After seeing off a few guests, shopkeeper Yan personally packed up Qiushui Juli's tea sets, and then carrying the tray, he would also smile and nod when he saw familiar old customers in the corridor.
There is nothing wrong with such an extremely gentle manner. On the contrary, it makes people feel refreshed and feel that this person is indeed a gentleman.
After returning the tea set, shopkeeper Yan walked all the way to the end of the third floor and entered a private room called "Chunhua Pavilion".
Several girls who were practicing making tea saw this and quickly tried to get up, but shopkeeper Yan stopped them with his hand and said with a smile: "You continue, don't worry about me."
The girls looked at each other, and finally sat back hesitantly.
Shopkeeper Yan stared at them for a moment, nodded with satisfaction, turned around, opened the secret door behind the screen, and walked in slowly.
The moment he left, the girls began to tremble all over, but they persisted without making any sound. The teapot in their hands poured out a line of water that was scattered due to trembling.
The girl who spilled the tea immediately pinched her wrist, her beautiful face twisted with fear, and she held on tightly without letting go and smashing the teapot.
The situation of the other girls was not much better.
It was as if the gentle shopkeeper just now was as terrifying as a man-eating beast.
…
After the secret door, there is an extremely dark passage.
This passage goes straight down, and it is obvious that there is a whole other world beneath the tea house.
Shopkeeper Yan walked into it, kneaded the seal with his hands, and recited a few words silently. The walls on both sides flickered with light, a series of 'bang bang' sounds were heard, and the miserable green flames shot up out of thin air, illuminating the passage.
Walking in the passage filled with green light, Shopkeeper Yan had an expressionless face. His gentle and jade-like temperament gradually turned into a treacherous and evil aura. He took out his handkerchief and wiped his palms fiercely as if disgusted.
On his hand, there was still the lingering fragrance of 'Qiu Su' tea. Shopkeeper Yan, who was supposed to love tea like his life, was so disgusted with the fragrance of tea in his hand that he wiped his palm until it turned red as blood before giving up.
While putting away his handkerchief, he also passed through this passage and stopped in front of a stone wall.
Shopkeeper Yan bent his fingers and tapped several times on the stone wall. After a pause, he tapped several more times.
After knocking thirty-six times in a row, a portal suddenly appeared on the wall. Shopkeeper Yan stepped into the portal and saw that his field of vision suddenly opened up, and it was another 'tea house'.
Among them were many boys and girls wearing transparent white gauze, holding tea sets with dull expressions, and shuttled around various tables.
The guests who were chatting and laughing wildly all had terrifying faces, including a ferocious bald man, a strange old man in strange clothes, and even some weirdos shrouded in black robes.
Each of these people filled the table, with a total of twenty or thirty people, and the boys and girls walking between them stood there as blankly as wood after putting down the tea sets, their eyes dull and full of deathly gray.
Shopkeeper Yan walked into this 'teahouse' and said with a long smile, "I've kept you waiting for a long time."
When those strange customers saw Shopkeeper Yan, they all picked up their teacups and smiled back at him.
The bald man sitting in the middle even picked up the entire teapot and said with a strange smile: "Old Yan, you are half an hour late today, you deserve to be punished!"
With that said, the giant man threw the teapot towards Shopkeeper Yan, mixed with the fierce wind, making everyone look at him sideways.
Shopkeeper Yan calmly raised his hand, took the teapot easily, and used a strange technique to neutralize the giant man's strength. He smiled and said, "You old devil, are you going to punish me in my teahouse?"
The bald man narrowed his eyes, chuckled, and said nothing.
Shopkeeper Yan didn't care. He picked up the teapot and said, "It's true that I was a little late today, so I'll just punish myself with a teapot."
As he spoke, he raised the teapot, tilted his head and poured it into his mouth, his movements extremely heroic.
However, the spout that was supposed to spit out a line of water actually gushed out thick red liquid. Shopkeeper Yan swallowed it in big mouths, and the tangy blood spread out of his nose.
What was in that teapot... was clearly blood!
"happy!"
After drinking the pot of blood, Shopkeeper Yan wiped the corners of his mouth, and the eye-catching scarlet color faded away.
The bald man also grinned and said: "If you ask me, your teahouse is good at everything, but the measuring tools are too stingy! I don't even feel happy when I drink it!"
Upon hearing this, shopkeeper Yan handed the teapot to the dull girl who came over, and said with a smile: "Then I wonder what measuring tool you, the old devil, want?"
The bald man slapped the table, stood up suddenly and said: "If you ask me to use a crappy measuring tool, of course it's better to drink it directly!"
He laughed wildly, grabbed the beautiful girl beside him with his hand like a cattail leaf fan, pinched her chin and said: "Today you are the 'people wine', her beauty is the best, I have endured it for a long time. Got it!"
Before he finished speaking, the giant man picked up the girl, opened his bloody mouth and bit her white and tender neck.
The girl had a dull look on her face, and blood gushed out from her mouth, but she didn't even hum, as if she wasn't the one whose neck was bitten.
Gudong, Gudong, Gudong...
There was silence for a moment, and the only sound left was the sound of the giant man swallowing blood, which was very harsh.
After drinking it happily, the giant man threw the girl with eyebrows who could only breathe out but not into the ground, wiped his chin and said: "This is called happiness!"
Shopkeeper Yan narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
However, the giant man's behavior caused dissatisfaction among several guests.
An old man with paper talismans all over his body said coldly: "Old Demon Tu, do you think this is your home?"
The bald man licked his lips and looked over with cold eyes, "What, you want to compete with me?"
This giant man is obviously a powerful physical cultivator. In terms of combat power, he is enough to rank among the top three in the field.
As for the old man whose whole body was covered with paper charms, he frowned. Just as he was about to say something else, he was interrupted by Shopkeeper Yan, "You two, please speak up if you have anything to say, and don't hurt your friendship. It's just that A 'human wine', since Brother Tu is so elegant, as long as he stays in the building for a few days, I will arrange the best 'human wine' for Brother Tu to enjoy himself."
"Haha, how about saying that your boss Yan is good at doing business?" The bald man patted his knee, obviously very satisfied with shopkeeper Yan's promise.
However, the old man was dissatisfied and said: "Shopkeeper Yan, I'm not here today just to taste someone's wine. Why don't we get down to business quickly?"
"That's right, Shopkeeper Yan, although your wine is good, not everyone is willing to enjoy it." A girl in purple said coldly: "You said before that the Jitian Demon Kingdom obtained the 'Upper Realm' Demon The clan’s secret treasure, is it real?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone stopped.
Even the bald man showed a cautious expression.
