My timeless tavern

Chapter 504 Ying Ning
There was an inexplicable silence in the pub for a moment.

Many people looked towards the woman.

It was her first time at the tavern, and on the surface she didn't seem to cause any commotion, but in fact many people were secretly paying attention to her.

Especially her innocence and the smile that always hangs on her face make people feel very fond of her, as if just looking at her for a few more seconds can make people forget their worries.

A child born from a human and a fox, and raised by a ghost mother?
This strange combination attracted the interest of many people.

Some people even looked at Yan Chixia and Xu Xian and others.

Ghosts can have children with humans only in the worlds where they live. In many other worlds, there is reproductive isolation between non-human creatures, and drinking alien gene inheritance wine is of no use.

Seeing many people looking at her, the woman blinked blankly, but the smile on her face did not disappear.

That naive look made Nie Xiaoqian feel very amused.

She reached out and pinched the woman's cheek, saying, "So, we are all destined to meet each other!"

"Ah, you are all born from foxes?" the woman asked.

Tushan Honghong coughed lightly, then stood on tiptoe like a little adult, put her arm around her shoulders and said, "They are different. Only our mother is a fox."

Seeing the woman's suspicious look, Nie Xiaoqian smiled and said, "I'm the same as your adoptive mother."

The woman opened her mouth in disbelief.

She looked Nie Xiaoqian up and down, but couldn't tell that she was a ghost.

Seeing her confusion, Tushan Honghong smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoqian is very powerful and has already transformed into an immortal body. It doesn't matter whether she is a human or a ghost."

There was a hint of envy in her tone.

"Immortal?" The woman still smiled, but her tone could not hide her surprise.

But soon, her expression returned to normal.

She felt a breath of fresh air from Nie Xiaoqian, which was not something that ordinary ghosts could have.

She looked at Xiaobai and Xiaoqing again.

Both of them have excellent temperaments, like fairies. Could it be that they are the same as this Sister Xiaoqian?
"Our true form is snakes." Xiaoqing said, opening her mouth and sticking out her tongue.

Looking at the fork on the tip of her tongue, the woman was startled and the smile on her face seemed a little unnatural.

"Hehe, are you scared?" Xiaoqing said with a proud tone.

Xiaobai glared at his sister helplessly. Just as he was about to comfort her, he saw the woman's smile return to normal and asked, "Are you two sisters snake demons?"

"Yes." Xiaobai said.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with being born a snake.

After entering the tavern, her strength improved by leaps and bounds, and she had already transformed into a dragon.

Her current true form should more accurately be called a dragon.

Even the gentleman would touch his dragon tail occasionally.

As a regular employee of a pub, she would not have the inferiority complex of being an "outsider".

"What's your sister's name?" Nie Xiaoqian looked at the girl in front of her and found her more and more pleasing to the eye.

Growing up with a ghost mother, the woman is filled with a strong ghost aura.

Her smile is sincere and pure, with the power to infect people's hearts.

"My name is Yingning." The woman said with a sweet smile.

"Oh, it's Sister Yingning." Tushan Honghong said with a smile.

After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that several people were looking at her with strange expressions.

Yingning looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, not very old, but Tushan Honghong is much younger.

She was less than 1.5 meters tall, with baby fat on her face, and looked much younger than Lin Daiyu.

"You should call me sister." Xiaobai chuckled.

"Yes, yes, yes." Xiaoqing said, "Honghong is the youngest, she is our little sister."

Nie Xiaoqian didn't say anything, but just reached out and touched Tushan Honghong's head.

Her fingers brushed across Tushan's red fox ears, causing a blush to appear on her face.

Tushan Honghong pouted.

Seeing Yingning looking at her expectantly, she could only say, "Sister Yingning."

Yingning was so happy that her bell-like laughter attracted a lot of attention.

Ying Yinman, who was talking to Su Luo, glanced over here.

She smiled and said, "Sir, this sister Yingning is very suitable to join the tavern."

Yingning's unbridled and innocent smile is perfect for a tavern.

Just hearing her smile, Ying Yinman felt a lot better.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Feng Baobao who was sitting obediently on the other side.

Compared with Yingning, Feng Baobao is simply at the other extreme.

Even though she had gathered all eight unique skills and was able to uncover her origins, it didn't seem to have any effect on her personality.

After all, her condition is really special.

While being transformed by the Eight Great Techniques, she had essentially severed her connection with the past.

