Chapter 143 The capital of the dynasty is called Tianyi, and the ancient road knows people (II)
The woman heard what the man said when he came over to buy my ancient mirror. Hearing that I would not sell the offer of eight hundred, she showed a look of surprise on her face, and looked at me curiously several times. Later, a few thugs came over, and she looked very disgusted, and retreated behind the small counter. A few thugs pestered me, and she was also probing her head and looking this way, her eyes were a little worried about me. When the scoundrels clasped their hands and screamed out, her face changed very curiously, and she smiled secretly. Although I sat there and looked careless, I noticed her every move.
After a few thugs left, the woman walked out of the shop. She walked up to me, looked at me a few times, and asked weakly, "Are you hungry for food?...... Would you like a bowl of noodles?"
I waved my hand, meaning that I had no money, and the little change I had just handed in. She didn't speak, turned around and went back to the shop, and it didn't take long to bring me a bowl of steaming noodle soup. She bent down and put the noodles in front of me, and said in a casual tone as much as she could, "Eat, I don't need your money, anyway, I made too much noodles today." ”
My Bigu Kung Fu is already quite profound, and the Wind Gentleman once punished me for not eating for three months, and now I haven't eaten for more than a week. But this bowl of noodles was placed in front of me, and I felt not hungry but slanderous! When I smelled the spicy smell, I had an appetite. Since I am sitting here like a flower child, there is no reason not to eat, I said thank you, pick up the bowl and pull out the chopsticks to eat. I've never eaten this kind of noodles before. The soup is particularly wide and sour, and the taste is also very fragrant. Maybe it's because I haven't eaten for a week, and I feel that this big bowl of spicy and delicious noodles tastes better than the jade pill.
I took two bites of three, and even after eating the soup and noodles, I was still sighing, no wonder -- the gentleman said that there is food and drink, and what kind of grain is there? It is so delicious! I ate so fast, and when I finished eating, the woman stood in front of me and had not walked away. I was a little embarrassed to stand up and give her back the empty bowl. Seeing me gobbling up a big bowl of noodles like this, she wanted to laugh a little and held back: "You're really hungry." I'll bring you another bowl. ”
Soon after she turned around and entered the store, she brought me another bowl of noodles. Since I had eaten the first bowl, I was not polite to take the second bowl, and then I stood on the side of the road and ate another bowl with the bottom facing the sky—what a shame! After eating this bowl, the woman sighed softly and offered to bring me another bowl. The taste of this noodle is very heavy, spicy and slightly sour, slightly numb, I really want to eat it after eating, as long as my stomach can hold it. ...... When I had eaten the fourth bowl, the girl's eyes had changed again—her eyes widened. It's not surprising that a person can eat it, but if it is too edible, it becomes a rare thing. This kind of big bowl is enough for ordinary people to eat one bowl. I actually ate four bowls, and that wasn't enough!
"Eat the noodles slowly, and don't hold on!" the girl finally whispered to me.
I put down the fourth empty bowl and smiled, "Thank you so much, I won't eat it." Actually, I'm not hungry. It's that the noodles you make are so delicious. ...... Did I disturb your business by sitting here all afternoon?"
The girl sneered, "Do you know that you are sitting at my door like this, who wants to enter the door?" Seeing that dinner is almost ordered, I am going to come out and set the table, so I want to invite you to a bowl of noodles - and then beat you away!"
It turns out that the snack bar in this place often places several tables outside the door, that is, on the sidewalk on the side of the road. It seems that I have indeed delayed the business of others. Quickly said sorry, ready to change places, can't always block the door of the snack bar. But the girl stopped me: "Come in with me if you want food." I have something for you. ”
I shook my head and said, "I'm already very grateful for the noodles, so I don't dare to ask for anything else." I'll change places and don't delay your business. ”
"If you want to come in, you will come in, and you will eat my four bowls of noodles and not listen to a word?" The girl was a little unhappy, and her tone was more impulsive when she spoke.
