The next day, at noon, the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Pass the meal~"
"When you open the pot, you will be happy, pure and satisfied ~ the door is open and the food is nourishing from the same source ~"
"First serve four dry and four fresh dishes, six snacks and three sweet bowls. Next, steam eight-treasure pig, duck stuffed with glutinous rice, chrysanthemum pot, assorted sausages, two dragons playing with pearls, phoenix spreading its wings, tiger skin rabbit meat, hibiscus deer tail, pineapple Cranes prolong the year, magpies climb branches~honey yam, sugary water chestnuts~"
"Good luck and good luck, the sun and the moon will shine~"
Lin Xiaolu watched the uncle, who was called the eunuch, announcing the names of the dishes as if he were singing in a drama. He found it interesting and asked curiously: "Uncle, why do you speak in a high-pitched voice?"
The eunuch smiled and responded respectfully: "Taoist Master Hui Lin, I have a weak body but a strong will, so I speak like this."
"Oh~"
Lin Xiaolu nodded blankly. Although he didn't quite understand the relationship between physical disability and speaking with a high-pitched voice, this did not prevent him from nodding.
Then he continued to let the maid on the side feed him.
Everyone was eating at the moment, and the handsome duck next to him glared angrily at the maid in front of him, and flapped his little wings angrily:
"Give me this duck stuffed with glutinous rice and replace it with a roast chicken! I really have no sense at all."
Across the way, Wuguo was eating vegetarian food, while Shangguan Pomegranate was eating honeyed dried fruits.
At the main seat, Jiang Ning looked at the exquisite dishes in front of her, her brows furrowed, and she said depressedly: "I tried it last night. I recited the mantra to Qianlong Hongying, but Qianlong Hongying didn't react at all."
"Don't be impatient." Shangguan Shiliu's mouth was stuffed with candied dates and he said vaguely: "When we are healed, we will go to Wuxin Temple together first. Jiang Ning, you can try slowly on the way. You won't be in a hurry."
"Yes, you can't rush this kind of thing." Lin Xiaolu said with experience while holding the Babao Pig and chewing: "I have a little brother named Dongfang Dan. He is often constipated and is very anxious every time, but it doesn't help. None, so in the end I just ignored it and let it take its course, but after a few days the thing came out on its own.”
"Hey, Lin Xiaolu, you are so disgusting." Shangguan Shiliu looked disgusted.
Jiang Ning smiled, said nothing, and responded helplessly:
"That's all we can do now. I have already issued a notice. After we leave, this country will be governed by an old prime minister in the court. If people from the Yun Gu Sect come over, they will surrender directly and become vassals without resisting."
"How good is that prime minister's character?" Shangguan asked while eating pomegranate.
"Of course he has excellent character. He has been working hard for many years. He is a good and dedicated official. He even hugged me when I was a child."
Everyone nodded after hearing this. That was indeed no problem. This was the only plan for now. After all, the head of Xiaolu had obviously left, and Jiang Ning could not really be left here to wait for death.
"Wugu, how long does it take to walk from here to Wuxin Temple?" Lin Xiaolu asked casually while eating the tiger skin and rabbit meat fed by the maid.
"If it's a carriage, it will take about half a year." Wujia responded.
"It's been so long... your temple is really far away." Lin Xiaolu muttered depressedly, but he didn't think about it any more. After all, he himself came down the mountain to seek martial arts, so it was time for him to travel around.
After the important matter was agreed upon, the few of them continued eating and chatting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time.
In the next few days, Lin Xiaolu and others lived here comfortably. They fed and drank good food every day. They ate, slept, and ate. In just a few days, Lin Xiaolu became fat. Fortunately, after he recovered a little from his injuries on the fifth day, he immediately ran out to practice martial arts, and finally lost weight before setting off.
At this point, on the morning of the fourteenth day, the group of people completely recovered from their injuries, changed into a luxury carriage specially designed for the royal family, drove three tall horses, left the vassal country, and continued to set off!
…
…
A few days later, in a certain mortal country, at night.
