The little old man opposite looked at the change of expression on Lin Xiao's face, and he saw something different about Lin Xiao.
"Hello everyone, Hu Tianlai is a step late. Please forgive me." The middle-aged man who came in was wearing more gorgeous and bright clothes. Lin Xiao saw that this man had a broad face and a bold smile on his face.
Lin Xiao felt cordial when he saw this person. This was not the cordiality of blood relationship or kinship, but the natural cordiality of this man, because everyone present felt the cordiality of this man, so the expression on his face
They all showed affection for this person at the same time.
This person couldn't help but feel proud when he saw that everyone in the hotel had a good impression of him.
Lin Xiao knew that this person used a psychological suggestion method, and because of his appearance, he was relatively popular with the public. This showed that this person was not really generous, but rather calculating.
"The reason why I invite you here today is because there is a monster on the mountain that often comes to the town to attack people, so I want to ask you to help people here get rid of it. I don't know if you have any opinions or suggestions," said the square-faced man.
.
"Monster? Can it eat people?" Someone asked in confusion. There is actually a monster in this place. No wonder this powerful man issued a recruitment order to gather all the people from the rivers and lakes who could come recently to this place.
"I know how to eat people, so I asked everyone to help me kill the monsters." Hu Tianlai said, but a serious flash of light made Lin Xiao discover it. Lin Xiao lowered his head thoughtfully, and the little old man opposite was groping with one hand.
He was stroking his beard as if he was thinking of something.
Lin Xiao decided not to take a trip into this muddy water. He didn’t know what kind of medicine the gourd named Hu was selling. Lin Xiao decided to leave as soon as he finished eating the eggs, but the fact was that he didn’t want to do it. Before Lin Xiao could
Xiao left, and Hu Tianlai spotted the little old man in front of Lin Xiao, and hurried over, "I didn't expect it to be you, old man, why are you here? I'm so honored." Hu Tianlai changed his upright temperament just now, and suddenly
Lin Xiao turned into a little pug next to the little old man. Lin Xiao looked very funny, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud.
"You kid, you said there is a monster on the mountain. What kind of monster is it?" the little old man asked. Seeing Hu Tianlai's appearance, the little old man felt unhappy for a while.
"It is said to be a monster with thorns all over its body. I don't know if there is any treasure here." Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Hu Tianlai's words.
"Baby?" Everyone was wondering, wondering what kind of treasure this monster was guarding? Lin Xiao was also staring at the man named Hu Tianlai, and Niudan had already eaten up all the cooked beef in front of him.
Niu Dan was holding the water glass and had just taken a sip of water. When he heard Hu Tian say that there was a treasure, the water in his mouth suddenly spurted out. The little old man saw that Niu Dan's water was about to be sprayed on his face.
The little old man pulled Hu Tianlai in front of him, and Niudan suddenly sprayed all the water in his mouth onto Hu Tianlai's face. At this time, Hu Tianlai was like a drowned rat, his hair was messy and dripping with water.
"Ah, you little brat, you actually ruined my elaborate dress today. Ah, I'm going to strangle you to death." Hu Tianlai became furious, and Niudan suddenly hid behind Lin Xiao. Unexpectedly, he got into trouble.
Everyone saw that Hu Tianlai had offended someone. These two people must have come from foreign enemies. It seemed that Lin Xiao seemed to be a man who had seen the world, but the big man behind him was so timid.
Niu Dan felt that everyone was looking at him, and he knew that he had caused trouble for Lin Xiao, but he really didn't do it on purpose.
"Master Hu." Lin Xiao felt a little awkward when he spoke, but now Lin Xiao had to apologize for Niu Dan's behavior. Niu Dan hid his tall body behind him, holding his clothes tightly with both hands. Lin Xiao did not expect that
Niudan will also have these times of fear. Of course, he will not be timid when facing the enemy, and what he is facing now is a human being.
"Huh?" Hu Tianlai found that what he just said was a bit surprising, and now he has returned to his true character as a hero, seeming to ignore Lin Xiao's words.
Lin Xiao found it funny, but he couldn't offend this person. Since this person was able to gather so many people, he must have some purpose and capital. "It's not my brother just now. Please bear with me. He is not
On purpose.”
"He didn't mean it, I did it on purpose, right?" Hu Tianlai didn't dare to confront the little old man directly, so he could only take it out on Lin Xiao and Niu Dan.
"Don't make things difficult for me, brother. It was the little old man next to you who pulled you a little bit before I sprayed you. Go find this little old man." Niudan rushed to Lin Xiao and met Hu Tianlai.
Stiffened.
The little old man who was looking at the silly smile on the side heard Niu Dan carrying him out, "Your child is from your own family. Which of your eyes saw me pulling him?"
