"Oh, that's it, then why do we have to come out again?"

"I've been saying you're playful all day long. Look, I've said it many times at home."

"Hehe, it's just that Xiaoyao happens to be away, so I'll let you talk to me later."

Seeing how Xiaoyao was about to act coquettishly, Bai Qingyu was helpless, "There are many reasons. To exercise with you, to let your sister see the outside world and have more contact with her, and also to find the monsters in the monster book. You guys, you know."

"Would it be hard to exercise then?"

"You want to ask if you are tired? I can't say that. It should not be tiring. However, it should have a great impact on the two of you. In other words, you are not tired physically but mentally."

"why?"

"Because, the life outside is completely different from what you two understand now. The outside world is much crueler than you think, and it is much crueler than what I said, so I will encounter many things later. , you will feel incredible, until you feel numb in the end.”

Bai Qingyu looked forward, "The human heart is sinister, and there is nothing you can't think of or do."

"Then Auntie, what should we do?" Yu Weijin looked sideways.

"I can't give you an exact explanation of what to do specifically. Most of the time, we probably have to watch silently. Just watching can already train you."

After saying that, the little snake jumped up to Bai Qingyu and stuck his head over, "We haven't encountered this kind of thing before. Aren't we always fine?"

"Okay?" Bai Qingyu glared at her angrily, "You don't know it's because you were sleeping all the time on the road, either sleeping or staying in the book box and refusing to come out. At that time, I wanted to tell you that you are such a lazy person. snake."

"Aren't you worried about what impact I will have on my aunt when I come out?" Little Snake was not embarrassed and tried to excuse herself.

"Auntie, where are we going now?"

"There is no destination, just take it wherever you go."

Holding Xiaoli's neck with both hands and resting her face on Xiaoli's head, Xiaoyao yawned, "Will aunt adopt other monster sisters?"

"Well, it depends on fate and luck."

"Uh-huh."

Bai Qingyu herself doesn't know who the next demon will be. It should be said that she is not sure that the person she adopts must be a demon, but it is also possible for a human being. For example, Xiaodie was like this at that time.

Walking on the path, Bai Qingyu took out a flute and played it gently. Her flute had improved a lot, at least it was no longer the bad state where even the kid complained about her flute.

While he was playing, Bai Qingyu noticed dark clouds gathering in the sky.

The weather was pretty good just now, but why did it start raining after walking for a long time?

What's even more weird is that this dark cloud is not very big. It is not as big as a normal small town. It can be vaguely seen at a glance. And she doesn't know if it is her imagination. This dark cloud has been following. In the sky above a few of them.

Glancing at Bai Ling'er who was teasing the little green snake, Bai Qingyu suddenly thought of something.

Could this cloud be caused by the little snake?

The little snake is a dragon, and it is very possible to attract rain clouds. When she was in Tongzhou, she could rely on her own power to bring down the rain, even though it was only a small area.

Sure enough, just as Bai Qingyu thought, it started to rain soon. The rain was not heavy and was just a light drizzle.

He took out a wooden umbrella from the storage ring and casually put a layer of barrier around Xiaoli to protect the three little guys from the rain. He, Zhentian and Xiaoshe held oil-paper umbrellas.

In the field not far away, an old farmer raised his head in confusion. It suddenly started to rain. He was about to go home. Unexpectedly, before he left, the rain suddenly stopped after a while. The sky seemed to be divided into two parts. It rained on one side. It hasn't rained yet, and the dividing line is still moving in one direction.

He raised his head and looked around, and saw the first few figures walking leisurely past.

Holding an umbrella, Bai Qingyu arrived at a small county town along the way. Ignoring the sight of the people, he arrived at a small noodle shop with ease.

The county town is not big, and the noodle shop is not big either.

As soon as Bai Qingyu and others arrived, they instantly attracted the attention and attention of everyone in the noodle shop.

People in small towns have never seen such people. The men stared and couldn't believe what they were seeing. Bai Qingyu had long been accustomed to this kind of sight. As long as he didn't harass her, he could just look at her. He couldn't go over and give others eyes. Pull it out.

The shop owner was an honest man. He walked out quickly. He didn't lose his composure because of Bai Qingyu's dress and appearance. He smiled and said, "What do these girls want to eat? This small shop only has some noodles and no skills. They make money by ordering noodles." We barely make ends meet with a little money.”

The boss's meaning is very simple. His small shop only has noodles. If you want to eat something good, he must not be able to do it here. It is a small place where poor people can feed their families.

Bai Qingyu is not an ordinary person in terms of dress, appearance or temperament. He may be much more powerful than those high-ranking officials in the city.

How could such a young lady like his shabby shop?

