Chapter 1918

"Welcome, immortals!"

When the shopkeeper saw Xue Xue's celestial demeanor, he knew that the waiter was right. He bowed respectfully and said, "I am Han Jiang, the shopkeeper of this restaurant. Please come upstairs, Immortals!"

"En!" Xue Xue didn't comment and stepped on the stairs.

Xiao Hua fell behind Xue Xue and said with a smile, "Thank you, shopkeeper Han!"

When Han Jiang heard this, he was flattered and said with an apologetic smile, "Immortals coming is already my humble restaurant's honor. Immortals, please!"

"En ~" Xiao Hua asked at the side of the stairs, "Shopkeeper Han, is Cold River Restaurant's business good?"

"Ah?

Business? "

Han Jiang seemed to be very surprised by Xiao Hua's question and almost forgot himself. He immediately said with an apologetic smile, "So-so, so-so. Barely making a living, barely making a living!"

"Hehe!"

Xiao Hua smiled. He pointed at the fishing boats on the river, as well as the passersby, and said with a smile, "This is a paradise, all the passersby are resting here. Even I, a cultivator, have to stop when I see such beautiful scenery. How can your Cold River House's business not be good?"

"Hehe, immortals really understand the people's feelings. What you said makes sense!" Han Jiang's fat face was filled with a charming smile.

When Xiao Hua saw this, he didn't ask any more questions and quickly went up to the fourth floor. The second and third floors were obviously much less crowded. Moreover, they all seemed to have some status or were refined scholars. It was much quieter. When these people heard footsteps coming up the stairs, they all raised their eyes. However, when they saw the two immortal-like people and the respectful Han Jiang, they immediately understood. Therefore, their gazes became the same as the diners on the first floor, filled with fear.

"Immortals, my humble restaurant is divided into four floors. Only the top floor is prepared for immortals. The other three floors are for us mortals!"

Seeing Xue Xue frown again, Han Jiang didn't dare to be negligent and quickly explained, "There are already a few immortals on the fourth floor enjoying the scenery. Perhaps they are familiar with … Fellow Daoists!"

"Haha ~" Xiao Hua smiled. He clapped his hand and took out a spiritual stone. He gave it to Han Jiang and said: "We came from afar, so we won't have any friends that we know. Also, we came here to rest and enjoy the scenery. This is a spiritual stone. I wonder if Shopkeeper Han will accept it?"

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Han Jiang's eyes fell on the sparkling and translucent Spirit Stone, and a trace of greed appeared in his eyes. He immediately took it and nodded vigorously.

"En, that's good. Find some fresh fruits and bring them up. If there are any delicious wines, bring some too …" Xiao Hua said as he went up to the fourth floor.

Sure enough, just as Han Jiang had said, the fourth floor was even bigger than the first floor. All four sides were hollow, with three sides facing the river. There were only three huge tables in the spacious pavilion, and these three tables were placed on the side facing the river.

At this moment, there were already several Qi Condensation cultivators sitting in the middle facing the river. They were holding wine cups and looking at the beautiful scenery while shaking their heads and talking about something.

Hearing Xiao Hua's voice and the footsteps of the shopkeeper, these cultivators very casually turned their heads to look. "Si ~" First, they saw Xue Xue's beautiful appearance and peak Qi Condensation cultivation. They were all shocked. They looked at each other and were about to stand up. However, when Xiao Hua walked up, they didn't dare to hesitate and immediately jumped up from their chairs. They bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Senior!"

Xiao Hua looked at these five cultivators. There were three men and two women. They were all around the tenth layer of Qi Condensation. Seeing that they had similar appearances, Xiao Hua knew that they were probably disciples from a cultivation family that came out to experience the world. Thus, he smiled and waved his sleeve: "You can sit as you please."

"Yes!" The oldest disciple respectfully replied.

Xiao Hua looked at them and was about to walk to the table at the side. The oldest disciple quickly pointed at his seat and said: "Senior, this place is the best. Senior, please come here and sit!"

"Hehe, no need!" Xiao Hua said with a smile: "Just wait and enjoy. I and my lover will be right next to you!"

Hearing Xiao Hua call her lover in front of strangers, Xue Xue's face slightly reddened. Even her head slightly drooped. She followed Xiao Hua to the table at the side like a little girl.

"Yes, we will listen to Senior's instructions!" The oldest disciple could only respectfully reply.

Seeing the group of disciples respectfully addressing Xiao Hua as Senior, Han Jiang was happy and at the same time a bit afraid. He only thought that Xiao Hua was young and would have the same status as these disciples. How could he have known that Xiao Hua was a senior? How could he not know how powerful Xiao Hua was?

Moreover, powerful seniors mostly had strange tempers. If he wasn't careful, he could suffer a calamity.

"Why aren't you taking out all the specialties of Cold River House?"

The oldest disciple saw that Han Jiang was in a daze and immediately scolded: "If Senior isn't satisfied, don't blame me …"

"Cough cough!"

Xiao Hua coughed and said: "Fellow Daoist, don't scare Shopkeeper Han. Sit down, I will only stay for a while!"

"Yes, Senior, please do as you wish!" That disciple shrunk his neck and raised his head to signal the other four to sit down.

Soon after, Xiao Hua said warmly: "Shopkeeper Han, go down and prepare!"

"Yes, I will come right away!" Han Jiang seemed to have woken up from a dream and promptly rolled down from the fourth floor.

