Chapter 14: Offending the Vulcan?
Although the faΓ§ade of this inn is large, the facilities are half-used and not new. Guan Yin looked at the half-worn bathtub and the black dirt between the wooden planks and the gaps between the wooden boards, at this time she missed the modern bathroom appliances of the earth very much.
Forcibly endured the discomfort in his heart, Guan Yin quickly washed off his body and lay on the bed.
The bed wasn't very comfortable, but it was better than a bumpy carriage.
When I woke up, it was already dark.
Gui Yuan was already waiting in front of the door of the guest room, and when he saw the official voice coming out, he immediately took her to the lobby to meet with a few other people.
Eating a sumptuous dinner, Guan Yin looked around the lobby, except for their table, there were only two guests sitting at the other table. There were a few tables scattered around, deserted. It's a stark contrast to the bustle of the streets.
"Why is this place so deserted?" asked the question that the official voice wanted to ask.
Xiao Er, who happened to come over to add tea, heard this, and couldn't help but nag: "Alas, since the backyard often catches fire inexplicably, people nearby say that we have offended the fire god here...... Oops......"
Before the shopkeeper's voice was finished, a thick account book slapped on the back of his head, and the innkeeper, who was slightly bloated, walked out from behind the counter, "There is so much nonsense, and I don't go to work yet." After speaking, he turned to the official voice and said with a wry smile: "Don't listen to his nonsense, that's ......."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was a chaotic noise in the backyard, followed by a loud shout: "It's on fire, it's on fire again......"
The boss's face turned blue, and he hurriedly moved his body and ran inside.
Several other people also stood up immediately, Wei Zhongfan glared at Wei Liang, and said to Guan Yin, "Miss, let's change to a hotel?"
Guan Yin waved his hand, "I'll go in and take a look." Seeing that they wanted to follow, he said, "Wei Liang is following, and the others are waiting here." β
Several people saw that she insisted, so they had to give up.
"Xiaoliang, optimistic about Miss. Wei Zhongfan instructed Wei Liang, saw Wei Liang nodding and agreeing, followed Guanyin into the backyard, turned his head to Wei Ning, and said to the Gui brothers and sisters: "Go back and pack up your things, let's change to a hotel." β
Guan Yin entered the backyard and saw that it was a mess inside, and the fire had been controlled. Several domestic servants were picking up the wreckage.
It turned out that the owner of this place was a water magician, and he had just summoned the water flow to extinguish the fire, and now he was sweating profusely on the ground covered with water stains, looking decadent, "Is it true that my inn can't be opened?"
Guan Yin sniffed, found that there was a faint smell in the air, pulled a subordinate next to him and asked a few words, and knew it in his heart.
She turned around and whispered a few words to Wei Liang, and turned back to the lobby under Wei Liang's surprised gaze.
Wei Zhongfan was waiting outside with his baggage, and when he saw Guan Yin coming out, he hurriedly walked over: "Miss, let's leave quickly." β
It turned out that the guests in the other two rooms of the hotel had already checked out and left, and Wei Zhongfan was waiting for the official voice to come out.
"No need to leave. Guan Yin said, and walked to the door, "I'll go with Wei Liang, go for a walk, and you go back to your room to rest." β
Without waiting for a few people to react, he turned around and walked out of the door. Wei Liang, hurry up and keep up.
"Inquire about the price and come back here and wait for me. After walking two corners, Guan Yin said to Wei Liang.
Gui Que was next to him and asked, "What price?"
Wei Liang ignored him and said to Guanyin: "But there is ...... there"
"I've decided. Guan Yin said, turning around and walking in the other direction.
"Ah...... That young lady can't be alone. Wei Liang was anxious to catch up with Guanyin, but Guanyin's footwork was fast, and he flashed into the crowd in a few clicks.
Wei Liang looked around, the lights were on, and the flow of people at night was even more than during the day, and the small figure of the official voice was dissolved into it, it was so easy to find.
"What's going on?" asked Gui Que from the side.
Wei Liang said Guanyin's previous instructions.
"Miss is going to open an inn?" Gui Que was stunned for a moment, "But didn't that shop say it offended the god of fire?"
The god of fire is the elemental god who rules the element of fire.
The gods believed in this world are elemental gods that already existed when the world world was formed. The elemental god, the god of the power of nature in the world. Legend has it that the elemental gods are the miracles of the creator gods, and they are in charge of all the elemental power in the world.
Each elemental has its own elemental god.
At present, the elemental gods revered by the people of the Demon Illusory World are the gods of light, fire, wood, water, earth, thunder, and wind.
If you offend the god of fire, you will be spurned by the god of fire, you will lose the protection of the god of fire, and the element of fire will wreak havoc on everything.
Gui Que looked at Wei Liang, who was worried, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Since Miss is not worried, then just do what Miss tells you." β
In his opinion, Guanyin is not just a little doll less than six years old, otherwise he would not take the initiative to find Guanyin to recognize the master. Of course, a large part of this is because of the "wages" that can be acknowledged. You must know that once a person in the Demon Illusory World sells himself into slavery, in addition to the money from the sale, the master only has to eat and live, and occasionally there will be a reward for silver, but that all depends on the master's mood. Therefore, when he saw the father and son of the Wei family claiming to receive the salary, he was moved.
After an hour or so, the two returned to the place where they were separated from Guanyin, and Wei Liang craned his neck to look, hoping to find the small figure in the crowd.
"Let's go. β
"Huh......" Wei Liang turned around and lowered his head, only to find that Guan Yin had come behind him without knowing when Lu Dao had arrived.
The three of them walked in the direction of the hotel.
Wei Liang hesitated for a while before saying, "Miss, we have already inquired about the price, but ...... But we don't have enough money. β
He spoke a little hard, although the master should pay for the hotel if he wanted to open a hotel, but in his opinion, his master was just a little doll less than six years old, and he had to take care of her, instead of asking her for money.
"Well, how much does it cost?" asked Guan Yin nonchalantly.
"A nearby inn of similar size costs 1,500 gold coins. Wei Liang replied.
"Based on the situation of that inn, we can at least press it to less than 1,000 gold coins. Gui Que said on the side.
Guan Yin nodded, and a few people returned to the hotel, Gui Yuan had already fallen asleep with Xiao Wei Yu, Wei Zhongfan, and Wei Ning were waiting in the lobby.
Guan Yin asked the two to go back to the room to rest first, and he beckoned the two of them to go to their room.
Wei Zhongfan hesitated slightly, nodded in agreement, and left with Wei Ning, who glanced at the direction of Guanyin's room with a resentful look when Wei Ning turned around.
