Chapter 65: Shouldering a Heavy Responsibility

I don't know who brought the news, saying that Li Siliang died outside, and his body was in a different place. [No pop-ups. 】

The news was only brought to the Li family, and the person who brought the news also told him not to do anything about the aftermath of the incident, nor to talk nonsense to the outside world. This is the general of the country, and if it is known that something has happened, it will affect the shock of the country. If they do, they will all be buried together.

In the past few days, the Li family has been shrouded in Y haze, and everyone has a sad expression on their faces back and forth. Tears sometimes fall, proving that they miss Li Siliang.

There was no other news in the palace, only the Li family got the news. The housekeeper was skeptical when he heard it, but he couldn't control everyone's memorial. Don't dare to wear white openly, everyone added some white to the inner lining. Li Sihong's mother was still ill because of this, and she fell on the bed for the past few days, talking nonsense.

Not only that, but even Li Siqiu, who has always been outgoing, has stopped going out recently. locked herself in the house all day, and only the maid would sometimes go in and chat with Li Siqiu.

Rumors spread that the Li family was cursed, and everyone was seriously ill. Some people say that the Li family got a good baby and didn't go out.

Inside and outside the capital, this kind of language is the most forbidden. Therefore, these two kinds of speech did not spread too much, nor did they reach the ears of the Li family.

Geng Yong was on the road, he never thought that the Li family was now in a state of grief.

The road back to the capital in the north was very far, so far away that Geng Yong regretted it as soon as he came out.

He didn't have a coil with him, and he didn't have a guard. only relied on his own strength to come out and rampage, and after he came out, no one recognized him as a deputy general anymore.

After riding for a day, Geng Yong had to get off the horse.

The place where he dismounted was a small county town. The small county town was in a dilapidated state, and a smell of earth came to my face when I walked in.

The air was full of sneezing smells, Geng Yong shook his head, and led the horse to the county seat.

He hadn't eaten for a day, and was going to come here to eat something before leaving.

Walking inside, Geng Yong first looked for not a restaurant, but a pawnshop. He had no money on him and needed to find a pawnshop for something.

He had a nice sword, a dagger, and a wrench. The wrench was of jade, a rare object. However, Geng Yong took him not for decoration, but to block more when holding the sword, so as not to abolish his hand.

On weekdays, this wrench has been following Geng Yong, and it is not worth it for a meal.

Geng Yong went forward to find a pawnshop, thinking about what he wanted to be.

After walking for a long time, Geng Yong saw a pawnshop. The outside of the pawnshop was in tatters, and there was no pawnshop in sight.

Tethered the horse outside, Geng Yong hesitated for a moment and walked in.

There is only a simple cabinet inside, and there are no cabinets, two cabinets, and three cabinets. There was a shopkeeper lying on the cabinet, and when he saw someone coming, he rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist.

"When~what~?~"

This is the rule of the pawnshop, and all words are elongated. Geng Yong listened very badly, but he couldn't attack.

He took out the dagger from his bosom, which he used for self-defense. But in this situation, the only thing I can give up is the dagger.

The shopkeeper took the dagger and looked at it, the dagger was well-made and delicate.

"When~more~less~"

There was another shout, Geng Yong held back his temper and said, "Twenty taels." ”

The asking price is not high, and the outside of this dagger is made of silver. The inside of the dagger is carefully practiced steel, and it is by no means an ordinary dagger.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper turned his face and looked behind him.

and behind him there was a man who was in charge of abookkeeping. In addition to bookkeeping, he is also responsible for looking at good things. At a glance at the shopkeeper's eyes, he understood a little, walked a few steps forward, and grabbed the dagger.

"The outer edge is thin, and there is iron and steel on the inside. Two taels of silver, which shows the foundation. ”

With these words, he directly turned the silver taels that he wanted to be two taels into two taels.

Geng Yong felt a burst of anger in his heart, and he wanted to smash the pawnshop. With a dagger that he was so good, he actually gave two taels of silver.

snatched the dagger back, Geng Yong glared at the two and left.

The shopkeeper didn't even have time to make a counteroffer, and the original two taels were given a meaning, waiting for the counteroffer and then counteroffering, ready to make a deal for five taels. I didn't expect Geng Yong's temper to be so big, so he left directly.

"You say, is that dagger really worth twenty taels?" The shopkeeper asked.

The man shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper, don't say twenty taels of that dagger, two hundred taels can't be beaten." ”

"Huh?" The shopkeeper was taken aback and asked, "Then why don't you let me take it?" ”

The man smiled again and said, "Shopkeeper, one person can come out with this dagger, and it only costs twenty taels." Either this thing is not clean, or it is a declining nobleman. Who can afford to mess with these two? ”

The shopkeeper nodded, and put it down.

Geng Yong walked out and led the horse, and the hunger in his stomach ravaged him one by one.

If such a strong man can't eat a full meal, it is tantamount to being beaten with a whip. If he really wanted to, even if Geng Yong died on the battlefield, he didn't want to choose to starve.

Endured the discomfort in his stomach and walked forward, and suddenly saw a teahouse full of people. Xiao Er stood at the door of the teahouse, with tea and pastries beside him.

This is a welcome business, and the pastry at the door is for you to taste and attract guests.

Originally, I wanted to walk, but I was hungry and couldn't walk when I saw the food. Geng Yong swallowed his saliva and walked over.

"How do you sell this pastry!" Geng Yong asked.

Xiao Er looked Geng Yong up and down, this Xiao Er could see the state of the person at a glance, he was a diligent person. But this time, he looked away at Geng Yong.

After all, Geng Yong is too burly, with a piece of equipment on his body and a horse next to him, he doesn't seem to be a master who is short of money.

"Oh, uncle, you are out of sight of what you say. If you stand at the door, you are giving us a plaque. There is no money to eat, you can taste it. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Er handed over the pastry in his hand.

These words are all things to keep people, and if the words are good, the guests will be able to stay for a while if they are satisfied. A person dressed in such a costume will not be short of money, Xiao Er has calculated clearly. If you stop a big household, you can raise your salary a lot.

When Geng Yong heard this, he looked at the pastry again. It's just some ordinary pastry, rough and rough. But this time, this pastry is like a rare delicacy in the world, and the sweet taste is drilling into Geng Yong's nose one by one.

"That... Okay, I'll taste it. ”

Geng Yong said, grabbing the pastries in the small second-hand hand. The huge piece of pastry, I put it in my mouth in one bite.

After taking a few bites, the aroma filled his mouth, Geng Yong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this thing saved his life!
