Chapter 14 Qingluo Town

Stop-and-go is half a day, the sun shines on the surface of the stream along the gaps in the leaves, standing on a moss, Candle Shaochen looked at the town in the distance and squinted, leaned down and took a sip of water and walked towards the town.

From a distance, the town is not very big, and when you walk in, you find that the dense buildings are crowded with each other, and the buildings are not like the buildings and bungalows outside. There are no telephone poles, no electricity, no signal, it seems to be an isolated place, and the rows of ancient architectural style make Candle Shaochen, who is a modern person, feel more slight.

Walking all the way, the streets and alleys seem to be full of martial arts practitioners, everyone looks like a practitioner, even the three-year-old child has the demeanor of a martial artist, not like the children outside to kiss and hug, and set up a family. However, there is one thing that everyone wears brocade robes, and he wears modern casual clothes...... But no one pointed a finger at him, it seems that the people here must have seen people from outside.

Came to a tavern, yes! It is a tavern, just like an ancient restaurant, you can drink, eat and stay in the hotel, looked at the plaque on the gate "Qingluo Tavern", Candle Shaochen walked in.

Looking at the person who walked in, Xiao Er ran over with the towel in his hand, put it on his shoulder and asked, "Is the guest officer eating or staying in the hotel?" He was not at all curious about the "strange clothes" on Candle Shaochen's body, and listening to the waiter's question, he confirmed some of Candle Shaochen's thoughts.

He sat on a wooden bench, looked up and said, "Waiter, copy two plates of vegetarian dishes, two plates of meat dishes, and a bottle of good wine, you can watch and play by yourself!"

This Xiao Er also seemed to know the outside world, so he said: "Guest officer, we call the waiter not the waiter, we call the Xiao Er, as for the meal money, we pay the spirit stone." ”

"......" Candle Shaochen was speechless for a while, although the spirit stone is not big, he will not carry it with him! And who knows that in this era, he will have to pay the spirit stone for a meal. He stood up and was about to leave, and said, "Forget it, I didn't bring the spirit stone, I'd better go!" Seeing that Candle Shaochen was about to walk out, Xiao Er hurriedly shouted: "Guest officer, please stay! We have an unwritten rule here, anyone who comes from the earthly land can eat the first meal for free, as long as it is not wasted!"

Hearing this, Candle Shaochen, who had originally walked out a few steps, walked back, sat down again and looked at Xiao Er, and said, "Then you said it earlier, ...... No, do you have a napkin?"

Xiao Er smiled: "No, but the shop has hand sanitizer, which is specially provided for guest officers like you!"

“...... What do you wash your hands with?" Candle Shaochen asked again.

"Please rest assured, the cubicle is a place to wash your hands, and there is a clear spring that leads down from the back mountain to wash your hands," Xiao Er said with a smile.

Looking at this little er, Candle Shaochen was speechless for a while, just your explanation, your smile is much more professional than the waiter outside. Although they are both martial artists, as a modern secular martial artist, even if they are in the deep mountains and old forests, as long as it is a place where people live, Candle Shaochen must pay attention to it.

When he came to the compartment and watched a half-cut bamboo extend from high to low from the outside of the house, Candle Shaochen also sighed: "Antique is really in place!" Just when he wanted to ask why there was no water flowing down from above, Xiao Er shouted: "Wu Shen, release the water!" After a while, a burst of water flowed down from top to bottom, which was much more pleasing to the eye than today's water head and underwater water.

Presumably it is also the reason why almost all the locals are martial artists, and they are not so particular about eating, otherwise this water must have been flowing, looking at the recessed groove in the ground, Candle Shaochen sighed again, even the drainage system is so good! Rubbing hand sanitizer, compared with the incompatible style here, Candle Shaochen is equivalent to the "ancients" who came to the "modern"!

After sitting for a while, the dishes were served, and after putting them on the table one by one, Xiao Er brought a small jar of wine and said, "Guest officer, please use it slowly!"

