Chapter 66: Tie Xiong
A thought slowly became clear in Zhang Le's mind, he didn't care about eating, so he immediately stood up to settle the bill, and gave the guy a piece of silver. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing that the meal had just been served, Zhang Le was leaving, and the guy was strange, and he was happy to pee at this moment, and thanked him repeatedly.
Zhang Le hurried downstairs.
When he came to the opposite street, Zhang Le squeezed into the crowd and stood in front, only to see the guy crossed his waist, with a look of extreme contempt on his face, pointing at the burly guard and saying: "Your mother is seriously ill, what does it matter to me? This Huiyang grass is one hundred taels of silver, and one tael less is not sold." ”
The burly guard stood silently, his rocky face twitching slightly, allowing the drugstore guy to insult him.
When the guy saw that the burly guard didn't say a word, he became even more energetic: "Look at your dress, it should be the guard in the palace, right? What about the guard in the palace? If you have money, I will sell you this Huiyang grass, if you don't have money, you are not even as good as a dog!"
When Zhang Le heard this, he took a step forward and slapped the pharmacy guy in the face with a "snap".
Zhang Le didn't use his internal strength for this slap, but the guy still couldn't bear it, and he stumbled and fell into a puddle next to him, and his whole body was covered with sewage and mud, and he was embarrassed.
I only heard the crowd of onlookers, someone softly applauded: "Good fight!"
It seems that everyone can't stand it anymore.
The guy got up in embarrassment, angry: "Who dares to beat Lao Tzu after eating the gall of a leopard?"
"Slap" was loud again.
Zhang Le frowned, and slapped him again.
This slap almost knocked the guy unconscious, dizzy, just came back to his senses, and immediately saw a young man in a green shirt holding a huge gold ingot, facing him coldly.
"I bought Huiyang grass, how many plants do you have in the store, and you can bring as many plants as you want. Zhang Le said coldly.
Looking at the golden ingots in Zhang Le's hand, the man's eyes were straight, and he immediately forgot about being slapped twice by Zhang Le, and said busily: "Yes, yes, there are still three plants in the store, I'll go get them." ”
The guy ran into the store.
Soon, the four brocade boxes stacked together were brought out by the guy.
Zhang Le took it casually and handed it to the burly guard: "Brother, let's see if the medicinal materials are right?"
When Zhang Le made a move, the burly guard was already stunned, and it was even more unexpected at this time, but he still silently took it, opened it one by one, and nodded.
Zhang Le looked at the guy who nodded and said coldly: "There are fifty taels of this ingot, and it is five hundred taels when it is exchanged for silver, you still need to find me one hundred taels, and I don't want the remaining one hundred taels, you just need to kneel down and kowtow three times to this old man, admit your mistake, and one hundred taels will be given to you." ”
"This ......," the guy looked at the crowd.
"Knock, knock. The onlookers couldn't stand it for a long time and coaxed.
The guy was embarrassed for a while, but the next moment his eyes shifted to the gold ingots in Zhang Le's hand, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times to the burly guard: "The villain is wrong, the villain has a pair of dog eyes, the guard, you have a lot, don't worry about me." ”
Zhang Le smiled slightly and threw the gold ingots on the ground.
The burly guard's eyes were full of gratitude, and he said sincerely, "Thank you." ”
Zhang Le smiled: "It's just a gesture, if you have time, brother, it's better to find a place, let's have a good chat." ”
The burly guard's face showed embarrassment.
Zhang Le immediately suddenly smiled and said: "Brother still has to take the medicinal materials home to treat my aunt, so if my brother doesn't object, I'll go with my brother." ”
The burly guard nodded gratefully.
More than half an hour later, Zhang Le followed the burly guards to a remote alley.
The alleys are very narrow, full of debris, and the environment is dirty.
The burly guard came to the door of a low house and knocked softly.
There was a cough in the room, and the voice of a weak old woman sounded: "Is it Tiexiong?"
Tie Xiong pushed the door in: "Mother, I'm back." ”
The room was dimly lit and poorly furnished, and there was a wooden bed in the back, on which lay an old woman, covered with a thick quilt, who was breathing lightly and seemed to be very sick.
Putting the four brocade boxes on a simple table, Tie Xiong said apologetically to Zhang Le: "Brother, you can sit casually, I will come and talk to you after I boil the medicine for my mother." ”
Zhang Lezheng was shocked in his heart, he never thought that a cultivator of the eighth transformation of the mortal realm would actually live in such a place, and nodded and smiled when he heard this: "Brother, please." ”
Tetsuo took out a Huiyang grass and walked to the corner of the house.
After a while, the house was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance.
After a while, Tie Xiong walked to the bed with a bowl of hot medicinal soup, sat down on the edge of the bed, gently helped his mother up, and first blew the medicinal soup in the small spoon to cool it down before carefully feeding the old woman.
The old woman seemed to be very ill, and after drinking the potion she lay down on her bed, and in a short time she fell into a deep sleep.
Tetsuo put the medicine bowl back in the corner and sat down at the table.
Zhang Le frowned and said: "My brother's cultivation is not low, and he is the guard of the palace, so it stands to reason that he should not ......."
He didn't say any more, but looked around.
There wasn't even anything decent in the house.
Tie Xiong sighed: "My family was originally very wealthy, living in a triple mansion in the west of the city, but a few years ago, my mother suddenly became seriously ill, and she needed to take a Huiyang grass every few days to alleviate it, but Huiyang grass is very valuable, and the family road is gradually declining, and in the end, even the yard can only be sold, so I live here." ”
Zhang Le understood a little.
Those who can embark on the path of cultivators are generally well-off, after all, in cultivation, they need a lot of medicinal materials to assist, otherwise, the entry will be very slow, and Tie Xiong is still young, he has already reached the eighth change, and he should not be so down.
However, Zhang Le was still a little puzzled: "As a palace guard, the salary should not be low, and besides, this place is not far from the barren mountain, you can go to the barren mountain to find medicinal materials, or hunt some demon beasts to raise silver taels......"
Tie Xiong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Although the salary of the palace guards is not low, they can't buy a few Huiyang grasses, and the medicinal herbs and demon beasts in the periphery of the barren mountains have been picked and hunted by us cultivators many years ago. ”
Zhang Le couldn't help but be stunned.
"Don't talk about that. Tie Xiong suddenly said, "Brother is helping me like this today, is it useful for me?" ”
Zhang Le was stunned.
Tie Xiong seemed to be silent, but his mind was really not simple, and he guessed Zhang Le's mind at once.
Zhang Le's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and said slowly: "Since my brother guessed it, I will also say it directly." I hope my brother can help me introduce the little prince. ”
