Chapter Seventy-Eight: No Goods I Want

The three of them discussed some more details about going up the mountain, and it was not until the main courtyard came to pass the dinner that they realized that it was already evening.

In the evening, several people told Mrs. Bai about the plan, but Mrs. Bai didn't say anything, but just asked when the miracle doctor would arrive.

Yan Zhuo was also a little puzzled, saying that a few days later, four or five days had passed, and there was still no news in the city.

But she wasn't too anxious, Doctor Fang had always had a personality, and she would definitely come back, just because she was delayed by something.

Zhizhi heard that they were going to Baiyun Village in Daqi Mountain, and they were also clamoring to join in the fun. Naturally, I have to follow with all my life!

Yan Zhuo thought that she was not inferior anyway, so he agreed.

……

It was July 28, and there was a little autumn rain in the morning, which was cool, and the summer heat was completely gone.

Not long after the gate of Haicheng City opened, there was an endless stream of merchants and traders in the streets and alleys, taking advantage of the cool to start all kinds of business.

Babao Lane in the southwest of the city is a place for antiques and strange goods, with pawnshops, stationery and thrift shops lined up one after another.

The rich and powerful have a big face, and there are all kinds of treasures in the mahogany cabinets.

There are also people with cloth bags sitting against the wall along the street, putting out the baby or shouting or shrinking aside and waiting for people to come up and take a look.

There is a wide variety of goods.

There are bamboo slips of the pre-Qin period, bronze swords of the Warring States period, bronze pieces of chariots and horses of the Han Dynasty, porcelain pillows that Yan Yuan slept on, fans played by Xi Shi, and wine drows that the concubines drank...... Only you can't think of it, and you can't buy it without you.

A man with a hood carrying a large burden on his shoulders and a long knife dangling at his waist hurried through the streets and alleys, attracting a series of curious glances.

The burden is heavy, and this person is full of murderous energy, and he thinks it is a good product.

Everyone thinks so, and they don't know if he wants to sell it alone or by picking up stalls.

Hanako, a little boy who was wandering through the streets, looked at the man's back and blinked.

The man swerved left and right in the alley, and only stopped at the end of an inconspicuous broken street.

There was a small shop, only half of the black wooden door was open, the oiled paper on the ridged windows had long been dim and faded, and the room was dim and dark, and it was impossible to see people.

"Shopkeeper, ship." The man knocked at the door.

A person came out of the back room, squinted at him, and whispered, "Coming?" ”

"Hmm." The man closed the door casually.

At this moment, the little Hanako came over and gently drew a cross on the corner of the wall with red wax, and then quickly walked away.

"Let's go!" The man beckoned him to come inside and sit down on the couch, "No one here is here anyway, and the lock is attracting attention." ”

The man opened the door again, came over and put the burden on the bamboo couch, and said angrily: "Good fellow! Guess what I found in it? ”

The shopkeeper who came out was a hunchback, sitting with a hunched waist like a shrimp, and trembling when he heard the words, "What? ”

"The Emperor's Spiritual Tablet! There are a lot of treasures there, worthy of the heavenly family, and sure enough, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse! Even if we are forced to die, this treasure is enough for us to eat for a few years! ”

When the hunchback heard that it was this, he didn't react, and rummaged through his baggage, "Have you seen a jade carving?" There's a bead embedded in it. ”

The man pulled into the pile of gold and jade devices, "It's all here, there are gold beads, jade balls and pearls, see if there is anything you said!" ”

Hunchbacked, a little disappointed, shook his head, "Searched all the inside?" ”

"Of course!" The man was a little dissatisfied, "Will our brother make mistakes or omissions when he shoots?" Not to mention the inverted bucket, the ashes of the corpse have been touched, and the stone piers in the corners of the wall have been smashed open! ”

The light in the hunchback's eyes was a little dark, and he picked up a handful of jade Ruyi and played with it, muttering: "It's all top-grade, but did it alarm the Bai family?" ”

