The store was also dark, and the sound of seats being dragged was heard from time to time. The visitor wasn't surprised either, he just sat at the table in silence. Although his hands were placed on the table, they were tucked into each other's sleeves.
With such strict attire, almost no one could recognize his identity. Naturally, he was fully confident that he would not be recognized, so he dared to come to a place not far from Qiongtian Temple to have tea and rest.
He was playing with two round rain flower stones in his palms - this was enough to show his identity, but because his hands were wrapped in his sleeves, no one would notice.
Xi Zishi's body seems to have been in this weak state from which it cannot fully recover.
After taking the Skeleton Pill, after a night of duel, he tried his best to escape back to Fangtian, and his Qihai was seriously damaged in the process.
But...it seems that this is not the only reason. Because if it was just the Qi Sea that was damaged, he shouldn't have shown any sign of recovery after so many days.
Now, he might not be able to defeat Jue Tongjun that night.
As for the reason... Xi Zishi smiled bitterly. Although the film owner didn't say it, he could probably guess it.
That is... Although Huashidan is not addictive, it has strong side effects and dependence.
In his arms, he held the second Bone Transformation Pill that the Shadow Master had given him before leaving. But he knew very well that he could never use this poison a second time.
In addition, it is the real matter of the meteorite in the heart lake.
He has already handed the meteorite to the shadow master. Although he has also thought that this may be his last loyalty, Jiuche Xiaoying's plan to destroy the world is going to start a prairie fire. What can he do alone?
I'm afraid the only thing he can do is to take Tan Shenyue and retreat into the mountains. But the claws of Jiuche Xiaoying are spreading. As a close confidant of the shadow master, where can he find such a retreat that is isolated from the world?
"well……"
Feeling depressed, Xi Zishi raised his head and sighed.
At this moment, the waiter slowly walked over with herbal tea.
"Sir, your tea has arrived." The waiter gently placed the drawer containing the teapot and cups on his table. Seeing his strange look, the waiter quickly ran away.
Looking sideways at the waiter, Xi Zishi took the teapot and started to drink.
However, before he finished his second cup, he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door:
"Shopkeeper, I'm here again. This time I want a pot of top-notch Oolong."
That voice penetrated so deeply into Xi Zishi's mind that he almost spit out a mouthful of tea. After wiping his mouth indiscriminately a few times, he hurriedly turned around to look, and actually saw the guy he least wanted to meet.
Suddenly, I saw an old face striding towards the door.
Subiezhi chose a seat in the middle and sat down. The waiter responded and went to get ready. He put up one leg, rubbed his neck a little tiredly, and looked around the deserted shop.
He almost met Subiezhi's eyes, but fortunately Xi Zishi reacted quickly and turned his head in time, coughing twice in a low voice, and pretending to be choked by tea seemed extremely natural.
Unexpectedly...this lower world is really small.
Seeing his appearance, Xi Zishi seemed to have recovered. So now I am definitely no match for him, so it would be safer to find a way to escape as soon as possible.
Having made up his mind, Xi Zishi glanced at Subiezhi from time to time, planning to take the opportunity to leave the teahouse.
The herbal tea seems to be much bitter in the mouth, the purple stone cup has a bow and a snake shadow, and the heart is hanging in the throat.
And not far away, Subiezhi sat alone. Soon the waiter brought tea and snacks, and his attention was focused on the table.
Great time. When Xi Zishi saw this, he felt secretly happy in his heart.
He tiptoed, for fear of being seen by Subiezhi, so he slowly stood up and left his seat. As he walked by step by step, he glanced at Subiezhi from time to time, almost looking like a thief.
Subiezhi didn't pay attention to him. He came back from the wine alliance and came here to rest along the way. He was a little tired.
Xi Zishi's timing was indeed exquisite. The moment Subiezhi was drinking tea, he walked around his back lightly, and the narrow store door was in front of him.
"Sir, you haven't paid the bill yet!"
Suddenly, a shout was like a thunderbolt from the blue, completely splitting Xi Zishi and freezing him in place.
Unexpectedly, despite being hidden from Subiezhi's sight, he was caught by the waiter.
Xi Zishi almost wanted to beat his chest. But it was too late. In the empty teahouse, a few pairs of eyes focused on him, including Subiezhi.
Xi Zishi still turned his back to everyone. Although the store door was only a stone's throw away, he still didn't dare to run away after a brief consideration. After all, Subiezhiren is here, how could he escape under his nose?
The waiter at the shop didn't know the reason. He just wanted to make this Bawang tea drinker pay. Slowly approaching, Xi Zishi had to turn around slowly, and at the same time grabbed the black blouse tightly: "This, I..."
He won't be short of these few pennies for tea, but what should he do if Subiezhi targets him?
as expected. Just when he was thinking this, the chair next to him made a sound of scraping against the floor, and Sobieji really stood up!
Xi Zishi suddenly felt despair. This is a good time, one mistake will lead to eternal regret. He really wants to smile all over his face here.
Subiezhi turned around and walked towards the waiter and Xi Zishi. He was still holding something in his hand and his face was dark.
"You..." He walked behind Xi Zishi and spoke slowly.
Xi Zishi closed his eyes and thought, a good man must die eventually. He worked for Jiuche Xiaoying before, so this is his retribution!
"Are you a commoner who moved here to take refuge?"
"……ah?"
The atmosphere suddenly seemed to have stopped for a moment. After hearing Subiezhi's question, Xi Zishi stayed where he was.
Subiezhi looked at his rough clothes with pity, sighed and shook his head. He turned around and handed the silver in his hand to the waiter behind him, and said, "I paid for this man's tea."
The waiter was surprised: "Mr. Su, you don't need so much..."
Subiezhi shook her hair compassionately and smiled: "When I was a rich man in the early years, I would buy two cups of tea and drink one cup for reading. I don't need to change this little money."
The waiter was extremely happy and ran back to the inner hall holding the silver, not forgetting to glance at Xi Zishi.
But Xi Zishi didn't feel much gratitude in his heart...because this compassionate rich man would probably butcher him into a bun in the next second.
Nervous to the extreme, Xi Zishi thought about many situations and seemed to find that there was nothing he could do to save himself. Having no choice but to give up, he decided to kill him at the very least, so that he could at least die with dignity.
Trying to put on a more relaxed expression, he chose not to hide it anymore and turned his head naturally, staring at Subiezhi.
Subiezhi turned his head at the same time, with a gentle and jade-like smile on his face.
