Chapter 54: Man Under the Roof
"The boy is guilty of disturbing the adults to clean up here. ”
Seeing that the six of them were gone, Lone Star hurriedly apologized to the shopkeeper.
"It's okay, little brother, don't be polite to me. ”
The shopkeeper suddenly waved his hand and said heartily: "I saw everything in my eyes before, it was all the six people who provoked and caused trouble later, and it had nothing to do with the little brother, but the little brother was not afraid of his many people, and he shot calmly, and dared to shake Lingye with a bloody rush, this momentum is unconvincing." ”
"Seniors praise falsely. ”
Lone Star replied modestly, but his suspicions were endless: "This person and I don't know each other, but he has taken good care of me from the beginning, which is really suspicious, and judging from Sister Xiaoyue's performance, this person's cultivation is definitely much higher than that of Lord Qin at the beginning, such a strong person is willing to nest in such a small inn as a shopkeeper, there must be a demon when things go wrong, this person's behavior is so weird, I am afraid that the purpose will not be simple, I still don't want to entangle with it, and I should break away from Fang as soon as possible." ”
As he spoke, he arched his hand to the shopkeeper and said, "Anyway, this matter is caused by me, and it's not good for the junior to stay here anymore, farewell!"
"Hey, little brother, that's wrong. ”
The shopkeeper stopped Lone Star back, and said enthusiastically: "Since the little brother has come to my store, it is the old man's guest, how can the old man push the responsibility on the guest's head, besides, this square circle is just my inn, if the little brother leaves, it is inevitable that he will still have to eat and sleep, if he meets the previous group of people again, the little brother is afraid that it will not be easy to deal with." ”
"That's better than being planted in the hands of you old monster!"
Lone Star sneered in his heart, but he ignored it and walked straight forward, and suddenly, a sound of unsheathing made him turn his head sharply.
"Tsk, what a cold sword, this is the real magic weapon in the little brother's hand. ”
Lone Star was suddenly startled and lowered his head, and sure enough, his palms were already empty. And the waning moon that was still in his hand had already fallen into the hands of the shopkeeper at some point, and was being played with by him with admiration.
"Dare to ask the shopkeeper what does this mean?" Lone Star forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked coldly.
"Hehe, the old man just wants to make a joke with the little brother, don't be surprised by the little brother. ”
Seeing this, the shopkeeper laughed a few times, but returned the waning moon in his hand again: "How about it, can the little brother give the old man a face and stay here for one night?"
Lone Star smiled again and said humbly: "The shopkeeper said that he laughed, thanks to the shopkeeper's kind invitation, it is really an honor for the kid to stay here for one night." ”
The shopkeeper suddenly had a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Okay, it turns out that the little brother is not only skilled, but also very comparable, the little brother can rest assured, the old man just saw that the little brother had such a cultivation at such an age, and he had the idea of making friends in his heart, and there was no malice." ”
"Being in the rivers and lakes, people are unpredictable, and the younger generations are not deeply involved in the world, so they should naturally be cautious, and please forgive the seniors for the offense. ”
"Hehe, what is offensive or not, little Liuzi, don't hurry up and prepare a good guest room for the little brother. ”
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he looked at the frightened crowd and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that the old man's words are useless, or everyone can't understand the old man's meaning, the old man asked you to sit down and drink and eat." ”
Hearing this, everyone sat down in a hurry, desperately trying to return to the state just now, but their hands did not obey the call.
Under the eaves, he had to bow his head, facing this profound shopkeeper, Lone Star couldn't beat it, he couldn't hide, and he could only go with the flow for the time being, and take one step at a time. In desperation, I had to go upstairs with the guy, and thought about it as he walked: "This shopkeeper wants me to stay in every possible way, there must be something to use me, my skills are far inferior to him, it is better to follow him for the time being, after all, no matter what, he helped me out of the siege, and I always owe him a favor." ”
"With the cultivation of this shopkeeper, if he intentionally harms himself, he is afraid that he will have been poisoned by him a long time ago, if he has no intention, then why should he leave his room and run outside to expose the night. ”
Thinking like this, people will relax and be less afraid than before.
