After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Because he was riding a brown bear, a mount that was too weird for most people, in order not to cause unnecessary panic and be treated as an alien, Xu Boan stopped Xiong Da far away on the top of the mountain.

Standing in the mountains and looking far away, Xu Boan saw a long street in the distance filled with antique buildings. Of course, it was just a market town after all, and there were no too luxurious buildings. There were even some thatched sheds built on both sides of the street. .

The bustling crowds on the streets and the hawkers selling on the streets all reveal a strong ancient atmosphere.

Xu Bo'an patted Xiong Da's head and said: "Xiong Da's head, I'm going to go there in a while to buy some clothes. You and Dachuan can play here first, and remember to protect Dachuan."

The bear's big paws rubbed the ground twice, and he replied obediently: "Understood, sir, I am in the surrounding mountains and forests and will not run around."

Because the language of bears is different from that of pangolins, Xu Bo'an said to the pangolins again: "Dachuan, you and Xiong Da are playing together here, and don't leave Xiong Da too far. I have already told it, and it will protect you. "

Hearing Xu Boan's words, the pangolin beast said with some worry: "Master Mountain God, I want to follow you, I don't want to be here, please let me be with you!"

Xu Bo'an pointed to the lively scene on the street of the market town in the distance and said: "You should also know that your pangolin clan is a treasure worth thousands of gold in the eyes of countless hunters and even ordinary people. There are so many people over there now, If you are discovered by someone with ulterior motives, be careful of those people plotting against you. "

"Lord Mountain God will protect me, right?" Upon hearing this, the mountain beast trembled a little anxiously, as if thinking of the terrible consequences, and then said with lingering fear.

Xu Boan shook his head and said: "Of course I want to protect you, but you also know that your attractiveness is enough to attract many desperadoes. I'm afraid that if there is any negligence, then I won't be able to protect you." That’s great.”

In order to manage this newly born commercial gathering place, the local gentry and wealthy households have agreed to carry out local self-government at the local level. This was considered tacitly approved by the yamen above.

Xu Bo'an stretched out his hand and stroked the mountain beast's back twice, and said: "Okay, it's nothing. Xiong Da is my little mountain-protecting little hairy god. He is much better behaved than you. He will definitely abide by my words."

However, because of instigating the exodus of people, Wang Guifen was regarded as an ominous person by the wealthy gentry households around Hongya Village. This led to Xu Bo'an's subsequent rescue, and it also allowed Xu Bo'an to see the scale of the market town for the first time. .

Xu Bo'an explained casually: "To put it simply, they are people who want money rather than their lives! Think about it, have any of your pangolin friends been captured by hunters because of greed or other reasons?"

Strictly speaking, the Da Jing Dynasty did not have the administrative level of "town", at least not officially. The court would not send officials or other managers with official background to this level.

As the pangolin spoke, he pointed tremblingly at the brown bear below, wagging his tail worriedly.

Unless there is a murder case, the county government will usually not be alerted.

The pangolin beast was silent for a while after hearing this, as if thinking about something, then it slid down on Xu Boan's shoulder, then climbed onto the other shoulder, and said close to Xu Boan's ear: "But sir, this big guy, I'm scared too."

Xu Bo'an told the two guys to pay attention to their safety, and then walked alone towards the lively streets in the distance.

"But..." The mountain beast still wanted to say something worried.

Later, because Wang Guifen returned to her parents' home to preach, she wanted to take people back to the backing village to complete Xu Bo'an's plan to expand the backing village.

Xishan Market Town is often mentioned by people because the large market formed here has attracted many people to gather, just like a large village.

In fact, Xu Bo'an used earth escape and perspective techniques to observe the surrounding environment at the Tushan Temple in Hongya Village before. Although he has not yet reached the big market, the distance is not far away. This place is because of Due to the large number of people and gatherings, the roads are well maintained and easy to walk on.

This gave the later Shanyang Ling and Niu Twelve the opportunity to pray to Xu Boan, the mountain god grandfather.

"Sir, what is a desperado?" the mountain beast asked curiously.

