Chapter 72 Joke
Then, everyone entered the town.
Come to the station.
This inn is a three-story building with a wide space and many rooms.
Behind the inn, there is a large fence yard that can be used to park grain chariots and horses.
Dian Wei chose a room and took a good bath.
"The town is safe, so you don't have to stay up late tonight."
Dian Wei sighed softly, he hasn't had a good rest these days and can have a good night's sleep tonight.
He wanted to lie down and go to bed early.
Unexpectedly, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Who?" Dian Wei habitually held the Bachi Xuanhua axe and then asked.
"I'm Qilian."
The person outside the door replied.
Dian Wei raised his eyebrows and opened the door. The white-clothed scholar appeared outside the door with a smile on his face.
Dian Wei bowed and said, "Teacher Qi, don't know what advice?"
Qi Lian opened the iron fan and sang gently: "Can you invite me in and sit down? If you have something to discuss with you?"
Dian Weiluomo replied, "It's getting late, and I'll get up early tomorrow. If there is nothing important, there's no need."
Qi Lian was not angry at all, but instead smiled and said, "There is indeed a matter of important matters to discuss."
Speaking of this, what else can Dian Wei say?
Old Man Zheng lives next to him, and he opened the No. 5 plug-in today, so there is no need to worry that Qilian is not good for him, so he lets people in the door openly.
The two sat opposite each other.
Qi Lian paused for a moment and said, "I'll just talk straight to the point. You can see abnormalities, little brother, right?"
Dian Wei shook his head and said, "I am just a blood-powered warrior, where can I see any abnormalities?"
Qi Lian waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be so alert. I have no malicious intentions towards you. To be honest, I can see the abnormality, and I also saw the abnormality encountered by the coach Wang who committed suicide."
Dian Wei spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "Teacher Qi, you misunderstood. I really can't see the abnormality."
After hearing this, Qi Lian stared at Dian Wei for two seconds, and hesitated: "You really can't see it? Then why did Grandma Yun mention the death of Teacher Wang, you are as nervous as me."
Dian Weilian said: "I just heard that a coach actually killed himself, and I was shocked."
"So that's it, it seems that I misunderstood."
Qi Lian laughed silently, "I can see the abnormality and I also have great fear of the abnormality. Especially when I first came to this town, I heard that Teacher Wang was killed by the abnormality, which scared me so much that I couldn't sleep or eat and restlessly."
Dian Wei's mind moved and said calmly: "I know nothing about abnormality and may not help you."
Qi Lian waved his hand: "You don't need to help me. Anyway, I've come here, so just think I'm telling you a story."
Half a year ago, I came to this town and heard Yun Lao talk about the death of Teacher Wang.
It is said that after a breakthrough, the coach Wang suddenly saw an abnormality. Since then, coach Wang has run to an alley every day and smiled foolishly at the empty place.
Mrs. Yun asked him, and Teacher Wang said that he had seen a stone statue himself.
What’s strange is that the stone statue can speak, with an expression on its face and a kind eyebrow. The stone statue asked Teacher Wang to tell him a joke."
Dian Wei listened quietly, looking puzzled: "Ha, tell a joke?"
Qi Lian nodded: "Yes, it's just telling jokes. Teacher Wang doesn't know how to tell jokes. Unexpectedly, the stone statue started to tell jokes to him, and kept telling jokes, and those jokes were more funny than the other.
As a result, Master Wang seemed to be possessed by evil spirits, and he couldn't help but run to the stone statue to listen to jokes every day, and couldn't stop laughing.
Once he left the stone statue, he felt uncomfortable all over and could not think of food and food, and he could cause internal injuries.
Over time, Teacher Wang laughed all day long, without eating or drinking, and became haggard, with a distorted expression in his smile, and tears flowing from his eyes. In the end, he seemed unable to stand it anymore, so he drew his sword and committed suicide."
Dian Wei was shocked: "You mean, Teacher Wang was actually laughing to death."
Qilian: "That's not true!"
Dian Wei: "Have you seen that stone statue too?"
Qi Lian sighed and said, "After hearing this, I was curious, so I ran to the alley to take a look. However, what I saw was not a charismatic statue of kind-eyed and beautiful eyes, but a stone statue with a gloomy expression."
After pausing, Qi Lian lowered his voice and said, "That stone statue, let me tell him a horror story."
Dian Wei's expression changed a little: "You said it?"
Qi Lian nodded: "Fortunately, I have read some scary and weird stories, so I told one."
Dian Wei: "What's the matter?"
Qilian: "The stone statue was very satisfied. It spit out a round bead from its mouth and gave it to me. The stone statue told me that this bead can be eaten and can improve my cultivation. It is a reward for me. From now on, every time I tell a horror story to it, I can get a bead."
Dian Wei looked at Qilian carefully.
Qi Lian nodded, with a look of aftertaste, and exclaimed: "I ate that bead, and in just three days, my cultivation level improved one level, which was better than years of hard practice."
Dian Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "There is such a good thing, so why are you looking for me?"
Qilian: "If you can also see abnormalities, this is a rare opportunity. You can prepare some jokes or scary stories in advance, and then go to Xiaolou Lane with me to see the stone statue, and we will get the reward together.
Of course, if you don’t know how to tell, that doesn’t matter. I have prepared a lot of information here, some of which I copied, some of which I thought of, and some can be loaned to you for use. But no matter what reward you get, you must give me half of it."
Dian Wei said, "What a pity, I can't see the abnormality yet, otherwise I will definitely go with you."
Qi Lian also looked regretful and didn't chat with anything, so he got up and left.
After seeing Qilian off, Dian Wei frowned and thoughtful.
Qilian walked slowly out of the station, stopped in the distance, hid his body in the darkness, and quietly waited for something.
He waited until dawn, and the convoy carrying the grain left the Sanchakou.
"That kid wasn't fooled."
Qi Lian gritted his teeth, turned around and walked into Xiaolou Lane.
This deep alley has been abandoned and empty for a long time.
Qilian stopped in front of a weed, raised his head, and a layer of cold sweat had already oozed out of his forehead.
A huge stone statue appeared in his eyes, which was two stories high.
At this moment, the stone statue had a smile on its face, looking down at Qilian, and said, "You are here to listen to me telling jokes again..."
Qi Lian's mouth twitched, and gradually the corners of his mouth were torn apart, showing a happy and bright smile, laughing so hard that he bent over, laughing so hard that his whole body twitched, and his eyes were filled with tears.
...
The escort dragon left Sanchakou and headed north.
Dian Wei, who was riding on the horse, looked back at the town, his eyes flashing a little.
Seeing this, Old Man Zheng asked, "Xiao Wei, what's wrong?"
Dian Wei turned his head and looked forward and said, "It's okay, I just suddenly want to hear someone tell jokes."
Old man Zheng twisted his beard and said, "Then let me tell you one. Once upon a time, a landlord bought a bucket of wine and put a seal on the bucket. However, his servant drilled a hole in the bottom of the bucket and stole wine every day.
The landlord found that the seal was intact, but the wine was decreasing day by day, and was amazed!!
At this time, someone suggested that he check the bottom of the bucket to see if there were any flaws. Guess what the landlord said!
Chapter completed!
