Chapter 37 Jade Pendant

"It turns out it was Bai Luo who did it." Rong Que rubbed his brows and said helplessly.

Li Jianren and the others kept kneeling on the ground, which made Rong Que very depressed, and said: "Get up, Bai Luo is confused. He saw it wrong. Let's go back quickly." After saying that, he didn't care about Li Jianren and the others.

He jumped and rushed towards the exit of the Fire Demon Mountain Range.

Seeing that Rong Que had left, Li Jianren and his group stood up and looked at Rong Que's back. Li Jianren said with some emotion: "I didn't expect this. This period is really a time for masters.

I met a mysterious master a few days ago, and now I've met another one. Are all the masters running around now?"

After hearing what Li Jianren said, the people around him looked at him strangely. One of them laughed and cursed: "Why haven't I seen you become a master?"

Everyone burst into laughter and then chased in the direction of Rong Que.

In the evening, Kuedou City is a very lively place. Due to the gathering of warrior hunters, all the inns will be a noisy scene. Tables are filled with liquor and a large group of people are noisily drinking.

People like them, who have eaten one meal without another and may be killed by monsters at any time, of course have to enjoy today's blessings to the fullest. They will never worry about gold coins. If the money is gone, they will make money again. The worst they can do is eat a few pieces of dry food.

.

When Rong Que returned to the inn, he frowned in discomfort. He had never experienced such a noisy atmosphere. He had always been the eldest young master and never had that kind of opportunity. When he was practicing with Kuang Yuanlang,

Only Kuang Yuanlang and the monsters accompanied me. It was only now that I went out to practice alone that I realized that the world is really colorful, including clingy young ladies and such crazy inns.

I squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the stairs. Unexpectedly, a drunken man rushed up to me with a "whoop", and shouted: "You haven't finished drinking, you... are not allowed to leave, and you will be fined three more drinks."

"Your Excellency is drunk and has mistakenly recognized the person." Rong Que's mouth twitched and he carefully pushed the big man away.

The big man rubbed his confused eyes and stared at Rong Que for a long time. Then he slapped the table and said, "Who are you fooling? It's you. Come on, we haven't finished drinking yet." With that, he grabbed Rong Que.

Que held on and walked towards a table.

Rong Que was really helpless and embarrassed to refuse such a warm invitation. He rubbed his brows, supported the big man and walked with him until he came to a table where several people were already lying down.

The drunk man picked up a jar of wine on the table and handed it to Rong Que. Because he handed it too hard, the wine spilled. Rong Que immediately dodged to avoid the spilled wine, and then immediately reached out to take the wine jar.

He was afraid that if the drunk man accidentally spilled it into his mouth, it would be a big deal. He knew that he could get drunk even if he drank.

After handing the wine jar to Rong Que, the drunkard's body went limp with a "pop" and he lay down, and together with several people at the table, got under the table.

Rong Que shook his head, put down the wine jar, turned and walked towards the stairs, preparing to go back to his room to take a rest before setting off for Longping City tomorrow.

Just when Rong Que turned around and walked less than two steps, a voice came from behind: "Young man, come over and have a few drinks with me."

The sound was not loud, but it was not covered by the surrounding noise. It was as if this sound and the noise in the inn were in two different worlds, without any contact at all.

Rong Que turned his head and looked at the source of the voice. He was an old man with long white hair draped over his shoulders. Although his face had a few wrinkles, it did not have the twilight color that an elderly person should have. His eyes were a little cloudy, but they gave him a beautiful expression.

There is a deep sense of sharpness in people. The most strange thing is that the old man's beard is as white as snow, about several feet long, and it is so long that it needs to be tied to his body in order to walk normally.

Rong Que looked at the old man with some strangeness, and found that he could not see through this old man's state. If he was not a mortal, he must be a master of decision-making, and the strange sound just now was not something ordinary people could do.

After bowing to the old man as a junior, Rong Que asked with some confusion: "Senior, do you know me?"

The old man smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Can't I buy you a drink if I don't know you?"

"Of course I don't mean this, junior. It's just that I don't drink often, so I'm afraid my seniors will laugh at me for my drinking capacity." Rong Que scratched his head in embarrassment.

The old man smiled, poured a small glass of strong wine for Rong Que, and said: "Young man, it is fate that I met you today, old man. After drinking this glass of wine, I will give you something as a gift."

The old man's voice was not loud, but his words were sonorous and powerful. Rong Que looked at the old man with some doubts, but he believed that he had never seen the other man. He was not afraid that the old man would poison the wine. With the old man's mysterious strength, he wanted to

Why bother killing yourself?

He took the small cup and looked at the old man, as if he wanted to see something from the old man's expression. Unfortunately, he didn't get any information.

Looking at the cup in his hand, Rong Que hesitated a little. Just when Rong Que hesitated, the old man spoke: "A man, if you don't dare to drink even a glass of wine, then I can only tell you that this world is not suitable for you.

.”

Rong Que sighed. It seemed that he would not be able to escape the glass of wine today. He gritted his teeth, raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay! Old man, I read you right. I have made your friend, old man." The old man said with a "haha" smile.

Just as the old man finished speaking, Rong Que swayed, the wine glass slipped from his hand, his body fell on the table with a "bang", and he fell asleep.

The old man was stunned. After a moment, he pushed Rong Que and said strangely: "Are you really drunk? I have never seen you drink like this before."

As the night progressed, most people in the inn were drunk, and some sober people helped their drunken companions stagger out of the inn. The waiter also helped help some unconscious guests back to their rooms.

The next day, the midday sun shone through the window, and the noise on the street gradually came. Rong Que woke up from his drowsy sleep, rubbed his tired eyes, glanced out the window, and said, "I

Just say you can’t drink, and you’re in trouble.”

At this time, the waiter's voice came from outside the door: "Sir, are you awake?"

"Well, you're awake, come in." Rong Que got up and realized that he was drunk last night and didn't even take off his clothes before going to bed. He smiled bitterly, got off the wooden bed, and stretched out.

The waiter entered the room, smiled warmly at Rong Que, and said: "Hey, guest, you were drunk yesterday, and an old man asked me to give this to you. He also said that you will have another chance.

We met." As he said that, the waiter took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Zhen Zhen.

"Sir, I'm going to get you some hot water to wash up right now, please wait a moment." The waiter said with a "hehe" smile and left.

After the waiter retreated, Rong Que looked at the jade pendant in his hand for a while. The jade pendant was red, round, and the size of Rong Que's palm. There was a mask carved on the front of the jade pendant, and there were some clouds floating around, as if from the clouds.

An expressionless face appeared in the middle, staring at the world. On the back was a mountain peak, also shrouded in clouds and mist, flowers, trees, waterfalls and flowing water. They were all painted so carefully, and the whole jade pendant exuded a breath of fresh air.

A soothing taste.
