Zi Chen was startled and turned around subconsciously. He had been very focused before, but he didn't even notice the old man approaching.
This old man was a coachman, but after what happened today, Zi Chen would certainly not treat him as an ordinary coachman anymore.
Although the coachman didn't do much today.
This was the driver on the second carriage loaded with goods. The old man came to Zi Chen's side and looked down at the barbecue.
Noah leaned to the side, leaving a place for him.
After the old man sat down, he looked at the little beast on the charcoal fire. He took a deep breath and praised: "It smells really good!"
It seemed as if the old man really came here just for the barbecue.
Zi Chen began to turn over the willow branches, and the little beast also rolled over. The surface gradually began to change color, and droplets of grease fell on the charcoal fire, making a sizzling sound.
I have to say, this technique looks very professional.
The meat is fragrant.
The old man's eyes shone brightly and his saliva almost flowed out.
"Little doll, what is your relationship with Ted?"
It would obviously take some time for the meat to be cooked, and he couldn't just watch helplessly, so the old man took the initiative to speak.
"The relationship between the shopkeeper and the tenants." Zi Chen said, keeping his eyes on the barbecue flipping.
"It's just such a simple relationship? How can he give you such a fat job?" The old man obviously didn't believe it.
Zi Chen smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "Fat Chai? This old man really knows how to joke."
"How do you say it?" The old man turned to look at Zi Chen.
"If I had a choice, I would still be willing to stay in the inn, and I would be happy to give this job to others."
While talking, Zi Chen did not look at the old man.
Shanya and Noah, who were standing next to him, remained silent. Although they were not as knowledgeable as Zi Chen, they could see that the old man was definitely not someone who wanted to talk when he had nothing to say.
The old man gently snapped his fingers, and a breeze seemed to blow by. The oily smoke falling on the coals changed its direction slightly.
"No one can hear what you say. Come on, why isn't this a fat job?"
The old man asked with a smile.
"What else is there to say? There are more than a dozen Soul Void Realms in a team, how can this be called a fat one?"
Listening to Zi Chen's indifferent tone, the old man's expression did not change, but the expressions of Noah and Shan Ya changed.
There are more than a dozen souls in their team?
How come there are so many?
Seeing Zi Chen concentrating on the barbecue, the old man said with some dissatisfaction: "Little guy, you see that I have shown such magical powers in front of you, and you just say such useless nonsense? Are you worthy of me?
Do you have supernatural powers?"
Zi Chen said: "I vaguely felt a breath before, and it was wandering around, as if I was being watched, so I suspect that the previous sneak attack was just a test. There will be a crisis in the next few days."
The old man said: "So, you are going to divide the things and run away?"
"It's impossible to run away. Since we agreed to this mission, we will naturally do our best to complete it. However, you may not need us."
"Well, the meat is cooked. Do you want to try it?"
Zi Chen then turned his head and glanced at the old man. The other person actually came to him. This was something Zi Chen never expected.
Moreover, the other party also showed his identity as a strong person.
However, Zi Chen did not feel flattered in his heart, but instead felt heavy.
"Of course I'll eat it, otherwise what would I do here?"
The old man was not polite and reached out to grab it.
At this time, from the perspective of other people around, everything was normal at Zi Chen's place, except that a few people were sharing the barbecue, which smelled quite fragrant, which made many people find it difficult to swallow the dry food in their hands.
"Humph, you really don't know any manners at all!"
Smelling the aroma of meat, the maid Xiaoyu snorted dissatisfiedly. Ever since the scene during the day, she may have been frightened, and her arrogant arrogance has restrained a lot.
The little dumb guy next to him smiled.
Two little beasts, divided among four people.
Before leaving, the old man patted Zi Chen on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Young man, your craftsmanship is indeed good."
Zi Chen looked at the other person with disgust, and the old man laughed and returned to the chariot.
Zi Chen's whole body soul vibrated, and he wiped away the oil stains on his shoulders. He murmured in his heart, if he wants to show his strength, he doesn't have to do this, right?
At that moment before, there was an inexplicable force that suppressed him, making his body unable to move at all.
As a result, there were oil stains on my shoulders.
Yi Kang watched the old man leave with a look of doubt in his eyes.
After what happened today, he also knew that there were quite a few people in the Soul Void Realm in the team. At the moment, he had not thought of a good way to complete the city lord's instructions.
The next day was uneventful. In the evening, the old man came to Zi Chen's place again to get some food. This time, Zi Chen roasted three little beasts at once.
Under the mocking eyes of everyone, Zi Chen handed a roasted golden beast to Xiao Ya.
Xiao Mum's pretty face turned red, and she gave the barbecue to Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu glared at Zi Chen fiercely, and then took the barbecue from Xiao Mum's hand.
After that, the three of them shared the meal.
When Zi Chen returned, joking laughter could be heard from all around, and occasionally there was the sound of a toad trying to eat swan meat.
Zi Chen was not angry about this.
Sitting next to the bonfire again, the old man looked at Zi Chen and said with a smile: "Why, have you fallen in love with Xiao Ya?"
Zi Chen glanced at the old man and said nothing.
The old man sighed and said: "It's a pity that Xiaoya has been with the lady since he was a child, so it's impossible for him to get married. But I have to say that your boy has really good vision. Xiaoya is extremely talented. If you can really marry
She, then she will protect you like a young lady from now on."
The place here is not big, and everyone is a good player, so the old man spread his voice without deliberately lowering it.
For a moment, boos broke out everywhere.
Xiaodu's cheeks turned red and he turned his head to one side, eager to find a place to get in.
"You toad, stop daydreaming. Xiaodu is going to marry with the young lady, how can she marry a mud-legged person like you?" Xiao Yu said disdainfully.
"Xiaoyu, don't be rude to the young master."
From the carriage, the young lady's voice came again, "Thank you so much, Master Zichen. I didn't expect that your skills would be so extraordinary."
"You're welcome, miss."
For the next two nights, the old man would come over to eat and drink, teasing Zi Chen from time to time.
The danger did not appear again, as if the scene that day was really just a few thieves who didn't know the heights of the world and entered this place by mistake.
But Zi Chen obviously doesn't think so.
It was early in the morning, the wind was warm and the sun was shining, and everyone continued on their way.
Yi Kang's eyes swept around him like cold electricity, and he was detecting every move nearby.
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred.
I saw the ground all around suddenly tumbling, and then there was a loud sound, but one masked man after another jumped out of the ground and launched an attack on the guards who were close at hand.
