Chapter Twenty-Six: When the Sunset Sets
The boy blinked, and froze in place for a moment.
If you ask how much a bun is, how much a pound of wine is, how much is a chicken leg, Qian is very clear, but he really doesn't know how to sell cucumbers.
Looking at the woman, Yu Guang looked at the little girl who was licking the rock sugar gourd next to her and her eyes widened, several thoughts flashed in Qianyi's heart, and she turned around and left, saying that she didn't know what it was, indicating that there were facts, but when a few streets away, when a person asked another vegetable vendor about the price of cucumbers, Qianyi's ears moved slightly, and he said calmly: "Six cents a catty." ”
......
The woman bought six cucumbers, gave ten cents, and slowly disappeared into the crowd with the little girl.
Qian Yi looked down at the ten cents in his hand, his eyes lit up slightly, and his heart had quickly calculated - six cucumbers for ten cents, sixty cucumbers for one hundred cents, six hundred and cucumbers for one tael of silver, and one thousand taels for tuition......
Qian Yi simply gave up this idea, if he wanted to earn tuition by selling vegetables, unless the entire vegetable market was his, or he sold so many vegetables in the vegetable market.
Time walks slowly and hurries.
When Qian also found that there was only a pile of vegetable leaves left on the cart, it was the end of the Shen period.
After a bright day, I was finally gentle and delicate by the faint wind.
Qianyi looked at the wooden pole leaning on the side, and sighed slightly, he was originally a stall to practice medicine, but he didn't expect to sell vegetables for most of the day, and for a period of time, he was regarded as a strongman and a fortune teller. What left him speechless was that at noon, a gambler who had lost so much that he didn't have any pants left, came over with his crotch, pointed to the tablecloth on the wooden pole and said, "Do you buy this cloth?"
“......”
However, the young man did not feel depressed, after all, after so many years in Baiding Mountain and Dragon City Valley, most of the things he encountered were not smooth at first. Moreover, I am accustomed to the days of practicing hunting and bloody rain, and it is also good to watch people come and go here for a day, and to watch the thoughts of the people with oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea for a day.
Of course, it's just a matter of tasting the freshness on this kind of day, if he sells vegetables like this every day, he still has to go back to Longcheng Valley to kill demons and slay demons.
The sunset sank deeper.
Qianyi stands at the crossroads, there are very few people on the street, and some restaurants and inns have even hung up lanterns, just waiting for the sunset to be covered by the clouds, that is, "the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night".
The teenager was waiting for someone.
He wasn't sure if the girl would come, but he wasn't sure if the girl would, so he waited.
In the morning, because of the matter of selling vegetables and brothers, there were many people involved, and the people may only understand that Zhu Baqian was provoked by the young Ah He first, so he brought people to seek revenge, but when he saw Ah He's sister so beautiful, he was moved by lust and wanted to forcibly occupy it, but then he was stopped by a young man in a blue shirt.
As for the snow-shirted woman in the back who burned the sky with blue flames, most of the people didn't know.
Qian Yi didn't know, but he saw nine tall buildings and nine green lights more than ten miles away, and he also saw the snowshirt woman falling on the top of one of the tall buildings.
In this way, the identity of the nine lamps is about to come out - the bearer of the black road of Kyoto.
However, this does not mean that the girl in the cloth skirt has the possibility of coming back, after all, she finally escaped for her life, and most people will choose to stay away.
It's just that Qianyi wants the snowshirt woman to be so angry and cultivated, and her status in the nine lights will naturally not be low, and the vegetable seller sister and brother, as the key person who makes the snowshirt woman angry, will most likely be concerned by the people of the nine lights afterwards.
So you may not be able to go, or you may not want to go.
Indeed, when the lights were on and the tracks were temporarily hidden, a girl in a cloth skirt appeared at the end of the street.
The forehead was covered with pink sweat, and a few strands of slightly messy green silk were scattered in the wind, and they were soaked in gold and jade inlaid by the setting sun.
It's still the pair of gray and white cloth shoes, it's still the simple clothes, but the girl comes to the sunset, but inexplicably walks out of a kind of cheerfulness towards the rising sun, and the soft face is a little less heavy, a little more joy-
Just as Qianyi speculated, when the girl and her younger brother returned home, they packed up their things and took their mother with limited mobility, and they didn't walk long before they were stopped by several black-clothed people with the statue of Fuhu on their chests.
The young Ah He recognized the latter's identity - the Tiger Killer Gang.
Kyoto's ** is highly hierarchical, and self-formed gangs are not recognized at all if they do not have territory. In this densely populated Kyoto, the gangsters who occupy one street can be regarded as entering the stream, but they are only the last first-rate, accounting for a few streets is slightly better, the third-rate, and those who occupy a city area are considered second-rate, and there is only one first-class ** force in Yong'an City - nine lights.
The difference in rank can also be roughly seen in its name.
Just like Zhu Baqian and Ah He's gang, the Hippo Gang and the Iron Hoof Gang, you can know that they belong to the grass eaters when you hear the name, and the meat eaters in the Tiger Killing Gang, as for the nine lights, they are beyond the top and are no longer confined to animals.
The Tiger Killing Gang is the third-rate gang that governs Ah He's Iron Hoof Gang, and it has always been the master who only shows up when collecting money, and this time, most of it was secretly instructed by someone.
Ah He thought well, but the person who instructed him did not have malicious intent. Before Ah He pulled out the waist knife, several black-clothed people had bowed deeply, they were indeed here to stop Ah He's family from leaving, but they were very polite, polite as if the innkeeper was facing a dignitary.
So, the three of them saluted on their backs, and were inexplicably invited to the main hall by several members of the Tiger Killing Gang, and after a short time, they were invited to nine lamps by the second-rate gang above the Tiger Killing Gang.
When a middle-aged man wearing a gold-inlaid python robe passed by the middle hall, he glanced at the three of them by the way, two-thirds of his eyes fell on the girl, and one-third of his eyes fell on the young man Ah He, and then said one word: "Good." ”
Since then, the fate of the Ah He family has changed completely.
However, it is not upside down, because there are not many people who say "good" every year in this middle-aged man, but there are also a lot of them, and it is impossible for his subordinates to provide everyone with fine clothes and food, so as usual, the rest of the conditions remain the same, and let the young Ah He enter the Tiger Killing Gang.
In this way, for the Ah He family, it is definitely not possible to go, a girl who has experienced the ups and downs of life for a day, some trance helped her mother back to the house, and after sitting for a long time, she suddenly jumped up with a scream, and then remembered the car that she had forgotten in the morning.
Hurried over, she didn't expect much food left in the cart, as long as the cart was still there, she could still sell vegetables tomorrow.
However, when the girl came to the crossroads, she saw a young man standing alone in the street, quiet and composed, like an aspen standing tall in the sunset.
