Chapter 140: Return to Jindu
Not long after breakfast, I heard footsteps outside, one light and one heavy, one Zhou Xiaofu is very familiar, it is Sun Wang, and the other is very light, this must be a martial arts master.
Zhou Xiaofu walked to the door quietly, and immediately heard Sun Wang knock on the door, Zhou Xiaofu gently opened a crack in the door, and heard Sun Wang whisper: "Master Wukong is here." β
Hearing this, Zhou Xiaofu quickly opened the door.
I saw the small-eyed monk I saw last time, looking at Zhou Xiaofu with a smile on his face, he was not surprised at all by Zhou Xiaofu's male dress, as if Zhou Xiaofu should be like this.
After the people came in, Zhou Xiaofu told Sun Wang that it would be good to come over in half an hour.
After the old monk came in, he found a place to sit down without waiting for Zhou Xiaofu to let him, and he was not curious about the people lying on the couch at all.
Zhou Xiaofu sat down opposite the monk and said, "Thank you for coming." β
The old monk said with a humble face: "The donor ordered someone to come with the beads of the senior brother, and the old man felt that the donor was afraid that he was in trouble, so he came." β
Zhou Xiaofu exhaled and didn't have time to greet him, and led the old monk into the couch inside, and said, "This is the prince of Anding." β
Master Wukong, who was originally calm, thought that Zhou Xiaofu's friend was injured and asked him to come to heal or something, but he didn't expect it to be the prince of stability.
I stepped forward to investigate, and saw that the pulse was calm, all the wounds were bandaged, and there was no fever, but the person who should have woken up was still asleep.
Zhou Xiaofu seemed to see the old monk's question and said, "I gave him sleeping drugs, so he didn't wake up." β
The old monk nodded, and Zhou Xiaofu explained: "The one outside is a stranger, he chased and killed the prince of Anding, and was knocked out by me, and he also took sleeping drugs." β
"The Adept?" The old monk was stunned.
Zhou Xiaofu thought for a while before he arrived: "Wind ability, natural ability, but only three or four levels, last time I told the master's senior brother Wu Xuan in the Great Wuxiang Temple, I have met other abilities, it is this wind ability, this is this person." β
Master Wukong received a letter from his senior brother, and he also knew what Zhou Xiaofu said, so he went over to take a look at it with curiosity, this is a young face, it looks like he is twenty-three or four, but he is shorter.
Zhou Xiaofu glanced at it, time was running out, it was too long, and she was afraid that something would go wrong, so she hurriedly said her plan.
But the old monk didn't seem to know that Zhou Xiaofu was in a hurry, so he asked again: "By the way, I couldn't detect this courtyard with my spiritual power before I came, even if I can see it with my eyes when I get closer, but I can't detect it with my ability, what's going on." β
Looking at Wukong's curious baby's appearance, Zhou Xiaofu suddenly had a toothache, and said angrily: "Go back and tell you, you first find a way to get people away for me, otherwise I'm afraid that those people will be in trouble if they find them." β
I was in a hurry, but when I saw that the old monk looked like I wouldn't move if you didn't say anything, a cup of tea passed, and Zhou Xiaofu was suddenly a little annoyed.
The old monk said unhurriedly: "I'm afraid that this wind system ability will be pulled by spiritual power, so that even if I take him, I will be discovered." β
Zhou Xiaofu rolled her eyes, what the old monk said also made some sense, but she always looked like she was robbed by fire.
Angry, he couldn't help but say, "I'll sue you later." β
The old monk took a sip of tea with satisfaction and said, "When the Dharma is done, you ask Master Sun to put people in the carriage, and I will take them away." β
Zhou Xiaofu asked with some hesitation: "Are you alone?" Do you need me to escort you back? β
The old monk smiled and asked about something else: "Is there still that energy bead, senior brother only gave me two." β
Zhou Xiaofu was stunned for a moment, let me talk about other things, why is the old monk so thick-skinned, first he forced him to sue sΓΉ about the matter that affects the exploration of spiritual power, and then asked for energy beads, it is really enough, Wukong, do you know that you are like this.
Qi pretended to take something from his purse, took out a small handful of energy beads, and stretched out his hand to Master Wukong.
The Wukong monk didn't seem to see Zhou Xiaofu's pretty face, and counted it carefully, there were fifteen, and there were some beads in each energy system, and he happily took out a green cloth bag from his arms and put it up, and put it back in his arms.
Zhou Xiaofu suddenly cried and laughed when he saw him like this, this old monk, it is really not cost-effective to help himself for so many benefits at one time.
After a while, Sun Wang came and sent a carriage, and Zhou Xiaofu first tied the wind powerhouse with a thin rope in a few places in the room, and searched all the things on his body and put them next to the old monk before putting the two of them in the carriage together.
Seeing the monk smiling at himself, he suddenly had a big head, so he led the monk to find the magnets around the room and put them in the carriage.
The old monk took the two magnets and put them in his hand and sucked them together, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Zhou Xiaofu, Zhou Xiaofu nodded and asked Sun Wang to find a new horse for him, Sun Wang said a little embarrassed: "There are only two horses in a certain family, one horse is a carriage to send to your friend, one is a mare, and now she is pregnant with a foal, I'm afraid"
Zhou Xiaofu was depressed, this Sun Wang was so poor, he had to settle down, open the back door, and wait for the monks to leave through the front door, and then he quietly walked through the back door.
Zhou Xiaofu went back to the room arranged for her first, cleaned up and went out, this time Sun Wang was waiting far away at the door, and the people near the door had already been sent away.
