Chapter 118: The Xuanqing Snake
Changbai Mountain is not covered with snow all year round, only at the top of the mountain.
We are located halfway up an unknown mountain in the Changbai Mountains, which is not particularly high, and although the temperature is low, there is not enough snow in this season.
It was already past one o'clock in the morning, and we stood outside the inn and were not in a hurry to get in.
In this kind of place, an inn suddenly appears, can you not grow more eyes?
But I didn't smell anything unusual in it, I think they were all alive.
The furnishings inside are very simple and quaint, the tables and chairs are all wooden, and they look old.
There are a few oil lamps hanging on the walls on all sides, and it's strange that there is no air conditioning, but the room is very warm.
The proprietress was a chubby woman, wearing exaggerated heavy makeup, with a thick foundation on her face and lipstick as if she had just drunk human blood.
Seeing me and Luo Ya come in, she immediately stepped forward to greet with a smile, "The two of you, please!" ”
The fat on her face kept shaking as she laughed, and I was a little worried about whether the thick layer of foundation on her face would fall off.
There were more than a dozen tables of people sitting in the inn, men and women, young and old, dressed in different ways, but they were very quiet, and occasionally someone spoke only in whispers.
I was surprised to find that the ugly man and the woman in the blue cheongsam were also sitting at an inconspicuous table in the corner.
The woman in the blue cheongsam lowered her head and drank a cup of tea quietly, and the ugly man saw us and smiled with a mouthful of yellow teeth.
I quickly turned my eyes away and sat down next to an equally inconspicuous small table with Luo Ya.
I secretly observed the people in the inn, men and women, young and old, or bowed their heads and whispered occasionally, without making noise or making loud noises, as if they were avoiding something.
When my eyes moved to a table on the left, my heart tightened.
At that table sat seven middle-aged men, dressed in blue cloth robes that somewhat resembled ancient clothes, with a wide blue cloth band tied around their waists.
Upper Puritans?
This group of people is dressed exactly like the people I killed in Qingcheng Mountain two days ago.
And I heard An Xiaotian say that this group of people is strong, and it is very difficult to provoke.
The men also looked up at me, and I was startled for a moment, but they continued to lower their heads and drink their tea quietly.
Fortunately, the helmsman who escaped that day was not here, otherwise this matter would have been in trouble today.
I was secretly glad in my heart.
At this time, the chubby boss Nian came over with a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks, and said with a smile, "May I ask which of you will settle the bill." ”
I took out my wallet and casually asked how much.
"It's a total of 166,000, but seeing that you are here for the first time, I will give you a discount and give 160,000." The boss said with a smile.
And I was stunned, wondering if I had heard it wrong, and looked at the things on the table, a few plates of simple edamame peanuts, and a pot of hot tea, which cost 160,000?
"You're not mistaken, are you?" I looked at the chubby boss and asked suspiciously.
"It's still the cheapest time, and if it was 10 years ago, even if you paid for it, you wouldn't necessarily have a seat." The proprietress was still smiling at her fat face.
"Aren't you a pit man!"
I was not happy at once, and pointed to the pile of things on the table and said, "Just these few things, you want 160,000 yuan, and your ginseng was still Ganoderma lucidum at that time!" ”
When the proprietress heard what I said, her face also changed, "I am free to buy and sell here, if you don't need it, just don't buy it." ”
As he spoke, he was ready to take the pile away.
At this time, I also saw that the people next to me were looking at me with a very strange look, like mockery and ridicule.
"Wait."
Luo Ya on the side took out a bank card and handed it over, "We want something." ”
The boss smiled, "That's right, call me again if you need to." ”
I was about to say something, but Luo Ya kicked me lightly under the table.
I also kept my mouth shut, Luo Ya is not a fool, she is definitely not unpurposeful in doing this.
After a while, several more tables came in from outside, and each table ordered the same thing, and the charges were the same as ours.
But those people are just as commonplace, there is no quarrel or quarrel, just pay by card as a matter of course.
I wondered, there is only such a small shop in this barren mountains and mountains, and the fees are more expensive and reasonable, but a pot of tea and a few plates of peanuts and edamame will charge 160,000 yuan, which is too pitiful!
Luo Ya gave me a look, signaled me not to be too troublesome, and then poured me a cup of tea.
The tea soup is cool, faintly revealing a strange fragrance, and it smells quite comfortable.
I tried to take a sip, and as soon as the tea soup flowed into my mouth, the fragrance was overflowing, and it slid down my throat, and I suddenly felt a warm current filling my whole body along the tendons, and there was an indescribable sense of comfort.
"It's called ambergris."
