"Thank you, real person!"

"The real person is so kind to us!"

The group of businessmen were even more surprised and moved than the Shucun businessmen. At least they didn't know it in advance and were not mentally prepared. They almost cried bitterly when they found it again.

It’s not easy to run a business these days. Whether it’s to Jiangnan or the capital, it doesn’t take three or five days to get back and forth. In addition, you have to face risks on the road, and you will inevitably have to eat and sleep in the open. It’s a hard job, and the status of a businessman is not high.

, only the most steadfast and hard-working people who are not afraid of hardships can persevere. Therefore, many caravans are from the same village and the same race, so they can help each other.

It is not easy to make money, and it is difficult to find something again. I have to check it repeatedly to make the illusory feeling in my heart gradually return to reality.

"Where do real people practice?"

"Yishan, Fuqiu Temple."

"Yishan?"

"It's somewhat remote and unknown to the world."

"Does anyone really know what those thieving monsters are? I only heard from people who have seen them in the city that they are villains who are no taller than a man's knees!"

"It's a group of rat demons."

"Rat demon?"

"It's not that powerful, but there are some monsters with a small ability that can make people sleep. If you have strong blood and a strong will, and can resist not sleeping and are not afraid of them, it will not be difficult to deal with them."

"I dare to ask the real person, can we get rid of them?"

"I don't know if they have been eliminated, and I don't know if there are only those last night in this city." Lin Jue sighed in his heart and shook his head. It was really a helpless move to get back the money.

"If they are stolen again in the future, you can come to Yishan Fuqiu Watch to find us." Brother Seventh said thoughtfully, "My watch has a way to deal with them."

"Remember it!"

The group of businessmen looked at each other, and an older one took a few pieces of silver and handed it to the seventh senior brother.

"I heard that the roads in Yishan are remote, so the real person has to accept it no matter what. Count the incense money we give to the Taoist temple and the reward for exorcising demons from the real person. If you are lucky, you must go to Yishan to pay a visit next time to say thank you."

The seventh senior brother took it.

Seeing this, the businessman from Shucun also took out his money and wanted to hand it over.

The seventh senior brother looked back at Lin Jue, but refused. He just smiled and said it was help from his neighbors.

Lin Jue thought for a moment, then stepped forward and took out his banknotes from his arms, which amounted to about twenty taels. He only kept five taels and handed over all fifteen taels.

"I just heard Uncle Shu say that there was a flood nearby this summer. I wonder if the village has been flooded. Even if it has not been flooded, my uncle has just recovered and needs money." Lin Jue said, "There are ten liang here.

It was me who delivered the letter on the road, and the money was given by others as a gift. The rest is the silver reward given by the county magistrate for killing the strange monkey. Please help me take it back and give it to my aunt."

"What? We will take care of your family's affairs. Don't you need money when you are away?" Uncle Shu didn't answer for a while.

"I have worshiped in the Yishan Taoist Temple and have been practicing in the mountains since then. I have food and accommodation, but not much money." Lin Jue said sincerely, "Please also tell my uncle and aunt that I have settled down outside and am living well.

Very good, please don't worry them. If I have time, I will go back to visit them."

"All right……"

The middle-aged man took the money and put it away solemnly.

He secretly thought to himself that the reward for Lin Jue's help should also be given to his uncle and aunt.

Both parties solemnly said goodbye and left each other.

The Seventh Senior Brother weighed the scraps of silver in his hand and found that they were about six or seven taels. Those merchants were very particular and gave him almost 10% of the reward.

"Don't think too much. After all, we got the money back. The people in this city have learned a lot and use iron boxes, so they won't be stolen easily.

"As for those monsters and monsters who instigate the rat monsters behind the scenes, go back and report to the master, and then let him make a decision."

The seventh senior brother said, divided two pieces of silver and handed them to Lin Jue and the younger junior sister:

"For now, this money is considered as our extra money. Whatever you want to buy, you can buy it yourself. There is no need to save. Anyway, for Guanzhong, more or less money is enough. If you spend the rest, you can just give it back to Guanzhong."

"ah?"

"Ah what? The fourth brother told me to buy him a piece of ink, so I went to buy it for him first. Let's go separately and meet at the gate of the city. If we go together, I don't know how much time it will take. I'm afraid it will be too long to walk back to the mountain.

It's already dark." Brother Seventh said, "Don't worry, Yi County is also a big city, and no monsters dare to cause trouble in the city during the day."

The two of them looked down and saw that the money was already in their hands.

Irregular broken silver, but also heavy.

The seventh senior brother turned around and left.

"Let's go."

Lin Jue said something to his junior sister and then took steps forward.

First I saw a meat seller.

Lin Jue wanted to buy some suet and go back to make lard. At the same time, he looked down at the fox at his feet, thought for a moment and said, "You were a great contributor last night, so I'll cut you a pound of lean meat first."

The fox turned to look at him and then at the butcher shop.

