On the counter of one of the restaurants, I tapped the table with my ruler and said, "At that time, that snake monster was around twenty feet long. It had a red tattoo and was as thick as a water tank. Its fangs were dense, giving off a dark green light and a foul stench.
Little White transformed into a small dog and squatted on my shoulder. When I smelled it, I let out a few listless hissing sounds. It was very vivid, like a snake and python.
"Great Hero Gu, see this snake demon, the Nine-Ringed Great Saber's side .."
Little White made another series of "Ding Ling Ling Ling" sounds. It was extremely clear and won applause from everyone behind the screen.
".. ..." Just as he was about to bring his saber forward, he thought for a moment and said to himself, 'I might be able to die without a problem this time, but my mother is old and I am the only son, so what should I do?'
The parts of his heart that were struggling vividly displayed as his accent turned into the voice of an old woman, "Cough cough, child, where are you? You are not a match for the monster in the mountain. If something were to happen to you, how would I live .."
The voice was anxious, but it was also filled with fear and sorrow. It couldn't help but cause him to feel sad as he repeatedly sighed.
"When Great Hero heard his mother's voice, he panicked and quickly shouted," Mother, your son is fine, please don't come over! "
"Ah?" "Ah, where are you .."
All of a sudden, the old woman's sorrowful cries, Great Hero Gu's rough and urgent warning, and the snake and python's snake flicking their tongues and rubbing their bodies against the rocks of the mountain all came out very clearly, winning over the crowd's cheers.
".. .."
"Pah!"
I slammed the ruler on the table. "His mother saved Great Hero Gu, the furious Great Hero who was swallowed up by that python monster. At this moment, he is also severely injured, and the great blade that he is so proud of has been cut in half." The Great Hero smacked the table, "His mother saved Great Hero Gu, the furious Great Hero who was swallowed by that python. "Where to go from here, please listen to the next part." "
"Hu!"
As he removed the screen, he could hear the crowd below exhaling a long breath, and the tension in their hearts gradually dissipating. A person ran over from the side. He was the son of the owner of this restaurant. He was only 12 or 13 years old. He handed me a silver ingot and said childishly, "Sir, this is the reward for today."
"Thanks, Duan`er."
With a light tap of the bamboo cane in my hand, I slowly walked out of the restaurant. I zigzagged my way to a shabby thatched hut. I pushed open the door, revealing a table, a chair, and a narrow bed.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Just as he sat on the couch, he heard knocking on the door.
"Is it Aunt Zhang?"
"Hey, it's me, that couple from my family. Let me send you two steamed buns." It was a woman in her forties. Her voice was hoarse, but it was filled with kindness.
He received a plate with a smile and touched it. It was indeed four warm steamed buns. "Thank you, Aunt Zhang. Come, sit!"
"I won't be sitting down. Be careful of the heat, Jussi." After saying that, he turned around and left. He walked far away and whispered, "Sigh, tell me what sins you have committed in the heavens. Such a young man who is so nice is actually blind. Sigh .."
Aunt Zhang's family were all very kind, her husband was a paper man, he had a son who was in his twenties, he was filial, his family did business with the dead, in Xuancheng it was not much, but life was not very good either. The people around them all avoided their business, so they avoided them, but I did not care about these things anymore, and since I often chatted with them, they treated me very well.
"Jussi!"
"Lil 'White, didn't I tell you to stop talking? What if you scare someone else?"
"Jussi!" Little White said in dissatisfaction, "Are we going to live in seclusion here for the rest of our lives?"
"Isn't it good here? You can cultivate well, and don't need to worry about your life. See, I already said that I would use you to make money, and today I have made quite a bit of money. It's quite a big piece of silver, and in the future, you can help me make money and eat whatever you want to eat. "
Whitey snorted and unhappily jumped onto the table. It picked up a steamed bun and started nibbling on it. It said vaguely, "Scholar, then your eyes .."
I shook my head. "Let it be blind. There's no use in seeing it anyway .."
"Sigh, Jushi, do you think that the Southern Immortal Sect will send people over?"
"That might be the case. Even though half a year has passed without any news, this is the Chen Nation, and even this remote Xuan City is still in the territory of the Southern Domain Immortal Sect. It might just be a matter of time before we find us."
"Then, why do you still use the name 'White Fox Gentleman'? Don't you know how to change your face? Can't you just change your face? "
I sighed. "My life has changed too much. I don't want to change it anymore. It's just real. Is that not okay?" Perhaps there was still a sliver of hope left in my seemingly exhausted heart. I hoped that I could be found, break this tranquility, and see for myself the arrival of this chaotic world.
