244|Fu Lu Shou
It was the New Moon again, and the terrain outside the inn began to change again.
Su Xi hung a large number of lanterns under the eaves, and with the bright light, countless ethereal black shadows came out of the deformed phantom.
As soon as they stepped onto the ground as far as the light reached, the hazy afterimage gradually dissipated behind them, and their ethereal and illusory bodies materialized.
"It's been a hundred years, and the inn has finally reappeared."
With a sigh of joy, they lifted the veil over their faces, revealing their wrinkled old countenances.
Su Xi bowed her head slightly in surprise and opened the low-hanging felt curtain for them. When they had entered the inn one by one, she took down the lanterns from the eaves one by one, and closed the door.
Because of the unusual twilight appearance of the guests, the guys were a little hesitant for a while, should they serve them drinks or just some tea?
However, the guests did not give them time to choose. As soon as they sat down, they knocked on the table and said, "Little Er, serve the wine." β
When the guys brought the wine, they looked them up and down with scrutinizing eyes, and then said habitually, "Look at your faces, I'm afraid you're a new guy, right?" β
Asked this side here, and muttered to each other over the other side: "The guys have been too diligent in the past few hundred years, and I don't know if the shopkeeper is still there-"
"Of course I'm here." Hu Ji, who heard the movement, suddenly appeared in front of them.
The guests were amazed.
They were already old-looking, but when they widened their cloudy light-colored eyes and looked at Hu Ji with questioning eyes, Hu Ji, who had always loved beauty, couldn't help but show a look of disgust.
"You're so old and dizzy, you can't even recognize me." Hu Ji was disgusted in his heart, and his words followed unceremoniously, "What does it have to do with you whether the guys in our inn change or not?" If you pick and choose like this, go to another house! β
With that, he waved his hand at the guys, signaling that they didn't have to entertain the guests who were stuck in the door.
The guys were a little overwhelmed to look back and forth between the guests and Hu Ji, they were hired to entertain guests, if they didn't work, wouldn't it be a violation of their duties? But Hu Ji is the shopkeeper, and he can't ignore his words.
was struggling, and I heard those guests say with displeasure: "Hu Ji, you don't want to be unreasonable, you also said that we are old and dizzy, so it is normal that we can't tell for a while that you have changed." Where in this world is there a place comparable to the Santuchuan Inn? Where can you tell us old men to cultivate? Bring us the drinks we want, and if you make things so difficult for us, we will have to go and ask the owner of this inn for an explanation. β
Hu Ji was furious when he heard this, and his eyebrows and eyes changed for a while, showing a bit of fox characteristics.
"Alas, alas, in the end, I am young, so unbearable." Seeing this, the guests sighed and said, "We are really worried about the inn, how long can this inn last according to the way you treat guests?" β
Hu Ji showed his tail more and more angrily, and for a while, the demon wind hunted, and he actually had the posture to fight.
I didn't think that the guests were not afraid, but patted the table and asked with relief: "But we heard that the new guy in the inn is Taiyin?" What's the name? Tsing Yi is it? β
"Old thing!" Hu Ji suddenly realized, and he didn't do anything, he only sneered and retracted his claws and fox tail and said, "I'll just say why you want to pinch the hour to come to the inn, it was the idea of beating Tsing Yi." β
"Alas, alas, you have the heart of a villain to live the belly of a gentleman again." The guests shook their heads and sighed, "That's why we said you don't deserve the important position of shopkeeperβ"
Before they could finish their sentences, a swift wind struck at their faΓ§ade.
After a loud whip, the face of the guest who spoke was torn in half.
The guys were so frightened that their hearts and livers jumped, they subconsciously went to look at Hu Ji, and sure enough, they saw Hu Ji touching the handle of the long whip with a relieved face.
"Hu-Hu Ji-" The guys have just changed their borders, and on the first day, they made such a fuss about abusing and killing guests, "Isn't this a good ......?"
"What's the panic?" Hu Ji rolled his eyes and smiled, the guys were difficult to resist, and immediately showed a look of intoxication.
"It's nothing...... they shook their heads and waved their hands, and they stepped forward and grabbed the hapless guest's arm to drag him out, "It's all this guest who is making trouble, and we're going to throw him outβ"
Before they could take two steps, the guest suddenly moved on their own, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly let go.
"Alas, alas, your temper is still so unpleasant." The customer, whose face was split, complained as he got up from the ground. Under the frightened gaze of the guys, his face healed spontaneously and automatically.
Now that Hu Ji understood their purpose, he no longer made a false accusation with them, but only threw his long whip in the air, and then went back to the counter.
The guest didn't get a response, so he turned to the guys dissatisfiedly and said, "Xiao Er, you have also seen it, we can't afford this kind of hospitality." So can you go and invite the kind-hearted and calm Tsing Yi to entertain us? β
The guys looked at each other a few times with bitter faces, and then they muttered, "Guest officer, this ...... I'm afraid it's not very convenient. Our little lady in Tsing Yi is just a mortal. The inn has a rule, and mortals have to go back to their rooms to sleep when they are over. Now you see, it's already a moment, and she's probably already asleep. Otherwise, let's do a few of us-"
"Alas, alas, the rules of the inn......" The guests listened to the men's prevarication, and could only shake their heads in disappointment, "Then there is no way, since this is the case, then arrange a room for us, and we will go to rest first." β
The men were overjoyed to hear this, and when they stretched out their hands to show them the way, they heard them add, "Remember to choose a room near her!" β
The guys' arms stiffened, shook a few times, but still pointed upstairs and said, "Naturally...... Nature...... He also invited the guests to go to the No. 7 room to rest. β
The guests didn't feel that the room was stumbling, but they thought it was the closest place to Tsing Yi, and they went happily.
After the guys watched them enter the inferior room in the far corner, they hurried to the Tianzi area.
Tsing Yi, who was half-asleep and half-awake, heard someone knocking on the door outside, so he struggled to get up and opened the door.
"What's going on downstairs?" She asked, as if with a hunch, "I just heard a noise." β
"This, Tsing Yi ......" The guys saw that Tsing Yi's eyebrows were full of tiredness, so they knew that she hadn't slept well, and then thought that she had just given birth the day before yesterday, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "A group of strange guests came tonight, as if they were coming for you, and they asked to stay near you, and we felt that they were not good, so we deliberately picked the room farthest away from you." When the adults come, tell him about it. β
As soon as Hei Saburo was mentioned, Tsing Yi unconsciously showed a strange look. She was very thirsty and slept in the past two days, and woke up several times from sleep, but she didn't see Kurosaburo much, and she didn't know where he took the egg.
After being so distracted, she thanked in a low voice: "I know, thank you for reminding me." β
"Where ......" The guys touched their faces embarrassedly, and then urged, "You go to sleep quickly, let's go talk to Dongqiao again!" β
Then they hurried away again.
After Tsing Yi closed the door, he lay back in the bed.
A person's bed was a little empty, and her stomach was no longer accustomed to the faint movement that she had become accustomed to, and she was not used to it for a while, so she tossed and turned on the bed again, and after a few breaths, she fell into a deep sleep.
