Chapter 4 High profits come with high risks
However, this confusion and troubles completely disappeared the moment he stepped into the market town at the foot of the nearby Qiyang Mountain.
The book says that the mortal world is very lively, and it is really not a boast.
It's March now, the sun is warm, the breeze is gentle, blowing the willows on both sides of the bluestone street to dance gently, and all kinds of vendors on the street are selling a dazzling array of goods, which makes Ah Tao dazzled for a while.
"I really don't know."
Bai Zi squinted his eyes with contempt, and regardless of whether Ah Tao wanted to or not, he pulled her to the nearest cloth village.
"Hey! Don't pull and pull, don't you see everyone else looking at us? ”
Ah Tao found that where he passed, the people passing by looked like they were avoiding them, and there were a few girls dressed in flowers and branches, and the thin waist of the water snake covered the handkerchief and snickered.
Laugh at your sister! Ah Tao glared back unceremoniously, but she didn't expect the girls to laugh even louder.
Just when Ah Tao couldn't bear to roll up her sleeves and stepped forward to ask for an explanation, Bai Zi unceremoniously pulled her into the cloth village, and then pushed her to the big bronze mirror in the store, and couldn't bear to look at it directly: "You don't look at your appearance, I'm ashamed to be with you!" ”
Ah Tao looked at herself in the bronze mirror, stunned, her scattered hair bun was crooked to the side, her bangs were messy in front of her forehead, her torn sleeves were long and short on her arms full of small cuts, the scraped skirt was looming with white silk pants inside, and there was a broken leaf in her bare feet.
This is the image of the future dignified peach fairy for the first time in the world?
Ah Tao snorted, and heard her little heart "click" and shattered to the ground.
The proprietress of the cloth village is a kind person, so she invited Ah Tao to the inner room to measure her body, and picked out a few pink clothes for her to try.
This made Ah Tao very moved, she thought that the mortal world was not as terrible as Chang Ye said.
But just when she changed into new clothes and her mood improved slightly, she heard the proprietress outside say to Bai Zi: "This son, I think you should still take your sister to Dr. Qiu in Baicaotang to take a look, the disease of losing your heart and madness will be cured sooner." ”
Sure enough, people are unpredictable!
Tao heard the little heart shatter again.
Because Bai Zi bought three clothes for Ah Tao in Buzhuang in one go, the proprietress was in a good mood and helped Ah Tao recomb her hair and gave a peach wood hairpin as a discount.
Before leaving, the proprietress waved a handkerchief at the door and reminded very kindly: "Son, remember to go to Dr. Qiu!" ”
Find your sister's doctor!
Ah Tao turned around and glared at the proprietress fiercely, but was blocked by Bai Zi.
"Why don't you know how to repay your kindness?"
Ah Tao gritted her teeth and gurgled: "She said I was crazy!" ”
Bai Zi snorted: "You are really indecent like that." ”
Ah Tao rolled her eyes, and always felt that something was wrong: "But an hour ago, you obviously said that I was cute." ”
The corners of Bai Zi's mouth twitched, and he continued to play haha: "Oh? Did I say that? Delusion, illusion only. ”
If Ah Tao hadn't seen the blue sky in the daytime and the crowds surging, he would really want to stab him to death with a colorful cloak.
Later, she found out that it was wrong to miss the opportunity and not do it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Bai Zi said that he wanted to find a place to rest first, Ah Tao thought that she was eating and drinking anyway, so Bai Zi went. The inn's shopkeeper is a discerning person, and before he finished his inquiry, ......he looked at Ah Tao's round eyes, swallowed the next words, and immediately led the two to the two upper rooms facing north and south.
The equipment in the upper room naturally can't be compared with Changye's dormitory, but it is still much better than the book hall, Ah Tao looked around in the room, nodded, and agreed.
Bai Zi silently followed behind, touched the silver money bag that was not plump and began to say goodbye, and then greeted Ah Tao's murderous eyes, which frightened the corners of his mouth immediately rose, and he smiled extremely brightly.
"I said Peach Girl, I think we should talk."
After the second junior of the store withdrew, Bai Zi put on an expression that I was not wronged and sat down at the table of the eight immortals.
