Chapter 53 Oops, poisoned
Back at the hotel, Li Xiaomu settled the room fee, and the master would not repay the 2 gold coins he borrowed.
Wu Ming didn't say anything, as if it was natural for the apprentice to settle the bill.
Including three hotel fees, a total of 2 gold coins, 7 silver coins, and 20 sword coins were spent.
Wu Ming said goodbye to Li Xiaomu, Lao Jiang and others.
Wu Yilian bid farewell to her father at a fork in the road, reluctant to leave.
Wu Ming warned: "Xiaomu has grown up, is smart, practical, and a good young man. You..."
"Dad, what did you say?" Wu Yilian deliberately interrupted her father and said coquettishly, "We are not yet sixteen years old."
.....
Li Xiaomu talked about his plan to "go to the polar ice fields to find those who can get rid of spiritual insects." Both Lao Jiang and Wu Yilian agreed and were willing to accompany him.
Li Xiaomu and the others meandered northwest along the rammed earth road.
After walking for a long time, the road became wide enough for four horses to drive abreast. It should be the official road.
If you ride a horse, it will definitely be much faster, but it will also be more expensive.
Lao Jiang said it was good to take a walk around. Li Xiaomu nodded in agreement.
Li Xiaomu remembered what a master once said in his previous life: Being thrifty and thrifty is a great practice.
Later I realized a profound truth: thrifty people generally have good luck.
It's early summer and the weather is a bit hot.
Lao Jiang and the three young men from Taoyuan acted as if nothing had happened and walked vigorously.
At the three-way intersection, there are several large banyan trees on the roadside, partially blocking the road.
A pavilion is half-hidden in the woods, with a yellow flag embroidered with the word "tea" in sky blue, which is particularly eye-catching.
Really unbearably thirsty.
"Oh, it's time to take a rest." Wu Yilian gasped and rubbed her knees. Although she was a second-level super powerhouse, she had walked for a long time and consumed a lot of energy.
Others didn't say anything because they saw eight or nine horses under the tree, as well as several loaded carts.
There were four or five strip-shaped wooden tables under the pavilion, and the wooden benches were full of people.
They were all strong men, wearing gray clothes and black trousers, and carrying swords.
Li Xiaomu thought to himself, these are all cold weapons. Is it impossible for the world to develop thermal weapons after the disaster? Or are there thermal weapons, but their use is prohibited?
Isn’t it possible that superpowers are completely better than thermal weapons?
There are currently no traces to follow, so Li Xiaomu cannot ask Wu Yilian.
Just seeing those cold weapons, I suddenly felt like I had traveled to ancient times. However, the clothes of these people were clearly modern people.
There was an empty table at the edge of the pavilion, and the sunlight shone brightly on the table.
Li Xiaomu saw that no one was sitting, so he called everyone over, pulled up two stools, and seven people sat down.
When the men saw Wu Yilian and Xiaozi Jiang, they stopped making noise and stared at the two men with leering eyes.
The strong men completely ignored the disgusted and disgusted expressions of the two women.
Li Xiaomu glared at them several times, but it didn't help.
"What are you looking at?" One of them asked Li Xiaomu fiercely.
It's not a big deal if you take action, but you have to guard against them... Li Xiaomu thought about it and suppressed his anger.
If they knew that Li Xiaomu dared to kill people from the Demon Suppression Division, how could they dare to be so arrogant?
Under the pavilion, two men, one fat and one thin, were busy adding coal cakes to the stove.
They both seemed clumsy and unfamiliar.
Judging from his age, he doesn't look like he was just hired to work... Li Xiaomu was suspicious at the moment.
"Boss, here are seven cups of tea." Li Xiaomu waved to the tea boss.
The tea boss under the pavilion pillar had already seen Li Xiaomu and the others, holding the stacked teacups in his left hand.
The long-mouthed iron kettle on the stove was spraying steam, and he brought the kettle over with his right hand.
The tea boss is a middle-aged man in his forties, who looks kind and kind-hearted from a distance.
When Li Xiaomu came closer to talk, he found that the tea boss had a short upper lip, protruding teeth, and his lips could not cover his teeth, and his speech was hoarse.
