Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 297: A good place with “simple folk customs”
As Ji Yuan spoke, he slightly arched his hands as a courtesy to Yan Fei.
Compared with the heroic young chivalrous man back then, Yan Fei today has obviously lost his immaturity and has gained a lot of vicissitudes and other things.
Judging from what I heard, I don’t need to look at Yan Fei to know that Yan Fei now has no tassels not only on the hilt of his sword, but also in his heart.
Hearing what Ji Yuan said, Yan Fei didn't feel any sarcasm or offence, he just smiled slightly.
"Sir, you have seen it thoroughly. When you meet an old friend in a foreign land, let's not talk about those unpleasant things. Let's go. It's getting dark. There is no second decent town within a hundred miles. I'll invite you to the city for a drink." One cup to go."
After saying this, Yan Fei had already left the pavilion, and Ji Yuan followed him out. When he walked to the bodies of those people, Ji Yuan paused for a moment.
Seeing Ji Yuan stop, Yan Fei also paused in front and turned to look at him.
"Mr. Ji, do you want to collect the bodies and bury them for them?"
Ji Yuan looked at Yan Fei and shook his head.
"We are not relatives, but they want to kill me. As they said, there are many animals here at night, so why bother yourself."
I thought that Ji Yuan would talk a lot and try to persuade him to help bury the body, but hearing these words really made Yan Fei stunned.
"What are you looking at, sir?"
"Nothing, just looking at the lonely ghosts, let's go."
After saying that, Ji Yuan took another step forward and headed forward first.
On the corpses of the nine people, some ghosts have squeezed out of the body, while others are still half inside. They are all dull and confused, and they are not aware that they are dead for the time being.
There was no unscrupulous person coming, no land to lead the way, no one to send him to his death, and no family members to carry his soul back to his soul.
Lonely souls and wild ghosts, this is what they say, and because the resentment was not deep at the time of death, it could not become a climate. Now the relationship with the physical body has not been severed, and there is still a breath of yang energy. After a while, The night wind turns into a real ghost. If you are more stupid, the light of tomorrow will be enough.
Yan Fei stood there for a while, scanning the corpses on the ground. After thinking for a moment, he squatted down and searched. After taking some money from the nine people, he quickly moved forward to catch up. Count fate.
Looking at Ji Yuan’s white shirt in front of him swaying in the wind and walking leisurely, Yan Fei couldn’t help but say something.
"Mr. Ji, the way you dress now is much better than back then."
The last time Yan Fei saw Ji Yuan was at an inn in Ning'an County. Accountant Yuan had just changed out of his tattered beggar's clothes. He didn't have any classical aesthetics, and his appearance was still very shabby.
In addition, he did not have the magnanimity of today. It is not an exaggeration to say that the fate of planning back then was completely different from that of now.
Everyone likes to hear good words. Even for Ji Yuan today, hearing this sentence is a rare scratch. Look at Yan Fei and say with a smile.
"Master Yan can talk, please invite me for today's drinking plan!"
. . .
Although Ji Yuan and Yan Fei didn't deliberately speed up their pace, it didn't take much effort to travel just five miles, and soon they returned to Nandao County.
Rongyuan Restaurant is a restaurant with a fairly good reputation in Nandao County. This is where Ji Yuan and Yan Fei came.
When we arrived outside the restaurant, the sky was already dim. Yan Fei and Ji Yuan were walking towards them. They were seen by the waiter from a distance, and they immediately came out to greet them with smiles.
"Hey, Master Yan, are you here? I haven't seen you for a long time! Who is this?"
"This is an old friend from Yan's hometown, Mr. Ji. Although Rongyuan Building is not as expensive as the expensive places in the big city, it is still good in this Nandao County. At least there is less water in the wine."
After Yan Fei answered the waiter's words, he introduced it to Ji Yuan. The waiter next to him smiled broadly and was not embarrassed at all.
"Hey, Master Yan, let's see what you said, what does "mixed with too little water" mean? We at Rongyuan House never do such unscrupulous things, and never mix water with wine, please come in quickly!"
The store clerk extended his hand at the door to invite them in, and warmly welcomed them in. After asking whether they wanted a private room or a regular seat, he led them to a seat outside on the second floor.
In addition to a jar of local wine, we also ordered four vegetarian dishes, four meat dishes, and a bowl of soup, which was considered a very rich meal.
The waiter took note of the dishes and left in a hurry.
This location on the second floor actually seems to have no windows or entire walls. Except for the short wooden railing that reaches the chest when sitting down, there are only wooden pillars and some straw curtains.
But in fact, there are some wooden boards facing the four corners of the second floor. If it is windy or rainy, these wooden boards will go up to the surroundings, so that the second floor becomes a closed indoor environment.
This kind of design is rarely seen in Dazhen, at least Jiyuan has almost never seen it, but it has to be said that it is very unique.
At this moment, the store clerk has rolled up and tied some curtains around the table where Ji Yuan and the others are sitting, so it looks particularly transparent. It feels like setting up a table and eating next to the guardrail, and the viewing effect is very good.
"Mr. Ji, why did you come to Zuyue Country? Jizhou is not close to here."
