Chapter 223: Black-hearted Little Er
Lin Dong chose a place by the door and sat down, asked Xiao Er for two dishes, asked for a pot of wine, and sat there while eating and waiting. When he finished eating the plate of wine and the two dishes, the Xuantian Divine Sword finally came back after drinking.
"There really isn't an inn around here, I just went around the whole town, and I didn't find a single inn." Xuantian was a little helpless.
Lin Dong heard his words and called a shopkeeper over and asked, "Why doesn't your Xuanwu City have an inn?" ”
The shopkeeper said helplessly, "Our place is so remote, where will anyone come to our place to enjoy the scenery, opening a tavern is not able to make a living, if you open an inn, won't you lose so much that you can't even wear pants." ”
"I don't know if you've heard of Mist City?" Lin Dong changed the topic suddenly.
The shopkeeper nodded, "I've heard that it seems to be a reincarnation of sixty years, and this year is almost about to appear." Are you here for it? ”
Lin Dong glanced at Xuantian, and didn't immediately answer what he was about to say, but he heard the shopkeeper say, "If you come to find him, I will advise the two of you to go back quickly, that place only hears its voice, no one has really seen it at all, and no one has really encountered it, what will appear in the first day of October, if it appears, it will exist for a month, these are all deceptive nonsense." I've been here for thirty years, and I've seen a lot of yellow sand in the sky, and I've heard a lot of legends about Mist City, but we've never seen the real thing. ”
"Didn't you say that sixty years is a reincarnation, how can you see him when you're only in your thirties?" Lin Dong said with a smile.
The shopkeeper's face suddenly fell, and he said seriously, "Although I am young, my parents and grandparents are always not young, right?" But my grandfather said that he had never seen Mist City either, and according to legend, someone had found that place, and that place had appeared when the wind and sand were particularly strong, and that person was swept into it by a gust of wind, and then it never appeared again, and some people said that it was a ghost town and there was no way to get out, and once it came out, it might have been sixty years later, and besides, no one had ever come out of that place at all, so the big guys didn't look for it anymore. ”
"Since this legend exists, there should be a lot of people coming here for sightseeing at this time of year, and you should build an inn. Even if you can't find that place, the scenery here is good, and you can develop tourism. ”
Xuantian glanced at him with disdain, "Water Mist City appears once in sixty years, and usually those people can only come here for sightseeing even at this time. ”
The shopkeeper shook his head helplessly, "In our place, there is nothing else but the yellow sand in the sky, how can there be any good scenery." By the way, what kind of city you are talking about, you can't find it in our Xuanwu City, the big guys all say that it is in the north of Xuanwu City, go out from the north city gate, and look all the way to the north, if you can find it, he should appear in that place. Sixty years ago, my grandfather had followed some people in the city to the desert north of the city, but he only experienced a storm of yellow sand, and his eyes were almost damaged by the wind and sand at that time, and in the end he did not find any city. So I advise you two not to waste their work. ”
"We appreciate your kindness, but we do have some things to do here, and we have to stay for a few days, and now we can't find the inn, I don't know if we can stay here for a few days?" Lin Dong opened his mouth and said, "We don't live in vain. As he spoke, he took out the package he was carrying, took out a hundred gold coins from it, and put them on the table, "We will live for half a month temporarily, do you think this little money is enough?" ”
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw the gold coins Lin Dong put on the table, "Enough, enough." I'll go find you a house, and you can live here with peace of mind. As he spoke, he put away all the gold coins on the table.
Lin Dong watched all the money being taken away, and his heart ached.
"This person is not a good person at first glance, you see that his eyes are particularly fierce. Be careful when you wait a while. Xuantian stared at the back of the little two and said.
Lin Dong drank all the jugs of wine on the table, he felt that his head was a little dizzy, "I never got drunk easily when I drank before, why do I feel a little out of shape today?" "Said the whole person fell headlong on the table.
When the shopkeeper saw Lin Dong fall headlong on the table, he suddenly showed a hideous face, and he slowly approached Lin Dong with a slender rope in his hand.
It is necessary to say here that the Xuantian Sword Spirit is unable to see him except for Lin Dong and those with high cultivation. This shopkeeper had never cultivated the immortal law, but he was just an ordinary mortal. , so he couldn't see the Xuantian Sword Spirit, and he didn't know how Lin Dong and the two of them cultivated, but he felt that Lin Dong was dressed luxuriously, so he thought that this person should be a rich man from other places, and wanted to cheat a game, so he put sweat medicine in the wine.
Just now I saw him generous, and I suddenly became ill-intentioned. He took the slender rope and walked left behind Lin Dong, trying to strangle him. But I didn't expect that after I had just walked two steps, I fell out of thin air, fell to the ground like a dog chewing, and two front teeth suddenly fell off, and my crying father screamed at my mother.
Xuantian walked behind him and stepped on his back, "I just see that you guy is not a good person, I didn't expect your fox tail to be revealed so quickly." ”
Although the shopkeeper couldn't see the Xuantian Sword Spirit, he could hear his voice, and at this moment, he also felt the foot he stepped on on his back and the gravity on the foot, and his heart suddenly panicked, "Ghost! ”
"I'm not a ghost, I'm a god you look up three feet up. Hurry up and hand over the antidote to the sweat medicine, and I will spare you if you entertain this son for a few days, otherwise you will die a terrible death! ”
"The little one obeys the order, the little one knows that he is wrong, the little one must take good care of this son, and ask the gods to be kind and let the villain go." The shopkeeper begged in a panic.
Only then did the Xuantian Sword Spirit retract his foot, "I'll trust you for the time being." Now you have someone to carry this boy into his room, and then feed him the antidote, and prepare a large bucket of hot water for this boy to bathe. Remember to do everything seriously, I'm watching you. ”
"Hey, the villain knows, the villain will do it, and he will definitely take good care of this son." The shopkeeper nodded and went to find someone.
