In the next few days, Xiangmaozi still gritted his teeth and persisted in working in the kitchen.
Tired, really tired!
But she didn't dare to complain about being tired, lest people notice it. What if they kicked her out? ! Lemongrass is like a stubborn little donkey, working hard and not daring to relax at all.
It's not without its benefits that she works so hard.
Boss Chen secretly watched the girl for two days and was quite satisfied with the girl. He felt that she was willing to work and not just messing around. The master chefs in the kitchen were also quite satisfied with her. She could handle three assistants of cooks on her own, which was very important to her recently. This is good news for chefs who are getting busier and busier these days. Therefore, these days the master chefs are willing to fill her rice bowls with thick gravy, and occasionally put a few pieces of bacon on top. Chunyu was also satisfied. Xiangmaozi had always been very respectful to him, and would come to the front every morning and evening to help him, so that the little guy could relax a little more...
In this way, with hard work and hard work, Xiangmaozi won the recognition of everyone in Sixianlou and temporarily established a firm foothold. Even Sister-in-law Song is no longer picky about Lemongrass, her attitude is still cold, but she no longer deliberately seeks trouble.
Xiangmaozi gradually stretched out her arms and legs. After three or five days, the shopkeeper found two pieces of clothing for her that were not too shabby. Taking advantage of the night, she boiled a large pot of hot water and took a bath for herself and Xin Mao. Putting on the clothes given by shopkeeper Chen, he looked like a diligent and smart little waiter again.
Occasionally when the front hall is too busy, Boss Chen will arrange for Lemongrass to run errands and serve food. Don't underestimate this change, but because of this, Xiangmaozi can meet different people and hear different news every day, which has greatly broadened his horizons.
In the past few days, fewer and fewer villagers have come around. Some found a place to stay in Yellowstone and gradually moved out. Others, due to cost issues, pack their bags and go to places farther away to see relatives and friends.
However, Sixianlou did not become idle because of the departure of the villagers. On the contrary, more people arrived one after another. They are different from the villagers!
They were all dressed in extremely gorgeous and exquisite clothes, with wide robes and long sleeves, elegant and elegant. The people who came were also strange and strange. Some people came on horseback. Those horses were all very handsome and extremely arrogant.
Some people came on foot, walking fast and steady, as if they appeared in the blink of an eye.
Others came with all kinds of strange beasts, including tigers with long horns and big birds with crests! They are all magical things that Lemongrass has never heard of.
There are men and women, old and young.
Everyone is handsome and elegant but has an arrogant demeanor.
Sixian Restaurant is the best restaurant in Huangshi Town. They always choose to sit here and ask a few questions before leaving. There is little need to sit down to eat or stay. But someone is needed to serve some tea and answer questions.
At this time, Chun Yu, the clever boy, needs to go up and deal with it, and the boss is also listening and talking. Lemongrass does the rest of the errands.
Chun Yu was extremely happy. These big shots were very grand in their actions, and would often drop a piece of silver as a reward to Chun Yu. Chun Yu naturally did not dare to leave the money in front of the boss. He would hand over the money to shopkeeper Chen afterwards. Shopkeeper Chen often accepts the money and rewards Chunyu with dozens of copper coins. Both of them are very happy.
Naturally, this kind of Qiao Zong'er who rewards and distributes money has nothing to do with Xiang Mao Zi. Maybe other people would be a little jealous, but Xiangmaozi was not. She was more concerned about the background of these people.
She once asked Chunyu quietly, "Brother Chunyu, who are these people?"
Chunyu received the reward, and he was in a good mood these days, so he was willing to show off to Xiangmaozi, "You don't know this! It's also true that except in our Sixian Building, it's not easy to see such big people anywhere else. They, He is an immortal!"
Immortal!
Lemongrass was shocked. They were those legendary immortals who were so high up in the sky that they could move mountains and seas and pick off stars!
Seeing Xiangmaozi's disbelieving eyes and fearful expression, Chunyu became even more proud, "Didn't you notice the difference between them? Look at their clothes and shoes, are they all very clean?"
