Chapter 85: Pulling the Wool
Chen Xiyi stayed in this farm alone for about ten days, and only then did Cheng Zhen and Cheng Lusheng, the master and apprentice come back.
The two of them had a greasy face, but they were injured. It seemed that they had encountered something on the way back.
Chen Xiyi hurriedly stood up, put the book down and rushed over: "Fellow Taoist, why are you so injured? Are you meeting a robber with a slim track on the road?"
When Cheng Zhen saw Chen Xiyi, he smiled awkwardly: "Oh, wait for me to change my clothes and talk to you, fellow Taoist, this time it can be said that the boat capsized in the gutter."
As he said that, Cheng Zhen was helpless.
Chen Xiyi naturally did not stop him. He asked this question just because he was just a polite person and did not take it seriously.
In his vision, Cheng Zhen had a little more demonic energy on his body. It was obvious that he had met monsters, and they were those monsters with little knowledge.
Look at the other party's appearance, he almost couldn't come back.
This is normal. Cheng Zhen went to the town to see the Feng Shui and geomancers for the outside of the Wang family. Naturally, he would not bring too many talismans and magic weapons. There were no demons and monsters around him, so he might not be able to meet them all year round, so it is normal to be ambushed and attacked.
And although the other party is embarrassed, he is actually very capable. He can still bring Cheng Lusheng back intact. You must know that if Cheng Zhen comes back alone, he is capable, but he will also bring a bottle of oil to come back together, and that is quite capable.
After putting himself in his shoes, if Chen Xiyi was in the same situation as Cheng Zhen, he would probably be injured. How could he still come back with a bottle of oil intact?
Cheng Lusheng also smiled awkwardly and hurried back to his house to change his clothes.
The two of them are basically the same as beggars.
"It's another fox demon, where did it come from?" Chen Xiyi looked at the experience of the process today, clearly showing that he was chased by the fox demon and escaped.
He also killed a fox demon before, but he didn't expect another one to jump out, which made it difficult for him not to think of a piece of it.
There is only such a big fuck in this place. It is considered Cheng Zhen’s mistake to be able to hide one. If there is another one, even if Cheng Zhen is not a Qi Refiner, his ability is not a good person. Otherwise, he would dare to say that he would subdue demons and eliminate demons?
‘Maybe both are from outside. There were two in the fox grave before. I killed one, and the other one was not there when I went out?’
‘This...it seems a bit possible.’
More importantly, judging from the same outfit as the beggar's outfit, the fox demon was obviously fighting in close combat, and it was impossible to beat them into beggar's outfits by illusion.
A few minutes later, Cheng Zhen returned with an awkward rather than polite smile on his face.
"Can fellow Taoist gain something in the near future?" Cheng Zhen asked with an intention to change the subject.
As a result, Chen Xiyi did not ask what the other party had encountered on the road. The other party did not explain, maybe he felt that he was embarrassed.
"The knowledge has increased greatly, but there are still many problems. I still need to solve my doubts with fellow Taoists." As he said that, Chen Xiyi asked about the problems he had encountered over the past few days.
Since Cheng Zhen intends to avoid the topic of being beaten into a beggar costume by a fox demon, Chen Xiyi is eager to do so. He can take this opportunity to let the other party answer his questions and questions.
When Cheng Zhen heard Chen Xiyi’s question, he thought about it and answered immediately.
【You have a conversation with Feng Shui Master Cheng Zhen, and the atmosphere is harmonious, Feng Shui Master Cheng Zhen’s favorability to you +1】
【You and...】
While the two of them were asking questions and answering, Chen Xiyi was constantly improving his Qi refining system, and the game log was constantly refreshing the text with increasing favorability.
It's useless though.
As soon as the two talked, it was the sun set. When Cheng Lusheng called for the two to have dinner, Cheng Zhen was able to escape: "Fellow Taoist, eat first, if there is any problem, I will talk about it after I finish eating."
Obviously, Cheng Zhen couldn't stand it anymore.
Chen Xiyi was still unsatisfied with this. I have to say that although Cheng Zhen did not practice qi and cultivate the soul, the solid knowledge in his mind was enough to show the other party's extraordinaryness.
"It's easy to talk about, it's easy to talk about." Chen Xiyi knew that these things should not be forced too hard, and it would be easy to get rid of the waters.
The two of them served on the table, with three dishes and one soup. Even if there was only one meat dish, it was already very good in this era. After all, some poor families may not be able to eat a meal of meat all year round.
"Fellow Taoist is a meticulous person, and I don't know if I can get used to it?" Cheng Zhen picked up a piece of meat for Cheng Lusheng, picked up a bowl and ate a bite of rice and asked.
Compared to Cheng Zhen, Cheng Lusheng ate the rice without saying a word.
Chen Xiyi smiled and said, "My fellow Taoist is not so rich and meticulous. Don't think I am a scholar, but I am also from a poor family."
Chen Xiyi had no problem with eating. Of course, he thought so before he ate it.
It was still a lot worse after the entrance. These foods were made by Cheng Lusheng, not as good as those chefs, let alone those foods he made in a large kitchen.
Fortunately, Chen Xiyi did not show it. He still had the qualities he deserved, and he pretended to be very delicious and ate in big mouthfuls.
You can't say it's not to fit your appetite or to show your unacceptable appearance in front of others. This is very impolite. You can't eat it if you can't?
And it’s just that my mouth is being tricked by the home game, not that what others make is unpalatable.
The level is actually still there, but it is not high.
"That's good. I thought my fellow Taoist could not get used to this meal, but I was waiting for the mistake." Cheng Zhen smiled and felt relieved. Looking at the other party's scholarly anger, he thought he would dislike it.
At the dining table, there was no sound of eating or sleeping, only the sound of eating.
I don’t know if it was the atmosphere or because there was an outsider Chen Xiyi, who was not easy to speak, the dining table seemed a little dull.
But for Chen Xiyi, it's good to be boring.
He was so boring that he had to eat quickly. After dinner, he had to continue chatting with Cheng Zhen.
There are some things that he can understand etiquette, but some things have to be clear and pretend to be confused.
For example, small things like foods that are not as good as the taste can be used to enhance your favorability, but you naturally have to stick them with shamelessness to build your own learning-friendly personality.
It may be a little abrupt at the beginning, but if it is too many times, the other party may be disgusted or get used to it. No matter which one can meet Chen Xiyi's needs.
It was obvious that Cheng Zhen also found out that Chen Xiyi was about to ask him for advice after dinner, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.
