The waiter led Chen Su through a large courtyard. Between the two walls was what the waiter called a big shop. At this time, there were dozens of people living there. It was quite noisy and lively, and there was still noise at the door of the room on the right.
There was a large bonfire with an iron pot hanging on the fire, and something seemed to be cooking. Several men were surrounding the iron pot and roaring as if there was no one around. It was a lively scene. Chen Su didn't look much at it, and just followed the man to the backyard.
, although people occasionally cast their gaze over when passing by, he just lowered his head slightly to avoid it. At this time, there were enough troubles, so he would avoid them if he could.
Wordlessly, I followed the waiter to the backyard. It was a bit quieter here than before. Going deep into the backyard, the waiter came to a small courtyard, pushed open an iron door with a creak, and stood at the door. "Sir, this is the most expensive store in our store."
A single room is not only a single room but also a private courtyard, but it only costs ten silver coins a day, and food and drink are all extra."
Chen Su frowned slightly, "Didn't you just say eight silver coins? Why did it become ten here?"
The waiter snorted, "Not everyone can stay in the eight silver coin room, it has to be a regular customer of our hotel, so if you are looking for a single room, this is the only place."
Chen Su glanced around the small courtyard. Although it was not spacious, it was more than enough for one person, and it was secluded enough, which coincided with his request. "In that case, then live here."
"Okay!" the waiter agreed simply and neatly, "Since you like this place, you might as well deposit your accommodation fee first and settle the payment together when you leave."
Chen Su calculated that if he stayed for three days, the accommodation fee would cost thirty silver coins. "I don't have any money..."
"What?" Before Chen Su finished speaking, the waiter frowned after only half of the sentence and said, "Sir, you want to stay in a hotel without money, and a big hotel is not available. Are you trying to amuse me?"
Chen Su smiled and said coldly: "What are you in a hurry for? I only said that I didn't have any money, and I didn't say that I didn't have anything else." As he said that, he twisted out a Yuan Ning Dan with his fingers and handed it to the waiter.
The clerk stared at the pills, his face changed slightly, "Sir, if you don't have money, don't make fun of me as soon as possible. I'm just a little clerk. There's no point in making fun of me, right?" The clerk said with a bang.
Pulling the door of the small courtyard closed, Chen Su was stunned and said solemnly: "What do you mean by this?"
Seeing Chen Su's displeasure, the waiter felt even more annoyed, "What do you mean? Don't you understand that you have to pay to stay in a hotel? If everyone just wants to live in a private courtyard with just a stone, our store can still be open.
Are you going down?"
After hearing this, Chen Su smiled and understood. It turned out that the man didn't recognize this Ning Yuan Dan and thought he was bluffing him with stones. "Man, I don't blame you if you don't recognize it. You can find someone who recognizes this thing."
, I want to use this thing to stay in a hotel, so you can ask him if that’s okay?”
The waiter looked at the Ning Yuan Dan in Chen Su's hand carefully and said, "I don't recognize it? Okay, then come with me and see if the shopkeeper will let you stay in the hotel?"
Chen Su put away the Ning Yuan Pill and said, "I'll wait for you here. You go and call the shopkeeper. If he doesn't recognize this thing, I'll get up and leave without saying anything."
"That's not okay!" The waiter tilted his head, "This is the backyard of our store, but there are several distinguished guests living there. If some people with bad intentions disturb the peace and leave something valuable, I won't bear the consequences.
"Come on, before you decide to take out the money to check into this hospital, you'd better come to the front and talk to me." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to pull Chen Su's arm.
Chen Su waved his hand and pushed away the waiter's palm, knowing that there would be no result in arguing with him. However, all the unsatisfactory things today made him very resentful, so he said sternly: "Just go ahead and let you go. Why are you making any noise?"
"Hey! Are you still excited?" The guy once again reached out to reach for Chen Su's shoulders, but this time Chen Su couldn't hold it back. He lifted his vitality lightly and a wave of power spread out. The guy was just a person with no cultivation at all.
No one has ever experienced such power. When he was forced to take six or seven steps back and almost fell to the ground, when he looked at Chen Su again, he finally felt real fear. Different from before, he was trembling.
He stood up, pointed at Chen Su and said: "Okay, just wait here and see what the shopkeeper says when he comes?" After that, he ran to the front yard in a hurry, turning back to Chen Su from time to time.
Chen Su snorted, pushed open the iron gate of the small courtyard, and entered the courtyard. It was not spacious, with a radius of only about two feet, but the only advantage was that it was quiet, and a small room directly opposite the courtyard gate was already there.
After locking the door, Chen Su sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard and waited for the waiter to come back. After a while, he heard a lot of noise outside the door, which seemed to be the waiter's complaints coming from far away.
"Ouch! He pushed the door open by himself, how shameless!" The man cursed and walked into the courtyard door, followed by two helpers holding sticks, and a middle-aged man with a dark appearance walked at the end.
"Come out!" When the waiter saw that Chen Su was already sitting in the courtyard, he shouted angrily: "The shopkeeper is here, let's see what else you have to say!"