There were already a lot of people on the street, and they all found it strange to see a fox following a Taoist priest, and they all looked over.

"What do you want to buy, junior sister?"

While Lin Jue was waiting for the butcher to cut the meat, he asked his junior sister again.

"I don't need to buy it."

The junior sister said without thinking.

His expression was firm, as if he was about to fall into trance.

Lin Jue saw that she had a temperament that did not spend money recklessly. This may be related to her childhood education or her poor background. He did not say anything and just turned his head and looked away.

There is a shop selling wontons.

After cutting the meat, put suet in a bamboo basket, and ask the boss to cut the lean meat and wrap it in lotus leaves. Lin Jue took Fox and the junior sister straight to the wonton shop and ordered two bowls of wontons. The lean meat was put in lotus leaves.

On the ground, let this little fox have a rare and unbridled meal.

Soon the wontons were served.

The soup base made from bones has a bit of jade color. It only adds a little salt and sprinkles a few chopped green onions, and it is already very fresh. The wontons don't have much meat, they just have a taste, but they are much better than Guanzhong food.

.

The little junior sister ate very happily.

Lin Jue was thinking about it while eating.

I bought clear oil, soy sauce, vinegar and spices last night. I just bought suet. I have to go buy some rice and noodles early this morning. It is not convenient to buy on the mountain. The cured meat and ham here are famous and easy to store and carry, so I have to buy some. If I come across one for sale

The one selling rice wine also has a pot, and the one selling sugar would be even better.

It seems that there is not much salt left in the temple.

You can also give Third Senior Brother a pot of good wine.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard someone shouting from the opposite side:

"Ice cheese! Ice cheese from the capital! If you don't buy it, you won't be able to eat it in a few days! The jade will break at the bottom of the plate, and the snow will disappear at the edge of your mouth!"

Lin Jue immediately stretched his neck and looked up.

It looks vaguely familiar.

"Junior sister."

"Huh? What's wrong, senior brother?"

"Can I have another bowl for you?"

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat."

"I want another bowl of wontons."

Lin Jue shouted to the owner of the wonton shop.

Before the junior sister could refuse the extra bowl of wontons, she heard the senior brother ask again: "Junior sister, have you ever eaten ice cheese?"

"Ah? What, what ice cream?"

The junior sister was a little confused and a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Here." Lin Jue raised his chin in front of him, "It's said to be a luxury product from the capital."

The junior sister immediately became vigilant.

"It must be very expensive!"

Lin Jue looked at her with a smile: "Then you must have never eaten it, right?"

The little girl also looked at him seriously:

"Senior brother, I don't want to eat~"

"You can't get it anywhere else."

“I eat wontons!”

"Didn't you hear the shout? If you don't eat it, it will be gone in a few days, and last year's ice will have melted away!"

"Don't eat..."

After a while——

Two bowls of ice cheese, which are expensive and rare these days, have appeared on their table. This is a cold drink made with milk, eggs, sugar, starch and ice. It is like a paste and exudes the sweet fragrance of milk.

A small mountain was placed on the plate. Thanks to the prosperous commerce here in recent years, and thanks to the fact that this is the capital of the state, otherwise I would have to go to the capital to eat it.

Lin Jue took the bamboo slices and took a bite first.

But it doesn't just look familiar.

It also tastes a bit familiar.

Lin Jue suddenly showed a look of reminiscence.

The junior sister imitated him and scooped it up and took a bite.

In early autumn, when the summer heat is not yet over, it is already very hot, but when you take a bite of ice cheese, your mouth is filled with ice coldness. It is creamy and sweet, and disappears in your mouth. It is just like what is said in the sales voice——

It seems greasy but feels refreshing, it feels condensed but feels like floating;

The jade will shatter at the bottom of the plate, and the snow will disappear at the edge of your mouth.

Where has the little junior sister tasted this kind of taste before? She was surprised and amazed for a moment, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes.

When I opened my eyes, my senior brother was smiling all over his face.

"Is it delicious?"

"tasty!"

"You haven't eaten it, have you?"

"I've never eaten it before! Senior brother, have you ever eaten it before?"

"I?"

Lin Jue was stunned for a moment, intending to lie, but he had no choice but to pause, and then he sighed: "I haven't eaten for a long time..."

Lower your head and take another sip, it's all memories.

Memories give it a new flavor.

Indeed, as the Seventh Brother said, the Taoist temple itself can be self-sufficient, no matter how much money there is, it is enough. At this time, the two of them are doing this, which is probably the greatest value of this little money.

…

After breakfast, we did some shopping and left the city to meet up.

The Seventh Senior Brother has a certain rosy look on his body.

However, except for the little fox, who had a keen sense of smell and a simple mind, he found it strange and sniffed him again and again. Lin Jue and the other two did not speak, and the other did not smell it.

The three young Taoist priests took advantage of the early morning, took their donkeys, and gradually moved away from the official road to the remote mountains.
