Du Rong always thought that after Chen Xiao came to the capital, he would start his career soon.Unexpectedly, for the next few days, Chen Xiao would wake up every day to go out to visit the scenery, and then taste the famous local snacks and delicacies.

I don't know who he inquired with, but in a few days, he walked all over the capital and went to every corner.Du Rong has been to the capital several times before, and never knew that there are so many places worth seeing in this city.Especially the various delicacies made Du Rong's sunken cheeks plump up again.

This morning, when Chen Ling left the room, she said to Du Rong who was already waiting outside the door: "Uncle Rong, tell the shop to call a short-distance carriage later."

"Okay, proprietor." Du Rong was already used to it, every day Chen Xiao would ask for a carriage to travel.Ordinary carriages mean that they will move within the capital today, and if it is a short-distance carriage, it means that they are going to the suburbs near the capital.

Du Rong is often unsmiling in his daily work, and he seems to separate official affairs from personal affairs.Although the two had a friendship of taking a bath together, at that time, they seemed to have a lot of relationship, but after that, they didn't see how close Du Rong showed.This reassured Chen Xiao a lot. He was really afraid that Du Rong would suddenly switch to the model of an enthusiastic elder. He was more used to getting along with each other not far or near.

After having breakfast in the lobby of the inn, the two of them boarded the carriage and headed towards a market on the outskirts of the capital.Chen Xiao heard from the inn guy who came to deliver hot water every day that the market here is very special.It gathers the special products of various counties and cities in Dai State. Fruits and livestock that are not seen in ordinary times can be seen here.Because there are many outsiders, the food stalls here also have their own characteristics.In short, although there are no beautiful scenery and exquisite and magnificent buildings here, it is a good place to learn about the customs of various places.

Of course, Chen Ling would never admit it, he went there for the food.

It took an hour in a carriage to arrive at this suburban market.The carriage covered the whole journey. Now that Chen Xiao and Du Rong were going shopping in the market, the coachman found a place to store the carriage, and he found a tea shop to rest.

It is said to be a market, but in fact it is next to a small town.The market extends from one direction of the town, forming a bustling and lively place.

Goods from all over the world gathered together, and different accents intermingled together, weaving into an extraordinarily lively scene.Because it also has the function of cargo transfer, there are a lot of people in this market.Fortunately, Du Rong was by Chen Xiao's side, so he was not squeezed into a meatloaf.

Thieves are unavoidable where there is a mixture of fish and dragons. After Du Rong fended off three waves of people, Chen Xiao finally found a product that interested him.

At this time, they left the dried fruit area and were in the section for daily groceries.It's not just caravans that often travel here, there are occasionally a few single-handed people with some good goods.These people are weak and have no sales outlets. They couldn't find a place to take over the goods in the capital, and they were unwilling to sell them cheaply, so they came to this market to try their luck and see if there was anyone who knew the goods.

The stall in front of me is like this. The boss came all the way with a few horses of fine and expensive fabrics.As a result, the silk and satin shop has a fixed purchase channel, and the purchase price is much cheaper than his selling price, and the price is suppressed so hard that it can't even return the capital.Seeing that these goods were about to fall into his hands, the corner of the boss's mouth got angry with anxiety.

Seeing that Chen Xiao was interested in his goods, the boss hurried up to solicit them: "Young master, you really have a good eye. These pieces of brocade I brought from the south are the most expensive brocades." The boss didn't touch it with his hands. Touching the cloth, he just rubbed his hands together and let Chen Xiao see for himself.Having experienced the professional service of a shopping guide in a specialty store in the previous life, this boss's dull introduction is simply crude.It can be seen that he is not good at words, so it is no wonder that he can only squat here and wait for someone to come to his door.

Fortunately, Chen Xiao was really interested in the brocade weaving clouds in front of him.Weaving brocade is woven with silk, gold and silver threads, and feathers of rare birds.There are large cloud patterns all over the satin surface, with bright colors and bright luster.It is said that before the previous life, it was tribute satin, and the dragon robe was made of such brocade.The output of this kind of brocade was very low in the previous life, because it could only be made by hand with a large wooden loom, and it was very rare in the market.

The horses in front of him are all plain satin, with colors of dark blue, frost, blue and white, brown, begonia red, water red, silver red, and lilac.Chen Xiao pointed to the frosty one and asked, "How much is this horse?"

The boss replied cautiously: "Three gold coins for a piece of brocade brocade, it can't be lower." Probably too many people were scared off by the price before, so the boss didn't even have the confidence to make an offer.

Three gold coins are enough for a family of five to live for ten years.There are not many rich people who come to the market to hang out. It is normal for ordinary people to be scared away when they hear this price.However, Chen Xiao felt that the price was not too bad, so she asked Du Rong to pay for it, and chose four colors: black, cream, brown, and blue and white.Chen Xiao's body has been growing recently, and she has to change clothes every once in a while.These four bolts of cloth are just used to make new clothes for this spring and summer.

