Chapter 22: A Penny Stumps a Hero

"A sword stabs into the sky, just ask why it is not peaceful!"

In this last sentence, the old man's tone is high-pitched, and he hides Jin Ge, but it stops abruptly at the end, which makes people feel like chewing fragrant plums, and his mouth is full of relish, but the aftertaste is endless.

"Okay!" Someone shouted at the moment, but it was Chu Qiuli beside Xu Han.

After this shout, it was naturally responded from all over the crowd, and for a while, the cheers were endless.

The old man who sat behind the curtain hurriedly put away the things in his hand, carried a porcelain bowl and walked quickly to everyone, bowing to them one by one.

Xu Han really saw the appearance of the old man at this time, he was over the age of six, his hair was white, he was born with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and he was wearing a gray cotton jacket that was washed white, but it seemed that he had been wearing it for too long, and there were many tears in the shirt, exposing the snow-white cotton.

This is an ordinary craftsman, who lives on this mouth and hands.

The old man began to look for money, and walked past everyone with his porcelain bowl, which also looked a little old, and these spectators were quite satisfied, and most of them were willing to give a penny or two, and of course there were also those who were stingy or destitute, and walked away at this time, but the old man did not care, and thanked them with a smile.

Soon he came to Xu Han's side, bowed down, and lifted the porcelain bowl slightly.

"Meow!"

"Whew!"

Before Xu Han could speak, a cat and a wolf beside him shouted at Xu Han one after another, urging him.

Xu Han smiled helplessly, looked at Chu Qiuli beside him, and stretched out his hand without saying a word.

"What are you doing?" the middle-aged man looked at Xu Han with a puzzled expression.

"Take the money. Xu Han said as a matter of course.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this, and then he took out three copper plates from his arms and put them in Xu Han's hand.

It's just that this approach immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Xuan'er and Woo, and the two little guys widened their eyes and stared at Chu Qiuli viciously.

"Not enough?" the middle-aged man asked cautiously when he saw this.

Xu Han weighed the copper plate in his hand and squinted his eyes and said, "What do you say?"

In order to facilitate Chu Qiuli to come to Daxia to inquire about the situation, when he left, Xu Han gave Chu Qiuli all the seven or eight silver tickets of one thousand taels on his body, which should not be anything in Xu Han's opinion.

But Chu Qiuli had a painful expression on his face that he wanted half his life, and after a while, he took out a taor or two pieces of silver from his arms and put them in Xu Han's hand.

Xu Han smiled with satisfaction and handed the one or two pieces of silver to the bowl that the old man stretched out.

The crisp sound of the silver and the porcelain bowl colliding was obviously very different, so that everyone present looked sideways at that time, and the old man also looked up at Xu Han with a different color, and was about to thank him, but his eyes suddenly fell on Xuan'er beside Xu Han.

His gaze froze for a moment, and he looked at it for a long time before he sighed sincerely.

"This cat is good. As he spoke, his gaze sank and fell on Woo.

Lord Wolf hurriedly held his head high at that time, waiting for the same praise.

And the old man did not hesitate to praise his words, and said: "This dog is not bad." ”

"Woooo!!oo

......

In the end, Xu Han and Chu Qiu wasted their strength before pulling out of the crowd with anger, teeth and claws, and wanting to tear the old man to pieces.

It was getting late, and the bustling street was a little quieter, and the two walked side by side, the black cat was napping on Xu Han's shoulder, and the stricken whine followed behind him, drooping his head.

The lanterns on both sides of the street are still lit, swaying slightly in the night breeze, stretching the shadows of the group.

"Woo woo ah..." Xu Han glanced at the woo who seemed to have lost hope in the wolf life, and said out loud.

"Whew..."Wow's interest was not high, but he responded lightly, his head was still low, and even his tail hung down.

When Xu Han saw him like this, he was angry and funny in his heart, but on the surface, he still comforted him in a deep voice: "Woo, that old man is old, his eyes are not good, and it is normal to not be able to tell whether you are a wolf or a dog, you think about it, just look like you, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that your old man is an upright wolf, how can it not be a dog, right?"

I have to say that Xu Han's ability to comfort people is still quite set, and when he heard the words, he suddenly raised his head, and his eyes lit up. It tilted its head and called, "Huh?"

As if asking Xu Han, this might be true.

Xu Han nodded very firmly: "Naturally, can this matter be fake? ”

"Meow. Xuan'er called out very cooperatively.

The Lord Wolf King, who was affirmed by Xuan'er, suddenly regained his active temperament, and circled around Xu Han excitedly, quite a bit of joy.

Seeing this, Xu Han was a little relieved, and was about to take another step with Chu Qiuli to find an inn to settle in.

But at this time, a father and daughter suddenly walked past the group, and the little girl sitting on her father's shoulder was attracted by Sahuan's whine, and immediately pointed to the whine and said in a tender voice: "Daddy, that black dog is so cute, I want one too." ”

"Okay, Yan'er, when you grow up, Daddy will buy it for you. ”

The whimpering and running movement suddenly froze at that moment, and it froze for a long time, before it turned its head slightly stiffly to look at the father and daughter, and its eyes suddenly burst into a terrifying fierce light at that moment.

"Woohoo! Woohoo!!"

......

Xu Han and Chu Qiuli whispered sorry to the father of the scared crying girl for a quarter of an hour before they could get the other party's forgiveness.

The whin, who was hurt one after another, completely lost confidence in the wolf life, and Xu Han was quite helpless about it, after all, the howl that turned into an ordinary size was indeed a bit like a dog, especially when he lied to Xuan'er.

He could only temporarily put away his thoughts to continue to appease the whine, and led Chu Qiuli to start looking for a place to stay today.

I don't know if it's because of today's market, Xu Han asked four or five inns one after another, but they were already full. After walking around for most of the circle, the group finally found a rather dilapidated inn, and finally found two wings.

"Two, a total of seventy yuan. After choosing a room, the guy stretched out his hand towards Xu Han and Chu Qiuli with a smile.

"Huh?" Xu Han turned his head to look at Chu Qiuli and motioned for the other party to give money.

"Huh?" Chu Qiuli looked at Xu Han with a confused expression as his eyes widened.

"Give me the money. Xu Han, who secretly thought that the other party did not understand what he meant, said with his forehead.

"Isn't it for you?" Chu Qiuli replied innocently.

"That's only one or two, what about the rest?"

"It's gone. ”

"Gone?" Xu Han looked at Chu Qiuli incredulously, when Chu Qiuli left half a year ago, he gave the other party seven or eight thousand taels of silver.

Chu Qiuli nodded very firmly, and said, "It's gone." ”
