Kneeling and begging the ancestors to be a good man

Chapter 28 Longevity Association [05] Two bowls of ice powder, providing clues
"Boss Jiang?"

Mo Qing's tone was full of jokes.

After looking at her playfully for a while, Jiang Ke shifted his center of gravity slightly back, stretched his left leg forward, and stretched the posture to distance himself from her.His thin eyelids drooped slightly, and he said, "31 catties, pay in cash."

"Can I swipe my card?" Mo Qing took out the black card that Jiang engraved for her.

Jiang Ke's expression was dull: "This service is not provided."

Mo Qing flipped his wrist and threw the bupleurum back to the booth.

She didn't leave, but raised her chin slightly, looked at the cloth bag at Jiang Ke's feet, and said, "I'm buying poly-yuan powder."

She knows polyyuan powder.

She also knew that he had Juyuan powder.

Catching her sight and intention, Jiang Ke's eyes flashed with surprise, and after a slight pause, he replied: "No."

"I can smell it." Mo Qing said very firmly.

dog nose.

The corners of Jiang Ke's lips twitched, and just as he was about to speak, a man with a big arm and a round waist suddenly came over, shouting "Leave a way, don't get in the way—" and stretched out his hand to push Mo Qing.

Before he could touch Mo Qing, Jiang Ke threw his hand at the man, holding a piece of Gastrodia elata, and hit the man's wrist. The man screamed in pain and quickly took his hand back.

The man glared at Jiang Ke: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Ke didn't give him a look, and took a Maza from the side to make room for a piece of land.

He said to Mo Qing, "Come here."

Seeing this, Mo Qing didn't hesitate much, clapped his hands, then got up slowly, and walked around to Jiang Ke from the side of the stall.Then, he sat down on the Maza in a big way.

Seeing this scene, the man wondered what kind of prestige a vendor would show off, but he had something to ask, so he resisted the fuss: "I want—"

Jiang Ke interrupted him: "Not for sale."

The two words irritated the man.

"Shameless, don't you believe it or not, I dumped you—"

The man rolled up his sleeves, but he glanced at Mo Qing's ankle suddenly, and his eyes froze.

He suddenly became flustered, licked the corners of his dry lips, then looked at the two in silence for a few seconds, then bowed his head and left.

Mo Qing noticed the look in his eyes, but he didn't know why he was scared all of a sudden. Looking at his running back, she asked Jiang Ke: "What's wrong with my tattoo?"

"He thinks you are a member of the Longevity Society." Jiang Ke's eyes were bright, and he gave Mo Qing an accurate answer, "He is an errand of the Longevity Society, and he came to the underground market to buy Juyuan powder."

Mo Qing had already heard from Song Yiyuan that the Longevity Society was buying Juyuan fans.

The Longevity Society has something to do with her tattoo, and the Gathering Powder has something to do with her secret recipe. She has to investigate both of these things.

An old man in his sixties walked by carrying a pole, wearing a bamboo hat, with two wooden barrels hooked on the left and right under the pole on his shoulders. He yelled "ice powder" and "tofu nao".

Mo Qing took a look.

Jiang Ke suddenly said, "Two bowls of ice powder."

"okay."

The old man agreed, and stopped in front of their booth carrying a load. He quickly uncovered a wooden barrel, held two plastic bowls in one hand, and scooped ice powder and seasoning into them with the other hand.

Not long after, he handed over two bowls of ice powder.

Jiang Ke took out money from the bag at his feet and gave him two bowls of ice powder, one of which was handed to Mo Qing: "Do you want to eat?"

This picture is really weird.

The old street has dilapidated bricks and tiles, mottled walls, constant hawking and noise on the street, and the vitality of the market is everywhere.

Jiang Ke, who was supposed to be out of place here, is now wearing a dilapidated bamboo hat made of oiled paper, and cheap and plain long clothes and trousers. He sits on a horse and hands over a bowl of ice powder.

In him, you can't see the dignity and coldness of the Mo family when you first met, and you can't see the indifference and restraint when you were in his house. He seems to be a different person, and his breath perfectly blends with this street without any abruptness.

Mo Qing questioned again: "Your brain really—"

"..."

Jiang Ke raised his eyebrows, put away his easy-going and idle attitude, and directly took the ice powder back.

"Hey," Mo Qing changed his mouth, "Eat."

Jiang Ke handed over the ice powder again.

Mo Qing took the ice powder and took two bites with a small spoon. It was ice-sweet and tasted good.

She glanced at Jiang Ke beside him. He didn't have the etiquette and elegance at Jiang's table. He had one leg bent and the other stretched forward, holding a plastic bowl to eat ice powder, and his demeanor was casual and grand.

