Chapter 494 Limited Edition Roast Chicken..
After washing her hands, she just sat there, her eyes a little dull and her thoughts drifting away
At this moment, Zihan was in the same state as those freshly graduated college students, confused and helpless, not knowing what to do.
I looked up at the sky. The clouds were floating lightly in the wind. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. What does it feel like to start everything from scratch
She once thought that maybe if she could do it over again, she would face it calmly and calmly, but that was not actually the case.
Those who should be confused are still confused, and those who should be nervous are still nervous.
"Hey, young man, why don't you go? It's getting dark soon. There will be many robbers coming out on this road as soon as it gets dark. If you have nothing to do, go into the city quickly, otherwise the government will send you to the city if something happens later. It’s useless.” One wore a straw hat, his back was stooped, and he had a load on his shoulders. Carrying the load, the old man with wrinkles on his face said to Zihan, his face couldn't help but look suspicious. He had been fishing here for so long, and this was the first time he saw such a handsome young man. It was almost dark, and he looked like If you don't have the strength to restrain a chicken, it will be a bad thing if you are caught by a robber soon.
kindness? Zi Han looked back at the fisherman. He was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded, "Thank you, uncle. I understand. How can I get to the city?"
"Huh? This is your first time here. Well, look at the big road in front of you. Walk along this road until you reach the city gate at the end." The fisherman said enthusiastically. Still looking at Zi Han, he kept muttering, "Why are young men now as handsome as girls? This small body is not too big for an old man, I have thick thighs."
Zihan: "Thank you, uncle." Originally, she wanted to inquire about the situation here from the fisherman, but she saw that he seemed to be walking to the side path, so she stopped asking.
"No, no, I'll leave first, uncle." The uncle smiled and waved his hand, carrying two baskets of fish and walking towards a small fork in the road.
Zihan looked at the sky and saw that it wasn't too late. It should be around four or five o'clock in the afternoon. There was still some time before dark, so she was not in a hurry. She just walked slowly on the road to experience " "rural" feel.
The road was very spacious and could accommodate four carriages traveling side by side. She walked along the edge of the road, feeling secretly grateful in her heart. Although she was now a mortal, when she was in Dongxuan, she had been killed by Sunset Villa. Bishop Zhuang has studied Qinggong and internal strength. Although his research is not very profound, self-protection should be no problem
She feels a little sorry for those magic monks now. She is still a swordsman after all. Without her spiritual power, she still has moves. Those magic monks, without their spiritual power, have nothing. If they meet the thugs in the world, they probably won't be able to defeat them. Just think about it. Feeling sad for them.
Now she is extremely grateful for her identity as a swordsman
Zi Han was not the only one on the road at this moment. In fact, there were many carriages running, some fast and some slow. The slow carriages should be young gentlemen and ladies out for fun, because she could often hear the sound coming from inside the carriages. The chuckles were all the voices of young people.
As for those fast carriages, Zi Han wanted to throw dog shit at them, but damn, I didn’t see anyone here! She ran so damn fast that the dust on the ground flew into the sky, and she couldn't even see the road clearly!
Of course, the roads here are not as clean as those on earth. There is no cement or asphalt pavement. They are just the most primitive dirt. The grass is pulled out and the stones are shoveled to form a road. If the carriage goes slowly, it will be fine. The horse and driver seem to have gotten used to it, but Zihan hasn't gotten used to it yet
At this moment, I was choked by the dust so much that I couldn't even open my eyes. Sand got in, and the dust was inhaled in my mouth and nose. It was so tragic!
When the people on the carriage saw so much dust, they had already closed the window sill and continued chatting. No one noticed Zi Han, who was still holding two roast chickens.
Well, Zihan was still wondering if she could meet a kind person to give her a ride, but the people on the carriage didn't even look at her. It was so heartbreaking, and the facial recognition failed.
She is not that shameless, and of course she will not reach out to stop the carriage. This feeling of asking for others is very unpleasant.
And the city gate is right in front, so she just needs to walk a few more steps, it's no big deal.
So just leave. When Zihan arrived at the city gate, the moon was faintly visible
Zi Han's expression was a little gloomy at the moment. He had heard the fisherman say it was so relaxing before, thinking that the city gate was not far away, but it turned out that he was crazy! She estimated that it would be seven or eight miles away!
She used to think that seven or eight miles was like a centimeter, but now she feels that seven or eight miles is like the road to heaven, so far!
Fortunately, she felt something was wrong and accelerated her pace, otherwise she might still be walking leisurely on the road.
There were many soldiers guarding the city gate. Zi Han even counted them, and there were fifty of them. They stood neatly on both sides of the city gate, standing upright with spears in their hands. When he saw Zi Han alone, he still held the arms in his hands. With two tightly wrapped things, the two soldiers standing at the front stopped her directly. Their eyes were very serious. They stared at the roast chicken in Zihan's hands and asked: "What is this? Open it and let's check."
