Following that, a young girl wearing a butterfly dress walked out. She was about sixteen years old and looked a little thin. She had a delicate face, but she was beautiful and moving. She had an innocent expression and her eyes looked a little timid.
Haiqi looked at the young girl in front of him and felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart. He couldn't help but say,"What's your name?"
" Me?" The girl said timidly," My name is Ru Ru, the one with the grass word. You can call me Ah Ru. What about you, brother?"”As he spoke, he rubbed the corner of his clothes and asked with his head lowered.
After Haiqi said it, Aru timidly called out,"En, Hai..." Hello big brother, hello big sister Xiao."
"You don't have to call him big brother. You can call him Dumb Pig or Big Rock." Yu Xiaoxiao smiled at her.”
The young man's eyes lit up." You're called Big Stone too? I'm called Stone too. So you have so many names. You didn't tell me just now."”
Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her laughter was like a blooming flower, filling the air with its fragrance.
Haiqi rolled his eyes, but Aru said,""Big Sister Xiao, you look really good when you smile. You look much better than Senior Sister Liu.”
Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel happy after hearing that. She smiled and said,"Of course, that Liu whatever Senior Sister Laozi is all a fart. He's not even worthy of carrying a lady's shoes.”
Shi Tou hushed her and said," Don't let Senior Sister Liu hear us. Otherwise, we'll be done for. I heard that she's a noble and arrogant person. She's the number one core disciple and publicly acknowledged as the number one beauty of Ink Peak Tower. She's very powerful."”
"What's there to be afraid of?" Yu Xiaoxiao snorted."If you're bullied in the future, tell me and I'll help you beat them up."”
At this moment, a voice came from afar." Shi Tou, Ah Ru, why aren't you two cooking quickly? Why are you slacking off and chatting? If dinner is delayed, let's see who can bear the responsibility."”
"Got it, Supervisor Gao..." " That's right!" Shi Tou replied loudly." That person just now was Supervisor Gao. He's very fierce. Don't let him catch you in front of him in the future. Otherwise, you'll be beaten and scolded."”
Hai Qi nodded." Yes, we'll be careful. Tell us about our work."”
Under the lead of Stone, Hatch followed him into another house. Inside, there was a mountain of firewood, and the logs were evenly sized and stacked neatly.
Stone took out two giant axes from behind the door and handed one to him.""Can you split the firewood into four later?”
" Of course," Haiqi said with a smile." I learned it from my grandfather when I was very young, but it's been a long time since I've split it."”As he spoke, he took out a log and placed it upright. The axe brought with it a strong wind and hacked down."Pa La…" The log split into two.
Shi Tou clapped his hands and smiled foolishly. He also picked up a log and started to chop it. For a moment, the small house kept cracking.
" Stone, how long have you been here?" Hatch asked." Do you chop firewood here every day?"”
" Yes," Shi Tou said sadly," I don't know how long I've been here. In short, as far as I can remember, I grew up in Black Peak Tower. My masters said that my talent was too poor, and my comprehension was also very low. I couldn't learn martial arts, but they couldn't bear to let me wander around, so they took me in here to help. I know that I'm also very stupid. I don't know where to go even if I go down the mountain, so I can only stay here."”
"Many people have changed here, and they change often. I'm the only one who hasn't left. Then, a few years ago, a girl called Ru Ru came. She was also alone. I heard that she grew up wandering in Jianghu.”
" En." Hai Qi thought of his own background. Although he had no parents, he still had a grandfather. His daily life was tough, and he made a living by fishing. However, he also had a strong sense of kinship. Compared to these two young men and women who had no one to rely on, he felt a little more warm and cold in the world. For a moment, he couldn't help but miss his distant relatives.
……………………………..
"Sister Xiao, help me look after the fire. Don't put too much firewood. En, I'll ask Shi Tou to bring some firewood over.”"Remember not to put too much firewood in."”
After Ah Ru left, Yu Xiaoxiao felt an inexplicable anger in her heart. Thinking about her status, she thought that no one in the world could rival her. This small Black Peak Restaurant actually arranged for her to cook. If it wasn't for that brat, she would have burned this place down long ago.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Seeing that the firewood was about to be extinguished, she directly threw in a large bundle of firewood. She felt that it was not enough and continued to throw it until it filled the hole.
