You don't understand the fairy world

Chapter 58
"This young master has a good eye," the clerk in the store saw that the two of them were well-dressed and imposing, and he had already pricked up his ears to listen. When he heard that Long Xining was interested, he hurriedly greeted, "This bracelet is from our store. The treasure of the town store, the texture of Hetian jade, the carving of Suzhou Chen, such a style, let alone Yecheng, even in Beijing, I am afraid it is not easy to find such a product..."

While talking, the man carefully brought the jade bracelet to Huaiying.Huaiying didn't answer, squinted his eyes and shook his head with a smile that was not a smile: "Forget it, you're ashamed to sell it, but I'm really embarrassed to give it away. If you don't have any other goods in your store, I will Just go somewhere else."

"Wait a minute, madam—" The man immediately knew that he had met someone who knew his business, and quickly apologized with a smile.

Huaiying nodded and glanced at Long Xining again.Long Xining immediately came over to help her up, with a smile on his face, showing a very honored gesture.

The back room is not big, only a few chairs and tea tables are set up, and there is a row of antique shelves along the west wall.There are some porcelain and decorations of different shapes on the shelves, some are coral, some are jasper, and there are some rare things that even Huaiying can't name.

"I really can't see that there are so many treasures in this small shop." Huaiying leaned into Long Xining's ear and asked softly, "Do you have enough money?"

Long Xining coughed lightly and raised his chin: "Don't worry."

Now that he said so, Huaiying naturally lost his scruples, and unceremoniously picked out a whole set of head and face jewelry, which made the guy so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

"That's all?" Long Xining glanced at it, "You don't like anything yourself?" He has been with Huaiying for a long time, and he knows her likes and dislikes. When he saw those few things, he knew they were gifts. , not intended to be used by myself.

"I don't like jewelry very much." These things are strangely heavy, and I use at most two jade hairpins to decorate them on weekdays.But if he didn't use jewelry at all, and didn't talk about other people's comments, I'm afraid Father Xiao couldn't help thinking that she had been wronged.

Long Xining felt helpless, shook his head, and said, "Let's settle the score."

The guy responded immediately and said: "You two wait a moment."

The clerk withdrew the jewelry tray first, while Huaiying and Long Xining waited in the back room while drinking tea.

Someone was talking outside, and it seemed that there were other guests.

"This red bean cake is too sweet." Long Xining said critically, "The tea is not fragrant, it's not the first tea of ​​this year."

"It's good to have your food, and I'm still picky." Huaiying gave him a white look, and then whispered, "I'll go back to the inn in a while, and I'll make another one for you. The head office will do it."

Long Xining immediately smiled: "Huiying is the best for me."

The two of them talked and laughed and waited for a long time but no one came, and they were about to get up and go to the front to ask.

Suddenly, two masked strong men rushed in from outside the door, pointing at them both with sharp knives, stammering: "Hit... rob! Hand over... everything worth... all that is valuable to you!" come out……"

Long Xining looked at them like a fool, Huaiying couldn't help laughing.How could such an unlucky thief bump into Long Xining's head by himself.

Seeing that Huaiying and the others were just staring at themselves without any reaction, the two masked men thought they had been frightened, but one of them rushed over carelessly, saying in a dirty manner: "You... ...Are you stupid...fools, listen...you can't understand people's words, hurry up...money, jewelry..."

His eyes fell on Huaiying's head, seeing that there were no shiny gold and silver jewelry on her head, he was a little disappointed, "It's...unlucky to meet two... two poor ghosts."

Another man hurriedly interrupted him and said, "What are you talking about, I didn't see that this shelf is full of good things, let's take them all away."

Sure enough, the two of them stopped talking to Huaiying and Long Xining, the two poor ghosts, and found two sacks from nowhere, and stuffed all the things on the Bogu rack into the sacks.

"Take it easy, don't... don't break it, it's worth more than your... head." The stuttering man felt distressed when he saw another man with rough hands and feet almost smashing the porcelain bottle in his hand. Terrible, couldn't help shouting loudly.

Long Xining couldn't stand it any longer, sighed, and said in a low voice, "It's better not to move, to save you having to move out later, it's all because of your hard work."

"What... what do you mean?" Stuttering immediately became alert, but just after he finished speaking, he was kicked in the chest, and the whole person flew backwards like a kite off the line, flying a full two meters high, until he hit the ground On the door, it fell down and made a muffled "bang".

The other big man looked dumbfounded. Seeing Long Xining looking at him again, he trembled in fright, threw the things in his hand hastily, and fled out scrambling.

Long Xi Ning probed the ashes that didn't exist on his body, and snorted contemptuously: "Things without eyes actually snatched into our Long's shop, they deserve it."

"What?" Long... Long's shop?They still have a shop?

Long Xining pretended to be indifferent: "My third brother drove it, and it is everywhere in Daliang Dynasty. At the end of every year, the old man brings New Year's gifts. You, you have been married for so long, and you never pay attention to these things." After all, he also put on an expression of what to do with you, Huaiying didn't know what to say.

