Chapter 43: Hu Yue, Luling
Xiao Song saw that the atmosphere had eased, so he joked with Qiao San'er again: "Master Qiao, this Ximen said that he was the commander of the general, although you have never been on the battlefield, but in terms of strategy, it is also a well-known figure in our Hou Ye Mansion." Why don't you go in and try this Simon?"
When Qiao San'er heard this, he wanted to let him go again, his face turned green, and he hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, no." "The fast-talking, machine-gun-like one, spitting stars flying. Xiao Song laughed: "Master Qiao, look at you, you are scared, you have lived to this age, why are you so daring?"
"General Xiao laughed, it's not the old man I'm timid, it's the order of this Simon, the old man I really can't rely on. With such a glorious and supreme title, how can the old man He De enter through this gate? If you go in and then get out, won't you lose the face of the waiting master? However, Xiao Jiang, you are so brave and resourceful at a young age, I think this Ximen is quite suitable for you. ”
After Qiao San'er finished speaking, before Xiao Song could answer, he saw Ling Hougu waving his hand in front of him: "No need to go in, this is from the north gate, I just want to try whether the so-called hanging door order is easy to use." Now that you know it's easy to use, there's no point in going in again. ”
"Master Hou, aren't we here to give a congratulatory gift to the new king?" Liang Yong asked.
"Not busy. It's the South Gate in front of you, right?" Duan Kun looked up and looked ahead: "Yes, go in this direction, and the South Gate is in front of you." ”
"Let's go, it's all here, let's see. ”
On the road from the west gate to the south gate, there are still all kinds of people and horses. However, if there is any difference between this Rashomon and the Wenzhong Gate in the north, it is the number of people.
The Rashomon Gate in the west, the door can be described as a door.
It seems that there are still very few brave and resourceful people who come to this gate.
Most of the people I met on the road were ordinary people, and I couldn't see any clues.
Duan Kun suddenly asked: "Master Hou, since the people around here are all people who have not yet learned, how can they tell where they are going to enter this gate from now?"
"Pass ten from one, and then from ten to hundred. Between people, the mouth under the nose is enough for the people. Duan Kun nodded.
As Ling Hougu walked, he muttered in his heart: This new city lord has set up four city gates, and he has divided the city gates into three, six, nine and so on. What he said was that there was no distinction between status, high or low, but the level of the city gate was there, but there was no panic. But why do we want to divide the ranks? It seems that there is still something wrong with this. But what is so greasy, Ling Hougu really can't say.
There is nothing special about this city from the outside, and besides, he himself sent someone to enter through the north gate, and the people who entered it said that it was no different. Since it is no different, why did the city wall be repaired so much and the city gate was set up? Moreover, it is strange that the new king opened the city but did not see the king.
On the way to the south gate, I met a few people passing by. One of them came over: "These masters, the little ones have been here for a long time, you have such a large number of people, you have come and gone several times, why don't you go into the city to get the silver?"
Liang Yong smiled contemptuously: "What does it have to do with you if you don't go in or not, if you don't withdraw money?"
The man shuddered and said, "Forgive me for being unreasonable, I'm just curious." Because, you, the big voters, are conspicuous enough. Look at the people who come and go, how can there be gangs, they are all alone. ”
"Alone?" If it weren't for this person, it seems that everyone really didn't care, but in this way, it is true.
"Why?"
"I'm afraid I'll be robbed of this silver!" laughed everyone.
"The little one saw a few grandfathers at the north gate just now, no, I went out of the north gate and came here, and I saw it again. How many masters, are you going to the South Gate?"
"How do you know?"
"You don't need to ask about this, follow this direction, naturally, there is the south gate in front. If I say, if you don't want to go in, and you don't want to take any silver taels, it will take a lot of steps to walk around, and you will be tired, so it is better not to look at it. I just walked around this city, and the two gates are exactly the same as this one, and they are not bad, and they are not interesting. ”
When Hou Gu heard it, what this person said was not unreasonable. I looked at two of these four doors, and since I didn't enter, why did I go so far?
After this person said this, Ling Hou Gu carefully looked at the person in front of him. It seems that there is no difference between ordinary people, but I always feel that there is something different. Can't tell.
No one responded, but he had no intention of leaving. Liang Yong approached him: "You, is there something else?"
I saw this person say to Ling Hougu: "This master, born with a blessed face, but his life is extreme. It coincides with the leap month year this year, and in the near future, I am afraid that there will be a black star, and a catastrophe is coming!"
Xiao Song on the side heard this, and suddenly drew his sword and said: "Where did you come from the half-way great immortal, who came here to tell the fortune of our grandfather?" Then have you calculated that today, you will die?"
Xiao Song's voice was too harsh, which also made the person who spoke a little panicked. Ling Hougu raised his hand to stop Xiao Song's actions: "As long as you are kindly reminded, you don't need to be so hateful, even if you don't like to listen." ”
Xiao Song immediately put down the sword in his hand.
