Chapter 40 Appeal
In the following few days, apart from the tightened security in Tais City, the market was still noisy and chaotic.

Xiao found a secluded small building and stayed on the roof for three whole days. During these three days, the only thing Xiao did was to read Volumes 1 to 8 of "Shen Qiu Shi Jian Lu". The protagonist described in it adheres to the concept of "supporting the good and punishing the evil, and taking the responsibility without hesitation", and overcomes all obstacles along the way, which can be said to be popular.

When Xiao closed the book with reluctance, three days had passed.

During these three days, some subtle changes took place in the city of Tais.

The wanted posters of a certain girl have now been posted all over the streets and alleys of the city.

Not only that.

At the city gates and ports, the city lord's personal guards formed checkpoints and patrol teams to conduct various checks on the merchants coming and going.

The city of Tais appears calm on the surface, but undercurrents are surging.

Xiao put the books in order and slowly stood up.

He opened his arms and stretched his muscles.

Then, Xiao looked up and looked down at the city from a high place. The prosperity of this "Taiyis City" may not be as good as Liyue Harbor, but the people are diligent and live and work in peace and contentment, and there is also a thriving scene.

I just don’t know whether Ganyu has successfully reunited with Keqing from the Yuheng Star and Ningguang from the Tianquan Star after being away for such a long time.

If everything goes well, that would be great.

Suddenly.

A faint fragrance quietly emerged from the market.

This unique fragrance wafts along the streets, passing through the bustling crowd.

In the end, although it was far away, it still continued to flow into Xiao's nose.

All of a sudden.

Mandrill's heart trembled.

The food, which had been silent for a long time, was suddenly attracted by the faint fragrance.

"This is... almond tofu?!"

Even though I’m far away in a foreign world, I can still encounter the delicious food from my hometown.

For a moment, Xiao became a little interested.

With a flash of his figure, Xiao passed through pavilions and towers and arrived at a restaurant in the center of the market.

Standing at the door, what caught my eye were the four big characters "Wanmin Restaurant".

Xiao went up to the second floor and found an independent box to avoid the hustle and bustle of the world.

After asking the waiter to hand over the menu, Xiao decisively ordered a serving of "almond tofu" and a pot of cloud green tea.

Xiao ate a sip of bitter tea and a bite of almond tofu with great relish. This was one of the few things Xiao liked while walking in the human world.

The taste of this "almond tofu" is not as good as that of Chef Yanxiao of Wangshu Inn, but it is still acceptable. The only difference is that this pot of tea lacks some sedimentation and bitterness.

After finishing the meal, Xiao put down his chopsticks and stretched out his hand to signal the waiter.

The waiter picked up the account book and immediately walked in front of Xiao.

"A plate of almond tofu and a pot of ancient Yunluo tea, a total of 28 bronze soul coins!"

Xiao nodded and subconsciously reached for his waist.

Because he was not used to carrying money, Xiao always kept the purse given by Ganyu hanging around his waist.

however.

next second.

Xiao was simply stunned.

The purse that was supposed to be hanging around the waist is now missing!
hiss……

Xiao couldn't help but frown and took a deep breath.

How is this going? !
Although I am not used to carrying money, I haven't been to many places in the past few days. Logically speaking, it should be impossible to forget it somewhere...

Under the waiter's gaze, Xiao quickly recalled every place he had been to. In the past few days, he had been reading "Shen Qiu Shi Jian Lu" and never took off his purse.

Xiao's thoughts continued to extend forward.

suddenly,

Xiao seemed to have thought of something and stood up suddenly.

The memory of a certain moment now poured into Xiao's mind like a spring.

It was the night when I met Funina by chance.

Seeing that she was about to fall, he rescued her! And it was at that moment that he and she had a brief physical contact.

Xiao clearly remembered that her fingertips seemed to have brushed his waist slightly.

It's actually her!

Xiao's pupils trembled.

"Sir, what are you doing?"

The waiter frowned and his tone became a little stern.

After a long time, Xiao still couldn't come up with a penny.

At this moment, the waiter's eyes turned cold. "Why? Do you want to eat for free?"

As the waiter shouted at him, the diners around him all looked in Xiao's direction.

For a while.

Various voices of pointing and talking came into my ears continuously.

Xiao also felt quite guilty about this kind of thing.

"Look...is this okay?"

Xiao took out the bunch of dark purple tassels and handed them to the waiter.

"This is temporarily mortgaged to you. I will pay off the money owed and redeem it within today."

The waiter took the tassel, but didn't dare to say anything further, so he went downstairs to inform the shopkeeper.

Not long after.

The restaurant owner in a tan robe, under the guidance of the waiter, went up to the second floor and came in front of Xiao.

"Guest officer..."

"This is a gift from the royal family. How dare we accept it so easily? Consider this meal as a treat from our restaurant!"

As the shopkeeper said this, he was about to hand the tassel to Xiao.

Although the shopkeeper spoke politely from beginning to end, when he said the words "royal gift", his eyes were filled with disgust.

"I will pay you back every penny of the debt today!"

Xiao reiterated it once again before reaching out his hand to take back the tassels.

At this time.

Xiao and the restaurant owner glanced at each other unintentionally.

The restaurant owner's mood became somewhat inexplicable.

There was a hint of disgust in her eyes at first. Then, it gradually turned into shock. Finally, her eyes widened and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"This……"

"Excuse me……"

"It is said that three days ago, when the 'Sea Festival' was held at the port, a young man in white with black hair and golden eyes raised the 'Sea Suppression Beast' with one hand, saving hundreds of innocent warriors from being bullied!"

"Excuse me……"

"That young man, is that you?"

The restaurant owner had just finished speaking.

The diners on the second floor fell silent instantly! Everyone stared at Xiao with wide eyes.

I don’t know when.

There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.

"Unexpectedly..."

"Really are!"

"real or fake?!"

"I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?!"

"hiss……"

"The immortal has been banished to the mortal world, the immortal has been banished to the mortal world..."

For a while.

All the diners present left their seats and bowed to Xiao.

"Isn't it just a few dozen bronze soul coins?! I paid for the immortal's order..."

"Go away! It's not your turn there!"

"It's, it's..."

The surrounding environment became chaotic again.

Xiao looked around and felt it was very noisy.

I wanted to just walk away.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper in front of him bent his legs and knelt heavily in front of Xiao.

"Thank you, Immortal, for saving my son's life!"

"But... my son is still in dire straits, living a life worse than death."

Speaking of which.

The shopkeeper's voice became extremely trembling and he spoke a little hysterically.

"I beg the Immortal to save my son's life!"
