Jiuzun asked

It was already evening when Xiao Wenwen left the brothel, and the sky was not yet dark.In the sky, the moon like a white handkerchief was already hanging in mid-air, facing the sun that had not yet set across the sky.

He walked back alone, and Nalan Dieyi was left behind by Yi Mubai. Yi Mubai said that there was a lack of tea maker around him, and Nalan Dieyi was willing to stay.

Nalan Dieyi stayed in the brothel, Xiao Wenwen felt happy in his heart.He knew that he wanted to practice Taoism, so he naturally put his children's love aside. The most important thing was that he knew that he was going back to the Frozen City of the Demon Race. After all, he is a human race, and in the demon race, no one knows if there will be unstoppable variables. He doesn't want to implicate her.

When Xiao Wenwen walked to the snow hut, he saw a shadowy figure, and when he got closer, he really was Tang Shishui whom he met during the day.

Seeing Xiao Wenwen approaching, Tang Shuishui went up to meet him and cupped his hands, saying, "Young Master Xiao, my house and yours were originally on the same street, named Meilu, and there were three plum trees in the garden. Tonight, I suddenly took the liberty to disturb you. Don’t be surprised.”

Xiao Wenwen looked at his appearance of a modest gentleman, it was really hard for him to say that he was tired, so it was inconvenient for him to entertain guests.

Xiao Wenwen smiled and said, "Brother Tang is a close neighbor, so please come in quickly."

Tang Shuishui looked at him alone and asked, "I don't know what happened to Madam Sister-in-law's forehead injury, why didn't I see Madam Sister-in-law. I also went to Qingyufang to buy some pastries, and I came here to make amends."

Xiao Wenwen looked at the pastry wrapped in parchment paper between his two fingers, with the words "Osmanthus cake" written on it.

Said to him: "She has stayed with Grandpa Yi, and will accompany him, the old man."

Xiao Wenwen opened Tang Shuishui's wooden door and welcomed him in. When he saw the black donkey wearing gold and silver, he stared at him.

Only now did he think of tying the black donkey to a wooden stake when he went out, fearing that the black donkey would have been hungry all day.

Xiao Wenwen hurried over to untie the noose, guessing that the black donkey was also hungry and red-eyed, as soon as he let go of the noose, it galloped away, found a piece of grass, and chewed it.

Tang Shuishui looked at the black donkey and said, "You donkey is really intelligent."

Entering the room, Xiao Wenwen picked up the teacup, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Tang Shaoshui, then poured himself a cup and drank it down.

The road from the brothel to the old mansion of the humble family, although not tiring, was also very thirsty.

Tang Shaoshui held the ice-cold tea, watched Xiao Wendao drink happily, just took a sip, and almost spit it out.Herbal tea is nothing more than leaves, it is bitter and cold, hard to swallow.

However, looking at the speed at which Xiao Wendao drank the tea, it seemed that the pot of tea was almost finished.

Tang Shaoshui was also embarrassed, picked up the teacup and poured it again, the bitter taste instantly filled his mouth.He opened the sweet-scented osmanthus cake by himself, took out a piece, stuffed it into his mouth and began to bite.

Xiao Wenwen thought he was hungry, so he said, "I don't have anything prepared at home, why don't I invite Brother Tang to eat at the wine shop on the street."

As soon as Tang Shaoshui heard the word "wine shop", he chewed the pastry in his mouth until he finished grabbing Xiao Wenwen's sleeve and walked out.

Xiao Wenwen was about to take some silver taels when he was dragged out of the door.

Jufu Restaurant.

A plate of peanuts, a plate of sauced beef, three or four meat and vegetable platters.A pot of shochu from Shaoshan.

Tang Shaoshui poured water for Xiao Wendao, chewed a few peanuts first, and took a sip.The sound of drinking is accompanied by the sound of "silk".His handsome face was so hot that he pulled it down.Then, he pursed his lips as if he was still admiring the fragrance of the wine.

