Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 211 Luck
Chen Zheng stepped forward and gently knocked on the door of Tie Mansion.Without waiting for too long, with a creaking sound, the door of the Iron Mansion slowly opened, revealing the face of an old man.

The old man had a kind face. The robe he wore looked expensive, but it was not something ordinary people could afford. However, it looked like it had been used for a while, and some parts had been starched. It looks a little white in some places.

It is absolutely impossible for the dignified Tie Mansion to let the old man play the role of porter, so this old man is very likely to be the person in charge of the mansion, so Chen Zheng also bowed his hands very politely and said: "Old man, I am a friend of Mr. Tie Xiaoxiao. I couldn’t come to the banquet yesterday, and I found out that my companions didn’t return at night yesterday, so I came here to find someone.”

As soon as the old man heard that he was looking for someone and was Tie Xiaoxiao's friend, he immediately remembered the large group of people yesterday, and suddenly realized that he stepped aside and said, "In that case, please come in, my lord. In the midst of a hangover, I trouble you to sit in the living room now, and I will arrange for someone to bring tea and pastries to the young master immediately."

Chen Zheng also nodded. It turned out that these guys didn't return to the inn and they were drinking in Tiefu, but it's fine for a few big men. Why didn't Yelu Maitreya come back yesterday? It couldn't be because they were drinking with He Yan and the others. Let's go, these people are really indifferent, how can they just pour alcohol on girls casually, it's not good if they drink too much and cause trouble.

Through the conversation, Chen Zheng learned that the old man who opened the door for him was the housekeeper of Tie Mansion, named Tie Yong. When he was young, he had served as the personal guard of Tie Xiaoxiao's father, but he was old and injured, so he After retiring, he was reluctant to leave Tie Fu, so he came to Tie Mansion as a housekeeper. He was a conscientious old man who was deeply trusted by the Tie family.

As for why Steward Tie came to open the door, the reason is that there are not many servants in the Tie Mansion, because Tie's father often goes out for combat training, Tie Yunshuang also goes outside with his father, and Tie Xiaoxiao is arranged to participate in the training in Jianzhou. Embroidered clothing guards seldom return to Yanjing for their activities.

Therefore, the Iron Mansion does not need so many servants, and it is the morning, and the group of little guys who fought for wine last night have not woken up yet, but the preparations are all done, clean clothes, prepared hot water, etc. Water and breakfast must be arranged early, so there is a slight shortage of manpower.

It happened that Chen Zheng came to visit when Butler Tie passed by the gate, and he opened the door just in time.

Arriving in the living room, Chen Zheng sat quietly on the seat, with hot tea and some pastries already placed beside him.

To be honest, the breakfast at the inn was already full, and the pastries in front of him were so delicate that Chen Zheng couldn't help but twitch his index finger.Also a little hungry.

The style of this living room is simple, and there are no decorations such as calligraphy, painting and antiques. Instead, there are many flowers and plants, and some tables, chairs and benches, which look very neat and simple.

Chen Zheng was tasting cakes when a beautiful figure walked in. It turned out to be Yelu Maitreya. The clothes he was wearing were obviously new clothes prepared by Tiefu, and he didn't know where the equipment was.Although it is an underskirt, it cannot conceal Yelv Maitreya's proud figure at all, especially the double peaks are very prominent, giving people a feeling of being ready to come out, and they move with the beauty's breathing.At this time, Yelu Maitreya's hair was still a little wet, as if he had just taken a shower, and there was still a little bit of moisture on his body, which made his whole body more fair and attractive.

"Huh? Why are you here?" Yelu Maitreya lightly parted her vermilion lips, with a puzzled expression on her face. If she hadn't met Butler Tie just now, she wouldn't have known that Chen Zheng had already killed him in Tiefu.

Chen Zheng said angrily: "Of course I came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime. When I returned to the inn yesterday, I found that there was no one there. I didn't know where you went, so I had to stay in the vacant room alone. It's not so early in the morning, so I asked around. Come here? I didn't expect you to be comfortable and still fall asleep?"

