Chapter 50: Changing Rooms
When Yuan Tong and Jia Xing returned to the Tianyuan Inn, it was already a little late, Jia Xing walked in front with an ugly face, and Yuan Tong followed closely behind Jia Xing with a wry smile, constantly explaining something in a low voice.
In fact, after leaving the Tianyuan Inn, Jiaxing returned to Zhang Yuan's side earlier, and after simply buying some things, he immediately rushed back, but Yuantong wanted to let Jiaxing stay outside for a longer time, so he deliberately created some incidents, so that the two were involved, and after Jiaxing finally settled the matter, two hours had passed, so Jiaxing's face would inevitably have some annoyance, if it wasn't for his special task, I was afraid that he would have parted ways with Yuantong.
After dealing with the emergency, no matter how much Yuan Tong persuaded him, Jia Xing refused to continue to stay outside, directly ignored Yuan Tong's pull, and rushed towards the Tianyuan Inn, and Yuan informed that so much time had passed, presumably Zhang Yuan had more arrangements and should have ended, so he did not continue to stay in Jia Xing, but kept explaining that he followed Jia Xing back to the Tianyuan Inn.
When the two returned to the residence on the third floor, they suddenly found that the two of them could not enter the room, this accident surprised the two, not only Jia Xing, but even Yuan Tong felt that Zhang Yuan was a little unkind, although Jia Xing did have an ulterior secret here, but he directly took Jia Xing out of the room in order to create conditions for Zhang Yuan, but he didn't expect to eat directly after coming back, so Yuan Tong's heart also had a trace of dislike.
asked the waiter in the aisle, and the two got an even more surprising answer, the room where Zhang Yuan lived before was not restricting the entry of the two, but Zhang Yuan checked out directly, this news was like a thunderbolt on Jiaxing's head, he was assigned by Wen Bodhisattva to complete this secret mission, but he didn't expect that the mission had not yet started, and the mission target actually left first.
At this moment, Jia Xing was even more annoyed by Yuan Tong's previous behavior, if Zhang Yuan really left the city secretly, the consequences must be borne by Yuan Tong, what to say to take himself to buy what daily necessities, this is simply deliberately creating an opportunity for Zhang Yuan and a few people to escape, but when Jia Xing turned his head to look at Yuan Tong, he found that Yuan Tong was also at a loss at this moment, obviously such a situation, Yuan Tong himself was also very surprised.
Although Yuan Tong's expression didn't look like a disguise, Jia Xing wouldn't let Yuan Tong go so simply, so he directly asked Yuan Tong: "Yuan Tong, what benefits did Zhang Yuan give you, that would make you betray Wen Bodhisattva and let Zhang Yuan and his party go without permission?"
In the face of Jia Xing's questioning, of course Yuan Tong couldn't admit it, for Jia Xing's task, Yuan Tong was also able to guess a few points, but when Jia Xing came, what he told on the surface was not the task of monitoring Zhang Yuan, but simply following his side to see the world, if Zhang Yuan and a few people really left at this moment, Yuan Tong could only use this to ensure his safety.
"Jiaxing, what do you mean, Wen Bodhisattva wants you to follow me, what do you do with Zhang Yuan, just do your own thing, you should worry less about the rest. β
Being topped by Yuan Tong like this, Jia Xing found that he really had nothing to say, indeed, in front of Yuan Tong, he did not have anything to do with Zhang Yuan, and all his actions should be related to Yuan Tong, but who should he go to complain to at the moment for his secret task, I am afraid that I will report today's matter to Wen Bodhisattva, and Wen Bodhisattva will only blame himself for not doing well, after all, Yuan Tong does not know his task, so Yuan Tong will not be punished in any way.
