At night, under the cold moonlight, Lin Xiaolu walked all the way back to the small courtyard of Wu Zun's family. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Shangguan Hamigua chasing Shangguan Pineapple and beating him. The sound of killing was loud. The entire small courtyard was filled with screams like pigs being killed.
In the small courtyard at the moment, Tong'er was punching vigorously, Shuaishuai Ya was holding the Book of Changes and studying it, and Shangguan Shiliu was lying barefoot on the rocking chair, curled up into a big shrimp and taking a nap.
Lin Xiaolu looked around, talked to a few people for a while, and then went back to his room to practice.
He was going to Datang tomorrow and there wasn't much time to practice along the way, so he wanted to practice more.
A night of silence
The next day, it was sunny
When the boy woke up, the first thing he saw was Xiao Yu'er sitting beside the bed.
Seeing that Lin Xiaolu woke up, Xiao Yuer immediately gave him a big bear hug, and then asked expectantly: "Brother, when will we set off?"
Xiao Yu'er rarely gets to go out to play, so she is very excited and can't wait.
Lin Xiaolu sat up, stretched, and then rubbed his eyes sleepily:
"I will set off after breakfast in a while. Xiao Yu'er, please tell Senior Sister Miaoxin."
"Yes, I've said it before." Xiao Yu'er said with a smile: "Senior sister told me to have fun, and then I have to listen to my brother and not run around blindly."
Lin Xiaolu smiled and pinched his sister's round face, then got out of bed and put on his shoes, and then carried his sister out as usual.
It was still very early at this time. None of the three Shangguan brothers and sisters had gotten up. Only Tong'er was warming up outside the hospital.
Lin Xiaolu immediately invited his little apprentice to have breakfast with him, and carried his sister and Tong'er behind his back, chatting and laughing all the way to the dining hall.
Although Tong'er didn't say it, in her heart, her little master had always been a good brother to her sister and a good master to herself.
After having a cheerful breakfast, Lin Xiaolu went to see Senior Sister Miaoxin and Ah Yi, and then continued to carry his sister back to his small courtyard. Then he asked Tong'er and Shuai Shuaiya to look after the house, and then went down the mountain with Shangguan Shiliu and the others. .
The carriage was still the same one that Lin Xiaolu had used when he and Ye Qingluan went to Kunlun together, and the horses were the ones he was familiar with.
I have to say that after staying in Emei for a long time, Ma Zi is indeed different from before. Not only is he more humane, but his endurance and strength have also made a qualitative leap. One horse can carry a carriage with five people and run fast. It's so solid.
"Drive! Drive!"
On the bed of the carriage, Lin Xiaolu swung the reins and drove the horse happily. Next to him sat Shangguan Pineapple, who was wiping his nosebleed.
"Mazi, you are really different from the past. I think back then you couldn't run even after a day of running during the day, and you had to have me carry you on my back at night. Now your endurance is really strong. The mare who will follow you in the future will definitely be blessed. You are like this If you go down, you will become a sperm sooner or later.”
Lin Xiaolu praised the black horse, and the horse raised its head and shouted in response, saying: "What you said is absolutely right."
Just as one person and one horse were engaging in cross-racial communication, Shangguan Pineapple, who was wiping a nosebleed at the side, suddenly asked:
"Brother Lu, my sister hit me again this morning. Do you want to hear why she hit me this time?"
"Because of what?"
Shangguan Boluo wiped away the bleeding nose and complained softly:
"She said it was because I might make her angry in two days, so she hit me in advance as a precaution."
Lin Xiaolu:......
On the speeding carriage, Lin Xiaolu turned his head and glanced at Shangguan Pineapple, with pity in his eyes.
"Your sister must love you very much, right?"
"Well, that really hurt,"
On the carriage board, Shangguan Pineapple swung the big gold necklace behind his neck, then looked at Lin Xiaolu who was driving the horse and continued to ask:
"Brother Lu, what are Tong'er's hobbies? If I want to pursue her, do you think I have a chance?"
"Yes." Lin Xiaolu looked at the thin Shangguan Pineapple and said:
"You need to train your muscles first."
Shangguan Pineapple scratched his head in embarrassment:
"How can I, a cultivator of immortality, train my muscles?"
"Then can you drink Tong'er?" Lin Xiaolu continued to ask.
