Along the way from the capital to Liangzhou, it was indispensable to have a meal and drink the dew along the way.
But ever since Xiaoying tried Lin Ji's craftsmanship, she had to hunt two rabbits every day along the way.
Lin Ji didn't mind the trouble. Although he was tired of eating, eating something was better than drinking the northwest wind.
Not long after, Xiaoying walked into the yard carrying several kilograms of beef.
Lin Ji also set up the barbecue grill that was already in the kitchen with ease.
After asking Xiaoying to make a fire and burn charcoal, he opened the cellar in the yard. There was still a lot of wine. It could be seen that even though Lu Cong drank several jars, he did not dare to drink more.
This is the wine he brewed himself in Qingyang County back then. It has a high alcohol content and excellent quality.
I was too anxious to take it with me when I left, but now that I'm back, I naturally put it away.
After a while, he came up carrying two jars of wine.
Gradually, the aroma of meat spreads out.
About a quarter of an hour later, when the barbecue on the oven was almost ready, just when Lin Ji was about to greet Xiaoying to eat, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open.
A young man who was only about eighteen or nineteen years old walked into the courtyard in a swaggering manner. He first looked at Lin Ji and Xiaoying, and then took out a piece of silver from his arms.
"This is the rent money. You can keep the yard and leave." The young man threw the money to Lin Ji.
Lin Ji reached out and caught the silver.
"Good guy, is this dilapidated yard worth twenty taels? How long will my friend stay here?" Lin Ji asked.
"Just stay for two days, get out!" The young man's patience was obviously not good, and his tone was already a bit harsh.
Just as he finished speaking, another man and woman walked in.
The man looks middle-aged, but the woman is in her youth and looks not much older than a young person.
"Why, twenty taels of silver is not enough?" the middle-aged man said impatiently, "This small place is full of greedy people, Hui'er."
The young man understood and took out another ten taels of silver and threw it to Lin Ji.
"Is this enough?"
This time it was Xiaoying who caught the silver and then looked at Lin Ji.
Lin Ji grinned.
"There are only two side rooms in my small courtyard. She and I have one room each. There are no other vacant rooms."
With that said, Lin Ji threw the money back casually, and Xiaoying did the same.
"Besides, I see that some of them are well-dressed, spend a lot of money, and they are probably respectable people. Why do they insist on staying in my small courtyard instead of an inn? My place has not been inhabited for several years, and it is very dirty."
The young man frowned and said coldly: "There is so much nonsense!"
ever.
He suddenly drew his sword and pointed it at Lin Ji, the threat in his eyes was extremely strong.
If Lin Ji dares to ink again, he will kill someone with his sword.
But at this moment, the girl behind him spoke.
"Xiao Hui, don't be impulsive!" The girl stepped forward to stop Xiao Hui, and then slightly cupped her hands towards Lin Ji.
"Sir, several high-end inns in this county are already full. Your hotel is in a good location, so we came in to take a look. Sorry, we have no place to go so we are here... Sir, he should be a local
I think we have somewhere to go at night, so why not let us stay in this house for a few days?"
Before Lin Ji could speak, Xiaoying on the side suddenly snorted coldly.
"Oh, finally here comes someone who can speak human language."
As soon as these words came out, the young man named Xiaohui immediately said angrily: "What did you say?"
Xiaoying curled her lips, glanced at the middle-aged man, and then sneered: "I said you are such a bastard, your mouth is full of excrement, and my girl's great appetite has been disturbed by you!"
A cold light flashed.
In just a moment, the long sword in the young man's hand was already in front of Xiaoying.
"Xiaohui, don't hurt anyone!" the girl's voice immediately sounded.
But then, she saw the long sword in Xiao Hui's hand being grasped lightly by the other party, and then he exerted force in his hand.
Katsa.
There was a crisp sound, and the sword split in half.
Xiao Hui was repulsed by the force coming from the broken sword. After screaming, he covered his hands and stepped aside.
By the time he stabilized his steps, his right hand was already dripping with blood.
Xiaoying, the initiator of all this, curled her lips.
"It's really unlucky to encounter rubbish at night."
Lin Ji on the side originally wanted to say something, but when he heard Xiaoying's words, he couldn't help laughing.
"Pfft, restrain yourself."
"Uncle Master, they were the ones who caused trouble first."
"Then you should restrain yourself. Bullying a junior in the third realm is nothing."
"No matter what his cultivation level is, he still dares to be so arrogant if he can't defeat me. He deserves to be punished."
"That's true."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ji picked up a skewer of roasted pork, bit the root of the skewer and then stroked it with his teeth. The whole skewer fell into his mouth.
"Eat it, it will get old if you bake it again."
"okay."
By the time Lin Ji picked up the second skewer of barbecue, the three people just now had disappeared.
The door is also closed.
"Uncle Master, is that middle-aged man just now a Japanese monk?" Xiaoying asked as she glanced at the closed door.
"That's right."
"You actually left without taking action?"
"He dares!"
"Did you stop him?"
"No, I just looked at him."
"Uncle Master is mighty."
"Stop flattering."
...
"Daddy, that bitch..."
"Shut up!" Kong Zhe interrupted his son's voice with a sharp shout.
Then, he looked back at the small courtyard that was already in the distance, with a bit of fear in his eyes.
After confirming that the other party had no intention of chasing him out, Kong Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Look at the daughter beside you.
"Ru'er, is what you just said true?" Kong Zhe asked cautiously.
Kong Ru nodded slightly.
"Dad, if that woman hadn't taken action, I would have been deceived."
At this time, Kong Ru's voice was not calm either.
"That's all for that woman. She is just a night wanderer for the first time. Although her body is extremely strong and there seems to be something else in her body, it is just a night wanderer after all."
"But the one I thought was a mortal at first..."
"Is there really a peak level of cultivation in Japan?"
"Maybe it's not just that. Grandpa is also at the top of the Japanese game, but I feel that the power of the soul is far less than him."
"The physical body is strong, and the spiritual light on the body is shining. This is a sign of having great supernatural powers."
"There is a faint hint of the power of the stars being involved in his actions. I think it is also a very powerful method."
Having said this, Kong Ru paused.
Kong Zhe sighed: "I don't know who that person is. His physical body is strong, his soul is more solid than the old man, and he has several great magical powers. How could I not recognize such a person in Liangzhou..."
"Dad, that's from the official family." Kong Ru said.
"Guan family? Supervisor Tiansi?"
"Yes, he is connected to the fate of the Qin Dynasty, and..."
"and?"
Kong Ru took a deep breath and looked back.
It was obvious that the three of them had gone very far.
"The killing intent in that man was almost solid. Just looking at him made me feel as if I had fallen into an ice cave... If possible, I never want to see him again."
