Chapter 2 Bargaining Entanglement
Bidding farewell to the woodcutter, Wang Lie walked forward along the road, fortunately it was not very far from Dali City, and he had just eaten a stomach of peaches, so he was not hungry for the time being, so he strode towards Dali City.
At dusk, Wang Lie, who came all the way, finally came to Dali City, and asked a few people one after another on the way, Wang Lie has been able to communicate with the local aborigines normally with his excellent language talent, and fortunately he had traveled to Yunnan and lived in Dali for a period of time, or he really couldn't understand the local language for a short time, and there were very few people who could speak official language at this time.
Wang Lie entered Dali City from the south gate, the city was densely populated, the bluestone tiles on the street, and the city was prosperous. Wang Lie had a feeling of returning to the world, this day and night, from the bottom of the valley to the city, although there was no danger, it also made Wang Lie feel thrilled. The scenery in front of him is no longer the familiar city, but the antique buildings, the people on the street are wearing ancient costumes, and even the cries of selling are exuding ancient sounds, Wang Lie finally believes that he has traveled to ancient times, and it seems to be the world of Tianlong Babu.
"Uncle, where is the inn?" Wang Lie walked around the street, remembering that he needed to find a place to settle down first, and grabbed an uncle who was passing by and asked.
"Go straight along the road, turn left and cross two intersections, and the largest inn in Dali City is there. The uncle stared at Wang Lie for a long time before replying.
As soon as Wang Lie entered the city, he turned his head and exploded, his pajamas were quite strange in this era, and now he was used to being looked at a few times.
"Thank you, uncle. "Wang Lie hugged his fists as a salute, there is nothing wrong with this in the martial arts world.
According to the uncle's instructions, Wang Lie walked to the door of the inn, although it was the best inn in Dali City, it was just a small double-storey building, and just about to enter the door, Wang Lie suddenly remembered that he had no money on him.
"Your grandfather, I used to watch martial arts dramas, those heroes were so chic, why is it so troublesome when I come to Lao Tzu. Wang Lie was annoyed. Touch the whole body, and the red sandalwood bracelet on the wrist can be exchanged for some money.
"Other people have gold fingers in crossing, and I have to post it upside down in this crossing, which is really speechless. Wang Lie was helpless, and pulled someone to ask for the location of the pawnshop, planning to use the bracelet as an emergency.
When the bracelet was dropped, Wang Lie checked into the inn known as the best in Dali City, and after a full meal in the hall, Wang Lie returned to his room.
"The price here is really expensive, the rosewood bracelet worth tens of thousands is only fifteen taels of silver, according to the charge of this inn, plus food, it is enough for me to survive for two months, who said that life in ancient times was good, I will spit on your face!" Weighing a small piece of silver in his hand, Wang Lie thought helplessly.
Poor and white, and without martial arts, Wang Lie didn't know what to do for a while. After sitting quietly for a while, Wang Lie slapped the table, "Lao Tzu is a doctor of physics, you can't starve to death, since you're here, even if you can't be a hero, you have to learn kung fu, grandma's, Ling Bo Microwave Lao Tzu has been envious for a long time." β
Wang Lie stood up and paced back and forth, thinking about his plans in the new world, during which Xiao Er came in and lit the candles, and after thinking for a long time, Wang Lie sat down again.
"According to the news I heard today, this should be the world of Tianlong Babu Undoubtedly, Dali Duan's does have a yang finger, and the immeasurable jade wall is not mentioned in the condor, it shouldn't be, Duan's martial arts are not passed on to outsiders, and the six-vein divine sword can't be learned, if only I could worship the Xiaoyao faction, since the immeasurable jade wall has not yet been inhabited, it means that Wuyazi has not yet lived in seclusion, then he should be in the Tianshan Mountains or the Sea of Stars, it is not clearly stated in the original book, then I will look for both places, the Vulture Palace is not such a big project as a year or two to build, and now it should also be the territory of the Xiaoyao factionγ Go and try it, how to say that I am also a talented and intelligent. Wang Lie thought narcissistically, and habitually grabbed the mirror on the side and looked at it.
"I'll wipe it, what's going on here!" Wang Lie was startled, and even the bronze mirror fell on the table. What appeared in the mirror turned out to be a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, with picturesque eyebrows, and only vaguely the original appearance, "I was originally a handsome guy, but this ten years younger is so handsome that I am scum." Wang Lie touched his face, is this the benefit of crossing? It's better to give my brother a hundred and ten years of skill, he is already handsome enough, and if he is a little more handsome, he can be eaten. Wang Lie complained that the crossing had happened, and he wouldn't be surprised if there was anything.
