Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 67: False guessing

However, Ji Yuan in the corner was actually noticed by some people. Many people saw it when the restaurant clerk led Ji Yuan to the corner just now.

The voices exchanged between Ji Yuan and the waiter were relatively low and could not be heard clearly by others, so a normal person would understand the incident as follows: A cash-strapped, slovenly and down-and-out man came into the Hui Guesthouse and wanted to eat. Afraid of affecting business, the restaurant staff eventually took the man to a corner.

Looking at the appearance alone, no one would have guessed that Ji Yuan would order a large table of dishes, probably just steamed buns with boiling water and a portion of pickled vegetables.

Of course, some people will whisper about Ji Yuan, and there are many words such as "poor person" and "smell" in their words.

I don’t care about the fate of this plan. You eat what you have, and I don’t covet the leftovers on your table. I don’t know if my own food will be served later, and it will cause many people to be surprised.

However, while waiting, Ji Yuan also kept paying attention to some interesting things. For example, three or four tables away from him, there was a man wearing a Taoist robe holding a bamboo whisk, and there was another person sitting next to him. The child, who is about fourteen or fifteen years old, is also dressed as a Taoist boy.

This is the first time Ji Yuan has seen a Taoist priest in this world. Of course, this Taoist priest is just a secular Taoist priest, not an expert in immortality.

The two people seemed to have encountered a little difficulty.

The Taoist boy was holding a bowl of water and pouring it into his stomach. After drinking, he wiped his mouth and asked the Taoist priest next to him with a sad look on his face.

"Master, we have almost spent all our money. We can only eat steamed buns and cabbage for this meal. When can we go back to Du Yunguan?"

"There is no hurry about the money. After this meal, I will find a street corner stall to tell my fortune. I can always earn some money for food. I can only take my time when I go back."

The Taoist priest also drank water to fill his stomach and responded to the disciple's complaints, but when the latter heard that he was going to set up a stall to tell fortunes, he immediately became a little anxious.

"Master, you are setting up a fortune-telling stall again... Say goodbye... Last time in Qingliu County, people overturned the stall and beat us up. You haven't longed to remember it!"

"Hey, don't mention that thing again. I have a better memory this time. Say what you need to say. Choose the good things to say and hold back the bad ones. I will definitely make money when you see good things. Those Those who are fierce can be ignored. ”

The Taoist priest also seems a little shy and forgets things, and his self-confidence has weakened a lot just now.

"You say that every time..."

The disciple muttered in a low voice. The Taoist priest probably didn't hear it, but Ji Yuan heard it clearly and a smile appeared on his lips.

Interesting, no matter how you look at it, they look like two living treasures, or in other words, a big living treasure and a troubled apprentice.

"Sir, your white steamed buns and braised cabbage are ready, please use them slowly!"

The waiter at a restaurant came to serve the food on a large wooden tray. He brought the steamed buns and cabbage belonging to the master and the apprentice to the table, and then left to serve other tables.

The eyes of the Taoist priest and the boy were obviously fixed on the bowls of meat and vegetables on the waiter's wooden tray. After the other party left, they reluctantly moved their eyes back to their own table.

"Hey...eat..."

"Well..."

The two of them sighed like eggplants beaten by frost.

This really made Ji Yuan happy. It’s not that he was unkind, but the atmosphere had quite a comedic effect.

"Sir, your dishes are here~~~ These are pickled pork elbows, steamed noodle cakes, boiled cabbage, stir-fried cabbage and pickled radish. The old hen soup and braised three delicacies are more labor-intensive, so we have to wait a while~~ ~"

The waiter who brought it to Ji Yuan’s table shouted and put the dishes on the table one by one.

The waiter at Huikelou has a habit of announcing the names of the dishes at some tables that order hard dishes very loudly when the dishes are served. I wish that not only the whole hall but also the people on the street outside could hear, such as the Taoist master and his apprentice. Then, serving food is much quieter.

But combined with the previous impression given by Ji Yuan, the dishes he ordered showed a sense of contrast. Many people looked like nothing on the surface, but were a little surprised in their hearts.

After the waiter put down the last plate of pickled radish, and just as he was about to leave, Ji Yuan stopped him, looked at the master and apprentice pair and said:

"Second brother, please tell the two Taoist priests over there and ask them to have dinner with me."

Speaking of this, Ji Yuan looked at himself and added another sentence.

"Well, if they don't mind it."

Just for the fun he had just had, Ji Yuan was willing to treat them to a meal with little effort, and judging from the content of his words just now, it seemed that the Taoist fortune teller was not just a charlatan.

"Uh...Okay, I'll tell them!"

The waiter carried a wooden tray and trotted up to the table where the Taoist master and apprentice were eating steamed buns and cabbage.

"Well, two guests, the guest at the corner said that if you two don't dislike it, you can sit over there and eat together. Yes, it's the one who smiled at this."

