Qi Jing staggered, was pushed to the front, and stood abruptly on a clearing, dazed.

In front of the clearing lay a person covered with straw mats, and next to him was a seven or eight-year-old child, dressed in tatters and covered in dirt, he couldn't even see what he looked like, except for a pair of bright eyes. Very, was kneeling with his mouth tightly pursed.

Xu Shi noticed the strange commotion in the crowd, he looked up, saw Qi Jing who was pushed to the front, got up from the ground with a single bone, Qi Jing knelt down in front of Qi Jing, bent deeply, and put his head on On the ground, he raised his voice and said: "Thank you for your kindness, young master. From today on, Mo Zhi is the young master's man."

Qi Jing was stunned, and took a step back subconsciously: "What?"

The child who called himself Mo Zhi raised his head and looked at him with eyes as black as deep pools: "Master, Mo Zhi is grateful for his help, and he can only follow him around, saddle up and back, and do the work of dogs and horses."

No, what's going on?What did he help?Why did he become a lifesaver out of nowhere?

Qi Jing was full of question marks, and suddenly heard the people next to him whispering: "This child is also poor. He was born without father and mother. He was finally adopted by Uncle Zhao. After two years of good life, Uncle Zhao is gone. Poor, poor !"

Another person said: "Poor? Poor, why didn't you take him home to raise him?"

The person before said hurriedly: "Then how can I do it? There are three young ones in my family and two old ones, and the family can't afford to eat. How can I raise another one?"

Another person laughed and said: "I don't think I can't afford it, do I dare?"

The man said: "Why don't you dare? Can a child still eat people?"

Someone sighed again: "Cannibalism is not good, but this child was born to conquer his father and mother, and the Mo family, and now he has killed the third uncle Zhao. I think it is the fate of the lonely star of that day. Who dares to take him in?" Yo!"

"What I'm saying is, no matter how pitiful it is, no one dares to gamble with their own lives."

Everyone was discussing, Xiao Mozhi didn't seem to hear it at all, he just stared at Qi Jing closely, like a wolf that has been hungry for a long time and is afraid that the prey in front of him will run away, his eyes are shining brightly .

However, Qi Jing knew that although the child tried his best to conceal it, he was still young, and the uneasiness and fear in his eyes could not be hidden.Unable to feel pity in his heart, he looked around and saw the broken mat on the ground next to him, with a pair of skinny feet protruding from under the mat, he understood what was going on in a flash, and he helped him up: "You want to Selling yourself to bury someone?"

Mo Zhi bit his lower lip tightly and nodded heavily. After nodding, he seemed to realize that this action was not very respectful to others, so he said a heavy "hmm".

Qi Jing looked at him for a while, then snapped his fingers lightly, and a guard dressed as an ordinary monk appeared beside him.

The people around saw that there was no excitement to watch, and they were afraid of getting angry, so they dispersed after a while. What if this young man didn't know, the kid surnamed Mo went crazy, didn't he want to trouble them?

Qi Jing ordered: "Go and help him bury him." Turning around, he turned to Mo Zhi: "You follow him, tell him what to do, and he will help you get things done."

The guard took the order and took Mo Zhi to deal with the matter.

But Mo Zhi stood where he was, looking at him stubbornly: "Mo Zhi is the son from now on, where is the son going, I don't know where to go."

Qi Jing has some headaches, if he is just an ordinary monk, it's fine, but he has a special status, and there are many crises in the palace, and he can't take care of himself, how can he let this child follow him into danger?Besides, the background of this child's life experience has not yet been clarified, so he will not easily risk himself and put a person who does not know the details by his side.It's not to blame him for thinking too much, it's just that he has experienced too many assassinations and dangers in recent months, and people who have always been careless have to be cautious.but--

Facing the child's cautious and expectant expression, his heart softened, and he couldn't bear it, he swallowed the words of refusal on his lips.After thinking for a while in distress, he had to take a compromise and said: "Why don't you follow him to bury your relative first, and let him bring you to see me after the matter is settled."

Mo Zhi was skeptical, looked at his face, and finally couldn't help asking: "Really?"

Qi Jing slightly raised his eyebrows: "If you don't believe me, you don't have to come back."

"Trust!" Mo Zhi said decisively, and repeated as if he was afraid that he hadn't heard, "Young master is a good person, I believe you!"

Qi Jing rubbed his nose, the good guy came too suddenly, so he was unprepared.

Seeing that Mo Zhi obediently followed the guards away, Qi Jing turned to look for Yan Zhilan.

Yan Zhilan was very conspicuous in his white clothes. Qi Jing saw him at a glance, and walked over excitedly and asked, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat something. I heard that there is a Xingchun Tower here, and the cook there cooks spirit fish." It can be called a masterpiece..." He babbled, seeing Yan Zhilan's expression of no interest, he didn't care, he directly grabbed his wrist and walked forward.

Yan Zhilan was stunned for a moment, seeing Qi Jing's calm and composed look, he thought to himself for a moment, if he pulled out his hand rashly at this time, it would seem that he made a fuss, so he let Qi Jing go.

