Chapter 78: No Goods Wanted

The three of them discussed some details about going up the mountain, and they didn't realize it was evening until the main courtyard came to tell me about dinner.

In the evening, several people told Mrs. Bai about the plan. Mrs. Bai didn't say anything, but just asked the miracle doctor when he would arrive.

Yan Zhuo was also a little confused, saying that it was a few days later, four or five days later, and there was still no news in the city.

But she was not in a hurry. Dr. Fang had always had personality and would definitely come back when he said that he would come back, but he just thought that he had been delayed by something.

Zhizhi heard that they were going to Baiyun Village in Daqi Mountain, and she also clamored to join in the fun. The hero of the Green Forest, the King of Mountains, that was her life ideal! Naturally, she had to follow her even though she worked hard!

Yan Zhuo thought that it was not bad for her anyway, so he agreed.

...

It was July 28th. There were a few rays of autumn rain floating in the morning, which made people feel cool and the heat of summer disappeared completely.

Shortly after the Haicheng Gate opened, there were endless merchants and travelers rushing in the streets and alleys, taking advantage of the cooldown to start various transactions.

Babao Lane southwest of the city is a place where antiques and strange goods are sold, pawn shops, literary goods, and erotic shops are lined up.

The rich and powerful man put on a big door, and all kinds of treasures were placed in the mahogany cabinet.

There are also people who carry a cloth bag and sit down the street against the wall, put the baby away, shout or huddled aside and wait for someone to come up and take a look.

There are a wide range of goods.

There are pre-Qin bamboo slips, bronze swords from the Warring States Period, bronze pieces of chariots and horses from the Han Dynasty, porcelain pillows that Yan Yuan slept with, round fans that Xi Shi played with, wine husks that the imperial concubine drank... only you can't imagine, but you can't buy them.

A man with a hoodie carried a big bag on his shoulders and a long sword around his waist. He hurriedly walked through the streets and alleys, attracting a series of curious gazes.

The bag was heavy, and the man was full of murderous aura. I think he was a good person.

Everyone thought so, but they didn’t know if he wanted to sell it alone or pick up a stall to sell it.

A little beggar who was wandering around the streets looked at the man's back and blinked.

The man was walking left and right in the alley, turning to the end of an inconspicuous broken street before stopping.

There was a small shop there, only half a black wooden door was opened, and the oil paper on the flower window with its edges had already faded and faded. The room was dim and dark, and people could not be seen clearly.

"Shopkeeper, shipment." The man knocked at the door.

A man came out of the inner room, looked at him with a slanted eye, and whispered: "Come?"

"Yes." The man closed the door casually.

In this moment, the little beggar came over and gently drew a fork in the corner of the wall with red wax, and then walked away quickly.

"Open it!" The man asked him to sit down on the couch, "Anyway, no one is here, so it's more noticeable to keep it closed."

The man opened the door again, came over and put the bag on the bamboo couch, and said in a muffled voice: "Good guy! Guess what I found inside?"

The shopkeeper who walked out was a hunchback, and his waist was like a shrimp while sitting. He trembled when he heard this, "What?"

"The Emperor's Spiritual Position Card! There are many treasures there, and they are worthy of being a member of the Tian family. It is indeed a lean camel that is bigger than a horse! Even if you are forced to death, this treasure is enough for us to eat for a few years!"

Hunchback heard that it was this, but he didn't respond. He flipped into his bag and picked it up, "Did you see a jade carving piece? There was a bead embedded in it."

The man pulled into the pile of gold and jade devices, "It's all here, there are gold, pearls, jade balls and pearls, see if there is anything you mentioned!"

He hunched his back, feeling a little disappointed, and shook his head, "Have you searched all the inside?"

"Of course!" The man was a little dissatisfied, "Will we brothers make mistakes if we make a move? Not to mention fighting, we have touched all the ashes and smashed the stone piers in the corners of the wall and looked at them!"

