Chapter 270: A Farce Caused by a Cat (1)
Pushing the shopping cart, Ling Ping'an first ordered seven boxes of carbonated drinks in the mall.
It's his favorite!
Whether it's playing games or code words, it's a baby that you can't live without!
Fat house happy water, water drink who knows.
After signing the order, leaving the address, and completing the payment, Ling Ping'an was about to leave with his shopping cart when he saw several boxes of drinks that seemed to be packaged in some kind of foreign script next to the container in the beverage section.
"What is this?" He asked the waiter.
"Kvass of Lohia!" The waiter replied with a smile, probably because he was afraid that Ling Ping'an didn't know what Lohia was, so he deliberately emphasized: "It's the Rakshasa Kingdom in the past!" ”
Ling Ping'an naturally knows this historical common sense.
The previous dynasty called the northern neighbor a rakshasa .
This arrogant narrative of the central dynasty made Taizu very unhappy.
Therefore, Emperor Taizu personally presided over the translation work.
Rakshasa is translated as Lohia, which means the country of the Lohi people.
Of course, the Lohias didn't really like this translation, preferring the Federal Empire to call them 'Rome'.
Its monarch claimed to be 'Caesar's heir, Emperor of the Romans'.
These are all things that Lingping learned when he went to school.
After all, Lohia is a country of great writers.
It is a very desirable place for liberal arts students.
It's the kind of place where I haven't been there, but I just like it.
Thinking about Turgenev, thinking about Tolstoy.
Ling Ping'an said to the waiter, "Then add two more boxes of this kvass!" ”
"Okay!" The other party immediately said happily.
Ling Ping'an took out his mobile phone, scanned the code to pay, and then took the invoice, humming a little song and left, as if drinking Lohia's drink, he could talk and laugh with those great writers.
Pushing the shopping cart, Ling Ping'an came to the affordable clothing area on the second floor.
It's his favorite place.
Batches of clothing, densely packed, hung with hangers.
Just go over and just choose directly.
As long as it's the right size, you can buy it, it's simple and straightforward!
It's like the last time I went shopping with my aunt, I had to go to more than a dozen stores and try on dozens of pieces of clothing, which was terrifying!
It was the most terrible punishment.
Ling Ping'an pushed the shopping cart, passed through the clothes, and when he saw the right one, he took it down and threw it into the shopping cart.
Soon, the shopping cart was full of clothes and pants, and judging by the number, there might be more than a dozen, so he stopped his shopping behavior and pushed the cart down to the second floor.
Come downstairs to the cat food section.
He looked at it, and the three hundred yuan a bucket of cat food was only mid-range.
Five hundred, six hundred, even one thousand, two thousand, abound.
Ling Ping'an looked at the cat food, he scratched his head, and said to Best, who was sitting in the shopping cart, "Look at you......"
"It's more expensive than my brother......
Meow ......
The little guy lowered his head and looked very ashamed.
Ling Ping'an stepped forward, picked up a can of 800 yuan and 5 kilograms of cat food, and put it in the shopping cart.
Your own pets, you can't suffer!
With all this in order, he immediately pushed the shopping cart and walked towards the exit of the supermarket.
Pay, pay, and then pick up the cat food and clothes and put them in a cloth bag prepared at the supermarket.
He carried one in one hand and left.
Kitten Best followed suit.
Meow ......
Meow ......
The little one is cute and loves to scream happily.
…………………………
Ma Baobao stood upstairs in the mall.
He watched the crowd gather downstairs.
He smiled slightly.
This is a great opportunity!
Especially......
He looked at the people behind him, what a great character!
The Imperial Ryugu Ocean Fishing Company of the Federal Empire!
A living dragon!
It was also the real nobleman who he did everything possible to finally attach!
"Huh......" The noble man suddenly looked downstairs and exclaimed.
"Ao Gongzi, what's wrong?" Ma Baobao immediately asked.
"That cat ......" Ao Gongzi walked to the guardrail and looked at a kitten following behind a young man.
His eyes began to change.
Like a snake, like a lizard.
In his eyes, although the kitten looks petite, it is actually full of aura.
There was something faint that he couldn't see.
"Baby!" Ao Gongzi sighed again and again: "What a baby! ”
Such a civet cat, even in the imperial capital, is also a first-class spirit pet!
The spirit fox raised by the eldest princess is probably equal.
And as we all know, His Majesty the Emperor, who is growing up, has always longed to have a spirit pet that can defeat the spirit fox of the eldest princess of Rou'an!
If you dedicate it to Your Majesty......
Of course......
Ao Gongzi raised his eyes.
He knew that the blackguards were everywhere.
So, he can't come forward.
Even if you just say 'I want to'.
The black-clad guard didn't care about his reasons and justifications.
Once he is found to have 'violated the law', his father will not be able to protect him.
