Legend of Meow Immortal
Chapter 37
The attic floor is opened.
The little brother looked at the space in the attic with a little disappointment.
The small dried fish in the dish remained untouched. It was already midnight, and Little Elvis still didn't come back to sleep.
This incident made the little brother a little uneasy.
After all, it is familiar, not to mention that cat is so spiritual.
The little brother sighed and went down to the attic again, but the little fish didn't move.
At this time, outside the window of the attic, it started to rain lightly.
The oil lamps along the street swayed slightly in the wind and rain, and the light flickered on and off.
The guards guarding the city followed the rules and walked on the bluestone road.
Looking at the long path in the wind and rain, the swaying oil lamps on the side of the road, and the emblem-like buildings with horse-head walls on both sides, it looks like a picture scroll soaked in water vapor in this late spring and early summer night.
Beautiful and profound.
Xu Fan was dressed in plain white, and walked slowly from the side of the bluestone road into the light of the roadside oil lamp, and then slowly stepped from the light into the shadow.
The dim light shone on his skin, giving off a jade-like reflection, making him both dreamlike and inhuman.
Compared with his appearance in Wuhe Town, there was a slight change in his appearance, but this slight change made him seem like a different person.
Even acquaintances in Wuhe Town would not dare to come forward to recognize each other if they saw each other.
In Wuhe Town, Xu Fan always communicated with people with a kind of alienation similar to that of a scholar, but not indifferent, and even gave people a sense of gentle temperament, which easily made people respect him.
At this time, Xu Fan's temperament has changed drastically, his whole body is icy cold, making it difficult for people to approach.
The original thick eyebrows of lying silkworms were pulled back and turned into thick sword eyebrows.
Danfeng's eyes became more and more slender, and the thick eyelashes cast/shadowed the top of the eyes, making his black eyes brighter.
The nose, which is as bold as it is, is taller/straighter, but the red/moist lip color has faded a lot, showing a slight hint of purple, but the skin is getting whiter/skinner, but it is bright red.
If Xu Fan was considered handsome before, then Xu Fan at this time is handsome enough, and he is still the kind of extremely domineering handsome.
With a glance, it is sharp and cold, as if being stung by countless ice edges, but it is so beautiful that people don't want to move their eyes away.
"It's raining..." He looked up at the sky in the darkness of the oil lamps on the side of the road, his eyes were a little blurred, and he didn't know where to look.
The sound of footsteps came from the front, Xu Fan's figure paused, but he took out a half mask from his arms and put it on his face directly, covering the left half of his face.
The whole body of the mask is snow-white, but dark purple patterns are depicted on it, but it looks like a lotus flower pattern from a distance.
Putting on the mask, his icy demeanor eased a lot, showing a little coldness, even the domineering handsomeness that people couldn't take their eyes off seemed to be covered with a veil, and it became much darker.
"Who?" The footsteps in front stopped, and the three guards stopped in the range illuminated by the oil lamp, and shouted loudly.
Although there are night markets in Yujing City, they are all on the side of Yi'an Street, where ordinary people live.
And not every day, most of the time is between Wushi and Haishi, and the night market will be closed
What's more, this is Yunjin Road, and all the people live in rich families, and the city guards here are more frequent. In addition, it is already midnight, so when you meet someone, you will naturally ask for their identity.
"I'm a new resident of Houshan Courtyard. I just closed the shop, but I came back late." Xu Fan's voice was calm, deep and magnetic, but it didn't match his cold demeanor.
"Houshan Courtyard? That old house?" The leader of the guard was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the legend of Houshan Courtyard.
That's a haunted house!
I heard that it was bought ten days and a half months ago. Most people actually thought it was funny. They thought that the new residents must be outsiders who didn’t understand the way of living here. God, it's likely that they will think about selling the house.
But the strange thing is that no one has heard of it. There is news that Houshanyuan has been sold.
The leader of the guards trembled in his heart. Those who can live in the ghost house safely must either have their own skills or know someone who is capable. No matter what it is, they are not easy to mess with.
"Please show me the bamboo deed, so I can confirm my identity." The guard's tone suddenly became more polite.
In the shadows, Xu Fan gradually walked into the light range of the oil lamp, but his appearance surprised everyone, but most of the eyes were looking at the white mask he was wearing, with surprise in their eyes.
Xu Fan seemed to be aware of the mask he was wearing, "I'm really sorry, I was born with a disease and ugly, so I had to use a mask to cover it."
As soon as he said this, the surprised look in his eyes suddenly turned into regret.
Pulling off a bamboo token from his waist, Xu Fan handed it to the leader of the guards.
The leader of the guards took out a disc from his pocket, inserted the bamboo tablet into the concave of the disc, and tapped it in the middle again.
A faint white light shone directly on Xu Fan, but Xu Fan remained motionless, letting the light shine on his body.
