No wonder these people gathered in Qixia Town and wouldn't leave.
Here you can hear good stories, enjoy wine and meat, and have friends to brag to.
For some idle江湖人士 (jianghu figures) with nothing better to do, there is no better place to kill time than here.
"Miss, what would you like to order?"
Bai Zhantang greeted her immediately when she came in.
Wang Yuyan ordered two or three side dishes and sat down at a nearby table.
Because Tongfu Inn was next to Chen Yan's fortune-telling shop, and Master Chen was so powerful, even though Wang Yuyan was alone and beautiful, no martial arts master dared to have any improper thoughts towards her...
soon.
The meal is served.
Wang Yuyan didn't have much of an appetite.
After taking a few bites of the famous dishes that Chen Yan taught Li Dazui, he also became very hungry and ate two bowls of rice in a row.
even.
They even ate two or three plates of food completely clean.
"Did I eat all of this?"
Wang Yuyan was taken aback and felt shy.
This was the first time she had ever eaten so much.
"I wish I could eat these delicious dishes every day."
For the first time, Wang Yuyan had more expectations for life after staying.
"Waiter, check out."
Wang Yuyan greeted Bai Zhantang, who walked over, and she was about to take out her money.
Soon, they were at an awkward silence.
Because she always went out with Murong Fu, Bao Butong, and others, she never had the habit of carrying money.
Looking at her face, flushed red with guilt, fear, and remorse.
The seasoned Bai Zhantang had already figured everything out and called over the shopkeeper, Tong Xiangyu.
“Miss Wang, our inn is a small business and we cannot allow people to eat for free.”
Tong Xiangyu finished speaking.
Wang Yuyan was so shy she could hardly lift her head, but she had no money on her, so how could she pay the bill?
Tong Xiangyu looked at her for a long time, then suddenly her eyes lit up: "I heard that you have read extensively since childhood, and are also an expert in musical instruments and chess?"
Wang Yuyan, not understanding, nodded.
Tong Xiangyu clapped her hands: "How about this, you stay at our inn and tutor Xiao Bei in his studies and music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Our inn will provide room and board, and we'll give you three qian of silver every month. What do you think?"
"Okay, okay!"
Wang Yuyan was overjoyed.
Looking up at Tong Xiangyu, he was moved to tears.
She was desperate and had nowhere to turn, but luckily Tong Xiangyu took her in, and she regarded Tong Xiangyu as a very kind person...
Bai Zhantang, however, curled his lip. These days, tutors hired to come to the house are calculated by the hour. The shopkeeper's clever trick is that he can hire an all-around talented woman who is proficient in everything for only three taels of silver a month.
what!
wrong!
Xiucai and Dazui and I only earn two coins a month, not even three.
Shopkeeper, you're being way too stingy!
Tong Xiangyu ignored him, hired a high-quality tutor at a low price, and was overjoyed. She then started looking for Xiao Bei all over the house.
But in the end, they couldn't find Beckham.
“Xiao Bei and my son Wuji went out to play early this morning. My husband and I happened to be free, so we went out to call them back.”
Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu discovered Tong Xiangyu looking for Xiao Bei. After explaining the situation, they volunteered to go out and look for her again.
at this time.
They were also somewhat uneasy.
Because of Xie Xun and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, the three of them were coveted by many martial arts practitioners.
Although Zhang Wuji and Mo Xiaobei had Ah Huang protecting them, they couldn't help but worry after being away for so long.
The couple left the inn and began searching for Xiao Bei, Zhang Wuji, and Ah Huang...
After a cup of tea time.
They found the two little guys and Ah Huang by the river ditch beside the Xiliang River.
at this time.
The two men and their dog were catching fish in the ditch, having a great time.
Everyone was covered in dirt, but they couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.
"No wonder you played for so long and didn't go home. You were having so much fun that you forgot about the time."
Yin Susu smiled, feeling a pang of heartache in her heart.
Zhang Wuji grew up on Icefire Island and had no playmates his own age. It was only when he met Mo Xiaobei, a compatible friend, that he had such a great time.
"These are all owed to Wuji by us, so let them play a little longer."
Zhang Cuishan felt a little guilty and said softly.
Yin Susu nodded gently.
But at this moment.
Several figures flew over.
Seeing Zhang Cuishan and his wife laughing uncontrollably, they looked closely and saw Abbess Miejue, the Five Elders of Kongtong, and He Taichong, the leader of the Kunlun Sect!
All of these parties had grudges against Xie Xun.
So they kept looking for an opportunity to capture Zhang Cuishan and his wife and interrogate them about Xie Xun's whereabouts.
However, Zhang Cuishan and his wife remained in Qixia Town and had heard of Chen Yan's reputation, so they dared not act rashly.
Unexpectedly, I was lucky today and ran into Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Cuishan who took the initiative to come out of the town.
Tell me Xie Xun's whereabouts, and I'll spare your family of three's lives!
Abbess Miejue drew the Heaven-Slaying Sword and roared.
The Five Elders of Kongtong, including He Taichong, also took out their weapons and surrounded Zhang Cuishan and his wife, Zhang Wuji, Mo Xiaobei, and Ah Huang.
Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu's expressions changed drastically.
These people are all seniors, and each of them is stronger than them individually, let alone seven against two. How could they possibly be a match for them...
Just as they were getting anxious.
Mo Xiaobei, who was fishing in the ditch, wiped the mud and water off her face and said with dissatisfaction, "Hey, you old folks, please leave, don't disturb our fishing."
"Slacking off?!"
"You still have the nerve to slack off when you see us! This is outrageous! You're completely disregarding us!"
He Taichong has a fiery temper.
He kicked over the fish basket with one foot.
Ah Huang, Xiao Bei, and Zhang Wuji's hard work for the entire morning was thus wasted.
For a moment, everyone was both angry and furious.
"These kids are so rude, they should be taught a lesson!"
Guan Neng, the eldest of the Five Elders of Kongtong, sneered.
The other four old men also stroked their chins and beards, their faces indifferent.
"Are we the rude ones or are you the rude ones?!"
"You barged in, knocked over the fish we worked so hard to catch, and now you're blaming us?!"
Mo Xiaobei is also a fearless person, and she became an instant sensation.
Zhang Wuji was a bit less courageous than her, but he was also furious.
"Hahaha... This humble nun has roamed the martial world for so many years, and this is the first time I've encountered such a headstrong little girl. Hmm, little girl, I think you have a connection with our Emei Sect. Would you like to become my disciple?"
"Get as far away from me as your thoughts can take you!"
Mo Xiaobei angrily rebuked.
She learned this insult from Chen Yan and thought it was very powerful; she finally used it today.
