My master can't be so gentle

Under the leadership of Yuan Xuan, the group finally gradually approached the border of the Great You Dynasty.

"Why does this place look more desolate than Guifang Kingdom?" Ye Lan, who was lying on top of Shi Lingguang's head, complained standing in front of the gate of the narrow and desolate ancient town of Longcheng.

"What you guys don't know is that since the emperor of the You Dynasty changed, the new emperor has recruited a large group of talented people to work beside him. He listened to the advice of the great master around him and wanted to build a building leading to the The Tongtian Pagoda in the Heaven Realm arrests young and strong laborers all over the country and sends them to Youdu, so the laborers in these border towns escape and arrest them, and naturally there are not many people left." Yuan Xuan smiled. explained.

Afterwards, he foolishly glanced at Ye Lan, then glanced again, and suddenly turned to look at Zuo Yao: "Senior, what kind of spiritual pet do you have that can speak human language?"

As we all know, only demon cultivators who have cultivated to the demon core stage have the ability to communicate with humans.

"Ah? Did I speak?" Ye Lan was also taken aback for a moment, and then realized later, "I can actually speak!"

Zuo Yao glanced at it, and had nothing to say about this holy beast that couldn't even grasp its own power level.

"It's just a parrot." Shi Lingguang fooled with a half-smile.

"Oh," Yuan Xuan nodded earnestly, "I haven't seen a parrot of this color before, it's so pretty, what's its name?"

"night......"

"Bengbeng, it's called Bengbeng." Shi Lingguang quickly pinched the beak of a certain bird, "Mutated parrot, it looks a little more unique."

Ye Lan was forced to swallow the swear words in her stomach.

"Bounce." Yuan Xuan smiled happily, "What a lively little guy."

Ye Lan presented him with a pair of big white eyes, a fool, a big fool with eyes that does not recognize the real holy beast.

Zuo Yao's eyes lightly drifted past Ye Lan's brilliant Ruoxia feathers, and his eyes darkened for a moment.

After a few people entered the city on foot, they realized that the scene inside the city was even more desolate than outside.

The dilapidated shop signs swayed in the wind, and the street was covered with a thick layer of yellow sand. Occasionally, a few women in headscarves could be seen passing by in a hurry, with unconcealable sadness in their brows. .

After seeing a few of them who were obviously not locals entering the city, the pedestrians on the street accelerated their pace of leaving.

"I always feel that the way they look at us is not quite right." Hongdou rubbed her chin and said.

Those people stared at them, as if they were staring at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"I know there is an inn ahead. I stayed with Master before." Yuan Xuan volunteered to lead the way.

A quarter of an hour later, a group of people stopped in front of a dilapidated earthen building.

The signboard made of wood swayed in the wind, and the signboard was covered with a layer of loess, and the four big black characters of "Guest to the Inn" on it could only be vaguely recognized.

The two wooden doors of the inn were also missing, and the hall inside was unobstructed.

A few tables, chairs, and benches that were at least a few inches thick in dust were piled up in a mess, covered with marks of knives and swords, and the counter next to it was also covered with thick dust.

A young man in a thick gray-black jacket was lazily sleeping on the counter, with a few dust spots on his face, making it hard to see his true face.

"Huh?" Yuan Xuan stepped into the store in a daze, looked around, and then pushed the young man who was sleeping on the counter to ask, "Where is your boss and lady? Why haven't I seen you for more than a month? Has it become like this?"

The young man raised his head lazily, and Zuo Yao, Shi Lingguang and others glanced at Yuan Xuan calmly.

"Are you blind? This girl is right here!" The young man uttered out the crisp and mellow voice unique to young girls, "Should I stay at the hotel? There is no way to be at the top. My father is not here, and the chef is not. If you stay at the hotel Clean the room by yourself, one tael per room, you can choose whatever you want.”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yuan Xuan scratched his head with an embarrassed smile, "You suddenly changed your attire, and I haven't noticed that it's you. Ali, do you remember me? A month ago, Master and I Come and live in your store together."

Ali, a girl disguised as a woman, hesitated for a moment, looked at Yuan Xuan and then at Zuo Yao and the others behind him: "Are you all monks?"

Yuan Xuan nodded: "That's right."

Who knows that Ali's face changed suddenly when he heard the words: "Go out, we don't have any rooms in the inn, so we won't accept you."

Zuo Yao glanced at A Li lightly: "Why doesn't the girl welcome cultivators? Have you been bullied by monks?"

The girl didn't answer Zuo Yao's words at all, but just pointed in the direction of the gate and repeated her own words stubbornly: "Get out!"

"Ali, can we pay you more money?" Yuan Xuan tried to persuade the girl, "We walked all the way, and saw that there were ten rooms and nine empty rooms on the street, and there was no other inn open. If you have any embarrassing secrets, just say it , if I can do it, I will help you solve it. If I can't, these seniors must have a way, they are very powerful."

