Chapter 29: A wave of unsettled waves rises again and again
Zuo Tianyou returned to the back kitchen suspiciously, put down the tray, and sat on the edge of the stove with a solemn face.
He didn't know that Jing Huan hadn't left Qinghuan City at all, but Jing Huan's eyes made him feel a strong uneasiness. Zuo Tianyou's mind was full of the figures he had met in the past two days, and he wanted to compare them one by one to figure out who was sitting outside. However, everyone's impression is quite vague, and it is difficult to determine which one must be which.
The subordinates who are seeking revenge for Hou Qi, Jing Huan and Sikong Ren, and Xiao Nizi who is looking for fault in Ling'an Xian's shop, all have motives, but they are all unlikely. Zuo Tianyou combed through everything he had experienced in the past two days from the beginning in his mind, but he didn't find any flaws.
Could it be that he was seeking revenge in the past? It is also impossible, because this look feels very familiar to me recently, and it does not look like an enemy in the past.
Lao Wu was busy for a while, and when he saw that Zuo Tianyou's face was not quite right, he asked: "What's the matter?
was reminded by Lao Wuyi, Zuo Tianyou came back to his senses and said, "No, they all came to drink fairy grass tea." There was a strange guest who kept staring at people. ”
Lao Wu smiled when he heard this, and said, "Many of our guests here can't tell their origins, and they themselves are secretive, for fear that someone will find out his whereabouts." These people are highly vigilant, and it is nothing to take a look at you. ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xiaopang also came in, ran to Zuo Tianyou's side, and muttered in his ear: "There is a person outside who is always staring at me." You go check it out. I don't think it's good. ”
Zuo Tianyou felt that Lao Wu was reasonable, but he had to have no ghosts in his heart to feel that it was not a problem, and now he was carrying spirit crystals and magic weapons in his space, and he couldn't help but feel furious when he was stared at.
Zuo Tianyou was very curious when he heard that Zhang Xiaopang was also being targeted, and walked to the door with Zhang Xiaopang, lifted a curtain, and looked towards the lobby. ”
Zuo Tianyou looked in the direction that Zhang Xiaopang said, and found that it was the same person that they didn't feel right.
"Hey, do you see what's going on? The man flipped over the water card and ordered a soul-nourishing herb tea. Zhang Xiaopang continued to babble in Zuo Tianyou's ear.
Linxian Inn lobby on both sides of the place placed a huge wooden screen, hung with a variety of fairy grass tea and food water cards, after the guests sit down, after looking at the tea name or dish name on the water card of the day, want to order something to tell the buddy, this process of ordering is called the water card here.
Lao Wu heard that a guest had ordered something, and he didn't care about eating the dinner he had just made, so he was busy rummaging through the vegetable shelves to find soul-nourishing grass.
Zuo Tianyou watched Lao Wu rummaging through the cabinets to find the soul nourishing grass, and he couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart.
"Old Wu, isn't the soul nourishing grass an extremely cold herb? Who usually wants to drink tea made from this grass?" Zuo Tianyou knew that Lao Wu had been cooking for a long time, and he was very familiar with the pharmacology of these fairy grasses and herbs.
"The Soul Nourishing Grass is indeed cold and cold, unless there is a heat poison in the body that cannot be discharged, or the tendons and veins are injured and the true qi cannot function, there are not many people who drink this tea normally. Lao Wu thought for a while and replied.
"What would an ordinary cultivator do if they drank this tea?" Zuo Tianyou asked further.
Lao Wu shook his head: "Who will drink this well." If there is nothing on the body and you drink the soul nourishing grass, you will reduce your cultivation a little, and at worst, you will seal the true qi in your body. Who do you think you're going to get along with!"
Zhang Xiaopang listened to it on the side, and also interjected: "Soul Nourishing Grass? The name is very nourishing, the medicinal properties are so strong! Is the one outside injured? It doesn't look like it." As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked at it.
Zuo Tianyou was also puzzled: "That person really doesn't look like he was injured, but how can he see the hot poison in his body." Old Wu, how should this tea be brewed?"
