When Jiu Zhimei shouted "Wait for me" to catch up, she always felt that the atmosphere between the two was very subtle.
The three randomly found a pub on the street and sat down.
As soon as I sat down, a beautiful and moving wine maid came over with the menu. Li Xin took it over and skillfully ordered table wine dishes.
"Would the guests sing or dance?" The wine maid took the menu and asked attentively.
"Of course it is!" Jiuzhimei replied excitedly immediately, and asked, "What about you, pretty sister, do you sing or dance?"
"Hehe~ Guess what?" Jiu Niang twisted her waist and went down with a smile, and the long braid tied with the red rope was swayed at the back of her head, very provocative.
Jiuzhimei's gaze followed her back for a long time before she reluctantly retracted it, and at the end she had to comment "On time!"
"Shut up." Xu Yan glanced at him coldly.
Jiuzhimei smiled and raised her hand to make a zipper action.
The food here is mainly grilled and served very quickly. After a while, a large plate of oily dishes was placed on the table.
Then a large pot of wine, a pot of vegetable soup, and a plate of fruit, the dishes are finished.
This jug is really big, placed next to Jiuzhimei, it looks bigger than his head. The wine glass was also wide and deep, and Li Xinyi couldn't handle it.
"Come on! Come on! It's full." Jiu Zhimei picked up the pot and poured wine for the three of them one by one.
Qing Lingling's liquid quickly filled the three cups. Jiuzhi lowered his head and Mei took a sip, his eyes lit up, and he gave Li Xin and Xu Yan a thumbs up and said, "Mmm~! It's delicious! Come and cheer!"
Li Xin touched him and took a sip from the cup.
The taste is a bit rushed, but not unpleasant to drink.
Xu Yan ignored him, and took care of himself and took care of the dishes.
Jiuzhimei didn't care either, and drank happily while eating.
He was even happier when four or five pretty girls in colorful dresses came to the table to sing and dance.
"Boss, drink it! This is the last meal, give me some face!" Jiuzhimei, who had put a "drunk" buff on his forehead as he wished, suddenly slapped the table and stretched out his hand to pull Xu Yan side road.
Xu Yan paused.
Jiu Zhimei was still pulling him and said, "We're in the south, the boss is in the east, and we haven't been able to get in touch for a long time, right?"
Xu Yan shoved the person away mercilessly and pushed him back. After being silent for a while, he suddenly reached out and picked up the cup, frowning with a solemn expression, and turned to Li Xin.
Then, with this solemn look as if he was in court, he handed out a wine glass and touched Li Xin, then raised his head and drank.
"Oh! A dry mouth!" Jiuzhimei shouted and applauded.
Xu Yan, who was about to put down the cup, paused for a moment, and then drank the whole big cup seriously.
"Okay! The boss is bold!" Jiuzhimei applauded desperately.
With the action of swallowing, the transparent liquor flowed down Xu Yan's neck. Li Xin watched it for a few seconds, then lifted her head and drank the cup in her hand.
"Okay!!! Sister-in-law, let's go!!!" Jiuzhimei stood up with a wow, her hands turning red when she clapped.
This wine is strong, and after drinking such a glass, Li Xin felt that the environment in front of her was a little swaying, and her mind also felt a sense of sluggishness. She slowly opened the panel and saw that a "drunk" buff appeared.
After one cup, naturally there will be a second cup and a third cup.
So after more than half an hour, when Kerian came over, the three people at the table had already received a "deep drunken buff".
He found the pubs around here one by one, but luckily he found someone in the second one.
When he pushed open the box door and came in, Jiuzhimei was singing loudly and loudly with the wine girls, giggling and laughing.
Xu Yan sat at the table with a blank expression on his face and took a sip of his drink while Li Xin kept eating.
He came in and no one paid attention. There was a strong smell of wine in the box.
Not to mention the difficulty just went through, it was also not easy for you to come and go with me. Kerian, who bought the four smuggling places as Li Xin told me, said: "?"
With an unpleasant expression on his face, he hesitated for a while and walked towards Li Xin: "... Jiu Qi?"
"Yeah." Li Xin responded slowly, put down her chopsticks after a while, turned her head and smiled at him.
Usually Kerian often sees her smile, soft and lovely, faint, and beautiful, but she has never seen such a smile with the corners of her brows and eyes, and her little white teeth all exposed.
Extraordinarily brilliant.
Neither of them noticed that Xu Yan, who was on the opposite side, stopped drinking at this moment.
After being stunned for a while, Kerian asked carefully, "You... are you still awake?"
"... Hmm." Li Xin slowly put away her smile and answered again.
She just reacted a little slower, her control over her limbs was weaker, and her mind was still generally awake.
"Then... how much is this?" Corian looked at her rosy face for a while, raised her hand carefully, and extended four fingers to her.
