Taoist priest, let’s become immortals together!
Chapter 19 Inn, Bandits
Li Erniu was stunned for a moment, but still stood up carefully, stood respectfully beside Chen Yuan, lowered his head, and did not dare to speak.
She caught a glimpse of the dry food in Chen Yuan's arms, her eyes were attracted for a moment, her mouth opened slightly, and a feeling of hunger came over her stomach, making rumbling sounds.
"Hmm?" Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows. "Are you hungry?"
Li Erniu's old face turned red.
His fingers were awkwardly pinching the corner of his coarse cloth, thinking that he came here to ask for help from an expert, but in return, not to mention being paid, he couldn't even get enough to eat. How could the little Taoist believe that he could make money in the village?
The thought of this.
Li Erniu's expression darkened and he became deflated.
Alas, it was all the fault of those bandits, who robbed him of all his money on the way. Even though he had found the Taoist priest now, and he was right in front of him, he still felt powerless.
Empty hands.
How can I ask someone to do something for me?
Chen Yuan didn't think much about it. After all, there was still a lot of silver and gold in his package, so he was considered a wealthy Taoist priest. He immediately reached out and took out a few pieces of coarse grain cakes and stuffed them into Li Erniu's arms.
"Eat."
"Thank you, Master Dao! Thank you!"
Li Erniu quickly wiped his hands on the chest of his coarse clothes, took the cake in a panic, swallowed his saliva, opened his mouth, and chewed it in big mouthfuls.
"Woo woo..." Li Erniu stuffed his mouth with pancakes, "It smells so good!"
"Slow down." Chen Yuan handed Li Erniu the cowhide water bag, "Drink some water, don't choke."
Li Erniu swallowed in big gulps. After a while, he had eaten three pieces of bread and drank several big gulps of water. Then he exhaled a breath of foul air. Although he was far from full, at least his legs were no longer trembling.
If I can't find anyone again.
I guess with his small body, he would starve to death in the mountains.
"Are you full?"
"Full...full." Li Erniu swallowed dryly, rubbing the biscuit crumbs at the corner of his mouth with his fingers, then put it in his palm and quickly licked it into his mouth. He looked up and saw Chen Yuan staring at him, and said embarrassedly, "Full, really full."
Chen Yuan: "..."
He is a simple villager.
However, the dry food in his package had been eaten up. If he wanted to have a full meal, he had to find someone as soon as possible, otherwise they would both go hungry.
"You've just come down from the mountain. Do you know where I can find the nearest place to stay? It's in the middle of nowhere. We need to get to Xiaoshizi Village as quickly as possible. We can't do it on foot alone."
Chen Yuan put away his sword and tied the package tightly.
Li Erniu seemed a little hesitant and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Say!"
"Little Taoist, this place is over a hundred miles away from Xiaoshizi Village, and the roads are all mountainous. I'm a bit weak, and it's been more than four days since I left."
Li Erniu paused, scratched his head and said,
"The nearest one is an inn, about half a day's journey from here, but there are bandits there. The village gave me the reward for asking you, Little Taoist Master, for the reward. It was robbed there."
Chen Yuan understood.
He didn't dare go over there again.
Banditry.
He is not even afraid of evil spirits.
What are these mere bandits?
More importantly,
He was really hungry, and... he was greedy. Just eating a few dry and hard coarse grain cakes could not satisfy him with the delicious food he had eaten in his previous life.
Thinking.
My saliva couldn't help but flow out.
"Lead the way."
"Oh oh." Li Erniu didn't dare to say more. He quickly pulled up his trousers, stepped forward, and took Chen Yuan to the inn.
……
About half a day later.
Chen Yuan and the other two finally made it through the dense forest and looked at a house not far away. Smoke was coming out of the chimney and the surrounding mountain roads were flat and crisscrossed. It was obviously a place for traveling merchants to rest.
"Huh..." Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. "We're finally here. If we couldn't find a place to stay, we'd have to spend the whole night in the wild hungry."
Li Erniu's face was filled with worry. He looked at the inn with fear in his small eyes and asked in a low voice, "Little Taoist, that's a shady shop. Can we just go there like this?"
