Under his guidance, the carriage went around the corner and onto the Zhenhuai Bridge. There were still many people gathered on it. Only at the urging of the carriage driver did they make way for them.
They then crossed the stone bridge and headed to the other side.
The carriage passed through the streets and alleys, gradually moving away from the most prosperous area near the Qinhuai River. The number of pedestrians along the way gradually became sparse, and the shops on both sides also returned to their original simplicity, without the previous gorgeous decorations. Be simple and natural.
About half an hour later, the carriage entered a deserted street. Bai Xiaotian stopped, took Shen Luo out of the car and walked towards the street.
“In Jianye City, there are not many shops that can sell spiritual materials and elixirs needed by practitioners. Most of them are scattered in some inconspicuous corners of the city. If you don’t have an acquaintance to lead the way, , it is difficult for ordinary people to find it," Bai Xiaotian said while leading the way.
Shen Luo looked forward in the direction of Bai Xiaotian, and saw a row of shops in the corner not far away, sandwiching a small two-story attic with white walls and blue tiles. Very ordinary.
A wooden plaque with a black oily sheen hangs under the eaves of the door. There are fine cracks on it. At first glance, it looks like an old object. On it, ancient seal script is engraved with "Lu Bao". There are three big characters "Tang" and a line of small characters "Jianye Grocery Store" next to it.
At the door of the shop, there were two tall young men in black standing, guarding the left and right like two door gods.
Before Shen Luo and the two came closer, they heard a burst of noise coming from inside the shop.
He listened carefully and could vaguely hear a young voice coming out intermittently.
"Mr. Ma, just let your daughter follow me obediently. Even though she cannot be my wife, she can still be a beloved concubine..."
"Don't worry, I will be my wife." If you treat her well, you can be a happy father-in-law. Isn't it more comfortable than running this small shop?" Shen Luo heard this and frowned. This was obviously a bully. He had seen the standard version of raping a civilian girl in a story book before, but he never expected that he would actually encounter it in reality.
"Oh, I didn't expect that in broad daylight..." Shen Luo turned to look at Bai Xiaotian and swallowed back half of his words.
He only saw that Bai Xiaotian's entire face was darkened, and there was a suppressed unknown anger in his eyes, almost ready to burst out.
When Shen Luo was surprised at why Bai Xiaotian was so angry, he saw that he had already strode towards the door of the shop. The two young men in black at the door sensed something was wrong and had already come forward to greet him.
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Shen Luo quickly followed.
As a result, the two young men in black came to Bai Xiaotian, suddenly raised their fists and saluted, and respectfully called "Young Master".
Shen Luo raised his eyebrows, seeming to realize something.
I heard Bai Xiaotian curse "bastard" in a low voice., already in a flash, he rushed into the treasure-recording hall.
Shen Luo also hurriedly walked into the shop and saw a short, fat old man wearing a soft-horned turban and a plate collar leaning in front of the shop counter. He shrank back slightly, blocking the way. A young girl wearing a skirt.
The old man has a fair face, slightly drooped eyebrows, and a slightly splayed beard on his lips, with a sad look on his face.
The girl behind him is only fourteen or fifteen years old, with snow-white complexion, bright eyes and good eyesight, a beautiful nose and rosy lips, and bright red flowers dotted between her eyebrows. She is beautiful and lively.
In front of the two people, stood a young man wearing white brocade clothes, a white jade belt around his waist, and a carved jade crown on his head. He is a villain who bullies men and women.
It’s just that the young man looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was stroking his chin with one hand, looking completely funny and pretending to be mature.
"Bai Xiaoyun, you brat is itchy again, aren't you?" At this time, Bai Xiaotian suddenly shouted angrily.
The moment the young man in white heard Bai Xiaotian's voice, his expression suddenly changed. The hand under his chin was hurriedly retracted, but he didn't seem to know where to put it, and he looked a little confused.
"Brother...brother, why are you here?" The young man in white turned around and looked at Bai Xiaotian, shouting hurriedly.
"Why am I here? If I hadn't come, you wouldn't have dug a hole in the sky?" Bai Xiaotian was so angry when he saw him like this that he raised his eyebrows The sleeves are about to come forward.
Bai Xiaoyun suddenly looked like a mouse seeing a cat, covering his ears, showing a pitiful expression, and shouted: "Brother, don't pull your ears, don't slap your face."
< p>After saying that, he closed his eyes and looked like he was ready to be slaughtered.Bai Xiaotian raised his hand, slowly clenched it, and hit him on the forehead with a "dong" sound.
"Ah..."
Bai Xiaoyun screamed and immediately hugged his head, inhaling in pain.
Shen Luo looked on and couldn't help but smile.
Bai Xiaoyun noticed Shen Luo's reaction and did not dare to raise his head. He just looked at him sideways and glared fiercely.
Shen Luo's smile grew wider, and he raised his hand to stroke his chin, as if imitating the young man's previous domineering appearance.
This move immediately angered Bai Xiaoyun. Anger rose in his eyes. Just as he was about to raise his head, he ate another chestnut and was beaten down by Bai Xiaotian again.
This time the force was stronger. Bai Xiaoyun was so painful that he almost shed tears, but he did not dare to show any resentment towards Bai Xiaotian.
Shen Luo saw it and laughed secretly.
This young man seemed to be a bitch at first glance, but he was managed to be docile by Bai Xiaotian.
"Is this how our Bai family teaches you how to treat others? You still haven't apologized to Shopkeeper Ma and Miss Ma." Seeing that the young man became more honest, Bai Xiaocai gave a lesson.
“Brother, I’m just asking forMy dear, as the saying goes, a fair lady and a gentleman like to be arrogant, what's wrong with that? "Bai Xiaoyun muttered softly, not forgetting to glance at the girl hiding behind Shopkeeper Ma.
"You are still quibbling! "When Bai Xiaotian saw this, he became even more angry.
Bai Xiaoyun was holding his neck, still covering his ears with his hands, and said nothing.
" Shopkeeper Ma , I’m really sorry, it’s our Bai family who have neglected their discipline. I am here to apologize to you. "Bai Xiaotian sighed, had to clasp his fists and bow, and apologized to Shopkeeper Ma and his daughter.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..." Shopkeeper Ma said quickly.
The girl behind her blushed and said nothing.
"It's not my place to apologize. Mr. Ma... Shopkeeper Ma, I'm sorry, I was wrong, please forgive me. "Bai Xiaoyun suddenly tensed up, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth.
Seeing this scene, Shen Luo suddenly felt that this young man seemed to be interesting.
"Since it is a misunderstanding , there's no need to apologize, it's not a big deal..." Shopkeeper Ma wiped his sweat and said.
"Shopkeeper Ma has forgiven you, but that doesn't mean it will be fine. You go home first, I will come back later. Go find you. "Bai Xiaotian glared at Bai Xiaoyun and said.
Bai Xiaoyun said "Oh" without saying anything, turned around and left.
When he came to the door, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at Shen Luo, seeing the interested look on his face, a trace of anger suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"What are you looking at!" "Bai Xiaoyun scolded and walked away with two young men in black.
