It was a sunny April day.

Before the spring season had passed and the summer was in the future, the Old Master Lie had already come to this desolate Peace Prefecture. The streets were still hot and empty except for one or two old dogs lazily lying in the shade of the street with their tongues stretched out, panting heavily.

Therefore, Old Liu's beef shop didn't need yellow wine anymore. They changed to hot tea and the shop was already cold. Although people didn't like meat anymore due to the heat, there was a person in the shop as usual. They all fanned themselves with hot tea and drank a few sips to cool it down.

Old Liu didn't come to the shop, he only heard that something had happened in his hometown and he went back to his hometown. He came as a scholar from the old school, and he was entertaining everyone, but they also found a fat kid standing behind the till, which they had never seen before. He was born with a fat and white face, which was very pleasing to look at.

Chen Yuan lowered his head and did not look at the crowd. He just smiled and picked up a few white tea bowls and wiped them vigorously with the cloth, as if he was going to wipe the tea bowls clean.

Only at a place where no one could see, Chen Yuan held the cloth in his hand to block his line of sight, and silently watched the bowl of water to wash the dishes.

Chen Yuan held the bowl of water in his hand and didn't move at all. He only used a cloth to wipe the water on the outside. The water inside was as calm as a sea.

The dead sea.

Under Chen Yuan's gaze, a slight ripple appeared on the sea. As he patted the starting point, waves splashed onto the wall of the teacup. As if it was alive, it slowly began to move.

Slowly, it began to spin, as if the eyes of the North Sea were opening up. Slowly, it began to spin at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, no matter what, the water would always reach the edge of the teacup bowl and would not splash out. It was as if the water was alive and was flowing wantonly within the teacup. It was truly like a sea.

Chen Yuan's mind was clear. It was as if the heat had left his body as well. It was as if he had left this noisy shop and was extremely peaceful.

The still water in his dantian seemed to have moved.

Chen Yuan's heart finally had a hint of secret joy, but as soon as this feeling appeared, a very soft sound rang out. In this noisy shop, only the scholar and Chen Yuan noticed it.

Seeing the scholar's gaze towards him, Chen Yuan helplessly shrugged his shoulders, indicating that there was nothing wrong and slightly lowered his head. Sure enough, a thin crack had appeared on the teacup.

He had failed.

It seemed like he had not been able to control his true essence well.

Knowing the reason, Chen Yuan was not frustrated at all. After all, he was always training, as long as there were benefits, it was fine. Thinking of this, Chen Yuan Yuan's men did not stop and quickly cleaned up the rest of the tea bowls.

After putting down the bowl, Chen Yuan finally raised his head and looked at the bunch of people chatting in the restaurant.

From the clothes, most of them were ordinary people, and most of them were not very distinguished people. Chen Yuan's eyes were venomous as he glanced at the people drinking tea, and he saw a middle-aged man in a green robe, his clothes were neat and tidy, his thumb and forefinger were slightly sunken, his hair was perfectly combed, and there was a piece of ancient jade on his waist. He knew that this person had been writing for a long time, and his clothes were old and not worn out.

It turned out to be that person. Unexpectedly, this year, there was also someone who had secretly visited and investigated the situation of the people.

But, what does that have to do with me? Chen Yuan smiled and turned his head to look at the others.

The crowd only saw him looking around curiously, but he didn't seem to care and just let him look.

After drinking tea for an entire afternoon, the idle people contentedly put down two copper coins and slowly walked home. A lot less people were drinking tea and a group of people dressed in silk clothing came in, but this group was divided into several levels. The first to arrive was a plump middle-aged man with a face full of oil and water, walking casually in front of the rich servants, bringing with him a fragrance of scented sachet.

The green-clothed middle-aged man frowned when he heard this.

The fat guy walked to the counter and suddenly realized that the one standing behind it was not the old man, but a fat boy who was much younger than him. He asked curiously, "Where's Old Liu? Why is he a broken baby?"

Chen Yuan raised his head and looked at Fatty's big face. With a clear and melodious voice, he said, "My uncle went back to his hometown and left me to look after the shop."

Looking at his round face, he smiled and said, "I never thought that my Wang Da Fu would meet a little bastard like you today, so I decided to give you some benefits." With that said, he took out a small silver ingot from his waist and threw it into the hands of Chen Yuan. Seeing Chen Yuan's smile brighten up, for some reason, he felt happy and said, "Alright, let's go.

"Little brat, you should also take the money. Hurry up and cut me up with two catties of meat. The madame didn't eat it yesterday, so she has been nagging for a long time."

Chen Yuan had already scooped out a piece of high-quality beef and placed it on the chopping board to cut it. After being soaked in sesame oil, he quickly took out a piece of oil paper and started to make bread inside.

When the fat Wang Da Fu saw this kid's nimble movements, he couldn't help but grow a bit more fond of him.

When the middle-aged scholar saw that these heroic servants did not try to bully them, he slightly nodded his head in satisfaction. However, before his hand could reach out to touch a spot, his eyebrows knitted together again.

The scholar's hand paused slightly as he wiped the table, then he continued to wipe the table as if nothing had happened.

The horse's hooves were like thunder.

The teacup on the table began to ripple.

Before the thunder even reached the door, someone burst into laughter. A bold voice rang out, "Hahaha, but you made it easy for me. So you're here. Come, let's drink a few cups." The sunlight at the door was soon obscured by shadows.

Chen Yuan looked outside and saw a man who looked like an iron tower standing at the door. He had a beard and had a greatsword slung over his back. He looked like a wild bear.

Behind that wild bear were two masked swordsmen. They were as tall as two men, and as thin as two men. As they moved forward and backward, they were like iron buckets, making people feel that no matter where they moved, they would be blocked and unassailable.

It seemed that the two of them had practiced a pretty good scheme of things. Chen Yuan only glanced at them once before his eyes wandered blindly past their belts. When he saw the tiny peony embroidered on them, he had a rough idea of what was going on.

Peony, flowers, people from the Unparalleled Palace.

From the looks of it, his face was covered with white clothes. The twins of the Han family were invulnerable below the seventh rank.

Seeds of the Paeonia lanceolata.

However, the man who looked like a wild bear was not simple either.

Even though it looked a bit reckless, was that really the case?

With just a glance, Chen Yuan had already formed a huge database in his heart, which showed that this person's appearance was similar to other people he knew.

No one.

However, while Chen Yuan was pondering, the bear-like person seemed to feel that there were too many people in front and with a push of his hands, he pushed the few heroic servants down to the ground, clearing a path and spitting on the ground: "A bunch of dog slaves!"

He walked to the front of the counter and looked at Wang Da Fu disdainfully. Smelling the fragrance, he said from the corner of his mouth, "Hey, this is a sissy."
