The days when I opened a tavern in Zongwu

Chapter 91 You have so many tricks up your sleeve

The coughing sound was very urgent, like the feeling of being choked when drinking water, and the sound also had a somewhat hollow sound.

When he heard the coughing sound, Li Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately noticed something strange in the coughing sound.

Then his eyes moved slightly to look at the person who made a coughing sound at the door.

This man was not too tall, but not short either. His clothes were very shabby, and he already had gray hair on his temples. He seemed to be just a very down-and-out middle-aged man.

His hair was disheveled and his clothes were disheveled. He clearly felt a bit downcast, but his eyes were as bright as the cold stars on an autumn night.

He also held a package in his right hand.

The package is not big. Judging from the shape, the things wrapped inside are boxy and should be in the shape of a box.

After entering the tavern, the man raised his head and glanced around the tavern.

When his eyes touched the outstanding-looking Li Changqing beside him, a flash of surprise flashed across the man's eyes like blue waves.

But the next second, the man's eyes returned to normal, he walked calmly for a few steps, and sat down at a table against the wall.

But after sitting down, the man couldn't stop coughing violently.

My face even turned a little red from coughing.

A new customer came to the store. Zhou Yong put down the wine glass in his hand and slowly walked towards the middle-aged man.

"There are two kinds of wine in the shop, which one does the guest want?"

The man looked along where Zhou Yong indicated, glanced at the wooden sign hanging on the wall, took out a tael of silver and put it on the table.

"Brother, please, bring me a pot to cook the knife."

Zhou Yong nodded: "Sir, please wait a moment."

Then, Zhou Yong turned around and walked to the counter, opened a drawer and put in the one tael of silver the man had just paid, and then took out another one tael of silver and put it inside.

But before Zhou Yong could enter the wine room, Huang Rong got up and entered the wine room first.

When Zhou Yong came over, Huang Rong turned around and said, "In the future, if there is a first-time guest, we will light a stove to warm the wine for free."

After hearing Huang Rong's words, Zhou Yong nodded slightly and said, "I understand."

After a while, looking at the two pots of wine on the table as well as the fire and copper plate used to warm the wine, the middle-aged man looked at Zhou Yong with slight confusion.

"Another bottle of wine, please."

After his eyes stayed on Zhou Yong's face for a moment, the middle-aged man asked, "Have you seen him before?"

Zhou Yong nodded, "I've seen it before."

As he finished speaking, Zhou Yong suddenly discovered that the skin on the middle-aged man's forehead had turned dark purple.

But after blinking for a moment and looking again, where is the deep purple that I just saw on the man's forehead?

"Illusion?"

After muttering in his heart, Zhou Yong said to the middle-aged man, "Please use your courtesy, guest officer." Then he turned back to the table at the door and sat down with his back to the middle-aged man.

After looking at Zhou Yong thoughtfully, a smile flashed in the middle-aged man's bright eyes.

After placing a pot of wine in a copper basin filled with water to warm, pick up another pot of wine and pour it into the wine glass.

As the drink entered his mouth, the middle-aged man coughed again.

But even though his body was shaking due to coughing, the man did not open his mouth, as if he was worried that he would cough up the drink he just drank.

After relaxing for a few breaths, the middle-aged man nodded, then looked up at Li Changqing who was standing aside.

"Good wine."

Hearing the middle-aged man's voice, Li Changqing chuckled and said, "Since the wine is good, the guests will drink a few more."

"must!"

After saying that, the middle-aged man drank all the wine in the glass.

Then he picked up the peanuts and ate them.

But the man didn't notice the whole process. At this time, the wood in the stove was burning in the fire, and suddenly there was a green light flashing.

After looking away from Zhou Yong and the middle-aged man, Huang Rong took a deep look at Li Changqing, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

Zhou Yong didn't know, but Huang Rong naturally knew.

As early as Li Changqing told Huang Rong the hidden poisons and poisoning methods, Huang Rong had already added materials to part of the wood and charcoal in the tavern.

As long as there are new guests, as those special wood and charcoal begin to burn, the medicinal effect of the medicine can also enter the human body as it burns.

Judging from the fleeting deep purple color on the man's forehead when the drug took effect just now, the man's cultivation has clearly reached the late stage of the Grand Master Realm.

