defend the truth

"My lord, did you come in a carriage?"

The bartender saw that Li Wei really didn't want to leave his address, and then saw that it was true.Based on the experienced vision of "respect Luo Yi first, then respect people" he has cultivated in these years of working in Qinghe Restaurant.

He already guessed in his heart that Li Weizhen should be from a wealthy family from a neighboring village, and maybe he came to the town to do business during the few days when the New Year was approaching, and bought new year's goods by the way.

Li Weizhen replied with a noncommittal smile: "I came from a relatively far away place. Anyway, the store only needs to prepare the food and drinks, and don't worry about the rest!"

Since it was the customer's wish, the bartender didn't say much anymore, and quickly made a gesture of respect and said: "Guest officers, please move upstairs to the private room first. The cooking of the first-class dishes is more complicated, please wait patiently. Forgive me!"

Revisiting the old place, Li Weizhen naturally sat back at the table back then, in the same position, watching the familiar scenery.In an instant, it seemed that everything had returned to the original point. Three years had been nothing but a dream.

Compared with the mud-legged boy back then, Li Weizhen today is naturally qualified to sit in this first-class position.Even the bartender had to enthusiastically serve all kinds of exquisite pastries and fragrant tea.

And these meticulous services did not require Li Weizhen to speak at all, the bartender knew how to behave himself.

It is not in vain that Li Weizhen specially wore a piece of beautiful jade on his waist before entering the restaurant.

Since it is in the secular world, it is natural to deal with lay people. Li Weizhen doesn't mind falling into the cliché and selling out his sophistication.What's more, as far as the matter is concerned, he is indeed very rich now.He's not in the mood, and he doesn't bother to do the boring thing of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and then slapping his face with money.

Not far away from the window is the natural canal that divides Long'an Town into two.And on this economic lifeline, cargo ships and painted boats pass slowly from time to time.

At this moment, several cargo ships under the Nie family flag appeared in Li Weizhen's sight.

The young man holding the tea suddenly pursed his lips into a smile, and the smile continued to stretch, and finally evolved into a loud laugh.Just like the spring breeze suddenly, the willows are green and the flowers are red!

An Lan couldn't help asking curiously, "Did you think of something fun, sir?"

Li Weizhen nodded and said: "Thinking of a friend, do you still remember Brother Nie from Yaolu? His home is in this town, quite grand!"

Unexpectedly, An Lan curled her lips and muttered in a low voice: "He? Who doesn't remember his stinky face?"

Li Weizhen said softly: "You are not allowed to speak like this, you understand?"

An Lan put her hands on the table, cupped her face, pouted and said, "I know! Children don't understand adults' affairs! You always say that..."

Ye Tong could see some clues, and asked tentatively: "Sir, later, but do you want to go to that brother Nie's house and pay a visit?"

Li Weizhen took a sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "Let's take a walk! I don't know if he is at home."

Perhaps, it was really dark under the lights, and Li Weizhen never thought about it.Nie Geng left Yuelun Mountain, where else could he go?

And Li Wei really wanted to see Nie Geng, not only because of their relationship.More importantly, it is because of the freckled boy who is still bedridden.

Nie Geng, after all, is a serious disciple of Yaolu, a Taoist doctor who was brought out by Wen Renyu.

Perhaps, through Nie Geng's experience, Nie Geng can find a solution to some things that Xia Chan can't see.

The most reliable Wen Renyu, now he doesn't know where he is?And there is such a Town God's Temple right now, Li Wei really can't think of a reason not to ask for a lottery.

After waiting for about half an hour, the twelve exquisite delicacies on a table were all ready.Divide them into two loads of long food boxes. If you hire porters, you have to find two people.

The style of the food box is also beautiful. It is lacquerware made of rosewood and painted with gold powder. It is a festive pattern of flowers blooming and wealth.The food box alone is worth several taels of silver.

"My lord, this is a heavy item. Let the boy take it to the post house for you?" The bartender saw that there was no carriage parked near the store door, so he said so.

"It's fine."

Li Weizhen raised his sleeve and grabbed it from the air.The bartender felt an inexplicable breeze blowing across his cheeks, and in the blink of an eye, all the food boxes on the table were gone.

"Sword Immortal?" The bartender subconsciously exclaimed.

In Long'an Town, disciples of Xuangui Sect are always active.Therefore, for them, cultivators don't just live in legends.

But after all, it is the gods who came from the mountain, and the kind of awe that is firmly rooted in the heart will still cause these ordinary people down the mountain to have many strong emotions.

The wealthy shopkeeper ran out of the counter in a hurry, nodded and bowed to Li Weizhen who was about to pay, and waved his hands desperately: "No way, no way! It's rare for an immortal to come to this small shop, that's already our shop Flourishing and shining golden light! This is the great blessing we waited for, and this money is absolutely unacceptable to villains!"

Seeing that these people were about to bow down on the spot, Li Weizhen hurriedly waved his hands to stop him. He said angrily, "I am not one of those golden statues, and I didn't bless you. Why can't I receive this money? You are in business, and you have to eat Bar?"

The shopkeeper said flatteringly: "Shangxian is a living god, and more worthy of filial piety. These wines and dishes are what the villain really wants to respect you!"

Li Weizhen was a little speechless for a moment.Fortunately, Ye Tong was smart enough, imitating the tone of adults: "Take it if you tell me, my husband is a swordsman, he is short of your money, is he greedy for your food? Take people's hands short, eat people His mouth is soft, even the gods are no exception, what is the intention of you waiting?"

Let's not talk about whether Ye Tong's words are appropriate, but they definitely work.With a hat buckled, how dare the shopkeeper take the money without trembling, expressing endless gratitude.

This made Li Weizhen really dumbfounded, so he had to leave as soon as possible to avoid continuing to attract attention.

After watching Li Weizhen disappear from sight, the bartender said with a little bit of concern: "This Master Sword Immortal, shouldn't he come down from Guiling Mountain?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "It doesn't look like it. It's probably an immortal from outside. I hope it doesn't come from Moon Moon Mountain. It's a pity!"

After the shopkeeper left a thought-provoking sigh, he shook his head and returned to the counter.

After passing through an alley, Li Weizhen and his party came to another street, and were about to ask passers-by about the way to the Nie's compound.After all, back then, I followed the crowd and hurried past without paying much attention.

Suddenly, an eight or nine-year-old boy ran up to Li Weizhen, handed out a piece of plain paper that had been folded in two, and gasped, "My lord, let me give this to you!"

After finishing speaking, before Li Weizhen could ask a question, he turned around and ran into the traffic, and disappeared without a trace.

Li Weizhen had to check the content on the plain note first, there were only five short words on it, but it shocked him: "Nie's mansion, I can't go there!"

In an exquisite and gorgeous painting boat, a young man with the appearance of a rich man got himself drunk.He sat down on the ground dejectedly, and said dejectedly: "Since you are still alive, why don't you go further away? Why don't you just live like me? If we can never see each other, then we will always be friends .”

"At least in your heart, I will still be your friend!"

"But how can a person like me deserve to be your friend?"
