Sometimes two people who had never met each other had to sit several tables apart to talk, and the atmosphere was extremely lively. In such an environment, Lu Yunyou's mood gradually improved.
"We'll stay at this inn tonight," Ling Yun came back after a while after settling the bill.
"Okay," he said. Lu Yunyou, who was a little drunk, wanted to rest in the guest room for the night. Since he left the inn more than half a month ago, he had not had a good night's sleep. Speaking of which, he was still not used to the kind of life of sleeping in the open air. , now that he finally has a guest room, he just wants to put aside all his worries and have a good night's rest.
Then, under the guidance of an inn clerk, the two walked into a clean guest room on the second floor. The room was not big, but it was fully furnished and had all the necessary daily necessities. When the clerk left, Lu Yunyou couldn't wait to carry it on his back. Put all the baggage and weapons on the table, and then sit directly at the table to rest.
The room was a little dark. After Ling Yun lit a few oil lamps, the surroundings gradually became brighter. Ling Yun then went to open the window to let in some air.
As a result, as soon as the window was opened, the originally quiet room suddenly became noisy, and various sounds poured into the house from the window, making it very chaotic.
Following the sound, Lu Yunyou, who had already sat down, turned and looked out the window. The window was not as dark as he imagined, but there were many different kinds of brilliance. Attracted by the scene outside, he quickly stood up and walked to the window after he had just sat down. Look out the window.
"Is it noisy?" After Ling Yun looked at the scene outside the window, he turned around and saw Lu Yunyou coming over and said, "If you find it too noisy, I will close the window."
"No noise, I came here specifically to see what's going on outside." Shaking his head, Lu Yunyou walked directly to the window and stopped.
"Besides people, we are still people," at the same time, Ling Yun sighed and turned towards the table.
"Oh," Lu Yunyou agreed softly, and looked out the window with curiosity. Colorful lights came into view. The shops and inns on the entire street were hung with colorful lanterns. Looking down, the streets were full of pedestrians. , and the escort team with flags, people coming and going, nothing like the scene that should be seen at night.
I don’t know if Hong Ying and the others have entered the city. They haven’t seen Hongyu for two days. Lu Yunyou missed each other somewhat. After thinking silently for a while, Lu Yunyou looked at the lively street scene below. Compared with the boring road, Everything in the city seemed too lively.
Originally he wanted to rest early, but after seeing the lively street scene below, Lu Yunyou wanted to go out and walk around again. After having this idea, he couldn't wait to ask Ling Yun what he meant, but when he was about to turn around, his eyes It happened to fall on a window of the inn opposite.
A graceful woman stood in front of the window. What surprised him was that the woman seemed to be staring at him, her eyes facing each other. From a distance, Lu Yunyou seemed to see the other woman smiling at him, but it was not very clear. .
After a moment, the woman turned around and even closed the window. Lu Yunyou could no longer stare at her. But when he saw the woman for the first time just now, he felt like he was seeing Lin Ruoxi. He remembered that Lin Ruoxi liked to stand beside her in the past. Watching in front of the window, whenever he asked, Lin Ruoxi would always say that she liked the scenery outside the window.
Suddenly thinking of Lin Ruoxi, Lu Yunyou suddenly felt sad. Even though he had arrived at Dilong City and his return was just around the corner, his mood became more and more depressed.
"Should we go for a walk?" After feeling sentimental, Lu Yunyou looked back at Ling Yun unhurriedly.
"No problem, let's put the baggage here first, just take the weapons and go out directly."
"Okay, let's go." Unexpectedly, Ling Yun agreed so readily, and Lu Yunyou was a little surprised.
After a while, they picked up their weapons and walked directly along the corridor outside the door to the stairs.
As a result, before they reached the stairs, the sound of a table being smashed in the hall below caught their attention. Out of curiosity, the two of them involuntarily quickened their pace.
Not long after, the two walked to the middle of the stairs, and saw two groups of people arguing below, each with angry brows. There was also an innkeeper between the two groups, who was mediating between the two parties.
Of course, there were many spectators around, some sitting and some standing. Everyone was paying attention to the two parties involved in the conflict.
