Bai Yuanzhen's Strange Talk
"Where's everyone? Where's the boss? Come out, it's time for the month. Hurry up and hand over the monthly payment. "Just as the voice entered the hall, a large group of about seven or eight people squeezed through the door. The leader was a young man who was as thin as a bamboo pole. As soon as he entered the hall, he shouted loudly," Where's the boss? Hurry up, once we're done with this one, the next Hundred Brocade Hall is still waiting for us! Aiyo, not bad, your Lian Si's business is not bad? How about handing in more for this month? Capable people do more work … "
The man who spoke was as thin as a bamboo pole, but his voice was extremely rough. It was obvious that there was a hint of sharpness in his rough voice. It was unknown whether it was a habit of his, or because of some rules.
"Aiyo, isn't this Third Brother Bai?" Seeing the group of people at the door, Tang Jin could clearly feel the servant beside him tensing up. His expression instantly turned bitter, but he had no choice but to pretend to be very happy. He bent over and walked forward, saying, "But I haven't seen Third Brother Bai and the rest for a long time. How have you been? If you have time, please come visit our Lian Si more often. Our shopkeeper also misses you very much! Please don't be impatient, wait a moment. The shopkeeper just went to the kitchen, he went to the kitchen and will be here soon. Please wait a moment. "
The servant seemed to be very afraid of these people. He bowed slightly and stood beside them with a smile on his face, looking very careful.
Gangsters here to collect protection fees?
Seeing these people, Tang Jin was stunned. There were gangsters in the Immortal World?
"You, I'll speak." However, while the manservant was afraid of these people, Little Yu wasn't. Seeing the manservant standing motionlessly beside them, Little Yu was displeased. She pointed at the manservant and said, "Why don't you go to the kitchen and order food for us! We're waiting here! "
Hearing this, everyone in the hall of the inn was stunned. They looked at Tang Jin and Xiao Yu.
The servant looked at the two with a trace of embarrassment on his face. He then turned to look at the "Third Brother Bai" beside him, with a look of inquiry. When Third Brother Bai heard Xiao Yu's words, his originally arrogant face suddenly collapsed. He looked at Tang Jin and Xiao Yu with a dark gaze. He wanted to see who had eaten a bear's heart and leopard's guts to touch a tiger's butt and speak at this time.
However, after seeing Tang Jin and Xiao Yu, Third Brother Bai's dark expression suddenly froze.
"En, you can go. It's good to go take a look." Waving his hand, Third Brother Bai's expression returned to normal. After indicating for the servant to follow Xiao Yu's instructions to go to the kitchen, he paused, as if he felt that he was a little cowardly. Finding a way out for himself, he said, "Just as well, help me call your shopkeeper out. .. How long do you want us to wait here? If he doesn't come out for a lifetime, do you want us to wait for a lifetime? We haven't received the next monthly payment for Hundred Brocade Hall! Go quickly! "
"Yes, yes!"
Hearing this, although a trace of disdain flashed in the manservant's eyes for a moment, he still had a respectful and obedient look on his face. After agreeing nicely, he hurriedly ran to the back kitchen.
It was no wonder that Third Brother Bai didn't dare to offend Tang Jin and Xiao Yu. Looking at the two's clothes, he knew that they were not ordinary people. In addition, Third Brother Bai couldn't see through Tang Jin and Xiao Yu's cultivation. He didn't know their background, so how could Third Brother Bai dare to casually offend them?
If Tang Jin and Xiao Yu were really the young masters of some big family who came out to travel, even if he killed them, the power behind them wouldn't stand up for them.
Seeing a young master from a rich family who couldn't see through his cultivation, for someone like Third Brother Bai who was at the bottom of society, he would rather choose to believe that he couldn't see through the other party's cultivation than believe that the other party didn't have any cultivation. In the Immortal Realm, this kind of thing basically didn't exist. If they didn't have any cultivation, how could they be dressed so well? One look and he could tell that their status in their family wasn't low …
Tang Jin didn't know that Third Brother Bai had so many thoughts in his mind. He looked at Third Brother Bai with interest until Third Brother Bai felt a little uncomfortable. Then, he opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong? Are you gangsters here to collect protection fees? "
"Gangsters? Protection fees? "Third Brother Bai stared blankly at Tang Jin and scratched his head. He frowned and said," Which gang is this gangster from? I don't know about this gang, but we're from the Chang Hui Gang. As for the protection fees you mentioned, well, you can say that. Because we protect them, they have to pay our Chang Hui Gang a monthly fee. That's the fee for protecting them. We don't care if it's called protection fees or monthly fees. Um, I haven't asked for your name and your background. "
Because he didn't know Tang Jin's background, Third Brother Bai was quite polite to Tang Jin. He answered all of Tang Jin's questions and didn't forget to ask about Tang Jin's background.
