Omniscient and Almighty

   Chapter 776 Consumption

   After the story was told, the crowd dispersed.

   Xu Guangling and the two came out of the tea shed, and it was already evening.

  The afterglow of the setting sun scatters on this street, people come and go, talking and laughing, as if walking on this street casually, you can stroll into a park.

   - Here, there is no park.

   "Master, that story is very boring, and it doesn't sound good at all." Xu Tonghui said beside Xu Guangling, "If you give back to the powerhouse, the powerhouse is like that? I can beat him a hundred times!"

   Next, Xu Tonghui continuously picked up many shortcomings of that story.

  What he said was right, but it was probably not worth the money spent.

   After all, it was the former seventh-rank family, and the current fifth-rank family, even if the banker lives in a secluded place, even if Xu Tonghui is only the banker's servant, his eyes will not be so shallow, and he will be embarrassed for a mere 100 copper coins.

   In fact, they came out this time, and the family did not give much money.

   Only two hundred taels in total!

   In fact, this is quite a lot. Normally, it is more than enough for two people to spend a few years outside.

   It can be as little as two or three years, and as many as four or five years. If you save a little bit, it can take longer.

   But Xu Tonghui had a little thought.

   He didn't want to return to the family so soon.

   He wanted to follow the young master.

   If he follows him for a long time, he may become the young master's person. Even if he returns to the family in the future, he can talk to the young master, talk to the patriarch, and listen to the young master.

   And if he didn't follow him long enough, after returning to the family, he might still be doing things for the family and couldn't stay with the young master.

  Then...

   It's over!

The    family says that it is not big, but it is not too small. In short, in the past ten years, Xu Tonghui has never heard the name of the young master, and has never seen him.

   He heard that the name of the young master was not long before he left this time, because the young master was preliminarily selected by the adults from Dayao Mountain.

   If he does not follow the young master after returning to the family, it may still be the same as before. For ten or eight years, he will not see the young master!

   That’s just…

   In short, if there are two opportunities for Xu Tonghui now, one is to go to Dayao Mountain to practice in the legendary spiritual realm, and the other is to follow the young master as he is now.

  Then most of the time he didn't even think about it, so he chose the latter.

  Select like now.

"Before returning to the family, let the young master take a fancy to me. It is best to take the initiative to speak and keep me by your side." Xu Tonghui thought beautifully, and then asked with joy and fear: "Master, why did you that day? choose me?"

   The patriarch called several people for the young master to choose, and he was only one of them, and his cultivation was not very outstanding.

   I remember that the young master seemed to just point at him casually.

   In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Xu Tonghui didn't even want to be selected at that time. He believed that several other people probably thought the same. ——How good it is to stay in the family, besides, the family is newly promoted to the fifth grade, and there may be better treatment and opportunities to stay in the family.

   But if you come out, what else can you do besides wind and sleep?

   But now, it has only been out for a few days, um, not even five days, Xu Tonghui doesn't know how many times he is happy and scared in his heart.

   He also finally knew why so many clan elders gathered there that day, and why so many clan elders saw them off.

   What Xu Tonghui can't understand for the time being is why the young master failed to go to Chengda Yao Mountain in the end, and why he had never heard of the young master for so many years before?

   That doesn't make sense.

  No, this is just so unreasonable!

   "Why did I choose you that day? Uncle Xu, do you usually walk with your left foot or your right foot first?"

   This question stumped Xu Tonghui.

   He deliberately stopped.

   Then start walking again.

When he walked for the first time, he stepped with his left foot first, and then thought that something was wrong. He stopped. When he walked for the second time, he stepped with his right foot first, and there seemed to be something wrong. For the third time, he stepped with his left foot first... …

   "Master!" Xu Tonghui scratched his head.

   "Yes, that's it, there's no reason." Xu Guangling said with a smile.

   Xu Tonghui secretly exhaled.

   I am so lucky!

   "Master, shall we go eat something?" Xu Tonghui said.

   "Okay, don't go to the food shop, let's go to Tankou to see if there is anything to eat, if there is, eat it, if not, then go to the food shop." Xu Guangling said.

   I eat dry food these days.

   And the so-called dry grains are fried wheat grains, which are not actually wheat, but almost, they are similar to grains anyway.

   Then comes the steamed and sun-dried jerky.

   As long as it is not damp, these two things can be easily stored for dozens of days.

   This is a very lively beach, and places with a lot of people generally do not lack food and drink.

  As expected, when Xu Guangling and the two came here, although it was only in the evening, many torches had already been lit, and in some places, a lot of bonfires were raised directly.

barbecue!

   It is not as delicate as the previous life, and most of them are one or half of the processed beasts on top and roasted.

   Mallard, pheasant, hare, bird eggs and the like.

   This is "upscale".

   Most of them are non-meat food, such as roasted or boiled gnocchi, as well as roasted various potatoes.

  This is the mouth of the big river, and of course, the specialty here is fish and shrimp.

  Xu Tonghui pretended to pick for a while, but in fact he didn't know how to pick it at all. Xu Guangling saw that the stall he picked was not bad. In fact, most of the stalls here have similar barbecue levels - they are all so bad.

   also went with him.

  Fish, shrimp, eggs, and pheasants that were cooked and then roasted, etc. After sitting down, Xu Guangling didn't ask Xu Tonghui's opinion, and ordered a lot.

  Xu Tonghui secretly had a toothache.

  According to the way the young master spends money, it won't be long before they have to go back to the family.

what to do?

   Do you want him to go to the beach to carry bags and make money?

   Even if he has the strength, he doesn't have the time!

   So sad!

  Xu Tonghui was worried in his heart and smiled on his face, "Master, this grilled fish is quite delicious, do you want to order some more?"

"Okay, ten more!" Xu Guangling said, "Uncle Xu, you are a cultivator, and you are already a 'big cultivator', so your appetite must have grown a lot. Eat as much as you want! You can't come out with me, And leave you hungry."

  Master, really, I would rather be hungry, even if I eat one meal a day!

   Of course, this is what Xu Tonghui said in his heart, and it can only be in his heart, "Master, I understand!"

   I call you slutty!

   Then, while eating, he counted silently in his heart:

   "Five copper plates."

   "Ten copper plates."

   "Twenty copper plates."

  “…”

  Young master ordered all the expensive ones at this stall!

"Master, this kind of wild bird is actually not delicious. Even if it is cooked and then roasted, it will still have teeth!" During the process of eating, Xu Tonghui finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to complain, "It's not worth five at all. A copper coin!"

   "You don't understand!" Xu Guangling smiled and shook his head.

   After this meal, he had a basic understanding of the surrounding mountains, water, vegetation, and even the entire natural ecology.
