Chapter 231: Chapter 231 - Whatever You Want to Buy

The car drove for a few more minutes before arriving at Mr. Guo’s place.

It was a large villa that was heavily guarded.

There were many people living in the villa. When the car drove in, those people all walked over.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan got out of the car. Mr. Guo introduced the two of them to the others.

Mr. Guo said to Tang Li, “These people are familiar with the terrain over there. When the time comes, they will go with you.”

Tang Li glanced at them and nodded. She said, “Before we set out tomorrow, I’ll give you some tools for searching.”

“That’s great.”

After these people dispersed, Mr. and Mrs. Guo brought the two of them to the room they were staying in tonight.

Tang Li wanted to go shopping, so she said to them, “Yihan and I are going out for a walk. You don’t have to wait for us for dinner.”

“Let me get someone to take you there.” Mrs. Guo was a little worried.

“No need. This town is not big at all. We can’t get lost just by walking around.”

After saying that, Tang Li tugged at Qi Yihan and went out.

The two of them were dressed very low-key when they went out, but they were too good-looking. As soon as they walked on the street, they immediately became the focus of everyone’s attention.

Many people were pointing at them.

Tang Li asked Qi Yihan, “Yihan, do you know what they’re talking about?”

Shaking his head, Qi Yihan had no clue.

Tang Li smiled. “They said that we’re really good-looking. One look and you can tell that we’re newlyweds.”

Qi Yihan smiled and nodded in agreement. “Speaking of which, we are indeed newlyweds.”

Tang Li pursed her lips and smiled. At that moment, she saw a sugar figure stall. She dragged Qi Yihan towards it and pointed at one of the sugar figures. She said to the boss in the common language, “Boss, I want one. How much is it?”

Qi Yihan took out the largest paper bill and gave it to the boss.

The boss took it and said something to them.

Tang Li translated for Qi Yihan, “The boss said that we look like a loving couple. He also said that we’re really good-looking.”

Qi Yihan took the change from the boss and asked Tang Li, “Why do you understand the dialect here?”

“I can understand a lot of local dialects, but I can’t speak them.”

As the successor of Mystic Taoism, Tang Li was born with many self-taught abilities. Being able to understand all dialects was one of them.

Tang Li took a bite of the sugar figure and her mouth instantly became sweet. She put the sugar figure in Qi Yihan’s mouth. “Yihan, try it too.”

“It’s too sweet.” Qi Yihan frowned and resisted, but he still took a small bite.

Seeing his expression, Tang Li smiled and narrowed her eyes. “Sweet foods can make you feel better.”

After saying that, she took another bite. At this moment, an urchin, who looked to be eight or nine years old, suddenly bumped into Qi Yihan from behind. He was about to run away when Qi Yihan grabbed his shoulder.

The boy immediately struggled and shouted.

“Let go of me! Let go of me!”

Soon, everyone gathered around.

Qi Yihan frowned and loosened his grip.

The little boy took the opportunity to escape.

Tang Li looked at Qi Yihan, whose expression had turned cold.

Qi Yihan told her, “That boy stole the money from me.”

The crowd gave him a pitiful look as if to say, “You’re so unlucky.” It was obvious that many people knew that boy.

Tang Li held his hand and said, “Don’t be angry. I cast a Tracking Talisman on him. Let’s go after him and take a look.”

Qi Yihan’s expression softened.

The two of them did not chase after him immediately but continued shopping. As expected, the hawkers nearby were talking about them.

Tang Li translated it for Qi Yihan.

“They say the boy is a habitual offender and often steals things from the streets, especially from tourists who come here to travel.”

“They said that we’re obviously rich and easy to steal.”

These words made Tang Li laugh. “Let’s go and teach this little brat a lesson later. It’s obvious that he grew up stealing things and it’s become part of him. If he doesn’t have parents, we’ll teach him a lesson on behalf of his parents. If he has parents, we’ll teach their parents a lesson too.”

“Right.”

The two of them continued shopping.

After walking for a while, Tang Li pulled Qi Yihan into a scented wax paper candle shop. “I want to buy some joss paper and a cinnabar box. Let’s go in and take a look.”

The scented wax paper candle shop was actually especially large. Not only did it sell scented wax paper candles, but it also sold everything needed for worship. There were even paper figures and various paper houses that were as tall as people.

At this moment, there were many people buying scented wax paper candles in the store, but they were all people wearing local ethnic costumes.

After the two of them entered, they immediately became the focus of attention.

Many people were pointing at them again.

At this moment, the boss, who was standing by the cashier, saw the two people coming in. His eyes lit up as if he had seen a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. He immediately walked over and asked in the standard language with a local accent, “Guys, are you here to buy offerings to worship Yishen and scented wax paper candles?”

Tang Li nodded. “Yes, we heard that Yishen is very effective here, so we wanted to pay our respects to her so that she can protect our family.”

“Then you are at the right place, I can provide you a one-stop service. I guarantee that you can pay your respects to Yishen with the greatest sincerity.”

With that, he started selling them the most expensive items in his shop.

Tang Li listened attentively.

The boss sized Qi Yihan up as he spoke. Based on his judgment of people over the years, he felt that this man must be especially rich. The richer one was, the more willing they were to spend, especially when it came to worshiping.

“This combo only costs 2888 yuan. It comes with all kinds of worshiping items. When the time comes, we’ll be responsible for delivering it to the temple of Yishen. What do you think about it?”

“Not bad.” Tang Li nodded and asked casually, “Boss, is there cinnabar in your store?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Cinnabar? Yes.” The boss looked at Tang Li in confusion, wondering why this person wanted some cinnabar.

Tang Li would definitely not tell him. She only said, “I want this combo and a few boxes of cinnabar. Boss, get someone to pack it. We’ll take the cinnabar away now. We’ll get someone to get this combo later.”

When he heard that Tang Li wanted the combo, the boss’s eyes lit up. He did not care why she wanted the cinnabar anymore. He nodded and went to get the cinnabar ready.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan stood there and waited. At the same time, they received the gaze of the local customers as if they were two fools.

Tang Li listened to everyone’s discussion and blinked at Qi Yihan. She whispered to him, “The combo is actually very useful. We can take it with us tomorrow.”

Qi Yihan nodded. He had no objections to whatever Tang Li wanted to buy.
