Chapter 50 Storage Space
Mo Juren felt that it was time for him to take action. He used the Wind Controlling Technique and Shadowless Body Technique at the same time, and suddenly inserted himself between the two of them with a gust of wind. He said leisurely,
"Haha, first you took away the pawned items without reason, and now you force a gambling game on the street. Is this how you treat guests in Maoxiang Valley?"
Baturu was surprised when he found someone interfering.
"Who are you!?"
He quickly stepped back a little, and found that Mo Juren was also a cultivator, and his magic was quite exquisite. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he said with some hesitation,
"Huh, where are you from, immortal cultivator? You look unfamiliar!"
Mo Juren was too lazy to answer him, so he turned his back and winked at Jin Guang, who then said stubbornly,
"Baturu, this is Zhang Tie, Master Tie, the monk who came with me to get the storage bag. Stop playing tricks and quickly hand over the storage bag as Madam Xiang ordered."
Baturu's eyes wandered between Mo Juren and Master Jin Guang. It was unknown what he was thinking. Finally, he snorted coldly, took something out of his arms, threw it into the counter, and immediately left.
Naturally, the shopkeeper and the clerk continued to count the gold and register and sign the contract inside the pawnshop. After a series of procedures, they finally got the storage bag back to Jin Guang.
The outside of this item is covered with a fiery red case embroidered with gold thread, the same style as the one used by Master Jin Guang. Hidden inside is an inconspicuous gray cloth bag with some strange patterns on the opening of the bag.
After the pawnshop owner left, Master Jin Guang gathered his magical power in his hands, as if to demonstrate to Mo Juren, and touched the gray cloth bag to the more than one hundred taels of gold and silver that were left after the inventory.
Without a sound, the things on the counter disappeared and were put into the storage bag.
Jin Guang whispered,
"Master Tie, this is my mid-level storage bag. The internal space is fifty times larger, so the capacity is quite large. Please accept it, Master Tie, hehe..."
Mo Juren took it with a smile and threw the bright red jacket embroidered with gold thread directly back to Jin Guang, leaving only the small gray bag, which he held in his hand and played with carefully.
I saw that this storage bag was about two palms long and one palm wide. Even though it was filled with more than one hundred taels of gold and silver, it did not affect the feel at all. It was still light in the hand. It was truly magical.
Mo Juren imitated Master Jin Guang and applied his magic power. Instantly, he sensed an alternative space in his consciousness. The length, width and height were square, and the size was as big as an armchair. The capacity was quite large, and at the moment, there was only some gold and silver floating in it.
With a thought, his other hand reached out and grabbed, and a gold ingot appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Mo Juren tried it several times and soon became proficient in it, and his face was immediately filled with joy.
Seeing that Mo Juren was in a good mood, Jin Guang said timidly,
"Mr. Tie, what do you think about buying wine and treating us?"
Mo Juren smiled dumbly, took out a small amount of gold and silver from his storage bag and threw it to Jin Guangdao.
"Wine, sex, money and anger can only hurt your bones and intestines. Stop it. I'll give you one hour. We need to leave this place as soon as possible."
"Oh, okay, thank you, Mr. Tie."
Jin Guang happily took the gold and silver, put them into his bag, and then recommended them to Mo Juren,
"Mr. Tie, the bamboo leaf green snake and special insect and animal banquet at Qiuxiang Pavilion here are quite good. Since you are here, you might as well give it a try."
"Alright."
Mo Juren hung the gray bag around his waist, and the two of them left the pawnshop together.
Soon after, the first floor of Qiuxiang Restaurant was bustling with activity. Master Jin Guang invited guests to drink and asked the store owner to bring out several large jars of wine so that he could drink with the many patrons.
Master Jin Guang stood directly on the table, distributing wine with the wine bag in one hand and drinking with the wine bowl in the other. Anyone who had a little bit of ability rushed forward to clink glasses with him. Such generosity made everyone cheer and the scene was very lively.
In fact, it is easy for a cultivator to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but Master Jin Guang wants this kind of atmosphere of being surrounded by stars and being deeply intoxicated...
In a private room on the second floor of Qiuxiang Pavilion, Mo Juren ordered a few side dishes and a jar of Bamboo Leaf Green and drank by himself. Although he has become an immortal cultivator, his cultivation is too low and he cannot fast and still needs to eat every day.
However, the longer he practiced, the less interested he became in meaty foods such as blood and flesh, so he lost interest in the so-called "Insect and Beast Banquet" strongly recommended by Master Jin Guang.
Suddenly, there was the sound of light footsteps outside the private room. Mo Juren felt a little strange because it didn't sound like the waiters from the restaurant.
The visitor stopped outside the door, knocked softly, and asked in a soft voice,
"Is Master Tie here? I have something to discuss with you. I hope I can talk to you."
Hearing the voice and knowing the person, Mo Juren imagined Madam Xiang standing by the window, looking down and smiling.
How could this beautiful lady who holds great prestige and is in charge of a region come to see him alone without any followers?
Mo Juren's mind raced, and he used his keen hearing to make sure that there was no one else outside the building, then he loudly invited her in.
Madam Xiang pushed the door open and walked in, still wearing the same white dress with a red cloak on the outside. She had a dignified manner and a slim figure. She was as beautiful as a blooming camellia, not gaudy, and pleasing to the eye.
She bowed to Mo Juren and introduced herself.
"My name is Mayi, and everyone likes to call me 'Madam Xiang'. Hello, Mr. Tie. Sorry to bother you."
After saying that, she sat down at the table opposite him, her movements clean and neat, without any shyness.
Mo Juren bowed in return and on a whim, he used his divine eye technique to take a look. Wow, she really had the cultivation level of the second level of Qi Refining. No wonder people in the world were saying things like "she has the secret to keeping her youthful appearance, she is a fairy from heaven".
This was the first female cultivator that Mo Juren had ever met, so naturally he was a little curious and wanted to see her more clearly.
Seeing the magic power flowing in Mo Juren's eyes, Madam Xiang smiled and said,
"Master Tie, have you seen enough? This little cultivator of mine, who is at the second level of Qi Refining, can't you tell it at a glance?"
Mo Juren was slightly embarrassed. The flow of power from the Sky Eye Technique was too obvious and would make people feel like they were being spied on for no reason. It was indeed impolite.
So he put away his magic power, poured her a glass of wine, and covered up the past.
"I'm sorry for being so rude and making Madam Xiang laugh. My name is Zhang Tie, and the term Tie Ye is just a nickname."
Madam Xiang picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"So it's Immortal Zhang in person. I think the title 'Iron Master' is quite nice."
Mo Juren didn't know why she came, so he asked,
"Mrs. Xiang, you are so kind to come and visit me. I wonder if you have any advice for me."
Madam Xiang put down her wine glass, stroked her lips with her sleeve, and then smiled.
"Mr. Tie is really straightforward. If that's the case, I'll just speak frankly. I've always been in charge of the affairs of the Maoxiang Valley on behalf of my husband, and I'm a close friend of Master Jin Guang. Master Jin Guang has always been a distinguished guest of our Maoxiang Valley, and everyone in the valley knows him."
Then she glanced at Mo Juren with her beautiful eyes and asked doubtfully,
"Master Jin Guang has always been a loner, but today he obeyed Master Tie's orders. I wonder when he became Master Tie's subordinate?"