The owner of "Touch" tea ordered in front of the seven people, and the seven teacups were placed one after another, with tea leaves and white jasmine flowers already placed at the bottom of the cups.
"Tooth" lifted the kettle, lifted it up, tilted the spout, and the steaming water poured into the cup, while the tea leaves tumbled.
"Louya" lifted the long spout of the kettle, and the spout stopped the trickle. The boiling water just filled the rim of the cup, without a drop of water splashing or overflowing.
After pouring a few more times and closing the mouth, the tea leaves in the cups of seven people began to float and began to gradually turn light yellow-green.
"Awesome!" Lao Jiang looked at "Protruding Ya"'s craftsmanship and nodded in admiration.
Li Xiaomu didn’t know whether Lao Jiang praised Boss “Lou Ya” for his good craftsmanship or his super kung fu skills. Anyway, “Lou Ya”’s skill in pouring water was amazing.
His skill in pouring tea is even better than that of the tea doctor in the Tianfu teahouse in his previous life.
"70 sword coins." Tea owner "Tuya" stood next to Li Xiaomu, "I see you are very tired, why don't you take a long journey?"
70 sword coins, a bit expensive... Li Xiaomu took out the money and paid "Tu Ya", "Is this far from the next town?"
A ripple in the ocean of knowledge.
【Ding!】
[Wealth value]: 44 rhodium coins, 57 gold coins, 8 silver coins
70 gold coins were reduced and the hotel fee was settled... Li Xiaomu was a little disappointed.
【Ding!】
[Wealth value]: 44 rhodium coins, 57 gold coins, 8 silver coins, 12 sword coins
Li Xiaomu: "What happened? Another 12 sword coins were added?"
Crisp sweet voice: "Reward you for paying for six others."
Nearly 16% return...Li Xiaomu's mood immediately improved, "Good intentions are rewarded", it came so quickly, the system is really efficient.
"There are still more than twenty miles." A cold light flashed in the boss's eyes, he looked at Li Xiaomu and said, "Have a good rest before leaving."
Wu Yilian picked up the teacup, sniffed it, blew away the floating tea leaves and jasmine flowers, took a sip, and praised:
"This tea smells so good."
Xiaozi Jiang took a few sips, said "hmm" and nodded.
Lao Jiang slowly picked up the tea cup, scraped off the rim with the lid, blew into the water, took a sip of tea, paused in his mouth, tasted it, and then drank it.
"Stuttering produces fluid." Lao Jiang nodded and said, "The tea leaves are this year's morning tea. They are tender and tender. The heat of the water is well controlled, and the water quality is not bad."
Li Xiaomu heard that it was not bad, but not as good as the water from Peach Blossom Spring.
The other three young men from Taoyuan also took a sip and agreed with Lao Jiang's view.
Li Xiaomu picked up the tea cup and was about to taste it.
At this time, a strong man on the table next to him turned around and sat down next to Wu Yilian. He knocked over Wu Yilian's tea cup with his elbow and said to Wu Yilian regardless of it:
"Sister, you are so beautiful."
"What are you doing?" Wu Yilian said angrily. Seeing that he had bad intentions, she immediately stood up and sat next to Li Xiaomu.
When Li Xiaomu took a look, he saw a strong man with short hair, protruding and high cheekbones, suddenly thin cheeks, short and sharp chin, and sinister eyes.
"Why, you look down on me?" Gao Zhiguang said harshly to Wu Yilian, "Beauty, am I so scary?"
"Uncle, you are strangers to us." Wu Yilian said, "We didn't provoke you, did we?"
"You didn't offend me, why don't we get to know each other?" Gao Zhibo said with a smile on his face.
"Heroes, we don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble when others provoke us!" Li Xiaomu said to Gao Zygomatic.
"Are people with bad looks necessarily evil people?" Gao Zhiguang asked, turning his head to stare at the "protruding tooth" boss, and then his eyes gradually became distracted.
"Bah bang bang bang", the people on several tables nearby fell to the ground along with their stools; a few of them fainted on the table.
"What's going on?..." Wu Yilian's voice was soft, and she didn't know if she was talking about the people at the next table or herself. As soon as she finished speaking, she fainted on the table.
The kid next to him, Jiang, fainted.
