Chapter 620: Chapter 261: Yu’s Trading Company Chapter 620: Chapter 261: Yu’s Trading Company Lin Jing didn’t say anything, he just smiled…
Then, the two of them continued forward.
Before long, they passed by a tavern.
Lin Jing spoke up, saying to Shi San,
“Hungry, are you?”
“Co on, let’s go grab so food.”
Shi San nodded repeatedly,
“Yes…”
“I’ve always heard the food in the city is delicious but never got to try it.
Since it’s my first ti out, I definitely want to have a good taste.”
Afterward, the two entered the tavern and sat down by a window.
As soon as they sat down, a server ca over to greet them, and Lin Jing ordered a few of the restaurant’s signature dishes.
After ordering, Lin Jing asked Shi San,
“Shi San, do you drink alcohol?”
Upon hearing this, Shi San shook his head and said,
“No…”
“But I want to try it.”
“I’ve heard people say it’s good stuff, but I don’t know exactly what’s good about it, so I want to try…”
Shi San showed a very interested expression.
...
Lin Jing nodded, then added a pot of aged wine.
The tavern was operated by mortals, and all who ca to eat there were mortals too.
The wine here was also brewed by the tavern itself, spicy on entry and with a strong aftereffect.
When the dishes were served, the wine was brought out too, and Shi San, unable to wait, poured a glass for Lin Jing.
Then he poured one for himself too.
Then, Lin Jing raised his glass and downed it in one go.
Though spicy, it was nothing much for Lin Jing.
Shi San, copying Lin Jing, picked up his own glass and tipped his head back to drink it all in one gulp.
However, as soon as the wine hit Shi San’s mouth, he imdiately spat it out with a “pfft.”
“Is this the taste of wine?
ƝονǤ0.ᴄօ
It’s so spicy…”
Shi San opened his mouth, constantly gasping “ss-haa.”
Shi San’s reaction made a young girl at a nearby table chuckle out loud.
The young girl looked to be about twenty years old, roughly the sa age as Shi San, but she was pretty and dressed in fine clothes, seeming to co from a wealthy family.
And beside the young girl, there were several middle-aged n, all of whom were sturdy in build.
But the girl and those n, including her, were all ordinary people who had never embarked on the path of cultivation.
Though they hadn’t taken up cultivation, it was obvious from their sturdy build and calloused areas of their bodies that they had practiced so kind of martial arts.
Hearing the young girl’s laughter made Shi San blush instantly.
Seeing this, a man beside the girl quickly spoke up to scold her,
“Be mindful…”
The girl quickly sat up straight,
“Understood, Uncle Three…”
After scolding her, the man stood up, raised his glass to Lin Jing, and said,
“Fellow, I apologize…”
“My niece is not well-disciplined; I hope you can forgive her!”
“No worries,” Lin Jing too raised his glass.
Following this incident, Shi San didn’t try the wine again.
Instead, he began to devour the dishes that had been served.
At the other table, the man was quietly lecturing the young girl.
“Ling’er, although our Yu Corporation has so power, it’s nothing compared to others.”
“If you’re careless and provoke others, it could lead to trouble.”
“Especially those cultivators, who might exterminate soone’s entire family over a disagreent.
It might even spell doom for our entire Yu Corporation, and you would be buried alongside it.”
“Do you understand?”
The young girl bowed her head, whispering,
“I understand, Uncle Three…”
After speaking, the young girl also raised her head to sneak a peek at Shi San, seemingly curious to see if he was the kind of ruthless cultivator.
Their voices were very low, but to Lin Jing, it made no difference.
Not to ntion their whispering; Lin Jing could even hear Golden Core Cultivators speaking secretly tower each other clearly.
Shi San, as he ate, couldn’t stop exclaiming,
“The city’s delicacies are indeed tasty.”
Hearing this, the young girl chuckled again and quickly covered her mouth, almost unable to suppress her laughter.
The man glanced at the young girl, who imdiately sat upright, holding back her laughter.
In fact, since earlier, the young girl had been stealing glances at Shi San, but Shi San, focused only on the table full of food, had not noticed it.
Lin Jing then said,
“The delicacies here are just so-so.”
“If you want to eat, I can take you to those Immortal Cities, where the food made in those taverns is truly delicious.”
“Really?” Shi San’s eyes lit up.
Lin Jing nodded and said,
“Of course…”
“However, because of your special body condition, even if we enter an Immortal City, we can’t stay long.”
Shi San nodded upon hearing this and said,
“Grandpa told about it.
I’ve been unwell from a young age and often fell ill.
It was only because Grandpa often went into the mountains to gather herbs that I gradually recovered.”
“Master, rest assured, just being able to taste the food there will satisfy .”
Lin Jing nodded, then asked,
“So, where do you want to go next…?”
Upon hearing this, Shi San put down his chopsticks, pondered for a mont, and then said,
“I’ve heard that to the north of Mo City, there is an Immortal City called Tianxin City.
I want to go there first.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing nodded and said,
“Alright…”
“Then next, we’ll head to Tianxin City.”
Although Lin Jing had been conversing with Shi San, their conversation was not heard by anyone.
Nor did anyone even notice them.