The sense of familiarity that caught off guard made Mo Qing startled again.

Withdrawing his gaze, Mo Qing lowered his eyes and continued to eat.

"What are you investigating Juyuan powder for?" Jiang Ke threw the empty bowl into the trash can not far away.

"Check the source." Mo Qing stirred the ice powder with a spoon, "Where did you get it?"

Facing her anti-client attitude, Jiang Ke glanced at her face: "Are you asking me?"

Mo Qing didn't answer and asked instead: "You are investigating the Longevity Society through the Gathering Powder, and you want to investigate my tattoo?"

Jiang Ke lightly touched her cheeks with the tip of her tongue, and looked over her eyebrows and eyes. After a long while, she said three words: "I'm happy."

"You're interesting."

Mo Qing commented slowly, without asking any more questions, and slowly ate the remaining half bowl of ice powder.

After she also threw the empty bowl into the trash can, Jiang Ke suddenly stood up, took off the bamboo hat, covered her head, and asked her condescendingly, "Let's go?"

The bamboo hat that was pulled down suddenly blocked his sight, and Mo Qing stretched out his hand against the edge of the bamboo hat, revealing a small half of his delicate face: "Where are you going?"

"Look for someone who sells my Juyuan powder."

Hearing this, Mo Qing was a little surprised.

Stretching her legs forward, Mo Qing kicked the fabric of the stall with the toe of her shoe, and asked, "Where is the stall?"

"Don't worry about it. Someone else's, rent it for a day."

Jiang Ke bent down to pick up the backpack, and found the gathering powder in a ziplock bag, the size of a palm, and threw it to Mo Qing.After that, he threw the backpack aside again.

Mo Qing opened the bag with her fingers, got some powder on the pad of her index finger, then passed it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it lightly, she frowned, twisted it with her fingers, then collected the gathering powder, and got up.

*
Dongshi City has been engaged in urban construction in recent years, and many old buildings have been demolished, and the city has a new look everywhere, but the West City has not been touched. The old houses are old, the walls are low, the moss is everywhere, and the alleys Like cracks spreading in an ancient building with a long history, irregular and intricate.

Walk along the main street of the market to the end, turn right into Xiyuan Street, and there is no bustling main street here. There are shops on both sides of the road, selling special products, souvenirs, groceries and the like.

Jiang Ke led Mo Qing around for a while and came to a grocery store.

"The medicine I bought here, the shopkeeper is an intermediary." Jiang Ke introduced, then looked back at Mo Qing.

Mo Qing was still wearing the bamboo hat, and his hair was messed up, with some broken hairs leaking out.She looked up at the signboard of the grocery store, her slender and graceful neck stretched out, the setting sun drew a line of light and dark on her face, her eyebrows and eyes were hidden in the shadows, her nose, lip and mandible were coated with warm light, and the tone of her thin lips was rendered vividly It's getting stronger.

Mo Qing lazily opened his mouth: "Can I ask?"

"Hard to say."

Jiang Ke said meaningfully, and walked in.

Those who do this kind of underground business, how can they be good people, their bones are getting harder and harder.

Mo Qing followed into the grocery store, the moment she entered, she saw a bundle of ropes hanging on the shelf, she took it down, untied the rope, and held one end.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the grocery store at the front desk saw Jiang Ke, and greeted him with a smile: "Isn't this Boss Jiang? Why are you here again..."

Mo Qing didn't let him finish the greeting.

With a shake of her hand, the rope in her hand flew towards the shopkeeper.

The next second, she approached suddenly and pushed the shopkeeper's shoulder. The shopkeeper was circling around with a rope around his waist several times.

After the shopkeeper stabilized, he saw the other end of the rope thrown towards the beam.In an instant, the shopkeeper realized something and wanted to open his mouth to beg for mercy, but it was too late, and the rope that went around the beam was caught by Mo Qing.

Mo Qing dodged and moved aside, pinched the rope and pulled hard, the shopkeeper was lifted off the ground and was suspended in mid-air.

"What is this for! Heroine! Put me down!"

The shopkeeper kicked his limbs in the air, but he didn't have a foothold, just like a frog at the mercy of others.

Mo Qing raised his leg and hooked the leg of the stool next to him, hooked it in front of him, and then sat down slowly.

Holding the hemp rope with only one hand, she stepped on the chair with her legs bent, her elbows resting on her knees.Lifting the bamboo hat, she looked at the shopkeeper whose limbs were thrashing endlessly, and said calmly, "Don't shout, I'll just ask you something."

　Bottle: normal handling.

　　Shopkeeper:? ? ? ?
