Chapter 108 Come with me
Chapter 108 Come with me
Jin Xiaoxiao is not pretentious. He can sleep in the woods, on the ground, and can go without sleep for days and nights on the trial road.
But he couldn't sleep on the streets where people were coming and going.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a little girl passed by.
This person was none other than Xiao Luo, the girl that Tang Yixin and the others had just met today.
When Xiao Luo saw that it was Tang Yixian and the others, he said with a hint of nervousness on his face:
"Why are you guys here? What is this?"
Xiao Luo looked at the Tang family disciples, then looked around, raised his playful eyes and said:
"Are you planning on sleeping on the streets?"
Tang Yixien thought, is it that obvious?
This is somewhat embarrassing.
Tang Yixian was wearing a snow-white gown shimmering with moonlight. He coughed lightly and said calmly:
"Rest in place..."
Xiao Luo covered his mouth with his hands, approached Tang Yixuan and whispered:
"Sir, it's normal to sleep on the streets. There are no inns in our town."
Tang Yixien pursed his lips and nodded.
The awkward feeling was a little better, but not much.
"It's so late, girl, you should go back quickly." He said softly.
It was so late, Tang Yixien felt that it was really unsafe for a little girl like this to be outside alone.
Xiao Luo rolled his eyes and then said:
"How about this, if you don't mind, why don't you stay at my house? It's better than sleeping on the streets."
Tang Yixien felt that it was inappropriate because there were too many of them.
In order to support his family, Xiao Luo goes out to perform in brothels every day, which is not easy.
He really didn't want to bother others.
Tang Yixian was about to refuse when he heard Tang Tianao's voice beside him:
"Okay. Okay, now you have a place to live. As for the money, don't worry, young lady, it will be there."
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes at this moment, and looked at Xiao Luo for a moment, and then seemed to have scanned him.
He said calmly and politely:
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, young lady."
"It seems that you are all friends of these young masters, so don't be polite." Xiao Luo's meaning was very clear. He was doing it for the sake of Tang Yixien and the others.
Everyone was very happy that they finally didn't have to sleep on the streets, and they happily started packing up their things.
Tang Yixien saw that Xiao Luo agreed readily, and since it was already like this, it would be difficult to refuse.
Jin Xiaoxiao's lips curled up slightly, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, she didn't have to sleep on the street.
Everyone followed Xiao Luo and walked towards Xiao Luo's home.
Along the way, the shops on both sides were closed and there were almost no people to be seen.
"People in your town go to bed early. Don't they like going out at night?" Tang Yixin asked Xiao Luo beside him tentatively.
Xiao Luo's expression darkened for a moment.
"It's not that I don't like it, it's that I'm afraid."
Not long after walking, Xiao Luo stopped at the gate of a mansion.
Tang Yixien didn't react at all.
"Okay, we're here. This is my home." Xiao Luo said softly.
...
Tang Yixien was slightly startled.
This huge mansion in front of me, is it Xiao Luo’s home?
Isn’t it said that you sell your art but not your body?
Didn’t she say she was doing it for a living?
Tang Yixien was just worried about how there would be enough accommodation for nearly twenty people.
Looking at the scale of the mansion in front of me, it is almost the same as that of the Sheng family.
It seems that you can't judge a person by his appearance.
"I didn't expect that the girl the eldest master knew could be such a big help." Xiao Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.
He had originally thought that if there was not enough accommodation, some of his disciples would live outside.
"Isn't it just knowing someone? Is it that important?" Yin Tu said with his hands on his shoulders, looking unconvinced.
"Why? It's better than knocking on the door and no one opening it." Sheng Qingye said with a chuckle.
Yin Tu looked gloomy again.
At this moment, the door of the mansion in front of him creaked open from the inside.
A woman who looked like a maid poked her head out from the crack in the door.
The maid was delighted to see that it was Xiao Luo, but when she saw a group of people around Xiao Luo, she was so scared that her face turned pale again.
"Don't be afraid, we are all friends."
Tang Yixien looked into the gate at this time.
The yard was pitch black, without a single lantern.
"What's the matter? You don't like to light candles?" Jin Xiaoxiao nodded humbly and asked politely.
Xiao Luo pursed his lips and did not answer, but just smiled and said:
"Everyone, please follow Xiao Luo."
Since they were just disturbing others, there was nothing to say. The disciples whispered a few words and followed him in.
There was dissatisfaction in Tang Tianao's eyes, but given the current situation, he could only endure it.
Everyone followed Xiao Luo into the depths of the yard, surrounded by shadows.
Tang Yixien also felt something was strange.
"Are you and the maid the only two people in this mansion?" he asked Xiao Luo who was walking in front.
"Yes, sir." Xiao Luo nodded.
Tang Yixien wanted to ask about Xiao Luo's parents, but he was afraid of touching on her sad memories, so he didn't ask any further.
Fortunately, the road was still visible under the moonlight.
After walking through a corridor, everyone came to the courtyard of a house.
"This is the courtyard where the guests live. If you don't mind, you can stay here today." Xiao Luo said in a sweet and gentle voice.
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Xiaoluo," said Tang Yixien.
Xiao Luo smiled and continued:
"Gentlemen, no fires can be lit in this town. Not even a spark can be allowed. Please forgive me. The maid will bring food in a moment. I will take my leave now."
Then Xiao Luo walked up to Tang Yixin, bowed slightly, turned around and walked out of the yard.
Sure enough, after a while, the maid came over with a tray, put it down timidly and left.
There were a few potatoes and a few pumpkins on the tray, all raw.
When the disciples saw this, they looked at each other in surprise.
But no one said anything, after all, they were just disturbing others.
Whatever the host gives is just a courtesy.
As a disciple of the Tang family, you still have to follow these etiquettes.
Tang Yixien looked at the food and his eyes softened slightly. Perhaps these were all Xiao Luo had.
He decided to go to the market tomorrow morning to buy some gifts and food for Xiao Luo.
"Master, fire is prohibited here. Are you saying this is the Fire Spirit Realm?" Jin Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes slightly and whispered.
Tang Yixian shook his head slightly and said in a low voice:
"This food is raw, which means there really can't be any fire here."
Could a place without fire be the Fire Spirit Realm?
"But...Master, there is a strong smell of fire in this town." Xuan Yuran said from the side.
"Fire? It has a smell?" This was the first time Tang Yixin heard of it.
"Hmm, a very slight burning smell." Xuan Yuran said softly.
Tang Yixien sniffed lightly.
I just feel hungry.
Sheng Qingye touched his chin, with a deep look on his face, and said:
"It seems that I can't eat grilled fish anymore."
Tang Yixien thought, even if there was fire, no one would want to eat his grilled fish.
