Text Chapter 25 [Golden Gourd and Silver Gourd]
"No money?"
The shopkeeper's face turned pale, "You dare to come to Haoxi Lou to buy wine without money?"
Xiao Xu said: "Do you have to have money to buy wine?"
The shopkeeper said: "If it is a wine robbery, then naturally there is no need for money." But if it's to buy alcohol, I can't think of a way to buy it without money. ”
Xiao Xu said: "The shopkeeper doesn't believe that I can buy wine?"
The shopkeeper said, "If you can really buy wine from that Hanako, you can ask me to give you this happy building." ”
Xiao Xuxing smiled and said, "I don't want your Haoxilou, I want another thing." ”
The shopkeeper said, "What is it?"
......
The building was full of dignitaries, all wearing gold and silver, brocade clothes and silk shoes.
But there is an extremely conspicuous figure in this group of people.
He stands out not because he is more luxuriously dressed, but because he is ragged and unkempt.
Just like the women in the Qinglou, the most conspicuous must be two kinds of people.
One is the most beautiful and the other is the ugliest.
This man's face was covered with sludge, and he couldn't tell whether he was beautiful or ugly.
But he must be extremely ugly in the building, because in many cases, poverty is the greatest ugliness.
And he must be the poorest man in the world, because he is a man named Hanako.
There are many things in the world that are not proportionate.
Flowers do not match cow dung.
The sword is also not commensurate with the villager.
For a person named Hanako, the most disproportionate thing is the table full of delicacies.
He was sitting at a square table in a corner, full of good dishes.
These dishes are the most expensive dishes in Haoxilou.
It's so expensive that you can just take out a plate and buy a house.
Hanako was enjoying the food at the table, and his food was a little crude, but it was also a relief to the diners around him.
Yes, after all, calling Hanako is just calling Hanako, even if you steal or rob some money to buy a table of good dishes, you will never learn the elegance of these Sven people.
But their eyes still can't take their eyes off the table.
However, what caught their eyes was not the "spoiled" dishes on the table, but the two gourds.
These two gourds are one gold and one silver, the orange and yellow of the gold are scorching, and the cold white of the silver is dazzling.
It is exquisitely carved and carved with four human figures. Take a closer look, it is a scene of eight immortals crossing the sea.
The Drunken Eight Immortals are all lifelike and vivid, and their hair and beards are clearly visible.
Even though these two gourds are made of pure gold and silver, the mere skill of this carver knows that they must be expensive, and they must be rare and rare things.
People looked at these two gourds, and then at their owner, the one named Hanako, who was eating Haisai, and his heart was full of mixed tastes, which was indescribable.
But in the eyes of everyone, a man in white walked over.
Xiao Xuxing sat down opposite Huazi.
And Hanako is still munching on a chicken leg with her head down.
He ate so obliviously that he didn't notice Xiao Xuxing's arrival at all.
When he finally finished chewing the chicken leg in his hand and wanted to pick up other dishes, he suddenly found Xiao Xuxing.
He was visibly startled and nearly fell out of his chair.
He stumbled and said, "You, you, why are you sitting here with me?"
"Are you here?" lowered his head to look at the chair under him, and smiled, "Did you bring this chair?"
Hanako said blankly: "Of course not." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Have you paid for it?"
Hanako said, "Of course not." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Since it's neither, then why can't I sit here?"
Hanako said, "Of course you can't sit here, because I've already ordered the food." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Yes, you have indeed ordered the dishes, and you have ordered a full table of dishes." That's why I didn't sit at the table, I sat on the chair. ”
Hanako said, "Then if I fill your chair with food, will you leave?"
Xiao Xu said: "If I fill your chair with the same dishes, will you also leave?"
"I ......"
asked Hanako to bow her head and think about it for a long time, frowning, and said stupidly: "Forget it, you still sit here......"
Then he hurriedly said, "But you are not allowed to eat my things." ”
Xiao Xu said: "I'm not here to eat, I just want to ask you a few questions." ”
Hanako said, "What do you want to ask?"
"What I want to ask is......" Xiao Xuxing stared at the two gourds on the table and said, "What's inside your gourd?"
Called Hanako and said, "Are you asking about the golden gourd or the silver gourd?"
Xiao Xu said: "Golden gourd." ”
Hanako said, "It's wine inside." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Where is the silver gourd?"
Called Hanako and said, "It's also wine." ”
Xiao Xu said: "What kind of wine is this?"
Called Hanako and said, "Are you asking about the golden gourd or the silver gourd?"
Xiao Xu said: "Golden gourd." ”
Called Hanako and said, "It's so happy." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Where is the silver gourd?"
Called Hanako and said, "It's also so happy." ”
Xiao Xuxing frowned and smiled lightly, "Little brother, why do you always ask me to ask a question twice?"
Hanako said, "Because the golden gourd is mine." ”
Xiao Xu said: "Where is the silver gourd?"
