The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the stone streets of the old town into a charming orange red.
Yun Song stepped on it, vaguely seeing the ripples of the years.
As the name suggests, the town is old enough.
Accompanied by Wang Youde, he proudly introduced: "The history of our old town is extremely long. If the records of our ancestors are correct, the town was established during the reign of the Ying family in the Dalong Dynasty."
"It has been ups and downs for nearly two thousand years. No matter who was the emperor outside the mountain before and who is the commander-in-chief now, our old town has always stood here."
Yun Song listened silently.
What is the Great Dragon Dynasty?
He did know the Ying family, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng, but he remembered that Ying Zheng's surname was Zhao.
The scale of the old town is not very large, and there are two streets crookedly surrounded by mountains and rivers, all of which are paved with bluestone slabs.
There are various styles of houses along the street, including newer brick houses, antique wooden buildings, and stilted buildings with novel shapes.
With the two main streets as the core, there are many small alleys around it.
Most of the alleys are one-story houses, scattered and dotted.
As the saying goes, although a sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, all the shops that should be in a small town are all available, and the business opportunities are active¡ª¡ª
In front of the restaurant with the signboard of "Baijinglou", there is a waiter in a bunt with a white towel on his shoulder, greeting the guests: "Sir, you are here, the private room on the second floor has been reserved for you"
There are all kinds of pills, ointments, dried herbs, snake scorpions, dried toad skins, and animal bones. Outside the pharmacy, there are apprentices yelling: "The medicine king passed down the strong man's prescription, and men and women use body sticks; I have seen newspapers on the radio, The Council of Nations called it good"
Someone in a stilted building is yelling 'there are good foreign paper cigarettes', there is a sign outside the window of a pastry shop that says 'Western Assorted Cakes', and there is a bookstore named 'Zaobao Wenzhai' listing all kinds of ideas Books, newspapers and periodicals
In addition, there are people who shave their heads, play monkeys, sell wild medicine with a red cloth, and shout "sharpen scissors, cut kitchen knives", and pass by a small alley shouting "hurry up and call Wang Po to deliver the baby." 'of.
Regardless of Wang Youde's poor performance in Taoist temples and beheading villages, he is very stylish when he arrives in the town.
As soon as the three of them entered the town, someone greeted them proactively.
Walking all the way from the main street, the people who greeted him continued all the way.
Wang Youde responded very reservedly. When he seldom opened his mouth, he mostly nodded his head, and some of them walked over without looking directly.
The big elephant took a few steps back consciously, carefully avoiding pedestrians coming and going.
But he had a lot of dry wood on his back, and he was clumsy so as not to scratch people's clothes or shops.
Impatiently, Wang Youde wanted to send him away.
Yun Song couldn't see it, and said: "Fusheng is the supreme god, Wang benefactor, you promised to invite others to dinner, but you didn't keep your word, and you will go to hell with your tongue pulled out after death!"
Wang Youde was stunned, and said: "Little real man, tongue-pulling hell is a Buddhist theory, what does it have to do with your Taoists?"
Yun Song didn't expect this guy to question himself.
But he reacted quickly, and said with a sneer: "Our Taoists are going to ascend to the nine heavens to become immortals. You unbelieving sinners still want to have something to do with our Taoists? What, you are chasing relatives?"
Wang Youde was blocked by him and had nothing to say, so he had no choice but to say to the big stupid elephant: "Throw away all these dry firewood, do you still want to take me home?"
The big stupid elephant said in a daze: "It's not easy to go to the door of the mayor's house empty-handed for the first time, thinking about using firewood as a gift."
Wang Youde was blocked again, so he had no choice but to say: "Okay, the master has received your presents, you can throw them away¡ªit just so happens that there is my grocery store here, so you can put all the firewood here."
Yun Song looked up, and there was a plaque of "Hefangxing Global Department Store" hanging on the second floor of a nearby store.
He was startled by the store name: "Universal Department Store?"
Wang Youde said with a reserved smile: "That's right, my shop has foreign fire from Japan, foreign wax from Flangji country, hemp rope from Lijiapo country from Nanyang, and foreign silk stockings from Amei You Niang country, so it's called that." .¡±
Yun Song asked: "Are there any world history books?"
