Chapter 7 Teenagers (2)
"Did you think about it in three days? How do you take revenge?"
Looking at the boy who appeared in his room for some reason, Xiao Xia really didn't have the energy to think about how he came from. Today he drew a total of 93 dust-proof curses. Even if this is only the lowest level, worth only five cents of silver and generally no one will buy a lower-grade talisman, it requires concentration to draw it. Now he feels that his feet are on cotton, two large weights weighing ten kilograms on his eyelids, and one hundred kilograms of stinky bean dregs were poured into his head. He can still insist on walking back to the inn and sleeping loudly without falling head-on in the ditch on the side of the road. It is a miracle among miracles.
"I don't want to take revenge, I just want to sleep now." Xiao Xia floated towards the other side of the bed step by step and answered honestly.
"...you..." This answer seemed to surprise the young man named Tang Qingxia very much. He tried hard to widen his phoenix eyes, which was not big, and looked at Xiaoxia. It seemed that he never expected that there would be such an incredible thing in the world. "Then Mr. Zeng was so kind and revenge. You cured his daughter and saved the marriage for him, but he accused the official and soaked you in a cesspool. Such a great humiliation, don't you want to take revenge?"
If you want to tell him that this mortal pit is actually a good thing that is beneficial to practice, physical and mental health, and tonify the Taoist heart, you may not be able to explain it clearly. Moreover, seeing that this young man looks clearly and lacks the state of mind and nature of a person who practices Taoism, he probably cannot understand that profound and profound meaning, so Xiao Xia just shook his head and said, "I don't want to."
"...It turns out that he is a coward who dares not even take revenge." The young man named Tang Qing chuckled gently like his name and sneered.
This was really a useless provocation. Xiao Xia asked reluctantly: "Do you have a grudge with Mr. Zeng?"
"I don't know each other before. I just can't stand you cowards like you who dare not even take revenge."
"Well. If you can't stand it, don't watch it. I'm going to sleep." Xiaoxia fell on the bed and closed her eyes.
"Believe it or not, I will kill you?" The voice seemed to have a sense of murderous intent.
"Finish." After a barely mumbled, Xiao Xia heard his snoring. A vague pain came from her butt. I don't know if it was a knife, a punch or a kick, or something. Xiao Xia was too lazy to think about it, so she plunged into the boundless darkness.
Xiaoxia was awakened by the fragrance. At first he thought it was a dream, with the fragrance of Mapo tofu, the fragrance of double-cooked meat, and the fragrance of fish-scented shredded meat... and he remembered these smells very clearly. Four years ago, he followed his master to Shuzhou and stood at the door of Shuxiangju's kitchen for a whole hour, chewing on the white steamed buns in his hand while smelling the fragrance. Whenever a waiter walked past the food, he would hurry up and take a look and then eat a bite of steamed buns. In the end, the chef in the kitchen invited him to eat half a plate of leftover double-cooked meat. He still remembered the fragrance, and he had an extra bite of goodwill towards Shuzhou people.
When he tried to imagine a few plates of delicacies in his dream, he woke up. Then he saw that the table in his room was filled with red and green, fresh and famous Shuzhou dishes. The fragrance he just smelled was not a dream. The boy named Tang Qing chuckled was sitting at the table eating a piece of refried pork with delicious taste. He glanced at Xiao Xia who was getting up on the bed with his eyes and said slowly: "I didn't expect that this chef in Jingzhou could make our Shuzhou flavor so authentic, and it would be a waste of fifty taels of silver..."
Xiao Xia jumped out of the bed. He didn't know how long he had slept, but it had been for at least half a day, and even before he went to bed, he had almost never eaten anything. He sat at the table, looked at Tang Qing and said, "This is the room I rented, room number C, one or two silver dollars a day, right?"
The boy didn't seem to expect that he would ask this first, and was stunned, frowned and replied: "Yes."
"Then you must have worked hard to put these things in my room to treat me to eat. Thank you very much."
In fact, the dishes on the table obviously did not mean to treat him to eat, because there were no extra bowls and chopsticks on the table, but this was not a problem for Xiao Xia. He took out two blank talismans and drew two solid talismans as fast as possible, and then put them into his hand a pair of paper chopsticks. Then he immediately reached out to grab a large chopstick and shredded meat into his mouth.
After at least four or five mouthfuls of vegetables, Xiao Xia took a breath after having time. Then she looked at Tang Qingxia, who was sitting opposite him. The thin young man was looking at him with a cold face, with a rather bad expression. Xiao Xia quickly coughed and pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Don't be polite, I can't finish so many dishes alone."
"Do you know that my surname is Tang?" the young man asked in a cold voice.
"I know, you said it." Xiao Xia nodded.
"Do you know I'm from Shuzhou?" The boy's face was as cold as his voice.
"Yeah. You can tell." Xiao Xia nodded. The Shuzhou flavor of these dishes is very strong. His tongue is already numb and his forehead is already sweating. It is not like Shuzhou people who cannot eat this flavor. Although the dishes in some places in Jingzhou in Yuzhou are as spicy as they are, they do not have the numbness.
And when you look closer, you will find that the boy's skin is delicate and fair, which is not even worse than that of ordinary girls. Only Shuzhou's rainy, foggy, and sunny climate without any wind and sand can develop such skin. The boy's figure is also a typical southerner.
The boy stared at him, as if he was trying to find something he wanted from his face, but after looking at it for a while, he didn't get anything at all, and then he slowly spoke, "I'm from Tangjiabao."
He was sitting and his body was shorter than Xiao Xia, but the young man named Tang Qingxia's eyes were a look down at this time, and his voice was as if he could determine life and death with a word. But Xiao Xia sounded a little strange, so he nodded: "Yes."
