Chapter 10: The sudden change when entering the city
Seeing that her younger brother and sister were so sensible, Lu Jinnian also went out with peace of mind.
Of course, she went empty-handed, as she had no tools.
She had memorized the route along the way, so she was not afraid of not finding the children. Anyway, she would find the place by following the river.
After leaving, she did not go directly to the city, but went hunting first.
The weather was good today, and little wild rabbits and other things came out.
She took a bow and arrow and shot randomly, successfully getting a five-kill, and then entered the space with her things.
She hadn't had any decent clothes for a month, so she had to look for them.
Ancient clothes are different from modern clothes, and they can't be worn in rags, otherwise, even if she was holding a pig, people would not let her into the city.
Lu Jinnian searched for a long time and finally found a set of Hanfu, but it was different from modern clothes and the size was not suitable, so it needed to be altered.
The modification of clothes was simple, but the image also needed to be changed.
She found a place to take a cold shower, and then went into the space to change clothes.
There were not many people in this place, so she would not be seen easily, which was also worry-free.
The original owner was very beautiful, with narrow and long phoenix eyes that made her look very cold. Her eyebrows were a little messy, and it would be more appropriate if she slightly modified them into sword
eyebrows. Her high nose bridge was just right, and her lips were a little thin. Malnutrition made her look pale and weak.
She had never washed her face during the long period of fleeing famine, and now she was clean, she was really amazing.
After trimming her eyebrows, she tied her hair and tied it with a hairband.
Because of her pierced ears, she could only leave more sideburns so that they would not be seen.
Lu Jinnian looked at the handsome young man in the mirror and was very satisfied. It was okay.
This thin body, plus a height of 1.68 meters, was almost the same as that of a young man who had just become an adult.
After dressing up, she walked directly to the city empty-handed. Anyway, there was a space, so why should she carry things all the time?
After walking for about two hours, they finally arrived.
It must be said that they walked too far, and this was still fast. If they walked slower, they would not be able to reach the place in three hours.
When they were about to arrive, Lu Jinnian took out the rabbit in the space and came to the city gate.
This time, after changing her clothes, the guards at the gate did not question her too much. They let her in after checking her.
Lu Jinnian noticed that there were many refugees gathered under the city wall, but that was not what she needed to worry about.
It was already very difficult to get into the city now, and she could not care so much about other people.
After entering the city, she found that it was not very good inside. There were some dilapidated houses at the edge, and the further you went in, the more prosperous it became.
This kind of quaint building opened her eyes.
It's not that I haven't been to the ancient city for tourism before, but they were all restored and there was nothing good to see.
Now I can see this kind of real building, which really looks very impressive.
Looking at the endless street, it is estimated that this Jincheng is very big.
There were small vendors hawking around, and there were waiters shouting at the door of the big restaurant.
Lu Jinnian looked around and was ready to see if the restaurant wanted the hare.
At this time, a man in his thirties stopped him.
"Brother, are you going to sell this hare?" He stared at the hare.
"Sell it." Lu Jinnian lowered his voice and looked up and down at the man in front of him.
He was wearing a short, rough cloth shirt and looked big and strong.
He looked like someone who was not easy to mess with, but since it was a business, one could not judge a person by his appearance.
The man rolled his eyes and said, "How about five cents for a rabbit? Look at your rabbit, it's too thin and doesn't have much meat."
Hearing this, Lu Jinnian laughed directly. She said, "Since it's thin and small, why did you buy it?"
Aren't you just trying to lower the price? And you're talking too much. The smallest of these five rabbits is more than four pounds, and the largest is more than five pounds.
"Hehe." The man didn't get angry. "I think this rabbit is really good. How much do you want to sell it for?"
How much?
Lu Jinnian thought about it. She didn't know how much this thing would sell for. She didn't see anyone buying wild rabbits along the way.
But it must be more than the five cents this person gave, this is certain.
"How much do you think is appropriate?" She was not in a hurry. Anyway, if she couldn't sell it, she could put it in the space, and she didn't worry about it going bad.
Hearing this, the man frowned, thought about it and said, "Then seven cents, at most."
"Okay." Lu Jinnian didn't say anything else and nodded in agreement.
The two of them had agreed, but the man did not take the money. Instead
, he pointed to the alley not far away and said, "Let's go over there to pay. My home is over there, and I didn't bring enough money when I came out." When he spoke, his eyes moved around, and he looked like a bad guy.
Lu Jinnian was not afraid of these crooked ways, so he smiled and nodded in agreement.
Want to rob the thieves, right?
She wanted to see how this man would rob her.
The man was quite surprised to see that she agreed, but he was more happy than surprised, and he followed her to the alley.
There were no two people in the alley, and the man's face changed after just a few steps.
"Hehe, kid, get the rabbit out of here! Otherwise, when I take action, it won't be a good thing." He had a smirk on his face, and his eyes were full of greed as he stared at the rabbit.
Lu Jinnian was very surprised and scared when he saw him do this.
"Ah? You...you can't do this." She said fearfully, "You agreed to give me money."
Hehe, when it comes to acting, she likes to play the pig and eat the tiger!
The man on the other side gritted his teeth, "You want money? You still dare to ask for money?"
"You said one is seven coins, five is thirty-five coins, you have to give it to me." Lu Jinnian's face was full of fear and stubbornness, and he wanted the money.
The man was a little impatient, and he was about to grab it.
Lu Jinnian narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that it would not be too much to break one of his arms?
Such a person, dare to steal things, he will be considered stubborn if he is not killed in the end of the world.
Just when the man stretched out his hand to grab, a voice came.
"Stop!"
Lu Jinnian and the man on the other side looked at each other, and there was a young lady in noble clothes standing not far away, with two guards and a maid.
"You!" The man wanted to get angry, but when he saw the guards behind the lady, he stopped talking.
"Don't stop? How dare you steal things in broad daylight!" The little girl pointed at the person on the other side and motioned the guards to go over.
Seeing this scene, the man was so scared that he turned around and ran away, running so fast.
Lu Jinnian blinked and looked at the people on the other side. Four people had already walked over.
The girl was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a gentle and lovely appearance. She asked with a smile on her face, "Sir, are you okay?"
"No, thank you." Lu Jinnian nodded in thanks. Although she could deal with the man herself, he was kind-hearted, so she should thank him.
