In the early morning, it was drizzling, and the downtown area shrouded by oil-paper umbrellas was still bustling and noisy in the past, and the sound of buying and selling was endless.

On both sides of the red gate, two guards in silver armor are facing each other, each holding a red tasseled spear with a tall head in his hand, and his head is jerked forward from time to time, as if he is taking a nap.

Stepping through the corridor, Zhou Nian went straight inside, although the guards at the door were really a little uncomfortable with the care of the façade, but as soon as he entered the inner hall, the atmosphere was a little out of place with the coldness caused by the gray weather outside, a young man in his early twenties greeted him with a smile, and the Venerable Master was also happy, a pair of big black eyes glanced at the young man in front of him who was not good-looking and slightly shabby, his smile stiffened slightly, but he quickly picked it up again, and slightly restrained the disdain that had just sprouted in his heart, and stretched out his hand with a smile and made a gesture of please, "Hehe, this little brother, welcome to our Ten Thousand Bones Line, what do you need, please take a look, our Ten Thousand Bones Line is a century-old store in the City of Water, is the largest local animal skin and animal bone exchange, the price is reasonable and fair, Tong Su is not bullied, you can buy things from us, please put a hundred hearts, to ensure that you are satisfied with the purchase, with peace of mind. ”

He remembered that he was familiar with this polite words, and it was also because he was a child who was tempered in this ten thousand bones, and he had received the guidance of the old-timers, no matter how stupid he was, he would also learn a little bit of extremely useful hospitality.

Zhou Nian reached out and touched his arms, then took out a list he wrote last night and handed it over, "I want these things, I don't know your store, do you have them?"

The young man took it and took a closer look, his brows furrowed and he muttered vigorously, "Uh...... Yes, yes, but at this price...... Can be a bit pricey. ”

After speaking, he dropped the paper down, his eyes peeked at Zhou Nian and quickly fell somewhere else, a simple eye switch seemed to question the other party's purchasing power, but it was difficult to say clearly, for fear that there would be a special example of "real people do not show their faces", so "vaguely" muttered, it is rare to be confused, and sometimes it is also an excellent way for smart traders to entertain customers.

Zhou Nian raised his eyebrows, patted his chest and directly dispelled the young man's concerns, he knew that he could pretend to be an uncle in any auction house with tens of millions of money, but he low-key failed to show too much of the arrogance unique to nouveau riche full of copper smell, "Don't worry, as long as the things are good, I don't care how much money is." ”

"Oh?" the young man frowned when he heard this, and suddenly felt a little glad that he didn't judge people by his appearance just now, and the smile on his face was even richer than before, and the posture of holding the list with one hand was now very neatly turned into holding it with both hands, and he was extremely sleek to highlight his respect for the other party from the details, "Hehe, in this case, that little brother, please wait here for a while, and I will come when I go." ”

After saying that, he ran inside, running a slow step and feeling a little snub to the guests, rushing in a hurry, bowing his head and shuttling in the familiar inner room, thinking that he could go unhindered on his familiar territory, but he didn't expect that people miscalculated, horses stumbled, and the more self-righteous the place, the easier it was to stab Lou Zi, and accidentally bumped into the two guests who came on.

"Boom!"

The two guests came hand in hand, a man and a woman, the woman was very beautiful and very slender, and the man was very delicate, with two small mustaches, which looked a little white.

The two of them themselves were also immersed in the variety of goods around them, walking with their heads tilted and slanted, patronizing and admiring, they did not expect to bump into a young man in such a spacious inner room!

According to the thin body shape of the young man, no matter how fast the speed is, it will not hit the tonnage formed by the two side by side into a butt squat, but the two people on the opposite side are thinner than the young man, and the young man is very fast, causing mutual harm is inevitable.

"Ouch, you ......"

The little white face was in pain, and he stretched out his hand to point at the little guy before he got angry, but the girl next to him jumped up from the ground one step ahead of him.

"Dengzi, you are blind!"

The girl's temper is obviously more anxious than the little white face, jumping up and opening her mouth to scold, not only to scold, but also to fight, stepped forward and grabbed the young man's neck and lifted it up, and actually lifted the other party from the ground.

She is not as tall as the young man, so she naturally can't let the other party's feet off the ground, but although she is not tall, her strength is not small, and a pale white aura directly chokes the young man's throat along her arm.

The young man was very scared, his strength was not good and he was unreasonable, so he hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, two distinguished guests, the villain has no eyes, he doesn't walk long, he offended the two, and please bear with me." ”

"Bear it, hum, it's easy to say, you bumped into the two of us, and a word of sorry is over?" The girl didn't give in, just a small friction actually made her liver angry, and I don't know why.

