Grand Priest Gao stared at Ye Chen, the light in his eyes dancing. Finally, a smile appeared on his face and he simply nodded.
"We, a heretic, are all alone. Now there is a benefactor who is willing to spend money to treat me to drinks and tea. Why not?"
Ye Chen also smiled freely and spread his hands: "Please!"
Gao Daoren followed Ye Chen and Hua Nongying. Ye Chen chose an antique tavern. Both the decoration and the signboard looked like an ancient restaurant and teahouse.
Business in the tavern was deserted, with only Ye Chen sitting at the table. He was sitting opposite Gao Daodao, and Hua Nongying was sitting on his side.
"Boss, one pound of sorghum wine, one pound of braised beef, and a stack of peanuts!"
Ye Chen changed his usual calmness and shouted loudly at the counter.
"Wait!"
But at this moment, Master Gao waved his hand.
"There is enough meat and enough peanuts, but one pound of wine is far from enough!"
"Boss, if you pay ten pounds of sorghum wine, it will be on this benefactor!"
When the boss heard this, his expression changed drastically. Although the sorghum wine he had here was not very strong, it was definitely not low in alcohol content. One kilogram of it would be enough for an ordinary person to get drunk. This Taoist priest actually asked for ten kilograms at the first opening. Who can drink it?
Have to come over?
He looked at Ye Chen, but Ye Chen laughed twice and nodded.
"Listen to what the Taoist priest said, go get the bar!"
Hua Nongying raised her hand, and ten hundred-dollar bills were placed on the table. The boss accepted the money, immediately beamed with joy, and went to arrange for people to prepare.
After she paid, she couldn't help but look at the Taoist again, feeling very strange in her heart.
Taoist priests are just outsiders, and the person in front of me is holding floating dust and immortal Taoist bones. At first glance, he is a Taoist. Why can he drink alcohol and eat meat without any hesitation?
Gao Daoren put the fuchen on the table and asked Ye Chen with a smile on his face: "I'm happy if someone invites me to drink and eat meat, but I have a question!"
"Why did the donor take the initiative to invite me?"
Ye Chen raised his eyes slightly, remembering the past events, he felt quite sad for a moment, and said with emotion: "Because the Taoist priest has great kindness to me!"
"Oh?" Master Gao's expression changed slightly, and then he shook his head slightly.
"Donor, have you admitted the wrong person? I am in my eighty-fifth year and have met countless people, but I can be sure that I have never met the benefactor, so how can I express my gratitude to him again?"
Before Ye Chen could answer, the bartender had already brought three porcelain bowls and two large wine jars.
"Please be patient, you three. The beef and peanuts will be here soon!"
The bartender left, Hua Nongying picked up the wine jar and prepared to pour wine for Ye Chen and the Taoist, but Ye Chen gently pressed down her delicate hand.
"Xiaoying, I'm drinking with the Taoist priest, I don't need a bowl!"
He gently pushed the wine jar in front of the Taoist.
"Since you want to drink and have fun, of course it's one person per person, Taoist Priest, drink!"
Ye Chen said, grabbed another wine jar with one hand, raised it and drank.
"Okay, this time I came to the capital, I really didn't expect to meet a friend who cares so much about me. I'm so happy!"
With a smile on his face, Gao Dadaoren also grabbed the wine jar, touched Ye Chen head-on, and then poured it into his mouth.
More than ten seconds later, the two of them put down the wine jar at the same time, their clothes were soaked, and only 30% of the five kilograms of wine in the wine jar was left.
“Good wine!”
The Taoist nodded in praise and turned to Ye Chen again.
"Wine is good wine, but I haven't answered my question yet, little friend, how can I owe you any kindness?"
Ye Chen's eyes were deep and he said quietly: "Eight years ago, I had lost all my martial arts skills and was confused and depressed. I happened to pass by the foot of Wudang Mountain and was lucky enough to see the Taoist priest doing a set of Tai Chi circles. I had some enlightenment and was inspired.
It has made me what I am today!”
"To the Taoist priest, you are just a set of punches, but to me, you have created a world. This can be called a reinvention!"
Hua Nongying's beautiful eyes widened, and she realized that it turned out that Ye Chen was able to regain martial arts and dominate the world because he was inspired by this person.
