Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 121
There is an open space in the purple bamboo forest outside the city of Haojing.

In the eyes of mortals, this place is just a spacious open space, but in the eyes of monks, there stands the largest restaurant in Gaojing.

Wangxian Tower.

As the name suggests, you can see immortals in this restaurant, and you can also see many people who wish to become immortals.

However, today's Wangxian Tower is deserted and quiet, as if it really doesn't exist in the world at all.

"Is this the first customer stolen?"

Shopkeeper Xiao had a sad face, holding two expensive white jade balls in one hand, staring at the waiter with angry eyes.

The shop clerk lowered his head and replied with a bitter face: "Go back to the shopkeeper, No. 30 eight."

"Trash!" Shopkeeper Xiao, who used to be gentle and refined, cursed loudly for the first time in his life, and the white jade ball he was playing with in his hand was crushed into fine pieces.

"I, Xiao, is the descendant of the five-way God of Wealth, but I can't deal with a thief!"

"The shopkeeper... I am really not lazy. Ever since the guest came in, I have been staring at him without blinking, but the thief is still under my nose..."

Before the waiter could finish speaking, a steel-like palm slapped hard on the thin face, making a slap!
The waiter was slapped and turned around in a circle, then turned back to the original place.Although he felt aggrieved, he didn't dare to groan, so he could only groan secretly in his heart.

In the past six months, the treasures of guests in Wangxian Tower have been stolen.

Treasure thieves come and go like ghosts, come without a trace, and go without a trace.

So far, Xiao Er doesn't even know whether the thief is a man or a woman, a man or a ghost, and just watched the magic weapons disappear out of thin air before his eyes.Those magic weapons are all priceless treasures that no amount of money can buy.If it weren't for the high reputation of Shopkeeper Xiao, the signboard of Wangxian Tower would have been demolished by the angry owners.

Half a year ago, Wangxianlou's business was booming, and monks from all walks of life would not have a seat if they didn't make a reservation in advance, but now there are fewer and fewer customers, and they hardly see a single guest every day, which shows that the reputation of Wangxianlou has almost been ruined.If this continues, Wangxian Tower will close sooner or later.

Shopkeeper Xiao looked at the pitiful waiter, and couldn't help sighing.Angry is angry, he knows in his heart that even the owner of his dignified fairy family's holy land can't do anything about it, let alone a shop assistant.But he never dreamed that he would fall into the hands of a sneaky person.

After taking a sip of herbal tea, shopkeeper Xiao tried to calm down the anger in his heart, and asked:
"Where is the sacred thing that was stolen today? How is it doing?"

"A very evil young man, he looks to be in his 20s. He doesn't feel a trace of mysteriousness at all, he seems to be a mortal."

"A mortal?" Shopkeeper Xiao closed his eyes slightly, and then shook his head, "There is an obscuring barrier outside the Wangxian Tower, and mortals can't see it at all. This person must have a cultivation level above the eighth stage of Xuanqing, or he has practiced something. A crooked technique."

The waiter in the shop showed a look of embarrassment, thinking that shopkeeper Xiao's five realms of Xuanqing cultivation, if he is really an expert above the eighth realm of Xuanqing, if the other party gets angry at the poor defense of the restaurant and causes him to lose some ancient artifacts, shopkeeper Xiao might sell it. Xianlou couldn't afford it either.

Shopkeeper Xiao continued to ask: "Since you have been staring at him just now, what kind of person do you think that person is?"

The shop waiter bowed his head and recalled for a while, and said: "... very calm. I saw that after he found out that he was stolen, he continued to order wine and food, and he ordered expensive ones. He drank all the precious wines that have been stored for hundreds of years here. It's almost done. He drank for three full hours, and now he's still drinking there alone."

"It seems to be a drunkard, and a little clever drunkard..."

"Shopkeeper, let's stop taking money from him, so as not to offend him."

Shopkeeper Xiao gritted his teeth, and said as if making up his mind: "Give me a jar of good wine, and I'll meet him."

With a creak, the door of the back hall of Wangxian Tower slowly opened.

Sitting in the corner was a young man wearing a Meteor Crane cloak. His figure was covered by shadows, so it was hard to spot if one didn't look carefully.

Shopkeeper Xiao held a jar of century-old wine and walked slowly towards the young man.The footsteps under his feet did not make a sound, which seemed a little strange.