"Guest, this is your room. ”
When he got upstairs, the guy pointed to a private room in front of him and said, "The guest officer might as well go in first to take a look, if there is anything wrong, then tell the villain, anyway, the villain is downstairs." ”
Lone Star nodded, and then instructed the guy to send the food needed for the evening directly back to the room, and not to disturb him if he was fine, and after explaining, he pushed the door open with a squeak.
"Sister Xiaoyue, Sister Xiaoyue. ”
As soon as he sat down on the bed, Lone Star couldn't wait to call Satsuki's name, but there was still no reaction at all.
"Alas, it seems that Sister Xiaoyue will not come out for a while. ”
Lone Star sighed, and said to himself helplessly: "Stay here for the night first, I will leave tomorrow no matter what, and I hope that the shopkeeper will not be embarrassed at that time." ”
Accustomed to the days when Satsuki was by his side, he suddenly lost contact, Lone Star couldn't tell what it was like, he just felt empty in his heart, and he was very uncomfortable.
"I'm afraid there will be more days like this in the future, so I'd better adapt as soon as possible. ”
As he gets deeper into the world, the higher the cultivation of the martial artists he comes into contact with, and it can be seen that in the not-so-distant future, the time for contact with Xiao Yue will become less and less, thinking of this, Lone Star couldn't help but clench his fists: "Strength, I still need stronger strength." ”
......
"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"
"Guest, are you there?"
About an hour later, a knock on the door woke Lone Star from his cultivation, and Lone Star subconsciously opened his eyes, and then jumped off the bed with an arrow step.
"It turned out to be the second brother, is there anything wrong?"
Seeing that the person who came was the shopkeeper's Xiao Er, Lone Star was slightly surprised, but because this person had defended him before, Lone Star also had a good impression of him.
The little second smiled and exchanged a few words with Lone Star, and then said straight to the point: "The guest officer is like this, our shopkeeper admires the courage of the guest officer very much, and specially sent a villain to invite the guest officer downstairs to talk." ”
"Oh, I see. ”
Lone Star was stunned for a moment, it seemed that this old guy was afraid that he was going to take action, but his face pretended to be surprised: "It's rare for the old shopkeeper to look up to it like this, so it's better to be respectful and obey your fate, and ask the second brother to lead the way." ”
Seeing Lone Star so refreshing, the little second was naturally overjoyed, and walked around to the front of Lone Star in a few steps, and said respectfully: "Guest officer, please come with me." ”
With that, he walked down the stairs without hurrying, and Lone Star followed him through the hall, then around the guest room on the left, and finally came straight to a cubicle where he stopped.
"This is the guest officer, and my shopkeeper has been waiting here for a long time. ”
"Well, there's the second brother Lao. ”
Lone Star arched his hand at Xiao Er, then pushed the door open and stepped in.
"Little brother, it's a good wait for the old man. ”
Seeing Lone Star coming in, the shopkeeper immediately stood up from his seat and said enthusiastically: "I'm afraid that the little brother hasn't eaten yet, hehe, the old man has already prepared a table of wine and food, just waiting for the little brother to come." ”
But I heard Lone Star refuse: "Thank you for the kindness of the seniors, but the juniors have always had a weakness, if there is something hidden in the heart, then nothing can be eaten, if the seniors really have something that the juniors need to do, although the orders are, the juniors will definitely abide by it." ”
"Haha, the little brother is really a smart man, and the old man will get straight to the point. ”
When the shopkeeper saw Lone Star so straightforward, his good feelings suddenly increased a little: "It's not a secret, the old man does have something to ask the little brother here, and please don't shirk the little brother, after the matter is completed, I will thank you again." ”
"What's the matter?"
Lone Star immediately asked, and said, "Please also ask the seniors, but it doesn't hurt to say, if it is within the scope of the kid's ability, the kid should do his best."
"Hmph, if I can do it, I'll naturally help you, but if I can't do it......"
Lone Star muttered to himself, and at the same time, a trace of cunning unconsciously drifted through his eyes
