Chapter 165: The Twin Saints Inn
"Guest officer, how many are you?" As soon as he entered the inn, a fat shopkeeper greeted him, and he was very enthusiastic.
"Shopkeeper, why is your inn so deserted, you don't even have a shopkeeper, I'll just be alone, just give me a quiet room. Chen Mu replied.
The shopkeeper smiled helplessly, "I won't tell you, the store has not had outsiders to move in for a year, because it is close to the market, there are often some nights that do not have time to go home to the people of the village temporarily, that little room fee barely maintains the cost of the store, but unfortunately it is still not enough to hire people to take care of it, only I personally sit on the stage." ”
While speaking, the shopkeeper had led Chen Mu to a guest room in the corner of the second floor, and a musty smell came when he pushed the door, but after opening the window, the whole room took on a new look, neat, bright and extremely spacious, and from the window you could just see a verdant hill with several huge stone pillars on it, but unlike other hills, there were no wooden houses built to live in, and it seemed that it was slightly steep around it and not suitable for habitation.
"How does this fighter feel? This is the most beautiful and secluded wing room outside the window of our store. The shopkeeper said with a grin, and it seemed that he was very confident in this room.
"Okay, I'll stay here. Prepare me some more local food. Chen Mu said and sat beside the bed, staring at the verdant hills that felt a little strange.
"Guest officer, you really have a vision, legend has it that in ancient times, the two Dou Shengs born in our Dou Sheng's country have lived in this room, and it is precisely because of this that this room can be used as the signboard of this 'Double Saint Inn', attracting guests from all over the world to come and stay. You ......"
"Shopkeeper, if you have something to say, you don't have to be bothered. Chen Mu was still observing the hill.
"Can you pay a deposit first? Because this room is expensive, the rule of the store is that whoever stays must pay a deposit for seven days. ”
"Room fee?" Chen Mu came to his senses, only to find that he didn't seem to have a spirit stone to pay for the room.
"How many spirit stones do you need for seven days?" Chen Mu replied stiffly.
"Spirit stone? What is this? Our store does not accept stones, only green crystals. To give you a discount, only ten first-grade green crystals, or one second-grade green crystal. The shopkeeper's tone was already a little wrong, as if he was about to decide that Chen Mu was a poor ghost.
Chen Mu didn't know what the green crystal was, he only had the green crystal from the head of the horned beast before. Chances are, this is the thing.
But at this moment, he didn't want to ask the shopkeeper what the first-level green crystal looked like, so he could only touch the storage iron plate and take out the smallest green crystal inside.
Without saying a word, he showed it to the shopkeeper. Wait for his reaction.
"This is a third-level green crystal! Look at this smoothness, it must be a naturally formed thing in the horned beast's body, and it is more valuable than the third-level green crystal mined in the mining cave in the village! You, you wait for me to calculate!" The shopkeeper was extremely excited and clenched the green crystal. I lowered my head and didn't know what was in my mouth.
"Gladiator-sama. You can stay here for two months, all meals are included!
Chen Mu looked at the shopkeeper in a little surprise, thinking that it was really right to keep this green crystal in the first place, and other larger green crystals might be worth a fortune, maybe they could exchange them for some valuable treasures here.
"All right, go down, and don't bother me without my call. Chen Mu replied stiffly, no matter where he was. Money still plays a big role.
"In Xia Chunxi, I live in the house behind the counter. You're always calling. I would also like to remind you that you must not open the window at night, and do not look out of the window, there is no danger in staying in the house. After saying that, the shopkeeper named Chunxi left the house, looking extremely respectful.
The more he said this, the more curious Chen Mu became, he wanted to see what would happen when he looked out the window at night.
After a while, it suddenly darkened, and Chen Mu closed the window according to the shopkeeper's arrangement.
It is not the fall of the three suns of hell, but the darkness caused by the cessation of the glow of the guardian light array here, which is similar to the alternation of day and night in the human world.
This night, Chen Mu has been sitting in front of the window, motionless looking at the street outside the window and the hills in the distance, there are candlelight from some houses, and everything outside does not look dark and terrifying.
In this way, it soon ushered in the process of dawn, there was no sunrise, and when the time came, it suddenly dawned.
"Lord Fighter, it's time to eat, and I've made you the ten most famous dishes in the village!" Chun Xi called downstairs, not loudly, and did not repeat the call, for fear of arguing with Chen Mu, a distinguished guest.
Chen Mu happened to have something to ask the shopkeeper, so he didn't politely follow the shopkeeper directly to the hall on the first floor, where an ancient wooden round table that could accommodate twenty people was full of food, which seemed to be very delicious.
However, more than half of the dishes are strange insects, and Chen Mu is not taboo about them, and has repeatedly praised the unique taste.
"Chunxi, why do the locals like to eat insects?" asked Chen Mu as he ate.
"The tradition left by the ancestors, these insects are artificially fed, there are two hills in the west that specialize in producing all kinds of insects, the legend can provide enough energy for the village qi practitioners, and advance to the Dou Sheng, after all, the meat of those horned beasts is very expensive, and the average villager can't afford to eat it at all, and every time the village organizes people to hunt and bring it back, there are not many. This time, the village chief personally went out to bring back more horned beast meat with the Sumeru ring that only he could use. ”
"How powerful are the qi cultivators in your village, can they all use their fighting qi?"
"You can ask the right person, our village's qi practitioners are the main force guarding the village, their bodies can produce the fighting spirit you said, the strong hurt people in the air, and it is not a problem to lift thousands of catties. A strong body like you, we are all called fighters, although they are different from ordinary people, but they are the most ordinary among the qi practitioners, there are fighters above the fighters, and there are fighters above the fighters, and the fighters are the pride of our human race!"
Although the division of Dou Qi here was completely different from the division of several periods that Chen Mu had heard before, he didn't care too much, the different paths were the same, the stronger the control of Dou Qi, the higher the natural realm, and there seemed to be an essential difference from the advancement of mana cultivation.
"Then do you know how a fighter can advance to a fighter, and how does a fighter advance to a fighter?" Chen Mu asked casually after eating all the food, patting his stomach.
"Of course I do!"
"Huh?" Chen Mu, who had just asked casually, immediately listened seriously.
"There is a huge hill called Qingling Hill in the middle, and there is a well-preserved Dou Sheng's Hall on it, and the Holy Master in it has a very high status in the village. Extremely mysterious, most of them have the level of a fighter, but they are different from ordinary fighters, because they are born with the ability to find the source of the fighting spirit, although we are all descendants of the fighting saint, but not every newborn child has that weak fighting source, as long as a newborn is born, the holy master will go to check, all the babies who have the hope of becoming a fighter, when they are two years old, they will be taken to the fighting temple to be trained by them personally, so that the grown child will reach the level of a fighter at the age of ten. ”
"Then these children who have become fighters have also been trained by the Holy Master to become fighters?" (To be continued......
