The boss responded, and Chen Dasheng turned around and headed upstairs.
——
Guest room.
"Brother Chen, what are you talking to the boss about?" The guest room is relatively simple, but there are two beds. Walking into the guest room, Shen Qingmu is making the bed.
Chen Dasheng said, "I asked about my sister's situation."
"Is there any news?" Shen Qingyi walked in.
Chen Dasheng nodded, "They stayed here, and the boss said that my sister even helped them catch ghosts."
"Catch ghosts?" Shen Qingyi was stunned.
Shen Qingmu also came over, "Is there any spiritual practice here?"
"It's probably just a kid. Spiritual cultivation is quite difficult to deal with. With my sister's strength, she might not have any problem dealing with a few ghost generals. But if she encounters a ghost king, there's probably nothing she can do." Chen Dasheng sat by the bed.
"Oh, I have been practicing for so long and I have never seen what spiritual cultivation looks like!" Shen Qingmu was quite interested. Although he was a great disciple of the Shaoyang Sect, he had never even seen spiritual cultivation. If he told me, no one would believe him.
Chen Dasheng smiled and said, "I heard it's a mass grave outside Zhuangzi. If you're interested, you might as well go and take a look. There might be some fish that slipped through the net. Just don't wet your pants then."
Shen Qingmu's face twitched, Shen Qingyi covered her mouth and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, it's just a spiritual practice, it's not enough to scare a grown man like my brother into pissing his pants, right?"
"That's not certain!" Chen Dasheng grinned, "Didn't your brother almost wet his pants on Mangshan Mountain before?"
"Brother Chen, stop joking!" Shen Qingmu said awkwardly, "We'd better find something to fill our stomachs, and get up early tomorrow and hit the road to find your sister. Since your sister has eliminated spiritual cultivation, how can we still have it?
A fish that slipped through the net?”
While they were talking, the waiter in the store brought up a dinner plate, a plate of beef, several plates of side dishes, three bowls of rice, and two pots of good wine. Chen Dasheng gave the waiter some scattered silver as a reward, and the waiter left.
go out.
"You've been driving all the way, you should be hungry, right?"
Chen Dasheng stroked his chopsticks and asked the two brothers and sisters to start working.
——
After a day's journey, the three of them were a little tired. After eating, they went to bed early. However, in the middle of the night, they were awakened by a loud noise outside.
The horseshoes clattered on the bluestone street, making a crisp sound. The sound was very loud, and one could tell that a horse team was approaching.
"Bang!"
"Boss, you idiot, where did you die?"
The door of the inn was kicked open, and then in the quiet night, a cursing man's voice sounded. After a while, the boss's voice sounded again, submissive. The voice was very low.
After checking with his spiritual sense, he found a group of people who were dusty and had weapons on their hands. They should be people from the martial arts world. It was the middle of the night when he was sleepy, but Shen Qingmu slept soundly. Chen Dasheng actually envied him a little, and he felt sleepy.
, turned over directly, and went back to sleep.
——
"Boom. Boom, boom!"
Just as he fell into a drowsy sleep, a rapid knock on the door woke Chen Dasheng up again.
"Who?"
This feeling of being disturbed from sleep is the most irritating thing. Chen Dasheng hasn't spoken yet. But Shen Qingmu woke up, with a bit of anger in his voice.
Chen Dasheng stood up, lit the oil lamp on the table, and with a thought, opened the door latch, and the boss stumbled in.
"What are you doing in the middle of the night?" Shen Qingmu rubbed his eyes, feeling very unhappy.
The boss covered half of his face and bowed his body and said, "Two guests, I'm really sorry. A group of Jianghu people came outside and wanted to stay in the hotel, but the shop is small and there are no guest rooms, so I have to ask you two.
Move somewhere..."
"What?" When Shen Qingmu heard this, his voice suddenly increased by one decibel.
The boss smiled bitterly and said with some embarrassment, "I'm really sorry. I also know that this is not good, but there is nothing I can do. Those people are vicious and not good people. We ordinary people really can't afford to offend them. I just argued with them, but they were ignored.
They beat me!"