No wonder he had a rich and powerful attitude just now!
There were five or six robbers who came, except for the two just now, the rest were outside the shop, and when they saw their accomplices escaping, they wanted to flee immediately.They were relieved when they heard that there were only two young people in the room, a man and a woman.There are so many of them, so they don't have to be afraid when they rush forward.

Long Xining took Huaiying's hand and walked out of the back room swaggeringly.I saw two clerks tied up in a corner dejectedly, with a cloth stuffed in their mouths, and several customers in the store squatted on the ground with their heads bowed, not daring to move.

"Dare to do evil in broad daylight, who gave you the courage?" Long Xining had a lazy attitude, and casually dragged the chair for guests in the shop to Huaiying to sit in front of her, and sat down beside her. Standing up, his gaze swept across the faces of those robbers, with half-smiles.

His old-fashioned attitude made the robbers a little guilty, and they looked at each other, and one of the older men said in a low voice: "Young master, I don't think your accent is like that of Yecheng. People, everyone does not interfere with the water of the river, you walk your sunny path, and I cross my single-plank bridge, why do you bother with such nosy things and get yourself into trouble?"

Long Xining laughed out loud immediately: "Is that so, I'm really scared." He used his brain, and unexpectedly came up with some meaning, then turned his head and asked Huaiying, "I listened to what he said. A character here? But, if it’s really a character, why are you still hiding it and hiding it?”

The faces of the robbers became more and more ugly, and the man who spoke before sneered: "Since the young master does not listen to persuasion, don't blame our ruthless subordinates." He winked at the crowd, and the robbers swarmed On the ground, there was a dagger in his hand, and the cold light was shining, which was really scary.

It was Huaiying before, seeing this posture, she must have been so frightened that she didn't dare to show her breath, but now, she has seen all kinds of scenes, and she has magical powers to protect her body, so she is naturally not afraid, and she looks at the dragon with a smile like a joke. tin muddy.

A few ordinary bandits were no match for His Royal Highness the Dragon King. Before they got close, they were thrown out viciously as if they had hit an invisible wall. There was a chaotic sound of "bang bang bang dang", all the knives and daggers in the hands of the robbers flew out of the door, and fell in a haphazard manner on the street, scaring the passers-by outside to run away.

The group of robbers had never seen such a master before, they were all dumbfounded, turned around and fled outside after reacting.How could Long Xining let them go, hooked his fingers, and the door was closed tightly with a "bang", no matter how hard the robbers tried, they couldn't open it.

The robbers made a mess at the gate, and Long Xining got up slowly and untied the ropes on the two guys.

"Thank you for your help, young man—" Before the guy finished speaking, Long Xining interrupted impatiently with a wave of his hand, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, and report to the police immediately."

The guy's face turned pale, and he got up in a panic and wanted to run out, but he didn't dare to move when he reached the door, watching the group of robbers retreating uneasily.

The robbers couldn't get out, and they didn't dare to attack Long Xining. Looking around, they saw the two guests who had been squatting in the corner without any sense of presence.As if they had found a life-saving straw, they rushed forward, grabbed the two people in front of them, grabbed the two people's necks, and said fiercely to Long Xining: "You...you get out of the way, or else , don’t blame me for being rude to them.”

It was only then that Huaiying noticed that they were actually two young girls, about sixteen or seventeen years old, one of them should be a servant girl, and the other was more gorgeously dressed, beautiful and pitiful, but there was a faint air of dust in her eyebrows and eyes.

The two girls were so frightened that they burst into tears, they wanted to ask for help but they couldn't make a sound at all, they just looked at Long Xining with a sad expression on their faces.

Long Xining acted as if he hadn't seen it, and said to the stunned man, "What are you doing standing there, hurry up and report to the authorities."

The guy quickly turned around and pulled the door.He opened the door with a light pull. The clerk was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at Long Xining with twinkling eyes, and rushed out quickly.Seeing this, the robbers in the house also wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but the door was locked again with a "bang" as if it had eyes.

Long Xining poured a cup of tea slowly and handed it to Huaiying, and said softly, "It's rare to come out to go shopping with you, and it's really unlucky to encounter such a thing."

Huaiying smiled: "It's not bad luck, this is my own shop anyway. They dare to act recklessly in broad daylight. The public security in Yecheng is really worrying."

Only then did the robbers realize that they had snatched the boss, and even the remaining guy in the store widened his eyes in disbelief, pointed at Long Xining, "You, you..." for a long time, and then said: " No...not right, I have seen our boss..."

Long Xining glared at him impatiently, and said: "You don't even know who the owner is, how did you open this shop? You also said that you have seen the owner before. How could my third brother have been here in such a small place?" ?”

The boy flinched a little, not daring to make a sound anymore.

Seeing that Long Xining didn't take the hostages in their hands seriously, the robbers were immediately angry and anxious, but they couldn't think of anything else, sweating profusely.