Shangguan Pineapple:......
He had a drink with Tian Tong'er yesterday, and he was like a wine god. He was no match for him.
"Look, you're so weak, you're not a man, and you're stupid. It's a shame that you can catch up with my apprentice if you don't think about making progress." Lin Xiaolu said disdainfully:
"Otherwise, you can defeat Tong'er one-on-one. In that case, she might still look up to you."
After saying that, Lin Xiaolu shook the reins again and shouted "Drive"
On the road in the wild mountains and forests, the carriage was speeding along, and the two teenagers were talking to each other. After running around for most of the day, they arrived in Dai Viet.
This is the country where Lin Xiaolu recruited disciples with Tang Xin, Chen Nianyun, Yu Chuchu, and Dongfang Dan when he was a child, so he has a deep impression of this place.
Originally, everyone was out to play, so the group was not in a hurry. When night came, Lin Xiaolu drove a carriage into a city leisurely, and then found an inn to stay and prepare to have something to eat.
"Xiao Yu'er, come up."
"Um."
Beside the carriage, Xiao Yu'er stepped on the wooden board and jumped on Lin Xiaolu's back, letting out a "giggle" laugh. Shangguan Shiliu on the side also watched with joy.
Shangguan Hamigua saw him and greeted him:
"Where is Brother Shabi? I want to carry it too!"
Shangguan Pineapple ran over helplessly and bent down with his back to the girl. Then Shangguan Hamigua also jumped up and jumped on Shangguan Pineapple's back.
The group of people laughed and laughed in front of the inn for a while, and then entered the inn.
It was dinner time, and there were quite a lot of people in the inn. The hall was full of diners. Lin Xiaolu carried his sister on his back, sat her down, and then loudly called the waiter, and started ordering skillfully:
"A pot of pork stewed vermicelli, eight roast ducks on the stove, other steamed sea bass, beggar's chicken, winter melon and pork ribs soup. Come on. Oh, by the way, this beef with soy sauce, twenty portions. What do you have in the store? Wine?”
The waiter who hurriedly memorized the name of the dish recommended: "Sir, you are really discerning. Our shop is small, but the wine is famous throughout Dai Viet. This monkey brew... I wonder if you have heard of it?"
Several young people were stunned, but seeing their expressions, the waiter immediately understood and said with a smile:
"This monkey brew is made by us. Monkeys in the mountains usually collect fruits in tree holes. It was originally used to store food for the winter. But if there is no shortage of food for the winter in the season, the monkeys will forget that they have stored a hole in the tree. Baiguo, then the Baiguo in this hole will gradually ferment, and then become Baiguo wine.”
He introduced: "The shopkeeper's cousin works in the mountains, so he can always get some monkey brew every year. Customers who have tasted it are full of praise, but the price, hehe, is a little more expensive~"
"Expensive?" Lin Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, then patted Shangguan Pineapple.
"Pineapple! Throw money!"
"Okay Brother Lu!"
Shangguan Boluo flicked his sleeves without hesitation, and Na Jie immediately threw out pieces of gold bricks like a magic trick, and they fell to the ground with a plop, leaving the waiter in the shop dumbfounded.
"Take out all the monkey stuffing in your store! I will stay with Brother Lu until he gets drunk today!"
"Yes! We won't come back until we get drunk!" Shangguan Pomegranate shouted like crazy.
Shangguan Hamigua looked at the three people, his little white eyes flickering in and out. Xiao Yu'er didn't react at all. Although she had never drank wine, she was quite curious about what the wine brewed by monkeys would taste like.
It didn't take long for the food and wine to arrive one by one, especially the wine. The waiter directly brought out all the monkey wine in the store, making it a large closed wine jar that was half a person tall, attracting the attention of other diners in the store.
When the wine jar was placed on the table, Lin Xiaolu uncorked the wine in a decent manner. The next moment, a smell of wine and fruity aroma filled the air instantly, and Lin Xiaolu's eyes lit up.
The diners in the inn were also attracted and laughed:
"Kids, you guys drank so much, don't waste it."
The provocative words were spoken. Before Lin Xiaolu could reply, Shangguan Shiliu, who was completely crazy, stepped on the table, raised his head and hummed:
"Waste? With my brother and Lu Zaizi here, whoever is not convinced can come and compete!"