The two stopped in front of Xingchun Building, Qi Jing stood in front of the building and was amazed, it was not time for dinner, the building was full of people, not to mention the overcrowding, even outside the building there were quite a few people standing The people waiting to eat are quite spectacular.

Qi Jing looked at the crowd full of people and felt regretful. If he had known this, he should have asked the guards to book a seat in advance. He finally made a trip out of the palace. If he just left, he would be really unwilling.After all, in the original "Xiu Tian", the food in Xingchun Tower was mentioned many times, which made him obsessed. He came here not only to find out Jin Li's whereabouts, but also to satisfy his appetite.

Maybe it's because the business of Xingchun Tower is too hot, and ordinary monks are used to it. Qi Jing found that although there are many people here, most of them are bought and taken away, and there are not many dine-in people. The store is also well versed in this, and the kitchen serves the dishes very quickly.Before long, it was their turn.

Qi Jing dragged Yan Zhilan inside and called Xiao Er: "Are there any seats?"

Xiaoer smiled and said, "My lord, all the private seats in the store have been reserved. How about finding a clean seat for you in the lobby?"

Qi Jing originally wanted to say yes, but swallowed the words, he quietly glanced at Yan Zhilan, who was dressed in white, and felt that it was the first time he invited someone to dinner so seriously, it seemed a bit awkward in the lobby. Not quite right?

While hesitating, Xiao Er looked at his words and said hurriedly: "How about this, young master, there is a private room on the second floor, and there is only one guest, so please go and ask that guest, would you like to share a table with someone?"

Qi Jing immediately beamed with joy when he heard the words, and stuffed the low-level spirit stones to Xiaoer: "Thank you."

Xiao Er went away happily, but came back after a while, and asked the two of them to go upstairs.

Qi Jing went in and took a look, and was very satisfied.

It is said that it is a table sharing, but in fact there is a screen full of flowers in the middle, which separates the two places, and each eats its own food without affecting it. Through the screen, you can only vaguely see the figure on the opposite side but not the face clearly. Avoid the embarrassment of strangers sitting at the same table.

Qi Jing saw that the other party was generous, so he naturally couldn't be stingy, so he said to Xiao Er in a voice that the other party could hear: "Xiao Er, I bought this guest's drink and food, and he will pay the bill after eating."

After speaking, he looked to the opposite side, and the person opposite him cupped his hands at him from a distance across the screen to express his gratitude.

"Okay!" Xiao Er responded with a smile, took out the menu at the same time, and asked, "Then guest officer, what do you think you want to order?"

Qi Jing looked at ten lines at a glance, and ordered a few dishes: "I want this, steamed sea bass, steamed meat with lotus leaf powder, braised spring bamboo shoots in oil, crystal dish hoof, roast goose, original vegetables in white sauce, spicy chicken diced... um, I want another one Stacked lotus cake, crispy, I will order these first, and I will order when I don’t have enough.”

"Okay!" Xiao Er swiftly put away the menu, and said courteously, "Then what do you want for drinks, my lord?"

Qi Jing asked him: "Just bring the best wine and tea from your place."

Xiao Er immediately smiled and said: "Okay! A pot of Lanyan tea! A jar of spring!"

Before Qi Jing could react, the person behind the screen let out a low laugh first, opened the folding fan with a swipe, and said with a smile: "Interesting."

Qi Jing's spiritual power is profound and his hearing is excellent, although the other party's voice is not loud, it fell into his ears clearly.He was stunned for a while before he realized that the name of this wine...Chun Yi Nong...what's with the inexplicable shame?Is there too much waste in his mind?

He raised his head and glanced at Yan Zhilan, who was sitting upright with a natural expression on his face, as if he didn't realize anything was wrong.

Qi Jing felt ashamed secretly, as expected he thought too much.

With a clear cough, he cleared his throat and said to Xiao Er: "Okay, that's all."

May I ask who doesn't like generous and easy-to-serve guests?Xiao Er responded with a happy face and went down.

Qi Jing and Yan Zhilan sat there, looking at each other speechlessly, the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while, so they had to pour a glass of plain water first, and drank it tastelessly.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Xiaoer to bring people up with drinks and food, and the table was full.

Qi Jing noticed with sharp eyes that there were some dishes that he didn't order, and pointed to those dishes suspiciously and asked the waiter: "What are these dishes?"

Xiaoer's eyes were narrowed with a smile, and he pointed his hand to the opposite side: "That young master asked you to use it."

Qi Jing looked at the opposite side in amazement, the person on the opposite side shook the folding fan lightly in his hand twice, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency has given me a meal, I can't repay you, so I have to borrow flowers and present Buddha as a token of gratitude."

When Qi Jing heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry, he waved his hands and said, "You're welcome."

The other party said again: "I look at your majesty, and I admire you very much. I don't know if I have the honor to make friends with you?"

Qi Jing: "Huh?"

The author has something to say: I have been waiting for a long time!Two more!mwah!
