In the colorful Hongchen Inn, the drizzle is like smoke, and the sound of the flute has finished.
Zhang Liang and his party met with the head of the Taoist Tianzong and began a fiery first confrontation.
Zhang Liang's eyes flickered to look at the white-haired figure, and his voice came again.
"In this world, the future is always attracting the present, and all things that are moving towards each other with yin and yang will always attract the strongest when they are close, so the convergence becomes inevitable."
;amp;#8226;amp;#8226;amp;#8226;Isn’t that right, young man?”
A soft smile appeared on Zhang Liang Ruyu's face. He retracted his gaze from the white-haired back and seemed to say the following words to Xiaoyaozi at the table: "In the inevitable gathering, the numbers are connected.
, The ink continues, the direction in which we and our predecessors are heading, and the wonderful results that will be produced by the combination, must have a wonderful relationship with the future!" In his words, there is already a sign of book business.
"The Qi is like the Dharma, and the ink is not there. The young man's talk is extraordinary and refined. He must be a person who nourishes the heart and nature. To cultivate the heart, you should not be good at having few desires, but to be pure. Am I right?" Master Xiaomeng's voice has always been kind.
Indifferent alienation, whether it is directed at Xiaoyaozi or talking to Zhang Liang.
The two figures from behind were communicating from a distance like this. It seemed that neither of them had any intention of looking at each other head-on and witnessing each other's grace with their own eyes.
"What the senior said is true." Zhang Liang's expression was calm and steady. While talking, he glanced around and realized that none of the people dining seemed to pay attention to him and Xiaoyaozi.
The white-haired figure suddenly lowered his accent and asked in a slightly candid tone: "I don't see it, why does the young man bring with him an aura of secular indulgence as soon as he steps into this inn?"
Zhang Liang was slightly stunned. The next moment, he calmly replied: "Junior people never deny that they are secular people. Being in the secular world, they are bound to be bound by the secular world."
''Wonderful!'' Master Xiaomeng's tone was steady, and it was hard to tell whether his words were praise or ridicule. Zhang Liang smiled faintly, disapprovingly, and heard that he suddenly changed the person he was speaking to, and spoke to Xiaoyaozi opposite him.
They started chatting, "Xiaoyao, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I heard that you are doing something great recently?"
''It doesn't matter whether it's great or not, I only care about whether what I do is correct or not.'' Xiaoyaozi half-eyed, his voice mixed with the sound of wind as he greeted the people in the distance, ''I came here two thousand miles away.
Just find the right person and do the right thing.''
''The right person? The right thing?''
At this time, a waiter brought the meals that Zhang Liang and the others had ordered one by one. The guy who came was a handsome young man. At first glance, he looked a bit childish. Although he was dressed in civilian clothes, judging from his appearance, he had a handsome face.
, it is difficult for people to associate him with the low status of a man.
The young boy frowned slightly and looked at the people in front of him with his bright black eyes. He felt that the two outstanding guests in front of him were very strange. When they spoke, they did not respond with eyes or expressions, as if they were talking to themselves.
"That's right!" Xiaoyaozi responded to Master Xiaomeng opposite in front of the boy.
"Talking to yourself?" After the food and drinks were served, the young man glanced at Xiaoyaozi, and when he turned around, he muttered, "Talking to yourself before eating? Is there anyone with such a weird temperament?"
As soon as the little boy left, the white-haired figure over there suddenly called out in a loud voice: "Why hasn't my food been served yet?"
"Huh? This•amp;#8226;•amp;#8226;"
This table ordered a little earlier, and now that person has been neglected, he seems to be losing his temper. This is not good. Just when he was embarrassed, he suddenly heard the handsome young guest behind him say to him: "It doesn't matter.
Let's give this to that gentleman first!''
The boy seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. Under his tall nose was a pair of lips with a teasing smile, exuding the breath of sunshine. He politely thanked Zhang Liang, picked up the dish again, and walked around half a circle angrily.
Floor railing.
"Sir, your dishes are here." He arranged them politely, thinking that he should go to the kitchen immediately to urge the people at the other table, but the guest at the table was dissatisfied and said: "The meal is over, the dishes are here."
What's the point of being talented?''
The little boy had a relaxed expression on his face, hesitating and unable to respond, so he had to lower his head to accompany me.
''I'm thirsty, please bring me some water to quench my thirst!'' The white-haired figure made such a request, and his tone suddenly became cold. This really surprised the young man, but he could only lower his attitude and serve the guests.
To serve, he immediately walked around half a circle of the building to pick up the kettle. When he ran to Zhang Liang, the man deliberately raised his voice and shouted: "How long are you going to make me wait? Just bring what they have on the table!"
The little boy took the kettle from Zhang Liang embarrassedly, but the white-haired figure from behind said: "I don't want it anymore, the weather is a bit cold, go get a pot of the warmest tea."
The boy took a breath, his face changed color instantly, and he stared at the back figure.
"Eh? There's still one dish missing from the dish I ordered!"
The boy said nothing and patiently went to the kitchen, but the man shouted again: "Wait a minute, I think it's better to get the water from their table. I'm really thirsty now."
The young and angry boy couldn't stand it any longer. He didn't ask for the food. He just picked up the kettle and strode around the railing. He threw it heavily in front of the man and asked in a low voice: "You must be satisfied now, right?"
''Where's the food?''
"No more!" The boy tried his best to soothe his breath.
"No more? Or not? If an inn doesn't provide food, why call it an inn?" the white-haired figure asked in surprise.
