My timeless tavern

Chapter 437 Donating Money and Materials and Wu Dalang's Gains

Wu Dalang was born with an ugly face and short stature. He was often ridiculed and insulted, and he always felt inferior because of this.

In contrast to him, his younger brother Wu Song has a sturdy build, handsome appearance, and is strong and powerful.

As a result, people have been gossiping about them since they were young, making up stories that they were not real brothers, and Wu Song had many fights with others because of this.

After the news of his tiger-killing spread, Wu Song became a tiger-killing hero known throughout the area. He was even summoned by the county magistrate and given the position of a captain.

Having such a younger brother has always been a source of pride in his heart.

Now that he heard someone calling out his brother's name, how could he not be happy!
However, as his voice fell, many people looked at him with extremely strange eyes.

The sympathy in those people's eyes could not be concealed at all.

Xu Sanduo hesitated and asked, "Is your wife's name Pan Jinlian?"

"My wife is Pan Jinlian." As Wu Dalang said this, he thought of Yun Ge's reminder and his expression became depressed.

"Then you should divorce her as soon as possible!" a voice suddenly came.

Wu Dalang turned around and saw that the person who was talking was a man who looked like a brother to Xu Sanduo.

The man was not tall, about the same height as him, with an ordinary appearance, but his temperament was completely different from his.

Soon, he learned that the man's name was He An, and he was a Taoist priest who had just come down the mountain.

Listening to He An's words, Wu Dalang's mind flashed back to what Yun Ge had said, and his face turned paler.

Could it be that even the gods knew about her affair with Ximen Qing?
"Don't be anxious, maybe it hasn't happened yet!" said Zhao Gang.

The guests in the pub have never read "Iron Man", "Batman", "The Great Saint", etc., but for some guests living in the "modern times", the four great classics are well-known.

Whether it is Lin Daiyu in the past or Wu Dalang today, they have all heard of them.

Of course, there are many people who are not aware of this.

Liu Chan looked puzzled and asked, "What's going on? Could it be that Pan Jinlian is a jinx?"

Han Li looked at the distraught Wu Dalang and shook his head secretly, saying, "Sit down first. Since you are in the tavern, even if there is a big problem, it can always be easily solved."

Can anyone be more miserable than him?
He almost fell into the hands of his "mentor" Dr. Mo!

Wu Dalang sat down in despair.

He suddenly looked at Xu Sanduo and asked, "Jinlian... is she really with Ximen Qing..."

His lips trembled, but he couldn't say the rest of the words.

Xu Sanduo sighed, patted his shoulder and consoled him: "It seems that you know everything, but think positively, they haven't poisoned you to death yet, right?"

"Well...ah! Poison me?" Even though Wu Dalang was honest and kind, he couldn't help but raise his voice at this moment.

"Yes, you said you wanted Wu Song to avenge you, so they went all out and poisoned you to death!" Xu Sanduo said innocently.

The pub suddenly became quiet.

Han Li and Liu Chan looked at each other.

The two of them expressed the same thought in their eyes: this guy selling pancakes is really miserable!
"I...how dare they?!" Wu Dalang clenched his fists, furious.

In a fit of anger, he got angry.

After a few short breaths, the anger on his face turned into disappointment and annoyance, and he murmured, "A day of marriage brings a hundred days of grace, and she doesn't even care about this little bit of grace?"

Hearing his voice, Huang Yaoshi, who was sitting next to him, waved to He An.

Dugu Qiubai, Xiao Feng and others sitting at the same table also looked over.

He An came over: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Feng pointed at Wu Dalang's back and asked, "What's your background?"

He An understood what they meant and sighed: "This is a long story."

He grew up in a Taoist temple, but he had heard of the story of Wu Song fighting the tiger. His master also warned him to stay away from women with the story of Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian.

He quietly recounted what he knew.

Wu Dalang was born into poverty and made a living by selling pancakes. After he married Pan Jinlian, a maid from a wealthy family, she despised him in every way. He tried to seduce her younger brother Wu Song but failed, and got together with Ximen Qing with the help of Wang Po.

"He went to catch the adulterer, but was beaten up by Ximen Qing. He has been bedridden ever since. Because they were worried that he would tell Wu Song, the two conspired to poison him in front of the mourning hall..." He An was also a little angry as he spoke, his voice getting louder. "Later, Wu Song came back and realized that something was wrong. After investigating the matter, he killed the two men to avenge his brother. He lost his bright future and was forced to become a bandit."

