"Ding, the twenty-sixth floor has arrived."

With a gentle announcement, the elevator door slowly opened, a cool breeze blew on the face, and the three people in the elevator shivered at the same time. Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu Dingshen looked at each other, and all they saw in their eyes was the familiar dimness.

Ah Fu pressed the elevator door with one hand, leaned out half of his body and looked left and right, then beckoned to Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu, and said softly: "Mr. Xu, Miss Xu, it's safe here, you guys grab my clothes and come with me." ”

Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu obediently grabbed Ah Fu's clothes with one hand, hunched their waists slightly, and carefully followed Ah Nu into the darkness.

"Annoyance, are you sure we're in the right place?" Qiu Qiong asked worriedly.

"Of course, Miss Xu, don't look at the ghost here now, in the past, this place was brilliant!" Ah Fu is a little proud and regretful.

By the light of the sporadic opening of a few shops, Qiu Qiong's eyes widened, and she glanced around, only to see that there were shops separated by iron plates all around. Although each shop is not large, judging from the ornate signboard of each one, they have indeed been glorious as Ah Fu said.

But now, except for a few shops that opened and caused accidents, the rest of the shops have long since closed down, and the words "closed door" are still sprayed on the gates. It seems that the merchants who used to make a living here finally chose to leave, and they were also very helpless and reluctant.

The three of them made it all the way to the end in the dark and came to the door of a grocery store that seemed to have everything. There was only one silver-haired old man in the door looking at the store, and I saw him lying on the easy chair with Erlang's legs crossed and napping, while holding a teacup with hot tea in one hand and a bamboo fan in the other hand to fan the wind slowly.

Ah Fu gently knocked the doorbell on the wall, the silver-haired old man was excited, opened his eyes suddenly, hurriedly put down the teacup and fan, bounced up with a "swish", hurried to the front of the stage, barely supported his spirit on his face, squeezed out a standard laugh, and said loudly: "Welcome to the streamer grocery store, guests, do you need any help?" ”

Ah Fu touched the back of his head with one hand and chuckled, "Uncle Qian, it's me." ”

The silver-haired old man named "Uncle Qian" was stunned for a moment, looked Ah Annoyed up and down for a long time, shook his head suspiciously, and replied affirmatively: "I don't know you." ”

"Huh? Why don't you know it! I used to come to you a lot to buy things! Ah Fu exclaimed.

"Coming here a lot? That...... Maybe it's because I'm too old to forget. After that, Uncle Qian turned his head, looked at Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu, and said with a smile, "Looking at the appearance of the two, they must be born, I don't know what you came to me to buy?" ”

Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but feel surprised, how did this old man see at a glance that they were raw, could it be that the words "people from other towns" were written on their faces?

Immediately afterwards, Lao Xu took out his beloved notebook from his pocket, turned to a page that recorded the brand of milk powder, handed it to Uncle Qian, and said in a deep voice: "That...... We want to buy this milk powder, do you have it here? ”

Uncle Qian narrowed his eyes, glanced at the information of the milk powder, then sighed, shook his head and said: "Alas, I remember this brand of milk powder, which is characterized by its rich nutritional content, so it was sold out not long after the water was cut off." You're only here now, it's a little late. ”

"Ah, the snatch?" Qiu Qiong's face suddenly darkened, and she lowered her head in frustration.

Ah Fu was also disappointed, and after sighing silently, Ah Fu suddenly remembered that this Uncle Qian had a very wide network, although this kind of milk powder was no longer available in his grocery store, it didn't mean that he couldn't get it.

"Uncle Qian, these two guests are from lazy town, they really need this milk powder urgently, do you know where it is?"

Uncle Qian glanced at Ah Fu, and snorted coldly: "You kid, just make trouble for me!" ”

"Uncle Qian, you remember me!" Ah Fu said in shock.

Uncle Qian pointed at Ah Fu, and scolded with a red face: "I can't remember you!" Every time you show up, you don't bring me any good things! ”

Although Uncle Qian was reprimanding Ah Fu, his words seemed to be tactfully said to Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu. According to him, it may not be so easy to get that kind of milk powder. Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu glanced at each other, and their hearts were half cold.

Qiu Qiong's face became darker and darker, and her eyes gradually lost their light, for a while, she felt so helpless, and she felt so dazed, thinking, isn't it just to find a can of milk powder, why is it so twists and turns, so difficult?

At this moment, Lao Xu put one hand on Qiu Qiong's shoulder, smiled at her and nodded, as if encouraging her, and said gently: "It's okay, everything is the best arrangement." ”

Ah Fu hurriedly waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Uncle Qian, you misunderstood, I'm not here to trouble you." It's Mr. Xu and Miss Xu that they really need to bring back the milk powder, and now they can't find it in the copper ring, so I brought them over to you. You're so powerful, even if you don't have it here, you know where it is! Uncle Qian, think about the current situation, they are still willing to take such a big risk, you can help them. ”

Uncle Qian pursed his lips and replied with a displeased face: "You kid, what you said lightly, how do you want me to help?" My men were either starving to death or dying of thirst, and the rest were captured by the guards! What a supernatural power, that was a few months ago! I'm alive now, it's good! Look at how many of these shops are closed! You still want my little broken shop to close down! ”

Ah Fu scratched his head with both hands, and replied with an extremely distressed expression: "Uncle Qian, I didn't mean that...... I mean......"

