Chapter 190: Shopping, I Am Destined to Meet You
Bihai Cave Mansion does not need protection.
If the intruder is of low level, it is not his turn to take action.
If the intruder is of high level, he has to take action even if he wants to.
In fact, Gu Ke hopes that there will be sand sculpture monsters, or their minions, Tianling believers, and Saint Blood Sect members, who will take the initiative to deliver soul source and fertilizer bags.
But the immigrants of Bihai City are sincere, and he can't just say "Don't bother, I don't need it" for this, which is really too discouraging.
So it doesn't matter how the elders and second-wheel masters of Bihai City arrange it, just let them.
At this moment, the four people stood on the stone platform of the small hut, overlooking Bihai City ten miles away.
From a distance, the pedestrians inside were like ants, coming and going constantly, a lively scene.
Compared with the situation that there was no one within a thousand miles of Yulong Cave Mansion, it was full of fireworks.
Even under the leadership of Saranzhu, he visited Liangshan Village many times in the way of divine thoughts, but it was different from the real scene that was so close now.
Because after the Bihai Cave Mansion was built, it was somewhat similar to a roadside stall at a fixed location, and was subject to fewer restrictions.
Gu Ke and his four companions could go out for half an hour every day by projection.
The time was not long, and the projection would automatically collapse if it did not return in time, but it did not have the function of external transactions.
This difference had both advantages and disadvantages.
The disadvantage was that it was naturally impossible to increase the export of exotic crops, martial arts, and skills.
The advantage was that there were no tasks that had to be completed, and they could move anywhere within half an hour without worrying about the return time like setting up a stall.
Taking Xiaoman, the weakest one, as the lower limit, with a suitable weapon to fly in the air, half an hour was enough to reach 500 miles away.
It was not difficult for Xiao Ping'er and Saranzhu to run thousands of miles, and Gu Ke could use his full strength to travel two thousand miles away.
It took less than half a cup of tea to go to Bihai City, ten miles away, and daily shopping became possible.
Xiaoman was full of excitement: "Old Gu, can we go shopping?"
Before Gu Ke opened his mouth, Saranzhu interrupted: "No."
Xiaoman glared: "Why not?"
Saranzhu pointed to the fairy field behind the hut: "This land is still empty, go to work."
Xiaoman said disdainfully: "Work? Who can't do it? I'll do it now."
As he spoke, he jumped behind the house like the wind, waved his hands, and blasted four large pits in the soil with his Push Mountain Palm.
Saranzhu timely transferred four ironwood saplings from Yulong Cave Mansion and dropped them into the big pit.
Xiaoman swept the Push Mountain Palm, pressed the overturned soil back to the ground, fixed the ironwood saplings, and the planting task was completed.
The reason why only these few trees were planted was that the ironwood tree was a special crop. It took more than five years to grow on the black soil before it had excellent properties and could be of great use.
Even if the black soil fairy field was upgraded to the red spirit fairy field, the ironwood tree would take more than two years to grow.
The ironwood tree that has grown up is not small. It is good to plant four trees in the fairy field of two mu of land.
After doing all this, Xiaoman did not rush to say anything this time: Humph, just don't give Ah Zhu this guy a chance to interrupt again.
Gu Ke saw her expectant eyes and smiled and shook his head: "Okay, we have to change a new image and a new name for this projection. You think of a name and we will set off."
Xiao Ping'er almost didn't hesitate and said directly: "I will be called Mai Miao."
Gu Ke knew as soon as he heard it that this was a character taken from her cousin Wang Xiaomai and nephew Li Qingmiao.
Saranzhu didn't care: "Then I will be called He Miao."
Following Xiao Ping'er is a very normal thing for her. It has always been like this when she was a fool.
Xiaoman was the only one left, and she was a little anxious.
But she was used to being "unlearned and unskilled" at ordinary times, so she couldn't think of any good name for a while: "Then I will be called Suan Miao..."
Everyone looked at her sideways: This name is really strong!
After Xiaoman said it, he saw their expressions and realized that the name didn't sound so nice. He quickly changed his words: "Wait, let me think about it, let me think about it."
Salanzhu laughed and started to make trouble: "Why not call it green onion, it smells better."
Xiaoman couldn't help but glare at him in his "busy" time: "You are the green onion, you smell the best, I smell good."
Salanzhu continued to make trouble: "Do you smell like green onion? Or garlic?"
Xiaoman didn't bother to think about the "new name" and immediately retorted: "You still smell like purple pepper, which can make people faint."
Gu Ke coughed lightly: "How about calling it Xiangmiao?"
