Chapter 198 Bitter Tea

He raised his hand to summon the Penny in his storage bag, and a feeling of connectedness came from the Penny - this feeling was something that Tian Lin's Feijian had never brought to him.

"This Penny seems to be a magic weapon?"

With a thought in Tian Lin's mind, the two-foot long pennies facing the upper and lower corners of the room shortened to one foot in an instant.

What looked like an ordinary penny was quickly shortened into a cane.

Tian Lin held the bamboo pole in his hand and thought about it before putting it back into his storage bag.

He could feel that this bamboo pole was more like an auxiliary magic weapon for magical powers. In other words, holding this bamboo pole can cast a curse similar to magical powers.

"There is also the ferry boat. After I hung up the wooden sign and became a ferryman, the ferry boat also connected with me."

Unfortunately, the cabin is not big enough to put the ferry boat out directly.

Besides, this is not the time to study the ferry boat.

Tian Lin walked out of the house, looked at Sister Yu'er who was guarding the door and said, "I'm going to visit the Thirteenth Young Master. I don't know what I should bring?"

Yu'er was stunned, and immediately said: "The Thirteenth Young Master likes to eat Kuxin Tea, let's buy some Kuxin Tea, and then go to Master Long to buy a nourishing pill."

Yangshen Dantian Lin knew that it was a pill used to repair the soul, and each pill was worth five middle-grade spiritual stones. It's not cheap, but compared to Tong Shisan's status, it can't be said to be expensive.

"What is Kuxin Tea and how many spiritual stones does it cost?"

"Kuxin tea is just ordinary tea leaves, not worth a few taels of silver. Because its taste is extremely bitter, no one really drinks it. It is more like medicine than tea."

Hearing Yu'er's personal treasures, Tian Lin felt relieved and said, "Go and get ready. Let's go visit the Thirteenth Young Master."

Tian Lin's purpose of visiting Tong Shisan is very simple. In his opinion, Shen Xiantang will not be able to sail in the near future.

Unless the Shuiyun Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators come over, Pingyang City will fall sooner or later.

But Tian Lin wanted to not affect the use of the teleportation array when Pingyang City fell, and he also wanted to obtain Shuiyun Sect's Tiansheng Water Jue before leaving Pingyang City.

The safest way is to make good friends with the Tong family, a local snake.

But other people in the Tong family are not easy to get close to. Only Tong Shisan is humble and has the air of a gentleman.

Soon, Yu'er left and went upstairs again.

She held a delicate package in her arms, and also carried a newly made famous tattoo.

Tian Lin looked at the sky and didn't waste any time. He took the package and went to Pingyang City with Yu'er Yujian.

In the Tong family's old house, the housekeeper quickly entered the house after receiving Tian Lin's invitation and invitation.

Not long after, the pale-faced Tong Shisan walked out with his head held high, and he cupped his hands with Tian Lin from a distance and said:

"Brother Tian, ​​I've wanted to talk to you for a long time, but the battle situation at Shenxiantang is critical, and I haven't been able to treat you to a drink."

Tian Lin entered the room, cupped hands with Tong Shisan and said, "It's so presumptuous of Tian to come here today, and I'm really ashamed that I have to go out to greet Young Master Thirteen himself while he's ill."

Tong Shisan laughed and said: "How can a mere minor injury make me bedridden? Besides, Brother Tian, ​​when you come to visit, wouldn't it be a lack of etiquette if Tong Shisan doesn't come out to greet you?"

When he spoke, he ordered his sword-holder: "Go and ask the kitchen to prepare the food. Today, Brother Tian and I will not return until we are drunk."

Tian Lin quickly raised his hand to stop him: "I have to go to Shenxiantang to exorcise evil spirits next evening. I'm afraid it's not advisable to stay for a long time."

"Then you have to eat before leaving."

Tong Shisan personally led the way and led Tian Lin to the back house of the Tong family's old house.

When they walked to the back house, a little girl stumbled out.

The little girl, wearing a hairdo that reached the sky, pounced on Tong Shisan who came forward.

Tong Shisan bent down and raised the little girl high when she opened her hands. He laughed and said, "If you don't stay with your sister in the house, why did you run out?"

The little girl said in a sweet voice: "It's stuffy in there and there's nothing fun at all. Brother Thirteen, please take me to catch the sea monster."

Tong Shisan held the little girl in one hand and walked toward the pavilion in the small garden, saying: "There is no sea monster in Shenxiantang now. Even if there is a sea monster, can you catch it with your small body?"

"What can't you do? I heard from my sister that when you were seven years old, you ran to Shenxian Pond to catch monsters. I am eight years old now, and I can also catch sea monsters."

Tong Shisan laughed again, and then a scolding sound sounded in the room: "Miaomiao, don't you know that your Thirteenth brother is injured? Come down quickly."

Tong Shisan's waist was indeed bleeding, and Tian Lin could clearly see it from the sidelines.

After Tian Lin heard a woman speaking in a room inside, he turned around and avoided looking in that direction to avoid suspicion.

At this time, Tong Shisan also put the little girl down, patted the little girl's head and said, "Okay, go back and play with your sister. I still have to talk to my friends here."

The little girl left, and Tian Lin put the package on the table and said: "The nourishing pill is not expensive, but the painstaking tea in it is my heart. I hope the Thirteenth Young Master can get well soon."

Tong Shisan invited Tian Lin to take a seat and said, "It seems that fellow Taoist Tian was misled by the rumors outside. In fact, I don't like drinking bitter tea."

