A month later, Shen Xin came to a relatively large city from Xuan Lan all the way to the east, the location of the city is a bit southerly, Shen Xin came here because he heard on the road that there is a famous monument here, it is a stone sword flying from the sky, just inserted in an ancient tree, since then, the city has become a place of battle for the change of dynasties.

And when the yin-yang mirror observed, he said with some disdain: "This city is between two mountains, and it is one of the most important passages leading to the east and west from the map, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so there is a saying that the military must fight." ”

Shen Xin nodded, straightened his hat, blended into the crowd, and entered with the large army. But a classic scene appeared, a small soldier guarding the city walked straight to Shen Xin, and said a little arrogantly: "Stop, what are you doing!"

Shen Xin stopped and didn't speak, Xiao Bing came closer and said, "What do you ask!" The flow of people around Shen Xin was obviously far away from Shen Xin.

Shen Xin thought about it, took out two taels of silver from his cuffs and threw them on the ground, and said calmly: "Official, your money has fallen." A finger of silver that fell to the ground.

Xiao Bing looked down and saw that two taels of silver was his month's worth of silver. Xiao Bing showed a happy look on his face, and hurriedly picked up the silver, glanced at Shen Xin, and said, "Don't go in yet!"

Shen Xin did not speak. Walking quickly into the city, there was a conversation of a few small soldiers in his ears, one of which was: "Jiang Laoer, you have picked up a lot of money, please drink tonight." ”

Shen Xin shook his head, he remembered why the gap between the rich and the poor between people is so big, some people make a move for 10,000 taels, and some people have to use two and a lot of money to buy meat.

The yin-yang mirror said with some yin and yang weirdness: "Young Master Shen, if you have money, you can shoot for two ~~~ two silver." "The last word is still a long drag.

"I only have the beginning of Qi condensation in my cultivation now, and I don't have the same knowledge as these little soldiers. The hood covered Shen Xin's face, and behind the curtain he looked cynical.

"Next, where are you going to stay? How much money do you have? That's more than ten taels of silver. "Yin-Yang Mirror Road.

Shen Xin nodded: "Haven't you experienced the next routine by my side many times, I still don't understand." I'm also very strange, when I run out of money, I will live in a small or broken hotel, and then when I encounter trouble, I will beat up, keep the hotel, and the shopkeeper will be grateful to Dade, change the store number, and free store money. Remembering that when I was the young master of the Shen family, the beautiful daughter of the hotel shopkeeper was about to throw herself into her arms. ”

The yin-yang mirror didn't speak, looked around, and saw a dilapidated and abnormal, but brand-new hotel between the two big hotels, the name of the hotel - Youjia. It's the name of the routine. Yin-Yang Mirror guessed that Shen Xin would definitely stay in this hotel.

Sure enough, Shen Xin didn't even look at the other two hotels and walked straight over. Xiao Er, who did not solicit customers at the door, went in, only to see two or three tables neatly arranged, and the top was also clean and glowing, a little girl sat there in a bored daze, and an older boy was a little fat and a little sluggish, as if there were some obstacles. Finally, behind the counter, there was a white-haired old man sleeping on his arm, snoring quite loudly.

"Shopkeeper!" Shen Xin deliberately roared loudly.

The old man fell from his arm and raised his head, his eyes still a little hazy. Seeing Shen Xin standing in front of a table, he hurriedly got out from behind the counter with a clean rag hanging on his shoulder. Walking to the table, he first removed the bench on the table, and then took off the rag on his shoulder and carefully wiped the bench that was already clean and abnormal, and then let Shen Xin sit down.

After Shen Xin sat down, the old man spoke: "Is this guest officer sharpening or eating?" ”

"Huh?"

Lao Hai slapped his mouth and said again: "Is the guest officer eating or staying in the hotel?" ”

Shen Xin pretended to groan and said, "Well... It's still early, so let's make something to eat first, and then prepare a room for a few days. ”

"Okay, wait a minute. The old man turned to the older boy and said, "Da Zhuang, don't be in a daze, hurry up and make a fire to cook." Then he said to the little girl: "Xiaodi, you go and clean up the best room, hurry up." ”

Xiao Di's voice was cute: "Oh. So he went upstairs.

And Da Zhuang slowly turned his head and responded slowly: "Ah~oh." Then he walked to the back kitchen.