She gained the purest "rebirth".

As time went by in the tavern and his strength increased rapidly, the expression on Feng Baobao's face gradually became more lively.

If I stay with Yingning for a long time, maybe she will grow faster.

Sensing Ying Yinman's thoughts, Su Luo glanced at Feng Baobao beside him and nodded, "You can observe for a while. If you are interested, you can invite her."

"Thank you, sir." Ying Yinman smiled sweetly.

There was also a hint of anticipation in Feng Baobao's eyes.

……

Yingning's innocent smile infected many people.

Nie Xiaoqian and the others had a very good impression of her and they had a very pleasant conversation with each other.

She looks innocent, but she's not really worldly-wise.

When she heard several people introduce the magical wines and treasures in the tavern, she was quite interested, but she quickly suppressed the greed in her heart.

As a lonely fox girl, although she has magical powers, those powers are so minimal that she can only barely protect herself, let alone other things.

Although those fine wines and treasures were nice, she didn't think she could get them.

"This place is so magical, I wish my mother could come here too." Yingning said longingly.

After several people asked, they found out that the mother she was talking about was her adoptive mother.

Yinggu died early. Due to some special reasons, she embarked on a spiritual journey and survived in the world as a ghost, unable to reincarnate.

After her death, her husband lived with a fox demon and gave birth to Yingning.

Not long after the fox demon gave birth to Yingning, she was chased by a Taoist priest. She was seriously injured and entrusted the fox girl to Yinggu before she died.

Yinggu is a ghost after all. Even though she entered into spiritual practice by chance and stayed in the human world for a few more years, her soul deteriorated as time went by.

If she doesn't reincarnate in time, her soul will be torn apart soon.

In addition, there are some people who claim to be slayers and defenders of justice who are eyeing us covetously.

"Mother always said that once she found a good family for me, she could leave with peace of mind." Yingning said this with a smile on her face, but with a hint of sadness.

Hearing her concern, the others laughed out loud.

Yingning looked at them in confusion.

"As long as you spend 100 Spacetime Coins, you can have your mother come over." Nie Xiaoqian explained with a smile, "Once she comes to the tavern, all of this won't be a problem."

She immediately explained the invitation rules of the tavern to Yingning.

After hearing this, Yingning's expression relaxed a lot.

Nie Xiaoqian took the opportunity to help her identify her own value.

Like Ying Yinman and Xiaolongnu, she was also given the authority to purchase treasures by Su Luo.

Seeing that her skills and cultivation level only added up to 500 time and space coins, many people shook their heads secretly.

Tushan Honghong had long seen that Yingning was weak, but she had not expected her magic power to be so low.

The leaves of the bitter love tree that she stole were worth more than this price.

Instead, Yingning cheered and was delighted. Five hundred time-space coins were enough for him to invite his mother over.

She spent all her time and space coins to buy a glass of twenty-year Taoist wine.

Holding the wine glass, her face was full of joy.

Even though most of the guests in the tavern looked down upon such cheap wine and even Uncle Jiu disdained it, Yingning regarded it as a treasure.

She didn't drink it, but planned to give it to her mother.

Nie Xiaoqian and the others had nothing to do, so when they heard Yingning say that he wanted to give the wine to his mother, they said they would go and take a look together.

They won't be short of those one hundred time and space coins.

Yingning readily agreed.

Seeing such a newcomer just coming to the tavern and leaving together with Nie Xiaoqian and others, Yan Chixia and others withdrew their gaze in disappointment.

They felt that Yingning's world was similar to theirs and were very interested in making friends with her.

However, the other party was getting along well with Nie Xiaoqian and the others, so it was obvious that he had no chance with them.

Nie Xiaoqian and her friends’ circle is much stronger than theirs.

Maybe next time Yingning will become a tavern staff member.

……

"Yingning" plane.

On a small hill, a gentle breeze blows.

The whole mountain and field are covered with peach blossoms in full bloom, and people can be seen everywhere enjoying the flowers.

The appearance of Yingning and others did not attract the attention of others.

Tushan Honghong looked around, jumped lightly onto a branch, picked a peach blossom, sniffed it gently, put it on her head, and said with a smile: "This place has a nice view!"

"Yes, the flowers here are so beautiful!" Yingning laughed wildly.

She was originally admiring the flowers when she was suddenly invited to a tavern.

She was a little nervous at first, but now she is just excited.

Yingning happily chatted with a few people and took them home.

