Chapter 22: The Woman Who Ran Away
Zhang Yuan saw that this white-clothed Confucian was elegant and polite, and he couldn't help but feel good.
"I wonder if Sir can tell us a little bit about himself, so that we can decide whether to hire you as a guide," Zhang Yuan said bluntly, he felt that it was so strange to enter the city, it was better to ask more. If this person gives them something to do, it's not a joke.
The white-clothed Confucian priest arched his hand again and said: "My name is Meng Tan, and I have read poetry and books since I was a child. ”
Originally, in this Yinglong City, they usually don't report their own doors, but in order to reassure the two, Meng Tan told the two. I come from the Little Sage Village, and I am a great force in this city. You can ask for more information."
After Meng Tan finished introducing himself, Zhang Yuan motioned to Qin Feng to inquire about the basic information of Xiao Shengxian Zhuang and Meng Tan. It is impossible for people to believe whatever they say, after all, it is Meng Tan who actively follows himself. If you are not cautious enough, you will be eaten by others, and there will not even be a bone left.
It didn't take long for Qin Feng to come back. Sure enough, there is a little sage Zhuang Meng Tan this person, and Meng Tan is not an unknown person in the little sage village, many people know him, and the appearance described is also the same as this Meng Tan.
Zhang Yuan felt a little painful, but he didn't expect that the ordinary people in Yinglong City would fall into the eyes of money one by one. If you want them to tell them what they know, even if it's their own name, you have to charge a fee, and it will cost him a lot of money. A guy like Meng Tan who reports his name at home can be called a model.
After Zhang Yuan's flesh hurt, he became more and more curious. I couldn't help asking: "Mr. is also a person of status in Xiaoshengxian Village, how can he come to be a guide with others?"
Meng Tan smiled slightly, refusing to speak. Instantly, he changed the face of a businessman and said: "What I said is true, if you ask other people about these basic information, you will have to pay a little money." And I didn't ask you for any money, and if you keep asking me questions, you'll have to hire me as a guide for you."
Zhang Yuan thought for a while and said: "I don't know the price if I want to hire a gentleman."
Meng Tan: "You can pay me a one-time payment of one hundred gold coins a day, of course, you can also ask me a question one gold coin"
Zhang Yuan had a toothache when he heard this, this guy really dared to ask for a hundred gold coins, and he could buy a house in Yongcheng that was almost there. A question is a gold coin, and it is not cheap to open his gold mouth.
In the end, he chose to give Meng Tan a hundred gold coins to hire him. He was afraid of giving a gold coin after a gold coin, and he didn't know if Meng Tan, a scholar, would give him a big pit. I didn't even think about going to other people, after all, with Meng Tan's popularity, he must know more things than others.
Meng Tan then told Zhang Yuan the reason why he was a guide.
Meng Tan is a bit special about this person's awakening, this guy is full of poetry and books, and he feels the vitality inspired by the merits of the previous sages. Therefore, he wants to make great achievements to establish fame, meritorious service, and virtue. He often came out to be a guide, and the most important thing was to build his reputation.
Zhang Yuan listened to a burst of envy, jealousy and hatred. I fought my life and death before I entered the realm of awakening, but I didn't expect this guy to be able to cultivate by flipping through books. What I didn't expect was that people could make cultivation more refined by being guides, and they were really more popular than people!
He couldn't help complaining: "Since Mr. is going to make a name for himself and practice his own exercises, aren't you afraid that you will be notorious by collecting our gold coins like this?"
After all, he is a scholar, and when Zhang Yuan said this, Meng Tan's face was a little unbearable. Coughed lightly and said: "After all, I am a person from Little Sage Village, I always have to do something for it when I run out all day long, and I can't eat dry rice every day, can I?"
Zhang Yuan didn't continue to dwell on this issue, after all, he was just complaining for a while. The main thing is to complete the task of supplying supplies. You must know that there is a beautiful woman waiting for her to go back in the mountains outside the city, as well as more than ten robes.
So he asked Meng Tan about the situation of the goods and how to buy the most cost-effective.
Meng said: "Yinglong City is a completely chaotic place, but the chaotic land also has the benefits of a chaotic land. That is, there are many forces from all sides, including the Ten Hidden Monarchs, who want to have their own forces in Yinglong City. They must have their own uniqueness, and the most direct is to have their own unique goods. Therefore, as long as you have enough money, you can buy everything in Yinglong City."
Later, Meng Tan introduced Zhang Yuan to where to buy general things.
For example, if you want to buy a weapon that is offensive or a weapon that can be used in the battle of the legion, you have to go to the circle of influence of the Dragon Proud Monarch to buy it.
If you want all kinds of pills, it's best to go to Danbao Pavilion, the owner of this house is said to be from the Jin Kingdom in a distant land. But no matter what kind of pill you want, you can definitely buy it.
Meng Tan didn't forget to tout the little sage village where he was located, he said that if you have any doubts about cultivation or want to prepare in advance for the magical powers that can only be cultivated when you reach the Daotai realm. You can go to Little Sage Village.