After Chunyu's reminder, Xiangmaozi thought about it and found that it was indeed the case! These gorgeous-looking immortals, no matter where they come from, their clothes are extremely bright and spotless.
"That's because the immortal has a dust-removing spell on his body. He just needs to recite a small spell every day, and wow! The clothes will be clean and there will be no need to wash them anymore!" Chun Yu, the boy, boasted nonsense.
The ignorant country girl Xiangmaozi nodded and listened seriously, expressing great conviction.
The proud boy continued to brag, "Look, do those immortals who come to the store to rest not eat much?"
This is also true.
Despite the frequent visits of immortals recently, shopkeeper Chen also makes a lot of money. But in fact, they are free. Because most of the immortals just sit down and ask for news, and don't order anything to eat. Occasionally they ask for the best and most expensive tea, and they just touch their lips. The rest of the shopkeepers were reluctant to throw it away and drank it themselves.
Chunyu shook her finger, "That's because the immortals don't eat anything from our mortal world. What they eat is fresh fruits and spiritual food, and what they drink is all nectar and jade liquid! The immortals come to us purely because of our names. !"
Good name? ! Lemongrass doesn't understand.
Chun Yu said proudly, "You're so stupid, the name is Sixian Tower, it means Sixian Tower."
Regarding this, Xiangmaozi didn't believe it. What she was thinking was, if it was read as Death Immortal House, would the restaurant still be there? ! However, she still had some evil intentions, so naturally she wouldn't say it out loud, but just nodded in a muffled voice.
There were more immortals coming and going, and the news naturally leaked out little by little.
The question that these immortals are most concerned about is what is eating people due to the changes in the Seven Villages! They are all here to slay demons. Regarding this, both Shopkeeper Chen and the refugees from various places are extremely grateful and respectful to the immortals.
As long as the immortals kill the monsters and beasts that cause trouble in their hometown, they can go back and continue to live their own lives.
Most of the immortals revolve around questions such as "What does the monster look like?", "How tall and big is it?", "How can it hurt people?", "How many are there?".
Chunyu also truthfully fed back to the immortals the news he had heard from villagers from all walks of life these days.
Most of the immortals shook their heads when they heard this.
They are all untrue and exaggerated rumors, and they are not reliable.
This can't be blamed on Chunyu, everything Chunyu said is true. But his source of information has changed hands countless times, and the truth has long been distorted.
Xiangmaozi is the only one who has seen the monster with her own eyes, but she doesn't like to rush for words. Secondly, she doesn't know that Chunyu's news is all false rumors, and she thinks that others are more knowledgeable than she is. He was able to fly and breathe fire, so he didn't go up to tell his story.
Xiangmaozi hasn't heard from the people of Yexi Village these days, so she still misses this. I listen to it every day, just hoping that an immortal will tell me about the things in Yexi Village.
But Yexi Village is probably too small. Immortals come and go, asking for news or passing by to rest, but no one has mentioned Yexi Village.
On this day, another immortal with an immortal spirit walked into Sixian Tower, and Chun Yu hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically.
The white-robed immortal was relatively cold and threw a small piece of silver to Chun Yu, asking him to focus on which villages had ferocious beasts and what these murderers looked like.
Nine out of ten immortals who have come to inquire these days are asking about this matter. Chunyu had already spoken smoothly, and she said it again with great joy.
If this were placed in a teahouse or restaurant, it would probably be regarded as a stand-up comedy and would be applauded twice!
But after hearing this, the immortal chief did not show a satisfied smile, but frowned. He tapped the table with his slender white fingers, "There are seven villages north of Huangshi Town. Why did you only talk about five? What's the situation with monsters in the remaining two villages?"
Xiangmaozi pricked up his ears when the immortal asked about this, while Chunyu was a little embarrassed. He bowed and explained, "Immortal, you don't know something. These news are passed down by refugees from all over the world. Because I am the waiter of Sixian Tower, I naturally get the news more comprehensively and quickly. It can be said that it is Strangely, after so many days, no one has come to the two northernmost villages near Qishan, Yexi Village and Xiguo Village. Therefore, I don't know what is going on in those two villages, and I don't dare to say anything. "
After listening to Chunyu's explanation, the immortal was not angry. He said softly, "Huh", and still tapped his fingers, as if he was thinking about something.