Zuo Yao: "???"

He seems to have heard something strange?

"Senior?" A Li's expression softened, and he glanced at Zuo Yao in doubt.

She has also heard that there are many powerful monks in the upper realm who are able to maintain their youthful appearance.

This young monk was imposing at first glance, and he could be treated so cautiously by Yuan Xuan, maybe he really has some skills.

"Forget it, you guys better go." After a moment of silence, Ali shook his head lightly, his expression was a little more relaxed than before, "You are not their opponents, there are very powerful monks among them who specialize in dealing with the past Several monks staying overnight have already been killed by them."

"Tell me about 'them'." Zuo Yao threw a low-grade spirit stone to Ali.

Ali glanced at the translucent spirit stone in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then seemed to have changed his mind, and secretly beckoned to several people to follow him to the backyard.

"About half a month ago, soldiers from Youdu were recruiting in the city, and my father was forcibly conscripted away."

Ali poured tea for them, and said with a sad expression, "But then a group of strange monks came to Dragon City, they took my father away, and asked me to wait in the inn. Find a way to keep them and then notify them."

Hong Dou lowered his head and took a sip of the tea. He thought the taste was mediocre, so he threw the cup aside and squatted next to the stool to chew his nails.

On the contrary, Yuan Xuan drank up the tea in a very face-saving manner, and smacked his mouth when he finished drinking: "The taste of this water is still as clear as ever."

A Li poured him another cup with a smile: "The spring water in Moon Spring is of course better than ordinary tea."

"Then how do you usually get in touch with those people?" Zuo Yao looked at the girl calmly, and at the same time pulled Shi Lingguang to his side, and stuffed a lotus seed candy into his mouth.

Ali hesitated for a moment, then took out a messenger talisman from his pocket: "Just light this up, and they will arrive within half an hour."

Zuo Yao raised his eyebrows slightly, and only glanced lightly at the talisman in Ali's hand, and the yellow talisman suddenly ignited spontaneously.

Ali was taken aback, and immediately let go, only to see that the messenger talisman wobbled in the air and spontaneously ignited until there was no ashes left.

"How could you ignite it?" A Li came back to his senses, and immediately berated nervously in a low voice, "Do you know that you will cause big trouble?"

"Ali, your story is pretty good." Zuo Yao looked at Ali without changing his expression, "but there is still a loophole, you haven't told us how you left behind those cultivation bases on your own. Not a lowly monk."

Ali's complexion changed slightly, he took two steps back inadvertently, and pretended to be calm: "I don't know what you're talking about."

Zuo Yaoyun glanced at her calmly, "The spirit-locking pill in this tea is only effective for monks below the golden core stage, so your expectations may come to nothing."

Ali finally showed a bit of panic: "Are you a monk in the golden core period?"

"That's not true." Zuo Yao shook his head in denial.

There was a bit of expectation in A Li's heart, maybe Zuo Yao was able to see through the Locking Pill in the tea just because he had seen this kind of pill before, not because he was a Golden Core stage monk.

"Senior is... a cultivator at the transformation stage..." Yuan Xuan's body swayed in place, and after struggling to squeeze out the words, he finally couldn't hold back the discomfort in his body, and his face fell to the ground It fell, stirring up dust on the ground.

Transformation period?

Ali felt that she wanted to faint now too.

Even if she is not a monk from the upper realm, she can understand the meaning of these three words.

This time, she might have gotten into big trouble.

"Is it convenient to borrow the kitchen?" Zuo Yao asked very politely.

A Li pointed to the location of the kitchen in the backyard with trembling fingers.

Zuo Yao nodded slightly, took Shi Lingguang to the kitchen in the backyard, and asked him as he walked, "What do you want to eat?"

The little apprentice is growing up, and eating Bigu Dan every day is not good for his health.Zuo Yao also seized every opportunity to cook for Shi Lingguang, hoping to make his little apprentice stronger.

Shi Lingguang suddenly became happy: "Master likes everything he cooks, and he can eat anything."

Yuan Xuan who was lying in the yard was speechless looking at the sky, does anyone remember what kind of elixir he took?

Hongdou squatted beside him and looked at him strangely: "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Xuan's hard luck forced out part of the elixir in his body, and then he was surprised to find that Hongdou also drank the tea but didn't respond at all: "Why are you all right?"

Hongdou scratched her head in confusion: "Do I need something?"

"Didn't you know that the tea was mixed with magic medicine?" Yuan Xuan asked with difficulty.

"I know, don't you know?" Hong Dou asked him back.

Yuan Xuan wept silently, he was stupid, he was not cultivated enough and drank the tea brought by Ali to be recruited, didn't you see that senior Sword Immortal didn't even touch that teacup?

