Chapter 476: Wages
Red Leaf Town is just a small town, there are no tall walls, no strong garrison, some are just poverty and depression, this place, has not escaped the three-year drought, many places have deep and bottomless ravines.
Obviously, these ravines were caused by the drying and cracking of the earth, and they still exist today, telling the original catastrophe.
However, now this place has been used by the people of the Shenji Battalion to exert great magical powers, calling for wind and rain, and has solved the dryness, but all the harvest has been reduced to nothing, lack of food and clothing, many people have yellow faces and thin muscles, and their eyes are full of green light, and they are all hanging their heads all over the street, looking for everything that can be swallowed in their stomachs.
"I wonder if the gods of this place are still there?"
Zhang Yutang's clothes were also beaten into beggar's clothes by the wind and rain, and his bronzed skin shone dazzlingly in the sun, which looked powerful and powerful, reducing the weakness of many scholars.
For more than half a year, Zhang Yutang was cautious and did not dare to reveal the Dao Law, for fear of attracting the punishment of the gods.
I found a place, but it was a ruined wall, and the deserted yard was overgrown with wild grass, waist-deep.
I don't know how long this courtyard has been abandoned, the surrounding courtyard walls have basically collapsed, and as far as the eye can see, the dust-covered houses are covered with cobwebs.
Finding a courtyard wall that had not collapsed, Zhang Yutang squatted down and leaned against the wall, as if lazily basking in the sun, while his divine consciousness quietly emanated.
Everywhere he went, Zhang Yutang would carefully radiate his divine sense and check the local situation. Only when it is certain that it is safe will Zhang Yutang stay in this place for a while to inquire about the situation in Yanxia Mountain.
If there are gods and it is not safe, Zhang Yutang will make a decision immediately and leave immediately.
Zhang Yutang's divine consciousness is like a big net, with himself as the center, radiating out in all directions, and where the divine consciousness passes, many characters and places are presented in the Yuan Shen one by one. Instantaneous. The general framework of the entire Red Leaf Town was mastered by Zhang Yutang.
"The temple in this place has been destroyed, and no suspicious gods have been found, so it should be relatively safe. ”
After the investigation was completed, Zhang Yutang relaxed slightly. Got up from under the broken courtyard wall. Head to the bustling part of town. Only in prosperous places can there be restaurants.
The restaurant is a place where the three religions and nine streams meet, and the information is usually very well-informed.
"I hope to get news about Smoky Mountain. ”
Zhang Yutang sighed faintly in his heart: "Yanxia Mountain is not a famous Taoist mountain. It's not a holy place of Buddhism, I don't know a nameless mountain in that miscellaneous, and if you want to find such a mountain, you can only try your luck. ”
Obviously, in the past six months, Zhang Yutang's luck has not been good, and he has not found Yanxia Mountain.
Bang!
A person suddenly bumped into Zhang Yutang's arms, the essence in Zhang Yutang's body was already able to contract freely, and there was no power to rebound, but Zhang Yutang's body was tempered by the domineering spirit of heaven and earth, and he was covered in copper skin and iron bones, immortal, and tenacious.
The man was directly hit by Zhang Yutang and fell to the ground.
"Brother, are you alright. ”
bumped into someone, Zhang Yutang was a little embarrassed on his face, just now he had been thinking about the matter of Yanxia Mountain, and he was distracted, and he actually bumped into someone else.
"You're blind, the sky is white, you don't walk on such a wide road, hit me, are you looking for death. ”
The person who was bumped in, with a gloomy face, looked at Zhang Yutang angrily, stood up, slapped the dust all over his body, and muttered: "It's really unlucky, I met a black-hearted boss, it's bad enough to deduct my salary, and I was touched by a beggar while walking, did I go out today and didn't look at the yellow calendar." ”
The man muttered, snorted coldly at Zhang Yutang, ignored it, and walked away.
It's not that this person is very magnanimous, but Zhang Yutang is in tatters, and at first glance he is a homeless person, and he can't squeeze out any benefits from his body.
Looking at the departing young man, Zhang Yutang smiled faintly and did not squeak.
"Go to the Joy Inn and see if there's any valuable news."
Zhang Yutang had already grasped everything in Hongye Town in his heart, and naturally knew that the only restaurant in the town was a joint venture between a restaurant and an inn.
It is both a restaurant and an inn.
Yuelai Inn is located near a crossroads in Hongye Town, Zhang Yutang took steps, and soon arrived at the place, found a place by the window, and sat down.
Outside the window is an artificially dug lake, and the clear water in the artificial lake is rippling, reflecting the blue sky, which makes people feel relaxed and happy after looking at it, and can explain sorrow.
"Guest, what do you want to eat?"
Looking at Zhang Yutang who walked in, the owner of Yuelai Inn frowned and sighed: "Another poor ghost came in, it is estimated that there is no oil and water." ”
However, if you enter the door and you can't figure out the situation, you can't pick people off right away.
"Whatever you want. ”
Zhang Yutang has long stopped eating fireworks in the world, but just walks in the world, and he can't be a maverick, so he naturally needs to eat something to hide his identity.
"Guest officer, the small shop is a small business, no matter who comes to eat, they always pay first and order food. The owner of the inn was a little mean, looked at Zhang Yutang, and smiled: "If you don't have money, I won't serve this small shop, and I ask the guest officer for your forgiveness." ”
"It's natural to pay for dinner, and there's nothing to forgive?"
Zhang Yutang looked at the innkeeper with a smile: "You see that I am dressed in tatters, I'm afraid I have no money to pay the bill after eating." ”
The innkeeper didn't say anything, just swept his eyes around Zhang Yutang's tattered clothes.
Syllable!
A piece of silver on the table!
"Is this money enough, bring some good wine and good food in your store, just come up!"
The innkeeper's eyes lit up, and a fine light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and his face immediately smiled like a flower: "Enough, enough, you wait, guest officer, I'll get it for you right away!"
"Boss, I'm quitting, you paid my wages!"
The boss, who was about to turn around to cook, heard the voice, turned around slowly, looked at the person who came, and said, "Xiao Wang, what's the matter, I'll talk about it later, I still have guests here." ”
Xiao Wang said: "Hmph, you have guests here, what do you care about me, if you don't pay me this salary, believe it or not, I will find a few brothers and burn down your broken shop." ”
The innkeeper's eyes narrowed: "Xiao Wang, don't be ignorant, I Zhu Tousan in Red Leaf Town haven't been afraid of anyone yet, if you want to be paid, you can be honest with me." ”
"You!"
Xiao Wang's forehead was bruised, and his fists were clenched, but he didn't dare to move, and let Zhu Tousan walk in.
Xiao Wang looked around in the inn, and when he saw Zhang Yutang, Zhang Yutang smiled at him.
It was actually the little brother I met on the road. (To be continued......)
