The old man's expression was extremely calm, not like a prisoner at all. "Every slave here will be eaten."
"So, you've eaten before?" Ye Yuxi turned around and continued walking forward, but her pace slowed down a lot.
"Have eaten." The old man responded, his voice slightly hoarse.
"How did your last master die?" Ye Yuxi asked.
Regarding the Zhongling Pill, after buying Bai Jinyi from the auction house in Ningyuan City, Ye Yuxi checked the information about this pill. The Zhongling Pill is a control pill, and the user cannot disobey his master. Will, there are only three ways to relieve the effect of the medicine. First, refine the corresponding antidote. Second, the slave's strength breaks through the peak of the ninth level. After reaching Huang Ling, the bloodline will undergo some changes, and the contract function in the Zhongling Pill will no longer take effect.
There is also the last one, when the owner dies, the effect of the Loyal Spirit Pill can be released.
That's why Ye Yuxi directly concluded that the old man's previous master was dead.
Hearing Ye Yuxi's question, the old man fell silent.
"What's your name?" The old man didn't answer, and Ye Yuxi didn't care.
"They call me Lao Lai." Lao Lai said.
Ye Yuxi stopped again, "Lao Lai?"
In the slave market.
"Yasan, did the old man sell it?" A stall owner nearby struck up a conversation.
The slave stall owner looked at the direction where Ye Yuxi disappeared and let out a long breath, "Sold, the old rascal has finally sold it, grandma, that old immortal is so delicious. If it weren't for the fear of losing money, I would have whipped him long ago. Beaten to death."
"Just tell me, I don't believe you will kill me." The stall owner on the side looked unbelieving.
"Hey, I met someone who was taken advantage of today. I'll treat him to you later and give him a drink." The slave stall owner smiled.
The old man mentioned by the two stall owners was following Ye Yuxi obediently.
Hearing the surprise in Ye Yuxi's tone, Lao Lai explained: "I used to default on my debts and had no money to pay back, so they gave me this nickname."
"Deadbeat?" Ye Yuxi raised her eyebrows and looked around. This is the city of farewell. The deadbeat can still live to such an old age. It seems that this old man has a secret!
"It's not like you were a slave because you had too much money. You were sold by the shopkeeper to pay off your debt." Ye Yuxi's mouth was filled with a trace of amusement.
There was a hint of embarrassment on Lao Lai's bark-like face, as if Ye Yuxi had revealed the past.
"Do you know everything about the situation?" Ye Yuxi looked at the sky and saw that it was already very late.
"Stayed for decades." Lao Lai said.
"It's getting late. Which inn nearby is better? Take me there." Just after turning two streets, Ye Yuxi didn't see a single inn except for a few small teahouses. She probably didn't find the right place. At this time, Ye Yuxi Yu Xi didn't bother to look for it himself, so he directly became the shopkeeper.
Seeing how Ye Yuxi trusted him very much, Lao Lai was silent for a moment, then turned and walked towards an alley.
Looking at Lao Lai's back, Ye Yuxi raised her heels.
After walking a few streets, Lao Lai stopped and pointed to a tall attic in front of him: "This is the best restaurant in Beidu. It's not a black shop, but it's very expensive."
"I'm not short of money." Ye Yuxi raised her lips lightly and walked straight to the restaurant.
Lao Lai looked at Ye Yuxi's casual look, blinked his slack eyelids, and followed him anyway.
"Shopkeeper, here are two good guest rooms." Ye Yuxi came directly to the counter.
This inn is very large, with four floors. The first and second floors are for dining, and the third and fourth floors provide accommodation. It is evening now, and there are many guests having dinner in the building.
Seeing the old man behind Ye Yuxi, many guests looked startled, and some even had smiles on their lips, as if they were waiting to see a joke.