In the next breath, the faint white light turned into cyan. The guard looked at the words floating on the surface of the disc, his eyes narrowed, but he raised his head and said to Xu Fan, "Mr. Xu? I'm so disrespectful. This is Yunjin The road and the place are more sensitive, please don't worry about it."
Xu Fan took the bamboo card from him, "It's nothing, it's just my duty. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't want to buy a house here."
"After all, I'm a businessman. When a businessman seeks money, what he wants is stability."
"If I'm not mistaken, the old store of Mo's family was closed, and the Yunluo Cake Store opened later is the store of Boss Xu." The leader of the guard said again with a strange expression.
Xu Fan didn't find it strange either, he did open a pastry shop, but the price was a bit scary.
Many people entered his shop and took a look around. Although they were very curious about those fluffy pastries, there was not a single buyer.
"That's right, please take care of the business." Xu Fan didn't care about it. Opening a pastry shop is just a cover, and whether he can make money is secondary.
The leader of the guards smiled awkwardly, but said nothing. The price of the pastry was beyond his affordability. Then he waved his hand, moved out of the way with his subordinates, and saluted Xu Fan again.
No matter how unbelievable and abnormal this person's business is, it is obvious that he is not short of money, which means that he may have some background.
That being the case, it is better not to offend or not to offend.
Xu Fan also nodded and walked over at a leisurely pace.
When Xu Fan walked away, a voice came from behind the leader of the guards, "Boss, why are you being so polite to him? Isn't he just a pastry seller?" There was a dissatisfied voice.
"Cakes? Have you ever seen pastries that sell for one gold dollar?" The guard leader sneered.
"One gold dollar?" The guard behind was choked up suddenly, and his voice was a little out of tune.
The money of the Great Xia Empire originally used physical knives and coins, which were divided into three categories: gold, silver and copper.
But Qianbi Qiancheng uses dime coins, which are also gold, silver and copper, but they are twice as small as Daxia's, and their value has also shrunk by half.
But now, with the appearance of that peerless emperor, Daxia's golden knife coins are gradually being replaced by gold ingots with magical powers, which are similar to paper money.
It is obvious that Tiandi Daomen also intervened in this matter, after all, there are too many benefits-and the gold ingot banknotes endorsed by Daxia and Tiandi Daomen, because of its easy-to-carry feature, gradually replaced the position of gold knife coins and became currency.
According to this situation, it is estimated that silver ingot banknotes and copper ingot banknotes will be issued in the future.
Following the same example, Qianbi Qiancheng also had its own gold coins issued later, but it was still not as good as the gold coins of Daxia, and it was hard to pass without the money of Daxia.
But even so, one gold dollar in a thousand cities on the precipice is enough for an ordinary family of three to live comfortably for four to five months without doing anything.
That is a gold horn coin equivalent to Daxia knife coins, fifty silver knife coins, and five thousand copper knife coins.
In Daxia, five copper knives can buy two steamed buns, fifty copper knives can buy a good meal for one person, five hundred copper knives can buy ordinary jade accessories, five thousand copper knives Enough to buy a luxury item.
And with so much money, you can only buy a pastry?
Is the pastry brushed with gold powder?How can it be so expensive?
"Besides...do you dare to live in the Houshan Courtyard?" Before the guards behind could react, the leader of the guards said casually.
The guard behind him shrank his neck immediately, "Isn't that a haunted house? It is said that there are locust trees behind it, and people have died, I dare not."
"But that Boss Xu lived comfortably. Do you think he has symptoms of hell? On the contrary, he is very leisurely." The leader of the guard said coldly, his eyes flickering slightly.
"I heard you say that, it's true." The guard behind suddenly lowered his voice.
"That's right. Is there anything wrong with what the head said?" Another guard said with a cold snort.
The leader of the guards stopped in place for a while, then turned to the two people behind him and said, "In short, don't offend that person, maybe he is also a monk, and he is here for Jianxia Pass three years later."
As soon as these words came out, no one spoke again.
Xu Fan, who was walking slowly ahead, glanced back slightly.
Is it the secret work of Daxia?It lurks deep enough...
It's just strange, there is no one who can make trouble for him, but he is very polite.
What are the people in Daxia thinking?
He looked down at the back of his right hand again. The skin on the back of the hand was white/sallow, revealing blue tendons, which had the beauty of jade, and a purple lotus seed was printed on it.
After all, I still think wrong, but the lotus seeds are not the original owner of the flesh/body, but belong to me...
The opportunity hidden by those two old guys is too great, it is said that they pointed directly at the void of Mahayana, but unfortunately at that time, they had only a half-knowledge of cultivation, and did not understand the meaning of pointing at the void of Mahayana at all.
He endured it for dozens of days, and finally opened the jade box in the barren hills outside Yujing City.
Then misfortune happened.
The little brother looked at the space in the attic with a little disappointment.
The small dried fish in the dish remained untouched. It was already midnight, and Little Elvis still didn't come back to sleep.
This incident made the little brother a little uneasy.
