Chapter 10: A Hundred Years Later Chapter 1 The Restaurant Boss
The days are like running water, gurgling by.
A hundred years can change a lot. For many mortals in the Xia world, the name 'Dongbo Snow Eagle' has become a legend. There are even some biographical novels about 'Dongbo Snow Eagle' being circulated! Even if
For the extraordinary beings of the Xia clan... I haven't seen Dongbo Snow Eagle for a hundred years, and my memory has begun to become distant.
Dongbo Snow Eagle and his wife traveled around the world of the Xia Clan. Only a few close friends knew his whereabouts. Ordinary Chaofan had no idea where he was.
The world of the Xia Clan is located in a beautiful ancient city "Baijiang City" in the southeast of the mainland.
There is a restaurant in Baijiang City that has been open for more than ten years, called Dongyu Restaurant. The owners of the restaurant are a young couple. The man seems to be sick and pale, but he treats the guests very well. His wife is quite nice.
Although it is beautiful, it is rarely seen in restaurants.
"The spring in Baijiang City is so beautiful, and the scenery is really different from that of Yishui City." In a corner of the second floor of the restaurant, a man in white was sitting with a paintbrush, looking through the window intoxicated at the scenery outside.
, there is a street outside, and there is a river next to the street. There are weeping willows on both sides of the river. Thousands of weeping willow branches are flying, and there are plum blossoms blooming, and some other unknown flowers are blooming.
The sunshine in the south is more colorful, shining on the green trees and red flowers, and the colors are so colorful.
Dongbo Snow Eagle has lived in Baijiang City for fifteen years, but he still likes this city very much.
These years...
He and Yu Jingqiu have long been to every city in the entire Xia world, whether it is a county or a small town, and have lived in some favorite places for a long time. They have lived in desert oases, on the prairie, in
They have also lived on the tops of mountains for a long time, and also on islands. There are countless delicious foods that they both love most!
For example, when they opened this restaurant in Baijiang City, they hired two chefs they liked very much and gave them extremely high conditions. The two chefs cooked very few dishes every day, except for serving Dongbo Snow Eagle.
Apart from the husband and wife, there are only a few outsiders. Most of them are cooked by their apprentices. Even so, Dongyu Restaurant has gained quite a reputation in Baijiang City over the past ten years.
"Well, the most beautiful thing about Baijiang City is spring. If you miss it, it will be gone." Dongbo Snow Eagle sat there and muttered, pressing the paper with one hand, and holding a paintbrush in the other hand, painting on the paper. The paintbrush was like a knife.
, with precise and delicate strokes, the bark and ravine of the weeping willow on the roadside were clearly painted.
"Boss, the painting is really good. Please sell it to me for ten gold coins." A silver-haired old man walked next to him. The old man looked at the painting with fascination in his eyes.
"One hundred gold coins, the lower price will not be sold." Dongbo Xueying muttered casually, "I say old enemy, please don't keep tormenting me. Don't you know my rules for selling paintings? All small paintings of this kind are sold for one hundred gold coins.
If the gold coin is lower than the price, we won’t sell it.”
"You haven't finished the painting yet." The silver-haired old man muttered, "We have known each other for more than ten years, and your painting is too expensive. One hundred gold coins can buy a star-breaking crossbow, and you can even hire a group of people.
Knight, look, how many paintings have you sold in so many years? For more than ten years, I remember selling only a handful, but you have painted thousands of paintings! And even if you have some famous people who are famous all over the world,
A painting usually only costs one hundred to one thousand gold coins."
"I'm not famous, but I'm an old enemy... In a word, buy it or not!" Dongbo Xueying glanced at the old man with a grin.
He can see it.
This old man really likes his paintings. Dongbo Xueying asked himself, in terms of painting skills and artistic conception, he is definitely no less than those of the "big people" among mortals! Of course, his paintings have not been packaged and boasted, and they have no reputation at all.
But I was just having fun.
Moreover, each painting contains some of Dongbo Snow Eagle’s insights into marksmanship. If you have reached the master level of marksmanship with this painting, you may be able to understand it. The paintings I have sold over the years have sold a total of
There were five paintings, three of which were bought by Palace Master Chen, Master He Shan and Yuan Qing respectively. The other two were bought by a master of marksmanship and a rich young man. The rich young man was also his good friend.
.