Just when Sun Wang was in a hurry, a strange girl came from afar, this girl was dressed normally, but she looked very heroic, not like the ladies they can have in this small county, but does this have anything to do with this girl appearing in his house.
Zhou Xiaofu coughed and said, "Master Sun, I don't know each other." β
Sun Wang heard that this is Childe, how did he become a girl, and when he saw Zhou Xiaofu smiling, he suddenly realized: "Childe is really a tall pole, a man pretends to be a woman." β
Zhou Xiaofu's face darkened instantly, Sun Wang didn't feel that he had said something wrong, and he was puzzled, Zhou Xiaofu angrily asked where the car dealership was, and went out alone.
Sun Wang saw Zhou Xiaofu leaving, and stood at the door alone for a long time, did he say something wrong, don't you think, he shook his head and said that this noble son is really strange, he loves to be angry so much, and he likes to dress up as a woman, but it really doesn't seem to be like it, and he closed the door and returned home.
Zhou Xiaofu took out her bib and belted it, and rented a wide carriage or two from the rental car shop to go to Jindu.
A person on a horse, the snow stopped yesterday afternoon, and there were many carriages coming and going, and the road was clean, the first snow, it didn't rain much, the weather was not very cold, and the pipes were already clean except for both sides of the road.
Zhou Xiaofu sat in the carriage and found a blanket to cover her body, she was a little worried last night, she didn't sleep much, it would relax and the tired person fell asleep.
I don't know how long I walked until I heard the driver in front of me knocking on the window.
Zhou Xiaofu responded in a daze, and listened to the coachman: "Miss, it's time to arrive at the post station, there are still more than two hours to arrive, can you see what to eat?" β
Zhou Xiaofu stretched her waist, scanned it with her mental power, and saw that the carriage stopped at the door of an inn, so she agreed, "Okay." β
After getting out of the carriage, the coachman led the horse in and let the little guy take care of it, and Zhou Xiaofu told him to go in and arrange food.
This inn is a simple inn on the pipe, nothing to eat, just a little hot food.
ordered two plates of cooked beef, hot steamed buns, and hot soup, and Zhou Xiaofu took off her hat and cloak.
After a while, she saw that the coachman also came, and this time she chose an old coachman, who looked honest and loyal.
Seeing that Zhou Xiaofu ordered food, he beckoned the servant to bring him a bowl of hot water, saying that he had brought dry food.
Zhou Xiaofu said with a smile: "Old man, I packed the food on the road, everything was ordered, didn't you waste it if you didn't eat it, one person, one bowl of soup and one plate of beef, you will wrap it up if you can't finish eating." β
The old coachman was a little flattered when he heard this, and there were no men in the fields in winter, so he found a man in the car dealership.
This girl is going to a far place, and most people pick young people with good strength, this girl is probably afraid that something will happen, so she looks for him, and she can get five hundred dollars when she comes back this time, and she has to eat what other girls buy, he is a little embarrassed.
Zhou Xiaofu ate first, and the old coachman watched it for a long time and ate it too, but he just drank some soup and brought his own dry cakes.
Zhou Xiaofu said helplessly: "Old man, if you don't eat some meat, there is still a way here, what if you don't have the strength to catch the car." β
The old coachman just took a few slices of beef and chewed them carefully, drank two bowls of soup, and Zhou Xiaofu, who ate dry food, found a guy to wrap some beef and steamed buns for himself. He also asked the man to pack the rest of the old coachman for him.
The coachman was holding a bag of food, a little at a loss, Zhou Xiaofu had to say: "You eat the leftovers, just take them, you can't throw them away, that's a pity." β
As soon as the old coachman heard this, he immediately hugged the things, this plate of beef is large, more than two catties, he ate a few slices, and there are five or six steamed buns left, and the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the family gave birth to a baby, and the family is reluctant to give her white noodles, and this white flour bun will take it home.
Then the two of them went on the road again, and there were still two hours left, and as soon as they entered the city of Jindu, they heard the guards guarding the gate shouting that there was still a quarter of an hour, and they were ready to close the gate.
Zhou Xiaofu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally arrived in time when the city gate was closed.
After the carriage arrived in the city, Zhou Xiaofu asked the old coachman to park the carriage at the door of an inn, took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the old coachman.
The old coachman glanced at it and said, "Miss, the old man doesn't have any money to change, so he has to find a shop to change it." β
Zhou Xiaofu said with a smile: "The carriage and horse fee is three taels of silver, and the remaining seven taels will be rewarded to you, accept it." β
The old coachman had heard the young men of the car dealer say that some guests would give some silver taels generously, but he had never heard anyone say that he would reward as much as seven taels of silver, and he was a little afraid to accept it.
Zhou Xiaofu said with a smile: "I am a girl who wants to go back to the house alone, fortunately the old man sent me to it, compared to this seven taels of silver, I am worth a lot, you keep it, just remember to change it during the day, and hand it over to the car dealer to keep it, remember to collect the money, don't live in the shop, otherwise it will be troublesome if you lose it." β
When the old coachman heard Zhou Xiaofu say this, he happily accepted it, and felt that he had done too little for this young lady.
Zhou Xiaofu turned around and left quickly.
Walked all the way to the door of the general's mansion, tidied up his clothes and knocked on the back door, the back door seemed to be guarded in advance, and someone opened the door as soon as he knocked on the door.
The door opened, and it was a young man who looked very similar to his eyebrows, looking at Zhou Xiaofu with an anxious face. This person is none other than his brother Zhou Xiaoyang.
