After a period of hurrying, the convoy of Chu finally arrived at the inn when it was just getting dark.

The inn was small, old, and the pillars with lanterns hanging from the doorway were already dark and shiny.

The envoy of Chu State walked to the front of the carriage in the center, knocked on the door, and whispered, "Little Marquis, the inn where you will rest tonight has arrived." Little Marquis, please get out of the carriage. ”

After speaking, the envoy of the State of Chu stood next to the carriage, waiting for the orders of the little marquis, or welcoming the little marquis to get out of the carriage.

At this time, the aroma of food wafted out of place and into the noses of everyone in the convoy. The unique aroma of chicken tofu is enough to make people guess how smooth and tender this dish is.

There are attendants who are moving stupidly, their feet moving forward and backward, thinking, looking forward to it, looking at the carriage with their eyes blank, even if they are ready to move, they don't dare to move lightly.

"Squeak-" There was a sound from the carriage door, and a snow-white boot inlaid with jade stretched out, Bai Rui, came out.

The carriage door opened, and Bai Rui stepped out of the carriage for the first time after so many days. During this time, Bai Rui ate and lived in the carriage, and it was convenient to come out occasionally, and he returned to the carriage quickly.

He showed obvious alienation, and many people in the team didn't even know whether this little marquis was tall or short, fat or thin. This time, Bai Rui stepped forward, and the faint light of the red lantern shone on his small face.

In the Great Yan Tianxiang Mansion, the face that has always been baby fat is now finally emaciated, a small face. It can be vaguely seen that the appearance in the future is enough to be extremely handsome. The figure is a little emaciated. The gorgeous clothes seemed to be hanging on the body, as if the wind was getting stronger. will blow this little marquis down.

For many of the attendants, this was the first time they had seen their little marquis, and they all forgot about the temptation brought by food, and looked at this little marquis who had stimulated their curiosity.

After a long, long time, many people recalled their first impression of the little marquis, which was those eyes.

The eyes were red around them, and the eyes were stricken, like a young beast suddenly trying to live on its own. Surrounded by wariness. At the same time, it is full of curiosity.

It's just a cute cub, and it's supposed to be a pampered cub.

Now, he was looking at this world that he was not familiar with those eyes, looking at this world, and he was about to face a qiē.

Curious and defensive.

Those who watch are curious, those who watch are heartbroken, and those who watch are distressed.

The experience of being forced to grow up. It's always like that, people don't know what to say.

However, if you don't say something, you will feel very uncomfortable.

"Little Hou Ye, the place to rest tonight has arrived." The envoy of Chu said.

"Oh. Good. Barry replied. Under the leadership of the envoys of the State of Chu. The first to walk into the inn.

As soon as I stepped into the door of the inn, I thought that there would be a warm welcome from a guy. When I walked in, I was not greeted as I imagined. There are several tables of guests eating in full swing, and some because of who has an extra sip of soup. Whoever takes a sip of soup is arguing with each other.

Between the dinner tables, there are impatient men on the floor. Frowning, when putting the food, listen impatiently to the words of the guests.

On the side, the shopkeeper was slowly calculating the abacus in his hand, "only in the abacus, and his ears did not listen to the affairs of the palace."

"Single-mindedly."

"Two, brother, two good."

"Three, three, three."

"Four, four seasons."

"Six, six, six."

"Seven, seven."

"Eight said that the eight immortals have arrived."

"Nine singing and nine long."

"Ten to the full."

"One Sight Joy, Two Treasure Flowers, Three Dao Lotus, Tetracycline, Gallnut, Six Shenyuan, Seven Grains of Powder, Eight Treasure Pills, Leek (Nine) Vegetable Seeds, Ten Perfect Supplements."

"Linjiangmen, No. 1 Bridge, Two Intersections, Three Turns, Four Archways, Five Miles, Six Kilometers, Qixinggang, Baqiao Township, Nine Feet Ridge, Shibanpo."

The sound of various fists rang out.

The smell of food in the air is still so appealing.

The envoys of the State of Chu and their entourage have appeared in the hall for a while, and no one is greeting them. One of the attendants went up to where the shopkeeper was standing and said, "Shopkeeper, eat." ”

The shopkeeper still bowed his head and counted the abacus.

"Shopkeeper, eat!" The squire's voice was a little louder, he was already hungry, but now he smelled the fragrance of such food, and his stomach was even more hungry, he just wanted to eat quickly, he just wanted to eat something good quickly, to fill his stomach.

The shopkeeper still ignored him.

Someone had already gone to handle their meal, and the envoy of Chu took Bai Rui to sit on the side first, waiting for the food to be served.

Looking at the people at the tables around him who were swinging their fists, Bai Rui's eyes widened and he asked the envoy of Chu State: "What are they?" ”

"Little Hou Ye, they play this called rowing boxing." The envoy of Chu felt very relieved, and finally found an opportunity to talk to the little marquis, "Boxing is a kind of folk wine order. As for its origin, no one seems to have studied it yet. What is a stroke boxing? To put it simply: two people hold out a hand at the same time, use a clenched fist and stretch out one to five fingers to indicate the numbers from zero to five, and at the same time, shout the number from zero to 10 in their mouths, if the numbers indicated by the two outstretched fingers add up to the same number as the number shouted out by one of the people's mouth, then that person wins the punch. ”

"For example: if one person stretches out three fingers, another person stretches out four fingers, one person shouts seven, and another person shouts six, then the person who shouts seven wins; If one person stretches out a clenched fist (meaning zero) and shouts three in his mouth, and the other person who happens to have three fingers out and shouts seven in his mouth, then the one who shouts three wins. It's as simple as that. Of course, if you shout "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", and you only stretch out one finger, then even if the other party stretches out five fingers, it is impossible to make eight, this kind of fist is called stinky fist, if it is not agreed in advance, it is to be punished for drinking. ”

"First of all, the number shouted when drawing a fist cannot be shouted as one and two as two, but replaced by an idiom. Zero should be shouted as "treasure"; First, it should be shouted as "respect for you wholeheartedly", which reflects the respect for the other party; Second, it should be shouted as "good brothers" to indicate that the relationship with each other is close; Third, it is generally shouted "three-star Gaozhao"; Fourth, we should shout "four red and four happy" or "four happy to wealth", which means auspicious; Fifth, we must shout "five leaders"; Six shouts "six six six shun"; Seven shouts "Qiao to seven", which means that the Cowherd and Weaver Girl are matched on the seventh day of July; Eight shouted "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea"; Nine shouted "drink quickly", and some simply shouted "fast". Ten is shouted as "full house" or "all arrived" (pronounced liao pronunciation)". Therefore, from the language of the boxer, the cultural level and even personality characteristics of the person can also be judged. When drinking in Xinjiang, when punching fists, they shout "five, five, five, six, six, six When shouting to eight, it is not the traditional "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", but shouting "Let's jump on the ground", which makes people laugh. ”
