Chapter 24: Aoki
"Brother, I want to eat meat buns, can I exchange this token with you?"
Shu Xiaowu swallowed an uncontrollable saliva in his mouth, his bright round eyes stared blankly at the big white and tender bun in the steamer that was still a little above his head, and his heart was infinitely hungry. If it weren't for her height, she would like to throw herself into the steamer and kill them one by one along with their mouth-watering aroma.
Bag: Σ(°△°|||)︴ (horrified face...)
The shopkeeper's young man was only fourteen or fifteen years old. He was dressed in coarse linen and had a thin body, but his face was fair and delicate. He didn't look like a salesman, but a scholar. He looked at the little girl in front of him who was almost blocked, but couldn't stop the poor, hungry and flustered appearance (in fact, there was no...), and he couldn't bear it.
He wrapped the two big meat buns with oil paper without being skilled, and he handed the buns to the little girl in front of him, but he did not accept the token in her hand.
"I'll give you this." He said kindly. Seeing the girl follow his hand and take the bun, his eyes are bright, and his smile is even gentler.
Shu Xiaowu held the hot steamed bun in his hand, felt the heat in it, and the aroma of it wafted through his nose. Suddenly, he felt that the joy in his heart had rushed into the nine days, and he had traveled a circle on the misty clouds
However, she still understands the principle of equivalent exchange.
Shaking the dark green token in his hand, Shu Xiaowu reminded the little brother in front of him, "You haven't got my token yet!"
The teenager smiled, "I don't want your token anymore, these two buns are given to you by your brother." Although he had never seen the token of the Xiu Xianjie, just looking at what the little girl in front of him was holding, he felt that it was unusual. thing. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way out, she probably wouldn't have exchanged this kind of thing with him.
"Really acridine!" Hearing him give it to herself, the smile on Shu Xiaowu's face bloomed for a moment, but when she thought of a certain possibility, she felt that her behavior was wrong, "But, brother won't be because of this. Are you being blamed by the owner of the store?"
In her mind, the young man in front of her was scolded and abused for a while by the big-bodied and caring boss because of her two buns, and even staged a sad scene of punching and kicking. Thinking of this, she immediately bared her teeth and took a deep breath, some dare not take these two lovely bags again
The teenager was also amused by Shu Xiaowu's sudden facial expression, and his delicate face was drenched with warm brilliance, "You don't have to worry, the boss here is my father. Today, my father is ill, and I came here to help. And my father is friendly, I won't care about these two buns."
He was originally a scholar, but today was on a break, and his father was unwell, so he came to help. Moreover, both parents have good personalities, and they have helped many beggars who have left and fallen on weekdays. Over time, such a reputation spread, and the business in the store is also endless.
When Shu Xiaowu heard what he said, he immediately felt at ease.
"Thank you for the beautiful brother's bag I wish my brother a smooth study and a title on the gold list!" Shu Xiaowu guessed his identity after hearing his scrupulous tone and making some associations.
"Pretty" and "Brother's bag", the young man laughed and laughed. Looking at her with a bright smile on his face, he bowed to himself inappropriately and waved goodbye, but he still smiled and waved his hand to her.
After Shu Xiaowu said goodbye to the beautiful Baozipu brother, he trotted to the entrance of a quiet alley. Seeing that there were no wild dogs around who might be robbing her, he took a big bite of his bag. .
As soon as the thin-skinned and tender buns entered the mouth, the fragrance of the packaged buns rushed to the tongue, but the soup inside was obviously a little hot. After taking a big bite, it rushed in with a bit of boiling heat, provoking Shu Xiaowu. "Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh." Even so, she still didn't let go of the buns in her mouth, rubbed the edge of her mouth in small bites and swallowed it.
Although he was burnt, Shu Xiaowu was happy, with a mellow pink face full of contentment. The buns tasted as good as I remembered
Shu Xiaowu just turned his back to the alley, standing in the corner and enjoying the delicious bag with a contented face, eating from the skin to the filling, and then to the skin, and soon, a big bag was swallowed by her.
Looking at the other bag in the oil-paper bag that was still hot and pretty, Shu Xiaowu swallowed again, feeling that her stomach was more than half full, she felt that it was an invitation to continue to enjoy it no matter how she looked at it. eh
In the end, she decided to kill it too! Anyway, she's a demon, so she won't be broken, right?
As soon as he grabbed the bun with both hands, Shu Xiaowu took the first bite happily, and heard a hesitant voice behind him.
"Spirit Lord?"
This voice is not familiar to Shu Xiaowu at all, but the distance between the other party and her is really not far away. Even according to the inertia, she should look back and see if the situation is right?
So, she turned her head... So, she was frightened by this very close person!
"Ah! The monster wow..."
Shu Xiaowu didn't care about anything, dropped everything in his hands in shock, turned around and ran away.