Without the support of his spiritual power, how could Zihan dare to be arrogant, not to mention that this was a routine matter, so he obediently opened the oil paper in his hand, revealing the fragrant roast chicken inside, and handed it to the soldier, "It's just two roast chickens, do you want to tear them up?" Open it for you to see?”
The two soldiers looked at each other, the smell of roasted chicken came to their noses, their lips squirmed for a while, and they each retreated to their original positions, letting Zi Han enter the city.
When the two soldiers who retreated saw Zi Han entering the city, they smashed their mouths and said, "That guy's roast chicken is so delicious. I don't know where I bought it. We must have a good meal after we finish work in the evening." ! I’m so greedy! ”
"Isn't it? It smells so good, and the man's face is also very good. He is so handsome. He has thin skin and tender flesh, unlike us who are exposed to the sun. With rough skin and thick flesh, no girl would like him. "Hey." A soldier joked when he saw that no one was entering the city at this moment. "Haha, I don't know what's wrong with girls nowadays. They only like those fair and tender boys. Those of us with masculine qualities are no longer popular. You see, at least 90% of the brothers in our army have not married, and all the women have been These young men have taken me away, and I don’t know when my life as a bachelor will end.” The soldier curled his lips, looking helpless.
"Stop talking, the boss is here. Bandits have been rampant recently, and we will be punished again when he sees us." A soldier whispered, his expression instantly becoming extremely serious.
After Zi Han entered the city, she looked at the dimly lit buildings and countless inns and teahouses around her. She touched the two roast chickens in her arms. Then she had no place to sleep tonight. Could she exchange for a roast chicken? One night stay?
"Get out, get out, what the hell, how can anyone trade a chicken for an inn?" The contemptuous voice of the young man came from behind. Zi Han walked out of the inn, the corners of his eyes twitching, that's really not good.
In the end, she felt that she, a great cultivator, was despised by ordinary people, and felt a little unhappy. She said to the boy: "My roast chicken is very expensive, limited edition, you can't afford it."
< br>
"Let's go, let's go. If you can't afford it, you can't afford it. You don't have money to stay in the inn and you still eat chicken. I don't know what the wrong link is." The boy continued to wave people away and directly closed the inn door with a "snap". ,
Zihan: "." Damn it, I'm bothering you by eating chicken!
Only at this moment did she deeply understand what it means to be bullied by a dog when the tiger falls in peace
There were a lot of people on the street at this moment, and the scene of Zi Han being kicked out was naturally seen by many people. Their eyes were focused on the roast chicken in Zi Han's arms, and their faces were a little suspicious. Some people even came up and asked Zi Han: " What kind of chicken is this? Is it really that expensive?”
Zi Han raised his eyebrows: "Of course, it's a limited edition. Do you want it? If you want it, I'll sell it to you for a thousand taels."
When the man heard Zi Han's words, he rolled his eyes and prepared to leave.
"Hey, don't leave, one hundred and two hundred taels." Zi Han directly pulled the man's sleeve.
The man was speechless. He looked at Zi Han and said helplessly: "Master, a roast chicken usually only costs dozens of copper coins. Even the one in a restaurant only costs two taels of silver. Now you ask for one thousand two hundred coins." I can give you two at the wholesale market. Besides, I didn’t say I wanted to buy chicken. You can keep it for yourself.” After that, the man took back his clothes and left.
Zi Han curled his lips, it seemed like he was going to sleep on the street tonight.
The curious people around them left instantly. What, this is not cheating, they can’t afford to eat a thousand taels of roast chicken.
Just like that, Zihan was wandering on the street with two roast chickens in her arms, checking to see if there was any place hiring people. She had to make money. Thinking of this made her feel so sad. Oh, I won't say it anymore. , I will shed tears if I talk too much
It's a pity that it was late at night and people were coming and going. When those people heard that Zihan was asking about work, they ignored her at all.
"Rumble" thunder came from the sky.
Only a few seconds after the thunder, it began to rain heavily, and most of the crowds in the originally crowded streets were instantly reduced, and everyone ran home.
Zi Han, on the other hand, ran along the edge of the roof with two roast chickens in her arms. She had no money to stay in an inn, so she couldn't live in a ruined temple!
Well, although she doesn’t know if there is a ruined temple here
She often walks by the river and her shoes don't get wet. Even though she tried her best to avoid the rain, her clothes still got wet, especially when her feet were in such a mess.
Fortunately, the rain did not last long and stopped soon. However, the crowd had been driven home. There were very few people on the street at this moment. Even the street stalls had closed. After all, it had rained heavily just now. It’s so big, who would eat at a street stall
Zi Han thought that it was unlikely that there was a ruined temple in the center of the city, so he chose an alley to go there.
