Chapter 85 Ruined Temple
After Shen Shixu realized this, he slapped his head and said in annoyance: "I was so busy investigating the case that I forgot about these two people. Forget it, there will be other cases in the future anyway, I will teach them then."
Xiao Jinyi just saw him slapping his head in frustration, and he was also complaining about Jiang Bin and Zhang Ming in his heart, thinking that these two people were tactless. They brought them here to study, but they didn't know how to follow along. Did Shen Shixu still need to teach them step by step? It’s not that little kid like An Chengyu.
(Jiang Bin: The person in front of me is my cousin, I can’t curse him, just hold it in!
Zhang Ming: The person opposite us is a prince, and he is quite capable of fighting. We have to endure it! ）
Fortunately, Jiang Bin and Zhang Ming, who were despised, didn’t know what Xiao Jinyi was thinking, otherwise they would have really cried.
Don't they want to follow? They didn't keep up at all!
When they finished vomiting and felt less nauseous, and wanted to look for someone, Shen Shixu and Xiao Jinyi were nowhere to be seen.
A section of the bridge that they had to cross to get back to the capital was due for regular maintenance. They forgot about this on their way back, and only realized they had to take a detour when they got to the bridge.
As a result, they missed the opportunity to stay at the hotel and thought they might have to sleep in the wild, but by chance, there was an abandoned temple in front of them.
There was a dim candlelight burning inside. There must be someone like them who didn't have time to stay in a hotel and could only live in the dilapidated temple.
Shen Shixu told Jiang Bin and the others: "Don't reveal your identity, and don't cause any more trouble."
After giving them instructions, Shen Shixu walked into the dilapidated temple. As soon as he entered, he smelled a strong smell of medicine, and then saw an old man and a child cuddling together.
There was a casserole in front of the two of them, and the smell of medicine came from there.
When the old man saw so many people suddenly coming in, with a sword in his hand, he nervously hugged his little grandson who was leaning on him into his arms, and leaned towards him, looking very alert.
Seeing this, Shen Shixu quickly said, “Don’t be afraid, old man. We are all good people. It’s just that there are many dangers when we go out, so we carry swords for self-defense.”
Seeing Shen Shixu speaking so softly and actively showing kindness to them, and seeing young men these days, the old man relaxed a little.
As soon as he relaxed, the little grandson in his arms started coughing. The old man didn't care about anything else and hurried to pat his grandson on the back.
Shen Shixu also saw the appearance of the child in his arms clearly at this time. His face was pale, but because of the violent coughing, it made his face look rosy, but he just coughed it out, the child's face was not really rosy, but his facial features were very delicate and he looked very good.
When the old man saw his grandson coughing so violently, he quickly took a handkerchief from the side, wrapped the handle, and took the casserole down.
He poured the medicine into the porcelain bowl beside him, then took the fan beside him and fanned the child vigorously. During this time, the child continued to cough.
The old man was so anxious that sweat was pouring down his forehead. Xiao Jinyi couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he walked over, snatched the medicine from his hand and held it in his hand.
Then he let out waves of cold air from his palms, warmed the medicine, and fed it to the child who was still coughing.
Shen Shixu's eyes widened when he saw the coldness coming out of his palms.
After Xiao Jinyi came back, he couldn't wait to ask, "Jinyi, why are your palms cold?"
Jiang Bin also saw what his cousin showed, and his eyes lit up at the time, and now he also followed suit.
Zhang Ming was also curious, and followed behind Jiang Bin, looking at Xiao Jinyi eagerly, waiting for him to answer their questions.
As soon as Xiao Jinyi came back, he was met with three pairs of bright eyes, staring at him straight, like light bulbs in the dark night.
Jiang Miaokong and Song Zhuoyang were both in the underworld and knew what trick Xiao Jinyi had revealed, but they did not expect that the God of War would know so many martial arts.
"This is called the Ice Palm, a type of martial arts." Xiao Jinyi explained to them. When he mentioned martial arts, he suddenly remembered something and said to Shen Shixu, "Ah Xu, I have a gift for you when we go back."
When Shen Shixu heard that he had a gift for him, he was very curious about what he was going to give him, but since he didn't say anything, he probably wanted to give her a surprise, so he didn't ask.
However, he took this matter to heart. Xiao Jinyi prepared a gift for him, so of course he had to prepare a gift for him as well.
The old man also came over with his grandson who didn't cough to thank him, "Thank you, young man. These are the pies I made. It looks like you haven't had time to eat yet. If you don't mind, these are for you."
When I smelled the steaming pie, my stomach started to growl even though I hadn't felt hungry for the past few days.
They had no trouble along the way, but they suffered a lot in terms of eating.
None of the six people in the group knew how to cook. Jiang Miaokong knew a little, but he could only cook some rice. They couldn't eat this for three meals a day, right?
It would be great if you could find an inn in time, so you don’t have to eat the hard dry food. If you can’t find one, you can only eat dry biscuits.
Seeing this delicious meat pie, Shen Shixu and the others couldn't refuse it.
Shen Shixu took the pie handed over by the old man and said awkwardly, "Then we won't be polite."
The old man was puzzled when he saw this group of young men wolfing down their food. They didn’t look like they were poor based on their clothes, so why did they look as hungry as if they hadn’t eaten for 800 years?
As Shen Shixu was eating, he felt the old man's passionate gaze. After finishing the last bite of the pie in his hand, he opened his mouth and said awkwardly: "Haha, I'm sorry to make you laugh. None of us can cook. It's good if we can find an inn on the road. If we can't find an inn, we will all eat dry food.
We've all been eating so much these days that our faces are green. So, when we suddenly ate such delicious pie, we lost our composure and made a fool of ourselves. ”
When the old man heard what he said, he looked at the group of young men with sympathy, thinking that they might not be full yet because of those pies.
He took out some pies from the bag and roasted them on the fire. Soon the aroma of the pies wafted through the ruined temple.
"If it's not enough, come and get more. There's plenty of pie."
Shen Shixu was too embarrassed to take any more, so the old man stuffed them into their hands one by one. Jiang Bin thought that he couldn't eat other people's food for free.
He glanced at the little boy sitting there obediently, and remembering that he still had some pastries on him, he took out an oil-paper bag from his bag and handed it to him.
"Little brother, this is for you. I tell you, the snacks inside are delicious. You should like it."
As Jiang Bin spoke, he opened the oil paper package, took out a cake from it and fed it into the child's mouth. The child felt better when he ate the sweet thing.
"Thank you, brother!" Jiang Bin looked at the lively child and felt as if he saw An Chengyu. He reached out and rubbed his head, then stuffed the paper bag into his arms.