"Yes, old gentleman, if you are not satisfied with the food, the inn can return your deposit for this night at its discretion, and then go to the wilderness to spend the night!" Maybe you are young, not experienced in the world, and can't control it.
Temper, the young man's tone sounded very rude, but his heart became happy at this moment, thinking that theirs was the only inn within a radius of more than ten miles, and if he wanted to stay, he would not even think about making trouble, and he couldn't help but push people away. When he encountered this
The stingy guest officer refused to be polite when he shouldn't, so it was best to let him go. But what he didn't expect was that in the face of his tough attitude, the other party's tone suddenly softened.
"Hehehe! Quite satisfied, you can go away, I want to eat!"
The young boy was stunned. The sudden gentle tone made him a little surprised and a little disappointed. He nodded with a smile and walked away slightly annoyed.
Zhang Liang suppressed a smile on his face. He had heard that Master Xiaomeng had a capricious temper earlier, and he learned the lesson today. He planned to continue the conversation with him and look for opportunities to bring the content to the right track, but that person was not a good person. Zhang Liang and Xiaoyaozi talked to him.
, just turned a deaf ear and ate a small portion of the food on the plate in silence, then stood up and walked into the room.
Zhang Liang and Xiaoyaozi looked at each other speechlessly, wondering what Master Xiaomeng was staggering about. The way he made things difficult for the young man just now seemed to be deliberately done to them, and it was very suspected of criticizing Huai. They used this to express their feelings.
Is his weird temperament a deliberate attempt to distance himself from them? Or does he have an ulterior motive?
At this time, a rude voice came up from downstairs.
''What?''
This piercing sound, which was so high in decibels, shocked the entire audience and attracted everyone's attention. Everyone thought that another uninformed guest had arrived and was deliberately making things difficult for the little girl at the front desk.
He was a man with a stubble all over his mouth. Judging from his lazy appearance and rude voice, he could only tell that he was over 40 years old. His skin was slightly tanned, and his clothes were thin and slovenly. He wore almost only a coat.
Most of the flesh on his front was exposed, and the first impression he gave people was that of a country bumpkin. His every move gave off a ruffian vibe. At this moment, he was staring at the girl in embarrassment. He asked in surprise: "You actually
That I don’t have enough money for accommodation?”
''Yes!'' The girl didn't look at him, pushed the three copper coins back to the man, and said calmly: "Next one."
"Wait a minute," the man's voice became louder again, and he glanced at the people behind him. Frustrated, they waited a little longer, then looked directly at the girl, pushed the money over again, with a look of arrogance and self-reliance on his face, and asked:
"Then tell me, what delicious food can I eat with so much money?"
The customers lining up behind him immediately looked at him with disdain. They never expected that such a poor person would dare to come to such a luxurious place to challenge the beggar with a few copper coins.
Jump.
The girl stopped what she was doing, raised her eyes and looked at him calmly, her clear eyes sparkling with aura. She curved her mouth and joked: "Uncle, please stop making trouble. I will give you a bowl of boiled water for free. You can drink it."
Just leave as soon as you’re done!''
The negated man narrowed his eyes, and his surprised expression turned into a look of disdain. He rested his hands on the counter, looked at the girl casually, and then explained with a serious look: "Girl, how can you not open an inn?"
Living for others? Maybe it seems to you that my money is a little limited, but you have to know that I traveled nearly half a month to come to your inn, and now I use all my money generously
The land expenses here are all the money, not part of it. In this way, I give your inn a huge face. Even if you spend money, you can't buy it. I'm too lazy to let you spend money. I only need
Just provide me with food and accommodation, do you think what I said makes sense?"
"Then I should still thank you?" The girl looked at the interesting man in front of her with great interest, as if she was thinking about something very novel.
The middle-aged man stretched his neck and reached the girl's ear. He acted very intimately and said in a low voice: "You know what? Brother, I am not a poor man. Don't look at me dressed like this. I have a bag full of stuff hidden under my bed."
of gold''.
The girl squinted her eyes and advised softly: "If you don't pull your head back, I'll make you look good."
The man was not threatened, so he said "It's gold" and then retracted his head, expecting the girl's next reaction, but he heard the girl skip the pause procedure and suddenly said:
''Then go back and get it quickly!''
''What?'' The man was a little stunned, "Impossible, why? Let me tell you, I have been away from home for half a month now, and if you ask me to go back, I have to walk for another half month. Then your inn
Wouldn’t it be a month before you can earn my money? If I don’t come, wouldn’t you be completely unable to earn my money? Why don’t you just be accommodating first? A true man knows what he says. You’ll give me accommodation on credit today. Next time
When I come back next time, I will pay back double the amount. If I don't come, then when I become famous all over the world, I will pay back ten times the amount, okay?" His speech was very generous, and that arrogant and self-reliant look appeared again, but
The girl seemed unmoved.
Many people behind him began to urge, but he calmly told them to "be quiet and don't make any noise."
When he met the girl's indifferent gaze again, he knew that she was about to issue an eviction order. He smiled dryly, then glanced around the area sideways, and suddenly fixed his gaze on the second floor. His eyes lit up and he shouted happily: "
Ha, brother, is it fate? I never expected that you would be here too.''
Zhang Liang, who was upstairs, frowned slightly, feeling surprised. His eyes connected with the man's, and he asked doubtfully: "'Is he talking to me?" Upon seeing it, the man came towards him in a calm and generous manner.
