Returning to the Demon Beast Inn, Lian Meng was sitting on the stone steps with his hands on his cheeks waiting for Zhou Nian.

"You're back. ”

"Huh, why are you here alone, and what about your brothers?" Zhou Nian stopped and looked around.

"They went in to make a reservation. Lian Meng stood up and patted the dust on his body, frowned, and suddenly pointed to the street not far away, "What happened there just now? Why is it so noisy?"

Zhou Nian chuckled and stepped on the stone steps, "Hehe...... It's okay, it's just a hawker being taught a lesson by a group of guards, it's not worth mentioning, let's go in first. ”

"Oh, that's it......" Lian Meng was a little surprised, seeing that the other party didn't want to talk in detail, he simply didn't ask any more.

Following Zhou Nian into the inn, the scene in front of him was even more lively than the market outside!

The inn is very large, the decoration is even more luxurious, except for the more regular more than a dozen tables and chairs, the remaining space is enough to accommodate thirty or forty people, this is only the first floor, as for the guest rooms on the second floor, not to mention.

The people in the store are noisy, you come and go, push the cup and change the lamp, all kinds of shouting and shouting are endless, there are those who eat, there are also those who live in the store, in addition to the demon beasts, there are also some cultivators, mixed fish and dragons, interspersed with them, the guys are constantly busy among the guests, passing dishes and delivering dishes, serving tea and water, and the business seems to be very prosperous.

"Master, here!"

At the counter facing the door, Gong Cheng turned around and happened to see Zhou Nian, and hurriedly waved his hand at him.

Zhou Nian slowly stepped forward, stood next to Gong Cheng near the counter, and asked, "How is it?"

After Gong Cheng heard this, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Yes, yes, but it's just ......"

"But what?"

"There are no upper class rooms, only two lower class rooms. Before Gong Cheng could speak, a shopkeeper standing opposite him suddenly opened his mouth, his eyes swept over Zhou Nian and the others one by one, and his voice was very cold, "Hey, you can't live there?"

He was about twenty years old, and he didn't even lift his eyelids when he spoke, and he bent over with a stinky face, as if everyone owed him money.

Gong Cheng raised his eyebrows, the attitude of the shopkeeper made him a little angry from just now, now Zhou Nian came, he finally couldn't help it, and shouted, "Hey, what kind of attitude do you have?

The shopkeeper glanced at Gong Cheng, raised his eyebrows, and said disdainfully, "Cut, I just have this attitude, what can you do with me? You can't live there? There are still a lot of guests waiting behind, if you don't stay, get out of it as soon as possible!"

"You!" Gong Cheng was anxious, it was the first time he had encountered it by a shopkeeper, he clenched his fists and raised his hand suddenly, and he was about to wave it.

"Hey, do you still want to beat me?" Seeing this, the shopkeeper didn't move at all.

"I ...... I'm beating you snob!" One after another of contempt, Gong Cheng was completely angry.

"Wait!"

With a low shout, Zhou Nian suddenly blocked Gong Cheng's fist.

"Master, he ......"

"Calm down!"

Zhou Nian drank again, and his eyes swept around slightly, as if hinting at Gong Cheng.

Gong Cheng was stunned for a moment, looked at the nearby situation with a stunned expression, and his body suddenly froze there.

Several shirtless middle-aged strong men were gathering towards the counter, and if Gong Cheng's punch just now dared to fall, they would inevitably rush up and take care of Gong Cheng.

To be able to open an inn in this huge city of water, its shopkeeper must have certain means, and it is not uncommon to raise a few powerful thugs under his hands.

In terms of fighting alone, Zhou Nian is naturally not afraid of them, but if he causes unnecessary trouble because of a trivial matter and exposes his strength, it will be a big loss.

patted Gong Cheng's shoulder and motioned for him to temporarily extinguish the fire, Zhou Nian's expression changed slightly, and he laughed softly, "Hehe...... Little brother, my friend was really reckless just now, and if you offend, please don't be surprised, the inferior room will be the inferior room, we lived. ”

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, seeing that the other party confessed, the shopkeeper called a villain Dezhi, and sneered at several strong men with a contemptuous face, signaling them to retreat.

raised his prestige, and the shopkeeper spoke loudly, "Hmph, if you want to cause trouble, you also have to weigh what kind of place this is, whether you are qualified to cause trouble!"

"Yes, yes, brother, you're right, we are all honest people from other places, newcomers, don't know the rules, and don't dare to cause trouble, if there is anything offended, please bear with me. ”

"Hmph, you're pretty good at talking. The shopkeeper felt comfortable, and took the pen and paper very casually, "Say, how many rooms do you want to live in?"

"Well...... this"

Zhou Nian counted against his chin, and was about to speak, but a familiar voice suddenly came from the door.

"Hey, Zhou Nian!"

Looking for prestige, Su Mu and Gu Yan were walking towards here.

The acquaintances got together, and all six of them finally arrived.

Zhou Nian counted the number of people, and immediately got the result, "That, little brother, the remaining two guest rooms will all be rented to us." ”

"How many of you are there?"

