Chapter 113: Like Gathers
Heaven is clear, all things have their own rules, no matter whether the creatures of heaven and earth can understand the truth, they all follow the line.
Because of the incomprehensible induction between the two, although Xiaobai decided to lead Qi Xue into the threshold of cultivation, teach her martial arts first, lay a good foundation, and then teach her to practice qi later, but when it was her turn to do it, it was difficult.
When Qi Xue was first diagnosed and treated, the confusing fragrance emanating from Qi Xue's body, the fleeting killing machine on Qi's mother, and Qi Xue's own secrets all showed that the other party's treatment behavior had a different purpose.
In fact, the easiest way is to let their family roll up the bed and get out, leave the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, and don't believe that the other party will have the courage to knock on the door to calculate him in the future, and a slap will not kill them. But doing so goes against the mysterious sense in his heart that he wants to keep Qi Xue by his side, I don't know what's going on, as long as Qi Xue is close to him, he will have an inexplicable sense of peace in his heart.
Then I had to stay by my side, after thinking about it, Xiaobai didn't want to teach Qi Xue as a master and apprentice, it is best to pass on the art from generation to generation, but there is no constraint on the door rules, convenience is convenient, but there are also many hidden dangers.
Thinking that she would teach her to practice qi in the future, and step into the ranks of monks, finally Xiaobai and Qi Xue signed a blood contract spell, and the moment the blood contract took effect, Xiaobai's wisp of divine consciousness turned into a complex and mysterious talisman forbidden, enveloping an area in Qi Xue's sea of consciousness. At the same time, Xiao Bai involuntarily gave birth to a realization in his heart, in the future, he taught Qi Xue martial arts, as long as he added a sentence "do not teach and receive privately" after teaching, then these martial arts knowledge will be automatically stored in this area.
The forbidden talisman formed by the blood contract and his divine sense is like a smart bomb, and the things stored in the sea of consciousness shrouded in the talisman are touched, and if they are touched and violate the terms of the contract, the talisman will be detonated.
The consequences can be imagined. Such a ruthless and unpredictable method made Xiaobai a little creepy about the monk world for a while.
After taking care of Qi Xue's affairs, Mr. Qi went back to the city, and Qi's mother stayed to take care of Qi Xue.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day to go to Tianjin and Hong Kong to make an appointment.
Flying eaves bucket arch carved beams painted building, bluestone slatted pavement on both sides of the street antique shops row upon row, lacquer doors and windows, arched corridors, dragon flying phoenix dance shop name cloth banner in the wind, less very rhythmic buying and selling, more fashionable clothes of tourists intertwined and coming, do not go to see the decoration and trading of the store, Liren Lane is like a dream in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Xiaobai is not an elegant person, a grassroots one, he glanced back and forth in the street, and walked to a restaurant that he couldn't afford to chew without touching the ground, not that he had a soft spot for this foreign restaurant, but in his opinion, there was no better choice.
It's not time to eat at this time, so it's good to find a comfortable place to pass the time.
The teahouse is actually a good choice, but the teahouse here is no longer the tone of the common people's route in the old days, and they are trying to drum in the direction of elegance and nobility, not to mention drinking tea, and they all call him uncomfortable like a flea when he sits inside. The coffee bar or something and the teahouse are half a catty or two, and the people who enter it are the same regardless of their background, they all pretend to take the tone, not to mention the foreign sin of drinking the deadly drink to decorate the style and taste.
There is no choice, the short man is taller, and he can't afford to make do with it.
Xiaobai smiled self-deprecatingly, it seems that we are not serving dog meat.
Not long after walking a few steps, Xiaobai heard someone on the side shouting to him, "Xu Zan, this way, this way."
Diagonally across from the window seat on the second floor of a teahouse, Samba greeted him with a long outstretched arm.
The first floor of the teahouse was empty, there were no guests, and when I went to the second floor, I realized that it was wrapped by the group of people upstairs. looked around and found that there were not a few people sitting on the second floor, and they were talking and laughing in groups. At a glance, all of these people have extraordinary temperaments, either gentle and elegant, or radiant, rich and noble, and their bodies naturally reveal the demeanor and bearing cultivated by long-term wealth and nobility.
Seeing him go upstairs, many people were also looking up at him.
"Sang Wu, this is the Xu Zan you admired before"?
The one who spoke was a young man under twenty years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and there was a bit of disapproval in his words.
"Here, Xu Zan, leave him alone" Samba glanced at the young man, stood up and greeted with a smile.
Xiao Bai smiled freely, ignoring the provocation in the tone of the younger man, and walked straight to the samba table. Although he is about the same age as the young man, he followed his old man to the door and alley when he was very young, and he can be regarded as having seen the ups and downs of the world, not to mention that his family has been poor since he was a child, and he should be said that the children of poor families are in charge of the family early, and his heart is more sophisticated than that of ordinary peers.
"I didn't expect you to come early", sitting down, Xiaobai greeted with a smile, and nodded at the other two people at the same table with a smile.
"It's nothing, thinking that Jingang is definitely going to come to some friends from the three mountains and five mountains this time, so I came early, you see it's not, just meet some friends, everyone usually has a lot of people from all over the world, and it's difficult to get together, just take this opportunity, come, I'll introduce you to it."
The young man sitting opposite Samba, twenty-four or five, with a Chinese face, a long-eyed sword eyebrow and a heroic spirit, called Gong Chengying, a native of Wuling, with a deep eyebrow line and a slightly narrow jaw, but with typical Bashu characteristics. The young man with the side hand is called Xiang Dong, a Hunan person, fifteen or sixteen years old, with red lips and white teeth, a small face with a round face, a slight lip line and a smile before speaking, and he will be happy when he looks at it.
