Chapter 10: Overlord's Meal
Xiling City is one of the largest cities within a radius of thousands of miles, and the other is the Pivot City next door. Therefore, this radius of thousands of miles is also called Zhongling Domain.
With such a large city, the city is naturally prosperous. The road was wide enough for three carriages to pass side by side. The road is lined with a variety of shops. Or a steamed bun shop, a small noodle shop, or a silk shop, a blacksmith shop. The old man with the sugar gourd stick was shouting and shouting, and the innocent children were laughing and playing in the alley, outlining a piece of national peace and security.
"Wow, that's so lively! Is this a human city?" exclaimed as Yuebai looked curiously at the busy streets.
Yuebai, who used to stay in the courtyard and sleep all day long, where has he seen such a prosperous scene?
Xiaoice Silkworm Ice Dream lazily lay on his shoulder, enjoying the warm sunbath. Looking at its ice-crystal-like body, I'm afraid it will melt in the sun.
It's breakfast time, and there's a long queue outside a steamed bun shop. The rich fragrance emanates from the steamer, and immediately attracts the moon white.
"Is this human food, it smells so good!"
He has been eating some shriveled coarse grains for the past few days, and as a real foodie, he has long been about to vomit. Smelling this fragrance at this time, where can he stand it?
On the other hand, Ice Dream is still calm in front of food. Seeing Yuebai's greedy cat appearance, he secretly despised it in his heart. But if it's a mulberry leaf instead of a bun, then it will definitely take Yuebai as a lifelong example!
"Boss, here are three big meat buns!"
"Okay! Six cents in total. ”
The team moved forward little by little, and soon arrived at Yuebai, who was indulging in the scent of steamed buns. He subconsciously followed the example of the previous man and shouted, "Boss, here are three big meat buns!"
"Okay!"
The boss quickly wrapped three steaming meat buns in oiled paper, handed them to Yuebai and said, "Take it, it's just baked." ”
"Wow!
Yuebai excitedly took the oiled paper wrapped in the meat bun and immediately couldn't wait to open it. The oiled paper was ripped and creaked, revealing a large bun with white flowers immediately.
"Ahh
Without saying a word, Yuebai immediately took a bite of it. The teeth instantly bit through the thin outer skin, and the delicious meat juice rushed out, stimulating Yuebai's taste buds.
"Hmm~ good times. ”
Seeing that Yuebai was enjoying eating, the owner of the steamed bun shop was naturally extremely happy. Seeing what you do is recognized by others makes you feel satisfied.
In a few clicks, the three palm-sized buns all entered Yuebai's belly.
"Ah~hiccup~~~" Yuebai's belly said that it was very satisfied.
However, just when Yuebai was about to leave, the palm of the owner of the bun shop stretched out to Yuebai, and his four fingers flipped upward, making a movement that a person could understand. However, Yuebai was not human, so he naturally looked at him blankly, his eyes innocent.
The boss was already a little bruised, and said impatiently: "A total of six yuan." ”
"Huh?"
Only then did Yuebai remember, it seemed that everything in the human world needed money.
"Ahh
Yuebai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No......, no! I don't have any money. ”
"You still have to eat if you don't have any money!"
The boss was immediately angry, and he was about to scold, and then call a few guys in the store to beat Yuebai severely. A middle-aged woman in the shop said, "Child, look at your face, it's from outside, right?"
"How can you all see my face... ”
Yuebai thought so. Although he looks like an ordinary person, his snow-white skin is rare in the city. As long as it is a resident of the city, you can see that the moon white is from outside.
But since they all asked, and it was in this embarrassing situation, Yuebai had no choice but to nod honestly.
"It's because you're in a hurry to go out, and you haven't brought enough coils, right? Xianggong, I think this kid is pitiful, so it's better to let him do some work in the shop, right? It just so happens that the firewood hasn't been chopped today, and seeing that this kid is carrying a firewood knife, he should have chopped firewood before, so let him chop, and he should have returned the money for this bun. ”
The relationship between the couple seemed to be very good, and the boss gradually calmed down after hearing this.
"Okay. Boy, you're in luck. If the wood isn't chopped properly, you'll take your hands off!"
Yuebai immediately nodded hurriedly like a chicken pecking rice.
"Ah Song, send this child to the firewood room. ”
A guy in the store nodded and motioned for Yuebai to come with him. Yuebai glanced at the middle-aged woman gratefully, if it weren't for her understanding, I'm afraid someone would be unlucky today. Of course, this person is not Yuebai, but this boss.
Even if he was the first to lose, he couldn't just stand there and let people beat him, right? Fists are often too direct, but they are always effective.
This boss is a bun shop, but he looks a little thicker than ordinary people. Even with those guys, Yuebai can easily knock them down with one hand.
