Half-demon Raising Immortals

Chapter 7 Liang Yao Tea Tavern

"The Liangyao Teahouse is under renovation. It will open on October [-]th to welcome new and old customers."

A boy in a gray shirt was carrying a wooden box, standing at the door of the teahouse reading a notice posted on the wall.

He knocked on the door, but there was no response from inside.

Then he walked to the pastry shop next to him and asked, "Is there anyone in the Liangyao Teahouse next door?"

Mrs. Dian's fourth daughter just came out.

Her tongue is different from human beings, and she hasn't practiced the "Learning Tongue" spell yet, so she can't speak human words.

He gestured with both hands to signal the servant to follow her.

They went around to the back path, opened the back door of the teahouse and entered.

In the backyard of the teahouse, Lu Tong was lying on a deck chair basking in the sun, holding twenty half-foot-long black needles in his hand.

Under the sunlight, the surface of the black needle shone with a layer of metallic luster.

"Sier?"

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Lu Tong asked without looking back.

Since the teahouse was demolished that day, Mrs. Dian's fourth daughter came over every day.

He didn't bother Lu Tong when he came, and cleaned and cooked on his own.When Lu Tong asked Dahan to pour tea, she rushed forward and back.

Lu Tong didn't chase her away, and called her Si'er just like Mrs. Dian, and her full name was Dian Si'er.

"Clap clap clap."

Dian Si'er slapped four times, indicating that he came.

The boy in the gray shirt asked, "Is it Shopkeeper Lu? I'm from Xunzhi Bookstore, and the book ordered by Shopkeeper Lu has been printed."

Lu Tong immediately turned over and sat up, and greeted: "It's me, bring it here quickly."

These days, everything is over.

The body of Bird Feather was burned in a gold furnace.Only the feathers that had been sacrificially refined were not burned clean, leaving behind twenty black bone needles.

The storage sleeve left by the hoof was also opened, and the various magic tools inside made Lu Tong feel at ease.

The tea tavern has hired a bricklayer to work. Although Dahan is not smart and doesn't know how to build a house, outsiders don't know about it.He stood by and watched the workers at work, and no one dared to play tricks.

Apart from practicing, Lu Tong has almost nothing else to do every day.

Quiet and thoughtful.

When he wanted to learn something new, he realized that the knowledge left by the hoof was so lacking.

He doesn't know talismans, magic spells, fists, or even the places outside Yunying City, so he can only kill and harm others.

Lu Tong is very aware of the importance of vision, so he went out to buy books immediately.

It's just that I didn't expect that Yunying City's books were not only expensive, but also had to be pre-ordered if they wanted to buy them.

After paying the deposit, the bookstore finds someone to print and transcribe.

The boy went to open the box, took out a stack of books, and introduced them one by one: "Master Lu, please read, "Jie Zi", "Nine Heavens", "A Brief Introduction to the Sanbai Shenxu", "Hundred Treasures", "A Hundred Fights" "Records", "Records of One Hundred Times of Killing Monsters", "Dizhi·Yunying City", "Wei Bo's Travel Notes" are slightly abridged."

After Lu Tong settled the final payment, he couldn't wait to send the boy away, and quickly opened "Wei Bo's Travel Notes".

Good things are always missing.

Lu Tong decided that this book was the most worth reading.

After turning two pages, he frowned again and put down the book.

The first page is full of words, and at least half of every sentence is unknown.Although I know some characters, I have never seen such a combination of words, and I have no idea what it means.

Lu Tong sighed, changed a copy of "Jie Zi", and began to learn the characters of this world.

……

On October [-]th, the teahouse reopened.

The new teahouse has been built, and it has changed from a small shop on the first floor to a small building on the second floor.

The signboard of Liangyao Tea House was changed from a cloth flag to a solid wood plaque, which read "Liangyao Tea Tavern".

Lutong wore new clothes and new horseshoes.

Although the weather was bad, the sky was overcast and the sky was covered with cool wind.

But people are in good spirits on happy occasions.

He stood at the door and greeted loudly with a red face: "Thank you for your support, relatives and friends. Today is enough wine and meat, please come in!"

