Chapter 30: Consumption

After the story was told, everyone dispersed.

When Xu Guangling and the others came out of the tea shed, it was already evening.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on this street, and people come and go, talking and laughing, as if you can walk casually on this street and walk into a park.

- Here, there is no park.

"Young master, that story is very boring, not good at all. Xu Tonghui said beside Xu Guangling, "Return to the earth-level powerhouse, the earth-level powerhouse is like that, I can beat a hundred like him!"

Next, Xu Tonghui picked out many shortcomings of that story in a row.

He was right, but beyond what he said, it was probably not worth the money.

After all, it was a seven-grade family, and now a five-grade family, even if the dealer lives in a secluded place, even if Xu Tonghui is just a servant of the dealer family, his eyes will not be so shallow, and he will be aggrieved by a mere hundred and ten copper coins.

It's really that they came out this time, and the family didn't give much silver.

It's only two hundred taels in total!

In fact, this is already quite a lot, normally speaking, it is more than enough for the two of them to spend a few years outside.

It can be as little as two or three years, or as much as four or five years, and if you save a little, you can use it longer.

However, Xu Tonghui was careful.

He didn't want to return to the family so soon.

He wanted to follow the young master.

If he follows for a long time, he may become the young master's person, and even if he returns to the family in the future, he can talk to the young master, talk to the patriarch, and listen to the young master.

And if he doesn't follow long enough, then after returning to the family, he may still work for the family and can't stay with the young master.

Then ......

It's over!

The family says that it is not big, but it is not small, in short, in the past ten years, Xu Tonghui has never heard of the young master's name, nor has he seen the young master.

He heard that the young master's name was not long before he left this time, because the young master was preliminarily selected by the adults from Dayao Mountain.

If he returns to the family and he doesn't follow the young master, it may still be the same as before, and he won't see the young master for ten or eight years!

That's just ......

In short, if there are two opportunities in front of Xu Tonghui now, one is to go to Dayao Mountain and go to the legendary spiritual realm to practice, and the other is to follow the young master like now.

Then he probably didn't want to think about it, so he chose the latter.

Choose like this.

"Before returning to the family, let the young master take a fancy to me, and it is best to take the initiative to speak out and keep me by your side. Xu Tonghui thought beautifully, and then asked with joy and fear: "Young Master, why did you choose me that day?"

The patriarch called several people for the young master to choose, and he was only one of them, and his cultivation was not very prominent.

I remember that the young master seemed to just point at him very casually.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Xu Tonghui didn't even want to be selected at that time, and he believed that several other people probably thought the same way. ——How good it is to stay in the family, besides, the family is newly promoted to the fifth grade, and there may be better treatment and opportunities to stay in the family.

But if you come out, what else can you do except eat and sleep out?

However, now, it has only been out for a few days, well, not even five days, Xu Tonghui doesn't know how many times he has been happy and afraid in his heart.

He finally knew why so many clan elders had gathered there that day, and why so many clan elders saw them off.

What Xu Tonghui can't understand for the time being is why the young master failed to go to Chengda Yao Mountain in the end, and why he has never heard of the young master for so many years before?

It doesn't make sense.

No, that's just unreasonable!

"Why did I choose you that day? Uncle Xu, do you usually walk with your left foot or your right foot first?"

This question stumped Xu Tonghui.

He deliberately stopped.

Then start walking again.

The first time he walked with his left foot, then he thought it seemed a little wrong and stopped, and the second time he took his right foot first, and then there seemed to be something wrong, and the third time he took the left foot again......

"Young Master!" Xu Tonghui scratched his head.

"Yes, that's it, nothing for a reason. Xu Guangling said with a smile.

Xu Tonghui exhaled secretly.

I'm so so lucky!

"Young Master, shall we go eat something?" Xu Tonghui said.

"Okay, let's not go to the restaurant, let's go to the beach mouth to see if there is anything to eat, if there is, eat, if not, go to the restaurant." Xu Guangling said.

These days, all I eat is dry food.

And the so-called dry grain, that is, fried and dried wheat grains, is not actually wheat, but it is almost, anyway, similar to grains.

Then there is the steamed and sun-dried jerky.

As long as it's not damp, these two things can be easily put away for dozens of days.

This is a very lively beach, and there is usually no shortage of food and drink in places with a lot of people.

Sure enough, when Xu Guangling and the others came here, although it was only evening, many torches had already been lit, and a large number of bonfires were directly lit in some places.

Grill!

It is not as delicate as in the previous life, and most of them are just one or half of a large and small beast that has been processed and roasted on it.

Wild ducks, pheasants, hares, bird eggs, etc.

It's "upscale".

More of them are non-carnivorous, with roasted or boiled gnocchi and roasted potatoes.

This is the mouth of the big river, and of course, there is no shortage of local specialties, fish and shrimp.

Xu Tonghui pretended to pick for a while, but in fact, he didn't know how to pick at all, Xu Guangling saw that the stalls he picked were not bad, in fact, most of the stalls here, the barbecue level was about the same - they were all so bad.

And he went.

Fish, shrimp, eggs, and pheasants that are cooked and then roasted, etc., after sitting down, Xu Guangling didn't ask Xu Tonghui's opinion, and ordered a lot.

Xu Tonghui secretly had a toothache.

According to the young master's method of spending money, it won't be long before they have to return to the family.

What to do?

Do you want him to go to the beach mouth to carry bags to make money?

Even if he has that strength, he doesn't have time!

So sad!

Xu Tonghui was sad in his heart and smiled on his face, "Young master, this grilled fish is quite delicious, do you want to order a few more?"

"Okay, ten more!" Xu Guangling said, "Uncle Xu, you are a monk, and you are already a 'great monk', and your appetite must be a lot bigger, just eat, eat in large quantities! ”

Young master, really, I'd rather be hungry, even if I eat one meal a day!

Of course, this is Xu Tonghui's heart, and it can only be his heart's words, "Young Master, I understand!"

Call you a!

Then, while eating, he silently counted in his heart:

"Five copper plates. ”

"Ten copper plates. ”

"Twenty copper plates. ”

“......”

The young master ordered it is all expensive on this stall!

"Young master, this kind of wild bird is actually not delicious, even if it is boiled and roasted, it will be stuffed with teeth!" While eating, Xu Tonghui finally couldn't help it and began to complain, "It's not worth five copper coins at all!"

"You don't understand!" Xu Guangling smiled and shook his head.

After this meal, he has a basic understanding of the surrounding mountains, water, grass and trees, and even the entire natural ecology.
