Chapter 88 Concern
Two days later, Master Decheng and his party settled in a courtyard on Shuyuan Road. The courtyard in Sanjin was suitable for the four of them to stay temporarily.
The identities of Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng have also been determined. They are a pair of brothers who are quite unlucky.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were walking in the lane. After hearing clearly what the neighbors were mumbling, they looked at each other.
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan and whispered: "Will you go back and ask about the situation?"
Shi Zelan nodded, and they returned to the small yard with household items in their hands. After a while, a puff of cooking smoke quickly floated over the kitchen.
In the backyard, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng looked at the fireworks, and then looked at the smoke from the neighbors' houses on all sides. They sighed that this is the world of fireworks.
When Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were dining, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng would also sit at the table with them.
When there are many of them, they just come to smell the food.
After the meal, Shi Xiaoliu packed up the things in the kitchen, and Shi Zelan accompanied Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng to the backyard. She talked about some gossip she had heard.
After hearing this, Master Decheng smiled and said: "Scholar people really like to hear gossip.
We are going to live in the Black City for some time, so naturally we must have suitable identities.
Your master and I I definitely won’t take exams in the secular world. Then I am a child student who has very bad luck in exams. Your master is even more unlucky than me. Bad things happen every time I take exams.”
< br>Shi Zelan sighed: "Uncle, your future Taoist companions probably won't like your current setting."
"Sister Lan, I only focus on cultivating immortality and have no intention of getting married. Your master has Maybe I can find a virtuous wife for you.”
Master Shan Zheng smiled and waved his hand at the side: "There is no my name on the Sansheng Stone. I am also a person who wholeheartedly cultivates immortality."
Shi Zelan thought for a while and said seriously: "I am also a person who wholeheartedly cultivates immortality. As for anything else Everything is just a cloud in my mind."
Shi Xiaoliu came over and heard Shi Zelan's words. He agreed: "We don't have enough time to practice, so naturally we don't have the time to deal with other things."
Master Decheng looked at him: "Idiot, it's good for you to think like this. Love is the easiest way to wear down a practitioner's concentration."
In the morning on Xueyuan Road, you can always hear the sound of reading, Shi Zelan I often listen carefully for a while.
She said to Master Shan Zheng: "Some people read with their heart, and their voices are particularly pure and pleasant.
Some people just read with their mouths, and their voices are floating. It is so wasteful. Time.”
Master Shan Zheng said with a smile: “Reading more, even if you just open your mouth to read, is better than not reading at all.”
Shi Zelan agreed: “I think reading is good, but it’s a pity. I can't study in the lecture hall all the time."
Shi Zelan and Master Shanzheng said: "Master, Xiaoliu and I feel that the atmosphere near the school is the most peaceful, so we will go over and listen to people reading in a while."
< br>
Master Shanzheng supported Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan to walk around. He smiled and asked: "Do you need me to give you some money?"
Shi Zelan shook his head: "I sold a jade bracelet, I have a lot The money is enough to buy a yard in Heicheng.”
When Shi Xiaoliu came to call Shi Zelan, she shook her hand at Master Shanzheng and ran away happily.
Master Decheng came back from the front yard and said to Master Shanzheng: "The head of the Black City government is very upright. Let's live here until the new year and then go north."
Master Shanzheng After nodding, he asked: "Is there any news about the sect?"
Master Decheng shook his head: "People in Black City like to read, and chivalrous people cannot live here."
Master Shanzheng looked at him: "You are saying something, I am worried that if this continues, There is no one guarding the border?”
“We are not from here. I am not serious about chatting with you.”
They were making tea in the backyard and talking about the past years. Something about the door.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were walking on the way to the school. Along the way, they saw some shy young ladies. Shi Xiaoliu said in surprise: "It's such a cold weather, and the little ladies in the Black City still have to go out and do their work.
They looked around three times a step. What were they looking at? ”
Shi Zelan followed the eyes of the little ladies and saw the scholars sitting in the teahouse. They all had handsome looks and free and easy temperaments, attracting all the little ladies to look and look.
Shi Zelan He reached out and tugged on Shi Xiaoliu's sleeve, and whispered: "Is the school on vacation today? "
Shi Xiaoliu looked up and saw the scholars sitting in the teahouse. He sighed: "The people in Heicheng are really not afraid of the cold at all.
The scholars didn't even close the windows, they just sat by the windows and discussed issues in the cold wind. "
Shi Zelan looked at Shi Xiaoliu's clothes, then looked at his own clothes, and sighed a little: "Brother, in the eyes of others, our brothers and sisters are also extremely not afraid of the cold. . ”
They still went to the school, looking at the open door of the school from a distance, and watching the scholars coming in and out.
They looked for a while, and naturally saw some carriages. The pretty little ladies sitting inside, when they saw Shi Zelan, whispered: "Shameless, come and see the man. ”
When Shi Zelan first heard this, he didn’t think about himself at all.
She came to the academy just to hear the sound of reading, not to look at men.
She quickly felt the angry looks in the little ladies' eyes. She looked over and saw the anger in their eyes, and she suddenly understood.
She smiled triumphantly at them. They had the ability to whisper to her from behind, but they had no ability to get off the carriage and face the people they wanted to see.
Seeing the proud smile on Shi Zelan's face, Shi Xiaoliu laughed and said, "Who provoked you again?"
"They scolded me for coming to see a man."
"What do you think of a man?"
Shi Xiaoliu couldn't help but laugh. Shi Zelan concentrated on practicing.
And he didn’t think there was anything interesting about these scholars who behaved awkwardly.
Shi Zelan smiled along with Shi Xiaoliu, which naturally attracted some appraising looks. She didn’t like other people’s appraising looks.
“Brother, let’s go.”
After they returned to the courtyard, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were a little surprised: "You came back so early?"
"The school is on holiday today."
Master Decheng stood up and said: "Shichen It’s still early. Let’s go outside the city to collect herbs?”
“Okay, if it’s late, we’ll stay one night outside the city.”
The group left the city quickly. Shi Zelan sat in front of the carriage and said to Shi Xiaoliu: "It's snowing again.
The snowflakes outside the city are bigger than those in the city, and they look much more beautiful to me. "
Shi Xiaoliu nodded and said: "There are too many people in the city. Sometimes when I go out for a walk, I will meet someone who cares about me and asks me if I have anything to do with getting married? "
"Hehe. Brother Xiaoliu, how do you answer? "
"Before I said it, my family had already arranged a marriage for me.
Then they ask about your marriage. ”
"Me?" Shi Zelan pointed at himself, and Shi Xiaoliu nodded deliberately with a heavy expression.
