Chapter 148: The Old Man Who Sells Medicine
Following Di Ting all the way, Shi Xing found that this place was the same as the city in ancient times above, but the things bought were strange, they were all unique specialties of the underworld that these scattered ghosts and wandering souls found out of boredom on weekdays, and many strange things were never seen by Shi Xing, and they couldn't even be named.
Di Ting, who was accustomed to it, looked like a curious baby's punishment, the corners of his mouth grinned slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Why, I didn't expect that the underground city is no different from the city above you." ”
Shi Xing nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "I really didn't expect it." ”
Di Ting said as he walked, "In fact, hundreds of years ago, this was not the case here, the reason for all this was just that the Emperor of Xudu ran to it, and after inspecting it for a while, he fell in love with the management model above, and after coming back, he gathered all the souls that could not be reincarnated, and replanned and established the city." ”
"I like the idea."
"Not only this city, but all the cities under the command of the Ghost Emperor have been managed in this way, and it has changed a lot in a few hundred years."
Shi Xing didn't wait for Di to finish speaking, and was immediately attracted by a crowd in front of him, "Di listens to seniors, there seems to be a bustle ahead, I'll go and take a look." ”
"Hey......" originally wanted to stop Shi Xing's Di Ting, but he didn't expect Shi Xing to burrow into the crowd like a loach.
Liudao walked over and said with a smile, "Time punishment is like this, sometimes mature like an older brother, sometimes like a child. ”
Di Ting had no choice, shook his head and sighed, and followed Liudao to come over.
It turns out that the reason why people are gathered here is because a vendor here is actually selling the legendary elixir, the Soul Rejuvenation Grass.
"I said old man, since you are setting up a stall here, you can tell me the price, how much longevity do you have for this soul grass, and you will change it." A ghost who looked like a middle-aged man yelled at the old man who was setting up a stall.
The old man who set up the stall frowned, shook his head and said, "I'm not returning the soul grass to exchange for yang longevity, but I want to meet someone who is destined and get something that is related to me." ”
"If you don't change your longevity, you still set up a stall, what do you mean."
"That's it, boss, leave him alone, this piece is all taken by our brothers, it's really not good, let's grab it."
When the middle-aged man heard the solidarity of the brothers behind him, his face looked a little good, and he threatened triumphantly, "I said, you old man, don't toast and don't eat and drink, you will sell it to me for ten years now, otherwise you will ......"
The old man still shook his head, and said in a very tough tone, "I won't sell it to you." ”
"I said old man, I think you want to die."
"That's it, brothers, copy guys."
Standing on the sidelines, Shi Xing also understood the general situation of the matter.
It turned out that in order to form a standardized commercial system underground, the Emperor Xudu relied on his own rights to launch a set of Yangshou trading system, because the souls left in these cities are not allowed to be reincarnated, and the emergence of the Yangshou trading system has solved this embarrassing situation.
Emperor Xudu stipulated that every soul that cannot be reincarnated, as long as labor creates value, can be rewarded with a certain number of yang life years, and if a person has a yang life that can offset the sins of the previous life, he is allowed to be reincarnated.
This system has been implemented, and it has been well received by everyone, and many souls who had been muddled have begun to work hard, and the whole city has been revitalized.
And the old man in front of him is different from others, everyone is doing business here in order to earn enough yang longevity, but he doesn't want yang longevity, which makes the middle-aged man in front of him a little annoyed, isn't this funny.
"Old man, let me tell you, you must leave this soul revival grass behind today, and no one can speak well."
"Be careful." When Shi Xing saw that the middle-aged man and several young people behind him were about to add punches and kicks to the old man, he immediately jumped out of the crowd with a loud roar and blocked between the old man and the middle-aged man.
"Boy, who are you, I advise you to apologize to me now, otherwise we will clean you up together." The middle-aged man didn't expect that at this time, he would suddenly jump out of a Cheng biting gold, and his eyes looked at Shi Xing viciously.
Shi Xing looked at the middle-aged man, stood still, pointed at the middle-aged man's nose and scolded, "Are you embarrassed to bully an old man in broad daylight." ”
"Excuse me? He actually asked me if I was embarrassed. Little ones, tell him who I am. The middle-aged man looked at Shi Xing and suddenly laughed.
Behind him, a crooked-looking man heard the boss greeting, and immediately jumped out, pointing at Shi Xing and shouting, "Boy, let me tell you, this master is not an ordinary person, he is the younger brother of the captain of our Xudu City Guard, if you still want to live well, hurry up and get away, otherwise you will break your leg and lose a hand, then it will not be something that your buddies can take care of." ”
"Threaten me, since that's the case, then let's compare." After Shi Xing finished speaking, he was about to draw the giant sword from his wrist, when suddenly outside the crowd, an angry roar interrupted everyone.
"I want to see who has the courage to make trouble in the capital city."
"Listen to your lordship."
"Listen to how you came here."
"Who knows, but you say, who will be angry with Lord Diting."
"I think that if you are so kind, you will definitely help the old man."
"Not really, I think I might have to keep another ......"
When everyone saw Di Ting, they whispered and made way for Di Ting, so that Di Ting could pass through the crowd and walk in front of the middle-aged man and the old man.
Di Ting's eyes looked at the middle-aged man with a slight threat, and said, "Boy, I didn't hear clearly just now, who is your brother." ”
When the middle-aged man saw Nadi looking at him, the huge coercion made him feel that it was a little difficult to breathe, and the followers behind him were even more unbearable, and some even fell to their knees.
The middle-aged man had some strength, and under pressure, he said with difficulty, "I don't know if the truth is listening to the adults coming here, it's the small ones who are wrong, and I hope that the adults will listen to the adults, and the adults will not remember the villains, and let us go." ”
"Since you know it's wrong, don't get out."
As soon as Di heard a sentence, the pressure disappeared instantly, and the middle-aged man immediately took his little brother and fled from the crowd in embarrassment.
"Hey, senior, why did you let those people go, such a bully who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, should be repaired for a while." Shi Xing saw that he actually let the middle-aged man go, and he was a little puzzled.
Di Ting shook his head, "I also know that they should be taught a lesson, but after all, this is Xudu City's own business, and I can't care too much, it's all regulations." ”
Shi Xing waved his hand, "Okay, I see." ”
After speaking, Shi Xing walked up to the old man and sat down, "Uncle, are you okay?" ”
The old man raised his head, looked at Shi Xing, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face, "Young man, I'm fine, but you may be fine." ”
When Shi Xing heard the old man's words, he was a little unhappy, "Uncle, I just helped you, how can you curse me for having an accident." ”
The old man shook his head, "Young man, I'm not cursing you, I have this soul rejuvenation grass with me, but I've been waiting for you." ”
"Wait for me?"
"That's right, I'll wait for you."
"Why?"
"To save you."
Hearing the old man's words, Shi Xing turned his head to look at Di Ting a little speechlessly, "Senior, are the people below you talking so annoyingly?" ”
