Chapter 4 Persimmons

They hung themselves from the trees all night, which was a great blessing in misfortune, and although they lost their weapons, there were no more carnivorous hungry beasts that were in danger that night, otherwise they would be like waiting to die in their current form. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Info said pitifully, "Daughter-in-law, I'm hungry." ”

Changsheng said, "You can bear with it again." In fact, her stomach began to drum, screaming to eat, if it hadn't happened, she should have sat in the cave and eaten the dim sum given by Jiang Qu's mother, thinking so, but she seemed to be even hungrier.

Jiang Qu hung upside down and watched the night in the east gradually receding into the color of fish belly white, and it was really a unique taste to watch the sunrise and the stars change in this way. He regretted, "You also ate a lot of dim sum last night, and I ate a few pieces of bergamot cake last night, so I should have eaten a few more pieces, at least for a few more days, so that I wouldn't starve to death too soon." ”

Sima Luming turned over neatly and grabbed the rope, and climbed up along the rope, did they forget that they were hanging under the persimmon tree, climbed up and reached out to the persimmon, but they turned a blind eye and shouted hunger. Sima Luming picked the persimmon and threw it to them.

Hexagram Liao took it and gobbled it up. Jiang Qu smiled, "How did I forget that this is a persimmon tree." "It can't be that I've been hanging for a long time, and my brain is dull.

Qian Ruyue picked and chosen, "I don't want to eat." "She hates persimmons.

Sima Lu said, "You can choose to eat it or not." Sima Luming ate it, and if you want to escape, you always have to reserve your physical strength.

Lianyu stared at the persimmons on the branches, not that he wanted to think about the bad things, and at this time he said it to hit everyone's will to survive, but this question was a very practical question, "How long do you say that the persimmons on this tree are enough for the six of us to eat?" ”

Jiang Qu sighed and said, "I don't know how long I will eat, I only know that if I eat three meals a day, within three days, it is estimated that even I will become a persimmon." ”

Lianyu said, "You still have the heart to joke." ”

"What can I do if I don't have fun in suffering, I just have to cry bitterly and pretend to be pitiful, and I have to choose a time when someone passes by. But look at this deserted place, who am I going to cry to? Jiang Qu was about to sigh again after speaking, but he saw a person coming in front of him.

A man.

Someone really passed by, whether this was providence, to make him pretend to cry for help.

Lianyu finally saw the vitality, for fear that the man would not see them miss it, so she quickly opened her voice and shouted, and Changsheng also shouted.

The man was carrying a basket in his hand, and when he heard their shouts, he raised his eyes and saw that there were six people hanging under the persimmon tree, and he immediately walked over in three steps and two steps.

Changsheng thought to himself that he was finally saved, and maybe he could beg this person to find an axe or some sharp weapon to cut the rope. Lianyu smiled in a good voice, "Little brother-"

Before he could tell his purpose, the man scolded, "Who is your brother, you thieves." When I came to see it a few days ago, there were still a lot of persimmons on the tree, but now there are fewer of them, so you must have eaten them secretly. He began to look up and count the fruit on the tree, as if to count them. The hexagram was chewing, and the man's fingers scraped the corner of the hexagram's mouth, scraping off a little flesh, which was ironclad evidence of their theft. "You know how much effort I put into planting and finally bearing fruit, you thieves who don't work for nothing."

Qian Ruyue shot back, "Who rarely eats that rotten fruit, do you think it's the queen mother's peach!" ”

The man said angrily, "I haven't seen a thief more fierce than the bitter master, and now you are still justified in stealing things." ”

Jiang Qu soothed, "It turns out that this persimmon tree belongs to you, little brother, and we don't know, the so-called ignorant are not guilty." I'm really hungry, isn't this an emergency in the rivers and lakes? Otherwise, you can put us down first, and we will pay you as many as we eat. ”

"Compensation?" The man smiled, "Yes, a persimmon and a whip." ”

Seeing that the man was fierce and vicious, it was rare to have the same hatred as Qian Ruyue, "Hexagram Liao is not rare to eat, it's a big deal to return it to you." Hexagram Liao opened his mouth, although he felt that it was a pity, the persimmon was really sweet and sweet, but he still spit out the persimmon meat that he had not swallowed and had bitten to the ground.

The man looked at the lump of yellow flesh, the persimmons he had worked so hard to grow were so spoiled. This irritated him.

When he saw that the green tendons on his forehead were exposed, he pulled out the decoration on his waist and threw it to the ground, and the stone was about to break in half. It was a nine-section whip, and I don't know what material it was made of, Jiang Qu originally thought it was iron, but after looking closely, he felt that it was not, each section of the whip was finely sharpened, and the craftsmanship of the whip was estimated to be the best craftsman in the imperial capital who could not make it.

Lianyu suddenly realized that the other party didn't seem to be joking. hurriedly said, "It's really wrong for us to eat a few of your persimmons, but it won't kill you." ”

Jiang Qu wanted to discuss with the man in the spirit of being a big husband, but Sima Luming said fearlessly, "I picked the persimmons, it's none of their business." ”

A hint of admiration flashed on the man's face, but in an instant, he mocked Sima Luming's ignorance of life and death, which he took the initiative to beg for. "If only you had admitted it yourself. I'm not stupid, do you think you will believe me if you take it yourself? Each of you has a share, and I will fight every one, but it starts with you. ”

Qian Ruyue shouted excitedly, "You dare! We are disciples of the Jade Void Sect, and my cousin is the future owner of Sima Villa, if you dare to hurt him, Sima Villa will not let you go. ”

"I don't know what the Jade Void Sect is or what Sima Villa is, I don't care where you came from, anyway, what you are stepping on now is my place. I will do with you as I want. ”

The man grabbed the nine-section whip and wanted to whip Sima Luming, Changsheng closed his eyes and opened his hand to hug Sima Luming, although the master asked the junior brother to take care of her, but she was the senior sister, and she also had the responsibility to take care of the junior brother.

