Chapter two hundred and sixty third at a loss
Should we go or stay? Several people couldn't decide at the moment. Where should we go to find Shen Lang? Stay. If Shen Lang doesn't come, or won't come at all, it's more likely that he will come and leave. If he continues to stay, This makes no sense at all!
"Let's go!" The beggar made a decision after slamming his fist on the table!
Scholar Lu Chengfeng first agreed: "This is the only way now!"
Lan Mei didn't want to leave in her heart. In her heart, she always felt that Shen Lang was here and had successfully entered the Dream Valley. As for the method he used, she still couldn't guess. But she knew that she simply relied on I feel like just letting everyone wait here forever is unrealistic and irresponsible! At this point, I can only leave here like the beggar said.
Although Zhuge Qing knew that the enemy who killed her father was in the valley, but with her own abilities, let alone taking revenge, she would lose her life before even waiting for the valley! It is never too late for a gentleman to seek revenge in ten years, and she believed that there would be a chance.
In this way, the four people agreed to leave early tomorrow morning. As for the four people to go, they did not agree. Since the beggar came out, he wanted to walk around. But the scholar, Lu Chengfeng, wanted to go back to Liulin.
Lan Meigui is determined to find Shen Lang. Since he is not here, his most likely possibility is to go to Jiangnan and find Shangguan Qingyi. Even if he doesn't go now, as long as he waits there for Shen Lang, he will definitely go.
Zhuge Qing identified Lan Rose at this time, and she would follow her wherever she went.
The four of them chatted for a while, then each got up and went back to their rooms to rest so they could go on their way tomorrow!
But the weather was not kind. The next day, before dawn, it began to drizzle. Although the rain was not heavy, it kept falling, which was a test for pedestrians who were about to go out!
Looking at the patter of rain outside the window, the beggar sighed: "It's true that no one cares about the rain! Depending on the situation, it will have to rain all day long!"
Scholar Lu Chengfeng said with emotion: "Since we can't leave, then we will stay for the whole day and wait for the rain to stop before we leave."
The beggar said: "A day like this is perfect for drinking!" As he said this, he went out and quickly came back with a jar of wine.
Scholar Lu Chengfeng glanced at the wine jar that the beggar had put down and said, "Then let's get drunk today!"
The beggar looked at Lan Meigui and Zhuge Qing, who were sitting beside them with frowning faces, and said, "Would you two like to have a drink?"
Lan Meigui shook her head: "Masters, you drink! Qing'er and I won't disturb you!" After saying that, she pulled Zhuge Qing back to their room.
"Come and do it!" The beggar filled two large bowls of wine, then picked up one bowl and drank up the other.
Scholar Lu Chengfeng did not show any weakness and immediately drank a bowl of wine and said: "This wine is good!"
"Pure grain wine!" the beggar added.
Scholar Lu Chengfeng said: "Sorghum brew!"
The beggar nodded: "Not bad!"
Just like that, on this rainy day, two people sat in the room and drank happily!
Lan Meigui and Zhuge Qing returned to the room, and Lan Meigui sat in front of the window and stared at the rain outside in a daze! She kept shouting in her heart: "Shen Lang, where are you now?"
Seeing Lan Rose sitting there in a daze, Zhuge Qing felt sad thinking about the changes in her family!
At this moment, Shen Lang stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the rain outside the cave with his brows furrowed, thinking about his next move!
"What are you thinking about?" Yu Wenzhi walked over from the cave and couldn't help but ask when she saw Shen Lang staring at the drizzle outside in a daze!
Shen Lang said: "I'm wondering if I should go out on such a day."
Yu Wenzhi was a little surprised and said: "Why do you want to go out?"
Shen Lang said: "I want to try my luck!"
Yu Wenzhi said with a mocking look on his face: "Although the rain is not very heavy, over time it will still wet people's clothes and turn them into drowned rats. You are not looking for a job, but want to be miserable and beg for mercy! But I tell you this It’s not like in the Central Plains where you can get sympathy just by being miserable! This is Dream Valley, and people here won’t give you charity or sympathy just because you feel sorry for you!”
Shen Lang said: "I didn't think of selling my misery to gain sympathy, I just wanted to find a job and that's all!"
Yu Wenzhi said: "But others won't think so. They must think you did all this on purpose!"
Shen Lang smiled bitterly and said: "According to what you say, I can only stay in the cave now and I can't go out?"
Yu Wenzhi said: "The legs are on you. If you want to go there, it's your right and no one can stop you!" After saying this, Yu Wenzhi turned around and yawned and went back to the cave. Such a day was the most suitable for sleeping.
Shen Lang hesitated for a moment, but finally he walked out of the cave and into the rain. The drizzle on his face felt like a chill! But he didn't care and walked towards the valley!
Shen Lang did not go to the valley in the rain to find work, but wanted to understand the situation in Dream Valley as soon as possible and find Shangguan Ling's whereabouts!
Because of the rain, not a single person could be seen on the streets in the valley. Shen Lang seemed to be walking casually, but in fact he was checking the surroundings and keeping the structure and surrounding conditions of each house in mind. He had decided that he could not I'm just sitting there waiting for death, so I'll take action tonight and go to the palace of Xuanyuan Zhi in the Demon Palace to see if there is any news!
When Xuanyuan was walking, he saw an old man walking out of a courtyard holding an oilcloth umbrella. This man was walking in a hurry. Due to the slippery road, he accidentally slipped and fell to the ground, and the umbrella in his hand also dropped. On the ground. Out of sympathy, Shen Lang hurriedly stepped forward to help the other person up, and then picked up the umbrella and handed it to the other person!
"Thank you!" The other party thanked Shen Lang.
"It's okay, be careful when walking on slippery days in the rain!" Shen Lang told the other party to be careful. Just when he was about to leave, the other party suddenly stopped him.
"Is there anything else, old man?" Shen Lang turned around and looked at him with a smile.
The old man looked Shen Lang up and down and said, "Young man, you don't stay at home on this rainy day, and you don't hold an umbrella when you go out. You're already wet. You've been out for a long time, right?"
Shen Lang smiled bitterly and said: "I have such a good eye, I have been out for more than an hour because I wanted to try my luck!"
The old man looked at Shen Lang with a strange expression: "Try your luck?"
Shen Lang nodded: "Yes, try your luck and see if you can meet someone hired by the family who wants to find a job!"
"You mean you're looking for a job?" The old man looked at Shen Lang excitedly.
Shen Lang didn't know why the other party was so excited but nodded listlessly: "Yes!"
The old man continued to ask: "Young man, whose house did you work for before?"
Shen Lang replied: "I was in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion before, and I was just kicked out two days ago."
The old man said with a look of sudden realization: "You are the one who said in the Demon Palace a few days ago that he was ordered by the Valley Master to contact Miss Nangong and was eventually kicked out. Your name is Lu..."
