Chapter 95 That's an Outsider
Huo Shen smiled brightly: "Does it matter who he is?"

Huo Shen drove the car into an alley and stopped at the entrance of a small courtyard. Then someone came out and carried Yang Hao in, who had fainted from fear.

"Where is this?" Jing Li looked confused.

Huo Shen turned around and opened the curtain of another carriage: "Come on, don't you still want to go shopping?"

Jing Li glanced at the small courtyard. It was silent and there seemed to be no one at all.

Huo Shen took Jing Li back to the main street grocery store. As soon as he got out of the car, he met Wan Baoquan who had just come out of the leather goods shop next door to negotiate a business deal.

"Oh, it's Master Huo! I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing recently? Your sister misses you very much!"

Wan Baoquan was very familiar with him, and as soon as they met, he went up and patted Huo Shen on the shoulder.

Huo Shen's face was full of smiles: "Really? It's been a long time since I've seen my sister!"

"Then you must go to our place and have a look. You know we have just built a house. We are planning to buy some things to celebrate the new home and celebrate the Double Ninth Festival."

Everyone invited Huo Shen very enthusiastically, and Huo Shen also smiled and exchanged greetings. For some reason, Jingli felt that his distant smile did not reach her eyes.

Jing Li interrupted everyone's enthusiasm: "Uncle, let's wait for a while before inviting Master Huo to our house as a guest. Right now, everything in the house is in chaos, I'm sorry!"

Uncle Tiesheng and the others felt a little embarrassed for a moment. Yes, they came from a wealthy family, so they just built a stone house, which was a makeshift building. It was indeed a bit unscrupulous to invite him over.

Huo Shen glanced at Jing Li with a half-smile but not a smile: "Uncle, Brother Quanzi, I just want to go back with you today for a visit. Do you mind?"

"No, I don't mind!"

Wan Baoquan immediately hugged Huo Shen and said, "Why do you mind? You are not outsiders. You treat us as your own people. I would say that this kid A Li is a bit too outsider."

Huo Shen looked at Jingli's speechless expression: "You are indeed very open-minded!"

"You haven't eaten yet, right? Come on, I'll treat everyone to dinner!"

"Need not!"

"Need not!"

This time, Jingli was not the only one who refused, but everyone felt quite embarrassed. After all, with so many people, how much would it cost.

Huo Shen was a little disappointed: "It's just a short time since we haven't seen each other. Are you all separated from me?"

Jing Li secretly complained: "Who is separated from you? It seems like I knew you very well before. If it weren't for Haitang, who would have the patience to talk to you, a vampire who gets sick at every turn!"

Jing Li finished complaining to Huo Shen in her heart, and suddenly remembered that this crazy person seemed to have been sick for only these two days, so he couldn't be allowed to go to Beishui Village.

"Master Huo, you are busy, so you should go and do your work first. We will buy the things and leave. We will catch up with you another day when we have time!"

Jing Li had a fake smile on her face. If this person didn't leave, she probably wouldn't be able to maintain her smile.

Huo Shen touched his slender jade fingers: "Someday? Reminiscing about the past?"

Damn it, this guy is reminding himself that he just helped clean up Yang Hao's matter.Jing Li gritted her teeth: "Then let's eat first. Brother Quanzi, see if Auntie Fat is back? When she comes back, we'll eat together upstairs."

Huo Shen smiled broadly and turned around to go upstairs with Jing Li when he heard someone shouting from behind: "Ah Li!"

Xiao Lianyun blushed and pulled her elder brother Xiao Yifeng to run over: "Ah Li, are you okay?"

Jing Li made a gesture of silence: "Long time no see, how are you, Brother Xiao?"

Xiao Yifeng bowed slightly: "I've been away so much, but I'm lucky to be able to see Miss Jing again. I'm so lucky!"

The smile in Huo Shen's eyes was tinged with chills. He called himself Master Huo, and Xiao Yifeng meant Brother Xiao.

Jing Li smiled: "The world is in chaos, and it is indeed a blessing among misfortunes to meet an old friend here. An invitation is worse than a chance encounter, so let's have a meal together!"

Huo Shen's face darkened a few shades in an instant. What do you mean? She just said she wanted to eat, and she had many reasons to stop him. When she saw Xiao Yifeng, she invited him upstairs.

Wan Baoquan, who had found the fat aunt, didn't know what was going on, so he directly pulled Huo Shen up and walked upstairs: "Master Huo, that's Ah Li's friend. We are all our own people, so we won't say those polite words. We are from the countryside. I’m not very good at entertaining these noble gentlemen, so why don’t you ask Master Huo to help with greetings?”

It turns out that this is the truth. Xiao Yifeng is an outsider, so he should be more polite. This is right!

After figuring this out, the smile on Huo Shen's face became even brighter, but Jing Li was a little confused. Why was he so hot and cold?
Several people went to the restaurant, Xiao Lianyun sat down next to Jingli, but Huo Shen took the opportunity to sit on the other side of Jingli.

Xiao Lianyun chattered with Jing Li about what happened after they said goodbye to Qingzhou.

"Fortunately, we left early and didn't encounter a big chaos. But once we returned to Kyoto, there was still no peaceful life. Just a few days after returning, the Jie people came over. Those people were not human at all, and they were even more ferocious than the Liao people. "

"As soon as they entered the city, they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil. His Majesty and his harem hurried to King Wei's fiefdom. We also followed. It's a pity that no one of the people left behind survived."

Several people in Jingjia Village looked sad when they heard this. They thought that they were already pitiful enough. They had to drag their families away from their hometowns, and along the way they had to fight against bandits, soldiers, plagues and other natural and man-made disasters in order to survive. After fate came, everyone was still a whole family and no one was left behind.

Jingli's face was quite heavy: "What about Kyoto now?"

Xiao Lianyun said angrily: "Now the world belongs to the Jie people. Didn't you see that your majesty has already built a palace in Chang'an? The concubines who have not escaped must be replaced again."

Everyone was speechless for a moment. They all lost their nest. Are you still in the mood to build a palace?Do you want to replace the dead wives?

This emperor is too big-hearted!
Jing Li asked again: "Didn't you say that King Changling is very good at fighting? Why didn't you come out to clean up the situation?"

Xiao Lianyun became even more angry: "Don't mention it. That family is all ignorant. The incompetent ones sit there and point. The capable ones are always elusive. Until now, few people have seen the true face of Prince Changling. Rong, who knows whether he is dead or alive?"

Xiao Yifeng, who was sitting next to Xiao Lianyun, said in a deep voice: "Ayun, be careful what you say! His Royal Highness Prince Changling is not someone we can criticize!"

"Why can't you say it? He is a member of the royal family, and he is the only one among that bunch of trash who can take charge of the overall situation. However, he always pretends to be a ghost and acts like the world has nothing to do with him. If this is the case, he might as well just die and save people. I had longing in my heart but in the end it came to nothing.”

Xiao Yifeng's usually calm face showed a little anger: "That's not what we should worry about. National affairs have to be taken care of by the people above. When will it be your turn to talk nonsense like a little girl who knows nothing."

Jing Li quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Yes, what that person wants is not our concern. Let's eat first!"
