Chapter 2 Burning Sugar into a Snake

"What is this place?" Zhu Jiujiu looked around curiously, couldn't bear Zhu Jiujiu's stalking, He Qi finally agreed to catch two people to make her happy, the two of them got on the rental, under the guidance of He Qi, and after a while, they appeared in this place that looked a little fun, although it was just a simple long street, but those strange people on both sides of the street made Zhu Jiujiu suddenly excited, on their faces, Zhu Jiujiu had already read the word peer, such a fun place, so that she had an urge to ask the name.

"The backstreet of the Humble Administrator's Garden. He Qi, who had a sad face, covered his ears and walked in front of her, and said without looking back: "Originally, there was a name, but it was not like a strange word, and it was the Humble Administrator's Garden separated by a wall. ”

"There are a lot of fun things, right?" asked Zhu Jiujiu with great interest.

"yes, lots and lots of things for you to play. He Qi sighed and shook his head and said, "Nine out of ten people on this street are peers, you can play by yourself." ”

"Play that, play that!" Zhu Jiujiu looked east and west, and suddenly found an old Taoist priest with a fairy face, and couldn't help but be curious, and jumped up and pulled He Qi's sleeve and shouted: "You hurry up and mess with his game and make him embarrassed." ”

"Don't do it, you'll be beaten. He Qi glanced at the so-called old Taoist priest very worriedly, although he did have some immortal-like fairy beards, but the fat on his face still betrayed his true colors, he must have been a rough man who was not easy to think about when he was young, He Qi guessed worriedly.

"No, I'll protect you. Zhu Jiujiu wished that He Qi was unlucky, where would he care if he lived or died, and unceremoniously dragged the reluctant He Qi to the front of the old stall, and swaggered: "Old man, what are you doing?"

"Who is the root of the flying mirror? Who will stay if you don't marry? Girl, I'm afraid that the thing you are thinking about will be a little troublesome. Unexpectedly, the old man didn't mind Zhu Jiujiu's rude title at all, but touched his beard, showed an unfathomable smile, and said such a thing.

"Ah, what do I think?" Zhu Jiujiu was stunned, looked at He Qi, and then looked at the old way, and then laughed with some sudden realization, and after a while, he said with interest: "Old man, how do you see it, people always have to calculate to know, isn't it nonsense if you don't count? Besides, the thing I think in my heart has already been calculated, but what people say is that what they want to do." ”

"Who said that?" Lao Dao frowned, looked left and right, and asked.

"It was the blind man who said that. Zhu Jiujiu rolled his eyes, pointed to a fortune teller wearing sunglasses on the street and said, "What do people say, it's very effective!"

"Hmph, that's nonsense, do you believe it?" Lao Dao raised his eyebrows disdainfully, took out a piece of something the length of his little finger, waved his big sleeves, squatted down, put the small strip on an iron plate, and then said: "Girl, as long as you meditate on what you think in your heart, the ancestor of Sanqing will show his magical powers on this magic weapon, if something fails, there will be demons to dedicate himself, do you dare to give it a try?"

"What don't you dare. Zhu Jiujiu blinked his eyes wide, and saw that the thing was as plain as a branch, so he naturally didn't take it to heart, took out a fifty bill, and said, "I want to see what you are capable of." ”

"Look at it. Seeing the ticket, Lao Dao's eyes lit up, and he rolled up his sleeves a hundred times more energetically, took out a match and drew a spark, and landed on the small branch, only to see the vision suddenly appeared, first a burst of yellow smoke, fluttering with the wind, and then the small branch suddenly writhed, and many thick and big branches grew out of the click, twisting and twisting, like countless stretched snake heads, this vision made Zhu Jiujiu's complexion change greatly, and he jumped up with a scream, and after a while, the yellow smoke dissipated, and the strange branch stopped writhing, but the small branch that was originally only the thickness of a finger has become a bunch of behemoths。

"This, what kind of monster is this!" Zhu Jiujiu hid behind He Qi in fear and asked in a trembling voice.

