On the second day, when Chao Su woke up, Xiao Xuelan had already dressed and washed. After waking up, he looked at the ambiguous red marks all over his body in astonishment, and held his forehead with a gloomy face.
He had no memory of what happened last night, but he could feel something was wrong from his physical reaction, which made him vaguely guess what was going on.
It was Xiao Xuelan who took advantage of the danger and put him to sleep. As for how to sleep, he had no experience in this field, so he couldn't imagine, but it was probably like what he did to him the night before.
This damn body that pours three cups!It doesn't match their powerful image of the demon body at all!
But things had already happened, and Chao Su didn't allow herself to question Xiao Xuelan why she took advantage of her like a twitchy woman, so she could only put on her clothes silently, followed Xiao Xuelan out of the room and down the stairs.
The proprietress saw the two coming down at the same time, one behind the other, with a smile on her face, and she greeted Xiao Erduan graciously to come to the table early.
Although this inn is located in a remote location, the cooks in the shop are very skilled. The breakfast served is full-boiled japonica rice porridge with rotten rice grains, a plate of fragrant, soft, sweet and glutinous red date cake, and a cage with thin skin and large fillings. There is also a plate of shredded chicken mixed with scallion oil, and a plate of diced cucumbers pickled in summer. The dishes are simple and refreshing, and it is tempting to eat.
Xiao Xuelan seemed to be in a good mood and had a good appetite. She drank a bowl of porridge, ate a piece of jujube cake, and a small steamed bun before stopping her chopsticks. Chao Su on the opposite side was different, with thoughts written on her face, and she only drank intermittently. A few mouthfuls of porridge, obviously poor appetite.
After Xiao Xuelan finished eating, she looked at Chao Su's gloomy face since she woke up, and laughed secretly in her heart, knowing that Chao Su must have thought that she was being repressed, so she looked calm and asked with concern: "The breakfast here tastes good, look at you Don't you like the look?"
Standing at the counter pretending to flip through the ledger, the proprietress, who had been watching their every move, immediately came out of the counter upon hearing this, shaking her handkerchief, and said bluntly: "Is it not to the taste of the guest officer earlier? It doesn't matter, think Let me bring up what to eat, the cook hired here by the slave family, the ancestor was the imperial cook who cooked for the emperor, as long as you can think of it, he won’t do it without him, you two, don’t be too polite!”
Xiao Xuelan smiled kindly, and said: "Thank you, I am very satisfied with the taste of these meals and snacks. It may be that my junior brother lost his appetite because of the rush. There are so many left, it is a pity to waste them. I also ask the boss to find Xiao Er to send them to me." Lou, use it for the person we brought over last night."
"So that's it, it's fine if you don't like it." The proprietress turned around and beckoned Xiao Er to come over, and told him to send the rest of the meal upstairs to the guest room where the monks of the Acacia Sect were imprisoned. She seemed to think of something again, hesitated, and asked Xiao Xuelan, "My lord, yesterday I saw that you had set up some kind of spell outside the door, can Xiao Er get in?"
Xiao Xuelan said: "It doesn't matter, as long as you shout 'Open Sesame' at the door, you can go in. The man's hands and feet are tied up, and he has to ask Xiaoer to feed him."
Both the proprietress and Xiao Er were taken aback, how could this "sesame" open the door, could it be their lingo for cultivators?I didn't understand, and I didn't think about it carefully. Although these two sons are young, they are full of extraordinary bearing. They must be from famous families. How can ordinary people like them understand their words and deeds.
The proprietress instructed Xiaoer to tidy up all the meals on the table and follow the customer's request as soon as possible.
Chao Su only had a few sips of porridge, and on the plate at hand was a piece of red date cake that Xiao Xuelan had given him, and he hadn't had time to eat it yet.
Seeing that this piece of jujube cake was completely unused, Xiao Er picked it up, and before he put it down in mid-air, he felt two cold gazes from the opposite guest in Tsing Yi, so cold that he couldn't help but shudder. With a shiver, Xiao Er's fragile heart couldn't bear such a "death stare", and asked in fear: "Guest officer, do you still want to... eat?"
Xiao Xuelan gloated secretly at the side, and said with a serious face: "Junior brother, if you want to eat, just tell me. If you don't tell me, how will I know if you want to eat? I was afraid of wasting food so I let Xiao Er send it up. If you want to eat , I won’t let Xiao Er take it away, and leave it for you to eat slowly.”