Looking at the wooden chopsticks in the bamboo cage, this is the same as the outside, pick up a piece of eggplant and fry the meat and chew it slowly, the taste is much purer than the outside. I suddenly remembered that when I was on the mountain, except for the first meal that the third senior brother made for me, it seemed that he was cooking the rest, and the food cooked by the third senior brother was really ...... After thinking about it, Candle Shaochen began to eat again.

"Little Er, fry a few vegetables for us and serve two cans of good wine!" a rugged man walked in and shouted, followed by two sturdy young men. "Okay, the guest officer waits for a moment!" he said and came over to wipe the table and ran to order food. Looking at them, Candle Shaochen found that there seemed to be few thin people in this town, both men and women looked very strong, and even Xiao Er could find the tendons and flesh under his clothes when he looked closely.

At this time, Candle Shaochen, who was eating, received the attention of the rugged man, and after he sat down, he hugged his fist at Candle Shaochen at the adjacent table: "Brother, but you are from a worldly place?" Candle Shaochen also hugged his fist and said, "Exactly!"

"It's time to eat, I won't say much, after eating, let's go to the ring to compete, brother, what do you think?" Looking at Candle Shaochen, this rugged man could also see that he was extraordinary, so he invited Candle Shaochen.

"Okay, you can find me after eating!" Candle Shaochen finished speaking and continued to eat, eating alone is not boring, at least the food outside this world is much better than that in modern cities. During Candle Shaochen's meal, people kept coming in from outside, it seemed that the meal had arrived, looking at these pure ancient people Candle Shaochen still felt a little emotional, why are the masters and brothers not as strict as them?

Compared with Candle Shaochen, who ate slowly, the rugged men who served the dishes later swept away the seven or eight dishes and two cans of wine on the table in less than half an hour. Maybe it's because people want to finish eating quickly and find Candle Shaochen to compete? Looking at Candle Shaochen, who is still eating slowly and drinking wine from time to time, the rugged man is speechless, can't you eat quickly? Anyway, there is still a martial arts competition, you can finish eating quickly and let's go and eliminate food!

Grinding and grinding for another half an hour, looking at the clean plate, licking his lips Candle Shaochen was satisfied for a while, I haven't had a good meal for a while, and I am really tired of eating roast meat and wild fruits every day. ran to the back and washed his hands again, and Candle Shaochen walked out slowly, compared with the rigorous style of these people, it was really a gap between heaven and earth.

"Xiao Er, say goodbye, thank you for your hospitality!", after thanking Xiao Er, he turned around and said to the rugged man: "Brother, let's go!" Along the way, Candle Shaochen and the rugged man chatted, but his two brothers didn't have anything to say.

The tournament is on the edge of the town, leaning on the lush mountain forest, but it seems to be very close to nature. After walking for about half an hour, I finally arrived at the bottom of the ring, which was made of stone and looked quite sturdy.

Hearing that the two were going to compete in martial arts, the person in charge of the ring wanted to arrive: "Three spirit stones per person!" As soon as he heard this, Candle Shaochen could only say to the rugged man: "Brother, I don't have any spirit stones." Then he turned to the person in charge of the ring and said, "Is the renminbi okay?"

“......”

Or the rough man gave him a piece, after all, he invited Candle Shaochen to compete in martial arts, RMB, who uses the martial arts here?

As soon as they heard that there were secular people who wanted to compete with the people of Qingluo Town, Qingluo Town immediately boiled, and hurriedly told each other, and in less than ten minutes, the ring was crowded with people. Candle Shaochen looked at them helplessly, it is estimated that one-third of the people in this town are here!

The person in charge of the ring said: "I announce the rules of the competition, in fact, it is very simple, you can't use clumsy means such as hidden weapons, you can't attack the key point and put people to death, and you can't stop at the point." ”

Candle Shaochen nodded, indeed, this rule is quite humane.

"The joust begins!" shouted the man who was standing in the ring.