Luo Ya glanced around, and after confirming that no one was paying attention to us, she lowered her voice and said, "When the Xuanbing Beast appears, the temperature will drop sharply, and if you don't have this ambergris tea to warm up, even if you have a Xuanli Protector, you will be frozen to death." ”
Only then did I understand why this pot of tea could be sold so expensive, and hundreds of thousands of life-saving things were not expensive.
However, I was also secretly distressed in my heart, the time when the Xuanbing Beast appeared was only within the range of these three days, but no one could say exactly which day it appeared.
If we continue to calculate it in this way, we will have to drink this ambergris tea continuously before the appearance of the Xuanbing Beast, which is a large expense.
However, Luo Ya is light and light, and it is not difficult to see that she, like Long Chuan, is probably also a character who has a golden key in her mouth since birth and has never been short of money to spend.
I continued to observe the surroundings while drinking tea, most of these people were in groups of three or five, there were no single ones, and the smallest number was with me Luo Ya, as well as the table of the blue cheongsam woman and the ugly man.
The big-shouldered and round-waisted proprietress yawned on the counter, and although her appearance was disgusting, I didn't dare to underestimate her at all.
To be able to open an inn here, there must be a character with two brushes.
Luo Ya also lowered her voice and said to me: "This inn was established fifty years ago, and there have been two bosses in total, and now this fat woman has been here thirty years ago, and it is only open for three days every ten years. ”
After listening to it, I further verified my guess just now, this inn can stand here for fifty years, and it is impossible for the boss to have some skills.
In short, every one of you here is not simple, and there may be a master with the same strength as the ugly man, or even more, there are legendary top powerhouses above the ninth grade.
Yang Wanqing told me about the knowledge of the Xuanli grade before, the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes, to the eighth grade is definitely a first-class master, and the ninth grade is a legendary existence.
And above the ninth grade, there is also a level, known as the god Xuanshi, but that kind of realm is very rare, in the past few hundred years, only three people have reached this cultivation, one of them is Liu Bowen during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty.
The inn was quiet, but no one slept, either drinking tea or being in a daze or whispering.
Everyone has their own ghosts in their hearts, and Luo Ya and I also keep quiet at this time, and the more low-key the better in this case.
And Luo Ya's strength and I may be the weakest two in this inn.
"Boss lady, do you have a letter over there, can the Xuanbing Beast come tonight? If I don't come, I'll get some sleep. ”
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, and following the reputation, I saw a young man in his early twenties, dressed fashionably, with a few studs on his ears, and his words and deeds revealed a kind of arrogance and command.
The chubby boss smiled at everyone when he saw him, and smiled at the young man, "Don't worry, guest officer, I have already let Xiaobo out, and it is estimated that he will come back in ten minutes at most, and then I will know if the Xuanbing Beast can come out tonight." ”
", it's so troublesome, I'm bored to death here, and there's no cell phone signal, I can't two handfuls of chicken!" The stud boy complained indignantly.
"If you're bored, you can go down the mountain and play, and no one will force you to come."
At this time, another voice sounded, and the person who spoke was also a young man in his early twenties, dyed with green hair, and when he spoke, he was lazy, revealing a sense of arrogance, presumably also a rich child.
", what the are you talking about? It's your business if labor and management can't go down the mountain! ”
The earring boy became angry all of a sudden, pointing to the green hair and said, "Why are you everywhere, don't think that you are awesome if you received a mysterious beast last year, no matter how many mouths of labor and management will kill you first, you will be idle and bored anyway!" ”
The stud boy and the green-haired boy obviously knew each other before, and it seemed that the two of them were still a little festive.
The green-haired boy was not angry, and looked at the earring boy with a smile and said, "Yes, what's wrong with me, don't accept it?" I don't have the ability to play with my little green snake. ”
The green-haired boy said, as soon as his arm was raised, a green light flashed, and suddenly a small green snake with a whole green body appeared on his arm, surrounding his arm, and his mouth was still spitting red letters.
I couldn't feel the strength of that little green snake, but after everyone next to me saw that thing, their faces changed slightly, and it was not difficult to see that this little green snake was extraordinary.
"I didn't expect the Xuanqing Snake to be in the hands of this person."
Luo Ya frowned and whispered, and then lowered her voice and explained to me, "Be careful, although the strength of this Xuanqing snake is only four grades, it is a strange poisonous thing, if it is bitten, the whole person will immediately turn into thick water!" ”
I was secretly frightened when I heard it, no wonder the person next to me would show such an expression when the Xuanqing snake came out.
And the earring boy laughed, "You really treat this little thing as a green onion, and the acquaintance quickly takes it back, so as not to have a chance to regret it later." ”
"What the are you talking about!" The green-haired boy glared at each other viciously.
The young man with the stud had a fearless expression, and said word by word, "I said, you're a fucking idiot!" ”
", die!"
The green-haired boy was suddenly furious, and with one hand raised, the green snake turned into a flash of blue light and shot towards the stud boy.