After all, the black-clothed guard governor is holding a charcoal seller every day, and he is showing them the descendants of demons.
A cart of charcoal, more than 1,000 catties, the palace envoy will not regret it.
Half a horse of red yarn is tied to the cow's head and is filled with charcoal!
I thought back to the sound of the governor's recitation.
Ao Gongzi shuddered, he knew that what Du Du hated the most was the kind of transcendent/alien who relied on strange arts to oppress the common people.
Once discovered, kill directly!
Because, he has already been taught by his old man.
This is not a punishment for not being taught.
But......
You can play a side game!
The big guys never had to speak directly.
Hints are enough.
Therefore, Ao Gongzi looked at the civet cat and began to sigh again: "Speaking of which, Your Majesty's birthday will be next month......"
"As a loyal and filial son, I have been looking for a suitable tribute!"
"If anyone can solve this problem for me, he will be my guest!"
Ma Baobao listened, immediately patted his chest, and said to Ao Gongzi: "Childe, please wait for a while, and come when you go down......"
Just a cat.
No matter how precious it is, just take the money and smash it.
10,000 doesn't work 100,000, 100,000 doesn't work 1 million!
Ma Baobao looked at the kitten who had been following behind a young man carrying two bags of things.
He didn't believe that such an ordinary citizen could hold out in front of the banknote ability, how long?
It's really not good, there are still off-board tricks!
Anyway, that cat, he's going to decide!
Heavenly King Lao Tzu can't stop him!
Ao Gongzi immediately stopped him: "Mr. Ma, I'm just talking!" ”
"Don't take it personally!"
Ma Baobao listened, and his motivation became even stronger.
He arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, the old man has a number!" ”
The nobles of the imperial capital, decency is the most important thing!
Especially people who have something to do with the royal family, especially care about their faces.
Ma Baobao knows this!
Ao Gongzi still didn't seem to be at ease, and told again and again: "Mr. Ma...... I'm really just talking! ”
He's really just talking.
Ma Baobao smiled: "Understood! ”
He took the people and went straight downstairs.
……………………………………
Ling Ping'an carried the things he had bought and walked through the halls of the mall.
In the dense flow of people, he buried his head and walked forward.
The kitten Best, who has been following behind, is very well-behaved and sensible.
One person and one cat, out of the mall, crossed the parking lot in front of the mall, and quickly turned a corner and walked to the bus stop in front.
"Please wait a minute......"
At this time, a voice came from behind him.
Ling Ping'an scratched his head, turned around, and looked at an old man in a blue coat who walked over with a few bodyguards.
"Old gentleman?" He looked at each other, thought about it carefully, and finally connected him with the 'eighteenth generation Tai Chi Xingyi Inheritor Mr. Ma Baobao' that he saw on the big screen in the supermarket.
No way, it is very difficult for people with face blindness to recognize people.
Especially strangers, it is even more difficult.
It's not that he can't remember, it's easy to confuse.
It's a bit like a stuttering patient, who struggles to speak, but can speak.
He's the same, he can remember some people, but he needs to see them often.
If you don't see it for a long time, it will blur and then confuse.
"What advice do you have?" Ling Ping'an asked politely.
Ma Baobao walked up to the young man.
He just glanced at it.
A cheap casual suit, the whole body is not enough for one of his sleeves.
The glasses on the eye sockets, at a glance, you can tell that they were bought by the e-commerce company.
Maybe it's still bargaining and fighting.
The things that are carried in both hands are also messy.
This kind of civilian child is very easy to deal with.
So Ma Baobao showed a smile that he thought was very kind: "Young man, the old man is the eighteenth generation of Tai Chi Xingyi heirs......
Well......
Generally speaking, when his title is revealed, most people will be in awe.
Even if it's not, you'll be shocked!
After all, his martial arts hall has dozens of branches.
It is also famous in the ancient martial arts world!
What's more, he has also cultivated several black-clothed school officers!
As a result, both political and business terms are open.
The face is also huge!
Pity......
The young man on the other side scratched his head with a look that was not very difficult to understand.
Moreover, there is no sign of respect for his title.
He frowned and said, "Old man, if you have any advice, please tell me directly...... I still have to catch the bus! ”
Ma Baobao suddenly became a little hot!
I condescended to speak to you, and you didn't appreciate it.
It's okay if you don't appreciate it.
He actually said the naked humiliating words of 'I still have to catch the bus'.
I'm not as important as your bus?
Ma Baobao shook his head in his heart and sighed: "Mortals are mortals...... Rat-eyed, rude and rude......"
However, he still had a smile on his face, and he was very kind.
This is normal, in the eyes of people like him, most people are not worth his anger.
Why bother?
Right!
Why be angry with some mortals who are not a world.
Who's to blame for being angry?
