Two hundred and sixty-two Xu Cheng

Two hundred and sixty-two?

"Alas, why?" Zhou Yansu asked, although she forgave her brother to some extent, but not all at once. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Go with me to someone. Zhou Yanbo said as he walked onto the deck of a ship.

"If you are looking for someone, brother, you can do it alone, why do you have to pull Yan'er...... " Zhou Yansu muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Stop complaining. Zhou Yanbo walked in front and said.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you. Yun Yun said in the back.

Zhou Yanbo looked back at Yun Yun in surprise and said, "It's really surprising, in the past, Yun'er was pulling others away from me in a situation like this, why did your attitude suddenly turn around today? The sun didn't come out of the west?"

"If you make that joke again. Yun Yun looked at Zhou Yanbo with a smile on her face and said, "I promise that tomorrow I don't know whose boat will find a tied person soaking in the lake." ”

"Spare me, I can't swim......"

Zhou Yanbo, Yun Yun and Zhou Yansu kept walking back and forth between the boats, except for Zhou Yanbo who stayed for a long time on some boats that sold books, the rest were basically glanced, and then Yunyun and Zhou Yansu had a good time, they just had to ensure that they could catch up with Zhou Yanbo.

Zhou Yanbo walked into a painting boat again, and the owner of the boat inside walked up and said, "Several, take a look, I have a lot of photocopies of the previous dynasty here." ”

"If Mr. Tong Jingye comes, he will have to faint happily. Zhou Yanbo looked at the bookshelves in the cabin that were neatly stacked with books.

Zhou Yanbo walked in the bookshelf, and suddenly found an interesting book from a bookshelf, immediately carefully took it out, opened the bookbox, took out a book, and looked carefully, the shipowner saw Zhou Yanbo's actions and immediately stepped forward to look, and the shipowner saw that the book Zhou Yanbo took out from the bookbox was: "Seven Books of Wujing".

The so-called "Seven Books of Wujing" is a series of books on the art of war promulgated by the Northern Song Dynasty court as an official book, and it is a military teaching book that people who want to follow Rong must read, including "Sun Tzu", "Wu Zi", "Liutao", "Sima Fa", "Huangshi Gong Sanluo", "Wei Xuanzi" and "Li Wei Gong Asks Right" seven books. Such books were also photocopied in the previous dynasty, but after all, there were few.

"This son is really rare. The owner of the ship said, "Whoever comes to my ship to look for books, no one can take a look at the Seven Books of the Martial Arts." ”

"It's strange to hear you say that, it stands to reason that such books should be very sought-after in the world now. Zhou Yanbo took out all the "Seven Books of the Martial Arts" and carefully checked them one by one and said.

"On paper, I finally feel shallow, and I never know that I have to do it. The shipowner smiled, "What's the use of just reading books, if you read and can't use them flexibly, it's not the same as not reading, and then the marching and fighting, the strategy formulation is the business of a few people, like ordinary soldiers, as long as it is executed, and besides, basically every big family has a set of such books, who will buy them?"

"I beg to differ. Zhou Yanbo said, "A person who wants to be motivated, whether he is a pawn or not, will definitely be familiar with these military books, because he puts himself in the position of a general, and it is absolutely impossible for a person like this to be a mediocre pawn for life." ”

When the owner heard this, he was amazed and said, "As soon as I heard it, I knew that you were a man with great ambitions. ”

"I have checked this set of "Seven Books of Martial Arts", there is no defect, I bought it, help me clean it up. Zhou Yanbo said.

"Well, based on what you just said, I'll give you a cheaper. The owner of the ship said, "Although this "Seven Books of Martial Arts" is also a book worth collecting, I hope it can be of greater use." ”

"Yes. Zhou Yanbo said.

Just when the owner of the boat was cleaning up for Zhou Yanbo, Zhou Yanbo asked the owner of the boat, "Shopkeeper, let me ask you, is there a person named Xu Ziqian in this Four Seasons Lake?"

"Xu Ziqian?" said the shipowner, "I really haven't heard of it, but there are more than 500 people living around Xiao Qianzhou, plus many people coming and going, maybe I haven't seen it." ”

Zhou Yanbo was not surprised by such an answer, since the other party was a reclusive person, it would be strange if it was so easy to find.

"Then let me ask you again, is there anyone in this Four Seasons Lake who is very good at medicine or fiddling with medicines?"

"Yes. This time, the owner of the innkeeper didn't even think about it, "There is really such a person in Xiaoqianzhou, if anyone who lives here is sick or needs any medicine, he will go to him, and he is the only healer here." ”

"What's his name?"

"Xu Cheng. The owner of the ship had already wrapped the "Seven Books of the Martial Arts" and handed it to Zhou Yanbo.

"Where does he live?"

"From here, go all the way north. The owner of the boat pointed in one direction and said, "When you reach the edge of the group, you will see a large ship that is far away from the group, and there is a long board connected to the group, and that boat is Xu Cheng's boat, which is easy to find." ”

"Thank you. Zhou Yanbo said.

"But now he may not be in his boat. The owner of the ship said.

"Huh?"

"That man is a drunkard, and I guess he is drinking in some of the ships that sell alcohol, and when you see him, be careful, although he is very clever in his methods of pharmaceutical treatment, but he does not have any of the virtues that a doctor should have. ”

"Superb technology, extremely poor morality?" Zhou Yanbo asked.

