Chapter 1: Shall we go out and fight?
It was September, and the continuous autumn rain washed away the scorching heat of midsummer.
"Alas, the wind is half gone, and the rain is all gone!"
In the south of Jinling City, in front of Zuixianlou, Wang Ye leaned against the door frame, looking at the deserted street, and said helplessly: "Business is bad again today!"
He had a handsome , dressed in a blue shirt, and his tall and straight body was muscular, solid and strong.
At first glance, he looks like a scholar of extraordinary bearing.
Turning his head to look at the guy who was dozing off beside him, he curled his lips and revealed a trace of helplessness: "Aji, this bastard, does nothing but sleep and eat. If it weren't for this guy's quick hands and feet, I would have fired him!"
"Oh, business is not good!"
"However, no matter how difficult business is, it is better than fighting with swords and intrigues..."
As he spoke, Wang Ye looked at the thick calluses on his palms and shook his head gently.
Wang Ye is not from this world.
As early as ten years ago, Wang Ye traveled to this martial arts world.
Just like the plot in the novel, Wang Ye had a miraculous encounter and practiced magical skills. It only took him ten years to become invincible in the world and became the notorious leader of a demon cult that shocked the world.
Perhaps it was because he was too lonely because of being invincible, or perhaps it was because he was tired of the intrigue and disputes in the martial arts world.
Wang Ye pretended to die during a righteous encirclement and suppression campaign, and the martial arts world has been harmonious ever since.
The Jianghu no longer has the notorious evil cult leader, but Jinling City has gained a greedy and lustful restaurant owner.
" Well, we'll be open for another two hours. If there are still no customers, we'll just close it!"
Recalling all this, Wang Ye said to himself, "There are two new girls in Yihong Court recently. They are very pretty with blonde hair and blue eyes. It's a good opportunity to have some fun while no one is around. Isn't it wonderful..."
As he spoke, a hint of lewdness appeared on Wang Ye's face, as if the two new girls were right in front of him.
"Boss, may I ask if there is a vacant room?!"
Just when Wang Ye was fascinated and daydreaming, a strange voice was heard.
Following the sound, I saw several figures standing in front of the inn.
These figures were wearing conical hats so their faces could not be seen clearly. They were dressed in tight clothes under straw raincoats, and they were holding spears and swords in their hands. They looked like knights roaming the world.
The city of Jinling connects to the Five Ridges by land and straddles three rivers. It is the largest city within a thousand miles in radius, with countless traveling merchants and travelers, as well as blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners who travel here.
Wang Ye, the innkeeper, is no longer surprised by this group of wandering knights.
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Hearing this, the wretched smile on Wang Ye's face instantly turned into flattery. He said to the people outside the door: "Of course there is an empty room. It's raining heavily outside. Let's come in and talk!"
As he spoke, Wang Ye bowed and welcomed these people into the inn.
If it were before, when Wang Ye was still the leader of the Demon Cult, this would naturally not be necessary.
But nowadays, for the sake of business, it’s not shabby.
"Give us three rooms."
After entering the inn, a man handed Wang Ye a small ingot of silver.
"okay!"
Seeing the silver, Wang Ye was delighted and said, "Dear guests, we have some excellent wine here. It's raining heavily in this autumn, why don't you have a pot of wine to drive away the damp and cold air?"
"Okay, give us a pot of Huadiao wine, two side dishes, and two pounds of mutton!"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, one of the men spoke.
"Okay, I'll get ready now."
At this time, Wang Ye responded and kicked Aji, who was still dozing off, awake: "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you only know how to sleep. Take these guests to the upper room upstairs to rest!"
"You better be quick. If you neglect the guests, I will deduct half a month's salary from you!"
"oh!"
Aji was kicked awake by Wang Ye, and his mind became clear. After responding stupidly, he said to the men, "Dear guests, please follow me!"
Having said that, he led a few men towards the guest rooms upstairs.
"You little brat!"
Looking at Aji's appearance, Wang Ye said in a low voice.
At the same time, he took out the silver the man had handed over, weighed it with his hand, and said in secret joy: "It's a full twenty taels of silver. I'm going to make a lot of money from this business!"
As he spoke, Wang Ye shouted to the kitchen, "Three stir-fries and two pounds of mutton!"
…
After a while, the men came down from upstairs.
One by one, they took off their straw hats and raincoats, revealing their true faces.
Each of these people had a resolute expression on their faces, their swords never left their hands, and their eyes were full of vigilance. After finding a place to sit down, they began to eat and drink without saying a word.
This made the already quiet inn even more eerie.
Obviously, these men were busy.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ye shook his head.
These youngsters can't even do the most basic camouflage...
"Shopkeeper..."
Just when Wang Ye was secretly lamenting the poor consciousness of this generation of martial artists, Aji came to his side and whispered, "These people are not normal!"
"What's wrong ?"
Hearing this, Wang Ye raised his eyelids and asked lazily.
"When I brought them to the guest room just now, I found that they were very alert, and there was something bulging in their arms. There was also a smell of blood on their bodies. These people must be..."
At this time, Aji said mysteriously.
"Stop!"
Before Aji could finish his words, Wang Ye interrupted him: "You have forgotten the rules I taught you, right? Do your job honestly. We don't care about the customers' affairs, and don't ask about them. If you offend the guests, I will beat you to death!"
"But……"
After hearing Wang Ye's words, Aji wanted to say something.
However, Wang Ye did not give him a chance.
"But that's bullshit!"
At this time, Wang Ye gave Aji a slap on the head: "Why are you so idle? Do you always use a spoon to taste the saltiness of a manure truck when it passes by the door?"
"I'm telling you..."
At this time, Wang Ye was ready to start a long speech to educate Aji.
"Luo Changtian, do you really think you are safe?!"
At this moment, a cold snort was heard.
Following the sound, I saw a man wearing a bamboo hat walking into the store. He looked at the men eating and drinking in the store and grinned, "Hand over your things if you know what's best for you. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The man's face was covered by black clothes under his bamboo hat, and even though water vapor was condensing on his raincoat, it couldn't hide the murderous aura emanating from him!
"Humph, it's really a dog-skin plaster, it never ends!"
Hearing this, a sturdy man drew his sword and sneered, "Unless I die, there is no way!"
"good!"
Hearing this, the man in black snorted coldly and said, "If that's the case, then I'll grant your wish!"
"Come out, everyone!"
Crash!
Following the man's order, eight men in black broke in through the window and surrounded Luo Changtian and his gang in an instant.
In the huge inn, the situation became tense in an instant!
"Dear guests!"
At this critical moment, a discordant voice came from the side: "Our shop is small and the profit is small. If you want to fight, can you please go out and fight?"
