Fulai Inn, a small inn next to the official road, is located close to Kangling City, but anyone who comes to Kangling City from other places must first pass through here, and when you see an inn here, you will inevitably rise to the idea of coming in to rest, so although the inn is not in the lively city, but chooses to be in the suburbs, it does not affect its business. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The innkeeper's surname is Sun, his name is Chengxuan, an old man who is more than half a hundred years old, and it was his proposal to build the inn in the suburbs, and under his management, the inn is impressive and prosperous. His age does not mean that he is confused, because, from the establishment of the inn to the present, he has been working part-time as a bookkeeper, remembering the account books in an orderly manner and never making mistakes.

In addition to him, there were two cooks and five men in the inn. The chef is responsible for cooking, while the buddy is responsible for greeting customers, cleaning, washing vegetables, and a series of other menial tasks.

On this day, a large group of people came to the inn, and those people were also old customers, who were familiar with this place, so they directly found a spacious place to sit down, and one of the men with a rough face said directly and loudly: "Little Er!"

"Hey, here we are!" replied an idle fellow at the counter, trotting over to them. This fellow is the youngest of the five fellows, only thirteen years old, an orphan, originally became a beggar begging for food in Kangling, but once he was seen by Sun Chengxuan, who entered the city, felt pitiful, and because he lacked a buddy, so he let him be his own buddy, help the business of the store, take care of accommodation and food. The young man was naturally very happy, and without thinking about it, he followed Sun Chengxuan to the Fulai Inn as a buddy.

The boy trotted over to the gang, handed over a menu, and waited for them to order.

"Hmm...... The four seasons are fragrant, the dragon and phoenix are auspicious, the red-billed green warbler and pigeon, the gold and silver mezzanine flowers are cut off, the honey-stuffed cockles, the soft beef intestines are ......" The rough-faced man flipped through the menu at will, ordered a lot of signature dishes here, and the boy hurriedly wrote them down one by one with a pen on the side, so as not to forget.

The man then handed the menu to the people next to him and asked them to order whatever they wanted. One of the lean men ordered an extra dish of West Lake whitebait soup, and the boy wrote it down, and when they had finished, the boy went to the kitchen and reported the dishes they had ordered to the cook.

"There is no more whitebait soup in West Lake. One of the fatter chefs said, "This dish has sold out this morning." ”

The boy was stunned, wrote it down, and then went to tell the guest who ordered the dish.

"The West Lake whitebait soup is gone. The boy walked up to the rough-looking man and spoke.

"No, Lao Tzu took my friend out to eat, but you can't even cook the dishes, where do you ask Lao Tzu to put his face, do you think Lao Tzu looks like a man who is short of money?" the man said angrily, very dissatisfied with the young man's words.

The young man was depressed and said in a low voice: "There is no silverfish soup in West Lake, there are others." ”

"No, the West Lake whitebait soup must be made, otherwise we won't eat it. The man gave an ultimatum.

The boy looked at a loss for what to do, and went back to the kitchen to tell the fat chef what had just happened.

"It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, and we can't make it without ingredients. The fat chef said.

When the other cook heard this, he said to the boy, "Why don't you go and ask the shopkeeper about this?"

Hearing this, the young man could only go to Sun Chengxuan. This Sun Chengxuan is the brainchild of the entire inn, and he usually finds a way to solve anything, so they can only think of going to Sun Chengxuan for something like this today.

The young man found Sun Chengxuan and told him about the incident, and after Sun Chengxuan heard it, he nodded slightly and said, "Xiaojie, I may have to trouble you as an errand." ”

The young man's name is Roger, and after listening to Sun Chengxuan's words, Yi Jie was stunned, he didn't know what Sun Chengxuan's words meant.

I saw Sun Chengxuan with a smile on his face and came to the side of the group of guests, and Roger followed closely.

"What are the guests dissatisfied with about this store?" asked Sun Chengxuan with a smile on his face.

"Of course I'm not satisfied, Lao Tzu brought his friends to dinner, Lao Tzu's friends asked for West Lake whitebait soup, but you didn't have it, where do you tell Lao Tzu to put his face, do you think Lao Tzu looks like a person who is short of money?" said the man with a rough face.

Several of the people he brought with him looked embarrassed, trying to explain that it had nothing to do with me, but they were too embarrassed to speak.

Sun Chengxuan's smile did not change, and explained: "Guest officer, here's the thing, the whitebait soup you ordered in the West Lake, the whitebait was sold out this morning, if you really need it, we can also go to the market immediately to buy it for you." ”

Although this rough-looking man was rude, Sun Chengxuan didn't want to lose such a rich customer, so he had the idea of going to the market again to buy whitebait, which was not too far from the market, and half an hour back and forth was enough. The man came with a large group of drinkers, and he must not have been able to drink them all in an hour, and this half hour had no effect on them. Moreover, there is no silver soup in West Lake, which does not affect the serving of other dishes.

