Chapter 269

Chapter 269

Tan Wenbin stood on the dam, his ears trembling slightly. Although they were a little far away, he could still hear the conversation between Uncle Li and Zhao Yi.

When Tan Wenbin heard Zhao Yi agree to bring people to perform at the funeral in the afternoon, he did not find it funny at all, but sighed from the bottom of his heart:

“Our Young Master Zhao is truly a man of character.”

Chen Lin trembled as she went into the kitchen to help Aunt Liu prepare the meal. Lin Shuyou walked over to Tan Wenbin and responded after hearing this:
“That’s because you, Brother Bin, screwed me so much.”

Tan Wenbin shook his head and said, “This is because we have Brother Xiaoyuan here. If it weren’t for Brother Xiaoyuan, we would have been easily killed by Zhao Yi.”

Lin Shuyou frowned slightly, but did not refute.

You can criticize Three Eyes’ character, but you can’t question his ability.

Without Brother Xiaoyuan, they wouldn’t even be qualified to sit at the same table with Three Eyes.

Tan Wenbin smiled and said, “I was just expressing my feelings casually. Why are you so emotional? Soldier against soldier, king against king. At our own level, we are far ahead of them.”

Lin Shuyou: “Brother Bin, Chen Lin seems to know that we are not ordinary people.”

Tan Wenbin: “You are really insulting the girl’s intelligence.”

Lin Shuyou: “Ah?”

Tan Wenbin: “After you beat that old man to death that night, she got up early the next morning to help make breakfast. Do you think she is really hardworking?”

Lin Shuyou: “I really didn’t notice this.”

Tan Wenbin: “In our old lady’s eyes, the Chen family is a small family, but in the martial arts world, it is also a powerful family. Their daughter is a young lady after all, so why does she need to cook every day?

Now, he is also helping Mengmeng to make coffins.

If the Chen family really lived like this, they would have been ruined on their own without the Lu family’s suppression.

However, she knows Zhao Yi, and judging from her previous performance, her understanding of us has been greatly improved. “

Lin Shuyou nodded.

Tan Wenbin: “If she is more attentive to you and this place in the future, then there is no problem, you can continue to be together.

If she suddenly becomes cold and even complains that you didn’t tell her the truth earlier, I will fill up her car with gas and let her drive back to Jinling as soon as possible.”

Lin Shuyou: “Ah? It shouldn’t be behind…”

Tan Wenbin: “Because I know you’ll fall for it.”

Lin Shuyou looked embarrassed and said what he really thought: “I always feel that adding the background will be a bit…”

Tan Wenbin: “It’s the same old question again, do they like your money or you as a person?”

Lin Shuyou thought about it for a moment and nodded.

Tan Wenbin: “Material conditions themselves are part of your personal charm. There is no need to mind or deliberately separate them.

If my parents hadn’t worked in a government-run unit, Yunyun’s parents wouldn’t have agreed to our request so easily.

If I were really a gangster, failed to get into college, and my family was not well off, Yunyun would only like me for a while in high school, and after she went to college, it would be difficult for us to have any contact or interaction. “

Lin Shuyou: “Brother Binbin, why are you…”

Tan Wenbin blew a smoke ring towards Ah You’s face and said with a smile: “So realistic?”

Lin Shuyou: “I don’t think Yunyun is that kind of person.”

Tan Wenbin nodded: “Well, she may not be, but I am.”

Lin Shuyou didn’t know how to respond.

Tan Wenbin reached out and patted Lin Shuyou on the shoulder: “There are passionate loves in this world, but feelings based on reality are often more solid and have a higher limit.”

Lin Shuyou: “I seem to understand, but I also seem not to understand…”

Tan Wenbin: “Don’t think too much, just follow your heart. You said you have no experience in that area, but I was watching you that night.

It’s a bit bloody and violent, with people hugging and beating others, and even cutting open their stomachs in front of them and splashing blood all over their faces.

It’s not an ordinary way, but it’s also very effective to find a different way. The girl might really fall for it.

Ordinary dates are all the same, but this kind of scene can be remembered for a lifetime.”

Lin Shuyou: “I didn’t think about it that way at the time.”