With a dark face, Chao Su put down the chopsticks with a "click", and calmly said with lowered eyelids, "I won't eat."
Xiao Xuelan twitched the corner of her lower lip, turned her head and told Xiao Er: "Then you can take it up quickly, it will save you a long delay, and the snacks and porridge are cold."
Xiao Er got the right words, tidied it up in a hurry, and carried it upstairs, and then the proprietress came over with a pot of tea, poured a cup for each of them, and gossiped: "Where are you two young masters planning to go?" ?”
Xiao Xuelan took the teacup, thanked her, and replied, "Han Yue."
The Hanyue Sword Sect is also well-known in the world, the proprietress has naturally heard of it, she immediately put away her teasing expression, looked at the two of them again with respect, and said: "It turns out that the two are the Taoist priests of Hanyue, I have disrespected you." The slave family heard that Hanyue's Taoist priests are all extraordinary talents, can I ask you two to do me a favor?"
Xiao Xuelan didn't immediately agree, she put down her glass and asked, "What's the matter?"
The proprietress opened a bench and sat down at the table, sighed, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said in a mournful voice: "The Taoist priest doesn't know, although the location of the shop is remote, it is between Liangcheng and Liangcheng." At the junction of Yecheng. Liangcheng and Yecheng each have a great clan of Immortal Clan, and they have lived in peace for hundreds of years, but just recently, the two families became enmity because of one incident..."
The proprietress babbled about her sufferings, and Xiao Xuelan generally understood what was going on.
Liangcheng and Yecheng are respectively the domains of the Immortal Liang family and the Ye family. The two Patriarchs of Liang and Ye used to have a good personal relationship. During the wedding, Miss Ye eloped with her lover, which slapped the Liang family resoundingly, and made Mr. Liang a joke between Liang and Ye.
The Liang family also had a young son who was born to be loved by all kinds of people. He was a little king of Hades that no one dared to offend. Seeing his brother being humiliated, he went out of the city in person. caught back.
The people from the Ye family rushed to Liang's house immediately after receiving the letter, but when the people from the Ye family arrived at Liang's mansion, what they saw were two dead bodies on the ground that had been completely cooled.
It turned out that Young Master Liang captured him and tied him to the Liang family's ancestral hall. First, he killed Miss Ye's lover with a sword, and then said to Miss Ye: "Since you have entered into a marriage contract with my elder brother, you are born to belong to my Liang family." Man, death is the ghost of my Liang family, but you don't abide by women's morality, which makes my Liang family ashamed in the fairy gate. My Liang family will never tolerate a shameless woman like you!
After finishing speaking, he even stabbed Miss Ye to death with a sword!
Young Master Liang is so domineering, Miss Ye is actually not a member of the Liang family, but she was killed by him like this, so arrogant and unreasonable, how could the Ye family let it go.
Ms. Ye also has a younger brother who is a direct relative. Their biological mother died young. Mr. Ye was raised by Ms. Ye since he was a child. Seeing that his eldest sister was convicted and killed by the Liang family, he wished he could kill the murderer to avenge his sister.But the guards around Young Master Liang are so skilled that it is not easy to kill him.
Yecheng is prosperous in business and trade, and the daily necessities such as salt rice, tea, silk and satin used by the people of Liangcheng have to be purchased from Yecheng. Mr. Ye could not take revenge on Mr. Liang, so he ordered to cut off the trade between the two cities. From then on, Mr. Ye The caravans in Yecheng do not pass through Liangcheng, and Yecheng's grain, oil, rice and noodles are not sold to Liangcheng.
You have Zhang Liangji, I have a wall ladder, the Ye family cut off the supply of daily necessities in Liangcheng, and the Liang family ordered to cut off the water source from Liangcheng to Yecheng the next day. Since then, the people of Yecheng have to use water if they want water Go twenty or thirty li and detour to get water from other places.
This was originally a dispute between two families, but it affected the lives of innocent people. The people in Yecheng were fine. In the days of Yan, they dragged their families to Yecheng to join relatives one after another, and left Liangcheng.