He An deliberately lowered his voice, but there was no ordinary person in the tavern, and everyone could hear it clearly.

When his voice became louder, even Wu Dalang heard it.

His ugly face was full of frustration and anger.

It wasn't enough that they killed themselves, they also dragged down their brother!

Even an honest man like Wu Dalang was forced into a corner.

His eyes turned red and he felt the urge to kill the two men.

The others also showed indignation when they heard this.

Xiao Feng slammed the table with force and shouted angrily, "How can this be possible! Such an adulterer and adulteress must be punished by heaven and earth!"

Dugu Qiubai also said murderously: "That's what I deserve. Even if I cut you into pieces, I won't be satisfied!"

The others also spoke up, denouncing Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian.

Even He An and Xu Sanduo had the intention to kill someone.

They are both simple-minded, but they both feel that they would never be able to tolerate such a thing.

Listening to the voices of the crowd who were united in their hatred of a common enemy, Wu Dalang's eyes became dim.

He was used to being honest and loyal, and just now he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, but now he has calmed down and realized that this is too difficult.

Who is Ximen Qing?
Although that guy was not a good person, he was strong and healthy, and he was no match for him at all.

Only Wu Song can come forward to avenge himself.

But my brother has a bright future, why should I drag him into becoming a bandit?

Wu Dalang felt mixed emotions and burst into tears.

Seeing him crying, everyone was a little confused.

"Da Lang, that adulterous couple bullied you, just kill them, why are you crying?" Han Li was surprised.

How could this brother be so cowardly?

"A man should have a wife!" Ye Fan also came over, patted Wu Dalang on the shoulder, and said, "If you can't do it, we can help!"

He had heard of the stories of Water Margin, but he never thought that one day he would meet not Wu Song and Lin Chong, or Lu Da and Li Kui, but such a marginal little character.

But the pub happens to be the place where life changes.

The possibilities are endless here!

When Wu Dalang heard Ye Fan's words, he was stunned.

He looked up at the few people and suddenly came to his senses.

Unlike me, these people are all gods. What I think is a difficult problem, they may be able to solve with just a wave of their hands.

He held onto the table, then fell to his knees with a plop, and said with red eyes: "Please, gods and immortals, help me!"

"Hurry up and get up," Liu Chan supported him with both hands and said, "It's just a small matter, we have no choice but to do it, please don't be so polite."

Zhuge Liang repeatedly reminded him to be humble and polite and to be kind to others in the tavern.

Wu Dalang looks cowardly and humble, but he can enter the tavern, so his future will not be ordinary.

The others also spoke up and advised him not to do so.

The kindness in their words made Wu Dalang grateful and he kept thanking them with tears streaming down his face.

After a while, Wu Dalang's mood finally calmed down a little.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him and advised: "In fact, it's better for you to do this kind of thing yourself..." "Wouldn't it be great to kill your enemies with your own hands!" Dugu Qiubai said loudly.

Wu Dalang sighed, "Xi Men Qing is a notorious rogue who is good at using guns and sticks. I am no match for him at all."

"Even if I manage to kill him by surprise, my brother will definitely be implicated by me, and he still has a bright future ahead of him!"

Listening to his words, everyone shook their heads secretly.

Some people think that Wu Dalang is indecisive and hesitant, while others secretly praise him for his loyalty.

Liu Chan smiled and pointed around, saying, "I'm afraid Dalang doesn't know where you are!"

He pointed at himself and said, "Many of us are just like you..."

"Your wife is going to poison you too?" Wu Dalang was horrified.

"You..." Liu Chan paused and said unhappily, "I am the ruler of Shu Han, who dares to poison me?"

Wu Dalang blinked blankly.

Liu Chan said unhappily: “I mean, before entering the tavern, many of us were mortals.”

"For example, I am just an ordinary mortal emperor, and now I am about to unify the three kingdoms and revive the prestige of my great Han Dynasty!"

"This brother Zhu is starting a rebellion and establishing the Ming Empire..."

"Brother Dugu has defeated all opponents in the world, but he is just feeling lonely in life..."

"Brother Zheng, I don't need to say more, right? The Great Qin Shi Huangdi..."

"That person is my ancestor, Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty..."

"Brother Han is a genuine immortal!"

……

Hearing the names of the people, Wu Dalang felt dizzy, his knees went weak, and he almost fell to the ground again.