"The weather is getting colder. I'm going to a clothing store to buy two thicker clothes."
In an inn, Jiang Ning smiled and asked her companions who had just got off the carriage and were having dinner together: "Do you want to go with me?"
"Me, me, me!" Shangguan Shiliu raised her hand to indicate that she couldn't sit still and loved to go out and play.
"Why didn't you bring it from the palace when we set off?" Lin Xiaolu asked vaguely while chewing on the chicken leg.
"I forgot, and I didn't expect that it would suddenly get cold after arriving in the north." Jiang Ning smiled apologetically at Lin Xiaolu: "Wugu and Shangguan are both monks, and you are thick-skinned and not afraid of the cold. But I can’t.”
After saying that, she looked at the young man in front of her who was feasting and asked with a smile: "Little deer, do you want to go shopping with me?"
"I don't like to go shopping with you. I want to practice Fu She Dao again."
"Practice every day, what's the point?" Shangguan Shiliu raised his chin and complained angrily: "My dad also asks me to practice every day, but I never listen and just play at home every day."
"Everyone has his own ambitions. If I don't want to practice, I will take Wujia to visit the brothel." After saying that, Lin Xiaolu looked at Wujiu who was focused on eating steamed buns:
"Wugou! It's time to show off your real skills! Let's go to the brothel tonight. Just like last time, you invite the Bodhisattva to get on top of you, turn your whole body into dazzling gold, and then go and beat them hard! Let them See you, your golden big woowoo”
Before he finished speaking the three words "Cheng Buddhism", Jiang Ning couldn't help but cover Lin Xiaolu's mouth and said angrily: "You guys really dare to say anything, are you ashamed?"
Shangguan Shiliu on the side also blushed a little when she heard this. Although she knew that Lin Xiaolu didn't mean that, she still couldn't help but think about it.
She even has pictures in her mind!
The handsome duck next to him saw Jiang Ning covering up his boss until he screamed, and then Shangguan Shiliu was still accusing loudly. He couldn't help shaking his head and sighing:
"Heh, this is women, a group that always thinks badly of men, hey~"
After dinner, the four of them finally went to the lively and bustling streets with Jiang Ning.
In order to calm Lin Xiaolu's unhappiness, Jiang Ning bought him a big candy man to stop his mouth.
At this moment, in a dazzling ready-to-wear store, Jiang Ning picked out a slightly thick red cloak, twirled it around in front of her friends, and then asked with a blushing face: "Does it look good?"
"good."
"pretty good."
"It's so beautiful!"
"Pfft~" Jiang Ning pursed her lips and smiled, turned around and asked the store how much it cost, and then paid the silver coins quickly.
After buying the clothes and putting them into Shangguan Pomegranate's jewelry, they continued to wander in the lively streets. Not long after shopping, Lin Xiaolu, who was bored, was attracted by the craftsmen performing on the street. He stood with many onlookers and watched. of concentration.
In the field, a man with red paint on his face was performing the art of breathing fire. He held a small torch, put rosin in his mouth, and blew on the torch. Suddenly, there was a "Boom!" and the flames swept across. tumbling.
"good!"
The people watching around applauded and tipped the performer with the change in their pockets.
Lin Xiaolu's face flushed with excitement, he threw out a gold ingot without hesitation, and then said that it was a good job.
"Little deer, let's go take a look at the cotton boots. You wait for us here and don't run around."
"I know, I know, okay! Uncle, what a skill! One more!"
The crowd of onlookers was bustling, it was night again, everyone was leaning against each other, and there was an endless stream of exclamations. No one noticed that there was a short figure wearing black clothes, who was thrown out by Lin Xiaolu. When he picked up the second gold ingot, he silently approached him.
In the field, the fire-breathing craftsman held a torch and did a handsome backflip. While doing the backflip, he breathed out blazing fire again, and once again won the applause of the whole house.
And at the moment when Lin Xiaolu was excited and applauding, the short figure raised her hand and reached for his waist...