When it comes to how to buy things cheaply, Meng Tan's advice is also very simple.
"When you're buying something, if you're strong enough, just let your momentum out. As long as you do this, the small forces will not dare to deceive you, for fear that you will settle accounts after the autumn. The great forces will also form a good relationship with you. ”
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be dumbfounded! I didn't expect the price negotiation in Yinglong City to be so wild and uninhibited. But he Zhang Yuan likes this way, and he just woke up a few days ago, and he was trying to find a few more places to shake off his majesty.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's hurry up and shake off our majesty! No, let's go shopping quickly" Zhang Yuan couldn't wait to speak.
Meng Tan smiled awkwardly, wondering if he would bury the reputation he had accumulated over the past year if he led this guy to shake the prestige of the shops. It seems likely that this hundred gold coins will be lost.
Qin Feng was a little embarrassed for Zhang Yuan on the side. He felt that Moon Rose's beautiful eyes like water were really white, how could he fall in love with a person like Zhang Yuan, who likes to slap his beard and pretend.
Zhang Yuan seemed to sense that something was wrong in Qin Feng's eyes, and glared at him fiercely, Qin Feng subconsciously shrank his neck.
When Zhang Yuan turned his head to lift his legs, a person stumbled into his arms. He subconsciously stretched out his arms and hugged the person in the middle.
When he took a closer look, the person who bumped into his arms was a woman, who had a beautiful face and a relatively well-proportioned figure. can be regarded as a beauty, but it is still worse than Moon Rose and Qin Xiu'er.
Without waiting for Zhang Yuan to ask why the woman was so flustered, more than a dozen people rushed out in front of him. These people also looked confused when they saw Zhang Yuan and the others at first glance, and the leader frowned slightly, not knowing how this woman could throw herself into Zhang Yuan's arms.
More than a dozen people on the opposite side looked at Zhang Yuan and the others, and when they saw Meng Tan, they knew that this guy liked to be a guide. In this Yinglong City, there are people with heads and faces who like to do this kind of thing, and I'm afraid this is the only one. At the same time, he also understood that Zhang Yuan and Qin Feng should be outsiders. I have a little bit in my heart, it's much easier to do it if it's not a local snake to meddle in things.
Zhang Yuan was also looking at the more than ten people opposite, especially the leader. The leader is still fair-eyed, about thirty years old, and the short beard on his mouth adds a bit of stability to him.
The leader didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Yuan, but bowed his hand to Meng Tan and said, "In the Evil Immortal Sect Shen You, Mr. is the little sage Zhuang Meng Tan."
Meng Tan replied, "It's exactly below."
Shen You confirmed Meng Tan's identity and said, "If Mr. wants to meddle in this matter, we will retreat immediately."
Meng Tan shook his head, saying that he was not interested in taking care of this matter.
When Shin You got a reply, he didn't hesitate anymore. With a wave of his hand, he motioned for the woman to be taken away. Shen You immediately separated two people and walked in front of Zhang Yuan, who knew that Zhang Yuan was holding the woman's waist and didn't move.
One of them said, "This gentleman had better let this woman go and leave our business alone."
Zhang Yuan felt bitter in his heart, not that he didn't want to let go. Instead, the woman clutched him by the collar and looked at herself with teary eyes. He pinched the woman's waist with his hand and pushed it several times without pushing, mainly because he was afraid that he would hurt others with too much strength, after all, everyone has no grievances, so why bother.
Shen You's eyes narrowed slightly at this time, and he looked at the wolf a little bit. said coldly: "Boy, do you want to make trouble, if you know each other, you will hand over Xu Ru is woman to us." I'm afraid you're new and don't know the rules. Don't lose your life just because you see someone beautiful."
Zhang Yuan didn't want to care about this kind of thing. However, Shen You's words were really a little untidy, which made her feel a little angry.
Zhang Yuan: "Your name is Shen You, right? As the saying goes: someone shovels when the road is uneven, and someone takes care of the uneven road. I'm going to take care of him today. ”
Shen You showed a little hesitation again, after all, he didn't know Zhang Yuan's depth. Seeing Zhang Yuan so hard, he felt a little empty in his heart.
Shen You is worthy of being a character rolling in the chaotic Yinglong City, and he changed his face in an instant.
With a smile, he said: "This little brother doesn't know, I didn't rob women, but her brother lost her to me." If you don't believe her, you can ask her."
Zhang Yuan looked at the woman with tears in his arms and clutching his collar with both hands. At the same time, I felt a little weak in my heart, it turned out that people were not robbing! I got it by means, but I just came to get it now.
But he still said: "If the girl has any grievances, just say it, the world is not fair, not to mention that the little sage Zhuang Meng is here, known as a virtuous name, where will he ignore you?"
Zhang Yuan still doesn't believe that this woman is not a little wronged, otherwise what would he run away?
Meng Tan on the side had a dark face. What is this called, I clearly don't care about it, and I still get involved. I really didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today.
The woman in Zhang Yuan's arms wanted to speak, but when she opened her mouth, she sobbed and choked.
