Chapter 17 Extenuating Circumstances
"Money for clothes!"
Gu Yuan's question made the old man feel incredible.
Gu Yuan spread his hands and said, "What money didn't I give for my clothes?"
The old man pointed at Erxi sharply, and laughed angrily: "You didn't take the clothes, he ...... in his arms"
"Huh?!"
The old man rubbed his eyes vigorously, and Erxi's arms were empty, and there were still clothes in his shop.
The storage magic weapon was not uncommon in the eyes of cultivators, but it was still rare to see it in such a poor and remote town, and the old man knew that Gu Yuan was cheating, but he couldn't understand how he did it.
"Okay, you two want food, are you bullying me today?" The old man pulled out the feather duster and slapped Gu Yuan's face fiercely, but Gu Yuan grabbed it, and the old man pulled it out several times, and the feather duster seemed to have taken root in Gu Yuan's hands.
The old man looked at Gu Yuan, who was smiling at him, and finally felt scared, and said inwardly, "You...... I'll sue Lord Zhencheng and have your good fruit to eat!"
Zhencheng is the official who manages Baimu Town, and there is a county guard above, and then there is the state pastor of the lord of a city.
"Lao Tzu can even kill monks in the out-of-body period, which onion is counted as a small town? Which clove of garlic?"
Gu Yuan kicked the old man out with one kick, and then, grabbing the old man's face, rushed to the wall together.
There was a loud bang, and the whole shop shook violently, and the old man lost consciousness instantly, and his seven orifices were bleeding into the wall. Gu Yuan slowly let go of his bloodstained hand, wiped it clean on the old man's body, grabbed the teapot on the counter, pulled out the lid, and poured a pot of hot water on the old man's face.
The old man immediately came to his senses, screaming in pain, and his face and neck were burned with dense blisters, all of which were the size of soybeans.
Gu Yuan stretched out his hand and pinched the old man's cheek, and pulled his mouth to both sides, "Come, shopkeeper, laugh." ”
The old man's heart welled up with great fear, his face was colorless, but he had to force a smile, "Hehe, hehe......"
"It's fucking ugly. Gu Yuan slapped the old man's face again and again, and asked with a smile, "Do you still want to report to the official?"
The old man was like a mourner, "I don't want to, I don't want to." ”
Erxi said on the side, "It doesn't matter if the report is the official, just to see if you die quickly or my brother-in-law dies quickly." ”
This sentence is a bit unpleasant, Gu Yuan still gave Erxi a thumbs up, and won Gu Yuan's praise, Erxi's head was raised, like a villain.
"Let's go. Gu Yuan rubbed Erxi's head and strode out on his toes.
It took a lot of effort for the old man to come out of the wall, and the merchants who heard the sound around him dared to show their heads, and a young man who looked like a young man asked tentatively, "Uncle Li, do you want to ...... Do you want to report to the police?"
"No, no, no!" the old man was frightened, "never!"
......
"Brother-in-law, how did you do that just now?" On the street, Erxi's mood changed again, and he jumped and walked beside Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan didn't know why, "Which hand?"
"That's it......" Erxi gestured, "That's it...... That is, as soon as the hand is put on the clothes, the clothes are gone, and the hand is gone. ”
"You mean this?" Gu Yuan shook his hand, and a blue shirt appeared in his hand out of thin air.
"Yes, yes. Erxi danced, "That's it, how did you do it?"
Taking the clothes back to the storage ring, Gu Yuan pulled out the ring on his middle finger, handed it to Erxi, and said, "Yao, take it and take a look." ”
Erxi took it and looked at it over and over again, put it in his mouth and bit it, and he didn't find out what was strange about the ring, and said in confusion: "Is this thing that puts away all the clothes?"
Gu Yuan took out the ring and put it on his hand again, and said, "This thing is a magic weapon, only cultivators can use it, of course you can't see the reason when you look at it like this." ”
Erxi let out an "oh", feeling very new about the practice, but when he thought about practicing meditation, he felt bored again. After a long time, Erxi seemed to think of something, and asked a little strangely: "Since you have such a convenient magic weapon, why do you still have to carry wild boars around?"
Gu Yuan's face froze, Erxi still asked, he was a little embarrassed to say the reason for this, seeing that Erxi's eyes were full of curiosity, he stumbled and said, "I...... I forgot ......."
Gu Yuan really forgot, it only took a few days for him to get the storage ring, and it was understandable that he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Forgot?" Erxi felt incredulous, "This kind of thing can also be forgotten?"
Gu Yuan coughed dryly and quickened his pace.
Erxi hurriedly caught up, with his back to the avenue, his face to Gu Yuan, with a look of hatred that iron is not made of steel, and said, "Brother-in-law, you are too stupid." ”
Gu Yuan's chest rose and fell, a flick of his finger landed on Erxi's forehead, and a red mark suddenly surfaced, looking at Erxi who covered his head and shouted pain, Gu Yuan said angrily: "Still talking?"
Erxi had tears in his eyes, and he refused to give in, "Brother-in-law, you are too careful, and you are angry with children, and you have no interest." ”
"You kid......"
Gu Yuan was about to fight, but Erxi turned around first and ran away with a smile. When Gu Yuan caught up, he saw Erxi stopped outside an ink studio, which sold pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and hung a few calligraphy and paintings.
"Brother-in-law. Erxi grinned and grabbed Gu Yuan's arm, and Gu Yuan didn't break free after a few draws.
"Lend me a broken crystal. Erxi looked at Gu Yuan expectantly.
"What do you want to do?"
Erxi pointed to Mo Zhai and said, "Buy something for my dad." ”
Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows, threw a broken crystal to Erxi, and said, "Go ahead." ”
This time, Erxi was not troubled, and it may have something to do with the poor shopkeeper. There are very few people in the town who have the conditions to study, and it is a matter of time before they sell calligraphy and paintings in this kind of place, and they starve to death.
Erxi entered the door and felt unprecedented enthusiasm, and even when he went out, he was sent out by the young shopkeeper.
Everything was done, and the two of them were about to leave the town, but after walking dozens of steps, Gu Yuan stopped, looked at Erxi with a puzzled face, and said, "If it wasn't for the tailor's shop, none of your money would have been spent on yourself, why didn't you have what you want?"
Erxi shook his head, nodded again, and then shook his head again.
Gu Yuan read Erxi's expression, "Afraid of spending money?"
Erxi pursed his lips and didn't speak, lowered his head and walked out of the town, "Brother-in-law, let's go quickly." ”
Gu Yuan didn't move, stood in front of a wooden stick full of sugar gourds, and said to Erxi who turned his face, "Do you want to eat?"
Gu Yuan clearly saw that Erxi's eyes were glowing.
"Master has vision, my sugar gourd ......"
Gu Yuan waved his hand to interrupt the hawker's chatter and took out two broken crystals, "I want it." ”
On the way home, Erxi's cheeks were stuffed and bulging, and the blood marks drawn out by the feather duster were even more obvious.
Gu Yuan took his eyes off Erxi's face and asked about the previous incident, "Why did you stop me when I entered the tailor's shop?"
Erxi was stunned, and said: "The last time I caused trouble outside, my father knelt down and begged for help, and I didn't want to make trouble for him again." ”
