However, in the end, he was a person who had built his Dao Foundation. His state of mind was still somewhat stable, so he wouldn't get angry just because of this. What if these four colored snacks were not ordinary snacks? There were often such things in the cultivation world. In order to show modesty, or simply to pretend, they would downplay something that was obviously very precious.
It was clearly a treasure, but they had to write it as rags; it was clearly a heavenly treasure, but they had to write it as a cow's yellow dog's treasure, and so on...
"Let me see the things!"
Hearing the young miss's orders, the servants brought the gift box over and found a quiet place. Only Zhou Xiangdao dared to shamelessly follow. She didn't care, after all, it was just a worldly possession. She was just using it to hide the annoyance in her heart. She had a premonition that this loan would not go smoothly.
Zhou Xiangdao was very attentive. Although he came from a big family, a big family had its difficulties. There were many disciples like him, and he had to fight for everything himself. Resources, opportunities, and even a Dao companion! But no one would give it to him for free!
Carefully opening the gift box, four colored items were revealed. At first glance, they were indeed four kinds of snacks. Ice Skin Moon Cake, Hibiscus Lotus Cake, Honey Spring Roll, Wine-Fermented Peach Cake...
Seeing Huang Xiaoya frown, Zhou Xiangdao still comforted her, "It looks like a snack, but the smell is somewhat different. Could it be that there is something strange about it? Sister Ya, why don't you try it... How about this, I'll try it first and see what kind of precious medicine it is... "
After obtaining the approval of the beauty, Zhou Xiangdao picked up a piece and did not destroy the whole thing. It was just that the appearance of this box of snacks was not good, and there were some fragments. He picked up one of the fragments and put it in his mouth, carefully savoring the aftertaste. His expression was very strange...
Huang Xiaoya was impatient, "What is this? Is it a great medicine? Why does it look exactly like a snack? "
Her temper was anxious. Seeing that Zhou Xiangdao wanted to say something but hesitated, she simply picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. As soon as it entered her mouth, she immediately spat it out.
"Zhou Xiangdao! This is clearly an expired snack! You still don't want to say it, and have to pretend to know the business. It's disgusting! "
She shouted to the servant, "Where is he? Take me to see him! Since he dared to make fun of me on such a joyous occasion, I'll teach him a lesson today! "
Zhou Xiangdao followed behind her and tried to explain, but this woman did not listen to a single word he said. How could he have imagined that someone would dare to make such a joke on such a day? Usually, people would immediately turn hostile, let alone give it to a cultivator. Even a joke couldn't be made like this, could it?
The two of them left the inner residence and arrived at the garden outside the courtyard. There was a man standing under a peach tree in the distance with a sword on his back. He was plucking peaches. It was the * * * * * festival. This peach tree was also a special species. It was the favorite of their grandfather. Ordinary people would not dare to pluck it! Even on such a big day like this, her grandfather only allowed her to pick twenty. Who was this person? Not only did he send expired pastries, he even took advantage of her by picking peaches and openly putting them into his storage ring!
There was no one guarding the peach tree because all cultivators knew the rules! But now, he met someone who didn't know the rules!
"Stop! Which thief dares to be so impudent in my Huang Estate? Does my Huang Estate owe you anything? "
Zhou Xiangdao was full of anger. But after seeing the back of this person with a sword on his back and the aura of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he knew that he was also a member of this circle. His anger dissipated by more than half, but his words were still very strict.
"The host doesn't allow it, so the guest dares to be impudent? Which family are you from? Why are you so unrestrained? "
The person plucking peaches put the last few peaches into his storage ring and turned his head with a smile.
"Doesn't your Huang Family owe me? You owe me five days and five nights of hard work! What, Huang Xiao Ya, you forgot so quickly? You don't want to admit it? "
Seeing this person's face, Huang Xiao Ya's aura immediately weakened by thirty percent! After all, she had schemed to make this person take the blame for the dragon boat race. Originally, she wanted to compensate him after the race, but she didn't expect that this dead person would run off to who knows where after the race …
"Stop! That peach is grandfather's favorite. You can't pick it! If you want compensation, I'll give it to you! "
Lou Xiaoyi stopped his hand with a smile. "Hehe, it's good that you remember. It wasn't in vain that I helped you back then! Xiao Ya, you've reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Congratulations! "
Huang Xiao Ya said hatefully, "You're congratulating me with expired snacks like this?"
Lou Xiaoyi didn't care, "Expired? No, right? It was still fresh when I put it in my storage ring!
We cultivators don't have to be so formal. When the gift is here, the thought is here. Everything else is not important!
What, you're not going to bring me in to have some fun? "
Huang Xiao Ya had no choice. They were all on the same side, so she couldn't do anything to him. Only her grandfather's peaches, she didn't know how to explain it later.
The two of them led the way, and Zhou Xiangdao quietly asked, "Sister Ya, who is this person? Is he familiar with you? Is he also a descendant of the Sword Vein? But with my wide circle of friends, I don't think I've seen such a person in the famous Sword Vein Clan? What's his name? "
Only then did Huang Xiao Ya remember that after knowing him for so many years, she still didn't know his surname.
"Hey! What's your name? You're hiding your head and tail! "
Lou Xiaoyi said casually, "My surname is Fei, my given name is Chai. Why, didn't your aunt tell you?"
The three of them walked to the back courtyard, and Zhou Xiangdao became more and more suspicious. He was a person who liked to make friends, and because of his background, people would try to curry favor with him. Therefore, he had a wide circle of connections in the Sword Vein Clans in the exile area, but he had never heard of a Fei Clan.
Did he sneak in? What was his goal? He decided to test him more. He had to dig out his background!
Of course, he didn't think that this guy was here to cause trouble. If he dared to cause trouble in the Sword Vein Clan, then he must be tired of living! However, he couldn't rule out the possibility that a disciple from an outside force wanted to use this opportunity to enter the Sword Vein Clan!
Lou Xiaoyi easily blended into the Sword Vein Clan because everyone was carrying a sword case! Other than the fatty Jin Dan, he didn't pay much attention to them.
He was here to collect debts. Of course, he wasn't here to collect debts from Huang Xiaoya, but from her aunt, Shui Xian. From his point of view, collecting debts would help him balance his mind and body. It would help him to use a more relaxed mood to welcome the middle stage of Jin Dan.
The reason why he wanted to attend this gathering was that he happened to be here at the right time. It was impolite to go to someone's mansion and use his divine sense to investigate. After all, the owner was still his Senior Brother in name, even though their positions in the Sect were worlds apart.
He had to choose a peaceful and unobtrusive way to enter. The most natural way was to attend this Foundation Establishment celebration.
As for the gift, it was something he casually took out from his storage ring without opening the packaging. He didn't know that he would encounter such a situation, so he couldn't have prepared it in advance. Besides, what right did he have? This little girl made him work hard for five days and five nights, and she didn't even show any appreciation!
Was it overdue? Maybe! The way he put the food was rather crude, and he didn't pay attention to the categories. It was a mixture of raw and cooked food, and it might have been a bit too long … It wouldn't kill anyone!
Wasn't it still hairless?
