C755 Old Drunkard
C755 Old Drunkard
Qin Feng and the rest also found a quiet inn. They ordered some food and wine in the hall of the basement. They prepared to taste it before heading to rest.
Presently, there were less than twenty of them left. However, there were still quite a number of people in this inn, which was not very large, and it occupied nearly half of the seats.
Although Qin Feng was now a prince of a country, he was extremely low-profile. Moreover, he liked peace and quiet, which was why he chose this place. Otherwise, with his status, he would be able to enter the City Lord Mansion directly and be treated as a distinguished guest.
This place could indeed be called tranquil. It was located in the southeast corner of Tong Luo City. There were very few people here, and this was only found through Qin Feng's Mind Power. However, his family's wine was extremely aromatic, sweet, and there were even some exquisite and delicious desserts. It was not bad. There was something worthy of praise.
While everyone was enjoying the fine wine and delicious food, a wave of curses sounded from the entrance of the inn.
"Old Drunkard, hurry up and leave. If it wasn't for my shopkeeper being kind... Now, I have already given you two pots of wine. Are you still not satisfied? Are you still thinking of staying here? "A man who looked like a waiter stuck his hand into the wine pot.
He frowned and cursed.
"Burp, this old man came to drink your wine because he thinks highly of you. You should be happy. How can you chase me away?" The old man said with a hiccup.
He was wearing a gray robe with patches on it. His hair was messy, and there was a lot of stubble on his chin. He looked a little unkempt.
His face was flushed, and his eyes were sleepy. He held a gourd in his right hand, which he would throw into his mouth from time to time. His legs were shaking, as if he would collapse at any moment.
He looked like he was drunk. He seemed to be Old Drunkard, and he looked like a beggar.
"You, Old Drunkard, are pretending to be good after taking advantage of me! Who doesn't know how many drinks you've cheated in our Tongluo City in the past half a month? Which inn, which tavern, and which inn have you never been to?! " The waiter said angrily.
"Burp, it's their fortune that I can drink their wine. Besides, their wine is like cat urine, not as delicious as yours. From now on, I'll stay here with you. " After saying that, Old Drunkard sat down cross-legged at the door and raised his head to drink the wine.
"You! You bastard old man! Damn Old Drunkard, get up quickly! Get out! " The waiter was furious and shouted.
However, Old Drunkard did not move. He sat there like a hoodlum and drank his wine.
"You!" The waiter was so angry that he rushed forward to push it. He wanted to push it out, but he found that he could not push it at all.
Everyone in the shop glanced at the waiter and felt annoyed by their quarrel. Wu Wenshuang took out a gold coin and called out, "Waiter, we paid for his wine and let him stay there to drink. Don't make any more noise."
"Miss, you are really a good person, just like our manager. Thank you, beautiful miss." Hearing that, the waiter hurried over. Seeing the gold coin, his eyes lit up. He grinned and praised Wu Wen.
Shuang took it away, and then she didn't care about Old Drunkard anymore.
Luo Xiaoyu slowly got up and came to Old Drunkard's side. She put down two gold coins and said, "Grandpa, keep this well and buy yourself a new dress."
"Why give me gold coins? Why not give me two bottles of good wine?" Old Drunkard glanced at the gold coins beside him, but did not pick them up. He showed a look of disdain.
"Gold coins can buy wine. Also, you should drink less in the bar. It's not good for your health, so you can buy some clothes and food for these two gold coins. It should be enough for a few days " Luo Xiaoyu did not get angry because of the other party's words and expression. She still spoke in an amiable manner.
" Oh, this old man needs to buy wine? It is their fortune to be able to drink their wine!" Old Drunkard once again brought out the same words he had said before. He still ignored the two gold coins and continued to drink his wine.
Seeing this scene, Luo Xiaoyu was completely at her wit's end. She had never seen such a person before. However, she did not take back the gold coins and returned to the dining table.
After a while, everyone got up and went back to their rooms to rest. Before they left, they realized that Old Drunkard was actually sleeping there. He was lying there in a large shape. His nose was bubbling as he snored. He held the wine gourd in his hand, but he still did not pick up the gold coins next to him.
Luo Xiaoyu shook her head and sighed, and did not care anymore.
Qin Feng looked at Old Drunkard and felt that he had seen him somewhere before. He suddenly remembered that during Fa Mingyu's wedding, there was an Old Drunkard who was freeloading and drinking. It seemed to be this person.
When he thought of this, Qin Feng revealed a trace of suspicion. He carefully sized the other person up and down. Finally, he stared at the gourd in Old Drunkard's hand. He felt that it looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
That Old Drunkard gave him a mysterious feeling, but he did not have the slightest clue. In the end, he still went upstairs with Wu Wenshuang and the others to rest.
The night passed without a word.
The next morning, Qin Feng and the others went downstairs together. However, they discovered that Old Drunkard was still staying in the inn and drinking wine.
"Good morning, grandpa." Luo Xiaoyu gently said to Old Drunkard. Although he was a little strange, he looked quite pitiful and aroused Luo Xiaoyu's sympathy.
Wu Wenshuang and Wang Luyao also did the same. They displayed the gentle side of a woman and paid the waiter two gold coins. He asked Old Drunkard to bring some fine wine and delicious food for Old Drunkard to eat at the table.
As for them, they did not eat anymore and directly left the inn.
"Old Drunkard, you are really lucky to have met a few kind fairies who came to the mortal world to buy you wine. But this is not a place you can stay. Take the wine and leave. Don't stay here and hinder our business."
"I will naturally leave, but not now. I will stay here for a few days, and it will be a great honor for all of you. You should thank me."
"Humph! Old Drunkard, your skin is thicker than a city wall!"
...
Qin Feng withdrew his Mind Power and stopped listening to their conversation. Although he was very curious about Old Drunkard, he had no idea what was going on. He didn't hear anything valuable from their conversation, so he didn't want to think too much about it.
After the group left Tongluo City, they headed east and soon arrived at the border. As this place was adjacent to Qin Country, the Lei Kesi was a vassal state of Qin Country. Hence, they easily passed through without any defenses.
After that, they headed south. They were still quite a distance away from the Muxuan City.
They bought several horse carriages. The Spiritual Beast that was originally pulling the carriage were all Ink Scaly Beasts. However, they were replaced by Qin Feng, who ordered his subordinates, the Beast Controlling Red Flame Devil Wolf, to pull the carriage.
The group of Devil Wolves were all high grade Vicious Beast. Their speed was faster and their endurance was better. Moreover, they possessed great power and an extremely imposing manner. They attracted quite a number of gazes along the way.
However, Qin Feng and the others did not stop for long. They continued on their way, while they meditated and cultivated in the carriage. They did not waste any time.
Five days later, they arrived at the territory that originally belonged to the Muya Country. The west was not far from the Blackwind Ridge, and they would arrive at the Muxuan City in a few days' journey to the southeast.
