Jin Mingjun touched out a Yuanbao and was about to hand it to the hunter, when he suddenly heard a man call out, “Miss, wait!”
When the hunter heard this, he swished the Yuanbao and put it into his pocket, turned his head to look at the speaker, and said vigilantly, “What are you going to do!”
That person Fang squeeze into the crowd, see the hunter has collected the money, stomped his foot and said: “Oops! It’s just a matter of time.”
Then rushed Jin Mingjun fist bow, full of pleading color: “Miss please. This snake in the next really have a great use, I do not expect to be the first girl to buy, in the next willing to pay fifty silver, please girl transfer to me, I do not know whether it?”
When the hunter heard this, he immediately revealed a look of regret, and busily touched out the silver and handed it to Jin Mingjun: “I won’t sell it to you, the silver will be returned to you!”
Jin Mingjun eyes glared, swish draw sword in hand, a dial a row, dial the strange snake belly to the sky, swish cut open a mouth, then the tip of the sword into the snake belly a pick, a deep purple, chicken egg large ball flying in mid-air.
Jin Mingjun was going to reach out to pick up, I did not expect that the snake gall bladder out, the stench of overflowing, she hastily shrunk her hand, cross the sword a pluck, the snake gall bladder flew to HuDaNiu.
Hu Da Niu hands and feet in a mess in the hands, the stench into the nose, can not help but dry vomit a mouth, breathless called: “everyone wait for me, I go to the side to buy pots of wine concocted some.” Twisted around and hurriedly went.
Jin Mingjun returned the sword into the sheath, hands on the waist, fierce to the hunter said: “This girl real money to buy things, you want to come to rob?”
The hunter saw her sword so sharp, where still dare to say anything?
Seeing this, Jin Mingjun revealed a smug look and looked at the person who wanted to buy the snake, “Hey, we are not a treacherous trader who sits on the ground and raises the price, we only need to take the bile of this snake, and the rest of the forty taels of silver will be sold to you.”
Mo Qi exclaimed, “That’s all! Which son is lucky enough to marry our golden sister, why worry that the family can’t prosper?”
The person who bought the snake shook his head helplessly and sighed: “Miss, I want to ask for this snake, just for the snake’s gallbladder, like this snake’s meat is poisonous all over the body, and I don’t harm people, what’s the use of asking for him?”
Jin Mingjun heard a great disappointment, resentful said: “that can only be counted as you are not blessed, also counted me not this fortune.”
Ye Guhong saw this person said snake meat is poisonous, and Hu Da Niu said in general, obviously also understand this snake, and see him look anxious, can’t help but say, “This brother, I don’t know you want this snake gall for what?”
While saying that, while carefully measuring each other a few eyes.
This person is about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, thin description, thick eyebrows and high nose, with three locks of beard, showy also has a few points of martial arts, wearing an extremely wide long shirt, style for the current unseen, about his own sewing.
Clothes hem ink dripping, painted with a clump of orchids, although only a few strokes, but the shape of God has, a glance, seems to be able to smell the fragrance.
The only thing that makes people look bad is that this person is thin, but there is a big belly, looks very obtrusive.
Listen to Ye Guhong asked him to gall for what, the man’s eyes and gave birth to the color of hope, hastily cupped his fists, and hastened to say: “This brother, you listen to me, this snake is extremely rare, originated in the body of the poisonous country, locally known as the ‘Bodhicitta Snake’, is the meaning of the Sanskrit language poisonous, powerful. This snake is poisonous, only the snake gall is a pile of special treasure, eating can add strength, can also solve the snake’s poison, I have a confidant, was bitten by a poisonous snake, in critical condition, is waiting to go to the dense forest outside the city to look for this snake, hunted the snake gall to save it, but this snake is agile and incomparable, this trip is not sure, just heard that there are hunters here to sell, hurry to, do not want to be your companion to buy it.”
Ye Guhong previously saw this snake, remembering the destruction of the robbery had said to him a martial arts old story, now listening to this person detailed description of the origin of this snake, the heart again no doubt.
Turning his head to Jin Mingjun, he said, “Sister, human life is of paramount importance, besides, this brother is willing to take the risk of hunting snakes for his friends, it is the people of my generation, this snake gall bladder, let’s let him right?”