Xiaoman was startled, then smiled happily, jumped over and hugged him and acted coquettishly: "Haha, let's call it this, let's call it this, it's still Old Gu who loves me, unlike others... hum!"
Salanzhu made a face at her: "Both green onion and garlic smell good."
Xiaoman didn't care at the moment.
Gu Ke helped to choose the name. He thought that as long as she smelled good, it didn't matter what kind of smell she smelled.
Having solved Xiaoman's "inability to name", Gu Ke ignored the bickering between the two women and activated the projection in his mind.
The next moment, the four of them stood in a small forest at the northern entrance of Bihai City.
The three women looked at each other with interest and found that their figures were roughly similar. The new faces they changed were still ordinary and had no characteristics.
Under the power of the system, even if others looked carefully, they would feel vague about their appearance and could not remember the specific details.
However, the robes on their bodies became the ones they didn't wear often, but they were in line with Dawu's style.
Gu Ke wore a moon-white long gown and a headband on his head. If you don't look at his face, he can be called a young homely version of Wen Zong.
The three women all wore short clothes with narrow sleeves and cross collars, long skirts, and a double-breasted coat on their upper body.
Not counting underwear, most of them are only two layers.
The weather in the south of Donghai and Nanye is hotter, and ordinary people need to work, so the simpler the clothes, the better.
Generally, the outer clothes with double-breasted collars are stronger and rougher, and can be changed and washed frequently, which is wear-resistant and dirt-proof.
Of course, the three women's clothes are made of green linen cloth. The style is simple, but the texture, cutting and stitching are much better than ordinary clothes.
The four walked out of the woods and came to the north entrance.
Although their demeanor is not like that of ordinary people, and they have no luggage or packages with them, the guards at the door only looked at them a few times, then looked away and let them enter the city.
The Bihai City is building a large-scale project to collect refugees, and it also maintains a large flow of people with the Nanye Mountains.
The guards only maintain order, and people who enter and leave without obvious abnormalities will not be questioned.
Of course, the Bihai City has its own confidence.
There are dozens of second-wheel masters and hundreds of first-wheel warriors stationed in the city.
As long as Wu Zong didn't come, the other dozen people who were making trouble would be beaten and then arrested for hard labor.
It just so happened that the city was undergoing a large-scale construction and urgently needed large animals to move bricks.
Gu Ke and his four companions walked leisurely on the streets of Bihai City.
Xiaoman pulled Xiao Ping'er and Saranzhu to look around, stopping from time to time to look at things of interest.
The vendors and shopkeepers would greet them warmly, hoping to make some money from them.
Unfortunately, the four of them didn't have half a Da Wu copper coin, and Xiaoman was very curious. After watching for a while, listening to a few words, saying "thank you for not having money", he laughed and pulled the two women away.
The vendors and shopkeepers didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but they couldn't get angry.
First, it was just a casual greeting, and it didn't waste much time. Second, although Xiaoman had no money, she was polite.
You can't just say don't look if you don't have money.
Bihai City is not small, but it is under construction. It is a large construction site and there are not many places to visit.
The four people did not buy anything, and it took less than two cups of tea to walk around.
Then Xiaoman hugged Gu Ke's hand and stopped in front of a restaurant. He smelled the aroma of food and his eyes were shining.
Gu Ke thought about it and nodded in agreement: "If you want to eat, go in."
Xiaoman smiled and didn't want to stick to him like usual. It was mainly because there were so many people and it was not so convenient.
The four entered the restaurant.
This place was temporarily built with bamboo, more like a pergola than a house, and the tables and chairs were also rough and casual.
The diners were bustling in the lobby, talking noisily, which was very similar to the fly restaurant in his previous life. Gu Ke felt friendly at first sight.
A middle-aged woman with rough hands and feet and wearing an apron came forward and greeted them enthusiastically but not very professionally: "Four guests, what do you want to eat?"
Xiao Man, who has always been active, did not interrupt at this moment, leaving the decision to Gu Ke.
Bai Suqing taught her that she could do whatever she wanted with Gu Ke in the valley, but she had to listen to him outside and not do anything reckless.
Besides, she had no money and could not afford anything. She was just waiting to see how he would make money, otherwise she would have to eat for free.
Wait, it seems that I have never eaten for free before. Is today the first time? I feel a little excited just thinking about it. The little girl's thoughts suddenly deviated, and her eyes looked around.
It was ventilated on all sides, and no one should be able to catch up after eating. The place chosen by Old Gu was really good.
Gu Ke did not notice the guy's brain circuit, nor did he pay much attention to the middle-aged woman in front of him.
He looked around, his eyes lit up: "I'm here to look for someone."
