"Brother Jiang, who is Xiaohong?" The girl's crisp voice echoed.
"Xiaohong?"
Jiang Yan was a little confused. The black wooden door in front of him had been tightly closed. Xiao He'er just asked this question and immediately closed the door and ran back into the house.
"Xiaohong..."
Jiang Yan recited something softly and thought about it carefully. Then, his face slowly stiffened. In his memory last night, the name Xiaohong appeared.
Well, it happened many times.
"I...don't talk a lot of strange things in my sleep, right?" Jiang Yan's face turned dark now. He looked at the closed black door and shook his head slightly. Xiao He'er had already run away, and he couldn't ask more questions.
Bang!
Next door to Jiang Yan, two tall men walked out carrying hammers.
"Hey, Jiang Yan, are you awake?"
"Brother Zhang, sixth brother." Jiang Yan turned around and smiled, saying hello to the two of them.
As the two approached, Zhang Si said, "How much did you drink last night, and you actually slept directly at the gate? If Xiao He'er hadn't discovered it in time, it was so cold at night, and you would have been sick today."
It turned out that he was misunderstood and fell asleep after drinking.
Jiang Yan didn't want to explain, so he followed Zhang Si's words and admitted, "Last night, I did have a small gathering with my friends. Unexpectedly, I drank a little more, which made Fourth Brother laugh."
"Why are you laughing at me?" Zhang Si shook his head vigorously, with a hint of inquiry on his face. He spoke in a lower voice, "Jiang Yan, tell the truth, did you go drink wine last night?"
"Yes." Jiang Yan admitted generously.
When Zhang Si and Zhang Liu heard this, their eyes immediately opened with envy. They had been thinking about going to a brothel to drink wine ten years ago.
Every time they pass by a building like Hanxiang Garden, they will be attracted by the delicate figures at the door.
It's a pity... I heard that drinking once costs too much.
They couldn't bear it.
"Isn't the girl there beautiful?"
"beautiful!"
"Then why didn't you stay overnight?"
"Uh..." Jiang Yan was stunned, and then he whispered, "Fourth brother, I just went to have a drink and listen to music. I am a serious person."
His face was solemn.
Zhang Si and Zhang Liu didn't believe him at all, with contempt on their faces.
You went to drink wine, you are so serious.
We are serious people, okay? We have been to brothels hundreds of times without ever entering.
"Heh..." Jiang Yan smiled, a little doubtful, "You two eldest brothers, have you never been to a flower bar?"
"Then you are wrong."
Zhang Siyi raised his head, with memories in his eyes, "I also... go there often."
"Do you know Cuiyu House? We are the best brothel on Lunan Street. The jade beads in it are my sweetheart!"
Jade beads?
Yuzhu again, you always use the same name when you tell lies.
Last time Zong Yan said that Yuzhu was his sweetheart, but in the end, he couldn't even recognize the girl.
Squeak!
The black door opened again, and Xiao He'er walked out gently. She lowered her head and said hello to Zhang Si and Zhang Liu in a soft voice.
"Brother Zhang, fourth brother, sixth brother Zhang, good morning."
Then, she took a step forward and came to Jiang Yan. She opened her slender hands and handed over a small cloth bag, "Jiang...Brother Jiang, there are wood flower seeds in this. Smell more to refresh yourself."
From now on...you should drink less from now on. "
Her face was red and she was a little shy. After saying this, she immediately ran back.
"This..." Jiang Yan was speechless. He gently picked up the small cloth bag and sniffed it, and a hint of fragrance entered his nose.
My spirits are indeed much better.
"This kid is really thoughtful." Jiang Yan carefully put the small cloth bag into his pocket.
"Jiang Yan, Xiao He'er is pretty good, isn't he?"
"Well, he is very good, very well-behaved and very sensible."
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you quickly collect the money and give Lao Cui a gift order?" Zhang Si teased.
Place a gift order?
Jiang Yan shook his head and laughed, "Brother Zhang, what nonsense are you talking about? How old am I and how old is Xiao He'er? How could you have such strange thoughts?
In my eyes, Xiao He'er is just a child. "
"You're the one who's weird. What's wrong with Xiao He'er? In Guihua City, girls of fifteen or sixteen can almost get married.
Besides, Xiao He'er doesn't hate you. "
Jiang Yan raised his hand and stopped the topic.
In his mind, a girl aged fifteen or sixteen was just a half-grown child, yet Zhang Si was actually discussing marriage with him in such a serious manner...
He really couldn't listen anymore, otherwise his outlook would be shattered.
Fifteen or sixteen? Jiang Yan shook his head. He was still about twenty-five or six years old. Of course, he could be older.
However, Zhang Si's words reminded him that the women here are all precocious and he should pay attention to his words and deeds in the future.
Really, I treat you like a child, and you actually want to marry me? Sleep with me?
Let’s get down to business.
"Fourth brother, I've almost finished the things I asked you to do a while ago."
When I came to Guihua City and bought this small yard, my neighbor happened to be a blacksmith with a simple character.
He immediately placed an order and asked the two brothers to melt his broadsword and create a new weapon.
The broadsword is easy to use, but it is not convenient to carry.
His ideal weapon should be one of moderate size but overweight.
After paying enough deposit, the two brothers also took over Jiang Yan's job.
"If you wait a few more days, there are still one or two special ores before it can be officially forged."
"Okay, no rush."
The three of them chatted casually for a few more words and then separated.
After watching the two figures turn the corner and disappear, Jiang Yan slowly walked into the small courtyard.
A quarter of an hour later.
Jiang Yan walked out after packing up.
laugh!
Jiang Yan stretched out his finger, and a trace of white inner energy visible to the naked eye lingered.
"If you put it that way, I am also a body refining realm warrior now."
At this moment, in addition to packing some belongings, Jiang Yan also upgraded his skills to a higher level.
The weirdness value was enough, and Jiang Yan directly upgraded the newly obtained Qingsong Yiyi True Skill to the fourth level.
There is no way to rise.
Theoretically speaking, Jiang Yan is now a peak body-refining realm warrior, and the energy in his body is as surging as the river and the sea.
Moreover, he also felt that his body had become slightly stronger.
Originally, practicing this body-refining technique required making various training postures and nourishing it with certain precious medicinal materials, in order to slowly improve the martial arts.
But after the rough improvement of the modifier, Jiang Yan didn't do anything and just perfected the technique.
What about standing like a green pine, a tumbler in the wind, and about eating more ginseng, deer antler, Ganoderma lucidum, and other precious medicinal materials that he didn't even know about.
None of these are needed now, as long as the weird value is enough.
Just one click to upgrade.
"Sure enough, if you put in the effort, you will get something. Isn't it just for this moment that I work hard to earn weird points?"
Jiang Yan's steps were calm and calm, and his improvement in cultivation was his greatest confidence. At this moment, his whole body's temperament became slightly calmer.
"Try protecting the inner energy again!" He thought silently in his mind.
He has long been envious of the body-refining warrior's protective energy.
As long as the strength of this thing does not exceed its endurance limit, it is simply a 360-degree defense with no blind spots.
And, bring your own counterattack.
