Chapter 288 Begging for Food
The grass is all over the ground, the flowers are fragrant, and there are no trees here, so it is impossible to find dry firewood. There was no way, Zhou Feng could only use his energy mana to bake the cleaned carp. He carried the fish in one hand and the stove in the other, controlled the heat as he wanted, and soon the grilled fish was cooked thoroughly, and the fragrance was ten miles. Since the salt on Zhou Feng's body had long been used up, the faint fish meat lacked a delicious feeling.
Lin Qiuyao devoured the grilled fish, her hands and face were stained with oil, she buried her head until she finished gnawing the whole fish, and then she smiled at Zhou Feng with satisfaction.
"Come, Qiu Yao, I'll help you wash your hands and face. Looking at Lin Qiuyao's silly smile, Zhou Feng was very distressed, this former demon princess has become like this now, and she blames herself for not taking good care of her.
Helping Lin Qiuyao wash her hands and face, Zhou Feng decided to take her to find a famous doctor to treat this crazy disease.
But in this world of cultivation, it is rare to hear of the existence of famous doctors, birth, old age, sickness and death are all treated by pills, the nobles are strong, and the pills are diverse, through this, some people can live to hundreds of years old. And the poor people were penniless, and they had never even seen the appearance of the pill, so they could only wait to be tortured by illness and die. If a poor person wants to turn over, he can only become a cultivator, but how can it be so easy to become a cultivator.
After careful consideration, Zhou Feng decided to take Lin Qiuyao to the imperial city of the human race and ask the rich family for the elixir to cure the disease.
Along the way, Zhou Feng carried Lin Qiuyao through the clouds and fog, telling her good memories of the past, hoping to wake her up again, but Lin Qiuyao just smirked when she heard these stories, and kept muttering about eating good things.
It was getting late, and Zhou Feng saw a small town below, so he flew down and prepared to find food for Lin Qiuyao.
The town is not very large, and the houses are all made of bluestone, the very rough kind. There is a dirt hill on the east and west sides of the town, and the hill is overgrown with flowers and trees. The town is located in a col between two mountains, with an elegant environment and fresh air.
In the middle of the town there is a north-south passage, through which horses and businessmen often pass, so on both sides of the passage there are a few small merchants, usually selling some daily necessities, and among them there is an inn, which is not very popular, but it can support the family to some extent.
Zhou Feng chose to land at the south end of the town with Lin Qiuyao on his back, this was to keep a low profile, but also for fear of alarming the people in the town.
Now the sun had set, leaving only a dark red on the western hills, and it was about to go dark.
After a day or two of contact, Lin Qiuyao became more dependent on Zhou Feng, tugging Zhou Feng's arm from time to time, sticking very close, and sometimes looking at this short brother with a smirk. And Zhou Feng took great care of Lin Qiuyao, taking care of her eating, drinking, washing, and cleaning up Lin Qiuyao.
Zhou Feng pulled Lin Qiuyao into the town, and from a distance, one looked like a white-clothed immortal, and the other looked like a beggar dressed in tatters. It's just that this fairy beauty's words and deeds are too silly, so people can see at a glance that she is not mentally normal. And the beggar beside the fairy, in addition to his shabby clothes, is very clean and handsome, like a rich child who has gone away from home.
Along the streets of the town, Zhou Feng pulled Lin Qiuyao into a small pancake shop. The small shop is very simple, with only a few shabby tables and chairs, and there are few people eating.
At the base of the north wall there is a wood stove made of stones, and on top of the stove is a stone slab made of bluestone, on which are two sheets of bread, as for the noodles are unknown, but it still smells good.
A chubby middle-aged woman was flipping the dough neatly, and when she saw Zhou Feng and the two coming in, she said with a grin: "How many pancakes do you want?"
Zhou Feng had touched his whole body before entering the store, and he was so pitiful that he was penniless, but in order to let Lin Qiuyao eat a meal of pasta, he planned to be cheeky and ask for a little.
Seeing the fragrant pancakes, Lin Qiuyao couldn't hold back her greed for a long time, and wanted to go up to grab the cakes to eat, she tried her best to break free a few times, but was firmly grasped by Zhou Feng.
"Short brother, there's something delicious there, I want to eat it. Lin Qiuyao looked at Zhou Feng stupidly, her eyes full of pleading, looking pitiful.
"Qiu Yao, the cake is still raw, I'll get it for you later. Zhou Feng smiled softly at Lin Qiuyao and motioned for her to be quiet.
Not to mention, after seeing Zhou Feng's eyes, Lin Qiuyao immediately quieted down and stopped shouting.
"Eldest sister, bring us a pancake, if there is porridge, please serve another bowl of it. Zhou Feng pulled Lin Qiuyao to sit down at a table, and then said to the fat woman.
"All the shops in our Liangshan town have a rule, pay first and then eat. The food you asked for was four coins, so give me the money first, and I will serve you food at once. The fat woman didn't even raise her eyelids, urging Zhou Feng to pay the money.
"Eldest sister, we don't have any money on us, can you be tolerant, and I will pay it back double in a few days." Zhou Feng smiled awkwardly, in order for Lin Qiuyao to have a meal, he could only beg cheekily.
"Yo! I want to come to eat my mother's white food again, I don't have any money, hurry up. The fat woman raised her head, cast a vicious gaze at Zhou Feng, and sent her to drive people away.
"Fuck off...... I don't care about you...... Hehe, alas, brother, I'm going to eat the fuck off. Lin Qiuyao looked at the burnt yellow dough and said happily.
"Hmph! One is in tatters, the other is stupid, and he dares to come out to eat and drink, and if he were grumpy, he would have broken your legs. The fat woman pursed her lips, looking down on Zhou Feng and the others.
Zhou Feng suppressed his anger, he suddenly thought that he still had a good thing on him, and he didn't know if he could spend it as money.
With a hand, Zhou Feng took out the piece of gold and stone that had been dug up from Giant Spirit City.
Syllable!
Zhou Feng slapped the golden stone on the table, of course he didn't use any force, otherwise the broken table would have fallen apart a long time ago.
Seeing the glittering gold and stone on the table, the fat woman's eyes were straight and greedy, and several people at the other tables also cast surprised looks.
"Golden ...... Gold!"
The crowd exclaimed.
"Eldest sister, I wonder if this stone can be exchanged for your cake?" Zhou Feng saw everyone's expressions and knew that this gold stone must be particularly valuable.
"Yo, Childe, you can buy dozens of little women's shops with the gold in your hands, you only need a loaf, and the little woman can ...... I can't afford to find it. The fat woman ran to Zhou Feng's side and said with a smile on her face.
"I have such stones, but you can bring the pancakes, and you don't have to look for the rest. Zhou Feng straightened his waist, showing the momentum of a noble child.
"Really...... Really?" the fat woman hurriedly took the golden stone in her hand and looked at it carefully a few more times, before she held the golden stone tightly in her hand in disbelief, and she flashed her eyes and said to Zhou Feng again.
"Eldest sister, hurry up and eat, I will never break my word. After Zhou Feng finished speaking, he still regretted a little in his heart, so much money was so cheap for this fat woman, but what he said was not remorseful, gritted his teeth, so be it.
