Chapter 8: The Cynical Storytelling
The next day, there was still a lot of traffic in front of the Fortune Inn.
Storytellers can still tell repetitive stories with no less fun.
Su Quan very much hoped that the female thief from last night would come again, he didn't go to listen to the story today, and there was still no shortage of seats in the inn.
Going to the old and welcoming the new, today's Fortune Inn has welcomed unprecedented guests.
Rong Chang hated to stop the ordinary sword in the inn, and first looked at every cloth-clothed person sitting there, whether he noticed anything unusual. Even if no one provoked him, his eyes were like red-hot copper bells, as if he had formed a grudge with everything in this world for thousands of years.
If you talk about a little bit of kindness, Rong Chang hated to come here.
Whose name is it for? Naturally, it's the name of the storyteller. Even if no one knows who the storyteller really is.
Rong Chang's buttocks were not yet hot, so the shopkeeper waved over and greeted: "Yo, guest officer, I know that it is the first time I come when I look at your dress, but I want to come to a treasure of our store - chasing son-in-law cake, and I want to go back to Jinling City to go to our store wherever you go in the future." β
"No need, just come to a Yandang tea peak." Rong Chang was not as happy as the shopkeeper, and his face was very pale.
The shopkeeper turned around, Rong Chang hated the "oh" in front of the table, and suddenly a delicate white jade disc was filled with fragrant pastries, and the unbridled smell in the air was enough to make people salivate. Rong Chang hated to look up to see where this plate of pastries came from, just in time to meet Ning Chuxun's smiling face:
"Senior Brother Rong, this pastry is very good, and the deliciousness should not be disappointed." At the same time, Ning Chuxun hid a sentence in his heart, "There are also beauties that cannot be disappointed", but it is not easy to speak.
"You know, I've never had a sweet tooth." Rong Chang glanced at him, he went down the mountain with the master's consent, but she must have "escaped from prison", "Chuxun, the master never allowed you to go down the mountain, you don't have to follow you in disobedience." β
Ning Chuxun smiled and retorted: "Senior Brother Rong said that I was tracking, but I am one foot in front and you are one foot in the back, how can I track?" β
"Then it's not right for you to go down the mountain without permission."
Ning Chuxun sat down next to Rong Changhe, "It's not right, it's not right, people are not sages, who can do nothing." There are stories about the Shentian Stone in the rivers and lakes, and I also want to see the market, so it's a big deal to copy the "Nine Songs, Mountain Ghosts" a few more times when I go back to the village. β
The shopkeeper brought the tea up, and saw that it was about to be served, when suddenly Xiao Er's hand turned over the tea cup and spilled on Ning Chuxun's dress, she was about to get up and blame Xiao Ermao's hands and feet, and her face was stunned when she turned her head.
"Say, where is the man who told the story here the day before yesterday?"
The masked man was pressing his sword against the neck of the shopkeeper, and the shadow of the blade showed a terrifying bloody light, which frightened the people in the inn to flee, and the only customers left Ning Chuxun and Rong Chang were not surprised. Ning Chuxun drew the sword handle in his hand, and when he wanted to see the injustice, he was stopped by Rong Changhe, "We are new here, and we will find out the situation before coming forward." β
Ning Chuxun nodded heartily.
Where did the coerced shopkeeper encounter this kind of battle, and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly: "... I don't... I don't know, he's a little beggar who eats, no... I don't know... When will he come back. β
"Uncle Ben is here, what advice do you have! What is the ability to embarrass an irrelevant person! There was a loud reprimand on the corridor, and then the words of the shopkeeper fell.
At the end of the sentence, they looked up, and the person who shouted was a little boy in rags, and before everyone could see his appearance clearly, they had already turned the corner railing and disappeared without a trace, like a furry monkey jumping into the trees and playing in the wild, chasing and killing people.
Ning Chuxun praised in his heart: "According to this storyteller's voice, he is also about the same age as me, and he has escaped to the sky in just a few seconds, and he is elusive, if he is placed in my Ningjia Villa to practice martial arts, Ah Yao's stupid person is really a joke." β
And I don't know where they fled to the street, Rong Changhe has never been a nosy person, and there is no follow-up.
The street was shining in the scorching sun, and the road surface was almost smoky. A banner of "All women, fortune tellers give silver taels" is so hot that it has no shape.
Fortune teller gift silver tael? And such a boring and loss-making business? This propaganda is really not false, and the people in the market can be regarded as having seen that "money is not worth anything"! Look at the two "old Taoists" who are fortune tellers, they are very raw, maybe they have just opened to solicit business!
If they take a closer look, in fact, the "old Taoist" of fortune telling is no stranger.
Ah Fu dragged the ill-fitting clothes, twisted and restless like catching lice, and when he was tired, he hung his head and blew a fake beard, or played with the inkstone on the table, and sometimes squinted his eyes and skimmed over the grease-smeared faces, and his ears really couldn't hear the torture sound of white flowers and silver.
And Su Quan pretended to be a fortune teller "looking for flowers and asking willows", and he was very busy!
"Young Master... No, Dao Chief, my respected Dao Chief, it's almost a day, what kind of woman are you looking for! I really can't wait to be reincarnated as a woman in the next life, and when I meet a gold owner like you, I only need to stretch out my palm and silver two to be in my pocket! β
Ah Fu complained and glanced at the woman who had just stood in the formation, picked up the bamboo stick with his right hand and tapped his palm while approaching: "Why, I want to be a repeat customer even if I get cheap, don't think that I don't know you if I change my costume!" It's too much to underestimate Uncle Ben's sharp eyes! After saying that, she waved bamboo sticks to drive people away, and the scolded woman left stupidly.
"Yo hey, my respected Dao Chief, look at those women who don't know what to do, they don't know how many times they have eaten and given silver!"
Su Quanbai glanced at him, signaled not to make any more noise, and then pretended to brush his fake beard, and said to the woman in front of him: "Girl, the lifeline of your palm extends to your arm, please raise your sleeves." β
The girl casually lowered her sleeves, and Su Quan didn't see anything unusual, so she gave the money and sent away.
Ah Fu's eyes were very aggrieved, "The money spent today is comparable to my annual work as a cow and a horse!" β
Su Quan grabbed Ah Fu with his elbow: "Don't make a sound!" Then he rolled his eyes and inadvertently glanced at Zhou Shumei in the crowd.
was entangled by the "goblin", and he couldn't live in peace for two days! Su Quan stuck out his tongue, hurriedly pushed the bag of silver to Ah Fu, and instructed: "I'll go shopping elsewhere first, remember, if you want to find a woman with an arm scar similar to me and an age similar to me, the point is that she can also do martial arts!" All three are indispensable! Don't target the butcher shrew with a broken hand just now! β
"Oh, I knowβthe way." Ah Fu reluctantly agreed, he really didn't want to be this laborious and money-consuming fool, "Dao Chief, you're so good!" He snickered at the young master and covered his head to take over the mess.