"Pfft——" Yelu Maitreya couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, is this jealousy? If you blame us for not informing you, I will pull you over for a drink before leaving, so that you can enjoy yourself ?”

Looking at Yelu Maitreya's provocative eyes, Chen Zheng felt that there must be something fishy, ​​so he did not agree, laughed aloud, and started to ask how they played yesterday.

Yelv Maitreya also sat down beside Chen Zheng very boldly, reached out and took a pastry and put it in his mouth, he got up a little early and hadn't had breakfast yet, he was a little hungry in his stomach.While eating, he told Chen Zheng what they did after they left the princess' mansion yesterday.

It is said that food and clothing are thought of sexual desires, after the group left yesterday, Su Tianyu found a reason to leave the main force, and the rest of the people were all full of stomachs, so they had to find a place to digest the food in their bodies.Vigorous activities are of course not feasible, but Tie Xiaoxiao and Lu Fengxian, who are landlords, remembered the fun place, Huihuifang.

It is almost as famous as Linglong Lane.If it is Linglong Lane, it is a famous place of love and moon, and there are Yingying, Yanyan, and melodious voices inside.

Then Huihuifang is the most famous place for fun in Yanjing.There are many casinos here, as well as cultural gatherings, dramas, storybooks, pot throwing, and other ways to have fun. It is a place where danger and opportunity coexist.

Danger means that there are many places to play in this place, but if you don’t have any money, don’t you think about going in and playing. A poor and lonely family, if you are a little careless, you may be heavily in debt.

The opportunity is that this is not only a good place to make money, but also a place where it is possible to become successful.If you have good gambling skills and are lucky, you can go to the casino and make a lot of money, and some other entertainment projects also have different rewards for customers who reach different levels.The opportunity is that you may meet noble people here.

The most convincing proof is that an important minister of the court came to Huihuifang. He loved cockfighting, but his level was very average and his vision was poor, so he always lost more than he won, but he never tired of it. The young man found him and said that he had the ability to help the nobleman reverse the defeat. At first, the nobleman was skeptical, thinking that he was a bluffing and cheating person. With a tentative attitude, he let the young man train himself a fighting cock.As a result, in the process of gambling with people, the chicken raised by the young man looks ordinary, but it is extremely fierce, which really made the nobleman a lot of money.

Since then, this young man has specialized in training cockfighting for nobles, and his status and life have also risen with the tide.

Tie Xiaoxiao brought everyone here to let everyone relax, but he seemed to have forgotten that after leaving Tianyuan Secret Realm, without the suppression of the rules of heaven and earth, his weird luck seemed to have returned.So the result of the game is very tragic.

Just like throwing a pot, the arrows of several other people always died halfway due to some accidents, but even if Tie Xiaoxiao threw it deliberately, the arrow feathers could hit the target.

There is also playing dice to bet on the size, as long as Tie Xiaoxiao chooses which side, she will make a lot of money.

There is also Go. When playing Go, Tie Xiaoxiao’s ears felt as if his opponent had been given a halo of intelligence. Every time he made a stupid move, and even the most basic routines for the next game were unclear, he was defeated by Tie Xiaoxiao inexplicably. Xiaoxiao’s men.

There are other things like playing small balls, fishing for goldfish, drawing lottery tickets, etc. What Tie Xiaoxiao said can be said to be unfavorable.

They had only heard about Tie Xiaoxiao's weird luck before, but hadn't actually seen it, but this time it opened the eyes of the people in the small team.This is more than just good luck, knowledge is a cheating device that can move, and in the end everyone is numb, and they can't feel the fun at all.

Playing against Tie Xiaoxiao is just looking for abuse, and watching Tie Xiaoxiao use his luck against others and suddenly feeling sorry for his opponent is really complicated.

So in the end, the group of people who digested most of the food in their stomachs went back to Tiefu and continued to fight for wine. If you dare to mention it in front of you, you can go, but the male compatriots present don't have the courage to mention it.

Back in the Tie Mansion, the Tie Steward was also busy for a while. After all, there were relatively few visitors to the Tie Mansion on weekdays. The father and son often spend New Year's Eve in the army.