"Six. ”

"Six, so three people live in one room?"

Zhou Nian shook his head and said, "No, no, two women live in one, and the three of us live in one." ”

"Oh, what about him?" shopkeeper suddenly pointed at Su Mu.

"He's ......" Zhou Nian had a wicked smile on his face, "Hehe...... He has rough skin and thick meat, just let him live in a firewood house. ”

"What!"

As soon as these words came out, Su Mu almost jumped up.

Pulling a cart to do coolies, eating insects to cure pus, Su Mu has survived all the hardships, seeing that the hard days are coming to an end, he actually let him sleep in the firewood room, not with such torture!

His nose was almost crooked, Su Mu glared at Zhou Nian angrily, and shouted, "Hey, why do you let me live in a firewood house? Where do I have rough skin and thick meat? You don't want to raise people as livestock!"

Zhou Nian turned his head and glared at him, "Oh?

"I ......" Su Muzhen wanted to be tough, but every time he wanted to be tough, he would always be scolded back by Zhou Nian's weird tone of yin and yang.

Many of the surrounding guests began to cast strange glances, Su Mu's cheeks suddenly turned red, and he held back for a long time, and finally found a step down, "This...... Isn't there only one inn in this city of water, there are not enough rooms here, why don't we find another one, and we have to hang ourselves on a tree with a crooked neck?"

"What! Crooked Neck Tree?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Nian didn't refute them, and the shopkeeper opposite suddenly became unhappy.

With a "snap", the shopkeeper threw the brush in his hand on the table.

Looking at Su Mu's dress, he looked like a gentleman, daring to let him live in a firewood house, as if he could wronged him.

His eyebrows raised suddenly, the attitude of the shopkeeper was even worse than just now, he didn't care what other people's faces were, he specifically targeted Su Mu, and said contemptuously, "Hmph, you are not very old, your tone is not small, you don't ask around, except for our demon beast inn, which inn dares to receive you human cultivators? Don't the dog sit in a sedan chair and don't know how to lift, you want to live in a firewood room, you don't want to serve yet, don't stop counting!"

In a word, Zhou Nian couldn't help frowning slightly.

It's no wonder that the shopkeeper treats the guests so arrogantly, daring to be in this huge water city, only their Demon Beast Inn dares to receive human cultivators, one family is dominant, monopolizing the entire industry!

Monopoly is the leader, and it is not for nothing that the shopkeeper dares to openly bomb away customers.

After some insults, Su Mu immediately became anxious, in the same tone as Gong Cheng before, he didn't see the thugs in the store, so naturally he wouldn't allow a shopkeeper to shout five or six, and shouted, "Hey, what kind of attitude do you have?

The shopkeeper chuckled, "Hehe...... What's going on today? Is there a gathering of thorn heads? Why doesn't everyone take our monster inn seriously? Could it be that they all have itchy skin?"

The shopkeeper snorted, and the sturdy men from before surrounded him again.

"You ...... What are you going to do?" Seeing the thugs, Su Mu realized that he had pretended to be too strong just now, and his previous morale had completely collapsed, obviously cowardly.

The shopkeeper waved his hand, he could tolerate Zhou Nian, but he couldn't tolerate Su Mu, and if he didn't kill chickens and monkeys, how could he stand up in the future?

A glance passed over, and several strong men suddenly rushed up.

"Grass, you ...... Don't bully customers!"

Su Mu shouted, he was about to be beaten, and he was still holding on.

However, he wants to die, then he has to see if he has that kind of backbone, although several big men are thugs, but their respective strength should not be underestimated, three times five divided by two to get Su Mu, he threw him out of the door, and threw him directly into the street.

"Bang", Su Mu was like a rotten watermelon thrown out, the wind sounded in his ears, and his body had not yet landed, but he suddenly bumped into a person.

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound, and Su Mu's head hit the other party's stomach, knocking him directly to the ground!

"Grass, which bastard with no eyes hit me?"

With a curse, passers-by on the street cast curious glances.

As far as the eye could see, the person who was hit by Su Mu turned out to be a lame man with a cane in his hand.

He is in his fifties, wearing a black robe, his hair is unkempt, he has a jujube pit, mouse eyes, a garlic nose, and a toad mouth, which is a little ugly, but he can't hide a special momentum on his body.

"Ah, master, are you alright?"

There was also a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl standing next to the lame, dressed in a green dress, with her hair in a bun on her head, fair skin, a beautiful face, and a bumpy figure.

Seeing that the lame man was knocked down for no reason, she hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, suddenly raised her head, and stared at Su Mu lying on the ground, her face full of anger.

"Boom!"

Quickly pulling out the sword at her waist, the girl pointed the sword at Su Mu's neck, and shouted, "Where did you come from, wild boy, you dare to hit my master?

The cold touch, the sword blade was particularly deep when it touched his neck, Su Mu raised his eyelids, and when he saw the sword blade, his legs suddenly weakened with fright, he pressed his head against the ground, and said tremblingly, "No...... I didn't hit it, I was thrown out!"