Hou Ye smiled: "You said that I will be in trouble in the near future?" Although Ling Hou Gu had a smile on his face and his tone was relatively soothing, he still had doubts.
"Exactly. ”
"Dare you ask, where did you see that?"
"Destiny is said, but those who can understand it can see the trend of the individual in the fortune of heaven and earth. If you want to ask why, you don't know where to answer. The small one has a Taishang Laojun slaying talisman that he has with him, and he can prepare it. If you encounter a demon who wants to take your life, just take out this talisman and paste it at the Heavenly Gate Seal Hall, and within forty-nine days, you will be able to avoid the yin spike from getting close, and after forty-nine days, you will be able to turn evil into good fortune!" he said, and took out a small paper bag wrapped in red paper from his bosom. The paper bag was folded into a triangle. He stretched out his hand and handed it to Ling Hougu.
"Ah, what I said! It turns out that he saw that our master was rich, so he made a random excuse and cheated the money!" Qiao San'er said in a weird way.
"Put away your old man's inconsistencies! Let me tell you, we are all marching and fighting people, and your set will not work at all! We don't believe that there are ghosts in this world!" Xiao Song's sword was then raised again. As a result, again, he was pressed down by Ling Hougu.
"Is this talisman effective?" asked Hou Gu with an eyebrow.
"When the demon is rampant, my lord, I will naturally know. ”
"Haha~ This answer is a little too funny! You are a spell, this is a life-saving medicine, if someone of mine is in urgent need, you tell me, try it and you will know, isn't it a joke, a little bigger?" Ling Hougu said with a smile.
"Master, there is such a thing as a charm, and there is a letter. In the same way, in the face of life and death, sometimes, its effect is far higher than that of the medicine that cures the sick and saves people. I have been keeping this talisman close to me for more than 23 years. Seeing you fall in love today, I will simply give it to you. Money, not a penny. I just need, master, to be safe and sound! the little ones still have something, so I will take my leave!" the man said, turned around and walked in the opposite direction!
This kind of behavior really makes everyone scratch their heads.
Ling Hougu looked down at the little red triangle talisman that Fang Cai had stuffed into him, and frowned slightly: "Heh~ This doorway is really a treasure! Since it fell from the sky, my days have been full of strange things! Look, there is also a person who sends talismans halfway!"
Qiao San'er attached to Ling Hougu's side: "Master Hou, I have heard that the people of this folk are so mysterious. Just like this one just now, eighty percent, it's a secret big man!" Qiao San'er said mysteriously.
"Yo he! Shouldn't Qiao Zhutang change its name and call it Qiao Banxian'er? Why are you talking about it every day? Didn't we say it? He didn't believe this. Xiao Song laughed at Qiao San'er's flattery on the side.
"I'm not doing it for our lord! Anyway, this miracle thing, but it can't be underestimated. Before Qiao San'er finished speaking, Ling Hougu coughed lightly: "Okay! Master Qiao, if one day, I really run into a demon and a monster, you have to take the lead, don't be scared by then!haha~"
Everyone laughed!
After laughing, Ling Hougu put away the smile on his face and stood in place without moving. Duan Kun stepped forward: "Master Hou, what's wrong?"
"I'm just thinking that there seems to be some truth in that person's words. Come to think of it, these doors are nothing more than the division of identity and status and authority, so what kind of effort is there to delay?" Ling Hougu said.
Qiao San'er stood aside and said excitedly, "Then why don't you go and see who can enter those two doors?"
"Who can enter?" Hou Ye raised his eyebrows: "Who can he enter, it doesn't matter to me." What matters is the question of whether to enter or not to enter. ”
"To enter or not to enter?"
"Let me think again. After Hou Ye finished speaking, he stood in place and stroked his beard. He suddenly smelled a sour smell coming from the city wall beside him. So, tilting his head slightly: "Do you smell any strange smell?"
"Strange smell?" Qiao San'er sniffed hard, and then exaggeratedly covered his mouth and nose with his hand: "Don't you say that I really haven't smelled it, but when you say it, this smell is really big, what kind of smell is this? This, how does this smell like the smell of this city wall?"
Xiao Song also approached the wall to smell it, and touched the mud on the wall: "What kind of mud is this? Isn't this cow dung!" everyone laughed.
Ling Hougu smiled: "It is not uncommon to use cow dung to paste the wall. Let's go back, this sun monster is sunburned, and the smell is strange and unpleasant, don't smoke this person before he goes in. With that, the group hurried back. As soon as he walked out a few dozen meters, a short and slightly chubby man ran across the opposite side, and he ran along Liang Yong's side and ran over at a faster speed. This action caught Liang Yong's attention, and he reflexively chased after him and caught the man.
"Oh, what are you doing with me?"
"What are you running?"
"Shall I run, shall I go and fetch the money?" the man stood still, and looked into the hands of some of them, and found that the hands of the group were empty, and there was not even a bag.
"Done?"
"What's done?"
"You didn't get the money?"