The young man was so frightened that he trembled, the other party's unrelenting posture was not the kind of master who could perfunctory things with a few apologies, and swallowed his saliva hard, but he looked like a frightened quail, "You...... If you don't accept my apology, what do you want? ”

"How is it?" The girl raised her eyebrows, and the cunning that suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth made the little guy feel furious when he saw it, and the jade hand pushed the little guy back, just like throwing out a little chicken, and said, "Hmph, since you yourself say that you have eyes and no beads, then I think your two eye bubbles are useless, why don't you buckle them out and throw them on the ground and let this girl step on them as bubbles?"

"Huh?" the young man opened his mouth wide in horror, he had received countless guests in his life, how could he have met such a ruthless master?

"Spare your life?" The girl pretended to be curious, and the tone of her voice suddenly became a little yin and yang, "I didn't say that I wanted to take your life, I just need a pair of your eyes." ”

"You ......"

"What am I? Do you want to deduct it yourself, or do you want me to do it myself?"

The girl approached, the anger on her face was undisguised, and her clenched fist was just about to swing out, and behind her, the little white face suddenly shook her head and patted her shoulder with a wry smile.

"Forget it, Chun'er, he didn't mean it, just spare him this time. ”

"Spare him, since he has the audacity to hit me, why should I spare him?" The girl turned her head and stared at the little white face as if she was playing with a petty character.

Xiao Bai's face frowned, put his hand on the girl's shoulder, and suddenly increased a little force, leaned into her ear and said in a low voice, "Forgot the agreement between you and me to come out?

"But Xia'er, he ......"

"Well, don't you still want to make this matter all over the city, and everyone knows about it? If that group of people knows, then the matter of our elopement will be exposed!"

The little white face did not show weakness, and slowly put down his hand after speaking, giving the girl a little time to think.

With the persuasion of the little white face, the girl really lowered her head to weigh the priority of the matter, and it would have been a big fart to be hit all of a sudden, but what she was worried about was not this, but the true identity of the little white face, afraid of being known by the little guy.

After a moment of silence, the girl raised her head slightly, and glared at the young man in front of her fiercely with cold eyes, as if she was a little unwilling to give up on this matter, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence from between her teeth, "Hmph, count yourself lucky, for Xia'er's sake, this time this girl will spare you, and give me a little vigilance when I walk in the future, otherwise ....... understand?"

As she spoke, she laid her palm flat on her neck and scratched it, and the meaning was obvious.

The young man got the other party's "amnesty", and immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Yes, yes, thank you for the girl's teaching, the villain remembers, I will definitely slap my eyes when I walk in the future." ”

"Get out!"

"Yes, yes. The young man nodded again and again, and quickly got up from the ground and walked away.

However, he wanted to leave, but there was one person who did not give up, not a girl and a little white face, but a woman in Tsing Yi who suddenly came out of the crowd with a smile on her face, grabbed the little man's arm, and dragged him back from the front.

"Hehe, Xiaochun, Zhixia, after leaving our Wanhuafang, your temper has become more easy-going, is this to change yourself from the bones?

The woman looked like she was twenty-three or four-year-old, dressed in green clothes, her hair was tied into a standard bun, she was thinly powdered, she swept her eyebrows, and her gestures were full of a lazy sense of carelessness, and she didn't even bother to raise her eyelids a few times when she looked at Xiaochun and Zhixia on the opposite side, but just pulled the young man's jade arm, and a dark air flow was crawling along the other party's wrist to his shoulder, silently, and the undercurrent was surging.

Xiaochun and Zhixia were stunned at the same time, and when they saw the woman opposite, they were both shocked.

"Xiqiu?is it you?" After a few seconds of silence, Xiaochun suddenly pushed Zhixia behind him, protected the other party with his body, and said vigilantly.

The woman who was called Xiqiu smiled, her jade hand flipped slightly, and she quickly took out a small purple gourd from her arms, took three wine glasses made of jade, poured three glasses of wine from the gourd and placed them on a small table next to her, her clear eyes swept over Xiaochun and Zhixia who was directly behind her, and said with a smile, "Hehe, Sister Zhixia, you are so handsome, if you are really a man, I can't help but be a little excited as a sister, today our three sisters meet again after a long absence, why don't you have a drink?"

The young man next to him was stunned when he heard this, and the conjecture in his heart before was quickly confirmed without hesitation, "She is really a woman!"

From the moment he bumped into the two of them just now, the little guy felt that something was wrong with the little white face, but he was forced by Xiaochun's threat, and he didn't dare to say it.