As a restaurant owner myself, I have made many friends, and this ‘old enemy’ is one of them! He is just too stingy! Of course, it may also be that the price for his paintings is too high.
"Huh!" Dongbo Xueying suddenly hummed, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his fingers trembled. Suddenly, there was an extra stroke on the painting, and the painting was ruined.
"Alas." Dongbo Snow Eagle stood up, picked it up and tore it apart.
"No," the silver-haired old man said, "It's okay to give this to me."
But Dongbo Snow Eagle tore it into pieces in two or three strokes: "Old enemy, if you haven't painted it well, it's impossible to keep it."
It's like practicing shooting and pursuing perfection.
Painting is the same as marksmanship. If you don't paint well, you would rather destroy it than leave it behind.
"It's really heartbreaking." The silver-haired old man, 'Old Chou', shook his head.
Dongbo Snow Eagle smiled.
When you and Jingqiu move out of Baijiang City, you will give a painting to your old enemy as a gift. But now, everything must be done according to the rules. Don't take away a painting without paying a hundred gold coins.
Dong Bo Xueying stood up and walked towards the stairs. He frowned slightly and said to himself: "The effect of hundreds of hardships is getting weaker and weaker!"
After taking it for over a hundred years, the 'Ghost Six Resentment Voodoo' in the body has gradually adapted, and the effect has become worse and worse after a hundred times of suffering! Even if I have just taken it now, the suppressive effect is very weak and the pain is terrible. It will not take long for the drug to be fully effective.
No more, I have to take medicine once an hour. It can be said that I am tortured by terrible pain every moment of the day.
Dongbo Snow Eagle had the urge to drink the antidote again and again, knowing that the effect was very weak, but it would be better after all. But he still resisted!
"I finally understand why the records mentioned that many people who were poisoned could not live for more than a hundred years. It is easy to carry it once, but it is really difficult to carry it day and night." Dongbo Snow Eagle secretly said, "But
It can be regarded as tempering my spiritual will. I am afraid that in the entire mortal world, I can be at the forefront spiritually, right?"
From the beginning when the pain was so severe that I couldn't control my body and would roll over, to now, the minute muscles of my body occasionally twitch out of control under the most extreme pain.
This is all suppressed by will.
"Master." The man in gray robe who was leaning on the railing and drinking leisurely came over immediately and whispered.
"Swordsman, don't worry about me." Dongbo Xueying said and walked downstairs.
The swordsman is the fifth of the "Five Shadows" of the gods' warriors.
Dong Bo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu were walking outside and needed help for some trivial matters, so they brought along the weakest White Mist Monkey and Swordsman!
…
Go down the stairs, follow the back door of the restaurant, and enter the courtyard of a mansion.
This is where Dong Bo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu have lived for more than ten years.
"drink!"
"ha!"
A crisp sound sounded.
With a smile on his face, Dongbo Snow Eagle entered a martial arts training ground. There was a group of people practicing marksmanship in the training ground. The youngest one was probably only six or seven years old, and the marksmanship and dance were a bit interesting. The oldest ones were in their twenties.
Yes, it's very impressive when used.
"Master." "Master."
After Dongbo Snow Eagle arrived, they all stopped and shouted.
"You continue to ignore me." Dongbo Xueying smiled. Because he teaches marksmanship for free, some children from the surrounding neighborhoods will come to learn marksmanship! However, he only teaches basic marksmanship. Even if some of them have practiced a few times,
He is very diligent and hard-working. Although he teaches the Dou Qi method, it seems to be a very ordinary Dou Qi method on the surface. And so far, he has only taught five disciples the Dou Qi method.
Therefore, there have never been many people who come here to learn marksmanship.
I'm afraid many neighbors think... this place is for babysitting?
"Fog Lei." Dongbo Snow Eagle suddenly said.
"Wow." Immediately, a white-haired old man arrived at the martial arts training ground almost instantly, and walked over immediately. This white-haired old man... was the transformation of the White Mist Ape. Mist thunder can turn into mist, gather and disperse, and can also change.
It can be transformed into various shapes. When walking outside, it is better to naturally transform into a human form.
"Master." The white-haired old man said respectfully. The teenagers who were practicing guns were not surprised at all, because they knew that this was Butler Bai of the mansion! I heard he was a star-level master!
"Hurry up and get ready, Palace Master Chen is here." Dong Bo Xueying said.
"Yes." The white-haired old man immediately retreated.
