Chapter 947 Give me the money!!
Sun Ming'en didn't care at all. He kowtowed three times, and Chang Qing was no longer on the table. "I know you don't like it, but I can't refuse. You are my family's greatest savior. Others may not kneel, but I can't! If you're angry, then be angry."
The maid was so focused on watching Sun Ming'en kowtow that she didn't notice when Changqing arrived at the bedside. She scratched her head, full of questions.
At this moment, Changqing had already sat back on the bed and helped the old man up.
"Grandpa, how are you feeling?"
Meanwhile, Old Master Sun's gaze lingered on the angles of Changqing's face, confirming that he indeed looked as he remembered: "My benefactor has become even more refined and handsome over the years. I never thought I would live to see this day again."
Seeing that he was in high spirits, Changqing knew that the old man must be in good health.
"My friend and I will be troubling the old gentleman for quite some time during this trip."
“My benefactor, are you looking down on this old man? You can stay here. We have a large family and business now, so a few more mouths to feed is nothing. We can afford it!” The old man was in high spirits, perhaps because he was happy to see his old friends again.
“Grandpa Sun, you can just call me Changqing from now on. Your good fortune is due to your own efforts and has little to do with me.” Changqing waved his hand.
Seeing Changqing's insistence, Grandpa Sun stopped insisting: "You saved me again today and saw an old friend again. This is something to celebrate. Xiao Cui, quickly tell Aunt Wu that we have a distinguished guest and prepare food. I want to drink until I drop! Oh, and prepare some bath water for me. I need to wash up."
Grandpa Sun sniffed himself and frowned; the stench was indescribable.
"Yes, Master!" The maid named Xiao Cui averted her gaze from Chang Qing's face, as if afraid of being noticed, and covered her cheek, feeling it burning hot. She hurriedly left, her heart filled with a mixture of shyness and unspoken admiration: What a handsome young man!
At the dinner table, glasses clinked and the old man's cheerful laughter rang out frequently, creating a lively atmosphere.
During the meal, Sun Ming'en was still worried about the old man's health. Fortunately, he did not seem weak. Listening to Changqing tell some interesting stories, he found it hard to reconcile the image of the ruthless and merciless immortal with the one who spoke in a tone similar to his own age. This was why he hesitated to call Changqing "uncle".
What frustrated him was that this "uncle" was truly treacherous and cunning. Drinking was one thing, but he also managed to establish a relationship with the old man, being recognized as his godson and a generation above him, his grandson. In particular, the way Changqing looked at him as a junior was unbearable.
He didn't dare to argue; what could he do? He was just being a dutiful son!
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, the old man was completely drunk. Changqing then left the table, saying as he went, "Godson, take good care of the old man! I'm going to take a nap!"
Sun Mingen almost exploded!
……
When Changqing sobered up, he saw several large faces staring at him with wide eyes, as if they were looking at a monkey. With a jolt, Changqing instantly sobered up.
"Little Qingzi, you're not being honest! You're eating secretly without calling me!!" A rumbling sound came from Yun Qinghan's stomach.
Zhong Baixuan helped Changqing up: "Junior Brother Qing, how long have we been meditating? My stomach feels like it's been empty for hundreds of years!"
"I could eat a whole cow right now!" Ling Yu said, clearly starving!
“This is a small town in the north of Xianwu City. You’ve been sleeping for almost a month, shutting down your five senses, and without any spiritual energy to support you, so of course you’re hungry!” Changqing rubbed his forehead, feeling like his head was about to explode.
Xie Xinyu walked in, carrying a bowl of steaming soup: "This is hangover soup, given to me by a maid named Xiao Cui!"
Before Changqing could even move, several men rushed forward, each taking a sip and drinking it all down, leaving not a drop, except for Changqing's. Were these men bandits?
The old man's breakfast table was bustling with activity. If it weren't for their demeanor, one would easily mistake them for a group of homeless people. Not a single dish was left on the table. Changqing gave Xiaocui some loose change so she could buy more breakfast, which finally filled the stomachs of the few cows.
Afterwards, the old man held Ling Yu's hand and chatted non-stop. Ling Yu was also amazed by the wonderful fate. However, after this meal, Sun Ming'en gained a few more godfathers and godmothers.
This will make them even more uncomfortable.
Standing on the street, the five of them stood in a row, looking at the wide street, and a sense of pride arose in them. They had also decided to transform themselves into ordinary people here!
"Since I have become a mortal, I should follow the righteous path in my heart. I have decided to stay in the government office, judge fairly, and relieve the people's worries! In my spare time, I will farm, grow flowers, and savor the joys of life." As expected, Zhong Baixuan chose to practice the justice in his heart. Anyone who didn't know him would think that he was a Confucian or Taoist cultivator who had come down the mountain for training.
"I'm planning to open a very, very tall restaurant, where I can listen to the people on each floor gossiping about everyday life and the mysteries of the universe. It'll be so exciting!" Yun Qinghan's choice truly put his gossip-loving soul to good use. Chang Qing was even more pleased, as the restaurant was the most lively place, and the moral principles forged in the mortal world were definitely more profound than those of ordinary cultivators.
"I want to travel with the caravan and see the world, for the sake of chivalry in my heart, for the righteousness of the people, to punish evil and uphold justice, and to do my best to restore a glimmer of light to the world." Ling Yu touched the long sword in his bosom, his gaze looking out of the town, towards the mountains and fields, towards the mortal world.
Xie Xinyu smiled shyly: "I will open a larger clinic to treat the people, experience life and death, and practice the path to immortality!"
Changqing's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately said, "Junior Sister Jie's idea is the same as mine. How about we open one together? I still need to do a lot of good deeds, to experience more of life, old age, sickness and death, and to build more good karma with this mortal world."
Jie Xinyu blushed slightly and nodded, which was taken as an agreement.
But the next instant, four hands were stretched out in front of them, as if it were their due, and they said in unison, "Give us the money!!"
Several peak masters were practically penniless at this moment. Aside from cultivation, their only other activity was freeloading meals – pure and simple! If it weren't for their sects protecting them, they would have gone bankrupt and begged for food long ago! Except… Yun Qinghan!!
Dozens of high-quality spirit crystals were taken out and sold out in no time.
"This is a small town in the mortal realm. Spirit crystals can be exchanged for a lot of gold, which should be enough!" Before Changqing could finish his instructions, the group had already disappeared at the end of the street.
A slender figure flashed by in the distance, almost like a blur, but for Changqing, there was no way he could be seeing things. He was very worried: "They've chased me all the way here. I hope there won't be any trouble. Otherwise, my mortal state will definitely be broken."
"No, given that woman's narrow-mindedness, even if we don't fight, she'll definitely cause trouble. What should we do?!"
Just as they were struggling with how to deal with the other party, a thunderous sound suddenly rang out from the sky: "You scoundrel, you really did hide here. We were just looking for you but couldn't find you, and now you've come out on your own!"
Three beams of light, visible to the naked eye, hurtled towards the town with a thunderous roar. The ordinary people in the town all sensed it and looked toward where the beams of light were coming from.
