Capítulo 654: Chapter 297: Huangyuan Demon
Hu Yunhai, just based on this na alone, Zhou Xuan determined that among the people who knew Xu Jingshan back then, there were people from the Hu family.
Since there are people from the Hu family, then seeking out Sister Cui to inquire about them must be the right move.
But if you want to ask Sister Cui about matters concerning the Hu family, you need to avoid Zhao Wuya.
At this mont, Zhao Wuya had just finished feeding the black donkey so straw and entered the shop.
He crossed over the stone threshold, raising his voice as if afraid Yun Ziliang had hearing issues, and shouted: “Grand Master, guess what, today I went out to do so fortune-telling business, the stove was really burning hot, one after another,
Brother Xuan is impressive, but the number of deals he gets doesn’t compare to .”
Fearing Yun Ziliang might not believe him, he tilted his head, insisting that Zhou Xuan corroborate: “Brother Xuan, isn’t that right?”
“Right, absolutely right, before I got any business, Ya Zi got three deals.”
Zhou Xuan had been wondering what trick to use to get Zhao Wuya to leave, but then Zhao Wuya ca right to him, so he decided to flatter Ya Zi a bit.
He gave a thumbs-up to Yun Ziliang, saying: “Lao Yun, aside from being soone with a Great Buddha Fate, Ya Zi might also have considerable Daoist destiny. Today, I witnessed his skills firsthand; his Taoist achievents are truly profound.”
“Is this really the case?”
Yun Ziliang glanced at Zhao Wuya.
“Absolutely, I even thought to myself, this junior brother at the Dragon Seeking Hall, he might beco sobody important, his compass divination is praised by even Xu Jingshan, the one from dreams, for its accuracy.”
“So you’re saying, Ya Zi really learned a lot of essentials at the Dragon Seeking Hall?” Yun Ziliang saw Zhou Xuan giving him a look and naturally understood what it ant, so he too started praising Zhao Wuya.
“Grand Master, at the Dragon Seeking Hall, I too studied hard, mastering different skills through winter and sumr.”
“Wrong, wrong, it’s mastering through winter’s coldest days and sumr’s hottest days,” Zhou Xuan reminded him.
Although he wanted to flatter Zhao Wuya, when bestowing praise, it’s essential to adhere to basic principles, and this obvious mistake needed to be corrected.
Yun Ziliang acted “surprised,” patting the seat next to him, saying: “Co, co, co, Ya Zi, sit here and tell in detail what Dragon Seeking skills you used today, let’s let your Grand Master hear so excitent too.”
“It was absolutely thrilling.”
In the midst of Zhou Xuan’s relentless flattery, Zhao Wuya gradually lost himself, with a growing desire to brag,
he said: “Grand Master, hold on for a mont.”
He went out the door, rushed into the street like the wind, bought so marinated dishes, beer, roast duck, roast goose, returned to the store, lined the table with oilcloth, and started setting up a gathering with Yun Ziliang, also calling Yu Zhengyuan, Xu Li, and Little Fuzi to join in eating and drinking.
“We won’t join the table; the matters of your Dragon Seeking Hall…” Yu Zhengyuan, after all, is a major manager of the Zhou Family’s Troupe, discussing business dealings and transactions daily, attending many drinking, tea, and theater gatherings, and is very observant of the rules and etiquette.
Zhao Wuya went off the table to invite them, clearly intent on having a good boasting session, with more listeners, there’s more fun.
Zhou Xuan told Zhao Wuya: “Ya Zi, I’m heading out to take care of so matters, won’t be chatting with you.”
“Take care, Brother Xuan.”
Zhao Wuya was more than happy since he indeed had a lot of business today, though mostly because of affordability, Zhou Xuan was the witness.
If Zhou Xuan stayed there, Zhao Wuya couldn’t boast properly, and if he accidentally ntioned being “affordable,” how awkward would that be?
Zhou Xuan left the shop with a smile after giving a martial salute.
Zhao Wuya then raised his voice, beginning to boast about how he looked so celestial and commanding today, imdiately attracting attention as soon as he hit the streets.
He had barely started boasting when Yu Zhengyuan swapped the beer for liquor, refilled his cup, and praised, “Master Zhao, with that aura of yours, I was so dazed when I saw you today, having traveled far and wide for so many years, I’ve never seen such celestial poise as yours…”
Zhou Xuan reached the door and could barely hold back his laughter upon hearing his senior brother’s rciless flattery.
“Senior brother is gearing up for action.”
He understood that Zhao Wuya needed emotional value the most now, and Yu Zhengyuan was precisely the person who could provide it best.
In the Ping Shui Prefecture, praised as the king of backing acts, and the number-one supporter within the Zhou Family’s Troupe, is not a title gained for nothing.
With Yu Zhengyuan’s guest appearance at the drinking table, emotional value soared high, and Zhao Wuya was positively radiant, thoroughly enjoying himself…
Zhou Xuan then entered Sister Cui’s shop,
The shop’s hall was bustling with custors, both Sister Cui and Hua Zi were overwheld.
“Brother Xuan.”
Hua Zi greeted Zhou Xuan with a smile, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to work, washing dishes, scrubbing plates, delivering dishes,
Sister Cui was around the stove, her bangs damp with sweat, sticking to her forehead, Zhou Xuan walked over and said: “Sister Cui, is there soone nad Hu Yunhai in the Hu family?”
“Yes, that’s my third brother.”
Sister Cui, belonging to the “Yun” generation of spirit monsters, is a peer with Hu Yunhai.
“Hu Yunhai was already called the Third Grandfather Hu over two hundred twenty years ago, if he’s alive today, he must be near three hundred years old, right?”
“Not just that, adding up the years, this year my third brother is almost four hundred fifty years old.”
Goodness,
Zhou Xuan was shaking his head as he listened.
“It’s nothing surprising, spirit monsters’ perception is not like humans’, and their affinity for incense fire divine practices can’t compare to humans either; they just live longer,
the longer they live, the easier it is for them to reach a certain cultivation climate.”
“Your third brother has lived to four hundred fifty, then you must be a good few hundred years old as well.”
