Mo You took another bite of sesame seed cake and chewed it, then she placed two gold ingots lightly on the stove of the store.
The light of the gold was particularly dazzling, and the store owner's eyes instantly became straight, and he became more and more at a loss.
"Housekeeper, I just came to Huaiyang City. I think Huaiyang City is a bit strange. I don't dare to stay in an inn. I wonder how the shop owner's house is like. Is there any room available?"
This middle-aged man has been selling sesame cakes for half his life, and this is the first time he has encountered this kind of thing.
But he looked at Mo You, then at the two ingots of gold, and after hesitating for a long time, he nodded.
"Yes, there is room at my house. It's just me and my wife. We can stay there. I'll take you home right away."
As he said that, he started to pack up his food and stopped selling sesame cakes!
The reason why he went out to sell sesame seed cakes under such circumstances was because his family was poor and needed money urgently, so he took the risk to sell sesame seed cakes.
Now he has got two gold ingots. With this money, his old wife will have money for medicine, and he doesn't want to take any more risks!
The middle-aged man took Mo You home after careful consideration.
It’s not that I’m not afraid of luring a wolf into my house and bringing a big rat home.
But these big rats can only pretend to be mortals now, and they have never appeared to pretend to be monks, so only middle-aged people dare to do this.
The room was a little dark, but as the owner said, it was very clean and there was no strange smell.
The number of gold ingots changed from one to two.
There is a place on the mountain outside Huaiyang City, where there is a milk fruit tree planted by the devil, which matured exactly a year ago.
Until his old wife vomited blood in front of him, and was told by the doctor that she had planted poison. He borrowed all the money he could, and could only hang on to the old woman, unable to buy the medicine that could really save her.
At that time, this middle-aged man finally figured it out.
The clothes must have been washed today and haven't been dried yet. The shop owner must have recognized the clothes and noticed something was wrong, so he hit the mouse so decisively.
Then the number of gold ingots increased to four, and the store owner breathed heavily.
It is said that too many ants can kill an elephant, let alone so many big rats.
At that time, the maturity of this milk fruit forest attracted the attention and madness of the monks in Huaiyang City. However, this milk fruit forest was not an ownerless thing. The demon had guarded this milk fruit forest for hundreds of years, and now it was finally harvested.
How could it be given up to these monks who suddenly appeared!
Mo You stuffed the gold ingot into the store owner's arms and lowered his voice.
The luster of gold was very attractive, and he really wanted it, but when he thought of the city lord's order, he still hesitated.
Mo You was still standing next to the wheelbarrow at the entrance of the courtyard. The shop owner saw her as soon as she came out and hurriedly came to greet her.
When Mo You finished hearing the story, the interest in her eyes disappeared, and the light in her eyes was even a little cold.
The middle-aged man shook his head quickly and said he didn't dare. He touched the four gold ingots in his arms again and again, and then laughed.
"Don't worry, storekeeper. I have a soundproof array. Just tell me and no one will know."
Mo You took one look and knew how the shop owner recognized the big rat.
But he endured it, just tucked the quilt back on the person lying on the bed, and then went out.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay that you're back..."
"Excuse me, owner, this place is very nice."
The shopkeeper stopped talking and was obviously more moved.
The shopkeeper's hands holding the gold ingot were shaking. After a long while, he still nodded with red eyes.
With that said, Mo You took out another ingot of gold and five taels of gold ingots.
Just as long as nothing happens, just fine!
The shopkeeper quickly put her back on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and touched her forehead and cheeks. She didn't have a fever, but she was very weak and couldn't even open her eyes.
Before, Mo You thought the store owner was exaggerating, but now, after learning the accurate news, Mo You was ready to massacre the city!
After the shopkeeper hung the clothes to dry, he called Mo You into the house. He pushed open a room next to him and spoke to Mo You enthusiastically.
The city lord and monks in Huaiyang City really opened Mo You's eyes!
The frail middle-aged woman was hit by the shopkeeper's wheelbarrow and fell directly to the ground. Before she could recover from the pain, she panicked and turned into a big mouse, and then into a small mouse.
"I should thank the immortal. With these four gold ingots, my mother-in-law and I will not have to worry about anything in the future."
It's just that this little mouse didn't leave immediately after turning into a prototype. Instead, it stared at the shop owner twice, bared its teeth, and glanced at Mo You who followed him back behind the shop owner, and finally left unwillingly.
Got it!
The shop owner didn't pay attention to the little mouse's reaction. He was obviously very anxious when he discovered that a mouse had turned into his mother-in-law. He even ignored the wheelbarrow he was pushing and left it at the door before entering the house. When he found the old man in the house, he was unconscious.
After my wife, I felt relieved.
The monks in Huaiyang City didn't take advantage of it, and even made a grudge against the big rat demon. Even if they tried to buy some milk nuts from the rat demon, they couldn't.
The couple gave birth to a daughter. They were afraid that they would have no one to support them when they grew old, so they always wanted to have a son.
