[Xianxia] Accompanying Longmian
Chapter 8
After Ming Yuan sat down, he ordered a pot of wine, a pot of tea and eight dishes in one go, the younger brother smiled with crooked eyebrows, but Mu Bai felt that it was too extravagant.Ming Yuan leaned against the railing disapprovingly, raised his chin downstairs, and said: "They will come to you in a while, they are old acquaintances, it's okay to treat them to a meal."
Turning around, he instructed Xiaoer again: "Remember to instruct the kitchen to fry the four vegetarian dishes with vegetable oil, and never use lard."
Mu Bai also stretched his head to look down, and seeing the two brothers Yun Yi being at a loss by those common people, he couldn't help laughing, and then asked Ming Yuan, "How did you and that Chief Yun get to know each other?"
Ming Yuan smacked his lips and said: "It's quite interesting to talk about it. Five or six years ago, when Yun went down the mountain to practice, when he came to Jiangdu, he met a scholar, saying that he was entangled by an ugly fox, and begged him for help."
Mu Bai wondered: "It is said in the book that all fox demons are beautiful in appearance, how come there are still ugly ones?"
Ming Yuan smiled and said: "It is said that human nature is inherently good, but there are still good people and bad people in this world, so everything has two sides, and we must not generalize it. If there are beautiful fox demons, there will naturally be ugly fox demons."
Mu Bai nodded, and kept these words firmly in mind, but couldn't help but feel that the ugly fox was a bit pitiful, so he asked: "Why does the fox demon pester the scholar? Is it because he likes him and wants to marry him?" ?”
Ming Yuan poured a glass of wine for himself and Mu Bai respectively, and then said: "It's not a matter of liking, as for being a husband and wife... probably only the reality of a husband and wife."
Mu Bai knew very little about the relationship between men and women, so he was confused and asked: "What is the reality of husband and wife?"
Although Ming Yuan is not a thin-skinned person, he didn't know how to explain this kind of thing to him for a while. When he was in a dilemma, he simply took out a few ingots of silver from his bosom and told those downstairs who were still haunting Brother Yunyi The peddler who refused to let go said: "Forget it, the Chunhua faction is very poor, and probably have no money to compensate you, so I will show kindness and be taken advantage of once."
After speaking, he threw the silver downstairs, everyone didn't know what he did, they just felt that there was a hard thing in their hand, and when they opened their hands, it turned out to be a piece of broken silver, they were overjoyed at the moment, and they all He bowed to Mingyuan, full of words of gratitude.
Ming Yuan waved his hand, indicating that everyone dispersed, and then smiled at Yun Yi and the two who were in a state of embarrassment: "How about the two fellow Taoists go upstairs and have a talk?"
Mu Bai was calling Xiao Er to add two sets of bowls and chopsticks, Yun Yi and Yuan Zhen went upstairs.Seeing that their clothes were ripped crookedly, Ming Yuan couldn't help but smiled and said to Yuan Zhen: "This world is different from that in Kunshan. Without money, it is difficult to move a single step. Even a chivalrous hero will have to weigh up and smash other people's things to accompany him." I can afford to accompany you, if you act like this again, your senior brother can only sell himself to raise money for you."
Yun Yi frowned while listening, but Yuan Zhen nodded sincerely, expressing that he was taught, and stepped forward to make a bow to Mu Bai, saying: "Brother Cai has already taught me a lesson, I was indeed reckless, There is nothing to stop me from speaking, I am really sorry, and I hope you can forgive me."
Mu Bai's mind is pure, he was only angered by Yuan Zhen's "monster, monster" before, once his temper passed, he didn't think about fussing about it, he just smiled and revealed the matter.After the suspicion was settled, the four of them sat around the table, chatting about the snake demon and the spiritual fruit while eating.