Tang Shuishui looked at Xiao Wenwen and said, "Although this wine shop is a bit crude, the wine is quite tasty. Brother Xiao, try it."

Xiao Wenwen picked up the cup of wine, poured it into his mouth and said, "This wine really quenches your thirst."

Tang Shaoshui looked at Xiao Wendao, drinking and drinking tea are both virtues, but he liked it.The ancients said that wine tastes character, and character depends on tea.

Drinking and drinking tea are so enjoyable, as if I have found a confidant.

Xiao Wenwen suddenly remembered Tang Zhan who was competing with him today and asked, "Brother Tang, how is your friend Mr. Tang Zhan doing now?"

Tang Shaoshui said: "His injury is not in the way."

When Xiao Wenwen thought that his right arm was gone, it would not be a problem, so he asked: "His right arm is gone, is there any panacea that can heal his right arm?"

Tang Shaoshui said: "There is no medicine in this world that can give birth to white meat and heal stumps. However, his life is fine, brother Xiao needn't worry."

Life is worry-free, but it hurts people to be disabled.After all, I feel sorry.

Xiao asked and continued: "If I have time, I still want to visit Mr. Tang Zhan."

Tang Shaoshui nodded and said, "Drink, celebrate Brother Xiao's wedding, and celebrate my meeting a bosom friend like Brother Xiao."

Xiao Wenwen saw that he seemed to be drunk when he said that.

Can't drink, but likes to drink.

Xiao Wenwen didn't quite understand the temperament of the people from Zhongzhou.

Xiao Wenwen supported Tang Shishui, and went to the snow hut.Originally, he wanted to send him to Meilu, but after thinking about it, he was already drunk, so it would be convenient for him to stay in Xuelu.

When Tang Shaoshui entered the thatched hut, he yelled that he was thirsty. Xiao Wenwen put Tang Shaoshui on the bed in the house and boiled water to make tea.

After making the tea, Tang Shaoshui still met Duke Zhou.

Xiao asked himself a cup of bitter tea, drinking it to himself.

After all, bitter tea is hard to cure.

Xiao Wenwen was lying on the small bed where Nalan Dieyi lay yesterday, and he could still smell the faint fragrance of orchids left by Nalan Dieyi on the tip of his nose.

Wake up from a dream.

Cooking porridge by himself, chopping and marinating vegetables, Xiao Wendao's palms were covered with fine sweat as he was busy.

Only now did Xiao Wenwen understand that Nalan Dieyi probably got up an hour earlier than him to make these meals.

As soon as Xiao Wenwen put the rice porridge and pickles on the small wooden table in the garden, Tang Shaoshui yawned and sat on the stool no sooner or later, sucking the rice porridge.Pick up a piece of pickle with chopsticks, put it in your mouth and chew it.

This Tang Shaoshui is also acquainted, who would have thought that someone who has only known each other for a day is sleeping in someone else's house and drinking.

Xiao Wenwen couldn't help sighing, if life is just seeing for the first time.

Is this still the humble son Tang Shuishui?

Xiao Wenwen looked at Tang Shuishui and said, "Brother Tang hasn't returned all night, so we should hurry home and report to the family that he is safe, so that the elders in the family won't be worried."

Tang Shishui said, yes.Then he said, "I don't know what else is planned for today, brother asked. If there is no arrangement, why don't you go and watch the opening discussion of the human race and the demon race. Today has just started, and there is a lot of excitement."

Xiao Wenwen thought for a while and said, "Alright."

Tang Shuishui bounced off the stool after hearing him say these two words.

Tang Shaoshui said: "I'll go home and tell you about safety, and I'll be here in a while."

After finishing speaking, he walked out the door.

Xiao Wenwen washed the cups and bowls that he had eaten, and just put them away.

Tang Shuishui stood at his door and said, "Let's go, Brother Xiao."

Xiao Wenwen roughly calculated the time, and he probably didn't even have time to make a cup of tea this time.

Shang Jing, Chu Yun Taoist Temple.

