C198 inquiring (1/2)
Looking at the bag of gold, Chang Jing could not laugh.
”To tell you the truth, shopkeeper, we did not come out for free this time,” He returned the bag to the werewolf storekeeper and said seriously, ”The four of us are only here to inquire about one thing — — Awakening Bell s. Have you heard of the storekeeper's name?”
The Bear Man storekeeper heard that he misunderstood once again, and thought that he was purposely saying this to conceal his identity. He then continued to fawn on him, ”Sir, don't say so. You keep the money, just treat it as making a friend …” As for the Awakening Bell, my lord, you are praising me too much — for a ignorant person like me, it is natural that I would not know about it.
”Rich villa?” The four of them looked at each other, and Chang Jing took the gold coin and laughed as she said, ”Since it's like this, we will take this money, and you as a friend, we will agree to receive it!”
”Heh heh, I'm very happy to have you say these words. Being able to make friends with a rich man in a rich man's villa is the greatest honor of my life!”
Chang Jing smiled, and after finishing her meal, she said a few more words of courtesy before putting on her bamboo hat once more and leaving the inn.
”What?” The passers-by answered with great surprise at their question. ”You don't even know where Rich Villa is. Do you know where the knife is for lunch?”
Chang Jing's scalp went numb, she thought to herself that I've only used chopsticks for lunch, but my mouth still remained as humble as before, ”I really don't know, haha, and I'm even asking where it is?”
The passerby secretly laughed at him for being a country bumpkin, and replied disdainfully, ”Well, keep going to the east, and see the biggest and most imposing red manor!”
The four of them thanked him with flushed faces and followed the direction he pointed to. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they saw a red manor.
Yin Feng stepped forward and bowed to the guards, ”Brothers, thank you for your hard work. We have specially come to pay our respects to the wealthy manor lord, please let us know.”
The guard looked at his short stature compared to the orc with contempt, and replied in a low voice, ”With just you guys? How could our Lord Manor Lord be someone that you people can meet so easily? ”
If it were any other time, Yin Feng would definitely be furious to hear these words, but this time, he clenched his teeth and endured. Because this matter was extremely important, he was definitely not willing to affect his teacher saving Holy Maiden due to his own personal reasons.
”Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive us for coming all the way here to pay our respects to the rich and powerful manor lord. Please make all the necessary arrangements.” As he said this, he took out a few gold coins from his pocket and handed them over to the leader, ”I hope that you big brothers can give me this money to drink some wine and relieve your boredom.”
The guard took the gold coins and put them into his arms. He then took out a few silver coins and gave them to the others.
Seeing that he had already accepted the money, Yin Feng was overjoyed, and waved for Chang Jing and the other two to come in, thinking that this money could really make ghosts grind and grind.
However, just as the four of them were about to step through the door, they were stopped by a guard!
”You?”
Yin Feng asked in confusion. He even purposely used the gold coin in his hands to emit clanging metal sounds in an attempt to remind them that he had a relationship with Yue Yang. However, they just didn't appreciate his gesture and didn't even look at him, as if nothing had happened.
Yin Feng was finally angered and shouted, ”You all …”
He could not finish his words because Chang Jing had already extended her hand to stop him.
”I wonder if we can go in that way?”
He placed his hand on the bamboo hat and slowly took it off, revealing a cold and arrogant face that contained a deep melancholy.
”You?” The guard at the front of the door nervously clenched his teeth, and changed his way of addressing them, saying respectfully and obsequiously, ”Please wait here, little one will immediately go and report to Master!”
After saying that, he slipped away, leaving the three students staring at Chang Jing in a daze.
Chang Jing pretended not to see it, and pretended to look at the three of them with wide eyes.
”Our Master has invited you,” Very quickly, the guard ran out and bowed respectfully like he was a part of the Aragorn, ”Please follow me, everyone …”
Under his lead, Chang Jing and the other three quickly reached their destination. However, the more she walked in, the more Chang Jing frowned, as though she had met a difficult problem.
”Master, the guests have arrived.”
”You may leave,” an arrogant and imposing voice came from inside, and it was difficult to conceal its age, ”Please come in by yourself, esteemed guests.”
Chang Jing looked at the familiar carving pattern on the door, and unconsciously took off his shoes, entering the room barefooted. The three students didn't know the name, but seeing that the teacher had done so, they could only take off their shoes and follow him in.
The owner of the door cried like a child when he saw the four pairs of bare feet.