Next, the immortal asked another unrelated question, "Many cultivators must have asked you general questions these days. Have they said they want to go to these two villages?"
Chun Yu said with a smile, "How can this little person know? However, except for you, no one else has asked about the situation in these two villages. I guess no one will go."
Hearing what Chunyu said, the immortal just nodded.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound at the door, and a Taoist-robed immortal was seen jumping down from a white deer with long horns, and yelling loudly, "Oh, this place is so fucking biased!!!" Bah, bah, bah, what a broken road, it makes Daoye's mouth full of sand."
Chunyu and the white-robed immortal bowed and hurried to greet him.
Unexpectedly, the Taoist Immortal saw the white-robed Immortal sitting in the middle of the hall at a glance, and his eyes lit up. Almost loudly, "Fellow Taoist Hua Jun! I didn't expect to meet you here, what a coincidence!"
The white-robed immortal also stood up with a smile and returned the salute, "It's Taoist Beigui, what a coincidence!"
Chunyu was very discerning. Seeing that these two people knew each other, he quickly led Taoist Beigui and the white-robed Immortal Huajun to sit at the same table.
Taoist Beigui has a very bold and bold personality. When he meets his old friend in a foreign land, he can't stop talking, "Fortunately, I met my fellow Taoist here. Oh, Yinzhou is too big. I came all the way from Kunwu Mountain, and it was almost day and night. After flying for seven days and seven nights, we finally caught up with this great excitement!"
Immortal Hua Jun has a reserved personality. When he heard him complain like this, he just nodded with a smile and said, "Brother Yongxu, you have worked hard on this journey."
"No, this journey has made me thirsty." Taoist priest Bei Gui shouted, "But I have something good here, a third-grade Yunwei Qingye. I am a brother who is not talented. I got three taels a few days ago. Today. Just in time to share it with Brother Wuxian! Xiaoer, have a pot of the best mountain spring water!" The last words were said to Chunyu.
Chunyu agreed repeatedly.
However, Immortal Hua Jun stopped Chunyu and said, "I used the mountain spring water here to ruin the third-grade Yunwei Qingye. I have the Guiyi water from the Golden Light Zhan Party here. Why not use it to make tea, so that I can't live up to it." The clouds are slightly green with leaves."
Shopkeeper Chen, Chun Yu and others were dumbfounded and stood around blankly.
Taoist Bei Gui burst out laughing, "I didn't expect you to have such a good thing, take it out, take it out!"
Two immortals, you provide tea and I provide water. Each took out the white jade teapot they used to make tea, opened their hands slightly, and a small flame solidified in the air, boiling the water in just a moment. As the boiling water was poured into the tea cup, an extremely peaceful and gentle sound spread throughout the teahouse.
The shopkeepers, Chunyu and Lemongrass, couldn't help but sniff their noses and smelled it gently. It was really fragrant. It was not a strong aroma, but a very peaceful smell. After sniffing it gently, they felt Feeling a little drunk.
The two immortal elders raised their teacups to each other, bowed to each other, and drank the whole drink in one gulp.
After drinking two more rounds of tea, the immortal began to chat.
Taoist Bei Gui started the topic first, "Brother Wuxian, you are here this time also for the recruitment order of the Nine Immortal Sects, right?"
Immortal Hua Jun nodded slightly, "As a brother, I have no talent. Although I have studied hard for many years, I have recently fallen into a bottleneck and been trapped for a hundred years. I don't know, I have to give this opportunity a try."
Taoist priest Bei Gui slapped his thigh, "Who says otherwise! We casual cultivators can't match the power of the sect. Their family background is too strong, especially the inner sect disciples. There will be almost no bottlenecks, and there will be no obstacles to breakthroughs all the way up. Unlike us, if we encounter a bottleneck, we will be trapped for a hundred years. If there are no additional opportunities, we may die."
