Chapter 287: North and South Yanshan
Sun Haotianfu divided this cadre into four groups. Shuangzhang Town Guanxi Xin Weibang said to Sun Haotian: "Junior brother wants to take the inferior disciples to go first, if I can successfully enter the Twelve Links Dock, I will try to send a letter to Senior Brother Wang." Since I, Xin Weibang, intend to help, I will never take into account my own interests. ”
At that time, Sun Haotian and Wan Liutang were busy saying: "Friends make friends, you know each other! Our moral friendship is not comparable to ordinary people, and Brother Xin must not take the liberty to engage in it." The Phoenix Tail Gang sent invitations three times, and we came, deliberately not indicating the location of our helm, which he deliberately gave us a moment. I estimate that when Wu Weiyang sees that we really can't find it, he will send someone to pick it up. I think that if Senior Brother Xin can not reveal his original intentions, forgive him and never turn his face and break off the friendship, let us enter the Twelve Docks, at that time, Mr. Xin's camera will be secretly assisted, and we can borrow a lot. Xin Lao Dart, don't be rash. ”
Shuangzhang Zhen Guanxi Xin Weibang nodded and said: "Brother, don't worry, I know that I am cautious, and I will never fail to help, but make a mistake." ”
At that time, Xin Lao Dart took his apprentice Flying Jade Bird Xiang Lin to go first, and a group of chivalrous people here also left the store one after another. Sun Haotian only took two brothers, Gan Zhong and Gan Xiao, and Xiahou Ying, and ordered Situ Qian and Zuo Heng to stay in the store and pick up those who arrived. He and Zhongzhou swordsman Zhong Yan, golden sword Qiu Ming, and life-sustaining doctor Wan Liutang, these four were divided into four roads, and this group of chivalrous ways was led by these three, and they each got up and went separately to explore.
Sun Haotian, the owner of Fire Ape Castle, took three teenagers out of Yonghe Shop, first paced on the streets of Dongpingba, secretly inspected the customs of Dongpingba, and saw that the street was quite prosperous. Sun Haotian took three teenagers, walked in front of a teahouse, and saw that the name of this teahouse was "Gentleman's House", selling tea snacks, tidying up quite elegant and tidy, the windows facing the street were all supported, there were many teahouses, crystal tea near the window, and the attitude was leisurely. Sun Haotian thought that this teahouse wine shop was the most crowded and miscellaneous, and it was easy to get started here, so he greeted Gan Zhong, Gan Xiao and Xiahou Ying, and walked into the gentleman's house together. This teahouse is even wider inside, and there are halls to greet you. Sun Haotian picked a seat and made tea. Sun Haotian saw that the tea sets in this teahouse were very particular, and they were all fine porcelain from official kilns.
Geographical map Xiahou Ying poured the tea on the table, and then saw a person walking in outside, about thirty years old, with a red face, thick eyebrows, wearing a gray cloth gown, carrying a yellow package diagonally, and below is sprinkled shoes and white socks, playing leggings, and the legs on both sides are all inserted into the forks, and at a glance it is a spiritual cultivator.
The cousin led the guest and sat down on the second table next to Sun Haotian's table, and asked the cousin to make tea. Originally, it was a small pot with a handle, a tea bowl, and the guest said to the cousin: "Man, bring another tea bowl, I have to hurry up, pour one more bowl to cool, and drink enough for me to leave." ”
The cousin didn't bother at all when he heard this, and said with a smile, "Just ask the guests what they want, we are here like the shopkeepers, drinking tea, eating, and resting, and I will bring it to you." He hurriedly turned around and went to get the bowl.
This guest spoke with a completely northern accent, and in the Sichuan region, a country with beautiful mountains and green mountains, it became more and more powerful. This kind of cousin has always been a snob, but this gentleman's cousin is so humble and obedient to such a coarse guest, which is really special. This teahouse is a gentleman's residence, which is worthy of its name, and even the hall is so polite, it really has the style of a gentleman.
Sun Haotian pondered the guy in the teahouse while secretly paying attention to this guest. The cousin then took the bowl and put it in front of the guest, who took the bowl and poured it a bowl of tea, and he pushed the teapot to the corner of the table, and the two bowls of tea were placed behind the pot in a three-star style.
A guest about forty years old who sat at the window table in front of him looked like a well-educated person, and his clothes were also very exquisite, and his appearance and behavior were peaceful and elegant. At this time, he suddenly stood up and came to the guest's table, and did not see him clenching his fists, but saw him raise his right hand and beckon, "Brother, are you looking for a ship?"
The man replied, "Friend, I have come from the river, and I still want to go from the river, can there be a smooth boat in the land of Guibao?"
The guest replied, "It's a good day, and when you get on our boat, you don't want to take another boat." Friend, how many people and how many goods are you?"
The man said, "There are only three people, and twelve pieces of goods." ”
The guest said, "It's a three-day journey, and you've walked a hundred and twenty miles, right?"
The man nodded and said, "Friend, please take a seat." With that, he moved the first cup of tea next to the teapot to the guest.
At this time, Sun Haotian was very close, and Gan Zhong, Gan Xiao, and Xiahou Ying immediately heard this kind of nondescript words said by the two, and knew that this must be a term on the spiritual path, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it.