Lil 'White didn't say anything else and just jumped onto the bed and started snoring. I reached out my hand and the four buns disappeared. I smiled bitterly at this glutton.
I have been living in seclusion in Xuan City for half a year now. I have been relying on books to get some money every day to support myself. The spiritual energy has already been sealed by me, and I hope that there will never be a time to release it. But in fact, I myself know that I am not the kind of person who would be content to be lonely. Perhaps after a period of silence, I will once again enter society and search for those two people to write my own story.
Most of them know that there is a storyteller who tells stories that are extremely vivid and realistic, causing one to feel as if they were in a trance. Of course, the number of people who have come to visit my little thatched cottage has also started to increase, and most of them are merchants who trade with me. They are willing to pay a high price for me to tell books to help them liven up, but a lot of me have refused.
Back then, when I came to this remote Xuan City, I turned into an ordinary person. Using the few silver coins in the Universe Ring, I bought a dilapidated thatched cottage, added some furniture, and then brought Little White around to look for a place to talk about books and earn money to support myself. The current me will also be hungry, sleepy, and will slowly age.
Xuan City isn't big and there aren't many people here. However, the people here all know about the cultivators and the immortals, so they liked my stories about the demons and immortals. Therefore, it wasn't that difficult from the very start.
However, as a stranger, I came here to snatch the food from other storytellers. Naturally, I was greatly excluded, and only Immortal Drunken Wine, who was not far away from here, took me in. He gave me time to talk to him every day, so I earned quite a bit of my income.
"Immortal Drunken Wine's shopkeeper was a 50-60 year old old old man with the surname of Qian. However, Little White told me that the shopkeeper didn't seem old and looked very shrewd. He had once heard me talking about him on the streets and liked me very much, so when I was at my most helpless, he took me in.
In the evening, Shopkeeper Qian shakily came back with a jug of wine. Qian Duo`er's face was filled with helplessness as she dragged her son behind her.
"Jussi, come. Accompany me, accompany me for a drink!"
"Haha, Manager Qian, you're drunk."
"Not yet!" It was so painful that it caused him to "Ouch!" He seemed to have woken up a little, but after a while, he became muddle-headed again, "Jus, you, you didn't know I was the one who ran the restaurant. Tell me, how could I dare to open a restaurant without a bit of alcohol? "Huh?"
"Duan`er, come here, sit here and support Keeper Qian." I reached out and pushed the only chair, and Qian Duan'er quickly helped the stumbling cashier into it.
"Lil 'White, wake him up."
When Qian Duo`er heard this, she immediately ran out with her legs spread wide. Little White cried out in joy and jumped onto my shoulder. He then lifted his butt and farted loudly in front of Manager Duan's face.
"Oh, so smelly!" Shopkeeper Qian immediately covered his nose and mouth as he began to struggle in distress.
"Shopkeeper Qian, how is it? Are you awake?"
After fanning for a long time, the last bit of the stench finally dissipated. Manager Qian sighed deeply, "I wanted to run over to your side when I was drunk, but for some reason .. "Also, if you dare to use your fox to wake me up with wine again, I'll catch it and stew it!"
Little White let out a contemptuous little cry and jumped onto my shoulder, dozing off.
"Say, you've earned quite a bit of money, why are you still living in this crappy place?"
"I'm alone, why would I live in such a big land? "Although this thatched cottage is small, it is enough."
"Sigh, I can't beat you. Ah, tomorrow's segment. Now tell me about it!"
I shook my head and reached out my hand. "If you want to hear it now, I can. Ten taels of silver!"
"Ten taels!" Shocked, Shopkeeper Qian said, "I didn't expect a blind person like you to ask so much!" Forget it, it's better if I listen to it for free tomorrow. Let's go, I'll come see you next time .. Oh, that's right, I have drank half of that pot of wine, and the other half is for you. It's my Drunken Immortal Tavern's best wine, Immortal Drunken Wine, try it .. "
After hearing my joke, he liked to come to my place when he was drunk, but this is the first time, because he is very stingy, the storytellers in other places earn at least half the amount of silver compared to the restaurants, and there are even some who want to recruit me, but I can only take thirty percent of it here, but I can't use it that much, and I'm too lazy to bother about it. However, I really don't believe that this wine is any good wine.
Lil 'White jumped onto the table and twitched his nose. He picked up the jug of wine and took a sip, then smacked his lips.' Pui! 'He complained to me, "Jushi, he lied to you. This wine is at least sixty percent watered .."
I chuckled and shook my head slightly. Even Little White could drink it ..