Yan Fei's impression of Ji Yuan was still the same as it was twelve years ago, and he thought he might be an expert in the mysterious way, but to be honest, he was not very clear about what he was capable of.
“Come out for a walk, get to know the new world, and make some new friends.”
"Sir, you can go far enough!"
"Maybe..."
Ji Yuan didn't say anything more on this topic, but looked at Yan Fei.
"But you are here, Master Yan, which surprises Ji. Since we left Ning'an County back then, Ji Yuan has only seen three of the nine young heroes, and you, Master Yan, are the third one." ."
"Oh? Who are the first two?"
Before the dishes were served, Yan Fei placed two dishes and poured a cup of tea for Ji Yuan and himself. Even he would be curious after hearing Ji Yuan's words.
Ji Yuan drank some water to moisten his throat and replied.
"The first is Du Heng, Du Daxia, and the second is Lu Chengfeng, Lu Daxia. Both of them have their own ups and downs and their own realizations. Perhaps they will both be worthy of the word 'hero' in the future. By the way, Yan Da Why are you here?"
Yan Fei held the dishes and drank tea and listened quietly. It wasn't until Ji Yuan asked about this that he put down the dishes and answered.
"Just sharpening the sword."
He didn't say that he was a chivalrous person, he only said that he was sharpening his sword. Ji Yuan looked at him and said nothing. Yan Fei definitely didn't tell the whole story, but at least he was telling the truth.
Just as Yan Fei said, although he seems to have gone through many changes, ordinary people may not be able to tell it, but in Ji Yuan's eyes, Yan Fei has a faint sense of sharpness.
"Master Yan, Mr. Ji, your dish is here. This is fresh horse meat stew. It tastes best when it is just out of the pot."
The waiter was holding a tray with a large bowl of hot meat and vegetables and a small jar of wine. He put the dishes down first and then put the wine on the table and said something special.
"There is also this jar of aged wine. Take care of it, Master Yan. The sealing mud has not been opened yet. It will never be mixed with water! Use it slowly and I will serve you other dishes!"
Horses are not cheap anywhere, and even inferior ones will not be slaughtered casually. Ji Yuan looked at the fragrant horse meat. Either it was not fresh or someone was unlucky.
As soon as the waiter left, Yan Fei patted the seal off the wine jar and poured wine for Ji Yuan and himself, using the same dishes and dishes that he had used to drink all the tea.
"Sir, you have met Du Heng and Lu Chengfeng. Do you know whether Yan's martial arts is stronger or weaker than theirs now?"
Ji Yuan didn’t shy away from anything, and there was no need to shy away from anything. He tasted the wine first, and then answered.
"In terms of martial arts, Lu Chengfeng is far inferior to you. If you compare with Du Heng, Ji doesn't know who is stronger or weaker."
This answer surprised Yan Fei again. Du Heng had lost one arm back then, but he didn't expect that he was stronger than Lu Chengfeng.
Soon, all the dishes were served, and the two of them were eating and drinking, chatting about some things.
Ji Yuan then learned that Yan Fei had left Dazhen eight years ago and came to the Zuyue Kingdom, where he also earned a name called "Flying Swordsman".
And Yan Fei also knew that many things had happened in Dazhen in recent years, such as the death of the emperor.
"So Emperor Yuande has passed away? What is the new emperor's title?"
After all, he was a native of Dazhen. No matter how cold-blooded Yan Fei was, he was slightly shocked when he heard that the emperor had passed away.
"That's not clear. When Ji left Dazhen, His Royal Highness Prince Jin had not yet ascended the throne, so the state funeral was quite grand."
"What's the use of ostentation after death."
"Yes, what Master Yan said is absolutely true. The old emperor was no better than an ordinary peasant when he was about to die. When he put his arm around the neck of the King of Jin to explain his funeral, he also revealed his desire for life and fear of death. ”
Yan Fei added a piece of horse meat, chewed it, and asked subconsciously.
"Do you know this clearly, sir?"
"Yes, I was just watching from the side. Look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com"
Ji Yuan's teasing words made Yan Fei stunned for a moment, and then he laughed and shook his head.
At this moment, the sky was getting dark, and while the two were eating and drinking, a woman's scream came from the distance.
"Ah————"
Ji Yuan's voice sounded artificial, like screaming at the top of his lungs. He turned his head to look in the direction of the sound source, and Yan Fei spoke.
"Yuanqi Inn, Immortal Dance."
"Oh..."
Ji Yuan is a little speechless, it is really a good place with "simple folk customs".
"Ah————!"
The screams started again, Ji Yuan frowned and stood up immediately.
"Mr. Ji, you don't need to pay attention. There are too many such things here. It might as well teach those who are carried away by **** some lessons and remember them."
"The call is wrong this time."
Ji Yuan looked at him. After saying this, he had already jumped out of the railing, his feet were on the cornice, and he flew away like a light swallow.
"What a handsome Qinggong!"
Yan Fei looked at Ji Yuan's back blankly, and after saying a surprising word of praise, he stood up, dropped a piece of silver on the table, quickly used his Qinggong and body skills, and chased after Ji Yuan.