After A Li remained silent for a long time, he froze and stuffed the pill in Yuan Xuan's mouth.

Yuan Xuan regained his composure and sat up as soon as he rolled over, looking at Ali angrily: "We never offended girls before, why did you treat us like this?"

Ali paused, biting his lower lip and refused to speak, his attitude of wanting to kill or cut whatever he wanted made Yuan Xuan even more helpless.

"What smells so good!" Yuan Xuan suddenly smelled a strange and rich fragrance in the air, and couldn't help taking a sip of saliva.

This scent is so alluring, even though he has been a monk who has not eaten fireworks for a long time, he can feel that the saliva that is constantly secreted in his mouth is about to overflow the corners of his mouth.

Even Ali swallowed secretly after hearing the smell.

I saw Zuo Yao walking out of the small kitchen unhurriedly while holding hands. After Zuo Yao waved his hand and put a set of clean tables and chairs in the yard, a row full of freshly cooked bowls and chopsticks was pressed. The order floated out of the kitchen and landed lightly on the table. Finally, there was a bowl of emerald green japonica rice, and a pair of emerald chopsticks with rich emerald color and clear head were placed beside it.

"Eat." Zuo Yao rubbed the top of Shi Lingguang's hair.

Shi Lingguang looked at the envious and jealous eyes cast on him by a group of people in the yard, and was satisfied. He sat down and gave Zuo Yao a spoonful of hibiscus stewed eggs: "Master, you eat."

Zuo Yao looked at his well-behaved and sensible little apprentice dotingly: "I don't want to eat for the teacher, you can eat."

Yuan Xuan gulped down his saliva, and shouted in his heart: If you don't want to eat, I'll eat it, woo woo woo, it smells really good, I've never smelled such a delicious food.Could it be said that this cooking skill will continue to improve with the monk's level?

When the group of monks who had made an appointment with Ali arrived, they saw such a scene.

In the yard, a white-clothed sword fairy was taking care of a beautiful child who looked like Yuxue and was wearing a gorgeous golden-red down hat on his head.A tall man with red hair and red eyes was squatting under a nearby tree, bored... poking ants with a branch?

There was also a young monk staring at the food on the table without blinking, with a suspicious transparent liquid even dripping from the corner of his mouth.

A Li was sitting in the corner farthest from this group of people with his knees hugged, and the expression on his face was also indescribably complicated.

"Ali, what's the situation?" the head monk looked at Ali suspiciously and asked.

"Hurry up!" Ali's complexion changed, and he was about to open his mouth to remind those people, but found that he opened his mouth but couldn't make any sound at all.

Those people also sensed something was wrong, but they didn't retreat, but turned to look at Zuo Yao who was sitting on the stool.

For some reason, anyway, their first instinct told them that Zuo Yao was the core of this group of grotesque people.

They couldn't see through the depth of Zuo Yao's strength, so there were only two possibilities, either Zuo Yao was an ordinary person with no cultivation, or his cultivation was above everyone else.Judging from the current situation, it is likely to be the latter.

"Senior, how many people did Ali offend?" The head monk looked at Zuo Yao tentatively.

Zuo Yao served Shi Lingguang a bowl of soup without raising his head, put it in front of him and told him to finish the soup, then turned to look at the monks: "You gave her the magic lock pill?"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of those monks all changed.

The head monk's eyes quickly fell on the teapot on the wooden table. He walked over quickly, opened the lid of the pot, took a look, and suddenly turned back to A Li: "A Li, what's going on? We will lock the spirit for you. Dan is for you to protect yourself, do these people have any evil intentions against you?"

Zuo Yao raised his eyebrows slightly, if it wasn't for the monk's great acting skills, then there was something else hidden.

Ali suddenly found that she could make a sound again. She grabbed her throat and coughed a few times before she said weakly: "No, but they...they have a lot of spirit stones on them, and you will definitely need them."

"So, you made up the story just now?" Yuan Xuan frowned and looked at Ali, "You deliberately made up that story to paralyze us because you wanted to grab the senior's spirit stone out of greed?"

Seeing that the matter was brought to light, A Li could only raise his heart and stare at Zuo Yao: "That's right, I was the one who tricked you into drinking it with the Locking Spirit Pill, so that all the spirit stones on your body could be taken away." Snatch it away. One person does the work and the other person is responsible, if you want to kill or cut me, just come at me."

"Which sect and sect do you guys belong to?" Zuo Yao ignored Ali, and turned to ask the three monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Those few monks were also bachelors, and seeing that Zuo Yao's cultivation base was obviously superior to them, they frankly explained their origins: "We are casual cultivators, and we worked for His Royal Highness Shi Ling In front of the tent of the Restoration Army of Light."

"Pfft~" Shi Lingguang sprayed the soup all over the table.
