i want to be by your side

It has been three days since I went to rescue Yuan Jian, and all the nearby Taoist monks who are able to help have come, and those who haven't come are already on their way.Among them, the more prestigious Daoist Dongxu and the wandering monk Master Juekong came here earlier at Yuan Jian's invitation. If I hadn't rescued Yuan Jian that day, she would have been rescued by the two who came immediately .

Fortunately, both of them are sensible people. Although they saw Xiao Qi's demon body, they didn't get rid of the demon as soon as they saw those old stubborn people who claimed to be demon extermination.

I slipped into the barracks one day.At that time, Zhang Xiaoxiao was training soldiers in the martial arts field, and Yuan Jian was chatting with Dongxu and Juekong in a simple pavilion built up.

"A guest from afar is coming." Dongxu suddenly stroked his goatee, raised his head and said in the direction I came from.

"Amitabha." Juekong clasped his palms together, "Treasurer Long, how are you doing?"

I also put my palms together to return the salute, and after saying hello to the two in turn, it was Yuan Jian's turn. "Now she is my employer." I solemnly said to the two of them.Dongxu and Juekong showed a clear look.

"I didn't expect Benefactor Yuan to find you." Jue Kong said.

"Well, it's true that only you can help her!" Dong Xu also sighed.

What the hell?I looked at Yuan Jian suspiciously, and found that she was also looking at me suspiciously, but the two of them didn't continue talking.

I donated the tea leaves from Xiaoqing to Master Juekong, and I gave Dongxu a pot of wine I had brewed for hundreds of years.Yuan Jian watched in surprise as I took out these things out of thin air, wanting to say more.

"Dare to ask the Taoist priest and the master to explain it." I said with a serious face.

Dong Xu's beard flicked, but he took the pot of wine into his arms very neatly. "Ahem, the secret must not be leaked." He said, but glanced at Yuan Jian.

Juekong is a monk, so he can't do things like Dongxu.He clasped his palms together and said calmly: "I think that now we should put the big things first."

Yes, I rolled my eyes in my heart, sat down silently at the side, and listened to what they were talking about at the moment.

"I wonder if Miss Yuan can tell me the identity of Shopkeeper Long?" Dongxu put away the indecency just now, and asked Yuan Jian with a serious look.

Yuan Jian was silent for a second, then replied: "No."

So I looked at the two of them eagerly, thinking that it was time to tell me the truth, but Dongxu said mercilessly: "In this case, please ask Master Long to spy on the enemy's military situation first." .” The unspoken meaning is that you can go.

Go on go go go go go go!

I left angrily, and when I was about to go far away, I suddenly realized that there were still people who didn't want to see me in this barracks, so I stopped quickly and looked around to see if there was Zhang Xiaoxiao.

At this moment, I heard someone calling me from behind.

"Shopkeeper Long, please stop!" Looking back, it turned out to be Zheng Rentao.

"What's the matter?" I made a serious face on purpose, but I knew in my heart that apart from Yuan Jian, no one else would let Zheng Rentao, including himself, come to me for anything.

"Well, Shopkeeper Long, don't mind, my lady's status is quite sensitive, so..." You understand.

I looked at the look on his face and automatically completed what he hadn't said in my heart.In fact, I didn't mind too much. I completely understand this kind of thing, because I didn't tell her who I was.

"Miss, she is very grateful to you for saving her twice..."

Besides the one with the winged beast?I subconsciously recalled.

"So I specially asked someone to bring down a few sheep from the north..."

Um?sheep?I noticed this word, but the sheep were brought here from the north. Although this is not the south, it is also southerly. Three days is not enough, right?I subconsciously thought that she gave the order after the Winged Beast incident, so I asked this question suspiciously.

"It was earlier..." Zheng Rentao explained.

Earlier?When is that again?Zheng Rentao said that they gathered outside the cave after being separated. After everyone came out of the cave, Yuan Jian ordered Shan Che, and Shan Che told Zheng Rentao to find someone to bring the sheep down.

