"Take a look, take a look. Fresh black carp, delicious and nourishing, sold cheap~"

"How do you sell this fish?"

"One hundred wen for one pound of death, one hundred and fifty wen for one pound of life."

"What? So expensive! Why don't you go and grab the money? ”

The strong man saw that someone was coming to ask for the price, so he explained diligently.

"This carp is a pure wild fish I caught from the woods, look at the scales, this head, but it is many miles bigger than an ordinary carp!"

The people who came up to ask the price looked forward and saw that the carp in the pot were all fresh and fat, and the scales were round and large, which really belonged to the best among carp.

"Huh? This fish ......"

I saw a single carp next to it, and there was a fish enjoying a pot alone. The whole body is ink-colored, the fish belly is snow-white, it is really aura, and the jade snow is cute.

"This fish, ten taels of silver."

"What? Ten taels of silver? ”

A carp for ten taels of silver? This man is crazy about money!

Listening to the silent shouts of the person who came forward to ask the price, the originally noisy vegetable market suddenly fell silent.

A carp actually bid ten taels, and the surrounding crowd couldn't help but be aroused by the desire to find out.

"Ten taels are cheap, this fish is not an ordinary fish, it is the king of carp!"

The strong man saw that there were more and more onlookers on the stall, and his heart was a little empty.

Although the scales of this carp are good-looking and the aura is compelling, the king of carp is all nonsense made by strong men and their family. It's just to inflate the value of the fish, so as to attract the attention of others and ask for a good price. But ten taels of silver, the strong man privately thought that the price was set a little too high.

Ten taels of silver, that's enough for him to work for ten years.

"What a fish king, I think you're bragging."

The people around watched the fishmonger speak completely without a score, and their mouths also ridiculed.

The king of carp? That's almost fine, where is it his turn to sell a mortal here.

Li Muyu, who was hiding in a wooden basin and blowing bubbles, felt a little sad when he heard that the condemnation around him was intensifying.

This trick is a marketing strategy that the strong man's family racked their brains to come up with, although it is a bit nonsense, but I have to say that this initial effect has been achieved.

"Let me see the king carp."

Hearing this, the strong man looked at the owner of the voice.

It's Zhao Yuanwai.

Zhao Yuanwai is one of the few landowners in the town, with an only child in his family, who is preparing to take this year's children's exam. Everyone knows that the son of the Zhao family has taken the exam twice in a row, but he has repeatedly failed the exam, which makes Zhao Yuanwai, who wants his son Jackie Chan, quite disappointed.

"Look at this carp, can you afford to be the king of carp."

Zhao Yuanwai looked at this aura of the carp, and he already had some thoughts in his heart.

Carp, a symbol of ordinary. But the way of heaven is fair, and the ordinary carp is one of the few beings among all living beings who can turn into a dragon.

The fish leaps over the dragon gate and becomes a dragon.

If his son eats the meat of this "carp king", I don't know if he can ......

"Isn't the golden scale a thing in the pool, a dragon that changes when it encounters wind and clouds. You say that he is the king of carp, so I ask you, will the one who eats his meat also become the 'king of men'? ”

The king of men?

The strong man was startled when he heard Zhao Yuanwai's unashamed words. Although he is just a small people, he never dares to say anything like 'the king of people' that wants to lose his head.

If you want to be a king if you eat a fish, why don't you go to heaven?

Although the strong man slandered in his heart, he didn't dare to show anything on his face. As long as he really sells this fish, what does he do if he eats fish? Still want to be king? It depends on whether you have this life and enjoy this blessing.

Master Zhao said with a smile, although this fish is good, it is up to people to succeed and to plan things. Now that your son has gained fame, if he can make up for it with this fish, it will be wonderful. Maybe, this time because of this fish, a good fortune? ”

"Haha, you're right! Ten taels of silver is not expensive, and someone Zhao will buy this good lottery! ”

In just a few words, he was once again decided to be eaten, and Li Muyu became angry.

What if it's only an ornamental fish? Why don't you play cards according to common sense?

"Fishmonger, you fish jumped out of the basin!"

