Chapter 9 Tianlong Inn
"I think it's better to let the cripple give it a try than to wait for death here, it's better to sink into the river than to be caught by the enemy, Xiang'er, what do you think?" the blind man asked quietly, there is no way now, give the final choice to Tianxiang, after all, she is the master.
Tianxiang also knows the crisis at the moment, and is often educated by her mother, so she has a sense of rationality and composure very early.
"It seems that the heavens are going to destroy me......"
"Grandpa, you...... How sure are you?" Tianxiang asked, turning her head and pinning her last hope on this old man, it seemed too far-fetched.
"Issei will take me!" replied the cripple calmly.
"Why are you only sure of it? Aren't you always boasting of great ability? No matter how you row, you can't row?" said the blind man immediately, and in the palace, the lame man often bragged in front of himself about how he was back then, and now he needs him and has become a fool.
"I only rowed when I was ten years old, and I haven't touched the big lakes and rivers since I entered the palace, so what else are you going to do?" replied the lame.
"Ten years old, what's wrong with ten years old? When my mother is ten years old, I can cook, thread needles, chop wood and carry burdens, sing songs and chant poems, and I am still very proficient, I think you can brag!" The blind man scolded, usually all skills, the key is to drop the chain.
"Mother-in-law, can this be the same? It's unreasonable!" the cripple was angry.
"How is it different? How is it different? Who do you say is unreasonable? Who are you talking about?......?" "The more the blind man spoke, the more angry he became.
"You are unreasonable!"
......
So the lame man and the blind man chattered and quarreled.
"Okay, okay, don't argue, grandpa, you can do your best, no matter what the outcome is, this is our last choice, you go and sail the boat? Tianxiang broke the bickering between the two of them, she really loves to be calculating, and this is really right.
So the lame man went to put down the rope and start the boat, and put the burden on the ground, intending to find out how he felt when he was ten years old.
......
At this moment, a man flew out of the grass, a big man of about thirty, who came quickly with his legs in the wind, and kept shouting as he ran: "Who dares to move my ship......
When Tianxiang, the blind man, and the lame man saw the man who spoke, the strong man also fell in front of the lame man, blocking his way.
......
Seeing a sudden person, the three of them were shocked at first, especially the lame man standing in front, and then he was surprised to hear that the boat was his, presumably he was the boatman, so he would definitely drive the boat.
"This young man, can you not be so startled? The old man can't stand the fright, don't you know?" the cripple patted his chest and said, the scene just now was really sudden, and he thought that what kind of ghost had come out?
The strong man, dressed in blue clothes and with a big Chinese face, first looked at the three people in front of him, two old and one young, and asked, "Who are you?
At this time, the blind man hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "This boat is yours? What a offense, the three of us wanted to cross the river, but we only saw that there was no one on the boat, because the time was urgent, we had to do this, and we hope to understand." ”
After hearing the blind man's explanation, the strong man calmed down, "Well, forgive me is no problem, but you dare to sail with such a big storm?
"We have no choice, the enemy wants to hunt us down, we can only fight, since the boat is yours, can you cross us? The blind man said again.
Hearing the blind man say that there were pursuers, the strong man looked at the three people carefully, and asked very suspiciously: "I don't look like a bad person, why are there still people who kill you?" Presumably, the person chasing you is a bad person, I can cross you, but I can't break the rules." ”
"What rules do you have? We have money and everything, we can give it to you. The blind man asked.
The strong man waved his hand again and again and said: "Hahaha, I don't love money when I eat Bing, I don't want money, I just want one kind of food to eat, and let me eat food that is satisfactory." ”
......
It's a strange name, but that's not the point right now.
"Do you want to eat?" this ......" the blind man heard the difference, no money just food, this is really the first time I have heard of it, it can be called a foodie.
At this time, Tianxiang walked to her mother-in-law's side and whispered, "We brought a lot of snacks from the palace, why don't we ......?"
Tianxiang's words made the blind man immediately understand that the people in this palace must not have eaten the dim sum, and it may be able to satisfy him.
So the blind man opened the burden on his back, and it was full of delicious snacks that he had never seen before, such as steamed cheese with sugar, plum blossom cake, poria milk roll, jujube paste muffin, Fulu cake, Qixing cake, kidney bean cake, and auspicious fruit......
This made Bing dumbfounded, he had never seen it, and he drooled when he looked at it.
"It's all for you, how about sending us across the river?" Seeing the strong man's infatuation, Tianxiang felt a little sure in his heart, so he asked.
There was no answer to Tianxiang, he picked up a piece of pastry engraved with "Ruyi" on it and put it in his mouth, it melted in his mouth, and the aroma of the pastry spread all over his body along his throat, almost fluttering like a flying feeling.
"How's it delicious? haven't you eaten it?" asked the blind man confidently and proudly, in fact, the answer was already evident from his face.
"It's delicious, it's so delicious, you guys get on the boat, I'm going to wrap it up and give it to my brother to taste, and the good things have to be shared together, this is my agreement with him." Bing said excitedly, so he re-tied a large bag of pastries and put them on his back, which was not polite at all.
"I didn't expect you to keep your word, but where is your brother?" the blind man asked.
"He's not here, he's ferrying on the other side, and the two of us can't be on one side, otherwise the guests on the other side won't be able to cross the river. Bing replied.
Then, Tianxiang and her mother-in-law and grandfather got on his boat, although the wind and waves were victorious at this time, but the skill of building a boat that responded to requests was more superb, and a small boat always moved smoothly in the wind and waves.
The boat soon arrived at the center of the long river, which is also the place where the wind and waves are the wildest, like a wind dragon and a water dragon, and the crazy dragon is stirring up, making the river endless.
However, Bing can still control the boat, and at this moment the wind and waves also aroused his interest, and he seemed to have endless fun fighting with the wind and waves, and sang loudly: The waves rise with the waves, and the waves fall with the waves, I am calm in my heart, like the earth lying.
Hearing the boatman's song or poetry, Tianxiang seemed to hear that there was a truth in it.
The blind man and the lame man did not hear it, but were very strange at what he wanted, and asked, "I say, how can you have such strange rules? ”
Hearing their question, Bingying replied calmly: "Isn't life just about eating? Only by eating can I continue to live, since I can live happily with food, why should I have money?"
......
"Is that the same rule for that brother of yours?" asked the lame man.
"He is also this rule, he called must eat, I called you to eat, hahaha, when I get to the other side, I have to go to the Tianlong Inn to eat, there are a lot of delicious food, you must eat. Bing laughed out loud.
Hearing the Tianlong Inn, the blind man and the lame man were surprised and delighted, and asked, "Tianlong Inn, is it one of the four major inns?"
"Exactly!"