As soon as he said this, Tian Lin said "oh" in surprise.

Yu'er, who came in with Tian Lin all the way, quickly confessed: "It's all my fault that I'm good at making decisions. It was my servant who came up with the idea and asked Mr. Tian to buy the painstaking tea."

Tong Shisan waved his hand and said: "I only drink Kuxin tea all year round, so it is normal for people to misunderstand me. Anyway, thank you Brother Tian for your thoughtfulness."

After he finished speaking, he took out the box containing the bitter tea from the package and waved his servants to make tea.

At this time, the people below also started serving food. Taking advantage of this time, Tong Shisan explained to Tian Lin:

"Bitter tea is a kind of medicine that can make people feel less painful after being injured."

Tong Shisan said: "When I was a child, my mother had high expectations for me, so when I was very young, she asked me to practice many exercises that others of the same age could not practice.

Because of this, I get bruises all over my body every day, and I rely on bitter tea to relieve the pain. "

Tian Lin nodded and said, "The little girl just now said that the Thirteenth Young Master went to Shenxian Pond to catch sea monsters when he was seven years old. This shows that behind the talent of cultivating the Thirteenth Young Master, he must have put in hard work that is unimaginable by ordinary people."

Tong Shisan laughed and said: "It's nothing. Everything in the world is bitter first and then sweet. If you can achieve your goal, then you won't feel bitter no matter how hard it is."

The servants over there made tea, and he took a sip himself.

Tian Lin also made himself a cup. The bitter tea was ordinary tea, and the prompt words displayed were not of much help to him.

But after all, it is something after the prompt word 'improved'. The tea that others find bitter and unpleasant is like dessert in Tian Lin's mouth.

Tong Shisan's eyes lit up when he saw Tian Lin drinking bitter tea like sweet water:

"I knew that Brother Tian must have suffered a lot behind his back to be able to achieve such a level of cultivation at such a young age. I'm afraid that Brother Tian's hardships are by no means less than Tong's."

Tian Lin was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.

He thought about it and realized that he had suffered a lot in his two lives.

But he really doesn't feel bitter, because he doesn't seem to have tasted "sweet" much, so there is no comparison.

"The Thirteenth Young Master and I bumped into each other at the tea shop that day. He must have mistakenly thought that I was the Star Picker. I am ashamed to say that I am not a disciple of the Taoist Sect."

Zhaixingzi has shown up, although only Mei Xiangu knows about it.

But since Tian Lin wants to make friends with Tong Shisan, it is important to be honest about everything.

Tong Shisan smiled when he heard the words and said: "I should be ashamed, I was the one who prejudged Brother Tian and regarded Brother Tian as Taoist Fellow Taoist Master——

But it doesn’t matter whether Brother Tian is a star-catcher or not, and it doesn’t matter whether you are a disciple of the Immortal Sect. You have such strength, which shows that you have talent and hard work, which makes Tong respect you even more. "

At this time, the dishes had been served, and Tong Shisan was about to pour wine for Tian Lin, when a maid suddenly walked in from outside and said, "Master, Madam is here."

When she said "Madam," Tian Lin and Tong Shisan stood up.

Tian Lin noticed that Tong Shisan seemed to become nervous after hearing the word 'Madam'.

In order to prevent Tong Shisan from feeling uncomfortable, and besides, it was not convenient for Tian Lin to see the female family members, he simply looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late now. When the next opportunity comes, Tian will come and bother Young Master Thirteen again."

Tong Shisan didn't try to persuade him to stay. After Tong Tianlin handed him over, he asked his maid to escort Tian Lin away through the corner gate.

After leaving the Tong family's old house, Tian Lin asked Yu'er, "The Thirteenth Young Master seems a little afraid of his mother?"

Yu'er said: "The eldest lady is extremely harsh on others, especially the Thirteenth Young Master. Yu'er heard that the Thirteenth Young Master was beaten since he was a child."

Tian Lin sighed and said: "Children of aristocratic families are bound to have their own troubles in order to take on the family business. The Thirteenth Young Master is a worthy young master, but he is not so happy."

If this is the case, Tian Lin will not have empathy with Tong Shisan.

He himself was born as a Huahua Lang and belonged to the class exploited by aristocratic families.

How could he possibly sympathize with Tong Shisan, who had no worries about food and clothing?

Just like the collection of remnant souls in Shen Xiantang this time, even if countless Huahua Lang tried their best, they could only exchange the soul collection beads for some Shuiyun Sect rewards.

As we all know, Tong Shisan is one of the candidates for the position of outer disciple of Shuiyun Sect.

Even if there is still a place for an outer disciple, it will be selected from the Tong family and has nothing to do with those Huahua Langs who are fighting for their lives on Shenxian Pond.

He left Pingyang City one by one, and when he arrived at Shenxiantang, the sky was completely dark.

In the distance, the foundation-building monks on day duty had returned by boat.

Tian Lin suddenly asked the foundation-building monk who was about to garrison in the west: "The Thirteenth Young Master is ill now. Among those who are stationed there, who will be in charge of you in place of the Thirteenth Young Master?"

The foundation-building monk knew that Tian Lin had extraordinary strength, so he said politely: "It's Xing Bufan and Xing Shizong."

Tian Lin nodded when he heard the words, and after the day-duty foundation-building monks over there approached, he took Yu'er and Cui'er up to Shen Xiantang.

It's just that the boat Tian Lin released this time was no longer an ordinary boat, but a ferry boat.
