The moonlight is getting thicker, the sky is exceptionally quiet on the winter night, the pedestrians on the road are nowhere to be seen, only two or three stray cats are still wandering around, as if they are hiding from the cold of the winter night, looking for a warm haven.

In the inn where Wang Mu was located, the door was open, and two pots of charcoal were burning inside, so that the whole inn was in a warm current. Wang Mu and Zhao Qi were eating dinner in the lobby of the inn. They need to break through in three months, Zhao Qi and Gao Que have already given up, they think that Wang Mu will help them, and they have already regarded this three months as an outing.

Especially Zhao Qi, the family was originally a rich man, he was like a prince at home, since he came to the Lingtai Sect, he has been light and nourishing his heart every day, cultivating the avenue, and now he is coming out, and he wants to experience the original feeling again.

I don't know when there was an old man next to the counter, and the old man kept making calculations on the counter, calculating whether the inn was profitable.

"Uncle Shi, he's been peeking at us!" Lu Yuanfang whispered, pointing to the shopkeeper.

Zhao Qi's face became a little angry when he heard this, but he didn't realize it: "He seems to want to be unfavorable to us, I'll abolish him!"

Wang Mu stopped him and said, "Forget it, he may be curious, after all, it's this day, but we are eating downstairs!"

It was already midnight now, and Wang Mu and the others went to the lobby downstairs to feel the atmosphere of the world after a tired day's rest. It turns out that the world is not brightly lit, but quiet.

"Uncle Shi here doesn't have the feeling of not returning all night as you said, I see that there is no one on the road, except for his accident, even the people who live here go to rest early, let's rest early!" Gao Que said, he didn't see Wang Mu said that the crowd was busy at night, and he felt a little bored, and wanted to go back to his room to rest.

"Senior brother, don't worry, I already feel an extremely strong yin qi, it seems that we have a good show to watch!" Zhao Qi's cultivation was the highest among the four, if Wang Mu didn't practice those three exercises, even if he was in the early stage of qi refining, he would not be able to fight with Zhao Qi. In terms of cultivation alone, Zhao Qi is the strongest cultivation among the four, but Wang Mu has mastered many forbidden techniques, and his combat power is the most fierce among the four.

The shopkeeper is a member of the Wang family, and was instructed by the head of the Wang family to inquire about the purpose of these guests, today was a little two on duty at night, but after he saw that the head of the house said about the people, let the little two go to rest, he came to the night, so that the little two who were a little stunned felt whether he hadn't woken up, and slapped his two mouths fiercely, before muttering "The head of the black-hearted shopkeeper is in the water" and left.

A cold wind blew in, the shopkeeper felt the cold, and after seeing the four people who were still drinking tea, he got up and walked to the door, ready to close, and now there are no guests coming to stay in the hotel this day.

was about to close the door, when suddenly a wrinkled hand was placed in front of him, blocking his movements, and a voice like sand sounded: "Shopkeeper, the old man wants to stay in the store!"

The shopkeeper saw that in the shadow outside the door, an old man who looked like an old bark was standing at the door with a hat on his back, the old man's eyes were white, and a few teeth were lost.

"You, do you have any money?" the shopkeeper swallowed a mouthful of saliva to relieve the tension in his heart, "If you don't have any money, leave quickly, there is a ruined temple over there, you can go and rest!"

The old man fumbled in his arms for a while, took out a gold ingot, put it in the shopkeeper's hand, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Do you know what this is?"

"Gold!" The shopkeeper's eyes emitted golden light, today is really lucky, first the head of the house said that the guest gave a ingot, although the old man is not very well dressed, but the shot is so generous!

"Guest officer, please come inside!" the shopkeeper put the gold in his arms and said with a smile, "You can live as long as you want!"

The shopkeeper invited the old man into the inn, and then looked outside, the dark night, the cold wind gusted, he closed the door, and said to the old man who walked straight forward: "Guest officer, I'll take you to the best room!"

The old man waved his hand first and said, "Don't worry, I still have a companion who hasn't arrived, I'll wait for him here for a while." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then said slowly: "Yes, you wait first!"

"This person has a demonic aura on his body, but it is not a yin qi, are you mistaken!" Gao Que had doubts in his eyes, although he couldn't cultivate, but he saw that the old man only had demonic qi but no yin qi.

Wang Mu couldn't feel anything, but found that the old man had a special smell, some like the smell of burnt wood.

The old man sat down and looked at Wang Mu and his party, the corners of his mouth showed a smile but not a smile, and then he picked up the water cup on the table and poured himself a glass of water.

"It's really arrogant!" Zhao Qi sneered, "It's really looking for death, others don't know his identity, I don't know yet?

Zhao Qi said that he was about to make a move on the old man, Wang Mu hurriedly grabbed Zhao Qi and whispered: "Look first, doesn't he still have companions, our worldly trials, maybe the opportunity is here!"

Zhao Qi sat back in his seat, picked up the cup angrily and took a sip of water, but Lu Yuanfang and Gao Que didn't feel this way. Wang Mu looked at the old man with playfulness, and when the old man looked over, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, revealing a smile.

The old man suddenly felt a beat in his heart, something was wrong, his smile was like a sharp sword to mortals, making people feel scared, why didn't these people feel a little bit?

After a while, a middle-aged man with a sharp voice pushed open the door from outside and walked in: "Such a big place in the city, I have to find this remote place, I really don't know what you think." ”

The shopkeeper saw that it seemed that the people outside were talking to the old man in the inn, and then went over to greet him, and saw a middle-aged man with white hair walking in with a sinister smile.

The middle-aged man walked to the shopkeeper's side, sniffed it deeply, and then showed an expression of enjoyment, and pursed the corners of his mouth, as if he saw delicious food, which made the shopkeeper feel cold for a while, this person will not have a habit of breaking sleeves, right?

The middle-aged man walked to the old man's table, sat down and looked at the old man with a mocking smile and said, "Why, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have found another one? It's not as good as the last time I saw it, you are going back more and more!"

Wang Mu looked at the middle-aged man with a smile in his eyes, and he felt the same aura from the middle-aged man's body as the old zombie and the last time he saw it, and it made people feel cold in their spirits.
