For a ten-year-old boy, Yu Shang's kung fu is considered excellent, but when he meets Su Miao, he must have no chance of winning. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Su Miao fed Yu Shang dozens of moves outside the house, but accidentally the jade flute hit his wrist that he didn't have time to change his moves, causing the piccolo in his hand to come out of his hand and fly to a small tree on the side......
Yu Shang's short sword was extremely sharp, and Xiao Shu was hit by the sword body and immediately broke into two.
"My tea tree ......" Su Miao picked up the broken branch and checked it, and handed it to the three treasures on the side, "Let the gardener see if he is still saved." β
Yu Shang picked up his short sword and looked at Su Miao with a pair of bright eyes: "Sister Su Miao, you are really much more powerful than my eldest brother!" You're so good at kung fu, can you teach me? β
"Oh, no." Su Miao shook her head very happily, "Master has a life, and he can't pass on his kung fu to others." β
"It's okay, you can guide me when you have time!" Yu Shang was not angry when he was rejected, and he was still happy.
Zhen Yun shook his head when he saw it, is this still his little brother who had eyes above the top in the past?
Su Miao returned to the flower hall, and Yu Shang, who followed closely, took the newly replaced tea bowl with a very eye-catching eye, and handed it to Su Miao with both hands: "Sister Su Miao, please drink tea!" β
Zhen Yun covered his eyes, feeling the scene in front of him.
Song Chen directly took the tea bowl: "Your sister Su Miao doesn't like to drink hot tea!" β
"That's it!" Yu Shang scratched his head and asked again, "What kind of tea does that sister like to drink?" I'll bring it to you tomorrow. β
"I have something to do tomorrow, and I'm not here." Su Miao held her chin and looked at the small tea tree that had just been cut in half outside the window.
"What is my sister going to do tomorrow? Take me with you! "Yu Shang volunteered.
"Another day!" Su Miao turned her gaze back, looked at Zhen Shang and smiled.
"Sisterβ"
"That's it!" Zhen Shang wanted to continue to fight for a while, but was interrupted by Zhen Yun. According to Yu Yun's understanding, Su Miao's appearance of this expression actually meant that her patience was exhausted and she began to be a little impatient. In terms of patience alone, Su Miao could be the worst of the four people present.
The reason why Su Miao asked Yu Shang to come back another day was because she and Song Chen had already discussed that they would go to Nanbin Mansion tomorrow.
The matter of the immortal flower still needs to be considered in the long run, and Su Miao plans to investigate the matter of the poison between Tang Tairu and Tang Wuzhong in the near future. According to the information that Su Miao and Song Chen have mastered so far, this poison may be a killer weapon researched by Haiguo, used to threaten and control those people for their use, so it is very necessary to find out the source of the poison as soon as possible and make the right antidote.
Su Miao believed that her nose had an indescribable fishy smell of poison, and her intuition should be extracted from some kind of fish or seafood. Song Chen thought about it, so it was better to go to the fish market and ask first.
The fish market here is not the usual fish stalls on the street, but a cluster of shops built in the open space near the wharf. There are a lot of fishermen in the sea country, in a place near the sea like Bincheng, each big family has a fishing fleet, can go out to the sea to fish, small families and even civilians, will have at least one small boat, if there are fishing boats back crowded on the dock to sell their catch, then the dock will be crowded, so there is a place like a fish market. The fish market assigned each fleet a merchant vessel or stall to sell its catch.
Because the direction is too vague, all Su Miao and Song Chen can do is to pretend to be merchants, and then ask one shop after another.
Su Miao and Song Chen did it this time, but it was still the twilight dancing fish. While one of them was discussing the goods with the shop, the other pretended to be casual and asked if they had heard of a highly poisonous fish. But nothing has been found.
More than half of the fish market has passed, Su Miao and Song Chen stayed in a somewhat cold small shop guarded by only an old fisherman, this one is different from other places, the few water tanks where live fish should be placed are empty, and there are a lot of dried fish in the store.
Su Miao walked in and looked around, and asked casually, "Uncle, is there a twilight dance fish?" β
"Yes! Yes! The black and thin old fisherman hurriedly picked up two or three dried fish and walked over, "All of them are dried by the best big fish!" Add some shredded ginger to steam, it has a different taste, and it is not worse than fresh! β
Su Miao took it and took a look, and sure enough, it was in good condition: "Well, it's good!" How many of you, I want them all! β
"Good! Good! The old fisherman was overjoyed, "Now there are about forty or fifty catties here...... In fact, I still have fifty or sixty pounds at home......"
"That's it, I'll take the ones in your store first, and I'll come over again in two days at your house, and I'll come back to you then." Song Chen said.
Su Miao didn't ask the price, the old fisherman weighed a whole bag of dried fish, reported the total, and Song Chen simply took out the silver. The old fisherman rejoiced in his heart and continued to greet them: "This little brother and girl, see if there is anything else that is suitable?" β
"I'll see." Su Miao said and went to take a closer look at the dry goods.
Song Chen took a step closer to the old man: "Old man, there is something I want to ask you about, you should have been going to sea for a while, right?" Have you ever heard of a poisonous fish that can even be life-threatening when a person eats it with severe poisoning. β
The old man glanced up at Song Chen, then quickly looked left and right, and lowered his voice: "What are you asking for?" β
"That's right, we came here from the Eagle Country to do the goods, and a friend asked me to inquire." Song Chen spread his hands, "I don't know what he inquired about, I just said that I found it and brought him a few back." β
The old man said "oh": "This is not the place to speak. Well, in two days you can go directly to my house, and I'll bring you the dried fish, and then I'll think about it in the long run."
As soon as Song Chen saw the mysterious attitude of this old man, he knew that the matter was already over, so he immediately agreed, and made an appointment with the old man to meet in five days The location and time of the meeting, and even the deposit was paid.
"Uncle, I also want these sea cucumbers and fish maw!" Su Miao came over with two pockets.
"Whoa! Well! The old man smiled and went busily to continue weighing and counting the money.
When they finally left, each of them was holding two pockets, which added up to a hundred pounds. Put it on horseback, but it won't get in the way.
The matter to be inquired about had a frown, Song Chen and Su Miao no longer continued to stay in the fish market, and ran to Nanbin City after getting on the horse, it was too late to return to Zhonglu Mansion, they would stay in Nanbin City for one night.
The fish market is not far from the city and is not close, and the horses have run for about half an hour before they can see the gate of the city in the distance.
At this time, I suddenly saw Song Chen stop. (To be continued.) )
