The sun was shining brightly outside the window. Lu Sheng was sitting on the second floor of the restaurant. Looking down through the open window, there was a candy vendor on the spacious street. His craftsmanship was very good. There were many people lining up around him, waiting to give to the children.
Hook up candy people.
The customers queuing up were under the window, occupying almost half of the field of view. There was a lot of noise outside, including the cries of many children.
This is the town of Busaga, a real border town. It is very desolate, so a little wandering sugar seller, just because his skills are better, has attracted many people to queue up with their children to buy.
When Lu Sheng went upstairs, he saw that among the guests coming and going, most of them were hunters and townspeople. There were not many real Jianghu people. Most of them were unscrupulous little gangsters. Even Jianghu people
Just ordinary people who haven't even touched the edges of their body.
At this time, the business on the second floor of the restaurant was booming, most of the tables were already full, and many people were still drinking and ordering drinks.
Suddenly, the waiter from the first floor came up again, leading a young man with a fair face and a thin figure up slowly.
"Sir, there are only the last two places left. How about you compete with others and have a meal together?"
The young man frowned and glanced at the second floor. When he saw the location pointed by the waiter, his frown suddenly deepened.
That seat was right next to the dining table where the drinking orders were being arranged. There was a loud noise, and from time to time there was sudden laughter.
"Then let me share a table." He said calmly. His eyes began to wander around the second floor. His eyes were focused on the clean and tidy table tops.
Suddenly, when his eyes swept over the dining table where Lu Sheng was sitting, his eyes moved slightly.
"I'll just sit there." He pointed at Lu Sheng's table and smiled.
"Wait a moment, I'll go ask that guest first." The waiter immediately apologized with a grimace. After all, that person looked like a desperado.
"It's okay, it should be okay." The young man's face just barely had the words "I'm very curious about Jianghu people" on his face. A pair of big eyes kept scanning the handle of the knife at Lu Sheng's waist.
The waiter ran to Lu Sheng and asked in a low voice. After receiving a positive reply, he ran back and replied to the young man.
"The customer said it was no problem."
"That's good."
The waiter led the young man to Lu Sheng's table and sat down slowly. He quickly brought the menu and after ordering, the young man looked at Lu Sheng frequently from the corner of his eye.
After a while, he ate some cold dishes and took the initiative to say hello.
"Brother, thank you very much." He clasped his fists towards Lu Sheng, but his movements were extremely irregular, even more aggressive than the group of young masters from the Chen family that Lu Sheng had seen before.
"It doesn't matter." Lu Sheng smiled.
The two of them looked at each other without saying anything, but after the young man's order was served, Lu Sheng added a few more dishes and a pot of Bichen wine.
"I'm sorry, sir, the Bichen wine has been sold out...only the bottle ordered by this guest is left." The waiter said to Lu Sheng apologetically when serving the food.
"Sold out?" Lu Sheng was stunned. This Bichen wine tasted like a wine-flavored juice with chestnuts and various fruits added. In this world where there was no distillation technology to produce high-alcohol wine, he would treat this kind of wine as fruit juice.
drink.
"What about other similar wines? Are there any?" Lu Sheng liked this Bichen wine.
The waiter suddenly became even more helpless. "I'm sorry, all other fruit wines are sold out, only rice wine is left."
"Yellow wine?" Lu Sheng shook his head slightly.
"It seems that my brother is also of the same mind. It doesn't matter. Let's drink this pot together."
The young man was also stunned, and then said calmly.
"I have been drinking Bichen wine since I was a child. I always come to Shehualou every month and order a pot of Bichen wine. There has been no exception for so many years."
Lu Sheng glanced at this man in surprise.
"Thank you very much." He smiled and said, "This wine tastes really good."
"Actually, brother, I have never tasted another kind of Jiulong snake wine. It is more mellow and fragrant. It is much stronger and more delicious than Bichen wine." The young man smiled and said, "Speaking of which, it depends on brother.