Tan Wenbin: “Take your time. No one will really rush you except Tongzi. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You can’t force feelings.”

As he spoke, Tan Wenbin reached out and flipped Lin Shuyou’s eyelids, reminding him:

“Boy, I’ve said good things to you several times in front of Brother Xiaoyuan. If you don’t restrain yourself, Brother Xiaoyuan will personally take action to suppress the seal on you.”

Boy: “Ji Tong, please help me thank Manager Tan.”

Lin Shuyou: “The boy said it’s up to you to take care of it.”

Boy: “You want to rebel! Who am I working so hard for?”

Lin Shuyou laughed, and Tan Wenbin also laughed.

Aunt Liu: “It’s time for lunch.”

When Li Sanjiang’s family gathered together, they had to eat at several tables.

Runsheng originally ate alone in a corner, mainly because he didn’t want to disturb others with the incense.

Later, Lin Shuyou joined in and competed with Runsheng in food intake. Now that Tan Wenbin is back and in urgent need of nourishment, he has also joined the duel. It can be called a Three Kingdoms battle on the food bucket.

Li Sanjiang held the wine and took a sip. Seeing the three mules eating so enthusiastically, his appetite also improved a lot.

Seeing Old Tian coming up in his wheelchair, Li Sanjiang tapped the edge of his bowl with his chopsticks and greeted him warmly:

“Come on, little brother, sit here with me, let’s have a couple of drinks!”

Old Tian turned his head and looked at Zhao Yi, who nodded.

“Come, have a drink with you, brother.”

The two clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

“Brother, what happened to your legs?”

“I fell and became a paraplegic.”

“Oh, this is hard to fix.”

“It’s okay. I wasn’t used to it at first, but now I’ve adapted to it. At least I still have a skill that I can put to good use.”

“That’s true. You threw the stone well.”

“Hehehe.”

Li Sanjiang seemed to have remembered something and said, “We have a quack doctor here. His skills are not very good. He can’t cure most diseases, but he can occasionally cure some difficult and complicated diseases. Brother, do you want to try your luck?”

Old Tian was stunned for a moment, this was not an ordinary injury, he was injured when he fell down while trying to save his young master and was then attacked by a poison. Now the poison had penetrated into his meridians and there was no possibility of getting rid of it.

But since Li Sanjiang said so, he didn’t want to spoil the other party’s fun, so he pretended to be hopeful and asked:
“Really? That’s great! Brother, please take the trouble to help me get through to them.”

“Okay, what’s the number of his village? I think I wrote it down in a notebook…”

Aunt Liu brought a bowl of winter melon and clam soup and put it down, saying, “The doctor passed away last month, and his family also ordered a batch of paper-cutting and benches from us.”

Li Sanjiang was surprised and said, “What? Hey…it seems like there is such a thing, but how could I forget it? It shouldn’t be like that. I should have gone to his house to sit in the vegetarian feast.”

Aunt Liu: “There was another restaurant that offered a higher price that day, so you went to that restaurant to sit for the fast.”

Li Sanjiang couldn’t hold back his expression anymore. He raised his glass and said to Old Man Tian, ​​”Come on, brother, let’s have another drink.”

“Dry.”

After drinking, Li Sanjiang wiped his mouth and patted his forehead: “Ah, look at me, I’m old and my memory is bad.”

Old Man Tian: “Brother, you are still lucky. My brain has been failing for a long time.”

Zhao Yi was holding his rice bowl and wanted to squeeze in with Mr. Li, but when he saw A’li sitting next to Mr. Li, he didn’t dare to move closer.

The old lady ate alone at a round table, and he didn’t dare to go.

Yin Meng and the Liang sisters sat at the same table, but Aunt Liu and Uncle Qin were also sitting at the same table.

In the end, Zhao Yi simply squeezed over to where Tan Wenbin and Runsheng were and sat next to Lin Shuyou.

Lin Shuyou said disdainfully: “What for?”

Zhao Yi: “Fighting for popularity.”

After dinner, Li Sanjiang set off with the Zhao Acrobatic Troupe.

Since the host was holding the banquet at a restaurant in town, there was no need to send tables, chairs or benches. If they only needed to send paper-cuts, Uncle Qin and Xiong Shan would be more than enough, so Lin Shuyou and Runsheng both stayed at home.

