Chapter 274: A Hundred Years Later, Restaurant Owner
The days are like running water, gurgling by.
A hundred years can change a lot. For many mortals in the world of the Xia Clan, the name 'Dongbo Xueying' has become a legend, and there are even some biographical novels about 'Dongbo Xueying' circulating! Even for the extraordinary beings of the Xia Clan...they haven't seen Dongbo Snow Eagle for a hundred years, and their memories are beginning to fade away.
Dongbo Xueying took his wife to travel all over the world of the Xia Clan. Only a very few friends knew his whereabouts, and ordinary Chaofan didn't know where he was at all.
The world of the Xia Clan is located in a beautiful ancient city 'Baijiang City' in the southeast of the mainland.
There is a restaurant in Baijiang City that has been open for more than ten years, named Dongyu Restaurant. The owner of the restaurant is a young couple. The man seems to be sick and his face is pale, but he treats guests very well. And his wife is quite beautiful, but she rarely appears in the restaurant.
"The spring in Baijiang City is really beautiful, and it's really a different scene from Yishui City." In a corner on the second floor of the restaurant, a man in white was sitting there holding a paintbrush, looking at the scenery outside intoxicated through the window. , there is a street outside, and beside the street is a river, there are weeping willows on both sides of the river, thousands of weeping willows are flying, there are plum blossoms blooming, and some other unknown flowers are blooming.
The sunshine in the south is more brilliant and colorful, shining on those green trees and red flowers, the colors are so colorful.
Dongbo Xueying has lived in Baijiang City for fifteen years, but he still likes this city very much.
these years……
He and Yu Jingqiu have already traveled to every city in the entire Xia Clan world, whether it is a county town or a small town, and have lived in some favorite places for a long time. They have lived in the desert oasis, on the prairie, on the top of the mountains for a long time, and on the island, and there are countless delicacies that are their favorite!
For example, when they opened this restaurant in Baijiang City, the two of them recruited two chefs they liked very much, and gave them extremely high conditions. Apart from husband and wife, there is only a small amount of foreign affairs. Most of them are their apprentices cooking. Even so, Dongyu Restaurant has gained a lot of fame in Baijiang City for more than ten years.
"Well, the most beautiful thing in Baijiang City is spring. If you miss it, you will lose it." Dongbo Xueying sat there muttering, pressing the paper with one hand, and holding a brush with the other hand, drawing on the paper, the brush is like a knife , with precise and small strokes, the bark and ravines of that weeping willow by the roadside are clearly drawn.
"Boss, the painting is really good. Sell this painting to me for ten gold coins." A silver-haired old man walked beside him. The old man looked at the painting with fascination in his eyes.
"One hundred gold coins, if it's lower than one, don't sell it." Dong Bo Xueying said casually, "I'm talking about Lao Qiu, so don't bother me all the time. Don't you know my rules for selling paintings? These small paintings are all 100. Gold coins, the lower one will not be sold."
"You haven't finished painting yet." The silver-haired old man muttered, "We have been friends for more than ten years, and your painting is too expensive. A hundred gold coins can buy a star-breaking crossbow, and you can hire a group of You are a knight, look, how many paintings have you sold in so many years? It has been more than ten years, I remember that there are only a handful of paintings sold, but you have thousands of paintings! And even some famous masters The paintings are usually only one hundred gold coins to one thousand gold coins."
"I'm not well-known, but Lao Qiu... In a word, whether you like it or not!" Dongbo Xueying glanced at the old man with a grin.
He can see it.
This old man really likes his paintings, Dong Bo Xueying asked himself, in terms of painting skills and artistic conception, he is definitely no less than those 'everyone' among mortals! Of course, my paintings have not been packaged and boasted, and I have no reputation at all.
But it's just for fun.
Moreover, every painting contained Dong Bo Xueying's perception of spearmanship, and if he got this painting to reach the level of a master of spearmanship, he might be able to understand a thing or two. I have sold five paintings in these years, three of which were bought by Chen Gongzhu, He Shanzhu and Yuan Qing, and the other two were bought by a marksman and a rich man Yes, that rich man is still his good friend.
As a restaurant owner myself, I have met many friends, and this 'Old Enemy' is one of them! It's just too stingy! Of course, it may also be that the asking price for his paintings is too high.
