hold this little monk

Shi Xu picked a cheap wine shop, and before the few of them went in, they were startled by the smell of sweat and thunderous applause before they could be attracted by the shopkeeper with a belly as big as a ball.

Xiaoxuan's first reaction was to look at Bi Kong. Fortunately, he had already covered the part below the nose. Now that he mentioned it a little, he simply covered the nose.

"Boss Wang told me that there are many prodigal sons in this place, so the news should be well-informed." Shi Xu whispered.

The shopkeeper on the counter was originally staring at the accountant with a ferocious face, his small eyes rolled round, and he accidentally caught a glimpse of the three people who were hesitating at the door and did not come in. Seeing their bright clothes, the shopkeeper's eyes flashed With a clean face, he immediately left his position and came face to face with a smile on his face.

Seeing his eyes like a hungry wolf meeting a big white rabbit, Shi Xu didn't hesitate to rush forward to greet him with a smile before he shot at the other two children who hardly knew the price.

"Sit inside, guest officer," the shopkeeper said while stretching out his fat pig hand to pull Shi Xu in, "Is the guest officer famous for himself, or was it recommended by a brother?"

Seeing the temptation revealed in his eyes, Shi Narrative clearly understood that he was afraid of blackmailing a client recommended by an acquaintance.Adhering to the mentality of "If you are not afraid of being slaughtered, you are afraid that he will not be slaughtered", Shi Xu said: "Of course it is famous! What is the shopkeeper's recommendation?"

The shopkeeper laughed until the crow's feet deepened. He personally took a rag and wiped the stools and tables. He asked everyone to sit down and said, "That must be the treasure of my store, which is most suitable for you. The jar of this wine is made from southern porcelain. The wine was specially transported from the town, which can best maintain the fragrance of the wine, and the person who scoops the wine is a bamboo tube made of high-quality Xiangfei bamboo, so the combination of the mellow wine and bamboo fragrance is absolutely perfect! It is very suitable for the young master—— "

His demeanor was exaggerated, and many drunkards with flushed complexions and drunkenness around him were amused by him, and they all smiled maliciously at the three people who were about to be blackmailed.

Shi Xu sat down and looked at his companion: "Do you want to drink?"

Xiaoxuan forced Bi Kong to sit down, and said: "Drink, listen to what the shopkeeper said, I feel that if I don't drink, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

He glanced at the people around him and said half-jokingly.Sure enough, these words made those drunkards burst out laughing, and they looked at them differently from the girls around them - they completely regarded them as fools.

The shopkeeper's smile became more and more wretched, and he stretched out his hand and said, "One tael of silver, the guest officer will give the money first, and it will be served in a while."

"One tael of silver?" Xiaoxuan smiled, touched the purse that was bulging because Shi Xu's entire net worth was stuffed, and pretended to be generous, "It's really affordable after spending so much effort on making wine. "

In this poor village, one tael of silver can eat forty bowls of noodles with meat and eggs and drink ten jars of wine. This is really ironic.

The laughter in the restaurant gradually died down, and everyone stared at the purse that Yu Xiaoxuan took out with shining eyes. Compared with the full purse, one tael of silver was really petty.

"Oh, you guys are really rich!" The shopkeeper thought that the three of them were just ordinary rich men, but he didn't expect them to be so rich. Thinking of the price he just casually mentioned, he regretted it 1 times.But the words have already been spoken, and he is not a three-year-old child, so it is impossible to change his words, so he can only go to the backyard to get wine with blood dripping from his heart.

Yu Xiaoxuan was also bleeding.

This purse looks bulging, that's because they have already put all the silver on Shi Xu's body into Bi Kong's purse, which is all the belongings of the three of them.

The three of them don't know how long they will have to wander outside to find Bi Kong's parents and uncle. If Bi Kong's parents and Liu Yan have separated, then the two elders may also be hungry and full. How can they take care of them? For the three of them, as for returning to Beijing, that is an unknowable dream.

Xiaoxuan couldn't help sighing in his heart, maybe he was poor and afraid in his previous life, but in this situation, he is the only one who is worried about money.

Bi Kong is completely ignorant of all prices, and he is not used to calculating carefully. It is precisely because of this that he handed his purse to Xiaoxuan without hesitation on the day he left Beijing.Little did he know that Xiaoxuan had mixed feelings at that moment. Looking at Bi Kong who was solemnly handing over his purse, what appeared in his mind was the image of her husband working hard and then giving all his salary card to his wife.

That was a very dangerous thought, and it was dispelled by Xiaoxuan himself with a shudder the second it appeared in Xiaoxuan's mind.

But Shi Xu is even more powerful, he knows everything, he is probably too worldly, but he likes to enjoy himself in time, he spends money when he has money, and earns money when he has no money. He still hasn't told Xiaoxuan yet, only saying that the secret must not be leaked.