Haiqi and Shi Tou each carried a bundle of firewood and pushed the door open. The place was filled with smoke, and it was hard to see who was inside. There was only a violent cough. Haiqi quickly threw away the firewood and rushed in. He carried Yu Xiaoxiao out and asked,"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. What are you doing?" Yu Xiaoxiao struggled free. I was just trying to see if I could burn the firewood properly without any cultivation. I didn't expect this rotten fire to be so difficult to burn. It's really frustrating.”
Hatch saw that her face was ashen again and couldn't help but laugh.""If you don't know how to ask, then ask. Let's see if you can still show off. Look at your face in the mirror.”
Yu Xiaoxiao walked over to a water tank beside her and stuck her head out to take a look. Hatch, I quit. Let's leave."”Her voice was a little tearful
When Hai Qi heard this, he revealed a dissatisfied expression and said seriously,""Don't be naughty. You can quit, but I still want to continue. This bit of hardship is nothing. You can't even endure this bit of hardship if you follow me.”
"Who says I can't endure hardship?" Yu Xiaoxiao said angrily."You said I can't do it well, but I'll do it well for you to see."”As he spoke, he rushed into the thick smoke.
" Aiya," Ah Ru said," This is bad. I have to help her."”Hitch and Stone followed them in. They finally lit the fire.
Not long after, Ah Ru gathered her courage and carefully opened the rice pot. She tripped over it with a spoon and saw that her bitter face was about to cry.
" What's wrong?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.
"Not good, the top is not cooked, the bottom is burnt…" Ah Ru answered with tears in her eyes.
"S-sorry," Yu Xiaoxiao said apologetically,"Shall we cook it again?"”
" It's too late." Ah Ru's eyes were filled with tears." Chief Gao will kill us."”
At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside." Ah Ru, is the rice ready? Everyone is waiting to eat."”
"What should we do?" Ah Ru looked at everyone helplessly.
Yu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth." Don't worry about it. They can eat it or not. If anything happens, leave it to me. Let them take it."”
Seeing the pot of rice being carried out by the five big men, everyone felt a strange feeling in their hearts. Haiqi looked at Yu Xiaoxiao helplessly and heard her say,"Ah Ru, is there any kitchen nearby that can cook delicious food…"
Shi Tou's eyes lit up. He licked his lips and said excitedly,""Yes, yes. After you go out, turn left, then turn right and go straight. There's a sign called Royal something. I don't know. The food there is very fragrant. It's all cooked for core disciples and high-level people. It's not like here where we only cook. Moreover, it's only for disciples who have just entered the sect and handymen.”
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded. "Wait for me here, I'll bring you some good stuff later."”Haiqi wanted to stop her, but he couldn't see her anymore.
"Which life did I burn such a high incense stick for? How did I get so lucky to meet such a difficult person?”
Ah Ru widened her eyes and asked,"Sister Xiao ran so fast. What did she do?"”
"You'll have good food later," said Hatch with a bitter smile.”
Stone clapped his hands and said,"Good!" I like delicious food the most!"
Not long after, Yu Xiaoxiao returned with a full load. As if she was performing a magic trick, she took out two pots of old wine and a few plates. On the plates were all kinds of fresh vegetables, and the intoxicating fragrance floated in the air. Many unknown vegetables were also unheard of.
Shi Tou snatched the most stack and then hugged a pot of wine. He smiled and said,"" I want these two." Before he finished his sentence, he had already disappeared. His speed made Yu Xiaoxiao speechless.
Ah Ru said,"Sister Xiao, don't be offended, he's just like this."”
"Hehe, it's fine. If it's not enough, I'll go get it.”As he spoke, he distributed the food to the two of them and took a stack for himself. Everyone then started eating in the woodshed.
They ate their dinner with relish, but the people outside were complaining.
"F * ck, what kind of dog shit is this? Even shit tastes better than this. It's fine if there are fewer dishes, but the rice is also cooked nondescript.”
"Hmph, you can still eat the top layer. When I eat cornbread, it can't be any darker than the bottom of a pot.”
"What are you guys talking about? I'll just scoop out a bowl of white rice. The rice hasn't even been cooked yet. I grew up eating rice."
For a time, the lower-level outer sect disciples and those who did odd jobs cursed endlessly, shouting that they wanted to complain about the logistics side…
In the elegant room, there was a woman and two men sitting at the dining table besides Lu Yuntian and Yan He. The woman was dressed in green, which was as dark as ink. Her beautiful face was noble and cold. Her face was as cold as ice, and her eyes were cold. No one dared to look at her directly. The two men looked very similar. One of them was dressed in black and the other in white. Their faces were also extremely handsome. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that they were brothers.