After Han Jiang left, the entire fourth floor regained its tranquility. The five Aura Refining cultivators who were gesticulating and laughing non-stop were now all obedient. They obediently sat on their respective chairs with their heads lowered, looking at the fresh fruits and delicacies in front of them.

"Alas," Xiao Hua sighed. He looked at Xue Xue beside him somewhat helplessly and transmitted his voice: "It was originally a good atmosphere, but it was ruined by me, a Foundation Building Senior!

These … Aura Refining aristocratic family's disciples are too reserved! "

Xue Xue disagreed and also transmitted her voice: "You're a Foundation Building Senior, so they should naturally be respectful in front of you. If they don't respect you and cause trouble, then they wouldn't be disciples of aristocratic families!"

"But … wouldn't that make them lose a bit of their spirit?

Lose the vigor of young people? "

Xiao Hua smiled bitterly. He thought back to that day in Flame Forest Swamp, when he argued with Zhen Ye, Xiang Min, and the others, and his eldest martial brother kept his head down and didn't dare to say anything. Wasn't that exactly the case?

"Forget it ~" Xiao Hua raised his head and said: "Which aristocratic family's disciples are you?"

"Reporting to Senior, Junior is from Mo Cloud Village's Qiang Clan." The eldest disciple promptly stood up and said respectfully.

"Ugh ~" Xiao Hua saw that the disciple didn't say anything more or less and was abnormally obedient in his introduction. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. His gaze swept over them and he asked again: "What are your names?"

"Reporting to Senior, Junior is called Qiang Lihao." Sure enough, after the eldest disciple finished speaking, he sat down obediently.

Then the other two men and two women reported their names in order of age. They were Qiang Limin, Qiang Liqiang, Qiang Yulian, and Qiang Xuemei.

"En ~" Seeing that they were so obedient, Xiao Hua also felt a bit awkward in his heart. He didn't say anything else and turned his head to look at Xue Xue with a smile. He pointed his finger and said: "Wife, look at that fishing boat in the river. Why are there so many birds standing on the side of the boat?"

"Pfft ~" Before Xue Xue could say anything, the female cultivator named Qiang Yulian not far away laughed out loud!

"Lian 'er!" Qiang Limin was shocked and hurriedly scolded: "Quickly apologize to Senior!"

"Senior …" Qiang Yulian immediately stood up. She was very frightened and wanted to apologize.

But when Xiao Hua heard her laugh, he immediately knew he was wrong. He had always been modest and didn't think much of it. He waved his hand and said: "Little girl, what's the matter with these birds?

Come here and explain to me! "

Qiang Yulian's small face was full of excitement. She trotted to Xiao Hua's side. After bowing, she respectfully said: "Senior is talking about cormorants, not birds. Senior, look, there is a thin rope around the cormorant's neck. It was made by a fisherman.

Cormorants are good at swimming and live by eating fish. The fisherman tied the cormorant's neck like this. The cormorant couldn't eat the fish it caught, so it could only be stuck in its throat. The fisherman only needed to stretch out his hand and pinch the fish out! "

"Oh?

There is such a fishing method? "

Xiao Hua was surprised. In his memory, it seemed to be something like fishing nets. After Qiang Yulian finished speaking, he carefully looked again. Sure enough, it was like this.

"This fisherman … hehe, he really reaped without sowing!" Xiao Hua clapped his hands and laughed.

"It's just a pity for the cormorant. It worked hard for nothing and became a wedding dress for others!" Xue Xue curled her lips and said.

"I'll let the two seniors know!"

Qiang Yulian smiled apologetically and said: "In the cold river, there are only thumb-sized fish. If it was a fishing net, I'm afraid the harvest would be very little. This junior has been used to seeing cormorants fishing since young, so I didn't think much of it!"

"That's right. Under the Heavenly Dao, everyone has their own opportunities. As long as you can see your own path, that is the path to heaven!" Xiao Hua said with a smile.

Unfortunately, not only did Qiang Yulian not understand these words, even Xue Xue was confused. Just as Xue Xue was about to say something, the shopkeeper of the Cold River House, Han Jiang, personally came up with a large plate of fresh fruits. Looking at the sweat on Han Jiang's forehead, it seemed that the fresh fruits were very heavy.

Han Jiang put the plate of fruits on the table and said respectfully: "Immortal senior, please eat!"

"En, thank you for your trouble, shopkeeper Han."

Xiao Hua smiled and nodded. Han Jiang was even more flattered. Qiang Yulian looked at Xiao Hua with interest. It seemed that she had never seen a senior so polite to a secular person.

Although fresh fruits were delicious, they couldn't be compared to spirit fruits. Xiao Hua ate a few and felt a little bored.

Han Jiang saw that Xiao Hua's face didn't have any joy, so he quickly smiled apologetically and said: "Immortal senior, just now, a fisherman sent over a special cabbage from the Cold River. I wonder if immortal senior wants to use it?"

"Cabbage?"

Xiao Hua was stunned and said curiously: "This thing is often found in the mortal world. Even if it's a special feature of your Cold River, what's so strange about it?"

When Qiang Yulian heard the word 'cabbage', her face also froze. Then she heard Xiao Hua's question and knew that Xiao Hua had misunderstood. She quickly said to Han Jiang: "Shopkeeper Han, since there is such a precious thing, why ask?

Quickly make it and send it up! "

"Yes, yes!" When Han Jiang heard, he quickly rolled down the stairs.