After the Liang family found out, it was of course impossible to let the population loss in the city go unnoticed, so they immediately ordered the city gates to be closed, and only people were allowed to enter and no one was allowed to leave.Young Master Liang often took people to inspect the junction of Liang and Yecheng. Once he found that some people had absconded privately, he would arrest them and beat them to the public, so that the people of Liangcheng did not dare to leave again.
After Xiao Xuelan finished listening, she was silent for a moment, and said, "So what does the proprietress want us to do?"
The proprietress sighed and said, "If I want to say to the slave family, both of these two families are at fault, the Ye family's fault is that they are not strict in teaching their daughters, and the Liang family's fault is that they indulge their sons in committing murders, but the common people are innocent, and they really shouldn't be involved in the personal enmity between the two families. The slave family thought, since the two masters of Hanyue, can they go to the Liang and Ye families to persuade the people of the two cities to make peace and resolve the conflicts between the two families, which can be regarded as benefiting the people of the two cities, a meritorious deed!"
"Ding", the dry voice of the system suddenly sounded in Xiao Xuelan's mind: [Congratulations to the host for successfully triggering the main plot, "Go to war! Liang and Ye's feud!", complete this task to get attribute bonus points, 50 points of charm, and prestige points 20 points, 10 points for presence. 】
Xiao Xuelan's right eyelid twitched. She originally thought that the proprietress was purely enthusiastic and gossipy, but she didn't expect to be an NPC who issued a mission. The conflict between the Yeliang family is still a mission linked to the main plot.
Xiao Xuelan clicked "Accept" in her mind, but after she clicked, she ran into another difficulty.
People say "It's hard for an upright official to decide on housework", and it's not just about housework. The Liang family killed the daughter of the Ye family. Well, everyone knew that he had a fiancée who eloped with someone else. With such a big green hat off his head, he was completely reduced to the laughing stock of the fairy sect in this life. Cultivators value face, and the Liang family couldn't let go of this matter.
The proprietress looked at Xiao Xuelan expectantly as she looked at the savior. Xiao Xuelan had no choice but to accept the pressure first, and said, "You are right, the people are innocent. I will accept this matter for the time being."
After listening to the ins and outs, Chao Su didn't express his opinion at first, but he didn't expect Xiao Xuelan to agree to such a mundane thing so easily, frowning slightly, he disapproved and said: "Aren't you rushing back to Hanyue? Why bother to go into this muddy water?" ?”
Xiao Xuelan pretended to be benevolent and worried about the world, and said righteously: "Cultivating the Tao is to strengthen oneself, and the strong need to have compassion in their hearts so as not to lose themselves in high places. Helping others is also a kind of practice."
Chao Su turned her head and gave a soft sneer, expressing her dissatisfaction, disdain, and disapproval.
The proprietress understood that Xiao Xuelan had agreed, she was overjoyed, she clapped her hands repeatedly and said, "Great, great! The Taoist priest is merciful, and the people of Liang and Ye will be grateful to you if they know about it! Today happens to be that Liang On the days when the young master came to patrol the border, every time on such a day, at noon, he would come to the slave's shop to have dinner, and he would also invite the Taoist priest to talk to the young master Liang. The Taoist priest came from Hanyue, and the Liang family must I will sell your face!"
Xiao Xuelan nodded and said "good", just at this time, Xiaoer also came down from upstairs with an empty plate, and the proprietress told him: "Quickly, quickly, find the purple bamboo shoots that I have treasured for many years, and give them to you two." The distinguished guests are here!"
"Hey, Mrs. Qiu knows that my son is coming, so she specially brought out good tea to entertain me?"
From the tone of the speaker, it can be heard that this is a young man who is flamboyant and conceited.Then I saw a handsome young man in a luxurious fur coat, holding a horsewhip, and with several attendants in black behind him, entered the inn pompously.
The proprietress lowered her head and whispered to Xiao Xuelan: "It's him." Then she raised her head and greeted her with a bright smile, "Mr. Liang, you are finally here. I have been looking forward to it for a long time, but you are not in a hurry. Alright, tea is waiting for you! Please sit down, please sit down!"
Mr. Liang came in and looked around the shop, and there were two people sitting there, Xiao Xuelan and Chao Su, pointing their horsewhips forward, and said with a "tsk", "Miss Qiu, your shop is a little deserted. For a while, I'm afraid it will affect your business, right?"
