Chapter 10 Empty Visa
In Feng'an City, Lu Mingfei and Cangwei Lao Dao came to the street early every morning to set up a stall.
At first, business was dull, but Qingming is approaching, there are more and more pedestrians on the road, and Cangwei Old Road has some skills, and business has improved these days.
There are few fortune tellers, but many people seek medical treatment.
Yan Lingshan is good at alchemy, and it is not a problem to treat the big and small diseases in the market with some herbs.
It's just that although there are many people who ask for consultations, every prescription can only make a penny, which is far from the goal set by Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei is not in a hurry, and Cangwei is not in a hurry.
Living in seclusion in the mountains is of great benefit to the improvement of cultivation, but now that he has reached such a realm, if he wants to continue to improve, cultivation is essential, and the improvement of the state of mind is also indispensable.
Originally, Cangwei Lao Dao chose some high-ranking families as guests, and they were all treated as guests, but this experience had little effect on the improvement of mood, but he followed Lu Mingfei in the market, and it seemed that the effect was better.
Lao Dao carried a gourd with him, which contained pills of different sizes, and from time to time he would take it out and show it off in front of Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei also asked about the role of these elixirs, and every time he mentioned it, Cangwei Lao Dao would always be very proud, and he would introduce it endlessly, some would heal, some would detoxify, more would improve cultivation, and some would have other special effects, such as people who cultivate immortals can prolong their lives and maintain their youth forever after taking them.
Lu Mingfei wanted to grab two pills every time to taste them, but he was stopped by Cangwei Lao Dao, and explained to Lu Mingfei in a serious voice: "Senior brother, although these pills have excellent effects, they can't be taken at will. ”
Naturally, Lu Mingfei has always scoffed at such an explanation, and only felt that the old way was stingy.
Day after day, just like this, Lu Mingfei made a move, greeted the guests on the street, and the rest of the month passed in a hurry, and it was Qingming time in a blink of an eye.
On this day, there was a spring rain in the sky, and the pedestrians on the street were slightly less than usual.
A woman walked on the street in the distance, wearing a hat woven of grass and rattan, with a tattered black veil covering her face, leading a thin old horse, coarse black clothes and straw shoes could not hide her graceful figure.
In broad daylight, this kind of dress is somewhat eye-catching, and after passing the hexagram stall, Lu Mingfei also glanced at the woman curiously.
The woman didn't care about Lu Mingfei's gaze, turned her head to look at the bun shop, and walked over with the horse.
"Auntie, how do you sell buns?"
The woman asked softly.
Aunt Xu hurriedly stopped what she was doing, came to the front of the stall, and said enthusiastically: "Buns cost two pennies a piece." ”
"Give me four. ”
The woman spoke, reached out and touched her waist, and then asked, "How do you sell steamed buns?"
Aunt Xu replied: "Steamed buns are a penny." ”
The woman hesitated for a moment, then changed her mind and said, "Then give me four steamed buns." ”
Then put the four coins in Aunt Xu's dustpan containing the money.
After taking the steamed bun, the woman picked one up and put it to her mouth, covered it with black veil, and ate it in a blink of an eye.
Later, the woman went to the other side of the street, a stall selling incense, candles, and paper money, bought a paper flower basket, and prepared to leave.
At some point, Lu Mingfei came behind the woman, he grinned, and reached out to grab the woman's hat.
"The girl doesn't have a rash on her face, come to my senior brother to take a look, and ensure that a prescription medicine will cure the disease. ”
When you speak, you will lift your hat.
The woman couldn't see her expression, but there was an indescribable cold and murderous aura all over her body, and she suddenly stretched out a hand and stopped Lu Mingfei directly.
Lu Mingfei only felt a strong coming, which made him unable to resist, and he was pushed by the other party.
This action was too intense, and the corner of the hat was lifted, revealing half of the woman's face, the bridge of the nose was straight, and the red lips were dripping, where did the rash come from.
At the same time, the three steamed buns held by the woman also rolled to the ground.
Although the woman was unceremoniously, Lu Mingfei didn't mind, and hurriedly smiled: "Don't be angry, girl, I have no malice." ”
The woman ignored her anymore and turned around to pick up the three steamed buns, but the road was slippery, and the steamed buns were already stained with muddy water, and they couldn't be eaten anymore.
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but feel a little guilty, and wanted to compensate the other party for three steamed buns, but he was reluctant to give up those copper plates in his heart.
Picked up the three steamed buns before the woman, wiped the mud stains and said: "It's a pity, the steamed buns that are still hot, I should have paid the girl, but I don't have a copper plate on me, so it's better to do this, the girl came to my stall to count a hexagram, and she didn't take a penny." ”
The woman didn't want to deal with Lu Mingfei, led the horse and prepared to leave, and when she turned around, she glanced at the hexagram stall, hesitated slightly, and then really followed Lu Mingfei to the old hexagram stall.
Cangwei Lao Dao and the woman in black glanced at each other, but at this glance, both of them had seen that the other party was cultivated and was not an ordinary person.
Before sitting on the table, the woman said softly: "It's the first time you come to Feng'an City, please take a look at the good luck of this trip?"
Although the sound is flat, it is like a trickle of spring water, refreshing.
Lao Dao smiled and said nothing, Lu Mingfei stood aside and said, "This girl, since you look at your appearance, how can you look with a hat?"
Cang Wei waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay to look at palmistry." ”
The woman slowly stretched out her right hand and spread it out in front of the two.
The five fingers are slender and slender, but there are many tiny calluses at the joints, which is really a bit of a bad scenery.
In the palm of the hand, where the two palm prints meet, there is a small red mole, which is brightly colored.
Seeing the red mole, Cangwei Lao Dao couldn't help but be a little moved, and then said to himself: "Born from the intersection, or for blood, or peach blossoms, it all depends on the girl's will. ”
The woman looked at the lottery holder on the table and said softly, "In that case, why don't I draw a lot." ”
The sign holder was left by Jia Banxian, both upper, middle and lower, the strange thing is that after Lu Mingfei set up the hexagram stall, dozens of people came to the hexagram stall to draw lots, but no matter what, the draw was always successful.
Only one medicine farmer once drew a lot, and the man turned his head and found a century-old ginseng in the mountains, and exchanged fifty taels of silver in the pharmacy.
Because of this, Lu Mingfei also believed a little bit about the mystery in this lottery holder.
The woman was about to stretch out her hand, but Cang Wei stopped her and asked, "If the girl wins the lottery or the lottery, will she change her mind and turn around and leave Feng'an City?"
The woman shook her head.
Cang Wei smiled faintly and said, "Since your mind has been decided, why do you have to smoke it again." ”
The woman stood up and turned to leave, but then seemed to change her attention, and pulled out a bamboo stick in the pot like lightning.
didn't look at it, and threw it directly in front of Cangwei.
"Since you're here, you might as well smoke one, I don't look at whether it's good or bad. ”
With that, the woman led the horse towards the crowd.
The back is a little lonely.
Lu Mingfei was a little curious, and hurriedly picked up the bamboo stick on the table, but saw that the stick was empty, and it was just an empty stick.
