Chapter 72

There is a large flow of people in Jiangdu City, most of them are traveling from south to north, returning home for the New Year, most of them lead horses and donkeys, and carry large and small bags of luggage.

It can be seen that the law and order in Jiangdu City is good, and it is obvious that the officials here have done a lot.

It's a pity that it's just a small county, and it doesn't have much influence on the atmosphere of the whole world.

But at least one side is safe and the pure land is maintained.

Li Fei smiled at Xia Houjian: "You worked so hard to protect me for seven days and seven nights, first go to an inn to have a good rest, and reward yourself with a good meal."

Xia Houjian grinned and said, "It's what a disciple should do."

After several inquiries, the two came to the largest inn in Jiangdu County.

"Xiaoer, open two upper rooms and bring the best wine and food in your store."

The shop waiter hurriedly came up to him and said, "My lords, I'm really sorry, the cook has gone home for the New Year, the shop only serves vegetarian dishes now, look..."

Xiahou Jiandao: "It's okay, you just need to provide live poultry, I can do it myself, you can help me light the fire."

The waiter in the shop was happy: "That's no problem, but please pay the reservation fee first."

Xia Houjian reached into his bosom, took out an ingot of silver and threw it into the little second hand, saying: "First serve the good wine."

Seeing Xia Houjian's extravagant hands, the waiter in the shop immediately showed some courtesy, nodded and bowed and said, "I'll be here soon. The 'Jiu Yunchun' of the shop is famous far and wide, but there aren't many left."

Xia Houjian waved his hand and said, "Then bring it all up, and you won't miss the money."

"Alright, here we come."

Xia Houjian said to Li Fei: "Master, sit down for a while, I'll go get some food."

Li Fei nodded and said, "It's cold weather, just make a pot of hot pot, it doesn't have to be too much trouble."

"it is good."

The waiter in the shop looked at the two of them in surprise, one of them had just reached the crown, and the other looked almost old.

It's really strange that the younger one is the master and the older one is the apprentice.

But he didn't delve into it, just do his own thing well.

After the waiter brought up the remaining three bottles of Jiuyunchun, he took Xiahoujian to the back kitchen.

Li Fei poured the wine himself and tasted it.

It's really good, the alcohol content of this era is not low, drinking it is very warm.

Moreover, Jiuyunchun is also an ancient wine with a long history. It is called "Gujing Gongjiu" in later generations, and it is known as "Peony in Liquor". It is one of the eight famous wines in Daxia.

Xia Houjian moved very quickly, and within half an hour, a pot of fragrant hot pot was brought out.

Xia Houjian carefully sliced ​​the chicken and duck meat, removed all the bones, and boiled pure meat.

Put an earthenware stove on the table, burn charcoal in it, put the pot on the shelf, and the master and apprentice enjoyed the delicious meal.

While eating, another guest from afar arrived on a healthy horse, and the waiter hurried out to greet the guest, but the two new guests were a little uncomfortable.

"Xiao Er, is there any room?"

"Yes, yes, sir, please go to our shopkeeper and pay the order first!"

"I even left the horse, didn't I order money for you? Don't forget to feed my horse."

"Uh... well!"

After a while, a female voice sounded again, and what she said was exactly the same as that of the man before.

"Little Er, open a room."

"Okay, guest officer, please pay some reservation money first!"

"I even left the horse, what else do you worry about?"

"..."

"Take good care of my horse."

The shop clerk said disconsolately, "I got you."

Li Fei couldn't help but feel moved when he heard these two conversations. He probably knew what kind of plot he had encountered.

Xia Houjian subconsciously looked at the two people who entered the inn one after another, with a look of disdain on his face.

He judged almost instantly that apart from the horse, these two people probably had no money at all, otherwise they wouldn't talk about the horse.

If they were really two freeloaders, he wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson.

A man and a woman entered the inn, both of them looked good, but they were all dressed in shabby clothes, and the woman was wearing an ugly cloth cap.

As soon as the two of them entered the inn, they smelled a strong smell of meat, and couldn't help but feel refreshed.

The two sat at a table each, glanced at Li Fei and the two from time to time, swallowing secretly.

After the waiter in the inn set up the horses and entered the inn, the woman called out: "Xiaoer, bring me a pot of hot pot as well."

The waiter in the shop said awkwardly: "Guest officer, it's Chinese New Year, the shop doesn't have many ingredients, only some vegetarian dishes left, if you don't mind, I can only cook you a pot of vegetarian hot pot."

Unconvinced, the woman pointed at the table of Li Fei and the two, and said, "Then why do they have it?"

The waiter in the shop explained: "The guest officials don't know, these two guest officials are the meat that they clean up by themselves, and the shop only provides live poultry."

"If the guest officer is willing to do it himself, the younger one can help you light the fire, but you must pay the reservation fee first."

The woman hesitated when she heard the words, and waved her hands pretending to be impatient: "Forget it, I'm not good at craftsmanship, so you can help me make a pot of vegetarian food!"

The man over there also shouted: "Xiao Er, why is there nothing in such a big hotel, not even a piece of meat?"

The shop waiter explained again: "Everyone went home to celebrate the New Year, even our chef went home."

The man said helplessly: "Forget it, do you have wine?"

The waiter said: "Yes, may I take it for you?"

The man said: "I want a bottle of Jiuyunchun."

The waiter in the shop said: "Hey, sir, this wine has just been sold out, and the remaining few bottles were taken away by those two masters, why don't you change it to something else?"

"..."

When the man was speechless, Li Fei over there suddenly said: "You two, it's not easy for this New Year's Eve to be wandering outside."

"Meeting is fate, if you two don't mind, come over and have some food together!"

The two looked at each other, got up and sat opposite Li Fei and Xia Houjian.

Originally, Xia Houjian didn't like these two guys, because there was a high probability that they were going to eat for nothing.

But when his master opened his mouth, he had nothing to say, so he had to ask Xiao Er to add two more sets of bowls and chopsticks.

The two of them looked old Jiang Hu at first sight, they were not thin-skinned, and they didn't know what politeness was.

The man drank heavily and ate large pieces of meat, while greeting him familiarly: "Pang Yong, what do you call me?"

The woman also said: "My name is Xia Bing, thank you both for your hospitality."

Xia Houjian said indifferently: "Xia Houjian, this is the teacher of my family, and I respect and taboo Li Fei."

Pang Yong didn't react much, he just said "It's a pleasure to meet you", he just came all the way from the north, and he has never heard of the two names.

Xia Bing paused, and the expression on his face gradually became surprised.

She asked cautiously: "It is said that in recent years there has been a pair of master and apprentice, both peerless swordsmen, sweeping up bandits in the south of the Yangtze River, slaying demons and demons, and revered as sword gods and sword masters, could it be the two?"

Pang Yong also looked at the two in surprise, are they so famous?

Li Fei smiled slightly and said, "That's everyone's love, I'm ashamed to be a master and apprentice."

After confirming the identities of the two, Xia Bing was a little excited. She looked at the two with burning eyes and asked, "The two of you are here, are you also here to subjugate demons?"

Hearing what Xia Bing said, although Li Fei knew it well, Xia Houjian asked inexplicably, "Why are there monsters in Jiangdu City?"

"Uh……"

Xia Bing paused, and suddenly realized that they didn't come here specifically for the demons in Jiangdu City.

Li Fei said: "My master and apprentice have traveled all over the world. I just arrived in Jiangdu City today, and I haven't heard any rumors about demons."

As soon as Li Fei finished speaking, he saw a beautiful woman in brocade clothes coming in from outside the door, watching Pang Yong walk over with fixed eyes.