Chang Hui Gang? What an old-fashioned name. It's really gangsters here to collect protection fees.
"I'm Tang Jin, and he's Tang Yu. They're my brothers." Tang Jin didn't put on airs in front of Third Brother Bai. He said his and Xiao Yu's names, but he paused when talking about his background. Then, he said, "We're from the Celestial Court. We recently came out to play."
Although they hadn't been to the Celestial Court, Tang Jin and Xiao Yu's ultimate goal was to go to the Celestial Court. Moreover, they were from the Tang dynasty. Secondly, they belonged to the Tang dynasty. The Tang dynasty was the Celestial Court, so they were from the Celestial Court. Therefore, Tang Jin wasn't lying to Third Brother Bai.
They were from the Celestial Court!
Hearing Tang Jin's name, Third Brother Bai's expression changed and instantly became humble. It was as if they were standing on the same mountain peak and talking. Suddenly, the mountain peak that Third Brother Bai was standing on collapsed. Third Brother Bai could only look up at Tang Jin and Xiao Yu.
"So you're from the Celestial Court. We didn't know you were from the Celestial Court. Please forgive us for offending you." Third Brother Bai cupped his hands and unconsciously bent down. He moved closer to Tang Jin and Xiao Yu. He was as humble as a servant just now and said respectfully, "I knew you two were extraordinary. I didn't expect you to be from the Celestial Court. Tsk, tsk. Did you come to Baiyuan Town to relax? "
He did not suspect that Tang Jin and Xiao Yu were pretending to be from the Celestial Court. Firstly, they did not look like they were pretending. Secondly, no one in the Celestial World dared to pretend to be "Lords" from the Celestial Court. Yes, Lords. In the eyes of these ordinary people, the people from the Celestial Court were all Lords. They were people that they could only look at but could not touch. This was why Third Brother Bai was so humble in an instant.
"En, I'm just passing by. You're called Third Brother Bai, right?" Raising his eyelids, Tang Jin changed into a comfortable position and sat on the bench. He looked at Third Brother Bai and said, "What's your Changhui Gang? You're even collecting protection fees. How are you going to protect them? If you don't pay, are you going to smash my shop? What kind of power does your Changhui Gang belong to? "
Tang Jin was very curious. How tyrannical were the underworld gangs in the Celestial World? Could they be compared to the underworld gangs in his previous life?
"What Third Brother Bai? In front of you, Young Master, where am I!" Waving his hand, Third Brother Bai was flattered and said, "Young Master, you can just call me Third Brother Bai. Otherwise, you can call me Little White or Little Third. Don't call me Third Brother Bai. That's dishonoring me."
Rubbing his hands, Third Brother Bai corrected him embarrassedly. Then, he continued, "Our Changhui Gang is not bullying them by collecting Spirit Stones from them. Those are what they should pay! If they don't pay, we won't protect them. Not just us, but the other residents of the town will smash their shops! Hehe, as for which power we belong to, Young Master is thinking too highly of us. In Young Master's eyes, how can we be considered a power? We're just a bunch of children playing house. The original intention of our Changhui Gang was to protect the residents of our town. Young Master, you might not know, but there's a forest west of our Bai Yuan Town. There's a demon living there! She has countless demons and ghosts under her command. If it weren't for our Changhui Gang guarding Bai Yuan Town, the residents of Bai Yuan Town would have suffered a calamity! As the saying goes, the Jade Emperor doesn't lack hungry soldiers. Don't you think it's not too much for us to collect a monthly fee? Oh, it's the protection fee that Young Master is talking about, right? "
Demon?
The human race in the Celestial World was powerful, so they categorized the other races as different. This was because the Wu people also had limbs and facial features. They were just a little taller, so they weren't rejected by the human race too much. Demons were different. When they reached the Golden Core stage, they could speak. When they reached the Nascent Soul stage, they could even transform into humans. How could that be? Therefore, the human race gave demons another name: Demons!
Demons, demons, monsters. In the hearts of the human race, as long as they weren't from their own race, they were all demons.
Other than demons, there was also a type of spirit monster. Spirit monsters were formed by plants and stones absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In the hearts of the human race, they were also monsters, demons, and spirits. Over time, they were confused by the human race as demons and spirits. Other than that, there were also ghosts, which were also classified as demons by the human race. Who knew what kind of demons, spirits, or ghosts Bai San was referring to?
"Demons?" Didn't Tang Jin and the rest come from the west? After thinking about it carefully, Tang Jin nodded and said, "Yes, indeed. I came from the west. When I came, there was indeed a forest in the west, but I didn't feel any fairies or anything like that."
