Feng Ling and his group set out on the journey north silently. They looked like an ordinary group of traveling merchants and did not cause any commotion.
The weather was hot and the journey was very tiring. It was fine for those who were practicing, but the horses could not bear running for a long time. Even though they had also eaten elixirs and had been blessed with talismans of strength and low temperature, they were only twice as strong as other horses and still needed to rest in the middle of the journey.
At noon, they finally came across a teahouse beside the official road, which was specially provided for traveling merchants to rest.
Because there were guards leading the way, there were seats available for Feng Ling and the others as soon as they got off the car, and the store owner actively served them tea and snacks.
They are all bland snacks, but don’t underestimate these ordinary foods. On a long journey where everything is scarce, these things become very precious and rare, making people salivate.
The simple teahouse was filled with all kinds of guests. Those who didn't know would think that a banquet was being held, but in fact this was just the norm along the official road. There was a teahouse either close to the village or every few dozen miles.
Feng Ling's group is a bit unusual, mainly because Feng Ling is a pregnant woman and Wu Gong is a monk. They seem like a wealthy family that has encountered some difficulties and have traveled thousands of miles to find a famous monk for salvation, which has attracted the attention of others.
These people all have extraordinary looks. It would be a real pity if they really met with an accident.
Feng Ling didn't know that she had gained a wave of sympathy. While traveling in the carriage, she couldn't help but enter the practice mode so that she could overcome her physical discomfort.
At night, all the crew members fly and travel. In one night, they can travel a thousand miles and appear in another area, truly becoming elusive.
At that time, Feng Ling stuffed the horses and carriages into the space and took them out at dawn. They rested while traveling, and the guards took turns on duty.
Feng Ling has adapted well to the journey day and night, but she still looks a little haggard, so it's normal for others to sympathize with her.
Both Su the witch and Zhong Bo were heartbroken. As soon as they sat down, they started to serve tea and water to Feng Ling. However, this was just a small teahouse in the wild, so simple. What kind of exquisite food could they eat?
"My daughter has suffered so much. Your father, that fool, is really incompetent." At this time, Su the witch blamed her husband who had been away for many years. She did not take care of the child and had to let the child worry about him anyway.
While wiping Feng Ling's face and hands, Su the witch couldn't help nagging and took care of Feng Ling in the usual way of mortals.
In order to reassure the two old people, Feng Ling did not object. She said many times that she was not tired, but no one was willing to believe her and thought she was as fragile as glass.
Su the witch's words made Zhong Bo hesitate to respond. She thought Feng Ling was going after her father, but Zhong Bo knew that this was only one of the reasons. The other was for the situation in the northern border.
The female master is loyal to the male master and never abandons him.
"Your complexion isn't looking great. You need something warming and nourishing, like venison soup, or preferably dog meat..."
"Bang~~Bang~~Clang..." The sounds of countless people falling and the sound of shopkeepers breaking bowls and cups, the surroundings suddenly became noisy.
Because of Zhong Bo's words, which he had not yet finished, the teahouse, which was originally full of guests, immediately dispersed and became extremely empty.
Zhong Bo was stunned. He looked around but didn't see anything unusual. "What happened to them?"
"Maybe you said something wrong?" Su the witch didn't understand, but the customer did run away because of what Zhong Bo said.
"What did I say, old man? The master is in a bad mood?" What does this have to do with anyone else?!
"Venison?" Some places are taboo about eating certain meats.
"I've never heard of not being able to eat venison. If I remember correctly, there used to be a dog meat festival in this area..."
"Bang, bang, bang..." Finally, the guests did not dare to stay any longer, but ran away frantically holding their luggage, as if there was a wild beast chasing them.
The shop owner hid beside the stove and trembled. If all his belongings were not there, he would have wanted to run away.
"It's confirmed, it's dog meat! Huh? Isn't there a Dog Meat Festival? Why can't we eat dog meat? Could it be that you were bitten by a dog? Hahaha..." Isn't it funny that you are even afraid of dogs?
Anyway, this crazy monk Wu Gong is having a blast.
The shop owner nearly fainted. He knew it was the monk's fault, so why did he keep saying it? He had to say it! Was this monk crazy?
"Guest, guest, please stop talking, please stop talking, please leave quickly, please leave quickly, and spare my life and the teahouse."
The shop owner ran out, kowtowed to everyone and drove them away!
Zhong Bo slapped Wu Gong's head and said, "You little bastard, what are you talking about? You scared the boss." Young people have bad intentions.
Wu Gong was not stupid, he dodged it with a quick move of his body, "Uncle Zhong, didn't you say that first?" The one who really stirred up the hornet's nest was Uncle Zhong, okay?
At best, he just stirred it up a bit, making the hornets buzz more fiercely.
"Hei you kid, do you know how to respect the elderly and love the young?"
"I..."
"If you don't leave, I'll leave!" The shop owner cried angrily, wiped his tears, got up, and was about to leave in grief.
Zhong Bo raised his foot and chased after him, "Hey, hey, hey, boss, don't run, let's talk it over, what's going on?
You can say whatever you want. We have demon exorcists and ghost catchers in our team. Have you seen that foul-mouthed monk?
Don't underestimate him because he's from the capital. He's a fellow apprentice of the imperial master. He's been catching ghosts and monsters along the way, eradicating many disasters and saving countless people..."
