Chapter 10 The charlatan, the fat Taoist
"I said, Miss, can you buy less, we don't come out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, if you let the master know, blame it, you have to throw this fault to me. Ryuuji looked at Lei Xiao who was bouncing in front of him, looking at the objects the size of his body, with a sad face.
"What's the matter, don't you want to be scolded a few times for Miss Ben?" Lei Xiao turned his head and glanced at Ryuuji.
Ryuji smiled: "Willingly." ”
"Miss Ben just said, how can Ryuji be willing to let Miss Ben be scolded by the master, right?"
Long Er's waist stiffened: "With my Long Er here, I will never let Lei Xiao be scolded by the master!"
"Yes, I give you a smile. Lei Xiao's eyes bent into crescent moons.
Long Er on the side looked straight away, and when Lei Xiao had already gone away, he was still giggling there.
"Silly Ryuji, are you going or not leaving?" Lei Xiao shouted in the distance, waving his hand at her.
"It's coming!" Ryuuji chased after him with a smile.
Lei Xiao stopped in front of a stall, and his eyes lit up as he watched the dazzling array of rouge gouache on it. As soon as he reached out and picked up a gouache box, Ryuuji hurriedly stopped Lei Xiao.
"Do what?" asked Lei Xiao muttering to him.
Ryuji patted the purse on his waist: "My eldest lady, we really don't have any money, don't buy these." ”
"Didn't you ask you to bring all the money in the shop before you went out, how did you spend it so quickly?
Seeing Lei Xiao questioning himself, Long Er just bent down so that Lei Xiao's fingers could touch the tip of his nose, and then he said: "Heaven and earth conscience, how could I, Long Er, do those dirty things behind the back of the eldest lady, it's just that we are an arms shop, not a money bank, how much money can we make? We are a small business, where does the noise come from?"
"That's right, it's all because you said you were going to open an iron shop, and after two years of hard work, Miss Ben didn't have the money to buy a rouge gouache. Lei Xiao pouted and put the gouache in his hand back on the stall.
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. Don't talk about these things yet, we should find an inn to live in first, this is not far from the Three Puritans, have you figured out how to find out what the master has explained?" Ryuuji asked.
Lei Xiaoyi frowned: "Alas, the things explained by the master are too troublesome, how can Miss Ben have the leisure to think about it these days, and wait until today." ”
When Long Er heard this, he sighed in his heart, why did he bother to ask so much? If Lei Xiao could take this matter to heart, then he would have seen a ghost in the daytime.
Lei Xiao didn't care, but Long Er always took this matter to heart, he knew that although Feng Wudao was extremely sympathetic to them on weekdays, even if the things he explained couldn't be done, he never said anything. But if it involves something that he attaches great importance to, then Feng Wudao should not make a mistake, but his life.
Although the letter brought by Yi Yeqing was written in black ink, it was not an important thing for Feng Wudao, but after all, it was the first thing that Feng Wudao handed over to them when he left Su Yecheng, and he must not be messed up.
The three courts of Taoism are the Three Puritans, Taizhen, and Chongming. They are now in a small town not far from the Three Puritudes, if they don't make plans, can they just walk into the Three Puritans like this, and ask when they see people? Long Er is only afraid that he and Lei Xiao will be surrounded by the audience and disciples, and if they are asked rhetorically, wouldn't they be asking for trouble.
Looking at Lei Xiao's appearance, he hasn't been out for too long. I've been in the armory shop for two years, and as soon as I went out, I played with a lot of sex, so it was really impossible for her to converge. Ryuuji looked up at the green mountains in the distance, and the Three Puritans were in the mountains. How to probe, this is sad for Ryuuji.
When Long Er was worried, Lei Xiao didn't know where to go, and Long Er hurriedly looked for it, but saw Lei Xiao squatting in front of a fortune teller Taoist stall. This Taoist priest has a fat head and big ears, and his Taoist robe is still patched, and the most conspicuous thing is that his head is also a "hairless place". The Taoist priest waved the dust in his hand, looked at Lei Xiao who was squatting in front of the stall with a smile, and asked: "Little girl, but do you want to tell the hexagram?
Long Er saw the appearance of the Taoist priest, he really didn't look like a master, but like a charlatan, so he walked behind Lei Xiao and said, "Miss, let's go to the inn first." ”
Lei Xiao looked at the few big characters in front of the fortune telling booth, and then asked with a smile: "Daoist, you said that you are from the Sanqing Sect, but what evidence do you have?"
The fat-headed and big-eared Taoist priest said, "If a monk doesn't lie, what proof do you need? If you don't believe it, the poor Taoist can take you back to the meditation." ”
"Is that true?" asked Lei Xiao with squinted eyes.
"Now that Poor Dao has already spoken, can this still be fake? But little girl, you have to count a hexagram in Poor Dao. The Taoist priest said.
Long Er shook his head and sighed, this Taoist priest obviously deceived Lei Xiao to take care of his business, if he calculated the hexagram and gave the money, this Taoist priest was not a person of the Three Puritans, what could they do? Thinking about it, Long Er pulled Lei Xiao and said, "Let's go." ”
Lei Xiao waved his hand at Ryuuji.