Yun Yi was full of desire to catch the snake demon quickly, so he went straight to the point and briefly recounted the incident: "My pure Miaoran Peak specializes in cultivating exotic flowers and herbs, and among them there is a kind of spiritual tree that is particularly precious. Watered with spiritual medicines daily, it blooms once in a hundred years, and bears fruit once in a hundred years, and each time it bears only ten trees. Counting the entire Chunhua School, there are only three such spiritual trees. After painstaking efforts, this year finally produced thirty trees. The fruits were originally intended to be used by the disciples of the sect to restore their spiritual power and strengthen their realm, but who knows that a snake demon ruined three of them."
Yuan Zhen nodded at the side and said in agreement: "This snake demon is really greedy. Not only did he eat one, but he even stole two." Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Mu Bai, and sighed , Not without regret, said: "Now one of them has also been eaten, I hope the last one can be recovered smoothly."
Ming Yuan wondered: "Your sect should have a formation to protect the mountain, and usually there will be special personnel guarding the places where spiritual plants are planted. How could you let monsters get in so carelessly?"
Yun Yi gritted his teeth and said: "According to Master, the snake demon should have just survived the thunder calamity before, and the demon power in his whole body was broken away. The mountain protection formation only guards against powerful demons, but not ordinary creatures. The demon power just let it in like this. And the disciples of Miaoran Peak were busy picking the spiritual fruit to deal with it, but they were negligent, and this caused disaster."
Mu Bai looked puzzled, and said: "Since this spiritual fruit is so rare, why did the snake demon transfer it to me, why didn't he keep it for himself?"
Yun Yi thought for a while and replied: "It should be to confuse the public and avoid being tracked. No matter who it is, as long as they eat the spirit fruit, they will emit the unique aura of the fruit. We used this aura to track down the snake demon all the way." Yes. Now it lures you to eat the spiritual fruit, and then escapes far away, once we continue to search for clues of the breath, it will be easy to make mistakes, and it can escape safely."
Yuan Zhen added: "Moreover, the spirit fruit is full of spiritual power. After taking one piece, you have to meditate and refine it for a month or two before you can absorb it all and turn it into your own use. Taking it continuously is not only not beneficial, but harmful."
Mu Bai felt depressed, "I thought it was kind, and wanted to thank me, but I didn't expect it to be a scheme." Then he told how the two of them met the snake demon, and how they saw it playing "fairy tricks". Tricks, and how to get the spirit fruit, I explained it in detail.
After hearing this, Yun Yi frowned and said: "Although this goblin was severely injured by the thunder calamity, it is difficult to recover for a while, but after all, his skills are not shallow. Even if he cannot transform into a human form, there are other heretics who can mix in the crowd and avoid searching. Such a day After a day, the breath released by the spirit fruit has gradually dissipated, how do I find it?" After speaking, he looked at Ming Yuan expectantly, he and Ming Yuan have known each other for many years, and they have slain demons together several times, knowing that he has great magic power , There are many ideas, and I can't help pinning my hopes on him.
Ming Yuan took a mouthful of fish skin and chewed it unhurriedly in his mouth. After swallowing, he said, "It's not difficult to say, I can not only tell you about the snake demon's whereabouts Clues can help you find it, but before that, you have to do one thing for me."
Yun Yi suddenly felt vigilant, sat up straight involuntarily, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Ming Yuan pointed at Mu Bai: "My friend used to live in the mountains and practiced. He didn't know anything about the world, especially about the love between men and women, but he was very curious. I have some money here. Please run some errands. In this episode Go around the city and buy some eclectic storybooks or erotic palace atlases, so as to help him get enlightened."
Yun Yi originally guessed that Ming Yuan would make things difficult for them, but he did not expect such a big problem.Thinking of their senior brothers and two cultivators, dressed in Chunhua school clothes, asking around for places to sell erotic palace pictures, not only would they lose face, but they would also greatly embarrass the Chunhua school.