While there was nothing to do, Runsheng pushed out the tricycle, waited for Yin Meng to sit on it, and then rode it to Xiting Town.

Chen Lin stood on the dam, watching the two figures walking away, and unconsciously fiddled with her fingers.

When she turned around again, she saw Tan Wenbin turning the car keys and waving to her.

This is her car. Tan Wenbin drove Zhou Yunyun out for a ride.

Lin Shuyou looked at Chen Lin standing there, then looked away, at the fields in the distance, and then at the blue sky and white clouds.

Finally, I decided to help Xiong Shan clean the fish pond.

Get up and walk out.

Chen Lin looked at his figure, bit her lip, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Ayou felt it, but was too embarrassed to stop.

Aunt Liu couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted to Lin Shuyou, “Ah You, take the girl out for a walk.”

Lin Shuyou immediately stopped, looked at Aunt Liu first, then at Chen Lin, and pointed outside.

Chen Lin took the initiative to jog down and stand next to Lin Shuyou, and the two walked out together.

Aunt Liu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “I’ve never seen anyone as strenuous as Ah You.”

Liu Yumei: “Only serious people will do this. Once they make up their minds, they will not change.”

The old lady really admires Ayou’s qualities, both in relationships and in friendships.

Aunt Liu whispered, “But when Xiaoyuan and A’li played together, they were much faster.”

Liu Yumei immediately asked, “How can it be the same?”

Aunt Liu: “Oh, why is it different again?”

Liu Yumei: “They are smart kids, so they are naturally faster.”

As she spoke, Liu Yumei looked up at the terrace on the second floor.

Not long after lunch, the two children lay down on the rattan chairs with their eyes closed.

The sun today is not too scorching, but warm and comfortable, with a slight breeze occasionally, which is really suitable for taking a nap outside.

However, the boy and the girl were not sleeping. Just like playing Go, this was a training habit they had developed a long time ago.

In A’li’s dream, Li Zhuiyuan can exercise the strength of his consciousness. Earlier, as soon as the boy took a look in, he would immediately feel dizzy and unconscious for a long time. Now, as he grows up, coming here is just like going home normally.

Outside the doorstep, there are white clouds and blue sky.

The land that was once filled with ghosts and evil spirits has been restored to its most primitive and simple appearance as an ancient village.

Li Zhuiyuan and A’li stepped out of the door and sat down by the ancient well in front.

There seemed to be something hidden in the well, making slight noises from time to time, but it did not dare to show up.

As for the top of their heads, they are still there, but they are more hidden, and… when the boy comes, they will even feel guilty enough to actively create an atmosphere of blue sky and white clouds.

The Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva from the previous wave, the traces of the Dragon King’s family from the previous wave, when the level of the waves you face keeps rising, those things that were not presentable in the past will naturally begin to become extra well-behaved.

Offense and defense have changed.

Now, during the interval between the two waves, if Li Zhuiyuan was willing to run around, he could just create causal clues for himself, just like he did with the dream ghosts, and catch a few evil spirits and kill them completely for fun.

This is not considered wasteful, but Li Zhuiyuan feels that God will give him this convenience.

After all, there are thousands of coincidences in the world, and not all coincidences are just waves, so there are extremely broad conditions for compromise here.

However, this method is too slow and there are too many evil spirits here. It is meaningless for Yugong to move the mountains for the time being. He has to wait until he really becomes the Dragon King before he can ask the gods to come down and move the mountains.

“Gudu… gudu…”

The thing in the well was still rolling, but when Li Zhuiyuan turned sideways and looked down again, it had calmed down again.

This evil creature wanted to show its special presence, but it didn’t dare to face the boy’s gaze.

Li Zhuiyuan said, “Come out by yourself.”

There was dead silence in the well.

Li Zhuiyuan stretched out his hand and pretended to grab it.

With a “splash”, a long, narrow creature that looked like a snake but was not a snake, with a bulge on its head, flew out from the well. Its body was colorful, and the splashing water formed a rainbow, creating a magnificent scene.

Then it fell again and dived back into the well.

Li Zhuiyuan: “Continue.”

It flew out again, and the beauty continued.

