Facing several grandfather-like elders bowing to him, Ye Li dared not accept it, and quickly turned sideways and said: "Uncle Li, Uncle Lin, the two Uncle Chens, and Sister Tie, what are you doing
I just did my job, after all, I am still the guard here."
After several people bowed, Li Xifeng said: "Ye Li, although you are a guard here, I am the one who pays you after all, and the conditions I put forward are all to hire a Spiritual Mist Stage Spirit Talisman Master.
In other words, if the opponent's strength exceeds this level, there is no need for you to take action at all. This is not a task that you must complete.
You should not refuse our gratitude. After all, you not only stopped Xie Qi from beating me and Hongdou, but also saved our reputation.
If the merchants are robbed at the fair, we won’t have to hold future trade fairs.”
Ye Li looked at the serious expressions on the faces of the elders, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I accept your gratitude."
At this moment, Hongdou also recovered from the shock she had just felt, and she quickly ran to Ye Li, holding his hand and saying, "Brother Ye, thank you.
Thanks to you just now, otherwise Hongdou would definitely be bullied by the bad guys."
Hongdou was thinking about what had just happened and was still a little scared while speaking.
Seeing Hongdou still feeling frightened, Ye Li reached out and touched her little head.
As they were talking, several traveling merchants came over from the venue, including Mu Xiangyun.
Although they were far away and couldn't hear the conversation of the crowd, they could see that a fight had taken place between the two sides, and they could also see how Ye Li subdued everyone by himself.
Only then did everyone realize that this unremarkable young man who was patrolling the venue was actually a cultivator at the Spiritual Sea Stage.
"Brother Xifeng, everyone, what exactly happened just now?"
Mu Xiangyun was very familiar with Li Xifeng and others, so he started to ask.
After Li Xifeng explained what had just happened, Mu Xiangyun gave Ye Li a thumbs up and a look of praise appeared on his face.
After everyone praised Ye Li, they finally began to leave the venue one after another.
After everyone left, Li Xifeng began to direct the workers to clean the venue and remove some things that needed to be removed.
After this trade fair, the venue will be preserved, and supporting buildings and facilities will be built around it. The wooden platforms that were originally only in the central area of the venue will also be replaced with stone platforms that will fill the entire venue.
The pergola will also be modified by rebuilding the originally simply processed bamboo poles and tarpaulin to make a shed that can provide shade and keep out rain.
Of course, these are all things that happened later. After instructing the workers to clean up, Li Xifeng and several old men took Ye Li Mengsheng and the others back to Yeyu City and once again set up a banquet in the Letian Inn.
During the dinner, Li Xifeng asked Ye Li, "Brother Ye, how long do you plan to stay in Katayama County this time?"
He wasn't asking anything, he was just chatting.
Ye Li said: "Uncle Li, I plan to stay in Katayama County for more than half a month to see the local customs and habits, and take on some commissioned tasks to accumulate some martial arts experience."
Li Xifeng nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "I wonder if you, Brother Ye, have found a place to stay in the future. Are you going to live here forever or look for another place to live?"
Ye Li thought for a moment and replied, "I think I will leave here in a while. Living in the inn all the time will limit my range of activities. I also want to visit another Shanhu City in Katayama County."
Hearing Ye Li say that he was going to Shanhu City, Li Xifeng's eyes lit up and he asked tentatively: "When do you plan to leave for Shanhu City, are you willing to go with us
The town where we live is between Yeyu City and Shanhu City. If you are willing, please stay at my home for a few days."
After hearing what Li Xifeng said, Ye Li hesitated for a moment, then said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Uncle Li, I would like to stay in Yeyu City for a while before going to Shanhu City.
Because I will definitely need to find some commissioned tasks to do, or practice for a period of time, so I don’t know the exact time to leave here.”
After hearing Ye Li's words, Li Xifeng knew that the other party was rejecting him politely, and there was a slight disappointment on his face.
But it was normal. After all, they just met by chance. Ye Li also had his own plans. It was impossible for him to change his plans just for an invitation.
Li Xifeng hesitated for a moment, and then stopped trying to persuade Ye Li. He just said, "Brother Ye, no matter what, we have received a great favor from you for this trade fair.
As the saying goes, great favors require no thanks. If Brother Ye can use us in the future, please feel free to use us.
We will stay in Yeyu City for three days. After finishing our business matters, we will go back to the town where we live.
The town where we lived was called Xiangyue Town, named after the beautiful Xiangyue Lake nearby. The scenery was very beautiful and was considered to be a unique place in Katayama County.
If Brother Ye is willing to come visit us when he is free in the future, we are willing to serve as our host.”
Seeing Li Xifeng's sincerity, Ye Li quickly responded, "Mr. Li, you are too kind. Ye Li has had a great time talking with everyone these days, and I am very happy that I can make some friends just by going out.
Since Xiangyue Lake is a unique place in Pianshan County, Ye Li will definitely travel around in the future, and when the time comes, he may come to bother Mr. Li."
Although Ye Li was going out for the first time, he was a child of aristocratic family after all, and he had strict family education, so his words were very decent and appropriate.
Because everyone's mission had been completed, they drank to their heart's content at the banquet that night, especially Meng Sheng and others. After they were happy with the drinking, they started to pull Ye Li to drink together.
In their words, if they were to fight, no matter how many people put together, they would not be able to beat Ye Li, so they could only have a drinking contest to see if all of them put together could get Ye Li drunk.
Of course, the result still disappointed them. Ye Li, who had the physique of a monster, was not someone that an ordinary person could easily drink.
In the end, Meng Sheng and the other seven drank so much that they lay down under the table. Ye Li's face was just slightly red, but he was far from being drunk.
Both the host and the guests had a great time that night, and the banquet lasted until late at night before everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, Li Xifeng and others went out to do business early in the morning, while Ye Li went to Yunlai Pavilion with Meng Sheng and others to hand over the entrusted tasks.
After handing over the mission and receiving twenty mid-grade spirit stones, Meng Sheng and others took on another escort mission, and the two sides said goodbye.
Ye Li finally had some free time and prepared to study the nine-character three-character spell that he had remembered while cutting wood, which was found in the secret rune area.
It was still morning at this time, and Ye Li left Yeyu City directly. He wanted to find a secluded place in the suburbs to experiment to find out what this mysterious talisman was.
