After being picked up by Daxian

Chapter 19 Jade Rattle

Walking into the teahouse, many literati chatted and drank tea, recited poems and composed Fu, and the jade curtains in the private rooms were drooping, which showed that the people inside were dressed in extraordinary clothes.Seeing Xue Jiang, the waiter in the store hurriedly greeted Xue Jiang enthusiastically: "Guest officer, may I have tea downstairs, or go to the private room upstairs?"

And Xue Jiang just said indifferently: "Xue Jiang is auspicious."

Hearing these four words, the waiter hurriedly invited Xue Jiang to the secluded private room in the stairwell, closed the curtain, and said in a low voice, "But Mr. Xue Jiang Rui?"

"Exactly."

"Master Chiwu has been waiting for you for a long time, I will take you up here." After Xiaoer finished speaking, he transformed into a fairy slave in plain white clothes.He knocked on the wall of the private room, found a hollow, and drew a circle of light with his hands. A phantom floated in the circle of light, and the scene inside could be faintly seen. "My lord, this is the entrance to the box on the top floor, just enter from here."

Xue Jiang walked into the circle of light unhurriedly, until the figure disappeared behind the wall, then the fairy servant erased the traces of the circle of light, changed into the appearance of Xiaoer again, and hurried downstairs to entertain the guests.

After passing through the aperture, it is an extremely luxurious room.The brick red floor is neatly paved, and four carved pillars are towering.The vermilion veils are heavy, countless golden tassels hang down, and the faint smoke of incense floats out, and a figure in red flickers behind the curtain.

The man's black hair was untied and fell casually, and his clothes were only loosely tied up, revealing the wheat-colored skin inside.He was just lying lazily on the red chair made of golden nanmu, fiddled with the incense burner on the table.Hearing the sound of footsteps, he slowly raised his head.

Seeing Xue Jiang, Chi Wu hurriedly got up.Instead of the lazy look just now, a mean smile suddenly appeared on his face. "Oh, busy man, I'm finally waiting for you! Come, come, sit here."

And Xuejiang seemed to be used to it long ago, did not accept Chiwu's "gracious invitation", and sat on a chair a little far away from Chiwu. "Did you bring everything you were asked to bring?"

Chi Wu didn't give up, and sat closer to Xue Jiang with a smile on his face. "Bring it, bring it, bring it all! Where's Hengqing?"

"We just finished solving a place, and the spiritual power was consumed too much, let him rest in an inn." Xue Jiang stretched out a hand, with an indifferent expression: "Bring something, I still have something to do."

"I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time, and had a good time drinking tea, but Hengqing didn't come, and you were leaving so soon, which is really disappointing..." Chiwu curled his lips in disappointment, and took out the cup from his sleeve. Two burdens. "Here, there are elixir and wound medicine in it, and you asked me to bring them."

"Thanks, I'll catch up with you when I have time." Xuejiang roughly checked the baggage, and after confirming that there was no problem, he forcibly broke away Chiwu's hand that was holding him, ignored Chiwu's sobs and pretended to cry to stay, and drew a picture on the wall With the same aperture as before, he left the box.

After Xuejiang left, Chi Wu put away his fake crying in an instant, but his expression was strangely calm.It's just that there was a flash of painful struggle in the eyes, and then it seemed to be suppressed forcibly, returning to the cold and calm.After a long time, he stood up and disappeared into the box.

But he said that when Xuejiang went downstairs, he saw the shopkeeper greet him warmly: "Guest officer, the dim sum in Jinxinlou are all top-notch. Take some back?"

I saw a few big tables behind the door, all neatly arranged with all kinds of snacks.If it was the original Xuexiang, he would just ignore it and leave directly.However, the appearance of someone eating snacks with relish appeared in his mind, and his heart moved slightly. "Pack some boxes of this for me."

-

When Xuexiang came back, all the guests in the hotel had dispersed, and the guys were sitting in front of the door, fanning the cool and joking, bored.There was only a figure in Tsing Yi left in the store, with his head propped on his side, as if he was dozing off.The head nods from time to time, and the hand supporting the head seems to be unable to fall off.Seeing him shaking his head again, he regained consciousness and braced himself again.

Xuejiang walked around behind his back calmly, shaking the snack in his hand in front of Hengqing's eyes.

The dessert exudes a sweet aroma of oil, causing Hengqing to follow the aroma involuntarily and shake her head.Suddenly aware of her actions, Hengqing woke up instantly, with snacks wrapped in oiled paper and string dangling in front of her eyes.Turning his head quickly, Xue Jiang was standing behind him.

Seeing that Hengqing was awake, Xuejiang put the snacks on the table. "Here, by the way, I just passed by a dim sum shop."

When Hengqing heard the word "Dim Sum", her eyes shone with a different light than usual.Busily unraveling the string and opening the oiled paper, only to feel the sweet smell just now is even more tangy, and there are light yellow and soft square snacks neatly stacked inside.I couldn't wait to take a bite, and found that it was my favorite winter melon crisp.

"Winter melon crisps! It's so delicious!" Hengqing put the winter melon crisps into her mouth, and felt that they were crispy and soft, with a fragrance on her teeth and cheeks. After eating a few more pieces, she reluctantly clapped her hands and expressed emotion sound.

