Chapter 258: Door-to-door Business (Part 3)

Hurriedly bidding farewell to the Chu army that was about to run away, Lin Cheng hurriedly fled.

What just surprised him was that before he could take two steps, he saw Xu Manman leaning against the wall and waiting. She touched the ground slightly with her little feet, and her bumpy fiery figure looked so moving in the afterglow of the sunset revealed by the gap in the window lattice.

Lin Cheng couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.

But soon, he suppressed this feeling and secretly scolded himself for being a scumbag.

"Uncle Beard is a notoriously gossip gossip, so don't take his words seriously. ”

He approached Xu Manman, but found that the latter looked at him with a hint of shyness in his eyes, his heart moved, and he asked with some embarrassment: "Did you hear what I said to Senior Chu just now?"

It was so close to Chu Jun's room, and Xu Manman was an elixir master with outstanding spiritual power, how could he not hear the words inside?

Xu Manman didn't deny it, but just changed the topic directly: "By the way, tonight happens to be the annual Lantern Festival." The imperial capital will be very lively at this time, you have been in the imperial capital for so long, it seems that you haven't played much, right? Why don't I take you out at night. ”

"This ......"

Lin Cheng was stunned, he still felt that cultivation was more meaningful than watching the lights.

"You're not interested in it at all. ”

Seeing Lin Yan's hesitation, Xu Manman glanced at him angrily, with infinite charm: "I heard that your friend came to Babel Tower to look for you, even if you don't want to play, you should take your friend out to have a look, right?"

"Alright then!"

Lin Yan nodded.

Not to mention anything else, Xiaomeng came all the way to the imperial capital to look for him, and he was a little unhappy in his heart. He also knew that Xiaomeng, the girl, had always wanted to follow him, and he had this opportunity to make up for it, so it was not bad for him to take Xiaomeng outside to play.

It's getting dark.

The imperial capital is brightly lit, the traffic is busy, and it is not lively.

At the annual Lantern Festival, the streets are filled with all kinds of lanterns, which look so gorgeous. Lin Cheng took Xiaomeng and Xu Manman out to play together, but as for Tian Zhi and Tong Yan, they were not interested in this kind of thing, so they stayed in the Tower of Babel to cultivate.

And Bai Hanqing hadn't come out since he entered the gravity room yesterday, so Lin Cheng naturally wouldn't bother his cultivation.

"Uncle, that lamp is so beautiful!"

Xiaomeng, who had never seen such a lively scene, seemed to be in high spirits, and she was bouncing along the way, but her little hand was holding the corner of Lin Cheng's clothes from time to time.

Seeing such a happy little dream, Lin Cheng always had a faint smile on his face.

For Xiaomeng, he has always treated his sister like a sister, and if the former is happy, he will naturally be happy.

He also knew very well in his heart that Tian Zhi's purpose in coming to the imperial capital this time was nothing more than to inform him of the news of Qin Yutong's departure from Xuanyue Sect, as for why Xiaomeng came, he didn't have to think about it to know that she had asked for it herself.

"Xiaomeng, have you ever seen the biggest dragon bridge lantern in the imperial capital? Let me tell you, it's beautiful!"

"Really? Sister Manman......

What is quite surprising is that Xu Manman and Xiaomeng are quite compatible, and she does not dislike Xiaomeng's ugly appearance. Looking at her sincere and unpretentious eyes, it is obvious that she really treats Xiaomeng as a friend.

Perhaps because of the special environment in which she grew up, Xu Manman did not have any friends, and the people around her avoided and rejected her intentionally or unintentionally. Now that I have met a simple little dream, I can be regarded as having found a true friend.

In short, the two girls, one big and one young, seem to be quite happy.

Lin Cheng was very pleased.

"Lin Cheng, I'll take Xiaomeng to see the Dragon Bridge Lantern, will you go?"

"No, I'll just hang out. ”

Lin Cheng chuckled and refused.

He doesn't like places that are too lively, and he is not interested in the crowded Longqiao lanterns, so it is better to stroll around here, so as not to disturb the interest of these two girls.

Alone, he shuttled through the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, with vendors selling on the street from time to time, and some vendors posing all kinds of strange small objects.

Lin Cheng walked around these stalls with great interest, and heard that the stalls on this street were mixed with dragons and snakes, and occasionally some special treasures would appear. Although it was just hearsay, Lin Cheng still had the attitude of giving it a try, and it was time to pass the time.

"Meow!"

Just as Lin Yuan was wandering, Xiaoice in his arms suddenly poked his head out. It jumped down with a flutter, sniffing all the way to a stall, and it found a tattered silk cloth, and actually bit it down.

"Eh, where did the cat come from, how did you come here to make trouble!"

The vendor owner exclaimed.

"I'm sorry, this is my cat, I'm causing you trouble, boss. ”

Lin Yuan hurriedly came over to apologize, and directly pinched the soft flesh on the back of Xiaoice's neck and picked it up. But even after being taught, Demon Tiger Xiaoice still had no intention of loosening the silk cloth in his mouth.

"Huh?"

Lin Cheng's heart moved, and he asked directly: "Boss, how can this piece of silk cloth be sold?"

"Look at the son's extraordinary bearing, the original price is fifteen taels of silver! Now the price is ten taels of silver!"

