Chapter 163 Imperial Jade Wine
Xiao Junhe and Ling Xiyan couldn't help but find it a little funny when they saw Xiao Wanwan staring with her big eyes and a curious look on her face like a baby.
The two of them walked slowly along the street with their three children.
Xiao Wanwan looked at the bargaining vendors with curiosity. It turned out that the fairyland was not like the legendary heaven, but was no different from the lower world.
When her eyes fell on a small vendor's stall, the guqin that had been sleeping in her sea of consciousness suddenly trembled.
what happened?
Xiao Wanwan was startled, and her eyes fell on the stall in front of her again.
A rusty half-broken sword caught her attention, but Xiao Wanwan couldn't tell what was so special about the sword.
I just felt a different feeling in my heart when I saw this half of the sword.
If there is one thing that is eye-catching about it, it is the rust spots on the sword body that are out of place with the surrounding treasures.
Xiao Wanwan's eyes rolled around, and then she casually pointed at something on the stall.
"Father, I want this."
She had seen it before and there were many tips for buying things.
She first asked for something that looked more expensive, and then asked for the sword as a bonus.
The vendor of the stall was an old man in ragged clothes. He was half lying on the ground, resting his eyes leisurely.
Hearing someone talking in front of the stall, he remained motionless, as if he were soundly asleep.
"Boss, how much is this?"
Xiao Junhe pointed at the thing that Xiao Wanwan liked, which was a bead that was glowing brightly.
The colorful light was very beautiful as it turned, and he was not surprised at all that the little kid liked it.
Hearing someone asking for the price, the old man slowly opened his eyes and spoke slowly.
"The old man only sells the things on his stall to those who are destined to meet him. If he is destined to meet me, he won't take a penny. If he is not destined to meet me, he won't sell them for a fortune."
"Ha ha……"
Xiao Junhe chuckled and looked at the old man with some surprise.
"Interesting! Boss, what is a destined person? And what is a person without destiny?"
The old man smoothed his messy hair and spoke slowly.
"If you can answer my question correctly, then you are the destined person!"
Now even Xiao Wensheng and Xiao Shengsheng became interested. They squeezed to the front and asked excitedly.
"Boss, tell me, what's the problem?"
"Hey……"
The old man shook his head and let out a long sigh.
"I have waited for a thousand years, but I still haven't met the right person. However, if you are interested, I will tell you about it."
"Boss, tell me, tell me!"
Xiao Shengsheng was naturally boisterous, and seeing this scene, he became a little impatient.
"Hey……"
The old man sighed again, raised his head, half-closed his eyes and looked into the distance, speaking slowly.
"Palace Yu Ye Liquor!"
Xiao Wensheng and Xiao Shengsheng looked at each other with confusion on their faces.
What kind of problem is this?
“Uh… cough cough cough…”
Xiao Wanwan's heart skipped a beat, and she choked on her own saliva and started coughing violently.
Imperial Jade Wine!
What familiar words, what reassuring sentences.
She could hardly control her mouth and wanted to blurt out the answer.
Oh my god... Oh my god... Oh my god...
Did you meet a fellow villager?
Xiao Wanwan's heart was beating like a drum.
"What's wrong with Wanwan?"
Hearing her cough, Xiao Junhe and others looked at her.
"I'm fine! I'm fine!"
Xiao Wanwan shook her head repeatedly feeling guilty.
"I just choked on a sip of cold air."
Seeing that she was fine, they turned to look at the old man.
"Boss, what kind of question is this? It's incoherent."
Xiao Wensheng curled his lips and continued.
"My sister likes this bead of yours very much. Why don't you just name a price and we can buy it."
This was the first time his sister asked for something, so he had to satisfy her.
"Yes, Boss! Look, you're running a business like this. If someone likes your stuff, it's fate. Why bother with anything else?"
Ling Xiyan also advised gently that she couldn't bear to disappoint Wanwan with something she liked.
"Let's go! The old man has already said that if someone is destined to be with me, I won't charge a penny, but if someone is not, I won't sell it to you for a fortune."
The old man didn't seem surprised at all that they couldn't answer. He lay on the ground again, closed his eyes, and ignored them.
"Second Master Xiao, ignore that weird old man. Why don't you come and take a look at my stall?"
The vendor next door was no longer surprised by the old man's attitude and greeted Xiao Junhe warmly.
This person is a big shot in Tianyin City, and he would not easily come to a small stall like theirs to buy things.
Such people are always generous. If he likes something he has on sale, he will become rich this month.
Xiao Junhe smiled and nodded at the vendor next door. Seeing that the old man was determined to do what he wanted, he couldn't force him and could only coax Xiao Wanwan softly.
"Wanwan, father will take you to the Treasure Pavilion and pick out some rare and unique things for you."
"Ah."
Xiao Wanwan nodded obediently. She didn't know the old man's background and didn't dare to answer his questions rashly.
"Okay, let's go!"
Xiao Junhe reached out and patted Xiao Wensheng and Xiao Wanwan, then turned around and left with Xiao Wanwan in his arms.
At this moment, the guqin in Xiao Wanwan's sea of consciousness trembled again, and she could clearly feel the guqin's dissatisfaction.
This……
Xiao Wanwan secretly complained in her heart and was almost in tears.
What’s the matter? You live in my body without my consent, and you think you’re right?
If she could return to the real world and go to the hospital for surgery, she wondered if she could get the guqin out.
She decided to ignore Guqin's dissatisfaction, but Guqin continued to make a fuss.
A party was held in her sea of consciousness, and the chaotic music of the piano disturbed Xiao Wanwan.
Xiao Wanwan: ...
She leaned on Xiao Junhe's shoulder and shouted out in exasperation.
"One hundred and eighty cups!"
The old man who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed resting leisurely, heard the sudden shout and his whole body trembled violently as if he was electrocuted.
The next moment, his figure flashed quickly like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Xiao Wanwan.
Xiao Junhe's heart trembled. It seemed that this old man's cultivation was unfathomable and he was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Little kid, what did you just say? Say it again!"
The old man stared at Xiao Wanwan excitedly, with a hint of anxiety on his face.
"One...one hundred and eighty cups!"
Xiao Wanwan shrank back, hid in Xiao Junhe's arms, and said weakly.
“Okay…Okay!”
The old man spoke again with an ecstatic look on his face.
"Odd changes to even and stays the same!"
"Symbols look at the quadrants!"
The old man's eyes brightened again.
"Two eight two five six, two eight two five seven."
"Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty-one."
"That's right, they're all correct!"
The old man couldn't help but rub his hands with joy and looked at Xiao Wanwan.
"Little kid, there's one last one. Listen carefully: hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, and boron."
Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and neon
Xiao Wanwan blurted out without hesitation.
