Chapter 43: The Celestial Master Riding a Pig

When the smoke started to rise, the townspeople dispersed.

The traveler sat back on his seat with satisfaction and saw a cup of herbal tea. When he picked it up to drink, Yu Sheng took it away and placed it on the next table.

"Hey, you..."

"The tea is cold." Yu Sheng poured them three more cups of tea. He turned around and looked at the old monk who came in through the door.

Yu Sheng didn't take it seriously, "Sit down, the food will be ready soon."

The young monk had already smelled the aroma of the food and said greedily: "It smells so good, Master, why does it taste so bad when I ask you to cook it?"

The old monk's heart was as calm as water, and his face did not change as he said: "There is no limit to the desires of the mouth and stomach. As a monk, restraint is the way to become a Buddha."

When the young monk heard this, he rubbed his belly with some reluctance, "Then I will eat less today."

The old monk raised his brows and said, "No need. Only when you are full can you have the energy to chant sutras."

The young monk made sense after hearing this. Cao'er, who was sitting on the long table, raised his head and glanced at the old monk. Unexpectedly, he was still a big liar.

The inn must first settle the animals in the backyard before the guests can eat. Now this has become a free and happy job.

When he went to the back to pour food, he saw the stone and asked curiously: "Shopkeeper, what is this?"

"It's used for making tofu." Yu Sheng said casually.

The guests' food was quickly served on the table, and what surprised the martial artist was that Yu Sheng also placed a portion of the food on the adjacent table.

He once heard someone say that although it is inconvenient for ghosts to raise glasses and exchange chopsticks in front of people, they can still be seventy or eighty percent full from the smell.

The martial artist looked at Yu Sheng and suddenly understood why this inn was called "The Inn with Demonic Qi".

After arranging the guests properly, Yu Sheng just sat down to eat at the long table when the traveler exclaimed: "Hey, this meal is so delicious."

"This dish is also delicious." Another foot trader pointed at the green vegetables and said.

"The shopkeeper's craftsmanship is excellent." They gave a thumbs up to Yu Sheng.

After hearing the praise, Yu Sheng smiled slightly, pretending to be a superior person, but the proud look in his eyes could not be hidden from Cao'er.

She made a face to Yu Sheng and said, "Here comes a jar of wine."

If you don't give it to me for the rest of my life, "You ruined a lot of my morning, and I still have to wait to entertain guests for the rest of my life."

"What does it mean to waste? It's all for you, okay?" Cao'er said unconvinced.

Yu Sheng pulled the vegetables towards him and said, "Don't eat the broken vegetables."

"I won't eat until you break it." Cao'er pulled it over again, took a big bite, went to the counter to get a jar of wine, and poured a bowl for Liu Liu.

The old monk and his disciples sat at the end of the long table, with Yuri Zheng accompanying them.

Yu Sheng saw the young monk hiding from the two of them and said, "Why did you bully the young monk?"

Cao'er looked at the little monk strangely, rolled his eyes and said, "The devil knows."

Yu Sheng glanced at the table next to the martial arts master and saw the woman smelling the aroma of rice with an expression of enjoyment on her face, and said, "Ghosts really don't know."

The young monk heard Yu Sheng defended him, and after a moment of hesitation, he ran to Yu Sheng's ear and whispered something.

"Brother Sheng, be careful." After the little monk said that, he ran back to his seat.

"Haha." Yu Sheng laughed, not expecting that the old monk also taught the young monk this way.

He looked back at Cao'er, who had the potential to become a tigress.

"Hey, where are our Jin Yiwei?" Bai Xing was half full after eating before he remembered Fu Nan who fought side by side yesterday.

Li Zhengdao: "He just borrowed some rice and noodles, and he should be cooking now."

Yu Sheng poked his head out the door and saw thick smoke billowing from the house opposite, "He's not cooking, he should be burning the house down."

After the meal, the merchant and the martial artist went to rest, Cao'er sent Liu Liu out of the town, the monk also went to prepare for the ritual, and the inn soon became quiet.

