There is an additional waiter in Baiyu Pavilion who covers his face tightly.
This guy was taciturn and almost never spoke. There seemed to be something wrong with his neck. His head was always hanging to one side, which made him look a little scary.
No one knew where he came from, but Rosen said that he picked this man up on the roadside and took him in as a boy because he was pitiful.
Rosen gave him a name: Mask.
"Do you want revenge?" Rosen asked.
Masked silence.
"What about your brothers? Don't you plan to go and meet them?"
Masked silence.
"But you don't have the talent of a spiritual being."
Mask finally spoke, but his voice was noisy and harsh, as if it was forced out of some small pipe: "Help me, I will give you my life."
"I was the one who saved your life." Rosen sneered.
He originally didn't want to save Wan Fei, but he was lying at the door of Bai Yu Pavilion and kept howling. Moreover, if Wan Fei died at the door of Bai Yu Pavilion, Bai Yu Pavilion would be firmly blamed for it.
Wan Fei, who had just come to Baiyu Pavilion to cause trouble and make trouble the day before, had his neck broken that night and died at the gate of Baiyu Pavilion.
Who would believe that someone other than Bai Yuge did it?
Mask was silent for a long time: "Then I will give you two lives."
Rosen glanced at him. He was wrapped tightly, as if he was desperately trying to draw a clear line with the world. Maybe he would have died long ago.
"It's up to you, but I don't care for idlers. You should learn to be a man." Rosen said.
Mask said nothing.
It's just that he is a little clumsy and imitates other waiters to work hard. His appearance is a bit weird and can easily scare the guests.
So he was only responsible for carrying goods. At other times, he stood alone behind Rosen, saying nothing and doing nothing.
"That's weird, where's that girl Luyin?" Rosen took a sip of tea and found that the taste was not right. The tea brewing technique was a bit poor.
Usually Lu Yin soaks it for him.
Rosen got up and went to check, and found that Lu Yin was meditating in the room, so focused that he seemed to have forgotten the time, and there was a very light mist lingering around him.
The ghost cat named Xiao Ruan lay in her arms and slept soundly. The delicate black lines on the snow-white fur seemed to be faintly shining, making it look a bit mysterious.
"Hey, if she practices so seriously, then let her practice with peace of mind."
Rosen left quietly.
No interruption.
Because of this incident, Lu Yin felt scared, fearing that the young master would one day encounter a powerful enemy that he could not face.
If the young master dies...
When Lu Yin thought of this, she felt chills all over her body and her head was spinning, as if her life had fallen into darkness.
She hoped she could be of some use.
So she started taking spiritual practice seriously for the first time.
I accidentally forgot the passage of time.
"Master, there is a businessman outside who has delivered several big boxes and wants to see you by name." Xiaosha came over and said softly.
Rosen raised his brows, and there was a trace of thought in his eyes: "Lead the way, go and have a look."
When they arrived at the gate of Baiyu Pavilion, there was a man dressed as a businessman standing outside waiting. The businessman was slightly fat, but quite dignified. He was wearing a tall hat that covered half of his face.
Behind him were several helpers carrying five large iron boxes.
When the businessman saw Rosen coming, he saluted slightly: "I've met the young master of the Luo family."
"What do you want from me?" Rosen asked, looking the businessman up and down.
The businessman said: "Can we go in and discuss it in detail?"
Rosen frowned slightly.
"What's going on? Just tell me." Rosen remained unmoved.
Who knows what this businessman does?
There are many stories about luring wolves into homes.
The businessman smiled bitterly, quietly opened a box behind him, and lifted a corner: "Master Luo, please take a look."
Rosen took a closer look and was shocked.
The entire box was actually filled with moon grass and bone flowers.
A rough estimate is that there are about three to four thousand plants. If all five boxes are like this, then there are nearly 20,000 spiritual herbs.
This is a great gift.
Not only is it valuable, but you should know that all the moon grass and bone flowers on the market have been bought out by Huang Shalou.
Where did this businessman get his goods?
Rosen pressed the box and hesitated for a while: "This guest, please rest in the box inside, and we will discuss it in detail."
The corners of the businessman's mouth raised slightly and he nodded.
Passed through the front hall and entered the VIP box of Baiyu Pavilion.
Hot tea had been brewed and pastries prepared in the private room. Rosen didn't have the awareness to be the host, so he didn't say hello and just sat down by himself.
The mask stood aside quietly, like a shadow without any sense of existence.
The businessman probably didn't expect Rosen's attitude and seemed a little at a loss.
"Since we are here to talk about things, let's show our true colors first." Rosen said quietly.
The businessman hesitated for a moment, then took off his tall hat, revealed his true face, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Luo, you are fine."
Rosen was slightly shocked.
He has seen this man before.
It turned out to be the chief shopkeeper of Baibao Pavilion—Chen Jing.
When he was buying and selling yellow sand scorpions, Rosen met this person once, but they never met him again.
"Shopkeeper Chen." Rosen said in surprise: "Why is it you? The boss of Baibao Pavilion actually came here in person. It really makes Baiyu Pavilion shine."
"Shopkeeper Luo, you are too self-effacing. Your Bai Yu Ge is different now." Chen Jing said with emotion.
The original Baiyu Pavilion was just an ordinary small shop.
Nowadays, they have come up with so many tricks, which makes Huangshalou feel a sense of crisis. It is simply unbelievable.
After being polite for a while, Rosen said: "Why did Shopkeeper Chen come to my Baiyu Pavilion? He also specially sent five boxes of spiritual herbs. He couldn't just be a guest, right?"
Get straight to the point.
"Shopkeeper Luo, these moon grass and bone flower should be two very important ingredients in the formula of the Spirit Gathering Pill." Chen Jing asked.
Rosen was slightly silent.
Naturally, he would not tell the other party that these two spiritual herbs were the only two materials used to synthesize the Spirit Gathering Pill.
Rosen asked: "How do you know."
"Haha, Huangshalou inexplicably bought out the bone flowers and moongrass in the entire Huangshalin area. Within half a month, Bai Yuge's Spirit Gathering Pill was no longer for sale. Of course I am not a fool. This can be done easily.
Deduced." Chen Jing said with a smile.
Rosen looked at Chen Jing and became more and more confused.
Huangsha Tower and Baibao Pavilion both belong to the Huangsha Tower and share the same energy. Since the other party knows the formula of the Spirit Gathering Pill, why would they suddenly send these two spiritual herbs.
Rosen asked: "What do you want to do?"
"There are a total of twenty-three cities in the Huangsha Forest area. They did not interfere with each other, but later the city lords of several cities joined forces to establish the Huangsha Alliance."
"Later, the Huangsha League became stronger and stronger, and its influence covered the entire Huangsha Forest area. Many people joined the Huangsha League without truly supporting it."
"So although the Huangsha League is powerful, it is not monolithic within it. Several forces compete with each other, and we, the Baibao Pavilion, are actually the product of competition."
"Huangsha Tower was built by the strongest force of a certain party."
"The other force established the Baibao Pavilion and forcibly took away part of the business from Huangsha Tower."
"Unfortunately, this is not enough. Huangsha Tower has already occupied too many resources of Huangsha League, and Baibao Pavilion alone is not enough to fight against it."
Rosen frowned: "But what does this have to do with me."
The box fell silent.
There seemed to be only the sound of calm breathing.
"Let's cooperate." Chen Jing said slowly: "Baiyu Pavilion and Baibao Pavilion, if we cooperate, we may not be able to fight against Huangsha Tower."
