From the standstill of time, across the heavens

Chapter 1438 Hao Shuai: I finally understand why the inn’s business is so bad!!

"Here it comes~ Here it comes~ Why are you yelling so late at night?" Li Xiaoyao's wolf howl attracted a rebuke, and then a middle-aged woman who was obviously just waking up walked down from the second floor of the inn.

This middle-aged woman still looks charming and her facial features are still delicate, but her whole face is full of vicissitudes.

Hao Shuai knew that she should be Li Xiaoyao's aunt, Aunt Li.

Although Aunt Li looked like a vicious woman in her forties or fifties, Hao Shuai knew that she was only in her thirties, which was the most mature period for a woman. However, she was now aged prematurely due to the torture of life.

Alas~~Thinking about it, Aunt Li is also a pitiful person.

Hao Shuai planned to be a good person and save her from suffering from poisoning.

After Aunt Li came down, she snatched the silver from Li Xiaoyao's hand, then looked at Hao Shuai with a smile on her face and said, "Sir, wait a moment. I will prepare wine and food for you."

After saying that, he turned and went to the kitchen. Before leaving, he did not forget to instruct Li Xiaoyao to treat Hao Shuai, the God of Wealth, well.

Li Xiaoyao naturally did not dare to disobey, and diligently picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Hao Shuai.

Hao Shuai looked at the dark yellow tea stains at the bottom of the teacup and immediately lost the desire to drink tea. He immediately chatted with Li Xiaoyao, "Little brother, I don't know how to call you yet?"

"My name is Li Xiaoyao, the one just now is my aunt, and this inn is run by our family." Li Xiaoyao is obviously a talkative person, or a bit outgoing.

"Where are you from, sir?"

"I came from a city far away."

"Sir, you are traveling so late at night, aren't you afraid of encountering monsters?"

Li Xiaoyao's words made Hao Shuai realize that the mortals in the Fairy Sword world also knew about the existence of goblins and ghosts. No wonder there was no one on the streets at night.

"I'm not afraid. Ordinary ghosts can't get close to me."

"Sir, do you know martial arts?"

"You know a little bit."

"Sir, are you an expert? Can you teach me?"

“Well~ Not really a master, probably only as good as three or four floors at most!” Hao Shuai felt that Li Xiaoyao was too familiar with others, how could he let people teach him martial arts as soon as he came down.

Just when Hao Shuai didn't know how to answer, Aunt Li came over with dishes. When she saw Li Xiaoyao, she immediately scolded him, "You little bastard, why are you standing there? Go in and serve the dishes!"

When Li Xiaoyao saw Aunt Li, he was no different from a mouse seeing a cat. He immediately forgot about learning martial arts and went to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

"I'm sorry, sir. I'm just a country boy with no knowledge. I'm sorry for being so rude." Aunt Li put the dishes on the table and said apologetically.

Hao Shuai knew that Aunt Li must have heard what Li Xiaoyao said, which was why she apologized to him.

After all, she was once a martial artist, so she naturally knew that martial arts were the secrets of each school and were not something a stranger could inquire about.

Now Li Xiaoyao not only wants to inquire, but also wants someone to teach him.

If this kind of thing happened in the underworld, it would have been dealt with long ago.

Fortunately, with Hao Shuai's current status and position, he naturally wouldn't bother with Li Xiaoyao, and said casually: "It's okay, brother Xiaoyao is just a quick-tempered person."

After a while, Li Xiaoyao brought all the dishes and a pot of wine.

Hao Shuai looked at the dishes on the table, smelled them, and immediately lost most of his appetite.

The dishes cooked by Aunt Li were suddenly different in color, aroma and taste.

Not giving up, I picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the food to taste it.

Got~~
Now the color, aroma and taste are all gone!
Hao Shuai finally understood why Li Xiaoyao and Aunt Li had such a hard time running such a large inn and even monopolizing it! !

At first he thought it was because of the bad environment and the fact that there was no business.

It turns out that it’s because the food is so bad!!
With Auntie Li's cooking skills, if there are repeat customers, Hao Shuai will stand on his head and eat shit. Now think about it, the three Moon Worshipers who stayed at the hotel in the original plot were also ruthless people!
In order to trick Li Xiaoyao into helping them break the formation, they actually stayed here for several days and ate the food cooked by Aunt Li every day.

It turns out that people who engage in zongjiao worship cannot be judged by common sense.

But the more amazing one should be Li Xiaoyao, who has been eating such food for more than ten years. It's really pitiful!

Thinking of this, Hao Shuai looked at Li Xiaoyao behind the counter with sympathy.

When Li Xiaoyao saw Hao Shuai looking at him, he immediately revealed a flattering smile. It seemed that he had not yet given up the idea of ​​learning martial arts from Hao Shuai.

"Eh~ That's not right!" Hao Shuai suddenly thought, "Could it be that Li Xiaoyao doesn't know that the food is bad? After all, he has been eating this since he was a child, so he is used to it?!"

Knowing that his sympathy was blind, Hao Shuai withdrew his gaze, but he had lost his appetite. He stood up and said, "Little brother, take me back to the room!"

"Ah~ Sir, you don't want to eat now?" Li Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment. He clearly saw Hao Shuai and only moved his chopsticks.

"I don't want to eat anymore. I'm tired and want to rest." Hao Shuai couldn't just say that the food was hard to eat, so he could only make up an excuse.

When Li Xiaoyao heard this, he was delighted. Now he had a midnight snack, but he did not show it. Instead, he led the way and said attentively, "Sir, please come this way. The room is here."

Soon, Hao Shuai came to a guest room under the guidance of Li Xiaoyao.

"Sir, have a good rest. Call me if you need anything."

"Ah."

After Li Xiaoyao left, Hao Shuai closed the door and looked around the so-called No. 1 room.

The air was filled with a strong smell of mold and dampness, dust was visible to the naked eye, and spider webs could be seen in the corners of the walls.

There was a half-worn mattress on the bed.

Got~~
Hao Shuai knew that he would not be able to sleep that night.

So he sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to pass the time by practicing.

He sat there for several hours, and around midnight, Hao Shuai suddenly opened his eyes.

“Everyone should be asleep at this time!” Hao Shuai whispered, then his spiritual sense enveloped the entire inn and began to search.

He is looking for the Water Spirit Pearl.

Ten years ago, Li Xiaoyao's parents, Nan Daoxia, risked their lives to sneak into Nanzhao to look for poisonous dragon gall in order to save the great detective Huangfu Ying.

However, they were discovered by the powerful Baiyue, who promised to give them the poisonous dragon gall as long as they stole the Water Spirit Pearl.

Li Sansi and his wife were eager to save people, so they agreed to Baiyue's request, and finally succeeded in stealing the Water Spirit Pearl, and brought the poisonous dragon gall back to save Huangfu Ying.

Li Sansi gave the stolen Water Spirit Pearl to the young Li Xiaoyao as a marble.

The water spirit bead was the one that accompanied Li Xiaoyao as he grew up.

However, as he grew older, Li Xiaoyao no longer knew where the bead had gone.

If the original plot was followed, the Water Spirit Pearl would be exchanged for a wooden sword from Xiao Xiaoyao when Li Xiaoyao returned to ten years ago.

But now that Hao Shuai has appeared, maybe things will change!

If you try it, you'll have to eat a piece of meat. It'll just be a waste of time.

A moment later, Hao Shuai found a water blue bead about the size of a goose egg in a small box in the cabinet.

Then he swiped his finger, and a small portal appeared out of thin air.

The next second, the aqua blue bead disappeared from the box...
