sin of nature
Chapter 17: Privately Give and Receive
The last time Xiao Ming and Huang Li came to the capital of Ying Kingdom was decades ago, and everywhere they went has changed drastically.
A group of people rode to the outside of the city gate, looked up online, and saw the word "Dingbei" written on the towering city wall.
This place is in the north of Yingguo, hundreds of miles away from Shanyang in the south. It is summer, but the climate is not hot, which is very pleasant.
The special envoy said to several people: "It's summer, which is the best time for Dingbei. If it is later, in autumn and winter, the wind will cut the cheeks like a knife, pedestrians will be left out, and the city will be frozen."
The common people were not allowed to ride horses in the city, but the saddles and car curtains of their group were all printed with the national emblem of Yingguo—the jasmine inlaid with gold—to show that they were members of the court, and the common people from all over the world gave way.
Different from Shanyang's warm and peaceful city, Dingbei seems to be a more lively city. There are many young women in pink clothes on the street. When they see a group of people riding horses, they all stop and look forward. Yes, and exchanged glances with the person on the horse.
The special envoy smiled, turned back and said to Xiao Ming: "If the genius doctor is interested, why don't you come and have fun with me tonight? The best restaurant in Dingbei City is the Sunset Restaurant, where you can watch the best sunset. The wine is aged for many years, and at night, there is also a wonderful neon dance, which is really heaven on earth.”
Xiao Ming smiled, noncommittal.
Huan Li drove the horse to Xiao Ming's side, grabbed the corner of his clothes, and said from heart to heart: "My lord, don't go with him, let's go in a while."
Xiao Ming nodded in agreement, and looked up to see a young girl in bright yellow clothes, covering her mouth and smiling, secretly casting a glance at him.
Xiao Ming trembled unconsciously, as if recalling something bad, he turned his gaze away stiffly.Just as he was feeling uncomfortable, a hand reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Xiao Ming thought it was Huang Li who wanted to say something to him again, so he turned around, only to find that it was Kuang Yu.Before setting off, Xiao Ming injected a stream of water vapor into his black eyes, making it form an invisible water-blue film, covering the eyes, showing the same blue color as the other eye, so as not to Too much right and wrong.
"what happened?"
Kuang Yu stared straight at Xiao Ming, didn't speak but just tugged at the corner of his clothes, motionless.
? ?
Xiao Ming repeated again: "What's wrong?"
Still nothing.
Huang Li rode his horse, originally on Kuang Yu's left, but deliberately squeezed between the two of them, and slapped Kuang Yu's hand off.
"That's a secret between me and my lord! Why are you joining in the fun?"
Kuang Yu glanced at Huan Li, grabbed the corner of Xiao Ming's clothes more forcefully, and stared at Huan Li.
Huan Li hit his hand again, Kuang Yu grabbed it again, this back and forth, the two seemed to enjoy it very much, even pushed and shoved each other.
Xiao Ming, who was pulled by the corner of his clothes, was pulled back and forth by them, and almost fell off the horse several times.
Fortunately, after walking for a long time, they arrived at a very grand inn, the special envoy said "arrived" to several people, Xiao Ming immediately tore the hem of his clothes out of their hands, and got off the horse.
The inn is specially used to arrange for distinguished guests from outside. It directly belongs to the palace, and the maids and servants are all from the palace.
The special envoy settled the residences of several people, explaining that they will be arranged to enter the palace for a face-to-face meeting on the next day, so that they can rest well, and if they need it, they will mention it to the inn, and they will satisfy the requirements of several people to the greatest extent.
Before leaving, he repeatedly invited Xiao Ming to have fun, but was firmly rejected.
Without him, it's just that he really doesn't want to put Kuang Yu and Tuo Li together alone.
As soon as the special envoy left, they went to Sunset Restaurant as Huanli wished.
The third floor of the restaurant is the box, and the lower two floors are the hall, which surrounds the platform in the middle like a theater.
Several people sat down in the box on the third floor, and the view from the table below was excellent.The waiter who greeted them was very enthusiastic. While quickly reporting the names of the dishes, he introduced the characteristics of the restaurant to several people.
"You seem to be a bit unfamiliar. Have you ever been to our restaurant before... If not, let me introduce our hotel's special dishes... Besides these dishes, every There will be different performances here tonight. Tonight, we invite a juggling troupe. They were called into the palace to perform before. They are very powerful. They can breathe fire and fly into the sky! Wait for your dishes to come, almost The show is about to begin, why don't you order a few jars of wine, it would be nice to drink with this juggling... Maybe these two little brothers are drinking?"
A few people ordered a few jars of wine, and some signature dishes, and then dismissed Xiao Er.
The four people occupy one side of the square table, leaving one side facing the table below, so that they can watch juggling later.
The dishes came out soon, while drinking, Huan Li wanted to grab Kuang Yu's wine glass, but Xiao Ming gave him a glare.
"I have been with the adults for 50 years before I can drink, why can he?" Huang Li started to pick things up again.
Xiao Ming didn't give him a chance to argue at all this time, and said directly: "If you grab his wine glass again, don't drink it."
Huang Li was very dissatisfied, but didn't say anything more.
Xiao Ming, who was troubled by these two children, gradually figured out a way to deal with them. He couldn't reason at all, and directly forcing the other party to implement it was the most effective.
Finally, I had a quiet meal.