Lao Wu opened the small drawers on the herbal medicine cabinet and rummaged through them, and replied, "Just brew it with hot water." Did the guest say anything? There are also people who want to boil on the fire, so that the medicinal properties will be greater, and if there is a little bit of Kuitou fruit in it, even if the person has a samadhi fire in his stomach, he can also extinguish it. ”
Kuitou fruit is the hair of the fairy herb, mainly used to stimulate the effect of the herb, it is easy to buy on the market, like the inn, the tea shop will be prepared to some extent, in order to improve the effect of tea, attract guests to come back.
Of course, Linxian Inn never does such a business, but the store will also prepare some, because there are always some special herbs that need to be made to improve the effect, this is the saying in the serious "Herb Sutra", Lao Wu has always done according to the prescription, not for the treacherous business.
Zuo Tianyou rarely saw Lao Wu's exaggerated words, and couldn't help but be happy, and said with a smile: "The next time I see anyone who dares to sprinkle in the store, I will cook him a bowl of soul-nourishing grass and kuitou fruit, which also saves the shopkeeper the trouble of going up and down." ”
Lao Wu listened to it and was happy.
Zhang Xiaopang even claimed that it was. He called this inn and was bullied by all kinds of things, and he had a belly full of fire for a long time, Zuo Tianyou said such nonsense, and he almost clapped his hands for his thoughts.
After chatting for a long time, Zuo Tianyou felt that the time was not early, and there were still guests in front of him, so he pulled Zhang Xiaopang back to the lobby to serve the guests.
At this time, in the lobby of the Linxian Inn, although it was not full of people, it was also very lively, and the guests at the table drank tea and chatted, talking about cultivation, sects and magic weapons, and the shopkeeper Zhou was also shuttling back and forth in it, perfunctory with a smile on his face.
Zuo Tianyou and Zhang Xiaopang each had a teapot, turning around one table after another to pour tea.
Jing Huan sat alone at a table, drinking tea, while looking at Zuo Tianyou, how do you think this young guy has a ghost, just now he just stared at Zuo Tianyou's face, he looked uncomfortable, turned around and left the lobby, very suspicious. But there is no evidence that they were the ones who went to the guest room that night to steal, and it is useless to suspect it.
However, Jing Huan felt a true air flow from Zuo Tianyou's dantian when Zuo Tianyou was approaching, which made him feel very strange. After all, when he had an argument with Sikong Ren and the two of them that night, this young man's internal strength was still very weak, and he basically couldn't feel the existence of the true qi in his body.
Zuo Tianyou hadn't started to take pills to cultivate since he came back from the Ling'an Immortal Shop, but the refining of the well water had drained all the dirt around him, so that the spiritual energy in the spiritual crystal he had absorbed before flowed smoothly in his body, and the air flow emitted by the high-purity spiritual energy in the dantian would make some higher-level monks notice.
The teacups on a few tables were not yet full, and another person came to the door, Zuo Tianyou hurriedly put down the teapot in his hand and walked straight to the person, thinking that the business was too good tonight, and the money was rolling.
But as soon as he walked to him, Zuo Tianyou's footsteps froze, and his body almost froze there.
It was none other than Sikong Ren, who had left not long ago.
This Sikong Ren was still dressed that night, but he was angry, as if he was coming to seek revenge.
Zuo Tianyou retreated, thinking to himself why he came? Didn't he leave in the middle of the night? Did he know something? Found me and Chubby stealing the contents of his storage bag?
Zuo Tianyou's heartbeat was obviously accelerating, and he didn't know what Sikong Ren was going to do next.
Sikong Ren can also be regarded as a master in the Qi refining layer, but it is not comparable to the mischievous little girl in the Ling'an Immortal Shop, if this guy gets angry and starts to move, it will be no problem to pinch a few Zuo Tianyou to death. At that time, unless there is a powerful immortal to show up to help, there will be no way to live at all!
Zuo Tianyou looked at Sikong Ren's face intently, and found that this guy seemed to be looking for someone, so he didn't look at him much, glanced around the lobby, and walked straight towards a table, Zuo Tianyou looked in the direction and found that Si Kongren's target was the guy who was wearing a mask and staring at Zuo Tianyou and Zhang Xiaopang.