You must be dressed as a stranger, right? When you go out, you will always encounter some strange people and strange things. If you don't mind, please tell me a few strange things, and use them as drinks."
He paused and then laughed at himself: "My greatest interest in life is to listen to all kinds of weird and strange things. I just regret that I don't have the opportunity to travel and experience it myself. I can only place my hope on others."
"I know a lot about strange things." It was also the first time for Lu Sheng to meet such a person. He could feel that this person's wishes were very pure and there was no trace of forgery.
"Brother, please serve the food and drinks quickly!" The young man's eyes suddenly lit up.
His biggest hobby is to listen to stories. Once he discovers any outsider in the town, he will find an opportunity to come to him for advice, hoping that the other person will tell him all kinds of anecdotes.
Lu Sheng was not polite, and while drinking wine, he casually chatted with this person. He knew more than a few strange things, they were countless. In the Great Song Dynasty and Great Yin, there were all kinds of weird ghosts and strange things everywhere.
It can be done three days and three nights without repetition.
At this moment, the young man was like sparks lighting firewood, discussing with Lu Sheng one by one the ghosts in the stories he told. He was extremely knowledgeable, and he could actually identify the types of ghosts that even Lu Sheng didn't know about.
Ability, and general appearance rules.
Lu Sheng just thought it was a coincidence at first, but after waiting for the follow-up, this young man could actually tell the origin and appearance of a special monster he had encountered before.
This shocked him. He gradually began to have an in-depth conversation with the young man.
"Brother Mei, where did you know these things? It's as clear and logical as if you've actually seen it." Lu Sheng couldn't help but ask.
This young man also exchanged names with Lu Sheng at this time. His surname was Mei and his given name was Youjiang. He was about twenty-four years old and lived in this town.
"I feel ashamed to say that I have been collecting fragments of ancient books since I was a child. I am addicted to books and I also like to make friends. I collect anecdotes and strange things from everywhere. Although the things I know are detailed, I am not sure whether they really exist."
"Brother Youjiang, why should you belittle yourself?" Lu Sheng shook his head, his heart was shaken. He had deliberately tested it once before, and what Mei Youjiang said was exactly the same as what he knew and had seen.
"That's not the case. Brother Lu doesn't understand the situation in my family." Mei Youjiang looked helpless when he talked about this. "My father at home didn't like me making friends with good guys everywhere, so I collected fragments of ancient books. I was happy with it at first, but later
The number is increasing, and it consumes too much of the family's wealth, so I can't support it... My family says that I lose my ambition by playing with things... But if a person does not pursue one or two ideals in his life, then his life will be different from those walking dead.
?”
Lu Sheng also shook his head.
"My talents are destined to be useful. Brother Mei, don't be discouraged. You have extensive knowledge and knowledge, and you will be able to use it one day. It's just that you don't have the chance now."
"I am born with talents that will be useful... Good sentences. Brother, your literary talent is good. It's just a good time to drink with poetry. Come on!" Mei Youjiang picked up the wine glass, touched it with Lu Sheng, and drank it all in one gulp.
The two chatted for a while, and Mei Youjiang was talking about the origin of a strange monster that could understand all kinds of changes, speak good words, and understand things.
Another group of people came up at the corner of the stairs of the restaurant. They were all dressed in gray cloth servant clothes. The one at the head was a woman with willow eyebrows and a cherry mouth. Her cheeks were as beautiful as peach blossoms, her chest was tall and majestic, and she had a rope tied around her waist.
The red belt and a pair of long legs wrapped in tight-fitting dark trousers perfectly outline the entire curve of the woman's legs to her buttocks.
As soon as she came up, she stared at Mei Youjiang who was talking.
"Third sister! You didn't go to greet my second uncle when he came, and you went to the restaurant all day long to hang out. If my mother knew that you were here again to collect rumors, I would beat you to death when I got back." This woman was very unusual as soon as she opened her mouth.
She is shrewd and gives off an aggressive aura. It can be seen that she is used to making the final decision at home.