Thinking of this, Jia Xing's heart was unbalanced for a while, why the matter was caused by Yuan Tong, but the result was to bear it himself, so, even if he was blamed by Wen Bodhisattva, he must pull Yuan Tong into the water, and the only way to pull Yuan Tong into the water is to let Yuan Tong know his task, so that he can report to Wen Bodhisattva and say that in order to better complete the task assigned by Wen Bodhisattva, he told Yuan Tong his secret mission, because with Yuan Tong's cooperation, he can stay by Zhang Yuan's side more justifiably, but Yuan Tong is on the premise of knowing the task, still forcibly took himself away from Zhang Yuan and his party, causing Zhang Yuan and a few people to quietly check out and leave the Tianyuan Inn during the time they left.
Thinking about it in his heart, the more Jia Xing thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, maybe in this way, the punishment he received would be smaller, and the main responsibility would fall on Yuan Tong's body, thinking of this, Jia Xing said directly to Yuan Tong: "This time I came here, I have a secret mission, Wen Bodhisattva ordered me to monitor Zhang Yuan's every move, but your sudden move made Zhang Yuan and a few people escape from under my nose, this time the responsibility will be all on you, if Wen Bodhisattva asks......"
Speaking of this, Jia Xing couldn't say any more, because at this moment, Jia Xing suddenly saw Zhang Yuan walking out of the corner of the stairs, Jia Xing slightly regretted, how could his task be said at this time, I don't know how much Zhang Yuan heard, if Zhang Yuan heard it completely, I'm afraid that his task will be difficult to complete.
In fact, the first time Zhang Yuan appeared, Yuan Tong found out, but Yuan Tong pretended not to notice Zhang Yuan's appearance, and even when Zhang Yuan walked towards the two, he deliberately moved his body, so that his eyes moved away from Zhang Yuan's direction, and then said to Jia Xing: "If Wen Bodhisattva asks, what about it, you should say it, if you don't say it before, who knows that you came with a secret mission." β
Hearing Yuan Tong's voice getting louder and louder, Jia Xing even had the urge to cut off Yuan Tong's head, in order to prevent Yuan Tong from continuing to say anything, Jia Xing could only stretch out his hand and press it directly on Yuan Tong's mouth.
In fact, when Yuan Tong and Jia Xing came back before, Zhang Yuan had already been notified by the waiter of Tianyuan Inn, so he followed the two to the third floor at the first time, of course, Zhang Yuan did not appear directly, but has been hiding at the corner of the stairs, waiting to observe the reaction of the two, so every word Jia Xing said before was clearly heard, but he was not good for the time being, so he could only act as not hearing, and at the critical moment when Jia Xing said, he suddenly walked out of his hiding place.
"Zhang Yuan, how can you suddenly check out when we leave? Do you treat us as outsiders?" Jia Xing, who was covering Yuan Tong's mouth, suddenly spoke, at this moment, Jia Xing had to speak first, because when he was talking to Yuan Tong just now, he was not sure whether Zhang Yuan was heard, so he spoke first, and then according to Zhang Yuan's answer, he determined whether Zhang Yuan knew his task.
At this moment, Jia Xing can be said to be anxious for Yuan Tong, I don't know why Shi Jiayu wants to arrange such a person to appear by Zhang Yuan's side, although he doesn't expect Yuan Tong to help him complete the task, but he doesn't want Yuan Tong to be okay and always pull his own hind legs, today he first inexplicably pulled himself out to buy what daily necessities, and the conversation after coming back almost let Zhang Yuan hear it, Jia Xing always felt that this Yuan Tong was his nemesis, if he could, Jia Xing really hoped that Wen Bodhisattva could order Yuan Tong to get out of the way.
Listening to Jia Xing's words, Zhang Yuan's face first put a smile on his face, although in Zhang Yuan's heart he was already disgusted with Jia Xing to the extreme, but at this moment Zhang Yuan felt that it was better to leave him first, after all, an enemy who was easier to deal with stayed by his side, and his danger would be much smaller.
