Chapter 212: Decision
"What the hell is going on? Elder Qin, can you tell us a little bit more clearly?"
Xu Ye was feeling more and more confused now.
"Forget it, it's better not to talk about this kind of thing, so as not to be ........... I don't care about this kind of thing, you can do whatever you like, but here I remind you, don't enter the top of the holy mountain, and the piece of jade pendant around your neck is better to put it away quickly, don't let them see it, otherwise it will definitely cause great trouble, so be it, take care. β
After speaking, Qin Lao didn't give Xu Ye a chance to react, he turned around and left directly, and soon disappeared from Xu Ye and Xu Yingying's field of vision, no matter how Xu Ye called, Qin Lao didn't want to stop, such a scene also made Xu Ye feel very helpless, but the curiosity and firmness in his heart became stronger and stronger.
After the conversation with Qin Lao just now, he probably understood the situation on the top of this holy mountain.
No wonder the rich young master before turned pale when he saw the jade pendant worn by Xu Yingying, it turned out that everything was because this was the identity representative of the Holy Dragon clan, although it was the jade pendant of the previous generation, but the aura exuded from this jade pendant was enough to make these rich young masters feel frightened.
"Brother, what do we want me to do next? We can't just back down. β
"Of course we won't back down, it's impossible for me to retreat from such a small setback, let's go, let's go and get some information first, and see when the selection competition for the top of the Holy Dragon will start. β
Saying that, Xu Ye took Xu Yingying and left here, but they didn't know that Qin Lao, who had already left just now, had not actually left, and had been standing not far away watching the behavior of the two of them, and Qin Lao had also listened to the conversation they had just had.
Qin Lao sighed a little helplessly: "Alas, I knew that they would be like this, this may have been expected, what am I worried about? Forget it, let's take a look at the situation first, if it doesn't work, it's a big deal, I'll fight my life to protect them, I really don't believe that guy will not sell me a face." β
...............
Xu Ye and Xu Yingying soon returned to the city again, but the two of them didn't know anything about everything in the city, except for the map in their hands, they didn't know anything else and the distribution of forces, which was not a good thing for Xu Ye, after all, he had always understood a truth, knowing himself and knowing that he would win all battles.
Therefore, Xu Ye is ready to find a place to inquire about the information.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in front.
The noise also completely attracted Xu Ye's attention, and he had always been interested in these lively things, especially in this strange city.
Generally speaking, in this kind of mixed place, a noisy place is the easiest place to get information, and Xu Ye also walked over to the crowd with Xu Yingying.
I saw that the street was already surrounded by pedestrians at this time, and some people around were constantly coaxing.
"Kill him! Dare to eat the overlord's meal, it's really impatient. β
"Someone like this should teach him a good lesson, break his legs, and let him know the consequences of eating a bully's meal. β
.............
Hearing the words in everyone's mouths, Xu Ye probably understood what was going on, presumably someone must have wanted to eat the overlord meal, and then was caught by others, so this scene appeared.
A teenager in his 14s appeared in the crowd, the teenager was dressed in linen, and there were patches, and at a glance he knew that he was definitely not a person with a background, and another middle-aged man standing in front of him was wearing a gorgeous silk satin, and the current occasion happened to appear in front of an inn.
It's just that the young man's state doesn't seem to be very good, his whole body is dirty, his face is red and blue, and he has obviously learned a certain lesson, and the gorgeously dressed middle-aged man standing in front of him doesn't seem to be so easy to mess with, his strength is actually in the Heavenly Soul Realm, but the young man's strength also makes Xu Ye feel a little surprised, after all, he is only 14 years old, and his strength has already reached the Earth Soul Realm.
It's hard to imagine that a 14-year-old boy can have such strength, which is enough to be called a genius.
"I already told you just now, I don't want to eat the overlord meal, I will stay in your store to work after this meal, until the selection of the top of the holy dragon begins, and then my work will end, isn't that good?"
Even if he received a certain lesson and was surrounded by everyone in the center, the young man did not have the slightest fear.
The middle-aged man smiled coldly: "Boy, I'm afraid your wishful thinking is wrong, do you know how expensive the food in my store is, besides, now there is only less than half a month before the selection competition of the Holy Dragon Peak, do you think that giving me half a month's work can offset the food on this table? Let me tell you, if you don't hand over a medium-grade spirit stone today, you don't want to leave." β
"Are you kidding me, just now I simply asked for a plate of dishes, and then asked for a bowl of rice, and you actually said that you wanted a piece of medium-grade spirit stone, and your store is too dark, right?"
