After taking a look at the Chongyang Palace and the Tomb of the Living Dead on Zhongnan Mountain, Xie Ying went down the mountain with satisfaction. He first found an inn, booked a room, and then went out to see the customs and customs at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.

Because the Quanzhen Sect on the mountain is gone, fewer people come to Zhongnan Mountain. Naturally, the villages and towns at the foot of the mountain have fewer outsiders coming here. Occasionally, people like Xie Ying come to pay homage to the ruins of the Chongyang Palace.

Xie Ying was walking on the street, and the shouts of vendors on both sides of the road came into his ears. Most of them were selling some food. He has never been very fond of eating these things, or most adults don't like these snacks very much.

.Of course, the exception is the adult who is holding the child, because such a food can stop the child from crying.

A middle-aged man who looked like a scholar walked past Xie Ying, came to a stall selling candied haws, and said, "This candied haws looks good, give me one."

The vendor heard this and handed him one. He took the candied haws and stuffed it directly into his mouth. The man took a taste and shook his head, muttered a few words with the candied haws in his mouth, and then handed a few coins to the vendor. Although he felt it was not possible, he

After finishing a few bites, he walked towards the candy seller's stall in front of him.

"Boss, give me a candy man."

The candy seller was an old man. When he saw this middle-aged man coming to buy a candy by himself, he was a little confused, but he still took out one of the candy figures on the table and handed it to him.

The man took the candy man and took a sip. He squinted his eyes and said happily: "This candy man is good. The boss will bring me two more. A little rabbit and a pony."

Hearing the customer praising his candy man, the old man also laughed and said proudly: "Of course, I have been making candy men for decades. Sir, are you buying this for your own child?"

?Children like my candy man the most.”

The old man took off the two candy figures he wanted, wrapped them in two pieces of paper respectively, handed them to the man, and reminded: "These candy figures are very fragile, be careful not to break them."

Xie Ying naturally wouldn't watch others buying things. At this time, he had already walked to the front. However, he saw a woman squatting next to a corpse wrapped in a straw mat. Next to it was written "Sell your body to bury your father." It must be this woman.

Her father passed away suddenly, and she had no money to bury him, so she committed suicide on the street.

The woman looked at the silver on the ground, and the sadness on her face dissipated a lot. She barely suppressed a smile and said to Mr. Wang.

The woman was obviously frightened by the prince's behavior. She raised her head tremblingly, revealing a pitiful face.

Mr. Wang was stunned on the spot. His cheeks were red and he said: "Okay, okay, you did a good job!" After saying that, he kicked the dog follower.

But the middle-aged man said: "It's okay, just accept it. My daughter and wife will definitely like such a delicious candy."

Prince Wang asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

The follower on the side saw that his boss agreed so readily, so he quickly whispered a few words into Prince Wang's ear.

The attendant was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "I just said this woman is beautiful! Prince Wang is blessed."

Although he was nominally going to protect the woman, he probably still wanted to prevent the woman from running away! Xie Ying thought in his mind.

"I just didn't want you to be deceived, so I reminded you that the man lying there is not dead, and he is not her father."

"Not so much." The old man waved his hands repeatedly.

"yes."

However, although Xie Ying wanted to help, the woman wanted fifty taels and had to pay off her father's gambling debt, so people passing by who wanted to help couldn't come up with so many silver taels.

Seeing the woman's aggrieved face, Mr. Wang felt that his heart was about to melt, so he comforted her repeatedly: "Okay, okay, little lady, you go and bury your father first, and then come and live in my palace."

"Get out of the way, this is our prince, what are you doing here? Don't you want to live?" A follower shouted loudly, and everyone did not dare to speak and left one after another.

Xie Ying shook his head and was about to leave, when a thin man with a wretched face and wearing silk led a few tall and strong men to disperse the onlookers.

"Wait." Suddenly a man's voice appeared, interrupting the movements of everyone present.

After speaking, he waved to the servant who followed him, and the servant took out fifty taels of silver and threw it in front of the woman.

"Thank you, old man." The middle-aged man carefully took the candy man and took out a piece of silver.

The woman who sold herself looked at Mr. Wang and said: "Since I sold myself, I can naturally go with you, but you have to give me the money, and I have to repay my father's debt."

"Haha, little lady, come to my Wang family. After you follow me, I will ensure that you have a good time and drink spicy food." Prince Wang said to the woman with a smile.

I saw the prince swaggering up to the prostitute and saying, "Raise your head!"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Wang. However, I still have to bury my father. I'm afraid I can't go back with you today. Can you reschedule it another day?"

"Why, do you, a scholar, want to compete with me to buy this girl?" Prince Wang said with a sneer.

Prince Wang took the first look and found a middle-aged scholar. Xie Ying also saw clearly that this was the man who had just bought candied haws. He was now holding something wrapped in paper in one hand, and he didn't know what it was.

"You see how beautiful this girl is when she grows up. But how do you know they are not lying to you?" The man said when he saw that Prince Wang didn't understand yet.

"Money is an easy matter to discuss. How much does it cost?" Mr. Wang lowered his head and said, "Ah, it costs fifty taels! It's not expensive at all."

"That's not true. I just want to remind this young master, do you really want to let them go?" The middle-aged man shook his head and said strange words to Mr. Wang.

"You mean they defrauded me of money? Is selling your body to bury your father a lie? Why should I believe you?"

It was good for him to go down the mountain with money, but he didn't have fifty taels to help this woman.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."

Originally, Xie Ying wanted to watch a scene of robbing a common girl, but the two parties reached a deal so easily. That's right, the woman wanted money, and the prince had money, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Xie Ying's plan to make a fortune as a hero failed, and he was disappointed and wanted to leave.

I don’t know what he said, but Prince Wang’s expression changed anyway. He nodded and said to several servants: “You guys follow this girl, and you will bring her back after she goes back to bury her father.”

Prince Wang looked at the woman and said, "With them protecting her, I won't worry about the girl going back alone."

The woman thanked her repeatedly, but her expression did not change, and she probably had no intention of running away. She picked up the money and the sign on the ground, and several servants were about to help her lift her father.

Xie Ying then became interested. He stood aside and wanted to see what this so-called prince was going to do. Maybe he would be able to get the fifty taels soon.

As soon as he said this, the "corpse" lying on the ground turned over, jumped towards the middle-aged man, raised his palm and hit him in the chest.

Xie Ying didn't expect that she was also deceived, so she wanted to help the man, but it was obviously too late. However, the man's attack was not very strong, so he should not be seriously injured.

The prostitute on the other side waved away the servants beside her, and then shouted loudly: "Don't hurt anyone, we'd better leave first."

"It's okay, I'll teach him a lesson and leave."
