After a quarter of an hour, there was a knock on the door, and a female voice rang out: "Guest officer, is it convenient to come in?"

"Enter. Don't think about it too much, and then say.

The door opened, and a middle-aged woman walked in, it turned out to be the proprietress of the Ruyi Inn who came in with a few meals. The smell of incense hooked Bei Zero's nose, and she sat up with her hands on her back.

The proprietress hurriedly put down the food and came over to help.

Don't give a nod of thanks.

"Guest, these are a few specialties of the small shop, and I don't know if they suit your appetite, so you can try them first. If you need anything else, I'll tell my men to do it. The proprietress rubbed her hands together and looked at Bei Ling with a smile and said.

"Who asked you to come?" asked Be-Zero, who suddenly thought of it.

"Oh, it's your husband. The proprietress smiled even brighter.

"My husband?" asked Be, who almost missed the whip and asked in disbelief.

The proprietress looked at Bei Ling's reaction and explained: "Just now, the guest in this room instructed Xiao Er to prepare some food and send it to the room, saying that someone was going to be hungry, and specially asked the female family to send it." I just came in and saw you, and I thought that you two must be a couple. Not to mention anything else, your husband really hurts people. ”

"I'm telling you, he's not my husband. Put things down, you go and get busy. "Don't Zero seems to have been dug up a piece of meat, and there is a feeling in my heart that I can't explain.

The proprietress agreed, walked out of the room, closed the door, and sighed to herself: "It seems that the two of them should have quarreled, alas, it's good to be young, and there are so many minds to quarrel." ”

At this time, he was already very hungry, and he couldn't care about much, although he was holding back a fire in his heart, he still couldn't resist the temptation of things, grabbed his chopsticks and began to eat, thinking: "When you come back, the old lady will settle accounts with you!"

Qianqiu and Yang Xian used it too early, so they left the inn and went to the west of the city.

It takes a while to get from Ruyi Inn to the west of the city.

After the ceremony, the people in Huanghu City seemed to be tired, and there were not many people the next morning.

When the two arrived at Chengxi Street, they found that there were many shops, and they didn't know where the tea shop should be for a while, and they would definitely waste a lot of time when they looked at it.

So, the two of them summed it up and planned to ask someone to inquire.

There were not many people on the street, and when Yang first saw a passerby, he stopped: "Brother Tai, I'm bothering." I want to find a tea merchant surnamed Ni. Do you know if there is a tea shop owner surnamed Ni in this area?"

Passers-by looked at Yang Xian and said without thinking: "What you are looking for should be Lao Ni, playing cards in front." After speaking, he pointed to a small tea stall in front of him, and left.

"Thank you!" Yang Xian thanked this person,

"Playing cards?" When Qianqiu heard these two words, he and Yang Xian walked in the direction of their fingers.

Just not far from the front there are a few shops next to each other, selling rice, selling noodles, one of them is a tea shop, a table is placed in a small open space in front of the shop, four middle-aged men sit in a circle holding the cards are playing happily, and there are a few neighborhoods around to see the bustle.

"Isn't this kind of entertainment interesting?" Qianqiu asked Yang Xian.

Yang Xian shook his head and said that he didn't quite understand either.

"Excuse me, which one is Boss Ni?" Yang asked first.

None of the people present paid attention to Yang Xian.

"Hahaha, huh, huh! give money, give money!" shouted a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and holding a twig in his mouth.

Qianqiu looked closely, there was a shallow scar on the man's face, a mustache was very distinctive, he was wearing a tuanhua gown, and he had a solid figure.

"I'll see. The neighbor put his head out.

"Fried Hu, fried Hu!"

"Fart, when did I lie to you! The man threw the branch away and scoffed.

Everyone saw that there was no problem, and they were silent, and the remaining three people gave money one after another, and someone said: "Old Ni, you have won more than a dozen in a row, don't you take a break?"

When Qianqiu and Yang Xian heard this, they knew that it should be Ni Zhujun who won the money.

"If you have money, you don't make a bastard, keep walking!" Lao Ni began to rub cards again.