"You clearly gave Hu Tian a hand just now, but now you don't admit it. You are still an old man. It's so embarrassing. You don't admit what you have done." Niu Dan continued.
Lin Xiao saw that the people in the restaurant were all looking at him and the others. He pulled Niudan aside and said in a deep voice to the little old man, "Senior, I did see what happened just now. Hero Hu wants to rely on us two brothers."
It doesn’t matter, my two brothers will just carry it. If there is anything you need us to do, just say it. As long as it doesn’t violate chivalrous morality, I will agree to it."
What Lin Xiao said made the little old man couldn't help but admire him. He stared at Hu Tianlai who was standing aside. Hu Tianlai was obviously taken aback when he heard what Lin Xiao said.
"I didn't expect that you guys have seen the world, so I won't embarrass you, but you two want to go into the mountains to kill people. This is everyone's wish." Hu Tianlai's eyes swept over everyone's faces.
He also looked like he was watching a good show.
Lin Xiao sighed heavily. Just now he wanted to stay away from this dispute, but he didn't expect to be involved again because of a trivial matter.
The little old man on the side saw that he had caused trouble for Lin Xiao and others. He stopped forward and raised his chest, "Boy, it's okay. Count me in. I'll go into the mountains with you to find monsters." Others were also a little bit a little confused.
He looked at this little old man in surprise. He was just joining in the fun. If it hadn't been for you just now, would these two boys have gone exploring in the mountains?
"You old man, please don't go join in the fun. They can go to hell. Otherwise, how can I explain to my master?" Hu Tianlai thought to himself that he had his own master in front of him, so it would be better not to let him go.
When Lin Xiao saw the little old man in front of him, he really felt good about him.
Lin Xiao smiled at the little old man, and the misunderstanding just now was gone. The little old man became even happier like a child who got a toy. Hu Tianlai's heart jumped up and down when he saw it. He didn't know what the uncle was thinking.
"Okay, then we'll go into the mountain tomorrow. I'll cover all the food, drink and accommodation for everyone here today." Hu Tianlai's bold voice sounded, and Lin Xiao felt disgusted in his heart, but neither he nor Niu Dan had any money, so now they have free money.
It's a good thing to be in charge of food and sleep. If you don't eat, you won't eat for free. If you don't take advantage of it, it won't be occupied. Well, it's a good thing.
The second brother served the hotel's signature dish, and Lin Xiao, the beef egg, and the little old man enjoyed it. The heroic woman on the side did not move her chopsticks, and kept staring at Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao seemed to have not seen her eyes. Lin Xiao didn't want to be emotional easily now. He was afraid that he couldn't bear the blow of losing again. For Xiu'er, he had feelings for him. Now the woman in front of him
, looks very distinctive, but Lin Xiao has no thought at all.
Hu Tianlai was almost hit by the waiter who was serving the dishes, but he wanted to maintain a good temper and not argue with the waiter. He was thinking, eat, eat, tomorrow you will all be sent to feed the monsters.
.When he thought about his uncle, he felt uneasy, but he couldn't remind him that if he told his uncle, he would tell everyone. Then wouldn't all the master's plans fail?
Lin Xiao lay down in the guest room of the tavern after filling his stomach with cow eggs. Lin Xiao couldn't sleep for any reason. His eyelids were twitching. He didn't know what danger there might be. Lin Xiao's intuition has always been accurate, but the danger is still unknown.
Is it dangerous to go into the mountain? Lin Xiao thought, there are only spiritual beasts and monsters inside, so he and Niudan should be able to protect themselves without any problem.
Lin Xiao thought of the bead around his neck. He couldn't practice at night for so long. The restricted night here seemed to cast a veil over the moonlight. Lin Xiao couldn't absorb the brilliance of the moon.
The little old man was also bored in his room. He walked out of the room gently and closed the door. When he saw that there were many people in the corridor, he pulled up his clothes and walked in the direction of Lin Xiao pretending to be serious.
Go.
"Knock, knock, knock." There was a knock on the door. Lin Xiao and Niu Dan jumped out of bed in a hurry. Who else would come so late?
Niu Dan walked to the door and opened it, only to see the little old man go into the room head first. Niu Dan wanted to close the door but couldn't, so he had to let the little old man in.
"What are you doing here?" Niu Dan asked angrily.
"Why can't I come?" the little old man asked.
"You," Niu Dan was about to say, but didn't know what to say.
"What are you doing? I'm not here to look at you, I'm here to look at him." The little old man looked at Lin Xiao with both eyes. Lin Xiao looked at himself. There was nothing funny about him. Why are you looking at me?
"I think you are not a mortal." The little old man said as if he was pointing.
"Why am I not a mortal?" Lin Xiao was confused when asked and said something incomprehensible.
"I am Ling Wuya, who is known as the wise old man. I can calculate and count." The little old man made a calculation gesture and actually started calculating.