With such a level of cultivation, he ran into this tavern, and his purpose made people suspicious.

Feeling Huang Rong's gaze, Li Changqing shook his head gently.

After hearing this and thinking for a while, Huang Rong gently slid her fingers on the table.

"But it seems that Zhou Yong knows that person. Do you want to ask?"

As a warrior improves his cultivation, his five senses will also improve accordingly.

Just like the master's five senses will be improved under the cultivation of true energy.

Just like Yao Yue, Huang Xuemei and Lian Xing, once they use their true energy, they can clearly hear the wind and grass in a hundred miles radius.

Therefore, after learning that the new guest who had just arrived had reached the late stage of the Grand Master Realm, Huang Rong did not speak directly as before, but communicated with Li Changqing in this way.

However, just when Huang Rong slid her fingers for a while and asked this question, Li Changqing's voice came lightly into Huang Rong's ears.

"Look first and then talk!"

The moment she heard the sound, Huang Rong suddenly turned her head to look at Li Changqing, her eyes filled with astonishment.

After blinking, Huang Rong pointed at Li Changqing's mouth.

The next second, Huang Rong clearly saw Li Changqing's mouth moving at first, obviously speaking, but no sound came out of his mouth.

On the contrary, it was after the lips closed that Li Changqing's voice reached Huang Rong's ears.

"Yeah! I use the voice transmission to enter the secret."

After confirming that Li Changqing was using voice transmission to enter the secret, Huang Rong's eyes widened.

His fingers moved quickly across the table.

"how did you do that?"

Li Changqing's slightly lazy voice slowly sounded.

"The cultivation method is quite special. When you are in the acquired state, your internal energy will have the effect of true energy."

Immediately afterwards, Huang Rong pointed to the location of Li Changqing's abdominal dantian.

Knowing the meaning of Huang Rong's inquiry, Li Changqing explained: "I just added a little medicine to the wine glass, which can isolate the fluctuations of internal energy in my body. Even if I use sound transmission to enter the secret, no one will notice it."

Huang Rong: "."

After understanding all this, Huang Rong's little face suddenly turned dark.

His fingers moved quickly across the table.

"You have so many tricks up your sleeve."

Although he is in the acquired realm, he can use sound transmission to become enchanted, and he can also use drugs to cover up his own internal energy fluctuations. With this method, it would be a pity not to be a spy.

Li Changqing said softly: "If not, why should I follow you and scribble on the table with my fingers? Anyone with a discerning eye will know what the two of us are doing at a glance."

Huang Rong rolled her eyes: "It sounds like I want to communicate like this."

Seeing Huang Rong's depressed look, Li Changqing smiled.

"Okay, at noon, if you drink the root bone for a few days, you should be able to improve to a higher level. Once the root bone improves, and combined with the wine in the yard, it will not be difficult to break through the innate realm."

"After entering the Xiantian realm and transforming your internal energy into true energy, you can naturally use sound transmission to enter the secret."

After hearing Li Changqing's words, the unhappiness on Huang Rong's face softened.

Then, as if she thought of something, Huang Rong slid her fingers on the table again.

"By the way, are you sure you don't want to ask about Zhou Yonghui's Tang Sect's hidden weapon techniques?"

Li Changqing said softly: "Qihai Dantian has been abolished. Now he is just an ordinary person. Since he is an ordinary person, why are he so entangled?"

On Li Changqing's side, Zhou Yong was just a waiter he recruited.

There are many things about Li Changqing that Zhou Yong will not know.

Li Changqing was not interested in knowing too much about Zhou Yong's past.

As long as Zhou Yong can work peacefully in the tavern, it is enough.

Seeing that Li Changqing didn't take it seriously, Huang Rong stopped worrying about Zhou Yong's affairs.

Then the attention returned to the middle-aged man who entered the tavern for the first time today.

For a long time, Huang Rong touched Li Changqing first, and then raised her finger to write on the table after Li Changqing's attention came to her.

"That man has been coughing. Doesn't he feel very ill?"

Facing Huang Rong's question, Li Changqing responded lightly: "I was injured, and then drank a lot of alcohol. Over time, tuberculosis has formed."