After falling down again, it flew out again without waiting for the boy’s orders, and repeated the cycle over and over again, leaving the rainbow hanging above the ancient well.

Li Zhuiyuan stretched out his hand to touch the rainbow bridge that was right in front of him. He actually grabbed a handful and handed it to A’li. A’li blew on it, and countless rainbow-colored bubbles flew out, which was very beautiful.

The color and the way to play are much more fun and interesting than the bubble water you buy from the vendor at the back of the movie.

A’li played for a long time, Li Zhuiyuan accompanied them for a long time, and the evil spirit jumped up and down for even longer.

After they had enough fun, the boy took the girl’s hand and walked towards the bungalow.

The evil spirit stopped and lay down at the edge of the well.

A strong hatred condensed in its eyes, and even the beautiful rainbow above it suddenly turned dark.

The boy, who was about to step over the threshold, stopped and slowly turned back.

The rainbow reappeared, and it began to jump around again, blowing out a lot of bubbles on its own initiative.

The boy didn’t turn around completely, but continued to walk into the house, returning to reality with the girl.

A’li came to the desk and unfolded a completed painting.

The last wave of pictures were not easy to draw, and Ari spent a long time designing them.

The painting shows a mountain with towering green on both sides and a mountain path in the middle.

The young man is below, walking upwards; above is Yu Tiannan, dressed in a black robe, walking downwards.

The main reason is that the key points of the previous wave are not suitable for retention, so what Ali intercepted is a good meaning.

The Dragon King, who was descending the mountain in the past, met Xiaoyuan, who was ascending the mountain, symbolizing a mutual recognition and handover.

Ahri looked at the boy, waiting for his reaction.

“Very good, really.” Li Zhuiyuan nodded with satisfaction.

At least, there is neither my real self nor the lazy pair of dogs in the painting.

“However, A-Li, I think this painting can be richer. For example, the little dog next to Yu Tiannan can be included in the painting. After all, it is actually the real protagonist of the previous wave.”

A’li drew a circle with her fingertips under Yu Tiannan’s feet in the painting, and then moved her finger down to behind Li Zhuiyuan, meaning that there was an extra dog over there, so something should be drawn here, otherwise it would be asymmetrical and ugly.

Li Zhuiyuan: “Let’s draw a picture of Zhao Yi.”

……

Xiong Shan did his job very efficiently.

When Lin Shuyou arrived at the fish pond contracted by Uncle Li, he found that there was really not much work to do.

But this time, he was not the only one who came. Chen Lin was also with him. He came here and left in a daze. Lin Shuyou felt like a fool.

But if I don’t go back, what else can I do?

Chen Lin: “Aunt Liu said she wanted to make fish soup for everyone tonight.”

“Okay, I’ll catch some fish.” Lin Shuyou rolled up his sleeves and prepared to find tools to catch fish, but he immediately realized that this was a newly turned fish pond and the fish fry had just been planted.

Chen Lin: “There’s a river next to it, how about we go fishing?”

Lin Shuyou nodded: “Yeah.”

Chen Lin: “When I came here, I saw a boat parked by the river.”

Lin Shuyou: “That’s someone else’s boat. If I want to use it, I have to tell them. It’s too much trouble.”

Chen Lin: “Then don’t take the boat, just sit on the shore and fish.”

Lin Shuyou: “I mean, we have it ready at home.”

After saying that, Lin Shuyou walked to the fish pond, lifted the small boat on the surface of the water, then squatted down and carried it up.

“Let’s go.”

“it is good.”

Lin Shuyou carried the boat to the river. Chen Lin followed behind him, looking at his back, sometimes laughing and sometimes feeling sad.

After lowering the boat into the river, Lin Shuyou boarded the boat first and said to Chen Lin:

“Come up.”

Chen Lin looked hesitant.

“Come on up, don’t dawdle.”

“it is good.”

Chen Lin came up.

Lin Shuyou pushed his feet slightly, and the boat drifted away from the shore and came to the middle of the river.

“Okay, now we can start fishing…”

Lin Shuyou then realized that he had just urged people to get on the boat but forgot to prepare the fishing rod.

Boy: “How stupid.”

