Chapter 74: Ten Thousand Kinds
Song You walked slowly, looking carefully. I can feel that these goblins and ghosts have different feelings for him, the inexplicable intruder, some are unfamiliar, some are wary, some are curious, some are resistant, and some are even afraid.
Therefore he did not speak, but looked first at the Lord. These goblins and goblins use human copper coins, but they are not limited to dynasties, and they are used by any dynasty.
I have not seen any silver. The price of goods is very different from that of Yamashita Town. Pots and pans, all kinds of ironware are sold very expensive, and they sell well, the price of clothes and fabrics is obviously higher than that of Yamashita Market Town, and the price of meat is slightly lower than that of Yamashita Market Town.
There are also some things that are rare on the outside, and the prices vary. There are even those who sell books. In addition to the works of celebrities, Taoist scriptures and Buddhist books, there are also collections of strange things written by people.
Song You had an idea in his heart - if a businessman came here and resold back and forth, it would definitely be very profitable, I am afraid that it would be a small Silk Road.
"......" Song You smiled secretly in his heart and walked to the first stall. It is a stall that sells ham.
The whole whole pork ham, after the slice is opened, itself is very beautiful, and when the candlelight shines, it is even more attractive.
Either the craftsmanship is excellent, or the meat is very good. The stall owner was a tall man with a leopard's head.
"The stall owner is polite." Song You walked to the stall, looked down, remained polite, and asked the stall owner, "How do you sell ham?" Do you also collect the money of the Dayan Dynasty? ”
"Do!" The knife of the slice of meat is inserted into the cutting board. The stall owner's leopard head stared at Song You, his eyes were round, and there was only a small dot left in his pupil, he shrugged his nose a few times, and looked at him for a while before saying, "Are you human?" ”
"Exactly."
"How did you get in?"
"In the downstream calendar, passing through this mountain, before going to bed, I saw that there were lights on this side of the mountain, and I walked in along the fire and the path."
"You should get out."
"I'm going to get out." Song You smiled and saluted again: "It's just that you're here, you might as well take a look, walk around and go." ”
"Let's go!"
"I see that the ham sold by the stall owner is of the highest quality, and I happened to pick the mountain mushrooms to cook the soup tonight, and I was still thinking about it when I drank it, if there was an old hen or a few slices of good ham to add it......" Song You shook his head and smiled,
"I just met the foot, so it can be seen that there is fate."
"Don't sell to people."
"Why?"
"It's not where people come from."
"In the city under the mountain, there are many demons and ghosts." Song You paused,
"It's not a place where people come from, so it's especially difficult to meet stall owners here."
"Do you really want to buy it?"
"Ask."
"One hundred and one tael!"
"......" Before he knew it, there was a circle of goblins and ghosts in the mountains around him, staring at them as if they were strange.
Song You only lowered his head and looked carefully: "This is wild boar?" ”
"Where do you get so much wild boar to eat? Grandpa raised it himself. The stall owner glared at him coldly.
"It's a good breed."
"How many taels do you want?"
"It's just that I'm a little puzzled...... Song You shook his head, raised his head and looked at the stall owner with a leopard's head: "Why do you sell it to others for a hundred yuan and a catty, and sell it to me for a hundred yuan and a tael?" The stall owner stared straight at him, and even leaned closer to him, but there was not the slightest fear on his face, so that he seemed to have no tricks, so he said, "If you don't buy it, go buy it somewhere else!" Those dead ghosts may sell them to you! ”
"Why? Just because I'm human? ”
"So what?" Song You was a little puzzled. There are all kinds of demons and ghosts here, all kinds of things, there is no shortage of natural enemies before becoming a spirit, and they can live in harmony, why do they exclude themselves?
"I have never despised my feet because my feet are demons, why should my feet despise me because I am a human being?"
"You don't know? People are not welcome here. ”
"Why?"
"Why are there so many!?" The stall owner was a little annoyed,
"Aren't demons not welcome by people?"
"Don't you look like I'm not a welcome demon?"
"......" was asked by him, and the stall owner was really stunned for a moment. Then he looked at this person from top to bottom again, and saw that he was in the world of demons and ghosts, not only calm, but also very natural, without the slightest fear, nor the slightest disgust, and then his eyes swept to the feet of this person, and saw a three-flowered cat standing up like a human, sticking to the man's legs, raising his head and quietly aiming at himself, and pulling the Taoist's trouser leg with one paw.
The stall owner thought for a while, and then snorted coldly: "People are treacherous and cunning, ruthless, you see so many mountain demons and ghosts behind you, naturally spirits, except for a few wild ghosts, how many people like people?" ”
"That's a mistake." Song You didn't agree with his statement: "In our rumors, most of the goblins and ghosts are not good people, and they often hurt people's lives. But most people are not equal to everyone, and those goblins and goblins who hurt people and kill people do not represent all goblins and ghosts, just as I came here, and I have never discriminated against Zuxia because of this, why should Zuxia discriminate against me because of this? ”
"You ......"
"Take a break." Song You hurriedly consoled,
"It's all become a demon, you still have to be more patient, it's too irritable and irritable, and it's useless to practice."
"Do you have to buy my ham?"
"I don't have to, I just think it's good, and I have the idea of buying it, so I came over and asked." Song Youhe and Qiqi,
"It doesn't matter much whether to buy or not to buy, but I am a little puzzled by treating me like this, so I can't help but say a few more words with my foot, if there is an offense, well, if there is an offense, be patient at the step."
"You want to ......" Before the stall owner could finish his words, the crowd of onlookers suddenly moved out of the way, and two figures crowded over.