The human race and the monster race competed.It can be counted as the highlight of the triennial event.

Tang Shishui took Xiao Wendao, who was familiar with the way, through the Chuyun courtyard. If Xiao Wendao was asked to go back by himself, he might not be able to go back.

Chuyun Temple is one of the three major monasteries in Shangjing, and it is also the largest one in the monastery.

Xiao Wen asked Tang Shuishui's appearance and said, "How come you are so familiar with Chuyun Courtyard?

Tang Shaoshui said: "The two clans asked, and the opening ceremony is held every year in Chuyunyuan, so I come to see the excitement every year."

Xiao Wenwen also asked curiously: "Shouldn't Shangjing have two other Daoyuans? Why is it only held in this one?"

Tang Shuishui looked at Xiao Wenwen and said, "Brother Xiao is not from Shangjing."

Xiao asked and replied, "I've only been here for three days, and today is the third day."

Tang Shuishui was really shocked when he heard this sentence. He married a daughter-in-law just three days after he arrived in Shangjing, and he also has a grandfather who is a great general.

Tang Shaoshui was surprised and said: "You can't lie to me, you begged for a wife as soon as you arrived in Shangjing, and you also have a grandfather who is a general of Tianwu.

Xiao Wenwen said: "I came to Shangjing to practice Taoism. Nalan's family is old with my ancestors, but just after I came back from Nalan's house, Dieyi was sitting in a sedan chair at the door of my house. Although, I also I don't know the reason, but since Dieyi has arrived at my door, I naturally want to welcome Dieyi in, otherwise, a little girl would die of shame."

Tang Shaoshui thought about it in his heart. He had only seen Nalan Chanyi of the "Emperor Phoenix Bloodline" in this Nalan family. He had squeezed mud together when he was a child. He had never heard of Nalan Dieyi's name. What kind of tricks are you playing.

Although he couldn't figure it out, he followed the topic just now without thinking too much: "There are two reasons why this opening ceremony is only held in Chuyun Temple. The first reason is that Shangjing's other two Taoist temples, One of them is called Fuyao Courtyard, and there is a "Demon Subduing Tower" in the center of the courtyard. Do you think it will be in Fuyao Courtyard? The other Taoist temple is called Tiandou Courtyard, and there is a "Devil Demon Bottle" in it. Do you think it will be in Fuyao Courtyard? Is there? The second reason is that the current demon emperor Dugu Luoheng once practiced Taoism in Chuyunyuan. Therefore, every time the opening ceremony of the competition between the two races is held at Chuyunyuan."

Xiao Wenwen understood the reason.

Xiao Wenwen continued to ask: "Then among these three Taoist temples, which one can cure the inability to gather spiritual energy in the dantian?"

Only now did Tang Shuishui look at Xiao Wencai cautiously and said: "At first I thought your cultivation base was in the qi illumination state, but you couldn't feel the aura. It seems that you came to Shangjing not only for cultivating Taoism, but mainly for I want to heal your pubic region that does not gather spiritual energy, but this is easy to do. This is a blood defect of a cultivator, and it is not so easy to heal. However, among Shangjing’s three main avenues, Chuyun Academy is best at alchemy and medicine. Why don't you sign up to come to Chuyun Daoist Academy in two months' time."

When Xiao asked in a daze, the opening ceremony had already begun.And he was not interested in the opening ceremony of the so-called discussion between the two races.

Tang Shaoshui tugged Xiao Wenwen's sleeve and said, "Look, that is the Nine-Colored Poison Bird. It is said that it has been eating poison since childhood. A drop of blood in its body can poison hundreds of people, but it is really beautiful. Ah, the legendary fairy bird Suzaku is nothing more than that."

Xiao Wenwen said lightly, "There should really be gods in this world."

Tang Shaoshui's eyes were only on the nine-colored poisonous bird, and he said in his mouth, "If there is a chance, I will catch one and play with it."

Xiao Wenwen also took a look at the Nine-Colored Poison Bird, and a sense of dullness suddenly came to his mind.