However, this kind of thing can not be done, and Yuebai naturally wants to avoid it as much as possible. He has no interest in being a street bully that everyone avoids. And if it attracts some human powerhouse and finds out that he is a demon clan, and he is still committing murder in public, he may come to subdue the demon and subdue the demon.
"Chop all this firewood, and you're good to go. After Ah Song finished speaking, he hurried out to help. Business is so good today, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep myself busy without him.
Yuebai picked up a piece of firewood casually, and the first feeling was that it was so light.
In the past two years, the only wood that Yuebai has touched is gold and stone wood. Although it is all wood, it is much heavier than ordinary wood.
Yuebai weighed it a few times, threw the piece of firewood casually, and then quickly held the firewood knife behind his back with his other hand. Then I saw a few flashes of knife light that were so fast that it was difficult for my eyes to keep up. When the firewood went up, it was still one, but when it came down, it was already eight!
"This wood is so soft. That's what it's called wood! I'm going to die for whatever bullshit!"
......
"I'm leaving!"
Yuebai walked out of the shop and said.
The boss nodded subconsciously. But then, he realized that something was wrong, and asked with some annoyance: "How long have you been in this year, and all the firewood has been chopped?"
"That's right. Yuebai replied as a matter of course.
"You, Ah Song, go in and have a look! If you don't cut one, you will unload this boy's hands and feet for me!"
Ah Song also did not believe it. With so much firewood, how could it be possible to finish chopping at this time, and immediately walked in curiously.
"Boy, don't think that my wife has a good heart and can act recklessly in front of me. Don't call it later!"
Yuebai just glanced at him, and the boss's green tendons immediately burst out a few more.
"Okay, let's see how long you can pretend!"
Soon, Ah Song hurriedly ran out and exclaimed, "Really, it's all over!"
"What?
The boss brought this firewood by himself this morning, so he naturally knew that there was a lot of it. It's only been a few minutes since Yuebai went in to came out, how could it be all split?
"It's all said that it's over, what a cautious uncle. But the buns are well done. I chopped so much wood for you, it's not too much to take more buns from you. ”
As he spoke, Yuebai took another big meat bag out of the steamer.
"Wow, it's hot!ahh
Seeing that the moon was so white, the boss's temper immediately came again. I just wanted to pick up the stick on the side and teach him a good lesson, but was stopped by the kind middle-aged woman and said, "Forget it, this child is pitiful when he is out alone." And if he is...... That's not something we can afford to mess with. ”
The boss listened to her words and calmed down. After thinking about it carefully, this young man is probably not an ordinary person. If it's really that kind of person, I'm afraid it's yourself who will suffer. At least, this kind of chopping speed is definitely not comparable to itself.
Thinking about it this way, it is indeed unwise to do it.
However, with so many people watching at the door, the boss didn't want to lose face, so he immediately said with a straight face: "This firewood is chopped, and the buns will be eaten if they are eaten." I'm here to let you know that you get what you pay for. I hope you can change your ways in the future, be a good person, and stop doing some things like stealing chickens and dogs. ”
"???When did I steal chickens and dogs?"
At this time, the eyes of the people around him who looked at Yuebai also became weird, and he was uncomfortable.
"Do this kind of thing at such a young age, and you will have to do it in the future?"
"That is, I have to keep my child away from him in the future. ”
Even Bingmeng felt a little embarrassed and secretly got into the crack of Yuebai's clothes.
"I'm ......"
Yuebai naturally has a black line on his face, and he can't wait to explode immediately. The owner of the bun shop was gloating on the sidelines.
If I can't beat you, I can't cure you? Be honest with me after the gun shoots the first bird.
However, the middle-aged woman immediately helped Yuebai save the scene and said, "Oh, Xianggong, what are you talking nonsense, how can such a young child steal things?" Sure enough, the eyes around her became less dazzling than before. These people are all regular customers of the bun shop, and they know that although she is kind, she rarely lies.
Yuebai immediately looked at her like a savior, and her eyes were about to glow.
This is a human being! No, she's an angel! She's a fairy!
Yuebai glanced at the boss again and immediately snorted.
"Quack. "The sound made by the force of the finger bones.
"Alright, Xianggong. What kind of temper tantrums do you have with children?" the middle-aged woman persuaded by holding the thick arm of the owner of the bun shop.
Yuebai naturally nodded vigorously and said, "That's it." "A picture of underbeatenness.
The boss's eyes were about to burst into flames when he saw Yuebai, but his wife pulled it, otherwise he had to rush up and fight to the death.
"Son, I see that you are very skilled. Since you don't have any money, it's better to be a hunter, at least to ensure food and clothing. ”