Yuan Zhen also probably knew what the Spring-Palace Map was, and also sensed that this matter was inappropriate, so he hurriedly asked: "Fellow Daoist Ming Yuan, it is really difficult for our senior brothers to handle this matter, can we change things? "
Ming Yuan slid Yuan Zhen from head to toe with his eyes, and after seeing Yuan Zhen's whole body was hairy, he suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and said, "It's not impossible...you come here."
Yuan Zhen didn't understand why he stood up and walked to Ming Yuan. Ming Yuan pointed to his thigh and said with a smile, "Come on, sit on brother's lap."
Yuan Zhen also didn't feel that there was something wrong with the two men doing this, so he nodded, and sat down on Ming Yuan's lap honestly, but before his buttocks were settled, Yun Yi picked him up by his collar.
"Go back and sit down." Yun Yi scolded his junior brother with a cold face. Yuan Zhen was taken aback. Very wronged.
Yun Yi took a deep breath, and said bitterly to Ming Yuan: "Is it interesting to play tricks on us two brothers?"
Ming Yuan raised an eyebrow, and said lazily: "I used to go shopping well, but suddenly you two messed up all my good mood. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, people tend to be lazy, and I don't want to think about it." I don’t want to do anything, let alone help you.”
Yun Yi is familiar with Ming Yuan's temperament, and knows that he prefers the soft to the hard, and now he has no clue about the whereabouts of the snake demon, so he can only speak softly and ask: "Then how can I make you happy?"
Ming Yuan put down his chopsticks, and said with a look of yearning: "If there is a beautiful woman who is willing to sit on my lap, feed me wine, and take food for me, I will definitely be in a good mood."
Yun Yi gritted his teeth and said, "That's what you said." Pulling up the back of his clothes, he actually sat on Ming Yuan's lap, picked up the wine glass from the table with his backhand, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ming Yuan was startled at first, but after realizing it, he couldn't help laughing, wrapped Yun Yi's waist with one hand, grabbed his hand holding the cup with the other, and said frivolously: "Beauty, don't be in such a hurry, you have to drink slowly." It tastes good when you drink it."
Although it is already past the meal time, there are still several tables of guests eating in the restaurant. Yun can only feel that all around him are looking at him inquiringly, some are pointing at him, and some are mocking in a low voice. Frivolous, his handsome face immediately turned red like dripping blood, and Ming Yuan's hand resting on his back was as hot as a branding iron, so hot that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Ming Yuan smiled and drank the wine that Yun Yi fed, and took two more mouthfuls of vegetables he personally made, knowing that the person in his arms was about to become angry, so he stopped teasing him, and lightly supported his waist to make people stand up.Seeing that his face was usually cold and expressionless, but now his cheeks were blushing, like two smears of rouge on a delicate doll carved from white jade, the color was seductive, his heart moved, and he couldn't help it He patted his buttocks casually, and said with a smile: "The beauty is well served, I deserve a reward!"
Yun Yi was startled, and almost drew his sword out of its sheath, but the nasty guy continued: "After eating, I'll go find you the trace of the snake demon, okay?" He went back, sat back heavily on the chair, raised his hand and raised his head to drink the wine in the glass, filled it up for himself, and drank another glass.
Seeing that his senior brother poured himself several cups like this, Yuan Zhen was a little worried, but he had been taught a lesson for no reason before, and he felt depressed, so he didn't want to persuade him at this time, while Mu Bai sat on the side eating happily, He has lived in the mountains for a long time, where has he eaten such delicious food, he is not willing to put down his chopsticks, let alone pay attention to others.Only Ming Yuan stared at Yun Yi with a smile on his face, while serving wine for him and persuading him to eat vegetables, he called Xiao Er to bring another jar of Zhuyeqing.
Turning around, he instructed Xiaoer again: "Remember to instruct the kitchen to fry the four vegetarian dishes with vegetable oil, and never use lard."
Mu Bai also stretched his head to look down, and seeing the two brothers Yun Yi being at a loss by those common people, he couldn't help laughing, and then asked Ming Yuan, "How did you and that Chief Yun get to know each other?"