Mrs. Qiu smiled and said: "Mr. Liang, what are you talking about? The ancestors of the slave family were born and raised in Liangcheng for generations. In this troubled world, we have a stable life under the protection of the Liang family. It's just that it has been affected by this period of time. Even though the slave family is a woman, she also understands the reason for the money in the store, so at this time, Liang Cheng's interests are naturally the first priority."
Mr. Liang was obviously satisfied by Mrs. Qiu's words of flattery, his face showed color, and he praised: "You are the most sensible." After a pause, his face sank again, and he said to the followers behind him, "Unfortunately, not everyone is as sensible as Miss Qiu. There are always people who violate my bottom line for the sake of petty gains in front of me. Come, bring me here!"
The entourage got the order, and immediately dragged in a man in ragged clothes and bloodstained from the whip, and threw it on the ground like a rag. If the man was not still breathing, Miss Qiu would think he was a dead man.
Lady Qiu's face froze when she saw the people on the ground, and then she immediately recovered her composure, and pretended to be surprised: "My God, who is this? How did you get beaten up like this?"
Mr. Liang smiled coldly, and said: "I just went to patrol, and I happened to find this person sneaking out of Yecheng with a lot of goods on him. I suspect that he is a spy of Yecheng, and he brought things to lure Liang Cheng The people rebelled against the city."
"How is this possible..." Mrs. Qiu uttered rebuttals in a hurry, recovered, and immediately changed her words, "The servant said that this person only looks like a teenage child, and his body is so thin, why? It might be some kind of spy."
Mr. Liang put the whip in his hand on the table, took a sip of tea slowly from the teacup, glanced at Mrs. Qiu who was already sweating coldly, and said, "Yes or no, I will know at the first trial."
Miss Qiu looked at Xiao Xuelan and Chao Su who were sitting not far away, and smiled apologetically, "Look, my lord, there are other customers in the slave shop. If you interrogate them here, you might disturb them. The shop is a small business, so please understand, my lord, that it is not easy for a weak woman from my family to make a living."
Mr. Liang waved his hand and said: "Hey, it's okay. I'm such a rude person, I won't let this kid's blood stain your place, come and bring my treasure."
The entourage presented a small box to Mr. Liang, Mr. Liang took it, and slowly pushed open the lid of the box. Inside was covered with jade shavings. A pale yellow worm that looked like a silkworm was wriggling inside. Mr. Liang carried Showing the worms in the box to Miss Qiu, she proudly said: "Look, this baby is called 'Heart-biting Gu', and when you put it on a person, it can get in wherever there is a hole. After getting in, It will drill down the meridians to the heart of the person, releasing toxins, causing heart-pounding pain. It only takes a quarter of an hour, and this person will definitely confess!"
The man lying on the ground was already dying, and when he heard Mr. Liang's words, he fainted from fright, while Mrs. Qiu was also covered with cold sweat, her feet went limp, and she fell down on the bench behind her.
Mr. Liang deliberately ignored Mrs. Qiu's abnormal behavior, raised his voice and ordered his followers: "Come on, put the heart-biting Gu on this kid, I want to see who has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dares to do it under my nose!" What a mess."
"No!" Miss Qiu clutched her chest and couldn't help but stop her.
Mr. Liang said coldly: "No? You plead for him, do you know this person?"
Miss Qiu tightened the handkerchief in her hand, her heart was full of despair, she mourned: "I don't know him, but seeing him so pitiful, I can't bear it for a while, please be kind and forgive him."
Mr. Liang was obviously not satisfied with the answer, and glared at the attendant, "Why are you still standing there? Put it up!"
The entourage was ordered to gently pick up the Heart-Eating Gu with bamboo tweezers, and was about to throw it on the person, but was suddenly hit by a chopstick shot from nowhere, and with a shake of the hand, the Heart-Eating Gu fell on the on the ground.
"Who dares to make plots!"
Xiao Xuelan still sat with her back to those people, motionless, and said leisurely: "Young Master Liang, I advise you to be kind."
The author has something to say: Today is very thick and long, rounding up is double change!
He had no memory of what happened last night, but he could feel something was wrong from his physical reaction, which made him vaguely guess what was going on.
It was Xiao Xuelan who took advantage of the danger and put him to sleep. As for how to sleep, he had no experience in this field, so he couldn't imagine, but it was probably like what he did to him the night before.