"It's not, the people here like this guy a lot, it's just that sometimes Xu Cheng's behavior is weird, his character is very good, some people who don't have money to see a doctor and buy medicine for the time being, he is allowed to owe it first, and then pay it back when he has money, and he doesn't even pay an IOU. ”

"If someone has other scheming, wouldn't they be able to pay it back?" Yun Yun asked.

"This will never happen to Xu Cheng. The owner of the boat smiled and shook his head, "If anyone dares to do this, he will definitely be kicked out of the boat and never be allowed to return." ”

……

"You can tell Yan'er why, right?" Yun Yun asked, "You must have some ulterior motives for coming here, otherwise why would you care about a guy named Xu Ziqian." ”

"What is the purpose of the ulterior. Zhou Yanbo said, "I just want Yan'er to meet that person named Xu Ziqian, maybe Yan'er can learn something new from it." ”

"Would you be so kind?" Yun Yun said, taking Zhou Yansu's hand.

"Yes, in your eyes, I have never been kind. Zhou Yanbo said with a smile.

When the three people were walking over a board, the water between the boats suddenly bubbled, which attracted the attention of the three people, just when Zhou Yanbo was about to take a closer look, a person suddenly appeared in the bubbling place, startling the three people, Zhou Yanbo almost fell into the water from the other side of the board.

The person who appeared shook his head, then wiped his face with his hand to wipe the water off his face, and after seeing the three people on the board, Zhou Yanbo said, "Hey, the three people above, do me a little favor and pull me." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand.

Zhou Yanbo half-squatted down and stretched out his left hand to pull the person up, and after the person was pulled onto the board, he shook off the water on his body and said to Zhou Yanbo: "Thank you." ”

"Why are you in the water?" asked Zhou Yanbo curiously.

"Fell. "I guess I drank too much again, and I didn't get steady between the planks and fell into the water, but that's fine, I'm much more sober." ”

"You dare to get drunk in a place like this?" Yun Yun said, "If we hadn't found out earlier this time, you wouldn't have known how you died." ”

"That's what you say. The man smiled, "I've lived here for almost twenty years, and there are countless cases of falling into the water after getting drunk, but not once has my life been in danger. ”

"That's just your fate......"

"But then again, you're not from here, are you?" the man stared at Zhou Yanbo and the three of them, "Are you here to play?"

"Sort of......" Zhou Yanbo replied vaguely.

"Your status is not low. The man said, "These two girls are coated with jasmine and osmanthus essential oils, which are not cheap, especially osmanthus essential oil, which is difficult for even ordinary rich and noble families to afford." ”

Then the man looked at Zhou Yanbo: "You also have a smell of incense, it smells very unique, it seems that a lot of traditional Chinese medicine has been added, the most important of which is cloves, this kind of incense can't be bought on the market, it should be specially matched incense, and people who can afford special incense are definitely not rich or expensive." ”

"You ......" Zhou Yanbo couldn't believe it, if this person could smell the fragrance on Zhou Yansu and Yun Yun's bodies, it would be fine, but people like Zhou Yanbo who don't use fragrance and essential oils just have the smell of incense left on their clothes, and it is really incredible that this person can smell it.

"Don't be surprised, I'm just a little better at using my nose than the average person. ”

"I think there's more to it than that...... "Smelling the smell is not the same thing as distinguishing the smell. ”

"Let's not talk about that, I'm going to go back and change my clothes, you guys come too, I'll invite you to tea. With that, the man walked forward.

Zhou Yanbo and the three of them glanced at each other and followed this person.

Surprisingly, the man kept turning left and right in the north, and finally walked towards a large ship away from the group of boats, which was exactly as described by the shopkeeper at the time.

"Are you Xu Cheng?" asked Zhou Yanbo.

Xu Cheng glanced back at Zhou Yanbo: "I didn't expect you to know me, that's right, I'm Xu Cheng." ”

"I see, no wonder he can identify the main ingredient of my incense by smelling it. Zhou Yanbo thought, "He does have this ability." "Zhou Yanbo's incense is matched by Zhou Yansu, the taste is light and elegant, and it can wake up the mind.

"Sir, have you fallen into the water again?" asked a nine- or ten-year-old girl in Xu Cheng's boat.

"Hmm. Xu Cheng nodded, I'll go change my clothes first, and there are three guests you will entertain first.

"Yes. ”

Zhou Yanbo walked into the main cabin and found that the design here is really original: on both sides are sliding paper windows to ensure ventilation in the cabin, in the middle of the cabin is a large Boshan incense burner, which is burning what incense, emitting curling green smoke, and the floor of the Boshan incense burner is slightly sunken, probably to fix the incense burner, except for the floor on that side, the rest of the floor of the cabin is covered with a carpet with complex patterns, which is definitely not available locally, between the incense burner and the hatch, is a low-legged coffee table, there are eight legless bamboo chairs around it, and some square cushions are scattered; , it seems, is a gateway to other places. The candle wind lantern is placed in the front half of the main cabin, and the walls around the cabin are also covered with all kinds of strange ornaments, many of which Zhou Yanbo has never seen.

"This ...... Is it a cabin?" Zhou Yanbo couldn't believe it.
