Is there any estrangement?
That's not okay.
For Liu Xing, Han Yu was the most important NPC he met after entering the martial arts module, and he was also the most famous NPC. Therefore, Liu Xing felt that if he could become friends with Han Yu, his status in the alliance would be greatly improved. It will be more stable, because this is a network of people, and it is a top network of people that everyone can understand and recognize.
After all, most of the players in the league now know the name "Han Yu", and as long as the news is spread, many players will definitely be willing to join the league for Han Yu.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing made up his mind and felt that it would be better for him to become Han Yu's friend, so that he could find an opportunity to lure him to Tianshui Town later.
If he wasn't a friend, it might be more troublesome to do this, because Han Yu could only be polite to him at most, but it would be too troublesome to ask him to come over. After all, he didn't have nothing to do.
So Liu Xing smiled and shook his head, patted Han Yu on the shoulder and said: "Brother Han, don't think that I, the divine envoy, am so high-ranking. In the final analysis, I am just a sounding board, and I have no reason to become the divine envoy." As for getting any substantial benefits, after all, I am a captain in name only... How can I put it, after I became a divine envoy, I was not as happy as before, because I was also worried that I was doing something. After these things happen, you will be punished by God from the East Palace Canglong."
Han Yu looked at Liu Xing in surprise, then looked up at the sky, saying that he didn't know why Liu Xing said that. Wasn't he afraid that the Canglong in the East Palace in the sky would know that he was arranged?
"Oh, it's okay. The Eastern Palace Canglong, or the gods all over the sky, also have other things to do in normal times, so they can't just stare at us every day and do nothing, right? Then this god is also responsible. Isn’t it too boring? And after I became a divine envoy, I can sense the arrival of the East Palace Canglong in advance, so I don’t need to worry about some words being heard by it.”
Liu Xing hit him hard, and then said seriously: "Brother Han, do you know why I wear a mask every day? That's because I had leprosy when I was very young, so I look like this now Maybe they are not as handsome as the wild boars on the mountain, so you can imagine how marginalized I was when I was a child... Alas, as a doctor, I actually understand their thoughts, so I don't I blame them, I just blame my own bad luck.”
"This may be one of the reasons why I am very interested in poetry, because when I was a child I couldn't find anyone to play with me, so I could only stay at home and read medical books, and some medical books contained medicinal materials and prescriptions. I compiled a poem, which is what we often call a medicinal soup song. Over time, I fell in love with poetry and began to try to write poems myself. However, I have never had the opportunity to share it with others. After all, I am this I don’t have many friends, and as the only official doctor in Shilibaxiang, my father is very busy every day.”
Having said this, Liu Xing looked at Han Yu and said very seriously: "So Brother Han, although we have only met for a few days, you are already my friend that I can count on one hand, and you are also the only one. Friends who can communicate in poetry, so I don’t want you to think too much about my status as a divine envoy, because there is really nothing to say about this title of divine envoy. In the final analysis, it is just a person who only does things and cannot get it. It’s just a sinecure with some benefits.”
Before Han Yu could speak, Liu Xing put his hands behind his back and said, "It's easy to get ten thousand taels of gold, but it's hard to find a close friend! Brother Han, if you can, please treat me as you did before."
The poem Liu Xing recited at this time was written by Cao Xueqin, so Liu Xing did not need to worry about Cao Xueqin coming to ask for copyright fees from him at this time.
When Liu Xing heard about the existence of Lu You, he thought that Luo Guanzhong's name might appear in his family. After all, they were the most famous family in history. As a result, Liu Xing checked the memory of "Liu Peng" , I found that there are no names that I am familiar with among the famous families today, and there are no famous ones, and there is not much similar content.
So Liu Xing estimates that these and the author are all because the book was written relatively late, or even later than the background setting time of this martial arts module, so they did not appear in this martial arts module; of course, there is another possibility. Certain things did not happen, so the corresponding theme cannot be written. After all, this adaptation is not a random arrangement. How can the Little Mermaid turn into a big tilapia?
That's why Liu Xing boldly borrowed Cao Xueqin's poem, and the content of this poem is also very simple and plain, so even if someone writes the same poem, everyone will think it is just a coincidence.
"I understand, Brother Liu."
Han Yu took a deep breath and said seriously: "It's because I have a villain's heart and try to get rid of a gentleman! I actually thought that Brother Liu, after you became an envoy again, you would look down on a friend like me who wants nothing. It seems that I really thought too much."
Liu Xing turned around and said with a smile: "Yes, Brother Han, you really think too much. Our friendship is not something that Donggong Canglong can control!"
Just when Liu Xing was about to say something, he saw the housekeeper not far away running out the door with several servants, carrying swords, guns and sticks.
"What happened? Father actually wants to use servants to take action?"
Han Yu frowned and said: "Although Fei City is small, it still has everything it should have. Therefore, with the military platform and the garrison, under normal circumstances, there is no need for the servants of the prefecture to take action, unless it is really in short supply. people."
Hearing what Han Yu said, Liu Xing subconsciously thought of two words - crocodile!
Because the servants who just ran past were holding various long weapons, it can be seen that they need to keep a certain distance from the target they are about to face; and the reason why so many people are arranged to take action can also be seen It should be difficult to control the target, and the target also has a large range of movement.
This reminded Liu Xing that more than ten years ago, a wild boar suddenly appeared on the mountain in his hometown. It often ran into the nearby fields to steal food, so the nearby villagers gathered hundreds of people to surround it. After searching the mountain in a circle, the wild boar dodged twice and was caught only when the matter was over.
