Chapter 53: The Dark Forest, Peaceful Inn, Xu Jiujiu (Part 1)
Two days later, in the evening, Ling Bai arrived at Ping'an Town, the nearest place to the Youyao Forest.
The name of the town is taken from the meaning of safe entry and exit. The scale is about four times that of an ordinary village. Except for the lack of heavy defensive walls, it is like a small city, with shops lining the streets, and it is quite popular.
Ling Bai glanced and found that the main business scope of the shops is almost all related to soul masters, with a variety of types, such as spears and armor cast by blacksmiths, detoxification and treatment potions made by doctors, etc.
This is the so-called living by the mountain and living by the water. Ping'an Town is adjacent to the Youyao Forest, and most soul masters replenish their supplies here before entering the forest.
Looking up at the dim sky, considering that it is not a wise move to enter the Soul Beast Forest at night, Ling Bai decisively decided to find an inn to stay in and move towards the Youyao Forest early the next morning.
Ping'an Inn, a two-story wooden building with simple decoration, the first floor is used as a restaurant to entertain guests, and the second floor is set up with guest rooms.
Ling Bai took out a transparent white film from the storage soul guide. The white film was as thin as paper, and it seemed that there was liquid flowing in it. It gently covered his face. After a flash of white light, his facial features changed slightly. The dazzling golden hair and golden eyes turned into black hair and black eyes.
The fifth-level soul guide ice silkworm mask is made of rare metal rhinestone ice crystals mixed with Arctic ice silk. It comes with skill simulation and cannot be seen through by those below the soul saint level.
The area of the Dark Forest is vast, and the snake king Medusa is good at hiding. The talent of the Death Prison Spider King is more suitable for this situation than the six-winged angel, but once the Death Prison Spider King's ability is activated, it is too much like an evil soul master.
In Douluo Continent, evil soul masters are hated by everyone. Even passing dogs dare to kick evil soul masters. If someone remembers their true appearance and fails to silence them, it will be very troublesome. Therefore, Ling Bai spent a huge amount of money on the road to buy an ice silkworm mask to prevent future troubles.
"Open a standard room, another pot of tea, and two signature dishes."
The Dark Forest is one of the gathering places for soul beasts second only to the Star Dou Great Forest. There are many soul masters who come here to hunt soul beasts. In the inn, all kinds of soul masters gather together, laughing and scolding. Ling Bai went to the front desk to explain and found an empty table to sit down.
There were seven or eight big men sitting at the table next to Ling Bai. The leader was a woman who looked to be in her thirties. Her skin was yellow and black, rough, and she was big and fat. Her big face looked like a bicycle seat. She was wearing a tiger skin skirt and eating with her younger brothers.
"Hey, Sister Luo, look!"
Zhang Wu, who was toasting the boss, suddenly saw Ling Bai, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly reported to the boss Luo Mei secretly.
Luo Mei took a sip of wine and rolled her eyes unhappily, but when she looked in the direction of Zhang Wu's finger, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Although it would be inappropriate to describe a man as beautiful, that face is truly an attraction between the two sexes, so beautiful that it is almost evil.
Luo Mei's eyes revealed the excitement of a beast before hunting, and she licked her rough and chapped lips. She has always relied on her strength to force handsome boys to release her desires. When she went out and met such a top-notch guy, she was instantly eager to move. Her dark and thick thighs clamped and loosened, and she was salivating.
"Sister Luo, do you want brothers..."
Zhang Wu smiled, and his lewd look was about to come out. Everything was self-evident. As a subordinate, the most important thing in the world was to figure out the boss's intentions, and he was not picky about men and women. When the boss got tired of playing, it would surely be his turn to play for two days.
"Well... ah!"
Luo Mei was about to nod to signal Zhang Wu to do it boldly, but her mind suddenly felt like a heavy blow, as if her brain was torn open by a sharp sword. She screamed in pain on the spot and fell off the chair with her hands holding her head.
"Big sister, what's wrong?"
People around hurriedly gathered around to help Luo Mei up. She was supported by her younger brothers and sat back crookedly, just across a table from her "prey".
"Shhh——"
Ling Bai raised his index finger to his lips, and the blood-red light bursting from the depths of his dark pupils made Luo Mei's face pale. The previous intense pain like a brain explosion made Luo Mei dare not look at Ling Bai again. She immediately lowered her head and lowered her voice to scold:
"Shut up! Eat!"
Everyone was confused. Why would the arrogant big sister easily let go of that top boy? Little did they know that Luo Mei had already sweated profusely, and she was lucky to have saved her life from the hands of the god of death.
Not long after, the waiter brewed a pot of good tea, and brought a plate of stewed soul beast meat and a dish of Youyao Forest specialty vegetables. Ling Bai slowly tasted the local specialties and did not take Luo Mei and others seriously at all.
Garbage, not worth the trouble.
"Squeak--"
The wooden door creaked under the weight, and a man and a woman walked into the Ping'an Inn. Both of them were extraordinary.
The man was a tall and burly middle-aged man with a resolute and fierce appearance, and his arms were bare and muscular. The woman had long golden hair, skin whiter than snow, clear and indifferent eyes, and red lips as beautiful as peach blossoms in March. She was beautiful and elegant.
Ling Bai objectively commented on a noble woman who was truly cultivated in a noble family and her loyal guard.
The man pushed open the door, glanced at the inn environment, and said softly to the woman: "Miss Xu, the conditions in the wild town are limited, so I can only ask you to stay for one night."
Miss Xu nodded slightly, obviously she was not a hypocritical woman, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Uncle She Chong, you have been traveling all the way, please go and ask for two rooms and some side dishes."
"Yes, Miss."
She Chong walked to the front desk alone to order a room and order food, while Miss Xu found an empty table to sit down. At this moment, the store was 80% to 90% full of customers, and there happened to be another table next to Ling Bai that was unoccupied. She thought about it and stepped forward to go.
To get to the empty table, you need to pass Luo Mei and Ling Bai's tables respectively. Zhang Wu's obscene eyes have been glued to Miss Xu's face, red lips, and chest since the first second she stepped into the inn. They came from a small border town in the Xingluo Empire and were used to bullying others with their soul power.
Zhang Wu fell in love with Ling Bai, and the big sister Luo Mei suddenly gave up before the final step for some reason. Now facing the stunning Miss Xu, his desire instantly broke through his few rationalities!
When Miss Xu passed by, Zhang Wu saw the opportunity and reached out his hands to embrace the soft waist, wanting to hug Miss Xu directly into his arms!
"Your Highness, be careful!"
She Chong, who was far away from the front desk and out of reach, shouted, and Ling Bai paused for a moment with his chopsticks picking up the food.
There are good and bad things when you are out, and hiding your identity is naturally necessary, but She Chong's subconscious exclamation revealed a flaw in the disguise of the two. The heirs of a large family or a sect are generally called young masters, young masters, and young ladies by their subordinates, and your highness... is a common term used by the kings and crown princes in the palace!
