In the end, Ningxia had no choice but to temporarily accept this little tail. Now we can only take one step at a time.
The contract is done and the boat is done, what else can be done?
Whether the blame was taken actively or passively, and no matter whose responsibility it was, she had already taken over. Just watch.
Moreover, Ningxia is also very curious about the treasures and precious things that the other party promised to give her in the future.
So this man is staying with her for now, but let's see what he wants to do.
Because both of them suffered severe losses and were seriously injured, Ningxia stayed in the inn to adjust his breathing for nearly half a month after landing.
This guy Zhong Huan, if he didn't carry such a terrible identity, would actually be a good travel companion. At least this guy is quiet, very considerate, and doesn't cause trouble.
In the past half month, he had been staying with her in the inn peacefully, and he had not shown any deviant behavior. Very worry-free.
And he was obedient enough. If you ask him to call him Lord Xia, he won't call him master, and if he pretends to be his brother, he won't be a retainer.
Although Ning Xia's original intention was not to make him a real slave, in her opinion, this person could only be transferred here temporarily and would be let go in the future. But since he relies on her and wants her help, he must follow her arrangements.
Ningxia does not need a helper above her. In short, Chonghuan's role is played very well, and it greatly facilitates Ningxia's walking in this strange city.
Today, half a month later, the brother and sister sitting in the hall having a drink now have a general understanding of Lianwu City.
Ningxia picked up the wine bowl and saluted the young man opposite. The other party fit into the role very naturally, accepting the bowl of wine like a real brother, and even put a chopstick of gourd silk into Ningxia's bowl.
The person sitting next to him was talking excitedly, slapping the table and stepping on the stools, as if this restaurant was their home venue.
The surrounding monks all frowned, but since it was a busy lunch market, there was no extra space to exchange seats. Some monks choose to eat quickly and leave the table immediately when they are done. Only a handful choose to stay where they are.
They are the few guests from Ningxia who have stayed at the same table. Originally she wanted to leave, but when she heard a certain topic, she really wanted to ask the waiter to pay the bill and dropped her hand again.
I didn't expect it... I couldn't find anything even if I walked through iron shoes, and it didn't take any effort to get it. Just when I was about to inquire, it was immediately delivered to my door.
Ning Xia looked at the young man across from him, and as expected, saw solemnity in his eyes.
The guys at the next table didn't know whether they were just being drunk and making trouble, or they were really confident and had no scruples in what they said. The voice was so loud that Ningxia could probably hear it even if he passed by the door.
"...Brothers...come on, let's do it. If you become successful in the future, please support my brother..."
"...What are you talking about, Brother Liang. We are the ones who want you to take care of us. If we get into the hands of that greedy wolf in the future, I will ask you to take care of me if anything happens in the future..."
"How can it be so simple? It cost a lot of money to get a place in Greed to the Wolf's Mace, but it's just a humble one. I'm really ashamed of myself. I'm not as good as everyone else. My cultivation is extraordinary, and I will definitely shine in the future."
"...Then why are you still participating in the sword competition? Didn't you say that the quota has been determined?" Someone asked curiously.
"Oh, this is what they asked for. Because all the members of Greedy Wolf's Mace were selected from the sword competition. If I want to enter it legitimately, I must also participate in the competition..."
"... Don't worry, it's just a formality. My brother has already said hello to you, so he'll just go for a walk and come back and wait for the job."
"...That's right, we are worrying too much. Your big family loves you and will definitely take care of you. I'm so envious..."
"Brother Wang, what do you have to worry about? Isn't this shabby? I don't think any of us have to worry, but you don't need to worry. That's what you call really hiding something like that. There is no need to worry about this or that..."
"...When did Brother Wang hide something good and I didn't know about it?" The taciturn guy next to him was also shocked.
The person involved held up the tea cup as if to cover up, so his expression could not be clearly seen. But looking at the crooked look on his eyebrows, he was probably proud.
The person next to him became the spokesperson, filling in for him: "You don't know, of course, I just happened to know. Let me tell you, a few days ago, the Wang family bought a valuable treasure with a lot of money."
"With it, Brother Wang will surely have a place in this sword competition."
"...Oh? What is it? Why don't you bring it out so that you brothers can have some eyesight?"
This time the person involved finally spoke up: "Everyone, to be honest, my brother did get a rare thing a few days ago. However, because this thing is very special and wild and untamed, I can't bring it out, lest I risk it. It hurts you all.”
"...Huh? It can't be that one, can it? You actually got that kind of thing. I heard that those who are greedy for money can be caught very hard, so don't cause trouble."
"It seems that Brother He has guessed what I am talking about, and he seems to be an expert. However, that thing is really annoying. It has been making a lot of noise and hurting people at will since I got it. But he is also really It’s so precious that people don’t dare to take action.”
"Brother Wang, just be patient and it will be fine. After a while, he won't be able to make a fuss even if he wants to. By then, won't he become a plaything in your hands?"
"...Ahahaha, it seems that Brother He is really an expert, and he can tell the truth. To be honest with me, have you really never bought such a precious thing?"
The man who was called Brother He shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Where am I? He's just my cousin. His stuff made a lot of noise before, but it wasn't the same after that."
"So, brother Wang, don't worry. He is just a breathing object, a stupid donkey who can't control his own destiny. Why bother? Just bear with him for a while. You can't escape your fate."
"...Brother He's words make sense. It makes sense... Come, let me toast you..."
There was a large table full of people, some looked understanding, but most people looked confused. But they asked several times but were ignored by neither serious nor serious, so they had no choice but to drink dissatisfiedly and continue to guess.
A few of them looked thoughtful, as if they had thought of something.
"Ah! I know what you are talking about. Fortunately, I thought so hard, it's like guessing charades. It turns out that Jiannuo wuwuwu..." The man shouted in surprise, but unfortunately he was stopped by the person next to him before he could finish his sentence. Cover your mouth.
The person who covered his mouth was sweating profusely. He had almost woken up from the wine and was no longer in the chaos he had just been. Oh my God, what are they doing? If it comes out, they'll all be involved.
God, he regretted following these stupid people out. And I didn't pay attention at first, but I was half drunk, and I was in a daze along the way.
Fortunately, when he heard such words while half asleep, he was instantly frightened and stopped him in time.