And according to Shi Xu's temper, it is very likely that he is talking nonsense.Thinking about it this way, Xiaoxuan felt more and more that the road in front of him was a dead end.

He hesitated for a while, then reached out his hand and took out a small pair of shiny golden things from his pocket, and handed it to Shi Xu: "Let's see how much this is worth."

Shi Xu was stunned for a moment, just now they deliberately exaggerated their financial resources to pretend to be rich, so that the shopkeeper would think they were some kind of Buddha, and would try their best to make friends with them, so as to make it easier for them to talk.But now that the shopkeeper is not here, why does Xiaoxuan take out a pair of earrings?What's more, this earring... As soon as he held it in his hand, he knew it was not a vulgar item, and the price was much more expensive than that full purse.

Moreover, Shi Xu noticed that the little prince's eyes had obviously changed.

"Did you bring this thing out from there?" Shi Xu swallowed the words "Gong Li" and asked.

Xiaoxuan nodded: "I don't need it either, do you think it can be pawned?"

"..." Shi Xu rubbed his temples, very puzzled, lowered his voice and said, "Can you, a literati, have some backbone, you, the glossy material of this thing is extremely high-quality, so expensive, okay? You Take it so easily in this kind of place? Who else but me can see how good this thing is? You are reckless!"

Xiaoxuan let him finish his criticism, and said calmly: "Tell me, if the price difference in the pawnshop here is too big, I won't be a pawnbroker."

Shi Xu was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood: "What I want to talk about is not the question of the difference in money. This thing is extremely elegant. It must be for everyone in your place? If you want to give it to ordinary people casually, you might as well return it." Sell ​​it to me after there, I know its value anyway."

Xiao Xuan chuckled: "I just realized today that you are also a literati."

Shi Xu also retorted: "I also began to doubt whether you are a literati."

"I'm not a literati, nor a scholar, just a commoner." Xiaoxuan took back the earrings, put them on the palm of his hand and looked at them, his eyes were indifferent, "As long as I'm short of money, I'll pawn it off, what do you want? , I’ll go to the pawnshop to buy it when I have money.”

Seeing that Shi Xu couldn't persuade him, he could only sigh and remain silent.Unexpectedly, Bi Kong, who had been silent all this time, opened his mouth. He seemed to have been unconsciously nervous since Xiaoxuan took out the pair of earrings.

"You can take this." He said softly, pointing to his sword wrapped in a cloth - it was a good sword that Liu Yan asked someone to make for him.

Shi Xu opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and looked at the eyes of the two people opposite, revealing countless feelings such as deep admiration, shock, and helplessness.He looked left at Bi Kong holding a sword, right at Xiao Xuan holding an earring, dumbfounded.

The value of the sword is more than that of the earrings, one or two are pawned, is it crazy?Shi Xu slandered from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't dare to say a word.

Shi Xu didn't know what the pair of girly earrings meant to Bi Kong, but Ke Xiaoxuan knew it, but he understood it, and he would not be soft when he should.

In his previous life, he was alone, so of course he could be free and unrestrained, he could not care about those things outside his body, and live in a musty basement side by side.

But now he has "old" on the top and "young" on the bottom, is it different from before.

The atmosphere seemed to be condensed, and it was colder than the sky outside Dafeng Town.Fortunately, Xiao Er brought up a jug of wine in time, filled them with good wine with a playful smile, and played sloppy for a while before leaving, barely enlivening the atmosphere.

Xiaoxuan ignored Bi Kong, took a sip from the wine bowl that he suspected hadn't been wiped clean, and frowned: "Strong, not fragrant."

Bi Kong kept looking at him, no matter how he changed the subject, he still did not give up and said, "Brother."

"..."

Sure enough, this title has magical power, Xiaoxuan's hardened heart softened again, he softened his expression, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be joking, my little monk, you took it, who will protect me, I Terrible to die."

"Of course I won't let anyone hurt you. It doesn't matter if I have it or not." His tone of speech has always been relatively gentle, light and slow, and it is very comfortable for others to listen to, not to mention that the words are full of overflowing emotions. The real feelings are too much to bear.

Whether there is a sword or not, it really doesn't matter to him. His armor has always been the man sitting beside him.From the beginning of desperately practicing martial arts with the monks in the temple, until now he has achieved success in learning, he has never relied on the sword.

Shi Xu found out in embarrassment that the little prince had completely ignored his existence.In the past, these two would be quite considerate and not show some thoughts in front of him, but now... Could this be the legendary self-abandonment?

In the past, Xiaoxuan could stay with such blunt words for a long time, but now he can answer without changing his face: "Oh? Then is this earring very important to me? Why keep it? Save it for later Are you going to be part of your marriage money?"

He still had such a nonchalant smile on his face, as if what he blurted out was just for fun, but the content was so real that people couldn't see the truth from the fake.Shi Xu felt wronged for the poor 17-year-old boy while listening.

Like such a heartless guy, how much evil did he do in his previous life?
