"Old bro, you keep saying that he's evil, but how evil is he exactly?" The young man's interest was piqued.
"You need to pay to stay in the inn, but have you heard of an inn where you have to pay to enter?"
"What? You have to pay to enter? I didn't even pay to enter the divine city! "The young man was speechless at the way the innkeeper was scamming people.
"He scammed people the moment he arrived, wouldn't he scare all the customers away?"
"You want to run? Impossible. As long as you enter, you have to pay the entrance fee. If you don't pay … do you see that skinny horse in the courtyard? It can definitely cripple you with a single kick! "
"Could it be a spirit beast?"
Hearing this, the young man carefully looked into the courtyard. He saw that under a big tree in the courtyard, there was a thin horse with dark fur that looked lazy. It was lying on the ground with its four limbs facing the sky, snoring loudly. No matter how he looked at it, it was no different from a horse of the mortal world.
"Don't underestimate this skinny horse. There was a second-level immortal who was unwilling to pay the entrance fee of 50 jin of origin energy. His leg was broken by a single kick from the horse. It's said that he wouldn't be able to recover even after half a month."
Hiss!
The young man sucked in a breath of cold air. One hoof had crippled Immortal Two. That seemingly lazy and thin horse was very likely to have the strength of Immortal Three's Dao Severing King. With such a powerful holy horse guarding the house, it was no wonder that no one dared to smash this black shop.
"Not only does one have to pay an entrance fee to enter, but they also have to pay for lodging and meals. Three meals a day with white rice and a bowl of clear soup, but they have to pay 50 jin of origin energy. Don't you think that's evil?"
The middle-aged man had an envious look on his face. "As long as you enter the inn, you have to pay at least 50 jin of origin energy. This speed of earning money is something that even the holy lands would be jealous of."
"Old bro, this isn't right. Logically speaking, it's fine if one or two people were scammed. After the reputation of the inn spread, no one should be scammed anymore. But why did so many people get scammed after that?"
"It's all that skinny horse's fault. Ever since they found out about the Holy Horse's strength, many experts flocked to the inn, wanting to abduct it. Some almighty experts even stayed in the inn for more than half a year, spending tens of thousands of kilograms of Source Energy, trying to get close to the Holy Horse every day, but in the end, they all returned without success."
"Now that you mention it, I really want to go in and take a look." The young man rubbed his chin and said with a smile.
"Young man, don't be silly. As long as you go in, you have to pay at least 50 jin of origin energy. Even if you have a lot of origin energy, you can't be so wasteful. No matter how many experts are, they won't be able to kidnap that holy horse. You better not have any ideas about it!" The middle-aged man advised......
"Old bro, don't worry. I still have 100 or 200 jin of origin energy. I'm not very interested in that horse. I mainly want to go in and see what kind of person the owner of the inn is!"
Watching the young man in white walk towards the gate of the courtyard, the middle-aged man couldn't help but shake his head. "Another young man who wants to have a fortuitous encounter and reach the sky in a single bound. Nowadays, there aren't so many experts who are willing to give you fortuitous encounters!"
.....
The courtyard was not big, only a few hundred square meters. This little area was indeed inconspicuous in the Divine City.
Pushing open the crumbling old gate, the young man in white walked in. What greeted his eyes was the skinny white horse lying lazily under the peach tree.
Hearing someone come in, the skinny horse opened its eyes and glanced at the door. Then, it closed its eyes again and turned over lazily, looking as if it hadn't woken up yet.
In addition to the main house at the front of the courtyard, there were two side rooms and a woodshed. They were all made of the most common bluestone. They looked a little old and shabby, and were not at all clean and tidy as an inn should be.
Walking into the hall of the main house, what greeted his eyes were tables and chairs. This place seemed to have been set up as a lobby, specifically for entertaining guests to eat and drink. But now, it was cold and cheerless. Other than the young man himself, no other guests had come in.
"Oh, someone's here. Are you staying or having a snack?"
In the north of the lobby, there was a long table. A young man who seemed to be the boss was lying on the table taking a nap. When he heard the young man's footsteps, he raised his head with sleepy eyes and asked casually.
The young man in white carefully sized up the owner who had just woken up. The other party was wearing a black robe, and his long black hair was strangely moving in the wind. It looked a little scary as it floated in the air.
There was a trace of tiredness on his handsome face. He didn't look old, in his twenties, but he gave people a sense of vicissitudes of life. It was as if the person in front of him had been through the baptism of years, giving people a feeling of weathering.
"Big Brother, I'm here to eat. Do you have any specialty dishes here?" The young man felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a little depressing, so he swallowed his saliva and asked softly.
"Let's eat …" The young boss in a black robe nodded and then shouted towards the door.
"Wan'er, there's a guest. Come out quickly to receive the guest!"
"Damn!" The young man staggered and almost fell to the ground. He kept waving his hand and explained, "Big Brother, I'm just here to eat. I don't need any special service. You can't just deduct the fee!"
"Hehe, little brother, you have a sense of humor. Wan'er sells her skills, not her body. There's no special service!"
Unknowingly, a white-clothed young girl had appeared behind the youth. The young girl's face was pure and adorable, brimming with a vibrant smile. However, there was an unconcealable sinister aura in her chuckling voice, causing one to feel a bone-chilling coldness.
The young girl held two big bowls in her hands. One bowl of white rice, and the other bowl of clear soup. After placing the rice and clear soup on the table, she smiled and walked to the front of the young man with a stiff face and spread out her hands.
"Little Brother, the entry fee is fifty kilograms of Origin Source. The food is fifty kilograms of Origin Source. Thank you!"
The young man's neck was a little stiff as he nodded. Then, he took out two big Origin Source blocks from his sleeves and carefully placed them in the young girl's palm.
His finger accidentally touched the young girl's palm, and the young man's body suddenly shivered. A chill that came from the depths of his soul spread from his finger, causing the young man to almost fall to the ground.
"Hehe, little brother, your body is a little weak. Wan'er has a few big tonic pills here. It's cheaper. I'll sell them to you for a thousand kilograms of Origin Source. Do you want them?"
The young man shook his head and sat down without saying a word. He picked up the chopsticks and ate the rice in small mouthfuls. As for his heart, it was already in a perilous situation.
