Chapter 844: Shopkeeper

Her words gave people a feeling of being a little inexplicable, but after thinking about it a little, I understood that this is the black talk of the rivers and lakes. If you're wrong, you'll probably not be able to buy any of these grocery stores.

At this time, the old man who opened the door set his eyes on Shangguan Xiaoyao and his party, to be precise, on the four maids.

A look of greed flashed in the depths of his lewd eyes, as if he had seen a peerless treasure, but this greedy look disappeared in a flash, and then he lowered his eyebrows and looked like a bodhisattva.

Mo Qiushui didn't see the greed in the old man's expression, she said with a big grin: "Shopkeeper, come to Qizhang Luyin!"

The old man is the owner of this mutton shop and the person in charge of the Wancheng grocery store.

Hearing Mo Qiushui's words, he said slowly: "Seven hundred taels." ”

"What? Seven hundred taels? Are you mistaken? The usual road guide that only costs ten taels has now multiplied tenfold?"

Mo Qiushui was in a hurry all of a sudden, she also did it here, it only cost ten taels of silver a piece, and now it has actually multiplied tenfold all at once!

Originally, she wanted to buy seven roads directly and give them to Shangguan Xiaoyao and his party, but now that the price has increased tenfold, she wants to take out seven hundred taels, but she is a little distressed.

"That was the price the other day. From now on, all prices will increase!"

The shopkeeper replied without raising his head, and the posture of whether you like to buy or not is really boring to watch.

"Okay, Baohuitong's silver ticket, seven hundred taels!"

Mo Qiushui gritted his teeth and took out seven silver tickets from his sleeve pocket and handed them to the old man in front of him, the appearance of gritting his teeth looked like he was going to eat this old man alive.

"Miss Mo, it's already very good that you can bring us over. How can I trouble you to pay for the matter of the road guide?"

At this time, Shangguan Xiaoyao spoke, and after speaking, he glanced at the store and said, "Sit on the ground and start the price, don't you know what honesty is when doing business." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he raised his head, his wrinkled face was full of disdain, and said: "Integrity? I will take a great risk if I provide you with this guide at this time, and if you are a key criminal to be arrested by the imperial court, just by virtue of the way guide I provide you, I will not be able to cut off ten heads." ”

"That's it, you return the money to her, and mine is for you. ”

Shangguan Xiaoyao didn't bother to say anything more to this shopkeeper, just a silver ticket, for him, the prince of Zhao State, what is seven hundred taels?

But Mo Qiushui was unhappy when she heard this, she glared at Shangguan Xiaoyao and said, "Childe, isn't it different for me to give money here?"

"It's different, I don't have anything else, Childe, so there's money left. ”

Shangguan Yaoyao's response made Mo Qiushui stunned, and then said a little angrily: "Hehe, since the son is so rich, why don't you fund me a little!

Seeing that Mo Qiushui was angry, Shangguan Xiaoyao didn't care, pretended not to understand that she was angry, turned to Ju'er and said, "Reward!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Ju'er take ten silver tickets with a denomination of one hundred taels and hand them to Mo Qiushui.

Seeing this scene, Mo Qiushui's face turned cold all of a sudden, she didn't expect Shangguan Xiaoyao to do such a thing!

Doesn't the word 'reward' mean to send yourself like a beggar?

"Childe, what do you mean by that?"

Mo Qiu's water surface was like frost, and she was about to be angry by Shangguan Yaoyao's words.

"Three hundred taels are for the passage, and the other seven hundred taels are for the road. ”

Shangguan Xiaoyao was very calm, but the calmer he was, the more angry Mo Qiushui became.

Just now, I thought he was a great man, but why did this guy do things like this? Why did he pretend not to understand what he was mocking him about?

"Miss Mo, you can take it. Childe is really not bad for money. And seven hundred taels is really too much, we are already very grateful if you can bring us here, how can we trouble you to break the bank. Ju'er was free for Shangguan, but Mo Qiushui glared at Shangguan Xiaoyao angrily, and didn't listen to Ju'er's words at all.

Ju'er still held a thousand taels of silver tickets in her hand, and her right hand was still in the posture of handing over the money and did not take it back, but Mo Qiushui turned around and left, which was diametrically opposed to the mood he was full of interest just now.

Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper smiled, and while putting away the seven hundred taels of silver tickets given to him by Mo Qiushui, he said: "Hehe, doesn't this boy understand women? This female doll helps you pay, and she is interested in you in her heart, so you refuse her like this, doesn't it hurt the heart of the beauty?"

Shangguan Xiaoyao ignored this, and instead asked, "What about Lu Yin?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said with a smile: "How can it be so fast." Since you want to make a fake and real way, it will definitely take time, you go to the living room with me and wait, and I will make a road guide for you!"