Moreover, in a fight with mortals, there will never be a winner!
With the Black Guard, he can't win!
What the black-clothed guard does best is pull the offset.
His disciples had told him about the Blackguard's thinking.
The strong must restrain their own strength!
The strong must take the initiative to make sacrifices in order to protect the weak.
The words engraved by Emperor Gaozong in front of the official residence of the black-clothed guards are still the benchmark for the black-clothed guards to enforce the law: if the use of power is not restricted, it will definitely lead to the exploitation and oppression of the weak by the strong!
Therefore, when dealing with related affairs, the black guards will try their best to protect the interests of civilians within the framework of laws and institutions.
It's a balance.
As a result, an ancient warrior like Ma Baobao, who stepped into the ranks of transcendents with one foot, would try his best to avoid conflicts with civilians under normal circumstances.
A lot of things are left to your subordinates.
It was this time, when it was about Ao Gongzi, that he took the initiative to ask for help.
This is to pay the vote, and it is also to show the attitude - Ao Gongzi's business is my business.
With this mentality, Ma Baobao squinted his eyes and said, "Young man, it's like this......"
"Old, nearly ......seventy years old this year"
"On weekdays, there are no other hobbies......"
"Just love to raise little ones......"
"I don't know, can you cut your pet to love?"
He smiled and said, "Young man, don't worry, money is not a problem!" ”
"You cat, just make an offer with me!"
………………………………
Ling Ping'an looked at the old man in front of him, and then looked down at the kitten at his feet.
The kitten was so frightened that she hid at his feet and whined.
The hair all over his body was shaking, as if he remembered something terrible.
"Little obedient ......" Ling Ping'an touched its head: "Don't be afraid, my brother won't abandon your ......"
He thought about the night he first met the little one.
Thin, pitiful, covered in blood, trembling with fear.
What a pathetic!
So he knew that the former owner of this kitten was probably like the old man in front of him.
At the same time, Ling Ping also remembered that pets like cats and dogs, if they are spiritual, can recognize good and evil in people!
So......
That kind old man is actually a pervert who abuses small animals?
Of course, these are speculations, and there is no evidence.
Therefore, Ling Ping'an looked at the old man, the so-called eighteenth generation of Tai Chi Xingyi inheritor.
He said very politely: "Sorry, old man, my pet is my family......"
"And family, it's priceless!"
"So...... I can only regret your request......"
"A million!" Ma Baobao immediately said a price that he thought he couldn't refuse.
Ling Ping'an shook his head as he listened.
Million?
Is my cat so valuable?
But alas, he's not interested in money!
And, in a sense, he also has no concept of money.
Money is enough!
So, he didn't bother to answer, and walked forward directly.
The kitten Bester immediately followed his owner.
At the same time, it looked back at the humans.
The anger of the cat goddess is already boiling.
"Stupid human!"
"Ridiculous worm!"
If it weren't for the presence of his master, He would have revealed His true nature and crushed all these fools who blasphemed it!
"Two million!" The old man behind him continued to make a bid.
This made Ling Ping'an go faster.
Because, he felt that he had probably met a liar.
Two million a cat?
Is Best made of gold?
Even if it's made of gold, it can't be so expensive!
It's obvious......
Countless cases of fraud flashed through his mind.
It is impossible for a witty contemporary youth to fall into such a fool's trap.
What's more, he has no desires and no desires!
Money, like dung with me!
Tao Yuanming said that he would not bend his waist for five buckets of rice.
And that's what he did.
In addition to the bookstore business, he only makes money on his own interests!
Even if I know that my cooking skills are great, I don't have the slightest idea of changing careers.
That's who he is.
His attitude finally angered the people behind him.
"Shaft!" Ma Baobao didn't speak, and the bodyguards behind him were already furious.
The Lord humiliates his ministers to death!
Trained to know now is the time to show their value.
Immediately, they stepped out in order.
Meow!
The kitten Best seemed to be frightened, and suddenly jumped high and jumped onto Ling Ping'an's shoulder.
Ling Ping'an was also taken aback by his pet.
He looked back at the men dressed as bodyguards dressed in black and wearing sunglasses.
The young bookstore owner is not half afraid.
He looked at the men calmly.
Then I looked up and looked at the surveillance camera at the intersection ahead.
The surveillance has turned.
So he laughed.
"What do you want to do?" Righteous and awe-inspiring, he puffed up his chest.
He has enough confidence in the country, enough confidence in the law, enough confidence in the system!
As the safest country in the world.
The police of the Federal Empire are very efficient!
Last year, the fastest police dispatch speed in Jiangcheng City was five minutes, and the latest police dispatch speed did not exceed 10 minutes.
And this is a commercial area, with several security posts.
Therefore, even if he is alone, he has no fear.
The country and the law are his biggest backing!
