"Hey, don't scold me." Yu Xingchen pointed at Zhang Shaoyang. "I didn't stop you."
Zhang Shaoyang was stunned. He then remembered that when he and Lu Yuanshan were at daggers drawn, Yu Xingchen did not stop him.
"You remember now?" Yu Xingchen smiled.
"Brother Xingchen, how can you still smile at a time like this?" Zhang Shaoyang was really impressed by his best friend. No matter what happened, he was always calm and unhurried.
"If I don't smile, am I supposed to cry?" Yu Xingchen laughed. "If crying works, why do we still have morning and evening classes? We can just get our disciples and grand-disciples to cry."
"I really have to hand it to you. The house is on fire, and you're still smiling." Zhang Shaoyang mocked Yu Xingchen. "As expected of the Quanzhen Sect. Calm and indifferent. Even if Mount Tai collapses in front of you, your expression will not change."
"Of course." Yu Xingchen stroked his beard and said deliberately.
"Be careful. Don't get blown away by Mount Tai," Zhang Shaoyang said impatiently.
"Nothing good comes out of your filthy mouth." Yu Xingchen laughed. "You're so angry. Even if Mount Tai is blown away, it'll be because of you." The two of them usually bickered with each other and did not give in to each other.
"I don't have time to bicker with you. Go ahead and stroll. I'm leaving." Zhang Shaoyang said as he cast a spell. His feet left the ground and he prepared to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey …" Yu Xingchen grabbed Zhang Shaoyang's arm and forcefully dragged him back to the ground. Zhang Shaoyang was already a foot above the ground.
"You … Why did you pull me back?" Zhang Shaoyang asked Yu Xingchen angrily as he was pulled back to the ground.
"Are you a f * cking rabbit? Why are you running so fast?" Yu Xingchen was so anxious that he cursed.
"Hey, hey, hey." Zhang Shaoyang heard Yu Xingchen curse and a smirk appeared on his face. He pointed at Yu Xingchen and said, "You cursed!"
"Slap!" Yu Xingchen immediately let go of Zhang Shaoyang's arm and covered his mouth with his hand.
"You lost. You lost!" Zhang Shaoyang smiled proudly.
"You, you, you … Just leave!" Yu Xingchen said as he turned around and prepared to flee.
"Where are you going, Great Sect Leader Yu?" Just as Yu Xingchen turned around, Zhang Shaoyang pressed down on Yu Xingchen's shoulder. "Where are you going?"
"My hands are really cheap. Why do you think I pulled you?" Yu Xingchen turned around and said with a face full of annoyance, "I just let you run away." He had once boasted in front of Zhang Shaoyang that he would never swear. Zhang Shaoyang didn't back down and said that he had never been drunk. The two of them made a bet. If Yu Xingchen were to swear, he would have to treat Zhang Shaoyang to a drink. If Zhang Shaoyang were to get drunk, he would have to show Yu Xingchen the Monkey Fist. This time, in a moment of carelessness, Yu Xingchen blurted out the word 'motherf * cker'.
"Hehe, what's the matter? Head Sect Leader Yu, are you going back on your word?" Zhang Shaoyang crossed his arms and asked Yu Xingchen with a mischievous smile.
"Okay, okay, okay. I admit defeat. Tell me, where do you want to drink?" Yu Xingchen said with a bitter face. It wasn't a big deal to treat someone to a drink, but that was for ordinary people. One had to know that the Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect were different from the Taoist priests of the Zhengyi Sect. The Quanzhen Sect abstained from alcohol and meat and couldn't get married. The Zhengyi Sect, on the other hand, was relatively relaxed. Not only could they get married, but they could also drink and eat meat except during rituals. There were only a few animals that couldn't be eaten, which were wild geese, cows, turtles, and dogs.
As the head of the Quanzhen Sect, Yu Xingchen had to treat others to a drink even though he had abstained from alcohol. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't feel good.
"I think it's simple. Treat me to a meal at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant on Mount Longhu." Zhang Shaoyang smiled wickedly and put his arm around Yu Xingchen's shoulder.
