New Times Inn

    Voice transmission through the air, of course, is not too advanced martial arts.

    The guests below broke into a cold sweat instantly, and some people even felt a little bit unable to sit still.

    Before, most of them thought it was an unseen actor who was singing, but as soon as the voice sounded, there was nothing this group of people didn't understand.

    There is probably only one person in the entire inn who can do this through the air.

    —the one who hasn't been seen since just now.

    And indeed, many people came here tonight with the thought of wanting to spy on the shopkeeper's news, and they faintly sensed the solemn atmosphere in the air.

    Although the singing in my ears is still moving, it is still more important than my own life.

    However, among the commotion, only one man was listening quietly with his eyes closed.

    This person was noticed by Li Qi at a glance.

    Speaking of which, if it was in the past, Li Qi would not have noticed these things, because he is a swordsman, and he only needs to be quick to shoot. He seldom cares about these details. .

    But since he finished taking the medicine that the shopkeeper gave him last time, Li Qi vaguely felt that the half of his meridians, which had been damaged for a long time, began to have internal energy and slowly surged again.

    He sees better now, hears better, and sometimes even a gust of wind at night can wake him up.

    As if he was keenly aware of the difference in that person at this moment, Li Qi carefully observed to avoid stunning the snake.

    This man...is not like everyone else.

    In the second when the singing upstairs ended, the guests below seemed to wake up.

    Many people let out a long sigh, and some people shivered all over. After everyone came back to their senses, they all looked up.

    It was quiet and there was no more sound.

    The strange man also sighed slightly when the voice ended.

    And just a second before he sighed, he was still sitting in his chair.

    The next second, he disappeared without a trace.

    Not even a trace was left, just like a gust of wind.

    "Dumb scholar?" It was also at this time that Li Qi's expression changed slightly.

    He realized who the man was.

    A crazy painter who likes to draw all kinds of beauties in the rivers and lakes.

    This person is eccentric and generally does not appear in front of others easily. Only beauty can attract this man.

    How could this person appear in the inn?

    Many people present hurriedly walked out after sighing deeply.

    Their footsteps seem to be running for their lives, as if they don't want to stay any longer, because they are afraid that the shopkeeper will come downstairs after a while.

    Li Qi walked over to clean up the mess.

    However, he found a flower where the scholar just disappeared.

    A fresh peony seems to have just been picked from nearby.

      a painting.

    A thought suddenly popped into Li Qi's mind.

    Does it mean that the dumb scholar wants to draw the shopkeeper's picture into his painting?

    "Dumb scholar." Li Qi didn't say much.

    But with just these few words, Chu Changzui understood everything, and his eyes gradually widened.

    After a long, long time, Chu Changzui seemed to have suffered a huge blow.

    He kept repeating "crazy, crazy" as he slowly walked out of the lobby...

    Li Qi didn't understand why Chu Changzui showed such an expression, that expression was just like he saw the new books sent by the shopkeeper a few days ago.

    But he was more concerned with something else.

    If the dumb scholar wants to do this, he will definitely appear again in the inn these days.

    Because it is well known that the dumb scholar draws very seriously, he must pay special attention to the shopkeeper's observation carefully before he starts to write.

    Although the dumb scholar has never heard of anyone who likes to kill so far, he looks like a mad and dumb painter, but his light skills are first-class, and he needs to be more careful people.

    Li Qi is prepared to take extra precautions.

    As a swordsman, he will have some unique ways for these first-class people.

    …

    The next day was a foggy day.

    Feng Qing stretched lazily in his tavern, and simply opened the door to let the mist enter the inn.

    In modern society, she would definitely not dare to do this, because she really thinks her body is too good.

    But in ancient times, Feng Qing breathed the fresh air and felt that her whole body was smooth.

    Then she opened a bottle of Coke.

    A figure slowly walked over in the mist, and the shadow was very conspicuous even in the mist.

    Feng Qing was drinking Coke, and paused slightly when she saw the person who came in.

    Hua Jing?

    He is not feeling well, so did he go back early? Why are you here this early in the morning?

    Feng Qing sat up quickly, she thought Hua Jing came to apologize for yesterday's incident, which made her slightly moved.

    As expected of Hua Jing, she is as gentle as her name suggests.

    Feng Qing, such a gentle person, has seen such a person in her life, making her a little embarrassed.

    Hua Chaodu did not return last night, and only returned to the inn this morning. In his arms, he still carried the mask given to him by the shopkeeper.

    Yesterday, he thought about why the shopkeeper gave him this thing for a whole night.

    The thing behind this mask is not so simple, the thing behind it is much bigger.

    Hua Chaodu also spent a full night thinking about what kind of person the shopkeeper was.

