Chapter 190: The Storyteller's Hustle
Xiaohua, who had been talked about by Chen Er, was walking leisurely on the mountain road, and suddenly sneezed a few times.
Wagging her tail, Xiaohua muttered, "I can still sneeze as a cultivator?"
Then it suddenly thought of something, and a look of horror appeared on its face.
"It must have been out for too long, and the old man was talking to me! It's broken, it's broken, if the old man gets angry......"
Thinking of this, Xiaohua trembled all over, and a white cloud appeared out of thin air under her feet to lift its body up, and flew away at an unimaginable speed.
On the clouds, Xiaohua looked sad and calculated silently: "Later, I'll say that those things in the dark world are making trouble, so it's too late to go back?"
"Do you want to make a mess of yourself?"
But just thinking about it, I immediately denied it.
"The old man can pinch and calculate, how can he fool him!"
Traveling all the way, sorrowful all the way, but he couldn't have imagined that the culprit was just the one he saved when he saved people~
Half a day later, Xiaohua landed in a human town.
Then he began to enter the town with a leisurely pace, but his eyes were cringe, and his heart was somewhat weak.
It wandered around the east and west, and finally reluctantly came to a restaurant.
The decoration of this restaurant is not very good, and the wood from the inside to the outside has a strong sense of age. It's just that it's cleaned by the store, and it's comfortable to sit in.
At the entrance of the store, more than a dozen homeless stray cats and stray dogs looked at the store with anticipation.
Because the owner is kind-hearted, he will feed them some leftovers every day, so after a long time, they will spontaneously gather here every time they eat.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the restaurant, a little with mud and dirt came over and rubbed it against Xiaohua's disgusted eyes.
Xiaohua suddenly fled.
In the restaurant, the glasses of the drinkers are staggered, and the voices are boiling.
Because there's always something ingenious and appealing. So although this restaurant is not the largest in town, it has the most customers.
Many of the things they do are a little incomprehensible to their peers, but when they attract batch after batch of customers, they imitate them, and they have a new trick.
A few days ago, I don't know where a storyteller came from the door to talk about the book a few times, and there were a lot of onlookers, so the store invited the storyteller into the store, and even removed a few tables in the center of the store and set up a desk.
Mr. Storyteller's name is Dusty, probably because he is old and has an ugly face. But he has an excellent voice, and the voices of the old and young people are imitated vividly.
There is a girl in red next to him who helps him match the voice of the woman in the story.
The girl in red is not very pretty, but her clean face always makes people can't help but take a few more looks.
At first, the drinkers thought that this was the grandfather and grandson coming out to beg for a living, but later they learned that the storyteller and the girl in red were actually a couple, so they teased for a while.
There are also sages in the world who heard about this and made up a poem with a strong sense of ridicule, and the last sentence of the poem, "a pear flower pressing a begonia" was widely circulated.
When Xiaohua arrived, the hustle and bustle and the girl in red had just taken the stage.
"What's the story to tell today? Or the Liang King who cultivated to be as tall as a hundred floors?"
Before he could sit down, a drinker shouted below.
But after scanning the circle, he suddenly said: "Today, let's not talk about the world, but the story of our Heavenly Destiny Continent." ”
There was a lot of uproar in the audience.
"What is there to talk about in the Mandate of Heaven Continent? ”
"That's it, we've lived all our lives, haven't you heard of it? I don't need you to talk about it, continue to talk about the world, did he finally go to the lame shop Xiaoer?"
"Hurry up and finish telling the story of the son! In order to listen to a story, I come here every day to drink a little wine, and my mother-in-law is going to make a fuss!"
Listening to the shouts of the drinkers, he was not annoyed, but slowly told a small story.
"Once, there was a little grasshopper who met a little grasshopper, and the two had a great time and soon became friends. When it was evening, the little grasshopper and the little grasshopper said, "It's too late, I'm going home, and I'll come back to you tomorrow." ”
"The little grasshopper wondered: Tomorrow? What is that?"
"Since then, the grasshopper has never seen a grasshopper again. ”
Everyone in the audience was stunned, not knowing what medicine was sold in the hustle and bustle of the old man's gourd.
Dusty smiled slightly, and didn't care about the reaction of the audience, just continued: "Later, the little grasshopper met a little mouse again, and they quickly became friends. But when the weather got colder and colder, the little mouse said to the grasshopper: I have to go home for the winter, and we will see you next year!"
"The little grasshopper is curious: next year?
Speaking of this, the hustle and bustle sat down, and the old god picked up a bowl of wine and drank it beautifully.
Xiaohua saw that the old man was in a good mood, so she hurriedly came over.
In the audience, a young man in white in a wheelchair nodded after listening to the story, and took out a pen and paper.
There are a lot of words to write this time, and the young man in white feels that this story is also very "big", but it is effortless to write.
After I stopped writing, I thought about it for a long time, and my eyes were full of shock when I looked at the hustle and bustle.
After a long while, someone reacted, pointed at the hustle and bustle and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you old storyteller, you actually scolded us for not knowing the sky! You tell me, I'll listen to it today, there are wonderful stories in this Heavenly Destiny Continent that we don't know!"
As soon as this person reminded him, everyone reacted, laughed and scolded together, and some even threw out the poem "A pear tree presses a begonia", which made everyone laugh.
After tasting the wine, he said leisurely: "Whether the story is good or not, let's talk about it after speaking! It's still the old rule, if the story is told well, you will reward me with two sips of wine." ”
"If it's not good, we haven't heard it?" someone interjected, and the audience laughed again.
Maybe it's getting used to it, so the drinkers and the hustle and bustle don't get angry when they listen to each other's jokes, but the atmosphere is getting better and better.
Seeing that it was almost the same, the hustle and bustle put his face on and said seriously: "Jokes are jokes, but the content of the book can be savored after thousands of years." ”
A mortal town, a mortal restaurant, how many people will live thousands of years later?
So the drinkers just thought that the hustle and bustle was playing tricks again, and they didn't do anything about it.
But the young man in white in a wheelchair saw that the hustle and bustle was about to start telling a story, so he hurriedly sat upright.
Dusty looked at the young man in white as if he was listening to a lecture in the academy, and nodded secretly.
Xiaohua, who thought that she was going to face the storm of the old man, lay at the feet of the hustle and bustle, feeling like she was going to live for the rest of her life.
Glancing at the young man in white and the cute girl beside him, he wondered: "This world has gone into decay, but why are there so many outstanding heroes?"
