Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 633 What month does the sweet-scented osmanthus bloom?

Lin Jizheng was engrossed in listening, when suddenly he felt a chill on the back of his neck.

Turning her head, she met Lu Zhaoer's cold eyes.

"Why, is it itchy? Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Absolutely not."

"Then you are out of your mind?"

"I'm curious about Minghualou." Lin Ji shook his head and laughed, "There was also Minghualou in Qingyang County back then. a place of the same name."

"Is it just a coincidence?" Lu Zhaoer didn't care about it.

Lin Ji shook his head and said: "I have a good friend named Zhou Qian. He also participated in Minghua Building in Qingyang County back then. After he got married, he left Qingyang County and went to the Acacia Sect. The Acacia Sect is in Xiangzhou. And if Not surprisingly, his status in the Hehuan Sect is not too low now, and he told me that he had heard about the money-making method of choosing the oiran this month."

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoer's face showed a bit of contempt.

"Master Lin actually has such a friend?"

"It's just my subordinates in Qingyang County, everyone's situation is different." Lin Ji smiled wryly, "It's not like you don't know, I'm still a boy."

"Hey, I'm getting thicker now!" Lu Zhao'er blushed slightly, spat softly, and then said, "I have limited ability to intervene in the matter of Mengxianzong. As for the so-called Minghualou and you, I don't know yet. I'm not very interested in whether it's a real or a fake friend, I want to go back to my room to practice."

"I can vaguely feel the bottleneck of breaking through the day travel environment."

"When?" Lin Ji asked in surprise.

"I felt something on the way to Wucha Town, but I just encountered a bottleneck. I'm afraid it will take at least a year and a half to break through, but even so, I can't relax."

"After Wucha Town, you still want to go to Yangzhou with me, will it delay your practice?"

"Not really, this kind of thing can't be rushed, but you, be careful."

After the words fell, Lu Zhaoer gave Lin Ji a hard look, then went upstairs and disappeared.

After watching Lu Zhaoer disappear at the corner of the stairs, Lin Ji's expression gradually calmed down. He picked up the teapot on the table and drank it from the spout.

Seeing this action, the shopkeeper not far away looked helpless.

"Guest officer! You can't drink this black tea like this! Even if the Primordial Spirit cultivator is here, he can only taste it slowly!"

"Is there such a thing as hiccup?" Lin Ji put down the teapot and hiccupped.

The jug is already empty.

The shopkeeper said with a wry smile: "If you can't smell the Anshenxiang of the Buddhist school for a long time, then the Anshenxiang can only be used in the third realm at most, let alone this black tea?"

"Then what will happen if I drink it all?"

"I'll pass out on the spot! If you want to wake up again, let's say at least three or five days, at most a year and a half. Huh? Why haven't you fainted yet?"

Lin Ji heard the words, glanced at the teapot in his hand, and bowed to the shopkeeper.

"Maybe this tea doesn't have enough stamina?"

After finishing speaking, Lin Ji flipped his hands over, and there were more than 100 Yuanjing on the counter, and he walked towards the table where the oiran was discussed just now.

"Fellow daoists, how do I get to Minghualou?"

"North of town."

"Thank you."

After thanking him, Lin Ji left the inn quickly.

After Lin Ji had gone far away, Xiao Er came to clean up the table.

When passing by the shopkeeper, Xiaoer was a little surprised and said: "Shopkeeper, that customer drank a pot of black tea in one gulp, why is it all right? It's different from what you said."

The shopkeeper had already understood at this time, and he glared at Xiao Er.

"Don't inquire about what you shouldn't! Forget Miss Geng from Sansheng Cave a few months ago? She also drank the whole pot of black tea in one gulp, lay down on the spot and was taken back by the people of Sansheng Cave. I slept for half a month."

Xiao Er nodded repeatedly.

"Yes. But why is that gentleman all right?"

The shopkeeper lowered his voice.

"Because that gentleman just now is probably more powerful than Miss Geng."

Hearing this, Xiaoer's eyes widened immediately, and he didn't dare to inquire any more, so he left quickly.

The shopkeeper also pretended that this had never happened.

Looking at the Yuanjing on the counter who paid much more than the money for tea, vegetables, and house, he smiled and told the kitchen to add two small dishes to each table of the remaining guests.

In the town of Wucha.

Lin Ji strolled in the courtyard, but he didn't go in the direction of Minghualou, but wandered wantonly.

He walked more and more sideways, but finally stopped in front of an inconspicuous courtyard.

The courtyard was already far away from the bustling place of Wucha Town, and it was a bit remote, but the front door was cleaned quite clean, and the knocker on the door was polished black and shiny.

Besides, Lin Ji's attention fell on a big tree at the entrance of the courtyard.

This is an osmanthus tree. The osmanthus flowers on the treetops are already full, and a lot of them are scattered on the ground.

Get a little closer, and you can smell the light scent of osmanthus in the air, which is refreshing!

At this moment, the door of the small courtyard was pushed open, and a beautiful girl in her early 30s came out, holding a broom and dustpan in her hand, and walked towards the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

When she saw Lin Ji, she was slightly taken aback.

"This gentleman, why stop at my door?"

"This sister-in-law has a nice face, I feel like I've seen her before somewhere." Lin Ji cupped his hands with a smile.

Hearing that, Mei Jiao Niang's smile faded a little.

"My husband is at home, this gentleman please respect yourself."

Hearing this, Lin Ji couldn't help laughing out loud.

He cupped his hands again, closed the folding fan casually, and pointed to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree above his head with the folding fan.

"Sister-in-law, is this an osmanthus tree?"

"Of course yes."

"What month does the sweet-scented osmanthus bloom?" Lin Ji asked again.

The beautiful girl's expression froze, and the originally stern expression eased down.

"It should open in September."

"now what?"

"The first month."

Lin Ji smiled even more.

"Does my sister-in-law think I look good now?"

There was a little smile on the face of Meijiao Niang, she nodded and said: "Should I have seen it in Sishui County? Is it Lin Zhangling from Supervisor Tiansi?"

"It's me." Lin Ji replied.

"You came alone?" Mei Jiao Niang asked again.

Lin Ji thought for a while, and answered truthfully: "With a fiancée, but her cultivation has reached a bottleneck and she has to practice, and she can't intervene in this matter."

Hearing this, Mei Jiao Niang's smile gradually turned cold.

"She can't get in, what about you?"

The expression on Lin Ji's face gradually softened.

"Even if it can't be solved, it can always be done to save your life, Madam Fang?"

Mei Jiao Niang looked Lin Ji up and down for a moment, then her gaze stayed on the fan in his hand for a long time.

Finally, she nodded.

"Friend Daoist Lin, my husband-in-law has already said that you are coming."

"Yes, Mr. Fang left without saying goodbye that night, which really made Lin feel very sorry."

"He's in the house, go in and find him yourself." Mei Jiao Niang shook her head slightly, picked up the broom in her hand and began to clean.

What I swept were the osmanthus flowers scattered on the ground.

Lin Ji thanked her, then passed Meijiao Niang and entered this humble courtyard.