The old man explained to Shen Xin with some apologies: "I'm really sorry, Da Zhuang is not easy to make here." He pointed to his head, "If there is anything inconsiderate, the guest officer will try to scold him as much as possible." But Da Zhuang's meals are really delicious. ”

Shen Xin took off his hat and said with a smile: "It's okay. You can get busy. By the way, how much. ”

The old man was a little squirming and embarrassed to speak, Shen Xin continued to smile and said, "It's okay, just open your mouth." ”

The old man compared three fingers, Shen Xin thought it was three taels, and was about to touch out the silver taels, so the old man said the real price: "Three cents of silver a day to eat." ”

Shen Xin thought that it was so cheap, so he took out three taels of silver and handed it to the old man, and said, "You take these first, if it's not enough, tell me." ”

The old man was full of joy, and Shen Xin was still quite puzzled, he was so happy with such a little money?

Yin-Yang Mirror said: "Are you wondering, why is that old man so happy?"

Shen Xin nodded slightly, and the Yin-Yang Mirror continued: "The Shen family gives you twenty taels of silver per month, and when you don't cultivate, you have to spend nearly two taels almost every day, but there is still a surplus at the end of the month. At that time, it was a silver tael contract, that is, ten strings of copper plates. And it's about the same here, but if you think about it, the price when you sell meat, a pound of good pork belly is only twenty or thirty copper plates. Don't mention the cloud deer, if it weren't for the harsh conditions of the cloud deer you hunted, it wouldn't be so expensive. Ordinary people's living expenses cannot exceed two taels a year, of course, this kind of expensive point in the city, you look at the gap between the rich and the poor. ”

In fact, this is also a helpless thing, cultivators can rely on their own strength to go to the deep mountains and old forests to find rare medicinal materials, one plant may exceed a thousand taels, and there is money to spend at any time, this exception, after all, few cultivators will sell cherished medicinal materials for money. The way for ordinary people to change is to study and become officials or worship a certain sect to become cultivators, while some people with poor qualifications are targeted for oppression, which also causes the gap between the rich and the poor to become wider and wider.

It didn't take long for the three dishes to be served, and the color and flavor were all the same. Shen Xin said: "Shopkeeper, serve a pot of tea." ”

"Okay, wait a minute, a pot of high foam. "Gao, Gaomo, a noun I haven't heard in a long time.

Shen Xin never drinks if it is not a brotherly gathering, and every time he eats, he replaces wine with tea and tastes it slowly. After a while, Da Zhuang personally brought a bowl of old bacon over, this salty taste can almost be smelled with his nose, Da Zhuang said slowly: "Guest officer, your dishes are ready, please use it slowly, this bacon is our ancestral secret recipe, a small bite can eat a big bowl of rice, please taste it." ”

Da Zhuang was about to leave, but Shen Xin stopped and asked, "Is there any soup?" ”

"Yes, green vegetable and radish soup. What do you need? Da Zhuang replied directly without thinking, it seems that he remembers these dishes clearly.

Shen Xin said yes. After Da Zhuang left, the Yin-Yang Mirror couldn't hold back his laughter anymore echoed in Shen Xin's body: "Haha, this stupid boy has the style you had back then, I still remember your radish shredded vermicelli soup, fried garlic with leeks, leek and garlic soup, and black fungus white fungus soup." ”

Shen Xin blushed a little and said secretly: "Shut up!"

After a while, Shen Xin had almost eaten, and Xiao Di also came over, and said, "Guest officer, the room prepared for you has been taken care of, turn left on the second floor and send it over at night." "Xiao Di's voice is really pleasant.

Shen Xin said gently: "Thank you Miss Xiaodi, how old is Miss Xiaodi this year?"

"Xiaodi is ten years old this year. Xiao Di smiled and said, very cute little girl.

Shen Xin came to his room, a half-old room, a clean bed, a pot of hanging baskets, the whole looked very comfortable, Shen Xin patted the dust on his body, meditated on the spot, the surrounding aura was not bad, and it could form a visible aura vortex outside the dantian. Of course, it is also related to Shen Xin, Shen Xin's original cultivation was more than that, and he was already a true yuan when he first started cultivating, which caused Shen Xin to have an inexplicable attraction to the aura of heaven and earth.