The hunchback's eyes were a little dim. He picked up a handful of Yu Ruyi and played with it, murmured: "It's all the best, but has it alarmed the Bai family?"

The man said, "It's dangerous. We just finished touching the spot and met the Bai family to visit the grave. We originally wanted to make it feel good to fall into the water, but they secretly brought people. The brothers retreated because they were afraid of alerting the snake."

He nodded hunched his head and said that he was right, "The life of the Bai family is not worth much. The valuable one is that treasure. Don't lose watermelon for a sesame seed! Besides, if you can't find that thing in the pit, you can only force the Bai family to take it by yourself."

He said as he took out a heavy box from the cabinet behind him, "This is a reward, I will collect some of this guy and I will give it to you later."

The man wrapped the box into the bag, lifted it up and weighed it, grinned, "Good!"

After he walked for a while, he looked at the pile of things again, then threw it under the counter in a wrap, and then got up and walked slowly towards the inner room.

This day passed soon.

At night, the lights in front of the store went out.

Not long after, the wooden tie under the flower window sounded the sound of being sawed, like a mouse gnawing on wood.

Then, with a light "click", a small figure lifted the flower window from outside and came in, flipping around the house, suddenly flipping into a bunch of jade pieces, and couldn't help but feel happy!

Suddenly, footsteps came from behind, and the little figure rolled on the ground, curled up in a ball and squished into another counter, right next to the bag.

The sound of footsteps was accompanied by the sound of people talking.

"Take everything away?"

"Take it away, don't leave any trace."

"yes."

Then the footsteps walked towards the counter.

A pair of legs appeared in front of the little figure huddled inside, and there was a large circle of black stains on the edges of the trouser legs, and a strong smell of blood came to the nose.

The little figure held his breath.

Soon, the legs left with the bag of things, and returned along the way, disappearing from behind.

The little figure rolled out, took a deep breath, and did not dare to stay anymore, and left quietly.

...

Before dawn the next day, Yan Zhuo and his friends were ready to set off.

First, he pretended to be a good face for Bai Yu, and Yan Zhuo personally dressed up his makeup.

This person's facial features were too heroic, so she had to cover him with more makeup and turn his facial features into a little ugly to cover up the delicateness.

When the door was opened, Zhizhi saw a "woman" wearing a pomegranate red gauze skirt beside Yan Zhuo, with a red lips and white teeth, a bun, a hairpin, and a bead flower. Her chest was bulging, so beautiful.

He laughed so hard that he fell off the chair.

Even Bai Yi was so happy that he coughed.

Yan Zhuo was wearing a big red riding suit, with a slanted bun, and a simple beaded hairpin, which looked neat and could not hide his charm.

"Is that okay?" Yan Zhuo asked Zhizhi.

Zhizhi laughed so hard that she gasped, "It's okay, it's so beautiful! It's like a fairy! It's just a bit thicker eyebrows!"

Yan Zhuo glanced at Bai Yu with a smile, "Why, shaved?"

Bai Yu clenched his fist and glared at her. What are the bullshit rules in the Xiling Gate?!

"Isn't it just pretending to be a woman?" He walked in front with a dark face, pretending to be calm. "The ugly the better!"

"Oh, your voice!" As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhizhi couldn't straighten his waist even more.

"Anyway, I'm only responsible for taking action, not talking." Bai Yu held his hands behind his back.

Yan Zhuo looked at Bai Yu with satisfaction. He looked good, but the only bad thing was that he was too tall and could only hunch over when walking.

It's okay, as long as you don't search, you can adapt to the situation.

"Why do you wear so red?" Bai Yi asked with a smile.

Yan Zhuo also went out, "People in their business are very particular and have many taboos. One of them is to avoid killing women in red. Because it is rumored that women die in red, they will easily become evil ghosts."

Each of the four rode a horse, and while chatting, they headed towards the Daqi Mountain in the southeast.