Chen Lin sat on the boat with her legs folded and her hands on her knees. She had the temperament of a lady from a noble family and the cuteness of a beautiful girl from a small family.

She looked at both sides and said, “You’re right. It would be a shame to miss such a beautiful view and use it for fishing.”

Lin Shuyou: “I forgot to prepare the fishing rod.”

Chen Lin covered her mouth and lowered her head, this time she really laughed.

Lin Shuyou: “Wait a minute, I’ll go ashore to get it and I’ll be back soon.”

Boy: “Why don’t you just go into the water and catch some fish.”

Lin Shuyou: “Yes, I’ll just catch the fish!”

Boy: “…”

With a “plop!”, Lin Shuyou jumped into the river and sank into it. Chen Lin was a little surprised and turned sideways to look for him, but she didn’t see Lin Shuyou.

After entering the water, Lin Shuyou felt that his cheeks, which had become very hot when he saw Chen Lin’s smile, had finally cooled down.

“Buzz!”

With his vertical pupils opened, he could see the fish coming and going clearly.

I saw his figure moving quickly underwater, and his moves were as fast as lightning. He quickly caught two big fish, and without floating to the surface, he threw them directly into the air.

The fish came out of the water and landed precisely on the boat.

Next comes the second, third, and fourth…

Such efficiency is worthy of the title of Lord White Crane!
Lin Shuyou surfaced only after he was sure that all the big fish in the area had been caught.

On the boat, in order to prevent so many fish from jumping off the boat, Chen Lin squatted there and tried to stop them with his hands.

She kept shouting and laughing. Although she looked a little disheveled, she was still lively and pretty.

Lin Shuyou climbed onto the boat and helped her out.

He just kept slapping the fish on the head. Soon, the fish either fainted or died, lying motionless between the two of them.

It added a touch of dead silence and fishy smell to this date between a single man and a single woman.

Boy: “You are such a talent!”

Lin Shuyou sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Lin wanted to find something to wipe the water droplets off his face, but couldn’t find anything suitable, so she could only lift her sleeves, come over, and help him wipe them.

Lin Shuyou’s face was tense, as if he was being treated with medicine.

Chen Lin: “If this blind date still counts, I like you now.”

The blind date was originally arranged openly, although Zhou Yunyun invited the positive side of her.

Lin Shuyou: “Oh.”

Chen Lin: “After that night, I knew you were very powerful and that your family had a strong background, but today, I was still scared. Now when I think of the scene where Young Master Zhao kowtowed, I am still terrified.”

Lin Shuyou: “The skin on his forehead is very thick.”

Chen Lin: “The Zhao family is the real Dragon King family.”

Lin Shuyou: “Actually, it’s not that serious.”

In front of Brother Xiaoyuan, Zhao Yi never dared to call himself a member of the Dragon King family.

Chen Lin: “I am afraid, but also very surprised. If you like me, then with your family’s power, my Chen family won’t have to be afraid of the Lu family anymore.”

Boy: “Alas, I still haven’t seen the world.”

Lin Shuyou: “This is not my family’s power, it belongs to Brother Xiaoyuan. I am just Brother Xiaoyuan’s subordinate.”

Chen Lin: “I still understand the principle of a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister. With this relationship, the Lu family will definitely not dare to act rashly against my Chen family again.”

Boy: “The girl is honest and doesn’t pretend.”

Lin Shuyou: “Also, we don’t care about the grudges between your Chen family and the Lu family.”

Chen Lin pursed her lips when she heard this, but she didn’t smile anymore. She continued to wipe the water off his face and said, “I know that I didn’t seize the opportunity at the beginning. It would be ridiculous if I tried to get close to him. I just wanted to say what I was thinking.”

Lin Shuyou: “Because the Lu family will soon cease to exist.”

Chen Lin: “…”

Boy: “That’s a good way to tease. Keep going.”

Lin Shuyou finally had the courage to turn his head and look at Chen Lin, forcing out a smile that he thought was very calm:

“You’re so stupid, you actually thought we would keep it~oh~…”

Lin Shuyou’s voice trembled because Chen Lin leaned her head on Lin Shuyou’s chest.

Although Lin Shuyou hugged her that night, he had no other thoughts in his mind and only wanted to prove himself.