"You don't know, after you left, I went to the counter to inquire, it turned out that the three-story room needs the price of a hundred low-grade spirit stones every day, this is simply * naked blackmail, so how can we continue to stay and live in such an expensive room, so I chose to check out, after all, it is very difficult for us to earn spirit stones by ourselves, how can it be so wasteful?
Looking at the innocent expression on Zhang Yuan's face at the moment, Jia Xing was a little puzzled, because he didn't know if Zhang Yuan heard the conversation between himself and Yuan Tong, but since Zhang Yuan didn't mention it, he could only assume that Zhang Yuan didn't hear it, but there was a trace of discomfort in his heart.
In fact, the most uncomfortable thing is not Jiaxing, but the waiter who has been waiting in the corridor to serve the guests, because he has been informed by the shopkeeper, so the waiter knows the reason why Zhang Yuan wants to check out, at this moment after hearing Zhang Yuan say this, his cheeks twitched slightly, and what is even more shameful is that Zhang Yuan actually said in front of himself, a person from the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce, that this inn is blackmailing guests, if it weren't for Zhang Yuan's more noble identity, maybe he would have to drive Zhang Yuan away immediately.
"Okay, as for the housing prices here, I also have some understanding, but now which inn we moved to, it's not early today, let's go back first!" Jia Xing wanted to end such an embarrassing situation quickly, so he had to ask Zhang Yuan where he had moved, although saying this at the moment would make Zhang Yuan feel that he had been following him, but Jia Xing couldn't care so much, and he couldn't go back to Lingshan directly to tell Wen Bodhisattva that he had just been in contact with Zhang Yuan on the first day, and the mission would fail immediately, and the reason for the failure was not because the other party found out his identity, but because Zhang Yuan moved away from his original residence, and he didn't go with him.
"Actually, we didn't move very far, just on the second floor of the Tianyuan Inn, where the house price is much cheaper, a person only needs a hundred spirit coins a day, so I decided to live there, by the way, when I designed the room shape, I specially reserved a room for you, if you also want to come together, you have to hurry up and pay the money, and then come in to live." After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he didn't wait for the two of them to answer, but turned around and left directly.
Zhang Yuan's words made Jiaxing and Yuantong completely dumbfounded, what is to be together, go and pay the money immediately, if I am not mistaken, Shi Jiayu has paid enough for the two of them before leaving, why is it just a trip, and when they come back, they still need to pay the room fee again, the two wanted to ask Zhang Yuan, but at this moment Zhang Yuan had already walked to the staircase, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.
When Zhang Yuan's figure disappeared completely, Jia Xing slowly let go of his hand covering Yuan Tong's mouth, but although it seems that Zhang Yuan has not yet discovered his identity for the time being, but this Zhang Yuan is not a thing, Jia Xing has the urge to scold his mother, but helplessly, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, so they can only obediently walk to the first floor, ready to pay the room fee, and return to Zhang Yuan's side.
On the way to the first floor, Yuan Tong suddenly said: "Senior Brother Jiaxing, or we don't live here, I really don't have so many spirit coins, after all, there are many disciples in our Zen Martial Sect who need spirit stones, so every spirit stone is very precious, and now we have to pay out of our own pockets to live in the Tianyuan Inn, this is simply a robbery!"
Listening to Yuantong's complaints, Jiaxing suddenly felt a sense of pride, different from Zen Wumen, he is the descendant of Wen Bodhisattva, so he has never lacked spirit stones, much happier than a poor light egg like Yuantong, but the pride has not lasted long, Jiaxing is a little depressed, after all, his identity above the surface is to follow Yuantong, if Yuantong does not live, he will have no reason to live, so he wants to return to Zhang Yuan's side, not only to pay the room fee for his residence, but also to pay together with the room fee of Yuantong, of course, in order to complete the task and spend these spirit stones, Jiaxing still does not care, And the only thing I care about is to spend the spirit stone on Yuan Tong's body, since the first time I saw him, Jia Xing felt very disgusted with this person, there is no positive line with a hippie smile all day long, and there will definitely be no good development in the future.