This damn body that pours three cups!It doesn't match their powerful image of the demon body at all!
But things had already happened, and Chao Su didn't allow herself to question Xiao Xuelan why she took advantage of her like a twitchy woman, so she could only put on her clothes silently, followed Xiao Xuelan out of the room and down the stairs.
The proprietress saw the two coming down at the same time, one behind the other, with a smile on her face, and she greeted Xiao Erduan graciously to come to the table early.
Although this inn is located in a remote location, the cooks in the shop are very skilled. The breakfast served is full-boiled japonica rice porridge with rotten rice grains, a plate of fragrant, soft, sweet and glutinous red date cake, and a cage with thin skin and large fillings. There is also a plate of shredded chicken mixed with scallion oil, and a plate of diced cucumbers pickled in summer. The dishes are simple and refreshing, and it is tempting to eat.

After Xiao Xuelan finished eating, she looked at Chao Su's gloomy face since she woke up, and laughed secretly in her heart, knowing that Chao Su must have thought that she was being repressed, so she looked calm and asked with concern: "The breakfast here tastes good, look at you Don't you like the look?"
Standing at the counter pretending to flip through the ledger, the proprietress, who had been watching their every move, immediately came out of the counter upon hearing this, shaking her handkerchief, and said bluntly: "Is it not to the taste of the guest officer earlier?

"So that's it, it's fine if you don't like it." The proprietress turned around and beckoned Xiao Er to come over, and told him to send the rest of the meal upstairs to the guest room where the monks of the Acacia Sect were imprisoned. She seemed to think of something again, hesitated, and asked Xiao Xuelan, "My lord, yesterday I saw that you had set up some kind of spell outside the door, can Xiao Er get in?"
Xiao Xuelan said: "It doesn't matter, as long as you shout 'Open Sesame' at the door, you can go in. The man's hands and feet are tied up, and he has to ask Xiaoer to feed him."
Both the proprietress and Xiao Er were taken aback, how could this "sesame" open the door, could it be their lingo for cultivators?I didn't understand, and I didn't think about it carefully. Although these two sons are young, they are full of extraordinary bearing. They must be from famous families. How can ordinary people like them understand their words and deeds.

With a dark face, Chao Su put down the chopsticks with a "click", and calmly said with lowered eyelids, "I won't eat."
Xiao Xuelan twitched the corner of her lower lip, turned her head and told Xiao Er: "Then you can take it up quickly, it will save you a long delay, and the snacks and porridge are cold."
Xiao Er got the right words, tidied it up in a hurry, and carried it upstairs, and then the proprietress came over with a pot of tea, poured a cup for each of them, and gossiped: "Where are you two young masters planning to go?" ?”
Xiao Xuelan took the teacup, thanked her, and replied, "Han Yue."
The Hanyue Sword Sect is also well-known in the world, the proprietress has naturally heard of it, she immediately put away her teasing expression, looked at the two of them again with respect, and said: "It turns out that the two are the Taoist priests of Hanyue, I have disrespected you."

Xiao Xuelan's right eyelid twitched. She originally thought that the proprietress was purely enthusiastic and gossipy, but she didn't expect to be an NPC who issued a mission. The conflict between the Yeliang family is still a mission linked to the main plot.
Xiao Xuelan clicked "Accept" in her mind, but after she clicked, she ran into another difficulty.
People say "It's hard for an upright official to decide on housework", and it's not just about housework. The Liang family killed the daughter of the Ye family.

Xiao Xuelan nodded and said "good", just at this time, Xiaoer also came down from upstairs with an empty plate, and the proprietress told him: "Quickly, quickly, find the purple bamboo shoots that I have treasured for many years, and give them to you two." The distinguished guests are here!"
"Hey, Mrs. Qiu knows that my son is coming, so she specially brought out good tea to entertain me?"
From the tone of the speaker, it can be heard that this is a young man who is flamboyant and conceited.Then I saw a handsome young man in a luxurious fur coat, holding a horsewhip, and with several attendants in black behind him, entered the inn pompously.
The proprietress lowered her head and whispered to Xiao Xuelan: "It's him." Then she raised her head and greeted her with a bright smile, "Mr. Liang, you are finally here. I have been looking forward to it for a long time, but you are not in a hurry. Alright, tea is waiting for you! Please sit down, please sit down!"