But even so, the master of Tiefu's back chef is still trying his best to display his skills, because there are very few guests, so every time a guest comes to Tiefu, it is the time for him to show his true skills.

Last night, Tie Butler deliberately took out several jars of drunken wine from Tiefu's wine cellar.This drunken wine is not ordinary, it is distributed according to the number of high-ranking ministers in the palace every year.

According to legend, after tasting the Immortal Style and Taoist Bones of Youdao Sect, a senior who could be called an Immortal laughed heartily and immediately got up and left the two characters "Drunken Immortal" with his brushstrokes. From then on, this Drunken Immortal Brew became the name of the Palace in the Palace. A golden signboard of the company.

Every year, the Palace of Drunken Immortal Brew will send a batch of them. These young masters are Tie Xiaoxiao's close friends, and there is also the eldest lady of the Lu family.

Steward Tie knew how close the relationship between Tie and Lu was, and Lu Fengxian still had a secret affection for Tie Xiaoxiao, so naturally he was willing to show this treasure.

As a result, the drunken wine really lived up to his name. There was nothing unusual when he drank it in his mouth, but he could feel the rich and mellow taste in his mouth, but the situation changed soon. After a few glasses of wine , the sudden eruption of alcohol made people dizzy, and He Yan, who usually boasted that he could drink a thousand cups, fell first.

Even Tie Xiaoxiao just felt the heat on her face and her head was a little dizzy, but the mellow taste in the end was like a stupid drug, constantly attracting them to continue drinking step by step.

The final result was that everyone fell to the ground, except for Yelu Maitreya. Maybe the girl from the grassland was naturally more heroic.Or maybe he has already developed a very good drinking capacity in the Han Family Jianghu Continent, and his head is only slightly dizzy, but he is not completely drunk yet.

However, it was clear that Iron Butler was fully prepared for such a situation.Soon some servants sent these drunk young masters to the guest room.

But Yelu Maitreya ordered a hangover soup, and then took a comfortable bath before going to sleep.

In the morning, Yelu Maitreya woke up to do morning exercises while others were still asleep.This is a habit she has developed over the years, and it can already be regarded as the instinct of the human body. No matter what time, place, or where she sleeps, Yelv Maitreya will wake up very self-disciplined every day, and then start morning exercises .

After finishing internal strength, punching, knife skills, and training, a thin layer of sweat has already appeared on his body, and it is time to wash away the sweat comfortably.Not long after he came out, Yelu Maitreya ran into Butler Tie when he was about to take a good look around, and Butler Tie also told Yelu Maitreya the news of Chen Zheng's arrival, so she ran over without thinking about whether she was doing something or not. up.

Fortunately, the two ate and chatted while they had nothing to do.Yelu Maitreya couldn't help feeling that this city of Yanjing was indeed prosperous, and its affluence far exceeded that of Yanjing in the Northern Dynasties. I had seen a lot in the Han family mainland, but only after I came here did I know what it means to be human. There are people outside, and there are days outside the sky.

And Chen Zheng also hinted that the outside world may be more exciting. Even now, the human race has not found out how big the Yuanwu Continent is.

Moreover, the national conditions are different, the terrain is different, and the climate is different.A variety of local conditions and customs have also been formed, and many magical things are really unimaginable.

Chatting and chatting, soon another figure entered the living room, it was Tie Xiaoxiao, the owner of this place.I could see the little guy rubbing his forehead with a sad face, presumably it was a headache after waking up from a hangover, and Chen Zheng and Yelu Maitreya laughed secretly.

Tie Xiaoxiao just woke up not long ago, and just woke up from sleep, a maid came to report that his friend named Chen Zheng had visited. He suddenly woke up when his friend was sleepy, and hurriedly asked the maid to dress and wash himself, so that It is impolite for people to wait too long. After everything is ready, I find that I have some headaches, and I secretly groan in my heart. If I knew that the hangover is so uncomfortable, I would not have booed or drank so much last night.Even Tie Xiaoxiao could feel that her footsteps were a little vain when she walked.

When he raised his head, he happened to see the smiles in the eyes of Chen Zheng and Yelu Maitreya, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
