Chapter 20:
After settling Ji Wuming and Ji Wubing next to Ye Chengwang's guest room, Bai Zhantang came down and sat with the people in the lobby of the inn.
Tong Xiangyu, Manager Tong, sat in the main seat. On the left were Bai Zhantang, Guo Furong, and Mo Xiaobei. On the right were Li Dazui and Scholar Lu. Opposite her was Ye Chengwang.
Ye Chengwang had helped to solve the problems that had occurred in the inn previously. In addition, he had stayed in the inn for quite a long time, so basically no one treated her as an outsider. At Ye Chengwang's own request, she changed her address from Heroine Ye to Little Ye.
"Regarding Ji Wuming and his brother Ji Wubing coming to our inn this time, I think there's a big problem. He must have escaped from prison or used some other illegal means to get out. Fortunately, he had suffered a heavy blow two years ago. Now that he had lost his memory, his brain was not working well.”
Bai Zhantang lowered his voice to make sure that no one upstairs could hear them.
"Who is Ji Wuming?"
Guo Furong was dumbfounded. She wasn't in the inn two years ago.
"Thief God Ji Wuming came from Sunflower Sect with me. She was brought to prison two years ago in our inn, so she has a deep obsession with us. Ji Wubing was Ji Wuming's younger brother. Compared to his older brother, he was clearly more deranged.
Fortunately, he only heard his brother talk about me and has never seen me before. Otherwise, we would be in danger.”
Bai Zhantang looked upstairs guiltily and briefly introduced the brothers.
"Wubing is fine, but why does Fateless sound so strange? Did his parents have a grudge against him?”
Guo Furong said.
"Sister Guo is right!"
Mo Xiaobei echoed.
"You have to ask his parents about this. I'm not his father.”
Bai Zhantang rolled his eyes at the two people on his left.
"It's fine, don't be too nervous. My Master Ye is here. The two of them are not a match at all.”
Mo Xiaobei looked at Ye Chengwang with admiration.
"It's nothing."
Ye Chengwang chuckled.
"You're right. With Little Ye at the inn, there's no need to worry about safety. Big mouth, make a few more good dishes tonight!”
Tong Xiangyu said generously.
"Alright, shopkeeper, just wait! I'll cook delicious food for everyone tonight."
Li Dazui replied cheerfully.
"They're all here!"
Constable Xing walked in with a knife." I have a very important piece of news to tell you. Ji Wuming had escaped from prison. Do you know who Ji Wuming is?"
"Thieving God Ji Wuming."
Scholar Lu said casually.
"Eh? How do you know?"
Constable Xing was a little confused.
"Two years ago, Ji Wuming was sent in from us.”
Bai Zhantang said quietly.
"Aiya! That's right! Wouldn't that put you in danger?"
Constable Xing slapped his head and reacted.
"It's already dangerous."
Tong Xiangyu said quietly.
"Brother Ji Wuming and Ji Wubing are upstairs now. Why don't you go and take a look, Old Xing?"
Bai Zhantang added.
"No, no, I'm busy with work. I have to go now! See you guys later!"
Constable Xing immediately adopted the strategy of running away. Ji Wuming was the Thieving God! Was the Thieving God's brother easy to deal with? He was definitely not to be trifled with.
"This Old Xing."
Tong Xiangyu shook her head." We have to be consistent. It was still the same sentence. If there was no conflict, they would definitely avoid it.”
"Shopkeeper, we all know."
Guo Furong nodded, and a wicked smile appeared on her delicate face." Besides, we're not afraid if we're forced into a conflict. With Little Ye here, we're safe!”
"Everyone, what are you laughing at?"
Ji Wubing walked down from upstairs with a smile.
"I'm laughing at him for being uncultured. He doesn't even know how to read and is so proud that he doesn't even know how to write.”
Tong Xiangyu threw the blame onto Bai Zhantang, who was pretending to be illiterate.
"How can I not know how to write! Isn't the virtue of the Tao Te Ching the virtue of success?”
Bai Zhantang pretended to be unconvinced and slammed the table.
"The spring breeze is full of galloping horses, and I can see all the flowers in Chang 'an in one day. The poem "After Enrolling in the Examination" from Meng Jiao of Tang Dynasty was obtained, not the virtue of Tao Te Ching.”
Ji Wubing opened his mouth and explained with a smile.
"No…isn't that the virtue of the Tao Te Ching?”
Bai Zhantang continued to play dumb, causing the others to laugh again.
Ji Wubing smiled and shook his head.
"You seem to have extraordinary attainments in literature.”
Ye Chengwang suddenly stood up and looked at Ji Wubing." Can I ask you a few questions?”
"Of course! Miss, please come up with a question!"
Ji Wubing immediately became confident and said to Ye Chengwang with a smile.
"If you attack, you must take. To defend and be sure to be strong is to defend the place where the enemy does not attack.”
Ye Chengwang smiled slightly and then looked at Ji Wubing.