"Oh?" Gao Daodao's eyes narrowed when he heard this. He suddenly remembered the scene where he flew down to the foot of Wudang Mountain eight years ago and used Tai Chi to prove his final state.
At that time, a young man dressed in shabby clothes and covered in dust was standing on a hill in the distance and stared at him, but he ignored him.
Now, Ye Chen's figure gradually overlaps with that thin and lonely back.
"It turns out to be you!"
The Taoist laughed loudly, drank with Ye Chen again, and drank the remaining 30%.
Ye Chen put down the wine jar and looked happy.
"Ever since I met the Taoist priest by chance that day, I originally thought that we might never meet again in this life, but I never expected that we would meet again at the capital city market!"
"The Taoist priest should be a master of Wudang. Why do you want to come to the capital?"
Gao Daodao was about to use his chopsticks to eat meat. When he heard Ye Chen's question, his palms paused slightly, his eyes flashed slightly, and his voice became calmer.
"Walking for a while, having a drink, killing someone, it's a big deal!"
Even though he didn't show too much, Hua Nongying could hear the extremely pure murderous intention in his voice, which was the ultimate intention that transcended emotions and grudges.
At this moment, she could be sure that the person in front of her was definitely a peerless figure who transcended heaven and earth.
"Oh?" Ye Chen put his chin on his hand and his eyes changed a bit. Daoist Gao was from Wudang. Although he could not detect the depth of the Taoist's strength, the inadvertent exposure of the Taoist's aura was enough to give him a rough estimate.
.
This is definitely an existence stronger than the gods!
A few days ago, he had just killed an extraordinary sub-god who was born in Wudang Mountain, and a few days later, a peerless strongman who was also born in Wudang appeared in the capital. This is no coincidence.
He already had a bad premonition in his heart!
After pondering for a moment, Ye Chen suddenly spoke with a faint tone.
"I wonder if the person the Taoist Master wants to kill is named Ye Lingtian?"
When he asked this question, Gao Daodao's expression suddenly dropped.
He glanced at Ye Chen with extremely powerful and coercive eyes, and the entire restaurant immediately fell into a state of panic.
"Tell me, where is he?"
Naturally, Gao Daoren was invited by Jiang Haitian from Wudang Mountain and rushed to the capital to prepare for Ye Chen's Wudang leader, Zhang Ling.
Ye Chen moved the wine jar in front of him with a helpless smile on his lips.
"To be honest with you, Taoist Master, I am Ye Lingtian!"
In an instant, the situation in the tavern changed dramatically!
In the tavern, the air suddenly solidified. On the first floor where Ye Chen and others were, countless wind currents surged, shattering the tables and chairs around them. The wine jars burst, countless drinks splashed everywhere, and the aroma of wine filled the sky.
The boss and several bartenders didn't know what happened, and their faces turned pale with fear.
"So you are Ye Lingtian!"
Zhang Zhilin's eyes changed wildly. He glanced at him and his unprovoked momentum turned into a violent wind and rushed towards Ye Chen.
Ye Chen had a wry smile on his face. After eight years, he saw Zhang Zhiling again, but it was not a pleasant meeting.
He did not expect that the target of Zhang Ling and his entourage from Beijing would be him.
A strong wind swept through, but Ye Chen could not see his movements. The violent wind was unable to get close to his body. There seemed to be an invisible protective film in front of him and Hua Nong, firmly protecting the two of them.
The two momentums collided in front of the table, and the entire restaurant was trembling. The next moment, there was a muffled sound in the air, and a ripple of power rippled along the place where the two of them were. There were several towering fir trees planted around the restaurant.
Trees, but at the same time, they seemed to have been cut by a sharp knife, and they were all cut off at the waist.
Several abandoned courtyard buildings around the tavern collapsed on the spot!
Hua Nongying's beautiful eyes were shocked. Ye Chen and Zhang Ling did not take action. It was just a chance confrontation, but it had such destructive power. If they attack with all their strength, I am afraid that all buildings within a hundred feet of this area may be destroyed.
for ruins.
"What a great Ye Lingtian! Rumor has it that you became famous at a young age, killing strong men in the martial arts world, and even the Tianji Tower personally gave you a nickname. After seeing you today, you are well-deserved!"
