Chapter 667: The First Foothold
This city is really not big, it seems that there is only one scale of the lower city, of course, it is only the specifications of the lower city of the Central China Empire. Other countries are not certain. However, there are not many people inside, and it is not even said that the defense system of the lower city has not been reached. The city walls are not very high, and the population density inside is relatively small, so it seems that there are not many people coming and going. And it seems that most of them are just passers-by.
At this time, the position of the Golden Pupil and them was only in the west of the Shenwu Continent, which was not too far, but it was already some distance away from the Divine Void Academy. At least it's out of the realm of the Divine Void Academy. But that's just the beginning. Huang Jian knew that he had been here a few times before, but he mainly only came here to rest or have a cup of tea. And they won't stay overnight because they haven't had the time to sleep here yet, and they still have a long way to go.
And they only come here because some people are really tired, and if they don't rest, it is likely to affect their actions later. But in fact, Chen Fei and them are fine. It's not too tired, but it's more or less tired, and this tiredness is not physical, but mental. No matter how much pills you eat, a person's energy is always limited, and when they reach the limit, there will still be some small situations.
Not only them, but some of the Xuanzi disciples were also a little physically exhausted. They are not like Jin Tong and the others, who also have pills to replenish their physical strength, but they are really completely on their own, and they do not rest for several hours in a row. This is already very rare, at least Chen Fei is difficult for them to do this.
After entering this city, Huang Jian took them to a small inn, although it was not too big, but it was very clean and refreshing after entering. At least Jin Tong and the others are still very satisfied, and it is already very good to have such an inn in this place.
"Yo, guest officer, how many people are there, are you sharp-eyed or do you stay in the hotel?"
As soon as Huang Jian and the others entered, a shopkeeper ran up and greeted him.
"Let's take a break and have a cup of tea. Do you have a seat here? The old man has been here a few times, and he has brewed ten pots of Biyue Luochun for the old man. "Huang Jian is light and familiar with the road.
"Okay, everyone, please inside, there's a seat inside. Guest, you are, small counts, one, two, three...... Well, there are twenty-one people in total. In this way, a table is made of four people, and one more person is squeezed, do you think it's okay?" The shopkeeper still doesn't know about the establishment of the golden pupils, they are a team of five, how can they do it separately?
"Forget it, so be it, this table is not small. The five of you sit at a table, just apart. The old man sits at a table alone, and the old man doesn't like to be disturbed by others. Go for it, that's all. Huang Jian said.
"It's Elder Huang. ”
The shopkeeper was stunned, but didn't say anything. Since everyone has arranged it like this, he naturally doesn't want to intervene anymore. So I planned to retire and prepare. After all, he could see that this elderly man should have taken his disciples with him and didn't know where to go, and it was very likely that he had been trained. And it seems that they should not come here once or twice, even their treasure Biyue Luo Chun knows it. Naturally, I don't dare to have any neglect.
"Wait, are you hungry?" Huang Jian asked, looking at the disciples. Although he said that he didn't need to eat, it didn't mean that these disciples didn't eat, and he didn't think about it just now, so it wasn't too late to ask.
"Elder Huang, we have Bigu Dan with us, we can eat Bigu Dan. A disciple spoke.
"That's different, Bigu Dan is Bigu Dan, and it is eaten when there is no way. But now that you have arrived at such an inn, how can you not eat some cooked food? Since the old man has brought you out, he will naturally take care of you. Otherwise, after I go back, the lord of the house will say that I am not the same. After all, you are all the treasures of the Divine Void Academy, and you are the glory of the Divine Void Academy. Huang Jian shook his head and said.
It's actually a high-level disciple of the Divine Void Academy, no wonder, no wonder, it looks like he's going to tell the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper couldn't help but think in his heart.
"Alright, you can just have a table of good dishes on each table. This is not the last stop of our trip, there will be more in the future, so we don't have to eat too much. Otherwise, it's a little slow when you're in a hurry. That's not good. Huang Jian thought for a while.
"Okay, everyone, wait a minute. The shopkeeper couldn't help but speed up and retreat. commanded the kitchen, and then ran to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper!"
"What's it called, I said Xiao Li, it's so rough and rough that the guest officer can see it, and you can't eat? ”
"Shopkeeper, did you see a group of people just here?" asked the shopkeeper.
"It's the twenty or so people who just came in, right? See, didn't I tell you to go and greet people? Did you offend people? Why don't you go and make amends!" the shopkeeper nodded.
"No, it's not, the shopkeeper knows where they come from!" said the shopkeeper excitedly.
"What is the origin? What can be the origin of those who pass by us? But I have seen the man in the lead, but I can't remember it for a moment. The shopkeeper looked at Huang Jian and thought for a long time, muttering to himself.
"You don't know, they're from the Divine Void Academy!"
"What?God, the Divine Void Academy? Are you right? They are from the Divine Void Academy?" the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly widened like a brass bell.
"How dare I lie to you, the shopkeeper! I heard them with my own ears!"
"Oh, yes, no wonder I feel familiar. That old man should be the elder of the Divine Void Academy! I remember that his surname seemed to be Huang, yes, his surname was Huang! I saw it when I was a young boy and a shopkeeper. At that time, the old shopkeeper also took me to worship others. I heard the old shopkeeper say that this elder has come to our store several times before. We've been in the store for a long time. It's a time-honored brand, this old-timer just likes to drink our Biyue Luochun, did he order this tea?" said the shopkeeper with a pat on his thigh.
"Yes, that's it. But shopkeeper, you saw him when you were a kid?"
I heard the old shopkeeper say that this senior came when he was a child. It seems that this senior is probably very old!, but it is also, the elder of the Divine Void Academy. Strength goes without saying. It's not surprising how old they are. It's not like us ordinary people, who have such a short lifespan. Go, come with me! Visit this old-timer. The shopkeeper hurriedly jumped down from his chair, and didn't settle the account, but walked in front of Huang Jian with the shopkeeper.
"Seniors, Huang seniors, I don't know that Huang seniors are coming, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome! The shopkeeper hurriedly said to Huang Jian.
Huang Jian raised his head, frowned and looked at the shopkeeper and said, "You, can the old man know you?"
"Senior Huang is naturally a noble person who forgets things, I am the second little shopkeeper when you came to us for tea fifty years ago. At that time, the old shopkeeper still brought this, and I asked you to come here. You don't remember it all the time. The shopkeeper said with a smile. It really made him excited to be able to talk to such a big person! After all, Huang Jian was an elder of the Divine Void Academy, how could such a noble status be something that a small innkeeper like him could afford?
"Uh-huh, oh, it's you, the old man remembers. You were clever at the time, yes. I did see you fifty years ago. What's the matter, you're still here?" Huang Jian thought for a moment. His strength is not bad, and his memory is naturally not too bad. After all, martial artists are not the same as ordinary people, and ordinary people may forget one thing quickly. Of course, in addition to being like this shopkeeper, this incident is naturally fresh in my memory.
However, Huang Jian thought about it a little and could still think of it. Fifty years ago, the last time I was here, I had seen such a little guy. At that time, he was just a shopkeeper, but he was smart, and Huang Jian had some impressions.
"No, no, because I'm honest. At that time, the old shopkeeper had no children, so he left this inn to me, the shopkeeper at that time. Now I'm the shopkeeper of this inn. The shopkeeper smiled.
"Well, that's good. Your shop, the old man's favorite thing is that Biyue Luochun. It's really a good tea! We rested and left. Huang Jian nodded.
"Don't worry, come right away, come right away. The shopkeeper bowed his waist again and again and retreated.
