The matter of the demons is leaked
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they also agreed with what he said, even if you are reluctant to pay for life-threatening matters, you have to pay your blood, otherwise you don't know how you will die. One by one, they reluctantly stepped forward and handed over the silver.
Yan Ling's room was knocked again, and her eyes moved slightly, it was still the same person before. She asked him casually, "Have you always done this kind of storytelling here?"
Xiao Er hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Yo, guest officer, you have wronged the little ones, our shop has always been in the wine and food business, but this storyteller often rents stories in our restaurant, and today he also chartered the scene in advance, take the money to do things, we have to listen to him, right?"
This is a beautiful statement, but how can Yan Ling not know that he is just a sleek man who sees people and talks about people. If they didn't get kickbacks in today's story, she wouldn't believe it. She added, "How are you going to give him this money?"
"Well, we'll have to wait for him to go back to the private room and give it to him. ”
"Oh, he still has a private room here, I don't know which one?" Seeing Xiao Er looking at her with a strange face, she said again: "That's the case, I heard him tell a very good story, and I just happened to have a very good story in my hand, and I want to pass it on to him and let him tell it to the big guy on my behalf." ”
"Oh, well, he's in the last room in the hallway. Xiao Er was not surprised when he heard this, after all, where did these storytellers get so much to talk about? In addition to reading, isn't it just what others tell them, he can talk more about it, and he can also drive the business of the restaurant, a win-win situation in one fell swoop, there is no reason not to support it.
"Then can you please go down below and tell me at this time? I still have something to do, I can't stay here for a long time, so let him rest and listen to my story? Let him rest assured and promise not to disappoint him." As he spoke, he took out a big ingot of silver in his hand, which looked like it could be about ten taels, put it into Xiao Er's hand, and said with a smile: "This should be regarded as a hard work for the little second brother." ”
Seeing that such a big ingot of silver was given to him, Xiao Er was naturally moved, and immediately nodded in agreement and turned around and walked out of the box. Yan Ling watched Xiao Er walk up to Mr. Storyteller from the window and say something in his ear, his eyes still signaling to her. Seeing the storyteller come over, she raised her glass to him. Mr. Storyteller's eyes flashed and he nodded slowly.
"That...... You're tired after listening to it for so long, why don't you eat and drink and rest for a while, and then we'll continue in half an hour?"
The lobby suddenly shouted, "What do you mean, take the money and leave?"
"Ouch, how dare I, you are all my iron rice bowl, how can I smash it, I dare not offend you if I offend anyone. Isn't this a bit urgent, someone has big news to tell me, I have to hurry up and hear what it is, and then I can share it with you?"
"Why don't you go later? ”
"It's not impossible, uncles, aunts and grandmothers, people are about to leave, and the roll call is now. The big guy eats and drinks well, and the old man will come back soon, wait a while!" the storyteller hurriedly left the scene after saying hello, causing the guests to grab peanuts from their plates and throw them at him.
Seeing that the other party had left, Yan Ling also followed the guidance of Xiao Er before and went to the innermost box in the corridor.
After a long time, someone came over and knocked on the door slowly, "Please come in!"
Yan Ling raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows in surprise, but it was a little unexpected, it was not the storyteller who came in, but the previous Xiao Er. At the moment he was not as calm as before, looking at her with horror in his eyes. Yan Ling's eyes sank, something bad happened.
Sure enough, the lobby downstairs, which was originally quite peaceful, was turned on their backs at this moment, and one by one they were like being chased by fierce beasts, and they all rushed out of the lobby and ran onto the street. "The remnants of the demon clan are in that restaurant, everyone run, they're going to eat people!"
Her eyes showed a cold light, and her expression was full of gloom, and when Xiao Er saw this, her legs trembled in fright, and she retreated in a panic, wanting to leave. Yan Ling stretched out her hand and took it in, bringing the person to herself, looking at Xiao Er who was so frightened that she was about to faint, she helplessly held her forehead and sighed. "Don't be afraid, I won't kill you!"
People are so afraid that they can be calmed down by a few words from others, and seeing that he has not improved at all, and even his whole body is trembling, he is afraid that he will be scared to death by himself. Yan Ling slowly let go of him, and grabbed his neck with one hand, "You can just answer what I ask you, if this is the case again, I will kill you immediately!"
This fierce roar was really good, and the people in front of him immediately cheered up. "Don't, don't kill me, I'll say whatever you ask, I, I'm old, I'm young, spare me. ”
"Where's the storyteller?"
"No, I don't know, he, he took the silver and ran away, and before he ran, he shouted to you, are you ......" Knowing what the latter words meant, Xiao Er didn't dare to say it again.
"Do you know where he lives?"
"I don't know the exact address, I only know that I saw the direction he came from before he lived on this street, and went out to the left, but I really don't know where it is, after all, he doesn't work in our place, and he doesn't need to register his residence. ”
Knowing what she wanted to know, she looked at Xiao Er and said: "I'm not a demon, you don't have to be afraid, and even the demon clan is good and bad, I hope you don't spread the rumors." Then the spirit turned around and left, no longer staying.
Walking out of the street, there are few people on the street, even the stove with the fire on is not managed, the food stalls are so desolate there, and some are even squeezed and trampled because of the panic of the crowd, and it is a mess. Yan Ling looked around, and there were one or two figures hiding behind the pillar tent in the distance and secretly looked at her, and when she saw her gaze, one by one was like a frightened bird, and instantly dispersed.
Her heart sank like iron, she didn't expect them to dare to do this, spread panic in the world, and want to use public opinion to make them become street rats, which is too shady.
She didn't go far before Yan Ling stopped, and she looked at the group of citygoers in front of her who were carrying hoes and axes and rushing towards her with big axes, and in front of them there was a long-bearded old man wearing a Taoist robe, who seemed to be looking at him with the head of a horse.
Those people looked at her with fear in their eyes, but they forcibly followed behind the immortal they had just found, wanting to get rid of the remnants of the demon clan in front of them.
The old man in the Taoist robe saw Yan Ling, who was dressed in red, stroked his beard, and had an unfathomable and confident expression, "You are the remnant of the demon clan?"
Yan Ling sneered and said, "Demon remnants, who are you talking about, and what identity do you dare to say such things?"
The old man coughed twice, stroked the hem of his clothes, and reported to himself arrogantly: "I am a scattered immortal wandering all over the world, and I am the best at subduing demons and eliminating demons in my life, since I met you today, don't think about escaping!"
"No name, no surname, no home, and dare to charge me at will, you're afraid you're just a charlatan!" Yan Ling saw that he was dressed poorly, and his speech was also unkind.
Angered by Yan Ling's words, the old Taoist priest said stiffly: "Demon, dare to be so rampant in front of this Dao, take the move!" As he spoke, he took out a handful of dust from nowhere and attacked Yan Ling.
Yan Ling knew at a glance that this old Taoist priest's cultivation was not weak, and he used to refine the old Taoist with one hand, and the dust whiskers were thrown out by him and extended to several zhang, and they were also divided into several groups to attack her from all directions.