Huang Rong looked surprised: "Is it so serious? Doesn't it mean that you don't have a few days to live?"

Li Changqing shook his head: "Although he is seriously ill, his cultivation is advanced. Although he may feel uncomfortable on weekdays, his life is not worried."

"It's just that due to physical reasons, I can't make any further progress in my cultivation."

After learning about the situation of the person in the house, Huang Rong suddenly had an idea in her mind.

"Would this person be introduced here by Wan Sanqian?"

Yesterday, Li Changqing promised Wan Sanqian to help him save people. Today, a man who is seriously ill and has reached the late stage of the Grand Master Realm has arrived.

It’s hard not to think of Wan Sanqian.

In response, Li Changqing nodded slightly.

"Nine percent possible!"

However, just as Li Changqing's voice reached Huang Rong's ears, a person suddenly entered the tavern.

The material he wears is luxurious, and although it is fluffy, it fits the figure extremely well.

It was Wan Sanqian who sought medical treatment from Li Changqing yesterday.

As Wan Sanqian approached, the eyes of several people in the tavern fell on Wan Sanqian one after another.

Huang Rong's eyes almost immediately locked onto the package held in Wan Sanqian's right hand.

The package is not big, only about five inches in size, but judging from its square shape, it should be wrapped in a box.

Seeing Wan Sanqian, except for Zhou Yong, Xu Chenggui and the middle-aged man all took one look and then looked away.

It wasn't until Wan Sanqian walked to where Li Changqing was that Zhou Yong picked up the wine glass again and drank slowly.

When they got closer, Wan Sanqian raised his hand to Li Changqing.

"Shopkeeper Li."

Facing Wan Sanqian's greeting, Li Changqing smiled and nodded in response: "Hello, Boss Shen, please take a seat."

As Wan Sanqian sat down, at Li Changqing's signal, Huang Rong picked up an empty wine glass and poured Wan Sanqian a glass of wine.

"Thank you girl."

After politely thanking Huang Rong, Wan Sanqian picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

When the wine went down his throat, Wan Sanqian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Sure enough, Shopkeeper Li's wine tastes good."

After giving a polite compliment, Wan Sanqian pushed the package on the table to the center of the table.

"Shopkeeper Li, the boss's eye?"

Hearing what Wan Sanqian said, Li Changqing smiled softly and then gave Huang Rong a look.

After receiving Li Changqing's signal, Huang Rong immediately took the package over.

A few breaths later, as the package was opened, a wooden box suddenly came into Huang Rong's eyes.

The surface texture of the wooden box is unique and exquisite, obviously it was carefully carved by skilled craftsmen.

And after opening, there is still a clear woody smell.

With Huang Rong's knowledge, she immediately identified the scent as sandalwood.

After careful identification, Huang Rong was surprised to find that this wooden box was actually made of sandalwood.

"Sure enough, he is rich, and a box is actually made of sandalwood."

After opening the wooden box, there was an herbal medicine inside.

The herb is about four inches long, shaped like a dog's tail, and has whisker-like roots.

It's just red all over.

And after opening the wooden box, an elegant medicinal fragrance also emerged.

Looking at the herb in the box, Huang Rong's first thought was the common foxtail grass in the suburbs.

When Li Changqing's eyes fell on the box, Wan Sanqian said, "I wonder if shopkeeper Li is satisfied with this medicine?"

Facing Wan Sanqian's question, Li Changqing nodded lightly.

"The blood-tailed aconite can grow to such a size. This blood-tailed aconite is probably thirty years old, which is good."

Hearing what Li Changqing said, Wan Sanqian's eyes flashed, and the smile on his face became a little wider.

"You can actually tell the name and year of this medicine at a glance. Shopkeeper Li's knowledge is indeed extraordinary. Shen admires it."

Hearing this, Li Changqing withdrew his eyes from the box and turned to Wan Sanqian.

"The medicine is good, and it can be used as a consultation fee. I wonder which person in the store does Boss Shen want me to treat? Is it Boss Xu over there, or the customer who just came today?"

After the voice came out, Xu Chenggui, who rarely spoke in the tavern in the past, slowly raised his head and looked at Li Changqing.
