Chapter 6 Buying Books

   As for when the yamen came and found that the place was in ruins, it had nothing to do with them.

  …

  Sheng County is a remote small county on Jingyun Road in the Great Chu Kingdom.

  Da Chu's division of geography is very simple. It is divided into four parts of Jingzhou Fu Road, ranging from large to small.

   And in the Tao, there are many small counties.

  Although Sheng County is a remote and small county, although the sparrows here are small, they have all internal organs.

  It has everything you need, and you can even find a romantic place here.

  At this moment, a group of people just came out of the gate of the county government office in Sheng County.

  Xu Bai walked in front, followed by a team of bodyguards.

   Sure enough, as he expected, the county magistrate only asked a few times, and then left the matter hastily.

   Xu Bai is used to this.

  Nowadays, when someone is in charge, someone is not.

  The county magistrate of Sheng County is in between.

  Let’s say he doesn’t care about things, he really does. For example, in Tiger Village, the county government has sent people to encircle and suppress it many times.

  Let’s say he is in charge, but not entirely. If you really want to destroy the Tiger Village, you can just surround the mountains, but the county magistrate of Sheng County didn’t do that.

  Xu Bai didn't know the reason, but he knew that this time he got away with it.

  Walking on the street, Xu Bai was curious about everything.

  The memory in the mind is the memory, but it is different when you see it with your own eyes.

  It's like watching a movie, compared with going on stage in person, the two are not the same.

  The streets are lined with hawkers, and the noise is very loud.

  Although Sheng County is small, it is still lively.

  Walking on the street, Xu Bai became more and more curious, looking left and right from time to time.

  The key is that there are a group of bodyguards behind him, and he is walking in the front again, acting like a rich young man with evil slaves, and everyone around him stays away.

   "Brother Xu, where are we going?" A bodyguard finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked.

   They just hang out like this, and they don't know when it's a head.

  The point is that no one dares to say it. After all, the figure holding the knife in Menghuzhai is too deep, and I still feel terrified when I think of it now.

  There are so many lives, if you say they are gone, they will be gone. They are all done by this person. Do you think you are afraid?

  Xu Bai held the handle of the ghost knife, looked at this very old middle-aged man, touched his face: "Am I very old?"

   This is completely subconscious, but the middle-aged bodyguard is in a cold sweat.

   "No, no, brother Xu, I mean... yes..."

  The middle-aged bodyguard has been working for a long time, but there is no result.

  How could he have thought that this demon would ask such a question? He really couldn't answer it.

   That knife seems to be very fast. Will it wipe his neck directly?

  The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the cold sweat grew more and more.

   "I'm not going back." Xu Bai said abruptly.

   "Huh?" The middle-aged **** was taken aback.

   "The head of the bodyguard is gone, and the bodyguard has suffered heavy losses. I don't want to do it anymore." Xu Bai said.

  He really didn't want to do it anymore.

   Now that I have gold fingers, the ten or so ingots of silver are enough to spend for a while, so I don't plan to be distracted for the time being.

   And the reason is also very good, because of the reason this time, I was afraid, so I quit this business.

   "Then...Brother Xu, shall we go back?" the middle-aged bodyguard asked boldly.

   "Go back, by the way, remember, they are all people who have received money, and if they break the rules of this industry, you can't say it." Xu Bai pointed out.

  All escorts nodded quickly.

  They all understand that it is equivalent to a person who can't swim on board, and the boat has rowed to the middle of the sea, and it is impossible to return.

  Xu Bai waved his hand, telling the group of bodyguards to leave quickly, while he continued to stroll on the street.

   It is worth mentioning that the martial arts of the Great Chu Kingdom are strong, even though he is carrying a ghost knife, the people around him are not surprised.

   At most, it's just a few more glances, that's all.

   Xu Bai even met a few people with long guns, which were very conspicuous on their shoulders, and everyone around them didn't take it seriously.

   It is normal for those who walk the rivers and lakes to carry a knife.

   After strolling around for a while, Xu Bai stopped at a place.

  —Money bank.

  He originally wanted to go shopping again, but when he passed the bank, he remembered that there were still more than a dozen ingots of silver in the bag, so he thought about changing it to odds and ends at the bank, so that it would be easy to use later.

  Should I say it or not, the county government is the real water, and I didn’t even look at their baggage. When I heard that it was related to the Tiger Village, I asked a few casually and ended the matter hastily.

  Of course, before entering the county government, they had already hidden the money, and they only got it back after they came out.

  At this moment, there is no one in the bank, only the shopkeeper is at the counter.

  But before that, Xu Bai was not in a hurry to go in. First, he found a remote corner, took out an ingot of silver, chopped it into fine pieces with a ghost knife, and then went to the bank with the scattered silver.

   Most of the broken silver in the Great Chu Kingdom comes from this way. Ordinary people use scissors to cut it by themselves, but Xu Bai directly chops it.

  There is a difference between official silver and private silver. The wooden box contains private silver, and Xu Bai uses it very steadfastly.

   Entered the money bank, and after a while, a small bag of copper coins was exchanged, and the remaining broken silver was put into another bag.

   After finishing all this, Xu Bai did not leave in a hurry.

  "Shopkeeper, do you know where there is a place that sells books in Sheng County?" Xu Bai took out a piece of broken silver and put it in the shopkeeper's hand.

  The shopkeeper was keeping accounts, but when he heard the words, he weighed the broken silver in his hand, and his eyes lit up: "To the west of the county, if you keep walking along this road, you will see a book shop."

  Xu Bai nodded, said thank you, and left the bank.

  He didn't just wander around all the way, but kept his eyes wide open, looking around to see if there was a progress bar or something like that.

   Unfortunately, no vision similar to Tiger Village was found.

   If the cheat is not triggered, create the conditions yourself.

  Xu Bai thought, since it is comprehension, then reading books should be useful, so he asked the location of the bookstore in Qianzhuang just now.

  Most of the bookstores in the Great Chu Kingdom do not sell books.

  Most other things are sold here, and books have become incidentals instead.

  When Xu Bai found it along the road, he saw that the door of the book shop was a little deserted.

  Lonely and deserted, there are still a few customers, but none of them are buying books.

  Xu Bai walked in, went straight to the bookshelf, and started flipping through the books on it.

  The owner of the book shop didn't ask much, and was still greeting those guests.

  Xu Bai flipped through the pages, walking around.

   "Not this one."

   "Not this one either."

  He kept flipping through it, and put it back in place without seeing the progress bar.

  From the far left of the bookshelf to the far right.

   When Xu Bai turned to the last book, he stopped.

  On the book, there is a pale gold progress bar.

   "Yes!" Xu Bai was overjoyed, and before reading the title of the book, he took the book and walked to the counter of the book store.

   "Boss, how much?"

  The owner of the book shop was greeting the guests. Hearing Xu Bai's voice, he looked at the books on the counter with a puzzled face.

   It is rare to buy books, but there are always a few scholars.

  If Xu Baiguang is buying books, he doesn't care.

   But the title of the book...

  The owner of the book shop feels that he needs to confirm again.

   "Guest officer, are you sure you want this book?"
