Chapter 0544 Nanxiang Ranger(2/2)
Disciple, are you ashamed or not?"
The young man was scolded for being uneducated and incompetent, his face turned red and he looked ashamed. He even suffered the old man's abduction without evading it. He could not speak.
"It turns out that big men still have such rules. It seems that we are ignorant. Thank you for your advice."
The man bowed quickly.
The old man glanced at the two of them and saw that they were all wearing long swords. Although they spoke politely, they had a strong sense of charlatanism. He muttered, "They are not good people..."
Then he shook his head and left.
Only the two of them were left looking at each other.
"Master, where should we go now?"
The young man asked.
The man pondered for a while and then said, "If we want to find out the whereabouts of Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, we naturally have to start with things related to him. The most obvious ones related to him are Xinhua Bookstore and the storyteller.
"
"The Xinhua Bookstore is a place for scholars. It's hard to get in with the way we are now, so we first went to find the most famous storytellers in the city. Just as we were walking along, I saw a few people who were of the same faith.
We will find an opportunity to ask then."
"Master, this Nanxiang is really different from other places. We have come all the way here in vain."
"That's natural. It makes sense for people like Lan Ling Xiaoxiaosheng to choose to live in seclusion here."
"I don't know what kind of person this Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng is, who can actually write such secrets..."
"I think he must be a master among his peers."
"I just don't know if he wants to see us?"
"Those fellows who appeared here seem to be here for this master. Since others can have such intentions, why can't we give it a try?"
"This is what the master taught me."
The two of them continued walking, whispering, not wanting to attract anyone's attention.
According to the legend of outsiders, there are four characteristics that must be known when visiting Nanxiang.
The first one is not to mess with women easily.
There are many families in Nanxiang where women are the masters of the house. If there are outsiders who dare to disobey the rules, they will basically spend the rest of their lives in the mines in the mountains.
The second is the most direct evidence that Nanxiang is the presence of evil spirits: thick smoke billows during the day, and the fires are brightly lit at night, and the kilns work day and night.
At the same time, it is now also a wonderful scene in Nanxiang.
When outsiders come to Nanxiang for the first time, they will stop and watch for a long time.
The third one is Nanxiang Xinhua Bookstore, which is free and open to all readers.
It is because of it that many people from poor families are willing to travel across mountains and rivers just to find their favorite books.
But after all, there are only a few people who can read and read, so the most popular one is the last one, a storyteller unique to Nanxiang.
A table, a chair, a gavel, a storyteller, a bowl of boiling water, that's all.
But it is an indispensable thing for all restaurants, guesthouses and other business establishments in Nanxiang - no one wants to go to restaurants or guesthouses without storytellers.
However, the storyteller’s time arrangement also has a certain skill.
Every time I talked for too long, there were a lot of customers in the shop, but they were all here to hear about the book. They didn’t leave even after eating, so they just treated it as free sex.
Unfortunately, there was no room inside, and people outside could not be greeted, which affected business.
But if the time limit is too short and the guests are not satisfied, the grumpy man will not even want the unfinished meal and just turn the table over on the spot.
Also, the details of the storytelling are different in different places.
For example, in places where there are many slave laborers and coolies, you can use your imagination and make the intimate details more explicit and simple, the better the effect will be.
The people in Guizhou like to hear this.
But in more elegant places, most people rely on their status, so they have to speak more elegantly, speak in a subtle way, or use metaphors and allusions, and then everyone will smile in understanding.
It not only maintains face, but also allows the spirit to be happily satisfied.
This situation also results in the same biographical novel, except that the outline is roughly the same, the various plots are very different in the mouths of different storytellers.
Not only adults like this biographical novel, but children also like it.
When the master and apprentice first arrived in Nanxiang, they saw many children on the street holding wooden knives, swords, or sticks and sticks, fighting with each other.
One shouted, "Look at my Xuanyin Finger," and the other shouted, "Eat my Xuanyin Divine Palm."
What's more, he just took off his clothes and said, "Nine Yang Magic is invincible in the world. If you don't believe it, come here and beat me..."
Then a woman rushed out from the side, picked him up, and with a burst of falling palms, shouted, "Have you finished your homework?"
The Nine-Yang Divine Skill was broken all at once, and the child cried and said, "Not yet..."
"You dare to go out into the wild before you finish writing. I have worked so hard to find a way to send you to school, but you actually want to learn from those rangers, who can't beat you to death!"
…
The eyelids of the master and the disciple were really twitching. This Nanxiang woman really lived up to her reputation!
It's just that this ranger didn't offend you, right?
"Hurry up and get dressed and go home!"
The woman became the leader of the martial arts alliance and left proudly.
All the martial arts masters did not dare to say anything. They could only watch in despair as the leader sobbed, found his clothes, put them on, and prepared to go home.
"Little brother, I am being polite, can you ask me a question?"
The man walked forward, cupped his fists and asked.
The leader, who still had tears on his face, saw the swords in the waists of the two men, his eyes lit up, and he clasped his fists at the man, and he looked like a decent person, "I wonder what this brother wants to ask?"
"I want to find the most famous storyteller in this city. Do you know him?"
When the leader heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "Why is this so difficult? The most famous storyteller in Nanxiang is none other than Bai Xiaosheng from Xia Ke Xing..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a "lion's roar" coming from the corner, "Where is the person?"
"coming!"
