Food Fairy Lord

Chapter 157
"How to exchange?"

"You ask me one thing, and then I ask you one--didn't you play 'Guess the Tiger' when you were a child?"

".We call it 'Gui Lao Lang'."

Pei Ye smiled and nodded: "That's it."

".No need to exchange." Qing Yi raised his eyes, this time his eyes were firm, "Before time runs out, I will answer your question, and then you decide whether we are friends or foes."

"That's fine." Pei Ye said, "I guess you have no interest in me now - who are you?"

"Yang Yan."

"."

"Desperate man." Qing Yi added, then frowned and urged, "Continue."

Pei Ye nodded: "You are very sincere. The next question is, where are you from?"

"To the west, under the Tianshan Mountains."

"It's so far away. I've never been to a place that far away." Pei Ye said, "What are you doing here?"

"Escape for your life, clear your grievances, and take revenge."

Pei Ye nodded and chuckled: "An elder told me before that if you walk around the world and figure out these three questions, you can initially nail a person's image."

"Quickly ask."

"Why are you killing people?"

"Because they're going to kill me."

"Why did they kill you?"

".This question is too long."

"Okay, let's talk now - who is your target tonight?"

".I don't know, he's not here yet."

"Guests at Ding Si's table?"

"Correct."

"You have a cultivation level of five lifetimes. Why were you chased by the leader of the Huxin Clan of four lifetimes that day?"

"There are stronger enemies behind him."

"What's the relationship with the one you're going to deal with now?"

"it's him."

"How did you lock him?"

"Investigating, I know he's going to be here tonight, but I don't know his identity."

Pei Ye nodded and said no more.

"Finished?"

"Yes, but I need to see who you are going to deal with before I can determine whether we are friends or foes." Pei Ye said, "Where is Ding Si's table? Can you point it out to me?"

Yang Yan was silent for a moment, then raised her hand and pointed to a table in the distance.

"I have to put the wine away first. I can't see him face to face." Yang Yan said.

"So you just put it on the stage to let others know." Pei Ye nodded suddenly and said, "You go over, aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

"...Afraid, but I have always been scared." Yang Yan glanced at Pei Ye silently. He actually looked younger than Pei Ye. "You can do whatever you want, and I will accept everything." Consequences and then keep doing what I'm going to do. Until I die."

The string in his heart seemed to be stronger again.

At this time, Pei Ye looked at the young man's somewhat tougher features and suddenly thought that this was the first person he had met who was younger than him, but had gone further than him on the path of spiritual practice.

Li Mingqing is only the same age.

Yang Yan picked up the wine and walked to the table. Pei Ye stood there, waiting for him quietly.

He watched Yang Yan put the wine on the table, clean the cups and place them like a real attendant, and finally did not forget to insert a flower into the porcelain vase, and then walked back at a steady pace.

Yang Yan put the plate and the remaining wine back on the table, looked outside the railing, focused on the entrance of the guests with his peripheral vision, and said, "Coming soon."

Pei Ye followed his gaze and then turned back: "What will happen to you if I don't plan to cooperate in the end?"

In fact, he didn't have any enemies. He probably didn't know the person Yang Yan was going to deal with, and there was a slight chance that he was an acquaintance.

In fact, it is difficult for two people to have a common goal.

Yang Yan glanced at him: "Run."

"Won't you kill me first?" Pei Ye smiled. "No need."

Pei Ye nodded: "Thank you, but I won't let you go."

Yang Yan looked at him coldly.

"No matter what grievances you have, the state government is three miles away." Pei Ye said seriously, "Killing someone in self-defense is not a crime. If you have any grievances, you can present them to the court."

"." Yang Yan looked at him and suddenly smiled, "There is someone more naive than me."

"How can you be naive? This is where the state government does this. You kill people according to your own ideas. At least I am very worried when I look at it."

"What are you afraid of?"

"I'm worried that you might hurt my friend - that day at the casino, the water tank you broke almost hurt a woman."

"I can't care so much, and I won't go to court." Yang Yan pursed her lips and said, "If you insist on seeking death, I will draw the knife."

"It's just a hypothesis." Pei Ye smiled, "Maybe I'm willing to cooperate with you."

Having said that, both of them felt the tense atmosphere again.

At this moment, the sound of someone going up the stairs came from the end of the corridor.

The two of them turned their heads at the same time, but it was not the guest they were waiting for. Instead, a man in green clothes came up, accompanied by two guards in black clothes.

It turned out that the Qingyi leader who Pei Ye had just sent away was back.

"Guest!" Qing Yi was still a little flustered and confused, waving his hand, "I brought someone here, what's going on?"

The atmosphere between Pei Ye and Yang Yan was as tense as a string.

Pei Ye's sword was never returned to its sheath. He tightened his grip again, stared sideways at the young man beside him, and said, "Come and help me——"

Yang Yan looked back at him and retreated silently.

at this time.

On the other side, a figure walked up from the stairs leading to the guests.

The second half of Pei Ye's words seemed to be cut off.

This figure was wearing a light-colored cloak, with the hood buckled on his head, and a few white hairs floating out.He is neither tall nor short, but rather thin and slightly stooped. He has the figure of an old man.

He held a staff in his hand—not a short staff to lean on, but long enough to lean on.

He went straight to Dingsi's table, lifted his cloak, and sat down cross-legged.

Qingyi and Huyuan came over and asked again: "Guest? What did you say?"

As he spoke, he already looked at Yang Yan behind Pei Ye.

"——Come and do me a favor." Pei Ye picked up a glass of wine, drank it and turned around with a smile. Two red clouds appeared on his cheeks. "Is someone here? Do these two eldest brothers have any cultivation?" body?"

Qing Yi cupped his hands and said: "We are all second students, guests."

Pei Ye nodded, raised his sword and stepped to the railing: "I am also a second student. I was drinking and dancing here just now, and I was thinking about how fluttering it would be to jump off the fifth floor after drinking this bottle of wine. The feeling of ecstasy.”

"."

"But I'm worried that if I jump from the fifth floor with my level of cultivation, will I get injured?"

"In the realm of the second life, as long as the bones are not too weak, there should be no serious problems." A nursing home said with a fist, "The guest looks strong and strong, so there should be no problem - but it is best not to Let’s dance, after drinking, it’s inevitable that you won’t be able to mobilize your true energy when you’re in a daze.”

Pei Ye nodded and pointed: "That makes sense! So let me ask you two to try jumping first and let me see."

"."

"."

This life is not dangerous, but it is not very good-looking either. The two nurses may have seen too many strange guests. At this time, they only looked at each other helplessly, then they stepped over, jumped, and fell straight down from the fifth floor.

Pei Ye leaned over the railing and clapped as he watched the two people tumbling to the ground, then turned to look at Qing Yi beside him.

Qing Yi's face suddenly turned pale and he took two steps back: "I have no cultivation, guest."

"Really not at all?"

"Not at all! Guest!"

Pei Ye was disappointed: "Oh, then you can go."

Qing Yi immediately turned around and left quickly.

Pei Ye watched him disappear and turned around, his face red and expressionless.

In the dark corridor, he stood side by side with Yang Yan, looking silently at the old man drinking under the light of the jade lamp.
