Chapter 5 I've seen Ermu for a long time

This city is called Lin'an.

Lin'an City extends in all directions, the river is vertical and horizontal, and you can see the stone bridge with arch like the moon everywhere, and the people with blue tile and gray walls.

On the river, boatmen sing songs and swing oars, passing under the bridge and heading farther away, leading to the great river outside, where the wharf is at its busiest on the eve of sunset.

The porter pulls the boat, the porter unloads, and the little beggar who steals the baggage hides in the alley not far from the dock and begins to divide the spoils.

"Look, look, what's in there. ”

The clothes in the baggage were thrown out one after another, and the small baggage hidden in the clothes fell to the ground.

One of the things inside was shattered.

The pink handkerchief flipped up a corner, unable to hide the green jade bracelet that had been broken in half.

The beggars looked down and thought that the broken bracelet would be worth a few pennies.

Worthless.

If it's broken, it's worthless.

Xu Lai, who was belated, was distressed, stared at the anxious beggar and patted his head, and scolded: "You haven't seen money in eight lifetimes? Why are you so anxious? A jade bracelet is so broken, they won't accept it when you take it to the pawnshop, and you will ......."

"What will be?"

Xu Lai faced a group of ignorant accomplices, calmly picked up the jade bracelet on the ground and checked it, knocking and looking at the light carefully.

It is rumored that the jade bracelet is a spiritual jewelry, and if it is accidentally broken, it may also cause disaster, but the poor sour boy who ate the big cake just now can have a real jade jade bracelet?

Hopefully, not be.

"Xu Lai, what are you looking at?" The beggars didn't know that he had the ability to appreciate the treasure, but they only knew that every time he robbed the jewelry, Xu Lai could get back more silver from the pawnshop.

"Xu Lai, speak. ”

There was a lot of noise around him, Xu Lai was upset, got up and walked to the side and took a good look at the light, and now he saw the inside of the jade bracelet clearly, which is true.

It's over.

Xu Lai is a person who believes in demons, ghosts, and immortals in this world, and naturally believes that breaking the jade will bring disaster.

Jade can't do anything to him, but the spirit monsters that live in this jade are not necessarily.

He didn't care to blame the careless accomplice, he turned around in a panic and picked up the remaining bracelet on the ground, wrapped it with a pink handkerchief and put it on the steps next to him, and began to bow his head and explain: "Jade Daxian." He folded his hands and bowed hurriedly, "Please, don't remember the villain's mistakes, and don't come to us." ”

"Xu Lai, what's wrong with you?" the beggars looked at Xu Lai, who looked like a ghost, and didn't understand what was going on at all.

Xu Lai rolled his eyes impatiently at the stunned accomplices next to him, turned around and begged for mercy for them: "A few of us are unintentional, we will definitely burn paper for you to worship in the coming year, you are tired, and then find a place to settle down, there are a lot of good things in the pawnshop in the west of the city, you can live whatever you like, don't be polite to us." ”

"Xu Lai. The beggar who had dropped the bracelet shouted at him, and he was in the middle of Xu Lai's arms.

"Shut up. Xu Lai said angrily, "Why don't you hurry up and apologize to Jade Daxian." ”

The beggars were puzzled one by one, Xu Lai was too lazy to explain, and said impatiently: "If you don't want to be sought revenge, come over and apologize, this jade is a genuine jade, and it has attracted a lot of popularity, and it is about to become a sperm." ”

Demons and monsters or something, the beggars passed by the teahouse, but they heard the storyteller inside mention a sentence or two, and they didn't really hear it, but they also knew that this demon was not easy to mess with, and compared to those powerful people, they would hurt people's lives if they didn't agree with each other.

The beggar who lost the jade began to realize the seriousness of this matter, but he did not believe that there would really be a demon that harmed people's lives in this always peaceful Lin'an City, and it was because he broke a jade bracelet.

If you want him to say, there are more people who accidentally break things in the world, can everyone become a sperm?

Besides.

Xu Lai stared at him, and he had to explain in a low voice: "I didn't expect someone to hide jewelry in their clothes." ”

"Then you see it now. Xu Lai calmed his face and threatened, "Do you still want to see Chengjing's jade appear and kill us all?"

Of course not, the beggar who made a mistake asked Xu Lai, who understood the most reason: "Then what should I do now?"

"Apologies. Xu Lai and the beggars who were already apologizing said in unison.

When Muyang arrived, he saw a group of people bending down and worshipping the ground in front of him, and he didn't understand what kind of wind they had hit, so he ignored them.

He had already seen that his burden was on the same step as they were worshipping, and leaned over lightly, thinking that it would not startle the snake, so he had to sneak over and take it and run.

Before they could get closer, they had finished worshipping, and the little beggar who had just grabbed his hand picked up his burden and said to the rabble, "It's bad luck here, let's change places." ”

Xu Lai walked in front, and the beggars obediently followed, and one of them asked: "Xu Lai, when we go to the pawnshop to sell things, can we still get together and drink together as usual?" ”

"Shhhh Xu Lai's dissatisfied voice couldn't reach Mu Yang's side, but Mu Yang had already seen that this guy was the thief.

Capture the thief and capture the king first.

Mu Yang decided to follow this guy named Xu Lai, his accomplice had already sold him just now, now that he knew the name, it would be much easier to find someone.

It's a big deal that he made himself a little more down, and then went to the beggar on the street to ask if he knew a guy named Xu Lai.

This is the next step.

Muyang didn't want to do this, and finding Xu Lai couldn't guarantee that he was alone, looking at the clothes of several of them, they didn't look like a homeless beggar who didn't help wash his clothes, and he would definitely be able to catch him when he was alone.

Pawnshop?

Mu Yang thought about the word they had just mentioned as he walked forward, okay, let's go to the pawnshop first and wait for the rabbit.

He turned to leave, noticed something on the steps and stopped.

It is a bracelet.

Muyang ran over, and the moment he saw it clearly, the whole person was stunned in place, and his expression was not relaxed, this was a token left by his mother for him to find his father.

It took generations for my father to pass it down, and my father gave the bracelet to my mother.

Now that it is placed on the handkerchief, it is broken in half like this, how can he accept it?

If you rob it, you still have a chance to get it back.

If it's broken, it's really broken.

Even if none of the beggars who robbed him were older than him, Muyang didn't want to just verbally warn them that stealing was bad behavior.

In the empty alley, Mu Yang's eyes were red.

He swore that he would catch the man who had broken his bracelet and beat him to relieve his anger.

But he doesn't have that yet.

Look at it for a long time.

Muyang picked up the bracelet.

Pawnshop in the west of the city.

The signboard with the word "dian" was blown by the wind for a day, Muyang hid in the dark, and no one came when it was time to eat dinner, and after eating the flatbread, he thought that he would have to find a job in this city tomorrow.

There are many ships and goods on the dock, and as an unloading porter, you can also find out some news with those merchants who come and go.

I just don't know if this porter is so good.

Muyang sighed, sighing is the way of the world, like to make people, no matter how poor he is, he is not willing to take the jade bracelet away, this time it is good that it was broken directly, I want to know that it was not intentionally dropped, but unfortunately I can't know how many taels of silver this bracelet can be worth.

He has already found a place to bury him, and if he doesn't have the ability to break the mirror and reunite, he will only touch the scene.

Alas.

Muyang sighed again, the whole person was depressed and couldn't keep up, someone walked into the pawnshop in front of him, he looked up suddenly, disappointed that it was just a little girl with a headscarf who went in.
