Chapter 235 Snowfall Villa
Chapter 235 Snowfall Villa
This world is huge, with many strange people and things.
Lei Wujie felt that the person in front of him was very strange!
Sitting by the glacier, his body was covered with snow, holding a green bamboo pole in his hand, looking like he was fishing.
The reason why it looks like one is that there is no fish hook on the line, but a piece of grass is tied to it, floating on the broken ice.
The man who looked like he was fishing hadn't moved for half an hour.
Lei Wujie also squatted beside and watched for half an hour, and couldn't help but wonder if this man had frozen to death.
He was a little hesitant, wondering whether he should go over and give it a push.
Of course, the purpose was not to push the person into the glacier, but to see if the other person was still alive.
Just as he was about to take action, Lei Wujie suddenly jumped up as if he had seen a ghost, with his mouth opened so wide that a whole egg could fit through it.
The man shook the green bamboo pole, and a big grass carp weighing at least 17 or 18 pounds suddenly jumped out of the water, bit the green grass, and then was thrown up and jumped on the ice.
Damn, this can really catch fish?!
After being shocked, Lei Wujie's face lit up with joy: "Brother, can I borrow your fishing rod?"
Chu Zhao turned around and looked at the handsome Lei Wujie with a smile on his face. For the first time, he truly understood what clear stupidity meant.
As expected, he is Lei Hanhan!
"It's such a big fish, I can't finish it all by myself, so take the fish and follow me. There is an inn not far ahead."
Lei Wujie was about to speak, but he heard his stomach beating like a drum. He could only smile awkwardly and clasped his fists, saying, "My name is Lei Wujie. Thank you, brother."
"Brother?"
Chu Zhao smiled faintly, waved his hand casually, rolled up the fish and threw it into Lei Wujie's arms, saying: "Don't look at my young appearance, but I am much older than you, there is no problem for me to be your father."
"Really?"
"Otherwise, be careful not to kill the fish. Dead fish don't taste good."
"Oh, don't worry, senior."
Lei Wujie was speaking as he was slapped in the face by the fish tail, feeling quite helpless.
We arrived at the inn in Honglu Town and had a delicious fish feast.
As Chu Zhao was willing to make friends, after a meal they became close friends who could talk about anything, and they set out on the journey to Xueyue City together.
Amidst the heavy snow and wind, a rather shabby inn came into their sight.
Lei Wujie was immediately delighted: "Senior, there is an inn ahead."
"I'm not blind, I can see." Chu Zhao rolled his eyes and looked towards the dilapidated inn not far away. He thought that it would be faster to follow Lei Wujie than to find it on his own.
The name of the inn is Xueluo Villa, but it is obvious that the dilapidated inn in front is not worthy of the name of villa.
Lei Wujie choked, but didn't care. He continued with a smile, "I ate your fish yesterday, so I'll treat you to a meal today."
"Invite me to dinner?" Chu Zhao smiled and jokingly asked, "Yangchun noodles?"
Lei Wujie's expression froze, as if he had seen a ghost.
How did Senior Chu know that I was planning to eat plain noodles?
He lowered his head to look at his attire. The Phoenix Fire produced by Yuxiufang in Tianqi City was obviously very valuable. How could he look like a poor man who ate plain noodles?
Could it be that I look like I can only eat plain noodles?
"Senior Chu, you may not know much about plain noodles. In fact, plain noodles are also very delicious."
"No, you're wrong. I know plain noodles very well. Do you see the snow all over the ground?"
Lei Wujie nodded in confusion, not understanding the relationship between Yangchun noodles and Bai Xue.
"Take a bite and try it."
Lei Wujie actually grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his mouth.
"What is the taste?"
"It doesn't have much taste, just a little bit cold on the tongue."
Chu Zhao shook his head and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a hot commodity. As the saying goes, highbrow noodles, how can they taste good?"
"Senior, it's a hot commodity." Lei Wujie corrected seriously.
"Ok?"
"Ah, no, I'm not saying that you are a hottie. I'm saying that's called a hottie. My master always scolds me like that. It's not a hottie."
"It's all the same. Let's go."
Xueluo Villa is not a villa, but a very shabby inn. It is the only inn within a hundred miles.
It was not much warmer inside the inn, and was not even much better than outside. The windows were broken and could not withstand the wind, frost and swords, so they were simply left wide open to let the snowy scenery of the distant mountains come in through the windows.
The waiters put their hands in their sleeves, shivering, looking at the blowing snow outside, feeling extremely worried.
"It has been several months since we opened. If this continues, I am afraid our inn will have to close."
"I asked the inn owner to renovate the inn a long time ago to attract more business, but he didn't listen. Sigh~"
"What do you know? The shopkeeper said this is called elegance."
"I don't understand whether it's elegant or not. I just know that this cold wind makes me feel cold. A-choo..."
Xiao Se leaned against the window, listening to the guys' conversation, looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky outside the window, and sighed softly.
This sigh was as desolate as his name.
Elegant, that is indeed what he said.
