Chapter 112: Nameless (I)
The Black Tiger Gate's sphere of influence, the Black Tiger City at the foot of the Tiger Roaring Mountain, this is a big city that does not lose to any top city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Such large cities are often well garrisoned, first of all, with high walls and a large number of well-disciplined guards.
The guards of Black Tiger City are naturally all disciples of the Black Tiger Gate, and they all have martial arts.
Even the most recent disciples will be issued a complete set of Black Tiger Fist for cultivation.
As long as you are willing to work hard, no matter how poor your qualifications are, a disciple who spends a few months cultivating, five or six ordinary adults will not want to get close.
Those who are arranged to be guards at the city gate will naturally not be rookies who are new to the entrance, at least they have some qualifications, and if they want to bypass them and break into the city, ordinary people can't do it, and the strong will not easily offend the Black Tiger Gate, so the safety of the city is enough to be guaranteed.
Most people want to go through the city gates, of course, they still follow the rules and pay the entrance fee to enter.
It was noon, and there was already a long queue outside the city gate.
There are groups of poor scholars, large and small caravans with complete carriages and horses, and lone travelers in the dust.
No matter what their identity is, as long as their brains are not sick, they will have awe of the great force of the Black Tiger Gate, and if they want to enter the city, they must follow the rules of the Black Tiger Gate.
In this long queue, there are two people, a man and a woman, who are relatively eye-catching among so many people.
The man was of medium stature, about thirty or forty years old, dressed plainly and full of patches, with a beard on his face, and his long hair loose and unrecognizable.
Next to him was a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, petite and delicate, with two little pigtails on her head, very cute. Sadly, there is a large red birthmark on the left side of his face, as if he had been burned and disfigured by fire.
The girl was also dressed in coarse cloth with a few patches, apparently a girl from a poor family.
This combination of a man and a woman, one big and one small, it stands to reason that no one will pay attention to it, but what makes people frequently noticed is that the man is carrying a whole tiger on his back.
Of course, the tiger was dead, but it did not look like a wound, and it had not undergone any treatment, and its flesh and internal organs were all there, and its epidermis was intact.
Such a big guy is carried on the back of a man, and it looks like he is going to go into the city to sell it, which is really quite visually impactful.
"Hey, no name! Are you tired of carrying the tiger like this? Why don't you put it down and rest, I think it will take a long time to wait in line before it is our turn to enter the city!"
It was strange that the girl with pigtails was with the man, but she called him "nameless".
In fact, there are some twists and turns.
The man did not have a name because he had amnesia.
He was found by the girl by the river, and when he was found, he was in a coma, his stomach was full of water, and it seemed that he had drowned in the river, and for some reason he was washed ashore by the river.
The pigtailed girl was taken aback at the time, and subconsciously stepped forward to check the man's snort and found that he was not dead.
Out of kindness, the girl carried him back to her home.
The girl had a father who collected medicine for a living, and he also knew a little about the tricks of medicine, so he prepared some medicine and boiled it and fed it to the man, and he woke him up at one time.
After waking up, the man's behavior let the girl and her father know that he had amnesia.
At first, the father and daughter thought that everyone had woken up, and they couldn't keep him to eat and drink for nothing, right? Unexpectedly, he found that the amnesiac man had a strong physique and great strength.
Before the girl could react, her father turned the corner, leaving the man behind to work for his family, and only needed to provide him with two meals a day.
The amnesiac man did not disappoint the father and daughter of the life-saving benefactor, chopping wood, carrying water, catching fish and hunting, they could do everything, and they would not shout tired, as if they were beaten with iron.
In this way, the man stayed in the house of the father and daughter to live with them, but it was not a matter that he did not have a name, and the girl wanted to give him one.
Ah Tie, Tiezhu, Ah Niu, Big Dog, Dasha, etc., etc., one by one, the names were proposed, but the man couldn't remember it, and he always couldn't react to calling him by these names.
In the end, the girl was angry, so she simply didn't name him, and directly called him "nameless", which is why the man was called so.
"I'm not tired, I'm just a little hungry. ”
The man was still carrying the whole tiger, standing straight in the scorching afternoon sun, not even sweating.
"You know how to eat! When we go into the city and sell the tiger, buy some delicious food in exchange for silver, and I will cook a good meal with my father in the evening, and treat you as a reward." ”
The girl's eyes began to light up as she said this. Because she's looking forward to having a good meal, too.
The small village where her family is located is not far from this Black Tiger City, and she can go back and forth in half a day. Although I am afraid that I will not be able to get home until late at night when the two of them sell the tiger and then go back, it is worth it in order to exchange for silver.
"Something good to eat tonight? hehe. ”
When the man heard what the girl said, he grinned and began to giggle, almost drooling from the ground.
"Look at you stupid. ”
The girl habitually took out her handkerchief, wiped her mouth for him, and then wiped her face for him, although he did not sweat.
Time ticked down, and soon it was the turn of the two of them to enter the city.
The guards at the city gate are also from the Black Tiger Gate, and there is a clear provision on it that they can't do anything that loses the image of the sect, so when they saw a man and a woman dressed as poor, but carrying a whole tiger to enter the city, they were not embarrassed, and they were allowed to leave after collecting the entrance fee normally.
The entrance fee for one head is five copper coins, and the passage of two people is ten copper coins. If you ride a horse, camel, etc., there is an additional charge, but a dead tiger does not have to pay.
Of course, if you want to transport a large number of prey into the city and sell it, you still have to pay an additional fee.
The girl was very distressed and paid ten copper coins, which was not a number that her family could squander at will.
"The city of the city should be there, let's go. ”
The girl recognized the direction and pulled the man towards it.
The Fang Market in Black Tiger City is extremely lively and prosperous, with all kinds of stalls crowded together, selling everything.
The girl finally found a small open space, and immediately pulled the man next to her to sit down.
Under the command of the girl, the man put down the whole tiger that had been carrying on his body, and then began to shout loudly.
In the market, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, and many people were soon attracted by this well-preserved tiger.
"This tiger is strong, it also takes some skills to hit it, and there are no external injuries, is it killed with bare hands?"
"It should be something that can only be done by people with martial arts, could it be that this person killed the tiger?"
A few people approached and began to judge, and others began to pay attention to the amnesiac man, wanting to see if he had martial arts on his body.
People who know martial arts always make people look up to them, so girls and men are poorly dressed, and no one will show disdain.
"How much does this tiger cost?"
Someone started asking for a price.
The girl immediately stretched out a hand and compared the number, and the man shook his head and turned away.
"It's expensive, it's cheaper, isn't it?"
The other continued to bargain as he crouched down and reached for the tiger's skin.
"It's really not expensive, you see that this tiger skin is intact, please ask a master to pull it off, then the usability is big." ”
The girl frowned, refusing to budge.
She was actually very excited at this time, a tiger was still so complete, and the silver she got was a huge amount of money for her family. Seeing so many people come to ask for the price, it means that there is no problem with the market, and I will definitely be able to go home with a large sum of money today.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, let Master Ben take a good look!"
At this time, a young man who looked like a gentleman approached here with two family members, one on the left and one on the right.
Brother Gongzi pushed away the person who asked the price just now, and then squatted down and stroked the huge tiger. (To be continued.) )