How could I be so worthy as to be able to meet these legendary figures!

In the past, when he met the county magistrate, he didn't dare to look him in the eye!

"Since Dalang has come here, sooner or later he will be like us!" Liu Chan said with a smile.

Wu Dalang shuddered all over.

Can I be the emperor too?

No, no!
He shook his head hurriedly: "How dare I...how dare I be like...like you guys."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "A hero does not ask where he came from. I was once a beggar, but now I command the world and become the ruler of China!"

Wu Dalang still felt guilty.

He felt that all this was simply a fantasy.

I am just a pancake seller. My biggest wish is to open a shop so that I don’t have to get up early and work late to sell my products on the street. How can I compare with these outstanding people?

Han Li smiled and pointed to the bar, and said to Wu Dalang, "Dalang, just look at the wine list and you'll know."

Wu Dalang lowered his head and said in shame: "I can't read."

"You'll know once you take a look. It doesn't matter if you can't read." Tony came over and said with a smile.

Wu Dalang looked in the direction everyone was pointing and indeed saw the wine list.

Those strange characters suddenly became clear in his eyes.

"Taoist wine... after drinking it, one can gain a corresponding amount of Taoism..." He looked surprised.

"Super-limit body wine... After drinking it, you can gain limitless strength in a short period of time through simple exercises, and smash a planet with one punch..."

Wu Dalang looked at them one by one, and the expression on his face became more and more interesting.

He forgot all the humiliation brought to him by Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing.

He suddenly had some ambitions in his heart.

If I could get a glass of wine like this, it would not be impossible for me to become an emperor.

But soon, the fire in his eyes gradually dimmed.

He is just honest, not stupid.

When he saw the time and space coins marked behind each type of wine, he knew that he could not afford them at all.

He sold pancakes day and night, and he didn't know how long it would take to earn a time-space coin!

Liu Chan smiled and said, "Da Lang, now you know we didn't lie to you, right?"

"Your fate has changed now that you can enter the tavern," he said with great enthusiasm, "As long as you want, let alone becoming the emperor, you can even ride on the emperor's head and pee and shit, and no one will dare to say no!"

He noticed that the others looked at him with strange expressions.

Liu Chan reacted and felt that these words sounded like an insult to himself.

He changed the subject and said, "So, killing the adulterous couple is not a problem at all."

Wu Dalang moved his lips, not knowing what to say.

"Are you thinking about the space-time coin?" Han Li saw his embarrassment and said with a smile: "I can sponsor you..."

He wanted to say 100,000, but he remembered that he had just made a big purchase yesterday and was now very short of money, so he hurriedly checked his space-time coin balance and said, "5,000 space-time coins."

Liu Chan followed up by saying, "I'm not as generous as Brother Han, so please don't despise me for giving you a hundred Spacetime Coins."

"I don't have money, but I can give you ten boxes of weapons!" said Xu Sanduo.

He An scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

He is really poor.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "Like Brother Liu, I can also give you a hundred time and space coins."

Xiao Feng waved his hand and said, "I only have over 300 on hand, I'll give them all to you!"

"I, Old Pig, will give you two thousand five!" said Zhu Bajie.

"I only have more than 4,000 time and space coins on hand, Dalang, just take them!" said the sword immortal Li Bai.

"Don't refuse my ten thousand time and space coins!" Ye Fan smiled.

"I have used up all my space-time coins. I can give you a set of nano battle suits that I just developed." Tony said with a smile.

……

Everyone was talking at once, some gave money, some gave gifts.

In a short while, Wu Dalang discovered that there were more than 100,000 time and space coins in his account!
In addition, he also obtained a large amount of various supplies.

For this, Li Jing also gave him a valuable storage bag.

Wu Dalang was trembling all over, his face full of gratitude.

Even though everyone tried to stop him, he still stubbornly kowtowed to them more than a dozen times.

It was not until his head was broken and bleeding that he was pulled up.

His eyes were red, tears were welling up, and his lips were trembling. He really didn't know how to express his gratitude.

This was the first time in his life that he had received so much kindness.

These immortals, emperors... are all good people!
Seeing his expression, Han Li smiled and said, "No need to thank me, Dalang. Let's quickly see what kind of wine to buy."

"We are all friends since we can enter the tavern. It is our duty to help each other," Liu Chan also said, "Da Lang, you should deal with your business quickly!"

Wu Dalang wiped away his tears and nodded heavily.