"Just one bowl of noodles per person." Bai Qingyu said.

She smelled the aroma when she came here. The noodles in this store were definitely good.

And for some reason, Bai Qingyu felt the demon book vibrating as soon as he entered the store.

Ask for a ticket.

Volume 3: Journey to the Demon Book: Chapter [-] Poor Girl

The noodles came out quickly, and there didn't seem to be anything too special about it, except that it tasted really good. However, Bai Qingyu frowned when he saw the three little guys, but he still ate it.

The mouths of the three of them were all spoiled by Bai Qingyu and Zhentian. It was their first time eating out, and they had some small expectations in their hearts. After eating, they felt that the taste was light and bland, not as delicious as the food at home. , and the sanitary conditions in the store are not as good as at home.

The bowls were from the store. Bai Qingyu didn't let them use the chopsticks in the chopstick cage, but brought his own.

This isn't a mysophobia, it's just that Bai Qingyu doesn't like eating with other people's chopsticks, so he doesn't want his children to do the same.

The store was eerily quiet. Everyone was looking at where Bai Qingyu was. Even the noodles on the table felt a little tasteless. After one bite after another, he subconsciously used chopsticks to fish them out, only to find that there was no noodles left in the bowl. The soup is pouring.

In no time, after finishing the noodles, Bai Qingyu called the boss over to pay the bill, without giving more or less.

The boss was a kind and honest man with a weathered face and was dressed in dark gray linen clothes. He took the money and said quickly, "Are you satisfied with the immortal's food?"

"not bad."

"Hey, okay, with the immortal's words, I feel much more at ease."

"Well, I will come again tomorrow." The boys had already gone out playing around, Bai Qingyu was the last to leave, stood in front of the door and said.

"Okay, the immortal can come whenever he wants."

Knowing that Bai Qingyu was probably a monk, the boss was quite polite. When Bai Qingyu left, he looked at the empty seats with emotion in his eyes.

Those three children were so happy. Children should be so happy.

When I think of my daughter again, I feel sour in my heart.

Her life was miserable, and she had been like this since childhood.

·

"I feel like the noodles in that store are not as delicious as the ones made by my mother."

On the way to the inn, Xiaoyao held Bai Qingyu's hand and whispered.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Yijin nodded, "Yes, I think so too, but the taste is actually not bad."

"That's because you two haven't eaten food from other places outside. If you had, you would know that this store is actually quite good. Auntie went to the right place."

The little snake said while touching the little raccoon's head, and wanted to ride on it. As soon as he finished speaking, he planned to catch the little raccoon, but the little raccoon ran away with a slight jump.

Bai Qingyu smiled and said nothing. Just as Xiao She said, the restaurant she chose was already very good. Except for the big restaurants outside like Xiangtianlou, other inns and restaurants were not as good as this one. Home store.

After the cubs had quieted down after chattering, she spoke.

"I told you in the morning that life in the world is full of different situations, each has its own ups and downs, and the human heart is as deep as the ocean. You will understand this sentence soon."

"Is this the noodle shop that mom is talking about?" Xiaoyao raised her head and looked at Bai Qingyu's profile.

"I won't tell you for now, you will know soon. It's not that I'm giving you any clues now, but I don't know how it will develop in the future. I can only guess that things will be unexpected."

Bai Qingyu wanted to go to an inn, but there were so many people who couldn't stay there. She just wanted to go to some wealthy people's houses to rent a courtyard before it was completely dark. She had done this kind of thing not once or twice. She found the house easily and took the money. Come out of the spirit stone.

Spiritual stones are the mainstream currency among monks. They can be spent in the mortal world at almost the same price as gold. For such spiritual stones, Bai Qingyu has not only tens of millions but also millions of dollars in his hands.

After taking over the yard, he also gave a maid as a gift, but Bai Qingyu didn't want it.

When we arrived at the ancient courtyard, the first thing we did was to purify the dust and dirt here.

After resting at night, Bai Qingyu, Zhentian and Xiaoya were in the same room.

Xiaoya fell asleep, and Bai Qingyu was still leaning on Zhentian's chest.

The lights in the room were dim, and Bai Qingyu took out the demon book, "Actually, this is one of the main reasons why I went to that noodle shop. After entering the area of ​​that noodle shop, there was movement in the demon book."

"Has this ever happened before?"

"Never."

"That's because my sister has been staying at home and not going out, so she hasn't met the monster recorded above. That's why she hasn't met it."

Zhentian understands Bai Qingyu so well that if he doesn't go out for two or three years, of course he won't find anything.

"Well... what you said does make sense. Let's go and have a look tomorrow. Even if this noodle shop doesn't have the monsters in the monster book, something will happen later."

