No. 296 Crazy Donkey

Xiahou Ying said: "Less nonsense! The more you say this, the more I am suspicious." The top of your head is valuable, and you are reluctant to ask us to ride, so I won't change it. There is another thing, you can't call the four-legged porter and the two-legged porter, we don't like it. Anyway, we won't kidnap your head and donkey, we will be waiting for you in Wulongping when we arrive early. ”

The porter said: "That's okay! Don't hide it from you, our gang of feet is to run Yanshan, and we don't go anywhere else." These dozen donkeys, accustomed to this road, if you kill it, it will not go anywhere else. Wulongping also has our partners there, you go to the place to give foot money, go to you, they will never ask you for more money. Our kind of trading, don't look at the unprofitable, the same rules. ”

Xiahou Ying said: "We want to give less money, how can the people over there know? Could it be that your donkey has a special ability to carry letters, do your partners know the language of beasts?"

The porter said, "Guest, you are making fun of us again, and in a moment we will all become animals again." ”

Xiahou Ying said: "It's not that we are scolding you, I don't believe you will have this ability." ”

The porter said: "There is no basis for the words, when you get to the place, you don't count the money for more wine, if you ask for more money, or ask you to give less, I will transfer the donkey to you." ”

Xiahou Ying said: "If what you said over there is really right, I will give you double money for foot strength." ”

The porter said, "Don't talk about it, guest!"

At this time, Sun Haotian had already led the donkey and walked a few steps, and when he heard Xiahou Ying's bet with the porter, he turned his head and said, "You are fooled!"

Xiahou Ying was stunned, she didn't know what was going on, so she led the donkey away from the donkey gathering. Sun Haotian, Gan Zhong, and Gan Xiaoquan stepped on the back of the donkey, and Xiahou Ying also got on the donkey, pretending not to pay attention, twisting his head and asking lightly: "Hey! That water pass is very close to Wulongping, right? I went to ask for it a few years ago, and I went by water, but now I don't remember it at all." ”

The porter was stunned and said, "Is that the water dividing pass? It's far away! You can't go there, and you probably have to take a boat to get there, but I haven't been there." As he spoke, the porter grinned at his companion and stopped looking at Xiahou Ying. There were four of them, and four black donkeys walked down a winding track and field.

These four black donkeys, all with copper bells under their heads, as soon as they walked, they couldn't stop ringing. The four donkeys were all fast enough, and they seemed to know the path, and they did not need to be driven, and they walked through the fields in no bad direction. Although the four of them don't know the way, fortunately, the peak of Yanshan is eye-catching, enough to discern the direction, and they will never go wrong.

Walking out of Lixu, Sun Haotian said to Xiahou Ying: "You have been cultivating the spiritual path all these years, why don't you even know this little trick of the porter?"

Xiahou Ying couldn't help blushing and said to Sun Haotian: "Castle Master, the disciple really doesn't know the reason for this, please ask the Castle Master for advice to see and hear." ”

Sun Haotian then said: "There is nothing mysterious in it, but he is secretly buckling the reins of the donkey, or the chewing ring or the belly belt." Their own number, only they know. Don't say that we can't find the secret mark he made, even if we find out, we can't guess how he calculated, whether it's the North or the South. ”

When Xiahou Ying heard this, he suddenly felt ashamed that he had seen and heard shallowly, and hurriedly said to Sun Haotian: "The castle master instructed and ordered the disciple to gain more knowledge, how can the disciple know that there are these secret business scriptures? Twice asked the people in the vicinity, and the expressions of these two people seemed to be well aware of what they answered, but they refused to say it quickly. The expressions of these two people are by no means the henchmen of the Fengwei Gang, but although they are peddlers and pawns in this area, when it comes to the Fengwei Gang, there is a lot of talk about the tiger's color, which shows how strong the latent power of the Fengwei Gang is. ”

Sun Haotian said: "According to our speculation, this water pass must be the nest of the Twelve Docks, but even if there are people who know, they don't dare to tell us, we have to try to step on it ourselves." ”

Xiahou Ying nodded and said, "What the castle master said is very true, and I also think that the more I ask them about such henchmen, the easier it is to arouse their suspicions." ”

The four of them rode on donkeys and galloped through the fields, and sure enough, there were several single-plank bridges along the road, which were stretched across the ditch. These donkeys walked safely over it, and they did not hesitate to fear.

Gan Zhong said to Xiahou Ying: "The porters are not all talking, and sure enough, these donkeys are abnormally healthy. ”

After walking for five or six miles, a river in the distance surrounded a village, and the rows of mulberry elms outside the village were thick shade, and then while the river was bursting, the branches and leaves of the trees were swaying. There were two or three idlers sitting in the shade of the trees, quite leisurely. Looking at this village from afar, it is like a picture.

The itinerary of the four of them is from the small bridge in front of the entrance of the village, passing by the edge of the village, and there is no need to enter the village. These four donkeys are really Xia Houying, the donkey is fast, and he jumps in his head all the time. Xiahou Ying wanted to strangle his mount and let the castle lord go, but he always grabbed the head, although the castle lord refused to blame, he also seemed too presumptuous. But this time I came to find an awkward relationship with this donkey, this donkey by its temperament, it is a natural and logical carriage for you, as long as you are restrained and whipped, it will immediately make sex. You tell it to run, it stops, you call it stop, it lets go of its hooves.

Xiahou Ying scolded angrily: "Brute, you are asking for a beating, I don't have the ability to punish you, and let your master see that I can only talk big." ”

At that moment, he crossed the small bridge in front of the village, and Xiahou Ying clasped on the back of the donkey. Walking close to the tree, he reached out and picked up a branch. When Xiahou Ying got the branch in his hand, he immediately tightened the reins with one hand, and used the branch as a horse stick with his right hand.

Xiahou Ying scolded: "Damn beast, you are looking for a fallen frieze, I told you to run!" Relying on the reins in Xiahou Ying's hand, he tightened it and did not allow it to enter the entrance of the village. When Xiahou Ying gave it two more branches, the donkey jumped and hissed, and then rushed to the east of the village.

Just when Xiahou Ying's donkey turned his head, he suddenly heard a burst of silver bells behind him, and the sound of hooves was audible. When I looked back, I saw a donkey rushing out of the mouth of the village, and the donkey's fur was very harsh, black and white. The reins on the donkey's body are full of copper bells, and the golden light is dazzling.

The donkey rider was actually a young woman, about thirty years old, with a melon seed face, willow leaf eyebrows, but the eyebrows were hanging, the nose of the official, the mouth of the ingot, and the cheeks were higher. Such a handsome appearance, tarnished by eyebrows and cheekbones. The head is wrapped in blue silk, and the horns of a silk handkerchief are used on the front door, and they are kneaded into moths and butterfly buttons, and the head is very long, and it is draped at the back of the neck; a blue silk shirt, a blue satin shirt, and a pair of small brute boots are underneath, and a yellow package is obliquely on the back, and it can be seen from the appearance that there is a blade inside, and the reins are held in the left hand, and a short horsewhip is held in the right hand. Even people and donkeys, not stained with dust, very clean and neat. Judging from this dress, it looks like a wandering prostitute and a horse runner, but the clothes and spirit are not very similar.
