Chapter 38: The Taoist Priest
"Welcome to the next time~"
After sending off the last guest, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief, took off his uniform with a relaxed expression, and found a place to sit down leisurely.
It's finally over!
I'm tired of being busy and busy~
It feels so good to get off work.
When the door was closed, the princess stepped out of the curtain.
Unlike before, she wore an extra white sheer gauze on her body.
The already good-looking body adds an extra hazy beauty.
"What, this is useless?" The princess glanced at Su Li, who was sitting paralyzed: "Get up quickly, get ready to go." ”
I'll just rest for a while, what's the waste......
And is it necessary to leave so soon?
I just got off work!
Looking at the warm sunlight outside the window, Su Li was silent for a moment, and said tentatively: "Do you want to rest for a while?" ”。
The princess clasped her hands around her chest and looked at Su Li quietly with an expressionless face.
It was a stalemate for about a minute.
"Okay, okay, let's go, let's go." Su Li sighed wistfully, and picked up the small bag on the counter without love.
What should come will come.
After saying that, he opened the door of the store and walked out with the princess.
……
The pet market mentioned by the princess is located in the eastern part of City C, and several streets in this area are used for pet business.
A few years ago, the smell of body odor and feces was overwhelming due to the various cages placed by pet dealers on the roadside.
So as soon as you get to the intersection, there will be a lingering stench wafting by.
Later, the government reformed and optimized it, renting the surrounding shops to traders at a cheap price, and informing them that they could only put pets in the store for sale, and could not be placed on the side of the street to affect the city's appearance.
So if you come here, you can see a whole street of pet shops.
It can also be regarded as a new interesting neighborhood in City C.
……
"This is it?" Su Li narrowed his eyes and turned his head to look at the nearby shaman-filled and sunny street.
The traffic was busy, and the honking of cars and electric cars mingled and resounded constantly.
The two of them stood under the tree at the corner of the street, and from time to time a breeze blew, causing the branches to rattle and rattle.
"Yes, do you feel it?" The princess looked up at the surroundings with a somewhat solemn expression.
Su Li was suddenly a little confused, and hurriedly looked around: "What do you feel?" ”
Isn't that all around here?
Where is there something unusual?
"It looks like someone is watching us." After a pause, the princess added, "To be precise, someone is watching this street." ”
Staring at the streets?
Looking at the normal scene nearby, Su Li suddenly remembered what he had encountered in the abandoned warehouse before.
There was no one around, but there were people who knew what they were doing......
"How do you feel it? With your Void powers? Su Li suddenly felt a little sweat oozing from his forehead.
I don't know if it's because I'm nervous or because it's too hot.
"Yes, but leave that alone for now, let's go in first." The princess walked into the first pet shop on the far left.
Su Li followed.
As soon as the two of them walked into the store, they heard someone arguing with the owner.
"What kind of joke are you making with me, what do you mean it's all sold out?" The man who spoke out was blushing, with a thick neck and a small bag at his waist.
A woman with a slightly thick base makeup leaned next to the man, as if to persuade her: "Oh, Brother Wang, don't be angry, it's okay, I won't buy it." ”
Having said that, there was not a hint of worry on the woman's face.
"If it's sold out, it's sold out, can this gentleman please calm down and don't make noise in public." The shopkeeper frowned and looked at the crowd gathered over, and said helplessly.
"Heh, I think you just don't want to sell it to me, what nonsense is sold out!" The man said as he pointed to the cage nearby.
It is well packed with all kinds of pets.
"If it's really sold out, will you take it? Still left it all the time? I think you just don't want to do my business! After the man finished speaking, he angrily pulled the hand of the woman next to him: "Let's go, go to other stores, I don't believe that so many stores can still be sold out." ”
Curiously glancing at the man who walked out, Su Li came to the shopkeeper: "Boss, what's wrong?" ”
The shopkeeper said helplessly: "Who knows, this morning a Taoist priest came over with a group of people, paid directly on the spot, and bought all the pets in my store." ”
"I explained to the man just now that I sold it, but he didn't believe it, because he didn't think I looked down on him and didn't want to sell it to him."
The shopkeeper said as he brought a little fire.
"Really, tell me, do I have to lie to him, how can there be any reason not to do business!"
"I see, people like him suddenly became rich, and he still has low self-esteem in his bones, and he always feels that others look down on him!"
Su Li thoughtfully glanced at the pets around him that had not been taken away, and then asked, "Did the Taoist priest only buy the pets in your store?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head: "I guess it's more than that, looking at his posture, he should have bought out all the shops around here." ”
Ooh~
It's all bought out,
What a big deal!
Su Li frowned and pondered.
A Taoist priest came to the pet market with a group of people, and then paid for all the pets on the spot?
Here's what the figure is.
How strange it looks!
Thinking about it, Su Li looked up at the princess: "Go around and have a look?" ”
The princess nodded.
Then the two walked around the nearby streets.
Not surprisingly, all the shopkeepers said that their pets had been bought out by a Taoist priest in the morning.
Su Li took the princess to the corner of the street, looked at the man who started talking not far away, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly asked the princess, "Is this what you feel is wrong?" ”
"It's not." The princess shook her head: "What I feel is wrong, it should be the mysterious force that watches over this street." ”
"It's like floating over this street, exuding a feeling that makes me uncomfortable."
"Tsk, it's so abstract, I can't feel it anyway." Su Li shrugged his shoulders when he heard this, and looked at the sky with his hands behind his back: "I'm quite curious about that Taoist priest, I really don't know what kind of person he is, and he is so idle that he bought all his pets." ”
Su Li was saying when he suddenly felt a strange breath.
When I looked up, I saw a man in a loose robe walking over.
The visitor was dressed in a loose pale blue robe, and his black hair was tied with a hairpin.
A few strands of black hair that were not tied up were scattered very casually on the side of his face, and his eyes were slightly squinted, as if he hadn't woken up.
"Since you're curious about this layman, why don't we make a deal?"
Looking at the Taoist priest who suddenly appeared, Su Li was obviously stunned, and just wanted to open his mouth to answer.
I saw that the Taoist priest in front of him came over, staring at Su Li with a pair of listless dead fish eyes: "This deal is that we answer each other's question." ”
"Xiaodao, let me tell you why I bought these pets."
"And you need to tell me," the Taoist priest's tone suddenly became serious.
"How did you learn the Golden Light Spell!"