Around the two groups of martial artists, cups and bowls were scattered on the floor. It seemed that they were caused by the fight between the two parties. After briefly observing the situation, Lu Yunyou looked directly at the two groups who were having the dispute.
There were five people on one side, both men and women. Judging from their clothes, they should all be ordinary martial arts cultivators. They all looked uneasy. It was obvious that those people were on the disadvantaged side.
On the other side, there is a group of eight people. They are all well-dressed and arrogant. They don't look like members of the escort agency. Moreover, the eight people are obviously stronger than the five people. They all have a confident attitude, and several of them even have expressions on their faces. Smiling, but because most of those people looked ugly, their smiles were very ugly, and they also made people think that they were not good people. Therefore, no matter what the dispute was about, Lu Yunyou was already worried about those five people.
What's worth mentioning is that the seemingly ordinary innkeeper stood between the two groups with a calm face, as if he wasn't worried at all that those people who were fighting would accidentally injure him.
"I don't care which of you caused today's incident. Since you broke the tables and chairs in the inn and affected the inn's business, you will naturally compensate for the inn's losses. Do you have any opinions?" Standing between the two groups. Among the people, the innkeeper explained the situation to the two groups of martial artists very coldly.
"We have no objections," the next moment, the shortest and fattest man among the eight people responded directly. Then he glanced at the five people opposite and said, "I wonder if they have any objections?"
After saying this, the short and fat man's eyes flickered, and he looked at the two women among the five people very directly, his eyes were unusually frivolous.
"Today's incident was provoked by a few of them because they were scornful of my junior sister. Why should we be held responsible? Isn't your inn unreasonable at all?" Standing at the front among the five, a man in his early thirties frowned. They asked the innkeeper, as if he wanted the other party to help them get justice.
"The inn has inn rules. Those tables and chairs were destroyed when you two had a dispute. The other guests present can prove that if they really caused trouble intentionally, you can go outside the inn to resolve the conflict. In that case, our inn will naturally not be involved. "Mind your own business," the voice changed, and the waiter continued: "But you are causing trouble in the inn and affecting the inn's business. Don't you need compensation?"
Then, without waiting for the five people to reply, the innkeeper pointed to the messy ground with an indifferent expression and asked: "Could it be said that the broken tables and chairs and the food and drinks on the ground were all caused by them?"
Seemingly dissatisfied with the man's questioning, the innkeeper ruthlessly used facts to make the man and his companions understand that no matter who was at fault first, both parties were now responsible.
After he said this, the man who originally wanted to confront the eight people suddenly turned pale, and then glanced at the ground helplessly.
Although it was indeed the eight people who deliberately made trouble before, what the innkeeper said was also true. They did affect the inn's business. Judging from the attitude of the innkeeper, if they can't make corresponding compensation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave here today. , thinking like this, the man's face became even more ugly.
Behind the man, his companions, two men and two women, all looked much younger than him, most of them were about the same age as Lu Yunyou. When the man asked them to compensate, the four of them were obviously at a loss. Their current situation makes it difficult to meet the hotel's upcoming compensation demands.
"How many spiritual stones will we have to pay in total?" After a moment of panic, the older woman among the five stepped forward and summoned the courage to ask.
"The cost of the tables and chairs is six spiritual stones, and the meals ordered by other guests cost eight spiritual stones." While the five people were waiting uneasily, the innkeeper took a breath and continued: "Now in the inn It is the best time for business. If you delay the business of the inn, you will have to pay an additional ten spiritual stones, a total of twenty-four spiritual stones, and both parties will pay half."
After the guy finished speaking, the look of luck on the five people's faces completely disappeared and was completely replaced by panic. No matter how stupid he was, Lu Yunyou could tell that they didn't have enough spiritual stones to pay the fee.
However, the eight people looked as usual, as if they didn't care about the spiritual stone at all. Moreover, because they saw the other party's dilemma, the eight people also looked happy, as if they were hoping that the other party would not have enough spiritual stones to pay.
"In the end, including your meal money, the total is sixteen spiritual stones." Unexpectedly, the matter was not over yet. In the blink of an eye, the innkeeper reported a larger number to the five people.