The temper of the women in the Central Plains area is indeed different, and if you want me to go in, I'll go in. This girl is an ordinary person, and there is no ambush in the snack bar. I've been scrutinizing this with my divine sense. Followed her into the small flavor store, she took out a set of men's clothes from under the counter and threw it to me, then pointed to the small kitchen behind and said, "You go to the back to change, see your clothes, the torn flesh is exposed!"
It turned out that she was going to give me clothes, and the more strange I became. She kept asking me to ask for food, and I teased her: "My set is called Hanako's work clothes, if I change it, how can I ask for food?"
"Don't lie to me, you're not called Hanako at all!" the girl was straightforward.
Did I have any "flaws"? I asked her curiously, "Oh, how did you see that?"
"I've been watching you all afternoon, how can you not take the initiative to ask for money? You sat in front of my door all afternoon, and you didn't ask me for money, nor did you ask for money from passers-by. And although your clothes are torn, your face and hands are not dirty at all...... Surely you don't want food, you are in trouble, are you? When everyone is in trouble, I can't help you with anything as a small shopkeeper, and then take away this set of clean clothes when you're full, and there's still fifty yuan here. ”
I haven't been a professional beggar, and it's really not like that. This girl is a kind person, give me food, clothes, and money. I took the clothes but didn't take her money, thanked her, and then asked, "Why are you helping me? Don't forget that I also disturbed your business all afternoon." ”
"You don't have to thank me, I want to thank you. I can see that you are not an ordinary person, although I don't know what happened just now, I also know that you taught those guys a lesson. ...... Those people are street ruffians in this area, and they often bully foreign people to make a living. They steal, blackmail, carry bags, molest women, do everything, and often come to harass me these days, you just helped me breathe. She said this, and her eyes were a little red.
I see. Hearing this, I secretly snapped the green mirror. There was a stream of heat swirling in the Mirror, and I felt that the people hadn't gone far, just a few streets away. As soon as I cast a spell, I heard screams from a few streets away. What's going on? Those people who had just been burned by the Qing Ying Mirror suddenly had their hands again
It was a sharp pain, and a puff of scorched green smoke came out of the flesh.
This spell is something I have just learned—as long as the person is within the reach of my divine consciousness after the Blue Mirror hurts people. Can cast a spell to continue attacking. If you deal with the masters, it may have no effect, or it can only be used to track, but it is enough to deal with such ruffians and hooligans! I didn't bother with those people just now, and I didn't take a heavy shot, why did my heart suddenly become ruthless again? Because I figured out one thing.
These people bully the weak, even a street beggar has to rob things, once given the opportunity, what bad things can't be done? This girl is a good person, and obviously has been molested by them, this kind of person is not much better than Fu Jie. The difference is that they don't have such great power and supernatural powers, and once they have them, I'm afraid it's worse than paying them. A gentleman does not punish the evil that is not evil. I can't kill them, but I can dethrone them.
The screaming girl in the distance also heard it, and looked in that direction with questioning eyes, and I smiled and said to her, "Don't look at them far away. You can rest assured. These people can't bully you in the future. Their hands will be able to eat and dress in the future, and they will be able to do it with people, but they will never be able to do it with people!" After saying that, I was also very happy in my heart, not because I punished the bad guys, but because I understood the wonderful use of the Qingying Mirror. I call this spell "chasing wounds."
The girl looked at me and opened her mouth wide, as if she was stunned by me for a long time, before she said, "You are really not an ordinary person. Have I met a god today? Who are you?"
"I'm just a passerby, and I practiced a few kung fu skills when I was a child, so you don't have to be too surprised. ...... Whose clothes belong to your husband?"
The girl's face turned a little red: "I haven't looked for my mother-in-law yet, this dress is my father's land." This snack bar was opened by my dad and me, and now that he's sick, I'm left alone. It is not easy to make a living in this city of Xi'an. But it's better than staying back home. ”
When we talked, the girl was not in a hurry to let me go, but pulled me to talk. Her name is Chen Yan, a native of Mizhi, Shaanxi. I came to Xi'an with my father more than a year ago to work. His father came out first, worked as a helper in several restaurants for two years, and learned some snack trades. Later, after saving some capital, he opened such a small shop, and called his daughter out to help in the small shop. His father has been sick recently, and he seems to be very sick, and he went to the hospital for examination, and it is said that the operation cost 20,000 yuan. The father and daughter of the Chen family don't have so much money, and their father has been dragging their feet, resisting and refusing to treat, and Chen Yan is left alone in the small shop these days. From her fragmentary words, I only heard so much, it seems that she has not found anyone to talk to for a long time, and she has spoken to me, a stranger.