Wang Youde said: "Not here, I have them at my house, "Twenty-two Histories" and "Historical Records" are all there, and I will give you a few copies to the little real person tonight."
Yun Songji bowed first: "Fusheng is supreme."
Wang Youde's mansion was not on the main street. He led Yun Song around the street, and then detoured north to a big mansion at sunset.
&sp; Wang Youde turned his head and signaled: "Lianlian, I will meet the Taoist priest soon."
The girl smiled shyly and timidly at Yun Song, and said, "Master Daoist, my maidservant greets you."
Yun Song felt that his brother's defense line was on the verge of collapse, so he said decisively: "Fusheng is supreme, the Taoist is pure-hearted and devoted to the Tao, Wang benefactor, you should take this female benefactor back, Xiaodao is going to rest. "
Wang Youde said in astonishment: "What do you mean by this little real person? What does your cultivation have to do with this baby?"
He pointed to Lianlian's arms.
Lianlian raised her hand, carefully holding a copper tube with an elbow.
Wang Youde is an old man, so he naturally understands what Yun Song said just now.
He laughed teasingly and said: "Young real man, you see, our earthly world is different from many things on your mountain, we are prone to misunderstandings, what happened at the door just now was a misunderstanding, now"
When Yun Song saw this copper-skinned elbow tube, he knew that things were bad, and he misunderstood what Wang Youde said.
But he can't be blamed, Wang Youde deliberately misled him, and he probably wanted to use this to explain the fact that the housekeeper scolded the big stupid elephant but was taken over by him.
But the previous misunderstanding is the reason for him to pretend to be cold in the future. This is the meat he ate in his mouth, and he still wants him to spit it out?
He immediately answered: "There is no misunderstanding, Xiaodao has seen the gadgets in Miss Lianlian's hands a long time ago."
"Xiaodao is dedicated to Taoism, and it is this kind of gadget that I want to reject. It is a strange skill, and it is not tolerated for me."
Wang Youde thought he was trying to save face, so he smiled and said: "But does the little real person know what this baby is? You listen to me first and then finish"
"Of course Xiaodao knows," Yun Song continued to stop him, "If Xiaodao didn't know, how could he hastily reject Wang's benefactor's kindness?"
"This is a flashlight, a Western gadget. There is a light bulb and something called a battery inside. Turn on the light to emit light, and turn off the switch to turn off the light."
In order to avoid that the name of the flashlight in the old town is different from that on the earth, he simply pointed out the function of the flashlight.
Wang Youde was speechless.
He really wanted to push Lianlian to Yunsong.
The feeling of pretending to fail is not good!
Yun Song closed the door with a calm attitude, and said: "The Xiaodao cultivates the sun in the day and the yin in the night. I have already trained my eyes so that I can see things at night. I don't need such strange skills and ingenuity of Westerners."
"Also, Xiaodao is about to practice, please benefactor Wang, tell your family members not to disturb Xiaodao again."
Wang Youde left dejectedly, and stuck to Lianlian's ass.
Yun Song stretched out his finger dipped in saliva and opened a piece of window paper, looked at their backs until they disappeared, envious to the point of separation: "Sexy man!"
Make sure there is no one outside.
He went back to the bed and took out a Juyin Dan silver coin, pricked his finger with a needle, squeezed out a little blood and painted it on.
The black silver coin suddenly turned into a black lacquered pill.
About the size of a lollipop candy.
This is Juyin Pill.
It was cold in the hands, and even the air in the room began to cool down.
Yun Song is overjoyed, this thing is an air conditioner!
However, the chill exuded by Juyin Pill comes from Yin Qi, and when it appears in the air, it will continue to volatilize to produce Yin Qi, so it is usually sealed with wax pills.
Yun Song glanced at it twice, took out a potter's wheel and squeezed out a drop of blood, and turned into a ghost again.
After becoming a ghost, everything he saw changed:
The room became chaotic and fuzzy, and the shapes of the tables, chairs, and walls were no longer so clear and fixed.
On the contrary, Juyin Pill was pleated and glowing, emitting a silvery white light.
