Qiuqiu turned around, and saw the shopkeeper walking over crookedly carrying a wine flask, his tongue a little unruly.
No wonder I didn't see anyone just now. I went out to drink.
In the afternoon, I couldn't get anything useful out of this guy's mouth. Now that he's drunk again, I'm afraid he has no hope. Despite this, Qiuqiu still asked him: "Can I ask the shopkeeper about the painting I bought this afternoon?
Do you still have an impression? Where did that painting come from? Is there anything else?"
The old man stood there thinking for a while, then shook his head sluggishly: "I don't remember, I was looking at this shop for someone else. But as for the painting in the afternoon, it was packed in a broken box when it came.
There are some other bits and pieces inside, all thrown over there, you can find them yourself."
Qiuqiu was simply overjoyed.
"Thank you very much." Qiuqiu looked at the wine pot wrapped with a rattan sleeve that he was carrying. It was heavy and could hold three or four kilograms of wine without any problem. Fortunately, the wine at this time was all rice wine and the alcohol content was not high.
.If it was fake soju, the old man would have drunk himself to death.
The light in the store was dim, so Qiuqiu took out a bright pearl to illuminate it. She didn't bother to look through it carefully and just cleaned up all the piles of things in the corner that the shopkeeper said. Except for the shelves and tables, basically everything here was
There's nothing left.
Qiuqiu returned home with her Qiankun bag fully loaded. She felt that this was what she should do in the afternoon, and she wouldn't have to make another trip in the evening. However, she was so shocked when she saw the painting that she couldn't care about anything else.
It was almost the second watch, so Qiuqiu quickened her pace. When she got to the courtyard gate, she had to call the door again. The child still came over and opened the door for her. He was not impatient at all and asked her with a smile: "Junior Sister Jingqiu."
Have fun in town?"
Qiuqiu also smiled and said: "I rarely go down the mountain, so I can't help but want to see more."
The child asked her: "Are you hungry? There are some plain noodles cooked on the stove."
Qiuqiu was a little curious: "Senior brother and Master don't take Bigu Pills? Or do they always eat grains?"
The boy said: "It's not that it's inconvenient to travel far away, or it's not in retreat, so it's better not to eat too much. Ordinary people still say that medicine is composed of three parts of poison. Most of the elixirs are added with gold and stone, and are tempered by cauldron fire.
, it’s not good to eat all the time.”
Qiuqiu agrees with this point. However, not everyone in the sect sees it this way.
Qiuqiu thanked him for his kindness, but she was not in the mood to eat noodles at the moment.
She pushed the door open very gently, Jingfei turned over and did not wake up.
But Senior Sister Jinglan hasn't come back yet.
Did they make good progress today? When it comes to falling in love, the key is to talk about one word. The longer the conversation, the more interesting it is. If two people can't find anything to say when they are together, or they fall silent after just a few words, how can they fall in love?
Qiuqiu yawned. She was really tired today. She washed her face, took off her coat and lay down.
Even the smell here is different from the mountain.
In other words, there is no smell at all on the mountain. Everything is clean, empty and cold. But it is different here. Qiuqiu has a sensitive nose and can smell many smells that others may not notice. There should be a straw mat under the bed.
, this smell is long-lost but fresh. Before Qiuqiu went to the mountain to become a disciple, I slept on such a bed at home. The hay was woven into a felt, which was soft, breathable, and very elastic, making it very comfortable to sleep on. The only drawback was that
If the felt is loosely woven with large gaps, there will always be a creaking sound when turning over.
There are also the smells outside, the smoke of burning firewood, the aroma of refining medicine, the smell of grass...
Qiuqiu was in a daze, and Jingfei's sleeping position next to her was really difficult, and there was no quiet moment. Sometimes she turned to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes an arm was thrown over with a snap, and sometimes a leg was thrown over with a clang.
Qiuqiu was really annoyed and really wanted to slap her awake.
Not only was she moving around, but Jingfei was also grinding her teeth and chewing her lips. The sound of the movement made people's scalp numb.
Qiuqiu turned over and sat up, reaching out to poke the girl's forehead.
Jingfei hummed twice, reached out and rubbed her forehead randomly, turned over and fell asleep again.
Qiuqiu was both angry and funny. She raised her head and glanced out the window——
Strange, there are more than three people now, right? Why hasn’t Senior Sister Jinglan come back yet?
Qiuqiu Zhuo walked to the window with her shoes on, opened the window and took a look outside.
There was a knock on the door just outside. Jingyuan walked into the yard and saw Qiuqiu standing in front of the window.
"Why are you standing here so late?"
Qiuqiu glanced behind him subconsciously - didn't Jinglan come back with him?
Jingyuan followed her gaze and looked around, but found nothing: "What's wrong with you?"
Qiuqiu is a little embarrassed, she is so concerned about the ambiguous gossip of her senior brothers and sisters, but Jingyuan is fine, Jinglan is very face-saving, so don't come back and get annoyed.
Qiuqiu asked smoothly: "Senior brother, haven't you seen Senior Sister Jinglan?"
Jingyuan shook his head: "No, I went to the real person - why is Jinglan not in the house?"
So they weren't on a date?
Qiuqiu was very surprised: "No. Senior sister went out after dinner, and she didn't say where she was going. I thought she went out with you, senior brother."
Jingyuan nodded: "I know, I'll look for her and see where she went."
He took out a communication talisman from his sleeve and folded it in two. The white talisman floated in the air as light as a bird. Jingyuan stretched out his finger and flicked it, and the communication talisman fluttered over the courtyard wall and flew towards the northeast.
Although it was not the first time for Qiuqiu to see it, and she could even use a relatively basic communication device such as a communication talisman, she still felt that this world was magical.
The communication charms have different effects depending on the production methods and materials. Qiuqiu has seen high-end products that can send messages thousands of miles away. Of course, Jingyuan does not need to use such luxurious things now, and Jinglan has definitely not gone far.
, this kind of talisman is effective within a radius of dozens of miles.
Jingyuan watched the magic talisman fly away, turned to Qiuqiu and said, "Go to bed quickly, it's getting late."
Qiuqiu tightened her clothes a little tighter: "It's okay, I can't sleep either. Let's wait with my senior brother for a while."
After a while, the communication talisman fluttered back again. Jingyuan took the talisman, read the message left by Jinglan, and said with a smile: "Your senior sister will be back soon, don't worry. She said she saw a herb.
So it took a little time."
As long as nothing happens.
But Qiuqiu also feels very sorry.
What a great opportunity, senior sister didn't seize it. If she and senior brother were alone tonight, we would definitely have a lot of topics to talk about. But in the end, she went to dig up herbs - what a waste!