The stall owner's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his palms together.

"Okay!"

Lin Cheng happily gave the money and took away the tattered silk cloth. Seeing this, the stall owner could be said to have smiled, and the people nearby shook their heads secretly.

It's another person who is stupid and has a lot of money.

After walking to a place where no one was, Lin Yuan took out the silk cloth, and the demon tiger Xiaoice had not let go of his mouth.

"Tell me, what is the name of this silk cloth?"

Lin Yuan glanced at Xiaoice and asked.

This lazy tiger only knows how to sleep lazily in his arms on weekdays, and even if he is called out, he is too lazy to move. actually took the initiative to run out today, which means that this tattered silk cloth is definitely not simple.

The stall owner doesn't know the goods, but it doesn't mean that the lazy tiger doesn't know the goods.

After all, Xiaoice has a strange bead in his body, which always seems to sense some strange things, so as to manipulate Xiaoice to obtain those things.

"Woo......"

Xiaoice blinked innocently, it didn't know anything at all. It just suddenly felt a special sensation that urged it to look for the silk cloth, but when it found it, it didn't know what to do.

Immediately, its eyes rolled, and the piece of silk cloth was swallowed directly into its stomach.

Bang.

Lin Cheng knocked on its head, and said angrily: "Dare to eat anything!"

"Meow?"

Xiaoice stretched lazily, and went directly into Lin Yuan's arms and continued to sleep.

What else could Lin Cheng say about such a stupid tiger? Expecting this stupid tiger to explain to him was impossible. He also had some guesses in his heart, the reason why Xiaoice swallowed the silk cloth was probably also the strange bead secretly acting.

But Lin Cheng had no way to deal with that weird bead, so he could only let it go. Fortunately, that bead did not pose any threat to Xiaoice at present, but brought unimaginable benefits to Xiaoice.

Didn't you see that this stupid tiger was sleeping every day, but the speed of this cultivation growth didn't fall at all?

How long has it been, and Lin Yuan can even faintly feel that Xiaoice is about to break through the powerful aura of the five-rank demon beast! But it has only been less than a month since this lazy tiger broke through the four-rank demon beast.

Such a terrifying promotion speed is simply impossible in the eyes of ordinary people! You must know that the speed of demon beasts' promotion is many times slower than that of human martial artists, and their promotions are calculated in years, decades, or even hundreds of years.

However, Xiaoice's promotion speed would actually go against the sky to such an extent, even if it was talented, it was absolutely impossible to be so exaggerated. The only thing that can explain it is the weird bead in its body!

"I don't know how far you can grow......"

Lin Yuan stroked the soft fur on Xiaoice's body twice and said softly.

Lin Cheng, who continued to start wandering, suddenly ran into a sneaky guy at this time. The other party had a seemingly kind smile on his face, and when he saw Lin Yan's eyes, it was like seeing the God of Wealth.

"Yo, isn't this Lin Gongzi?"

The next person is extremely thin, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and he is even more sneaky when he walks, and he doesn't look like a good person at first glance.

But Lin Yan recognized him at a glance, this person was Xu Chuan, who helped him and Tong Yan sign up for the Panlong Society, although this person's cultivation was not weak, but he didn't seem to have the heart to compete with others at all.

What impressed Lin Cheng was that Xu Chuan seemed to be very interested in money and spirit stones like him.

And this guy's intelligence network doesn't seem to be simple at all, in Xu Chuan's words, as long as you have enough silver taels or spirit stones, you can buy any information you want to know from him.

"Brother Xu, don't come unharmed. ”

Lin Yan smiled lightly.

"Thanks to your care, business has been good recently. ”

Xu Chuan smiled, and at some point a heavy money bag appeared in his hand, full of philistine atmosphere: "Lin Gongzi has been out of the limelight recently, I wonder if you are interested in taking care of my little brother's business?"

"Since Brother Xu will come to me specifically, then there must be business to do with me, right?"

Lin Cheng's eyes flashed slightly, and he said with a smile: "Mingren doesn't say dark words, if you want to sell me, just say it." ”

Don't look at Xu Chuan, this person only has a sixth- or seventh-order cultivation that goes against his fate, but everything he does seems to be related to the purpose of doing business. Since he would appear in front of Lin Yuan, it must not be accidental.

This guy came to find Lin Cheng on purpose.

"Lin Gongzi is really a smart person, I like to deal with people who are both smart and rich!"

Xu Chuan grinned and exclaimed: "Don't hide it from Lin Gongzi, junior brother, there is indeed some information that Lin Gongzi needs urgently to sell!

"Price is not an issue. ”

Lin Cheng chuckled, and without saying a word, he threw out a heavy sack.

Xu Chuan hurriedly took it, but was surprised to find that the weight was really not light. When he opened the sack, his eyes suddenly widened, and there were actually all medium-grade spirit stones shining with spiritual light!

He roughly counted them, and there were hundreds of them!

"Heroic!"

Xu Chuan didn't say anything, and directly gave Lin Cheng a thumbs up.

Doing business with rich people is refreshing, and if you don't even see the goods, you just throw a bunch of money first. Although this kind of behavior hurts people's self-esteem very much, Xu Chuan said that self-esteem is a fart, please feel free to hurt him!