The dark and thin middle-aged man pulled the waiter aside, stared at Chen Su, frowned and said: "Young man, I don't think you are a local. You really can live in the big shop in front for a few days without the money."
, it’s just this courtyard…”
Chen Su stood up with a smile, "I only said I had no money, but I didn't say I didn't have anything else." As he said that, he took out the Yuan Ning Dan again, "I just told this guy that he didn't recognize it.
I don’t blame him, if you don’t even recognize the shopkeeper, I won’t stay in your shop even if you invite me.”
"Oh?" The shopkeeper took a step forward. Although the sky was a little dark at this time, he could still see clearly that what Chen Su was holding was an elixir, not a stone as the waiter said. He took a closer look and was confused.
He said: "This thing...could it be the Ning Yuan Dan?"
Chen Su smiled and said, "It turns out that the shopkeeper has some knowledge. I'm going to stay here for three days and I can use this thing as my accommodation fee. Is that okay?"
The shopkeeper frowned slightly, staring at Chen Su but becoming alert, "Young man, why did you choose this courtyard alone? This is the backyard of our store, and there are several regular customers living next to it. How about..."
Chen Su waved his hand, "It was your guy who brought me here and explained the accommodation fee. Does the shopkeeper want to regret it?"
The dark and thin middle-aged man smiled and said, "Sir, the thing you took out is the Ning Yuan Dan. It is easy to exchange for some money, but most of the people who can take out this thing are cultivators." He said.
At this point, he looked around and said, "To put it bluntly, if you try to influence the ideas of the customers around you, the shop can't afford it."
"What do you mean by the shopkeeper?" Chen Su was angry, wondering why he didn't look like a good person? "I sincerely stay in the hotel, why do I have ideas about the guests next to me?"
"It's not surprising objectively." The shopkeeper held up his hands and apologized: "I am indeed rude, but I still have to ask the guest to stay elsewhere."
Chen Su's face gradually turned gloomy, and he looked at the dark and thin middle-aged man in front of him, "Humph, I still have to stay here today, but I wanted to see what happened, so I took the idea of the guest next to me."
"Hmph! That's not up to you!" After saying this, the shopkeeper waved his hand. The two people behind him held sticks and looked at Chen Su with fierce eyes. They said sternly: "Your Majesty, please!"
"What, do you want to take action?" Chen Su held his head high and took a step forward, looking at the four people in front of him with the same unkind eyes. Then the shopkeeper waved his hand, and the two clerks raised their sticks and smashed down Chen Su's body.
He raised the corner of his mouth and waved his palm to receive the attack. There was a click, and before the two men knew what happened, the long stick in their hands was broken into two pieces.
"Hmph." Chen Su threw the two broken sticks in his hands to the ground and looked at the dark and thin shopkeeper. At this time, he could feel a faint fluctuation of energy from the shopkeeper's body, but his cultivation level was also only
At the late stage of the Form Qi Realm, Chen Su couldn't help but get angry and spread out his Yuan Li a little. Wow, a wave of powerful aura from a master of the Evil Soul Realm spread out. The shopkeeper and the three waiters were forced to take a few steps back.
And the waiter said angrily and ungratefully: "Shopkeeper, he just used this method to scare me, we have to teach him a lesson!"
"Shut up!" The shopkeeper looked shocked at this time and scolded the waiter severely. He turned to look at Chen Su and said respectfully: "I'm just ignorant. I didn't expect that the guest officer has such a level of cultivation..."
Chen Su smiled disdainfully and said: "Why, do some cultivations mean that you are a good person? Shopkeeper, will you no longer doubt that I will be up to no good?"
The shopkeeper's dark face shook in embarrassment, and he smiled unnaturally: "With your ability as a guest officer, you will definitely not take my shop seriously." As he said that, he bowed to Chen Su repeatedly, "
I hope you will forgive me if I offended you before. By the way, we will not disturb your rest. If you need anything, just ask." Having said this, the shopkeeper hurriedly urged the guys to retreat to the door.
Chen Su was confused by the sudden change in the shopkeeper's attitude, but since the other party said so, he couldn't pursue it further. He reached out and handed over the Ning Yuan Dan, "In this case, please accept the accommodation fee."
The shopkeeper hurriedly handed over his hand and refused: "If you are willing to live here, you have already given me a favor. How dare I charge you for accommodation? You just have to rest assured. Whatever time you stay, if you need anything, the shop will bear it.
." After that, he exited the door and pushed the iron door respectfully. Chen Su was left alone standing in the courtyard blankly. However, since the shopkeeper refused to accept the money, Chen Su was too lazy to talk to him.
Just as he was turning around, the shopkeeper pushed the door open again and came in with a smile on his face, "Sir, this is the key to the room. Please do it." After that, he reached out and handed over a brass key, and Chen Su took it.
In his hand, he asked again: "Accommodation fee...?"
The shopkeeper looked solemn and said, "This small amount of money is nothing. Sir, just stay here." After that, he withdrew again, and several waiters had to follow him out of the small courtyard with suspicious faces.
After they were far away, the shopkeeper whispered to a waiter: "Go and tell Boss Zhou exactly what happened just now."
