Chapter 404: Is it really happiness if life span is used as currency?
The woman in green robe picked up the dark blue token and placed it on her forehead.
At this time, Su Mu noticed that there was a red dot on the woman's forehead, like a cinnabar mole. It looked cool, but also a little charming.
As the Cinnabar Mole emitted a faint light, it absorbed something from the token.
After finishing, the woman in green robe presented the blue-black token with both hands, bent slightly, and returned it to Du Ziren.
"I feel embarrassed." Su Mu said embarrassedly after seeing Du Ziren bought it for him.
Hearing this, Du Ziren waved his hand and replied with a smile: "Not much, not much, as long as the senior likes it."
Hearing the word "senior", the green-robed woman's beautiful eyes were startled. She looked at Su Mu with shock in her pupils, and a little light flashed in them.
This gentleman actually called this handsome man in front of him "Senior"? !
After buying the hairpins, the three of them left the stall and continued walking forward.
"It seems that the currency circulating in your city is not spirit stones." Su Mu was very thoughtful. From the performance of the female stall owner, he could analyze that spirit stones were not the currency circulating in this city.
"I still can't hide it from you, Senior. We do have a special currency here."
Du Ziren said with a smile.
In fact, the "one thousand" mentioned by the woman in green robe did not mean "one thousand spirit stones", but one thousand years!
That’s right, “Shouyuan” is the only currency in circulation here.
Walking on the streets, Su Mu could feel that most of the people living here seemed very happy and got along very harmoniously. Basically, there were no fights or disturbances.
"Not bad, the people here all seem to be doing well and are very happy."
After these words were spoken, Du Ziren and King Lunzhuan looked at each other and did not answer the question.
Because they don’t know the deeper meaning of what the senior said.
Are they really "happy"?
Why did the seniors use the word "happiness"?
The two smiled bitterly and did not answer the question, nor did they dare to answer it.
This question involved too many obscure things, and they didn't dare to answer it for fear of saying something wrong.
So the only way is to keep silent.
It can only be said that their level is not high enough. Regarding such issues involving substantive origins, there seems to be no other solution except avoiding them and keeping silent after an awkward smile.
The three of them were walking on the street. Everywhere they looked, there were bright lights and lanterns. The pedestrians around them were busy with their own things. Some were shouting at their own stalls, and some were in the restaurant, waving silk scarves and shouting at passers-by on the street to come upstairs for a drink.
It seemed that everyone had his or her own purpose and life, and they all played their own roles in this ancient city. Everything seemed very natural, so natural that Su Mu did not even notice it. He looked around this strange ancient city with an admiring gaze.
The three of them didn't know how far they had walked, as they were walking on the streets in many twists and turns, but if you looked closely, you would find that they were moving towards the center.
After walking for about a few hours, Su Mu was patrolling the city with an appreciative and cursory gaze.
Perhaps it was because he had been on the river for too long and had come into contact with some difficult situations, such as damaged dams, overgrown weeds, widespread pollution, and dead fish. Su Mu was tired of seeing these scenes.
But there was no other way, he had to do it, he had to do these boring things, just to refine the river as quickly as possible and complete the first task.
At the beginning, Su Mu was lonely, like a wandering ghost, wandering on this silent river, dealing with these boring things day after day, year after year. It was like if he came across a stranded salmon on the beach. He would tiptoe over, take the stranded fish, and find a stable water area with calm currents to release the poor fish. This was Su Mu's life day after day.
Later, there may be some concerns, such as picking up a daughter, or contracting the eldest, second, and third children, these cute and playful little ones.
It brings different colors to Su Mu's boring life, which may really be a little light in Su Mu's world.
Su Mu is indeed a selfish person. He always considers interests first in everything and whether the matter is beneficial to him. Profits come first in everything.
This is Su Mu, this is him, a selfish person.
He is indeed a bad person, and he himself admits this.
So, why would such a bad guy wander around this ancient city like a fool? Perhaps it was to find something different and bring even a little bit of different color to his family who followed him.
Just like the hairpin just now, he thought Nannan would like it, because Nannan liked these delicate, extreme, cute and exquisite little things, so he would stop and stay.
The reason is simple, probably because he thinks Nannan likes it. That's why Su Mu is willing to stay in this place where the Hongmen Banquet might be held. That's Su Mu's little bit of compassion.
"Brother Du? I think it's appropriate for me to call you that."
As he walked, Su Mu stopped and said to Du Ziren, who was always one step behind him.
"No, no, no, Senior Su, if you say that, I feel a little terrified."
"No matter what seniority we use, I will still call you senior."
"If you would be so kind as to call me your nephew, I would consider it my luck."
Du Ziren was so frightened by Su Mu's words that he could not speak clearly. He bent down slightly, afraid that he might have said the wrong thing.
"younger generation?"
Su Mu looked at Du Ziren and said with a smile: "You should be older than me, right?"
"No, no, no, senior, you are too kind to me. In terms of lifespan and age, I am indeed much younger than you."
"It's not the same level as longevity anymore. I'm far behind."
"Senior, you stand there, look to the past, look to the future, you are the greatest."
Du Ziren's emotional intelligence is already at its highest level.
Upon hearing his stern and intimidating boss say these words, the Wheel King took a deep breath, as if he was recognizing his boss for the first time.
"Dudi?"
Hearing this excessive compliment, Su Mu also asked: "This should be reasonable, right?"
Hearing this, Du Ziren froze in place for a long while before he suppressed his excitement and replied, "Brother Su, I'm flattered."
In fact, he had a lot of compliments in his heart, but at this moment he was speechless.
He didn't expect that the legendary Senior Su was so down-to-earth.
"Brother Su, we're here."
