Riverside restaurant.
Bai Yujun was very generous and invited three old friends to dinner. He ordered West Lake vinegar fish, shrimps, and ham for himself and the snake demon boy. As for the vegetarians Huixian and Xiao Shitou, they could only eat rice, vegetables, and the famous local tofu dishes, plus dessert.
The food was really delicious. I was still satisfied and ordered a portion of salted duck and duck soup. I ate it to my heart's content.
Old Huixian was speechless while eating green vegetables and tofu.
Little Shitou's mouth watered.
Eating delicious food by yourself is actually not much fun. I always feel that something is missing. It is really comfortable to invite two or three friends to enjoy the delicious food together, and Bai Bai, who is over 800 years old, does not have many true friends.
The road of ups and downs in the rivers and lakes, the farther and farther you go, you will inevitably be lonely after all...
Eat and drink enough, pick out the long fish bones and pick your teeth.
"What? The Zhuquan Temple has collapsed again? Next time you build a white marble stone temple, if you can't, dig a hole in the back mountain and hang a plaque, so you don't have to work hard to make money in another hundred and eighty years."
Old Huixian was embarrassed. It was hard to tell the demon girl that there was a magical elixir growing in the beams of his house.
"It's so good. I haven't seen him for hundreds of years, but Donor Bai is still carefree and carefree, free and easy."
"Oh, it would be great if we could really be free and carefree. There are so many difficulties in the world. In fact, sometimes I envy the three of you more. It's rare to be truly free and at ease."
Looking back on the hundreds of years since we parted, I feel sad, as if I were a lifetime apart.
If you look at the three of them dressed like this, you will know that they must sleep under the tree roots in the bridge hole every day. Fortunately, the three of them are not mortals. They are monsters, half-humans and half-demon, true Buddhas and eminent monks. These three great guys work hard for a few pennies every day. But he lives better than many powerful people.
I was almost stopped by the waiter in the restaurant just now.
No one would be able to let three down-and-out people come in for a meal, and even if they had money, they wouldn't necessarily open the door to welcome them.
Fortunately, there was an unusual-looking beauty to treat them. The trio from Zhuquan Temple and Bai Yujun were a strange combination, and the restaurant was not easy to mess with.
"I'll help you arrange a place to stay. At least you'll have a place to shelter from the wind and rain."
"Good~"
After hundreds of years, the strange combination that once civilized the world reunited.
Jinshanyuan.
The three old monks always felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't see the problem. The down-and-out fellow monk was ordinary and not worthy of attention, but why was he inadvertently ignored?
I always find it difficult to focus on the poor old monk. I can't even see the two little boys clearly. It's weird...
…
Bai Yujun rented the shop next door.
As a result, a certain Bai professional shop opened an extra branch, and now they have a place to live and have a hot meal. The snake boy and Xiao Shitou are responsible for looking after the stalls outside. Lao Huixian learns how to make good oil-paper umbrellas, and also helps Bai Yu Jun sells paintings and gets a 50-50 share of the proceeds, and the strange combination of Zhuquan Temple finally starts doing real business.
Bai Yujun is in charge of painting. The paintings on the wall are top-notch works but also some ordinary masterpieces. He has to take care of customers from all wealth classes. He has gained a lot from his hundreds of years as a merchant.
A leisurely man saw two children looking after the store and thought they were easy to bully. He mocked the paper umbrella as a tattered one.
The snake demon boy was trembling all over and his hands were trembling.
"Is this your first time in the city for a country boy? The country is rustic, and the rags he sells are also rustic. I'll be scared to say a few words about you, hehe, you country boy~"
Ugh~! Draw your sword!
"I'll kill you!"
In an instant, Little Stone turned around and pounced skillfully, hugging the snake demon tightly and refusing to let go.
"Brother! Calm down... don't get angry..."
Xu Xian came to the shop and saw this scene next door. A little bald man hugged a long-haired boy tightly and refused to let go. The long-haired boy was holding a straight knife as if to chop someone. Behind him, an old monk was seriously chipping a bamboo stick.
The styles of the two stores were exactly the same, so I thought I was in the wrong place. I looked up at the wooden sign and confirmed that it was Miss Bai's cabin.
This scene also baffled the three of Jinshanyuan, and the story was completely out of control...
Bai Yujun tied up her long hair, covered her head with a white gauze scarf and went out to say hello.
"Mr. Xu, I'm going to deliver medicine again."
"Yes, I went to Liu Yuan's house to see if the patient had recovered. When I passed by Osmanthus Alley, I thought of Miss Bai~"
Bai Yujun glanced at Xu Xian with doubts on his face.
The snake demon boy suddenly ran over excitedly and sniffed up and down in front of Xu Xian. It seemed that there was some fragrant smell on him that attracted the snake demon. After smelling it, he licked his lips and exposed his little tiger teeth. It seemed that the boy wanted to eat Xu Xian. , in fact, there is something fishy.
Xu Xian smelled like a toad spirit and could easily attract the attention of the snake demon.
A Bai pondered.
It's not like the Western religion did it intentionally, but more like an accident. There are too many messy little monsters living in the human world. With so many animals, it is inevitable that a few will become spirits. The big people are too lazy to care about the little people who can't catch them, so they live in the cracks.
After thinking about it, I felt that I should save Xu Xian's life and use him to sneak into Jinshan Court.
"It just so happens that I also want to go out for a walk. Can I go with you?"
"Ah? Okay~ I heard that the lotus flowers are in full bloom outside the city. Miss Bai must like it very much~"
Xu Xian was very happy.
It's always great to have a beautiful woman walking with you, and I'm very happy. It's still a long way from here to Liu Yuanwai's mansion, so he deliberately took a detour to Osmanthus Alley to pass by.
Bai Yujun put down his painting brush and waved his hand to arrange a transparent circle to prevent the painting from being stolen.
"Let's go."
One person and one demon went out and walked along the stone road by the river.
Xu Xian felt that he could no longer walk. He straightened his back and was sweating profusely in order to show off his image. Many passers-by on the road would always show off their pride and show off when they looked at him. There was a touch of white around him, and he looked so beautiful and elegant, as if he didn't want to eat. Although the human fireworks are born in the mortal world, their demeanor is clear and ethereal, and all of them exude the aura of a fairy.
Indeed, Bai Yujun has always been out of tune with this world...
It is true that skin is as white as snow. No matter how white an ordinary person is, there will still be a little bit of skin color, but Bai Yujun's skin is as creamy as a perfectly carved work of art.
Every time I go out, there are many onlookers. I'm used to it, and I'm thinking about buying a bamboo hat and wearing it later.
I saw the jade pendant around Xu Xian's waist.
"Can you lend me the jade pendant? It doesn't look like an ordinary item. It might be valuable."
"sure."
Taking the jade pendant, Bai Yujun looked over it over and over. There was a small soul-disturbing magic circle inside. It was not very effective. It could only make ordinary people dream. He smiled slightly. This situation seemed familiar.
"Not long after I was born, a master came to my family. My father said he was an old god. He gave me a name and gave me gems. However, he still failed to bring good luck. The second elder passed away early..."
Sure enough, it took more than ten years of good intentions.
"Remember to rely on yourself from now on. Those big men in the sky will not care about the lives of the people. Unless there are too many deaths, the mountains that support you will fall, and everyone will leave. Just go and pay homage occasionally for peace of mind."
"It makes sense, why bother asking for a clay puppet when it's made of flesh and blood, haha~"
Go on your way neither fast nor slowly.
Pedestrians are busy, flowers and trees are in bloom on the roadside, awning boats come and go in the river between the houses, and you walk across the stone arch bridge and beside the stone well.
