The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 962

Although we encountered those people on the way, it was still much better than being locked up in the mansion.

The two of them had traveled a long and arduous journey, and were covered in dust.

They did not arrive in Xiang County until 1:15 PM.

The two of them had already been jostled around so much that their limbs were feeling weak.

He must be a martial artist; he'll be fine after a short rest.

The two of them entered and went inside the inn.

"It's clear that this inn is the best in the area."

They never let themselves suffer along the way.

They stayed in the best accommodations and ate the best food.

Xu Tian thought that having someone by his side was, after all, the Ninth Prince.

Regardless, they are of noble status.

He lacks nothing now and has become the richest man in Chang'an City, so how could he lack anything?

As soon as the two of them entered the store, the waiter greeted them with a smile.

"Sirs, are you here for a meal or to stay the night?" the waiter asked.

Although it was still early, Xu Tian decided to stay and explore the local customs and culture.

So I decided to stay at a hotel.

But first they have to eat.

Let's order first!

The two older brothers' eyes swept over them several times.

He then turned to his shopkeeper.

After a hearty meal, someone said, "Master, why don't we go for a walk around?"

Anyway, we're all just out here to gain experience, so it's the same no matter where we are.

Xu Tian nodded.

He got up and went to pay the money.

"Boss, how much is the total?"

The boss simply calculated the costs on the menu.

"Twelve taels of silver!"

Xu Tian was stunned when he heard the number.

That amount could probably feed an entire street.

It's obvious that this boss did it on purpose.

It seems he thought Xu Tian and his group were outsiders and wanted to rip them off.

Xu Tian smiled softly.

He then pretended to have a stomachache.

"Ouch! Oh no, oh no, my stomach hurts so much! It's not because I ate anything unclean here."

The shopkeeper was clearly a veteran, and he looked at Xu Tian with a calm expression.

I was just about to hurl insults at them.

puff!

Xu Tian then spat out a mouthful of blood, which landed directly on his boss.

The boss was also taken aback.

He was a little flustered and quickly asked his younger brother to go find a doctor.

"This, this, you can't die here with me!"

The doctor arrived quite quickly; the waiter had only been gone a short while when he returned with the doctor.

"Hiss! This!"

The doctor looked conflicted.

The shopkeeper looked extremely anxious, with small beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

"Tell me quickly, what exactly happened? They just finished eating and this happened. If word gets out, it will be terrible."

The shopkeeper was afraid that things would be exposed, so he asked them to go to the backyard, but Xu Tian refused and sat directly in the hall.

"These are signs of food poisoning."

The doctor knew what the shopkeeper was worried about, and he spoke very softly, so softly that only a few of them could hear him.

But who knows, there might be some people with exceptionally sharp ears who happen to overhear that sentence.

Such a thing happening in the inn is outrageous!
