Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 13 The Three-Day Talent

Early the next morning, I heard crackling noises in the lobby!The people who were awakened went out of the room one after another to look for the source of the sound, and found that Xiucai was fiddling with a chair on the counter and smashing nails on it.

Seeing everyone gathered around, the scholar said embarrassedly, "I woke you up! I'm sorry." After speaking, he started to smash it up.

Tong Xiangyu gave Bai Zhantang a look, Bai Zhantang patted his chest and said, "Don't worry! Leave it to me".

"Xiu Cai, what are you doing!" Bai Zhantang leaned against the counter and said relaxedly.

"I'm preparing tools, ready to imitate the ancient people's head hanging beam, awl piercing buttocks," said the scholar without looking back.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after understanding Xiucai's behavior.

Dazui smiled beside him and said, "Why don't you say that you are a great scholar! These two sets of equipment are scary to look at, and ordinary people can't hold on to them."

"What do you know, the heaven will send a great mission to the people, you must first work hard on your mind, work your muscles and bones, and starve your body...does that make sense to you?" Xiucai turned her head arrogantly after speaking halfway.

"Brother Xiucai, then you don't want to put yourself to death, right? You have prepared these two tools, which are almost as good as the torture tools of the county government. Are you sure you are studying, not interrogating prisoners?" Zhang Chen said with a smile beside him.

The scholar turned a deaf ear to the people's teasing, sharpened his brush and ink and wrote on the paper.Everyone observed for a while and found it very boring, so they left one after another.

Two or three days later, Xiucai was still writing hard, and everyone finally ignored Xiucai's behavior.

There were relatively few people in the inn that day. After greeting the guests in the lobby, Bai Zhantang found that Xiucai was not at the counter when he was resting at the table. He walked to the counter curiously and saw the achievements of Xiucai in the past two days. The large-character martial arts rumors inexplicably attracted Bai Zhantang's attention, and when he was about to continue reading, Xiucai suddenly ran over and snatched the paper away.

"Oh, Xiucai, you let me see how much you have written. The title is good and eye-catching," Bai Zhantang said after chasing Xiucai.

The scholar said embarrassingly at the side: "I haven't written the rest yet!"

Everyone rolled their eyes and left one after another, co-authoring only wrote a topic these days.

"Don't go! I will definitely write it down, but I don't have enough inspiration right now," Xiucai shouted after watching the crowd leave.

It seems that the scholar who worked hard and inspired to study did not exist two days ago.It took only two or three days to resume the usual slapstick, the only change was that he could be seen leaning against the counter in a daze and taking out papers from time to time to continue writing his Wulin Biography.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Chen can only feel the repairing power of the plot world, Brother Xiucai can only be a typical late bloomer!

Ding!The task of protecting one side and exterminating bandits in Heifengzhai has been completed.

Reward: five years of internal strength, a hundred-smelting steel knife.

Hearing the sound of the system, Zhang Chen froze for a moment before reacting!

The mission system this time is really not working. It has been nearly half a month since the last time to encircle and suppress Heifengzhai. Zhang Chen complained that the mission was only settled now.

After a while, I heard Catcher Xing's iconic laughter, the sound came before the person arrived.Zhang Chen greeted him with a smile and said, "Uncle Xing, you haven't been here for a long time!".

"There is no way, it's not a trivial matter to deal with the follow-up of Heifengzhai," Xing Butou replied with a smile.

"Uncle Xing, look at your smile, you have done a lot this time!" Zhang Chen said after welcoming Xing Butou to the inn and making a pot of tea.

It's okay, it's okay, this can be regarded as a fulfillment of your Uncle Xing's dream!The merits of this encirclement and suppression of bandits were reported to the six gates. After checking the merits, not only were they given a pen reward, but they were only one step away from being promoted.

This time it really affected my career!Seeing Xing Tutou's smiling expression, he knew what was going on.

"Xiaochen! Thanks to you this time, if you hadn't told me such a good thing, you, Uncle Xing, really don't know when you will have this credit!
Don't worry, Uncle Xing will also report the credit to you and Lao Bai, and wait for the reward from the six doors!No need to thank Uncle Xing, this is what should be done."

The good news was digested slowly, I continued to patrol the streets, Xing Butou disappeared on the street while laughing.

Zhang Chen didn't respond to Xing Butou's words, and Bai Zhantang sat on the table unsteadily.

After a short while of reaction, he turned around the long table and hurriedly said: "Isn't this a sheep who entered the wolf's den and threw himself into the snare?"

No, no, I have to go out and hide for a while," listening to Lao Bai talking to himself.

Zhang Chen patted his forehead helplessly and said: "Brother Bai, don't worry, this is just annihilating a small cottage. Even if you come here to reward, you won't be some high-ranking official. Who would know you?"

After a while, Bai Zhantang also came to his senses, patted his head and complained to Zhang Chen: "No way, who made us thieves and others are officials! Don't care about the big and small officials, as long as you wear official clothes, you will be afraid ah!".

"Brother Bai, you can't do this! This will be very bad for you in the future! You can't hide for the rest of your life, you have to think about you and the shopkeeper if you don't want to think about yourself." Zhang Chen raised his eyebrows and said to Bai Zhantang .

"Hey, Xiao Chen, a brat dares to meddle in my affairs, be careful I'll let the shopkeeper give you a blind date," Bai Zhantang shot back not to be outdone.

After you said something to me, you quickly realized that you couldn't do anything to the other party, so you skipped the topic tacitly, and the two continued to greet the guests after saying hello.

Watching Bai Zhantang greet the guests in the inn, Zhang Chen turned around and returned to the room, planning to study his task panel carefully.The arrival of Catcher Xing made Zhang Chen discover the system news this time, and now it is not a system problem, but it will be released after the court has summed up the credit.

Zhang Chen closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the bed, starting his daily meditation exercises.

After a while, I heard roars from downstairs!Guo Furong, if you are lazy, you don't have to eat at night, so hurry up and wash your clothes.Bai Zhantang didn't hurry up and tell the guests what to do next to the door, and you, Li Dazui, have prepared all the dishes, and you still have time to laugh by the side."Scholar, don't mess around with your four words, it's only a few days before you get back to your original shape!"

Hearing the shopkeeper's angry shouts one after another, everyone immediately got busy, and Xiucai muttered in a low voice at the counter: "This is a necessary rest for me, I need to combine work and rest!"

Guo Furong wiped her clothes and said: "Then there is Xiaochen, why only talk about us, I don't agree."

"You still have the nerve to compare with a child! How old is he, how dare you say that?" Tong Xiangyu said with sharp eyes.

Guo Furong could only say helplessly: "Okay, okay, I was wrong."

Seeing Guo Furong being reprimanded, everyone said: "The shopkeeper always treats Xiaochen as his younger brother. If you say that, Xiaochen must be the one who will be unlucky in the end."

"Then if you don't stop me, I'll be punished," Guo Furong said through gritted teeth.

Seeing everyone's smirking expressions, Guo Furong understood that they did it on purpose.Let's see what's going on, Guo Furong yelled and started fighting with everyone in the inn.