Lu Yuntian stood up and said with a smile," I'm fortunate enough to be a core disciple. I hope that Senior Sister Liu and Senior Brother Liu will take care of me in the future." Tonight, I have already ordered people to prepare high-quality wine and dishes for everyone. Please enjoy yourselves.”
"Serve the dishes…" He waved his hand and saw a few girls outside the door. They placed the plates on the table and opened the thermal cover. Not long after, the dishes were served. The fragrance filled the entire room, intoxicating the mind.
Lu Yuntian sat down and spread his hands." Senior Sister Liu, these are your favorite Red Lotus and Cistanche in the Snow. I ordered them to be made. Senior Brother Liu, this is your favorite Yu Manxiang and Longquan wine."”
"En, little martial sister, you won't be missing your hibiscus egg either.”
Yan Daihe smiled happily and said,"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Lu Yuntian smiled in return. However, he heard Senior Sister Liu say,""Eh, Junior Brother Lu, Red Lotus One-Line-Sky, where's Red Lotus? Cistanche flowers in the snow, what about flowers?" As she spoke, her cold face gradually darkened.
"Lu, are you playing with me? Do you think I, Liu Xueyan, am easy to bully?”
Lu Yuntian was caught off guard." No, no, no. Yuntian wouldn't dare…"
"Junior Brother Lu, is this Dragon Spring Wine or Dragon Spring Water? Are you going to use this to send us away? Are we, Liu Yiren and Liu Yidong, so easily bullied?”The man in black said coldly," I've learned a lot today. Don't be so arrogant just because you've become a core disciple. I, Liu Yiren, am not just for show."”
" And I, Liu Yidong," the man in white stood up and said.
" It's not like that." Even though Lu Yuntian was usually calm and collected, he had lost his composure at this moment and was a little flustered." Listen to my explanation. There must be some misunderstanding. I might have been framed by someone else."”
Yan Daihe added," Senior Brother Lu must have been framed by someone else. There are many disciples in Inkwind Tower, and there are all kinds of people. Some people are too jealous and are dissatisfied with Senior Brother Lu's promotion to the core. It's normal for them to frame and make things difficult for him.”
"Besides, if Senior Brother Lu really does this, it won't do him any good. You guys more or less understand his character. Do you really believe that he would do such a thing?”
The three of them looked at each other, then at Lu Yuntian and Liu Yidong,""I don't care if you've been framed or not, but this is the only time. If something like this happens again, don't blame me for not informing you beforehand.”
Liu Yiren snorted coldly,"Let's go."”
After the three of them left, Lu Yuntian's face was as cold as ice. He clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were bloodshot with anger.
"I will definitely investigate this matter to the end and let the terracotta warriors die a horrible death.”He gritted his teeth so hard that they made cracking sounds, and his voice made people feel cold!
"En, I'll go with you. I believe you'll definitely be able to find out.”Yan Daihe looked at him with trust.
................
" I didn't see anything, really. We've been guarding the door all this time. Other than the chef, no one else has come in," the two disciples guarding the kitchen door of Royal Fragrance answered in a trembling voice.
" Two useless pieces of trash!" Lu Yuntian kicked them to the ground. When he walked into the kitchen, he asked everyone he saw and beat them up. Suddenly, the entire kitchen was filled with wails and howls.
He checked one kitchen after another, but there were no clues. Yan Daihe followed closely behind him. Seeing that he was so angry, she couldn't say much to dissuade him. She could only silently accompany him.
Lu Yuntian searched all the big and small kitchen, but there was no clue. The anger in his heart was like a raging fire, almost spitting out from his eyes. Yan Daihe sighed and comforted him,"Senior Brother, if it really doesn't work, then we shouldn't look for him anymore. It's not a good idea to go on like this.”
"No, I have to get to the bottom of this humiliation today. I don't believe that I can still be so free and happy after being bullied by me." Lu Yuntian pondered for a while and said,"I don't want to be bullied by you.""Where else have we not checked? We have to check everything today.”
Yan Daihe was stubborn and knew that his anger would not dissipate, so he could only say,"Since you want to finish the investigation, then do as you please. The woodshed over there hasn't been checked. The food cooked is for the lower class.
