Chapter 689 New Guests, Qing Chunhua and Huhe Brothers
Chapter 689 New Guests, Qing Chunhua and Huhe Brothers
Another guest came to the inn. She was a wealthy young lady, dressed in luxurious attire and covered in jewels. Even before she arrived, her accessories were dazzling.
The rich young lady was beautiful, but spoiled. She was accompanied by two servants. When she saw an inn in the mountains, she was curious and wanted to stay in the inn for a few days to see what it was like. The male servant behind her hurriedly stopped her: "Miss, this inn looks like a place where people can be eaten! You can't stay here, you can't stay here."
As he spoke, the male servant trembled all over, and felt that the inn was filled with gloomy air. The same was true for the female servant. However, Miss Fugui slapped her sword and said, "Why should I be afraid? My master is an expert in swordsmanship, and I have learned a few of his true skills. If there is a man-eating demon, I will be able to kill it with my sword!"
She strode into the store, kicked the door open, glared fiercely, and put her hand on the hilt of the sword. If there was any mistake, she would draw the sword immediately. The two servants were also conscientious and dedicated. Even though they were afraid, they still stood guard on one side, like "left and right guards".
Li Changxiao was speechless, he closed his eyes slightly, and said in a carefree manner: "Three of you, our shop is just for business, you are worrying too much."
The sound was like the breeze blowing, and Miss Fugui and the two servants were startled at the same time, and then they noticed that there was a man in white sitting in the hall. Miss Fugui was surprised, she saw the man in white lying on the armchair, and with a light touch of his hand, the chair swayed back and forth, which was quite strange, so she couldn't help but wonder if there was a secret mechanism hidden in the chair.
But after taking a closer look, she found that it was not the case. The armchair was very ordinary and had no mechanism. Miss Fugui asked curiously, "Could it be a master who has never been to the world? This person may be able to rival Master."
The chair can move automatically without any external force, which requires a deep understanding of martial arts. Li Chang smiled and said, "Are you three staying in the hotel?" Miss Fugui stepped forward and said, "Of course, you open a hotel and don't let people stay there?" Li Chang smiled and said, "You look like you are here to demolish the store. I think I am doing a good business and I haven't offended anyone."
Miss Fugui blushed, thinking that it was not her fault. She was clearly staying at the inn, but she kicked the door and drew her sword as soon as she came in. There was really no such reason in the world. Li Changxiao smiled and arranged for the three people to stay at the inn. The fee was cheap. Miss Fugui paid a lot of money, which made the innkeepers who had been short of money for a long time unable to find money.
It was really awkward for a while. Li Changxiao suddenly had an idea and temporarily raised the price. Miss Fugui cursed, "A dishonest businessman." Li Changxiao smiled and said, "There is no businessman without dishonesty." He took the three of them to the second floor and arranged guest rooms for them.
Miss Fugui came from the Northern Four Regions and her name was Qing Chunhua. The male servant behind her was named Liu Ju and the female servant was named Qu Xiaochan. Li Changxiao addressed them all by their names and treated them equally, which made Liu Ju and Qu Xiaochan flattered. They were happy and scared at the same time and hurriedly observed Qing Chunhua's expression.
Qing Chunhua didn't care at all and asked curiously: "Your inn looks nice and magnificent, why is it so poor?" Li Chang laughed and said: "It's because I'm lazy."
Qing Chunhua sneered, thinking that such a good inn was a waste of precious gems in this man's hands. If it were in her hands, she would definitely spend a lot of money and resources to build a landscape manor. By then, she would have a steady stream of money and could enjoy herself to her heart's content.
But she didn't dare to think too deeply, and quickly stopped thinking. Qing Chunhua's master once issued a command that the extravagant enjoyment of the world would corrupt people's will. If she coveted pleasure, she would never pass on her martial arts. Qing Chunhua left her hometown and traveled around because of her master's request.
Li Chang smiled and said, "Little girl, your martial arts seem to be extraordinary." It had been a long time since he had seen someone with such high martial arts skills, and who was still so young.
Qing Chunhua said proudly: "Even if they are gods, they may not be able to defeat me." Li Changxiao nodded: "Ordinary gods may not be stronger than you. Who is your master?"
Qing Chunhua glanced at him and asked, "You also want to become my disciple?" Li Changxiao laughed in silence and stopped asking.
Qing Chunhua, Liu Ju, and Qu Xiaochan checked into the inn. Qing Chunhua was very curious about the inn. She was a traveler and didn't have anything important to do, so she decided to stay a few more days. At noon the next day, two more people checked into the inn.
The two men were both old men, with white hair and very thin body. When they entered the store, their aura was very different. They checked in without any nonsense. After paying the money, they went straight to the second floor.
There were five people staying in the inn at the same time, and they were all of high status, so they were really excited. Li Changxiao needed to prepare food, and seeing that there were so many people, he wanted to show off his skills, so he carried a bamboo box and went to the wild to hunt some game.
He caught some black rabbits, wild vegetables and fruits. It was a wonder to say that there were many wild rabbits in the mountains. They would run away when they saw people, kicking their legs very fast. They were notoriously difficult to catch. But when Li Changxiao reached out to catch them, no matter how the rabbits ran, they were always easily caught in his hands.
It looked like an ordinary capture, but in fact it contained the mystery of the universe in the palm of your hand. Li Changxiao did not use his spiritual energy, but when he stretched out his hand to catch it, the rabbit seemed to be in the vast universe.
No matter how fast it ran, how could it escape? So Li Changxiao caught it with one grasp and one aim. Before he knew it, Li Changxiao had caught four or five wild rabbits.
It is no surprise that "The Universe in the Palm" is the most profound technique that Li Changxiao has come into contact with so far. It is worthy of being at the forefront of the hundred unique techniques.
Its magic was so amazing that it even seemed to be out of spirit. Back at the inn, Li Changxiao processed the ingredients and prepared a dinner in the lobby. He made four dishes, including wild rabbit and watermelon soup, beggar rabbit in lotus leaves, roasted rabbit meat, and stir-fried rabbit meat. The aroma was fragrant, exquisite yet a bit perfunctory. Each dish was carefully prepared, but he was reluctant to catch other game, resulting in a table full of only "rabbit meat".
Qing Chunhua and the other two who came down after smelling the fragrance were drooling at the aroma, but when they saw that it was all rabbit meat, they couldn't help but feel disappointed. They even cursed the shopkeeper for being a bad person for not wanting to prepare more dishes.
The two old men followed closely and went downstairs to prepare for dinner.
One of them was named Yun Zhonghe and the other was named Tian Zhonghu. They had cold expressions and didn't say a word the whole time.
But when he came downstairs and saw Qing Chunhua, his expression obviously changed.
