Chapter 699 Old Taoist Uncle Jiu?

Chapter 699 Old Taoist Priest = Uncle Nine?

Money is a very important thing at any time.

No matter how many or how little, no one can do without him.

"What? One penny for a night's stay?"

The old Taoist priest looked at the shopkeeper in front of him with an angry look: "Do you think we are outsiders who are easy to bully? I tell you, old Taoist, when I was making trouble in the capital, you were still playing in the ground!"

"If you can't afford it, don't live here!"

The shopkeeper also had a bad temper: "Three pieces of silver are already given for the sake of you being a monk!"

"you!"

The old Taoist priest was furious, and then he took out a piece of silver cut out of his sock and slapped it on the table: "Who said we can't afford to live here!"

The shopkeeper looked at the size of the silver and was about to speak, but his nose seemed to have been punched by something, and he backed away: "Okay, okay, Gouzi, take these two to Room C, No. 3."

"Send some food and get two buckets of hot water."

The old Taoist priest snorted, turned around and walked towards the stairs.

Amber looked at Yinzi, then at the shopkeeper's troubled expression, and observed a few seconds of silence for him.

Most people have to be mentally prepared to touch the things that were taken out of those socks.

The waiter obeyed the order and came over obediently with hot water. After Amber and the old Taoist priest finished taking a bath, they served a few more dishes of vegetarian dishes.

"You two, the shopkeeper said that the money you gave us can only stay for one night, including food. As for hot water, we provide it for free, but there is a limit."

He said it very politely, without the scornful look in the book.

As for the shopkeeper, although he despised the old Taoist priest for being poor, he did not say anything evil and was even called polite.

This is also the survival wisdom of little people in the capital.

After all, this city is full of dragons and snakes, and those who judge people by their appearance will die from this sooner or later.

"Have a good rest and I'll take you there tomorrow."

The master and apprentice lived in the same room, and there was no other way. They only had so much money.

But fortunately, after taking a shower and changing into new clothes that I had been reluctant to wear, the smell finally faded away.

"Can't we tell who it is yet?"

Amber asked casually while sleeping on the floor.

He had just opened the window. At this angle, he could see the moon outside, and with the few branches in front of the window, there was quite a bit of artistic conception inside.

"You'll know when you see it."

The old Taoist priest's voice became a little deeper, "Shou Xin, you have to walk the next journey alone."

"Master, I bet you will live a long life."

Amber said confidently.

"Haha, it's rare to be over sixty, let alone a hundred years old? Don't say such nice things, just go to sleep."

The old Taoist priest was not very polite, but he couldn't suppress the smile in his eyes.

Well, I can’t see it anyway.

Amber didn't say anything anymore, but used a method that no one could detect, to condition the old Taoist priest's body bit by bit.

He can control his own cells, but he cannot do the same to others, but extending his life by ten or twenty years is not a problem.

The old Taoist priest didn't know all this, and thought it was because he hadn't been back for too long and was too excited that he always felt like he had endless energy.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, the master and apprentice packed up their things, came down, had breakfast, and left the inn.

"You are not allowed to speak later, just follow me as your master."

"I know, this is already the fourteenth time, I have already remembered it."

"Are you impatient?"

"Don't dare, don't dare. Master, watch the road carefully. Everything is good in Kyoto, but there are too many people."

Amber looked at Wu Yangyang's head and said very dissatisfied.

"Of course that's the case here."

The old Taoist priest gently stroked his long beard on his chin and said with a smile: "The people who live here are ordinary people, and those who have money go elsewhere. Moreover, the closer you are to the imperial city, the more noble your status is."

Amber nodded and continued to appreciate the surrounding environment.

Although it is based on memories of other worlds, the architecture of Qing Kingdom still has its own unique style.

Just like Qingren's character, he pays attention to pragmatism.

But the further you go, the more different the situation becomes, gradually moving closer to exaggeration and luxury.

The old Taoist priest didn't stop until a mansion covering an unknown number of hectares came into view.

"Master, don't say that your old friend is here."

Amber's mouth twitched a few times and said.

"Oh, it's not just an old friend, this is my teacher's former home."

The old Taoist priest finally told the truth and looked at the words on the door plaque with empty eyes.

Speaking of which, Emperor Qing was also named Li.

An idea came to Amber's mind that even she thought was ridiculous.

"Master, don't tell me that you are a member of the royal family."

"Why can't it be?"

The old Taoist priest turned around and said, "My master's real name is Li Geshan. He is the half-brother of the late emperor and the uncle of the current emperor."

"Then why do you want to go up the mountain and hide your name?"

Amber said directly.

The old Taoist priest's face froze, "Why are you asking about this? Don't ask if you shouldn't."

"Okay, okay, if you don't ask, don't ask. But after so many years, is your identity still good?"

Amber looked at his extremely troubled look and said a little helplessly: "I thought you were going to take me to the Taoist temple here. I should have persuaded you when I came down the mountain."

"I'm not doing this just for you."

The old Taoist priest exhaled a foul breath: "Didn't I tell you that it's a crime to possess a treasure? As the saying goes, if you have a sharp weapon, you will kill yourself. Can you guarantee that you will never use thunder magic in your life?"

"This... It's not impossible."

Amber thought about it. If he wanted to kill someone, he could just blow his breath. Thunder magic and the like are more symbolic.

"Hehe, do you think I believe it?"

After a conversation, the pressure in the old Taoist priest's heart was finally relieved, and he finally made a decision.

He walked towards the house with an absurdly high threshold. After gently knocking on the door knocker, the vermilion door was opened and a head popped out from inside.

"Do you know where this is?"

"Of course I know."

"Then you dare to knock randomly?!"

"Please show this to your head of the house and say that an old friend is visiting."

"Wait!"

The door was closed again.

The old Taoist priest took a few steps back and stood there waiting.

"Master, why don't we live somewhere else?"

Amber said tentatively: "Many things, once started, there is no way back."

"There is no way back."

The old Taoist priest looked at the gate, his tone had returned to its previous calmness.

Since the day you mastered the thunder method.

A quarter of an hour later, the gate was opened, and a beautiful and unparalleled palace-dressed woman walked out.

She was like a phoenix, proud and full of aggression.

"Uncle Jiu, you dare to come back?"

Except for the two unlucky sons who were killed by Barrett, the old emperor of Nanqing Kingdom naturally had more than just King Cheng. It was just because of that woman that the others either died or stayed away from the temple and lived in anonymity.

And the one who called the old Taoist priest uncle was naturally the current emperor's sister, the eldest princess Li Yunrui.
