Chapter 144: Restaurant Scandal
At this time, the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the master and apprentice hurriedly walked into the restaurant and chose a pair of window seats on the second floor to sit down.
Yuwenchen Yinian and Shangguan Ruoling were seriously injured and had not recovered, so as soon as he sat down, he warmed up a pot of brown sugar ginger tea, and as for the dishes, he was completely unfamiliar with them, so Shangguan Ruoling was in charge and ordered a pot of stewed bamboo spirit mice.
Perhaps because of the cold weather, the business of the restaurant is very cold, and there are only four or five tables of guests sitting on the empty floor, which is particularly deserted.
The master and apprentice didn't care, they were waiting for the food to be served, and the conversation of the guests at the next table attracted their attention, it was a large round table, and four swordsmen were sitting around, these people were wearing fur leather clothes, and their waists were spanning steel knives, and they were drinking and chatting.
A young swordsman said: "I heard that the monk Lingguang of Lei Yin Temple caught two fox demons in the city a few days ago, and I don't know if they are true or not. ”
Sitting next to him was a middle-aged swordsman with a blind right eye, and said: "Of course it's true, the streets and alleys of this Xizhou city have spread, what kind of identity is the Venerable Lingguang, as long as the demon touches him, there will be nothing to hide." ”
Another swordsman with gray hair said: "That's natural, the Venerable Lingguang is a high-ranking monk, and it is natural to clean up the two fox demons, and I heard that these two fox demons are a male and a female, originally a pair, and have cultivated into a human form." ”
A tall and thin man sitting next to him took a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing and saying, "That's not all, let me tell you, the fox demon is a family of three, living in Zhujia Lane in the west of the city, opening a shop there to make a living, and my daughter-in-law also went to their shop to buy cloth!"
"Are you saying that the 'Chen Ji Buzhuang' in Zhujia Lane was opened by those three fox demons?!" the gray-haired man shouted with surprise on his face.
"Lao Yao, you're right, it's that Chen Ji Cloth Village, hehe, I can't think of it!" After the tall and thin man finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, and made a "swoop" sound in his mouth.
The gray-haired swordsman Lao Yao, after listening to the thin and tall man's words, smacked his tongue for a while, "My good man, this fox demon is so bold, he dares to swagger through the market, if he wasn't caught by the Venerable Lingguang, who would have thought of it!"
The tall and thin swordsman nodded and said: "Who said no, these three fox demons, on weekdays, transformed into human form, look obedient and gentle, and look like a child, who would have thought that they were fox demons, if it weren't for them stealing babies and refining demons, they were subdued by the Venerable Master with Buddhism, I don't know how many babies will be poisoned!"
"Lao Qin, do you mean that the uproar in the city about the theft of babies was the hand of those three fox demons?" The young swordsman was picking a piece of meat from the vegetable bowl, and when he heard his words, he was taken aback, and his hand trembled, and the piece of meat on the chopsticks almost fell on the table.
Lao Qin, a tall and slender swordsman, snorted, and said: "This is what the Venerable Master Lingguang said personally when he surrendered the three fox demons in Chen Ji Buzhuang, I was there at the time, and I heard it clearly, do you think, can the words of the Buddhist monks be false!"
When he said this, he paused, picked up his wine glass, took a sip of wine, and said, "The Venerable Master Lingguang said that these three fox demons, using the essence of babies as a guide, refining demon arts, have killed hundreds of babies in just half a year! It's a pity that one of them escaped. ”
Yuwen Chenyi and Yue Lingxi heard the conversation of several swordsmen, and they were all surprised, looking at each other, looking at each other, only listening to the middle-aged swordsman who was blind in one right eye, and said: "This is called many acts of injustice, you will kill yourself, the demon race is different, brutal and ferocious, even if the disguise is good, sooner or later there will be a current day." ”
"Phew, who said that the baby theft incident in the city was done by the fox demon, did you see it with your own eyes!"
As soon as the blind swordsman's words came out, they heard a cold snort behind them, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy sitting in the distance of three or four tables.
Yuwen Chenyi was listening to what these swordsmen said with relish, and suddenly heard the young man's crisp cold snort, and when he looked up, he couldn't help but be stunned, thinking: "There is such a beautiful young man in this world?"
This young man is sixteen or seventeen years old, with delicate and handsome facial features, wearing a pure white fox fur, with a slender figure, fair and delicate complexion, and on the palm of his hand, which is as white as Haoyu, he is holding a white jade fan, waving gently, and the jade pendant on the handle of the fan, following the wave of his arm, keeps shaking from side to side, which is very good-looking.
Where can I use a fan in such a cold weather, this young man didn't know what the way to come, several swordsmen saw that he was gorgeously dressed and talented, and they didn't dare to underestimate him, ignored his words, each picked up his wine glass, touched it, and was about to drink it in one gulp.
But I heard the young man say again: "If you want to talk about evil, human beings are a hundred times more evil than the demon race, how many people in this world, in order to achieve their own goals, unscrupulous means, behave in a way, which is not to do everything!"
When Yuwen Chenyi heard the young man's words, he thought of the behavior and style of Ming Chongyan's group of onmyoji, and thought to himself, what the young man said was also somewhat reasonable, but what kind of 'demon' this 'demon' was, he had never seen it, and he didn't dare to jump to conclusions.
After the gray-haired swordsman Lao Yao heard the young man's words, he said with a gloomy face: "What you said from this young man is so strange, that demon alien is changed by animals, how can it be compared with the human who is the primate of all things!"
The white jade fan in the handsome young man's hand 'snapped', and said with a disdainful face: "Phew, what is the primate of all things, human beings are just frogs at the bottom of the well, deceiving themselves, the Buddha said: All beings are equal, all things have spirits, who dares to claim to be the primate of all things!"
His voice was crisp and loud, and the diners eating in the inn could hear it clearly, and all eyes immediately shot into his face.
The one-eyed swordsman, hearing his words, his face changed color, and he said to the swordsman Lao Qin: "Lao Qin, did you say that a fox demon escaped?"
When the swordsman Lao Qin heard his words for no reason, he said with some confusion: "Yes, that Chen Ji Buzhuang was originally two big and one small and three fox demons, and when he led his disciples to subdue them, the two old ones tried their best to protect the small one, so they let it escape." ”
The one-eyed swordsman said: "I think this kid has eight achievements because of that fox demon!"
The swordsman Lao Qin shook his head and said: "Impossible, the little fox demon who escaped is a female, but this young man is obviously a man, sixth brother, have you drunk too much." ”
The one-eyed sixth said: "What's impossible, this kid has red lips and white teeth, and is generally carved in pink and jade, if he changes into women's clothes, he will be a handsome little girl, even if it is the top brand of Yihong Courtyard, it is not as good as her half of her toes." ”
The gray-haired swordsman Lao Yao also stood up at this time, pointed to the young man's neck and said, "The sixth is right, you see that there is no Adam's apple on his neck, I think this kid is a chick!"
