Sword wash rivers and lakes

Chapter 40
Being hit by Zhang Shijie like this, Liu Chigui's heart was already broken, he really regretted it now, why did he agree to this competition so obsessively?

Alas, if Yu Fei and Li Qixing were to fight each other, he would still have great confidence in Fei, but now that the second son is involved, the matter would become very complicated. He disappeared without a trace, so he rushed over in a hurry, wanting to check with Yu Fei again, but Zhang Shijie's words knocked his slightly lucky heart down to the bottom of the valley.

Yu Fei glared at Zhang Shijie who was talking nonsense first, and then comforted Liu Chigui: "Brother Liu, don't listen to what this guy says, he is a dog who can't spit out ivory, don't worry, he Li Qixing has the help of the second son, and we also have the support of the seventh lady. Before the last moment, we can't say that we fail lightly. For this competition, I will definitely go all out. That's the same sentence, please believe me, we Must win!"

Seeing Yu Fei's swearing, Liu Chigui finally felt better. He patted Yu Fei's shoulder lightly, sighed and said, "Brother, as long as you try your best, even if you lose this time, I won't blame you." Your, alas, time, fate, all of this is predestined!"

After saying this, Liu Chigui turned around and walked back slowly. He only wanted to comfort Yu Fei when he came here this time. What Zhang Shijie said just now wiped out the last bit of luck left in his heart. It's gone, the second son has directly intervened, there is no hope for Yu Fei to win, forget it, let's not embarrass him.

Liu Chigui seemed to be staggering a little, and his back walking back seemed a little lonely.

"Brother..." Yu Fei opened his mouth for a long while, but didn't say the rest.

He knew that Liu Chigui, like Zhang Shijie, had given up hope in him now, and no matter how nice he was now, it would not help, so it is time to let the facts speak for themselves.

Looking at the back of Liu Chigui going away, Yu Fei gave Zhang Shijie a hard look. What this guy said was too shocking.

Zhang Shijie opened and closed his mouth, closed and opened again, and wanted to say something to comfort Liu Chigui several times, but he couldn't say it. It was not until Liu Chigui had gone far away that he disappeared, and he said to Fei with a sad face: "Brother , I really didn't mean it just now."

Yu Fei sighed heavily, then waved his hand at Zhang Shijie and said, "Oh, forget it."

On the way to Ningzhou City, the two of them were silent all the way. It wasn't until they entered Ningzhou City that the lively atmosphere on the street broke the silence between them.

"Brother Zhang, let's go to the grocery store in front first." Yu Fei looked at the bustling crowd on the street, turned his head and said to Zhang Shijie.

"Sure, today I just came here to accompany you to go shopping and relax. I will accompany you wherever you say." Zhang Shijie replied bluntly.

So far, Zhang Shijie still thinks that Yu Fei will definitely lose in this competition, and since he is bored in the yard, he might as well come out to relax.

Yu Fei didn't want to explain too much. Before he could prove himself with facts, it would be useless to say more. He shook his head lightly, and then walked straight forward.

Not far in front, a Shengchanglong signboard was hung up high. There was the largest grocery store in Ningzhou City. The variety of groceries sold in this grocery store was the most complete in Ningzhou City.

Obviously, there are no chemical raw material stores in this world, so Yu Fei plans to go to the largest grocery store in Ningzhou City to try his luck first, to see if there is such a thing as bile alum for sale there.

When Yu Fei and Zhang Shijie walked into this grocery store named Sheng Changlong, the first thing they saw was a long counter. .

On this long counter, there are some scattered goods, and the shelves behind the counter are full of all kinds of north and south groceries, which are dazzling at a glance.

The shopkeeper behind the counter saw Yu Fei entering the store, and immediately got up and said, "You two guests, if you need anything, please feel free to look."

Yu Fei looked around and scanned the store, but Yu Fei didn't find the guts he needed on the shelves.

So he opened his mouth and asked: "Shopkeeper, I want to inquire, do you sell something called bile powder here?"

"Brat?" Inside the counter, the shopkeeper with a gray beard was obviously a little confused. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "Please forgive me, this store does not sell such items. I am old and ignorant. I’ve never even heard of such a thing.”

"Shopkeeper, have you ever heard of blue alum or copper alum?" Yu Fei frowned, then continued to ask.

The shopkeeper shook his head slowly, expressing that he had never heard of it.

"Shopkeeper, isn't it? Isn't this the largest grocery store in Ningzhou City? Why don't you have what my brother wants here? Aren't you afraid of smashing your own signboard?" Zhang Shijie asked urgently.

The shopkeeper replied with some helplessness: "Guest officer, I have never heard of what your brother said. This shop is a century-old shop. I have been a shopkeeper here for more than [-] years, but No one has ever bought these things, so it is normal that this store does not sell them, why don't you go ask elsewhere?"

Zhang Shijie was in a hurry, and wanted to go forward to argue, but was stopped by Yu Fei. The shopkeeper of the grocery store is not a magician, and he couldn't change things that didn't exist in the store, even if he wanted to.

Yu Fei pulled Zhang Shijie and walked out of Sheng Changlong's grocery store with some disappointment.

"Brother, you should completely give up now, right? The shopkeeper has never even heard of the stuff you're talking about. Where do you buy it? You don't even have the materials. How can you get along with that old man Li Qixing?" Competition? How about, why don't you go to Miss Seven to explain?" Zhang Shijie persuaded pessimistically.

Yu Fei shook his head. He still wanted to look for it in Ningzhou City. If he really couldn't find such a thing as gallbladder, he might as well change his plan and simply use the native method of this world.

Yu Fei went in and out of various grocery stores in Ningzhou City without giving up his will. There was no accident. Every time he entered a grocery store, he would be hit by the storekeeper once. Even though he was hit hard, Yu Fei still insisted on asking all the way. , It wasn't until after asking about the last grocery store in Ningzhou City that he stepped out of Ningzhou City with a deep sense of disappointment.
