I want to cultivate swordsman

Xu Zhiqiu was the only one sitting alone in the cubicle in the county government office. Xing Butou left early because he was busy with the interrogation. Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Zhiqiu closed his eyes and focused his consciousness to sneak into the unknown.

When he came to the cabin, he saw that the amount in the bronze mirror had changed from the original Lushi to Two Hundred and Eighty.

"Hey, there are so many?"

Seeing this number, Xu Zhiqiu was a little dazed. He thought that the burning of the demon pill by the eldest lady would affect its value to the bronze mirror, but now it seems that there is no such effect. Throwing away the twenty rewarded by the little mouse spirit, it is only The Da Furen's reward is only two hundred, which is worthy of being a monster in the transformation period.

With such a large amount, he can also exchange the last pill.But he is not in a hurry now, after all he is still not at home, he decided to wait until he returns to Wutong Street to exchange for the elixir to improve his strength.

.........

It was just dawn in the sky, Xu Zhiqiu left the county office and went to an inn not far from here. The shopkeeper and the staff of the inn did not question or stop him because of the reason that Catcher Xing came with him last time.

Xu Zhiqiu walked up the stairs to the door of Chen Daofan's room, reached out and knocked, the door was quickly opened, and it was Lu Ningshuang who opened the door. The female monk of the Tianming Sect frowned when she saw that it was Xu Zhiqiu who came. He didn't ask any questions, but the look in his eyes was already asking Xu Zhiqiu why he came.

Xu Zhiqiu first greeted Chen Daofan about his injuries, and seeing that he was fine after taking the elixir, and he only needed to rest for a while to recover, so he said to Lu Ningshuang, "I found some clues in the interrogation at the county government last night, so I want to invite the girl can go together."

If the lady's cousin is also a monster, then he is also a monster that can transform into a monster. Such an enemy is not something that Xu Zhiqiu can deal with, so he wants to invite Lu Ningshuang to go with him, so that even if there is danger, he will not be helpless Method.

Xu Zhiqiu told Lu Ningshuang all the information that Master Hu had learned. The latter glanced at Chen Daofan who was still in a coma due to his injuries, and agreed without much hesitation. Obviously, he still had a grudge against the eldest lady, and even had a grudge against the lady. My cousin also hated it.

Lu Ningshuang called the clerk of the inn, told him a few words, let the clerk look at this guest room, and no one is allowed to enter without her permission. The clerk had already received an order from Xing Butou, so naturally he dared not violate this She was a woman of great background, so she quickly nodded and agreed.

Only then did Lu Ningshuang feel relieved to leave with Xu Zhiqiu.

The location of Qinghe Street is not far from Zuichun Tower. Xu Zhiqiu seldom goes there, so he is not familiar with the surrounding road conditions. Fortunately, it is clear now that there are many vendors who have started to set up stalls on the roadside. He asked for a little , you can know the exact route.

After inquiring all the way, Xu Zhiqiu and Lu Ningshuang arrived near Qinghe Street.

There are several deep alleys around here, but the only one with wine shop curtains is the one on the east side with old trees at the street corner. Xu Zhiqiu didn't hesitate at the moment, and walked towards the wine shop in the middle of the deep alley.

There is a saying that goes well, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys.

This sentence is well reflected here. The distance of this deep alley is not short, and the location of the wine shop is also in the middle, but as long as you enter the alley, you can smell a strong aroma of wine. It seems that this The wine shop's brewing skills are good, and the business should not be bad.

Xu Zhiqiu and Lu Ningshuang smelled the smell of wine and came to the door of the wine shop. There was no other sign in the whole wine shop except for a curtain. The wooden door was a bit worn out, and through the gaps between the boards, you could see a little of what was going on inside. It's early in the morning, and I can still hear clanking sounds coming from the backyard of the liquor store, probably beating something with a hammer.

Xu Zhiqiu didn't knock on the door either, just raised his palm and pushed it forward, and the door of the wine shop opened.The two walked in side by side. The door was a built-up room with tables, chairs and wine tanks. There were aisles and doors and windows leading to the backyard near the wall.

If you only look at these layouts, it is an ordinary wine shop with little money.

It's hard to think of going here with monsters.

Xu Zhiqiu glanced around. At this time, Lu Ningshuang directly took out the monster hunting compass. The orb was always warm yellow and showed no signs of turning red. This meant that there were no monsters nearby, which made both of them frown. Could it be that today is going to fail, and the cousin who is suspected of being a monster has not come here?

Xu Zhiqiu was about to go to the backyard to have a look, when the curtain of the aisle was suddenly lifted, and a hunchbacked old man holding a wine jar came out. This old man looked to be in his eighties and was as skinny as skinny.

The old man was not surprised to see Xu Zhiqiu and Lu Ningshuang, but said: "Today's wine is not ready yet, the two guests should come back later."

Hearing this, Lu Ningshuang didn't speak, Xu Zhiqiu took advantage of the situation and said, "It doesn't matter, the leftovers from yesterday are fine."

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhiqiu sat down on the nearby chair, and Lu Ningshuang followed suit.

The hunchbacked old man did not answer immediately. He put the wine jar in his arms on the shelf, and while arranging the position of the wine jar with his thin palm, he turned his back to the two and said, "If you don't dislike it objectively, then yesterday's There is still a lot of wine left, you two wait a moment."

Then, the hunchbacked old man walked to the edge of the shelf again, took out two bowls of wine from another wine tank with a spoon, placed them in front of Xu Zhiqiu's table and said, "I can only drink some wine. There are no dishes to go with the wine now. Then The lady who cooks is still asleep in the house."

Xu Zhiqiu nodded, indicating that he didn't need a side dish, then picked up the wine bowl and smelled it like a drinker, but he didn't drink it, and asked as if chatting: "Boss, the aroma in your wine is I can smell it from across the alley, why haven’t I heard of it before, if I knew there was such a good place, the money I earned would not be spent elsewhere.”

The hunchbacked old man turned around and said with a smile: "This small shop has only been open for a short time. It's normal for the young master not to know. On weekdays, only the neighbors nearby will come to drink two or three liang of drinks, and those far away will rarely come. gone."

After finishing speaking, the old man went back to the backyard and continued to work, not caring at all that there were only Xu Zhiqiu and two in the room. After a while, when the old man came out with another wine tank, Xu Zhiqiu said with a smile: "The old shopkeeper didn't hire a man here either. ? Are you not afraid that the two of us will leave without paying after drinking?"

"Let's go." The old man said indifferently: "My small shop can't afford to take care of it, and the drinks are not worth much, as long as the guests drink to their satisfaction, it's just If something like that really happens, my wife can't help but curse a few words to relieve her anger, and nothing else will happen."

Xu Zhiqiu didn't say any more.

After a while, other customers came in one after another from the wine shop. The business was really good. Many people came to drink early in the morning. Xu Zhiqiu and Lu Ningshuang sat at their original positions, and the two bowls of wine on the table were still full .