He walked to the inner corner of the restaurant and looked at a guest at a table.
The three women followed and looked at this person with similar eyes.
This is a young woman, probably in her early twenties, with dust all over her clothes, face, neck, hands and feet.
This small restaurant does not have one table per guest, and you can sit down if there is an empty seat, so she doesn't know the other five people at the table.
When Gu Ke looked at her, she was eating noodles, a bowl of plain noodles.
Except for a few green chopped green onions, there was only soup and noodles, which looked a bit pitiful.
Of course, this noodle is not as bad as it seems. The noodles are made of purple wheat flour, which is much more expensive than ordinary noodles.
She ate slowly and very seriously, as if each noodle was the most delicious thing in the world.
When Gu Ke came over, she still had half a bowl of noodles left.
After the four people watched her eating noodles inhumanely, her movements could not help but become stiff. She raised her chopsticks and put them down again, but she didn't put the noodles into her mouth.
She let go of the noodles and looked at them with a vigilant and puzzled look: "What do you want to do?"
After saying this, she seemed to feel that it had no deterrent effect, and quickly added: "This is Bihai City, no one is allowed to make trouble without reason."
The people at the same table also looked back and forth at both sides with curious eyes.
However, the couple with a little girl were more cautious. They had already pulled the child and backed away with the noodles.
The little girl was still sucking a noodle in her mouth, shaking it around her mouth, and curiosity was revealed in her big eyes.
The other three casual guests were all young men, all of whom had a round of strength.
At this moment, while holding the bowl to eat rice, they used the bowl to cover their eyes and scanned the two sides from the edge of the bowl.
Their eyes were full of expectations of "fighting, fighting quickly", and they looked like they were not afraid of being hit on the head by the melon.
Gu Ke sat opposite the woman, in the seat that the family of three had just given up.
On the left and right were the three young men who were watching the fun.
He ignored the others and just nodded and smiled at the woman: "Don't worry, I just saw you and I felt that you were destined to be together."
The three men who were watching the excitement widened their eyes: What? Are the street scoundrels now so straightforward! He said he had sex with a girl right away?
The woman's face changed, she put down her chopsticks, and put her hand on the handle of the short knife at her waist: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't know you, go away quickly, or I will call the patrolmen."
Gu Ke shook his head: "No, you don't want to."
The woman's eyes condensed, her lips moved slightly, and she was about to call the patrolmen of Bihai City to come.
The patrolmen are the guards of Bihai City, mainly patrolling the streets in the city to maintain order.
Naturally, making trouble in the city falls under their jurisdiction.
Gu Ke chuckled, reached into his sleeves, took out a folding fan, and opened it with a flick of his finger: "Meeting is fate, why should we reject each other?"
The woman felt an invisible pressure enveloping her, her whole body was stiff, and she couldn't shout at the tip of her tongue, and she was shocked: "You..."
After she said it, she found that the invisible pressure disappeared without a trace, as if the moment just now was just an illusion.
"You are..." The woman was a little confused, but she subconsciously changed to a respectful title: "Sir, what do you mean?"
Gu Ke smiled and waved to the middle-aged woman: "All the dishes ordered later will be put on her account."
The waitress just glanced at the woman, and seeing that she didn't object, she nodded and asked: "What do you want to order?"
Gu Ke motioned Xiaoman to come up, but he didn't say anything else.
The woman listened to Xiaoman ordering mountain delicacies, bacon, bamboo tube rice, garlic sprouts, dried tofu and sausage, spicy potato chicken, bamboo fungus and dumpling soup, etc., and her face darkened a little bit.
It's not that she was angry. She had already vaguely sensed Gu Ke's terrifying side, so how could she dare to be angry?
Moreover, there was a line of words on the folding fan that Gu Ke was shaking in his hand - calmness naturally cools down.
In the eyes of this woman, it must be a warning to herself to be honest.
But her family suffered a sudden disaster, so she had to flee and ran thousands of miles in one breath.
Stealing, robbery and plundering were forbidden in the ancestral precepts. She had been brought up strictly since she was a child, so she had never considered it.
It was impossible to stop halfway and find a job when she was escaping.
In this way, she had eaten all the money she brought with her before leaving.
In the past, how could she come to such a small restaurant, let alone order a bowl of plain noodles.
There was no way to eat expensive noodles of different species. If she didn't replenish her high-quality food, her blood and energy would be exhausted, and her strength would decline.
The price was that after eating this bowl of noodles, she would have to worry about where to get the money.
So, how should she pay the bill later after being "treated"? Eat a free meal and then let yourself be beaten?
While the woman was struggling, the dishes from the restaurant were served one by one.