When I saw Chen Yan, I may have remembered an ancient poem "Chang'an Waterside Dolly People", and after hearing about her origin, I remembered a common saying: "Aunt Mi Zhi Suidehan". Although she is not a charming appearance, her figure is also long, her skin is ruddy and delicate, and she is also the appearance of a small jasper. It's just that there is a little more exhaustion in this small restaurant. No wonder those ruffians come to the door to tease. I couldn't stay in this place any longer, or it might cause her trouble, and after a while of small talk, I got up and took my men's clothes in my hand. Chen Yan seemed a little reluctant to send me outside the door.
When I went out, there happened to be a silver-gray Citroen car, and there was a dirty puddle on the side of the road, and the car did not avoid it, and drove over directly, splashing half of my body with dirty water. Immediately after that, the proud car stepped on the brakes not far away, and a man about thirty years old with oily hair and pink face got out of the car with a bewitching woman. The man also looked at me and Chen Yan very impolitely, and said uncleanly: "A wild flower with a pile of rotten cow dung." After saying that, he put his arms around the woman and got into an alley. He said it in a small voice, but I could hear it clearly.
Leaving the door of the snack bar, I wanted to change to a corner that Chen Yan couldn't see, and continued to stay, and walked around the small building for a long time, and a person came to me. I am very familiar with this person, and he obviously knows me, so he walked up to me and clasped his fists and whispered: "Shi Zhenren, I have finally found you! Shi Zhenren has anything to do, please feel free to tell me. ”
I was slightly taken aback, and then recognized him, he was Tan Sanxuan's disciple Cang Feng, I had met outside Turpan City. He arrived in Xi'an so quickly? I thought about it and smiled slightly: "It turned out to be Cangfeng, yes, great! I'll chase after you to take this way, you see that I'm embarrassed now." Do you have a place to stay? I want to take a shower and change my clothes. ”
Du Cangfeng: "There is Haitian Valley, there is a temporary place to settle in Xi'an City, please come with me." ”
I looked at him for a while, and said, "You better come with me, I'll drive and you show the way." Let's go where you stay. ”
......
I drove a silver-gray Citroen car, Du Cangfeng sat in the passenger seat, pointing the way, and soon came to a hotel. This hotel is not big, not too small, barely a three-star standard, Cangfeng alone chartered me a room at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor. Before I got out of the car, I had already changed into clothes in the car, and it was a neat suit. Why didn't I wear the one Chen Yan gave me? Because I had a better fit in the back seat of the car. Apparently the owner had just picked it up from the dry cleaners, and it would have been nice to have another set of underwear, a shirt, and a pair of shoes!
I learned how to steal cars and drive cars in the training camp, and it just so happened that a guy who didn't have a long eye brought the car to me, wouldn't it be too polite if I didn't drive away! At that time, the car door lock was very easy to open, as long as you knew the principle and used the method of imperial objects to flip the lock, you could do it, and a master cultivator like me didn't even need to pry. Du Cangfeng didn't see the flaw, and thought that I drove this car. Am I breaking the precepts by doing this?
It can't be counted as me, it's not stealing, it's requisitioning! There is such a clause in our code of conduct, and when carrying out a mission, we can flexibly grasp the plan of action according to the situation, and we can also temporarily requisition civilian means of transportation, such as cars! Otherwise, what would I do if I still learn to steal cars? My current status is not only a cultivator, but also a special operations officer of the secret organs, and my tracking and handling is also part of the mission. I'll drive the car away first, deal with this sudden appearance of Du Cangfeng, and then call Director Gu and these people to deal with the aftermath.
