Chapter 2: Copper Coins

Mu Xunxue was sleeping sweetly at this time, I don't know what kind of sweet dream she had, saliva was flowing from the corner of her mouth, she rolled to the side of the bed with a smile, and fell under the bed and woke up instantly.

After being stunned for a moment, Xiao Xunxue immediately got up from the ground vigilantly, and after looking around the layout of this simple room, she sat on the big bed she had just slept on.

"It's. . . Shouldn't I be in the Biansha Field?" After rubbing his eyes vigorously and realizing that he was not dreaming, his little hand touched his arms, and after a while, his face instantly turned pale.

She remembered that when she was on the battlefield, she had already held the domino tightly, could it be that she had been kidnapped? and the domino had been taken away by her kidnappers?

But it doesn't look like a kidnapping, could it be that someone rescued someone else's pastoral?

The more she thought about it, the more she doubted, the more she wanted to think, and after thinking for a while, she got up and pushed open the door, and she would never wait for an answer here, and in her mind, she should first know where she was.

The door was pushed open, and outside the door stood a fairy-faced woman in a green shirt, holding a bowl of steaming broth in her hand, and the tempting aroma of meat had poured into Xiao Xunxue's nose, making her stomach gurgle.

"Are you awake?

"Did you save me?" Xiao Xunxue stared at the bowl of broth intently, swallowed her saliva and said, "Is there only one bowl? What did you eat when I ate it?"

This Xiao Xunxue asked a series of questions, and the beautiful woman in front of her did not answer, but said indifferently: "Do you want to eat?"

"Eat"

Without chopsticks, after Xiao Xunxue drank the dry broth, she grabbed the piece of meat with her dirty little hands and filled it into her mouth, enjoying the feeling of the meat chewing in her mouth.

She had never eaten meat, because she was just a little beggar, but now the temptation of this bowl of meat was enough to be worth the domino that could be exchanged for six hundred copper coins, and in her mind, the domino would definitely not come back, and it would be better to change to a bowl of broth.

"Here you go" As soon as the beautiful woman's voice fell, she threw a domino on the table, and then took out some clothes from under the bed, and said: "There is water in the yard, you go and wash these clothes, it is still broth at night, so wash it with your heart"

"Sister Fairy, Xue'er will definitely complete the task" After seeing the dominoes, Xiao Xunxue's face was already full of smiles, and when she heard that there was still broth to eat, her mouth cracked open with laughter

Outside the courtyard was a wilderness, and it seemed that there was really only this small courtyard, but this woman seemed to be so well-dressed, why did she live in such a dilapidated house? Was it because she was very poor, and she liked to enjoy it?

Thinking about it like this, it still makes sense, the dirty little hands are now white, and the stains on the hands are all stained on the clothes in the wooden basin, admiring her little hands in the sunset, she is a little confused, it turns out that she has been a beggar for so long, and her hands can still be so delicate and white.

She squatted there staring at her hands in a daze, and after smelling the smell of meat coming from the room, she couldn't help but immediately come back to her senses, knead and rinse the clothes in the wooden basin vigorously.

The door was open, and the beautiful woman sitting at the table, who was already eating the broth in her bowl in a very elegant posture, had no need to worry about the little girl being hungry, because if she was really hungry, she would not have washed her clothes all afternoon.

And Mu Xunxue is also deeply aggrieved, how can these few pieces of torn clothes become more and more dirty as they are washed? This water is from a well, and it looks very clear, but what is the matter with these clothes?

After changing the water in the basin again, Mu Xunxue's eyes closed slightly, and a trace of blood-red light flashed from her right hand, and then a blood-red bead appeared on her wrist, which was pierced by a red silk thread on her wrist.

The lack of beads is her secret, and she can summon them from her body with her mind, but every time she uses this bead, she feels very hungry, as if the bead needs to eat too.

After this bead was seen by the beautiful woman in the house, a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "You come over for dinner, and your clothes don't need to be washed."

"Really?" Like a hungry tiger pounced on food, Mu Xunxue rushed into the house and gulped down the broth, and the beads on her hands had disappeared on her wrists on their own.

"What's your name?"

"Mu Xunxue"

"Very nice name" The beautiful woman's lips and teeth moved slightly, and she pushed half of her bowl of broth in front of her, and said, "Then what is the matter with the bead in your hand?"

"Beads?" A trace of doubt flashed in Mu Xunxue's eyes, and she tilted her head and asked, "What beads did Sister Fairy say?" I didn't take your beads, really."

"Don't force it" The beautiful woman in green shirt got up and walked out, and after a slight pause, she said: "You are resting tonight, you should be from Mingyue City, right? I'll send you back tomorrow."

"Send me back, thank you, Sister Fairy" This Mu Xunxue heard that this woman was going to send her back, and she was even happier than she heard that she let herself drink broth, because when she arrived in the city, she had six hundred copper coins, and with the money, she could go to the inn and order a table of good food, and then ask for a pot of good wine

She hadn't drunk before, but whenever she passed by the inn, she saw that the people inside were around a large table of good dishes, drinking and serving vegetables at the same time, such a meal was simply Mu Xunxue's ideal, but she would be able to achieve it tomorrow.

She didn't sleep, although it was almost midnight, but she still didn't feel sleepy, she lay on the bed holding the dominoes tightly, and her mind was already fantasizing about what the wine tasted like, in her mind it should be fragrant and sweet, just like sugar water, and it was much better than sugar water.