Li Xin glanced at him indifferently.
This familiar look immediately awakened the blond boy's desire to survive, and he retracted his hand with a "swoosh".
"Get... Okay?" Li Xin asked slowly.
"Well, two gold coins per person." Kerian nodded.
Li Xin said "Oh".
After a while he asked, "What... when?"
"The man said that there will be a shipment to the south tomorrow afternoon, and there will be a freight team from the east in the morning three days later." Kerian replied in a low voice.
"Huh? Little brother, are you back? Come and have a drink!" Jiu Zhimei finally found that there were more people in the room, and immediately rushed over, holding a glass and wanting to drink with him.
Of course, Corian refused without hesitation.
Jiuzhimei didn't listen at all, holding the big jug on the table and placing it in front of him with a "bang", shouting, "Is it a man! If it is a man, drink it!"
When Kerian wanted to speak, he slapped the cup at the person's face and shouted, "Don't Bibi, Bibi is not a man! Drink or not—"
Kerian was so angry that after staring at him for a long time, he finally started drinking under the sentence "Is it a man?"
With the clamor in her ears, Li Xin ate the food on her own, when she saw Xu Yan suddenly stand up and strode over, sitting down beside her.
Li Xin looked at him suspiciously.
Xu Yan stared at her, and after a long silence he spat out two words: "... Cheers."
A large pot of wine was cleaned up by four people, and together with the four or five wine girls, they lay on the ground in the box.
…
"Hiss." The pain all over his body, especially his waist and abdomen, felt like he had been beaten hard. Kerian struggled for a long time to get up from the ground, propping up his temples, only to feel a splitting headache.
After a while, he recognized that this was yesterday's box, he staggered to his feet, walked over and pushed the window open, then found a chair and sat down.
The bright light came in from the window, diluting the smell of the cloudy wine and leftovers in the room.
There was only Jiuzhimei lying on the ground on the side of the house, Li Xin, Xu Yan, and the wine girls were all gone.
Kerian pushed the door open and saw two people eating breakfast in the lobby.
The smuggling method of mixing in the freight team is to stuff people into the middle of the goods, isolate the detection with special materials, and take them out in the freight car.
Xu Yan and Jiuzhimei left this afternoon, while Lixin and Kerian had to wait until the day after tomorrow.
The four were separated in the alley.
"Goodbye sister-in-law~ I will miss you!" Jiu Zhimei rushed up to give Li Xin a hug, but Xu Yan next to him raised his hand and grabbed the neckline.
"See you later." Li Xin said with a slight smile.
"Well." Xu Yan nodded, his dark eyes fixed on her appearance, and said solemnly: "...See you later."
After a brief farewell, the two followed the NPC away.
"Finally gone." Corian muttered in a low voice.
Li Xin glanced at him, "Let's go."
The car that Lixin and Corian "ride" was transporting some kind of wine, and large barrels were neatly stacked in the carriage.
The two of them carried a barrel each, and passed the security check smoothly among these wines.
The freight team crossed the Kea Grand Canyon with the continuous "crunching" sound of the wheels, and the two of them huddled in the dark warehouse and waited quietly.
I don't know how long it took, the car hood was suddenly opened with a "bang". Li Xin shrunk in the bucket calmly.
After a while of movement, two brief conversations rang in my ears.
One said, "Is it these two?"
The other replied: "Yeah."
— "Bang bang bang bang".
Turn around.
He kicked open the lid, and Li Xin came out and found that the two wooden barrels containing them had been thrown out and left on the side of the road.
"Unlock the map: Eastern Continent Mengzeye Forest Frontier."
As soon as the beep sounded in his ear, he saw a lush green forest.
There was a screeching sound behind me, and after a while I heard Corian's voice asking, "Are we going back to the east?"
"Um."
"Huh... that's great."
"Ding ding ding ding ding..."
A series of private chat prompts scrambled to ring in his ears, Li Xin glanced at them, there were thousands of them.
Purpura, Foxtail Buyan, Qishan Mountain Grass, Coldwater Fish... Almost everyone on the list sent her many messages.
"Let's go." Li Xin called out Chengyun and stepped on it while flipping through the pages.
There were too many messages, so Li Xin sent a group message, "I was working on a mission before, so it's inconvenient to contact me."
As soon as the message was sent out, there was a "Di Di Di" reply for several seconds.
[Portulaca]: ! ! ! Damn it, you finally cheated!
[Foxtail does not speak]: ... Well, just come back.
[Huwei does not speak]: But during your absence, Qi Lanyi and Nabi Chi have smeared you a lot, so you are mentally prepared.
[Qishan Mountain Grass]: OK, I understand.
[Flying Leaf]: Hmm. The next time it takes so long, let the gang know.
[Zheye]: By the way, when you come back, you can donate a little.
