Flower Demon’s Inn Flower Demon's Inn Chapter 10.1

* Ranked first/top scorer in the imperial official examination

The corner of Shao Zi’s mouth quivered and she tried to restrain smiling. This is a model example of not wanting to become fat, but cannot avoid being fat. She looked at Scholar on the other side, it’s obvious he was trying to not smile.

Little White Snake was angry, “After a year of not eating meat, I was finally able to return back the figure, really was embitter.”

Shao Zi doesn’t know how to coax her and increasingly became interested in the course of events, “Then after that?”

Right now it’s like form with shadow (inseparable). Arranged for the two of them to rest in one room and there was no opposition on it. Dragon G.o.d like this can be unexpectedly calm for many years. Saying he was generous can be so, saying he was condescending can be so, but in the end it resulted in being an accomplice like this. Hold on, this is not a repertoire of teacher and disciple. Is this a repertoire of deep love that surpa.s.sed the barriers of creature tribes?

Little White Snake spoke up, “I already have experiences. If he became anonymous and does not pay attention, then I will help him with several good deeds. Slapping the rain and extinguishing the mountain fire is within the small range and to me still leaves enough strength to spare. Occasionally would take the deed of helping others as a form of happiness. Helping out little demons and helping him freshen his reputation more and more.”

Scholar cannot restrained it anymore and asked, “After that then what?”

“After that…He still did not appeared, but I did not wait for it anymore. Considered borrowing his reputation to do good deeds. But one day, I was being a good Samaritan by helping out a little demon carry the remains (of corpse) across the river and then was chased by others.”

Shao Zi was a bit nervous, “Who was that?”

“The fearful enemy of the dragon tribe, mermaids.”

Scholar understood and nodded, “Merfolk are often underwater and have conflicts with the dragon tribe in the deep waters, resulting in two formidable forces in the ocean. You transformed into the figure of Dragon G.o.d and was around the water surface, so they saw and immediately gave chase. That is something easy to understand.” Seeing that Shao Zi was about to catch his tail, he immediately pondered for a bit and then seriously said, “This is following what the books have said.”

Shao Zi secretly snorted at him, only ghosts would believe.

Little White Snake said, “Right ah, at that time I was about to suffer, yet did not expect to see Dragon G.o.d appeared. I have disturbed him for one hundred and thirty years, but was never able to meet him. Right now being able to meet, I was almost scared to foolishness. The merfolk are powerful like this, but he did not furrowed his brows one bit and was able to defeat and chase all away.”

Shao Zi smiled, “After that, you smoothly hugged his thighs and ask him to be your teacher?”

Little White Snake sighed heavily, “No, he said he does not accept disciple. How can I let him go like this and immediately followed from behind.”

Shao Zi finally understood. To summarize, this was the path on acquiring a teacher of foolish Little White Snake. She continued to ask, “Then how come he was injured and came here?”

Little White Snake scratched head, “Ah…This matter…The people of dragon tribe said the future heir of the Dragon King cannot bring along a snake and wanted to toss me out. After that, I stealthily withdrew and ran away, but was discovered by Dragon G.o.d and chased. Hide yet cannot hide. After that, one day a demon told me that there was news of Dragon G.o.d asking to leave the dragon tribe and such was discovered by the merpeople. The Mermaid King wanted to bring one thousand merfolk to chase and kill. When I’ve heard the news, I immediately transformed into Dragon G.o.d and lure them to leave. But cannot expect him to appear. After that, we broke through the blockage and escape, running until we discovered this inn.”

Scholar said, “Being able to escape the blockage of a thousand mermaid soldiers, despite being injured, such was not easy.”

Shao Zi has never fought with merpeople, and only heard of their infamous fighting. Little White Snake was truly courageous. Dare to go by herself to mislead the merpeople. Yet, Dragon G.o.d does not blame for the issue and did not leave her. The voice next to the ears was originally calm became loud and the arm was hugged by her, “Jiejie! Do not shoo us away and every day make food to help us. After Dragon G.o.d’s injuries have healed, I will give you my three thousand years of cultivation.”

Shao Zi heard the story from beginning to end. She was even more scared. This means being in conflict with mermaid? Merpeople’s personality are quite brutish and if it unfortunately leads to misfortune, then the inn will not remain. Thinking up to here, she suddenly breathed in the cold air, “It’s over, the talisman that Expert gave me, I still haven’t finished drawing it.”

Finished speaking, she grabbed tightly Scholar to pull outside, “Help me out.”

“Miss Shao Zi, I am only a scholar that cannot truss the chicken*.”

*His way of saying he’s a mere, weak mortal.

Faking, faking again, Shao Zi glared angrily at him, “Continue to speak, I’ll let the demons eat you.”

Scholar was silent.

After taking the cinnabar, stirring it until red, and going out to the courtyard, she saw Scholar was carrying a ladder and climbed up very slowly. She wanted…to beat him up…

Scholar climbed up to the roof and suddenly sniffed a fishy smell coming toward. He lifted head to look afar and the horizon has already darkly redden half the sky as the places were filled with evil tendencies/energies. Faintly bending the ear, he immediately heard the cluttering sounds of weapons. Concentrating to sense it, he smelled a faint floral fragrance and turned head to look. The face of Shao Zi was close in front as she concentrated on looking at the sky afar.

Even though Shao Zi’s powers are not strong, the evil energy on the merpeople were quite deep that even she felt it. Her whole body trembled and she constantly urged, “Draw it a bit more quickly, they are about to enter the town.” Finished speaking, she saw that Scholar was lowering his head while covering his nose. She pushed him, “Innkeeper, you focus a bit more!”

“Oh…take it easy, Shao Zi, I want to discuss a matter with you.”

“Innkeeper, speak.”

“You mustn’t continue making the special nourishing tonic soup anymore.”

Shao Zi suddenly understood, “You did not say and I almost forgot. After finished drawing will make it immediately. Innkeeper, you don’t have to specially remind me.”

Scholar really wanted to crawled in the corner of the walls and gnaw on dry rations…

Shao Zi thought that finishing the drawing at least the figure would take two hours. Cannot expect that Scholar only needed to glance over and already has drawn half of it, causing her to be surprised. If it wasn’t for the difference between the voices of Scholar and Expert, she almost thought they were one person.

The horizon shone on the earth and the roof was still the same like any day. Cannot distinguish any boundary. Within Shao Zi’s eyes, this was an extremely large painting of a celestial creature that one has never seen before. The last drop of the cinnabar fell into the celestial creature and immediately heard the gentle roaring. The celestial creature suddenly flew up. It was tall and erect within the reaching of the clouds. While squatting on the roof, the eyes suddenly shone brightly and majestic presence felt in all eight directions.

The feeling of safety suddenly enveloped!  Fu
