Shopkeeper and God

She raised her eyebrows and asked, "What did she do?"

"She...she's going to ask Lord Rong what he means." Qi Xie's shopkeeper came to admire the flowers, so he couldn't speak casually this time, and there was also Xi Ying who came to congratulate on behalf of the mountain god.Xi Ying nodded knowingly, then looked at Lu Xing and said, "My lord, your status is really convenient." These words sounded flattering, but Lu Xing didn't mean to respond. He was smiling in his heart when the door opened again Xi Bai opened half of the door this time, and bowed respectfully, and said: "Master Rong said that you can stay here to enjoy the flowers, and please come with me to the guest room." He made a please gesture.

The expression on Tuan Ling's face became even more tangled, as if he could spit it out just by stepping into that courtyard gate.

Lu Xing didn't mind at all, and said with a smile, "It's better to obey than to be respectful", and walked inside with Xi Ying.Tuan Ling stood there still, Bao Chen pushed him from behind, and the boy came back to his senses, and walked in with stiff steps.But when he entered the door, Xi Bai glanced at him, as if she was very dissatisfied with his younger brother's performance.

The size of the house is not small, Xi Bai led the way in front, and walked through several doorways and corridors, but he didn't see how many people were in the house.Bao Chen looked at the time on his watch, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning, but the fog in the mountains still didn't seem to dissipate, it even condensed in the courtyard, even covering the sunlight.

Walking on the road, Lu Xing casually asked, "Where is Siweimu?"Indeed, although this house is big, it cannot accommodate a sacred tree.Xi Bai didn't look back, the voice came from the front, as if it was also affected by the mist and seemed unreal, she replied: "On the cliff behind the courtyard", after finishing speaking, she pushed a round door in front, revealing Another small courtyard, said: "This is the guest room, you can rest here." Then he led them in.

The guest room is a row of small bungalows. It looks like there should be three or four rooms. The small yard in front of the bungalows is not small. There is a set of stone tea tables and chairs in the yard. It's elegant.Xi Bai brought a few people to the small courtyard, and told them not to be polite. The guest rooms are all newly prepared, and the things in them can be used as you like, so he left it to come to me if there is something else, and he bowed and asked. Walk.

When she saluted, she gave Tuan Ling a wink, and Tuan Ling stared at her eyes, as if she didn't see it, and refused to respond.Xi Bai had no choice but to leave first.As soon as she left like this, several people turned around in the yard, but they didn't find anything unusual, but suddenly a door opened on the other side of the guest room, and a simple man in green bamboo color walked out. Tuan Ling inside was taken aback for a moment, then called him again.

Tuan Ling was shocked all over, and then turned around.

Flower of Shimizuki (4)

"Pei, Peibo... my lord"

Probably seeing someone familiar, Tuan Ling's mind relaxed.It's just that he didn't know if he was too tense before, but when he relaxed like this, Tuan Ling was about to cry, which really shocked the green bamboo-colored man.Peibo hurriedly walked a few steps to his side, and asked in a low and gentle voice.Tuan Ling wiped her tears and didn't answer, she just shook her head to the questions, which made Peibo a little confused, but seeing Tuan Ling raised her head with a smile again, looking a little silly, she just said "Master Peibo It’s still there, which is great.”Peibo couldn't understand him even more, showing a suspicious expression, and finally raised his head to look at the other people in the yard.

The man in the black suit should naturally be an exorcist; the man in casual attire looks ordinary but cannot be seen through at a glance, so he is obviously not an ordinary person; and the most different, of course, is the man in a long gown .

The long gown has a snow-green background, with a red plum embroidered with concubine color on it, even in this foggy weather, it is very eye-catching.Peibo's heart sank, the one who could afford this kind of gown was the only one in the Three Realms.He simply took two steps forward, bowed to Lu Xing and said, "Peibo, the bamboo demon, met the shopkeeper."

The standard of the salute was clean, so Lu Xing also saluted back.Peibo saluted Xi Ying and Baochen again, and then raised his hands and asked, "Sirs and gentlemen, what's the matter here?" The teacher wanted to take pictures of Shiweiki Zhihua, and he came to trouble several times for this, but was naturally rejected by Rong in the end.This time, the exorcist came here with Qi Xie's owner, could it be because of the flower of Siweimu?But Qi Xie won't accept the entrustment of human beings, so it seems a bit strange for these two people to appear together.Plus that man who can't see through...

Thinking of Tuan Ling's appearance just now, Peibo couldn't help frowning.