"Don't you know Tangjiabao?" The boy was surprised and strange, as if he heard that someone didn't know the sun and the moon.
"Of course I know." Xiao Xia also felt that the young man was very strange. "Shuzhou Tangmen, Tangjiabao, and there are very few people in the world who don't know about it."
Shuzhou Tangmen, Tangjiabao. Very few people in the world don’t know this name. This is one of the most famous families in the world. It has dominated Shuzhou for hundreds of years. It is even said that Shuzhou can border the Xidi Xiongliu tribe but has been peaceful because Shuzhou has a Tangmen.
"Then you dare to sit here and eat my food? You don't know that as long as I want, there are at least a hundred ways to kill you?"
The boy seemed to have murderous aura on his face and eyes. The history of the sentence "I'd rather fight to live the King of Hell, don't mess with the Tangmen Lang" is almost as long as the Tang Family Fort. In the world, the Tang Family is not the most famous, powerful, and strong, but it is definitely the most difficult to provoke and the most fearful. People will stay away from the beasts such as lions and tigers, take a detour, or send food to ensure safety, but the most feared is the poisonous snake lurking in the shadows and rushing out at any time. The vicious, vicious and vicious children of the Tang Family are as famous as the poison of the Tang Family.
Xiao Xia's chopsticks also paused. The boy was right. There were far more than a hundred kinds of poisons that could poison people. However, since I had eaten them all, it seemed useless to say them now. So he immediately continued to poke a large elbow into his mouth, and said while eating: "But you and I have no complaints in the future, no grudges in the near future, why do you want my life? I really want my life? I just had to kill me when I was asleep before, why did I have to spend so much money to get such a table of dishes to poison me?"
The boy looked over with a cold face and squinted his eyes. Xiaoxia felt that he seemed a little angry, and he tried hard to pretend to be murderous. However, such a boy who seemed to be younger than him, might be only thirteen or fourteen years old, and still as beautiful as a girl, could not be able to pretend to be murderous.
But others kept watching this, but he kept eating it. Xiao Xia felt a little embarrassed. He ate two more bites of food, put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth, coughed, straightened his face, and said to the young man with fists: "Thank you Brother Tang for your kind hospitality. Brother Tang is anxious for the righteousness. He wants to draw his sword to help him when he sees injustice. It is really admirable. He is worthy of being a famous disciple of the Tang clan. But he is a practitioner of Taoism, who is dedicated to comprehending the great way of heaven and earth. The grudges and personal honors and disgraces in the world are just breeze on the face, and things are gone without traces. The hatred of soaking in the mortal pit is real..."
The boy sighed long, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. I don’t know if it was too difficult to see the person like this. His waist, which had been straight, softened, leaned on the back of the chair, and finally said lightly in a voice that was not so difficult: "Okay. Even if you really don’t want to take revenge, there is something you must want."
"Oh? What is it?" Xiao Xia picked up the chopsticks again.
"Silver. Didn't you go there for the reward of 500 taels of silver that Mr. Zeng paid? Don't talk about the nonsense that you practitioners are compassionate and save all living beings."
"Of course it's. Five hundred taels of silver is a lot." Xiao Xia did not hide at all. Of course he went there for the money. He urgently needed those hundreds of taels recently. "But Brother Tang said that saving sentient beings is the great wish of Buddhist saints. What we practitioners of Taoism seek is the realm of real people who regard all things as straw dogs without desire and without desire. However, in this world of practice, silver is an indispensable thing. Buddhism calls it the convenient method..."
The boy waved his hand impatiently: "I'm not in the mood to listen to your nonsense. In a word, I'll give you five hundred taels, and help me with something, would you like?"
Xiao Xia couldn't help but lit up his eyes. In the past three days, he drew two hundred talismans with his master. He was as tired as a dead dog. In total, he only earned dozens of taels of silver. The five hundred taels sounded really touching. However, he also knew how much he had. The things that the Tang family members needed their help were not simple. He thought for a while and said, "I am willing, of course, I am willing, but Brother Tang might as well talk about it first. I am a weak person, and I may not be able to do anything big, timid, and I cannot do anything bad. If I am caught afterwards, it would be fine, but I would be so ruthless, or so on, but I might as well kill myself for money and other things..."
"A timid person. No wonder he doesn't even dare to take revenge." The young man snorted coldly with disdain. "On the day of the wedding, you sneak into Mr. Zeng's mansion with me. At that time, you go and lobby Miss Zeng and let her elope with you. In this way, you will not only avenge Mr. Zeng's revenge on your cesspool, but I will also give you a big red envelope of 500 taels of silver. What else do you want to do if you are so easy and easy to earn money and sex?"
"This...this..." Xiao Xia was stunned, and a piece of cooked meat on her mouth fell on the table, her head was chaotic. It was hard to imagine that there would be such a good thing in this world, such a good person, and this young man was a terrified Tang family. "You...re you really don't know that old Mr. Zeng?"
"Of course, I arrived in Jiashui County, which I only arrived three days ago, and of course I don't know him."
"Then...why are you doing this..."
"We are doing things in the Tang Sect, and you ordinary people in the world naturally cannot understand it." The young man smiled coldly. When he said the word "Tang Sect", his eyes were so bright and so proud, as if it was the greatest and most amazing place in the world.
Xiao Xia also felt that way. If anyone else dared to tell him how gloomy and terrifying the aristocratic family entrenched in Shuzhou would be, he would definitely smash it with a silver head.
Of course, it is five hundred taels per ingot of silver. If there is any.
ps: I delayed the update two days ago, so I feel a little embarrassed to be late.