Halfway through the walk, Nie Xiaoqian and Xiaobai suddenly turned around.

They all felt a burning gaze staring at them.

When they looked back and saw a scholar with a silly look on his face, they looked at each other and smiled.

In the past, they often went to other worlds to shop and play, and often received various gifts of attention.

Some brave people will even come up and chat with you shamelessly.

But often before they even get close, they would use a little trick to make them leave in shame.

They are very confident about their appearance.

Even though she was still young, Tushan Honghong was still stunningly beautiful among the human world.

……

the other side.

Seeing Wang Zifu staring blankly into the distance, Wu Sheng, who was traveling with him, was puzzled. He looked in the direction of his gaze, but saw only a few figures gradually moving away.

"Cousin, what sucked away your soul?" Wu Sheng asked with a smile.

Wang Zifu said blankly: "What a beautiful fairy."

"Fairy?" Wu Sheng was surprised.

He looked around and saw many men and women outing around, but none of them seemed to be fairies.

"Don't you see, they are so beautiful." Wang Zifu's expression was still dazed.

He just heard a burst of straightforward and pleasant laughter, and when he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw several women who looked like they had walked out of a painting.

The women were so beautiful that it seemed as if his soul had been seduced away.

"Do you have someone you like?" Wu Sheng asked.

Wang Zifu shook his head with a sense of loss.

The voices and appearances of the women lingered in his mind, making him feel even more ashamed of himself.

He realized that they were not from the same world and he could never get close to her.

"I'm not worthy of them." Wang Zifu sighed.

He was not aware that he was being affected by the spell.

Yingning was even less aware that her original marriage had been broken up.

Only Tushan Honghong looked back as if she sensed something, but did not take it seriously.

She had no interest in the fluctuations of marriage in such a different world.

I am a guest who has come from afar and come here to have fun. There is no need to go to the trouble of matchmaking.

Just when they were halfway there, they heard a surprised cheer.

A girl dressed as a maid walked towards Yingning.

The girl looked smart, with alertness in her eyes.

She was obviously wary of the people walking with Yingning.

Before, she went out for an outing and flower viewing with Yingning, but she saw that the other person suddenly disappeared, which almost scared her to death.

After much difficulty in finding her, I didn't expect that there would be a few strangers with extraordinary temperament around Yingning.

When Yingning saw her, her smile became even more intense. She took her hand and introduced her to several people.

The girl's name is Xiaorong. She was entrusted by Yingning's fox demon's biological mother to stay by her side, to look for food, and to handle chores. She is her good friend and playmate.

Xiaorong was shocked to hear Yingning's straightforward introduction.

It was not until she saw Tushan Honghong's undisguised fox tail that her fear turned into astonishment.

"Where are you from?" she asked puzzledly.

She is familiar with all the monsters within hundreds of miles, and there are no other fox spirits.

Could it be that he is from another place visiting relatives?
Yingning’s distant relative?
"You will know later!" Yingning introduced it with a smile without further explanation.

Xiaorong is her closest friend, and she will invite him to the tavern sooner or later.

Unfortunately, she has no money now, so she can only wait until next time.

Several people walked towards Yingning's home together.

Passing through the wild mountains and wilderness, the surrounding population gradually became sparse.

Not long after, a scent of flowers suddenly wafted.

Nie Xiaoqian looked into the distance and saw a beautiful sea of ​​flowers.

In the middle of the sea of ​​flowers, there was a lonely tomb standing there.

As they approached, a faint mist emanated from the tomb.

When they got closer, they saw a magnificent mansion in front of them.

An old woman with a cane stood in front of the house with a gentle smile on her face.

A hint of realization flashed across Nie Xiaoqian's eyes.

She now understood why the dying fox demon had entrusted Yingning to this Yinggu.

In addition to the fact that Yinggu is Yingning's biological mother, it is also related to her strength.

Her strength is self-evident as she is able to support such an illusion.

I think it is precisely because of this that she has been able to protect Yingning for so many years.

Of course, this kind of strength is only relative to ordinary people. In the eyes of Nie Xiaoqian, Xiaobai and Xiaoqing, such an illusion is nothing but a show of skill in front of an expert.

She looked at it twice more, without paying any special attention to it, and the illusion in front of her began to shake and tended to collapse.

Yinggu's face turned pale with anger.

Ying Ning cheered, threw herself into Ying Gu's arms, and said with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, they are my friends!"
