Chapter 67 Poison
Speedly walking under the blood moon, in the void, Xiao Wenjun thought to himself:
It would be better to open a tea shop outside the city for the ghosts and gods traveling from south to north to drink tea and rest. It's profitable, but considering the luxury of this teahouse, if it only sells tea, it won't be able to recoup the cost even if it runs for 800 years.
No ghost is willing to do business at a loss, so there must be some source of wealth inside this teahouse.
Judging from the fact that the woman opened her mouth to call a female ghost to herself, most likely this source of wealth has nothing to do with prostitution. It is probably either a business of killing people and selling goods, or abducting and selling ghosts. The whole thing is a devil's cave.
So now the question is, how should I reply to Qin Yao?
If you lure him into the teahouse, given his cautious and delicate temperament, you will definitely bring him with you.
At that time, if you refuse, it will arouse his suspicion. If you don't refuse, you will face the danger with him. No matter how you look at it, it will be a dilemma.
Thinking of this, she immediately gave up the idea of killing people with a borrowed knife, and descended into the void, like a goddess and concubine, floating in front of Qin Yao: "There is a teahouse in front of you. I think something is wrong. Do you want to go around it?" "Open?"
Just after saying this, Xiao Wenjun suddenly froze before Qin Yao could react...
So, are they now grasshoppers on a rope? All will be prosperous and harmonious, but if anything hurts Qin Yao, he will be affected to some extent or even implicated!
After thinking about this, Xiao Wenjun started to feel bad.
"What's wrong?" Qin Yao patted his forehead and tried to wake himself up.
Having been running all the way without sleep, eating or drinking for more than ten consecutive days, his spirit had already reached a critical point. When he heard the word "teahouse", his first reaction was whether he could rest inside.
“Isn’t it wrong enough that a luxurious teahouse is opened in the wilderness instead of in a place where ghosts and gods gather?” Xiao Wenjun said perfunctorily, not bothering to explain.
Qin Yao thought for a while and asked: "Are there any teahouses, restaurants or even inns around that you feel comfortable with? I need a safe and quiet place to restore my energy."
"It seems there is not." I don't know. Why, Xiao Wenjun felt somewhat guilty for no reason.
Qin Yao exhaled a breath and rubbed his eyebrows: "Let's go to that teahouse first. Even if something is wrong, it is better than sleeping in the cold wind in the wilderness."
Xiao Wenjun swooped into his shadow In the child, he said loudly: "I have told you everything I should remind you. If something unexpected happens, you can't blame me."
Qin Yao laughed dumbly and ignored her, holding the heavy The body walked step by step to the teahouse.
"Mr... brave man, you have worked hard all the way. Come into the shop and drink a cup of hot tea to get rid of your fatigue."
At the door of the tea house, an old woman with silver hair and a kind face saw someone coming and subconsciously asked He was called Young Master, but before the word '子' came out of his mouth, when he saw the figure of the ancient demon god clearly, he swallowed it down immediately and changed the title along the way.
Such a tall and sturdy man, whose fists can move mountains and whose arms can run horses, she really can't say the word "young master".
"What is a male warrior? Are there even female warriors?" Qin Yao scratched his head and asked with a surprised look on his face.
Mother... a strong man? ?
The corner of the old woman's mouth twitched, and her mind uncontrollably fantasized about the image of a strong woman, and she was suddenly confused by the wind.
This strong man... must be poisonous!
"The strong man is joking." The old woman took a deep breath and tried her best to restrain the negative emotions that were surging wildly in her heart.
Qin Yao blinked and asked seriously: "Where's the joke?"
The old woman: "..."
I beep beep beep beep beep (silenced)
Qin Yao: "What's wrong with you, your smile looks ugly."
The last polite smile on the old woman's face was stretched. Unable to hold on any longer, he said with a heavy breath: "Young man, have you ever heard of a saying that is too hard to break easily? If you keep talking like this, you will definitely break. "
Qin Yao nodded like he was being taught and hesitated for a moment, but did not ask: Am I a strong man or a young man...
Seeing that he finally closed his eyes. The old woman breathed a sigh of relief, turned sideways, and made an invitation gesture: "Come in."
Qin Yao walked in through the door and saw that the hall on the first floor was filled with neat maroon tables, and a set of teapots and teacups were placed on each table. Looking inside, he saw a piece of wood hanging on the wall at the end. On the plaque, there are four characters written in iron pen and silver hook: The tea is fragrant.
"What kind of tea would you like to drink, strong man?" After entering the hall, the old woman's face seemed to change and she returned to a smiling face.
Qin Yao: "I don't want to drink tea." The old woman: "..."
The smile froze.
"Can I stay in the hotel?" Qin Yao asked again.
The old woman did not dare to laugh, lest she be hurt by her meanness the next moment: "You can stay in a hotel. What kind of room does the warrior want?"
"What are the prices? ?”
“The cheaper one is 300 taels per night, the more expensive one is 500 taels per night, which is the best. The room is eight hundred taels a night.”
What she was talking about was the paper, not the banknotes. Qin Yao’s family happened to be the owner of Tiandi Bank. He could print as much money as he wanted on the paper, so he just printed it. He took out two five hundred taels of silver notes and handed them forward: "No need to look for them."
A bright light flashed in the old woman's eyes, and she quickly took the money with her palm. After checking the authenticity, she couldn't help but laugh again: "Thank you, strong man, I will take you to the room right now..."
The room for one night was really comfortable, so comfortable that Qin Yao didn't want to get up after lying on the bed.
"Strong man, if you have no other instructions, I will leave first." The old woman said standing at the door.
"Thank you, please help me open the door." Qin Yao responded with his eyes closed.
The old woman nodded silently, and when she walked out of the room, she gently closed the vermilion double wooden doors...
"Xiao Wenjun, come out." When the room fell into deep darkness, Qin Yao suddenly called softly.
"What's going on?" A ghostly shadow flew out of the floor.
"I will trouble you to watch the night for me tonight."
Xiao Wenjun was startled and said immediately: "No."
"You have no room to refuse." Qin Yao said lightly.
"I have."
"Hello."
"Speak!"
Xiao Wenjun, who received no response, approached the bed, but what he heard was Qin Yao snored slightly.
Xiao Wenjun was stunned.
She didn't know if this was trust.
Of course.
What she doesn’t even know is that Qin Yao is not asleep at this moment, but is secretly communicating with the system...
“System, if I encounter any danger while sleeping, Will you wake me up in advance?”
[Yes, the current version has a guardian mode, but two filial piety points are required every hour as a guardian fee. 】
"Two points of filial piety are not bad." Qin Yao breathed a sigh of relief and truly relaxed: "Turn on the guardian mode to warn of danger in advance."
[The guardian mode is turned on...]
Soon.
Qin Yao fell into the deepest sleep. Xiao Wenjun stood by the window sill and stared at the red moon in the sky in a daze, while a vague shadow slowly came to their door from the first floor. ……
