Chapter 102 Mana
The restaurants in Manchester City are very stylish. The house is like a cylinder, but the table is a rectangular with edges and corners. Everything is white, stained with the morning light of bathing and looks a little holy.
Long Yi had already sat there and saw Long Xiaoqi coming. She nodded slightly and motioned him to sit beside her.
How's it going? Did you sleep well last night?" Long Yi looked at Long Xiaoqi, who was still a little confused.
"It's okay!" Long Xiaoqi shrugged her shoulders and looked like, "Can't you see it?"
"Dragon! Try the fragrant bamboo rice unique to the Thai Empire, accompanied by bird's nest soup to ensure that you don't have enough. Long Yi smiled and handed over the food on the table, signaling that Long Xiaoqi could taste it.
A section of green bamboo has been cut by the waiter with a knife and neatly placed on the plate. The green bamboo is full of rice grains, white and fat, as if it is still opening its mouth and leaning its head and looking at something. Long Xiaoqi slowly put her nose over, and a fragrance flowed down Long Xiaoqi's nose into her stomach.
"Guru." Long Xiaoqi's stomach shouted in frustration. She looked at Long Yi with some embarrassment and found that Long Yi was staring at herself. In an instant, Long Xiaoqi's face suddenly turned red, lowered her head in panic, and ate the food in the bamboo tube in a muffled voice.
"slow down and have a sip of soup." Long Yi pushed the bird's nest soup in front of Long Xiaoqi. Looking at Long Xiaoqi's devouring, she couldn't help but think of her childhood.
Although Long Yi was born in the Long family, her parents are both ordinary people of the Long family. Compared with other people's children, she is happy, but compared with Long Xiaoqi in front of her, she is not even qualified to compare. Long Yi has been indoctrinated with the idea of dedicating everything to the Long family since she was a child. She sprinkled all her sweat on the martial arts practice every day, because it was the only way to enter the senior management of the Long family.
Long Yi has been so beautiful since she was a child, even before she became an adult. She has received bride gifts from many families, but she was rejected by Long Yi's father one by one. It was not until one day that Long Zhanhua saw Long Yi by chance. He was impressed by the girl's talent. Similarly, he was also attracted by the girl's appearance. Finally, under the recommendation of Long Zhanhua, Long Yi had the opportunity to walk out of the Long family and sit in her current seat. For the Long family, Longyi has an indescribable feeling that she is not dependent or attached, but an ancient blood inheritance. For every order of the patriarch, she will not hesitate to carry out, just like a robot, born as a dragon family and dies as the soul of the dragon family.
"This is an after-dinner dessert. Would you like some more?" Long Yi pushed a wooden bowl next to her to Long Xiaoqi, as if she was afraid that he would not have enough to eat. The wooden bowl was filled with sticky **, and the faint white was mixed with yellow, but it looked delicious.
Long Xiaoqi became a small bowl, tasted it lightly, then looked at Long Yi, nodded heavily, drank the rest of the bowl in one breath, and stretched out her tongue to lick and sped her lips, as if she was enjoying it.
"Are you full?" Long Yi looked at Long Xiaoqi, who was already satisfied, and asked him in a loud voice.
"Ye!" Long Xiaoqi stroked her stomach. It seemed that this meal made him satisfied.
"Then let's go! There are still a lot of things to do today!" With that, Long Yi had stood up, put the satbag next to her on her back, took Long Xiaoqi's little hand and walked out.
In front of the hotel, Wang Laye had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Long Yi coming, he walked up affectionately and helped Long Yi get something. However, Long Yi did not refuse Wang Laye, but her willow-like eyebrows frowned slightly, opened the door, and sat in the car.
The scenery of Manchester City during the day is very different from that at night, with a lot less glory of lights, less luxury and gorgeousness, more quaint atmosphere and rich culture. An endless stream of tourists visited the royal palace of Manchester City and knelt devoutly in the Buddhist temple to pray.
"Manchester has the largest number of Buddhist temples in the world, with a total of more than 400 sizes. Here, you can see monks and nuns at any time. If they find you to make love, then give them this one." With that, Long Yi pulled out a Thai coin from her pocket and handed it to Long Xiaoqi.
Long Xiaoqi nodded, took the Thai currency handed over by Long Yi, and looked at it carefully, as if she saw a new type of toy, and she couldn't put it down.
"Ulaula." Wang Laye in front of him suddenly said a large series of words that Long Xiaoqi couldn't understand. The driver drifted and stopped the car steadily. Before Long Xiaoqi could react, he had been pulled down by Long Yi.
"We're here, that's it."
Long Xiaoqi raised her head and looked at the scenery in front of her. Rows of gray-white bungalows look a little dilapidated and outdated compared with the towering buildings. Just like suddenly returning to 500 years ago from the 22nd century, the huge contrast made Long Xiaoqi a little unacceptable for a while. She was still floating in the sky and suddenly fell into the slum.
"Dragon, follow me closely." With that, Long Yi has taken steps and walked to the living area inside.
Even in a luxurious and beautiful city, it will have a shabby and dirty side. Everything in front of him was similar to what Long Xiaoqi thought. The crowd, the elderly, women, and even the baby children, everyone was busy doing their own things, as if they had not noticed Long Xiaoqi and his party at all.
"Don't look at the dilapidated here, but this is the place with the largest flow of people and the most currency in Manchester City, just because it undertakes a national underground black fist every year." Long Yi tilted her eyes and seemed to mean something in her words.
"Why don't you go to better places?" Long Xiaoqi smelled the smell in the air and even had a nausea impulse.
"The black one is black after all. No matter how it floats, it will not turn white." Long Yi seemed to say something casually, but it was very classic.
Wang Laye stopped in front of a dilapidated and low house, turned around and said a lot to Long Yi.
"This is the place we are looking for. Let's go. I'll take you in and have a look." After saying that, Long Yi took Long Xiaoqi's hand and walked into the crumbling bungalow.
The room is not big, the decoration is simple, and even a little empty, with only a man and a little girl sitting there.
Wang Laye talked enthusiastically with the man, and then pulled Long Xiaoqi in front of several people.
"You will live here in the future. This little girl is Mana and your guide in the future." With that, Long Yi put her palms together and bowed down, as if she was beging Mana.
"Hello, I'm Mana." The little girl also put her palms together and saluted Long Xiaoqi. Although Long Xiaoqi was a little stunned, she also learned from Mana and did it.
"Hello, I'm Long..." Long Xiaoqi almost said his real name. Fortunately, at the last moment, he still resisted.
Mana in front of her is about the same age as herself, even a little younger than herself, but Long Xiaoqi, who is fluent in Chinese, is shocking. Watery eyes and chubby face, although the face is stained with dust, it has a unique meaning of mud.
Wang Laye talked with the man for a few more words, as if he wanted to turn around and leave, and Long Yi also blinked at Long Xiaoqi, as if to say goodbye.
"Sister Longyi, don't you live here?" Long Xiaoqi was a little panicked. Since he was a child, he had never lived alone in a completely strange environment.
"Yes! You live here alone, and you have to get along well with Mana in the future, because only she can help you. Long Yi looked at Wang Laye with some vigilance and found that he was talking to the man. She lowered her head and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "I can't live here, but I'm near you. Don't worry." After saying that, Long Yi patted Long Xiaoqi on the shoulder as if to comfort him to put his heart into his stomach.
"Well...bye, Sister Longyi!"
"Ye! When this is over, I will come back to pick you up."
