Chapter 11 On the fierce competition in the beauty industry in the world of cultivating immortals
Seeing that the guests of Hanlu Pavilion were full of voices, Hua Wuji was in a good mood, and I saw him spin his body slightly, and a pair of colorful and graceful wings turned into a brilliant robe like clouds.
"The shopkeeper is back?!" a little second brother standing beside the cabinet with a gray head and a sagging face hurriedly greeted Hua Wuji when he saw it.
"There are so many guests, why don't I see you to greet you, why are you standing here with a sad face?" Hua Wuji said unhappily.
"Shopkeeper, although there are many of them, they don't know our customers!" The little second brother's face wrinkled and grew a bitter gourd.
Hua Wuji heard this, his brows suddenly locked, and then he turned his head to take a closer look, and sure enough, although the inside and outside of the hall had long been surrounded by water, it was only a little strange, that is, all the guests without exception, all of them had their butts facing inward and their faces outward, and everyone was laughing and talking while standing on tiptoe to look out.
"This flower jade powder is limited, and I don't know how long it will take to wait for our turn!"
"I heard that this is the shopkeeper of the Red Jade Workshop, Mi Qianhong, specially made it according to the recipe of the master of Luo Yao Courtyard, it is very rare!"
"The master of Luo Yao Courtyard is the only one who is favored by Bai Ranzun, presumably, these thoughts must be spent a lot on weekdays, and it is not wrong to buy this!"
......
After listening to it for a long time, I figured out that it turned out that these guests were actually queuing up to buy the flower and jade powder of the red jade shop opposite, because there were too many people, the team unconsciously lined up in this Hanlu Pavilion, turned his head to look at Hua Wuji's face, but saw that his face was white with blue, blue with purple, thinking that he was angry enough and couldn't have a seizure.
Suddenly, a piercing scream came from nowhere, "Bai Ran Zun!" The crowd in the foyer was suddenly ignited, and the screams came one after another, rushing out together.
Fortunately, I have seen such a formation, as early as the first scream, I jumped into Hua Wuji's arms, and it is true that I would like to see what kind of dignity he really looks like for this Bai Dye Zun, who has repeatedly caused commotion.
"It's coming, it's coming, look! It's here with the master of Luo Yao Courtyard again!"
At this time, Hua Wuji also hugged me and squeezed into the corridor outside the foyer, and looked along everyone's line of sight, but saw two beasts, one white and one red, flying far away in the clear and cloudless sky.
I once remembered that there was a book called "The Chronicles of Ancient Beasts" hidden in the old Taoist room, and when I had nothing to do, I always liked to turn a few pages, so that all the beasts contained in the book were like treasures, and the two that appeared in front of me at this time were among them.
The beast with a pair of huge wings in front of it is Huan Shu, I saw that its body was like a horse, the whole body was snow-white, a single horn on the forehead was born cold and proud, revealing a noble and elegant attitude, and the long mane from the top of the head to the neck was smooth and smooth as if it had been carefully cared for, and a pair of elegant wings exuded a shiny cold light under the sunlight.
And the one that followed behind was the famous golden-winged roc, its body was huge, the whole body was red, and the wings shone like gold when seen from a distance, lining the gorgeous and noble bearing of the owner on his back.
Because the distance was too far, I could only see the appearance of the beast, but as for the appearance of the person standing on it, it was vague and unclear, only looking at a man and a woman, one white and one purple.
I only felt a gust of fragrant wind blowing faintly, and I saw that the pair of Rui beasts had landed on the stone steps in front of the Taiji Gate, the tip of my nose shrugged, and my mind moved, so I closed my eyes slightly, and counted the source of the fragrance one by one, bergamot, lemon, orange blossom, jasmine, rose, lily of the valley, ylang-ylang, jasmine...... And also...... This cool breath is...... That's right, mint!
With the landing of the two beasts, the crowd couldn't help but exclaim again, I opened my eyes and wanted to take a look at this pair of beautiful people, thinking about it, Hua Wuji must have the same idea as me, so he rubbed forward with the surging crowd, I stretched my neck, Hua Wuji also tiptoed, but I just looked at the top of the head of the man in white, but I heard someone suddenly "oops", and in an instant, the sky swirled, and I was pressed into a piece of distorted meatloaf by Hua Wuji's indistinct trace.
