C849 The World Is Cold
chapter 849. The world was cold.
Han Zheng recognized this person. He was a waiter at the Delight Customer Station, and he had been in charge of entertaining him.
Previously, little Two had been extremely respectful to him, bowing and nodding his head as he vividly portrayed the spirit of the dog legs. But now that he was eliminated, the waiter's face instantly changed 180 degrees.
Actually, this was also normal. After all, those who could participate in the Heavenly Court's selection were all geniuses recommended by various places, and all of them had a certain amount of potential.
They all had the possibility of soaring into the sky. Once they passed the selection, then they would soar into the sky.
Therefore, every time the Heavenly Court's selection was held, all the inns on Profound Yellow Island would open their doors to the participating geniuses, and even try their best to rope them in.
They would use the best conditions to receive them, and all of them were free of charge.
And their goal was naturally to produce the geniuses who passed the selection. Then this kind of small favor was worth it.
This was just a little bit of fun. They were all taking advantage of the fact that these geniuses were still very weak and did not have any status to give a small favor. With such an adult's love there, the reward would be incomparably huge.
However, there were some things that were also extremely cold. Once they failed, it would immediately be another type of treatment.
And this kind of reality was vividly portrayed by this waiter in front of him at this moment. He had a straight face and cold eyes. He looked as if he was extremely displeased when he saw Han Zheng's expression.
This kind of treatment naturally made Han Zheng very uncomfortable, but he knew that he had failed the election. So it was normal for others to look down on him. It was just that being looked down upon by a waiter like this was really unpleasant.
"Why are you still living here?" As soon as the waiter came up, he acted like an old man and directly asked.
Han Zheng frowned deeply, but still said, "I will move out immediately."
"Not immediately, but immediately now. Immediately, understood? " Little Two didn't give Han Zheng any chance at all. He put his hands on his waist and raised his voice by a few octaves. His eyes were full of disdain and aggressiveness. "I say, why are you so shameless? You don't have any self-awareness at all. Without strength and talent, why did you come to participate in the Heavenly Court's selection? You simply don't know what you're talking about. "
"Why don't you take a piss and take a look at your own character? I knew it was impossible for you to pass the selection at first glance. Sure enough, as I expected, mud is mud. No matter how you support it, you won't be able to support the strong."
"All these years, you've been freeloading in our Delight Inn. After serving us well for so long, it really feels like you've eaten sh * t. Your father has tolerated you for a long time. Get lost right now, or else your father will beat you out of here."
Previously, the waiter did not say that. Previously, the waiter had a flattering expression on his face every day. He tried to curry favor with Han Zheng in all kinds of ways, all kinds of flattery, and all kinds of good words.
But now?
This expression made Han Zheng smile bitterly in his heart.
He also didn't want to argue with a waiter. Since there was nothing to pack anyway, he would just leave.
Seeing that Han Zheng had given in, the waiter revealed a proud smile on his face.
However, at this moment, a voice sounded. "How many divine stones do you live for a year?"
"Who?" When he heard this sudden voice, the waiter also jumped in fright. Since when was there another person?
Han Zheng was also slightly shocked. Since when did he not know about anyone?
Both of their eyes swept across the place and fell upon a figure. It wasn't anyone else. It was Qin Xiao.
In fact, Qin Xiao had been here the whole time, but the two of them couldn't see him.
"When did you appear?" The waiter looked at Qin Xiao with vigilance. However, he did not find any powerful aura on Qin Xiao, which meant that the person in front of him should not be a powerful expert.
Thinking of this, the waiter felt a little relieved.
Qin Xiao casually said, "I just came. How many divine stones do you live for a year?"
"Hmph hmph, divine stones?" The waiter immediately sneered, "Foreign. I don't know the market price. We came to the Great Yue Lai Inn, which is one of the best inns on the Mysterious Yellow Island. This courtyard... It's a heaven-grade inn, and its price is very high. One year. That was not something a Divine Stone could afford. One Divine Crystal per year. Do you know?"
"One Divine Crystal per year?" Qin Xiao frowned slightly. One divine crystal was equivalent to one hundred million divine stones. Such a price was really high.
One should know that an ordinary Four Step Heavenly God wouldn't have as much wealth as 100 million divine stones, but living here for a year would cost 100 million divine stones. In other words, an ordinary Four Step Heavenly God wouldn't be able to live for a year.
But to Qin Xiao, it wasn't a big deal. He casually threw out 100 divine crystals to the waiter and said, "Then stay in this room for 100 years."
The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw the hundred divine crystals in his hand. Someone who could casually take out a hundred divine crystals. That was definitely not a small figure.
The waiter naturally did not dare to offend such a figure and immediately started to flatter him with a smile. He bowed and said: "Good, good, good. Customer, please come in. Please come in. If you need anything, just tell me. "
After saying that, the waiter immediately changed his face. He glared at Han Zheng and scolded, "Why aren't you leaving yet? Why are you still staying here? Get lost, hurry up."