"Rat! You are a rat!"
That demon is a rat demon. Although it only has one, its descendants are extremely numerous.
Whether or not you have a son to support you until you die is your fate. If not, just adopt one from the clan and raise him from childhood to adulthood. There is no difference between him and your own biological son.
The shopkeeper took out the gold in his arms, looked at it twice at his mother-in-law, and then put it in his arms again.
Especially now that the shop owner still has money, and where are the four gold ingots, are the old couple still worried about having no one to provide for them in their old age?
Mo You nodded, saying that it was a good place and she was quite satisfied.
In the end, I don’t know who came up with an idea, saying that it could help these descendants of the rat demon transform!
Once they have taken form, these rats are considered monsters. If they cannot take form, no matter how powerful these big rats are, they are just spiritual beasts.
The milk fruit itself has the medicinal effect of cleansing the essence and clearing the marrow. Although the effect of cleansing the marrow is not as good as the marrow-cleansing pill, it is also an elixir that monks are very eager for.
Four gold ingots, this is money that this shop owner will never make in his lifetime selling sesame cakes!
He pushed the wheelbarrow much faster, as if he was in a hurry.
After being connected to the earth again, information from Huaiyang City poured in. After understanding the whole story clearly, Mo You's expression was cold.
"This is the house of my married eldest daughter. Everything in it is clean. The quilt was just dried two days ago. What do you think, Immortal?"
The couple was a bit obsessed with wanting to have a son. The middle-aged wife tried many folk remedies in order to give birth to a son, but to no avail, she almost ate herself to death!
"Please, Immortal, come in quickly, Immortal."
"Shopkeeper, I'm a little curious about Huaiyang City. Can the shopkeeper tell me what those big rats are about?"
"I will go to the drugstore to get you medicine in a while. You lie down well. Your illness will definitely be cured this time! When you are cured, we will live a good life. Don't think about whether you have children or not in the future. Don't worry about it anymore."
Eat those random recipes, the child didn’t come, and you almost died too.”
"Immortal, the city lord has an order not to allow residents in the city to discuss this matter. If the city lord finds out about this matter..."
After parking the car, the shopkeeper turned around and closed the courtyard door. Then, while greeting Mo You, he picked up the clothes on the wheelbarrow, shook them, and hung them on the clothesline in the courtyard.
Mo You didn't lie to the store owner. She did set up a soundproof circle, and then listened to the store owner whisper and told Mo You intermittently about what happened in the city.
While greeting Mo You, the shopkeeper picked up the clothes that the big rat had been wearing that fell to the ground, put them on the wheelbarrow, and then pushed the wheelbarrow into the yard.
The shopkeeper was very happy and excited. Seeing that Mo You had no other instructions, he said that he wanted to go out and get medicine for the old woman.
The skin of milk fruit is light and thin, and the pulp inside is like a thick milkshake, and the taste is very similar.
The cause of this incident is an elixir called milk fruit.
The middle-aged woman with a sallow face and skinny face rushed towards the shop owner selling sesame seed cakes, as if she wanted to help him push the cart. However, the worried middle-aged shop owner's expression changed and he hit the woman with his wheelbarrow!
Standing in the yard, the smile on Mo You's face completely disappeared.
After walking limping for a while, the middle-aged man suddenly saw a person standing at the door of his house. He laughed when he was far away, and then the look on his face turned into worry.
The shop owner held the four gold ingots and walked out of the side room. He turned around and went to the main room first to stuff the extra four gold ingots under the pillow where the old woman was lying. Then he kept carrying the original two gold ingots.
Out!
After the courtyard door was closed, Mo You came out of the side room.
When the person standing at the door of the hospital saw the sesame seed seller coming back, she smiled and walked out holding on to the door frame. She took the initiative to greet him with a sick look on her face.
If it weren't for Mo You being an immortal and not being offended, the shop owner would have taken a detour to the drug store to grab the medicine when he came back. Now that the person has been settled, he is even more anxious and wants to detoxify the old woman's poison as soon as possible!
This middle-aged man looks old, but he is actually in his thirties and under forty.
The owner of the sesame cake seller pushed a wheelbarrow and led Mo You down the narrow muddy alley. He talked to Mo You along the way and told her not to worry, they would be there soon!
"Go to sleep. I made money today. A fairy from outside planned to stay at our house for two days out of fear of danger. She gave me two ingots of gold!"
"That's it, I understand. Thank you to the store for clarifying my doubts."
This middle-aged man is also an ordinary person making a living in the city, living in a relatively cheap and chaotic civilian area.
The rat demon planted so many milk fruit trees and carefully cultivated and cared for them in order to provide food for future generations to increase the possibility of them transforming.
Mo You smiled and nodded, indicating to the shop owner that she could go, she was fine.
Therefore, after Mo You gave the guarantee, the shop owner was relieved.
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper's eyes turned red.
Now someone said that it could help his descendants transform, which really aroused the interest of the rat demon.
