Don't take land as a fairy

Chapter 58

More and more people gathered in Ping Township, and it was already overcrowded on the third day of Li Mulai.Many later cultivators had no place to live, so they had to borrow farmhouses at high prices.After even the farmhouse was full of people, the later had no choice but to set up tents outside the town for temporary living.

On the official road outside the town, people came here one after another.Most of the ascetics traveled with their feet, but there were seven or eight of them riding tall horses, walking in the crowd with a feeling of standing out from the crowd.The ascetics on the side cast their gazes one after another, and couldn't help frowning.

The horse riders are led by a handsome man and a beautiful woman. The man wears a golden crown and jade belt, a gold-threaded jade coat, and silver boots, and one can feel a noble aura from a distance.The woman was dressed in blue crystal silk, and her long sea blue hair was naturally draped behind her back, making her extremely glamorous.Behind them were five armored guards, but they didn't know which side they came from.But it is certain that they are not ascetics, but more like princes and nobles who are playing.

The woman looked at the small town in front of her from a distance, and there was a hint of emotion in her agate-like beautiful eyes. "Will he come?" The woman sighed softly in her heart.

"Guest officer, dong dong...Guest officer." Li Mu was practicing when the voice of the waiter in the inn suddenly sounded outside the door.Gathering the purple energy and removing the barrier, Li Mu thought it was Xiao Er who came to deliver food, so he quickly opened the door.But he saw that Xiao Er was empty-handed, with a white rag on his shoulders, bowing his waist and looking at Li Mu with a smile.

Li Mu frowned, and asked: "What's the matter?" He dared to disturb his cultivation without anything, and he was somewhat upset.

Xiao Er chuckled and said, "Guest officer, you have been staying in the shop for a long time, can you settle the bill first?"

"Check out? Why, I'm afraid that the young master won't give you the money." Li Mu gave Xiaoer a cold look, and the waiter shivered all over, and quickly said politely: "No, sir, don't misunderstand. It's just because There are more and more people in the small town, and the supply of guest rooms is already in short supply, so Nai, the shopkeeper, adopted the method of collecting rent first and then staying in the hotel. The small shop is not aimed at you alone, all guests must be like this, please forgive me.”[

"Really, how much is the total?" Li Mu didn't make things difficult for them, after all, the food made by this restaurant still suits his own taste.And knowing how to work around can make more money, Li Mu seems to have learned another trick.

Xiao Er came prepared, took out Li Mu's bill and looked at it, and said: "Guest officer, the rent for three days is three taels, three meals a day, seven taels and four for each meal, a total of 66 taels , Hehe, it's a very auspicious number. A total of 69 taels of silver, can you take a look, sir?" Xiaoer handed over the bill, which was written in detail, including the price of each dish.

The moment Li Mu got the bill, his face burned.I am used to eating and drinking, and I rarely pay for it myself, and I don’t know how much I eat for a meal.I didn't expect to spend so much money after three days.As for himself, the total amount was less than 40 taels of silver.

"Uh, that, take me to see your shopkeeper." Li Mu snorted unnaturally, and then said seriously.

Xiaoer thought that Li Mu still had to bargain, so he gave him a sneaky look, and led Li Mu to the counter in the front hall.

"Shopkeeper, this young master has come to pay the bill." Xiaoer said to the shopkeeper, and then went to greet other guests.

"Guest officer, you have a total of 69 taels. I want you to pay 66 taels for auspiciousness. If you want to continue to live, the daily rent will be [-] taels, and three meals a day will be counted separately." He smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Li Mu took out his money bag and put it on the counter, and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, young master, I came out in a hurry, and I didn't bring enough silver taels with me, here are 40 taels, you take it first, and I will definitely send the rest in the future."

The shopkeeper's smile froze, the slits of his eyes suddenly opened, the expression on his face changed again and again, and finally he said with a sullen face, "If you don't have any money, you still come to pay for the uncle. Do you want to eat and drink for nothing?"

Li Mu curled his lips and said, "I'll take the rest on credit first, you can make a receipt, and I'll pay you double in the future."