The meaning of this Uncle Qian is obvious, it is too risky to find that kind of milk powder, and if you are not careful, you will lose your business. But the more he said this, the more certain Qiu Qiong was in his heart, just as Lao Xu said, the people in their greedy town would never refuse to benefit from the door, only enough water, and they were not afraid that they would not be able to find a can of milk powder.

"That's enough." Qiu Qiong stopped Ah Annoyance and interjected, "Listen to Uncle Qian, we can't buy this kind of milk powder we want." I would like to ask, can other milk powders be bought? ”

Uncle Qian looked bitter for a while, and replied with great embarrassment: "It is impossible to buy other milk powders." ”

"Okay." Qiu Qiong said, took out two bottles of water from her bag with an extremely indifferent expression, put them in front of Uncle Qian with a "bang", and continued, "Can you buy it now?" ”

It was two large bottles of water, equivalent to four gold bars and pestles in front of him, Uncle Qian was so frightened that he took a breath of air, and almost stared out of his eyes in shock, all the blood and qi surged up to his head for a while, and his legs immediately became weak and weak. Fortunately, Ah Annoy's eyes were quick and he grabbed his shoulders with both hands, otherwise, he would have had to fall hard to wake up.

"This, this, this...... Miss Xu, where do you get your water? Uncle Qian exclaimed.

"Hah! Isn't it just water, I still have it here! As he spoke, Lao Xu also took out two bottles of water from his bag and slapped them on the countertop in the same way.

"Oops...... That's a lot of water! Uncle Qian was overexcited for a while, a wisp of white smoke rose above his head, and then, without taking a breath, his eyes rolled instantly and he fainted.

Seeing this, Ah Fu hurriedly picked up Uncle Qian with both hands, put him flat on the easy chair, and fanned the wind vigorously.

"Ouch, you greedy people, you really can't see water now." Lao Xu joked, "One is crazy when you see it, one is crazy when you see it, and the other is this one, you fall when you see it!" ”

"Lao Xu, don't say that. According to what you say, what kind of annoyance is it? ”

After thinking about it for a while, Lao Xu still shook his head and said, "Hey...... Nana, you're right, this kind of reaction and situation is really difficult to classify, it's barely normal. ”

Ah Fu nodded with a wry smile, and whispered: "Alas, Yun Yi and I can barely be considered normal, because there is still some drinking water in the inn." If we hadn't been lucky enough to do this, we'd be like everyone else now, either crazy or dead. ”

Qiu Qiong's heart tightened, frowned slightly, and said with a serious face: "Annoyance, I believe that there must be some reason behind this greedy suppression of water cut-off, if you investigate carefully, you will definitely be able to figure out what caused it." ”

"Let's check it ourselves?" Ah Fu sighed helplessly and replied: "There were people who organized it before, but then there was no news of all of them, and no one came back. We all suspect that the people above have arrested those who want to investigate. The people above are not in a hurry, what is the use of us ordinary townspeople being in a hurry. Now, no one dares to investigate...... That's all there is to it......"

Qiu Qiong's face sank, and then sighed: "This can only be done......"

From this sentence, Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu both experienced the helplessness of Ah Annoyance, and also realized the helplessness of many townspeople.

"Ahh At this time, Uncle Qian suddenly woke up, only to see him sit up straight suddenly, and shouted to Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu in front of the stage, "Buy!" You can buy as much as you want! Mr. Xu, Miss Xu, how many cans of milk powder do you want? ”

Qiu Qiong was stunned for a moment, secretly happy in her heart, but she still maintained an indifferent look on her face, and said disdainfully: "Hehe, you just said that it was impossible to buy, why did it change in the blink of an eye?" ”

"Oh, just now the little one has eyes and doesn't know Taishan, Mr. Xu, Miss Xu, just forgive the little one! The small ones are guaranteed, no matter what, the little ones will be brought back to you! ”

Lao Xu frowned, raised his hand, and asked with a little uneasiness, "Where are you looking for it?" ”

"The small one has a few friends from the central area! They must have it on their hands! I believe that the small one is satisfactory to you, but it may not be so fast...... But no problem, you can send the little ones to Lazy Town! ”

"Still home delivered? It's true?! Qiu Qiong and Lao Xu exclaimed at the same time.

"No problem, it's just ......" Uncle Qian raised his thumb and index finger and rubbed it slightly.

Lao Xu chuckled and nodded, and said with a satisfied face: "I understand, I understand, as long as you deliver the milk powder, you can give as much water as you want." ”