He also said that people who travel will like this feeling, the feeling of the road being long.
But he knew very well that this was just an excuse. The inn was not doing well, so was he really going to sell it and run away?
Xiao Se was secretly worried, but suddenly his eyes lit up because two guests came to the window.
Wearing a blue shirt, he strolled leisurely in the garden, leaving no trace on the snow wherever he passed.
The other one was wearing a Phoenix fire material suit and looked a little silly.
But this is not important. What is important is the way the two are dressed. One can tell at a glance that they are disciples from wealthy families who are out for training.
In other words, these two people have plenty of money.
"We have guests."
Xiao Se called out lazily, but a smile flashed in his eyes.
The waiter who heard the shouting immediately came over.
"Oh, there really are guests."
"One was wearing thin clothes, and the other was even thinner. They couldn't even afford a cotton jacket. They didn't look like they had the money to stay in a hotel."
Xiao Se smiled faintly: "What do you know? Although the material of the blue shirt cannot be seen, it is well-cut and well-made, and the color is like green jade. Although green is cheap, this kind of jade-like green is not common.
Just looking at the cutting and workmanship, it is a craft worth no less than a hundred taels of silver.
Look at that silly guy again. The single garment he was wearing was made of Phoenix Fire material. If it wasn't a big shop like Yuxiufang in Beijing, he would have to sell the entire shop just to buy one piece of material.
These are not ordinary people, they are clearly two powerful guests, we must deal with them carefully."
After Xiao Se finished speaking, he straightened his equally valuable fur coat and walked to the door to greet the guests.
"Two guests, do you want to be a top-notch person or stay in a hotel?"
Chu Zhao paused as he entered the room and looked up and down at Xiao Se, who was bowing and greeting him.
Well, he looks good, worthy of being the second sister’s son. He inherited his second sister’s handsome looks, a bit like a combination of anime and TV dramas.
"Boss Xiao, are you thinking that these two people are well-dressed and look like wealthy people, and wealthy people always like to show off, so they can make a lot of money today?"
Ok?
How did he know I thought this?
At this moment, Xiao Se, like Lei Wujie, felt as if he had seen a ghost.
He raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and a strange sense of familiarity suddenly arose in his heart.
This made Xiao Se stunned. He had a good memory and knew clearly that he had never seen this young man in green who looked like an immortal, so where did this familiar feeling come from?
"Sir, you are joking. Snowfall Villa welcomes guests regardless of whether they are rich or poor."
Chu Zhao smiled faintly, looked at the layout of the inn, and shook his head: "The scenery outside can be called elegant, but your inn is not. Besides, not everyone on the road likes the feeling of being on the road. After experiencing the wind and snow, they would rather drink a bowl of hot soup, live in a warm and comfortable room, and take a hot bath to relax the whole body."
This time, not only was it desolate, but even the waiters felt like they had seen a ghost.
These words were clearly said by their shopkeeper in private, how could this young man in blue know them? Xiao Se looked at Chu Zhao again. He looked to be in his twenties, but he had an extraordinary demeanor. His appearance alone was enough to make him famous in the martial arts world. In addition, he had demonstrated his outstanding martial arts skills that left no trace on the snow... Who was this person and what was his purpose in coming here?
"Okay, stop guessing. I came to Snowfall Villa just to see you."
Xiao Se took off his disguise, his eyes flashing like lightning: "Do you know Xiao?"
"I know you. I held you in my arms when you were little." Chu Zhao smiled and said, "I'm hungry. Let's eat first. Bring out all the signature dishes in your restaurant. The little guy behind will pay."
Lei Wujie was stunned: "Senior, I pay?"
"What else? I have no money now, and didn't you just say you would treat me to a meal?"
"Can……"
"What do you mean by "but"? A real man should keep his word. In the martial arts world, loyalty is the most important thing. If you don't have money, you can just put it on the account. You are a young hero of Leijiabao, how can you go back on your word?"
Lei Wujie was shocked, feeling ashamed and hot-blooded at the same time. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, senior. I will invite you if I say so. Come on, come on, sit over here."
"Come sit over here too."
Xiao Se looked solemn. He nodded and followed over, sitting opposite Lei Wujie.
"How did you get hurt?"
Lei Wujie looked at Xiao Se with some curiosity: "Senior, he doesn't look injured?"
"That's because your realm is too low to see it. Boss Xiao's martial arts are not weak. If he hadn't been injured, he would be much stronger than you."
Lei Wujie hummed in surprise and looked at Xiao Se again: "He doesn't look like a master."
Xiao Se's face was gloomy, and his impression of Lei Wujie became even worse.
Do I look weak? What an rude guy I am, really annoying!
This guy in green shirt is even more annoying, and of course, also very frightening.
He hated people who were prettier than him, but Chu Zhao was much prettier than him and also knew his background, while he knew nothing about Chu Zhao.
"Let's not beat around the bush. Who are you, sir?"
"My last name is Chu, it's you..."
"I see!" Xiao Se interrupted Chu Zhao and suddenly said angrily, "I don't have any relatives with the surname Chu."
