Chapter 80 Sister-in-law

 Looking at the persimmons with frost in front of him, Li Huowang shook his head in refusal.

"Don't eat too much. When you go to the inn and order some good food, you won't be able to eat anymore."

But Li Huowang's reminder did not slow down their eating speed.

"It's okay, I can still eat after eating these."

"That's right, that's right, I will eat even if I am dying! It's so fucking uncomfortable to be hungry. Hey, Senior Brother Li, aren't you hungry?"

Li Huowang smiled and said nothing. He led the horse and continued walking forward. Not far ahead was the inn.

"Senior Brother Li, I bought you ready-made clothes, why don't you try them on?"

Li Huowang shook his head again, "Forget it, I'm used to wearing Taoist robes. Just change the inner layer. Also, you should cover your eyes, otherwise it will hurt again."

The two carriages squeezed in the dense crowd for a long time and finally arrived in front of the inn.

The excited dog boy held up the golden beans in his hand and rushed in first.

"Waiter! Give Uncle Cao Cao the best floor! Then serve braised pork!! Only fat meat, not lean meat! Four big bowls!!"

Li Huowang pushed him away and walked in. He looked around at the townspeople chatting while eating, and said to the waiter who came over: "You don't have to go to a private room, just eat in the lobby. I like the excitement."

"Senior Brother Li, we have money, what can we eat in this lobby? It's noisy and——"

After being glared at by Li Huowang, the jumping Gouwa deflated like a frosted eggplant.

When he sat down at a wooden table, the sounds of conversations around him began to pour into Li Huowang's ears.

"Mother Baowen, be careful of being put in small shoes, your mother-in-law really said that behind your back."

"If you ask me, if others are kicking their noses, just fight! We are fighting together and we are not afraid of anyone. Although I have disbanded and returned to the field, if I really want to transfer the general order, I will return to the camp immediately without saying a word!"

"Hehehe, brother Ziqi, it's my fault, my wife has been nagging me a few words, so please take your time. I will punish myself with three cups of wine."

"Hey! Look, that Taoist priest is so strange, his robe is actually red..."

Waiting until the waiter served the food, Li Huowang didn't get the information he wanted to hear.

According to his understanding, this town is so close to the nunnery, and it should have a certain impact on the people nearby, good or bad.

As a result, judging from the reaction of the people in the town, the nunnery’s sense of existence is very low.

But this method doesn't work. Li Huowang has other methods.

"Two dragons playing with pearls~Three Yangs flourish~Fish leaps over the dragon gate~Hehe! The dishes are ready~ Dear guests, please use it!"

After announcing the name of the dish, the waiter was about to leave when he was grabbed by Li Huowang.

"Oh, this real person, you see how busy this inn is, right?"

Before the waiter said the word "residence", he was blocked by a golden bean in Li Huowang's hand.

"Do you know about Mount Henghua over there?"

"I know, I know!"

"There is a nunnery on the mountain. I heard that the incense is very prosperous? The Bodhisattva there is very efficacious?"

Hearing this, the waiter's face showed a trace of confusion. "The incense is at its peak? No, the incense in Anci'an is not as good as the incense in Tuye."

"Huh?" Li Huowang looked at Xiaoman who was eating. This was not the same thing as what she was talking about.

"My neighbor said that the incense is very popular." Xiaoman put down his chopsticks in embarrassment.

"Hey, then your neighbor must be lying. The Bodhisattva in Anci'an has fallen into a layer of ashes. If there is incense, there will be ghosts."

"Master, you can't be wrong about what I said. My second sister's nephew, a widow from another village, went to Anci'an to be her sister-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Li Huowang suddenly became energetic. "Oh? Why did she go there to be a nun? Are there any requirements for being a nun there?"

The waiter looked around with a hesitant expression.

When Li Huowang thrust the golden bean into his hand, the waiter brought his mouth to his and deliberately lowered his voice.

"Her husband is dead, and her natal family is far away. She has not yet been able to give birth to a son, so she was deprived of her family by the villagers. She became a daughter-in-law only after she was cornered. Who would want to be a daughter-in-law if she could survive?"

"Oh...that's what happened." Li Huowang nodded thoughtfully.

Judging from the information collected so far, these nuns should be fairly normal and not much different from what Li Zhilin said before his death.

"Then do you know why those nuns wear black clothes?" Li Huowang took out another golden bean.

"Hey, those are not black clothes. My sister-in-law's clothes are blue. I don't know if there is a well on the mountain or something. They never take a bath or change their clothes. The clothes suddenly changed from blue to black."

Speaking of this, the waiter's face was filled with disgust.

"That day, a few ladies came down to sell pigs. I saw one of them rubbing her neck. Hey! Guess what? She rolled out a black mud ball as big as a jujube!!"

As soon as the waiter said this, the people nearby put down their chopsticks with embarrassed expressions.

With a "pop", a palm hit the waiter on the back of the head.

"The distinguished guests are eating! What are you talking about here? Do you want to ruin the reputation of my Penglai Inn?"

"Shopkeeper, that's not true. It was the real person who asked, so I said it!"

Seeing the fat shopkeeper pressing down on the waiter to apologize and dragging him away, Li Huowang picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"Senior Brother Li, what do you want to ask, we can help you."

Gouwa said, picking up a piece of greasy meat and stuffing it into his mouth.

"Okay, what can you ask with that spotted face? Don't scare people to death. Baolu, after you finish your meal, help me go to town to ask about news about Anci'an."

Among the medicine guides, only this man with good water quality looks completely normal.

Sun Baolu, who had never felt his presence, was stunned for a moment, then nodded silently.

Li Huowang glanced at him and continued eating. His normal appearance did not mean that he was normal.

This man never takes off his clothes to sleep. Even when he goes to the toilet, he has to avoid others, both men and women.

There must be a reason why he was chosen by Danyangzi as a medicine guide hidden under his clothes.

But Li Huowang didn't want to ask too many questions and judge others by himself, and he didn't want others to discuss his mental state with him.

After a period of time, Li Huowang stayed in this inn.

He sent Taoist boys and Baolu respectively to inquire about Anci'an.

Li Huowang doesn’t want what happened at Zhengde Temple to happen again.

After asking around for a while, and even sending Bao Lu to visit the mountain, Li Huowang was reluctantly sure that the nuns were not a big threat.

What people in the town say most about nuns is that they are dirty, lazy and fat.

"If I don't come down the next day, you will leave here immediately, do you hear me?"

Li Huowang stood in front of the dirt road up the mountain and gave instructions to other medicine guides.

"Senior Brother Li, let's go together."

"Why are we going? Are we going to be a burden? Is this really an outing?"

As soon as Li Huowang said these words, he felt that he had said it too seriously, but he did not explain anything, turned around and climbed up the mountain alone.

Looking at the retreating figure, Bai Lingmiao bit her lip with tears in her eyes and seemed to want to say something.

But he didn't say anything until he disappeared into the mountains.