"Zhi, that's fine, I'll just stay." Pangolin said with some reluctance.

Hongya Village is the natal home of Wang Guifen, the mother-in-law of Li Erhu, a villager in Kaoshan Village. It is not far from Xishan Town. It was she who accidentally opened the Hongya Village Tushan Temple sub-base when she returned to her natal home earlier.

Only then did Xu Boan realize that the reason why the pangolin wanted to follow him was because he was a little afraid of Xiong Da.

Xu Bo'an comforted him: "Don't worry, Xiong Da won't hurt you. I've already told him to protect you."

After all, the scope of a county is too large, and the few people in the county government would be too busy to take care of trivial matters.

After all, in the eyes of many animals, the deterrent power of brown bears is first-rate.

Xu Bo'an was moving very fast, and he didn't slow down until he was almost close to this bustling street.

Looking carefully, although this street is not comparable to the pedestrian streets in modern society, it is still in a complete state.

The long dirt road has been trampled by people for a long time and has become as hard as a pipe. People coming from south to north are flowing continuously on the street.

There are many kinds of stalls, including those selling farm tools, livestock, food, and performing acrobatics.

In addition to some stalls placed outside, there are also various shops with their doors open, and the waiters at the door warmly greeting people passing by.

"Please come in, sir. The store's newly developed sauce meat is particularly suitable for drinking."

"Miss, come here. We have new styles of jewelry. We have a lot of hairpins and bracelets. You must be interested in something."

"All you gentlemen, please come in and take a look. The troupe we invited from Qingmu Mansion has a great new song. It will start soon."

……

The shouts from each household were louder and louder, giving the appearance of a beating.

Xu Bo'an wandered around for a while and saw a cloth shop not far away soliciting customers outside the door. He lowered his head and saw that the modern clothes on his body were in tatters and were out of tune with the people around him. He decided to finish the clothes first.

At the door of the cloth store, a middle-aged man was shouting.

"People who come from the south, people who go north, people who have been to Kyoto, people who have been to Beimang, people who have traveled south, people who have traveled to the north, people who have swam in the mountains, people who have played in the water, people from Qingyun Road, people from Qingmu Mansion, all come to see Look at our new fabrics.”

"You can never suffer a loss or be fooled. Once you enter the door, you will have lifelong friends. Once you get a cut, you will be satisfied for a lifetime." Xu Bo'an is not picky about appearance and dress. At this moment, he heard this person yelling interestingly, and immediately decided to come here to buy. clothing.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard the shouting middle-aged man's voice suddenly stop.

"Get away, you stinky beggar, this is a place you can afford to come to."

Well, this is being treated as a beggar.

Xu Bo'an explained helplessly: "I'm here to buy clothes, not begging for food."

"Hey, buying clothes! Just you? Show me your money first. I'm afraid you can't even afford a pair of pants."

The depressed person in Xu Boyan's heart never expected to be despised by others.

Just as he was thinking about showing off his strength, Xu Bo was suddenly shocked and thought of a key question.

I don’t blame others for looking down on me, it seems like I really don’t have any money on me!
Because Xu Bo'an entered the bonsai world in a hurry, he came here penniless.

And because he was used to paying with mobile phones in the real world, Xu Boan didn't even think of making some money.

Therefore, there was such an embarrassing scene.

Seeing that Xu Bo'an was suddenly speechless, the middle-aged man became even more proud. He looked at Xu Bo'an with contempt and said, "How about it, did you get what I said? You also said that you are not here to beg for food, and you don't even have money." You're so funny when you come to the door and say you want to buy something."

Xu Boan did not continue to refute, after all, it was a fact that he had no money.

And clothes are not as cheap as a bun or a steamed bun, so naturally I can't expect others to give them to me for free.

However, with the pangolin waiting on the nearby hilltop, Xu Bo'an was not too worried about the money issue. After all, the pangolin knew how to lay "golden beans".

When the time comes, just take one out and exchange it for silver. Buying a set of clothes is not a trivial matter!
Xu Boan turned around and was about to leave when he heard a pleasant voice coming from his ear.

