Chapter 19 Perfecting the Character
In the dimly lit Miao village, Fu Qingzhou walked in front with a dark face. Tang Jiao held a lantern and timidly followed him about two steps behind.
"Don't take off your clothes casually in front of me in the future."
Fu Qingzhou curled his lips and said without looking back.
Tang Jiao lowered her head and whispered: "I am already yours..."
"I haven't agreed to let you follow me yet." Fu Qingzhou said calmly: "Also, don't call me your lord, and don't call yourself my concubine. It sounds uncomfortable to me."
That's all, lord...< br>
Lao Bangcai, who has been born in two lifetimes and considers himself at least thirty or forty years old, really feels a great sense of guilt when he sees a minor claiming to be a concubine.
"Then, how should I call you?" Tang Jiao was stunned.
Fu Qingzhou laughed dryly: "Just call me eldest brother. As for how to call myself myself? Does the word 'I' mean it's hot?"
Tang Jiao lowered her head slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she softly called "big brother".
Fu Qingzhou seemed to have never looked back, but in fact he was always paying attention to her reaction.
He wanted to see if Tang Jiao was a tenant farmer living at the foot of the mountain.
According to what she said, although she was once the eldest lady in Beijing, she also lived here for two or three years, doing farm work and working in the rice fields.
When he was in the house before, he noticed Tang Jiao's hands. There were calluses on her palms and fingertips, but he was not sure whether they were calluses from martial arts training or farming.
When walking outside at this time, her steps were steady but not light, which was indeed consistent with the walking habits of a person who has been working in slippery rice fields for a long time.
After wandering around the village for a long time, Fu Qingzhou also paid attention to many details.
Tang Jiao was not familiar with the road layout inside Ten Thousand Poison Mountains, especially when she was near some disciple rooms and poison refining rooms. At first, she showed ignorance and "I don't know where this is". Attitude, but after knowing it, there was clearly a sense of fear and fear, and subconsciously did not dare to get close.
Similarly, when she sees Miao people on the road, she will obviously avoid them.
Fu Qingzhou had a little idea, and found the reason of "wanting to eat some authentic Miao snacks", and sent her to the ordinary Miao village at the foot of Wandu Mountain to get some food for herself. He said that he was going to see the elder of Wandu Mountain.
But in fact, he had been hiding on the edge of a certain mountain cliff, quietly observing Tang Jiao using the ultimate vision after turning on the Divine Eyes.
"Why are you so tired?"
The smoker asked irritably: "You doubt her, why don't you just drive her away?"
Fu Qingzhou is too lazy I ignored it and just looked at it silently.
After going down the mountain and entering the village of ordinary Miao people, Tang Jiao was still not too familiar with the road and often had to look back and forth at forks in the road. After that, her walking seemed to get smoother and smoother, and she finally came close to the village. It was only in the small area on the edge that I finally became familiar with it.
She even deliberately extinguished the lantern and walked forward in the darkness.
Finally, she opened the lock of a hut and got in while avoiding the idle Miao farmers wandering around.
Soon after, she walked out of the house again, carefully holding a food box in her hand, and hurried back towards the mountain.
“It seems that what Tang Jiao said must be true.”
Fu Qingzhou smiled.
Because she was bullied and ostracized, she only moved around her home. Even if she turned off the lights, she still knew the way to go. There were many Miao Han people who coveted her beauty near her home, so she didn't want to be discovered and deliberately turned off the lights.
Coupled with her previous performances, Fu Qingzhou basically judged that what Tang Jiao said was true. If all of this was acted, then her acting skills were not only natural, but also to the point of changing her personality... How long had it been since he became the "Mingjiange Secret Agent"? Can Wandu Mountain find a girl with such abnormal acting skills to plot against him in such a short period of time?
It would take time to make up a lie, and then practice acting based on the lies. He didn't believe that anyone could do it to this extent.
What's more, the smoker has personally verified that Tang Jiao has no knowledge of martial arts. She just had to fight hard when she was young, so she should have some foundation.
"Big, big brother!"
Soon after, Tang Jiao saw Fu Qingzhou at the mountain gate. She was sweating profusely and her cheeks were rosy from climbing the mountain. She kept changing the hand holding the food box along the way. , obviously a little tired.
"Didn't you go to see the elder? I also want to wait for you where you live." When she used her words normally, her speech became smoother.
Fu Qingzhou smiled at her and took the food box: "Let's go and eat together."
His previous attitude was cold and calm, but now he suddenly became enthusiastic and started to react. Tang Jiao felt a little uncomfortable.
After returning to her residence, Tang Jiao put out the rough and ugly cakes in the food box, looking a little embarrassed: "Brother, these are the only ones..."
Fu Qingzhou smiled and grabbed one casually. , while eating, he asked: "Do you really want to come with me?"
"Yeah... I do."
Tang Jiao rubbed the corners of her clothes, lowered her head and said, "I My life is not good here. Sir, you have an extraordinary status. I don’t ask for anything. I just want to go back to the capital to burn incense for my late father without worrying about being arrested in the Jiaofang Department..."
Fu Qingzhou raised his head, He looked at her deeply: "I'm not an adult."
"What?" Tang Jiao was startled.
Fu Qingzhou said calmly: "I am not an adult in Beijing, but don't ask about my identity. You just need to know that I can take you out of here, and... I need your help."
"Help?" Tang Jiao was at a loss: "I, what can I help you with?"
"You are from the capital."
Fu Qingzhou smiled slightly: "But I didn't go When you pass the capital, I want you to tell me everything you know about the capital.”
No matter what he encounters next, no matter what kind of tasks Hua Xiaolan will arrange in the future, at least for now, he is playing the role of a young master and official in Beijing. When others ask about the relevant details, won't he have to make it up?
Although Hua Xiaolan said that people in Wandu Mountain rarely went out, he did not believe that the entire sect was composed of country bumpkins who had lived in the mountains all their lives and were prepared for any danger.
And this act of "confessing" one's identity is also the last test to see if this sentence will fall into the ears of the elders of Wandu Mountain.
Of course he kept something secret. He did not say that he was not from Mingjiange, he only said that he was not from the capital... If asked, he had his own plan.
After listening to his words, Tang Jiao obviously became extremely nervous, but probably due to the kindness of being a Han Chinese and the decisiveness of having no way out, she quickly made up her mind and slowly calmed down. , began to slowly tell everything he knew.
The bustling Baishi Street, the magnificent Imperial City, the Zhangjian Academy that everyone admires, the mysterious and terrifying Mingjian Pavilion, as well as Fanliu Mountain, Tianxin Lake, Jiulong Bridge and other favorite outing spots for young men and ladies...
< br>Not to mention the restaurants at the entrance of Baishi Street, the pastries from Zhenxiuge, her father's favorite Liangshan wine...
Although she was only about ten years old when she left Beijing, she talked about these places. , her eyes were still shining.
Fu Qingzhou listened silently, having already completed a set of settings for his identity in his heart.
The night was getting deeper, but footsteps came from outside the door.
"Master Fu."
Someone called out: "Elder Ma sent me to call you. I have a clue to your curse."
