Hidden Blade Chapter 22: One penny stumps heroes

"A sword pierced the sky, just ask why it's not flat!"

In this last sentence, the old man’s tone is high-pitched, hidden gold, but it stops abruptly at the end, which makes people feel like chewing plum and slurping fluid, but they are endless aftertaste.

"Okay!" Someone shouted, but it was Chu Qiuli who was beside Xu Han.

After this loud shout, naturally everyone in the crowd responded, and the cheers were endless for a while.

After sitting on the curtain, the old man hurriedly put away the things in his hands, carried a porcelain bowl and hurried to the front of the people, and bowed to them one by one.

Only then did Xu Han really see the old man’s appearance. He was over sixties and his hair was white. He was born with kind eyebrows and kind eyes. He wore a gray padded jacket that was washed white, but he seemed to have worn it for too long. There were a lot of gaps, exposing the white cotton.

This is a craftsman who is too ordinary to be ordinary, relying on this mouth and hands to make a living.

The old man began to look for money, and brought his porcelain bowl that looked like a few years old and walked past everyone one by one. These spectators were quite satisfied, and they were probably willing to pay a penny or two, of course. The stingy or impoverished person walked away at this moment, but the old man didn't care about it, all smiled and thanked each one.

Soon he came to Xu Han's side, bowed and raised the porcelain bowl slightly.

"Meow!"

"Wow!"

Before Xu Han could speak, the cats and wolves beside him called towards Xu Han, urging him.

Xu Han smiled helplessly, looked at Chu Qiuli next to him, and stretched out his hand without saying a word.

"What are you doing?" The middle-aged man looked at Xu Han with a puzzled expression.

"Take the money." Xu Han said naturally.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was taken aback when he heard the words, and then took out three copper plates from his arms with a painful expression and put them in Xu Han's hands.

It's just that this approach immediately aroused the dissatisfaction between Xuan'er and Ao Wu. The two little guys widened their eyes and stared at Chu Qiuli fiercely.

"Not enough?" Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man asked cautiously.

Xu Han weighed the copper plate in his hand and squinted his eyes and said: "What do you mean?"

In order to make it easier for Chu Qiuli to come to Daxia to inquire about the situation, when Xu Han left, he gave Chu Qiuli all the seven or eight banknotes worth one thousand taels. This amount of money should not be counted in Xu Han's opinion. On what.

However, Chu Qiuli had a painful expression of killing him for half his life. After a while, he tremblingly took out a couple of pieces of silver from his arms and put them into Xu Han's hands.

Xu Han smiled with satisfaction, and handed the one or two pieces of broken silver to the bowl that the old man stretched out.

The crisp sound of the collision between the silver and the porcelain bowl was obviously very different. Everyone at the scene looked sideways at that time. The old man also looked up at Xu Han with a different face, and was about to say thank you, but his eyes suddenly It fell on Xu Han's body beside Xu Han.

His eyes froze for a while, and he sighed sincerely after watching for a while.

"This cat is good." He said so, his eyes sinking and falling on Ou.

Lord Wolf King hurriedly raised his head and stood tall, waiting for his usual compliments.

The old man didn't hesitate to say something about his beauty, and said: "This dog is also good."

"Ooo? Ooo!!!"

......

Finally, Xu Han and Chu Chouli used up all the power of the two tigers, and then pulled out the crowd, who was angry, fangs and claws, and wanted to tear the old man to pieces.

It was getting late, and the bustling streets became quieter. The two walked side by side. The black cat slumbered on Xu Han's shoulder, followed behind him with a battered wheeze, bowing his head.

The lanterns on both sides of the street are still on, swaying slightly in the night breeze, continuously stretching the shadows of a group of people.

"Ooo..." Xu Han glanced at Ooo, who seemed to have lost hope for Wolf Sheng, and said.

"Ooo..." Aooo didn't have much interest, he just responded faintly, his head still low, and his tail hanging down.

Seeing him like this, Xu Han is angry and funny in his heart, but on the surface he comforted him in a deep voice: "Oh, ah, that old man is getting older and his eyes are not good, so he can’t tell whether you are a wolf or a dog. It’s also normal. Just think about your appearance, but if anyone with a discerning eye can see that your old man is an upright wolf, it can’t be a dog, right?"

I have to say that Xu Han's ability to comfort people is quite good. Hearing the words with his head drooping, he immediately raised his head, and his eyes lit up. It tilted its head and called out: "Woo?"

It seems to be asking Xu Han that this statement might be true.

Xu Han nodded very confidently: "Naturally, this matter can still be false? If you don't believe me, ask Xuan'er."

"Meow." Xuan'er called out very cooperatively.

The Lord Wolf King, who was affirmed by Xuan'er, immediately regained his active temperament, and looked around Xu Han with excitement, a bit of joy.

Xu Han felt a little relieved when he saw this, and was about to take another step with Chu Qiuli to find the inn where he could stay.

But at this moment, a pair of father and daughter suddenly passed by the group. The little girl sitting on her father’s shoulders was attracted by Sahuan’s wailing, and suddenly pointed to the tender and tender words of waiwu. : "Daddy~IndoMTL.com~ That black dog is so cute, I want one too."

"Okay, good Yan'er, when you grow up, daddy will buy it for you."

The running motion of Ao Wu suddenly froze at that moment. It was sluggish for a long time, before turning its head slightly stiff to look at the pair of father and daughter. At that moment, the eyes suddenly burst into a terrifying fierce light.

"Ooo! Ooo!!!"

......

Xu Han and Chu Qiuli said in a low voice to the girl's father who was scared to cry for a full quarter of an hour before they obtained each other's forgiveness.

Ao Wu, who was injured one after another, completely lost confidence in Wolf Sheng. Xu Han was quite helpless about it. After all, it turned out to be a bit like a dog in the normal size of Ao Wu, especially when he lied to Xuan'er. Especially so.

He could only temporarily put away the thoughts of continuing to soothe Ao Wu, and led Chu Qiuli to start looking for a place to stay today.

I don't know if it was due to the market today, Xu Han asked four or five inns one after another, but they were already full. The group of people wandered around for most of the circle and finally found a rather run-down inn, and finally reached two wing rooms.

"Two, a total of seventy cents." After choosing the room, the guy smiled and stretched out his hand towards Xu Han and Chu Qiuli.

"Huh?" Xu Han turned his head to look at Chu Qiuli, and motioned for the money.

"Huh?" Chu Qiuli stared at Xu Han with wide eyes.

"Give it money." Xu Han, who secretly thought that the other party did not understand what he meant, said with his forehead.

"Didn't I give it to you?" Chu Qiuli responded innocently.

"That's just one or two, what about the rest?"

"It's gone."

"Nothing?" Xu Han looked at Chu Qiuli incredulously. When Chu Qiuli left half a year ago, he gave him seven or eight thousand taels of silver.

Chu Qiuli nodded with great certainty, and said: "It's gone."
