Chapter 231: The cold wind is blowing, and the drizzle is drizzling
The cold wind was blowing, and it was quite cool on people, Wu Ming stood on a mottled stone bridge, and in front of him was a small town in the south of the Yangtze River.
It is a village and town crisscrossed by waterways, with blue brick and gray tile houses lined up one after another, divided into large and small communities by several jade-like rivers.
The town is full of rivers as streets, streets and bridges are connected, houses are built along the river, boats and boats are like shuttles, pavilions are in between, bridges and chess cloths, and boards and alleys are vertical and horizontal.
A pot of sprinkles on the bow of the boat, holding a roll and looking at the sky,
The autumn wind ripples, and the drizzle enters the south of the Yangtze River.
A water town in the south of the Yangtze River.
"This is the White Snake World?"
Wu Ming looked at the peaceful scenery in front of him and couldn't help but admire it from the bottom of his heart.
Compared with the strange and demonic waves of the Liaozhai world, the White Snake World is a peaceful scene, just like a paradise.
"This is, of course, the White Snake World. Kaitian said to himself: "I changed your clothes a little to make it more suitable for the style here." ”
Wu Ming looked down at himself and found that his previous jacket and jeans had turned into a pair of scholarly robes, which was more appropriate to the peace in front of him.
"It seems that your earrings are not useless. ”
"I'm not an earring anymore, I'm your hat. The voice of Kaitian chatter sounded, and Wu Ming realized that he had an extra scholar's hat on his head.
"On the surface, I look like a hat, but I can also use it to make a sweat towel. ”
"Shut up, spoil the atmosphere. ”
Wu Ming stepped forward and walked into the water town in front of him.
There are not many pedestrians on the roads in the town, but they are all kind, and when they see Wu Ming, who is dressed as a scholar, they salute and smile in return.
Wu Ming returned the salute one by one and stopped an eldest lady: "Auntie, do you know a pharmacy called Baoantang?"
"Do you mean Dr. Xu's security hall, of course I know!"
The eldest lady was very enthusiastic: "You are going to see Dr. Xu, you are looking for the right person, there is no disease in this world that Dr. Xu can't cure!"
"Last year, the second boy next door to us had dysentery, vomiting and diarrhea for several days, and the person almost died.
Wu Ming frowned: "Auntie, my illness is more urgent, you should tell me where Dr. Xu is." ”
The eldest lady glanced at Wu Ming suspiciously: "You also have dysentery?" Then you have to hurry, Dr. Xu's security hall is in Zhenjiang Mansion ten miles to the west, after you leave the town, turn left, and walk along the road until you arrive. ”
"Thank you!"
Wu Ming bowed to the eldest lady and walked quickly towards the outside of the town.
"Do you really have dysentery?" said the scholar's hat again inappropriately.
"yes, and I haven't brought paper yet, so I'll have to use you then. Wu Ming said a word, and the hat of Kaitian was suddenly silent.
Walking out of the water town, Wu Ming glanced back and sighed with emotion.
Such a quiet and beautiful water town, in the future, you must buy a small building by the water as a holiday house.
It's a pity that Xiaoqian and Ying Ning can't come.
Mythological characters cannot enter other mythological worlds, and only Wu Ming, who has the power of Nuwa Stone, is a special case.
There is another special case, and that Ning Caichen.
Xu Xian mentioned before that Ning Caichen entered the White Snake World, and also disturbed the relationship between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen, making Xu Xian drunk and vomiting Wu Ming.
I don't know if Xu Xian's spare tire snatched Bai Suzhen back, Wu Ming thought in his heart, and sped up his pace along the road towards Zhenjiang Mansion.
It's getting late, and you must rush to Zhenjiang Mansion before dark, otherwise it will be difficult to find Xu Xian.
Wu Ming walked a short distance along the road, and saw an old man in cloth sitting under a crooked-necked tree on the side of the road in front of him, with a pair of flat burdens in front of him, and a steaming cauldron on one side of the flat shoulder.
"Selling glutinous rice balls~"
The old man fanned the pu fan, and greeted Wu Ming from afar: "Scholar, it's been a long journey, let's eat a bowl of rice balls." ”
Wu Ming bowed and smiled at the old man: "I'm in a hurry, no need, thank you." ”
Huh-
Suddenly, the light in Wu Ming's arms let out a sharp roar on its own, trembling slightly, as if it was about to break through the air.
The old man laughed: "Scholar, you have sword courage, it seems that you are not an ordinary person, but you are going to step into the red dust here, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to help yourself." ”
Wu Ming was taken aback, this old man could feel the sword pill on his body, was it a god or a monster?
The old man looked at Wu Ming, who was shocked, and smiled: "Don't be nervous, eat a bowl of rice balls to suppress the shock." ”
Wu Ming hesitated, and finally walked to the stall: "Old man, I don't have any money on me. ”
The old man laughed for a while: "It doesn't matter if you don't have money, it's the same if you exchange things for something, how about exchanging the two sword galls on your body for one rice ball for me?"
Wu Ming's expression changed: "That's not good, this is my self-defense!"
The old man looked at him and smiled silently, as if he had no intention of snatching it.
Wu Ming thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, I still have a precious thing, how about exchanging it for your rice balls?"
As he spoke, Wu Ming took out a box from his arms, which was the seal of the director of Shentong Logistics that Bai Wu had given him before.
"This seal can decide the fate of hundreds of people. Wu Ming said and handed the box forward: "Old man, I've given it to you." ”
The old man took the box with a smile, opened it and looked at it: "Shentong Logistics...... Good name. ”
"Let's get you a rice ball. ”
The old man picked up a bowl, picked up a white and bright rice ball from the pot, and handed it to Wu Ming with chopsticks: "Serve it hot." ”
Wu Ming took the dishes and chopsticks, glanced at the old man opposite, and then picked up the rice balls and put them in his mouth.
"It's hot!"
Wu Ming screamed, almost spit out the rice balls, and the old man opposite reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, take your time." ”
Wu Ming's body was shocked, and with this slap of the old man, he swallowed the whole rice ball, and swallowed the dates.
"I didn't eat any kind of stuffing, would you like another one?" Wu Ming looked at the old man.
The old man laughed for a while: "That seal can only be exchanged for one rice ball, and after today's business is done, I should also leave." ”
As he spoke, the old man stretched out his hand and put the flat shoulder on his shoulder, and strode away.
"It's a pity, if you hand over the sword gall to me, maybe you can be my apprentice, fate has not yet arrived......"
The old man's footsteps were extremely fast, and in a moment he was already far away, and there was a faint sound of poetry.
"I rode the white deer across the sea and crossed the green cow into the cave.
Xiaoji and other chatter, no one knows that I am a real immortal. ”
Wu Ming stood alone under the crooked neck tree, and suddenly felt that the rice balls in his stomach were getting hotter and hotter, like a scorching sun, almost burning all around him!
Wu Ming opened his mouth and shouted in shock, and his voice rushed out of his throat, but it turned into a mantra.
"The spirit of Haoran does not stand according to the form, does not live with strength, does not wait to survive and survive, and does not die with death. Therefore, in the sky is the stars, in the earth is the river prison, the ghost is the ghost, and the bright is the human!"
With the sound of a verbal decision, the burning heat in his abdomen instantly dissolved, merging into the limbs and bones of Wu Ming's body.
(The poem is taken from Xianle Yuxi, which is said to have been written by Lu Dongbin.) It is a tradition to eat rice balls in the White Snake, so let's have a bowl first. Haoran's Qi also appeared, and there was one more support skill. )
