Mutated Tao Chapter 30: Singing opera

Just when Li Huowang didn't know which song was being sung in front of him, the peasants sitting below watching the opera moved one after another. They took out a copper coin of two and threw it on the stage.

All the people watching the show were farmers begging for food in the fields, and those who lost money were always a small number, and most of them were corn sticks, potatoes and other grains.

Those who are thicker at home can throw some salted fish and bacon at most.

However, Luo Juanhua did not refuse anyone who came, and thanked her one after another.

"Is it true that all those who sing big plays need to be paid like this?" Li Huowang knew it in his heart.

Looking at Luo Juanhua kneeling so humblely on the stage, hugging her daughter and continuing to sing in a crying voice while reaching out to pick up the things on the ground and putting them in the basket, bowing to the cheering people below from time to time .

He suddenly sighed that it is not easy to earn this bowl of food.

Just as Luo Juanhua was having a great time picking up things, a small piece of broken silver was thrown up.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, she reached out to pick up the silver and weighed it lightly, and when she found that there were at least five coins, she immediately became operatic, and kowtowed to the only fat old man in silk and satin in the crowd while singing.

"Good good good good good singing! " The old urn with a blushing face raised his head, and another piece of broken silver flew up, welcoming Luo Juanhua to express his thanks.

Li Huowang was a little tired of the farce in front of him. He hiccuped and lay down on the pile of rice stalks, and said to Zhao Wu, who was relatively stable next to him: "I'll squint for a while, you watch."

"Okay, brother."

When Li Huowang opened his eyes again, he found that the sun was already high, and other people were chatting around. It seemed that everyone had been nestled in this pile of rice stalks last night to make do.

The theater stage in the distance has been dismantled, and the Lu family is stuffing those belongings into the carriage box.

"Zhao Wu, how many days do we have food?" Li Huowang asked suddenly.

"Not much more, save food for up to three days." Zhao Wu raised his mouth and answered.

Li Huowang handed him dozens of copper coins and a small piece of black silver from the pit in the material room. "Go to the village to exchange some food. I guess it will be enough to walk on the road."

There are more than a dozen people, and they are all young men. They consume a lot of food. They have brought so many bags from Qingfengguan, and they have almost eaten by now.

Zhao Wu, who was lying on the idiot's back, was about to let the idiot into the village, but after thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and called a better-looking little Taoist boy, and while putting the money in his hand, he whispered something.

Li Huowang put one hand on the pile of rice stalks and walked towards the stage in the distance.

"Old man, when are we leaving?" Li Huowang asked Lu Zhuangyuan.

At this time, Lu Zhuangyuan looked a little anxious, "Master Xiaodao, please wait for a while, my daughter-in-law took Xiu'er to nowhere this morning, and set off immediately when she comes back."

Li Huowang was puzzled. "Huh? Gone? Isn't that what it is?"

When Lv Zhuangyuan followed Li Huowang's fingers and looked towards the village, he saw a silk flower holding a few feet of cloth in his hand, walking towards this side with a smile in his arms and his daughter in his arms.

Seeing this incomprehensible daughter-in-law, Lu Zhuangyuan suddenly became furious, and rushed over with a cigarette pole, scolding his head and face.

Facing her father-in-law's anger, Luo Juanhua looked very innocent. "Father, didn't you ask me to go to the village to pull cloth. The cloth in the town is expensive..."

After venting his anger suddenly, Lu Zhuangyuan turned around and said to Li Huowang with a smile: "Master Xiao Dao, it's all right, let's go then."

"Hey! Dad, don't leave yet. When I went to buy cloth just now, I got a deal."

Hearing this, Li Huowang and Lu Zhuangyuan looked at Luo Juanhua at the same time. "What business?"

"What kind of business can we do, of course it is the business of singing opera. The employer is the master who paid the most money last night! You go and have a look, he said he has something to discuss with you."

As soon as he heard this, Lu Zhuangyuan couldn't walk anymore, he turned around slowly, and smiled at Li Huowang embarrassingly.

Although the other party didn't speak, but looking at the expression, Li Huowang certainly understood the other party's meaning. "It doesn't matter, it's important for Team Leader Lu to make money. Just wait an extra day."

"Ah, oh, I'm guilty, I'll go back, old man." After Lu Zhuangyuan finished speaking, he stuck the cigarette stick in his hand to his neck, and happily dragged his daughter-in-law towards the village.

Li Huowang returned to the pile of rice stalks. He had nothing to do. He picked up the shriveled Dao bell and looked at it carefully.

If I can really drive Master You, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance my strength.

It's a pity that this thing can't be summoned now, and we must find a way to fix it.

Turned it over and over carefully several times, and found that everything else was fine, except that the deflated bell wall was the only possibility.

"Then if it is corrected, can it be used?"

Li Huowang thought for a moment, put a square stone under the copper bell, and then picked up a stone and knocked it hard against the bulging side.

But as soon as the stone was struck, a harsh bell rang immediately, and Li Huowang suddenly had a splitting headache, and he could hardly hold the stone in his hand steadily.

"I can't do this, I have to ask if there is a blacksmith in this village." Li Huowang shook his drowsy head vigorously.

At this moment, Li Huowang saw those Taoist boys walking towards this side dragging two bags.

He put away the bell, and followed Zhao Wu who was on the fool's back, and rushed over there.

"Brother Li, we only changed to these." Dao Tong's immature face was full of uneasiness. Although they were all children, they were very sensible and capable. After all, the ignorant ones had already been killed by Dan Yangzi.

Li Huowang stretched out his hand and tore open the sack, only to find that it was full of dried sweet potatoes.

"Brother, these oily things can't last for a few days, a fool can eat a catty and a half in one meal, and eating too much of this stuff will burn your heart."

Zhao Wu's words made the simple and honest bald-headed stupid man hang his head in shame, "You...you...don't...don't...leave me... ...I...I eat less!"

There was not enough food, Li Huowang looked at the sack in front of him and thought about countermeasures.

Lv Zhuangyuan said that there are still many roads to Jianye City. If there is no food halfway, the dozen or so people like me can't eat the bark.

He reached into his pocket again and took out a gold ring wrapped with a red string.

Holding this thing and thinking about it, Li Huowang stretched out his hand and stuffed it into Bai Lingmiao's hand behind him, holding the hem of his clothes.

"Take this thing in exchange." Li Huowang took out Xuanyang's jade pendant and handed it to Zhao Wu.

"Brother, how can I change this? There is no **** shop in the village, and no one else can find it. Besides, these muddy plows who plow the fields may not know the goods."

"The jade pendant can't be exchanged for food, so what should I do?" Just when Li Huowang was troubled by the food crisis, he saw Lu Zhuangyuan walking towards him with his daughter-in-law.

"Well, Master Xiaodao, old man, I have encountered some trouble in business, can I trouble you to help me?" Lu Zhuangyuan looked very embarrassed.

"Master Lu, I don't know how to sing either. I'm afraid I can't help you with your troubles." Li Huowang felt very absurd. Could it be that he still wants to go to the stage to dance a sword?

"No, no, you can help, that is..." Lu Zhuangyuan said this, looked around furtively, leaned over and said in a low voice: "Then Master Hu told me to sing ghosts play...."