    At first, he thought that the shopkeeper was someone who was trying to mess up the whole arena like those careerists he had seen before. Later, he felt that the shopkeeper was a complete lunatic who didn’t care about the people in the arena shackles, only to be able to achieve their desired goals.

    But these thoughts, since the shopkeeper gave him this mask yesterday, seems to have all vanished.

    Why would someone with such a mask suddenly appear in an inn in this small town, willing to be an ordinary shopkeeper?

    "You..." Hua Chaodu was slightly stunned when she pushed the door into the room.

    The shopkeeper seems to have been waiting for him for a long time.

    She is drinking alone.

    She always drank heavily, as if she would never get drunk.

    Drinking alone, even though I am alone, the shopkeeper always drinks so happily.

    Hua Chaodu had a lot to say to the shopkeeper, but she was stunned when she saw her like this.

    Then he heard the shopkeeper ask, "How are you feeling now?"

    This sentence choked back everything Hua Chaodu wanted to say.

     Hearing this, he suddenly began to examine himself.

    Hua Chao is used to being hated by everyone. He feels that he has long been accustomed to walking in the dark, with those dirty things.

    However, yesterday he suddenly found himself doing the same thing as before, but received some eyes he had never received before.

      to die.

      people.

    —for example, the father-in-law of Dongchang, who always holds a high position in their mouths and looks at the people below with terrifying eyes.

    But yesterday he just copied an ordinary little rich family, even this kind of family he didn't look at before, but there was a maid who recognized his face the mask.

      never seen.

    He even felt that the gaze was particularly dazzling.

    So he ran out like he was running away, found a quiet place to meditate quietly, until he came here alone this morning.

    What are you trying to do?

    Hua Chao looked at the shopkeeper in front of her with a very complicated look.

    He has a strange feeling that he may have been seen through by the person in front of him.

    Although the shopkeeper didn't like to show his eyes, Hua Chaodu felt that she was firmly in her hands.

    This is... your original plan?

    Hua Chao wants to intervene in Jianghu and has always lacked an identity - an identity that can make him appear in front of everyone in Jianghu.

    The people of Jianghu hate and fear the imperial court, but there are turbulent winds in the rivers and lakes, in order to prevent them from causing any trouble, Hua Chaodu still tries her best to contact them.

    But now this mask is a brand new identity.

    Besides, it is an identity that Hua Dynasty never dared to think about.

    However, the series of reactions it brings are also conceivable.

    The shopkeeper is giving him a right, a right to intervene in the rivers and lakes more deeply.

    This shopkeeper... seems to have unintentionally set up a game for the entire Jianghu.

    In this early morning, no one knew that such a huge change had taken place in Jianghu, and all Jianghu people were still kept in the dark.

      people.

    A terrifying and evil sinister.

    Could it be that the shopkeeper is not afraid of what he will do after handing over this mask to him?

    Or, the shopkeeper has already determined that he will not do this?

    The truly terrifying person is the one who can play the entire river and lake with applause in silence. Hua Chaodu has only heard of it once, but this is the first time I have seen it in this life.

    Even someone like him trembled for such a method, but he heard the shopkeeper across from him calmly say, "Have you eaten yet? Sit down first."

    Her tone was calm as if nothing had happened.

    Hua Chaodu suddenly looked up at her.

    The calmness of this tone is somewhat unbelievable.

    When the shopkeeper met him before, Hua Chao always knew that this person had a kind of madness deep into his bones.

    Whether it's rushing into the palace at night, or asking the director of the East Factory to sing for her, these all sound like things that a lunatic would do.

    However, in this quiet morning, she just looked at him quietly.

     Calm like a bottomless lake.

    Maybe the shopkeeper is not crazy, maybe she is already crazy.

    "The thing you gave me last night..." Hua Chaodu finally asked after being silent for a while.

    "What?" The shopkeeper across from him interrupted him before he could finish speaking.

    The heart of Huachaodu is tight again.

    The shopkeeper looks like she really forgot what she gave him last night.

    She deliberately avoided the subject.

     Hua Chao felt her heart beating a little louder.

    Feng Qing just felt that the flowers in front of her were a little strange. She greeted the people in front of her to sit down to eat. There was also a small sugar cake that Li Qi had just made this morning on the table.

    Then she suddenly heard the person in front of her ask with slightly trembling words, "What is the thing you... hope most?"

    What?

    On a foggy morning, a beautiful woman suddenly came to her house and asked her what she wanted most.

    But Feng Qing is different.

    Because she is a middle-2 disease.

    Therefore, the expression of this middle-aged person immediately became serious at that time, and she seriously said the four words that she would always say when facing this problem since she was a child.

    "World Peace."