After speaking, he led the way in front, and Shangguan Xiaoyao and a few people followed behind him, but they wanted to see where the living room he was talking about was.

The decoration in the backyard is unique, with rockeries and jungles, and walking in it feels like walking in a maze.

The old man led them to the rockery in the center of the backyard, put his hand on a raised stone on the rockery, and pressed it gently, and there was a 'boom' sound in an instant.

After the sound, the three-person high rockery appeared a portal that could be paralleled by four people, and the portal was illuminated by oil fire, but it was an invisible, stepped passage.

The old man took the lead and walked into the portal, Shangguan Xiaoyao and a few people immediately followed, and when a few people stepped into the staircase passage, the portal of the rockery was closed again.

As soon as a few people stepped into the passage, Ju'er whispered in Shangguan Yao's ear: "Childe, something is wrong with the situation. ”

"Hmm. ”

Shangguan Xiaoyao responded, how could he not know that the situation here was wrong?

When Mo Qiushui was knocking on the door just now, the old man was obviously guarding the backyard, apparently guarding the door.

As the owner of this 'grocery store', he probably won't leave the backyard, what if someone else arrives after he leaves?

But this guy just wants to lead the way ahead, and said that he needs the world to be a road guide, and he wants to take them to the living room to rest, which is very abnormal!

The staircase passage is about twenty meters away, and at the end of the passage, there is a room covering an area of three hundred square meters, and at the other end of the house, there is also a step-by-step staircase, and it seems that there is also a passage over there.

In the middle of the room there is a large bunk, on which are placed layers of quilts, and in addition, there is only a table of eight immortals, and the conditions look extremely simple.

After coming here, the shopkeeper said flatly: "This is the living room, the conditions are a little simple, you can rest here for a while, I will help you make a road guide!"

With that, he walked straight to another passage in the room.

"Shopkeeper, you're just making a guide, you don't need to bring us to a place like this, do you?"

At this moment, one of the black-clothed guards, Lin Moxiao, spoke.

Another black-clothed guard, Bai Murong, walked to the other side of the passage, and happened to stand at the exit of the passage, and said, "I'll go with the shopkeeper to get the guide, I just want to see how this guide is made." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he ran quickly towards the passage on the other side without looking back, his hunched figure was wearing a big robe, and he ran like a humanoid horse monkey, but he was extremely fast, flashing in the shadows, and in just a breath of time, he had already run to the other end of the passage.

As for Bai Murong who was standing at the other end of the passage, the owner of the horse monkey shopkeeper completely ignored him as if he didn't see him, and wanted to slip away from Bai Murong with his speed as fast as a meteor.

It's just that at this time, I saw Bai Murong stretch out his hand and pat the shopkeeper's chest, but the shopkeeper's fast-running figure was like a kite with a broken string, falling out of the rear!

"Shopkeeper, what are you doing here? Why are you running like this? It's easy to fall when you run fast!"

Bai Murong looked at the big horse monkey shopkeeper in front of him with a playful face, the shopkeeper at this time was already lying on the ground coughing up blood, Bai Murong's slap just now seemed to be very gentle, but when this slap really fell on his body, he only felt that his sternum was about to break!

"One...... A first-class master?"

The shopkeeper got up from the ground with difficulty, his eyes were full of horror, looking at Bai Murong in front of him, he didn't expect that this person who was at most twenty years old would be a first-class master in the rivers and lakes!

"Hehe, it doesn't matter if you're a master or not, it's the shopkeeper who is running so fast, what are you trying to do?"

As Bai Murong spoke, he slowly walked towards the shopkeeper, his steps were slow, but with every step he took, the shopkeeper's face became ugly.

The shopkeeper was in a heavy mood at this time, and he never thought that the person who he regarded as his prey would suddenly become a flood beast!

"Who the hell are you?"

He stared at Bai Murong with a solemn expression, thought about it, but understood that he was not the person who was talking here, and finally turned his head to look at Shangguan Xiaoyao's body, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

Looking at the anger and unwillingness on the shopkeeper's face, Shangguan Yao shook his head and said, "It seems that although you are also from the rivers and lakes, you don't pay much attention to the affairs of the rivers and lakes!"

Suddenly hearing Shangguan Xiaoyao say such words, the shopkeeper only felt inexplicable.

He stared at Shangguan Xiaoyao and looked at it carefully, and asked, "Pay attention to the affairs of the rivers and lakes? I have been in this Wancheng for too long, and I have long stopped asking about the affairs of the rivers and lakes!"

Shangguan Xiaoyao continued to shake his head and said: "Since you don't ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, then why do you have to mix with the affairs of the rivers and lakes! Since they have all left the rivers and lakes, why do you still want to do the deeds of killing people and robbing money!"