The boy from the Liu family sneaked in with a few classmates.

"Stinky boy, what are you running for! Congratulations hooves... No, it's Shopkeeper Lu."

The story of Lu Tong's reading and recognition has spread among the neighbors, and everyone knows that he gave himself the personal name "Lu Tong".

Tiejiang Liu handed over a copper elephant money pot the size of a washbasin, and said with a smile: "The wealth is coming in!"

Hoof has bought a lot of magical artifacts from Blacksmith Liu, and they have a very good relationship.

Lu Tong also often went to chat with Liu Tiejiang, inquiring about all kinds of rumors about the east, west, north and south, and scattered sects, and the relationship became closer.

He smiled and took the bronze elephant and handed it to Dahan, saying: "Lao Liu, I have prepared a jar of good wine for you and put it on the counter."

"Don't tell me sooner!"

Tiejiang Liu immediately pushed away the people next to him and rushed in, running faster than his kid.

Wang Cheng and Ku Meiqin came here together.

The two had just got married not long ago, and they were in pairs every day, wishing they could stick together.

Ku Meiqin took out a wooden box and handed it to Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng smiled at Ku Meiqin, took another look, then turned his head reluctantly, handed over the wooden box and said, "Congratulations, shopkeeper."

Lu Tong took the wooden box and saw a pattern of herbal medicine painted on it, his face changed a little: "It's too precious."

Wang Cheng subconsciously looked at Ku Meiqin.

Ku Meiqin rolled her fox eyes and said with a smile, "It's not heavy at all. On the day we got married, the shopkeeper gave me a huge gift. We should have come to visit the shopkeeper long ago."

Lu Tong didn't refuse any more.

On the day the two got married, Lu Tong just opened the storage pocket left by his hoof, and his net worth skyrocketed instantly.

In addition, Hoof has never received an invitation card, so he doesn't know how many gifts to give.

In the end, Lu Tong gave a magic weapon used by Hoof, which turned out to be the most showy gift of the day.

Not only was he invited to the main seat for a meal, but he also got to know several aunts who had daughters waiting to be married.

Lu Tong put the herbs in his pocket, and said to the two of them: "There is a private room on the second floor, you go up first, and we will discuss about the medicinal tea later."

"The shopkeeper is busy first."

Lu Tong didn't have many acquaintances, and the neighbors all went in after a while.

Only he and Dahan were left standing at the door.

He turned to look at the plaque, feeling an uncontrollable joy in his heart.

Tens of thousands of feet rise from the ground, and this tea tavern is the starting point for him to turn around in Yunying City!
After looking up for a few times, he suddenly felt dizzy, hurriedly supported the pillar next to him, and smiled in his heart: This is really overwhelmed by joy.

Just as Lu Tong was thinking about it, he turned his head and saw Dahan pressing down on him like a wall of flesh.

"Dahan!"

Dahan fell straight down without any reaction, pressing Lu Tong under his body.

Dahan is seven feet two tall, almost half as tall as an ordinary person.He was covered in snow-white fat, and when he stood still, he looked like a big snowman with a pig's head piled up in winter.

Lu Tong was crushed underneath, his head was sunk in the fat, and he couldn't breathe at all.

But lying on the ground, he finally felt something was wrong.

The ground was undulating, and there was a "rumbling" sound deep underground.

This is……

earthquake!
Lu Tong pushed Dahan away with all his strength, and sat up on the ground only to find that the street was already full of people.

Dahan lay on the ground, sticking out his tongue from his mouth, mumbled: "Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy."

"Treasurer Lu, so you are hiding here, I said why can't I find you!"

Tiejiang Liu hugged the wine jar and pulled Lu Tong up.

Lu Tong leaned against the pillar and complained, "Why did I catch up with today's earthquake?"

"It's not an earthquake."

Tiejiang Liu leisurely took a sip of his wine, and continued, "It's going to be foggy."

Fog?

Lu Tong was a little puzzled at first, and after serious thinking, he finally found an old story from Hoof's memory.

Nine years ago, also shook a bit.

After that incident, the number of monsters and half-monsters in Yunying City decreased by half.
