When Cao Cao was mentioned, the short man paused and laughed at himself.

The tall man reacted and said: "Hey, indeed, you have the same surname as your little... big brother, and your family background and position are very similar..."

"What are you doing blindly? I don't want to disappoint the world! You should be punished~"

As he said that, the corners of the short man's mouth slightly turned up, and he stretched out his hand to the tall man's armpit.

"Puff, miss, please forgive me...ah no, big brother, please forgive me..."

After playing around for a while, the short man stopped and said, "This man is indeed interesting. Judging by his appearance, he is also going to the city, right? You can send someone to look for it..."

......

At this moment, Li Cheng had already walked to the west side of the capital, in front of the city gate named Guangning Gate.

It seems that because of the help of immortal practitioners, the city wall here is nearly 40 meters high, and there are three urns stacked on top of each other. The towering and mighty towers on the top are enough to make any attacker daunting.

The city gate is also wide and big, and it looks like three or four elephants can pass through it side by side.

Putting this section of the building in the past life alone, it would be considered a spectacle in civilization, at least.

Fortunately, Li Cheng was a time traveler, and he was used to seeing high-rise buildings, so he didn't look up like the other people behind him.

He easily entered the door, and then wanted to find a place to stay.

At first, he did consider going to find Xiao Wan'er...but then he thought, he came to steal the prince's things!This matter is too much punishment, once it is exposed, it is likely to be a prison for life.

He was going to take refuge with Xiao Wan'er, if something unexpected happened, wouldn't his mother and daughter be implicated?

So Li Cheng decided to find an inn to live in first, pretending to be a storyteller on the surface, and secretly waiting for an opportunity to investigate the Hunhe Palace...

The prosperity of the capital is far better than any city Li Cheng has seen before.

By the way, so are prices.

Although Li Cheng brought some money with him before leaving this time, in fact, he didn't count a few taels, so in order to save money, he shuttled among the bustling crowd for a long time and asked for directions twice before he found a restaurant that was said to be very expensive. cheap inn.

Just as I was about to go there, I saw two people chasing and fleeing at the intersection. The chaser was big and thick, carrying a butcher's knife, while the fleeing man was thin and thin, shouting as he ran:

"Help! Robbery!"

Chapter 120 There Is No Free Roasted Chicken

As a very curious fox, Li Cheng said that he couldn't ignore the excitement, so he immediately went over.

But he saw that the five big and three thick men quickly caught up with the thin man, pushed him to the ground, and said viciously: "Okay, dare to steal my money!"

"Where did I steal your money? It's clear that you are going to rob me!" The thin man grabbed the strong man's hand and tugged, "Everyone comment, at the feet of our emperor, this villain is actually committing crimes in the street. Is there any king?" Law!"

"I, did I commit a crime? It's clear that you want to steal my money!"

The strong man snatched a purse from the thin man's waist and said, "You took this from my chopping board while I was not paying attention!"

"Nonsense, that's clearly my purse!"

For a while, the two had their own reasons and quarreled furiously.

Others don't know the truth, but seeing the thin man is weak and the strong man is strong, they feel that the strong man is bullying the weak.

Normally speaking, if there are only one or two people, even if they think that the strong man is wrong, they will not dare to intervene.But right now, more and more people gathered to watch the excitement, and gradually became more courageous, and there was a lot of discussion, all accusing the strong man.

The strong man just opened his mouth, and was instantly drowned in saliva, his eyes widened and he didn't know how to reply.

"Everyone, let me tell you, this matter is easy to handle!"

Li Cheng pushed away the crowd, squeezed into the circle and said, "We can't tell who this bag of money belongs to, so we just need to let the money speak for itself?"

"Speak by yourself? Haha, what you said is really funny!" An idler in the crowd said: "The copper coins are all the same, and you don't have a mouth, how can you speak?"

Even the strong man and the skinny man said, "Are you here to make trouble?"

Li Cheng glanced at the butcher's knife in the strong man's hand, and said with a smile, "You can tell whether my words are true or not after you try it. Ladies and gentlemen, can you fetch some bowls of water?"

There are many shops near this intersection, and soon someone brought a few bowls, put them on the bench, filled them with water, and said to Li Cheng, "What else do you want to do?"

"This is enough."

Li Cheng took the money bag, poured out the copper coins, divided them into several piles, and threw them into different bowls.

After a while, I saw many oily flowers floating on the water.

At this moment, Li Cheng raised the strong man's wrist and asked, "Is this elder brother selling... meat?"

The strong man said: "I am a butcher of pigs."

"really......"

Li Cheng raised the thin man's hand again, looked at it in the sunlight, and finally said to the crowd: "Everyone, please look, although this copper plate can't speak, the oily spots on the water are real."

"Hey, that's right!"

"That's right, butchers hold money with hands covered in lard, that's why there's oil on the money!"

"This thin man is clean..."

All of a sudden, the wind direction of the onlookers' discussions changed.

"what?"

Seeing this, the thin man rolled his eyes, bent down and wanted to sneak away, but was grabbed back by the strong man and said: "Want to run? Come, come with me to see the official!"

After finishing speaking, he turned back to Li Cheng and said, "Thank you, brother, if you don't give up, you can take half of the money in this bag..."

"No, no, I'm just passing by, just talking casually."