A neighbor who was standing said, "Old Ni, there are two young men looking for you, stop playing, I'll come, I'll come." ”

At this time, Lao Ni raised his head and squinted at Qianqiu and Yang Xian, who were standing, and got up a little reluctantly: "That's okay, Lao Xu, you play a few hands for me first, and I'll come back to pick you up later." ”

"Okay. The neighbors then took over and sat down, and the crowd cheered. Lao Ni turned around and scolded with a smile: "You are waiting for me, wait for me to come back, and continue to kill you without leaving a piece of armor." ”

Lao Ni walked up to the two of them and asked, "Who are you, what are you looking for me?" I'm very busy, if you have something to say, let go of a fart quickly. ”

The two were stunned by this barrage of questions.

Or Yang Xian reacted first: "May I ask if you are Boss Ni Zhujun Ni?"

"It's me, just call me Lao Ni, what's wrong?" Lao Ni turned around from time to time to direct a few people who were playing cards, "Eh, how do you play eight of a kind, put seven cylinders to him!

There was another rush of the crowd.

Qianqiu took a step forward and said in a low voice, "It was Senior Li Yu who asked us to come to look for you." ”

When Lao Ni heard this, he was a little more serious, looked at the two of them a few more times, and turned back to the house: "Come in with me." ”

The two followed Lao Ni into the shop, and when they took a look, the counter in front of the shop was full of all kinds of tea, and there were a few seats on the side, but there were several layers of dust on the upper area, and it could be seen that these seats were usually not very sitting, and the boss didn't like to clean.

After turning into a few roads, the two followed Lao Ni into a hut.

Although the room was quite small, there were a lot of things, and there were several large tables, each of which had many small cloth bags of different colors.

Lao Ni found a chair, sat down, crossed Erlang's legs and said to the two, "What did Senior Li Yu call you to do?"

Qianqiu answered: "Boss Ni, we want to find a monster." ”

"Understood, there are no demon hunting spirit beasts, right?" Lao Ni waved his hand to signal that Qianqiu didn't need to say anything more.

Chiaki nodded.

Lao Ni stood up, walked behind a table, searched for a long time, took a small black cloth bag, walked over and handed it to Qianqiu.

"What is this?" asked Chiaki, confused.

"Just open it and see. ”

Chiaki opened the small cloth bag, revealing a contract inside.

"Boss Ni, what is this?" asked Qianqiu again.

Old Ni smiled: "This is a contract talisman of a first-level spirit beast. Of course, this spirit beast is not given in vain, and it has to be exchanged for things. ”

Yang Xian asked suspiciously: "Boss Ni, doesn't the spirit beast have to manifest itself? Also, if you want to contract a spirit beast, you must contract it on the spot." How could a spirit beast be parasitic within the contract talisman?"

Old Ni looked at Yang Xian and said with a smile: "You kid is stupid to read." Who told you that spirit beasts must manifest themselves? Your companion also has at least a second-level spirit beast blade horse, and you, a young man, don't have any hair on the spirit beast, how can you have such doubts?"

Qianqiu was surprised: "I didn't bring the knife out, how did he know, could it be that he is a master again?"

Lao Ni looked at these two boys in confusion and said, "Don't look at it, I'm not engaged in cultivation, I'm just an ordinary person." I'm just more familiar with the taste of spirit animals. ”

He thought for a moment and continued: "The kind of thing you are talking about that must be contracted on the spot is a battle spirit beast, and there are many other types of spirit beasts, and there are many other types of spirit beasts, and there are many functions. Functional spirit beasts do not have combat ability and do not have any aggressiveness, so they can be subdued first, and then sign a contract, using the lowest contract symbols, and they can be supplied without cultivation, and in layman's terms, they do not occupy space, but they also have to look at fate to contract. ”

Yang Xian and Qianqiu nodded, it turned out that this was the case.

"Then Boss Ni, what kind of spirit beast is this?" Qianqiu continued to ask.

"First-class earth sniffing rats. ”

"Sniffing rats?" Yang first confirmed in surprise.

Old Ni nodded and began to hum his unknown ditty.

Qianqiu looked at Yang Xian and asked, "Old Yang, the sniffing rat is just a first-level spirit beast, what are you surprised about?"