The expressions of the two immortals were a little sad.
But only for a moment, Taoist Master Bei Gui's pride arose again, "It's rare that this time all the nine immortal sects have issued a recruitment order, in exchange for ferocious beasts. This is an opportunity that fell from the sky, and I must take advantage of it. I don't want to win now." I'm worried that there are too few ferocious beasts, but I'm worried that there aren't enough ferocious beasts and people will overtake them!"
Immortal Hua Jun's expression moved slightly, "Brother Yongxu, do you have any ideas?"
Taoist priest Bei Gui's expression suddenly became solemn, "Brother Wu Xian was dissatisfied and said that my immortal energy is less than a hundred years old. This may be my last chance. I am bound to win the beast this time. Nine It's rare for the Great Immortal Sect to open a recruitment order. When the time comes, you can get the opportunity to become an inner disciple by relying on the recruitment order, so you have to fight for it!"
Immortal Hua Jun's expression remained indifferent, "I'm afraid there are quite a few fellow Taoists who have Brother Yongxu's thoughts."
Taoist priest Beigui also thought of this, "I don't know what Brother Wuxian has in mind. If you can help me, I will repay you with a spring of water."
"I happen to have some experience here." Immortal Hua Jun did not hesitate and told Taoist Bei Gui the question he just asked Chun Yu, "Brother Yongxu, do you think there is any problem here?"
Taoist Bei Gui looked rough and bold, but in fact he was extremely thoughtful. After hearing what Immortal Hua Jun said, he immediately realized, "No one has come from those two villages. This means that the ferocious beasts in those two villages are either They are extremely powerful, or there are many of them. It is estimated that it will have to reach the level of massacre of a village, so that no one can escape!"
Then his eyes lit up, "And because there is not much information, other fellow Taoists don't seem to be rushing in that direction. If we rush there now, we might have a great opportunity!"
Immortal Hua Jun nodded slightly, "But I'm afraid there are both opportunities and dangers there."
Taoist priest Bei Gui shook his head, "Brother Wuxian is too cautious. It's just a ferocious beast. Can't we, seventh-level spiritual cultivators, do anything about it?"
However, Immortal Hua Jun shook his head, "Brother Yongxu, do you think the crisis this time is only with the ferocious beasts?! I'm afraid the crisis coming from the spiritual cultivators will have to defeat the ferocious beasts!"
When Taoist Master Bei Gui heard what Immortal Hua Jun said, he instantly understood what Immortal Hua Jun meant. This recruitment order issued by the Nine Immortal Sects is a rare opportunity. It is estimated that as long as there are conditions, all the casual cultivators will spare no effort to fight for it.
However, there are many casual cultivators and few ferocious beasts. I am afraid that there will inevitably be disputes. Killing people and seizing treasures is never an uncommon news in the world of cultivation.
I am afraid that in the end, more cultivators will die from injuries to each other than from the hands of ferocious beasts.
Thinking of this, Taoist Bei Gui couldn't help but said seriously to Immortal Hua Jun, "How about we two make an oath of inner demons and form an alliance to go together?"
Immortal Hua Jun smiled slightly, "That's exactly what I meant!"
The two people immediately swore an oath of inner demons in the lobby and formed an alliance.
The oaths between immortals are much heavier than those between mortals. Every time they make progress, they must overcome a tribulation, and the inner demons are a part of the heart-training process that must be repeatedly tortured during the tribulation. Therefore, few immortals would violate their inner demon vows, which would be tantamount to severing their own spiritual journey.
After swearing the inner demon oath, the two of them laughed in unison, their expressions even more frank.
"In this case, time waits for no one. Why don't we set off now!" Immortal Hua Jun said.
With just a wave of Taoist Beigui's hand, the tea set and remaining leaves on the table disappeared. And they swayed slightly, drifting away in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared.
Xiangmaozi stared blankly into the distance, feeling a huge shock to his soul.
It turns out that this is the world of immortals.
This is the cultivator!