Li Cheng declined repeatedly, bid farewell to the butcher, walked out of the crowd, looking up at the sky with emotion.

Unexpectedly, this thief fox who planned to steal the prince's things, on his first day in the capital, he helped catch a thief first.

Tsk tsk, it's quite interesting.

What he didn't know was that there were other people watching him not far away, and they also thought he was quite interesting.

soon.

Li Cheng asked for a cheap room in the inn, and just as he opened the window, he smelled a strong fragrance wafting from the street outside.

It's roast chicken!

Out of the instinct of a fox, Li Cheng loves chicken even more than in his previous life.

At the same time, as a monster, although he is a third-rank middle class, he does not refuse to eat grains like some human practitioners, but does not refuse meat.

Go back and forth, hey, he is hungry.

But I touched the little money in my pocket...

Just, a little tangled.

I knew I should have gotten a few coins from the butcher just now, tsk, I was delayed by the education I received since I was a child...

Boom boom boom!

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, Li Cheng asked: "Who is it?"

When I opened the door, I saw that standing outside was the tall man from the wine shop outside the city last night.

"My lord, we meet again!"

"..."

Good guy, how could it be such a coincidence?

Could it be that it was found on purpose?

Could it be to urge...

As for it!

"Have we met? Sorry, you have the wrong person."

After finishing speaking, Li Cheng was about to close the door.

Unexpectedly, this tall man was surprisingly strong, and he stretched out his hand to grab the door. Li Cheng had already used nearly three points of his strength, but he still couldn't hold it...

"My lord, I was joking. With your appearance, I can't be mistaken."

The tall man smiled gently and politely:

"Our family... Big brother, I heard you recount the Romance of the Three Kingdoms before, and I liked it very much. I happened to see you catch the thief just now, and I admired it a lot. I want to make friends with you... ..”

What breed is Little Big Brother?

Make friends?What kind of dating method?

But I saw the tall man pointing out the window, a restaurant with at least seven floors, standing out from the crowd in the streets and alleys, saying: "If you don't mind, please come with me, brother, he has already set up a banquet..."

Li Cheng was stunned.

Looking at the gorgeously decorated restaurant, he looked at the small inn he was in.

Sigh, the contrast is too strong...

Since there are some to eat...it's not impossible to consider!

"Great! Thank you son! Please follow me!"

Seeing that Li Cheng agreed to come down, the tall man happily led him the way.

Li Cheng followed behind, feeling that this person's walking posture was a bit strange, so he was a little awkward...

One person and one fox walked through three streets, and finally arrived in front of the restaurant, but saw that it occupied a large area, with a grand gate, and a plaque hung directly above it, with the words "Baihualou" written on it.

The tall man introduced with a smile: "These three characters are inscribed by the prime minister of this dynasty." After he finished speaking, as soon as he walked in, he immediately said to the younger brother who came to greet him: "We are Mr. Cao's. guest."

Seeing Xiaoer's arrogant and respectful appearance, Li Cheng thought again.

Originally thought that the two were ordinary travelers, but now it seems that they are either rich or expensive.

He carefully recalled his behavior before and after entering the capital... well, it was normal, there should be no problem.

Then it’s better to keep things unchanged!

So Li Cheng followed carelessly, and went straight up to the top floor, and entered a room on the left.

The inside is spacious and bright, and there are screens, calligraphy and paintings. The big table is next to the window, and when you stick your head out, you can see a large bustling street scene.

And there were seven or eight dishes on the table, including chicken and fish, with exquisite knives, steaming hot, and emitting bursts of aroma.

The short man I met before was sitting at the table at this moment. Seeing Li Cheng coming, he got up to greet him and said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time, sir."

"It's a great honor to receive such hospitality from you while I'm idle in the next rivers and lakes."

Li Cheng said some polite words, sat down at the table, drank a glass of wine, and introduced each other.

He claimed that his surname was Li, his name was Youxin, and he was from Yunmeng Province. His family was in decline, and he couldn't pass the exam for fame, so he came out to speak books. He heard that the capital was prosperous, so he wanted to see the world and earn more money along the way.

The two people in front of them claimed to be rich businessmen surnamed Cao who were doing business in the capital.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the short man raised his glass and said, "I went to bed too early yesterday, and I didn't hear Mr. Li talking about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. I wonder if I can..."

After all, after eating other people's food, Li Cheng was happy to reciprocate, so he got up and told the story again from the beginning.

This talk lasted for several hours, and some people in the middle had a make-up lunch to continue. Finally, when Wang Situ used Diao Chan to make the time, Li Cheng stopped because his voice could not stand it.

Even so, the short man still had something to say, and after pondering for a long time, he said with emotion: "Mr. Li, your story is full of ups and downs and magnificent waves, which makes me really feel like I am in the age of heroes."

"My lord has won the prize..."

"Don't be too modest."

The short man drank his wine and squinted at Li Cheng.

He was too sleepy last night, so he didn't look at it carefully, but now the more he looks at it, the more he finds this face more pleasing...

He recalled the Romance of the Three Kingdoms again, and felt that although it was a story, it also contained many wonderful truths...

In the end, he remembered the oil flower catching the thief told by his subordinates in the morning...

The short man smiled suddenly and asked Li Cheng, "Would you like to come to my house, sir?"