The man nodded, he thought that the shopkeeper's attitude was okay, and if he continued to be rude, I was afraid that he would really lose face in front of his friends.

"Well, as long as you serve this dish before our brother finishes drinking, I won't be as knowledgeable as you. The man spoke, "You go up to the ten jars and the best wine." ”

Sun Chengxuan smiled and said, "Okay!" and then turned his head and told Roger to go to the backyard to get some fine wine.

After receiving the order, Roger turned his head and ran to the backyard, and after a while, he came over with two jars of wine in his arms, handed them to the rough-looking man, and said, "Ten jars of wine are too many, I have to divide them many times to finish it." The man didn't mind, as soon as the wine came up, he was happy.

Roger ran back and forth five times before he brought ten jars of wine. After seeing that Roger finished serving the wine, Sun Chengxuan called Roger to his side and said, "Xiaojie, about the whitebait, I ask you to go to the market to buy it." ”

Roger nodded, he felt that this kind of thing should be done by him.

Sun Chengxuan turned back, took out some silver taels from the counter, handed them to Roger, and gave a few more orders, Roger remembered Sun Chengxuan's requirements one by one, and then walked out of the inn quickly, walking towards Kang Ling City on the avenue.

At this time, there were not many guests in the inn, in addition to the rough man's table, there were two or three tables, and the four guys were completely busy coming, and Sun Chengxuan would shoot Roger to go to the market to buy whitebait.

Roger trotted all the way, humming a little song that only he could understand, and after leaving the inn for a short distance, Roger came to a fork in the road, saying that it was a fork in the road, it was just a small road, compared to the avenue, this trail was full of dangers, there would be some poisonous insects and other things on the road, and there would be a cliff here, if you accidentally fall, you may even lose your life. However, this trail is close to the market, and if you are in a hurry, you will save yourself a lot of time by passing through this trail.

Without the slightest hesitation, Roger turned his head and ran down the trail. First, he has been in Kangling City since he was a child, and he is no longer familiar with everything in the vicinity, and the dangerous trails that may appear are only for outsiders, and it is impossible for him, a local, to be dangerous;

Walking through the dense woods and over the steep rock face, Roger came to the most risky cliff and was about to go over, when suddenly he heard a voice talking in front of him, Roger was puzzled, he stood where he was, and did not immediately walk over.

I only heard one person in front of me say, "Senior brother, why did you bring me to this place?" another voice replied, "Senior brother, don't you think this is a good place?"

The first voice before wondered, "Why do you say that?"

"It's clean, few people pass by, and there's a cliff below, don't you think it's a good place to kill people and destroy corpses?"

After hearing this voice, Roger instantly felt a little cold, so frightened that he hurriedly found a big stone, hid behind the stone, and then quietly raised his little head and secretly looked ahead, two men dressed in the same clothes appeared in front of him, one of the men said, "Senior brother, what are you going to do?"

The man who was called Senior Brother sneered and said, "Senior Brother, if you want to blame it, you shouldn't have seen this." With that, a flying sword appeared out of thin air in the man's hand, pointing at his junior brother.

The junior brother's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly explained, "Senior brother, I won't tell anyone. ”

The senior brother sneered and said, "I only believe that dead people don't tell the truth." ”

As he spoke, he had words in his mouth, pinched the trick with one hand, and the flying sword flew out of his hand in an instant, attacking the junior brother, the junior brother was shocked, his body flashed, and he dodged the attack of the flying sword, and at the same time said loudly: "Senior brother, believe me, I won't tell the truth." ”

"Senior brother, it's not that senior brother doesn't believe you, but that matter is too important and must not be known to anyone, so you must die. The senior brother's face was gloomy, and his hands quickly pinched the trick, looking like he would not stop until he killed the junior brother.

Roger, who was hiding behind the stones, was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat at this time, and he didn't dare to make any sound, for fear of being noticed by the two people in front of him.

The junior brother found that no matter how he explained it, the senior brother killed him, and he fell silent for a moment, and then said angrily: "Cao Yong, if I, Xiao Ke, don't die today, I will definitely expose your ugly things to the entire cultivation world." He was very sad and angry, and he accidentally bumped into his brother's affair with his wife, and he thought that he would be killed.

Xiao Ke took out a rune from his bosom and put it on his foot. He took out another rune and threw it at Cao Yong, saying in his mouth, "Burst!" The rune quickly burned in the air, and then exploded.

Taking advantage of the moment when the explosion produced a large amount of smoke, Xiao Ke fled in the opposite direction of Cao Yong's place, the speed was so amazing that with Roger's naked eye, he could hardly be seen.

However, before he could take a few steps, a flying sword attacked him at an even faster speed, striking his body from behind and piercing his body, leaving Xiao Ke with a look of disbelief and a large mouthful of blood.
