Chapter 106 Pearl
The two didn't stay in the room for long, Lu Qi came in with a basin of cold water to wipe his face, and then they left the room, planning to go to the main room and wait to see if any NPC came out to contact them.
I didn't notice it before, but now I walked through Shen Qingcheng again and found that many places outside were covered with dust, and there were many spider webs hanging on the corners of the walls. A striped spider like a zebra was lying patiently in the center of the web and waited for the rabbit.
He guessed that the reason why the room was clean was that Lu Qi had cleaned it in advance. He turned around and asked, and it was indeed so.
The other players seem to be staying in their own rooms, except for the sticky and intimate sounds of the young couple outside and the sound of Aunt Huang who dislikes the dirty house, everything is quiet.
Shen Qingcheng wondered, "Why do you think they insist on kissing outside?"
"Could it be that there is more feeling under the tree?" The tone was full of eagerness.
Lu Qi grabbed his hand, as if he could let someone settle down.
He said softly, "Someone came in."
is the third person.
If a young couple came in, Lu Qi would directly say that they came in. Of course, it is more likely to say nothing.
Shen Qingcheng realized this, and looked sideways to the outside of the dam.
After the young couple came in with a shy, dissatisfied expression, a woman in traditional costume followed.
This woman is about the same age as Aunt Huang, but her personality is quite different.
She has an overly majestic face, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and high nose bridge, without a smile on her face, and she has an aura of calmness and prestige.
After the woman came in, she glanced lightly at Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi who were standing in the main room. The young couple who came in also stood next to the two of them whether it was intentional or not.
The woman said: "I am the patriarch of the village, all of you should be here, tell them to come out and I will tell you a few words."
Li Jiao, who was playing with her hair boredly, snorted, and hugged her boyfriend's arm. Who is going to be dismissed by this commanding tone?
So Feng Tianrun, who was about to move his feet, was tied up in place.
The matriarch frowned, and her serious face looked even more majestic.
"Oh, it's been a long time since anyone lived in this house, and the ashes swept out can be used to build walls!" Aunt Huang came out with a basin of dark water.
Seeing five people inside and outside the main room, she poured out the dirty water without stopping, "Is this the beginning?"
Then without the matriarch speaking, she raised her voice, "Everyone is out, everyone is out, the game has begun!"
The sound is very penetrating.
After finishing this, Aunt Huang put down the basin and gathered in the main room with the players who came out of the room one after another.
Shen Qingcheng and Aunt Huang are the last batch of players, so the number of players in this instance is 10.
Everyone behaved calmly. Those who can live to the present have more or less experienced a few dungeons, and don't need others to spread the situation like newcomers.
Inside, Shen Qingcheng saw an acquaintance, short in stature, ordinary in appearance, with dark eyes, it was Huang Pingwei who had dealt with in the ancient tomb.
His lips were pale, as if he had been seriously ill, and he didn't hide his hostility when he glanced at Lu Qi.
Shen Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, and asked him to say that Lu Qi was so kind and Huang Pingwei would be so arrogant, because the other party was sure that he would not take the initiative.
And this person obviously has no memory about him, so he didn't pay much attention to him.
Seeing everyone present, the female patriarch said in a deep voice, "I am the patriarch of the village. I will arrange for you to visit artificial pearl cultivation."
"Then how do we solve the meal?" A player asked.
"Come to my house to eat tonight, and I will clean up the dust for you. Afterwards, someone will deliver the food three times a day," the matriarch said, shifting her gaze to the player, "Any questions?"
There are a lot of questions, but I don't have any clues and don't know what to ask, so no one asks again.
The matriarch: "Everyone settle down first, I will have someone pick you up during dinner time."
Aunt Huang was in a good mood when she heard that she was able to have dinner at the patriarch's house in the evening. Seeing that the matriarch was about to leave, she enthusiastically waved goodbye, "Gudebai, let the patriarch go!"
Before going out, the matriarch stopped, "I would like to advise you, don't walk around casually, not everyone in the village welcomes outsiders, especially couples."
This clearly refers to them!Li Jiao raised her brows and was about to explode, so Feng Tianrun stopped her early.
Shen Qingcheng: "Do you not welcome foreigners or couples from other places?"
"Outsiders are not welcome, let alone outside couples."
As soon as the matriarch left, Aunt Huang changed her friendly attitude and said in a veteran manner, "Most of the story line revolves around outsiders and couples."
"It's not okay to discriminate against people from other places," she said, shaking her head, then turned around and walked out in a hurry, "You guys talk, I'll go back and clean the house first, ouch, that house is too dirty!"
The young lovers left in the main room fighting and fighting, Li Jiaoxiao beat Feng Tianrun with his fists and asked him why he didn't let her speak just now, Feng Tianrun repeatedly begged for mercy.
Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi discussed about going around the neighborhood, and when they got to the door, they heard Huang Pingwei's voice, "Lu Qi, we meet again."
Lu Qi didn't want to pay attention to it, but Shen Qingcheng turned around and said with a smile: "Friend, do you want to see a picture?"
Huang Pingwei glanced at him warily.
Shen Qingcheng said to himself, "I see that your eye bags are swollen and your steps are sloppy. I'm afraid you have paid a lot of public rations in the near future. The last dungeon was a lot of good luck!"
"The lip color is pale, and the seal is black. I guess the target is a beautiful female ghost," he sighed, his eyes surprised, "friend, how does the female ghost taste?"
At that time, he asked the ghosts in the recording center to rewrite the script and rearrange the NPCs in the opposite play, and he didn't know what kind of seductive ghost Huang Pingwei arranged for.
