Chapter 290: The People Live on Food
Mo Li said with a smile: "The people take food as the sky, of course, it is a big deal. ”
The little old man suddenly looked depressed, beat his chest and said: "Finish, finish, listen to what you just meant, that guy must be a trivial matter, and he will turn his face and deny people when he encounters a big thing." ”
As soon as he saw the appearance of the little old man, Mo Li knew that this must have been fooled by Mr. Tianji again.
"Senior, what did he say to you?" Mo Li's attitude was respectful, but there was a strong curiosity in his tone.
It's no wonder that the old rivers and lakes who can be ranked on the martial arts evaluation list can be fooled like this, and anyone will want to know what happened here.
The little old man was already crying when he spoke, and said aggrievedly: "That guy told me that he came to Yizhou, not to fight, not only will he not die, but he will also bring a lot of delicious food to the people of Yizhou, which is a good thing that has never been seen in Shu before." I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect him to say several things in a row, what sausage, bacon, and what pot...... By the way, hot pot, I heard him say that the head is the truth, not like he was deceiving people, so I let him pass, I didn't expect this kid to really lie to me! ”
"Senior, why did he say this to you?" Mo Li heard it in a fog, and he really couldn't think of why Liu He wanted to talk to this Xishu Sword Immortal about these things to eat.
The little old man stopped crying, blinked his eyes, and subconsciously covered his chest.
Seeing the little old man's chest bulging obviously, Mo Li knew that there must be something hidden in his arms, and then saw his shiny hands, needless to say, it seems that this Xishu Sword Immortal is a living foodie.
Seeing that Mo Li kept smiling and looking at himself, but didn't speak, the little old man finally couldn't hold back, took out an object wrapped in lotus leaves from his arms, opened the lotus leaves outside layer by layer, and muttered in a low voice: "I was eating happily in the customs alone, and suddenly a little man jumped down from it, and I was so scared that I dropped this piece of beef on the ground." I asked the little man to pay for my beef, and not only did he not pay, but he was also quite arrogant. I was about to beat him up, but the guy named Liu He jumped down. As soon as I saw that the leader was coming, I asked him to pay for my beef, and he told me the rest of the story. ”
Mo Li looked at the piece of beef that the little old man was holding in his hand, and he couldn't cry or laugh.
The piece of beef that had fallen on the ground had been mostly covered with dust, but it seemed that this Xishu Sword Immortal was still reluctant to throw it away, and he was like a treasure with a three-layer bag inside and three layers outside, hidden in his arms, it seems that he really has a preference for food that is far beyond ordinary people.
Now that he knows the problem of the little old man's greed, the conversation about food between him and Liu He is logical.
Obviously, the little old man had just lost a piece of beloved beef, and his dream of being able to eat a lot of food was shattered in a blink of an eye, which is why he was so depressed now.
An old man with white hair, sitting on the ground with his head down, holding a piece of beef, almost shed a few tears, this scene can be imagined how funny it is.
Mo Liqiang held back a smile and said softly: "Senior, don't be careful, he may not tell the truth in small things, but in big things, he has never broken his promise." ”
When the little old man heard this, he raised his head suddenly, and his eyes lit up, "Really? ”
Mo Li said with a smile: "If the seniors don't believe it, I can use my Mo family's true qi silver needle as a guarantee." ”
The little old man threw the beef in his hand far away, stood up and patted the dust on his body, and said angrily: "Yes, yes, your Mo family is powerful, your Mo family's true gasification silver needle is the sixth in the world, how dare I not believe it in this world." ”
I didn't expect this Xishu Sword Immortal to be really a child, and his face was like the weather in the rainy season in June, and he changed when he said it. Just now, he was respectful to himself, and he didn't say a word to his temper, so he turned his face and began to look at himself.
However, this kind of trivial matter, Mo Li naturally didn't take it to heart, he respectfully saluted the Xishu Sword Immortal, "Thank you seniors for letting me go, juniors have left." ”
"Wait!" Mo Li picked up the horse and was just about to leave, when the little old man stopped him, "Let me ask you something, why do you have to hide your identity from that person named Liu He?" ”
Mo Li thought for a moment and said calmly: "Compared to the sixth true qi silver needle in the world, the younger generation prefers to delve into the medical skills handed down by the same ancestors. ”
"You want to heal and save people?" The little old man frowned, "Then why do you still want to join the army?" ”
This time, Mo Li's answer did not have the slightest hesitation, "In the past, I only wanted to hang a pot to help the world, but it wasn't until I met someone that I knew that the real help to the world was to heal the world." ”
The little old man twisted his beard and pondered for a long time, and finally waved his hand impatiently, "What a mess, I don't understand, I don't understand." You'd better hurry up and get in. ”
Mo Li didn't rush to leave, but bowed down again and saluted: "The juniors dare to ask, why did the seniors come to guard the pass?" ”
The little old man pursed his lips in disgust, "I see that you look quite clever, why are you so stupid?" You can't even figure this out? We have food and drink in Shudi, you are here, and there is a war, what do we eat and drink? Let me tell you, the taste of hunger is worse than death, I would rather die in Baishuiguan than go hungry! ”
Hearing the reason of the little old man, Mo Li did not relax for a long time.
When the little old man saw Mo Li's reaction, he frowned and said, "Do you think it's a bit worthless to die for food?" ”
Mo Li hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
The little old man suddenly waved his sleeves, raised his head at a forty-five degree angle and squinted at the sky, pretending to look into the distance, "You yourself just said that the people take food as the sky, so this food is the world's first-class event!" ”
The wind burst out, rolling up a burst of yellow sand outside Baishui Pass, and the Xishu Sword Immortal, whose beard was white, stood tall in the wind, letting the wind blow his silver hair, but it was not moving, showing the demeanor of a master!
"Master, don't stand here, Master Mo, he's gone." Qing Ming, who had just returned from Guanxia, reminded on the side.
The little old man blinked his eyes, looked back, and sure enough, Mo Li had already galloped to the bottom of Baishui Pass alone, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"This square braincase, why don't you just leave, let's eat sand here!" The little old man kept sucking the yellow sand in his mouth, and at the same time restored his standard Trump.
"Master, why did you let them pass?" Qingming thought about it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask cautiously.
The little old man smiled proudly, "Lao Tzu's beautiful intuition tells Lao Tzu that this fight cannot be fought. ”