"The Loose faction only accepts handsome guys, so it should be no problem to look like this. Wang Lie thought to himself, "But you have to make a good plan, in addition to the free faction, you can only choose Shaolin, there is no Wudang faction in the Tianlong Babu, and there is a more powerful martial arts is Murong Fu's Douzhuan Xingxing, which is also the same as the six-vein divine sword, only in his own family, although Shaolin is relatively easy to enter, I don't want to be a monk yet, and I don't know the Year of the Monkey when I enter Shaolin and want to learn the Yijin Sutra." is still the first choice for the free faction, and the Northern Shengong and Xiao Wuxiang Gong can be earned by learning the same. β
"The problem now is how to get to Tianshan, and there are no planes in Tiannanhai, so I have to find a way to get some money. Also, since you are in Dali, you have to find a way to see a yang finger. Wang Lie thought carefully for a long time, and after walking for a day, he was tired to death, so he fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Wang Lie woke up early, stretched his waist, slipped to the street after breakfast in the inn, yesterday was just a casual stroll, today there is time, Wang Lie plans to first take a good trip to the city of Dali thousands of years ago, at this time the city of Dali is not the city of Dali that is flooded with tourism in later generations, and all of them are full of simple ancient flavor. Wang Lie traveled around and watched it with relish. Unconsciously, Wang Lie walked to the front of a big road, at the end of which stood countless yellow-tiled palaces, and the sun shone on the glazed tiles, which was brilliant and dazzling. Wang Lie continued to move forward, came to a memorial arch in front of the archway, saw the archway written on the four big golden characters: "Holy Dao Guangci", behind the archway stood a pair of guards, heart said: "This should be the Dali Palace, although Dali is a small country, the emperor is not casually seen, I will go to find the Zhennan Palace." β
Wang Lie left the palace, walked east and west, from time to time to find pedestrians and hawkers to chat a few words, not long to find a big mansion, two big flags in front of the house, the flags are embroidered with the words "Zhennan" and "Baoguo", and the forehead is written "Zhennan Wangfu". The door was full of pro-guards. Wang Lie is self-aware, and it is not interesting to ask for a meeting without coming to the door. Now he doesn't have any friendship with the Duan family, and the king of Zhennan is not interested in him.
Walking down in a circle, it was already early afternoon, Wang Lie found a stall to fill in something casually, and began to implement his plan to make a fortune. He found a grocery store, bought a few pieces of white paper and a wooden box, evenly torn them into hundreds of small paper balls, crumpled each paper ball into a ball and put it in the wooden box, and borrowed pen and ink from the boss, only drew a pig's head on one of the paper balls, crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into his sleeve. Then he carried the wooden box to the open lot on the street.
Asked the juggling team next to him to borrow a gong, Wang Lie took a deep breath, and then struck the gong in his hand loudly.
Qiang Qiang Qiang ......
"Don't miss it when you pass by, the windfall is just waiting for you to take it, and you will have a chance to win the jackpot with two coins of silver, everyone has an equal opportunity, and the prize is not bulli......ed."
Qiang Qiang Qiang ......
In the bustling city, the deafening sound of gongs soon attracted pedestrians around, and the inner and outer three floors surrounded a large circle.
People stood on tiptoe, exchanged ears, and talked a lot.
"What kind of gimmick? Windfall, really fake?"
"It is said that what is called 'lottery', two coins of silver are drawn once, and if you win, you will win a prize......"
"Oh, isn't that a sloppy, but the lottery is quite a novelty......
The onlookers talked for a long time, but after all, no one stepped forward to eat the crab first.
The passer-by who was very gambling couldn't hold back, and asked loudly: "Hey, the offspring who struck the gong, you said that you won the jackpot in the lottery, but you can tell it in detail, if the prize is not worth two dollars, won't we spend this money unjustly?"
"This uncle, if he wins, he will win a grand prize of twenty taels of silver. Wang Lie took out his remaining ten taels of silver and shook it in front of everyone.
Everyone was in an uproar, this award is not small, Wang Lie doesn't know that Dali can't help but gamble, there is no way, he has no other way to raise money for the time being, he can only make this one, anyway, he is going to slip away.
After all the calculations, people feel that spending two dollars of silver is not a loss.
After a brief silence, the crowd of onlookers gradually boiled.
"Wu Na Housheng, give you silver, I'll draw a ......"
"I'll do it too!"
β............β
β............β
Looking at countless hands handing over the weighed two coins of silver, countless hands reaching into the box to find a paper ball, and of course, countless sighs and unwilling ...... Wang Lie smiled in his heart, and after a while, Wang Lie returned to the inn with dozens of taels of silver in his arms, leaving a sighing crowd.