The guy who threatened Long Xining before changed his attitude again: "Young master, we are all people in the world, why make things so rigid. As the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress a local snake, since your shop still wants to be in Ye If the city continues to develop, there is really no need to make enemies with us. You are a foreign guest, and you don’t know the rules of our Ye city. They will be released. By then, your shop may not be able to continue operating in Yecheng."

Long Xining smiled instead of anger: "Are you trying to tell me that there are people from you in the government of Yecheng? I want to see what kind of official he is, who not only dares to collude with the gangsters secretly, but also makes us The shop of Long’s family can’t keep going.”

Those robbers looked at each other, and someone said in a low voice: "Brother, don't believe him, he deliberately scares you. This shop has been open in Ye City for several years, and there is really something behind it, can we not know?"

The leading robber sneered a few times, found a seat and sat in the shop waiting for the arrival of the official.As for the two young girls who were held hostage, they were also thrown aside.

Soon, the previous guy led the arrester back.

"It's them!" The man said excitedly, pointing at the robbers, and then hurried forward and said, "Thank you for your help, my lord, otherwise, we would have suffered a big loss today."

"He...he said he was our boss." Another boy said, and then asked, "Brother Shan, didn't you come to the young boss's house last time?"

"That's not it." The clerk shook his head and said, "My master has never been to Yecheng, and I haven't even seen the shopkeeper, let alone us."

When the two were talking, the policemen had already tied up all the robbers and pushed them out one by one, which seemed to be a gesture of impartial law enforcement.

"Wait—" Long Xining said suddenly, "Since everyone has been arrested, what are you doing covering your face? Just now, these people threatened that they have something to do with the government, and they will let our shop open in Yecheng in the future." If they don’t go down, could it be that they really know people in the government?”

The arresters were taken aback, and the robbers all looked at him with a cold look in their eyes.

"This young master is joking." One of the head catchers smiled and said, "They are talking nonsense, how can they believe it. If you don't believe me, young master, you can follow us to the yamen to hear the judgment."

"That's okay, let's go together." Long Xining took over the conversation and said, "I just have nothing to do, so I went to see the excitement. Right, Huaiying."

Huaiying didn't stop him, but smiled and agreed.

Those head catchers didn't expect that he would actually follow him, their faces changed slightly, but the head catcher remained as usual, politely guiding Long Xi Ning.

"Wait a minute." Someone in the room suddenly called out, it was the young woman who had been kidnapped before, "We will go too." The prettier woman said, her pretty face tensed, and she said coldly Glancing at Long Xining and Huaiying, he snorted and walked ahead.

Long Xining was a little unhappy, and muttered in a low voice: "Why is she joining in the fun with the past?"

Huaiying grabbed him and glared at him quietly: "It's none of your business, your mouth is really annoying."

Long Xining was a little aggrieved: "I can't stand her pretending to be pretending to cry. She is obviously a monster, but she pretends to be weak..."

Good mortal world, why are there so many monsters!
A group of people went out like this, and walked in the direction of the county government.

Those policemen seemed not to have heard Long Xining's order, and they didn't ask the robbers to take off the veils on their faces.Long Xining didn't make a sound, just smiled.As soon as Huaiying saw his appearance, she knew that he was going to play tricks, so she followed him with a slight smile and waited for a good show.

Just when they reached the crossroads, a gust of evil wind blew from nowhere and blew on the robbers, almost blowing off their clothes, not to mention the veils on their faces.By the time the robbers came back to their senses and tried to pick them up and cover their faces, someone on the street had already recognized them.

"Oh, isn't that the second child of the Liu family in Xicheng Lane? Why was he arrested? What kind of wicked thing did he do this time?"

"So what if you catch him, he and the county magistrate are relatives, and he will be released in a while. But don't fold in the young man who reported to the official. Look at that young man, he looks so handsome... tsk tsk..."

Yecheng is not big, but it is not small. The people in the city think they have seen the world, but they have never seen such a handsome young man. They all squeezed to both sides of the street to watch the excitement, and even more so. Some bold women quietly took off the veils on their bodies and threw them at Long Xining.

Long Xining was about to die of anger!

When I arrived at the county government office, the county magistrate was not there. He said that a distinguished guest had come from the capital and was waiting outside the city to greet him.The arresters took the robbers into prison, and politely said: "If you are in a hurry, son, go back first, and let you know when there is a letter of approval from the yamen."

The people in the county government office are all smart people, and they have long seen that Long Xining's identity is unusual, so he didn't dare to mess around, so even though he knew that the robbers had something to do with the county master, he still brought them back.As for what to do next, isn't it all up to the county master?
Long Xining was a little impatient: "He's from Beijing, what's his name and what do he do?"

Seeing this, the head catcher felt that he could not be provoked, and replied respectfully: "This... I don't know very well, I heard that it is an official who went south to take up his post, and happened to hit us in Yecheng."

That is not an ordinary official, it is said that he is a son of a family in the capital, a celebrity in front of His Majesty the Emperor.Ever since I heard that the lord was going to pass through Yecheng, the county magistrate has been waiting several days in advance.