"What for?" Ryuji asked her.
Lei Xiao said: "Of course it's taking silver, it won't really be all used up, right?"
Ryuuji touched his purse, his heart ached, and he didn't hand it over to Lei Xiao for a long time.
Lei Xiao snatched the purse and asked the Taoist priest, "How much money does it cost to calculate a hexagram?"
"No more, no less silver or two. The Taoist priest shook his head and said.
"One or two lines of silver?" Long Er said loudly, and then snatched back the purse in Lei Xiao's hand, and said: "He is a charlatan, how can you still believe it, go quickly, we will go to find an inn now!"
"Why are you young man spewing blood? Poor Taoist divination prices have always been like this, how can you be a liar?" The Taoist morale was red-faced, shook the dust, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Lei Xiao squatted in front of the stall, motionless, staring at Ryuuji with his chin in one hand.
"Do you really believe him?" Ryuuji was also angry in his heart, not wanting Lei Xiao to be deceived by this person.
Lei Xiao just smiled and didn't speak.
Ryuuji sighed, stuffed the purse into Lei Xiao's hand, turned around, and simply didn't look at it. One or two lines of silver, how much iron do you have to hit to earn it back, and you were deceived by a Taoist priest in a few words.
"Daoist, this is one or two pieces of silver, you put it away, Miss Ben wants to see if you are accurate or not. Lei Xiao looked at the Taoist priest and said.
Then he opened one eye, glanced at the silver in Lei Xiao's hand, swept the silver on the stall with a whisk, and hurriedly reached out to grab it and stuffed it into his sleeve. Only then did he cough twice, and said with a smile: "For the sake of the girl's sincerity, the poor road will be counted as a hexagram for the girl." ”
"Speak quickly, speak quickly. Lei Xiao urged.
The fat Taoist priest looked Lei Xiao up and down, looked at Long Er again, and said, "The two of you are strangers. ”
"Uh-huh. Lei Xiao nodded.
"The two of them came here to find someone. ”
Lei Xiao nodded again.
"If Poor Dao is not mistaken, the two came from the outside, and came here to join relatives and friends, presumably the two families suffered from the trouble, and the family fell into the middle of the road, so this young lady left home, and this young man is a servant of the young lady's family. Poor Dao is right?"
Lei Xiao still nodded and didn't speak.
Long Er on the side couldn't bear it anymore, except for a sentence that a foreigner said correctly, where else was it right? If he said it was a foreigner, he could know by listening to the accent, and he was still counted?
"I said that you are a charlatan, what kind of master in the Three Puritans? Only my eldest lady will believe you. Hurry up and get the silver back!"
The fat Taoist priest hurriedly covered his cuffs: "You young man, poor Taoist thinks that you are young and have never seen the world." Why do you still have to slander the poor Dao after forbearance many times? This money has already been given to the poor Dao, and the poor Dao has also calculated the hexagram, how can there be any reason to return it?"
Long Er had already confirmed in his heart that this was a liar, if he wasn't afraid that Lei Xiao would be angry, he would have started to snatch back the silver.
"Taoist priest, since Miss Ben has also given the money and the hexagram has been forgotten, can you take the two of me on a trip to the Three Puritans?
Lei Xiao asked with a smile.
Your fat Taoist cigarette butt sighed and said: "It's not that Poor Dao is unwilling, it's just that although the money has been given and the hexagram has been calculated, Poor Dao and the two still have not yet arrived, and I think I can't take the two to the Three Puritans." ”
"You!" Long Er finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart this time, rushed forward, grabbed the fat Taoist by the collar, and said, "Quickly return the silver two!"
The fat Taoist priest looked panicked, and the beads of sweat on his forehead flowed: "Young man, don't be impatient." If you really want to take the two of you to the Three Puritans, you can do that. It's just that Poor Dao hasn't eaten a meal today, and he really can't walk the mountain road, if the two invite Poor Dao to have a meal, Poor Dao will definitely take the two to the Three Puritans. ”
"Do you dare to talk nonsense again, just because we are stupid?" If it weren't for the fact that Long Er had too many things on his body, he would have punched and beaten people a long time ago, how could he continue to listen to the fat Taoist priest continue to talk here.
"Okay, since you said so, Daoist, then Miss Ben will invite you to have a meal, just pick good wine and good food. Lei Xiao stood up, patted Long Er, and said to the Taoist priest.
"The girl may have been the master of this young man? Poor Dao is really afraid that he will fight, Poor Dao is a cultivator, and his fist and foot skills are not very good. The fat Taoist priest wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.
"It's done, it's done. Look at you, the fat Taoist priest is scared, can he still eat you?" Lei Xiao looked at the fat Taoist priest's frightened appearance, covered his mouth and giggled.
"Let the girl laugh, then the poor road will choose the best restaurant in this town, the poor road will tell you, the lion head in that restaurant is really delicious, when the time comes, you can ask for a few more plates." ”
Lei Xiao agreed again and again.
Ryuuji on the side was facing the sky with his back to the sky, and the resentment and helplessness in his heart made him really not what to do. A liar Taoist, an innocent Lei Xiao, is really a "good show" sung.
