Chapter 35: The Little White Dragon Who Stayed Up All Night (Second Update)
The East has always been revered, so many famous and powerful merchants will generally gather in the east side of the market to set up shop, while the west side is mostly a world of itinerant hawkers, simply support a small shed, or casually put the goods on the ground, you can shout loudly to do business.
The ethereal fairy market is naturally not vulgar, and the market is also divided into two cities, the east and the west, and of course the stalls have to go to the west market.
Hu Hou spread a piece of animal skin on the ground, and then put more than 20 Taichu rice and two hydrangea leaves on it, waiting for Chen Qi, who ran to find the big customer, and also looked forward to other customers passing by to inquire about the price.
I think when I first arrived in the south, I also set up a stall, so now I have developed a habit of never putting all the goods together, only a few samples outside, and then replenishing the goods from the back when there are guests in need. The advantage of this is that when the chengguan comes, they can quickly collect the stalls and run away, if they really can't run away and be surrounded, they will only lose a small part of the goods; in addition, a small number of goods can be placed outside, and they can also avoid picky customers picking and choosing and damaging the goods.
After the goods were arranged, the three of them squatted on the ground with their eyes on the passers-by, watching their every move, including every look, to see if anyone was interested in the goods in front of them.
In the ethereal fairy city, restaurants, teahouses, restaurants, green buildings, pharmacies, and clothing shops, everything is complete, no different from ordinary secular cities, of course, Hu Hou has been to the big city except Xiangshui City, that is, Miaozhuang country, and the two places are just passing by in a hurry, but it does not prevent them from comparing with each other.
I remember that when I watched mythological films from abroad and Hong Kong in the last world, the pictures depicting the fairy world were always very ethereal, which can also be said to be very empty, and it can be said that it is very poor. A few lonely stone pillars set up the fairy palace, there is not even a roof on it, as if it has just been baptized by war, or after tens of thousands of years of history washed away, left behind the remains of the building, and the immortals are generally sitting on the stones in the wild to talk about the major events of heaven and earth, even if the conditions are good, the gods are just one more empty cave, of course, every place is inseparable from the white clouds like mist, of course, those who know are clear white clouds, and those who do not know must think that the immortals live around the kitchen every day, and are surrounded by steam all the time.
At that time, I always felt that these pictures were too unreal, and I often thought that if it was not to save money on the set, I would have been too lazy to go outside the house to shoot the scene.
But after becoming an immortal, you still have to be a wild man in the wilderness, living a life of sleeping in the sun and rain, either crazy or a little perverted; in addition, there is no house, or there is not even a stool or futon in the cave, what is the difference between talking about changing the world and talking about changing the world, and a group of aunts who are locked in the house and knitting sweaters around the stove, talking about maintaining world peace?
A scene like the Ethereal Immortal City, which is full of seven emotions and six desires, and is full of fireworks in the world, should be the most real scene and life in the fairy world.
The fragrant cooking cake stall opposite should have sold fifty cooking cakes, and the merchant who was carrying the wine seller next to him, and the customers kept coming to the door, and he should have sold a lot of wine, and even the little lady in red remembered that when she passed by last time, she bought cooking cakes, but this time she was holding a vegetable basket in her hand.
Pedestrians came and went in a hurry, none of them stopped in front of Hu Hou and the three of them, and Chen Qi, who went to attract customers, seemed to have disappeared. Seeing others doing business in full swing, the three of them were very discouraged, and the opening was not lucky!
"Senior brother, doesn't anyone know this thing! No matter how you look at it, no one will look at it?"
Regarding the fat man's suspicion, Hu Hou deeply agreed, "Or, let's shout and shout?"
"Okay, senior brother, you are the first to shout, and then I will shout with the fat man again. Peach Blossom First agreed
"Well, do you see, there's a guy in white in front of me coming up here, and when he gets in front of me, I'm shouting loudly. ”
The man in white clothes, with his head down, listless, looked dejected, didn't look around, just walked with his head down, anyone with a clear eye could see that he was unlucky and unlucky, and had no spending power, but Hu Hou was still ready to wait for him to come to the front, shouting loudly to try, do business but don't dare to judge people by their appearance.
Hu Hou cleared his throat, and when the guy just walked in front of him, he shouted loudly: "Come and take a look, take a look, don't miss it when you pass by, the freshly baked Xuandu Cave ......"
The white clothes were shouted by Hu Hou's sudden voice, and he jumped to the side in surprise, and raised his head in a daze.
Hu Hou asked the first customer who stopped with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, do you want to buy some freshly baked Xuandu Cave ......?"
"It's you!"
Both shouted at the same time, then at the same time.
"Storyteller. ”
"Little monsters. ”
This time he didn't recognize the wrong person, Hu Hou was sure that the other party not only recognized him, but also regarded himself as the storyteller of Peach Blossom Village.
Since the two parties are also acquaintances, they should take care of the business, so Hu Hou began to greet again: "Do you want to see ......?"
The other party's face turned red, he lowered his head and looked at his toes, and replied in a low voice: "It's a little inconvenient now......
It's inconvenient to have no money, Hu Hou immediately lost his good face, "Since this brother's pocket is empty, then don't get in the way of other guests." ”
The little monster looked at the front and back, and after not finding anyone, he protested: "Why are you like this, we are old people." ”
"Old man, do you know how frightened you were when you were in Peach Blossom Village, and suddenly flew into the sky, so scared that everyone thought that the monster was coming, and dragged the family to the mountains to hide, how frightened you were. ”
The little monster obviously didn't expect such a thing to happen, and was slightly stunned for a moment before he said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to cause you so much trouble, I apologize to you here." In Aoyu in the Xihai Sea, dare to ask Brother Taigui's surname?"
"Hu Hou of Peach Blossom Village," Hu Hou arched his hand perfunctorily, and then said, "I see that you have stayed up late, your eyes are dark, you are tired, and you are listless when you walk." ”
"Brother Hu, under the surname Ao Mingyu, he doesn't stay up late. ”
"I know, you've stayed up late, hurry up and go home and rest. ”
"My name is Ao Yu, not to stay up late. ”
"That's right, stay up late. ”
"You ......"
While the two were arguing, the fat man pulled Huhou's sleeve and said, "Senior brother, is that Xiong Er?"
Hu Hou turned his head to the left, and saw Xiong Eryi dressed as a water-green Xiucai Xiaosheng, with two cocked hat wings behind the hat on his head, shaking up and down, but he was not wearing colored pants on his lower body, and when he took a step, he would reveal two fluffy black thighs.
Hu Hou opened his mouth wide, he had completely forgotten to tease Ao Yu, could it be that Xiong Er changed his career to show off?
PS: Regarding the name of the little white dragon, I specially bought a genuine version of "Journey to the West", and also went to the library to check out different versions of "Journey to the West", but it did not directly give the name of the little white dragon, but only deduced the name of the little white dragon from a sentence said by Guanyin Bodhisattva. The original sentence is: "The Bodhisattva is called Jiedidao: You go to the side of the stream and shout 'Ao Yan Dragon King Yulong Third Prince......
But on the Du Niang Encyclopedia, the name of the little white dragon is Ao Lie, I don't know where this came from? But in order to make my writing smooth, I decided to use Ao Yu to name the little white dragon.
