Chapter 23: Are You a Showman?

Chao Xiaonan didn't look back, and he sensed that the words were a man who looked like a gray-clothed scholar at a wine table, and said that there were three other people sitting next to him, and they should also be literati.

On the men's table were a few pieces of food and two jugs of sake. The other three people at the wine table were also dressed as scholars, and they were looking at them with interest, waiting for Chao Xiaonan's response.

However, what swept them away was that Chao Xiaonan didn't seem to hear it, and still pulled Mengqing Wu and walked slowly upstairs.

"This is my martial artist in his late years, shouting all day long to defend his family and country, and make meritorious contributions, but he is such a rat who doesn't even dare to reply!" the man in gray raised his voice.

The man's voice was so loud that everyone on the first floor of the inn could hear it. There were two tables of people with angry faces, looking at them dressed as people walking in the rivers and lakes, but although the people at these two tables were angry, they did not refute it, but did not look over and pretend that they did not hear.

Even if they stepped forward and made a move, judging from the current level of the empire's emphasis on literature and light on military force, it was only them who would suffer in the end.

Seeing that some of the martial artists around him dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, the scholars at this table became even more presumptuous, and began to belittle the martial arts students one by one.

"That's right! My Da Ten Empire has stood for a thousand years, just because these wilderness and reckless men are fighting and killing all day long, the situation of the empire is gradually declining, and the people are not able to make a living, and the martial arts are the cancer of my Da Yuan!"

"Takefu only knows how to compete all day long, and he simply defeats my image. ”

......

But they didn't pay attention to what they meant, and they had already walked upstairs, and the four men felt that they were being despised by others, and they were like clowns jumping off the beam in comparison, and all four of them looked indignant.

The gray-clothed man who spoke first shook his head, "This woman is too, I thought she was a woman from a good family with a simple appearance, but how could she ever want to commit adultery with such a reckless man here, it's just ......"

The man in gray hurriedly closed his mouth before he finished speaking, and the man on his forehead was like rain, because a young man appeared in front of him, and a deadwood-colored giant sword no less than six feet long.

"You...... What are you doing, you actually use force against a showman in public, it's simply insulting!" The gray-clothed scholar who was held by the big sword on his neck said righteously.

In fact, his whole body was trembling, and Xiao Nan's deep eyes made his back cold, but for the sake of his own bones, he still tried his best to appear righteous and awe-inspiring.

He immediately revealed his identity as a showman, in order to remind Chao Xiaonan of what the crime of killing a showman in public was.

"Oh, you're a showman! I'm sorry, but I don't know Tarzan. Chao Xiaonan hurriedly withdrew the big sword around the man's neck, looking a little scared.

The people at the wine table around saw Chao Xiaonan's appearance, and they all showed disdain, thinking that this handsome young man with a sword on his back would be a chivalrous and courageous man of the rivers and lakes, but he never thought that he would be so inflammatory, and the name of a showman was frightened.

Seeing Chao Xiaonan's behavior, the gray-clothed scholar was a little stunned at first. But then his face was full of arrogance, and he thought that this giant sword boy would be such a ruthless person, but he was just a paper tiger.

"Yes, I'm Xiucai!" The gray-clothed scholar took out the folding fan on his waist and fanned it very elegantly, which was indeed a bit elegant.

Some of the people in the surrounding rivers and lakes lowered their heads, they really couldn't imagine that the current Jianghu children had been aggrieved to this point, but they didn't think about why they didn't want to be this budding bird.

"Smack!"

Suddenly, a loud voice sounded, and the people at the surrounding wine tables raised their heads, only to see a red handprint on the left side of the gray-clothed scholar's face.

Chao Xiaonan stepped on the table and looked at the scholar opposite who showed a look of disbelief.

Xiao Nan smiled slightly, revealing two shallow dimples. "I'm sorry, I'm playing Xiucai. ”

The people around looked shocked, looking at the smiling teenager and the beaten scholar, and they all felt relieved, but more people had an attitude of not caring about themselves, and watched the excitement with bad intentions.