Although he was very reluctant in his heart, but Jia Xing still took Yuan Tong to the counter on the first floor, and paid the room fee to the shopkeeper, before the delivery, Jia Xing also deliberately asked the shopkeeper how long Zhang Yuan and a few people had booked to live in time, but the answer he got made Jia Xing a little depressed, Jia Xing still remembered what Zhang Yuan said to the two before, as a casual cultivator, this spirit stone is very difficult to earn, so he also felt a little unbearable for the room living on the third floor, so he had no choice but to retreat the room on the third floor and live on the second floor instead, but who would have thought that Zhang Yuan directly booked a one-year residence time on the second floorAt first, Jia Xing thought that he had heard it wrong, and after asking the shopkeeper again, he knew that Zhang Yuan had indeed booked a year's time, and Jia Xing was really a little speechless.
A year needs more spirit stones, a person lives for a day is a hundred spirit coins, that is, an intermediate spirit stone, and a person needs more than 360 intermediate spirit stones a year, Zhang Yuan and his party have six people, this is called no spirit stone, who will directly use more than 2,000 intermediate spirit stones to directly book a room, Jia Xing knows that he does not have this courage, let alone more than 2,000 intermediate spirit stones, even if it is more than 300 pieces, he can't afford it, but fortunately, Jia Xing knows that before the refining conference, Zhang Yuan will definitely choose to stay here, and he only needs to stay at that time, after all, it is such a long time, I'm afraid that Wen Bodhisattva can already do a lot of things, so Jia Xing directly took out a hundred intermediate spirit stones and booked a room for the two of them for more than a month.
Seeing the hundred spirit stones given by Jia Xing, the shopkeeper did not take it directly, but returned the spirit stones to Jia Xing and said: "You really decided to book a room on the second floor for more than a month, you must know that the second floor is different from the third floor, the room on the second floor is composed of formations, so once it is determined, we will directly add enough spirit stones to maintain the stability of the room, so we will not check out when booking a room on the second floor." β
Originally, after listening to the shopkeeper's words, Jia Xing was still a little hesitant, after all, if Zhang Yuan left early in the middle, then his spirit stone would not be lost, but before Jia Xing had time to regret it, Yuan Tong said directly: "What do you mean by the shopkeeper, do you think that our senior brother Jia Xing is a person who rebelled, since he directly said that he wanted to book a month's house, you can just do it, where is so much nonsense." β
Yuan Tong's sudden opening made Jia Xing have no chance to regret it, and after thinking about it, since Zhang Yuan had booked a room here for a year, and he only lived for a month, it was impossible to let the spirit stone be lost, after all, it was impossible for Zhang Yuan to let his spirit stone be lost.
After booking the room, Jia Xing and Yuan Tong walked to Zhang Yuan's room under the guidance of the waiter, and when the two really entered, they found that this room was like a labyrinth, the whole ring shape, if you are not familiar with the person, I am afraid that you will not be able to find the door to enter the room for a while.
Since he was not sure which room Zhang Yuan lived in, Jia Xing originally wanted to observe the structure of the room designed by Zhang Yuan first, but before Jia Xing really entered, Thor, Johnson, suddenly appeared.
"Yuantong, why did you come back, I have something to do with you, let's go, let's go to your room to talk." Thor Johnson said.
Hearing the call of Thorgod Johnson, Yuantong's attitude towards Jiaxing suddenly changed, and when Jiaxing just paid the room fee, Ma Shouzhan disappeared, and he was very happy to follow Thor Johnson away, and Jiaxing hated a little itchy teeth, and secretly slandered in his heart, this Yuantong is really a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, and he just invested fifty intermediate spirit stones for him, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Yuantong gave up on himself and left, but Jiaxing was not familiar with this structure after all, so he could only silently follow behind the two of them, and decided to figure out the structure of this place firstγ