"Let's put it this way, this Mr. Tuan Ling was injured and recuperated at my place before, and now he is recovering, so I 'abuse my private power' once and only asked him to bring me to appreciate the thousand-year-old flower. No commission fee will be charged anymore." Lu Xing replied with a smile, "Although it is a loss-making business for Qi Xie, if you can feast your eyes, you will have no regrets in this life."

This is indeed human nature, Peibo understood, Lu Xing pointed to Baochen again and said: "This is Baochen, who is in charge of my store, and he came with me. This is Xiying, the demon exorcist from Xishan Sir." As he introduced this, Xi Ying naturally took over the conversation and said, "Master Xishan Mountain Shencang, who works for a certain office, had a good relationship with Siweimu 'Shoumu' in his ancestors. Hearing that Siweimu is blooming today, he will Send me to congratulate." It is also a good way to say.

Peibo nodded, although there was nothing wrong with these statements, but together with the reaction of Tuan Ling seeing him, these people were shrouded in a faint weirdness, which made Peibo intuitively feel that there was something wrong with it. What's the problem, but can't say it.He stood and thought for a while, before Lu Xing smiled and said, "Stop standing, it's still early, why don't we sit down and talk?" He suggested this, and everyone didn't object, so they sat around the stone tea table.After sitting down, Tuan Ling leaned over to Peibo and asked nervously, "How long has Mr. Peibo been here?"

Peibo looked puzzled at his expression, thought for a moment, and replied, "I've been here for a day or two, what's the matter?"

"Then, have you met Lord Rong?" Tuan Ling leaned towards Peibo again.Peibo hid slightly, and when he heard what he said, he shook his head as if remembering something, and said: "You said that, I still want to ask someone. I just stayed here for a few days , Rong never came to see me, and I couldn't find Rong, and only Xibai brought me food. I've been here these days, and I find that there seem to be a lot of people here. It's strange, Siweimu Isn't it about to bloom?" He asked Tuan Ling, but Tuan Ling couldn't answer, her lips were pursed.Lu Xing knew that there were some things that he might not be able to think of the answer to, so he smiled and asked, "Why did Mr. Peibo come here?"

"Me?" Peibo smiled embarrassedly when he heard Lu Xing's question, and said, "I'm ashamed to say... I have always been friends with the owner of Siweimu 'Shoumu'. Siweimu blooms once in a thousand years. As early as years ago, Rong found that the four-flavored tree was showing signs of blooming, so he told me that he would come and take me to enjoy the flowers. Rong sent me an invitation card a few days ago, and I was a few days late because of some things in the bamboo forest. , but I didn’t expect to stay in this guest room all the time, and Rong didn’t see it, and...the mist has never dissipated.” He looked at the sky with some worry, as he is also a herb demon, he naturally knows the sun’s influence. importance.The four-flavored wood is about to bloom, and the weather is really bad.

"Since we have made good friends, this Patriarch doesn't even see you, so he must be hiding something from you." Xi Ying never knew how to speak properly.Peibo froze for a moment, then turned sullen, obviously unable to understand why he would say such a thing.Lu Xing didn't want to see the two of them fighting right after they arrived, so he simply asked, "Did you hear any rumors when Mister came here?" It was obviously meant to change the subject.Peibo glared at Xiying again, but after all he couldn't answer Lu Xing's question, so he suppressed his anger and asked deeply, "The so-called rumor is...?"

"Such as strange voices, or something disturbing happened?" Lu Xing's question sounded casual, but Tuan Ling's back was already tense.Peibo didn't notice Tuan Ling's emotional changes, and when he heard Lu Xing's question, he thought about it and replied, "Strange voices and uneasy things...my lord's words are a bit general..." He seemed very embarrassed, but then he changed his mind Thinking of something, he said: "However, when I went up the mountain, a little monster once reminded me not to go up, saying that a few days ago, I saw a Raksha coming up the mountain. I was also worried at first, but after I went up, I didn't No abnormality was found... Master shopkeeper, did you hear something at the foot of the mountain?"

Peibo was just hearing the rumors, so Lu Xing just went with the flow and said with a smile, "Indeed, I was stopped by a few little monsters when I came here, and they were very scared when Raksha came down the mountain..." Before he finished speaking, the next Bao Chen, who had been silent all this time, held his wrist.Lu Xing was startled, and before he had time to retract his wrist, he turned to look at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Baochen looked in the direction of the courtyard gate, and made a silent gesture.

The meaning is so obvious that anyone can understand it.Xi Ying was overjoyed. He knocked on the table and then stood up and walked towards the door. He put his hand on his waist, where he was wearing their special firearms for exorcising demons.Tuan Ling turned pale with fright again, he even wanted to pull Peibo's clothes, but he stretched out his hand but didn't dare to pull it, he just froze there.
