Chapter 1114: Searching for the Madam
But the most outrageous things are yet to come.
Jiang Yantian took her hand and kissed it directly on his lips.
Ji Chu's beautiful eyes widened, and her body stiffened slightly.
This!
Qin Yuan's mind was buzzing. Holy crap!
Kiss your hand!!!
Jiang Yantian quickly relaxed, still maintaining his composed demeanor.
"Fairy, please don't misunderstand. This is a custom from my hometown, and it means the same thing as bowing!"
"Ah? Hmm..." Ji Chu slowly lowered her head, not daring to look at Jiang Yantian!
Qin Yuan was a little flustered.
We can't let them continue communicating.
My heart is completely captivated.
He quickly came over and interrupted them.
"Fellow Daoist, my name is Qin Yuan!" As he spoke, he also extended his hand, just as Jiang Yantian had said, following the etiquette of his hometown.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yantian clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"?"
“Fellow Daoist Fu Qing, is it... the etiquette of your hometown..." Qin Yuan asked.
"Oh!" Jiang Yantian shook his head: "No need for that. A true man doesn't concern himself with trifles! Forgetting small formalities to remember the greater good is what we should do!"
Qin Yuan was truly impressed.
Damn it, what a hypocrite!
Women kiss hands, and men clasp their hands in a fist salute.
焯！
There was another man, who was also introduced; his name was Liu Mang.
Jiang Yantian maintained his smile.
It gives people a very approachable feeling.
As the saying goes, a chance encounter is more delightful than a special invitation.
"It is truly an honor for me, Fu, to meet you four fellow Daoists today!"
"If you don't mind, I'll prepare a simple meal and some wine for the four of you. What do you think?"
"How can that be? It should be us who host Brother Fu!" the bearded man laughed heartily.
"There's a rather nice inn on the cliff ahead, Brother Fu, please..."
Jiang Yantian did not refuse: "Alright, then I'll gladly accept your offer. Please..."
As they spoke, the group walked in that direction.
Qin Yuan seems to have become virtually invisible.
Follow at the very end.
Big Beard and Ji Chu were having a lively chat with Jiang Yantian.
Seeing them like this made Qin Yuan feel very uncomfortable.
He is not an ungrateful person.
I just feel that Fu Qing is a strange person.
An instinct made him feel that he was in great danger.
He had great faith in his instincts.
Something's not right, something's very wrong.
But I just can't put it into words.
The group arrived at the Cliff Inn.
It was quite lively inside.
Many people stop and linger here.
They seemed to have a good amount of food and drink.
It's no wonder so many people are willing to stay here.
They requested a private room.
The bearded man was a straightforward and generous man, and his gratitude was the strongest in his heart.
He was the first to pick up the heavy black pottery wine pot and gulp down five large bowls of murky wine.
The smell of alcohol was pungent.
He picked up the largest bowl, the murky liquid inside swirling around.
"Brother Fu, I'm a rough man, I don't know how to say nice things!"
But this first bowl of wine is for you!
"Thank you so much, Brother Fu, for your chivalrous help. You saved my life, as well as the lives of Junior Brother Qin and Junior Sister Ji!"
"I will remember this for the rest of my life!"
Having said that, he tilted his head back, about to drink the bowl of spicy, throat-irritating black liquor in one gulp!
However, Jiang Yantian gently pressed his palm on the rim of the bowl that the bearded man was about to tilt up.
Jiang Yantian still wore that gentle, warm smile.
He shook his head, his voice calm yet carrying an undeniable strength: "I appreciate your kind intentions."
"It's a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
“At the entrance just now, I made it clear that helping others was my own conscience and a matter of righteousness, not for any reward.”
"I'll share this drink with you all."
"Drink this wine, and let's not mention what just happened again. Let's just consider it a chance encounter and share a cup of wine, shall we?"
His words were clear and powerful, carrying a convincing sense of open-mindedness and composure.
Upon hearing this, they were filled with even deeper admiration and a sense of inadequacy, as if they were looking up at a towering mountain!
"well!"
The group drank the beverages.
The bearded man and his companions couldn't help but glance at Qin Yuan.
It's as if it's saying, "Look at them, and then look at your pathetic self..."
Then, we just chatted naturally.
Jiang Yantian avoided the beauty in front of him from beginning to end.
At the beginning of this era, she wore a veil, yet she could not escape Jiang Yantian's penetrating golden eyes.
It's fucking good-looking.
I feel pity!
I want to say!
After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,
The bearded man was in high spirits after drinking.
Finally, he asked, "By the way, Brother Fu, may I ask what brings you to Black Gorge?"
"Is it also for this treasure hunt?"
Black Canyon was originally a large trading hub.
So-called treasure hunts are held frequently, and they contain countless rare treasures.
Many people also carry many valuable treasures and exchange them for other goods.
Of course, there are also those like Qin Yuan who want to snag a bargain.
Jiang Yantian put down his wine cup and sighed, "I did not come here for any treasures or resources."
"I came here, actually..." he paused, "...actually, just to find my wife..."
Everyone was surprised by these words.
But then I thought about it again, and Fu Qing was an outstanding man with a remarkable appearance, an exceptional demeanor, and impeccable character.
Isn't it normal to have a partner?
When Ji Chu heard this, he didn't say anything, but just silently looked at the wine.
As for Qin Yuan, he was secretly laughing out loud.
Holy crap, that's awesome!
He has a wife, and it seems she's head over heels in love with him.
That puts my mind at ease.
Otherwise, I'm really afraid that my junior sister will be deceived by him.
This piqued Qin Yuan's interest as well.
He quickly asked, "I see. Is Brother Fu's wife in Black Gorge? Or...?"
Jiang Yantian shook his head: "To be honest, my wife already..."
If you only say half of what you mean, others will hear it as a misunderstanding.
"Ning'er, your husband loves you!" Jiang Yantian murmured to himself.
Upon hearing this, everyone else fell silent, deeply disappointed.
It's clear that Brother Fu values his wife highly and loves her very much.
“However…” Jiang Yantian suddenly said, “I heard from a good friend that he saw my wife in Black Gorge!”
“I couldn’t believe it at the time. How could it be? But he actually swore an oath with me that he really had seen it.”
That's why I came here!
"I see... Then... then it really was your wife. Perhaps it was all a beautiful misunderstanding, and perhaps your wife didn't..."
The bearded man quickly replied.
Jiang Yantian lowered his head: "I watched his soul lamp go out with my own eyes, but anything is possible. What if? It's always better to have hope than no hope at all..."
"Yes, yes!" the bearded man quickly agreed. "Brother Fu, if I may ask, do you have a portrait of your wife? My fellow disciples and I often gather here."
"If we encounter them, having more eyes means we might actually find them, right?"
The bearded man is indeed quite loyal.
“Yes, I have this!” Jiang Yantian nodded.
After saying that, he immediately said to the system, "System, hurry up and use Photoshop to combine my portrait with the portrait of Ji Chu on the other side. Just make sure the clothes are different!"
"Hurry up!"
"Right away, right away..."
Jiang Yantian pretended to be looking for something.
then.
"Ding, complete..."
Soon, Jiang Yantian took out a huge scroll and stood up.
Under their gaze, the scroll was unfurled.
Upon seeing the painting, the people present suddenly stood up.
His face was filled with disbelief.
They looked at the painting, then at Ji Chu!
Ji Chu is currently wearing a veil, but they are fellow disciples.
They must know what Ji Chu looks like.
After viewing the painting, everyone's gaze immediately turned to Ji Chu...