Now, in this situation, ripples appeared in his heart.

Boy: “Your heart is beating so loudly.”

The boat just kept floating on the river.

The girl’s head just rested on Ayou’s chest.

The book friend tried to raise his hand to hug her shoulders many times, but finally let it go.

He felt that the current feeling was quite good, so he didn’t want to do anything to break it.

After a long time.

Chen Lin: “Actually, I found you very charming when you killed someone that night.”

Lin Shuyou: “Is that so…?”

Chen Lin: “My family couldn’t protect me, so my brother and I were exiled from home. Later, even my brother went out to light a lamp and travel around the world, so I was left alone. I was very scared.”

Lin Shuyou: “Hmm…”

Chen Lin: “You are more willing to accept my dark side, right?”

Lin Shuyou: “All is fine.”

Boy: “The world has really changed. Even you, who are honest, have learned to lie.”

Chen Lin: “I am the negative side, and the positive side is the strong side of me that I created… Maybe I used too much force when creating it, and it left a bad impression on you.”

Lin Shuyou: “If you want to praise… you must first suppress…”

Boy: “This little poem is very well written.”

Chen Lin: “I want to tell you that I am very satisfied with you. I like you because you are handsome, powerful, and have a good background.”

Lin Shuyou: “I want you…”

Chen Lin raised her head and looked at Lin Shuyou’s face with watery eyes, expecting an answer.

Boy: “Good for giving birth!”

Lin Shuyou: “…gentle.”

At dusk, Lin Shuyou carried two large sacks of fish and walked home with Chen Lin.

The amount of fish is so large that it will definitely be more than enough for making fish soup tonight, and it can’t be used up to make fish jelly. I’ll probably have to pickle a lot of it.

Aunt Liu: “So many? Are there any alive ones? We can keep them first.”

Lin Shuyou said somewhat embarrassedly: “No one is left alive.”

The fish that were knocked unconscious all died because the two men stayed on the boat for too long.

Aunt Liu: “Oh, if you don’t know, you might think a group of cranes came to our village and destroyed all the fish in the river.”

When Lin Shuyou heard this, his face immediately turned red.

He knew that it was his aura as he transformed into Lord White Crane to catch fish underwater that was sensed by Aunt Liu.

Chen Lin said, “Aunt Liu, take a rest, I’ll take care of it.”

Aunt Liu: “How long will it take you to catch so many fish by yourself?”

Chen Lin: “It’s okay, Ah You and I will clean up together. When we are done, we will ask Aunt Liu to cook.”

“Okay then.” Aunt Liu walked to the old lady’s tea table, poured herself a cup, and said with a smile, “Looks like there’s some progress.”

Liu Yumei took a sip of tea and said, “I have to thank this pit.”

Aunt Liu lowered her eyes and saw a small hole in the cement floor, which was made by Zhao Yi in the morning.

“You are right, that girl is indeed smart and thoughtful.”

We were still shocked in the morning, but the relationship took a step forward in the afternoon.

Most people don’t have time to adjust, let alone the ability to take such action.

Liu Yumei: “Being thoughtful and knowing how to seize opportunities to move up are advantages. I dislike people who act pretentiously and try to get ahead.

In the past, in the big mansion, such people were easier to get along with. You knew what she wanted, and she also knew what she wanted, so there weren’t so many troubles.”

Aunt Liu: “Ayou, you seem to be enjoying it.”

Liu Yumei: “How can a young man like you stand this kind of test?”

Aunt Liu: “I just feel that it’s a little faster.”

Liu Yumei raised her chin. There were two children playing blind chess.

Aunt Liu: “You said it yourself, they are smart children, they are different.”

Liu Yumei: “It doesn’t matter whether it’s fast or not. A truly outstanding person, whether male or female, would never end up on a blind date.”

Aunt Liu: “Why is Zhuangzhuang helping him make the arrangements?”

Liu Yumei: “I’m afraid she wants to help him resolve some problem.”

Aunt Liu: “Ayou doesn’t look like he’s been hurt by love.”

Liu Yumei: “That means you like someone you shouldn’t like.”

Aunt Liu immediately became interested, leaned closer, and asked in a deliberately low voice:
“Guess who it could be?”

