Chapter 148: The Conversation Between the Enchantress and the Heroine
Los Angeles is light and dusty in the rain, and the guest house is green and willow-colored.
After a summer shower, the whole of Los Angeles is in full swing, the air is filled with fresh smells, the sun is slowly rising in the east, and the golden glow is sprinkled over the land.
Xiao Soul Inn, the broken wall, now a few masons in gray clothes are moving bricks to slowly repair, because they need to be carefully repaired, after all, it is impossible to leave an obvious trace of repair when opening the door to do business, so it needs to work slowly.
The Sky Soul Inn couldn't be open in the first place, because now that there are no cooks and no chores, this business can't be done in the first place.
The Sky Soul Inn was closed, but the grocery store opposite the Sky Soul Inn opened its doors and started business.
This is a small shop, but it is better to be clean and tidy, the so-called grocery store, as long as someone buys something, it is sold here.
In fact, it is equivalent to a convenience store in later generations.
So needles and threads, melons, fruits and vegetables, snacks, melon seeds, soy sauce, vinegar and tobacco, the small shop is full of all kinds of goods, which also attracts customers.
However, unlike ordinary grocery stores, these customers are full of customers, but they are not ordinary aunts, but bad men crowded at the door, just wanting to buy a bottle of vinegar, a bottle of soy sauce, or a bag of salt and a can of sunflower oil.
Without him, just because the hostess is so good-looking.
Ningxia stood at the counter of the grocery store, with a calm and professional smile, she is a woman who can show her eight teeth to smile, with a flawless smile, a soft voice, shallow eyes, quoting, selling, collecting money, checkout, even if there are many people, she is also orderly and unhurried.
Behind her stood a black-haired girl dressed in plain white, Shang Jiuge pursed her lips, helping Ningxia to make soy sauce and vinegar, these jobs are a bit overkill for Shang Jiuge, but the girl doesn't mind.
When it was close to noon, the guests gradually dispersed, and Shang Jiuge sat on the bench of the grocery store and looked at his hands quietly.
The girl's hands were still white and delicate, and she didn't even have calluses on her sword, but there was a trace of confusion in Shang Jiuge's black eyes.
Usually, this girl never had any sense of confusion.
Ningxia's injuries have improved a bit, and she has gradually become familiar with her current state.
From being unable to walk at the beginning, to being able to do some regular daily activities now, Shang Jiuge is like a toddler, readjusting to this slowing down world.
And now coming to the grocery store to help like this is He Ping's request.
Because this is a little more elaborate to take the goods and pour the soy sauce, it can better exercise Shang Jiuge's precise movements, allowing her to further exercise.
Of course - the girl with the sword will not be able to hold it in the short term, and there is no way to do it.
In fact, Shang Jiuge himself doesn't mind being such a small job at all, especially on the premise that he can learn things.
"Ningxia." Shang Jiu Ge looked up at the woman from the Western Regions sitting opposite in front of him.
The two of them sat in this small grocery store, surrounded by firewood, rice, oil, salt, fruits, steamed buns, needles, threads, brains and other miscellaneous things.
Ningxia snorted.
"Why are you here?" Shang Jiu Ge asked.
Ning Xia smiled: "I thought you wouldn't ask such a question." ”
"Why?" Shang Jiuge asked rhetorically.
"Because you're not like someone who asks that kind of question." Ningxia said softly.
In fact, her back injury has not healed, but some basic movements can still be done, and the two patients are now working on each other, and they can't help but feel a little sympathetic.
After getting along in the past two days, in fact, Ningxia feels quite good about Shang Jiuge.
After all, Brother Shang is such a cool person.
"I just don't get very curious." Shang Jiu Ge shook his head and said, "Now, I'm a little curious about you. ”
"The curiosity of the world is supposed to be as little as possible." Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and said, "It doesn't matter why I stayed here, the important thing is that I stayed." ”
"Yes." Shang Jiu Ge nodded: "Then do you have any plans for the future?" ”
"I can't believe you asked this question." Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and said helplessly.
Because Ningxia knows a little bit about Shang Jiuge, this girl has never been such a meticulous person.
"Shall we say something?" Shang Jiu Ge smiled and asked, "I don't want to sit here in a daze with boredom right now. ”
"Actually, I'm pretty good at being in a daze, but sometimes, I don't mind talking to people."
"And I think you're funny."
Shang Jiu Ge has always been able to say his reasons confidently, but now there are only two people sitting here, of course, he has to gossip a little, even if they are all Huashan women who may be famous in the rivers and lakes, demon demon girls.
But now that we're sitting at the grocery store and selling things, there's nothing to gossip about each other.
"I don't have any plans." Ning Ning shook his head and said, "Actually, I didn't think I would survive. ”
"Don't give me a chance to survive."
"Then I'll watch it live."
"That's all." This Western Regions demon girl said with a little melancholy.
"It's not like what you would say." Shang Jiu Ge shook his head.
The girl's lips were faintly bloody, but her eyes were pitch black, even if Shang Jiuge couldn't hold a sword at all now, she was still sharp like a sword.
"I chose to stay here because I felt it would help me."
Shang Jiu Ge said quietly.
"Help?" Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and asked.
"Help." Shang Jiuge nodded and said, "He Ping is very strong, isn't he?" ”
"Although my senior brother is also very strong, He Ping's strength is completely different from his."
"I feel that He Ping and I are all the way, and now it seems that we are indeed all the way."
"In this case, I can learn stronger swords and become stronger."
Ningxia listened to Shang Jiuge's quiet words and looked at this little Huashan aunt sitting in the grocery store: "What's the point of becoming stronger?" ”
"The stronger you get, the farther you can see." Shang Jiuge said quietly: "You can let more people hear your voice and do what you want to do." ”
"So I need to be stronger, and I want to be stronger."
"It doesn't sound like a woman saying that." Ningxia said with a smile.
"Is there a difference?" Shang Jiuge looked at Ningxia and said.
"Absolutely." Ningxia said: "Among the top ten in the list of rivers and lakes, there are only two women. ”
"Then there will be three later." Shang Jiuge said calmly: "I always firmly believe that there is no difference between good and bad martial arts and men and women. ”
Ning Xia smiled: "After all, you are Huashan Shang Jiuge." ”
"It's okay with this." Shang Jiu Ge shook his head and said.
And at this time, someone came to the counter of the grocery store and gently knocked on the counter with his hand.
"I heard, Shang Jiu Ge is here?"
Ningxia and Shang Jiuge raised their eyes at the same time to look at the comers.