Sure enough, an ink-colored carp jumped up with a pop, made a splash, and jumped out of the basin.

"If it is really the king of fish, he is so energetic, Wu'er eats its meat, and he will definitely be able to win the first place in the imperial examination!"

The strong man pressed the carp on the ground, although the carp fluttered fiercely, the strength could not fight the adult after all.

The strong man firmly held the fish on the board, and felt the strength of the fish in his hand, and he was also secretly surprised.

"Master Zhao, this beast is disobedient, or I'll knock you out first, and you can take it back."

"I'll bother you."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be ......"

As he spoke, the strong man had already picked up a bright kitchen knife with his right hand, the back of the knife was down, and he held it high above his head.

The dazzling sunlight scorched Li Muyu's eyes, and the gears of time seemed to be rusty, as if everyone had been enchanted, frame by frame, like the slow motion of a movie. Life and death are instantaneous, but they are extraordinarily long.

"Wait—"

Like the sound of Buddha filling the ears, it is like the morning bell ringing. The loud sound shook people's eardrums as if they had exploded.

The strong man trembled, and the kitchen knife that should have fallen was shocked to the ground.

"Ahh

The kitchen knife fell to the ground, almost slashing the strong man's foot. If it weren't for his quick reaction, I'm afraid he wouldn't have escaped today's bloody disaster.

escaped a disaster, and the strong man was very angry in his heart. When I looked up to find the culprit, I didn't think that it was an old monk with a gray beard in a robe.

"Old monk, your voice is a little louder, it makes my ears hurt, and the kitchen knife is not stable, and it almost hurt myself."

Although the strong man was indignant, his words did not dare to be too intense. As soon as this old monk opened his mouth, he could shock himself to the ground, and he was afraid that he was a kung fu person.

"Amitabha, good, good. Donor, this fish boss wants it. ”

I'm actually here to buy fish! Do monks eat fish too?

"Master, this fish is Zhao Mou's first fancy to it, not to mention that it comes first and then comes, that is, you, a monk, buy fish and go back, is it possible that you want to open a meat and break the vows?"

"Amitabha, donor, a poor monk is a monk, and he will never do that thing of breaking the vows and opening meat. It's just that all things have the virtue of a good life, why don't the donor cut his love and give this carp to me, how about it? ”

Zhao Yuanwai looked at the old monk who suddenly appeared, and felt that it was really unreasonable. What "everything has the virtue of a good life", why don't you see him saving other livestock, but fighting with him for this carp he likes first. Could it be that this fish is still raised by his Buddhism?

"What if I'm biased?"

"Then be exonerated."

After speaking, the old monk took out a golden ingot from his arms and sent it to the strong man.

"There is a saying that the one with the highest price will get it, I don't know if my money is enough to pay the price of this fish?"

"Enough... Enough... It's simply... Enough is enough! ”

The strong man who sold fish, seeing that the old monk was a piece of gold, his heart was in a trance, and his body was a little trembling with excitement on a sunny day.

"Humph!"

Zhao Yuanwai, who originally wanted to follow the bidding, was shocked and angry when he saw the monk take out such a large ingot.

Is he richer than Lao Tzu? This bald donkey is really bold!

The surrounding crowd who were still eating melons with peace of mind were also shocked by this scene. In addition, my heart gradually became uncomfortable. This fish seller's life is really good, a big ingot, why am I not so good?

"Huh? Look! This fish is crying! Still blinking! ”

What?

Everyone who had been blinded by jealousy invariably focused their eyes on the carp on the board.

The inky scales were crystal clear, and the body of the fish was restrained by the big man, and the tail was still flapping. With teary eyes, a line of clear tears continued to flow out of the fish's eyes, and the carp, which should not be able to close its eyes, was at this time, contrary to common sense, constantly blinking at everyone.

"I'm dripping! This fish is fine! ”

The strong man was startled, and the whole person jumped out directly.

"Amitabha, good, good. All things have spirits, and carp have tears. Such a spiritual creature ended up like this. It's really sad! Alas! Anyway, today, when you meet the old man, it is fate, and today's catastrophe, the old man will come to cross your journey! ”

Good, good.