Sima Luming didn't expect Changsheng to make such a move, he was stunned for a moment, he reached out and wanted to grab the nine-section whip, so as not to really hurt her.

Changsheng was mentally prepared for back pain.

As a result, the nine-section of the whip bypassed them, and did not fall on them, injuring them a hair. Instead, he broke the rope on Changsheng's ankle. Changsheng fell directly to the soft ground, but fortunately he was not hung high, otherwise he would have to fall to death.

It was all upside down all night, and now it's finally back, and it's better to be down-to-earth.

The man approached, as if he wanted to smell the fragrance of the girl's body to smell the smell of Changsheng's body, Changsheng moved back, and the man leaned forward.

Sima Luming hurriedly wanted to use force to tear off the rope on his feet, but the result of the hard work was that the handle was worn out. Qian Ru understood that he was so flustered that he lost his coolness.

"Don't take her lightly! ”

Hexagram Liao didn't understand the affairs of men and women, and he didn't even know what the meaning of lightness was, he just saw that the man was smelling the smell of immortality, as if every time he found something delicious, such as the chestnut cake he ate last night, he had to smell the fragrance before eating.

Jiang Qu silently recited the mantra, urged the aura to condense ice bars in the palm of his hand, and then aimed at the man, about to save the beauty of the hero. But I heard the man ask Changsheng, "You have silver with you?" ”

It took a long time for Changsheng to react, nodding stupidly. And there was a money bag tied to his belt, and there was silver in it.

The man reached out to her, "Give it to me!" ”

She wondered what the other party wanted to do, but she couldn't figure out why. I had to obediently untie the money bag to him. The man put all the silver in the palm of his left hand, stared at it for a long time, stretched out his tongue and licked his mouth, looking greedy, "This silver is in good condition." ”

He grabbed a minot, ten taels of silver, and threw it into his mouth and ate it.

Can you eat silver? Qian Ruyue was dumbfounded and said, "I just met the Gu Eagle last night, and today I met another monster, what is this?" "His appearance is the same as that of a mortal, but how can a mortal eat silver?

This time, even the well-informed Jiang Qu couldn't answer, and looked at the man again from the beginning, guessing whether the one in front of him was a demon or a demon.

Changsheng was stunned to see the man chewing with relish, still very intoxicated to close his eyes and taste the taste in his mouth, he chewed for a long time before he was very reluctant to swallow it. Then he opened his eyes and asked, "Anything else?" ”

Changsheng stammered, "I...... I still have a baggage. "Just threw it in a cave.

The man commanded, "Go and fetch it." ”

Jiang Qu thought to himself that if this person wanted silver, they would have bargaining chips, so he shouted, "Changsheng, don't go, he said that we stole his persimmons, shouted and killed, and now that he has swallowed our silver, how can this account be calculated." ”

The man flicked the nine-section whip in his hand, "You think you can bargain." ”

Jiang Qu smiled, "Actually, there are so many persimmons on your tree, but there are just a few less." If you want us to pay for it, we are willing to pay it with silver. The one hanging over thereβ€”" he pointed to Sima Luming, and continued, "You may not have heard of the name of Sima Villa, but I can tell you that his family has a lot of money, and his baggage is full of heavy silver. If you let us go, and we give you money, isn't it a great joy for all? ”

The man stretched out his tail finger, compared it a little bit on it, and said, "My persimmon is very precious, and even a few taels of silver for you can't even count the interest." ”

Sima Luming asked with a cold face, "How much silver do you need to be willing to let us go?" ”

"Leave?" The man laughed, laughing inexplicably, Sima Luming was asking him how much silver he would release people, this should be considered a negotiation, not a joke, right? Or the man took the negotiation as a joke. The man asked, "How did you get here?" ”

Lian Yu said, "When passing by the precious land, there was a vision in the sky, so I had to come down and stay for a while." ”

The man was meaningful, "Temporary? With a smile, he swept his gaze from left to right over the six of them one by one, "Okay, I'll let you go, one hundred and twenty-one." ”

Jiang Qu smiled, "This is the most expensive persimmon I've ever tasted." "One hundred taels, you can buy all the persimmons in the imperial capital and eat them until you die, Jiang Qu is also from a rich background after all, but he is not distressed about the silver, but he is just worried about whether this man is true to his word.

Sima Luming was worried with him and asked, "Can you talk?" ”

The man said, "Only I can untie the rope on your feet, and you don't believe me." "If you give the silver, maybe you can still gamble that he is true to his word, and he will really let them go, and if he doesn't give it, he can only hang himself.

Sima Luming thought for a while, and said to Changsheng, "Senior sister, you go and get the silver." ”

Changsheng nodded, and ran back to the cave to take everyone's baggage.

She opened her baggage first, and after playing in the imperial capital for a few days, she also bought a lot of things, and found a lot of broken silver. She counted the broken silver in her hand, but before she could count it, the man directly grabbed a handful and put it in his mouth one by one like eating fried peanuts, and he broke the rope hanging from the hexagram.

Hexagram Liao ran over to the ground, and also grabbed a piece of silver from Changsheng's hand and put it in his mouth, Hexagram Liao took a bite and found that it was hard. Deceitful, silver is not delicious at all.
