"You two, it's not that I regret it, but that I didn't write this note at all. I never knew there was such a prize in it." The shopkeeper explained in a panic.

"What is he talking about?"

"How can you say that? Isn't this just a repudiation!"

"It's too much. If you win the grand prize, you don't want to give it to me. How can you do that?"

"Didn't I hear that this shopkeeper is pretty good before? Why did he do this now?"

"There is no treachery or businessmanship. Although I have drawn many prizes in the past, they were all small prizes! There were only one or two grand prizes of over a thousand. Who knows if they were the ones he found?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper quickly explained, "It's not that I'm a renegade. Everyone has heard that I am not that kind of person, but you see, these are indeed not my words...and if you really want to say it, what you did just now is not appropriate." Isn’t that the rule? Our challenge is for one person to do it, but there are two of you.”

He randomly pulled out a few slips of paper from the box and showed Ning Zhishui and Ling Luo that the handwriting was indeed different.

The other handwriting in the box is relatively mature and thick, but the one written by Ning Zhishui looks childish.

After pointing out the differences in the notes, he pointed out that the two were not in compliance with the rules.

The meaning is very obvious. Regardless of whether it is considered a repudiation or not, shopkeeper Hu has no intention of giving the prize to them.

Ling Luo was stunned at first, and then became angry, "Why are you still keeping your word? Now that we two are out of compliance, why didn't you say anything when you asked us to draw the lottery just now? It seems that you just want to refuse the bill temporarily!"

Ning Zhishui also said: "Let's talk about the note first. You said you didn't write the note, but the origin of the note has nothing to do with us. You brought the box to us, and you keep it normally. If there is any problem in it, It's caused by your own lax supervision and you can't leave the responsibility to the customers."

Shopkeeper Hu pursed his lips.

"Let's talk about whether it's in compliance with the rules or not. Everyone can see clearly that Ling Luo was able to refine it successfully, but something happened because someone made trouble. The alchemy site was decided by you, the shopkeeper, but you didn't manage it well. Crowd order, that's why this accident happened, and you have to take responsibility for this."

"Besides, Ling Luo is right. If you were dissatisfied with my intervention, you should have raised objections at the time, but you didn't. The fact that you showed up holding the box and watching me draw the lottery shows that you have approved the result. So is it a bit too much to say now that we are against the rules? Can I understand that you think the value of the prize I drew is too high, so you want to break the contract and not honor it? "

Ning Zhishui rebutted point by point, with good reason and evidence, and immediately left the shopkeeper speechless, with his face turning red and white.

Ling Luo nodded repeatedly, "Yes, that's the truth! Shopkeeper Hu, your store has been open for so long, do you want to lose your integrity now and become a talking point for our sect disciples?"

"Ah, look who's coming!"

"Who...ah, isn't this the most beautiful woman?"

"Is she Ren Fei?"

"Is that Lu Rushan next to you?"

"It's really... a perfect match."

Ning Zhishui's ears twitched and she suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the door.

The shop, which was originally packed to the rafters, was forced to open a passage, and a man and a woman walked over under the gaze of everyone.

The two of them were dressed in white, green gauze and red ribbons, and their outfits were fresh and beautiful. As they arrived, a pleasant and refreshing fragrance drifted into the shop, like the fragrance of flowers after the rain.

The woman has snow-skinned skin and beautiful face like a flower. The man has an evil look on his face and a charming eye.

The two of them standing together were so beautiful that many people were stunned.

"I was wondering who was denying the credit, and it turned out to be shopkeeper Hu." The female cultivator came over, her eyes rested on Ning Zhishui for a moment, and then she looked at the shopkeeper.

She was smiling, and she didn't show any anger when she spoke, but the shopkeeper suddenly started sweating when he heard this.

"Baby Zhishui, come and stand next to my aunt." The female cultivator waved to Ning Zhishui without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak, with a smile in her eyes.

Everyone was stunned, even Ling Luo looked at Ning Zhishui in shock.

what is that?

Auntie?

"Auntie." Ning Zhishui faced these eyes and stood next to Ren Fei.

Not to mention others, even Ning Zhishui was shocked after seeing her aunt's current appearance.

He is still the same person, but his temperament has changed drastically, and it seems that he has become more delicate and beautiful after being baptized by the exercises.

Maybe it's not just the skills, but according to the Hexian Sect's style of doing things, there are countless treasures that can improve your beauty.

And since my aunt is now the master's disciple, she must have used everything that should be used.

"Fairy Ren, you are..." The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.

He had already panicked when he saw Ren Fei appearing with a questioning attitude, and now that he learned about her relationship with Ning Zhishui, the shopkeeper felt even worse!

"Yes, our relationship is as you can see." Ren Fei raised her eyebrows and smiled, "But it's not important. It's not about the person, but the matter. Shopkeeper Hu, you can handle this matter how you want to handle it. You don't have to consider me."

"Ren, Fellow Daoist Ren, I'm not...I didn't default on the debt, how dare I, haha, I definitely recognize this prize."

Shopkeeper Hu almost gritted his teeth, but after seeing today's scene, he knew that it was impossible to deny the matter.

Why don't you think about her... Even if Ren Fei really doesn't care, does Hexian Sect not care either?

Who doesn't know how much the leader likes her as a disciple? If he bullies others to the point of bullying her, then he will still have his own, okay?

So with blood dripping from his heart, the shopkeeper still took out the elixir.

but……

"There is something wrong with the quality of this elixir." Ning Zhishui just glanced at it and pushed it back, "Why don't the shopkeeper replace it with crystal stones?"

This person is really evil, and he is still playing tricks at this time.

He was afraid that he felt that the Golden Jade Pill was an unpopular pill, and not many people knew it, and not many people could tell the difference between good and bad, so he deliberately passed it off as a good one.

Ren Fei's face darkened when she heard this, she looked at Shopkeeper Hu and snorted softly, "Shopkeeper Hu, are you deceiving my niece when she is young and ignorant? How about this, let's go to the Xianlai Sect with the elixir and ask. What did they say?"

"Xianlai Sect?" Shopkeeper Hu was confused.

Ning Zhishui explained in due course, "Oh, I am a disciple of the Xianlai Sect... personally taught."

Shopkeeper Hu:...

Shopkeeper Hu cursed in his heart and secretly sighed that he didn't read the almanac today.

He wiped his sweat and said, "Haha, I didn't even notice. Maybe it took too long to refine, so the quality of the elixir is a little different... Then I'll replace it with crystal stones for you."

He would rather not change, but why not change his career?

Not to mention Ren Fei, Lu Rushan, who was standing next to her, looked at her with cold eyes as if he wanted to kill someone.
