I looked the mummy Xiao Er up and down, and found that his whole body, except for his eyes, was tightly wrapped in the brown cloth, like a big rice dumpling. His eyes, scattered and wooden, were like those of a dead man.

I mentally weighed the current situation a little.

This shop will definitely not be a serious business, but if you turn around and leave now, the wind and sand outside are so big, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk much distance with all your efforts, and the outside is not necessarily safer than the inside of this store, maybe there are some beasts lurking outside.

Thinking of this, I finally decided to go in. After the big deal is to go in, I don't live in the store, don't eat food, don't drink water, and when the wind and sand pass, I pat my ass and leave. Even if the people in this store have any bad ideas, they can't attack us openly.

I pulled the rope of the Hong Spirit Beast, but it was still very wary of the mummy Xiaoer and was reluctant to come in.

At this time, the little second said in a gloomy and slow voice: "Guest officer, you have to take care of your friends. ”

In this ghost domain, the Hong Spirit Beast is actually the same as all kinds of demons and monsters, and the status is equal, and the little two think that I am also a demon and a monster, so I regard this Hong Spirit Beast as my friend.

I smiled faintly and said, "If you are offended, please forgive me." With that, I walked up to the Hong Spirit Beast, leaned down, leaned next to its ear, and whispered, "I know what you want to say to me, and I'm aware of the danger here, but it's not necessarily safer outside than here, right?" ”

With that, I patted it on the head and said, "Let's go in, don't worry." ”

At this time, the Hong Spirit Beast was still a little unhappy, but it also slowly raised its feet and walked in.

"Guest officer, do you want to eat or stay in a hotel?" The mummy Xiao Er, who walked in slowly behind him, asked.

I found a table, sat down, and led the beast to its side, allowing it to crouch beside me.

I said, "Bring me a pot of tea." ”

The mummy Xiao Er was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and there was a trace of consternation in his eyes, and he said: "Guest officer, we have human blood, beast scalding, and spiritual grass juice here, but we don't have the tea you want." ”

I was shocked in my heart, and secretly complained in my heart, this is a ghost domain, and all kinds of demons and monsters are alive, so naturally I won't make some tea with bitter leaves like people do, it seems that the sentence just now has aroused the suspicion of this mummy, otherwise he would not hesitate just now.

I immediately quickly made up a lie in my heart, then laughed, and pretended to be very casual and said: "It turns out that your place is called Lingcao Juice, and Qingming Town, north of the evil capital of my hometown, is not called this, and the water brewed from this Lingcao is called tea, or Lingcha." Okay, let's have a pot of spirit grass juice first! ”

When the mummy heard me say this, he was skeptical, but he didn't want to ask anything more, so he said, "Wait a minute, the spirit grass juice will arrive in a while." With that, he turned and left.

When I saw him leave, I was relieved a little.

The Hong Spirit Beast beside him looked around uneasily, and let out a strange low moan.

At this time, I glanced around and found that there were only two guests, me and the Hong Spirit Beast, in this huge inn.

This shop is indeed a bit too weird......

At this time, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps on the second floor.

It was followed by the shrill voice of an old woman, as sharp as the sound of a fingernail scraping against glass.

"Zongzi, where are you dead, come out for the old lady, the railing outside was blown down by the wind, hurry up and fix it for me!"

Hong Lingqi and I followed the prestige, and saw a woman dressed in black coming down the stairs on the second floor, and she didn't seem to see the two of us, so she shouted at the mummy Xiaoer called Zongzi.

Zongzi slowly turned around, unhurried, and only said slowly: "Boss, there are two guests, do you want me to greet the guests, or do you want me to greet the rotten railing outside?" ”

The proprietress turned her head and looked at us, and then she put on a smile on her face, and at the same time piled up countless wrinkles, she smiled and said politely to me and the Hong Spirit Beast: "Two guest officers, I'm sorry, I didn't bother you, right?" Then she glared at the zongzi again and said, "Why don't you go and greet the guests?!" ”

Zongzi still spoke in a calm and mechanical tone, and retorted: "They ordered a pot of spirit grass juice, and I am now beckoning to make spirit grass juice." With that, he slowly turned his head and slowly continued to walk forward.

At this time, the proprietress said to us enthusiastically: "Don't you two guest officers order something to eat?" In my shop, there are a lot of delicious foods, including stir-fried unicorn horns, slices of blue mackerel, and steamed iron arm bear's paws......"

"I'm sorry," I interrupted the proprietress and said, "Boss, we don't eat, let's rest here for a while, and when the wind and sand pass, we have to hurry." ”

"Ouch!" The proprietress immediately screamed pretentiously and said, "Since you have to hurry, how can you not eat?" If you don't eat, where do you have the strength to hurry, you say yes, guest officer, or you can have a plate of the most affordable white cut beast horse meat in the store, only ten low-grade spirit stones are needed! ”

When I heard this, I was immediately stunned for a moment, and then blurted out: "Ten low-level spirit stones, why don't you just grab them?!" ”

The reason why I shouted out like this is because I bought a whole set of clothes and pants before, and I only needed nine low-grade spirit stones, and a dish here requires ten low-grade spirit stones, and this price is equivalent to five yuan a plate of fried rice noodles, but she has to sell it for fifty yuan a plate, which is really a cheat!

