Chapter 25 Staying in the Hotel

After a short rest, the old housekeeper Liu Xing drove a tattered cart forward, while Liu Gewen sat on the cart with a rag bag beside him, which contained the corpse of the lightning ferret. The eldest dog and the second dog each rode a horse and happily followed behind.

These three horses were left by Lei Xi'er, and when she left with her two junior sisters on Zhang Feng's flying boat, for the sake of the fairy image of several people, the corpse of the lightning ferret was not taken away, which was cheaper for Liu Gewen and a few people.

And Liu Xing and the others didn't know that beside them, there was a vigilant eye released by Liu Gewen.

The battle with the lightning ferret just now alerted Liu Gewen. For many years, he has strong mental power and a lot of guards to protect him, Liu Gewen is not worried about his safety, and his vigilance is not too high.

But now, he came to this world alone, with no one around him to protect him, and his strength was sealed, and he only relied on his own spiritual power, and he could not guarantee that he would be able to detect danger in time. For example, the lightning ferret he just encountered did not find it earlier than the donkey. If you detect danger in advance, you don't have to risk casting magic yourself.

Therefore, after a few young monks left, Liu Gewen cast 9 vigilant eyes near him and observed a range of nearly 50 meters around him. That is, now that his mental power is strong, when he first arrived at the apprentice magician, he couldn't release so many vigilant eyes at the same time. Of course, this kind of vigilant eye cannot be seen by mortals with the naked eye.

Liu Xing said while driving the car: "That Fairy Du is really good, worthy of being the daughter of the head of Jingtianmen, in order to make it easier for us to hurry, I specially asked Fairy Lei to leave the horses for us." Otherwise, we would have to travel on two legs, and we don't know when we will get the animals. ”

Along the way, Liu Xing didn't know how many times he had repeated, and Liu Gewen's ears were about to grind out calluses. However, he could also understand that in this world, the status of monks is higher than that of magicians in his own world. In the eyes of the monks, mortals are ants, although they don't say it, they don't think about the condition of mortals at all, and even many monks don't care about the life or death of mortals. How a mortal travels is a trivial matter, most monks don't care.

Therefore, monks like Xiang Durien are really rare. Judging by the fluctuation of soul power, Liu Gewen judged that what Du Ruien did just now was out of his heart, not a disguise. However, are the monks of the Heaven-Worshipping Gate really so kind?

Liu Gewen asked Liu Xingdao, "Uncle Xing, have you ever heard of Jingtianmen?"

Liu Xing nodded and said, "I've heard of it." I heard that they are a sect of cultivation that has emerged in recent decades, but they are different from many sects. The young master also knew that most of the sects lived in seclusion in the immortal mountains, and rarely had contact with us mortals. But this Jingtianmen often has disciples who go to the mortal world to help the poor. If there is a famine, they will also open porridge sheds to help the victims. Therefore, the reputation among the mortals of Jingtianmen is very good. ”

Liu Gewen nodded, he didn't expect Jingtianmen's reputation to be so good. If this is really the case, will they secretly steal the inheritance of other people's families? Is it Liu Mingping's misanalysis? Or is it that the people of Jingtianmen are all sanctimonious?

Although there was some delay on the road, with three horses, Liu Gewen and his party hurried faster, and they came to a small village just after dark. Fortunately, the people in the village did not run out, and many houses still had faint lights.

The village is very small, and Liu Xing and his party looked for the only inn in the village when they didn't have many people. The courtyard of the inn is in tatters, several rooms look like they are about to collapse, the big dog and the second dog both shook their heads after seeing it, can people really live here?

Liu Xing saw their thoughts and said, "Now that the war is in chaos, it would be good to have a room that can shelter from the wind and rain." ”

Liu Gewen also said: "Yes, it's much better than us sleeping in the wilderness these days." ”

The young master said so, and the eldest dog and the second dog didn't say anything, so they led the horse into the hospital. But when they tied up the horses and put the cart, there was no shopkeeper to welcome them.

Liu Xing walked into the inn in front, and Liu Gewen and others followed. After walking in, I saw a skinny old man sitting on the counter. He had white hair, a deeply wrinkled face, tattered clothes, and sat there listless, with a sallow face, and he looked like he hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time.

Liu Xing stepped forward and said, "Brother is the shopkeeper?"

The old man looked at Liu Xing and the others, and said weakly: "I'm not a shopkeeper, this shop was opened by my son, and their family fled and ran away, so I stayed to help them look at the shop." ”

Ergouzi said angrily: "Your son's family is too unfilial, and he won't take you with him when he flees." ”

The old man hurriedly said, "Little brother, don't wronged my son! It's not that he doesn't take me, it's that he doesn't want to go." I'm so old, how can I withstand the bumps along the way, I can't go far and die on the road, it's better to die in my own home. ”

Liu Xing didn't want to argue with the old man about this, and said, "What do you call the old brother?"

The old man said: "The old child's surname is Gao, and everyone calls me Lao Gaotou." What do you call the old gentleman?"

Liu Xing said: "My surname is Liu. Brother Gao, do you still have a room here?"

The old man said, "There is still a room, you can live as you like." However, the junior and the chef who ran the hall all ran away, and there was no one to serve a few, so they could only take care of themselves if they needed anything. ”

"How much is a night?" Liu Xing asked again.

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "This army is in chaos, and it is useless to ask for money." A few people who have food can share a little bit with me. ”

Liu Xing frowned when he heard this, and said, "Brother Gao, we are also fleeing, and we don't have much food on us, I don't know if there is any food sold in the village?"

The old man shook his head and said: "The people who are still in the village are all half-buried old guys, all of whom have eaten the last meal but have not eaten the next meal, how can they still have surplus grain to buy outside." ”

Seeing Liu Xing's ugly face, the old man continued: "But it's okay, the house is empty anyway, a few people live casually, it doesn't matter." ”

Liu Xing thought for a while and said, "Brother, we have fought some beasts and some meat along the way, if you haven't eaten yet, eat some with us." Tomorrow, before we leave, how about fighting the beast and leaving you the money for the store?"

When the old man heard that there was meat to eat, his eyes immediately flashed green, and he smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Liu Xing asked the big dog to clean up a few better rooms, and he and the second dog went to the back kitchen to get food. Liu Gewen chose a quieter and cleaner room by himself, let the big dog clean up briefly, and after releasing a few more vigilant eyes, he rested inside.