"Hmph!" Dongbo Xueying suddenly groaned, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, his fingers trembled, and an extra stroke was added to a painting, ruining the painting.
"Oh." Dong Bo Xue Ying got up, picked it up and tore it up.
"Don't." The silver-haired old man said repeatedly, "You can give this to me."
But Dong Bo Snow Eagle tore it apart in two or three strokes: "Old Qiu, I didn't draw it well, so it's impossible to keep it."
It's like practicing guns to pursue the ultimate.
Painting is the same as marksmanship, if you fail to draw well, you would rather destroy it than keep it.
"It's really distressing." The silver-haired old man "Old Chou" shook his head.
Dongbo Snow Eagle smiled.
When I and Jingqiu move out of Baijiang City, I can give Lao Qiu a painting as a gift, but for now, everything is in accordance with the rules. Without paying a hundred gold coins, it is impossible to take away a painting.
Dong Bo Xueying got up and walked towards the stairs, he frowned slightly, and said to himself: "The effect of bitterness is getting weaker and weaker!"
After taking it for over a hundred years, the 'Ghost Six Resentment Voodoo' in the body gradually adapted, and the effect of the bitter one hundred times became worse and worse! Even if you just took it now, the suppressing effect is very weak, and the pain is terrible. It won't take long for the effect of the medicine to disappear completely, and you have to take the medicine every hour. It can be said that he was tortured by terrible pain all day long.
Dong Bo Snow Eagle always had the urge to drink the antidote, knowing that the effect was weak, but it was better after all. But he still held back!
"I finally understand why many poisoned people mentioned in the records can't live for a hundred years. It's easy to carry it once, but it's really difficult to carry it day and night..." Dongbo Snow Eagle secretly said, "But It can be regarded as tempering my spiritual will, I am afraid that in the entire mortal world, I can be at the forefront spiritually, right?"
From the beginning when the pain was so painful that I couldn't control my body and wanted to roll, until now, the tiny muscles of my body occasionally twitched and out of control under extreme pain.
This is all willpower.
"Master." The gray-robed man leaning on the railing and drinking leisurely came over immediately and said in a low voice.
"Swordsman, don't worry about me." Dongbo Xueying said and walked downstairs.
The swordsman is the fifth of the "Five Shadows" of the God Realm warriors.
Dongbo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu were out walking, and needed men for some mundane and trivial matters, so they brought the weakest Baiwu ape and swordsman with them!
...
Go down the stairs, walk along the back door of the restaurant, and enter a mansion courtyard.
This is where Dongbo Xueying and Yu Jingqiu lived for more than ten years.
"drink!"
"ha!"
A crisp sound sounded.
With a smile on his face, Dongbo Snow Eagle entered a martial arts training ground. There were a group of people practicing marksmanship in the training ground. The youngest one was probably only six or seven years old, and the marksmanship dance was a bit interesting and fun. And the biggest ones are in their twenties, and they are very graceful when they are displayed.
"Master." "Master."
After Dong Bo Snow Eagle arrived, they all stopped and shouted.
"You don't have to worry about me." Dongbo Xueying smiled, because he taught marksmanship for free, some children from the surrounding neighborhood would come to learn marksmanship! But now, I just teach basic marksmanship. Even if some of them have practiced for several years and are very diligent and hard-working, although I teach the method of fighting qi, it is also a method of fighting qi that looks very ordinary on the surface, and so far I have only taught the method of fighting qi to five disciples.
So not many people come here to learn marksmanship.
I'm afraid many of the neighbors think...they are here to help take care of the children?
"Mist Thunder." Dong Bo Xue Ying said suddenly.
"Wow." Immediately, a white-haired old man came to the training ground almost instantly, and walked over immediately. This white-haired old man...is the transformation of the white mist ape. The fog and thunder can be turned into mist, gathering and dispersing impermanently, and can also change into various shapes. Walking outside, it is better to naturally change into a human form.
"Master." The white-haired old man said respectfully, those teenagers practicing guns were not surprised at all, because they knew that this was the white butler of the mansion! I heard that he is a star-level master!
"Hurry up and get ready, Palace Master Chen is here." Dong Bo Xue Ying said.
"Yes." The white-haired old man retreated immediately.