Not long after, there was finally someone on the stage.It wasn't a vaudeville troupe in fancy dress, but a middle-aged man with a round belly and the flesh on his neck shaking when he spoke.
The man stood in the middle of the table, cleared his throat, and said to everyone: "I am the shopkeeper of Rimu Restaurant. Thank you for your love and support for many years, and there is nothing in return. Yesterday when the restaurant's staff was buying ingredients, they accidentally found a top-quality deer, which can be used as the best food. I bought the ingredients I was waiting for, and bought them immediately. But there is only one deer, and it is not enough to put on the menu, so that everyone can taste it. Therefore, our restaurant decided to give this deer to one of you who came today, or a table."
As soon as the words were finished, a waiter led out a young deer and walked to the middle of the table.The deer's hair was very shiny, its limbs were strong and vigorous, but it was shivering and trembling.
The diners below all booed.
The shopkeeper pointed to the deer beside him, and said: "Today we will use the method of arm wrestling. It is fair and just. Those who are willing to challenge, we will come one by one. Whoever laughs last will win the deer. The kitchen immediately prepares the freshest and most delicious venison for the victor. How would you like it?"
The diners all applauded.
Soon, the guy next to him moved a table and two stools, and the competition began.
Xiao Ming looked at the cowering deer at the side, his heart moved, Kuang Yu at the side also kept looking at the deer, eager to try.
Huan Li at the side glanced at the two of them, and said: "What's the rush, you will suffer a loss if you go up now, it would be easy to wait until there is only one person left to challenge."
Both of them felt that this was indeed reasonable, so they waited silently.
Huan Li looked at the wall of the box with a painting hanging behind Xiao Ming, and grabbed Xiao Ming's clothes again.
The latter turned his face to look at the other party in doubt, "?"
Huan Li said this to Xiao Ming heart-to-heart, raising his head from time to time to glance at the arm wrestling that was in full swing.
Kuang Yu watched the arm wrestling seriously, but didn't notice the two who were secretly exchanging information.
Finally, there was only one person on the stage, who was sitting on the bench with a flushed face, and his hands were powerlessly resting on the table.
Huan Li drank a glass of wine indifferently, and said lightly, "This match is really full of flaws.... He's already done it for a few rounds, and he's already exhausted, but how can he compare? Let alone an adult , even that little brat can beat him."
The little kid who was named turned his head and stared at him very unfriendlyly, warning clearly in his eyes - don't try to start the 340th war in vain.
Seeing that the others were almost there, Xiao Ming got up and walked over, raising his hand to signal the shopkeeper.
At this time, he heard the friction of tables and chairs in the box next door, and the shopkeeper on the stage cast his gaze over.
"Oh—there is one more over there, oh two challengers, please come here."
A moment later, a slender figure in black appeared on the stage.
Xiao Ming followed behind him step by step.
The man's eyes and eyebrows are always indifferent and alienated, but sometimes they contain just the right amount of care. His facial features are exquisite, but when he is not smiling, there is a vague danger of approaching. feel.
That man was Yao Guang, the Seventh Prince of Qingyue Kingdom.
Huang Li had just discovered the other party and told Xiao Ming about it.
"This man's behavior is very weird and weird. Your lord must never deal with him again."
Xiao Ming didn't respond, and didn't quite agree with Huang Li's thoughts.He recalled some moments when he was with Yao Guang. The other party never made him look bad, nor did he harm him. On the contrary, he helped him many times. If he wanted to harm him, he should have done it long ago. Woolen cloth.
The figure in front of him stopped suddenly, and Xiao Ming almost bumped into that person's back.
Yao Guang turned his head, looked at Xiao Ming behind him, showed a smile, and said very sincerely: "Genius doctor, we meet again."
Xiao Ming looked at the kind of tenderness in those eyes, and almost thought that he was delusional.Although he felt that the other party had no ill intentions towards him, he was a little elusive as to what this person was thinking, so he asked softly, "Why is Your Highness here?"
Yao Guang pointed to the man in front of him who was about to wrestle with him, and said, "Explain to the genius doctor later."
Xiao Ming nodded clearly, but he couldn't help slandering this person in his heart.
So... as His Royal Highness Qingyue, why does he have to win a deer by arm wrestling... Doesn't he have as much as he wants... Besides, he doesn't seem to need to eat Bar....
During the few days when Yao Guang and Vice General Zhang sent them back to Yingguo, he found that the other party didn't eat much at all.
Just when Xiao Ming couldn't figure it out, the person on the stage who was already winning had already lost.
It is indeed expected...
Not to mention that this person is a bit exhausted, even if he is full of energy, he may not be able to defeat Yao Guang... The opponent is not an ordinary person.
So... which category does Yaoguang belong to?
god?Impossible...Although he hasn't been to the God Realm for a long time, many gods are no longer recognized...But Jin Buhuan will not fail to recognize him.
Then only those who practice sorcery, or...
Just as Xiao Ming was thinking wildly, the shopkeeper had already led Xiao Ming to sit down at the arm-wrestling table.
He stretched out his arm very naturally, leaned on the table, stretched out his hand to hold the other's hand, and felt the warm palm of the other.
He raised his eyes to look at each other, and the two of them looked at each other across a table.
Xiao Ming's heart moved, and he avoided the other party's direct gaze a little unnaturally.
what happened......
Even a little afraid to look at each other.
