Zhao Siyi stopped in front of the stall and took a closer look at the stall owner who was squatting on a small stool.
He was an old man, wearing an old, thin jacket with frayed cuffs and collar, several stains of varying sizes on his chest, and gray hair that was messier than a chicken coop, giving him a dirty and smelly look.
But what Zhao Siyi saw were the other person's clean fingernails and a pair of exceptionally bright and penetrating eyes.
Such a huge contrast made Zhao Siyi curious and took a few more glances.
The old man seemed very impatient and cursed:
"What are you looking at! If you want to buy, buy it. If not, get out! Kids these days are becoming less and less respectful of the elderly and the young..."
Zhao Siyi, who always looks like a prick, didn't refute a word.
I just quietly asked how much the wild vegetables were for sale.
The old man reported a number and then continued to curse angrily.
It's like a powder keg.
Zhao Siyi ignored it, squatted down calmly and started to choose.
The old man paused for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice:
"Just buy vegetables, why are you rummaging through them? Can you really make something out of these wild vegetables? You look well-dressed, but I didn't expect you to be so stingy at such a young age, even to the elderly..."
The stall owner next door, because of Sui Sui, also had a good impression of Zhao Siyi, and suddenly couldn't stand it.
"Alright, Mr. Wu, he's just picking out some dishes, why are you scolding him? Do you think he has to give you the money just because you're older?"
The old man, that is, Mr. Wu, immediately glared, his facial muscles trembling, and his mean look became more obvious:
"What's it to you? Are you his father or mother? If you're so worried, why not take him home?"
The stall owner next door is considered to have a good temper.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have stayed at Mr. Wu's stall for so long.
At the moment, he couldn't stand the old man's temper anymore and retorted a few words.
The two started arguing on the spot, and dragged Zhao Siyi, who didn't say a word, into the argument.
When the camera was pointed at this scene, the barrage couldn't help but complain:
[This old man has such a bad temper. Does he think he's the boss? Siyi didn't say a word.]
[Thanks to the stall owner next door for speaking up! [Holding fist!]
So what kind of wild vegetables does Gao Hao eat? He even eats wild vegetables when he's having a barbecue. If he likes them so much, he might as well go dig them himself!
[Si Yi already respected the elderly very much. Given his temper, he was scolded for such a long time without saying anything back.]
[Wow, seeing the little boy at a loss, my heart aches. What should I do?]
Zhao Siyi was indeed a little panicked, after all, this matter was caused by him.
But when he was asked to persuade him, he didn't know what to say and remained silent for a long time.
I saw that the argument between Mr. Wu and the stall owner next door was getting more and more intense.
Gao Hao, and Sui Sui and Wen Chi, who followed closely behind him, also walked nearby.
Gao Hao was very disappointed when he saw this scene.
I was originally happy when I heard the quarrel, but when I walked over, I saw that the person quarreling was not Zhao Siyi at all.
What? He was just lucky enough to get away with it?
Gao Hao deliberately added fuel to the fire and called Zhao Siyi's name, pretending to be anxious:
"What's going on? What happened to Siyi?"
Gao Hao originally wanted to remind the bad-tempered old man not to forget Zhao Siyi's existence.
As a result, Mr. Wu turned around and saw him, and scolded him too!
Old Master Wu relied on his mouth to scold the three people so much that they had no chance to fight back!
Just then, Sui Sui saw the old man.
"Huh?"
She tilted her head in confusion, as if she saw something strange.
The old man who was cursing with saliva flying all over his body suddenly stopped talking and turned to look at Sui Sui.
When their eyes met, Mr. Wu's facial muscles moved.
In an instant, the whole face feels different.
He was originally a mean, mercenary, irritable and annoying old man.
But now he suddenly revealed an unfathomable temperament.
When you look at it more closely, you will think it is an illusion.
Next second.
Mr. Wu hurriedly packed up his stall:
"Not for sale! Not for sale! Go find someone else!"
As he said this, he quickly picked up the backpack and other things, put them on his shoulders and was about to leave.
When he passed Gao Hao on the road, his eyes stayed on him for a few seconds.
Gao Hao inexplicably felt a chill on his back, and his hands and feet felt like they were immersed in ice water.
"Boy, you'll have to pay the price for using me as your arrow..."
The volume, which only the two of them could hear, floated into Gao Hao's ears, startling him.
When he suddenly turned around to look at the old man, he found that he had quickly merged into the crowd and disappeared.
...This series of changes caught everyone off guard.
Zhao Siyi looked bewildered:
"What's going on?"
Wen Chi couldn't figure it out either.
He noticed Sui Sui's small exclamation and thought about asking later:
"Let's go to another stall to buy it."
Zhao Siyi nodded and continued to go to another stall to buy vegetables.
When the group returned to Taoyuan Village, Wen Chi finally had the chance to ask Sui Sui.
Sui Sui rubbed her chin with her little hands, imitating the way military advisors think in TV dramas:
"That old man is really extraordinary!"
"Hmm? What's not simple about it?"
Sui Sui didn't know how to describe to Wen Chi how she felt when she saw him—
It’s like returning to nature, and the aura around the body becomes calm and nothing.
It is too pure and clean, and all the evil and filth are automatically expelled.
...This is a realm that can only be achieved by people with extremely high cultivation strength.
Even the noisy Cen Guangan couldn't reach this level.
Could he be some powerful person from the Xuanmen sect?
Sui Sui blurted out all his guesses.
As an ordinary person, Wen Chi was confused:
"Wait, so that old man... Oh no, no, no, that old man, should be a powerful hermit master? That's not right, then why would he set up a stall to sell vegetables, and his personality is, and so..."
Seeing Sui Sui's innocent little face, Wen Chi automatically swallowed back the following complaints.
Sui Sui spread out his hands, indicating that he didn't know.
Instead, Wen Chi imagined everything himself.
He slapped his head with shining eyes and said:
"I get it! This is experiencing life! It's like that in novels and TV dramas! Maybe that person is on the level of the Sweeping Monk or Hong Qigong!"
As he spoke, Wen Chi was still excitedly imagining that if he met that strange master again, would he want to become his disciple or something?
Sui Sui scratched his face, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.
Forget it, as long as my brother is happy!
Wen Chi suddenly remembered:
"So, Gao Hao's plan has failed?"
Sui Sui nodded happily:
"That's right!"
Wen Chi was also happy:
"Great! Then we need to think about how to expose Gao Hao's true identity to Zhou Lizhi!"
With a good start, Wen Chi is full of confidence in the next plan!
