Chapter 26: The Temple Fair
"If you want to be beautiful, my sister and I won't follow you every day, and when we have the entity, we will take a good look in this novel world. ”
"Don't worry, Makino, even if we materialize, no one will be able to see us except you. ”
"Well, that's for the best. With a sigh of relief in his heart, Makino turned and walked in the direction of the dormitory. "Alas, I have to find a way to fix the bed when I go back, and it makes my head ...... to think about it."
"Makino, why are you hiding here alone?"
As soon as Makino finished speaking, a dark shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and when he fixed his eyes, Shan Ruoshui was already standing leisurely in front of him.
Looking around, Shan Ruoshui curled his hair, and said with some confusion: "There is no one around here, who were you talking to just now?"
Pursing his lips and looking at Shan Ruoshui helplessly, Makino sighed and said, "Miss Shan, you seem to like to appear in front of others unexpectedly. ”
"What, scared you?" couldn't help but smile, Shan Ruoshui continued: "If you want to say something unexpected, I can't compare to you Muye, how did you reach the fourth rank of a beginner cultivator in just seven days?"
From a young age to a master, in Shan Ruoshui's opinion, no matter how talented a person is, it is absolutely impossible for him to reach the strength of the fourth order of a beginner cultivator from an ordinary person in just seven days, unless this person uses some unknown means.
"Luck, talent, hard work. Saying three words simply and clearly, Makino naturally would not tell Shan Ruoshui the truth of the matter.
However......
After taking a few steps forward, Shan Ruoshui stood in front of Makino, looked him in the eye and said, "I want to listen to the truth." ”
After saying this, Shan Ruoshui's right hand suddenly had a short knife condensed by spiritual power, and the tip of the knife was pressed against Muye's chest, and she continued: "Say, how did you do it?"
Psychic Material!
Looking at the spiritual power short knife in Shan Ruo's sailor's hand, Makino immediately had a general understanding of its strength. You must know that only after a cultivator reaches the Star Realm can he skillfully manipulate the spiritual power in his body and make it change into the state he wants.
Looking down at the spiritual power short knife that was against his heart, Makino said with a light smile: "Miss Shan, you can't scare me like this, if you kill me now, no one can help you go to the treasure hunt." ”
Raising his hand and carefully pushing away the spiritual power short knife in his heart, although Makino had a calm look on his face, he was actually a little flustered in his heart.
"I'm telling the truth, but there's one thing I didn't say. Actually, I had already started cultivating three months ago, and I had also taken a Heaven Breaking Pill that your master had left me, so that I had barely reached the strength of the fourth order of my current beginner cultivator. ”
Half-truths and half-truths, Makino knew that only in this way could it be possible to dispel Shan Ruoshui's suspicions about himself.
"My stinky master, left all the Heaven Breaking Pill to you?" Naturally, he knew the effect of the Heaven Breaking Pill, Shan Ruoshui changed his serious expression, and said angrily: "Hmph, it's really generous!"
"So, Miss Shan, you came to me specifically for this matter?" Seeing the opportunity, Makino even diverted the topic away from himself.
"Of course, it's not just for this matter, I heard that there is a temple fair in Sixiang Town, and I came to you to go with me. ”
"Huh?"
......
Pleasing performances, fragrant street food, and a variety of street stalls, the temple fair in Sixiang Town is really lively.
One left, one right, one front and one behind, Makino and Shan Ruoshui walked on the crowded streets, and their eyes were dazzled by the prosperous scene around them.
"I didn't expect it to be so lively here, but it has a bit of the taste of the former hometown pedestrian street. ”
When Shan Ruoshui first spoke, the first reaction that popped into Muye's mind was actually refusing to come to the temple fair with the former. But after thinking about it in his heart, he finally agreed. Anyway, this is also an opportunity to get along with Shan Ruoshui up close, and maybe you can get some useful information from the other party in the small talk.
"Makino, why do I think about it, I always feel that something is wrong with you. Walking in front of Muye, Shan Ruoshui took a sugar gourd in his left and right hands, and while looking around, he said casually: "Don't say anything else, how did your hair grow so long in seven days?"
"Miss Shan, you really have a lot of things to do. Sighing lightly, Makino shook his head and smiled, "If you want to say something wrong, I think you are much more mysterious than me." I still can't figure it out, why would you come all the way back, really just to ask me for help?"
Obviously hearing the meaning of the other party's words, Makino simply gave the other party the same question. For a while, the seemingly simple small talk between the two came to an abrupt end.
However, just when the two of them were silent for a short time, there was a noise in the distance.
"Old woman, who allowed you to set up a stall here?"
"Yes, who allowed it? Did you pay the booth fee?"
Not far away, several big men were surrounding an old lady with dark skin and thin body, who was holding a bamboo basket with both hands at this time, and said very carefully: "Booth fee? ”
"Previous years are previous years, and if you want to set up a stall here this year, you have to pay a booth fee!"
"Well, I'll move somewhere else. Trembling and standing up from the ground, the old lady walked out step by step with her column of oranges in her arms. But before he could take a few steps, the big men blocked her.
"Old woman, you have set up this stall, how can you leave without paying the money?
"Ah, ten copper coins?" the old lady shook her head again and again, and said, "I sold oranges here for a day, and I only earned five copper coins." Boys, I really don't have any money for you!"
"That's not good, if we don't take your money, the stall owners around here won't agree. And didn't you earn five copper coins? Leave the money and the oranges, and you're gone. ”
"No, no. Shaking her head again and again, the old lady was very flustered and stepped back and said, "That money is reserved for my grandson, I can't give it to you, I can't give it to you!"
"Stinky old woman, I see that your bones are itchy, who is asking you if you can do it! Come on, grab me the money and oranges!"
Under the leader's order, several big men beside him surrounded the old lady. The people around him were very annoyed when they saw it, but they dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.
"Stop!" With his hands on his hips, Shan Ruoshui didn't know when he had already stood behind several big men, only to see him holding his head high and saying loudly: "My eldest brother Muye has something to say to you!"
