Chapter Seventy-Four: Huo Xiaolan
Xu Meng walked on the official road, surrounded by passers-by rushing to the county seat, caravans buying and selling, villagers rushing to the market, students who traveled, and merchants carrying burdens to sell things.
It is said to be an official road, but it is only slightly smoother and wider than the path. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xu Meng looked at the majestic and simple city wall in front of him, five zhang high, stretching for a few moments, the quaint city wall is already scarred, and the Buddha can see a shocking battle from it, the passage of time gives the city wall a sense of heaviness, but it is not as strong as the weathered city wall.
The official road leads directly to the gate of the city wall of the county seat, the city gate is about three zhang high, the left and right width is also two zhang, there is a stone plaque above the city gate, there are three words on the book, Nanyang City, there is a column of soldiers standing guard on the left and right, and many people flow in and out from the city gate.
It was the first time Xu Meng had seen such a majestic city wall, and he felt very novel, and in modern times, these city walls were demolished and replaced with roads that extend in all directions.
"Hillbilly"
There was a sneer next to him, Xu Meng heard the sound and saw that it was said by a person in a convoy next to him, a tomboy look, looking only eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pink underwear inside, a dark blue coat simply draped outside, a string of long whips hanging from his waist, and his hair tied up on his head, which made the whole person look very cool.
Xu Meng picked his eyes and looked at the other party's chest, with two copper coins hanging from his shirt, but he was a two-money celestial master, according to Du Wenke, this tomboy is so young and a good seedling.
The tomboy saw Xu Meng's eyes on her chest, a little embarrassed, but straightened his chest, "Look at it, you haven't seen a woman." ”
Xu Meng frowned and replied, "I've seen women, but I've never seen a woman with such small breasts." ”
"You... You... You. The other party was obviously said to be in the middle of the scale, and Xu Meng was speechless angrily.
Xu Meng shook his head, didn't argue with the other party, and walked straight to the city gate.
Seeing Xu Meng ignoring her, the tomboy was even more angry, and was about to come up and reason with Xu Meng, but was stopped by the caravan boss who was watching the situation not good, "Huo Tianshi, Huo Tianshi, don't be like him." ”
Huo Xiaolan looked at Xu Meng's back hatefully, turned to the caravan boss and said, "The price of the escort this time will be doubled." ”
The caravan owner was dumbfounded, "Master Huo, why?" ”
Huo Xiaolan's eyes rolled, and she said confidently, "This time I met several demons on the way to the caravan, which is different from what I said before, I have helped you take care of these extra demons, do you have to add money." ”
The caravan boss looked at Huo Xiaolan helplessly, although the reason that the other party said was very far-fetched, but he also saw the other party's hard work along the way, doubling the price was not too much, nodded and agreed to the tomboy's request.
"Yay"
Seeing this, Xia Lan jumped and made a gesture, but Yu Guang glanced at the eyes of the rest of the team, coughed, and instantly put it away, making a steady look.
After the team owner finished settling the account, Huo Xiaolan hurriedly ran to the gate of the city, wanting to teach Xu Meng a lesson, but where was there still a trace of Xu Meng, so she could only look at the road Xu Meng had walked with hatred, and waved her fist, "Don't let me see you next time." ”
Xu Meng walked in Nanyang City, feeling very fresh, this is different from the environment of Mr. Zombie in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, everything is so historical, the hawkers on the street, the flow of people walking on the road, and the shops on both sides of the street are all scenes that are not in the late Qing Dynasty.
Xu Meng found a restaurant to eat, these days in Ping'an Village, he has simply eaten vegetarian, and now that he is in the city, he doesn't have to wronged himself.
Xu Meng went up to the second floor, found a position by the window, where you can sit on the scenery outside the building, ordered a few good dishes, and when waiting for the dishes, Xu Meng looked sideways at the window, enjoying the beautiful scenery comparable to the Qingming Riverside map.
Suddenly, a scene under his eyes attracted Xu Meng's attention.
"Boss, didn't he just steal a few buns from you, why did he beat him like this." A voice rang out.
Xu Meng looked over and found that a few children had no money to eat, so they were caught stealing the steamed buns of the boss of the buns, and when they beat people, they made a trip to bite the gold.
Kindness? Is that the tomboy just now?
Xu Meng found that this Cheng Biting Jin was none other than the tomboy who mocked him at the city gate, and looked at it with interest.
The boss was angry, "What do you know, my bun is two copper coins, they ate my half-cage bun once, I don't beat him, what if they come in the future, I am also a small business, this can't afford to lose." ”
Huo Xiaolan protected several children behind her, "Don't worry, I'll deal with him." He turned his head to the boss and said, "Isn't it just eating your half-cage buns, how much is it, I'll pay for it." ”
The boss squinted at Huo Xiaolan, "It's really rare to have such good people in these years, but I'm afraid that their kindness will be regarded as donkey's liver and lungs, and if you help them get ahead, they will laugh at you behind your back." ”
Huo Xiaolan waved her hand and said arrogantly, "No, boss, how many buns they ate, I'll give it to you." ”
The boss saw that he didn't talk about Huo Xiaolan properly, and he also shook his head, "I have eight buns in half a cage, a total of sixteen yuan, I see that you are kind, count you fifteen yuan." ”
"Isn't it just fifteen cents?" Huo Xiaolan put her hand on her waist and wanted to take out the money, but she felt empty.
Huo Xiaolan panicked, and hurriedly flipped through it, but she rummaged all over her body, but she still didn't find it, and turned her head to look at the child behind her, but where was there still someone, she had already run away.
When the boss saw this, he mocked, "A total of fifteen cents." ”
Huo Xiaolan was in a hurry, the money given by the caravan before and the money she praised were all in her purse, but now they are gone, where is there any money to pay the bill.
Seeing Huo Xiaolan's appearance, the boss also knew that Huo Xiaolan had no money, so he said helplessly, "I warned you before and told you to be careful, there were a few people like you who were fooled before, and they were just a group of wolves that couldn't be fed." ”
"So what now?" Huo Xiaolan didn't expect those children to be so excessive, and she helped them steal their wallets.
Now that my wallet has been stolen, not to mention that I can't find a place to stay tonight, I can have a problem with eating.
"I'll give you the money." Suddenly, a sentence came from above, and the two looked at each other in surprise.
"It's you?!" Huo Xiaolan was surprised, and recognized that it was the person who teased her at the city gate, and she didn't accept it, but the boss on the side said again and again, he didn't care who paid the bill, as long as someone gave money.
Sixteen copper coins flew from the second floor of the restaurant and flew straight to the steamed bun shop, but in an instant, sixteen copper coins fell on the counter of the steamed bun shop.
Huo Xiaolan was surprised, this hand seemed simple, but it required extremely ingenious techniques, and she thought that she couldn't use it.
This guy is also a Heavenly Master? But there are no copper coins, Huo Xiaolan is puzzled.