As he said that, the boss revealed half of his covered face. He had a big black eye and half of his face was swollen. It was obvious that he had been beaten.
"Oh, you are so outrageous and lawless?" Seeing the injuries on the boss's face, Shen Qingmu suddenly became filled with righteous indignation. As he said this, he wanted to go downstairs to settle the score with those people.
The boss was startled and hurriedly grabbed Shen Qingmu, "Sir, please don't be impulsive. We can't afford to offend those people. You can find a place to stay in the village. You just need to say that you are Master Chen's friends.
I'm sorry that I gave you free accommodation."
"That's not possible. We were here first and slept well. Why should we give the room to them?" How could Shen Qingmu agree? He broke free from the boss's hand and walked directly out.
The boss's face suddenly changed with fear and he was about to cry. Something big was going to happen!
Chen Dasheng stepped forward and patted the boss on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down, and then followed him out.
This small inn didn't have many rooms. As soon as I came out, I met Shen Qingyi, who was also called out by the waiter. In addition, there were several strangers who were also guests of the inn, but now they were all complaining.
No one would feel comfortable being called out of their warm bed in the middle of the night.
——
In the downstairs hall of the inn, there were a dozen men gathered, dressed in linen and short shirts, holding swords, guns and sticks in their hands, speaking obscene words, and you could tell at a glance that they were reckless men.
"Boss, at this rate, when will we arrive?" In front of a square table, a thin man with gold teeth asked a one-eyed middle-aged man.
The one-eyed man picked up the teapot on the table and took a sip of tea from the teapot spout. "We'll be here in five or six days. We have to hurry up. Let your brothers have a good rest tonight. We will continue our journey tomorrow morning and try to be early."
When you get there, don't let me wait in a hurry."
Da Jinya nodded, "Boss, do you think the news about Third Master is accurate? Is there really a treasure born?"
"Shh!"
As soon as Da Jinya finished speaking, the one-eyed man immediately made a gesture of silence, as if he was afraid of being overheard. He carefully looked around and saw no outsiders, then he lowered his voice and frowned.
, "You are crazy. If anyone listens to it, I will destroy the treasure. Be careful, I will never end it with you!"
"Uh, yes yes yes!"
Seeing the one-eyed man getting angry, Da Jinya was startled and immediately became submissive. He was obviously very afraid of the one-eyed man.
Another man with big ears approached next to him and said, "Boss, since it is a treasure, there must be a lot of people fighting for it. It's just us, can it be our turn?"
"Snapped!"
"Bah, you will destroy your own prestige by increasing other people's ambitions!" The one-eyed man slapped the big-eared man in the face, cursed, and said, "If the treasure is born, it will definitely attract experts from all walks of life to snatch it up, but this time it is different.
, happened to be hit by the third child, as long as we rush to that place before the treasure is born and seize the opportunity, the treasure will naturally be ours."
"Boss is wise!" Big Jinya boasted.
Hearing this, the one-eyed man's mouth curved slightly, and he turned to look in the direction of the stairs, becoming a little unhappy again, "Where's the boss? Where did he go? Is it so troublesome to chase a few people away? I'm in a hurry, please be careful.
I burned this inn down with a fire."
"Oh, that's such a loud breath, it's really burning you up!"
Just as the one-eyed man was cursing, a voice came from the stairs. When he looked up, he saw a young man slowly walking down the stairs on the second floor.
"Boy, what the hell are you talking about?" Big Gold Tooth stood up suddenly, like a loyal dog protecting its owner, and barked at Shen Qingmu.
If it were Chen Dasheng, Da Jinya might not be able to see the sun tomorrow. Da Jinya should feel lucky. Shen Qingmu is well-educated and would not be irritated by his words, but he still frowned and looked at
After scanning this group of people, they found that they were all low-level martial artists in the realm of martial arts. The only one who was stronger was the one-eyed man, but he was only at the early stage of martial arts. Compared with him, there was still some distance.
Slowly walking down the stairs, Shen Qingmu ignored Big Jinya's barking, and his eyes fell on the one-eyed man, "Your Excellency came to the door in the middle of the night, disturbing people's dreams, and asking the boss to evict people. It is too overbearing.
