Chapter 23 Can't remember where I saw it
Yue Qingran hadn't gone very far, and when she reluctantly turned back to look at the jewelry stall, she saw a man in white holding the hairpin she had just chosen and looking at it carefully.
Yue Qingran's heart skipped a beat. She really liked the hairpin just now and didn't want to miss it just like that. She ran back to the jewelry stall and said, "Master, I'm sorry, this hairpin was the one I took a liking to first."
of."
The man turned his head sideways, and the angle of his exposed mandible drew a perfect arc.
When their eyes met, Yue Qingran was startled, and her heart overflowed with inexplicable sadness. These eyes seemed so familiar.
The breeze blew by, and the man's waterfall-like long hair caressed her mask, leaving a pleasant fragrance.
The moon suddenly stagnated, and my heart kept beating.
The man opened and closed his lips like lipstick, "No one was looking at this hairpin when I was here just now. How can I say that I was the one who noticed it first?"
The man's voice was very gentle. Yue Qingran was very sure that she had never seen this person before, but this familiar feeling could not be faked. It could only be that the original owner might have seen him somewhere but could not remember it. She did not want to cause trouble.
I can only give up.
"I'm sorry, I saw it wrong." After Yue Qingran said that, she immediately covered her mouth and left.
"Hey - girl!"
Not far away, Yue Qingran was stopped by a voice from behind.
He stopped, turned around little by little, and looked at the person who came, "Is there anything else, sir?"
The man handed the hairpin to Yue Qingran, "I don't have any female relatives in my house. It's rare for a girl to have similar vision to me. As a grown man, I have no use for taking this hairpin, so I gave it to the girl!"
Yue Qingran waved her hand quickly, "No, no, no."
Seeing Yue Qingran was about to leave, the man quickly stopped him, "I'm sorry, girl, this hairpin -"
Yue Qingran thought for a while and took a step back, "I asked the boss. This hairpin cost 2 taels of silver. Just treat it as if I bought it from you. But now I don't have any taels of silver with me. If you believe me, you can tell me yours."
Address, I will return the money to you when I get back."
The man saw Yue Qingran with a serious look on his face and a warm smile on his lips, "Jinglan Bookstore in Beijing!"
Yue Qingran nodded, since she was in the capital, it would be easy to handle. She took the hairpin from the man's hand without any burden, nodded, turned around, and left without looking back.
Staring blankly at his empty palm, he looked up at the direction where Yue Qingran disappeared. The corners of the man's mouth raised, "Am I that scary?"
Yue Qingran looked at the hairpin flowers, still thinking about the man just now, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.
She shook her head and put away the complicated thoughts.
"Ganoderma lucidum, the best wild ganoderma lucidum, and various herbal medicines. Do you want to buy herbal medicines for your brothers and sisters?"
"No, no."
Yue Qingran stopped and was attracted by the little girl.
"Sister, do you want to buy herbal medicine?" The little girl stopped when she saw the moon, raised her head, and called sweetly.
Yue Qingran squatted down and picked up a Ganoderma lucidum that was in good condition, "Little sister, how do you sell this Ganoderma lucidum?"
The little girl thought for a moment and said, "Sister, this is Ganoderma lucidum. Please give me fifteen taels."
"Fifteen taels?" Yue Qingran looked around and said, "Little sister, are you alone here? Are you not afraid of meeting bad people for selling such good things and paying so much money?"
The little girl covered her lips and laughed, and explained: "Don't worry, sister, I'm not alone. I came with my grandpa. He went out for a walk and will be back soon, and the Ganoderma lucidum on display is just...
It’s not unusual for it to be aged from a few years to more than ten years.”
The little girl looked around mysteriously. A pair of big watery eyes under the pink mask blinked at Yue Qingran, and said in a low voice: "Sister, is this your first time coming to Anzhuang?"
Yue Qingran touched her nose, "Is it so obvious?"
The little girl waved to Yue Qingran, "Sister, come here."
Yue Qingran walked to the little girl and squatted down.
The little girl pointed to a team that had just patrolled by, and whispered in her ear: "Sister, you see, we set up a stall here, and we have paid a fee. They patrol several times a day, basically
I don’t dare to cause trouble to anyone, so as long as I leave the secret village, I’m safe, but after leaving the secret village, everyone has to rely on their own abilities.”
"Who are they?" Yue Qingran asked curiously.
The little girl pointed to the building in the center, "Lingpu Tower!"
Yue Qingran looked up, "It's it again?"
"ah?"
Yue Qingran shook her head and looked at the little girl curiously, "Can you tell me the origin of this Lingpu Building?"
The little girl nodded, "I've heard about it too. I heard that Lingpu Tower is a mysterious intelligence organization in the world. This secret village was only built a few years ago. At the beginning, it was just for information trading, but as time went on,
It evolved into today’s Dark Manor, but I heard that these are all controlled by the owner of Lingpu Tower. Here, Lingpu Tower is even more powerful than the emperor!"
Yue Qingran was surprised, "Is the court just letting it go? Is it ignored?"
The little girl smiled slyly and continued in a low voice: "The imperial court is eager to eradicate Lingpu Tower and replace it. Although no one knows who the owner of Lingpu Tower is, not even whether he is a man or a woman, they do know that the owner has magical powers.
Guang Da, there is nothing he doesn’t know about, and the people in the imperial court can’t get away with it even if they want to break their heads... Ah!”
Yue Qingran was startled by the sudden scream, and she patted her chest in shock.
The little girl covered her head and kept jumping, "Grandpa, you hit me on the head again. I said you would beat me stupidly. If I am really beaten stupidly by you, let's see who will provide for you in the future."
An old man in ragged clothes, wearing a gray-brown rabbit fur hat, a wolf mask of the same color on his face, and holding a curved gourd cane kept poking the little girl's forehead, "Use the sky as a quilt, use the earth as a blanket."
Sir, your grandpa and I will never be hungry wherever we go. I don’t need you to support me in my old age. You just need to take care of your little mouth and be careful not to cause trouble for yourself. Don’t even ask me to provide for you in my old age and ask me to collect your body for you.
"
After saying that, he looked Yue Qingran up and down with evil eyes, "Girl, do you want to buy some herbs? If you don't want to buy them, please leave."
Yue Qingran wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, she gave up. She nodded with a smile, picked out some herbs from the ground, "I want these two Ganoderma lucidums, and wrap up these herbs for me."
Although her pockets were empty, it was getting late now. She was still useful to Chu Junmo. She didn't believe that he really left her like this. She just had to wait here for someone to find her. She just hoped that someone else would
Missed the auction.
The old man's eyes suddenly lit up, "Hey, it's a big order, come on, girl, I will pack it for you myself. Little bell, come on, come on, let's chat with this girl for a while."
The person who was called Little Bell was none other than the little girl who had been chatting with Yue Qingran for a long time.
