[Part II: Spring and Autumn] Chapter 6: The First Journey to the Mortal World

After saying goodbye to Che Mazhi, I followed closely behind Jiu Suihe, and it was already noon at this time.

Seeing her walk into the downtown area, she went around and around, looking around, her face was full of joy. She stopped in front of a shop selling copper jewelry, curiously picked up a bamboo flute, and asked the grandma in the shop, "Grandma, what is this?" ”

"Girl, this is for bundling, come, you can wear it and take a look."

"Bundle your hair? How to wear it? "Jiu Suihe, who is new to the world, really doesn't understand anything.

After Grandma helped Jiu Suihe put on the bamboo flute, she picked up a bronze mirror next to her and handed it to her, "Girl, take a look." ”

Jiu Suihe looked at his beautiful self in the bronze mirror, with a happy face; "It's so beautiful, thank you Grandma!" After saying that, he went straight away.

"Hey, girl, come back, you haven't given me the coins yet!" Grandma stopped her.

Jiu Suihe turned back and asked; "What coin?"

"It's the coin that bought this bamboo pipe." There was a hint of doubt in Grandma's tone, did this girl not know the coin, or was she pretending to be a scoundrel?

Jiu Suihe looked dazed, didn't know how to answer, the scene was embarrassing for a while, I hurriedly stepped forward: "Grandma, do you think I can replace the bamboo flute?" "I pulled out a seashell. Thousands of years ago, Danque brought three or four of these seashells to me, and I saw that they looked good, so I kept carrying them, and I don't know if they could come in handy at this time.

Grandma took it with both hands, "Ah! This is a high-quality shell coin, which is equivalent to ten ordinary shell coins. This bamboo flute is also made of good materials, and it is worth a friend, and this girl's vision is not bad. As she spoke, Grandma handed me eighteen strings of seashells that looked inferior.

I took the eighteen strings of seashells and asked Grandma, "Grandma, can you tell us what this is?" Why do people here trade with this when they buy things? ”

Grandma replied with a surprised face: "This is a shell coin, which is used to buy things, and there is also a kind of cloth coin, there are two kinds of empty cloth and flat cloth." How could you not know this? ”

"Oh, we're from another country, we're here to play." I hastened to explain.

"No, countries like Qi, Chu, and South Korea all use shell coins and cloth coins."

"We don't need that in our country." I hurriedly pulled Jiu Suihe away.

"Thank you for helping me buy this bamboo flute." Jiu Suihe looked at me with a grateful face.

"You're welcome. Girl, seeing that you are not familiar with the place, why do you come here alone? "I pretended I didn't know her.

"I, I'm ......" Jiu Suihe was speechless for a while, "Who said I didn't know my life?" I'm here to find my friend. ”

"Oh? Have you found your friend? Need my help? It's dangerous for a girl of yours to wander around in this crowded place. ”

"What danger can there be in broad daylight?" Jiu Suihe said he didn't believe it.

"Why is it not dangerous? A few days ago, a few girls as old as you were drugged and arrested in the Qinglou. "I made up this matter indiscriminately, just to urge Jiu Suihe to be careful everywhere.

"Qinglou? What is Green House? Is it this kind of blue-tiled building? She asked, pointing to a few blue-tiled houses next to her.

"The life of the women in the Qinglou is not good, those who have talent are called 'Shuyu', and they only sell their arts, and those like you who have no talent and are quite beautiful are called 'Yi Er', and they can only be forced to sell themselves when they enter."

"Oh, you man." Jiu Suihe's face turned red, "Why are you talking so despicable." ”

"I want to remind you to pay attention to safety, why is it despicable?"

"What's your name?" Jiu Sui He diverted from this topic.

"I, my name is He Chun, what about you?" I casually said a name.

Jiu Suihe paused for a moment, "You just call me Sui'er." ”

"Sui'er, what a nice name." I complimented, "By the way, Sui'er, are you hungry?" I'll take you to eat. Anyway, I still have a lot of shell coins. ”

"Yes, yes! When I first took shape, my stomach was really uncomfortable, and I was very hungry. Sui'er was so excited that she said that she had leaked her mouth, only to see that she immediately covered her mouth.

"First in human form? So what was your previous form? "I'm deliberately funny.

"Wrong, wrong. Let's go eat. ”

I smiled slightly, led her to a liquor store, and walked in.

"Two guest officers, do you need something to eat?" The shopkeeper greeted us warmly.

"What do you have here?"

"Salted duck is our specialty, would you like one?"

"Okay, okay!" I said to the guys in the store, "Come up, we are hungry." ”

"Do you want to try our special wine here-Nanling wine?"

"What is wine? Drink or eat? "Jiu Suihe, no, Sui'er looked confused.

"The wine is made from fruit grains, and the taste is different, but the taste of our Nanling wine here is very mellow and rich, and the guest officer can taste it." The shopkeeper greeted him politely.

"Then another pot of Nanling Bar." I just wanted to taste it to see if the wine on earth was really that intoxicating.

"Sui'er, where are you from? Looking for any friends? I asked knowingly, just to see what she had to say.

"I'm here from a mysterious place, and I'm here to find my wishful husband!" Sui'er smiled harmlessly, "What about you?" Didn't you say that you were here to play in front of the jewelry shop before? ”

"Me? I'm also from a mysterious place, and I'm here to protect ......."

"Two guest officials are here!" The shopkeeper interrupted me.

"Protect my sweetheart." I whispered.

"What do you say? Eat, eat, eat! ”

Sui'er and I ate a lot, on the one hand, because of the hunger after turning into human form, and on the other hand, because the food was really delicious.

The shopkeeper helped us pour the wine into two bowls, and suddenly a rich fragrance wafted out. Sui'er picked up the bowl and took a big sip, "Wow! She immediately frowned, "This is what you mean by fine wine?" It was so unpleasant, my throat was so uncomfortable, it felt like it was burned by fire. Water, I'm going to drink water. The shopkeeper immediately brought a bowl of water, and Sui'er drank it all.

Looking at Sui'er like this, I couldn't help but smile, so cute. I took a sip of the bowl full of wine, found it tasted good, and drank it all, and then I drank the rest of the jug.

"Is it delicious?" Sui'er looked at me suspiciously.

"It's delicious, mellow and lush, and the softness in the mouth is really evocative! Sui'er, if you can't get used to drinking, don't drink it, eat more food. I smacked my mouth in contentment, savoring it.

The meal cost me three penciels, and when we were full of food and drink, we both hung around.