Look, it sucks people dry.
Huang Pingwei's complexion was pale and green with anger when his embarrassment was exposed.
Shen Qingcheng dragged Lu Qi Shi away abruptly, hiding his achievements and fame.
Walking outside, he said to Lu Qi: "If a ghost comes tonight, it will either look for me or Huang Pingwei, believe it or not?"
"letter."
"I knew you didn't believe me, so let's make a bet."
Lu Qi looked at him silently, and Shen Qingcheng looked at him without avoiding it.
In the end, Lu Qi had no choice but to say, "Okay, what are you betting on?"
Shen Qingcheng bent his lips, "If you lose, I want to kiss under the tree."
Lu Qi: "..." Is it too late to repent now?
[Go, pick him up, ten or eight! 】
[Not just kissing, you can doi if you want, hee hee]
[I think it's obvious that the seven gods are beautiful and blessed [jealousy]]
[Why does the beauty say that if there is a ghost, she either looks for him or Huang Pingwei?The beauty has a vampire physique, why is Huang Pingwei? 】
[Well, it's better to "eat"? 】
In the evening, when the sun was setting on the other side of the mountain, the matriarch said that the person who picked them up for dinner came outside the house, a taciturn young man in national costume.
At this time, Aunt Huang had already cleaned up cursingly and changed into a red floral dress, Shen Qingcheng and Lu Qi also went back to the room to rest for a while.
The ten players followed the young man to the patriarch's house. On the way, Feng Tianrun and Li Jiao still hit me and kissed you, playing and making out from time to time.
Aunt Huang is a person who can't hold back, she couldn't help chatting with the young man after walking two steps, but the young man who didn't seem to reject them never spoke, as if she didn't hear Aunt Huang's voice.
The other party didn't answer, so Aunt Huang had no choice but to shut up embarrassingly.
After walking for about 10 minutes, the artificial lake that Lu Qi mentioned and the houses where the villagers lived appeared in everyone's sight.
The fishy smell of water in the air was getting stronger and stronger, mixed with a rotten smell, Li Jiao frowned and fanned the air with her hands in disgust, "Does the place where you grow pearls smell like this?"
She is very interested in pearls, so thank you for not being sensitive to this smell.
The young man who had been silent all this time suddenly stopped and looked back at her, his dark eyes were a little leaking under the unclear light.
Li Jiao was taken aback, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Feng Tianrun held her little hand skillfully and softly comforted her.
The young man withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, "It's here." Then, regardless of whether everyone understood or not, he turned around and disappeared into the night.
A few minutes further ahead is a small building with a large area. The players glanced at each other and walked over under the leadership of Aunt Huang.
It is indeed the home of the matriarch, and the other party has prepared a table of good dishes and is waiting for them sitting on the main seat.
Shen Qingcheng looked at the interior furnishings of the building, and found that the decoration of the house was very luxurious and exquisite, no matter the size or the small details.
The handicrafts of large pearls and clamshell carvings can be seen everywhere, with rich colors. In addition to being full of ethnic customs, it also gives people the impression that this family is very rich.
Li Jiao stared at the big pearls, her eyes almost glowed, and the matter of complaining to the matriarch about the impoliteness of the people she arranged was immediately forgotten.
The female patriarch said: "There are not many other things in the village, but there are a lot of pearls. If you like, you can pick one each when you leave later."
Li Jiao quickly nodded and agreed, "Okay, okay."
Afterwards, the players sat down in a circle in front of the big round table under the greeting of the patriarch. The matriarch sat on top and picked up chopsticks, "A little local food, you can feel free."
There are more than a dozen dishes on the table, except for the vegetarian dishes and meat, all of them are mussels. The fried oil is bright, and the soup is light in color, all of which are fragrant.
The matriarch picked up a piece of milky white clam meat and stuffed it into her mouth, her teeth made a faint creaking sound as she chewed, the grease spilled out between her teeth, and her majestic face showed an indulgent expression of satisfaction.
The clam meat is very fragrant.
"I heard that clam meat nourishes yin and nourishes yang, brother, don't eat it." Shen Qingcheng raised his head and said slowly to Lu Qi, the man turned his head, and he lowered his eyes shyly, "I don't think my brother can use it."
The rest of the players on the table looked at him one after another, and it took them a long time to figure out what he meant.
These two men turned out to be a couple!
The faces of the people were complicated, the matriarch seemed not to hear what he was saying while eating the meat, Huang Pingwei looked back in disgust, as if his eyes would be dirty if he looked at it more.
Shen Qingcheng looked at him the next second, with a smile on his face, "Mr. Huang, I think you can eat more to nourish your kidneys."
And call on everyone to save more for Huang Pingwei to eat.
Some sensitive players turned their chopsticks towards the vegetarian dishes, no matter whether there was a problem or not, just in case.
Huang Pingwei only thought that the other party was disgusting him, and snorted coldly, "Why, you know so well whether I need to invigorate the kidney because you have tried it yourself?" It seems that Lu Qi, the person you are looking for is not very good.
Shen Qingcheng smiled, "I'm not good at anything." Only someone like Lu Qi can do it.
Whether Huang Pingwei was satisfied with this meal or not, Shen Qingcheng didn't know, but he was quite satisfied with it anyway.
Before leaving, the matriarch took out a box and opened it for them to pick. The box was full of pearls of different colors and sizes, and the smallest one was as big as a thumb.
The pearls are full in color and lustrous in texture, and they are crowded together, as if they have magical powers, and immediately grab everyone's attention as soon as they appear.
