final catastrophe

Chapter 56 4. Inn

Chapter 56 4. Inn (for collection, recommendation)
When Xia Ji returned to the nearest town in Guanzhong, the Rujia inn was already full, and there was no room for one more person.

The shopkeeper's attitude was good, he apologized again and again, and he didn't expect that there would be more people suddenly today.

Xia Ji shook his head, and didn't care about it, so he threw a piece of silver and asked Xiao Er to prepare some food and drinks. He didn't care, the big deal was that in the lobby of the restaurant, with the bonfire raised in winter, he huddled with the guests from the north and the south.

Anyway, it doesn't make much difference to him whether he sleeps or not, it's just a hobby.

After a long time, he waited until Xiaoer.

It's just that the latter didn't come over with the food and drink, but apologized with a wry smile on his face, "The cold-cut beef, dry goods, and drinks are all included. I'm really sorry, guest officer."

Xia Ji turned his head to the side, looking at the wine and meat on several large round tables not far away, and the dripping soup.

Xiao Er followed his gaze, and then whispered: "Guest officer, I don't think you are from the local area, but those are the sons and brothers of the Guanzhong Chamber of Commerce, and they are bringing the guards to the party. After tonight, maybe once the Ziwei gate is opened, it will all be over."

Xia Ji nodded and said, "Then pour me a bowl of hot water."

Xiaoer did not delay this point for too long, and soon he held a stack of bowls, put some salt particles in the bowls, and then took a large teapot with white smoke, filled them one by one, and turned to the guests who gathered around the campfire They said: "Everyone, feel wronged."

Immediately, a big bearded man glared at the distance, panting heavily, then suddenly slammed the table, got up and said in a weng voice: "Ge Laozi, they eat meat and drink, we just drink salt water dryly? Lao Tzu If you have money, I can afford it!"

Xiao Er wanted to cry, but said: "Master, those people are not easy to offend."

The bearded man frowned: "They're all a bunch of arms and two legs, what are you talking about?"

After finishing speaking, he cleaned up all the hot water on the table, rolled up his sleeves, and then got up and walked forward.

But after walking a few steps, two big men who looked like iron towers walked out from behind the shadows of the black pillars on the edge of the banquet tables. Their gnarled muscles seemed to be intertwined between their arms, and a diagonal cross was crossed on their backs. Look, there are two giant axes.

Two big men with iron towers looked down on him coldly.

The big bearded man swallowed, but he couldn't help but stop. He didn't drink, so he couldn't get excited by the wine, so he could clearly recognize the gap.

After a little weighing, he snorted coldly as if saving some face, then turned back to the campfire, but never stepped forward.

The night wind howled outside the window, and came in through the crack of the door. The bone-chilling cold made everyone gather around the campfire again.

Looking back at the other side, there is a staggering mix of toasts and cups, which is very lively.

Xia Ji was far away from the crowd, sitting alone outside the crowd.

Suddenly, among the group of noisy people in the distance, someone got up crookedly, and walked towards here with a little bit of alcohol.

After taking two steps, he stopped suddenly, then turned his head to look at Xia Ji like admiring a strange animal.

After turning back and forth a few times, he suddenly burst out laughing.

The young man in gorgeous clothes pointed at Xia Ji and laughed, panting from the laughter, out of breath.

Everyone's eyes were focused on this, whether they were eating wine or gathering around the campfire, they didn't know what this son of the Guanzhong Chamber of Commerce was laughing at?
What's so funny about the young man he was pointing at.

That young man is not a monkey!
But the laughter of the gorgeously dressed boy seemed to ignite something, and the drinkers on the other side of the wine table laughed inexplicably.

The inexplicable laughter seemed to be ridicule, which was unstoppable.

Xia Ji said lightly: "Is this funny?"

When the son heard the words, a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and he didn't speak, but he laughed louder, out of breath, and even started to pat the table.

Xia Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, how long, how long have no ants dared to smile at him so presumptuously?
Soon, another elegant young man in a royal blue robe came over and said, "Zheng Kefan, why are you smiling so happily, let everyone have fun together."

While speaking, with a smile in his eyes, he looked at the sitting young man with a sizing expression.

The young master named Zheng Kefan stopped, raised his hand, pointed at Xia Ji, and said loudly: "Do you know who this person is?"

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused, he said slowly: "This person is the righteous man in Yinyue City, who is said to have resolved the catastrophe and saved everyone, Xia Ji, Master Xia!"

"Five days ago, he rode his horse to the Dragon King's Mansion, but somehow he couldn't stay in the Dragon King's Mansion, but came out by himself, and now he didn't expect to meet here!"

"Come, come, Master Xia, please sit down, and I will take everyone to toast you."

The way he spoke was very subtle, and he didn't mention things like marrying into the Dragon King's mansion or refusing to marry, but he used a set of out-of-context rhetoric to lead everyone's imagination to another direction.

It is easy for people to think, why did he come out of the Dragon King's Mansion empty-handed, because he was kicked out?
So since he was kicked out, are the previous rumors true or false?
Coupled with the rather downcast appearance at this time, it is even more suspicious.

From this point of view, this Zheng Kefan is worthy of having been in the chamber of commerce for a long time, and his methods are still good.

He got a letter from that goddess early in the morning, so he naturally wanted to humiliate Xia Ji well in exchange for a chance to date.

No matter how famous he is, he is just a martial artist who has not even broken through to the extreme.

What are you afraid of?Why should you care about face?
Zheng Kefan's face was flushed, looking at this boy who was about his age, even two years younger, and said frivolously: "Master Xia, please."

He pointed casually, seeing that no one moved out of the way, he clapped his palms and said, "Goofy, you are deaf, move aside!"

As soon as the words were finished, a sharp-tongued, quite clever servant hurriedly moved aside, revealing a vacant seat for one person.

Zheng Kefan nodded in satisfaction, pointed to the servant's table and said with a smile, "Master Xia, you're welcome!"

Xia Ji didn't panic, annoyed, or angry, and said flatly: "Thank you for your kindness, but the bandits are still being suppressed outside the pass, and I still need to stay awake. If there are bandits sneaking into the city, maybe I can support one or two."

Zheng Kefan frowned, "Look down on me?"

Xia Ji squinted his eyes, but didn't speak any more.

Zheng Kefan laughed again, but saw that Xia Ji had turned into a gourd, so he gave up.

With strange gazes and roaring laughter, the young man sat on the edge of the hustle and bustle, sitting on the edge of the bonfire.

It seems that the excitement and light do not belong to him.

Sitting like this is the middle of the night.
