Unexpected

Chapter 7 Jade Rabbit

Shi Xun and Lingyi came to the human world at the pace of Jiaping Yuechu. Compared with the comfort of Cang Zhujie, the human world has already entered the cold and windy deep winter.

Standing outside the town, Shi Xun was wearing an ivory-colored velvet coat, with two layers of red-colored robes and a layer of nirvana-colored trousers layered on top, with black knots tied at the cuffs, and the hem of the clothes curled around the edges of the clouds. There is a nirvana-colored red lotus pattern on the neckline, tall felt boots of silver coal bamboo on the feet, broken jade jade on the girdle, and the red-colored headband gently tied up the upper layer of hair.

Lingyi, still looks like that child, carrying a bamboo basket on his back.

In front of the two of them was the first village they would step into after going down to the realm—Jiuyi.

Jiuyi Town is an ordinary village on the boundary of Shanyin. The folk customs are simple and honest, and the town has lived in peace for many years.Shi Xun also came here in the previous life, but it was only for a short rest. I didn't expect that after many years, it still hasn't changed much.

Shi Xun pulled Lingyi's sleeve, and carefully entrusted the child who was less than half his height: "When you step into the human world, you and I are considered masters and servants. It’s good to follow the Romans, don’t cast spells at will, don’t cause trouble, if you can avoid us, don’t rush up, you should remember these three points.”

Xu Shi went through the instructions in turn, Lingyi's small nose and mouth had already twisted into a serious look, he tightened the straps of the basket with both hands, and nodded solemnly.

Suddenly, as if thinking of something good, he took out Nihuang's booklet from the basket: "Master, we can take a look at this."

After all, he turned it over.What makes people laugh and cry is that Nihuang’s booklet is full of crooked small portraits and unrecognizable words. I don’t know where the language is used. It’s very difficult to understand. The handwriting of the gadget is so neat that Shi Xun, who has been in the human world for ten years, can still recognize it.

Sure enough, Nihuang was still unreliable.

After all, after decades, the rules of the human world may be stricter.In the past, the gate guards in these villages and towns were not very strict, but now not only the gate guards are strict, but there are many more patrolling guards at the gates of the towns. After careful investigation, the two of them were allowed to enter the town.

After asking passers-by the location of the pawnshop, Shi Xun led Lingyi in one hand and the satin bag given by Nihuang in the other, and walked towards the pawnshop in Jiuyi Town.

Lutongdang is a time-honored brand of Jiuyi, which has existed since the establishment of the town, and its reputation and reputation are all models in the town.

Walking to the counter and stopping at the enshrining place, Shi Xun handed over the bag in his hand: "Damn it."

Lu Tongdang's imperial court took over the satin bag, and with years of experience, he weighed it carefully and found the broken pieces. He carefully poured the contents of the bag onto a plate covered with flannelette in front of him. lights up.

Such a good-looking and large pearl, as well as such a clear-colored Baguio jade, even if he served Lutong for ten years, he had never seen such a high-quality fragment.

After carefully inspecting the texture of the jade scraps and pearls, the court official said to Shi Xun: "My lord, your jade and pearls are of high quality, and after careful consideration, they must be expensive. Now this is a shame, but you can't buy it." Is it worth it?"

It is true that ordinary raw materials are far less valuable than processed finished products. If you find a craftsman to polish them at will, the price you deserve is very different from what it is now.

Shi Xun's expression didn't change, as if the words of the court minister were just an unknown wind: "You are the one, please bid."

After hearing that, the court official was very happy: "There are thirteen pearls in total, and one is two taels of silver. These jade materials can only be counted as your 20 taels of silver. Our pawn shop is willing to offer you 50 taels of silver for your pawn. This young master , what do you think?"

Shi Xun nodded and agreed: "Okay, please give me 45 taels of silver bills, half a penny, and the rest into broken silver."

That court said: "Okay, please wait on the side."

Ling Yi stared at the surrounding area with wide eyes, and after the court minister left, he asked very curiously: "Master, is there a lot of money here?"

Shi asked him back: "Naturally, Yingshuize's pearls and jade are not ordinary things."

After resting for a while, the pawnbroker handed over a money bag: "My lord, this is your pawn."

Shi Xun got up, checked it once, and thanked the guy: "Thank you!"

After leaving the pawn shop, at the beginning of noon, many restaurants on the street have seen more business. Shi Xun looked at Ling Yi, who was staring at the restaurant with bright eyes, very helpless: "I didn't eat often before, how can you Is it that hungry?"