Seeing Hengqing's contented expression, Xue Jiang couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth, and then put it away in a flash. "What about those two people?"

"They seemed frightened and didn't eat or sleep well. I went up twice on the way, but they were still sleeping." Hengqing only ate a few and repacked the snacks. "They must have been frightened these days. They must be very hungry after waking up. I will leave these snacks to them..."

"What are you thinking? The two of them are so sick that they are not suitable for eating such greasy food now. I bought some light food." Xue Jiang knew as he watched Hengqing reluctantly look at those snacks. his inner thoughts.

"So, so, these are all bought for me?" Heng Qing's face was a little surprised, because Xue Jiang didn't like sweets at all, and all the snacks sent by other immortals were stuffed into her hands, and she was alone. don't eat.Therefore, it is impossible for Xuexiang to buy these snacks for himself.

Xue Jiang turned his head unnaturally, his cheeks flushed slightly. "Well, it seems that you usually like to eat... so I bought some, conveniently!"

"Really? Thank you so much, Xuejiang!" Hearing the good news, Hengqing immediately unwrapped the freshly wrapped snacks and ate them one bite at a time. Not even scum left.After eating the snacks, Hengqing rubbed her belly, her face was full of satisfaction.

At this time, the two people who were resting in the room also slowly came down from upstairs.Seeing Xue Jiang and Heng Qing talking, she hurriedly approached them: "My lords..."

"Ah, why did you get down? Sit down quickly." Seeing that the boy and girl were still hesitant, Hengqing pulled them to the chairs beside her: "Xuejiang bought some light food for you, hurry up and eat. "

Xuejiang opened the food box, which contained hot lean meat porridge and big white steamed buns, and asked the shop assistant to bring two bowls and spoons. "It seems that ordinary people will eat these when they are not feeling well. If it doesn't work, I will buy it again..."

"No, no need, how could it be bad!" The girl and the boy hurriedly waved their hands, blowing the hot air carefully, and drinking the hot porridge.The girl ate steamed buns and drank porridge, and couldn't help crying. "I, I haven't eaten such a good thing for a long time...it's so delicious..." The young man beside him also had red eyes and just ate with a dull head.

Even for mortals, porridge and steamed buns are nothing more than ordinary food, but the two of them ate with great care, for fear of wasting a little.Looking at the two cautiously, Hengqing's heart ached so much that she couldn't help but patted their heads.

At this time, Xue Jiang also took out his burden, and picked out some elixir and wound medicine: "You also hurry up and drink some medicine, it was given to me by Chiwu before."

"You saw the Chiwu?" Hengqing was a little surprised, the rapidly consumed spiritual power and trauma were difficult to recover for a while, and there were very few native pills left to cover the breath.Originally, he was still debating whether to return to the heaven, but he did not expect that the wound medicine was sent.

"Every time we perform a mission, we need wound medicine supplies, so we have arranged many teleportation points in the mortal world."

Although Hengqing had heard of the teleportation point of the mortal realm before, she did not expect that there was also a teleportation point of the celestial realm in such a remote place. "I see... Then, have you heard anything about the ringing bell?"

Xue Jiang shook his head. "I went near the Linhe River and asked a lot of people. They seemed very afraid, and they didn't want to tell me. They just told me not to know so much. The farther away from the river bank the better. The strangest thing is that there are A piece of Taohuawu is in full bloom, and it is clearly late autumn..."

The girl heard their conversation, but said with some hesitation: "I may know what the ringing bell you are talking about..."

Seeing Hengqing's eyes turned to her, the girl slowly mustered up her courage, and said slowly: "My mother's hometown is near Linhe. However, this is what my mother told me before, and I thought my mother I was joking, I didn’t pay attention, and I don’t remember clearly.”

Hearing the girl's words, Heng Qing hurriedly moved closer to his ear, Xue Jiang also seemed to be listening attentively.The girl looked around, but lowered her voice.

"My mother also heard from others that there was a piece of extremely beautiful Taohuawu on the bank of the river. The peach blossoms blooming in it are unbeatable all the year round. Moreover, every evening, there is always a place in the depths of Taohuawu. There will be a girl's laughter, and the ringing of a bell."

"Someone used to go inside, trying to catch the girl who was making the laugh. But the person who went in never came out again. When he was found the next day, he was already dead inside. Later Some unbelievers also broke in, but they died in the same way. From then on, people who live nearby are very taboo about this and never mention it again.”

"This Taohuawu and this bell-ringing girl are both very weird... It seems that we need to investigate." After listening to the girl's words, Hengqing looked outside. It's brewing in my heart.

"Even if we want to investigate, we need to rest for a few days first." Seeing Hengqing's eagerness to move, Xuejiang stopped his thoughts without hesitation. "With our current physical condition, it is not suitable for investigation at all, and it is very likely that we will be in danger."

Although I was uneasy, but considering the situation of myself and Xuejiang, it was really not suitable for traveling, so Hengqing agreed to stay in the hotel for a rest.It's just the ominous premonition in my heart, but it swells up more and more.