After buying something, Chen Xiao's shopping habits are not so great.He took the lead and walked towards the place where the food stalls were more concentrated, and sat down at one that didn't look too bad.

Du Rong left temporarily, planning to find a container to store these brocades.Under Xiao Er's introduction, Chen Xiao ordered some popular food, and then sat and waited for the food to be served.

His eyes wandered aimlessly around.A young man who was not too tall caught his eyes.He carried a rectangular box as wide and narrow as a violin on his back, and was wearing a dark blue bunt suit.The other party is only about 1.6 meters long, with a round face and single eyelids. Because the eyelids are relatively thick, it feels like he has not woken up.The bridge of the nose under the eyes is a bit sunken, making the tip of the nose look straight.The round and full mouth was tightly pursed, and it was obviously a baby face that was not an adult, but it had to be serious.

Don't look at the opponent's bullying face, but Chen Ling can tell from the aura around the opponent's body that this is a cultivator.And his cultivation base is very high, at least one realm higher than Du Rong, and about the same as Xi Yunting's two nephews.Strictly speaking, this is an immortal teacher.

But now the immortal master was submerged in the crowd.As if following the adults out to wander around, but accidentally got lost, wandering around the vicinity.

Chen Xiao couldn't help but stare at the other party, because once he walked past, there was an air current moving in the air.Others may only feel a little breeze, and the hairs cannot be blown.But Chen Ling's eyes were different, as if there was a naughty brat constantly stirring up the water.After a while, the water pattern finally calmed down, and then he came to stir it again.

After the boy passed by him five or six times, Chen Ling finally couldn't help but said, "Are you lost?" The round-faced boy was startled by him, and turned around with a nervous expression Stretched: "What? I'm not lost."

Chen Ling looked at him speechlessly. Could it be that he looks like a bad guy, why is he so defensive.Besides, the other party is an immortal teacher, he is just an ordinary person, he can be killed with one finger, okay?

Chen Xiao said, "I saw you go back and forth many times." The round-faced boy said bluntly, "I'm just... just looking for a place. I'm really not lost!"

What else can Chen Xiao say to such a person who refuses to admit that he is lost.Just when the things he ordered came up, Chen Ling took out the chopsticks from the chopstick holder, nodded perfunctorily: "Okay, you can do whatever you want."

The round-faced boy was a little dull.Obviously he was the one who came to talk to him first, but he just left him alone and ate something by himself.

The round-faced boy stared at Chen Xiao who was buried in his food with resentful eyes, and then lingered in his bowl without a trace.In the end, he still didn't say anything, turned around and left.

Everything is complete, and Du Rong is back.He brought back a rattan box with a layer of soft cloth inside, wrapped the brocade carefully, and put it in the box.Chen Xiao said: "Uncle Rong has worked hard. This venison soup is quite good, try it soon."

Venison is too nourishing, he is young and healthy and dare not eat more, but it is good for someone like Du Rong who has just recovered from an injury.Du Rong obviously also understood that he was not polite to Chen Xiao, and most of the venison soup went into his stomach.

It's the colder time of the year, and after drinking a large bowl of venison soup, my forehead is sweating slightly.Du Rong set the bowl boldly, and said bluntly: "It's really enjoyable! I really enjoyed a lot of good food when I came out with the proprietor."

Chen Xiao took a deep breath of the vigorous fans, and after swallowing, asked: "What? Could it be that Uncle Rong used to practice outside, and the food he ate was very bad?"

Du Rong sighed: "Of course it's convenient to eat whatever is convenient for training outside. Where there are fierce beasts, I don't dare to light open flames. I usually eat cold and hard food, such as bread, jerky, etc." Chen Xiao followed Sigh: "It's really not easy to live outside."

There was a slight ripple in the air in front of his eyes, and Chen Ling knew that the boy had passed by again.Ever since Chen Xiao called him to stop, the number of times he passed by has dropped significantly.It takes only three times for a meal, and each time is very fast.

It was probably too slap in the face, he just dodged the past.But no matter how much he tried to hide, the indifferent fluctuation of his aura betrayed him deeply.

Perhaps because of the difference in realm between the two sides, Du Rong did not find a cultivator with a higher cultivation base than him nearby.After finishing the meal without knowing it, Du Rong paid the bill and asked Chen Xiao: "Proprietor, is there any place you want to visit this afternoon?"

No matter how lively the market is, the places are limited.After visiting two large areas, the last remaining one is the livestock area.Chen Xiao was hesitating whether to see if there were any distinctive animals, when the aura in front of him fluctuated brightly.

He turned his head and looked behind Du Rong who was sitting next to him.Du Rong turned around belatedly, and the round-faced boy looked down at him with a straight face.Du Rong was startled, he was approached by this young man without even realizing it, and he still stood in such a terrible place behind him.

The round-faced boy didn't know the horror in his heart. He didn't raise his eyes, but said in a choked voice, "My fellow Taoist, do you know how to get to the Embankment Wharf?"

The author has something to say: Although Du Rong is a supporting role, his overall role in the drama is not large.The round-faced boy appearing now is one of his regular teammates.
