Chapter 147 Little Tales from a Chinese Studio 3
After bidding farewell to Old Lady Chen, Ji Qian and Su Feng headed towards Yuelai Inn.
Su Feng asked, "What does Master think?"
Ji Qian stopped and said, "Kill people and steal treasures." He added, "I'm afraid there are some problems with this sword."
Su Feng said: "Although I haven't seen it, I'm afraid it was left by a monk."
Judging from what Old Lady Chen said, it seemed that the sword had recognized the Chen family as its master, but was forcibly taken away by the thieves.
A sword that can recognize its master is at least at the level of a spiritual sword. The only thing we are afraid of is that it could be used by thieves to do something harmful to the world.
Soon, the flag of Yuelai Inn was seen from afar. Ji Qian and Su Feng's steps seemed to be slow, but they arrived at the door of the inn almost in the next second.
The door of the inn was still closed. Ji Qian knocked on the door. It was a sleepy waiter who came to open the door. He was frightened when he saw the two people and slammed the door shut.
The waiter patted his chest, gasped and chanted "Amitabha". He opened a small crack and looked outside. He saw Ji Qian and Su Feng still outside the door. He didn't know what to do.
Su Feng said, "Little Second Brother, please open the door. We have something to ask you."
The waiter missed a crack and asked tremblingly: "Are you human or ghost?"
Ji Qian smiled and said, “Of course it’s a human.”
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief. He saw the shadows of the two people in the crack of the door. After a while, he opened the door and said respectfully, "Please come in, my two guests." He wiped the table quickly, brought hot tea, and said, "Please enjoy your meal, my guests."
Ji Qian took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into Xiao Er's hand, saying, "Xiao Er brother, we have something we want to ask you."
The waiter was very satisfied with the large amount of silver he received, and said earnestly, "Sir, please feel free to ask me anything. I will tell you everything I know."
Su Feng asked, "Who were those people the night before yesterday?"
The waiter looked embarrassed, bent down and said, "Sir, that group of people are very powerful and cannot be easily offended. They have been looking for the two gentlemen these past two days!"
Ji Qian drank his tea and asked with a smile, "What's so important?"
The waiter said, "It's a group of heavenly masters!"
So that's why. No wonder they want to kill people for treasure.
However, no fluctuations of spiritual power were felt from this group of people.
Ji Qian asked again: "Little Second Brother, do you know where this group of Heavenly Masters went?"
The waiter wiped the table and whispered, "I heard they are going to Huyue City."
Su Feng said, "Thank you, little brother." He stuffed another piece of silver into little brother's hands.
The waiter got two pieces of silver and went downstairs happily.
In that case, let’s go to Huyue City and take a look.
Huyue City was built by the lake and got its name because the full moon is reflected in the lake.
Hu Guan was a well-known wealthy man in Huyue City. He and his wife loved each other dearly and often gave alms, and their good reputation spread far and wide. There was only one bad thing about them: they had no children after more than ten years of marriage.
That day, Hu Guan bought a set of jewelry in the Treasure Pavilion in the city and prepared to take it back as a gift for his wife. He sat in the carriage with joy, just waiting for his wife to be happy when she saw the jewelry.
Suddenly, he saw two people walking on the street. Although they were dressed in ordinary clothes, they had extraordinary temperament and looked like hermits. He immediately wanted to make friends with them, so he asked the coachman to stop and called out to Ji Qian and Su Feng.
Hu Guan bowed and said, "I see that you two have extraordinary temperaments, so I want to make friends with you two."
Seeing Hu Guan's courtesy, Ji Qian returned the greeting and said, "You're welcome." He smiled and said, "Since you want to make friends, you should also remind your father-in-law."
Su Feng said: "You must be careful about the safety of your family members these days."
Hu Guan was immediately furious. He had good intentions to make friends with the two men, but in the end they came to bring bad luck to him. He no longer had the desire to make friends with them. He snorted coldly and walked away.
