Chapter 42: Five Cents
A burst of shouting fell into his ears, and He Yi's body froze suddenly.
Following the sound, I saw a ragged man named Hanako walking behind the two of them along the riverbank, shaking his head. Hanako's hair is tangled and dirty, her body is also covered with dirt, and she is stepping on broken straw shoes, and most of her soles are worn out.
He Yi's state of mind that had just been soothed by the willow breeze suddenly made waves.
The stranger has a knife, and the sages bend their waists. In the old days, reading mountains and seas, the coming day was higher than the sky. Is this what he is talking about?
In this Ruyi Star, he is indeed capable of defeating all the Immortal Venerables to admit defeat! And the old mountain and sea realm is also a fact! The coming day is higher than the sky, is it a prophecy?
"Master, please stay!" he exclaimed, and his body moved to stand in front of Hanako.
This beggar is definitely not simple!
"What do you mean by what the master just said?" he asked bluntly.
Hanako looked a little crazy, shook his head from side to side, glanced at him with slanted eyes, and said with a strange smile: "Taller, higher, do you call me Hua Ye? Hua Ye, I'm not tall or short, I can'......t deserve it, I can't deserve it!"
He replied like this, but He Yi was even more convinced that this person must be an amazing strange person! And he was a strange person with the ability to predict the future, just like Baimei Guan Luomei Daochang!
The appearance of a crazy flower is just a mere appearance, and that kind of peerless strange person often likes to pretend to be sloppy! Small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city, this person is certainly not ordinary!
Knowing the truth in his heart, He Yi didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "Master, you know my roots, and you also know what I yearn for." I beg the master to give me advice, how can I find the person I love, how can I go to the supreme immortal realm?"
"What are you talking about?" Hanako laughed, poked his finger into his chest and said, "Your loved one is in your heart, ask me what this beggar is doing? You don't think you asked Hanako to hide your daughter-in-law, right? Oh, it's not good to slander people like this! You're a bad person! I'm leaving, I'm leaving!"
Hanako behaved strangely, her expression was changeable, and she was still smiling strangely for a while, but immediately her expression changed, she shook her hand and looked scared, and she was about to leave if she bypassed him.
He thought that he would only be able to find a master if he was in the Supreme Immortal Realm, but he didn't expect to meet him on this little wishful star!
Such a strange person, how could he leave like this! He stood in front of Huazi and knelt down on one knee directly!
One hand touched his chest and said, "Master, senior, please be sure to give me advice." I know she's in my heart, but I don't know where to find her! Can you tell me what I should do?"
"Why should I tell you?" Hanako jumped back in surprise. Under this jump, the already tattered straw sandals actually turned over directly, and the soles of the shoes were stepped on under the heels.
"What do you want? As long as this wishful star is available, even if the earth's crust is opened, I will definitely get it for you! Even if there is no wishful star, no matter how far away the starry sky is, I will go!"
"Are you stupid?" Hanako took another half step back, looked at him with disdain, and said, "You damaged the earth's crust, where do other people live?" Not...... Hua Ye, I'm hungry, go buy two big meat buns, one for five cents!
He Yi's joy was beyond words. He nodded and stood up, and when he was about to leave, he was worried that the master would suddenly leave, so he gave Lori a look.
Help me watch him!
As soon as his body moved, he had already rushed into the bustling city.
As soon as He Yi left, Lori, who understood what he meant, also stood up and walked over, standing in the position He Yi had just now, staring at Huazi with big eyes, without blinking.
Huazi squinted at her for a while, and suddenly exclaimed, "Why are you looking at me?
"Who are you?" asked Lori.
"I'm Hanako, my name is Hanako. Who are you?"
Lori didn't move, and replied, "I, Lori." What do you want to do?"
"Don't do anything!" Hanako screamed as a matter of course, and suddenly sighed again, and said, "I'm going to die today, come and talk to two special people, and leave a mind for people before I die." Alas, little doll, I don't know why, I like you again. But you're so cold, can you not get so close to me!"
Sighs, bad laughs, ghost screams. Another wave of face-changing performances like flipping books, Lori couldn't help frowning when she saw it.
"What the hell do you want to do!" she asked, a little angrily.
Hua Ziruo replied aggrievedly: "Why don't you do anything, just come to meet you two special people." Hmph, little doll, you can't fool others, I know Hua Ye...... ,What are you staring at!Angry?Angry!Hello, I like to see others angry, especially little dolls. If you don't let me say it, I'm going to say it! If you have the ability, you will kill me? Anyway, Hua Ye is also the last day's life, do you dare to kill me? Glare! What are you glaring at! If you have the ability, you will kill me! If Hua Ye dies, he will hate you for the rest of his life and throw you away immediately! Hehehe, no way? Hmph, isn't it just a stinky temper girl, and you are helpless in front of the smartest Hua Ye in the world. Believe it or not, I'll shout out all your secrets!"
Little Lori trembled with anger under his nonsense, staring at him with big eyes, and her face was full of angry expressions. She clenched her small fists, her undeveloped chest rose and fell, and she suddenly said, "Deliberately angry with me, you, damnable!"
Hanako smiled proudly: "I'm angry with you, what's the matter, what else can you do to Huaye?" hahaha......
............
said that after He Yi dodged into the downtown area, he immediately scattered the power of his mind to find the bun shop. However, he didn't dare to investigate unbridledly, and his mental perception honestly avoided that range.