Mr. Liang came in and looked around the shop, and there were two people sitting there, Xiao Xuelan and Chao Su, pointing their horsewhips forward, and said with a "tsk", "Miss Qiu, your shop is a little deserted. For a while, I'm afraid it will affect your business, right?"
Mrs. Qiu smiled and said: "Mr. Liang, what are you talking about? The ancestors of the slave family were born and raised in Liangcheng for generations. In this troubled world, we have a stable life under the protection of the Liang family. It's just that it has been affected by this period of time. Even though the slave family is a woman, she also understands the reason for the money in the store, so at this time, Liang Cheng's interests are naturally the first priority."
Mr. Liang was obviously satisfied by Mrs. Qiu's words of flattery, his face showed color, and he praised: "You are the most sensible." After a pause, his face sank again, and he said to the followers behind him, "Unfortunately, not everyone is as sensible as Miss Qiu. There are always people who violate my bottom line for the sake of petty gains in front of me. Come, bring me here!"
The entourage got the order, and immediately dragged in a man in ragged clothes and bloodstained from the whip, and threw it on the ground like a rag. If the man was not still breathing, Miss Qiu would think he was a dead man.
Lady Qiu's face froze when she saw the people on the ground, and then she immediately recovered her composure, and pretended to be surprised: "My God, who is this? How did you get beaten up like this?"
Mr. Liang smiled coldly, and said: "I just went to patrol, and I happened to find this person sneaking out of Yecheng with a lot of goods on him. I suspect that he is a spy of Yecheng, and he brought things to lure Liang Cheng The people rebelled against the city."
"How is this possible..." Mrs. Qiu uttered rebuttals in a hurry, recovered, and immediately changed her words, "The servant said that this person only looks like a teenage child, and his body is so thin, why? It might be some kind of spy."
Mr. Liang put the whip in his hand on the table, took a sip of tea slowly from the teacup, glanced at Mrs. Qiu who was already sweating coldly, and said, "Yes or no, I will know at the first trial."
Miss Qiu looked at Xiao Xuelan and Chao Su who were sitting not far away, and smiled apologetically, "Look, my lord, there are other customers in the slave shop. If you interrogate them here, you might disturb them. The shop is a small business, so please understand, my lord, that it is not easy for a weak woman from my family to make a living."
Mr. Liang waved his hand and said: "Hey, it's okay. I'm such a rude person, I won't let this kid's blood stain your place, come and bring my treasure."
The entourage presented a small box to Mr. Liang, Mr. Liang took it, and slowly pushed open the lid of the box. Inside was covered with jade shavings. A pale yellow worm that looked like a silkworm was wriggling inside. Mr. Liang carried Showing the worms in the box to Miss Qiu, she proudly said: "Look, this baby is called 'Heart-biting Gu', and when you put it on a person, it can get in wherever there is a hole. After getting in, It will drill down the meridians to the heart of the person, releasing toxins, causing heart-pounding pain. It only takes a quarter of an hour, and this person will definitely confess!"
The man lying on the ground was already dying, and when he heard Mr. Liang's words, he fainted from fright, while Mrs. Qiu was also covered with cold sweat, her feet went limp, and she fell down on the bench behind her.
Mr. Liang deliberately ignored Mrs. Qiu's abnormal behavior, raised his voice and ordered his followers: "Come on, put the heart-biting Gu on this kid, I want to see who has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dares to do it under my nose!" What a mess."
"No!" Miss Qiu clutched her chest and couldn't help but stop her.
Mr. Liang said coldly: "No? You plead for him, do you know this person?"
Miss Qiu tightened the handkerchief in her hand, her heart was full of despair, she mourned: "I don't know him, but seeing him so pitiful, I can't bear it for a while, please be kind and forgive him."
Mr. Liang was obviously not satisfied with the answer, and glared at the attendant, "Why are you still standing there? Put it up!"
The entourage was ordered to gently pick up the Heart-Eating Gu with bamboo tweezers, and was about to throw it on the person, but was suddenly hit by a chopstick shot from nowhere, and with a shake of the hand, the Heart-Eating Gu fell on the on the ground.
"Who dares to make plots!"
Xiao Xuelan still sat with her back to those people, motionless, and said leisurely: "Young Master Liang, I advise you to be kind."
The author has something to say: Today is very thick and long, rounding up is double change!