So when Liu Xing saw the battle, he thought that the Hanyu crocodile had been discovered, so Governor Han led people to chase and intercept it.
"Let's go to Uncle Zhai's house to look for things first. After we find them, we can go find out what happened."
Han Yu quickened his pace as he spoke.
Soon, Liu Xing and others arrived at Uncle Zhai's house, which was the yard that Xu Bin mentioned before. But then again, the lock on the gate of this yard was exactly the same as the locks of other people around it, but the The keys are completely different.
So what is this operation?
When Liu Xing came, he thought it would be a small lock.
But this is not important. What is important is that Liu Xing got a small task at this time.
"Find useful things: Players are asked to find all the useful things in this yard!"
It's such a simple task, it doesn't even look like a simple task anymore, because not only does it not mention rewards and punishments, it also doesn't mention what the useful things are and how many there are.
Just looking for it, just looking for it.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing has a headache, because the definition of the word "useful" is too broad. After all, there is a saying called "His honey is my arsenic", so some things may be very difficult for Liu Xing. It's useful, but in Han Yu's opinion, it's a useless piece of trash.
Therefore, with such a broad setting, Liu Xing felt that even if he took a brick off the wall, it would be a useful thing for him. After all, bricks ranked very high in the martial arts weapons list.
Trouble.
Liu Xing has always hated this kind of mission with unclear meaning, because you don't know what you should do to complete the mission. After all, the final power of explanation lies in the hands of the opponent. He can say whatever he wants at this time.
But now, Liu Xing has no choice but to bite the bullet. Anyway, this task doesn't seem to have any punishment.
Fortunately, Uncle Zhai's yard was not too big, maybe only eighty square meters in total, but what surprised Liu Xing was that there was not even a place to burn a fire in the yard, let alone a kitchen.
You know, the winter in Philadelphia is quite cold, so it is difficult to even heat some hot water without making a fire. So, doesn’t Uncle Zhai plan to take a hot bath in winter?
You must know that in this martial arts module, it may be to make players feel more involved and to have a better time during this year, so the NPCs in this martial arts module are very clean. I take a bath at least once a week, so every household has a hot water kettle.
In addition, another thing that makes Liu Xing feel a little strange is that there is a stone table in the yard, with a set of tea sets also made of stone on it. But the most important thing is that these tea sets and the stone table are connected to each other. together!
Yes, this stone table and stone tea set are formed in one piece, and it looks like the carving is quite good, but the problem is that this thing looks a bit abstract, because this set of stone tea sets is laid out, so ordinary pots and pans The basin cannot be placed normally on this stone table.
In short, this thing is just a handicraft, a handicraft without any practicality. . . Of course, you can also pour some water into this tea set, then lean over and drink it slowly. After drinking half of it, you have to lick it with your tongue.
After all, at this time, there were still commercially available straws.
And that’s what Uncle Zhai did!
That's right, Liu Xing found that this set of stone tea sets had signs of use!
What kind of operation is this?
This made Liu Xing a little confused, because the practicality of this stone tea set was almost zero, so could it be that Uncle Zhai just entertained himself when he had nothing to do, and made such a tea set to play house?
If this is the case, Liu Xing can only say that Uncle Zhai is still a child at heart.
However, Liu Xing soon discovered something wrong, that is, the lid of the stone teapot was also "welded".
The main reason why Liu Xing had just concluded that this stone teapot had been used was because there was a piece of dried tea leaf at the spout of the stone teapot, and this piece of tea had been brewed at first glance.
As a result, it is now discovered that the lid of this stone teapot cannot be opened, which is even more strange. Could it be that Uncle Zhai poured the tea leaves from the spout into the teapot, soaked them in water, and then used a hook to put the tea leaves into the teapot? Plane it out?
What is this picture for?
etc! Is this brewed tea?
Although Liu Xing doesn't drink much tea in the real world, because Liu's father likes drinking tea very much, Liu Xing, who was still studying at that time, would make a cup of tea for his father before going to school, so that he could wait for his father to get up. Then you can have a cup of tea at the right temperature. . . Of course, the reason why Liu Xing did this was because his father would give him more pocket money.
Ahem, in short, Liu Xing still has some experience in making tea, so he also knows that it is best to brew this tea with hot water just out of the oven.
Judging from the dried tea leaves, Liu Xing knew that it must have been brewed with hot water, so where did Uncle Zhai get the hot water? It can't be borrowed from a neighbor's house, right?
You must know that Xu Bin has said it. He and Uncle Zhai have known each other for many years. Although they have not spoken too much, Xu Bin can still notice that the relationship between Uncle Zhai and the nearby neighbors is very ordinary, and they can only be acquainted with each other by nodding. to describe it, so Uncle Zhai is unlikely to go to the neighbor's house to borrow hot water.
So where does this hot water come from?
And Liu Xing also noticed something, that is, there were no water stains near the stone teapot, but there were some near the stone teacup.
This is a bit strange.
As we all know, pouring water into a teacup is definitely easier than pouring water into a teapot through the spout, so the position of the water stain should be changed, right?
Thinking of this, four big words suddenly popped up in Liu Xing's mind - trying to conceal the truth!
It seems there is something hidden inside this stone teapot!
Liu Xing thought for a while, then called Han Yu over, and then told all his guesses.
"Yes, this is indeed unreasonable!"
Han Yu knocked on the stone teapot, nodded and said: "This teapot is indeed empty, so there may be something hidden. After all, Uncle Zhai is not the kind of person who talks too much and will play house with himself at home!" Anyway, in my eyes, Uncle Zhai has the image of an outsider and is unlikely to do such a childish thing!"