Chao Xiaonan's strength was not great, but the gray-clothed scholar was stunned, he still couldn't believe that someone would humiliate himself with the identity of Xiucai so much, and he even felt that the smiling young man opposite didn't hear his words clearly.

"You...... You, I'm Xiucai! I'm Xiucai......" The gray-clothed scholar kept repeating.

The three scholars at the same table also looked angry, but no one said anything to stop them, just looked at Chao Xiaonan with an angry face.

"Smack!"

With another sound, there was also a slap mark on the right side of the gray-clothed scholar's face, and the scholar's originally tied hair was also scattered and fell to his face.

"I already know, you're a showman. Chao Xiaonan, who stepped on the table, looked at the scholar condescendingly.

Some of the people in the rivers and lakes around the wine table were all happy, and the literati did have a lofty status in the early days, so many people who claimed to be literati felt superior to others. Everything is inferior, but reading high is what it says.

The gray-clothed scholar could feel the burning pain on his face, blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, and his brain was already a little out of working after being beaten.

Although he is not as good as those scholars, he is not superior to ordinary people? Not to mention that he is a martial artist! How could he have been treated like this? He just wants to escape from here at the moment, he has already lost face here, and he can imagine how he is down at this time, which is even more uncomfortable than letting him die.

"Why are you running? I ask you, are you a showman?"

Chao Xiaonan grabbed the gray-clothed scholar who was about to escape from under the table, looked at the scholar who looked like a dead dog and asked.

"I ...... Yes, you can't do this to me, Da Xun Guo Chongwen defeated the martial arts, you will be arrested, you will be arrested...... How many people can you beat alone......"

The gray-clothed scholar's mind gradually became clear, and he tried his best to help Chao Xiaonan analyze the pros and cons. The gray-clothed scholar's tone was pleading, he hoped that the young man in front of him would let himself go, so that he could disappear from the sight of so many people.

"Smack!" the gray-clothed scholar received another slap and fainted to the ground.

Chao Xiaonan was very measured and didn't make a ruthless move, he just looked embarrassed, but this was the biggest torture for the gray-clothed scholar, so the gray-clothed scholar who was slapped again chose to pretend to be stunned.

Chao Xiaonan didn't pursue the person who was pretending to be asleep on the ground, and looked back at the other person at the wine table, smiling.

"Are you a showman?"

"No, no, no......," the scholar replied in fear.

"What about you?" asked Xiao Nan, looking at the other person.

"I, I'm not, he's the ...... alone"

"That's right, it's him...... He's alone!"

The three of them immediately cleaned up their relationship, they didn't have seen a really hot-blooded Jianghu Erlang, but they had never seen such a personless person in the rivers and lakes, and they fought for no reason when they came up.

Ordinary martial arts students are afraid of their literati status, and real masters disdain to deal with them, which also causes many indiscriminate literati to be arrogant.

It's just a pity that what they met today was Chao Xiaonan, if these scholars just humiliated him, Chao Xiaonan might laugh at it, you can't go back if the dog bites you! But the gray-clothed scholar shouldn't have touched Chao Xiaonan's reverse scales, that is, the girl Mengqing Wu behind him.

"Oh, it turns out that you are not a showman, then you should go quickly, and in the future, you will have less dealings with this kind of goods on the ground, do you hear?" Chao Xiaonan's tone was like a teacher who was very good at seducing.

"Yes, yes, thank you for your advice, and we're leaving. ”

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly responded, and then fled the scene in a flying manner.

There was also a lot of movement in the inn, which attracted many onlookers and whispers.

"Who is this young man with a sword......?

"Yes, these indiscriminate literati should be taught like this!"

"Judging by his age, his cultivation must not be deep, so he humiliated a Xiucai like this, has he thought about the consequences?"

"Yes, it seems that I am still too young and impetuous......"

"I don't think so, you look at the giant sword behind this young man, it's simple at a rough glance but subtle when you look closely, it's not necessarily a person to provoke......"

......

Chao Xiaonan ignored the opinions around him, and he kicked the gray-clothed scholar who was lying motionless on the ground.

"Hey, don't pretend, your companions are all gone on their own, do you need my help?"