Lingyi scratched his head in embarrassment, and said in shame: "Sister Nihuang told me about the delicious food in the human world a few days ago, and she talked about it for a whole day. Isn't it me, looking at the scenery makes you fall in love."

"You are the only one with a glib tongue." Shi Xun looked around and found that he had eaten a lot, "Which one do you want to eat?"

Ling Yiyi heard the excitement, pointed to a wonton shop on the corner of the street, and was very happy: "Master, that one, let's go eat wontons, shall we?"

Shi asked him back: "Okay, walk carefully."

Hearing this sentence, Ling Yiben's hands and feet that were about to bark their teeth and claws suddenly calmed down, but still like a gust of wind, he ran over vigorously with a gentle and quiet posture, took out a clean cloth with him and wiped the tables and chairs, With an immature accent, he greeted the store while asking questions.

"Shopkeeper, here are two bowls of fresh soup wontons."

"Okay, wait a moment, little boy."

During the greeting room, Shi Xun also walked through the market and sat down on the long bench, looking at the extraordinarily excited Lingyi, he actually had a headache: "Be careful, why are you still so naughty, don't worry about the words I entrusted you this morning." You didn't listen."

Not long after, a woman with her hair in a bun and a square cloth towel came over with two bowls of wontons: "Guest officer, your two wontons."

Shi Xun replied with a smile, "Thank you, the shopkeeper."

The soup bowl has a large mouth, and a porcelain spoon is used. The soup noodles are floating with chopped green onion and sesame seeds, and a plate of dipping sauce, which tastes very delicious.

While eating Chaos, Shi Xun sensed the aura of this town.

When he entered the town, he had already noticed that the flow of aura was blocked and it was difficult to draw it in. This was really at odds with the human world, which is the easiest to balance. The aura around him had to be gathered all the way to be able to nourish the essence of the inner world wooden roots.

Looking at it carefully now, the surrounding aura is thin and sluggish, and it is not enough to support the needs of mortals to eat food and body safety. If this is the case, there must be something unusual in the town.

After the two of them finished eating the wontons, they realized that there were no customers at lunch time, which should have been very popular. This was really weird.

Seeing that the two met each other earlier, the woman in the square scarf came over to talk to them: "My little brother, our town has a small population. I don't think you are a local. How about you? Are you visiting relatives and friends or playing in the mountains? here?"

Shi Xunben also wanted to inquire about the news, but he never refused her accusation: "It's an outsider. He came here and rested for two days. He was curious about something, so he asked the shopkeeper. Why is it still early? There are quite a few people going up the road?"

The square scarf lady naturally sat on their side and replied: "Little brother, you don't know, our town has only regained its popularity in the past few days. A plague broke out in Yue Town last year. Although no one was killed, it was quite sick. Fortunately, I met a miracle doctor in Junfutang for diagnosis and treatment, and everyone recovered from their illness. These days, everyone is recuperating at home, and the popularity on the street is definitely less. In the past few months, the superiors have also sent many patrols to our town To rectify the plague, if the plague has not improved in the past two days, the guards at the city gate would not dare to let outsiders enter the town. It also depends on the luck of your master and servant, otherwise the town will not accept outsiders, and you are afraid that you will sleep in the countryside .”

When Shi Xun heard the words, he lowered his eyes: "Yes, that's really a coincidence." No wonder the investigation was so strict when he entered the city, and he was actually infected with an epidemic.

After thinking for a moment, Shi Xun asked the lady at the wonton shop for the location of Junfutang, and then led Lingyi towards the medical clinic.Now that we have guessed the cause, we still have to look at the effect. How about the disease and epidemic, there must be a number, and it is also a good thing done by the evil beast.

The medical center mentioned by the shopkeeper just now is Junfutang at the market entrance of West Street, but as soon as he turned into West Street, he saw a simple medicine shed in the distance and many patients who were resting.

Shi Xun looked at many teenagers and girls in thin green and bamboo-colored casual clothes, mostly sixteen or seventeen years old, in the crowd, orderly and orderly.

Didn't it mean that there was only one divine doctor?Why are there so many disciples?While Shi Xun was thinking, he never stopped, and led Ling Yi straight to Junfu Hall.

There were still more than ten steps away from the entrance of the medical hall, and a man blocked it with a horizontal door.
