"That's enough, that's enough." The paper man dragged his flat body over, rubbing his palms together and chuckling, "To be honest, I still have some gold left over from the two of you just gave me. I should have given you some change, but you two are obviously wealthy people, so you definitely don't care about those small change. But I can't just take your reward for nothing, so I thought I'd show you a secret channel. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel safe with the reward..."
"Since you are not at ease, then get the change back." Xie Beiming interrupted.
The chattering paper figure was startled, probably not expecting Xie Beiming to react like this. He said awkwardly, "Sir, you..."
He wanted to say, sir, this isn't a good thing.
However, the young master's eyes were too terrifying, so he didn't dare to say anything. He immediately regretted it and secretly annoyed himself for being greedy and making this trip.
But since the gold was already in his pocket, it was impossible to ask him to take it out.
The paper man reacted quickly and quickly changed his tone, "Sir, you really know how to joke, haha. But for someone as humorous as you, it's normal to like to joke, haha!"
He laughed and turned to Chen Qiqi and said, "My dear, I mainly sell daily necessities. For example, the book 'Thirty-six and Seventy-two Moves in Bed' that you just bought can be found in the Tongtian Bookstore on West Street. They have all kinds of books, including the secret books of the City Lord and his wife..."
"By the way, young lady, when you check out, mention my name and say that it was Chu Jiaren from the East Street Grocery Store who recommended this to you. The bookstore can even give you a discount."
Discounts are impossible, but he must be compensated for his hard work in attracting customers.
This was a customer he had recruited at the risk of having his neck broken. If Tongtian Bookstore dared to go against their conscience and take his hard work fee, he would hang himself at the door of the bookstore with a hemp rope.
After the grocery store owner named Chu Jiaren finished speaking, she quickly dragged her flat body away, fearing that if she ran too slowly, her neck would be broken by Xie Beiming.
Oh my god, it was so scary, that man’s eyes almost pierced him into a hole!
Chu Jiaren ran back to the grocery store in one breath, then slipped into the backyard, closed the door, and then held her chest and gasped.
A beautiful woman heard the noise and came out. Seeing that he looked terrified, she frowned and asked, "Boss, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you? Tell me, and I'll kill him. You dare to bully my Pig-Headed Xishi? You're looking for death!"
This person is none other than the Pig-headed Xishi who is afraid that Shen Ning'er will snatch her body away because of her outstanding appearance.
Ever since the day when the headless ghost told her that Shen Ning'er had set his sights on her body and wanted to take it away for himself, Pig-headed Xishi was so scared that she didn't even dare to open the braised meat shop and hid herself with her old lover Chu Jiaren.
Just wait until Chu Jiaren saves enough money so that I can take her away.
Chu Jiaren is her only support, so naturally she cannot let anyone bully her.
As Pig-headed Xishi spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and reached for her butcher knife.
Chu Jiaren hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Alright, alright, no one is bullying me... You can't go out and wander around now, or you might get caught by the new guardian and have your skin peeled off."
When the beautiful lady heard this, she shuddered instantly and her face turned pale with fear.
Chu Jiaren hurriedly comforted her: "It will be fine if you just stay here quietly. Let's endure for a while. When I have saved enough money, I will take you far away."
The beautiful woman's face finally regained its color. She nestled into Chu Jiaren's arms like a little bird, drawing circles on his chest with her fingers. She said with emotion: "Jiaren, you are so good to me... By the way, Jiaren, did you encounter anything terrible outside just now?"
Chu Jiaren then explained the whole story to Pig-headed Xishi. Finally, she sighed, "Those two human cultivators are so bold! They actually walked around the street so openly."
"A human monk? No way? So bold? My dear, could you be mistaken?"
"There's no doubt about it. The most powerful thing about our clan is our sense of smell. Even though those two hid their auras, I could still smell the spiritual energy on them. It's very strong and powerful."
"Is that so? Then should we tell the city lord?"
"Let's not talk about it for now. I've already thought about it. Let those two people be your escape route. If you are accidentally caught by the new guardian, I will go to the city lord and confess them. I will use their lives in exchange for yours."
"But what if they run away?"
"Run? Where to run? Without the City Lord's entry and exit token, none of them can leave this Nine Nether City!"
Shen Qiqi still didn't know that she was trapped in Jiuyou City.
Her face was as red as the morning glow, and she looked embarrassed, so embarrassed that she could dig a big hole with her toes.
Who would have thought that a grocery store would sell books like that!
Who would have thought that she would happen to point to that kind of book!
"Thirty-six Moves and Seventy-two Styles in Bed"... Tsk tsk, it doesn't sound like a good book. No wonder Xie Beiming refused to take it out and show it to her!
Shen Qiqi's face was so hot that it felt like she could make pancakes directly by pouring a spoonful of batter on it.
Just as he was looking around, thinking about how to resolve this awkward situation, he suddenly heard Xie Beiming say, "Let's go to Tongtian Bookstore."
"Oh...ah? Where are we going? Tongtian Bookstore?!"
Shen Qiqi suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Xie Beiming with shock on her face.
—Have you heard of Tongtian Bookstore? They have a lot of books like this!
The words of the grocery store owner Chu Jiaren are still fresh in my mind.