"Sister!?" When Mei Youjiang saw this woman, his expression suddenly changed, and his voice finally returned to its original crisp and delicate texture. "Brother Lu and I hit it off when we first met, and we talked about the three-day demon. You are really disappointing. Here comes the second uncle.
What does it have to do with me? I have to take the initiative to greet her. I am a daughter, and my mother is not ashamed." As she spoke, she stood up, told Lu Sheng, and faced the woman helplessly.
"Let's go, let's go back quickly. As soon as my mother saw that you were gone, she knew that you must have come here. This is the day you will never forget to escape from the dust. As long as no one is seen, you must have come here to drink."
The woman was equally helpless, reaching out and tapping Mei Youjiang's forehead hard.
"You, you, don't make me angry all the time. My family is worried about you."
In a hurry, Mei Youjiang had no choice but to be dragged back by his eldest sister. Before leaving, he made an appointment with Lu Sheng to meet at this restaurant next time.
Lu Sheng was also quite interested. Mei Youjiang's hobbies were quite strange, and the channels and sources for collecting information surprised him. It turned out that the monster phenomena described in these rumors were not related to his real experience.
I've seen them, exactly the same.
What was hidden in this was a bit intriguing. As for whether the person was male or female, he didn't care at all.
For more than half a month after that, he came to this restaurant every day to meet up with Mei Youjiang. The two of them traveled far and wide and talked about everything. Lu Sheng also gradually brought the topic to some things he wanted to know, such as the Silver Dragon.
The woman inside the body is another example of the eight-headed griffin beast.
And he also got some detailed information that he didn't know whether it was true or false.
In addition, during this period of time, the experiments he conducted on Bie Feihe gradually began to yield results. Especially regarding the training of spiritual power. For the time being, he has not found any sequelae.
It can be seen that the basic spiritual power method given by Gu Yan should be no problem. Next, he plans to truly practice spiritual power. Gu Yan must have a plan when he gives him the spiritual power training method. He hopes that his spiritual power will increase more.
.
He planned to follow the opponent's wishes and use Deep Blue to deduce deeper spiritual power techniques to enhance Lu Zhong's physical strength.
But at this moment, the Mei family in the town sent someone to deliver an invitation to the small courtyard where he lived. The post was sent by Mei Youjiang, but the content was a bit troublesome. Mei Youjiang actually
He was kidnapped and now he has left the city and disappeared.
The person who sent the letter was her personal maid Xing'er, who was a sister to her, so she thought of writing a letter to ask those who were close friends with this strange lady to report it.
Lu Sheng was obviously included in the list because of his drinking with Mei Youjiang during these days.
*************
Mei family.
"What should we do? What should we do!?" Mei Yinhong, the eldest sister of the Mei family, was so anxious that she kept wandering back and forth in the yard.
"My little sister has been out for fourteen hours and hasn't come back yet. She is born blind and can't find the direction at all. How could she follow an unfamiliar outsider so far away from the city? There must be something fishy in this!" Mei, the second sister, said.
Xiulan said calmly, but her fingers that kept clenching and unclenching showed that she was not as calm as she appeared.
"The government has also reported the case, and our people have been sent to search for it. So far, there is no result. We have searched all the places she likes to go. No one is there. Since the blackmail letter was left by someone, we may be able to
Extend this clue to find someone."
"I'm already doing it." Mei Yinhong nodded.
Bang! Bang!
There was a sound of smashing porcelain in the distance. Then there were people scolding and yelling, as if they were quarreling.
"What is going on in Yingxiangyuan, little sister? Why is it so noisy!?" Mei Yinhong asked angrily.
"I heard that the friends that little sister has made in daily life gathered together to discuss how to rescue little sister." Mei Xiulan frowned.
"It will cause chaos!" Mei Yinhong became angry and cursed in a low voice.
"It's better than nothing, I hope to have more strength now." Mei Xiulan smiled bitterly.