Bai Qingyu saw some bad premonitions on the boss's head, and something was bound to happen in the short term.

Zhentian didn't ask any more questions, turned off the lights, and the room became quiet.

It's time for the second day.

During the day, Bai Qingyu took the children to wander on the street, thinking that he was relaxing. At dinner time, he took the children to the noodle shop again.

The boss is still enthusiastic about hospitality, and it seems that nothing has changed.

There were very few people in the store today, and the boss had nothing to do. He stood aside and listened to the chats of the customers. He noticed that Bai Qingyu had finished eating, and hurriedly came over, "Would you like some more noodles, immortal?"

"No, there's no need to call me immortal, just call me guest." Bai Qingyu put down his chopsticks, took out some pastries from the storage ring and handed them to the kids.

This action of taking out pastries out of thin air was seen by the boss. With his eyes shocked, he quickly said, "How can this be done? We can't break the rules."

"..."

Seeing that Bai Qingyu didn't speak, the boss felt very uneasy. He obviously wanted to say something but didn't dare to speak.

He was just an ordinary common man, penniless, and the money he could earn from a run-down shop was barely enough to fill his stomach. How could he have the money to hire an immortal to help him?

The atmosphere became deadlocked. The boss wanted to leave, but there was a voice in his heart telling him that if he missed this opportunity, he would never get it again. Immortals are not met every day, and opportunities are not presented every day. .

In this complicated psychology, it became like this, neither leaving nor speaking.

"Does the boss have anything else to say?"

Suddenly, Bai Qingyu's voice brought the boss back from his thoughts. He suddenly came back to his senses and simply gritted his teeth. The man in his 30s actually bent his legs and knelt down.

"I have something to ask of you, please ask the immortal for help."

The sudden change made Xiaoyao, Yu Yijin and Bai Xiaoya, who were secretly eating Xiaoyao's pastries, stunned at the same time. Like Xiaoyao, he just picked up the noodles with chopsticks and put them in his mouth. He kept this posture and his cheeks were slightly bulging. Qi was quite cute, looking at the boss kneeling behind Bai Qingyu with his almond-shaped eyes in confusion.

This boss gave her a pretty good impression. He didn't stare at her mother with disgusting eyes like others. He was also very polite and even gave them extra noodles for free.

Why did he suddenly kneel here? His mother didn't do anything to him.

Bai Qingyu stood up and used his demon power to help the boss up, "I'm not an immortal, I'm just an ordinary person. I may not be able to help you, but I can help you first. If not, then I will There’s nothing we can do.”

"Thank you, Immortal. Thank you, Immortal. The Immortal's kindness will be unforgettable in my life."

At this point, the little guys didn't want to continue eating. They dropped their bowls and chopsticks and stood up and came to Bai Qingyu's side. Xiaoyao also pulled Bai Qingyu's sleeves.

The boss's problem may be said to be simple, but may also be said to be complicated.

His wife died young and left two daughters by her side. The eldest daughter was 16 years old and already at the age of marriage. The younger daughter was eight years old and didn’t know anything at her young age. The whole family relied on this small noodle shop to make a living. Not to mention how poor he was, he could at least have enough to eat, but apart from having enough to eat, he had nothing left on him.

But unfortunately, the eldest daughter has been blind since childhood and is frail and sickly.

Now that she is of marriageable age, her boss wants to marry her off.

But marrying a girl requires a dowry, especially in the case of his daughter, who cannot serve her parents-in-law, so the dowry must be thick. After learning the news, his daughter refused to say anything and had to quarrel with him almost every day.

My family has no money, and I still have a younger sister to support.

So the eldest daughter wanted the boss to sell her to a brothel. It would be okay if she couldn't see, and she could get some money for her sister to spend. Anyway, it would be better than getting married.

The boss's request was also very simple. He hoped that Bai Qingyu could help his daughter regain her sight and get better health.

The story sounded quite pitiful. Xiaoyao felt soft after hearing it. She pulled Bai Qingyu's sleeve and said, "Mother, mother, let's help him. His daughter is so pitiful."

Bai Qingyu didn't answer, and looked towards Yu Weijin. He almost knew what Yu Weijin was thinking by looking at her eyes and Xiao Yao's.

And could things really be that simple?

Bai Qingyu agreed to the boss's words, and after there were no other customers in the restaurant, he followed the boss to the yard at the back, where the family of three usually lived.

In the yard, Bai Qingyu saw the boss's two daughters.

What is different from what the boss said is that her eldest daughter is not only blind, but also unable to speak. She is blind and mute, but she looks pretty good.

Under such circumstances, if she really gets married, she doesn't need to think too much about her life.