Soon, in the evening, Shen Xin also woke up from meditation, and someone was knocking on the door outside, and a pleasant voice said, "Guest officer, are you coming down to eat?"

Shen Xin replied, "Okay, Xiaodi, I'll come down in a while." ”

"Okay, I'll let Brother Da Zhuang cook, do you have any requirements?" Xiao Di asked again.

Shen Xin groaned: "Hmm... Light, preferably vegetarian. "The old bacon at noon is really salty, Shen Xin originally liked to be light, but he almost died after taking a small bite.

Xiao Di agreed and went down, Shen Xin tidied up his clothes a little, and estimated that he had to buy another set of clothes, but with his current realm, he couldn't make Qiankun bags, Shen Xin didn't like to carry a burden and go, and was planning to buy a new one, and then the old one was thrown away.

When I went downstairs, I saw three dishes and one soup on a table, all of which were vegetarian, with the same raw materials but different methods. The soup is cabbage and dried bean curd soup. Shen Xin also began to feel that Da Zhuang had the demeanor he had back then, and he was a little impulsive to teach some cultivation methods to this stupid boy, although he taught him, he wouldn't practice...

And there is a small table next to the counter, the three of the old men are crowded there, there is only one vegetarian dish on the table, and there is a small piece of bacon in each person's rice bowl, I saw Da Zhuang gently smack the bacon, and then pulled a large mouthful of white rice, chewed a few times and swallowed it, and then carefully picked up a vegetable leaf and put it in his mouth to chew and taste slowly.

Seeing this, Shen Xin couldn't help but feel a little sour, and deliberately poured the rice into the cabbage soup and stirred it to eat, but the three dishes didn't move. After eating, Shen Xin picked up the dishes and walked to the three of them, with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face, and said, "That, I ate too much at noon, and I can't eat it now." These three dishes haven't moved, so you can eat them. Afraid that they would be suspicious, he said to Da Zhuang, "The dishes in the evening are very fragrant, can you continue to cook these dishes at noon tomorrow." ”

Da Zhuang stood up and took the dishes, and slowly agreed: "Okay, guest officer." ”

The old man's eyes were different, he couldn't see what Shen Xin meant, but he was embarrassed to pierce it, so that both parties would look embarrassed. After a few bites, he poured all the dishes into Xiao Di and Da Zhuang's bowls. Xiao Di ate happily, I think it's been a long time since I've eaten so good.

"Shopkeeper, can you help me get a bucket of cold water? It's almost autumn, and it's still so hot, I want to take a bath with cold water." Shen Xin sat there drinking tea, looking at the teacup.

The old man said to Da Zhuang: "Why don't you hurry up and carry water for the guest officer." ”

Shen Xin Yuguang saw Da Zhuang pull all the dishes in the bowl into his mouth, so he slowly stood up to carry water.

When a wooden bucket was almost filled with water, Shen Xin said, "Da Zhuang, these are enough." ”

"Okay, guest officer, you use it slowly. Da Zhuang was about to leave.

Shen Xin grabbed Da Zhuang's shoulders and couldn't help frowning, Da Zhuang turned around and said, "What else does the guest officer have to order?" ”

"Oh, that's right. Shen Xin withdrew his hand, "This old bacon is very good." Can I please help me do more, um... A little more than a pound is enough. I'm going to eat it on the road. Oh, you take the money first. Shen Xin took out another tael of silver and prepared to hand it to Da Zhuang.

Da Zhuang shook his head and said: "Yes, I will collect the money when I finish it, the shopkeeper has taught me that I must pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and I can't pit the customer." After saying that, he left without replying.

Shen Xin's whole person except for his head was buried in the cold water, and the Yin-Yang Mirror asked, "What happened just now?"

Shen Xin shook his head: "I'll talk about it later." ”

Then he shouted in a low voice: "Dragon forbidden secret, reversed! forbidden!" The spiritual power converted into true yuan in the body drove the spiritual energy outside the body, and in an instant, the spiritual energy turned into a dragon-shaped chain and imprisoned Shen Xin's body. The aura around him disappeared into a vacuum, and the water also boiled at that time, just so that Shen Xin took a hot bath.

Shen Xin said to the yin-yang mirror: "You see, waste utilization saves a lot of things. ”

The yin-yang mirror was a little helpless: "You... ”
