The short old man in gray clothes had a pair of fierce inverted triangular eyes, and he kept looking at Suche up and down.
There are quite a few people in the practice who are not involved in the Dao and who practice sorcery. To say that they seek wealth and honor in the world is considered a compliment. In the final analysis, it is just drinking, sex and wealth.
This short old man seems to be one of them.
It seems that it can be regarded as a link in the business chain of the coffin shop boss Song.
"Have you seen me?"
Suche ignored the short old man and just asked the middle-aged man on the other side.
Seeing a few doubts flash across his face, I knew in my heart that he was in a hurry to find a way out for his wife that day, so naturally he didn't see the scene where he was torturing Qingqiu.
"ah?"
The middle-aged man was naturally confused.
"Humph, you worked for Lao Song, but you never asked me?"
Suche looked like he was raising an army to accuse him.
The old man in gray clothes frowned, looked at Su Che and Qingqiu carefully, and then at the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Dude, it looks strange."
The old man in gray grinned: "Which way to make a fortune?"
"You have been digging in the soil of Guobei, Shanyin for so long, and you don't know my husband?"
Qingqiu next to him laughed a few times.
"This one is Uncle Liu Yidao, the famous ghost slayer in the world." The little fox took out the nickname of the world and didn't know where it came from, "Haven't you heard of it?"
"Although Guizhan's name is loud, it can't scare me. Besides, one mouth and two skins. Even if you say you are the emperor, it's up to you."
The old man in gray turned his eyes and said: "Dushan Lord's rules are that no one can use force in Duju City. If you want to show off your useless sword skills, you'd better find another place."
"Whoever wants to chop you, with your little ability, are you worthy of letting my husband use the knife?"
Qingqiu took out something from his sleeve and threw it directly at the old man in gray.
"Of course I have a good business with you."
The old man in gray clothes held it in his hand, and found something warm and moist within his reach. Looking at it carefully, he saw a piece of rustic jade that had fallen from something.
Cloud and thunder patterns ran through the whole body. The old man in gray felt the broken patterns on Yu's body, and it looked like he was old.
"Gold comes from Lishui, jade comes from Kungang." Qingqiu said: "Do you recognize this piece of Kungang jade?"
"It comes out of the soil, it's quite fresh. Uncle Liu also wants to raise the coffin and decorate it?"
"I asked you to find a place. If I find it, I will give you a hundred taels of gold."
Qingqiu looked at the old man in gray: "Whether it's successful or not, I'll wait for your reply at the Old Town God's Temple in Shanyin County tomorrow."
The old man in gray clothes glanced at Qingqiu and weighed the remaining jade in his hand.
"Okay, Shanyin County will get back to you tomorrow."
Qingqiu turned his head and looked at Su Che pretendingly.
"Ms. sir, I've greeted them, let's go now."
Suche didn't know what kind of medicine the fox gourd was selling, so he nodded along with the meaning of her words.
This should be the end of the drama for the fox to bring him here.
"Let's go."
Su Che said hello, Qingqiu held an umbrella and left the market together.
The two of them walked along the street towards the outside of the city.
"I don't know how long this situation can last."
After leaving this small independent city, Suche sighed.
The survival of this independent city in this place is ultimately based on the great demon named Dushan Jun.
The old lion's body is about to be born, and people from all walks of life will gather here sooner or later. What will it be like to stand alone in the city at that time?
Naturally it goes without saying.
"who cares?"
The little fox looked at Suche: "You have become like this, but you still care about them?"
"Um?"
"Aren't you concerned about your cultivation and your health? I haven't even joined the family yet, but I don't want to become an outcast."
"Actually, someone said something to me when I was going out."
"Is one sentence a panacea? It's useless."
"The elder of my family asked someone to bring out a sentence from the palace. He said that the snake hides five steps away, kills it at the right moment, activates the spirit with the sword, and waits for good news."
"The snake hides five steps. I think the first meaning is that there is danger hidden around me. Now it seems that there is a saying in "Xuanzhongji" that the mysterious snake eats the deer, which also implies that the danger should come from the White Deer Cave. "
"Killing at an opportunity should be to persuade me to find an opportunity to eliminate the danger around me. And using the sword to enlighten the spirit means that I should start with the way of the sword." Su Che pondered: "Waiting for good news should mean that he is behind Nature will arrange it.”
The Su family of Duling was very thin, and Su Che didn't think that the one in the palace would just give up on him.
Since the other party has already made arrangements, all he has to do is wait.
"Huh, pretending to be a ghost."
Qingqiu said something unhappily.
"You are just pretending to be a ghost. What are you planning to do by provoking that man surnamed Song?"
"Don't worry, we are engaged now. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is still yours. You will benefit from it."
"Okay, then I'll ask the elders of the family, three matchmakers and six pins, to marry you."
"Oh, is it so sudden?"
"Is this sudden? You are also from a famous family in the sea. Marrying you won't be an insult to our Du Lingsu family. I just don't know how much your dowry will be. My husband is very short of money."
"The custom here in our family is that the dowry is very generous, and you don't need any betrothal gifts. In our East China Sea, only foxes who can't marry need betrothal gifts."
"Wouldn't that make it even more impossible to get married?"
"We are foxes, and foxes don't take these things seriously."
The little fox laughed and laughed.
Suche agreed with her.
The scholar in green shirt and the fox demon holding a paper umbrella just strolled among the rising foothills of Xuanshan Mountain.
The cool sunshine of the morning sun shines through the layers of pine forest on the grass blades where the dew has not yet dispersed, making the sweetness in the air seem thicker and thicker.
Suche thought this little fox was pretty good.
Um,
good.
As we continue to move forward, the smoke and fire in the world becomes more and more intense.
Su Che could finally see Shanyin County in the distance through the mountains.
Unexpectedly, Duju City is so close to Shanyin.
A thought flashed across his mind. It had only been half a day's walking. Based on the two people's walking strength, this Duju City could be considered geographically adjacent to Shanyin County.
"Okay, let's stop here."
The little fox grinned.
"The slave family can only send your husband here. It is indeed not good for the dignified county captain to take a woman around the county."
"What did you say?"
Suche wanted to joke with her a little more.
"I'm afraid Shanyin County will be the top priority next. Experts from all walks of life will gather here, so we'd better be careful."
The little fox blinked: "If Uncle Liu wants to find me, just go to Lao Song's coffin shop."
Oh, remember that Liu Yidao?
"Aren't you afraid that the real Liu Yidao will come to Shanyin?"
"Liu Yidao is already here," the little fox chuckled: "When the slave family first arrived in Jiangnan, they traveled around the world using Liu Yidao's name."
Or maybe we have a pre-existing connection, and we are both born with matryoshka dolls.