Jin Mingjun blinked and smiled gently, “What are you asking me for? It was you who wanted to buy it before I bought it, so naturally, it’s up to you to make the decision.”
Ye Guhong joyfully said, “Senior sister is really kind-hearted! This brother, follow us.”
He saw Hu Da Niu standing in a hotel across the street, and immediately led the crowd to go, the person who bought the snake was delighted, followed closely by Ye Guhong, the people on the sidelines to see no more lively to see, but also dispersed in all directions.
The crowd did not walk a few steps, suddenly heard Li Caixia “ah yo”, surprised: “This person is interesting, how to write my sister’s name on the clothes?”
Mo Qi hastened to look, also could not help but tsk, shouted: “strange, Emei heroine’s name, this guy where to know? How dare he write it on his own clothes?”
The person who bought the snake listened to not know what to do, Ye Guhong pulled him to stand still, along with the crowd’s gaze, stretched his head to look behind him, but see this person behind the clothes, two lines of cursive into the dragon flying snake, written is: drunkenly do not know that the sky is in the water, full of boat dream pressure star river!
Li Caixia pulled Wei Jin Yi whispered: Who is this Xinghe? Why is our senior sister pressing him?
Su Qingmeng, on the other hand, blushed and waved her hand, “Don’t talk nonsense, it’s just a coincidence.”
Mo Qiqi exclaimed, “What kind of coincidence is this? How come he didn’t write about the sound of a boat full of voices pressing down on a river of stars?”
Yin Liu and Ji Xiaorong also came together and whispered, their eyes were all surprised and amused.
Ye Guhong looked stunned and thought to himself, “I’ve heard of these two verses in my previous life! Many people still use this as signature, could it be that this person wrote them?
Couldn’t help but ask: “Brother, the two verses behind you, who is the handwriting?”
That person was pulled by Ye Guhong, anxious stomped his feet and said: “Brother, and wait to save my confidant, then we will talk about how?”
Su Qingmeng also said, “Senior brother, saving people is important, other things fight what is tight.”
Ye Guhong suppressed his curiosity and nodded, “That’s true, save the people first.”
The people came to the entrance of the hotel, Hu Da Niu was using the just bought soju to rinse his hands, snake gall, that fishy odor ate wine a wash, faded a lot.
Ye Guhong said, “Brother Hu Da Niu, this brother’s friend was injured by a poisonous snake, and urgently needs this snake gall to save his life.”
Hu Da Niu surprised: “Huh, you recognize this ‘Bodhi Qu snake’?”
The man was also surprised: “Huh, you also recognize it? It’s great that you’re so knowledgeable! I was inadvertently from the Buddhist books.”
Hu Da Niu said, “I learned it from my master. This gall can increase strength, dispel snake venom, is considered a piece of exotic treasure, but saving people is important ……”
Said the palm of the snake gall bladder handed out, the man was very happy, the mouth could not stop saying thank you, busy receiving in the hand, the other hand in the pocket a pull out, pull out the boss a fat cat, born fat head, small eyes round cheeks, all body hair colorful, yellow, white, black colors, but a three flowers.
Mo Qi Qi said: “Not that the snake meat is poisonous? How to do this ‘dragon and tiger’?”
The man said angrily: “What ‘Dragon and Tiger Tiger’? This is my only confidant in the world, Ah Hua, do you want to eat it?”
The fat three-flower cat also struggled to raise its head, and breathlessly said to Mo Qi, “Meow Nyima Woo!”
It screamed in an odd voice with a long tail tone, Su Qingmeng said in surprise: “Ah yo, this cat can even curse!”
Jin Mingjun, Hu Da Niu but shouted in unison: “You this guy said half a day, but this snake gall to save a cat?”
That person seems to be afraid of them backtracking, quickly put the snake gall into the cat’s mouth: “Eat quickly eat, eat will be able to live.”
The cat also understands human nature, regardless of the snake gall bladder stench, choking and spicy wine, ah oooh a mouthful, swallowed the snake gall bladder into the abdomen, then tilted his head, slanting his eyes, looking at Jin Mingjun, Hu Da Niu, look provocative, as if to say: “What? Does your cat master not deserve to eat it?”
