The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 113 - 86 Disadvantages

He hurried everyone to get to Rock City earlier with great effort, but it wasn’t just on a sudden impulse. Before purchasing the tea leaves, there were still many things the rchant team needed to take care of. However, these did not concern Ning Xiaoxian.

Now she faced another problem: lodging. Before entering the city, she had already taken the opportunity to let the little bat demon brothers slip away while the moving cart was at a halt. These two brothers lived by sucking blood and couldn’t settle down in this city.

As per the annual tradition, before the start of this year’s Rock City Tea Festival, the number of rchant teams arriving in this city of tea could reach about two hundred. Even taking into account the prosperity of the Emperor’s Fluid this year and the effects of the revived demons on the rchant traffic, Deng Hao estimated that there would still be around one hundred and seventy to eighty teams present, including about ten large-scale comrcial teams, with each team consisting of more than a thousand people.

Rock City had a permanent population of only about 170,000, and suddenly it had to accommodate more than 40,000 guests, making lodging instantly tense. Fortunately, Rock City was experienced in this regard, with the tea house district and the adjacent west district both hosting inns specifically for rchant teams to rest and lodge, known as rchant inns. These inns were not of high grade or price, but they had the advantage of particularly spacious rooms, where seven or eight people could comfortably sleep; the innkeepers only provided beds, hot water, and other simple services. For further enjoynt, one would have to go to the bustling area of Rock City.

Deng Hao led the Cloud Tiger Trading Team to stay in such a rchant inn. It was close to the storerooms of the tea house district, convenient for them to look after and also many rchant teams stayed there, which made it easy to exchange information privately and possibly negotiate many business deals.

And then the problem arose. Ning Xiaoxian was a pure young woman, and she had no intention of squeezing into a large dormitory room with a bunch of n to spend the night. First of all, there’s a line between n and won; secondly, she had too many secrets to hide. Deng Hao apologetically told her that now she could only find an inn in the city on her own. With a basketful of tasks at hand, the rchant team didn’t have ti to help her find a place to stay.

Ning Xiaoxian didn’t mind, but before she left, she still entrusted Deng Hao with a task that was crucial to her. Although he found her request sowhat peculiar, Miss Ning had many secrets, and he had begun to grow immune to them. Thinking that the team’s affairs wouldn’t suffer from one more matter, he readily agreed.

After all this fuss, it was already past 3 p.m. She bid farewell to the Cloud Tiger Trading Team and strolled into the eastern district of Rock City to look for a place to stay. However, her anxiety began to grow when she had walked into four or five inns and still hadn’t found a single vacant room.

Changtian couldn’t help but laugh and said, "What are you worrying about? Even if the whole city has no place to live, you won’t be exposed to wind and sun." His words carried a schadenfreude undertone.

She pouted unhappily, "You can’t say that, finding a good place to settle down makes it less suspicious when entering and leaving the God Demon Prison." Just because she carried a big prison with her didn’t an she wanted to sleep in a cell at night. "Now that I have money in hand, can’t I wish for soone to serve ?"

Actually, the most truthful reason was that since getting the Tusk yesterday, she shafully had the thought of evasion. Under Changtian’s persistent stare, she felt an imnse pressure upon her. The ambiguous and obscure look in this beautiful man’s eyes instinctively made her feel sowhat shy yet sowhat dangerous, causing her to subconsciously avoid facing him.

"Ai, Ning Xiaoxian, you’re just a coward!" Facing a handso man and having the urge to run away, she couldn’t help but curse herself internally.

Now she stood in front of the city’s largest and most luxurious inn, "Yuelai Inn," whose sign was polished so brightly that it could be seen from a mile away. However, as soon as she walked in, her brow furrowed. The number of guests queuing to check-in here was obviously more than at the other inns, and behind the counter, it was extrely busy.

When it was finally her turn, she quickly said to the Shopkeeper, "I want a deluxe room." The latter shook his head, "Sorry, the deluxe rooms are all booked. Now only three-bed rooms are still available."

"I just need one room," she lowered her voice, "I can add so extra silver."

The Shopkeeper, sweating profusely from the hectic work, smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "Miss, we really don’t have any single rooms left. I’ve even given up my own room and will have to share with the clerks tonight!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd behind burst into laughter, with a rough voice saying, "Miss, if you don’t mind, how about squeezing into a room with your brother tonight? I won’t charge you!"