“Who knows, maybe it’s a teacher, or a widow who has a few children but still has her charm.”

Aunt Liu suddenly felt that it was not very interesting. The melon was planted too far away, and it would lose moisture when it was picked and transported here.

“I’ll go over there and help them kill the fish, otherwise dinner will have to be postponed again.”

After Aunt Liu left, Liu Yumei put the teacup back on the tea table, with a playful smile on her lips:

“Why guess? Just look who helped arrange it.”

……

The first performance of Jiujiang Zhao’s Acrobatic Troupe was a complete success.

Old Tiantou, sitting in a wheelchair, performed various throwing tricks, including stones, bowls and plates, and finally dart throwing. Opposite him stood a man with grapes on his head.

The Liang sisters’ real kung fu performances and various acrobatic moves also drew cheers from the crowd.

The most attractive show is Zhao Yi’s.

He first demonstrated how to break a stone with his chest. With one blow of the hammer, blood spurted out of his chest, scaring everyone present. Finally, he stood up, patted his body, and indicated that he was fine.

Then Zhao Yi performed magic again. The ordinary magic was already very exciting, and he also performed mind reading on the spot, which amazed everyone.

The big customer was worthy of being a big customer. Not only did he not delay the balance payment, but he also felt proud of the good performance and added an extra hard work fee.

On the way back, Li Sanjiang handed the performance fee to Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi took it first, then divided half of it and handed it back to Li Sanjiang.

Li Sanjiang: “What do you mean?”

Zhao Yi: “Introduction fee.”

Li Sanjiang: “Who do you think I am? I won’t take this.”

Zhao Yi: “This is a token of my heart.”

Li Sanjiang: “I appreciate the kindness, but you can take the money.”

Zhao Yi: “But we also have this rule there. Acrobats have to go through mountains of swords and seas of fire. According to the old rule, they have to give a commission to the introducer. It’s just a blessing.”

Li Sanjiang: “Is there such a rule?”

Zhao Yi: “Yes, please take this as an example, it won’t happen again.”

Li Sanjiang took the money and said, “Okay, you said you want to stay here for a while, so this will be your food expenses. I will refund you the extra money and make up for the shortfall in the end.”

Zhao Yi was anxious: “How can that be possible? We will pay for the food separately!”

Li Sanjiang: “I also have my own rules here.”

Zhao Yi felt depressed and could only smile helplessly.

Li Sanjiang fell behind and sat on the cart pulled by Uncle Qin.

The Liang sisters had been holding their breath for the whole afternoon, and asked:
“Is this really going to become our side job?”

“Do you want to continue doing this?”

Zhao Yi lowered his eyes, glanced at them, and said seriously:
“Don’t you see that the Dragon King’s family and Li’s men are all here to help? Just follow them. There are only benefits and no harm. Maybe you can have more luck and save a life next time.”

The host had invited them to dinner, so it was already quite late when Zhao Yi and his friends returned.

Since there was no room for them at home, Tan Wenbin took them to stay at Big Beard’s house.

Zhao Yi pretended to be dissatisfied and said, “Mr. Li is so leisurely that he is not even willing to come out and entertain me personally.”

Tan Wenbin: “You know Brother Xiaoyuan’s temper. Besides, didn’t I sit with you on the rattan chair for a while during the day?”

Zhao Yi: “That’s really nice of you. Should I be grateful to you?”

Tan Wenbin: “Don’t say such things. It’s easy for people to misunderstand and think that the relationship between us is really maintained by friendship.”

Zhao Yi: “When will you set off?”

Tan Wenbin: “Tomorrow, I will lead the team and try to go there and come back quickly.”

Zhao Yi: “Didn’t you say you would introduce me to a mysterious being?”

Tan Wenbin: “Isn’t this where I’m taking you?”

They felt nothing when they were close to Big Beard’s house, but when they arrived at the dam of Big Beard’s house and faced the peach forest, the expressions of Zhao Yi and his companions changed drastically.

Old Tiantou shivered and muttered, “This is a blessed land for growing spiritual medicines. Why are peach blossoms planted here? It’s such a waste…”

Zhao Yi reached out and covered Old Tiantou’s mouth tightly.