Hanako said, "It's mine too." ”
Xiao Xuxing was silent for a long time and said, "I understand." ”
Hanako said, "What do you understand?"
Xiao Xu said: "These two gourds are yours, not mine." ”
Called Hanako and said, "It seems that you really understand." ”
Xiao Xu said: "But I still hope you can do me a favor." ”
Hanako said, "If you want me to give you the wine, you don't have to speak." ”
Xiao Xuxing shook his head and said, "I hope you can borrow something from me." ”
Called Hanako, "What is it?"
Xiao Xu said: "Money." ”
Hanako was stunned, and he smiled.
Yes, that's a funny thing.
I'm afraid that I can laugh for three days and three nights when others hear it.
Hanako's laughter drew the hearts of the diners of Jeon Ho Ki Lou, who were puzzled by the laughter.
But as soon as they saw that the person who was laughing turned out to be a flower child, they all turned their heads away, and they only felt unlucky.
Yes, if you're a Hanako, even if you're laughing, it's disgusting.
Named Hanako said suddenly: "I have heard of borrowing money from Lord Yama, but I have never heard of borrowing money from Calling Hanako." ”
Xiao Xu said: "If you haven't heard of it before, you will see it with your own eyes today." ”
Hanako said, "But why should I lend you money?"
Xiao Xu Xingdu: "Because I guess you don't want to die." ”
"Of course I don't want to die...... Hanako was shocked, her body shrunk back, clinging to the back of her chair and trembling, "Are you going to kill me if I don't lend you money?"
Xiao Xu said: "Of course I won't do this kind of thing. ”
Hanako breathed a long sigh of relief and said tentatively, "If you're not going to kill me, then what do you mean?"
Xiao Xu said, "Do you know what you do?"
Called Hanako said: "I, of course I know, I'm a Hanako......"
Xiao Xu said: "That's right, you are not far from death." ”
Looking at the smiling expression on Xiao Xuxing's face, Hanako's heart went up and down, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva unconsciously, "Why is it that I am not far from death if I call Hanako?......"
Xiao Xuxing sighed, "Alas, if you were just an ordinary flower child, you would naturally not have a short life, but you are very unlucky......"
"How did I get out of luck?"
Hanako asked in a hurry, he was really a little anxious.
After all, in the face of death, there is nothing more important to worry about.
Xiao Xu said: "If you are an ordinary person called Huazi, you will eat and drink dew all your life, and naturally no one will trouble you." But look—"
His eyes swept over the table full of delicacies, and his expression was very helpless.
"Look at the good wine and good food on this table, if you let the gangsters know that you have so much money, do you think you can still live?"
Hanako looked at these extremely expensive dishes in a daze, suddenly threw the dishes and chopsticks in her hand to the ground, held her head in her hands and shouted, "I don't want money, I want to die...... I don't want money, I want my life......"
Xiao Xuxing stood up, stretched his arm across the square table, and slowly took Hanako's hands off his head.
He said: "Since this money is already yours, even if you don't want it, it's still yours." ”
Huazi stared at Xiao Xuxing's eyes and said, "But I want to die more......"
Xiao Xu Xing said: "Look at the people in this hall, which one is not both rich and fatal?"
Asked Hanako to follow his words and look around, indeed, this room full of guests are all brocade clothes and jade belts, Qiluo beads, and all of them are full of red light, not like a short-lived person at all.
Hanako said: "Yes, why can they have money and life, but I can't have life if I have money?! No, I also want money and life!"
Xiao Xuxing smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is the choice that a normal person should make." ”
But Hanako's face immediately turned bitter and said, "So, what should I do?"
Xiao Xu said: "It's very simple, if someone wants to kill someone for money, you must resist, and never give their money and life to them." ”
Called Hanako and said: "But I don't know martial arts, what if it's a big deal?"
Xiao Xu Xing said: "It doesn't matter, you can use knives and swords, sticks and guns, as long as you can make the other party hurt, they will never attack you easily." ”
"That's great!"
made Hanako happy eyebrows, and the gloom on her face gradually disappeared, but in a blink of an eye, she drooped her face again.
He muttered, "But I have no sword or sword, no club or spear......
Xiao Xuxing smiled: "What's so difficult about this. ”
Asked Hanako to say, "Will you help me?"
Xiao Xu said: "Of course I will help you, but before that, I want to ask you to help me first." ”
"Me?" Hanako said, pointing to her nose, "Can I help you?"
Xiao Xu said: "Yes, you can help me, of course you can help me, why don't you think you can help me?"
Called Hanako and said, "I...... I'm just a Hanako after all, so how can I help you?"
Xiao Xu said: "It's very simple, you can help me buy two pots of wine." ”
Called Hanako: "Is it that if I help you buy two pots of wine, you will help me save my money and life?"
Xiao Xu said: "Yes, I will definitely be able to help you keep it." ”
I promise you, I will buy any wine for you, I have money!"
