"Everyone, stand down!" the old man ordered loudly, preventing his men from leading the troops into the teahouse. "You are waiting here. You are not allowed to enter the teahouse!"
The subordinates looked at each other in confusion. Although they could not understand what was going on, they did not dare to disobey the order.
When I found General Huang entering the teahouse alone, all the customers inside stood up and knelt down on both sides one after another.
On the second floor where Jia Zhengjin was, everyone also backed away from the stairs and knelt down on the left and right.
"Old General Huang is here, kneel down quickly!" When the storyteller knelt down, he did not forget to tug on Jia Zhengjin's clothes and whispered a reminder.
Jia Zhengjin glanced at him without any reaction and continued to drink tea.
"Thump thump thump..." The old general rushed up the stairs very quickly.
The storyteller was even more anxious. He pulled Jia Zhengjin's clothes from the side: "Hurry! Kneel down! Hurry!"
Jia Zhengjin still ignored him and poured himself a glass leisurely without even looking at the old general.
The storyteller wondered where this came from, and sprayed the old general in the face from the window, but refused to kneel down to greet him.
General Huang is a big shot, he can make your head fall off with just one sentence!
Forget it, I have reminded you anyway, benevolence is the ultimate duty.
Except for Jia Zhengjin, everyone at the scene knelt nervously and did not dare to raise their heads.
The old general had already arrived at the table. He didn't even look at the civilians kneeling on the left and right, and walked up to Jia Zhengjin with a slight excitement.
It's over, it's over! The old general will definitely kill people with his sword. With his status, let alone killing a civilian, even if he kills more people, the emperor will not interfere.
Everyone held their breath and did not dare to speak.
The old general arrived at the table and observed Jia Zhengjin carefully for a while. Finally he opened his mouth and asked cautiously: "Brother Jia?"
Jia Zhengjin glanced sideways at him and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Huang Shao, Old General Huang!"
"Sure enough, it's Brother Jia!" Huang Shao showed a surprised expression, "I thought my eyes were wrong. Brother Jia is indeed one of the gods. Time has not affected your appearance at all."
What's going on? Not only was Old General Huang not angry after having tea sprayed on his face, but he was so polite to this person? Judging from the old general's tone, this guest has a good background?
"I'm sorry, General Huang. I didn't expect to see you just now, so I couldn't help but spray you in the face." Jia Zhengjin said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter!" This old general Huang is none other than Huang Shao. "Speaking of it, Shao has not seen the monk for seventy or eighty years! I thought I would never see him again in this life, but I never thought that we would meet here on the way back home!"
"I'll just sit here casually. You need to leave first!" Jia Zhengjin waved his hand.
"It's so rare to meet a monk, how can we just say goodbye?" Huang Shao said hurriedly, "Shao is bold and wants to invite the monk to accompany him."
"Come with us?"
"This is a rare opportunity. Shao would like to ask Brother Jia to go to Qimu Town with him to visit Brother Jun who is lying on the bed." Huang Shao sincerely requested.
Brother Jun? Are you Diao Jun?
Jia Zhengjin turned his head and asked, "Is he sick?"
"Hey, I'm old!" Huang Shao sighed, "In addition, there are hidden wounds left on the battlefield these years. Shao is obviously older, but why is it Brother Jun who can't hold on first... Monk, I don't know
Is there any way you can cure Brother Jun's illness and extend his life? A magical person like you always has a way! If possible, Shao would rather trade his own lifespan for Brother Jun to live a few more years."
"You brothers still have such a good relationship!" Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but sigh.
"I ask the monk to remember that we met you in the past, brother, and we must prolong Brother Jun's life!" Huang Shao knelt down on one knee, "Shao is willing to exchange the rest of his life!"
It turns out that this guest is disguised as a god? Does General Huang know him?
The storyteller and all the people present were shocked.
When they saw General Huang kneeling down and kowtowing, they all kowtowed accordingly and shouted in unison: "Please have mercy on the gods! Please bless General Huang!!"
Whether it was out of sincerity or to curry favor with Huang Shao, the atmosphere at the scene was quite touching.
"Brother Jia, Immortal Jia..." Huang Shao's eyes were filled with pleading.
Jia Zhengjin drank tea calmly, looking at Huang Shao and thinking secretly.
Anyway, it's okay, and you can learn more about the stories that happened in the current world in the seventies and eighties through Huang Shao. It would not be a bad idea to go with him to meet Diao Jun.
Thinking of this, he smiled and nodded: "We haven't seen each other in seventy or eighty years. It's rare that you still remember me! Meeting each other is fate, and I will follow you to Qimu Town!"
"Thank you so much, Brother Jia!" Huang Shao showed a surprised expression, "Brother, regarding the matter of extending Brother Jun's life..."
"People have life and death, and the laws of heaven are cyclical." Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "It would not be a good thing if I intervened! Besides, I have an agreement with the four heavenly emperors not to interfere with the rules of this world..."
"You actually know four emperors of heaven?" Huang Shao was stunned, and other people also showed expressions of disbelief.
After all, the Four Heavenly Palaces and the Four Heavenly Emperors are the supreme beings in this world.
"I have some friendship with the four Heavenly Emperors. I can at most ask Diao Jun if he can extend his life by a few years. I will never intervene and change the rules at will!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly.
"Brother Jia, Shao is willing to trade his own life for it!" Huang Shao said hurriedly, "Shao is satisfied with his life till now. Brother Jun is younger than Shao..."
"It's not age that matters when it comes to lifespan!" Jia Zhengjin shrugged, "Some people don't die even at one or two hundred years old, and some die just after they're born. Who can I talk to for explanation?"
"Please ask the monk to move downstairs and take Shao's carriage..." No matter what, Huang Shao's only thought now is to take back "Jia Shenxian" whose appearance has not changed before him.
Jia Zhengjin looked out of the window and shook his head: "The carriage is uncomfortable! Do you dare to ride in the clouds with me?"
"Ah?" Huang Shao was stunned, "Friar, you mean..."
"It's very fast to ride through the clouds and fog. You don't have to ride a horse-drawn carriage all the way. If you're afraid, forget it!"
"Please be sure to bring Shao Tengyun back with you!" Huang Shao said hurriedly, "Wait for a moment while Shao makes arrangements!"
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin poured a cup of tea and took a slow sip.
Huang Shao walked to the window and ordered to the generals below: "This general is going back to Qimu Town with the gods. You will set off immediately to garrison in Qimu Town!"
"But General..."
"Immediately execute the military order!"
"Here!!" Huang Shao ordered loudly. His subordinates did not dare to disobey and immediately led the army to move forward along the road.
Huang Shao turned around and bowed to Jia Zhengjin: "God, when will we set off?"
He has now changed his name to not being called a monk, because this "Jia monk" knows all the four heavenly emperors, and can even fly in the clouds. If this is not a god, what is a god?
"When I finish drinking this pot of tea," Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "there is no need to worry! By the way, tell them to stop kneeling, it looks awkward."
"Yes! Everyone, please get up!"
"Thank you, General Huang! Thank you, Goddess!" (To be continued)