“Woooooooo…”

“Old Tian, ​​if you don’t want to be buried here as fertilizer, stop talking nonsense.”

Zhao Yi slowly loosened his hand. Old Tiantou calmed down, pointed ahead in disbelief, and asked:
“Master…”

The Liang sisters held hands and their bodies began to tremble, getting stronger and stronger.

Zhao Yi hurried forward and kicked their hands apart, interrupting their parallel exploration.

“Don’t look at places you shouldn’t look at. I’ve told you so many times on the way here. Be my grandson when you get here!”

Faced with Zhao Yi’s angry rebuke, the Liang sisters did not dare to retort this time, and did not even give him a look.

Because they had just discovered the great horror beneath the peach forest.

Zhao Yi turned to Tan Wenbin and said, “I didn’t expect you guys to be so extravagant. How dare you be neighbors with such a being?”

Tan Wenbin: “Is Master Zhao disappointed?”

Zhao Yi shook his head: “No, I was pleasantly surprised.”

Tan Wenbin: “Well, I’m glad I’m not disappointed.”

Zhao Yi: “How should I go to see it?”

Tan Wenbin pointed forward and said, “Just walk in. If it wants to see you, it will. If it doesn’t want to… you might die.”

Zhao Yi: “People with the surname Li can do it, but why can’t I, with the surname Zhao?”

Tan Wenbin took out a small notebook from his pocket: “Can I understand this sentence as a last word that needs to be recorded?”

“Okay, don’t forget to send it back to Jiujiang for me.”

“must.”

Zhao Yi walked down the dam, came to the peach forest, and began to take deep breaths.

Tan Wenbin crossed his arms and watched the excitement.

Who would have thought that the next moment, Zhao Yi opened his mouth to the peach forest and said:

“Li Zhuiyuan and I are very good friends. We have been through many ups and downs together and we consider each other as confidants. He introduced this place to me and invited me to come and pay a visit. I am here today, and I hope you will forgive me for disturbing you.”

Then, Zhao Yi took a step forward and walked inside.

This is a dangerous place, but it is also where opportunities lie. Mr. Li must have gained a lot of benefits here, so I… must give it a try too.

If you encounter a treasure land but dare not enter, that would be a real joke!

Pieces of peach blossoms fell around Zhao Yi, forming a path, guiding Zhao Yi to move forward.

A smile appeared on Zhao Yi’s face. He had gained the recognition of this terrifying existence under the peach forest!

At that moment, Zhao Yi turned his head to see the expression of Tan Wenbin on the dam behind him.

Tan Wenbin just tapped his arm with his fingertips, and his emotion could not be seen.

In fact, Tan Wenbin was already very surprised. You know, even if Brother Xiaoyuan wanted to communicate with the person inside, he had to rely on the bond and similarity with that big shot.

But Zhao Yi actually went in like that.

After walking deeper into the cave for a distance, a figure appeared in front of Zhao Yi. It was very blurry and his true appearance could not be seen.

Zhao Yi bowed and saluted: “Greetings, senior.”

A hoarse voice sounded:

“Do you know why I let you in?”

Zhao Yi: “I am a dull boy, please help me solve my doubts.”

“Because you’re just like me.”

Zhao Yi felt a sense of joy in his heart. It was just as he expected.

From a young person seeing his former self, this is a high compliment and recognition.

However, Zhao Yi still had to maintain his modesty. He bent his waist even deeper and responded:
“I am terrified. You must have been a brilliant man in your time. How can I be compared with you?”

“Oh… don’t you know?”

“Boy…” Zhao Yi raised his head, no longer being overly modest, and said frankly, “It should be a kind of mutual respect.”

“That’s right. Since we are exactly the same, we can be said to be sympathetic to each other.”

Zhao Yi gradually relaxed and wanted to get closer: “To be able to match Senior Xiao by three points, I am already unrivaled…”

“You are like me:
We see the mountains but are afraid to climb them. As long as the mountains stand there, we will be suppressed.

I was so stressed that I lost my temper and felt suffocated. In the end, even I got used to being suppressed.

What’s even more ridiculous is that the mountain may have never even looked at us from beginning to end.

You are just as pitiful as I am.”

Zhao Yi: “…”