As he spoke, the waiter impatiently rushed Han Zheng like he was chasing a chicken.
"Wait, who told you to chase him away?" Qin Xiao shouted coldly, and his face darkened slightly.
"Ah?" Hearing what Qin Xiao said, only then did the waiter stop and look at Qin Xiao with a puzzled expression.
Han Zheng also looked at Qin Xiao with a puzzled look. What did this mean?
Qin Xiao faced him with a cold expression. Little Two said: "This is my friend, so he naturally lives here as well. I paid for him on his behalf. What? You can't stay at Yuelai Tavern even though you have god crystals? "
Boom!
Little Two felt a sudden clap of thunder exploding in his chest.
However, he had only seen people speak human language. What the hell was this nonsense? His attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I didn't know that Young Master Han was a friend of the guest, so I offended you just now. I hope you are magnanimous enough to not lower yourself to my level. Look at this lowly one's foul mouth. You deserve to be beaten, you deserve to be beaten."
As he said this, the waiter even slapped his own ears and melon seeds. There was also the arrogance from earlier. At this moment, he was a complete lackey.
Qin Xiao was too lazy to argue with this kind of person. He waved his hand at the waiter and said: "Go down. If you have nothing to do in the future, don't come and disturb us. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand." The waiter immediately bowed and bowed, then quickly left.
After sending the waiter away, Han Zheng said with a grateful expression: "Thank you senior for helping Han Zheng out of his predicament. Han Zheng really doesn't know how to repay such a great kindness. However, Han Zheng has already been eliminated. There's nothing much to stay here anymore. Leaving is the best choice for me. "
"It's just that I have caused you to spend a lot of money. Han Zheng felt really bad for spending a hundred divine crystals for Han Zheng in vain. I'm afraid that I won't be able to repay such a great favor. "
Qin Xiao walked to a stone table in the courtyard and sat down. He waved his hand and some wine appeared on the table.
Han Zheng frowned slightly. He didn't quite understand what senior meant, but he still walked over and sat opposite of Qin Xiao.
"Have you thought about passing the selection, becoming a disciple of Heavenly Court Island, and becoming a powerful expert?" Qin Xiao poured himself a glass of wine and said with a faint smile.
Han Zheng's heart was shaken. How could he not have thought of this?
He had come here with this belief from the very beginning. He wanted to pass the selection of the Heavenly Court and join Heavenly Court Island. He wanted to become a fish that jumped through the dragon gate and ascend to a higher position.
Once he joined the Heavenly Court Island, his fate would completely change. Everything he wanted could be realized now.
However, all of this was just a fantasy to him. Now, this fantasy had been destroyed.
Therefore, when Qin Xiao brought this up again, Han Zheng felt incomparably bitter in his heart. He shook his head helplessly and said with an embarrassed expression. "I won't hide it from senior. Han Zheng's talent is dull, and he really doesn't have any potential to rise. I have already been eliminated, and I was eliminated in the third round. This is truly a joke to Senior. "
"My path has already come to an end. No matter how many illusions I have, they will no longer exist."
Qin Xiao chuckled and shook his head. "No, your path hasn't come to an end yet. Your battle isn't over yet. There is still hope for everything."
"What?"1
Han Zheng was stunned, as if he had been electrocuted. He stood up in shock and looked at Qin Xiao, puzzled. "Senior, forgive this junior for not understanding what you mean. I have already been eliminated. I don't even have the qualifications to participate in the competition. Why isn't it over yet? "
"I wonder where the hope that senior spoke of came from."
Qin Xiao did not answer immediately. Instead, he drank a cup of wine and slowly said: "If I give you a chance to revive and participate in the competition, do you think you will have the chance to take first place in the selection competition?"
What? A chance to revive in the competition? What was this? He had never heard of it before.
First place in the selection competition? How was this possible?
He was eliminated in three rounds. There were millions of people stronger than him in this selection, how could he be the first? The difference was too great, it was completely impossible.
Such a thing... Han Zheng didn't even dare dream about it.
Therefore, Han Zheng looked at Qin Xiao with a strange expression, totally not understanding the meaning behind Qin Xiao's words.
Qin Xiao also knew that Han Zheng wouldn't be able to believe his words for a moment, so he said, "You will know very soon."
You will know very soon?
Han Zheng was still confused. What did this mean?
What was the background of this senior?
Boom!
A supreme divine might suddenly descended, and a towering figure descended from the sky, landing in the courtyard.
It was a dignified old man. His body was covered with incomparably sharp aura.
Han Zheng immediately knelt down when he saw who it was. "Greetings, Expert!"
It was obvious that an Expert had descended in front of him. Furthermore, this Expert was the one who presided over the selection battle of the Divine Spirit Heavenly Court. Therefore, Han Zheng naturally knew who this Expert was.
At this moment, Han Zheng was also in fear and trepidation. He knelt down on the ground, and waves of emotions were stirred up in his heart. Each and every one of his thoughts was incomparably complicated.
