"How much does two bowls of sour plum soup cost?" In a market square in Luling City, a young man was holding a pastry and biting it. In the other hand, he was carrying numerous scattered snacks. He stuffed the pastry into his mouth.
, walked to a sour plum soup stall.
Both of them had changed their appearance, but even though Luo Mi had painted himself with a yellowish complexion and an ordinary appearance, it still attracted many people's attention, and he still couldn't suppress his aloof aura.
On the contrary, it was Xu Wuzhou, who looked like a young man in the market, and dealt with various vendors skillfully.
"Ten copper coins. Do you want to drink it here, or take it away in an oily paper cup?" the shopkeeper asked.
"Seven copper coins, I want two cups."
"Your honor requires nine copper coins."
"Seven!"
"That's really not possible, sir! There aren't many left. I want to go home early, so this is one less. Otherwise, none of them will be missing."
"The place I came over just now was selling six copper coins. I wasn't thirsty at the time. Now I've added one for you."
"Sir, this is the only one I sell on this street, and I always sell it at this price."
"Then you have to be careful. A new store opened over there today, and you will have competitors starting today. Forget it, you can sell the seven copper coins or not, or I can leave."
After saying that, Xu Wuzhou turned around and left.
"Yes! Eight copper coins. Don't bargain too hard, sir. I will lose money on seven copper coins."
"Forget it, eight is eight. I'm just thirsty and I don't care about a couple of coppers, otherwise I'll just endure it."
After saying that, Xu Wuzhou threw eight copper coins to the store and said, "Pack it up, let's drink while walking."
"Hello!"
The store owner packed it up for Xu Wuzhou quickly, and Xu Wuzhou casually took a cup and handed it to Luo Mi: "Try it, it's sour, sweet, and delicious!"
Luo Mi glanced at Xu Wuzhou. She had never been exposed to these market snacks before. As a Xuannv, she had always been aloof. Yaochi gave her all delicacies from mountains and seas as well as natural and earthly treasures.
Xu Wuzhou took him to visit this small town this time. He went wherever the excitement was. Many things seemed strange to her, but Xu Wuzhou was very interested in buying them and trying them.
She resisted at first, but after Xu Wuzhou tried to stuff the snack into her mouth several times, she took a bite to avoid it.
She found that it really had a unique flavor.
So when Xu Wuzhou handed her sour plum soup, she took a sip. It tasted very good and she liked it very much.
However, her temperament dictates that even if the drink is delicious, she will only taste it briefly. She will not be like Xu Wuzhou, who doesn't care about image at all, stuffing pastry skewers into her mouth, taking big mouthfuls, and there are crumbs of food on her mouth. How can she be like that?
He is a high-ranking Taoist master.
Luo Mi looked at Xu Wuzhou's temperament, which looked very similar to those in the market.
"Would you like to crack some melon seeds while walking around?" Xu Wuzhou raised his hand, indicating to Luo Mi that he could go get some melon seeds from the paper bag and crack them.
Naturally, Luo Mi couldn't do such a thing. She was afraid that Xu Wuzhou would stuff her again, so she changed the subject and said, "You cut off two of the ten copper coins?"
Luo Mi really couldn't understand what Xu Wuzhou's status was, and what price he could negotiate with these ordinary people. He could buy this street just by leaking some information. But it happened that he could bargain with the store for one or two coppers.
After a few minutes, Luo Mi was really convinced.
"You don't understand! It's boring to go shopping in a busy city without bargaining. This means that the shops on this street are very honest. Otherwise, I would feel like I was losing money if I didn't cut the price in half."
"..." Luo Mi was speechless as she listened to Xu Wuzhou's words. Thinking of Xu Wuzhou's battle of wits and courage to bargain for the price along the way, she felt that it was really relaxing and interesting.
Just as she was thinking about this, she felt her arm being dragged by Xu Wuzhou. It turned out that it was because of her loss of concentration that someone was walking fast in the busy city and almost bumped into her.
She avoided it, but the sour plum soup in her hand inevitably spilled out and onto a slightly obese woman.
The woman suddenly screamed and glared at Luo Mi: "You don't have eyes. You just throw everything at me."
Luo Mi was scolded and stayed where she was. As a Xuannv, had she ever faced such a situation? If she were a great practitioner, she would just hit him. But, this is an ordinary person.
Just when she was at a loss and couldn't think of a way to deal with it, Xu Wuzhou stepped forward and said, "Auntie, you were walking so fast that you almost bumped into us and didn't care about you. You still have the nerve to scold us."
"Who are you calling aunt?" The woman was even more furious, pointing at Xu Wuzhou's nose and spitting out the fragrance, "Believe it or not, I will tear your mouth apart!"
"Holy crap! You really can't believe my bad temper. Aunt, if you want to be rude, don't even look at who I am. I'm a tiger in Luling, so I'm afraid of you?"
"You are so bad, if you give Luling a tiger, then I will be the Lord of Luling City. Little bastard, who are you calling yourself me in front of? Your hair is not even long, how dare you shout in front of me."
When Luo Mi saw Xu Wuzhou standing up, she felt relieved. If Xu Wuzhou could handle it, there would be no problem! Who can compare with Xu Wuzhou in terms of words?
"I just..."
"Just what? If you scream loudly, your hair will grow. When it grows, I will grab it and help you pull it out."
"I……"
"Shut up, mother. You look like a dog, that is, a silver gun with a wax gun head."
Xu Wuzhou was furious: "Who are you calling the silver gun and the wax gun head?"
"Still not convinced? If not, just take off your pants and show it to me to prove it. If you don't dare, it might just be a toothpick. Bah, it's embarrassing."
"..."
Luo Mi was beside him, dumbfounded as he listened to these filthy words. But Xu Wuzhou felt astonished. Ma De, this woman is so powerful in battle, and she speaks hot words, so I feel like she can't make any noise.
"Stop talking? If you don't want me to find out your toothpick and embarrass you, just get out of here!"
"Wait!" Xu Wuzhou put down his harsh words, dragged Luo Mi and fled.
Luo Mi was being dragged by Xu Wuzhou, and she could still hear the woman cursing behind her.
Looking at the embarrassed Xu Wuzhou, Luo Mi suddenly burst into laughter.
Is this Xu Wuzhou, who is quarreling with scholars? He was scolded by an ordinary woman and ran away like this? If Immortal Emperor Mo Dao and others knew about this, what would they think?
Luo Mi was dragged to a teahouse by Xu Wuzhou, and saw Xu Wuzhou throwing out a few gold ingots. Luo Mi was wondering what Xu Wuzhou was doing.
But I heard Xu Wuzhou shouting to the waiter: "Help me find all the women who are quarreling the most here."
Seeing the waiter leaving with the gold ingots, Luo Mi was confused: "What are you doing?"
"Hire someone! I can still suffer this loss! I have to hire someone to scold me and go back."
Luo Mi looked at the angry Xu Wuzhou, and she once again refreshed her understanding of Xu Wuzhou.
What kind of brain do you have to think of paying someone to scold someone?
Soon, the waiter in the shop invited someone. Then, with Xu Wuzhou's money, the three women found the woman who had the face and started to quarrel.
Xu Wuzhou's anger dissipated at this time, he sat in the teahouse and watched the curses on the street.
Luo Mi looked at the triumphant Xu Wuzhou and listened to the noise below.
She suddenly felt that the world became warm and lively, and she thought of a word: the smoke and fire of the world.
The mood in my heart seems to be relaxed at this moment, and the world becomes more flexible.