Oh, so it was that time, I thought it was to find another killer to replace me that time!Made me cranky for a long time.

"The chef in the barracks is from the north. He is the best at roasting the most delicious lamb. Just watch it, Master Long!"

While talking, I had already followed Zheng Rentao to the kitchen side. From a distance, I saw a raging fire rising in an open space in the middle, with a sheep on it. seasoning.

It made my eyes shine.

"Don't be in a hurry, shopkeeper Long. Miss said, this sheep is all yours." Zheng Rentao silently wiped the invisible sweat from his forehead and said while maintaining his demeanor.He led me to a shady place where low tables and straw mats had long been set up.I sat cross-legged on the mat, waiting for the lamb to be roasted and served.

"Do you want to eat together?" I asked politely.

"No need." Zheng Rentao wiped the invisible sweat from his forehead again, and left with an excuse.

"Help me to thank your lady!" I shouted at him from a distance, thinking that Yuan Jian is really generous.I felt like I was hugging the thigh of a food stamp invisibly.

I have to say that the chef's craftsmanship is really very good.A leg of lamb was cut into slices and served on the table, I grabbed the chopsticks and put the lamb in my mouth without thinking about the steam.During the period, I met a few centurions and lieutenants who were on vacation, and I yelled at them to eat together.Afterwards, more and more people were invited over by me, and a sheep went into the stomachs of a dozen big men almost in the blink of an eye, and each of them was still full of desires.

"Let me tell you, it's boring to have meat without wine. Now that the meat is gone, would you like to go to the city to drink with me? I'll treat you." I stepped on the low table and shouted boldly, saying He took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket and threw them at his feet.

"Let's go, let's go!" Everyone shouted in high spirits when they saw it.

"But those monsters in front of us haven't been eliminated yet, we're just so drunk..." There were still many rational people in the crowd.At this moment, someone mentioned it, and the voice of shouting away from the crowd suddenly became weaker.

"What are you afraid of? Aren't there some Taoist priests over there?" I said, "Besides, didn't you see my heroic appearance that day? Watch me shoot them down with one arrow. Besides, isn't one end able to fly?" Hawk-headed cat? What are you afraid of?"

The bloody young man was quickly aroused by me, and I led the group from the barracks to the largest restaurant in the city, drank until drunk, and then went to Zuihua Pavilion Listen to the tune.It was almost dawn when everyone went back. Naturally, they couldn't escape the military law. Everyone was dragged down and beat [-] boards, and was also deducted this month's silver taels.

This is what I found out when I went back to the barracks after taking care of myself outside and changed a set of clothes, and listened to these people complaining.I said 300 taels is nothing, if you have rough skin and thick flesh, you can treat it as a tickle. Well, this is [-] taels, and it should be my compensation for your medical expenses and this month's money.

Everyone went back with smiles on their faces.But not long after, Yuan Jian came to see me.

"I can't tell Shopkeeper Long is very rich!" She said with a blank face, flapping the folding fan in her hand once and for all.

I shivered inexplicably: Why did the weather suddenly become so much colder?Looking at the sneer in Yuan Jian's eyes, I feel a little guilty for no reason.

"I also went to the Zuihua Pavilion, isn't the music played by the oiran good?" She walked in front of me, her whole body was almost pressed against my body, and the fragrance she exhaled clearly hit my face when she spoke.

"Yes, yes, it's pretty good..." I trembled my voice, subconsciously retreated to distance myself, but the other party took a step up and forced me up again.When I retreated to the point where I couldn't retreat, my mind was in a mess, and only the face in front of me was the clearest.

Just when I couldn't even see the other person's face clearly, and I was deeply immersed in her pupils, there was a moist, hot and soft touch on my lips.

My eyes widened in surprise.

But the tactile feeling stayed for a short time, so short that I thought it was an illusion. I heard the other party sigh softly, and I came back to my senses in a trance, but what I saw was that the other party opened the tent and left. back view.
