There's something wrong with this assassin

Chapter 261 The Conversation Between the Demon Girl and the Heroine

The morning rain in Luocheng is light and the dust is light, and the guest houses are green and willows are new.

After a summer shower, the entire city of Los Angeles was cleansed, and the air was filled with a fresh smell. The sun was slowly rising from the east, and its golden light sprinkled the earth.

Xiaohun Inn, the broken wall, now several masons in gray clothes are moving bricks and slowly repairing it, because it needs to be repaired carefully. Work slowly and carefully.

The Xiaohun Inn couldn't be opened in the first place, because now there is no cook or handyman, this business can't be done in the first place.

While the Xiaohun Inn was closed, the grocery store opposite the Xiaohun Inn opened its doors and started business.

This is a small shop, but it is clean and tidy. The so-called grocery store means that as long as people buy things, they will sell them here.

In fact, it is equivalent to talking about the convenience store of later generations.

So needles and threads, melons, fruits and vegetables, snacks and melon seeds, soy sauce, vinegar and soy sauce, the small shop was filled with all kinds of goods, which attracted a lot of customers.

But unlike ordinary grocery stores, these customers are numerous, but they are not ordinary aunts, but bad guys crowding at the door, just want to buy a bottle of vinegar, a bottle of soy sauce, or a bag of salt and a can of sunflower oil.

No other, just because the proprietress is so pretty.

Ningxia stands at the counter of the grocery store, with a calm and professional smile. She belongs to the woman who can smile with eight teeth. Her frown and smile are impeccable, her voice is soft, her eyes are shallow, she quotes, sells goods, collects money, checks out, No matter how many people come, she is methodical and unhurried.

Behind her stood a black-haired girl in plain white clothes. Shang Jiuge pursed her lips and helped Ningxia make soy sauce and vinegar. These jobs were a bit overkill for Shang Jiuge, but the girl didn't mind.

When it was close to noon, the guests gradually dispersed. Shang Jiuge sat on the bench in the grocery store and looked at his hands quietly.

The girl's hands were still white and delicate, even the calluses from holding the sword were not left, but Shang Jiuge's eyes were as black as lacquer, but there was a trace of confusion.

Usually, this girl has never been confused.

Ningxia's injury has recovered a bit, and she has gradually become familiar with the current state.

From being unable to walk at the beginning to being able to carry out some routine daily activities now, Shang Jiuge is like a toddler, re-adapting to this slowed down world.

Now, it was He Ping's request to come to the grocery store to help.

Because this way of taking goods and pouring soy sauce in a more precise way can better train Shang Jiuge's precise movements and let her practice further.

Of course—the girl holding the sword will not be able to hold it in the short term, and there is no way around it.

In fact, Shang Jiuge himself doesn't mind being such a small worker at all, especially if he can learn things.

"Ningxia." Shang Jiuge looked up at the woman from the Western Regions sitting opposite him.

The two of them were sitting in this somewhat narrow grocery store, surrounded by miscellaneous things like daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, fruit, steamed buns, needles, threads and brains.

Ning Xia hummed.

"Why are you here?" Shang Jiuge asked.

Ning Xia smiled: "I thought you wouldn't ask such a question."

"Why?" Shang Jiuge asked back.

"Because you don't look like someone who asks such questions." Ning Xia said softly.

In fact, her back injury has not healed, but she can still do some basic movements. The two patients are now working side by side, and they can't help but feel a little sympathetic.

After getting along with each other for the past two days, Ningxia actually feels quite good about Shang Jiuge.

After all, Brother Shang is such a straightforward person.

"It's just that I don't get curious easily." Shang Jiuge shook his head and said, "Now, I'm a little curious about you."

"The less curiosity in this world, the better." Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and said, "It doesn't matter why I stayed here, the important thing is that I stayed."

"That's right." Shang Jiuge nodded: "So what are your plans for the future?"

"I can't believe you asked this question." Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and said helplessly.

Because Ningxia knew a little about Shang Jiuge, this girl had never been such a meticulous person.

"Should we talk a little bit?" Shang Jiuge asked with a smile: "I don't want to sit here in a daze now."

"Actually, I'm pretty good at being in a daze, but sometimes, I don't mind talking to people."

"And I think you're interesting."

Shang Jiuge has always been able to speak out his reasons confidently, and now there are only two people sitting here, so of course they can only gossip, even if they are all Huashan women who may be well-known in the Jianghu, the demon girl.

But now that they are sitting in the grocery store and selling things, it's okay to gossip with each other.

"I don't have any plans." Ning Xia shook his head and said, "Actually, I didn't think I would survive."

"Fang Bie gave me a chance to survive."

"Then I'll live and see."

"That's all." The witch from the Western Regions said with a little melancholy.

"It's really not like what you can say." Shang Jiuge shook his head.

The girl's lips were slightly blood-colored, but her eyes were pitch-black. Even though Shang Jiuge couldn't hold the sword at all, she was still as sharp as a sword.

"I chose to stay here because I felt it would help me."

Shang Jiuge said quietly like this.

"Help?" Ningxia looked at Shang Jiuge and asked.

"Help." Shang Jiuge nodded and said, "Isn't He Ping very strong?"

"Although my senior brother is also very strong, He Ping's strength is completely different from his."

"I feel that He Ping and I are on the same road, and now it seems that we are indeed on the same road."

"In this case, I can learn a stronger sword and become stronger."

Ningxia listened to Shang Jiuge's quiet words, and looked at the Huashan little aunt sitting in the grocery store: "What's the point of becoming stronger?"

"When you become stronger, you can see farther scenery." Shang Jiuge said quietly: "It allows more people to hear your voice, and you can do what you want to do."

"So I need to be stronger and I want to be stronger."

"It really doesn't sound like what a woman said." Ning Xia said with a smile.

"Is there a difference?" Shang Jiuge looked at Ningxia and said.

"Of course there are." Ning Xia said, "There are only two women among the top ten in Jianghu."

"Then there will be three in the future." Shang Jiuge said calmly: "I always firmly believe that martial arts are good or bad, and there is no difference between men and women."

Ningxia smiled: "After all, you are Huashan Shangjiuge."

"It has nothing to do with this." Shang Jiuge shook his head and said.

At this time, someone came to the counter of the grocery store and tapped the counter lightly with his hand.

"I heard that Shang Jiuge is here?"

Ningxia and Shang Jiuge looked up at the person coming at the same time.