"Wait a minute. Let's make him some clothes. Just put the money in my account. When I come to pick up my clothes in a few days, I'll just pay them together."

Xu Bo'an looked for his voice and saw a beautiful-looking woman coming out of the cloth shop. The words just now came from her mouth.

This woman appeared to be in her twenties. Her skin was as white as snow and as delicate as jade, as if it had been carefully carved without a single flaw.

The jet-black hair was skillfully combed into an elegant bun, with a delicate hosta inserted on it, adding a bit of nobility and elegance. Two strands of hair hang down by the ears, fluttering gently, giving people a gentle and smart feeling.

A pair of eyebrows are slender and curved, like willow leaves, giving people a gentle and delicate feeling.

Her eyes are bright and deep, like two black gems in the autumn water, shining with intelligence and agility.

The woman was also very well-dressed, wearing a pale pink dress that swayed gently, like a blooming peach blossom. The fabric of the long skirt is fine and soft, and it is embroidered with exquisite patterns. It doesn't look cheap at first glance.

Her manners are even more elegant and generous. She walks with a light gait, as if a lotus grows at each step, and her every move exudes a noble temperament.

Hearing what the woman said, the man who was doing the cloth hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, this lady is really kind-hearted. Then what price do you want to give her for the clothes?"

The woman shook her head and said: "It's going to cool down at night these days, so come with tight-fitting cold-resistant clothes. As for the price, about five hundred yuan should be able to make a set of cold-resistant clothes. Within this range, you can let him go in and do it yourself." Just choose.”

"Okay, I understand, miss." The store owner said happily, and then scolded Xu Bo'an: "You beggar is really lucky, why don't you thank this bodhisattva-hearted lady."

Xu Bo'an was initially a little surprised by this sudden incident, but later he felt that the woman's dress was very beautiful, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

After all, in the past, whether it was Sun Weiwei from Sun Jiyin House or Chen Shishi, the courtesan, when Xu Boan met them, they all looked like little people. Although Xu Boan had seen them with his own eyes, they were far from this. It’s intuitive to come face to face.

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Xu Bo'an came back to his senses and hurriedly said "Oh" and said: "Thank you very much, young lady. I dare to ask this young lady her name and where she lives. I will repay you double the favor you received today." "

The woman was accompanied by a girl dressed as a maid. Xu Boan subconsciously stared at the woman for a few times. The maid pursed her lips unhappily. Seeing Xu Boan ask such a question, the maid said unhappily. : "Hey, you are such a rude beggar. Our lady is kind enough to help you, but why are you so rude! Can you guys like you guys just ask about the girl's name and residence?"

When Xu Boan heard this, he realized that he was being a little abrupt.

After all, Xu Bo'an didn't know some of the rules in the bonsai world, so he was at fault in this matter.

Xu Bo'an said apologetically: "I'm really sorry. I'm new here and I'm a little confused about this. I've offended you. I hope you'll forgive me."

The woman smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, don't blame those who don't know. Okay, Chunlan, let's go." The second half of the sentence was directed at her maid. After that, she ignored Xu Bo'an and looked at herself. Go forward.

"Okay, young lady." The maid Chunlan responded and followed her young lady, taking a step forward.

Xu Bo'an didn't want to fall out of favor, so he couldn't help but said: "Miss, I'll lend you today's money. I will definitely repay you double the money. I will do what I say."

Xu Boan has this confidence. After all, he is a mountain god. It is not difficult to find someone here with God's vision.

The woman muttered a few words without looking back, and walked towards the carriage parked on the road not far away. The maid named Chunlan nodded, turned around and walked towards Xu Bo'an.

Then Chunlan said arrogantly: "Our young lady said that she didn't refute after seeing you being scolded by the store. She must be a polite person. She must have encountered difficulties when she came here, so she helped you out of kindness. A handful, there is no need to say these words of return, and don’t pester our young lady anymore. If our master finds out, you will be left without food. "

After saying that, Chunlan turned around and got into the carriage.

Xu Bo'an smiled bitterly, watched the carriage leave, and then walked in towards the gate of the cloth store. (End of chapter)