The proprietress was not angry, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, do you know that there is no shop in front of the village here, and my price is actually very fair." ”

I scolded in my heart, damn it, so you have a monopoly on the business of a large area of desert around here, so why do you take it for granted.

I pulled my face and said, "If you don't eat, you won't eat, don't be verbose, get out!" ”

When the proprietress heard my swearing, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, and she pulled her face down.

At this time, Zongzi came over with a pot, he slowly put the pot on the table, put down two small cups, and said slowly: "Guest officer, use it slowly." ”

He said to the proprietress again, "Boss, I'll go and cultivate the railing outside." With that, he turned and left.

The proprietress didn't pay attention to the zongzi, and only looked at me and Hong Lingyu with a pulled face. The Hong Spirit Beast bared its fangs and glared at the proprietress.

I looked at the spirit grass juice on the countertop, and poured a glass unhurriedly, but I never picked up the cup to drink.

Seeing that I hadn't drunk for a long time, the proprietress asked, "Guest, what's wrong?" Why not drink? Do you suspect that my spirit grass juice is poisonous in it? As she spoke, she lifted the teapot, opened her mouth, poured it into her mouth, "cooed" a few times, drank several sips, and said: "The old lady does business with absolute conscience!" ”

I smiled faintly and looked outside, the wind and sand outside had become much smaller, so I said, "Boss, settle the bill." ”

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, put down the teapot in her hand, and said aggressively: "You ordered my spirit grass juice and didn't drink it, what do you mean?" ”

I said, "It's not interesting, I just want to avoid the wind and sand here, and I don't want to be kicked out by the proprietress because I don't have any consumption, so I just ordered a pot." ”

The proprietress sneered, nodded, and said, "Oh, so that's the case, that's good, this spirit grass juice is a pot of intermediate spirit stones, give the money quickly!" ”

"Ahh Why don't you just draw my blood?! "I called out.

You must know that an intermediate spirit stone is equal to a hundred low-level spirit stones, and the civilians in this ghost domain, even in a year, can't spend an intermediate spirit stone.

The proprietress gave me a blank look and said very coldly: "Hmph, some people don't understand what water means in the desert, so they order a pot of spiritual grass juice, but they waste it like this." To tell you the truth, I originally only bought a pot of five low-grade spirit stones for this spirit grass juice, but I just saw that you were wasted like this, so I will charge you an intermediate spirit stone, and give money quickly, an intermediate spirit stone! As she spoke, the proprietress stretched out her palm.

I said, "Then I won't give it to you, see what you can do to me?" ”

The proprietress snorted coldly and said: "Okay, good, you are ruthless, you have a sword, right, and there is a Hong Spirit Beast, I can't beat you, but, hmph, there are still several days from here to the evil capital, there are deserts all the way, except for me, there is no other place to get water, if you don't give it, then I won't get water for you, you just wait to die of thirst in this desert, hum, when you become a dry corpse, it's not too late for me to go and clean your money!" ”

After saying that, the proprietress picked up the pot of spirit grass juice, and then turned around and left angrily.

As I watched her leave, I suddenly regretted my impulse, because I really didn't have much water on me, and if there was no place to get water along the way, as the lady said, then I might really become a dried corpse in the desert.

Seeing that the proprietress had already walked away, at this time, I shouted: "Boss, wait! ”

The proprietress immediately stopped, then turned around, the anger on her face had not subsided, and said, "What do you want to do?!" ”

I laughed dryly a few times and said, "Boss, I was offended just now, it was my fault, I apologize to you here, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good." With that, I stood up from my chair, bowed slightly, and apologized.

The proprietress saw that I had changed my personality so quickly, and her face was a little confused, and she did not respond to me immediately.

I walked up to her and said, "This pot of spirit grass juice, since I have already ordered it, then I should pay the bill." As I spoke, I took out a blue mid-grade spirit stone, handed it to the proprietress and said, "Give it." ”

The proprietress immediately smiled at the middle-grade spirit stone and said, "That's right." Then he handed me the pot of spiritual grass juice, and said, "Don't waste it, if you can't drink it, pack it up and take it away, this spiritual grass juice also comes from water, and water is really expensive in this desert!" ”

I laughed a few times and said, "Yes, that's nature." ”

The proprietress said, "Okay, see that you are still an honest person, I will prepare two bags of clean water for you later, and you don't have to pay this money." ”

I quickly thanked him again.

The proprietress fiddled with the mid-grade spirit stone in her hand, and then left with light steps.

I sighed helplessly, thinking to myself, this boss lady is actually quite a good person, although the business is a bit dark, but it doesn't look like a master who kills people and sells goods, it seems that his suspicion is too heavy just now, so there will be such a misunderstanding.

With this in mind, I drank the cold spirit grass juice on the table.

At this time, the Hong Spirit Beast next to me yelled at me and kept biting my pants.

I put down the empty cup, looked down at the Hong Spirit Beast, puzzled, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

But as soon as I finished saying this, I felt my head sink, my legs weakened, and I instantly felt that the sky was dark, and then I fell to the ground.

It's not good, this spiritual grass juice has really been drugged......

"Hey, hey, that's stupid!" Faintly, the voice of the proprietress was heard.
