Chapter Seventy-Two: The Mysterious Family

The affairs of the Zi family in Zilin City, Huang Wuji knew a little. There is some mystery about the origin of this family, and I have not seriously contacted it in later generations, and when I want to really contact the Zi family, the Zi family has disappeared.

The carriage was moving very slowly, which was relative to Huang Wuji's speed. A day passed, Huang Wuji didn't say a word, the two little maids kept looking at him with strange eyes, and they wanted to have a seizure several times, but they still endured it.

Late at night, the chariots and horses came to a small town, which could not be called a town, but was twice as large as an ordinary village, and in the center of the town stood a wooden pole with an inn written on it.

It's been boring in the carriage for a day, and Huang Wuji saw the wooden pole at first sight after getting out of the car, and the secret path is interesting, and I don't know who named it.

Huang Wuji looked at the two coachmen who were also tired, and it was easy to have accidents when driving tiredly, so he said: "Today, let's rest at the inn in front for one night, and let's set off early tomorrow morning!"

The two coachmen looked at Zilan, the young lady of the Zi family, who had just stepped down from the carriage, with some hesitation. Zilan, the young lady of the Zi family, also felt the gaze of the two coachmen, nodded and said, "This son is right, it's too late, it's dangerous to be in a hurry at this time, let's rest for one night first!"

The two drivers smiled with a hint of glee, they were also tired after a day's drive.

The carriage was too stuffy, Huang Wuji didn't want to go up, and walked alone in the direction of the inn, Zilan, the small family of the Zi family, took a few looks, and stepped into the carriage.

When the coachman saw that Huang Wuji did not get into the car, he did not ask, and drove the carriage past him. When Huang Wuji walked to the door of the inn, the carriage was already tied, and the two innkeepers were holding forage in their hands.

And, one of the two coachmen was waiting at the door of the inn, and when he saw Huang Wuji coming from a distance, he hurriedly ran over and said, "Childe, the room is ready, I'll lead you in!"

Huang Wuji nodded and did not refuse, and his attitude towards the two coachmen was a little better.

As soon as he walked into an inn, a fat innkeeper with fat meat swaying like a wave ran over, looked at Huang Wuji flatteringly and said, "Guest officer, why is it late, I must be hungry, I don't know what I want to eat!"

"No, I'm not used to eating at night, you can go and ask the female guest over there!" Huang Wuji shook his head, and said when he saw Zilan, the young lady of the Zi family, who was standing on the side.

Zilan also heard Huang Wuji's words, and indeed they ate a lot of pastries they brought in the car. After all, pastries belong to snacks, I haven't eaten a hot meal for a day, and I miss it a little in my heart, and when I saw the expectant eyes of the two little girls, I nodded and said: "Shopkeeper, let's have a few good dishes, staple steamed buns and rice!"

When the fat shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly ran to Zilan's side and reported his best dishes, such as stir-fried pork loin, sauced beef, etc. Don't underestimate the amount of food that women in this world eat, Zilan and the two little maids are also people who practice martial arts, although their cultivation is not very good, but they quickly ordered more than a dozen dishes.

The fat shopkeeper happily walked to the back of the inn, thinking that he had gone to ask the cook to prepare the meal. Looking at the fat shopkeeper who was almost jumping up happily, a cold light flashed in Huang Wuji's eyes, and a sneer suddenly appeared on his expressionless cheeks, which flashed in a flash.

Huang Wuji is not a fledgling little ghost, I don't believe that in the middle of the night, and the inn will wake up the cook to prepare the meal, you must know that at this time, the fire in the general kitchen is extinguished, and it takes longer to relight it than to cook.

Usually at this time, the store of the Du Inn will prepare some freshly eaten meals such as sauced beef, it is impossible to cook on the fire for one or two guests, there must be a problem, but Huang Wuji did not say it.

The two coachmen on the side didn't know if they were newcomers or old Jianghu, and they didn't have any expression on their faces, but Huang Wuji knew that these two coachmen were not simple, and they could detect the spiritual power fluctuations on the two of them from the beginning, at least they were the third in the Eight Realms.

In about a quarter of an hour, the fat shopkeeper ran out of the backyard kitchen, carrying a huge tray full of fragrant meals, a total of fifteen, no more and no less.

The two little maids who followed Zilan were obviously inexperienced, and the young lady of the Zi family was the same, looking at the fragrant food, her eyes followed the tray.

In the end, it is a woman, if the young master of that family is changed, maybe she will directly rob the fat shopkeeper and swallow all the trays. The fat shopkeeper smiled and placed the delicacies on the tray on Zilan's table one by one, while introducing the name of each dish.

After the fat shopkeeper finished the introduction, the two little maids couldn't wait to eat, and the Zi family lady Zilan next to her suddenly shouted: "Wait, don't worry!", said and took out a silver long needle from his arms, and lightly tapped it a few times in a plate of delicacies, seeing that the silver needle did not change color, he nodded at the two little maids with confidence.