"What are you talking about?"
Although Ah Tao was very unhappy in his heart, he took the word because he was unfamiliar with his life.
Bai Zi didn't stop talking, and coughed lightly: "Look, I took you to the mortal world to eat, drink and have fun with a bodhisattva's heart, and I spent two silver to let you live in such a good inn, all because I met with you Peach Girl." But one yard to one yard, you promised to help me repair the demon lamp before, this matter, I think about it and think that it is a little difficult to complete it with your cultivation. But for the sake of your sincerity, I really can't bear to blow your kindness, or how about you think so? ”
After Bai Zi drooled for a long time, Ah Tao finally understood that he wanted her to be a demon lure bait to replace the vacancy of the demon search lamp.
"Ahh If the demon search lamp is broken, it can still be repaired! I only have one life! ”
Ah Tao jumped to her feet, the green tendons on her forehead burst out, and her eyes were eager to dig a hole in Baizi's body.
Bai Zi smiled very sincerely: "Peach girl, you must know that it is a merit to eliminate demons and demons for the people of Dawn, and the Buddha will remember it, and if it is not good, it will increase cultivation, and no matter how many living beings want to find such a good opportunity, they will not be able to find it." ”
Hmm, this made Ah Tao very excited, didn't she decide to follow Bai Zi to the mortal world to improve her cultivation?
"Will there be a fear for your life?"
Bai Zi thought for a while, and said in a serious tone of abduction: "High profits are accompanied by high risks, and the peach girl can not go if she is afraid of death, but I heard that living beings have to go through the catastrophe before they become immortals, but I am afraid that the catastrophe is much more difficult than catching demons." ”
"Then I'll go with you." Ah Tao clenched her fists, with a lot of blood in her heart, holding Ruo Chengxian's determination not to be afraid of death.
Bai Zi patted her on the shoulder very happily and encouraged: "Miss Peach is really good, then let's go downstairs to eat." ”
Ah Tao twitched the corner of her eyes, and silently counted five big white buns, two meatloafs, three oil films, two strings of sugar gourds, and a bag of candied fruit in her heart...... That guy didn't give her a bite, and now he has to go downstairs to eat.
Bai Zi seemed to see her thoughts, put his arm around her shoulder, and cried with a sad face: "My demon search lamp is broken, and I can only rely on the most old-fashioned method to collect information and see where the demon appears." ”
Can you gather information by eating? Ah Tao was speechless for a while, and let Baizi push him downstairs.
At dinner, the restaurant was buzzing with people, and the lobby, which had been quiet in the past, was now full of diners. Bai Zi took Ah Tao to sit at an empty table in a corner, and before his buttocks were hot, the conversations of people at a table outside the two tables floated over one after another: "I heard that Baicaotang has recently hired a new doctor, and his medical skills are good!" He saved the man who had been breathing for half an hour again......"
Ah Tao didn't hear anything wrong after listening to it for a long time, but she frowned when she saw Bai Zi, thinking that he was going to say two serious words, but she didn't expect that in the next second, this waste material took out a scimitar that looked very ordinary no matter how it looked, slapped it on the table, and said with a righteous face: "Peach girl, this is a short knife cast by thousands of years of dark iron, which can deal with any demon, you can take it for self-defense." ”
Without waiting for Ah Tao's reaction, Bai Zi continued, "You don't have to thank me, it's up to you in the future." After speaking, he shouted at the shopkeeper in a very chic and heroic manner: "Little Er, six catties of beef and two jars of twenty-year-old daughter red are sent to my room." Then in full view of everyone, he went upstairs very reluctantly.
Ah Tao felt that he couldn't afford to lose his face, so while pretending not to know, he indifferently picked up the scimitar, looked at it carefully, and suddenly found that the scimitar had not yet been sharpened......
Your sister is not only a waste material, but also has a hole in her head!
Ah Tao scolded thousands of times in her heart, and was thinking about how to lose this eye-catching knife, when she raised her eyes, her expression froze, could it be that she was so angry?
Outside the store, under the blood-colored sun, a familiar figure flew by from the sky, fleeting.
