he took a broom by himself, cleaned it up hard, and asked Xiaoling to retreat to the yard first. Xiao Ling nodded and slowly retreated into the courtyard.
Roger worked frantically in the room alone, and it didn't take long for the room to be cleaned and clean, and there was no dust left, Roger was very proud and called the little spirit outside the room in.
After Xiao Ling came in, he was stunned, this room has changed too much, it seems to be different from just now.
Roger was very proud, raised his arrogant little chin, and waited for Xiao Ling's praise. However, he thinks too much, Xiao Ling is introverted and very shy when he speaks, so how can he praise him?
After waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for that compliment, Roger was depressed, and then he remembered that Xiaoling was introverted and very shy when he spoke.
"Forget it, I'll let you go this time!" Roger said in his heart, but in his head, he was thinking about how to quickly integrate Xiao Ling into this small group of their inn. A person, only by integrating into the collective, will not be lonely!
"Xiao Ling, you rest first, I'm going to help in the store!" After thinking about it, there was nothing to do here, and Roger left, leaving Xiao Ling to rest in the room alone.
What Roger didn't know was that although Xiaoling was introverted and didn't dare to speak, she would keep in mind anyone who was good to her, Sun Chengxuan was one, and Roger was also one.
At noon, the number of guests gradually increases, and it is time for lunch, and most of the people who come are here for lunch. There are a few who came to strengthen Sun Chengxuan.
Roger found a free time, walked to Sun Chengxuan's side, and said, "Shopkeeper, don't worry about that matter anymore, they don't dare to bully us!"
Although he was surprised why Roger said this, he was afraid that Roger would cause trouble again, so he said: "Don't mess with the county commander and the son again!"
He disappeared for a day just to settle that matter, and in order to settle it, he spent a lot of money, and he didn't want Roger to cause trouble again at this moment.
But Roger didn't understand, if they didn't come to provoke themselves, it would be fine, but if they came to bully themselves, they would definitely fight back. He still respects Sun Chengxuan very much, and since Sun Chengxuan has spoken like this, he can only promise Sun Chengxuan and try not to provoke them.
Soon, the lunch time has passed, and the number of guests has begun to decrease, and then it is Roger's lunch time, Roger went to the door of Xiao Ling's room and told Xiao Ling that it was time for lunch, and after a while, Xiao Ling came out of the room, still the same as before, with shyness.
"Xiao Ling, do you want Brother Luo to tell you a joke, there was a ...... in the past" Roger didn't know Xiao Ling for a long time, he already called himself Brother Luo, and told Xiao Ling all the jokes he knew, without blushing at all.
After listening, Xiao Ling couldn't help but laugh softly a few times, but still didn't speak.
"It's boring!" said Roger, helplessly.
And Xiaoling was even more shy, not that she didn't want to speak, but she didn't dare to say it, I don't know why, every time she wanted to say it, her face would be very red, and then she stopped being dumbfounded!
At the lunch table, Lu Xingwang stopped his rice bowl and said to Sun Chengxuan: "Old Sun, you don't have to hide it, Xiaojie told us, this kind of thing should not be borne by you alone!" He knew the seriousness of the matter, and the more he knew the seriousness of the matter, the more he knew how much pressure Sun Chengxuan was under.
"It's okay, the matter has been settled. Sun Chengxuan opened his mouth gently, but Lu Xingwang was taken aback, he knew that this kind of thing was not solved just by saying that it was solved, and Sun Chengxuan must have paid a great price.
