Chapter 34 Hawker
The banshee came quickly and left without muddling.

Sure enough, as she said, the two girls reminisced about the old days, talked a lot about the past at Qinchun Spring, and left in a hurry against the moonlight.

Wei Wu was confused, but when he came back with the pearl in his hand, his face was heavy, as if something important had happened.

"what happened?"

"I knew there would be today, but I didn't expect it to come so suddenly."

Knowing that the matter is of great importance, Zhuanzhu didn't pretend to be close, and confessed frankly to his master:

"Sister Jielin told me that Anyuan River God was furious when she learned that there was an eighth-rank water god born in the territory. At this time, the spies of the River God are probably on their way to the village."

"The crisis is coming, we have to prepare early." Lianzhu took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became firmer.

"???"

Suddenly wondering whether his memory of a certain period of time had been tampered with, Wei Wu listened to the two girls chatting the whole time, but the information he obtained was completely different from his own.

No longer entangled in the woman's heart like a needle in the sea, Wei Wu stroked his chin and said:
"It seems that there will be distinguished guests coming soon, we have to make preparations early."

……

Two days later,
The village, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly became bustling. A short peddler led two mules and horses, and came to Kou Village loaded with Linlang's goods.

After the busy farming season, the villagers took their children and surrounded the vendors.

"Hey, why did you change this time?"

"Awei is ill, this time I will run for him."

"Selling, here are two taels of coarse salt and two balls of thread."

"So cool~"

"Seller, bring some vinegar and tea, I'll exchange new rice for..."

"Okay, wait a minute, ten catties of rice for one tael of vinegar or five qian tea, how much do you want?"

"Well, give me some salt instead..."

"Father, I want to eat candied haws~"

"I don't sell candied haws here."

"Then do you have shortbread?"

"nor"

"Neither this, nor that, what on earth do you have?"

"I'm a grocer, not a treasure chest. If I want to eat candied haws and shortbread, I have to go to the county town."

Disappointment was written on Wei Tao's face, and he looked at his father pitifully. The latter looked helpless and could only coax:

"Study hard, and when the county examination is held next year, Daddy will definitely buy you candied haws."

Wei Tao looked distressed: "The county test, it will take a long time."

"Then add another bag of shortbread."

Wei Tao couldn't help but swallowed, and said with difficulty: "Then let's say it like this, we gentlemen have a word..."

"A word is settled!"

After coaxing the child, Wei Changsheng carefully looked at the package on the donkey's back, as if he wanted to see through the cloth to see what goods were hidden inside.Unable to come up with an answer, he could only ask directly:

"Do you have a mousetrap here?"

"Mousetrap?"

The shopkeeper was obviously taken aback, as if he hadn't expected that there would be a demand for mousetrap in this remote and remote place.He shook his head:

"I didn't bring it this time, how much do you want? I'll bring it to you when I come back next time."

Wei Changsheng pondered for a moment, and said, "Why don't you come to ten first~"

"Ten??"

Even though he was prepared, the vendor was still taken aback when he heard Wei Changsheng's request.

He did enough homework before going out, knowing that this village is a little different from other surrounding villages, it is an extremely rare and wealthy village.

But when Wei Changsheng asked for ten mousetraps, he knew that he still underestimated the village.

Rat traps are different from ordinary objects. They contain gold and iron and hidden secret mechanisms. They cannot be made by ordinary craftsmen, and they are expensive.

In the county, only rich families usually buy them, but someone in this village wants to buy ten...

"Ten mousetrap...that requires a deposit first."

The two negotiated the amount of the deposit, and just when Wei Changsheng was about to pay, a strange voice came from beside his ear.

"Little shopkeeper, do you accept goods here?"

The two followed the reputation and saw that the person who came was a young man with strange clothes. At first glance, this young man seemed ordinary, but the more he looked at it, the more he looked at him, and he couldn't help feeling a little good feeling in his heart that he didn't realize.

Wei Changsheng has been in the village for some time, and he claims to know most of the villagers, and a few of them have acquainted with each other more or less.

But he had no memory of the young man in front of him, as if he had suddenly emerged from a stone.

The peddler glanced at Wei Changsheng, saw that he didn't speak or pay, and was just watching the situation, so he turned to look at the new customer.

"Accept, why not accept, what goods do you have?"

"Do you want the mouse to fuck you?"

As he spoke, the young man took out a dried mouse from his pocket and silently placed it on the peddler's scale.

Looking at the shriveled mouse on the weighing pan, the peddler couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly, and almost couldn't help cursing.

"I don't accept rats here. If you really want to sell them, maybe you can go to the cat demon site. Those cats like these gadgets the most."

"However, you only have one mouse, the number is pitiful, and I'm afraid you can't get back half of the steamed bun money."

"Oh..." The young man was thoughtful, turned around and pulled out a large package from behind and placed it in front of the peddler.

"Hey, I don't have anything else here, but the rats are enough, why don't you take a trip to the cat monster's land for me..."

"You mean to let me put aside my good business and make a special trip for you?" The peddler's expression changed and he said displeased.

The young man said with a smile, "you can be taught, go and come back quickly, and your benefits will be indispensable."

"So, you came here specially to find fault?"

The peddler's face was as heavy as water, he could tell that this weird young man in front of him was not here to sell things, he was clearly here for himself.

This is the first time I have come here, and I have never caused trouble, so I ruled out the revenge of the enemy first.

'Could it be...'

With a thought in his heart, he thought of a possibility, and all the hairs on his body stood on end at the same time.

The atmosphere on the scene gradually became dignified.

Wei Changsheng, who was watching from the sidelines, looked at Wei Wu who was carrying the big bag thoughtfully, and then found that his sight was gradually stretched, and he came to a position far away from the two of them.

The two who were obviously smiling and angry were within reach in front of him, but they seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall.

The young man's expression remained unchanged, and the smile on his face grew stronger:
"Obviously it was you who came to me with all these troubles, so why bite back?"

As soon as the words fell, an invisible aura emanated from the young man.

The peddler suddenly found that the young man's body was getting bigger and bigger, and his body gradually became tall and straight, standing in front of him like a majestic mountain.

And he was like a little ant blocking the mountain, even if a piece of stone fell from the mountain, he would crush himself to pieces.

The peddler swallowed his saliva. At this moment, he finally came to his senses. He had run into a great god without realizing it.

He subconsciously wanted to back away, but found that no matter how hard he tried, his legs felt as if they were bearing a thousand catties, and he couldn't move at all.

The peddler's expression changed drastically, and he said sternly, "I'm a member of the Touring Chamber of Commerce, the gods must think carefully about the consequences of offending us traffickers and pawns!"
