What was even stranger was that the old man seemed to sense Li Xiaoqing looking at him and smiled at her.
It would have been fine if it were a normal person, but the old man’s smile made people shudder.
“Little girl, why are you looking at me? Do you think my face is very scary?” the old man asked.
Li Xiaoqing shivered, then shook her head and quickly went to cook the noodles.
Seeing this, the old man found a random table and sat down.
Because of the old man, a few customers who came later were all frightened and quickly ran next door to eat.
Li Xiaoqing wasn’t angry. She continued to cook the noodles.
The old man didn’t seem to know how much his face had affected the noodle shop. He continued to sit there leisurely and wait for the noodles.
The other customers in the shop were no longer in the mood to eat their noodles. After they finished the sliced noodles quickly, they paid and left.
In the end, there were only four people left in the shop.
Li Xiaoqing cooked noodles, while Yuan Cheng sold buns, and there was a dazed old lady and an old man who scared away the customers.
Soon, the sliced noodles were cooked and served.
As soon as Li Xiaoqing put down the noodles, the old man picked up his chopsticks and ate.
The old man ate very slowly, but Li Xiaoqing wasn’t in a hurry. She stood in front of the stove and waited.
Before long, a caravan passed by and two men alighted from a gorgeous carriage.
One man was filled with arrogance, while the other man looked like a guard and had been following this man.
The man walked straight into the knife-cut noodles shop. As soon as he entered, he was shocked to see the old man with pitted scars all over his face.
“Damn, you old fart, don’t come out to meet people if you’re so ugly! You actually came here to eat noodles? Do you know that you scared the hell out of me? You can’t even afford to compensate me!”
Before he could finish speaking, Li Xiaoqing had a bad feeling.
The old man ignored this person and continued to eat.
Seeing this, Yuan Cheng quickly came forward to persuade him.
“Sir, please sit inside! As the saying goes, harmony is conducive to business. Didn’t you come in to eat a bowl of delicious noodles? There’s no need to anger yourself! ”
However, this man didn’t appreciate it at all. He actually reached out and pushed Yuan Cheng!
Yuan Cheng didn’t expect this person to push him, so he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
After his head hit the wall, blood flowed.
“Father, Mother, find Brother Ziyang quickly. Brother Yuan Cheng’s head is bleeding!” Li Xiaoqing quickly shouted.
At this moment, the old man put down his chopsticks and arrived beside Yuan Cheng.
With one hand, the old man lifted Yuan Cheng up. Then, he took out a silver needle from somewhere and inserted a few needles into the place where Yuan
Cheng was bleeding.
Soon, the bleeding stopped.
The old man pulled Yuan Cheng to sit down. Then, he took out something that looked like a paste and applied it to Yuan Cheng’s wound.
When Li Shun and Zhao Xiu ran over, Yuan Cheng’s wound had already been treated.
Li Xiaoqing also looked at Yuan Cheng anxiously and asked, “Yuan Cheng, how do you feel now?”
“I’m fine. Don’t worry! The old man treated me. I feel fine!” Yuan Cheng replied.
Other than the slight pain from the wound, everything else was fine.
“Yuan Cheng, let Ziyang come over and take a look at you! It’s better to be safe than sorry!” Li Shun said anxiously.
The wound was on his head, so he had to be careful about it.
“Hmph, his life isn’t worth that much. What’s there to worry about?!” The man who caused trouble at the beginning snorted and said disdainfully. At this moment, a chopstick flew into the man’s mouth and stabbed into his throat.
The sound of a man coughing came from the shop.
When the man’s guard saw that his master was hurt, he immediately slapped the old man.
When Li Xiaoqing saw this, she immediately rushed out angrily and grabbed the man’s wrist.
“Don’t you dare!”
In the blink of an eye, after Li Xiaoqing grabbed the guard’s hand, she swung it hard. Then, the guard flew out of the shop in disbelief and landed by the pipe.
When the people setting up the stall here saw a figure descend from the sky, they immediately understood.
“Let’s go and take a look. Someone went to Li Xiaoran’s shop to cause trouble again!” Many people ran towards Li Xiaoran’s shops.
After the old man ate the last mouthful of sliced noodles, he walked towards Li Xiaoqing.
“Little girl, you’re quite skilled in martial arts! You’re also quite strong. Have you acknowledged anyone as your mentor?”
After Li Xiaoran turned around and saw the old man, she said awkwardly, “I didn’t acknowledge anyone as my mentor, but my brother-in-law said that he would find me a very capable mentor to teach me!”
“Your brother-in-law will find one for you? Why don’t you learn martial arts from me?!” The old man said when he heard Li Xiaoqing’s words.
Li Xiaoqing frowned. For some reason, she didn’t like the old man in front of her.
“I’m sorry, but people have to keep their promises. My brother-in-law has already helped me find someone. I have to wait until my brother-in-law finds me a mentor.”
“Why? Is the mentor your brother-in-law found for you very powerful? Is he as powerful as me?” With that, the old man reached out and slapped the table at the side.
With this slap, the wooden table instantly shattered, then the bowls and chopsticks on the table turned to dust.
This sudden scene shocked everyone.
The man, who had been showing off just now, was so frightened that his legs trembled. Then, he ran out.
Without thinking, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu came to Li Xiaoqing’s side and protected their daughter.
Although Li Shun was very afraid, his protectiveness of his daughter made him restrain his fear and ask loudly, “What do you want to do?”
“It’s nothing. I just want to take in a disciple!” The old man said aloofly.
However, everyone could hear the threat in his words.
“I’m sorry, but I’m afraid you’ll have to be disappointed!”
At this moment, Luo Ziyang walked in from the backyard and said to the old man in front of him.
After Luo Ziyang came in, the old man’s gaze landed on him.
“Kid, do you know who I am?”