Hey, what did she see? A person with green hair and green eyes, and a green clothes (?)... She just glanced at that face, and she felt that he must not be a person. Wow He looks too beautiful, doesn't he?
The face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, like the flowers of spring dawn, the temples are like a knife, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the face is like peach petals, the eyes are like autumn waves... The whole person is like a flawless beautiful jade cast into a jade person, even standing there quietly, It is also full of beauty, which can not help but reverie.
There is no trace of charm on his body, and his emerald green eyes are so pure that they do not contain any distractions or tackiness, and they are so gentle that they seem to be able to accommodate everything, just like the clear lake water with microwaves under the spring sun, which makes people unable to help being immersed in addiction. Because of his clean charm... However, Shu Xiaowu knew that this must be an appearance, but just looking at his green body from head to toe, Shu Xiaowu's heart jumped out in shock.
Where did this monster come from, don't eat people, ahhh, don't eat monsters?
Aoki looked at the little girl who ran away in a flash, but didn't chase after him. He suddenly felt the breath of a spirit master before, so he followed her and saw her.
But when he saw it up close, he wasn't sure. The breath on her body was so weak that even all he could see was a very shallow layer of black aura lingering on her body. He was certain that it was magic.
Spirit Master, how could it be contaminated with demonic energy? This deepened his denial.
The familiarity revealed from her still made him ask... However, she seemed to be frightened by her appearance.
Picking up the cyan token that fell on the ground and the bun he took a bite, Aoki got up and tried to call the girl who ran away at a high speed, but she was obviously frightened by herself, and she had already ran away from the end of the alley. .
Aoki looked at the object in his hand and opened his mouth dumbly, at a loss. I wanted to give her the things back, but I was worried that I would scare her away again.
When Meng Yan came over, he saw Aoki a token in one hand and a bun in the other, hesitating and not knowing what to do.
When he saw the token, his eyes flashed, and the token of the inner disciple of Xuanqingzong fell here, so who was the person who was here before?
Meng Yan walked to his side, raised his hand, Aoki's long blue hair turned black, and even a pair of eyes became as pure as ink.
"What, have you found someone?" He gently pulled his lips, even if he already knew the answer, it didn't prevent him from asking.
Aoki looked at her black hair, her face drooping down in frustration, "The girl just now doesn't seem to be the spirit master... Besides, she was frightened by me and lost something, and now everyone is gone."
Aoki felt a little guilty, because he was impatient and forgot to cover up, so he appeared in a prototype state, which scared the other party.
"Don't worry, she can drop this thing, it must not be her thing."
If it can fall off her body, then this token must have been lost. Then, even if someone from her stayed, he wouldn't return it so easily. Besides, didn't she run away?
Meng Yan said, stretched out his hand and took down the bun that was missing a corner in his hand, and greeted a stray dog who happened to pass by, watching the stray dog dragging the bun with "Ouch", and watching them all guardedly, lest they would marry him. It scrambled to run away with its tail tucked in. Meng Yan scolded "white-eyed wolf" in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face.
Seeing Aoki's guilt still lingering, Meng Yan smiled lightly, put her hand on his shoulder, wrapped her body around him, and brought the two closer together, so close that their breaths could not be separated.
"Don't think about her. If she comes back, we will give this back to her. If she doesn't get it back, then this thing must not be important to her, and Aoki has no need to feel guilty any more." Aoki is simple, for the world His emotions have always been ignorant, and it was his luck to meet him.
After Meng Yan finished speaking, seeing that Aoki had agreed with her statement, she immediately smiled softer, and her light brown pupils were filled with pampering. Moving his hand, he was about to take the token that Aoki was holding, but an abnormality occurred.
The rising azure light poured out from the moment he approached. Although the azure light was not strong, it also prevented him from approaching.
Meng Yan retracted her hand, and the smile on her face suddenly solidified.
This token is not ownerless, so is the previous girl really the one Aoki is looking for?
"Meng Yan, what's wrong?" Aoki was also very surprised by the sudden situation. When he picked it up from the ground before, there was no such abnormality at all.
Meng Yan took away the stiffness on his face, and showed a relaxed smile. The hand on his body was slowly lowered, and it was wrapped around Aoki's waist, almost imprisoning him in his own space.
"It's alright, but it seems that we don't need to wait for the girl. Its real owner will be found soon... After that, we will continue to go south according to the previous itinerary, and I will accompany you all the time."
Looking at Aoki with a agreeable smile, he involuntarily flipped the token in his hand, as if rejoicing at the coming of its master, and at the same time excited to continue looking for his master, the curvature of the corner of Meng Yan's mouth was slightly shallower, Looking at his side face, his eyes became deep.
Since he appeared by his side, how could he help him find a chance to escape?
