Yan Jin'an let out a scream, and his fat body swayed, as if he had been injured by a fragment of the cup.Standing on one foot and jumping on the ground, like a fat and clumsy frog.

The servants around him rushed forward, shouting "Master!" repeatedly.Several hands scrambled to take off the gold-faced silk shoe that was one size larger than others, and carefully looked at the wound on it that was only half the size of a knuckle.

A smell that could not be described as pleasant smell dissipated, and the few remaining diners in the inn retreated one after another, pinching their noses and hiding behind to watch the excitement.

Yan Jin'an felt that he had never been wronged so much since he was a child, so he couldn't help feeling ashamed and annoyed.A fat face was flushed, and he put his feet on the back of a tall servant.All the anger was directed at the man who was still sitting on the chair indifferently.

"You guys, take off his clothes for me, and teach him well, what kind of gift should he do when he sees me, Mr. Yan!"

He had a total of five or six servants around him, and three of them were a little less clever and failed to show courtesy in front of their master.So he could only walk towards the gray-clothed man on the opposite side, gearing up his fists and pretending to be eager to try, but no one wanted to make a move first.The three of them glanced at each other, muttering inwardly.

After all, this face has never been seen before, it must be someone from outside, but it doesn't look like an ordinary passing peddler.The person who lifted the table and threw the chair just now didn't know whether he was frightened or what, but he didn't react at all, he just sat on the chair with the cup in his hand, his expression normal.

Yan Jin'an yelled at them again, and the three of them dared not delay any longer.Judging by how poorly dressed that person is, he must not be a big shot, besides, they are used to following Yan Jin'an in domineering and domineering, and they do such things a lot.One of them stretched out his hand and made a gesture to grab the man's skirt.

Just before they approached, the man hummed softly and stood up.

"I don't know, you are a mere mortal, what kind of gift do you want me to do to you?"

The man in gray raised his head, revealing a pale face.But in his originally empty right hand, a perfectly round fireball suddenly appeared.

This fireball is the size of half an adult's palm, but its color is not the usual reddish yellow, but a mixture of blue and white.The flames swayed and swayed without wind, like a ghost.

Someone next to him exclaimed.

"It's a celestial master! This is a celestial master!"

The lifespan of a mortal is no more than a hundred years, and the prosperity is no more than that of princes and generals.But if a mortal cultivates immortality and becomes Tao, he will be blessed by good fortune, increase his lifespan by thousands of years, and aspire to become the Dao of heaven and earth.But not everyone has the potential to cultivate immortality. Even so, countless children go to Chongnian Mountain to climb the immortal ladder every year with the idea of ​​soaring to the sky.There are only a few who can stay.

When the people behind heard the exclamation and saw the fireball again, they fell to their knees with a crash.

The shopkeeper of the inn crawled out from behind the counter tremblingly on his hands and feet. He was hiding behind just now, but now he kept begging for mercy from Master Tianshi and said some good things.He stared at the fireball, thinking that he heard that the Heavenly Master has boundless magic power, and if this fireball goes down, the small shop he has been running for half his life will be burned on the spot, leaving nothing behind.

He didn't spare his life, he just felt sorry for his own inn, which he was planning to pass on to his son.Thinking of this, he put on a smile on his face without crying, and his whole face was twisted together.

The most terrible thing is Yan Jin'an, who was surrounded by servants just now.Now the people around him scattered as if they had seen a hawk or a rabbit, leaving him at the forefront.

Yan Jin'an was pushed and shoved in a daze, and he fell to the ground.Face buried in long embroidered sleeves.Under him was the shard of the glass that had just been shattered, piercing hard into his flesh.He screamed and writhed like a wriggling mountain of meat.

The man in gray didn't pay attention to him, and he didn't even move his gaze down a bit.He went straight over Yan Jinan who was lying on the ground to the black wood counter, and put two taels of silver on it.

"I want a jug of sake."

Xiao Er, who was left behind at the counter, took out the best wine and handed it over with shaking hands.

After the man got the wine, he wanted to walk towards the door.

When passing by the table of Chi Diao, he suddenly stopped.

Although Chi Diao couldn't see just now, he made a good guess just by hearing the sound.Chu Jinhe pulled him down by his clothes, and the two of them squatted behind the table together with a few guards.

Chu Jinhe first covered Chi Diao's mouth, then slowly stood up, nodding and bowing to him flatteringly.

"I don't know what the celestial master has to teach?"

The man raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Who is that man behind you?"

Chu Jinhe's subordinates couldn't help but let go, Chi Diao stood up from under the table, and looked at him blankly with a pair of blind eyes.

A slight smile appeared on that expressionless face.The beauty that was usually only concealed by an indifferent expression was undoubtedly displayed under this smile, just like the first spring breeze and the ice suddenly melted.The black eyelashes trembled slightly, the smile was shallow, and the brows were full of emotion.

After a while, the man let out a breath from his throat.

Like an unfinished sigh.

It's crazy, how can you suspect that a person is still alive just because of a somewhat similar face?He had clearly seen with his own eyes that he fell into the bottomless mountain stream of Fallen Immortal Mountain and was completely wiped out.

I... shouldn't have any fantasies.

He recalled all the things before, bitterness grew in his heart, he turned and left the inn, and his figure disappeared into the street.

Those who were left behind in the inn all breathed a sigh of relief.

Only now did the servants of Young Master Yan remember his master who had been forgotten in place, and they tried to help him but were swung away.Yan Jin'an's face was ashen, and he didn't want anyone to help him. He stepped forward with his left foot on his right foot.

Chi Diao and the group also got out from under the table.Chi Diao also returned to his usual indifference, as if the short-lived smile just now was just an illusion.

Looking at his cold, indifferent and clean face, Chu Jinhe narrowed his eyes slightly.

----

That night.

The night is as cool as water, and the summer insects weep slightly.

The best guest room in the Mountain Inn is just an ordinary wooden bed. At most, there are two more layers of cotton mattresses on the bed. The outermost layer of the quilt is roughly embroidered with a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water. .

Although something like this happened in this inn today, this is already the only inn in this village where you can stay.It will take two days to ride a horse to the next resting place. There are so many of them, and no one is willing to keep them if they want to live in a homestay, unless they are given money. What thieves are thinking about, if a group of people come, no matter how good the martial arts of the guards around Chu Jinhe are, they will capsize.

Mr. Zuo Tiantian seemed to have a good temper, and he would never come back to buy that bland sake in this dilapidated inn.Chu Jinhe made up his mind, and the group of them stayed in this inn.They asked for four rooms, and Nianjiu lived in one room next to Chi Diao and Chu Jinhe. The head of the guard named Nianyi divided the rest of the people into several groups and lived in the Tongpu next door.

On the twenty-ninth, Chu Jinhe cleaned his hands and face, made the bed with incense, combed his hair and applied ointment, and stretched out the clothes to be changed tomorrow, and put them on the shelf.The gaudy quilt on the bed was also replaced with a silk quilt taken out of the box.The bed boards were cleaned first to make sure there were no bedbugs.If it weren't for the lack of hot water in this place, I would definitely have to take a good bath.

It was only then that Chi Diao saw that he had really wronged this man when he was recuperating at home, no wonder the injury just happened and he couldn't wait to run to Kyoto.
