Chapter 942: Bell

Without being disturbed by outsiders, Li Guanhai could finally devote all his mind to the epiphany, leaving only a tiny part to observe the surrounding situation.

This epiphany came suddenly and unexpectedly, which was undoubtedly a blessing in disguise for Li Guanhai.

He urgently needed an epiphany to break through the Hedao realm. Before Li Yanying went into seclusion, she told him that he could refine his mind in the mortal world and experience the various aspects of the world, and perhaps he could understand his own Tao.

At that time, Li Guanhai, who was in the upper realm, had no time to refine his mind in the mortal world. He accidentally came to the Daluo Heavenly Queen, but he took the little girl Qin Shu all the way to the capital. On the way, they rarely rode or walked.

The two passed through many counties, prefectures, counties, and states, saw many different customs and people, and witnessed many interesting things. The journey was very colorful.

Li Guanhai believed that this was also an experience of life, but he still had not realized what his Tao was.

Until now, the epiphany that he had been thinking about finally came.

He was concentrating on his understanding when a clear sound of firecrackers and cheers came in, deafening.

It was the procession of the gods who had walked to this street. The people who had prepared firecrackers long ago could not wait to light the fuse and throw them at the feet of the procession, hoping for joy and peace.

Of course, they would not prepare only one firecracker. They threw one after another without feeling tired. The whole street was covered by the fleeting flames. The crackling sound never stopped at all, and the pungent white smoke rose up. Those who didn't know would think that someone was on fire.

Although Li Guanhai in the room on the third floor was in a state of "out-of-body", he still kept a part of his mind to observe the surrounding movements. Naturally, he also heard the noisy movement outside and couldn't help frowning.

Sudden enlightenment is like cultivation. It requires a mind without distractions and cannot be disturbed by external objects, especially sensitive to sound.

Such a deafening noise would really have some impact on him, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't go out and clear all the people on the street now, could he?

He simply used his magic power to seal his ears, so that he could not hear all the sounds from the outside world. His mind gradually relaxed and completely entered a state of forgetting himself.

After half an hour, he exited the state of enlightenment and sighed.

After feeling it for a long time, he thought that even if he could not feel the opportunity to break through the state of unity, he would at least gain something else. In the end, he gained nothing and realized loneliness.

At this moment, he was so depressed that he went downstairs and saw that the body of the waiter with a broken arm had stopped convulsing. The ground was covered with thick blood, spurting everywhere.

Li Guanhai was too lazy to look, and even more lazy to pick up the silver and money scattered on the ground. He stepped over the waiter's body, which was basically cold, and went out of the room and went down to the second floor.

The parade had already passed this street, but the second floor was still crowded with people. It was really overcrowded, and people were worried whether the wooden board could bear so many people.

Li Guanhai passed through the flowers without getting a single leaf on him. He easily squeezed down to the first floor, walked out of the inn, sensed the location of Luo E and Si Nan, and went straight to the north of the city.

The craze caused by the parade would last for a long time. There were still so many people late at night, and peddlers carrying goods running around could be seen everywhere.

After passing through several crowded streets, Li Guanhai found the slender figure. Qin Shu was being taken shopping by Luo E and Si Nan.

Although Qin Shu was shy, perhaps because of the lively atmosphere here, she also had a smile on her beautiful face, with curved eyebrows and eyes, which was very beautiful.

The three women had their own temperaments and beauty. Walking on the street, they were simply three beautiful scenery lines. They were undoubtedly the most eye-catching and the combination with the highest rate of turning heads.

This made many lustful men think about it, and they all approached her with shameless faces, hoping to win the beauty.

If it was Qin Shu alone, she would definitely not be able to handle such a situation. First of all, she couldn't speak, and when she was anxious, she didn't know how to express what she wanted to say.

Fortunately, Luo E and Si Nan were by her side, and those lustful men with ulterior motives had no chance to approach Qin Shu at all.

There were a few gentlemen who looked gentle and refined, waving their folding fans and greeting her, first introducing themselves, and then saying "May I ask your name, young lady?"

Qin Shu naturally didn't respond. Si Nan, the former courtesan of Baihua Tower, sneered and said nothing. Luo E glared at her and said one word, "Get lost!"

This word "get lost" is not ordinary. It is blessed with the power of the soul, which will make people excited. It is like a wake-up call to those who are not strong-willed, and it will have a miraculous effect.

All those young men who wanted to eat bran like wild boars left gracefully, running away in a hurry, not to mention how embarrassed they were.

At this moment, the three women were gathering in front of a jewelry stall, and the stall owner was a kind-looking old woman.

She didn't look like a businessman, because business people are very good at talking, and whenever there are customers, they can talk endlessly and sell their products to customers like a string of cannonballs.

But this old woman didn't do that. She just sat on the ordinary wooden stool she brought, smiling at the three women who were choosing jewelry, neither recommending nor urging them, like an outsider.

Luo E took a fancy to a pair of teardrop-like azure earrings, held up the bronze mirror on the stall, and gestured with the earrings endlessly.

Si Nan was also holding a jade bracelet and admiring it.

Only Qin Shu didn't do anything, just staring at it, not daring to reach out to take it.

Seeing her staring at a string of bells but reluctant to pick them up to look at them, the old woman picked them up for her, handed them to her and said with a smile, "Girl, take a closer look if you like."

Faced with the old woman's kindness, Qin Shu hurriedly reached out to take it, bent down and bowed his head to express his gratitude. He carefully placed the bell in the palm of his hand and watched it. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Girl, these bells come in pairs."

As the old woman spoke, she took out a wooden box from under the table and opened it. Sure enough, there lay a bell exactly like the one in Qin Shu's hand.

Qin Shu fell in love with it right away. With a smile like a flower, he carefully put the bell in his hand into the box and held it in his arms, indicating that he wanted to buy it.

Luo E, who had already put on the teardrop earrings and was looking concave in front of the bronze mirror, wondered: "Why did you buy the right bell?"

It is indeed strange to buy a pair of bells instead of buying so many exquisite jewelry.

Qin Shu smiled, hugged the wooden box tightly in his arms, lowered his head and smiled silently.

Luo E said: "Okay, as long as you like it, I'll pay for it, just treat it as a gift to you."

Hearing this, Qin Shu shook his head and said with a serious face that he would pay.

Luo E didn't know why, so she let him go.

The old woman quoted a price, but she didn't open her mouth because she saw that Qin Shu wanted to deal with the bell like this. The price she gave was absolutely fair.

Without thinking, Qin Shu took out the money from his pocket and put it in the old woman's hand. He turned around holding the wooden box and was suddenly stunned.

Li Guanhai was standing not far away. Pedestrians were passing between the two people, but they could not block the two people's sight lines and looked at each other.