Song You and the stall owner both looked over. Both figures are humanoid. A completely humanoid person, but born with big shoulders and a round waist, pity this dress, I am afraid that I will be relieved to be able to put him in.
One was equally strong, but taller, with the head of a buffalo on its neck and two curved horns. It is worth mentioning that these two are wearing the same clothes, which look like poor clothes, but they are slightly different from the color system of Da Yan's official difference.
Maybe it's the bad clothes of some previous dynasty. There is still a market town in this town
"Official errand"? Song You was a little surprised. Because most of the market towns of the human race under the mountain have no official errands, and the common people gather spontaneously, although the temple fairs in the city are patrolled by officials, it is mainly because they are in the city.
However, thinking that there are all goblins and ghosts here, with different types and special circumstances different from humans, Song You also understands.
I saw these two walk out of the crowd in a few steps. When the two monsters arrived, they were menacing, but when they saw Song You wearing a Taoist robe, and then looked at the three-flowered cat beside him, he hesitated for a moment, and knew that the person who broke in was not the same as usual, not an ordinary person, his expression was slightly restrained, but he was still very imposing.
"Where did the foot come from? Where are you going? Why? Hurry up! ”
"Under the surname Song Mingyou, a mountain person in Lingquan County, Yizhou, traveled the world, passed through this mountain, met your place to open the market, followed the light behind the mountain and walked in, if there is any rudeness, please forgive me."
"You're a monk?"
"Yes."
"Which Taoist temple?"
"Yin Yang Mountain, Fulong Temple."
As soon as the words of "......" came out, the onlookers didn't realize that there was anything, and the one who gave birth to the horns of the cow
The "poor person" didn't think there was anything, but the big waist and round body had a condensed expression. I only heard the horn messenger ask, "What are you doing in this place?" ”
"It wasn't intentional." Song marched and said,
"I just want to buy some ham, maybe everyone has rarely seen a living person here, so I came to watch."
"I see." The horned messenger nodded,
"This is a market town opened by the mountain goblins between my mountains, once a season, it is not easy for humans to walk in safely, even if there is no intention to break in, we usually do not hold you responsible, you are a cultivator, so leave by yourself."
"Since I came in, it is also fate, I feel that there are many strange places here, I want to see more, I don't know if it is convenient to be satisfied."
"Huh?" The bull's eyes were as big as a bell. But at this time, he felt his colleague next to him pat him on the shoulder, and then his colleague stepped forward alone, although he was puzzled, but he also closed his mouth.
"Since the Venerable Master is a cultivator, he should know the truth that there are all kinds of differences, this place is not a good place for human beings, it is better to come with me, I will take the Venerable Master out."
"Isn't it a good place to go?" Song You was puzzled,
"I want to hear about it."
"Although this place is a mortal world, it is a place where demons and ghosts gather, in addition to us, there are many fierce and unwise evil creatures wandering outside, it is difficult for mortals to find here, and it is difficult to come here. And if you stay here for a long time, it's easy to lose your mind and can't get out. The bear-like man paused,
"Naturally, the Venerable Master is highly powerful, and I am not afraid of this, but we are all vulgar and barbaric mountain goblins and ghosts, so why should the Venerable Master play with us here?"
"This is not true, they are all creatures between heaven and earth, what is the difference between humans and demons?" Song You paused,
"And in my opinion, everyone is here in the market, they are all friendly with each other, buying and selling, and the two of them are also pure-hearted and convincing people with reason, where is it vulgar and barbaric?"
"......" The poor man was silent for a moment, but he no longer persuaded him, and only bowed to Song You: "Then please respect the teacher for yourself." It's just that the market here is only open at night, and the Venerable Master must leave before dawn, otherwise he may not be able to find his way back. As soon as he finished speaking, he looked around again, thought about it and said: "Meeting is rare, the immortal master has never lost etiquette, everyone should treat each other politely, don't be too vulgar." ”
"Thank you."
"Respect the teacher Mo Xie...... Huh! The big guys are scattered! It's scattered, it's stuck here, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, it's going to be time! As he spoke, he roared, and it was the roar of a bear.
The onlookers were waved away by him. Looking at that appearance, it is really no different from Yamashita officials. Song You bowed to him, and also to the onlookers and ghosts, then turned around and looked at the leopard stall owner: "Can the stall owner sell it to me at this time?" The stall owner's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pulled out his knife from the stall with lightning speed.
"Brush!" A thin piece of ham, almost semi-transparent, rested on the blade of the knife and handed it to Song You.
"Taste it!"
"Thank you." Song You carefully twisted it. The stall owner has a good knife skill, and the cut is so thin that it has a paper-like texture when picked up.
The best ham is also very delicious when eaten raw, Song You doesn't know what the quality of this ham is, he just feels that the saltiness in the mouth is not strong, fragrant but not greasy, the shredded meat is tough, the more you chew, the more fragrant it is, I already feel that it is the best grade, but after swallowing it, the fragrance comes back, and I feel that the aftertaste is endless.
Youkai have this craft?
"Eight wen one tael, one hundred and twenty-one catties, buy a whole one, and you can spare a little." The leopard stall owner saw that Song You liked it, his eyes narrowed, and he was also a little proud.
"It was still a pound just now, why am I still more expensive?"
"People negotiated the price."
"Then please give me a hundred pounds!"
"How much?"
"Two pounds up and down, cut into thin slices."
"Yes!" The knife in the stall owner's hand was unusually sharp, and the technique was also familiar, I saw him slash through the ham, and each time the knife went down, a piece of paper-like ham was sliced down and fell on the table, and the slight hissing sound was as clean as the technique, which seemed to sound like a pleasure.
Song You glanced at the table, it was not very clean. Maybe they don't care about that.
