Xiaoqing left the small ruined temple with great joy. Xie Changyuan also picked up a broken iron pot to eat meat. As if two kilograms was not enough, he went back and cut a few kilograms of pork and threw it into the pot to cook.
He touched his belly and felt that he had eaten more and more recently.
To practice Zen Buddhism and maintain your golden body, the fullness of your own Qi and blood is very important, and the most direct way to replenish Qi and blood is to eat meat.
Nowadays, Xie Changyuan's appetite has reached a staggering level. If he wanted to, he could eat half a pig in one meal.
The meat you eat not only provides food and clothing, but also converts it into a full body of qi and blood to prepare for the next squandering.
After almost eating, Xie Changyuan stood up again and walked out of the small ruined temple, finding a few thick branches and a bunch of twigs.
He came back and processed the remaining pork, then built a simple wooden frame to hang the meat on, covered the bottom with twigs, and lit it on fire.
"call!"
The flames rose, and the burning branches produced swirling smoke, which slowly covered and smoky the pork.
Although winter is approaching and raw meat is not easy to rot, considering the long journey ahead, Xie Changyuan plans to prepare some bacon.
Nowadays, it is impossible to find pine and cypress wood suitable for bacon, and the conditions do not allow it, so Xie Changyuan just found some firewood as a substitute.
The smoke rose and the fire subsided. Xie Changyuan added a handful of firewood and calculated the time in his mind. He estimated that Xiaoqing should have returned to Bianliang City.
When I looked again, he was already ten feet away.
He was as light as a swallow and as fast as lightning, and flew towards Bianliang City silently. Without disturbing anyone, he passed by the foot of the city and quietly entered Bianliang City.
…
At night, there is still singing and dancing in the Sigui Tower. From time to time, the loud shouts of drunken men can be heard inside, as well as the laughter of women, and the faint sound of spring can be heard in the inner rooms.
At this time, Yuening Oiran escorted Xu An out of Guiyuan. The latter's face was wrapped in bandages, and his exposed skin was very pale. There was a trace of gloom between his eyebrows, and he was no longer as handsome as before.
Ever since the talented scholar Xu was beaten up in public by a one-eyed and one-armed man, the reputation of copying poems spread rapidly, and the once famous literary figure was completely reduced to a street rat.
In Bianliang City, everyone who disliked him or had once admired him now treated him coldly, and often made fun of him when they met.
Sure enough, when passing by the hall, someone saw the frail Xu Dacaizi and immediately squeezed out sarcastic words from between his teeth.
"Hoho? Isn't this the great talent Xu An? Why did he come out after just one cup of tea? If your body is so weak, don't go out to whore. Stay at home to recuperate, in case someone dies in our Yuening Oiran.
It would be bad if you put it on your belly and make it difficult for others to find benefactors in the future!"
A young man in a mink coat sneered loudly, deliberately letting everyone at the next table hear his remark.
Everyone laughed when they heard this, and even the prostitutes who were held in their arms also covered their mouths and chuckled. Although they all looked down on Xu An, they were now even more happy to see Yuening Oiran suffer the same fate.
They were all jealous of Yue Ning's beauty and status, and Yue Ning's oiran was indeed ungrateful. Xu An's reputation was ruined, but she still stayed with him and refused to accept any money when he entered the house.
To the brothel girls, Yue Ning's infatuation with Xu An is nothing but a joke!
"snort!"
Xu An snorted angrily, glanced around coldly, and walked away from the door without saying a word, his steps a little frivolous.
During this period, Courtesan Yuening tried to help him with a worried look on her face, but was pushed away by the latter.
Yue Ning's behavior hurt his self-esteem to some extent, especially after the fall. Xu An's sexual ability also declined so much that he couldn't hold on for a cup of tea. During this period, he even refused to have sex several times, even though he finally got it.
The matter was done, but Xu An's pride as a man could not tolerate it.
At this time, any comfort Yue Ning gave him was an insult.
When Xu An walked out of Sigui Tower with a cold face, he staggered down the steps without even looking at Yuening Oiran, and walked towards the other side of the street alone.
Only Yu Yuening stood there worriedly, watching his back disappear completely before turning back.
…
"Xie Changyuan..."
On the street, Xu An had a sinister look on his face. Thinking of the shame of that day, he almost hated Xie Changyuan with itch.
There will be another day during the day, when he brought the Jin Yiwei to the door to find trouble but failed, and ended up offending the daughters of two high-ranking officials, Gao Wenqing and Wang Moting.
Since his rise to fame, he has never suffered such a blow, and his level of decline has ruined his originally boundless future.
All this is because of that man named Xie Changyuan.
"I will skin you sooner or later." He gritted his teeth, not caring at all that he had gone the wrong way.
After missing the main road, the streets he was walking on began to be less crowded, and Xu An was thinking about how to continue to cause trouble for Xie Changyuan.
Suddenly, a tall figure fell from the sky, giving Xu An no chance to react.
The latter didn't even see who the incoming person was, and was kicked out by the person. He was like a kite with a broken string flying into an alley, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead for a moment.
Xie Changyuan remained silent and prepared to go in for an autopsy, but at this moment, a figure appeared not far in front of him.
This person had his hair combed into a double bun, with an ordinary appearance and a dull expression. However, he was wearing a cloak from the Twelve Divine Palaces. He made no sound when he appeared, but he seemed to have been here all along, watching the moment that just happened.
In the past, Liang Boshan was the head of the family, and Lu Heng was the most powerful!