[Lenghuiyu]: I'm back (Celebrating the whole world.jpg). Oh, I know, hey, big guy, you went to the south, and the whole network knows about it.
[Lenghuiyu]: That video has exploded on the homepage for several days. Haha, you are so beautiful (saliva.jpg).
Seeing this, Li Xin paused and clicked on the forum page.
[Hot] [Transfer from the Southern Forum → Are you excited, the legendary marriage proposal of the century]: I heard a rumor that is not true or false... (8796352 reply)
This post firmly occupies the first position on the forum homepage.
Li Xin opened it.
A video was lost in the building, Li Xin looked at it, and it was the scene of the seaside rolling petals that day. The recording is quite clear.
1L/(Landlord) Origami Frog: You must have seen this video full of dog food in various places (big eyes.jpg). The landlord moved it again today, of course, not just moving the video.
The male protagonist in the video is not a secret, most people know it, Xu Yan, the No. 1 leader in the southern list. (big eyes.jpg) So... do you know the identity of the heroine
2L/Professional Scalp Treatment: Sofa.
3L / baabaa sheep: It is expected to explode directly.
4L/Wind and sun tan: take a seat and eat melon.
5L / Rabbit Jijiwaiwai: ... I seem to know.
6L / Asan who picks mushrooms: You know, say it directly upstairs!
7L/Pianyun does not speak: +1 is expected to explode soon.
8L/top lid escape: ... wouldn't it be the one I thought it would be
…
Gossip is always the unbeaten traffic in the forum, and the replies stack up quickly. The landlord's card was just right, and when the floor reached 100, he threw the news.
100L/(Landlord) Origami Frog: (Big Eyes.jpg) Did you watch the video again? romantic, right? Are you excited? Did the girl's heart burst again
but…
(Special image for major news.jpg) Only a very few people should know that the heroine of the video is from our continent.
When this floor came out, it could be said that the post exploded in an instant.
101L/Xingye Yinglong:
102L / Yellow Jackal: ?
103L/Gudong: ? ?
…
107L/Want to win the lottery quq: Another mouth full of farts and eyeballs, the landlord SB did not explain, and the cross-land system was not opened at all.
108L/Seven Gourd Little King Kong: ? ? ? real or fake? Our mainland? Who is it
110L/A Miao Miao: Follow-up of squatting.
L/An insider: What the landlord said is true.
115L / Guji Guji Mushroom Power: An insider was found upstairs
…
There was shouting in the building, and soon hundreds of floors passed.
Miracle Forum posts are sorted by total replies and replies per second. The more they quarrel, the happier the host will of course be. So he happily waited for them to quarrel for a while before issuing the third.
600L Landlord/Origami Frog: The landlady was also shocked when I got the news (cry.jpg)(cry.jpg), impossible! Why do people from our mainland go to the south? !
But the whistleblower told the landlord that he and the heroine were a gang and had seen her up close. ta told the landlord that not only did they look exactly the same, but also coincidentally, when this video appeared, the person in their gang just couldn't get in touch and had been missing for more than half a month.
(Thinking.jpg) When the landlord thinks about it, it all fits. It is very likely that this guy from our continent took some special mission and went to the south, which makes perfect sense!
601L/A Miao Miao: It is possible, so after a long time, who is the landlord talking about in our mainland
602L/Smile like a flower: Yes, who is it? plz say it! This skill must be used by a big guy with a name
603L / An insider: Let me give you a hint, a certain digital boss.
604L/Sweet Marmalade: Shit, I got it. Is that the one I thought
605L / Gudong: ! ! ! ! I know too!
606L/Marshmallow Candy: Nonsense, such an obvious reminder from the digital boss.
607L/Spring and Autumn is not ruthless: 1. But is it true, is that boss so beautiful? ? ? I was moved.
608L / I urge you to be kind: Upstairs, it is good to have dreams, but it is also necessary to have life to realize them.
609L / Confused: ? ? ? what are you guys saying?
610L/Applicator Spit Flame: Make good use of search. But the name of the digital boss is really clever 2333
…
Thanks to Chengyun's powerful flight speed, the two arrived at Hanyuan City in the afternoon the next day.
Li Xin used the time, and browsed the entire post.
The focus of the first 10,000 replies was still on "who is the heroine of that video", but later, it gradually turned to various revelations about her.
Li Xin didn't even know that she had so many "materials" to explode.
There are all kinds of people who throw dirty water, such as "bad personality, very domineering, always playing big names in gangs"; there are "bad personality, especially like to go around robbing monsters, and often killing people and stealing equipment"; there are also "yes" Duo Jingtian Da Green Tea likes to steal other people’s boyfriends”…
There are also some nonsense, such as a certain building who said that she "is a bisexual", and also said that "in reality, she is an 18th-tier star who accumulates money by playing games and brings money into the group"...