When the young man heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and a trace of ruffian appeared on his face with a blue nose and swollen face.
"It's not a question of whether it's black or not, the price of this meal was originally set by me, anyway, you have already eaten everything in your stomach, I have always had a rule in this store, if you pay in a proper manner, I will never have any holiday with you, and even treat you as a guest, but now you dare to eat overlord meals in my store, of course I can set the price at will, now I can give you two options, one is to discount your legs, this time the matter is just that, and the other is to stay in my store and work for a yearγ β
The middle-aged man didn't seem to be so easy to get along with, and actually started to open his mouth, this scene also made the young man's brows furrow tightly, and a trace of unhappiness appeared on his face full of ruffians: "You obviously want to make things difficult for me, just such a meal just now, half a month's work is already cheap for you, and you still want me to work here for a year? This is impossible, after all, the selection competition is about to start, and I will go to participate in the selection at that time." β
The young man's face couldn't help but show a hint of anticipation, for a poor teenager like them, the selection of the top of the Holy Dragon was their only choice, if they accidentally entered the top of the holy dragon, they might be able to get out of the poverty situation.
"Come on, just like you, you still want to participate in the selection competition of the top of the holy dragon, I think you eat too much kohlrabi, don't tell me so much nonsense, now there are two choices, which one do you choose?"
The boss seemed to be very impatient, and when he threw out such a sentence, the aura on his body had already surged out violently, and five or six strong men also appeared behind him, if this young man dared to say a word, there would be a stormy attack next, and this young man was silent at this time.
But soon a look of determination appeared on the young man's face: "I can't take out this medium-grade spirit stone now, can I owe it first?"
The boy still didn't seem willing to give up, after all, he didn't want to miss out on such a tryout competition as the Top of the Holy Dragon.
"It's so funny, I've been running an inn for so long, and I've never had a credit account, besides, a little beggar like you, why should I give you a credit, and when the time comes, you pat your ass and leave, who will I ask for a debt? Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, look at your thin appearance, you shouldn't be able to do any work, I don't want to talk to you more today, just break your legs, brother, give me a hand." β
Saying that, the middle-aged boss had already waved at the men behind him, and the strength of these men under him was also not weak, if he was against this young man, he would definitely be able to press and beat this young man, and breaking his legs would not be a problem at all.
Just as the two sides were about to make a move, a voice suddenly sounded: "Wait, I paid for him with this medium-grade spirit stone." β
The sudden sound made the people present slightly stunned, and Xu Ye also walked out of the crowd, and he didn't know when a medium-grade spirit stone had appeared in his hand.
"This boss, he is still so young, or the matter will be settled, I will help him pay for the meal. β
Saying that, Xu Ye came to the middle-aged boss, and then handed over the middle-grade spirit stone in his hand to the middle-aged boss, feeling the breath and weight in his hand, the boss suddenly showed a smile on his face, for a businessman like him, interests are the most important, just now he opened his mouth and said that the middle-grade spirit stone was just talking, and he was not ready to collect so much, after all, a little beggar like a young man, it is already very good to take out a low-grade spirit stone.
And now someone actually came out to pay the money for the little beggar, the middle-aged boss naturally didn't care, and a hint of hypocrisy appeared on his face: "Since this young master is willing to pay for him, I naturally won't trouble him, okay, that's all for today, but little beggar, you must also remember for me, don't do this kind of thing next time, if it is planted in my hands, I will definitely let you not be able to eat and walk around." β
Seeing that there was nothing lively to see at the scene, the people present also sighed, and then turned around and left, in fact, they didn't feel any strange about this kind of thing, after all, there are all kinds of people in this holy mountain city, and I don't know how many things have happened before.
"Brother Wolf, thank you!"
Seeing that the matter was resolved, the young man exhaled heavily, and then looked at Xu Ye with a hippie smile and spoke.
Brother Wolf??
Xu Ye was obviously slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't use the words of thanks, I just helped you just now just to ask you something, you only need to answer a few simple questions from me, and we will have nothing to do with what happened just now." β
In fact, Xu Ye didn't help this young man simply because he pitied him, but he wanted to know about the selection at the top of the holy mountain, this young man obviously knew everything about it, and Xu Ye was ready to learn the time and place of the selection competition at the top of the holy dragon from this young man's mouth.
"Well, I knew there was no such thing as a free lunch, okay, just say hello if you want to know. β
The boy exhaled slightly.
"This is not the place to talk. β
Saying that, Xu Ye walked to a place next to no one, after all, this holy mountain city is very large, and there are always some alleys on the streets, and there are no people.