"Pharaoh's Serpent. Although He Qi was also a little surprised, he just smiled and sighed in a low voice.

"What kind of snake?" asked Zhu Jiujiu in shock.

"A chemical reaction. He Qi touched Zhu Jiujiu's little head, and smiled at the old man who was already a little moved: "I'm afraid that this move of the old gentleman has frightened many people." ”

"What Pharaoh's Serpent, I don't know!" Lao Dao's face was red and white for a while, and finally became a little ugly, staring at He Qi and Zhu Jiujiu for a long time, and sneered: "It turns out that the two of them came to dismantle the stage, and they are working in this backstreet, and the young man is afraid that he will have to talk about the rules!"

"We are just passing by, and we have no intention of offending, and I ask the old gentleman to forgive us. He Qi smiled and said: "Okay, it's true that we broke the rules, but the old man's trick is sometimes too dangerous, this thing is poisonous when it burns, although it is outdoors, it can smell for a long time, and the body will not be able to stand it, so it is better to change the way." ”

"Another way?" Lao Dao frowned and asked in a low voice, "What is the origin of you two guys, weren't they sent by the blind man to find trouble?"

"Yingyao Bao, we have also read it. He Qi smiled slightly and said: "Today's incident is just a misunderstanding, my friend is too curious, why don't I give the old gentleman a trick, how about it be regarded as an apology?"

"Since they are all from a thousand doors, forget it. Lao Dao waved his hand and said: "I don't want anything for you, the thirty-six lines of the rivers and lakes, each in its own way, this is your ability to eat, I can't ask for it!"

"It's okay, we don't eat on this. He Qi smiled, pulled the frightened Zhu Jiujiu and commanded a few times in her ear, the curious Zhu Jiujiu blinked his eyes, opened his mouth, but still held back his curiosity, and quickly ran to the small shop on the side, and after a while, he ran out with a few things.

"What is this?" Seeing these things, Lao Dao was also a little curious, what Zhu Jiujiu bought were all ordinary items, but a pack of sugar, a pack of baking soda, a pack of cigarettes, and a bottle of high-concentration liquor, he didn't understand what this young man was going to do.

"Mix granulated sugar and baking soda in an eight-to-one ratio. He Qi lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, took out the sugar and baking soda and mixed it roughly, then lit half of the cigarette ash on the ground, grabbed a pinch of the mixture, put it on the cigarette ash, and dripped a few drops from the liquor and sprinkled it next to the cigarette ash, lit a match, and threw it on it, only to see a gray-black long snake jump out, slowly crawling on the ground, so frightened that Zhu Jiujiu screamed again, reached out and grabbed the soft meat on He Qi's waist, and screamed: "I'm most afraid of snakes, you are necrotic!"

"As long as that's the case, the effect is the same, and these things don't burn like mercury thiocyanide. He Qi dodged Zhu Jiujiu's claws and said with a smile.

"This method is indeed magical, but does it have a name?" the old man sighed in amazement.

"Burning sugar into a snake is also a chemical reaction, disturb it, please forgive the old gentleman, there is nothing to repay, just send this little trick to the old gentleman." He Qi smiled and nodded slightly at the old man, and then pulled Zhu Jiujiu to turn around and leave.

"Why are you so polite to him?" After taking a few steps, Zhu Jiujiu couldn't help but say: "He is fierce, he is definitely not a good person for setting up a stall here to cheat money." ”

"Have you ever seen the kittens behind him?" He Qi smiled slightly and said: "It looks like they are all poor stray cats, although this old way is a little fierce, but the heart is not bad, I see that there are only some green vegetables and tofu in the lunch box on the side, but those kittens are eating ham, although he is not rich, but he has a heart of love, and he is a respectable person." ”

"It's a nuisance. Although Zhu Jiujiu was also a little moved in his heart, he didn't want to admit it, so he pouted and said: "You are not good people, you use snakes to scare people every day, people are most afraid of snakes, this is good, people are even more unhappy." ”

"Okay, I'll get you a few people to play with. He Qi smiled bitterly.