One by one, those with noses and eyes, and those with different viewpoints, were pinching the sky in the dark.
Li Xin looked quite cola, and gave a lot of likes.
In the whole post, there are thousands of versions about her "real identity" and "character", and the love history is so rich that it has been lined up since she was born, and the schedule is not enough.
All the way to the gate of Hanyuan City, when queuing up to enter the city, the corners of Li Xin's mouth under the cloak were smiling. This made Corian, who was following behind her, very nervous.
I haven't come back for several months, and Hanyuan City has changed a lot - to be precise, the players in these Hanyuan City have changed a lot. At first glance, the crowd was gray, but now everyone is dressed in bright and bright clothes, and the equipment on their bodies is also shining.
Long skirts, robes, cloaks, flower hats... a lively scene.
Before entering the city, the two were stopped.
At that time, an unassuming little man suddenly rushed out of an alley, rushed in front of them, opened his mouth and said, "Sir is waiting for you, please come with me."
As he spoke, he quietly handed out a small golden sign in his hand.
Kerian glanced at it and said to Li Xin, "This is Mr. Cary's."
Li Xin nodded and replied, "Let's go."
The little man walked hurriedly through the city with the two of them, and after a while, he came to a hidden courtyard.
It is hidden because the courtyard is at the end of an alley, and the gray door is so narrow that it is not conspicuous at all.
The little man stood at the door of the yard, lowered his head and whispered, "Sir, I brought someone back."
With a "squeak" sound, the courtyard door opened a gap.
"Please come with me." The little man turned back and called to Li Xin and the two of them, then pushed open the door and went in.
The door was so narrow that only one person could pass through, and Li Xin walked in front.
Just by looking at the various delicate flowers in the yard, Li Xin knew that her teacher must be here.
Marianne's cultivation of these flowers seems to have a special talent.
This courtyard looks inconspicuous from the outside, but the area inside is not small.
Passing through the flowerbed, Li Xin saw Augus waiting at the door with his hands behind his back.
He hasn't seen him for a few months, his figure looks thinner, his aura is very cold, his thin lips are tightly pursed, and his gray eyes are icy.
This cold aura softened the moment he saw Li Xin come in, and his eyes became much calmer.
"I'm back." He said softly.
"Long time no see, Augus." Li Xin smiled and quickly stepped forward to hug him.
Augus hugged her back and gently pushed her into the room: "Marianne is waiting for you inside."
"Welcome back, Jiuqi, Corian." Marianne, who was wearing a long dress, sat on the sofa. When she saw the two of them coming in, a gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face, "Come and sit."
"Teacher, is everything okay?" Li Xin walked to her side and sat down.
Marianne picked up the teapot with her long white fingers and poured tea for the two of them gracefully.
"It's all good." She smiled and said, "You guys have worked really hard."
"It's good to be back." Augs closed the door and sat down at the sofa table.
"Yeah, I can't contact you after the accident. My brother and I are worried." Marianne sighed softly.
"Have Mr. Dilanie and Ms. Kasanna been back?" Li Xin asked while holding a teacup and taking a sip.
"Dilaini arrived safely half a month ago, Kasanna..." Marianne shook her head with a worried look on her face: "No news yet."
"Well." Li Xin thoughtfully said: "The news I sent back before... How is the situation now?"
"There," Augers responded. "It's them."
Corian looked blank: "What news?"
Li Xin glanced at him, "Did you do it?"
"Not yet, but some measures have been taken to prevent them from leaving." Augs shook his head, pointed his index finger on the table, and said vaguely, "I won't move for the time being."
"Then..." Li Xin wanted to continue asking.
"Okay, Senior Brother, don't let them get busy as soon as you come back." Marianne interrupted her with a chuckle, raising her hand and saying, "In a few days, at least tomorrow, okay?"
"Yeah." Augs nodded without objection, and he almost never objected to what she said.
"I'm so glad you guys can come back." Marianne's green eyes looked at Li Xin and Li Xin with soft and gratifying eyes, "You guys are better than I imagined. Ninety-seven is, so is Kerian."
"Thanks to the teacher's teaching." Li Xin lowered her eyebrows and pursed her lips, smiling modestly.
Kerian was stared at by the approving gaze, and a blush gradually appeared on his face. He just felt that just for this moment of gaze, the hardships and hardships... it was worth it.
"It's really something worth celebrating for your safe return." Marianne put her hands together and said softly, "You're tired all the way? Go upstairs and rest, I'll prepare a rich dinner for you."
"Yeah." Li Xin and Kerian nodded in unison and stood up according to their words.
"Jiuqi." Marianne stopped her again, got up and said, "Before I left, I promised that I would give you a gift when you came back... Come with me."
Li Xin immediately followed.
Even with her pair of fluffy slippers, Marianne's walking posture is undoubtedly very beautiful, limping and agile, like walking on clouds.