The two Taoist priests, one large and one small, looked in the direction of the waiter’s finger.

"Him? He can pay the bill by himself... Regardless of whether he can pay or not, Xiaowen, let's go there!"

The Taoist priest muttered something and smiled at the waiter, and hurriedly led his apprentice to Ji Yuan's table, not forgetting to bring his own white steamed buns and braised cabbage.

……

As he pulled away the bench and sat on it, the Taoist priest introduced himself.

"Uh hehe... I don't know what to call this gentleman. Xiao Dao Qi Xuan, nicknamed Qingsong Taoist. This is my apprentice Qi Wen. I don't know why you want to invite me, master and apprentice, to dinner?"

At this time, the waiter didn't say a word, he just sat in his seat and stared at several plates of food.

"As a matter of fact, I rarely see Taoist priests, so I would like to invite him over to have a meal with me so that I can take a closer look."

Both parties did not salute, just chatting.

"Oh, fine..."

The Taoist priest suddenly froze in the middle of his words, because he found that although Ji Yuan's eyes were bright, they were pale in color, and the sentence "Are you blind?" was held in his throat, so that he could not blurt it out.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it for now. Let's eat. The food won't taste good when it's cold."

Ji Yuan knew that if he didn't speak, the master and apprentice were still cautious and would not use chopsticks without permission.

"It just so happens that you have white steamed buns, and I forgot to order rice. Well, they complement each other perfectly!"

While talking, Ji Yuan took the lead in grabbing a steamed bun and took a bite, then stretched out his chopsticks to pick up some vegetables to eat. The master and apprentice on the side could not hold back, so they also started eating with their chopsticks.

Although the situations are slightly different, the three of them are all people who have not tasted delicious food for a long time. Now they can't stop eating and their mouths are so delicious.

Ji Yuan's eating habits are not bad. He has formed a habit over the past few months. He picks up vegetables with his sleeves, chews and swallows with a certain grace, and his eating speed is not slow.

The two masters and disciples were completely devouring their food, and it was surprising that they didn't choke.

Comparing the two, the diners at the nearby tables had a strange illusion. It seemed that Ji Yuan, who was filthy and smelly, was very dignified, but the two Taoist priests, one big and one small, looked more Like a down-and-out man.

As the rest of the dishes came out, Ji Yuan added two more plates of side dishes and ordered three large bowls of rice. The three of them opened their bellies together and cleared away most of the dishes on the table.

At the end, the master and the apprentice each drank half a bowl of old hen soup, and they really couldn't eat any more.

Seeing the two masters and apprentices rubbing their bellies with satisfied expressions on their faces, Ji Yuan smiled.

"The two Taoist priests don't want to eat?"

"Oh burp~~~I'm full, I'm full..." "I can't eat any more! I'm full..."

"Haha, that's good, the rest is rounded up by Ji."

Afterwards, Ji Yuan swept away the entire table of leftovers with a whirlwind of force, not even the chicken soup was left, which made the master and apprentice a little stunned.

After Ji Yuan finished the last bite of cabbage, he put down his chopsticks and said hello in one direction of the store.

"Little brother, you can check out here!"

"Hello, guest~"

As soon as the money is collected, the store owners are the most efficient. Look for Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com A meal cost more than a hundred cents. Counting the copper coins was too troublesome, so Ji Yuan just gave him a piece of silver and asked the waiter to take it to the counter to weigh it and settle the payment.

Seeing that Ji Yuan really had money to pay the bill, both the master and the disciple breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir, a Taoist priest also has a head, two hands and two legs. You can look at it from a distance. You are a kind person if you treat us to a meal. How about I tell your fortune?"

"Fortune telling? That's interesting. Does the Taoist want to take a horoscope or read a palmistry?"

"It's best to have horoscopes, and facial and palm reading are also acceptable."

"Okay, let's test Ji's horoscope first."

Ji Yuan smiled and told the birth date of his previous life. Because of his uncle-in-law, Ji Yuan knew his birth date, and fortune tellers in those days said that his birth date was good.

The Taoist priest squinted his eyes and thought carefully after hearing the eight characters. It seemed like the same thing, but after a while, the Qingsong Taoist frowned more and more tightly, and finally looked up at Ji Yuan.

"Did you lie to me? Is this your horoscope?"

"Guaranteed replacement if fake!"

Ji Yuan answered naturally. He didn’t know the horoscopes in this life, but he still had his horoscopes in the previous life, right?

"You are lying! If this were your horoscope, you would be dead long ago!"

"Master~~!"

The disciple on the side was very anxious. He had been sweating a lot since eating just now, and he said such offending words casually.

"Uh...oh, um, I just said it wrong, I said it wrong..."

Halfway through uttering the word "了", the Taoist priest already felt dizzy and his chest was extremely tight. In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer.

The world is spinning...

“Pfft~~~”

A large mouthful of blood spurted out on half the table, and Taoist Qingsong fainted directly on the table.