I gasped hard, and it took me a long time to exhale in pain, I wanted to move my buttocks, but I couldn't move, I wanted to move my hind paws, but I couldn't move, I tried to move my front paws, hey, there was a play! But just as I was full of hope and carefully stretched out my two front paws, and wanted to get up, I saw a big foot suddenly step in front of me, and I stepped on my petite and weak dog paws with precision and rubbed them, yes, the cool air that had just been released from my belly was suddenly sucked in more vigorously.
Then, I retracted my claws and shouted angrily: "Hua Wuji, you get up for me!"
"I ...... I also remembered ......"
I felt that something was wrong, so I tried to turn my head to look up, but I saw a man with a disheveled hair pressing against me with a red face and white eyes, panting, if it weren't for the big golden robe on his body, I would have thought that some demon had caught me.
"Bai Dye Zun! Ah!" With bursts of screams, I only felt that my little flesh was flat and bounced back, flat and bounced back, flat and bounced back......
I don't know when the crowd dispersed, and I don't know when I was picked up by someone back into the Hanlu Pavilion, but I only know that when I woke up slowly, Hua Wuji, who was already as bright as ever, asked me in surprise, "Dog demon, where did you come from?" I was trampled on by that group of damned female Taoists for a long time, and my old intestines were about to vomit out, if it weren't for the Nine Revolutions Life Pill that saved me, I would have reported to the old man of Hades, you are good, except for the qi and blood retrograde cause syncope, not a single hair was injured, how can you have a King Kong incorruptible body?" ”
"Nine Turns of Life Pill? King Kong's incorruptible body?" If it weren't for Hua Wuji's constant pressure on me, how could I have been trampled on for so long, and I could not bear that ordeal, thinking of this, I couldn't help but clapped and roared angrily: "Okay, Hua Wuji, together, we were trampled on together, and you only took the elixir for yourself? You forgot, who pressed me down? If I die, the culprit is you!"
"This ...... This ......" Hua Wuji was yelled at by me, and immediately shook his eyebrows a few times, and said hesitantly: "I...... I also want to save you, but the Nine Turns Life Pill is very expensive, and the cost price has to be a hundred spirit beads......
He saw that I was still glaring at him with a fury, so he smiled again: "Xiao Li'er, I think you should be hungry, I invite you to eat skewers, from my own store!"
It's such a big plate, I happily accepted it, and asked Hua Wuji to help me put it on the small table by the attic window, eating and chatting with him.
"I really can't imagine that you, Hanlu Pavilion, still operate food?" I chewed and chewed and threw the matter of the Nine Turns of Life Pill out of the clouds, and stretched out my tongue to sweep around my mouth.
"Are you stupid or not, this Hanlu Pavilion is a fragrant powder shop, and Hua Ji on the other side is running this!How about it, how does it taste?" Hua Wuji asked with a smile.
"Also...... Ask?!" I answered him with my cheeks bulging, and my mouth was really not free.
"I won't tell you, I not only run a fragrant powder shop and a kebab shop, but also the Xinyi Newspaper Shop on Qishi Road, and the Six Realms Pharmacy on Chunxi Road are also owned by me, the skewer shop is doing well, and the pharmacies and newspaper shops are not badly operated, but this Hanlu Shop has always been bleak and deserted!
"Luo Yao, but the woman in purple who rode the golden-winged roc just now?" I asked.
"Yes, she is the only woman in this world who can go in and out with Bai Ranzun!" Hua Wuji said.
"It doesn't seem that the incense powder she used today is the flower jade powder sold in the red jade shop!"
"Oh, how do you know?" said Hua Wuji.
"Didn't you say it, the dog's nose is the smartest, do you want to know what spices are put in the incense powder she used today?" I took the last piece of meat on the wooden skewer into my mouth, not forgetting to sell it.
"Yes, yes, but can you?" asked Hua Wuji, whose eyes wandered around me several times.
"Looks like you don't want to know!" I regretfully pursed my mouth and turned to leave.
Hua Wuji saw that I was leaving, so he hurriedly reached out and grabbed me, and said with a sneer: "Slow! Slow! I want to know, I want to know!"
"Then bring me another plate!" I said, raising my paw to wipe my oily mouth.
