Chapter 50: The Inn

"This man is really lucky, he made a thousand taels in one fell swoop. The teahouse owner said to some familiar guests as he cleaned up the table.

"That is, that is, when I met the master of the Wu family, he was not short of money, and he loved these strange things very much, otherwise, a hundred taels of puppets, who would buy them?" said the guest at the table.

"That's it, we ordinary people, where can we buy it?"

Yang Yi listened to the discussion, and asked out loud, "Dare to ask the shopkeeper, who is this Wu Yuan, who is so wealthy?"

Seeing that Yang Yi was dressed well, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and said, "Childe is from out of town, right?"

Yang Yi nodded, "I'm passing by here." ”

"That's right. The shopkeeper said with a smile, "Who doesn't know Wu Jin'an and Wu Yuanwai in this locality? He is a well-known wealthy merchant here, and almost all the Qinglou gambling stalls in this town are his property." ”

"It turns out that I do this kind of business!" Yang Yi muttered in a low voice, thoughtful.

The boss said, "Actually, it doesn't matter what he does for a living, what matters is that he earns money." Eating, drinking, women, it's nothing to him anymore, and now, he loves to collect some rare things. ”

"So this old man's luck, here, except for Wu Yuan, no one really buys his high-priced puppet. ”

"I see. Yang Yi thanked the shopkeeper.

Then when paying for tea, Yang Yi also exempted the store from making change. Then he got up and left the teahouse.

Walking out of the teahouse, the parrot Xiaoba on Yang Yi's shoulder said in a low voice, "That person is really generous when he goes out, and those interesting puppets have all been bought." ”

"Do you want to send you to that foreigner's house, follow the brocade clothes and food, and enjoy the wealth? And the puppet play. Yang Yi asked.

"Don't. Hachi hurriedly said.

Yang Yi suddenly felt at this time that the old man was performing puppets on the street, and the bid was extremely high, as if he wanted to attract Wu Yuan to buy it.

However, what twists and turns are there, Yang Yi doesn't want to explore.

At this moment, it was too late, so Yang Yi stopped hurrying, and found an inn not far from the market town, ready to stay.

Yang Yi stood outside the inn and asked the parrot on his shoulder, "Xiaoba, tell me, based on your experience, is this a black shop?"

The parrot looked at the inn for a moment and said with a smile, "Generally, black shops are opened in remote places, and they dominate the passing travelers. Although this inn was not built on the street, it is not far from the market town, and it should not be a black shop. ”

"Well, we'll rest here for the night. Yang Yi said with a smile and walked into the inn.

As soon as Yang Yi entered the inn, a young man in cloth came up, Yang Yi had more than 2,000 taels of silver on his body at this time, and he was not bad for money, so he asked for an upper room. I asked the store to prepare a table of noodles.

This inn is quite elegant, and Yang Yi sat down in the hall. Suddenly, I found that in the corner of this hall, the old man who sold puppets was sitting alone at a table, eating silently.

Yang Yi looked at his breath, and he was actually a qi refiner who had entered the qi refining realm.

The parrot Hachi also spotted the old man, staring at his sack with dripping eyes, as if hoping that he would bring out some more puppets.

In addition to this old man, there are still a few tables of guests sitting in the hall, and it is estimated that they are all passers-by who are staying here, and they are all eating dinner at the moment.

Not far from Yang Yi, there are a man and two women sitting, the three of them, you feed me, I feed you, very harmonious, and I don't know what the relationship is.

Just as Yang Yi sat down, another middle-aged scholar came in.

Yang Yi clearly saw that when this scholar came in, the innkeeper who greeted him frowned, and seemed to be a little displeased, so he was not enthusiastic.

But the scholar didn't care, he still asked for a single room, ordered a few side dishes, and walked to a table in the corner.

The middle-aged scholar passed by Yang Yi's side, saw Yang Yi looking at himself, and smiled slightly to show his friendliness.

Yang Yi also smiled and nodded, but the two did not communicate.

The reason why Yang Yi looked at this middle-aged scholar was that he actually had some dead air on him.

This gray qi is different from the black qi on the original scholar Ning Yuan's body, and it is not a sign of death. But it also shows that this scholar has been in the company of filthy things all year round.

For example, the executioner, and the guy who guards the righteous village have this kind of discouragement.

Yang Yi looked at it again, this scholar was obviously also a person who knew how to refine qi, but his cultivation was not profound.

Looking at his appearance, he doesn't look like a fool, nor does he look like a guy guarding Yizhuang, nor does he look like an executioner, I don't know where he got into this kind of filthy atmosphere.

A mysterious old man, an eccentric scholar, and a trio who may be about to multiplayer......

Yang Yi felt that this inn was really worth living.

Just thinking like this, the little guy from before brought the food.

At this time, a man and two women at the table were having a meal and went to the guest room hand in hand. Yang Yi pulled the innkeeper over and asked, "What is the relationship between the three of them, and they are so close?"

The little guy glanced at it and said with a smile, "Husband and wife!

Yang Yi slapped his forehead, almost forgetting that it is normal for men in this world to have three wives and four concubines.

"This son, hasn't married yet?" asked with a smile as the little girl left in a hurry.

Yang Yi shook his head.

"No wonder, one man with two women is very common, like Wu Jin'an and Wu Yuanwai in our town, but there are seventy or eighty concubines, which is surprising. ”

When Yang Yi heard the name of Wu Jinan again, he couldn't help but pay attention to the old man in the corner, only to see that when he heard this name, he was really slightly stunned, but he soon returned to normal.

"Childe, looking at your appearance, you haven't touched a woman, haven't you tasted the joy of Qin Se and Ming?" After the little guy left, the parrot Xiaoba fell on the table, and couldn't help but ask while pecking at the food that Yang Yi had picked up for it.

Yang Yi was very upset when he was complained about by this parrot, and asked rhetorically, "Have you tasted it?"

The parrot raised its head and said confidently, "I am also an amorous bird, and in the jungle where I stayed, as soon as I stood on the branch, countless female birds would come to my arms." Hmph, this little guy's eyelids are really shallow, is it amazing to have dozens of concubines? That's only a fraction of my head. ”

"Didn't you notice that you were so good at bragging?"

"Don't you believe me, I dare say that even now, there are birds in the forest incubating my eggs. ”

Yang Yi pouted when he heard this, and he didn't want to listen to the parrot's boasting anymore, so he had to ignore it anymore, otherwise its cowhide would blow bigger and bigger.

At this moment, Yang Yi suddenly heard a "bang" behind him, which seemed to be the sound of porcelain falling to the ground, and hurriedly turned his head to look, and found that it was the little guy who fell to the ground, convulsive.

The shopkeeper was startled, and hurriedly ran over to help him, but he saw that the little guy fell to the ground and didn't want to get up, and he pointed at the shopkeeper in a delirious mouth and scolded.

He said that he mixed water with the wine in the store on a certain day of the month, said that the pork he used on a certain day was dead pork, and said that he steamed the spoiled food with fresh rice embryos for customers to eat......

At this time, countless people in the guest rooms heard the movement and ran out to investigate. Yang Yi, who was eating, lost his appetite even more.

The shopkeeper was so angry by this scene that he almost turned his back on it.

At this time, the old man walked up to the little guy and said lightly, "This is an evil spirit invading the body and confusing people, no need to panic, I have a way." ”
