Liao Zhai Great Kind People

Chapter 143 Yan Chixia

The dryad's grandma fled back to her lair, but she still had lingering fears.

She was originally a locust tree that became a spirit, absorbed the essence of heaven and earth, and practiced for hundreds of years before she was able to take shape.

After the transformation, her body evolved into a locust forest, forcing the female ghosts who died nearby to seduce men and absorb Yang Qi for her own cultivation.

Now, she has a thousand years of Taoism, which can be said to be well-informed.

Among the many evil sects she has met, the name Tianmo Zhang Xiu cannot be avoided no matter what.

When Zhang Xiu was born, he ran amok, felled mountains and destroyed temples, and his reputation spread far and wide. No matter whether he was good or evil, he heard his name.

Even the Yin Division he was in was not under the jurisdiction of the underworld, and was called the Yinyue Dynasty.

After 50 years, the demon reappeared, making the dryad's grandmother tremble for a while.

The other monsters ran away as well, but her body was a locust tree, so she couldn't escape even if she wanted to!

Looking at the shivering grandma, Xiao Hong covered her mouth, feeling a burst of surprise in her heart.

That scholar is so powerful, grandma...has been conquered by him? ?

Xiaoqian asked with a puzzled expression, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

Grandma took a deep breath, tried her best to calm herself down, and said slowly: "I have met the enemy, if I can get through this disaster safely, grandma will teach you the method of my practice in the future."

Nie Xiaoqian frowned, and said, "Grandma is right, but that scholar from Lanruo Temple?"

Grandma nodded slowly: "It's him, if any of you can take him down, Grandma will give her 500 years of cultivation!"

Xiao Hong immediately became excited when she heard the words: "Grandma, don't worry, I will dress up carefully tomorrow night, and I will be able to take him down!"

Nie Xiaoqian frowned, looking worried.

Even grandma is so afraid of that scholar, how could Xiaohong take him down?

However, if you can seize the opportunity, this is a good opportunity to get out of grandma's control...

The three of them looked at each other with hypocritical smiles, each with their own thoughts, and stayed up all night.

On the other side, Zhang Xiu slept until dawn, looked at the sunlight shining on her buttocks, sat up lazily, opened the door and went outside to wash up.

While brushing his teeth, a rough-looking bearded man walked in, dressed as a scholar, his appearance and attire made Zhang Xiu see Yan Feng in a daze.

Looking at the bearded man, Zhang Xiu couldn't help being in a daze for a while.

The bearded man smiled heartily, and saluted: "Brother Taiwan is well, I'm Xia Yan Chixia, and now the scientific examination is coming soon, and the housing prices in the city are expensive, Yan wants to borrow here temporarily, please help me."

Zhang Xiu came back to her senses and said with a slight smile, "The rooms in this temple are all mine, so you won't be charged for the room fee. If you want to live in this desolate place, you can come to me for advice sooner or later. I guarantee that you will be admitted to a... scholar!"

Yan Chixia was so moved that she couldn't speak when she heard the words: "..."

However, I am now a Juren! !
Looking at Yan Chixia who was attached to and moved, Zhang Xiu was amused, and said, "Your name is the same name as the grandson of an old friend of mine. His surname is also Yan. When his grandson was born, there was a flower that looked like a horse floating in the sky. Hongxia, originally I wanted to name him Ma Yun, but unfortunately his grandfather didn't agree, he really doesn't know what to do."

Yan Chixia: "@#￥%￥#@..."

It's no wonder you can agree, you even changed his family's surname! !
In just a few words, Yan Chixia already had a general understanding of Zhang Xiu's character, and with the corners of her eyes twitching slightly, she went to clean the room next door to Zhang Xiu, and cleaned the room after a while.

Walking out of the room, Yan Chixia saw that Zhang Xiu had pulled out a few lotus roots from the pond, lit a fire and started cooking. The aroma of sliced ​​lotus root made Yan Chixia's index finger twitch.

Zhang Xiu glanced at Yan Chixia and said with a smile: "It's packed, the meal is almost ready, let's have a drink later!"

Yan Chixia said with a troubled face: "Brother, don't look at me as old, but in fact I... only sixteen this year!"

Zhang Xiu was stunned, and said with a surprised face: "Could it be that you... are a programmer?"

Yan Chixia looked puzzled: "What ape? I'm a human, not a monster?"

Zhang Xiu smiled a little, and just about to speak, a big-headed scholar with a rosaceous nose came in, followed by an old servant, looked at the environment in the temple, and said proudly: "Mi Zhao, I Grandfather is Zhao Ji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu's expression became a little weird, and she murmured in a low voice, "There's another grandson..."

Yan Chixia: "???"

Although he also disliked Mi Zhao's grandson, why?

At the same time, the old servant looked at Zhang Xiu's face, as if he had seen it before, shook his head to dispel the scattered memories in his mind, stepped forward with a smile, took out the ingredients, and helped Zhang Xiu cook.

"Young master, take a rest first, I brought some meat and I will cook you a special dish."

"Well, then there is work."

Zhang Xiu stepped aside and watched the old servant skillfully cook braised pork, and added some rice wine into the pot. This was the first time he had seen this method, and asked curiously, "Are you cooking braised pork?"

The old servant nodded with a smile: "Well, at first glance, the young master must be an outsider. The old man cooks a famous dish in Jinhua Mansion - braised Zhang Xiu!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu's eyes immediately widened: "What is braised in red?"

The old servant smiled and said: "Hehe, you don't know something about this. This Zhang Xiu was originally the prefect of Jinhua Prefecture. Later, the people called the dish he invented to commemorate his contribution. Braised Zhang Xiu in soy sauce, in addition, there are fried Zhang Xiu's feet and steamed Zhang Xiu's chicken!"

Zhang Xiu: "@#￥%￥#@..."

Although these dishes are not invented by myself, but... I really thank you all!

Seeing Zhang Xiu's complicated expression, the old servant lost his mind, and said, "Speaking of which, you still look a bit like that Duke Zhang. I was lucky enough to meet Mr. Zhang a few times when I was in Luzhou Academy... "

Soon, several dishes were ready, and the four of them were full.

Zhang Xiu burped, then looked at the three people at the dinner table with a serious face, and said, "Since you come to live in my temple, I have to be responsible for your safety. When you sleep at night, you must remember Light the lamp."

Yan Chixia's eyes froze, and she looked at Zhang Xiu in surprise.

When he came to Lanruo Temple, he found that the temple was very dark, and after listening to Zhang Xiuyi, he became more sure of his guess.

This temple is haunted!

Could it be that Zhang Xiu is also a practitioner like him?

Upon hearing this, Secretary Zhao tilted his head in confusion: "Why do you have to light oil lamps at night?"

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly, and then explained sincerely: "Because it's dark at night."

Yan Chixia: "@#￥%￥#@..."

forget it! !
