During dinner time, the inn was bustling with people. Some were eating, drinking, and playing finger-guessing games. Some were talking about the stories of the pugilistic world. Some were talking about which monsters had been taken away by the exorcists.
"Master, Master, over here, over here!" Ye Xuan had just walked out of the backyard when he saw Chen Xuanzang loudly calling out to him at a table near the door on the first floor.
Looking at the noisy environment on the first floor, Ye Xuan frowned. However, he didn't show it and walked towards Chen Xuanzang.
"I'm sorry, Master. The waiter said that there were too many people today and there were no seats on the second floor. I could only find this table." Chen Xuanzang said in annoyance when he saw Ye Xuan's expression.
"It's okay, it's just a meal. Your master isn't some rich young master. I don't have so many rules. Come, sit!" Ye Xuan shook his head. He didn't blame Chen Xuanzang. He just didn't like the noisy environment on the first floor. It wasn't that he couldn't sit here. In the past, he couldn't even afford to eat at food stalls. Setting up stalls was a common thing.
"Yes, thank you, Master!" Seeing that Ye Xuan didn't blame him, Chen Xuanzang heaved a sigh of relief. After thanking him, he carefully sat down.
After sitting down, Ye Xuan looked around and casually asked, "Have you ordered food?"
"Yes, Master. I ordered a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup, a rosin white-bone duck, a steamed fish, a …"
"Alright, Xuanzang, you don't need to say anymore. I'm not a picky eater. Also, you don't need to be so restrained in front of me. Just be casual." Ye Xuan interrupted Chen Xuanzang when he heard Chen Xuanzang was going to tell him more recipes. He waved his hand at him. Chen Xuanzang had not met the incarnation of the Tathagata Buddha yet. Why was he already so talkative? Was it natural?
"How can I do that? Master, as the saying goes, a teacher for a day, a father for life! How can this disciple be casual in front of you, Master? You are the elder, and this disciple is the junior. In front of you, this disciple should be restrained. This is the only way to show my respect and love for you … "
"Alright, alright. Xuanzang, don't say anymore. You can do whatever you want in the future, but don't say too much in front of Master. Otherwise, Master might expel you. Do you understand? "Ye Xuan interrupted Chen Xuanzang when he saw that he was about to start nagging again.
"Yes, Master!" Hearing that Ye Xuan was going to expel him, Chen Xuanzang obediently shut his mouth.
"Ai, Little Brother, I can see that your bones are extraordinary. You are a natural-born Exorcist. Since your master wants to expel you, why don't you take me as your master?" Ye Xuan said. A voice suddenly came from outside the door. Ye Xuan and Chen Xuanzang were struck dumb. They turned around and saw a fat monk with a big head and big ears. He looked kind when he smiled. However, he was wearing a patched Baijia Clothes and a wig as messy as a bird's nest on his head. He walked in from outside with a smile on his face. Ye Xuan and Chen Xuanzang were stunned.
Ye Xuan's pupils shrank at the sight of the fat monk who had suddenly shown up. An incarnation of the Tathagata Buddha?
"Hey. Stinky monk, if you want to eat, scram outside. Don't come in and disturb our business. " Before Ye Xuan and Chen Xuanzang could say anything, the waiter in the inn saw the sloppy appearance of the fat monk. He thought that the fat monk had come in to beg for alms. He walked over with a look of disgust and wanted to drive him out.
Seeing the waiter trying to drive the fat monk away with a disgusted look on his face, Ye Xuan really felt sorry for him. If the fat monk gave him a slap, he really wondered whether he would be smashed into a pile of minced meat.
The ignorant were truly fearless!
"Wait. Wait, don't push me away. I'm not here to beg for alms. I'm here to look for someone. I'm looking for someone! " Of course, the fat monk did not slap the waiter as Ye Xuan had expected. Instead, he said to the waiter with an ingratiating smile on his face, acting like a real ordinary fat monk.
"Looking for someone? Look for who? Monk, I'm telling you, don't play tricks with me. Do you believe that I won't beat you up? Hurry up and scram. Otherwise, I won't give you any leftovers. "The waiter looked at the fat monk and said arrogantly.
Hearing the waiter's words, Ye Xuan almost gave the waiter a thumbs up. I'll give you full marks for this pretentious act!
In the entire Three Realms and Six Daos, this waiter was probably the most awesome. Even the Three Pure Ones didn't say such words to Buddha. Do you believe that I won't beat you up?
"No, waiter. I'm really looking for someone. There, it's them. I'm looking for them!" The fat monk pointed at Ye Xuan and Chen Xuanzang's table and said to the waiter with a flattering smile.
The waiter looked at Ye Xuan and Chen Xuanzang's table and said with a flattering smile, "Sir, he said that he's here to look for the two of you. Do you think …"
Seeing the fat monk pointing at their table, Chen Xuanzang was stunned. He turned to look at Ye Xuan and asked softly, "Master, do you know him?"
Ye Xuan looked at the smiling fat monk and shook his head.
"Master, this master looks quite pitiful. I …" Chen Xuanzang looked at Ye Xuan hesitantly.
Seeing Chen Xuanzang's expression, Ye Xuan said, "What do you want?"
"Master … How about I buy a few steamed buns for him?" Chen Xuanzang looked at Ye Xuan and asked carefully.
"No need. Let him come over!" Ye Xuan nodded lightly.
Ye Xuan had also thought it through. If it was a blessing, it wouldn't be a disaster. If it was a disaster, it couldn't be avoided. Moreover, from the fat monk's attitude towards the waiter, it could be seen that he wasn't an unreasonable person. His mentality wasn't something an ordinary person could compare to.
Ye Xuan asked himself if the waiter had dared to treat him like this just now. Although he wouldn't have made a move on him, he would have thrown a piece of silver over so that the waiter wouldn't dare to look down on him. He believed that a piece of silver was a piece of cake for this fat monk who looked like the incarnation of Buddha.
However, from the way he treated the waiter, he was just an ordinary and thick-skinned fat monk. His temperament could be seen from this.
"Hehe, see? I told you that I'm here to look for someone." When the fat monk saw Ye Xuan nodding his head, he walked over to their table with a smile and sat down casually. He looked at Ye Xuan and nodded. "You're a good young man. You know what to do."
"Thank you for the compliment, Master!" Ye Xuan smiled faintly in response to the fat monk's friendly manner.
The fat monk ignored Ye Xuan. Instead, he turned to Chen Xuanzang and said, "How about it, young man? Your master said that he's going to expel you. Why don't you take me as your master?"