Just when she was fantasizing with dark circles under her eyes, there was a pleasant sound of the piano in her ears, which seemed to be imprinted in her heart, and she seemed to see a fairy flying in front of her eyes, which was very real and beautiful.

It was not the fairy who was flying, but the clothes, and when she got up, she pushed open a crack in the door, and saw the scene outside the door, the beautiful woman who had saved herself was playing the piano in the yard, and she was like a real fairy at this time.

The clothes that had not been washed by herself were also flying in the air like fairies at this time, and just as she peeked into her attention, a crimson feather-like thing actually floated towards her from the clothes.

"Bump"

The door was pierced by the red feather, Mu Xunxue was also lying on the bed at this time, if she hadn't come back to her senses in time and dodged with the ability that this bead brought to herself, maybe the feather would have pierced her heart, but fortunately it only cut her arm, although it hurt, but there was no worry about life.

Who was this woman? That was her biggest question, and why was she so beautiful and indescribably beautiful that she couldn't bear to look at it herself a few more times? And to hear her piano sounded as if it were the same person as the one she heard on the battlefield.

Isn't it that the living corpse didn't attack herself, but was obliterated by the sound of her piano?Feeling the power of that feather just now, this kind of thought is not impossible, if this is really the case, then the woman in front of him is absolutely extraordinary.

Could it be that she is the same as herself? She also has such beads that can bring extraordinary powers? Otherwise, why would she be interested in her own beads if she is as indifferent as her? Thinking of this, she already had a result in her heart.

This woman doesn't love money, she doesn't look like a bad person, she must be a high-ranking person in the Pastoral Pavilion, and it may be someone from the empire who is responsible for burying the fallen soldiers on her side after learning that there are living corpses on the battlefield.

The more I think about it, the more it makes sense, and the more it makes sense, the more outrageous it feels, but for a person who can wash clothes with the sound of the piano, if she can really exist in the world, then it is not surprising that she is a princess of the empire.

She had fallen asleep, and she had always slept well, because when she was hungry, if she didn't have anything to eat, then she would definitely fall asleep, and now that she was full, she could still feel the pain in her arm, so she fell asleep quickly.

"Red Bead Spirit Master?" The beautiful woman didn't know when she appeared, she was standing in front of Mu Xunxue at this time, took out a small white bottle from her arms, poured the white medicinal powder inside on Mu Xunxue's injured arm, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye in a moment.

"Such a talent, if there is a spirit master to help, you can make a difference" A trace of melancholy flashed in the eyes of this beautiful woman, and she sighed lightly: "But spending an ordinary life is not a gift?"

Mingyue City, the border city of Jiuli Country, although it is not as prosperous as other cities, but it is much more prosperous than the Nanliu City in the south of the border, because the city of the south of the border is located in the south of the border Nanchang, hundreds of miles south, located at a disadvantage, and there are desert Gobi everywhere, which is why this judgment and cessation of the war.

Mu Xunxue was standing at the door of the pastoral pavilion in the city at this time, the dominoes in her hand were already sweating, she walked slowly into the pastoral pavilion, and an expressionless yellow-faced uncle on the counter was sitting there lazily, as if he hadn't woken up.

"Smack"

The delicate and white little hand slapped a domino on the counter above his head, Mu Xunxue's voice was immature but the tone was very sophisticated: "Six hundred coppers, one cannot be missing, this girl has always believed in your credibility"

"Girl?" After the man on the counter looked at the dominoes, he stretched out his head to look at the little girl who was shorter than the counter, and snorted softly: "It turned out to be you, a little beggar, where did you pick up this domino?"

"Picked it up?" Mu Xunxue frowned, pretending to be angry and said: "This is the achievement of this girl's hard work, if she hadn't been rescued by a fairy sister who played the piano, she would have died at the hands of a living corpse, you actually said that this girl was picked up?"

"The fairy who plays the piano? The girls who play the piano are all rich ladies, how can they go to the battlefield?" The man looked at the little girl in front of him with disdain, and snorted softly: "I didn't expect you to be big, but the cowhide is not small, whether you pick it up or not, the money will not be missing you."

I saw that the man took out three taels of silver from his arms, slapped it on the table, and sighed softly: "Take it and spend it."

"No" Mu Xunxue shook her head like a rattle, as if she had been wronged, and said: "You said that you would not give me less, I want six hundred, what do you count as giving me three? I don't want silver, I want copper coins"

"You..." The man's face changed instantly, and he knew that this little girl was deliberately embarrassing herself, but how could there be no copper coins in the entire pastoral pavilion? He opened the table and took out six copper coins, one hanging was a hundred, and now they were placed on the table, and sneered: "Wild children who have never seen money, take it quickly."

“..”

After retrieving the six copper coins, Mu Xunxue made a grimace and said: "Do you know that you are hiding in the Shepherd Pavilion, do you dare to go to the battlefield to burn the corpses by yourself?" I'm afraid that seeing those living corpses will scare you to death, you are the one who has no guts, and you are the wild child."

The man's face turned red, and he got up to teach this wild child who had no tutor, but before he could start chasing, this Mu Xunxue had already run away, and the man punched the counter, and said very aggrievedly: "Fast speed, isn't it fast to run?"

At the door of an inn, Mu Xunxue pointed to the six copper coins hanging around her neck, and said with a smile: "Sister Fairy, you invited me to eat broth so many times, Xue'er is rich today, I have a treat, let's go to the inn to eat"