Lei Wujie looked at Xiao Se who was leaving with a wave of his sleeves, then turned back to look at Chu Zhao and asked, "Senior, are you relatives?"
Chu Zhao hummed, but because he was puzzled by Xiao Se's attitude, he didn't say much and started to think on his own.
Just then, a group of uninvited guests came to the inn.
"Have you heard that someone is transporting a valuable treasure from Hanshui Temple to the Western Regions?"
"Yes, it has spread all over the world. It is said that whoever can get that treasure can rule the world."
"I heard that the treasure is a peerless martial art."
"You are mistaken. She is clearly a stunning beauty."
"Come on, Hanshui Temple is just a Buddhist temple, where would such a beauty come from?"
"That's what the boss said."
As soon as these words fell, the door of the inn was kicked open from the outside with a bang.
Chu Zhao's thoughts were interrupted by this, and he frowned instantly and waved his hand.
A golden lion appeared out of nowhere, opened its mouth and roared.
Roar!
With a deafening roar, the lion suddenly pounced towards the group of strong men.
In an instant, a dozen bandits in coarse linen clothes disappeared at the door of the inn and were buried in the snow.
Lei Wujie was deeply shocked: "This is..."
"Taiyi Lion Technique!"
Xiao Se was also extremely shocked.
The Taiyi Lion Technique is the Taoist magic of Wangcheng Mountain, which means that the man surnamed Chu in front of him is from Wangcheng Mountain.
As far as he knew, his third cousin was practicing Taoism in Wangcheng Mountain and was not much younger than him.
As a genius who entered the free and easy realm at the age of seventeen, although his strength was greatly reduced due to injuries, his eyesight is still there.
The move just now was so light and effortless, and Xiao Se asked himself if he could break it even in his prime.
In other words, his cousin is much more powerful than him.
But I have to say that he has a really bad character. He actually tricked that silly boy from the Lei family into calling him senior.
Lei Wujie turned his head slightly to look at Xiao Se, and suddenly said: "The Taiyi Lion Art is the Taoist method of Wangcheng Mountain. It seems that the senior is a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain?"
Chu Zhao hummed and said, "I am a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain, but I have a high seniority in Wangcheng Mountain."
He is so high-ranking that even the head sect master Zhao Yuzhen has to call him "Junior Master Uncle".
Lei Wujie said "oh" and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Senior, do you have money?"
This train of thought… Chu Zhao really couldn’t understand it, but he still replied: “Lei Wujie, do you know why a scholar calls himself a poor Taoist?”
"Why?"
"Of course it's because I'm poor." Chu Zhao smiled as a matter of course and joked, "By the way, when you said you wanted to treat me to a meal, you didn't mean that you would treat me and I would pay, right?"
Lei Wujie shook his head: "No, no, absolutely not. I just want to lend you some money first, and I will pay you back when I become your disciple in Xueyue City."
"Now you have no money, and I have no money, what should I do?"
Lei Wujie thought about it and said tentatively: "Why don't we try other food now while the food is not served? I think Yangchun noodles are actually quite delicious."
Hearing this, Xiao Se suddenly spoke.
"The dish is already being cooked and can't be changed."
Xiao Se said, turning to look at Chu Zhao, and said in a cold voice: "I know you are a master of Wangcheng Mountain, I can't beat you, but if the matter of eating a free meal gets out, I'm afraid it will damage the image of Wangcheng Mountain, right?"
There have been people who dine and eat for free, but they still paid the bill in the end.
Because Boss Xiao is very good at subduing people with a stick.
With a rolling pin in hand, anyone who dares to come to Xueluo Villa to eat a free meal will have to crawl away in the end.
Boss Xiao is very good at using a stick. He once had a stick named Wuji.
But the situation today is different because he can't win.
Not only was he unable to beat the man he thought was his third cousin, but there was also that disciple of the Lei family who looked foolish and was actually foolish.
A disciple of the Lei family, he put away his sword and knives, but his skill with gunpowder was the best in the world.
If a real fight broke out, he wouldn't be injured by this bastard, but the best he could do was to rely on his best lightness skill, the Cloud-riding Wind Step, to dodge.
Chu Zhao turned around and looked at Xiao Se, and said thoughtfully: "I really don't understand why you hate us so much?"
"Because you watched people die without helping them."
Chu Zhao thought for a moment and asked, "Are you talking about your mother?"
"Yes, my master said that your father has a magical method that can save people even if they are seriously injured and dying. Your father clearly has the ability to save my mother, but he just let her die."
Xiao Se's tone was filled with resentment, and he finally said in a resounding voice: "I, Xiao Se, do not recognize him as my uncle, nor do I recognize any of your Chu family members!"
"My father?"
Chu Zhao was a little confused, but he soon understood the reason and couldn't help but find it a little funny.
"Did you misunderstand something?"
"There is no misunderstanding. It's just that your father didn't help me. I didn't even get to see my mother for the last time."
Chu Zhao shook his head and sighed: "My name is Chu Zhao."