Soon, he found several places that sold steamed buns.
Jumping to the nearest house in a flash, he asked anxiously, "Boss, how much is a bun?"
"Three cents for one, twenty dollars for seven. The chubby boss replied loudly.
"Not this one. He Yi frowned, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
It must be this price, otherwise I am afraid that it will be troublesome!
Back then, Luomei Dao Chang had a penny and a hexagram, and he didn't forget the things he asked about it, most of the strange people had strange tempers, and he couldn't miss such a rare opportunity no matter what!
The second bun shop.
"Boss, how much does a bun cost?"
"Oh, guest officer, I'm sorry, it's going to be dark soon, and the small shop on Chinese New Year's Eve is not doing business." ”
The third home.
"Boss, how much does a bun cost?"
"Three cents for one, twenty dollars for seven. The guest officer should be more ...... Oh my God, running so fast, I'm not dark, am I?"
Fourth.
"Boss, how much does a bun cost?"
"Four cents a penny, love or not. ”
"Hey, don't go! Come back! There are only four left, count you fifteen!"
Fifth, sixth, seventh......
There are a total of eight bun shops in Fu'an Town, and the first seven are not even five pennies!
the eighth, at the gate of the city on the north.
The sky is getting dark, and there are more and more pedestrians on the street, most of whom are ready to go to see the lantern tower flower boat.
He hurried to the north gate, and just before the bun shop closed its door, he reached out and pressed the big steamer!
The young girl who was selling buns was taken aback, looked up at him, and asked, "Is there something wrong with you?"
He Yi rolled his Adam's apple up and down, and asked worriedly, "Buns, how much is one?"
"Three pennies a piece, huh...... There are only two left, why don't I give them to you?" The girl saw that his clothes were shabby, and a trace of sympathy flashed in her eyes, so she replied softly and lifted the steamer.
"Thanks, no need. ”
When she reached out to take out the bun, He Yi had already walked away.
"Hey, two pennies, do you want to?" called the kind girl, who shook his head behind his back and walked away.
"What a strange person. Muttering, she packed up her things and hurried home before it was dark.
He Yi frowned and walked down the street, letting go and scanning the town of Fu'an over and over again, but he just didn't see any other places selling steamed buns! The restaurant had closed, and the noodle stalls had been taken away, and in addition to the inns, there were only those large shops with spacious and bright fronts that were still open at this time.
Where is the bun for five cents?
Hesitating on the street, pedestrians rubbing his shoulders from time to time, making him stagger, looking decadent.
I finally met a person with the general skills of Luomei Daochang, and he also promised to tell me the way forward!
Encountering such a situation, He Yi felt uncomfortable in his heart, and the feeling of being powerful and having nowhere to do made him so suffocated that he almost vomited blood!
It was getting dark, and just as he was losing his soul, two children of seven or eight years old suddenly chased after each other.
Turning the corner of the street, the current drooping kid didn't see anyone in front of him, accidentally bumped into it, and fell to the ground with a bang, and the two hot big meat buns in his hand rolled to the ground, stained with dust and mud.
He Yi didn't care much about it, but when he subconsciously looked down, the two big meat buns that had been bitten each made him shake all over, and he instantly came to his senses!
The little boy rubbed his elbow in pain, glared at him aggrieved and angry, and the older child who chased after him also had a good-looking expression on his face, and helped the fallen child up.
He Yi, who didn't want to think too much and couldn't resist the impulse in his heart, immediately asked: "Little brother, how much can you sell your buns?"
"What to sell, what to sell! This is what my sister made for my younger brother to eat, and you have soiled it, you have to pay for it!" The older child seemed to be the older brother of the little boy, and after helping his younger brother, he heard his question, and immediately shouted at him angrily.
"Okay, okay, I'll pay, I'll pay. Tell me first, how much does your bun cost, is it five cents?" He Yi hurriedly smiled and said uneasily.
The big boy rolled his eyes, secretly thinking that other people's buns are sold for three cents, even the black-hearted Zhao Dabao only sells for four cents, this person actually opened his mouth for five cents, and they can earn at least two cents for those two buns!
But this bun was made by my sister, so it's really unwilling to count it on him like this!
After thinking about it, the eldest boy held his younger brother with one hand and crossed his waist with the other and said, "Yes, one is five cents, two is ten cents." But you broke my brother, don't think about only giving ten cents, you have to pay for something else!"
"Okay, okay, you say, how do you want me to compensate?" He Yi was like a pardon, lest the buns fly away, he quickly picked it up, and then took out the ten pennies he had found when he bought a sugar gourd from his arms and handed it to the big boy.
"Hmm......" The child weighed the weight of the copper coin, his little face couldn't hide his scheming, he smiled and nodded, and then groaned again, thinking about how to tell him to pay for it.
At this moment, the little boy who fell suddenly pointed at He Yi's hand holding the bun and said, "Brother, I want this!"
Following his gaze, He Yi looked over with the big boy.
It turned out that the little boy was referring to the Sumeru ring on He Yi's finger!
There was nothing in this Sumeru ring, but after all, it was a gift from a close friend, so he kept it all the time, not wanting to give it to the disciples of the Wind Relief Sect for nothing. Now in such a situation, I can't care much about it.
"Yes, here you go!" he took off the ring and put it in the boy's hand.
With the sound of the wind, the people have disappeared in place.