"Drunken … Drunken Immortal Restaurant?" Yu Xingchen was tongue-tied after hearing Zhang Shaoyang's words. He broke free from Zhang Shaoyang and said, "Are you robbing me?!" The Drunken Immortal Restaurant was famous for its food and wine. A table of dishes cost more than ten taels, and this didn't include the cost of the wine. A jar of five years old Drunken Immortal cost at least five taels. Zhang Shaoyang was known to not get drunk even after a thousand cups. He had a great alcohol tolerance and could easily drink three jars. Based on this calculation, this meal would cost at least thirty taels of silver. Thirty taels was enough for Yu Xingchen to eat and drink for a year. It would be strange if he wasn't in a hurry.
"Look at you, what's the hurry? Isn't it just a table of food and wine?" Zhang Shaoyang asked while holding back his laughter.
"It's easy for you to say. This is a table of food and wine from the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, not a plate of leeks from a roadside shop," Yu Xingchen said anxiously. "This table will cost at least thirty taels."
"Thirty taels?" Zhang Shaoyang raised his eyebrows and asked Yu Xingchen.
"What? You don't believe me? Let me calculate for you. "Yu Xingchen stretched out his hand and started counting with his fingers." Heavenly Master, with your useless stomach, you'll need at least five dishes. A dish from the Drunken Immortal Restaurant usually costs two taels of silver, and this is only for ordinary dishes. If it's the best dishes, you'll have to pay more. "Yu Xingchen calculated with a bitter face." Ten taels of silver for each dish. "
"Only ten taels." Zhang Shaoyang curled his lips.
"Shut up." Yu Xingchen glared at Zhang Shaoyang and said through gritted teeth, "Don't be in a hurry. The rat has the shovel in its mouth, and the big head is at the back."
Zhang Shaoyang held back his laughter and didn't say anything.
"The Drunken Immortal Restaurant has to be at least five years old and costs five taels of silver per jar." Yu Xingchen gestured with his hands. "A jar of this size costs five taels! Heavenly Master, with your average alcohol tolerance, you'll need at least three jars! Fifteen taels of silver! This is all thanks to you, Heavenly Master, for being magnanimous and forgiving to a poor man like me. "
"Twenty-five taels in total." Zhang Shaoyang smiled.
"How about a private room? Heavenly Master, you're of noble status, you can't eat in the main hall! "Yu Xingchen gritted his teeth and spat out," A private room costs at least five taels! "
"Forget about the private room." Zhang Shaoyang looked at Yu Xingchen, whose eyes were burning with anger, and said with a smile, "The two of us can eat in the main hall."
"I have to spend the money for a private room." Yu Xingchen glared at Zhang Shaoyang. "I'm the head of the Quanzhen Sect, who abstains from alcohol and meat. How can I treat someone to a drink in front of so many people? If word gets out, people will laugh their heads off! "
"Hehehe …" Zhang Shaoyang couldn't help but laugh when he saw Yu Xingchen's bleeding heart.
"You're still laughing!" Yu Xingchen glared at Zhang Shaoyang. "This meal cost me a year's worth of food and drink money!"
"I say, Brother Yu, you're too stingy." Zhang Shaoyang smiled. "The head of the Quanzhen Sect is treating someone to a meal, and you're already heartbroken when you spend thirty taels. If word gets out, won't you lose your dignity as the head of the sect? If I knew you couldn't even bear to part with such a small amount of money, I wouldn't have made the bet with you. "
"Thirty taels is too little!" Yu Xingchen panicked. "I'm treating you alone! And you're saying I'm a vegetarian! "
"Sigh, forget it. This wine is boring. You don't have to treat me. Just pretend I didn't mention it." Zhang Shaoyang deliberately provoked Yu Xingchen. "You can go back to Mount Zhongnan. I'm going back to Mount Longhu."
Zhang Shaoyang pretended to fly away as he spoke.
"Hey, hey, hey." Yu Xingchen fell for it. He grabbed Zhang Shaoyang and said, "Explain yourself."
