Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 239: Fight in the Restaurant

The lobby of this restaurant is hollow, so standing in the corridor outside the private room on the second floor, you can see what's going on on the first floor.

At this time, in the lobby on the first floor, several burly men were fighting with each other. They looked like bodyguards of a wealthy family.

When they started fighting, the surrounding dining tables suffered. Many tables and chairs were overturned one after another, and the dishes and drinks on the tables fell to the ground with crackling sounds. The air was filled with the strong smell of wine and food, and it was a mess.

The customers around were panicked and fled in all directions. Some took advantage of the chaos to escape without even paying the bill. The store owner was so angry that he was jumping up and down, but he couldn't stop them.

Some people hid in the corner and watched them fight.

The shopkeeper and the waiter shouted to dissuade them, but it was no use. The two sides continued to fight fiercely.

They were all quite skilled, their punches were powerful and their movements were swift, but they didn't use knives, they just beat the other party until their faces were bruised and swollen.

Many onlookers watched with great interest and cheered secretly.

Si He watched their fierce fight with her eyes sparkling. The main reason was that she had recently started practicing martial arts again, and Ning Ji taught her every night. She had made a lot of progress now, so when she watched these people fighting, her point of view was different from those who were just watching. She analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of both sides' fights. If it were her, how would she deal with it?

Unfortunately, the police arrived soon and they had to stop fighting.

"Who is causing trouble here?!"

A team of patrol officers rushed into the restaurant and shouted questions.

Naturally, the officers on the opposite side did not dare to act recklessly anymore. They each stepped back a little and suppressed their anger.

At this time, two groups of people came down from upstairs one after another. They were the masters of these fighting people.

Si He turned his gaze towards the masters of the two groups. They were all wealthy gentlemen from rich families. The hostile looks from both sides were like mortal enemies. Behind one of the wealthy gentlemen was an old monk.

The leader of the officers was a little surprised when he saw the two masters, but he soon understood.

If ordinary people were to fight or cause trouble here, the officers would have to arrest them and give them a severe punishment, but these two masters were wealthy locals, so they naturally couldn't do that.

In the end, they were just fined for disturbing public order, required to compensate the store for its losses, and given a verbal warning, and that was the end of the matter.

The incident was temporarily settled, and the two wealthy masters paid the bills for the guests whose meals were affected, so there was nothing more to say.

Before leaving, one of the masters looked at the old monk with an ugly and complicated expression, and then he had to turn away.

The master who was with the monk watched the people leave with a smug look on his face, but when he turned to face the monk, he was respectful and asked the monk to go back home with him.

The monk's face was calm and serene, his deep eyes were unmoved, like a monk without sorrow or joy. He clasped his hands together in front of his chest and chanted, "Amitabha."

Then he left the restaurant together with the wealthy old man. A group of servants and guards escorted them. It was a big scene, and people around them looked at him curiously and talked in low voices.

They only left two managers to handle the compensation matters.

The crowd gradually dispersed, a group of waiters downstairs cleaned up the mess, and some people who were not affected continued to eat.

Si He and Ning Ji returned to the private room. Regarding what had just happened, she said, "It's definitely better to be in the private room. It's not peaceful to have a meal downstairs."

Ning Ji smiled and responded, "Yeah."

"Husband, what do you think of that monk? He caused those people to fight over this."

She had just noticed that the fight between those people was probably caused by that monk. Judging from their behavior, they seemed to be trying to win them over.

What is even more strange is that a monk would appear in such a place, looking neither happy nor sad, without any desires or demands, but he would be with these rich masters and even come with them. It is really strange.

"Maybe he has extraordinary abilities." He picked up the teapot and poured her a cup of tea. Thinking back to the monk he had seen before, his slightly lowered eyes became somewhat obscure and deep.

At this time, the waiter knocked on the door and came in, brought the dishes that had been ordered, and placed them on the table. "The dishes are all here, please enjoy your meal, my two guests."

Seeing the delicious dishes, Si He's appetite was whetted and she no longer thought about the monk.

Although the dishes cooked by Ningji are delicious on weekdays, they have their own characteristics compared to those in restaurants. It is quite fresh to eat there occasionally.

Ning Ji would pick up some food for her from time to time. The more she ate, the deeper the smile in his eyes would become.

After dinner, the sun outside was not as hot anymore, mainly because it was covered by clouds. Si He had originally planned to rest in this restaurant to avoid the heat, but that was not necessary now.

After checking out and leaving, Si He still put on a veil and thin gloves, wrapping herself up tightly. It was indeed hot to be wrapped up like this in this hot weather, but there was nothing she could do.

However, she was holding a small bundle in her arms, and the coolness in the bundle made her feel a lot more comfortable.

The bundle contained the bronze tripod.

Originally, Ning Ji didn't want her to touch this thing for the time being, but after many tests in this month and finding that the evil energy did not harm her, he allowed her to use this thing as a heat reliever.

Now her body has become a 'living dead', and this evil energy is somewhat helpful to her, at least it slows down some of her body's energy consumption. Because her body consumes too much energy, without the maintenance of spiritual essence, she will fall asleep, and the time will slowly increase, so Ning Ji needs to find some spiritual essence for her as soon as possible.

As we walked out of the inn, the waiter quickly brought the carriage over.

The sunlight was blocked by clouds at this time, so Ning Ji didn't need to hold an umbrella for her. She held the small bag in one hand and let Ning Ji lead her into the carriage.

After putting down the bag and waiting for her to sit down, Ning Ji drove the horse slowly towards the outside of the city.

Along the way, they came across some delicious-looking local snacks and fruits, so Ning Ji bought some for her to eat on the road.

After leaving the city, the carriage picked up speed and headed southwest along the official road.

Ning Ji drove the carriage at a fast speed, but it was also very stable and not bumpy at all.

In half a day, we covered a long distance.

When the sun was setting and they passed a small town, Ning Ji stopped his journey and found an inn to stay.

Since visibility was poor at night and the carriage could not run fast, he had to adjust his time, resting at night and traveling during the day.

In response to this, Si He also adjusted her schedule, because there were not many pills made with spiritual essence left. She could also understand why Ning Ji was in such a hurry to travel.

Now the effects of the medicines prepared by Ning Ji on her body are becoming less and less, and her dependence on spiritual essence is becoming stronger and stronger. Even sexual intercourse has little effect.