As he spoke, Samba filled the teacup in front of Xiaobai.
Xiaobai politely said "Fortunately, fortunately", watching Samba's movements, but there were bursts of secret hair in his heart. At the same table with this guy, not to mention the tea he poured, he poured it himself, and he didn't dare to drink it if he dared to do so.
"Meeting is fate, everyone sits at a table today, and they will be friends in the future, happy, come, let's replace wine with tea, dry this cup" Sambahaha smiled, arched the cup in greeting, raised his hand and raised his neck, drank a cup of tea, and did it first as a respect. The whole set of actions is smooth, and there is no indescribable free and easy spirit, and no one is allowed to interject in the middle.
After the little fat man was unwilling, he raised his neck and drank the next drink.
Brother Yingqi was silent, and he also drank a drink.
Four cups of dry three cups, only the cup in front of Xiaobai is left, don't drink it, don't drink it, don't dare to drink it, looking at this cup of tea Xiaobai only felt that the green meridian next to his temples jumped suddenly, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart, "This thing shouldn't be intentional, it must be intentional, I know that the master is afraid that he will be Gu, uncle's, revenge last time."
But even this Li'er can't afford him not to drink this cup of tea at this time.
Halfway through the stretch of his hand, he was about to hold the cup, his hand retracted again, and his hand stretched out again, and he cheered himself up in his heart, "Uncle, don't say that there may be no Gu, even if there is, just a little Gu poison will definitely not be able to help the master, who is the master, the dignified fifth-layer qi practitioner can be afraid of this."
Having said that, the Gu poison is weird and unpredictable, and if you want to drink this cup of tea, you are really scared.
After hesitating again and again, Xiaobai still decided not to drink, just cut face, it's better than the Tao.
opened his mouth, and Xiaobai wanted to say something pushing.
The expression on Xiaobai's face changed, and the three people on the table looked at it, neither urging nor speaking, just when he was about to say the words of resignation, the little fat man on the side suddenly interjected and said, "Hehe, you don't dare to drink the tea poured by Fifth Brother Sang, I'm afraid that he will be tricked, I'm the same as you, I usually have to eat with him at the same table, I have this ready."
As he spoke, the little fat man took out a white white jade porcelain bottle from his arms, uncorked the bottle, and poured out a small pill the size of a soybean and a bright red color from it. The pill landed in the middle of the palm, emitting bursts of malt aroma with a fishy smell.
Damn, this thing looks much more evil than tea, and the master would rather drink tea than eat this thing.
I had the intention of resisting in my heart, and the little fat man originally smiled kindly, but now I feel hypocritical, and I said in my heart that maybe you are working together to trick me, and I will not be fooled. Although they don't necessarily mean to harm themselves, they are sure that they will be tricked.
I thought so in my heart, but the words I said were much more righteous and awe-inspiring, "Say what you say, is Samba such a person, really, it's just that I have recently cultivated a method to a critical juncture, and I need to avoid it, but I really can't bear to make everyone's faces, and I hesitate for a while, and I don't know what to do."
said that he looked at everyone with a sincere face, and the regret in the apology was hard to hide, which was really moving.
In terms of talking nonsense with your eyes open, the thickness of your skin, these are not the same.
"Haha, I'll just say that this guy will definitely not be fooled, in terms of the thickness of the skin, let's tie a piece is not one, look, I said it right, Gong Er, hurry up" Samba suddenly smiled, grabbed the porcelain bottle in front of the little fat man, opened the cork, shook the bottle and looked inside, counted, and looked at it, and at a glance, the smile became more and more toothless and blind, and the joy overflowed to the face was colored, and he didn't forget to pick up the one he took out before the little fat man, and put it into the bottle like a baby.
Brother Yingqi also looked at Xiaobai helplessly at this time, and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms with a wry smile and threw it to Samba.
Samba didn't have the consciousness of being forgiving and forgiving, took the bottle, uncorked the bottle angrily, counted the points, and then put it away satisfied.
Rao is a little white and thick-skinned, but it is still a little embarrassing to be said to someone's face like this. At this point, I probably understand what's going on, and I dare to love these guys for making their own bets.
"Well, this is for you, cocktail grass is made with several herbal secret methods, which can restrain most Gu poisons" After collecting the loot, Samba smiled and took out a vial from his arms and threw it to Xiaobai, as a share of the profit of the heroes who won this game for him.
Although it was gambled, it didn't hurt, and Xiaobai still had this bit of energy. smiled and thanked him, and calmly put the porcelain vase in his arms and put it away.
After this joke, the distance between each other was narrowed a lot, and everyone from all over the world became angry.
Xiaobai has walked the streets and alleys with his old man since he was a child, and he knows a lot of anecdotes and strange things in the countryside, some of which he has seen with his own eyes, and some of which are hearsay.
There is a way to gather like things, people to groups, the same table was born in Wuling, Gonger, Xiangchuan's little fat man, what he studied is also related to witch Gu, driving out corpses and refining Gu, summoning spirits and exorcisms, asking God to lower his head, this kind of thing is more Shendao Taoist, others see it secret, and it is even more appetizing and fascinating to tell the story in the line.
What is different from Xiaobai is that these three people are all from a family background, and even if the other party just talks about some things casually, it is very beneficial for him to be born in a wild way.
No matter how it is divided, it will not be wrong to summarize this table in one word, the god stick in the eyes of the world is, when they get together, the most talked about is naturally the matter of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods.