He had almost been ripped off before.
If he wasn't so thin, he would have been captured by the bandits and forced to do hard labor in the mountain stronghold. Coming here again, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid.
Little Taoist priest.
Is it really possible?
It is said that the little Taoist priest exorcises ghosts and drives away evil spirits.
He believes it.
But the other party is a ruthless killer with all his skills trained in horizontal martial arts. He is a very ferocious bandit. I am just a small Taoist priest... two fists cannot beat four hands, I am not sure I can win.
You might get hit by a club.
It's easy to suffer losses.
He was a complete burden. If he went in straight away, he would be skinned alive. This time he had no money to buy his life.
"Are you hungry?"
"hungry."
"What are you talking about? Let's go in and eat first!"
Li Erniu was helpless, "Oh oh."
...
Immediately.
The two of them walked one in front and one behind, and arrived at the front of the inn in three or two steps. When they looked up, they saw a wooden sign with four big words written on it: Shanlai Inn.
The inn has two floors.
Chen Yuan pushed the door open and walked in. There were six tables placed in the hall in front of him. The men from the mountains sat at the two tables on the right, and the other two tables on the left, judging by their attire, were probably businessmen.
As for the middle.
At one table, six big men were drinking and eating meat with big mouthfuls. They spoke in loud and rough voices and kept saying vulgar words amidst their laughter. They were all strong and looked not to be trifled with.
With his head lowered, he caught a glimpse of six rough and burly men out of the corner of his eye. Li Erniu's legs trembled uncontrollably. Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows, guessing that these six men were the bandits who robbed Li Erniu.
He just sat in the lobby of the inn.
Rather unscrupulous.
"Waiter... hurry up and serve the food! What are you standing there for?" Chen Yuan strode over to the merchant on the left and sat down directly. He placed his sword-like hand on the table and shouted, "Good wine and good food... hurry up and serve this Taoist master!"
Too greedy.
"Alright~" The skinny waiter who was standing on tiptoe behind the counter quickly came out flatteringly, holding a pot of fine wine in his hand, and ran over in small steps, "Master Dao, this is the best Shenxian drunken wine, please try it!"
Chen Yuan opened the lid of the pot and poured a bowl.
It started to gurgle.
Suddenly, a burning sensation rushed from the throat to the abdomen, and the whole body was hot, dispelling the evil cold. Although it was spicy in the throat, for passers-by in the cold mountains, this wine would warm them up after drinking it. It was indeed a pot of good wine.
"Good wine!"
"Hey! Wait a minute, little Taoist priest, the food will be here soon!"
Soon.
Plate after plate filled with fragrant meat dishes were brought up. Seeing this, Chen Yuan grabbed the chopsticks and gently passed them to the waiter, saying with a smile, "Brother Xiaoer, try some too."
The waiter's mouth twitched.
OK OK.
This is to test poison on him.
"Eat quickly, don't just stand there."
"Hehe, sir, you're joking. How dare I eat your food?" The waiter rolled his eyes and put it directly into his mouth. "But since you asked me to eat it, I'll take the liberty of taking a bite. Mm~ It smells so good~"
Chen Yuan smiled faintly.
Then he changed his chopsticks and started eating.
He is not afraid of poisoning.
With the evil spirit's blood food and the internal organs strengthened by the blood curse, it is no problem for them to swallow the evil spirit alive, let alone poisons like knockout drugs.
Let the waiter test the poison.
It’s more for Li Erniu.
Erniu is an ordinary citizen, what if he is poisonous?
Wouldn't that harm him?
"Eat."
"Oh oh." Li Erniu swallowed his saliva, grinned, and started eating with big mouthfuls. The two of them ate voraciously. After a while, the whole table of dishes, even the plates, were clean.
The merchants passing by were all stunned.
I've never seen such a scene before.
More vulgar than the vulgar strong man.
pat.
Chen Yuan slammed his chopsticks on the table, wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth, and suddenly looked at the fierce bandit sitting in the middle who was staring at them intently, and said casually,
"Why, you guys want to eat too."
