Next Chapter

"Stinky boy, hurry up, the chickens are all finished, are you still dreaming?!" The camera turned, and a middle-aged woman in her forties and fifties shouted into the firewood room while feeding the round hens.

"Well, really, I slept for a few hours and started screaming again. In the firewood room, the young man who was rubbing his newly opened eyes on a pile of firewood said dissatisfiedly. The young man's name is Qin Zhong, he is only thirteen years old this year, he is a handyman in a teahouse, three years ago as an orphan, he was bought by the owner of this teahouse for ten taels of silver, and then began to live a life of going to bed and getting up early every night. To him, the proprietress is like an old hen that crows every morning and never stops. No, it's starting to bark again. "Hurry up! Haven't woken up yet? I really slept to death in my last life!"

The proprietress continued to scream, and the voice was even more shrewd than a shrew!

"Here, here, here you are dressing! Uh, the boss, you've finished feeding the chickens again, so I'm going to chop wood." Qin Zhong pushed open the door and saw that the proprietress had already finished feeding her chicks, so he hurriedly went to chop wood.

"Slow, come back to me! I said do you have any memory? The old lady told you yesterday that you fed the chickens this morning, but you still slept so dead! I know how to sleep every day, I really don't know how my old man bought you for ten taels of silver, I don't think you are worth five taels of silver!" The proprietress scolded Qin Zhong fiercely, and she didn't know that she thought she was going to eat people.

"Alas, it's terrible to be uneducated, I've heard this sentence a thousand times, and I haven't heard her change it. Qin Zhong muttered with laughter, for fear that the proprietress would hear it.

"What are you talking about!huh?" "No, no, nothing. "Hmph, you don't dare to say anything, hurry up and chop wood for me!" the proprietress snorted coldly. "That, boss lady, there is almost no firewood in the firewood room, shall I go up the mountain to chop some?" Qin Zhong asked carefully. "Chopping wood, are you stupid, are you?The big explosion last week blew up the mountain, what are you going to do?" "Oh, yes, yes, I forgot, then, what am I doing?" Qin Zhong scratched his head in embarrassment and said. "You" The proprietress was about to scold Qin Zhong, but before the words came out, someone in the lobby of the teahouse shouted: "Is there anyone else in this teahouse? ”

"Hmm, there are still people coming now, isn't there almost no one in Hua Ming Town?" Qin Zhong said strangely. "Little bunny, what are you talking about? Hurry up and chop wood! I'll pick up the guests. When the proprietress heard that a guest was coming, she was overjoyed.

"It's here!Yo, it turned out to be three young heroes! It's really rare, the slave family is polite, dare to ask where you came from?" The proprietress instantly changed from a shrew to a lady, which made Qin Zhong sigh secretly.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, just serve tea. One of the men in a white robe replied coldly, then took out a piece of silver from his baggage and placed it on the table: "Go, bring you the best tea here." When the proprietress saw the silver, her heart suddenly blossomed, and she hurriedly made a gesture of a little woman: "Oh, where is the young man, even if you don't say it, the slave family will serve the best tea, so you wait!" After speaking, he grabbed the silver on the table and trotted to the backyard to make tea.

After a while, the tea was brewed, and the proprietress suddenly felt some abdominal pain, so she made a shrewd appearance again, and shouted at the firewood room where Qin Zhong was: "Stinky boy, come out!" "Here!" Qin Zhong hurriedly put down the axe in his hand and walked out of the firewood room.

"What are you doing, boss?" "Go, send these three cups of tea to a few young heroes, remember, you must be polite, if you annoy them, be careful that the old lady picks your skin!"

When Qin Zhong heard this, he took the tea from the proprietress and walked to the lobby.

"Senior brother, what did you say the master asked us to do in this broken town? What kind of explosion, I don't think there's anything wrong here?" "Senior brother, the location of the explosion is here, yes, but not in this broken town, but at the edge of this broken town, there is a Huaming Mountain, but now it has been blown up. A dark-faced man pointed outside. "What's the matter with us? I'm still preparing for the big competition of the sect in three months" At this time, the cold man said: "The master can send the three of us, which is enough to prove how important this explosion is, the master suspects that there are masters here who have fought, and the explosion was caused by huge Ling Qi fluctuations, but the master did not feel a trace of Ling Qi coming, and the master and several elders are in retreat, so he sent the three of us to investigate and see what caused it." "Ah, master, what master can blow up a mountain, could it be a master of the Ling Zun Realm?" "Senior brother, what master would fight in such a broken town?" "I don't know, but this level of Ling Qi master definitely doesn't exist in our Sky Splitting Sword Sect, and even the sect master can't do this." Therefore, the master warned me that I must investigate in secret, and not let others know, if those masters are still there, it will not be good to surprise them. The other one is Tianwumen, but I think they should send people too, and if they can meet them at that time, it will be interesting, hehe. "Hehe, that's of course, who made you so powerful, senior brother!" "Hahaha" The three of them laughed at the same time, and a burst of footsteps came, "Tata Tata" "Ahem, the tea delivery is here, shut up first." The grim man chuckled.