Yang Xian scratched his palm with a fan and explained, "Brother Qian, you don't know anything. Although the sniffing mouse is only a first-level spirit animal, I heard that it is the most sensitive to demonic energy among all spirit beasts, and can distinguish any monster, and because of this, the sniffing mouse is actually a very precious spirit animal, and it can be said that it is impossible to meet it, but I didn't expect to see it here today in Boss Ni. ”

"You mean it can even surpass a tenth-level spirit beast in terms of demon hunting?" Chiaki confirmed.

"I said you're not as smart as he is. Lao Ni pointed at Qianqiu, "This little brother is still a little knowledgeable, do you think that the tenth-level spirit beast still needs to hunt for demons?"

Lao Ni continued: "I said that this spirit beast can't be taken for nothing, I took out the sniffing mouse for the sake of Li Yu's seniors' face. However, you have to exchange things. ”

"Dare to ask the boss, what do you need in exchange?" asked Chiaki.

"A Penglai man-eating flower!" said Lao Ni.

"Where are we going to get this thing right now? Penglai Island? That's too far away. Qianqiu said in embarrassment.

"You don't need to go get it now, when you go to Penglai Island, remember to bring me one back. Lao Ni was relieved.

Qianqiu thought to herself: "Although I don't know what this man-eating flower is for, but now I want to get a sniffing rat, I can only agree." ”

He swore and said: "Boss Ni, I'm glad you trust us so much, I promise you Qianqiu, I will do it!"

"It's okay, you young people who love to be aggressive will always go to Penglai Island once, just don't forget it when the time comes. Lao Ni seems to be particularly tolerant at this time, and he is no longer like the boss in front of him.

Old Ni just wanted to send off the guests, but Qianqiu suddenly thought of something, turned around and asked, "Boss Ni, can I ask you something? ”

"If you ask about spirit beasts, you know everything and say everything. Lao Ni had a proud look on his face, he was nicknamed the spirit beast know-it-all, and he had never been afraid of this kind of problem.

"I want to put my spirit beast into the contract charm!" Chiaki said.

"I thought it was a big deal, did you enter the contract charm from the door of your head when you contracted your blade horse in the first place?" asked Lao Ni.

"Hmm. ”

"In fact, after you contract the spirit beast, cover your own brain with a contract talisman stained with its aura, and it will communicate with your mind, and then the spirit beast will naturally hide in the contract talisman and be stationed in your cultivation pool. In fact, the reason why the contract symbol is called the contract symbol is that it is called a contract for one person, and you have a contract with the blade horse, but your blade horse does not have a contract with you in the strict sense!"

When Qianqiu and Yang Xian heard this, they suddenly realized that this was the case.

Chiaki finally knows why she sometimes can't call Knife, and it turns out that the contract is only half completed.

"Boss Ni, do you have any contract charms here? Can you sell us a few. Qianqiu raised an eyebrow at Lao Ni.

Lao Ni looked at Qianqiu and said with a smile: "One or two gold, no counteroffer." ”

Yang Xian and Qianqiu are not short of money now, so they hurriedly paid and acquired some contract charms.

"Boss, why are they all gray low-level contract charms?" Yang Xian asked.

"Do you think I, a person who has not cultivated, will have blue, red, and gold mid-to-high-level contract talismans?" Lao Ni asked rhetorically, feeling that the two boys in front of him knew very few things, "The contract talisman needs to be refined by yourself, and the gray contract talisman is common, but the high-level contract talisman depends on your own refining and creation." ”

"Thank you, Boss Ni. The two were very happy and hurriedly thanked them.

Sending the two out of the door, Qianqiu deliberately stuffed a big ingot to Lao Ni: "Boss Ni, the tea is very delicious, we will definitely try it more in the future." ”

"Welcome back. Lao Ni took a bite of the gold ingots and waved his hand at the two.

The two said goodbye to Boss Ni and went back to the inn.

Qianqiu was actually a little worried in her heart, worried that Bei Ling's injury would recur, so she was a little anxious, who knew that when she entered the inn door, she bumped into someone she knew.