When Yu Sheng was clearing away the dishes, he caught a glimpse of the woman finally unable to resist the temptation of food and picking up her chopsticks.

The woman turned around and saw Yu Sheng looking at him, then shyly put down her chopsticks.

"Okay, feel free to use it, you won't scare others."

Yu Sheng comforted her, and it was not surprising that she was happy to see Bai Bai, so she began to eat with confidence.

At noon, the sun was scorching like fire, and the cicadas were noisy outside the door, accompanied by the sound of running water.

Yu Sheng and Bai Gaoxing were chatting one after another, but when they turned around, they saw Fu Nan walking in with a disgraced face.

A pair of chopsticks stopped immediately.

"Here's some food." Fu Nan said with a straight face and put a few pennies on the table.

Yu Sheng went back to the kitchen and took out a portion, "Let's use it as a reward for last night."

The rich man cooked for himself because he was short of money. Now after hearing what Yu Sheng said, he sat down and ate without any ceremony.

"Drive, drive." Just at this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves on the road outside the inn, and they stopped at the door of the inn for a moment.

Fu Nan looked back and saw four men in gray clothes carrying knives, with sweat on their faces and dust on their faces, stepping into the inn.

"Waiter, let me bring you two jars of wine first," one person said in a hurry.

"Always the same altar." Yu Sheng said to them.

"Then let's have a meal first." The four of them didn't bother to argue with Yu Sheng.

After a bowl of wine was poured down and the panic and heat were suppressed, a man in gray clothes said, "It's the boy's misfortune that's his fault, we really can't blame him."

Others echoed, "That idiot deserved to die. I told him there was something fishy in that teahouse, but he didn't believe me, so he just went up and swallowed it in one bowl."

"This man, when you walk in the wilderness, you need to eat something. You can't use the food and wine if you can't bring them over." The man said and took a sip of wine.

"Yes, yes." The others nodded, "You can't imitate that idiot. You see, you are on the right track now."

"Hey, is this inn okay?" someone said casually.

The air suddenly became quiet. These four people arranged for others for a long time, but it turned out that they were also stupid.

"What," one person said after a while, he realized, "It's okay. I saw that the sword pouch on the archway is gone. The lord of Yangzhou City is here to protect me. It's okay."

The other three people nodded, and they all breathed a sigh of relief to prove that they were not idiots.

As a royal guard, Fu Nan is very alert.

He stood up and asked the four guests, holding the handle of the knife at his waist, "Who is dead? Who is dead? This is a big case."

The four people looked at Rich and Poor, their eyes seemed to say, why is there a fool here?

"Wipe the rice grains off your face." Bai Gaoxing pushed him and said to the guest, "Who did you just say was killed?"

The four people who escaped from danger were short of an audience, so they immediately told them about the stupid people they met on the road.

This idiot brother has a very bad reputation among the four of them.

After "erluzi", the four people added four idioms: "shameless", "oil-headed noodle", "shameless" and "cowardly" respectively, before telling Yu Sheng and others.

Also on the Yangzhou Road, when they were riding horses and running wildly, they saw a man riding a pig in front of them, riding alone on the road.

The man was dressed in a long white coat with lifelike dragons embroidered with golden silk thread. His demeanor was graceful and unrestrained, and the four of them were immediately astonished.

Being such a maverick and daring to go alone in the wilderness, he must be capable, so when the man suggested that they go together, they agreed.

While walking together, a gust of wind blew up the man's white robe, inadvertently revealing five copper coins on his chest.

This is a five-money heavenly master!

The four of them became close friends, worked diligently to please him, and served him very well along the way.

I heard that the man went out in a hurry and forgot to bring dry food, so the four people gave it to him without saying a word.

Hearing that he was thirsty, the four of them were reluctant to drink water on a hot day, so they gave him water to drink.

The sun was scorching like fire, and they stayed away until noon. The four of them rested under a tree with him and listened to him bragging to them about his great achievements.

"That guy is so shameless." One of the men remembered it now and pounded the table with hatred. "He has captured all the things he said about cutting teeth, sealing, and trimming snakes."