"In the future, now there is a lot of chaos, there is no tomorrow, no one knows if there will be a future. Besides, you people are wandering, if you don't come, where will I find you?" The shopkeeper said anxiously, unwilling to give up a step.

Li Mu's face darkened, and he said coldly: "Do you not believe me?"

The shopkeeper guessed that Li Mu was probably also a cultivator, and felt a little apprehensive.But seeing that Li Mu was alone, and the others were in groups, and hearing that they were all decent people, he suddenly gained some confidence.He plucked up his courage and said, "Why, you don't pay for meals, and you still want to beat someone?"

Li Mu was taken aback, but before he had time to say anything, he saw that the shopkeeper of Banbai suddenly acted like an old widow in the country: "Beat someone, some people didn't pay for food, and they beat people." He shouted, immediately Attracting the eyes of the entire inn, even many passers-by surrounded him.

"Should I get out early if I don't have money, my disciple has no place to live?" Just as he was in a daze, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.Turning his head slightly, he saw two tables of uniformly dressed ascetics, and the voice came from there. [

"What's going on, what's going on." A group of officers and soldiers rushed in through the crowd, looked around arrogantly, and asked again: "Who is making trouble?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him, pulled the leader and cried, "Captain Zhou, you are here, he doesn't pay for his meals, and beats people."

"Oh, there's another thing, come with us." Several officers and soldiers came up and arrested people without saying a word.However, as soon as the claws approached Li Mu, they were suddenly frozen into ice cubes, and several people instantly turned into ice sculptures.

Li Mu glanced at the shopkeeper coldly, and said coldly: "I will return the remaining money to you in a few days." After finishing speaking, he was ready to leave.

However, the group of Taoist priests around them sneered: "Using Taoism to bully ordinary people is really a scum in our monastic world."

"What did you say?" Li Mu glanced coldly at the speaker, but he was only a young man in his early thirties.Although the man looks ordinary, there is always a sense of arrogance between his brows, as if he doesn't pay attention to anyone.Seeing him, Li Mu unconsciously thought of Xihai Aofeng, an equally annoying character.

"I said you are a scum, and today I will discipline and discipline you for your master. From now on, when you walk in the rivers and lakes, restrain yourself a little bit." The young man said lazily.

"Haha..." Li Mu seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, and laughed out of anger.I always thought I was crazy enough, but I didn't expect to meet an even crazier person today.Is there anything more ridiculous than disciplining me for the master?I am afraid that even the Tathagata Buddha would not dare to say such things rashly.

"You, what are you laughing at?" The young man frowned and asked, with some anger between his brows.

Li Mu was about to teach this crazy and boundless person a lesson, when a clear voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Because you are too overconfident."

The voice is very familiar and nice, like the sound of the piano from the bottom of the sea, knocking into people's hearts wave after wave.It turned out that I haven't seen it for many years, but this voice is still clearly remembered in my heart.When we met again, a little bit of memory flooded in an instant.

When everyone looked around, they saw a woman pushing through the crowd and coming in, followed by a handsome man and five armored guards.The woman took a deep look at this side, but when she came to the young Taoist priest, she said proudly: "You alone are not worthy of knowing his name, and dare to mention his master."

"Who are you?" The young Taoist priest felt a little jealous when he saw a woman who looked like a fairy standing in for Li Mu.

"I'm his apprentice, if you beat me, it's not too late to challenge him." The woman chuckled lightly.

Seeing this woman again, a warm feeling flashed in Li Mu's heart.At the moment, he silently looked at the woman to see what tricks she was playing again.

"He is your master!" The young Taoist said in surprise, and the monks around him were not surprised either.After all, given Li Mu's age, what qualifications does he have to be someone else's master?

"Wow, he is qualified to be a master at such a young age!" A disciple of the Tianji Sect looked at Li Mu enviously.The head of the Tianji Sect sneered, and said: "The woman is obviously joking, she was just playing with Taoist An."

"Oh." The disciple nodded with a knowing look on his face.
