Chapter 33 Map
In the evening, Nanhufang City.
Stall area.
The stooped Gou Mu skillfully gathered the miscellaneous books on the stall into the book box one by one.
These miscellaneous books just fill the book box.
Now in his fifties, he carries a box of books to the market every day to sell them.
It’s just that not many people are willing to buy his books.
But he seemed to be content with it.
Just when Gou Mu was struggling to carry the book box and was about to leave Nanhufang City as usual, a strong figure stopped him.
"I'm sorry, guest, the stall has already left. If you want to buy books, please come back early tomorrow."
Gou Mu bowed, showing a humble and flattering smile, but with his green bean-like eyes and rickety body, he would always be... People mistakenly think that this is a mouse that has become a spirit.
Unexpectedly, the figure lowered his voice and said: "Is there... that kind of book here?"
Gou Mu's eyes suddenly flashed with vigilance, but he smiled on his face: "What kind of book is the guest talking about?" Huh?"
"It's the kind with pictures..."
The strong figure made a gesture of tapping his thumbs together.
There was an ambiguous smile on his face that every man could understand.
When Gou Mu saw this, he immediately understood. He nodded and bowed and said, "Of course there is. What price does the customer want?"
At the same time, he quickly glanced at the other party again.
I saw this man who was tall and strong, with a beard, wearing the clothes of a handyman, and he looked very strange.
However, the other party's answer made him quickly let go of his vigilance.
"I want that book worth one hundred and seventy-two taels and three grains."
Gou Mu felt relieved and quickly replied according to the process: "I don't have such an expensive book, I only have twelve taels per book, do you want it? "
Cheaper! Can it be five taels?" the strong man said.
Gou Mu couldn't help but frown slightly: "They are all new styles, beautiful as jade, and the painting skills are very good, at least nine taels and five cents!" "Six taels!" "Nine taels and two cents!" "Seven taels!"
"
Nine taels
!
Two cents! If the customer doesn't want to buy it, please take it back."
Gou Mu showed a trace of impatience on his face.
The strong man hesitated for a while, and then said: "Can it be nine taels?"
"Sure!"
The deal was settled.
The strong man took out a black leather bag, held it reluctantly, and pressed it into Gou Mu's hand.
Gou Mu reached in and touched it, and soon smiled.
He immediately put down the book box, took out a book, found a book and handed it to the strong man, and then put the books back one by one.
What's strange is that there is obviously one book missing, but the book box is still full, no less!
The strong man who saw this scene showed a look of surprise.
However, Gou Muxuan just put his book box on his back and left in a hurry.
The strong man also stuffed the book into his arms and left Fangshi in a hurry.
There is no one around.
There is no need to be blinded, the strong man naturally reveals his true face.
It's Wang Ba!
But at this moment, his face looked aching.
"This crappy map actually costs nine spirit stones!"
"If this doesn't make me leave the sect, it will be a big loss!"
Wang Hao has always had a very clear understanding of himself.
He is just an ordinary handyman with no ability to protect himself.
Even if it can transport longevity, it has infinite potential, but the potential cannot be immediately transformed into the strength to stand in this world.
He needs time to realize this potential.
And this has a premise, that is, he must survive first.
But the feeling that Dongsheng Sect brought to him now was full of uncertainty.
Even the outer sect's top disciple, a core sect member who was regarded as a brand to the outside world, could suddenly die suddenly, let alone a small handyman like him.
Moreover, both shopkeeper Lu and the outer disciple named Zhao Feng had warned him.
Listen to others and eat enough.
Although leaving the sect means giving up the huge rare chicken resources and sufficient chicken feed without worrying about it, Wang Yan still decided to leave the sect!
It's just that it's not easy to join the sect, but it's even harder to leave the sect.
In the past few days, Wang Hao had made some inquiries in Fangshi, and finally had a certain understanding of the difficulty of leaving the sect.
Under normal circumstances, if there is no sufficient reason, even if a handyman in the sect wants to leave the sect to work, he must obtain the approval of the Foreign Affairs Office.
As for the handymen like Wang Yan who belong to the Ten Thousand Beasts House, they still need to be released from the Ten Thousand Beasts House.
But this alone is unrealistic.
Because Wang Yan raises chickens in Dingzizhuang, he is like a carrot and a pit.
What's more, there is only one person in Dingbaqi Village, Wang Yan.
This means that if Wang Hao leaves the clan, someone will need to replace him here.
But this is obviously unlikely.
Under normal circumstances, only people like Mr. Sun who are old and coming down the mountain, or who have requests to go out of the sect to purchase supplies, can make an exception.
And before leaving the sect, the sect will make some arrangements on him.
According to an unknown loudmouth, this was to prevent servants from spreading the sect’s secrets or its classics.
Wang Yan quite agrees with this view.
Otherwise, the Strengthening Body Sutra would not have gained such a great reputation outside the world, but the original copy has never been circulated to the outside world.
Of course, now it seems more like bait.
It seduces them, those who want to seek immortality, to work for the monks without any regrets.
In short, it is extremely difficult to leave the sect through normal means.
It would be even more impossible to leave the sect through abnormal means.
How much luck does it take for a mortal to avoid the monks' eyes and ears?
Of course, there are no absolutes.
Wang Hao had been working hard these days, but he actually found a way.
That is 'Rat Head Gou Mu'.
He is a descendant of a disciple of the sect. Although he is not a monk, it is said that he has the ability to dig into the ground. He can dig hundreds of feet underground, communicate with the inside and outside of the sect, and provide convenience for the servants and deacons to enter and leave the sect.
But he has a very strange rule.
That is, an underground tunnel can only be used once.
If you want to come back after leaving the sect, you will need to buy a map from him again.
vice versa.
In order to ensure that buyers make repeated purchases, all used tunnels will be destroyed immediately.
Although the price is astonishing, it still can't stand it. There are also many wealthy people among the handymen.
As a result, his reputation gradually spread among the handymen.
Of course, this reputation is limited to those who can afford it.
"I hope you won't disappoint me."
Wang Hao carefully opened the pages of the book.
Surprisingly, I discovered that this book is actually full of exciting and beautiful pictures.
Whether it's the subtle depictions or the bold and innovative proportions, it's eye-opening.
It's a pity that in order to let the roosters and hens mate smoothly, Wang Ba saw too many exciting things, which could not move him at all.
He flipped through the entire book without any hesitation, and finally found the right way to open the book.
The map is hidden on the red toes of the beauty in the painting...
