Chapter Twenty(2/2)
"The storyteller shook his folding fan with a calm expression.
The beggar at the door squinted his eyes, cracked melon seeds in his mouth, and hummed a little tune, but it did not affect the storyteller or the audience.
"Big girl, let me grab a few handfuls of melon seeds. Hey, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
"Tsk." The salesman sitting near the door smacked his lips.
The beggar continued singing and threw a copper coin into the bowl.
The copper coins jingled and rolled down in the bowl, and then the sound was settled, but what was shown was the back side.
"Looks like he's not very lucky." The beggar crossed his legs and smiled inexplicably.
The teahouse owner saw it, walked to the door, and coughed a few times.
"foot."
The beggar shrugged and retracted his feet outside the door.
"It looks like he's really not very lucky." The salesman put down the wooden box behind him and drank some tea.
"Suizhen's four desires are not something you can see just by looking at them, let alone the two people in this teahouse who have been conquered by him." The beggar said nonchalantly.
Squinting his eyes, he saw a girl sitting in the corner. The girl looked to be in her early twenties. She wore a double bun, with two thin eyebrows under her bangs, and her eyes were shining with hope.
, she is also smart, with a beautiful nose and beautiful lips, and skin that can be broken by blows, but judging from the clothes the girl is wearing, she does not belong to the Central Plains of Dajing.
The girl was wearing a batik cyan pleated skirt with a waistband at the front and back, an indigo top with a collar and a handkerchief, with a slanted right lapel. However, the top was embroidered with the Five Poisons, which made her look a bit untouchable.
"Follow the true four desires and poison the intestines." The beggar muttered, and then looked to the other side of the teahouse.
He was a middle-aged scribe who looked gentle, refined and easy-going. He was well-dressed, had a gentle demeanor, and an indelible softness in his eyes.
"Follow the True Four Desires·Thunder, Smoke and Firecrackers." The salesman answered.
Follow the true four desires, drink, sex and wealth.
Wine is a poison that penetrates the intestines, sex is a steel knife that scrapes bones, wealth is the root of trouble, and anger is a thunder, smoke and cannon.
Chuangchangdu and Leiyanpao listened to the storyteller's performance attentively, but the expressions on their faces were not Gujing Wubo.
Chuanchangdu listened to the story the storyteller wrote and told, and an expression of eagerness appeared on his face.
The thunder smoke cannon was just tapping on the table with two fingers.
The storyteller glanced at Lei Yanpao, but didn't say anything, and just kept talking to himself.
But the simple words are vividly depicted, and a simple mouth expresses all kinds of voices, youth, teenager, male voice, female voice, mature man...
There are also sounds from gambling houses, the sounds of dice clashing, and mahjong clashing.
If you close your eyes, you can imagine that you are there,
But open your eyes and look.
A table, a chair, a door, just a piece of wood.
The storyteller told the story in an orderly manner, and the development of the story quietly reached another stage.
Some listeners scratched their ears, and some scratched their cheeks, but what was identifiable was that the faces of these two listeners were red and full of dissatisfaction and anger.
"Is it over yet? Are we going to hear about such insignificant things? Just skip to the main text!"
Lei Yan Pao still had a smile on his face, and the rhythm and frequency of tapping on the table became louder and louder.
"That's right! That's not what we want to hear!"
One person took the lead, and then everyone made things difficult for him. He felt angry for no reason, and so did the teahouse boss Cheng.
"I spent money to treat you and why are you telling me this? I'll give you my money back!"
An ordinary storyteller would either be at a loss at this moment, or be horrified, and end up in despair, but the storyteller is neither angry nor annoyed, just like a beggar, a salesman, or someone with intestinal poison.
The intestinal poison was originally in a remote corner. Seeing the storyteller's indifferent expression, the beggar's leisure, and the salesman's calmness, his eyes changed a little.
Seeing that the audience was getting angry, she quietly blew in a mouthful of the orchid-musk-like wine, which made everyone drunk. This intoxication also fueled the anger, but her body was weak and she couldn't exert herself. Even though she was drunk, she still had delicious food in her mouth.
They were still yelling and cursing incomprehensibly, but some people were so drunk that they fell asleep.
She looked again and saw that the three people remained unchanged.
She looked at Lei Yan Pao with some hesitation, and Lei Yan Pao also looked at her in astonishment.
The storyteller took everything into consideration and just knocked on the wood to wake him up.
"quiet."
As soon as the magnetic voice uttered one word, the nameless fire disappeared instantly, and the drunken state disappeared as well.
"forget."
Before they could react, the audience was at a loss and didn't know what happened.
Thunder Smoke Cannon and Intestinal Poison both looked at the storyteller with surprise and suspicion.
"Say what you say?" Lei Yanpao whispered. Although he was confused, he didn't dare to cause trouble again. He just slipped out of the door in dejection.
The salesman glanced sideways at the thunder smoke cannon, while the beggar stretched out his foot at the right time and tripped the thunder smoke cannon.
Only the storyteller didn't pay attention and just slapped him awake.
The thunder and smoke cannon at the door stood frozen on the spot as if struck by lightning.