Sun Haotian saw that they were easy to show signs in this situation, and hurriedly tapped the table lightly with his fingers. Gan Zhong and the others hurriedly lowered their heads, deliberately gossiping, and secretly still paid attention to the actions of the table next to them. I saw that the elegant guest sat down opposite the strong man with the accent of the Northern Regions, and vaguely heard the elegant guest say: "You should report to Wan'er!" The strong man with the accent of the Northern Regions spoke in a lower voice, and he couldn't hear several words clearly.
Although Sun Haotian's eyes were momentary, he was engrossed in the table next to him, and he could hear that his words seemed to be the first time to go to the helm and pay homage to a certain incense master. When the man replied, his voice was low, and there were some spiritual cultivation lips, and he only heard the words of the northern wild goose and the southern wild goose. Following this person's words, the elegant local kept looking at this side, and then the two of them actually asked the cousin to prepare wine and dinner. Sun Haotian drank two more bowls of tea, and also asked the cousin to order a few Lai, the four masters and apprentices, so they had breakfast in the gentleman's house. Sun Haotian hurriedly passed the meal account and immediately got up with the three teenagers. The two brothers, Gan Zhong and Gan Xiao, were reluctant to leave, because they wanted to monitor the two and want to go with them.
Sun Haotian immediately walked out without wandering, and when he arrived at the door of the gentleman's residence, Xiahou Ying said: "Castle master, these two people don't know anyone in the situation, but the person with a local accent actually came to the person and said some nondescript words, mixed with some lip dictionaries, and the more they talked, the more intimate they became. These two people's paths are too suspicious, castle master, why don't we go with them?"
Sun Haotian looked back and saw that there was no suspicious person behind him, so he whispered, "Haven't you seen it yet? These two people are the gangsters of the Fengwei Gang." They sailed on the water, using the gestures of the Phoenix Tail Gang during the day, but at night they used incense arrays, and tea arrays were used in teahouses and wine shops. Fang Cai, a strong man in the Northern Regions, must be his own gang of bandits, when he first arrived in the Sichuan region, he didn't know where his brothers in his gang were entrenched, so he came to this place where the flow was uneven and the travelers gathered, and used the tea array to show that he was under the command of the Fengwei Gang, and asked for help from the bandits here. I don't know much about this phoenix tail gang, but there are many secret gangs in the spiritual cultivation world, and although this secret signal is not clear, it is much the same. As soon as I saw this man, he asked the man to prepare two tea bowls, and even if the person who went out was too busy, he couldn't be so unmeasured. However, although the hall was very contemptuous at first, when the guest asked him to take the tea bowl, he was full of joy, which was really abnormal. When the two of them asked each other, I knew that they were gangsters. We're searching the phoenix tails' lair now, and we can't trace the location of the phoenix tails' nest from them. We will wait for him at the port, but if you see anything glaring, do not show your eyes so much. You must know that there are gangs everywhere here, and do not be careless. ”
As he spoke, he had walked through half of the long street of Dongpingba, looked back, and saw that the two had not yet come. Passing in front of a hawker, I saw that this vendor was selling fresh fruits, and he was already sixty or seventy years old, with white hair fluttering and a righteous spirit.
Sun Haotian clasped his fist at the old man and said: "Boss, we are on the road, passing by Guibaodi, we plan to go to Yanshan, we want to go by boat, but I don't know if there is a wharf here, how much does it cost to hire a passenger boat?"
Seeing that Sun Haotian was old and spoke more modestly, the peddler stood up and replied: "If the guest is going to Nanyan, Beiyan? If you go to Nanyan Mountain, you can be far away! It will take six or seven hundred miles from here to get there! To get to Beiyan, the road is not very far, but there is also a journey of less than 100 miles. Just for the waterway more, the early road is less, from here to take the river boat, the two Yanshan all go. ”
Sun Haotian said: "Let's go to the north of Yandang, does the boss know that there is a water dividing pass there? ”
The peddler was stunned and thought for a moment, and said, "Oh! The guests are on their way to the watershed, and you will be half a mile east from here to the port, where there are many passenger and cargo ships. Guests, not old men, our boat on the dock of Dongpingba, very neat, sailors are all good at boating, but the guests have to deal with them, one is not good, you have to suffer their losses. ”
Sun Haotian couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Why, do they still dare to have illegal acts?"
The peddler said, "No, they are not so bold on this river, but it is common to blackmail customers." They are a group of boat owners, and if the guests provoke him, they dare to beat them. I see that the guests are so old, and I don't have to fight with them for this kind of idleness. There are many fishing boats in the harbor, some of which can also carry guests, and guests can hire their own boats with much less trouble. The price of the foot of the boat is only two emperors a day!"
Sun Haotian thanked the peddler and rushed to the port with Brother Gan and Xiahouying. I saw that the closer the place was to the port, the more vendors there were, and from a distance I saw that the streets of the city were a stone's throw away, and the sails were like a forest, and the voices of the people were mixed. As soon as you get out of the town, you slow down your pace, don't go to the pier first, and only pretend to look around the area next to the town.