The young man half-closed his eyes, and saw Shopkeeper Xiao put an altar of immortals upside down on the table, slowly opened one eye wide, and a drunken smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Good wine."

Shopkeeper Xiao squeezed out a smiling face of a businessman, and said: "My surname is Xiao, and I am the shopkeeper here. I am under the tutelage of Zhaobao Tianzun Xiao Sheng. May I ask your name? What is your family? Where is the cave?"

"Long-awaited, long-awaited." The young man replied drunkenly: "Junior Su Ji has no family, no sect, no cave, only a wooden box, which disappeared just now."

"Wooden box?" Shopkeeper Xiao glanced at the waiter.The waiter nodded.

Shopkeeper Xiao continued to ask: "Where did you put Mr. Su's wooden box just now?"

Su Ji dipped his finger in the wine, drew a square on the table, pointed to the square and said:

"It was put here just now. I raised my head and took the first sip of the wine, but when I lowered my head, it was gone. Oh! By the way... and a lot of the coils that I originally had on my body also disappeared."

Shopkeeper Xiao pondered for a while, poured a glass of wine for Su Ji, and said, "Blame me for being negligent and not greeting well. Mr. Su, this meal is my treat."

Su Ji glanced around, and found that there were only shopkeeper Xiao and the waiter in the restaurant, and he couldn't help saying meaningfully: "I'm afraid there is no more cost-effective deal in the world than this, right?"

Shopkeeper Xiao frowned tightly, and there was a sharp light in his eyes, but it dimmed again in an instant, and he asked softly, "What does Mr. Yi mean?"

After a while, Su Ji took a deep breath and said with a relieved smile:

"Forget it. If you lose something, no matter who you blame, you can't come back by yourself..."

Shopkeeper Xiao's frown furrowed instantly.

"thanks for treatment."

After saying that, Su Ji was about to step out of the threshold when he suddenly saw a red smoke rising from under his feet, and quickly retracted one foot.

After the red smoke dissipated, a green Qinan wooden box suddenly appeared on the ground.

Shopkeeper Xiao and the waiter widened their eyes at the same time, staring straight at the wooden box.

"Is this the wooden box lost by the young master?" Shopkeeper Xiao asked.

Su Ji didn't answer, but silently picked up the wooden box, opened it, and saw that the bamboo-leaved green snake was still curled up inside, sleeping peacefully.In addition to the snake, there was also a piece of white cloth in the box, exuding a faint fragrance.A line of delicate words was neatly written on the cloth:

"Liar, shameless little thief! Penniless, why bother? Don't think that this girl will take the blame for you!"

You are obviously a thief, but you still call someone else a thief?Su Ji smiled wryly, originally he wanted to visit the restaurant where he agreed to meet Mu Lingyu three months later, but he never thought that he would encounter such a troublesome thing.

Shopkeeper Xiao watched Su Ji's reaction intently from the beginning to the end, turned his gaze to the white cloth, and asked, "What is written on the cloth?"

"It's nothing..." Su Ji coughed a few times on purpose, spit on the white cloth and crumpled it into a ball, "This little thief knows he can't offend me, so he returns the things, please don't blame me."

Shopkeeper Xiao looked directly at Su Ji with suspicion. "Since the thief is afraid of Your Excellency, why only return the box, but not the coil?"

Su Ji was slightly taken aback.The waiter seemed to understand something, looked at Su Ji quietly, his face darkened.

There was a sense of chill in the silent atmosphere.

"Well..." Su Ji smiled lightly, "Maybe it's because he admires me, so he wants to keep it as a souvenir."

After finishing speaking, Su Ji turned around and took a step.

"Young Master, stay away!" Shopkeeper Xiao's face turned cold, and he said gloomyly: "Recently, restaurants have been stolen frequently, and this is the first time that things have been returned intact like today. Xiao boldly begged Young Master to explain this matter clearly. "

Su Ji turned around slowly, said with a smile: "So that's the case, then I should fully cooperate. Let's go into the room and talk."

Saying that, Su Ji politely stretched out a hand and made a gesture of please.

The moment shopkeeper Xiao turned around, Su Ji cut a gap out of thin air with one foot, and suddenly slipped in.

"Ah! He ran away!" The shop waiter exclaimed, "He and that thief are in the same group!"

"It doesn't matter whether he's a gang or not, he can't argue with anything now, he can only run away." Shopkeeper Xiao sneered, and said, "It's a pity, he can't run far..."
