I relied on the system to cultivate immortality, and my magic power is boundless from now on
Chapter 2 West of the City
Chen Qiu's face turned red with embarrassment. She nodded to the old man, "Um... well, can you give me something to eat first? I, I don't have any energy."
"Okay, do you need me to help you?"
When Chen Qiu heard this, he quickly shook his head, "It's okay, it's okay, I can do it."
She was also afraid that the old man would come to help her, so she quickly got up and staggered to follow her.
The distance was not too far, so Chen Qiu followed the old man to the noodle stall. She asked Chen Qiu to sit and wait, and then went to cook noodles for Chen Qiu.
While waiting for the meal, Chen Qiu began to look around here. Starting from the city gate she just entered, there was a long street with low houses on both sides of the street. In front of the houses were various small stalls. The old man's face The stall is at the very edge, with a big piece of cloth held up by long wooden sticks. The stove, desk, water tank and all kitchen utensils, flour and various ingredients and seasonings are inside. There are two tables outside, and the old man is busy alone. With.
Chen Qiu never thought that the scene she could only see in TV series before was now in front of her. She stared at the scene in front of her in a daze until the old man came over and placed it in front of her.
"Eat quickly and help me wash the dishes after you're done."
The old man was about to leave after saying this, but Chen Qiu stopped her, "Auntie, I came here to escape. I saw Yicheng written on the city gate. What are the customs and customs of Yicheng? I don't know much about it. I want to find something to do, but I don’t know where to go, and I’m afraid of bumping into some big shot. Please help me.”
The old man glanced at her with such surprise in his eyes, "No wonder!"
She sat across from Chen Qiu and said, "This is the border of Shu. Recently, many people I have never seen before have come to Yicheng. They come out wearing rags like you, and there are also a few people wearing Chinese clothes. I have seen those people, they are all flying in the sky. I also heard from the soldiers guarding the gate that monsters have appeared near Yicheng. Those people were invited by the city lord. After all, Yicheng is too It’s so remote, the King of Shu won’t send troops here, and even if they come, they won’t be able to defeat us!”
"This is close to the Changchun Sect." Halfway through, the old man approached her and his voice became much softer. "Some people say that people from the Changchun Sect can fly. They are gods. I also think they are gods. Otherwise, how can people fly? .”
Chen Qiu also lowered his voice, "Can you fly? Is it so powerful? So you can't mess with it, right? I remember, what else is there?"
"Yes, keep your voice down. Don't let the gods know that we are talking about others. We will be punished." Seeing that Chen Qiu's voice was very low, the old man nodded with satisfaction and said: "In addition to the city lord, the big shots in Yicheng also have those gods who occasionally appear. , just like Zhenbao Pavilion in the east of the city and Tongda Bank in the south of the city, you can't mess with those people. If you want to find a living, go to the west of the city, there is a lot of work there."
"Oh, by the way, ordinary people like us should not go to the east of the city. The city lord's palace and the rich people are there. If you mess with them, your life will be worse than death!" After the old man said that, he stood up and looked at Chen Qiu. He ate the empty noodle bowl and motioned for Chen Qiu to follow, "Follow me."
Chen Qiu followed the old man with bowls and chopsticks, but he was thinking about another thing.
The original owner was caught by the monster because he ran into the deep mountains and old forests. The protagonist's team should have been nearby and rushed over so quickly. However, the original owner was too seriously injured and could no longer be saved. The old man just said that there are many people who can fly recently. The people who come to Yicheng should be from the Changchun Sect, so the protagonist should be in the city at this time. So as long as she stays in the city and doesn't go to the deep mountains and old forests, doesn't she have to do it?
Having made up his mind, Chen Qiu happily started washing the dishes.
In the evening, the old man took Chen Qiu in for the night. Early the next morning, Chen Qiu went to the west of the city. There was a large open space in the west of the city. There were wooden signs as tall as one person on the open space. Next to the open space, there was a short house. , there were always people coming in and out. Chen Qiu observed from the side and found that someone was always tearing off pieces of paper from the wooden signs and taking them into the short house.
Chen Qiu followed the example of others and came to the wooden sign. There were small strips posted on the wooden sign.
Collect: thirty hibiscus flowers, sixty-five silver coins
Collection: five Purple Star Grass, one White Dewhead, three Qiuling Flowers, five gold coins
Personal: Go to the east of the city and get the underpants from Boss Zhang’s bookstore clerk for one gold coin.
Purchase: A box of agar powder, three hundred silver coins
Purchase: A portion of willow leaf cake from Chengdong Pastry Shop, twenty-five silver coins
Personal: A handkerchief from the proprietress of Tongda Bank, five hundred silver coins
Chen Qiu stood in front of the wooden sign. These various tasks seemed familiar to him for no reason, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen them before.
To be honest, these tasks made Chen Qiu feel a headache. She didn't know the collection ones, she had no money for the purchase ones, and the personal ones...it was simply hard to describe!
In addition to the trousers and handkerchiefs, she also saw the bellyband of the courtesan of Zhaixinglou, the insoles of the maiden's family in the north of the city, and the like.
Chen Qiu felt that no normal person would accept these tasks, so she turned to another wooden sign and looked at it for a long time, feeling that there were tasks that would be suitable for her.
Personal: Take Wang Xiaoya from the south of the city to Chen's house in the north of the city, one hundred silver coins
Without thinking, Chen Qiu pulled off the note and walked towards the short house.
Entering the room, it was not very empty. In front of the row of walls facing the door was a very long table. There were four or five tables and chairs on both sides of the table, as if for people to rest their feet. Behind the long table stood three people evenly spaced. Personally, the wall behind them also has tasks like those on the wooden sign outside, but the ones on the wall are all in one piece.
Chen Qiu walked over with the note in hand, waiting for the person in front to finish. When it was his turn, he walked up and handed the note to the guy behind the desk.
"Personal mission, after finding the target and delivering it to the designated location, someone will settle the matter." The man glanced at Chen Qiu's note, pulled out a big notebook from somewhere, scratched something on it, and returned the note. Chen Qiu shouted: "Next one."
Before Chen Qiu could say anything, people from behind had already squeezed in. Chen Qiu was pushed to the side before he could react.
She was stunned for two or three seconds, then turned around and walked out.
Asking people all the way to the south of the city, which was similar to the north of the city, she even saw the characters "Tongda Bank", but Chen Qiu didn't know what Wang Xiaoya looked like, so she could only ask them one by one.
Finally, the proprietress of a rouge stall told her that the Wang Xiaoya Chen Qiu was looking for was at the south gate of the city. Chen Qiu said thank you and wanted to leave. However, the proprietress who was still smiling suddenly lost her smile and said in a cold voice: "Guest Don’t you want to buy some rouge and gouache?”
Chen Qiu glanced at her in surprise, then gave her an ugly smile, "Sorry, I, I don't have any money."
Hearing this, the landlady frowned and rolled her eyes at Chen Qiu, "Go ahead, why don't you ask if you don't have money!"
Chen Qiu had no choice but to walk away awkwardly. When walking to the south gate of the city, Chen Qiu lowered his head and took another look at the tattered clothes and open-toed straw sandals. It was a bit strange. She was dressed like this and he asked her to buy something. It was really Can't you see that she is a beggar?
Fortunately, Chen Qiu didn't hesitate for long. Hearing the shouts on the road, he walked to the south gate of the city. There was indeed a little girl looking around standing by the gate. She seemed to be about the same height as her.
Chen Qiu walked up to her and asked, "Wang Xiaoya?"
The girl looked at her for a long time, then nodded, "Yes, I am."
"Let's go then, I'll take you to Chen's house."