And, the fat shopkeeper with a smile on his face, after seeing the actions of Miss Zilan of the Zi family, a cold light flashed in his squinted eyes, and his face was still smiling, and he didn't seem to be affected at all.

Huang Wuji also saw the actions of the Zi family's young lady Zilan, and nodded secretly in his heart. Although it is not polite, it is still said that women are careful.

The fat shopkeeper saw Huang Wuji sitting on the side, and walked over with a smile and said, "This son doesn't eat some!"

"No need!" Huang Wuji suddenly laughed and replied shaking his head. The fat shopkeeper looked at the immovable emperor Wuji, turned to look at the two coachmen, and the two coachmen were even more straightforward, and directly took out the dry food from his arms and gnawed it.

The fat shopkeeper's body was stunned suddenly, and soon returned to its original appearance and quietly stepped aside.

The whole inn seemed to fall into silence, and only the chirping and shouting of the two little maids eating next to it brought a touch of life to the inn. Zilan, the young lady of the Zi family, who was eating, also gradually felt the atmosphere in the inn, looking at Huang Wuji with a weird smile, and the coachman who was silently gnawing on dry food.

Zi Lan, the young lady of the Zi family, changed her expression suddenly, and said to the two little maids, "Don't eat, let's get ready to go!" The cheerful little maids who were eating, when they heard their young lady's words, although they were unwilling, they still put down the chopsticks in their hands.

Miss Zi Lan looked at the smiling fat shopkeeper on the side, and asked in a gentle voice, "Shopkeeper, how much is it in total!"

"Why, could it be that the small shop didn't greet the guests well, making the guests uncomfortable!" The smiling fat shopkeeper walked respectfully in front of Zilan and said with an apologetic face.

"No, no, it's just that I suddenly remembered that there was something important to do, and I couldn't stay for a long time!" Zilan is not stupid, and it is impossible to directly say that the situation is not good.

"Oh, so that's the case, a total of 200,000 taels of silver!" As soon as the fat shopkeeper's words fell, the two little maids who stayed next to him couldn't help jumping out and scolded loudly: "What 200,000 taels of silver, your food is made of gold, even if it is made of gold, it won't cost much money, you are blackmailing, it is a black shop!"

At this time, Huang Wuji laughed, looked at the two little maids and said jokingly: "Unexpectedly, you two little girls have also been smart for a while, and you are really in the black shop!"

When the two little maids heard Huang Wuji's appreciative tone, they felt very awkward in their hearts, and looked at the two of them, and couldn't help but mutter, "What, it's about the same age as us!"

Huang Wuji's ears are not bad, and he heard the conversation between the two little girls, but he was not angry at this time, but he appreciated the straightforwardness of the two little girls, which belonged to the type of childlike innocence.

"This shopkeeper, 200,000 taels is too expensive, let's make friends when you go out, how about a price of 10,000 taels!" Zilan, the young lady of the Zi family, obviously didn't want to cause trouble, so she decided to break the bank and eliminate the disaster.

It's a pity that the smiling fat shopkeeper didn't eat this at all, and his humble voice became high: "It's impossible." The eldest lady of the Zi family in the famous Zilan City can't even afford to pay a mere 200,000 taels of silver!".

Miss Zilan of the Zi family heard the fat shopkeeper call her identity, her expression immediately changed dramatically, and she became vigilant and said: "Who are you, you know that I am a member of the Zi family, and you dare to provoke me!"

"Hehe, the Zi family is nothing remarkable, today Miss Zilan didn't obediently hand over 200,000 taels of silver, I'm afraid she won't be able to get out of this door!" the fat shopkeeper said and clapped his hands gently, and from the dark night around him, dozens of people suddenly walked out to surround the inn, everyone's cultivation is not bad, the lowest is the peak of the ninth layer of self-cultivation, and the highest is the fat shopkeeper, the sixth of the eight realms.

Miss Zi Lan of the Zi family is not a fool, she looked at the surrounding forms and said, "It seems that if I don't hand over 200,000 taels of silver today, don't even think about walking out of this door!"

"Miss Zilan is indeed smart, and the little one is also acting according to orders, don't embarrass us, let's go with us obediently!" The fat shopkeeper said as if there was no malice at all, but the formation of dozens of people around him tightly showed one thing.

"It's so funny!" As the fat shopkeeper and Zilan were talking, a familiar voice suddenly interjected.

The fat shopkeeper turned his head to look at Huang Wuji, and said with a cold face: "Little ghost, it's best not to be nosy, otherwise, you can only meet your parents under the Nine Springs!"

"Oh, you really have such ability!" Huang Wuji narrowed his eyes inertly, the cold light of the Dao Dao flickered in his pupils, and the cold and piercing killing intent spread out from his body.

"Boy, who are you!" Feeling Huang Wuji's cold and terrifying killing intent, the fat shopkeeper suddenly became vigilant and asked.

"You are not qualified to ask my name, nor do you have a chance to know it, because you are dead!"

Huang Wuji said that the killing intent was in full swing, falling from the sky like hail in a storm, and the wooden structure of the inn could not withstand such a strong killing intent, and some places had already cracked.
