Chapter 327: Three Visits to the Barbecue Shop

~8 min read 1,494 words

"Are you saying there's a barbecue shop in Yanjiang County that can strengthen yang, and it's this one?"

"That's right, hurry up and get in line. I thought we came early enough, but I didn't expect we still need to queue!"

"This shop closed three months ago and has now reopened. Business is even better than before. I came here once during the Spring Festival, and the taste was quite good!"

"So, the whole shop went out for training and came back with a big harvest?"

"That should be the case."

"I don't know if we can eat it today. I heard some people have been queuing for several days and still haven't reached their turn."

"What a hot business!" Standing upstairs to watch in the past, he didn't feel much, but standing in front of the barbecue shop, Shi Huagu truly felt what kind of hot business this was.

Their Jiuyou Sect had many businesses, but none of them had a customer flow that could be exaggerated to this extent.

Queuing from the entrance, all the way to the entrance of the shop next door, directly blocking the door of the shop next door.

The shop next door wasn't annoyed either. When the people in line were impatient, they would come to their shop to eat, and their business was actually better than before.

Huo Soul Transformation transmitted his voice: "It is said that this shop used to have a delivery service, but now the dine-in business is too busy to handle, so this service has been removed."

"Originally, Zhou Shan and I wanted to taste how it was, but we couldn't even queue up, so we could only ask customers who had eaten it nearby about the situation."

Shi Huagu snorted coldly and was about to break into the shop: "Forget your identity, do we still need to queue?"

Two Integration stage cultivators and one Body Integration stage cultivator—this was enough to form a second-rate sect. First-rate sects would respectfully invite them in when they saw them.

It was just a barbecue shop, not the headquarters of the Heavenly Court Sect.

"Someone is cutting in line!"

"Eh, do you three know the rules!"

"No upbringing!"

The people queuing behind saw the three walking inside and cursed loudly. Shi Huagu and the three turned a deaf ear. At this moment, a beautiful figure blocked the three.

"Stop right there, don't you know you need to queue?" Qin Yanyan stood at the entrance, her eyes filled with anger. Everyone was queuing, so why were they the only ones not following the rules?

Qin Yanyan didn't know the three. At that time, Huo Soul Transformation had been hiding in the dark, and only Lu Yang had noticed his existence.

Shi Huagu was about to flare up when he heard Huo Soul Transformation hurriedly transmit his voice: "My lord, this is the reincarnation of Sect Master Qin, Qin Yanyan."

"What?" Shi Huagu was shocked. Qin Haoran had been the Sect Master of the Jiuyou Sect for nine hundred years. Although he had fallen, he still had prestige in the sect.

Qin Haoran's means and cultivation were both above his own. For this former Sect Master, Shi Huagu had a bit of respect.

"It seems the Heavenly Court Sect already knows we have arrived here and deliberately sent Sect Master Qin's reincarnation to block us!"

"Is it hinting to us that this is the territory of the Heavenly Court Sect, and since we have arrived here, we must follow the rules of their Heavenly Court Sect?"

"And letting Sect Master Qin's reincarnation maintain order here means that no matter how big your background is, in front of their Heavenly Court Sect, it's nothing more than this?"

Shi Huagu was such a smart person that he soon guessed the considerations behind it.

He didn't dare to offend the Heavenly Court Sect. The other party came from ancient times and had a rich foundation. At the very least, there was one Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, and there might even be several, which was not something he, a Body Integration stage cultivator, could afford to provoke.

"Queuing it is!"

The three high-level members of the Jiuyou Sect queued at the end of the line, queuing until the middle of the night. Seeing that there were only four or five people left in front, Qin Yanyan poked her head out at the entrance: "Sorry, we are closing."

Shi Huagu's face was livid, but he didn't dare to flare up.

"Hmph, come back tomorrow!"

The next morning, before the barbecue shop opened, Shi Huagu brought his two subordinates to the entrance of the barbecue shop.

He didn't believe that he still had to queue in broad daylight?

The big door of the barbecue shop opened, and Chief Constable Wei sat inside, talking and laughing with Lu Yang.

"Congratulations, Chief Constable Wei, no, now it should be Chief Constable-in-Chief Wei!" Lu Yang laughed. After they killed the county magistrate, the Chief Constable-in-Chief was promoted to county magistrate, and Chief Constable Wei succeeded him, saving more than ten years of time, which could be called a step to the sky.

Chief Constable-in-Chief Wei was beaming: "What are you talking about? This Chief Constable-in-Chief sounds majestic, but I'm exhausted every day. The monthly salary is probably not as good as the daily income of your barbecue shop."

Lu Yang smiled without saying a word; this was a fact, and he couldn't answer it.

Chief Constable-in-Chief Wei didn't dwell on this topic too much and continued to sigh: "I was promoted to Chief Constable-in-Chief, and it's also thanks to the credit of catching people in your barbecue shop. I still remember that a few friends of yours came to the shop to eat, gathered to fight, and were caught on the spot. They were locked up for a few days. Later, the Decayed Sect was destroyed, and the membership list was made public. Those two people who gathered to fight were both from the Decayed Sect!"

"Little Shopkeeper Lu, you have to be careful when making friends. This eye for people is not good. It's so dangerous. Maybe they targeted you because they wanted to use you as a sacrifice for the Decayed Sect!"

Lu Yang laughed loudly, saying directly that he would be careful when making friends in the future.

"Your barbecue shop has been open for more than half a month, but unfortunately, no criminals have come here to throw themselves into the net. If there are any blind ones who come here, it would be best if they were members of the demon sect, so that I, this Chief Constable-in-Chief, can sit firmly in my position."

Chief Constable-in-Chief Wei realized he had said the wrong thing and shook his head with a smile: "Look at what I'm saying, as if I'm cursing you for having a demon sect here."

At this time, Chief Constable-in-Chief Wei noticed the three Shi Huagu at the entrance and asked curiously: "Are those three at the entrance your friends?"

"Where?" Lu Yang turned his head, and the three Shi Huagu had long since disappeared.

"No one?"

"Maybe they were just passing by."

"What a Heavenly Court Sect, talking and laughing with the righteous path, and the other party is still a Chief Constable-in-Chief who wants to catch the demon sect. Is this showing us their means?" Shi Huagu had dealt with imperial government officials many times and knew that at the level of Chief Constable-in-Chief, there would be a token in hand. If the Chief Constable-in-Chief encountered an enemy he couldn't deal with, he would crush the token, and there would naturally be cultivation powers to help.

"My lord, what should we do?"

"Queue up tonight!"

"We have been squatting here for more than half a month, how come the people from the Jiuyou Sect haven't come over yet?" Meng Jingzhou was puzzled. He felt that the people from the Jiuyou Sect should have come.

"Big niece, you guard the entrance every day, have you seen anyone like the Jiuyou Sect?"

Qin Yanyan shook her head innocently. Although one or two unreasonable people occasionally wanted to break in, after she said two words, they obediently went to the back to queue. The Jiuyou Sect shouldn't be so reasonable.

Lu Yang was also strange. As long as the Heavenly Court Sect he made up had some knowledge of ancient times, they should believe it. He felt that there should be such people in the Jiuyou Sect.

Since they believed in the existence of the Heavenly Court Sect, they would definitely send someone over.

"Wait a little longer."

At night, the three Shi Huagu learned their lesson and came to queue early. This time, they were lucky, and there were only twenty or so people in front.

After waiting for a long time, it was finally their turn.

"Three catties of lamb skewers!"
