You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 531 Adding Spaces Around the Lobby

In the evening, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two returned to Shengjia Inn from outside and happened to meet a group of people coming out.

They were tall and strong, and when they saw Shi Xiaoliu and the other two, there was a flash of disdain in their eyes.

After they left, Shi Zelan could feel the innkeeper secretly breathing a sigh of relief.

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two went upstairs and entered their rooms.

After a while, Shi Zelan came out of the room and went to Shi Xiaoliu's room, and he just opened the door.

After Shi Zelan entered, she saw Xia Yu sitting inside and said, "We should come to the secular world less often in the future. It's really inconvenient to follow the rules everywhere."

Shi Xiaoliu smiled: "I think it's good. Being too comfortable is not a good thing for those of us who have been practicing for a long time."

Shi Zelan thought about what Shi Xiaoliu said, nodded and said, "Brother Xiaoliu is right. I am a little relaxed. I need to consolidate my state of mind."

Xia Yu whispered, "The people who just left had murderous auras, but also had a slight aura of merit. They are most likely soldiers."

Shi Xiaoliu was surprised, but then he thought about it and said, "They sleep during the day and are busy with work at night?"

“Little Six, don’t be too curious.

Sheng's Inn is near the government office, so they might be busy with serious matters."

"I'm not curious, I'm just saying it casually."

As they talked, they encountered the group entering a secret place.

At daybreak, they walked out in a group, and the leader said to a man in green, "Sir, the inn we are staying in now is a little unsafe.

There were new people yesterday, three thin young men."

The man in green looked at him and asked, "Is there anything wrong with them?"

"No.

But I sensed something strange about them, and I felt they were not as harmless as they appeared to be.”

“Got it, I’ll arrange for someone to check the origins of these three people.

You guys should finish the things here first, and you will be fully responsible for these two days."

"Sir, is it true about the injured man in black?"

The man in green remained silent, and the leader quickly shook his hand: "No, I won't ask anymore."

The man in green looked at him for a few times and said, "Go wash up first, then have dinner outside and then go back to sleep."

In the morning, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two went out and saw a group of people coming back from upstairs. The leader looked at Shi Xiaoliu and the other two very carefully.

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two left the inn, and Shi Xiaoliu whispered, "Why do I feel like there's something wrong with that man's eyes?"

"Don't think so. He is now doubting our true identity."

"Didn't he think we were weak and incompetent yesterday? How come he became wary of us in just one night?"

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two turned out of this street, they immediately felt two people following them.

Shi Zelan smiled immediately and said to Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu, "Let's take a good walk on the street, and then go to the teahouse and sit for a while."

In the morning, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two would go into every store they came across to take a look. They only looked but did not buy or ask questions, which made the two people who followed them think that there was something wrong with them.

At lunch, Shi Xiaoliu and two other people went into a roadside restaurant to eat. They followed the two people and asked people, one of whom was guarding the front door and the other was guarding the back door.

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two had their meal, they sat in the restaurant for a while, and then leisurely went to the teahouse they had visited yesterday.

The two people who followed them asked curiously, “Aren’t they scholars?
Why don’t they go to the bookstore and have a look?”

"I think they are fake scholars." In the evening, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two returned to Shengjia Inn. After a while, the two people who followed them also entered the inn.

They went up to the third floor in silence and told the leader about Shi Xiaoliu and the other two's itinerary for the day.

"Boss, I think they are more feminine than women. They slowly look around in one shop after another, without asking prices or touching anything. They just look."

"Then they are really not women. When women see good things, they can't help but buy them all."

"Boss, aren't we going out tonight?"

"You don't go out tonight. We are helping the government to conduct a strict investigation of people who have been in and out of the city in recent days."

“Boss, three people are coming downstairs, and a bunch of injured men in black have appeared on the city wall.

Boss, do you think they did a good thing? "

"Don't guess randomly. Do you think these three people have any kung fu?"

"Boss, there is a kind of master whose Kung Fu is as deep as that of ordinary people. Maybe they are that kind of people."

“I asked the owner about their ages, the oldest is 20 and the youngest is 18.

Even if they practiced martial arts in their mother's womb, they would not be able to cultivate such profound skills at this age."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two returned to their rooms, and they meditated and practiced in their rooms without being affected.

The spiritual energy in the mortal world is thin, but it is still enough for them.

On the morning of the second day, when Shi Xiaoliu and the other two went out, there were still two people following them.

This time they went to the bookstore. After spending most of the morning in the bookstore, Shi Xiaoliu and the other two went to the vegetarian restaurant.

This time, they heard accurate news that the government had interrogated the men in black and found out that they were from the Nameless City.

The people dining in the vegetarian restaurant suddenly became noisy.

"Nameless City, that's not a good place."

"Do you know the Nameless City?"

“Yes, twenty years ago, a relative of mine passed through Nameless City and almost lost his life.

He was able to escape the city safely thanks to the kindness of the innkeeper."

Suddenly, the vegetarian restaurant became lively, and everyone thought that the man in black must be a vicious villain.

"The Jianghu people sent people to our city because they must know that our officials have a good reputation."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two looked at each other. They really didn't know what the reputation of the local officials was like.

They just considered sending the men in black to a place farther away from the Nameless City.

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two finished their meal, they ordered three rice cakes from the vegetarian restaurant, and then carried the rice cakes out of the restaurant.

The three of them hurried to the teahouse again. When they arrived at the teahouse, there were only tables near the main entrance.

The three of them hurried over and sat down. Sure enough, some guests arrived after a while, so they had to add more seats around the lobby.

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two drank tea, ate cooked beans, and listened to everyone discussing the man in black on the city wall.

When the novelists arrived, everyone signaled that they would tell their stories later and that they would first discuss the man in black on the city wall.

After the novelists listened to everyone's talk for a while, they immediately told everyone some news they had heard.

Then everyone crowded in front of the storytelling platform and asked the storyteller, "Did your master go to the government to inquire about the news?"

The novelists stared at the crowd with their mouths opened: "Why do you think so highly of our Master?"