The man said: "It's also dangerous to say, we just finished touching the point when we met the Bai family to sweep the tomb, originally wanted to let this family fall into the water to have a good time, but I didn't expect them to secretly bring people, and the brothers were afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so they withdrew." ”

The hunchback nodded, indicating that he did the right thing, "The life of the Bai family is not valuable, what is valuable is the baby, don't lose the watermelon for a sesame seed!" Besides, if you can't find that thing in the pit, you can only force the Bai family to recruit it yourself. ”

He said as he took out a heavy box from the cabinet behind him, "This is the reward, I'll take some of this goods, and I'll fold it to you later." ”

The man wrapped the box in the baggage, lifted it up, and grinned, "Farewell!" ”

After he walked for a while, the hunchback looked at the pile of things again, and threw them under the counter casually, then got up and walked slowly to the back room.

The day passed quickly.

At night, the lights in front of the shop go out.

Not long after, the sound of sawing sounded from the wooden tether under the window, like a mouse gnawing on wood.

Then, with a soft sound of "click", a small figure opened the open window from the outside and came in, rummaging around the house, and suddenly turned over to a pile of jade pieces, and couldn't help but be happy!

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and the little figure rolled on the ground, curled up in a ball and shrank into another counter, right next door to the baggage.

The footsteps were accompanied by the sound of people talking.

"Do you take everything with you?"

"Take it away, don't leave a trace."

"Yes."

Then there was the sound of footsteps coming to the counter.

The small figure shrunk in front of him saw a pair of legs, and there was a large circle of black stains on the side of his trouser legs, and the strong smell of blood came to his nose.

The little figure held its breath.

Soon, the legs were carrying the bag and leaving, still returning the way they came, disappearing from behind.

The little figure rolled out, took a deep breath, didn't dare to linger any longer, and left quietly.

……

Before dawn on the second day, Yan Zhuo and several people were ready to set off.

first dressed up Bai Yu in the face, and Yan Zhuo personally groomed him.

This person's facial features were too heroic, so she had to cover him with more fat powder and make his facial features a little uglier in order to hide the delicacy.

When she opened the door and came out, Zhizhi saw a "woman" in a pomegranate red gauze skirt beside Yan Zhuo, with red lips and white teeth, combing hairpins and beaded flowers, and bulging chests, not to mention how delicate she was.

I was so stunned that I fell off my chair with a smile.

Even Bai Yi laughed and coughed.

Yan Zhuo is wearing a red riding uniform, holding a diagonal bun and inserting a simple bead hairpin, which looks neat and difficult to hide charming.

"Okay, right?" Yan Zhuo asked Zhizhi.

Zhizhi gasped with laughter, "It's okay, it's beautiful!" Fairy-like! It's just that the eyebrows are a little thicker! ”

Yan Zhuo looked at Bai Yu with a smile, "Or, shave?" ”

Bai Yu clenched his fists and glared at her, what kind of bullshit rules are there in the Jieling Gate?!

"Isn't it just pretending to be a woman?" He walked ahead with a black face, pretending to be calm and didn't care, "The uglier the better!" ”

"Ouch, you throat!" As soon as he spoke, Zhizhi couldn't stand up with a straight smile.

"Anyway, I'm only responsible for shooting, not for speaking." Bai Yu raised his hand.

Yan Zhuo looked at Bai Yu with satisfaction, he looked good, the only bad thing was that he was too tall, and he could only bend up when he walked.

It doesn't matter, as long as you don't search your body, you can adapt to the situation.

"Why are you all wearing so red?" Bai Yi smiled enough and asked.

Yan Zhuo also walked out, "The people who do their business are very particular and have a lot of taboos. One of them is to avoid killing the woman in red, because it is rumored that the woman wears red clothes and dies and is easy to become a ghost. ”

Each of the four rode a horse, chatting and heading to Daqi Mountain in the southeast.
