Chapter 29: Making Friends
The main street of Anyang City.
Zhong Bai was strolling down the street, followed by several servants.
"Childe, don't you play in Anyang for a few more days? The villain heard that there are still a lot of good places to go here. A servant came up and said.
"Forget it, my son is not very interested, this trip to Anyang is also on the order of my father, to visit the county guard of Anyang, since the task is completed, there is no need for us to stay here." Zhong Bai replied casually.
Then, he smiled slightly again and said, "But before leaving, I still have to go to Liucheng." ”
Knowing what he meant, the servant couldn't help but say, "Childe, it's just a little Liucheng captain, what kind of identity is Childe, it's too much to promote him, right?" ”
"Huh? You don't understand, there is no harm in having one more friend. Zhong Bai didn't explain much, and while speaking, several people also came to a restaurant, and were just about to enter, when at this moment, there was a sudden chaos on the street in front of them.
Zhong Bai couldn't help but stop and look.
Under the commotion of the crowd, screams arose, and a fast horse was galloping.
Immediately, an officer and soldier were slamming their horse's buttocks at this time, constantly shouting: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! ”
He seemed to have some emergency to report to the above, ignoring the crowd, the whip in his hand was constantly whipped and the war horse was galloping.
Pedestrians on the street avoided one after another, debris was scattered all over the ground, and under the pushing, some people fell to the ground, and some people hit a cart of goods on the side of the street.
The cart of goods was piled up very high, and there were sacks full of things on it, perhaps before it could be tied, and the sacks on it fell off under the skew of the goods.
And right now, there was a little boy of five or six years old, looking around at a loss, looking for his parents.
The sack was very large, and it was extremely heavy at first sight, and if it were to be smashed, the little boy would be seriously injured if he did not die.
At this critical moment, there was a sudden shout from the oblique, and then, a figure shot sharply, instantly picked up the little boy, did not see him make any movements, only moved slightly under his feet, and his body was out of the range where the sack fell, and then the sword was not unsheathed, and the sack was supported by the scabbard, and with a shake of the wrist, the sack flew back to its original position.
You know, he didn't grab the sack with his hands, but with the scabbard, and the sack didn't know how heavy it was.
It was a young man, dressed in a well-dressed manner, not luxurious, just an ordinary cloth robe, and his figure was not burly.
At this time, the commotion had passed, and the little boy's mother also came to him, hurriedly hugged the child, and thanked the young man: "Thank you, thank you, thank you, ...... strongman."
"Huh? No thanks. The man waved his hand haughtily.
Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Zhong Bai in front of the restaurant couldn't help but smile slightly, and couldn't help but praise: "This person is so skilled!" ”
As he spoke, he also led the servant into the restaurant, but it didn't take long for the man who rescued him to come in, apparently to eat here.
In this restaurant, there are not many guests, after the man came in, he first subconsciously looked around, and then sat down not far from Zhongbai, and began to greet Xiao Er to drink.
He was alone, so he was very easy to greet, and after a while, Xiao Er brought the wine and food, and the man began to eat and drink.
Zhong Bai at the adjacent table couldn't help but look at him a few more times with interest.
There was no word during the banquet, and soon, the man had eaten and drunk enough, and then got up and shouted, "Little Er, settle the bill." ”
"Hey, come on." The shopkeeper hurriedly ran over.
But soon, the man's face showed embarrassment, and the right hand that reached into his arms to take out the silver did not take it out for a long time, and the shopkeeper also kept looking at him.
It wasn't until a long time later that he laughed dryly, then his face was hot, and he said embarrassedly: "Little second brother, can you discuss ......?"
"What do you mean, guest officer?" Before he finished his words, the shopkeeper had already seen it, and he had already put away his smile, straightened up and said with a straight face: "Isn't the guest officer going to eat the overlord meal?" ”
"No, no, no, walking the rivers and lakes in the next place, it has never been like this, don't misunderstand, little second brother." The man waved his hand again and again, his face turned red, and he also explained: "The silver has been with me before, but I don't know when I lost it, otherwise, I will bet this sword on you first." ”
"How many silver is your broken sword worth?" The shopkeeper glanced at the sword on the table with disdain, and then said, "If the guest officer doesn't settle the bill again, don't blame the store for being unkind to you!" ”
As the saying goes, a penny is difficult to defeat a hero, with a man's skills, if he really wants to eat this overlord meal, how can the shopkeeper stop it, obviously, the money on his body was either stolen or accidentally lost.
At this time, seeing that the man was still awkwardly explaining, the shopkeeper immediately prepared to call someone.
"Wait!" Zhong Bai stood up and said directly: "Don't embarrass this strong man, isn't it just the money for a meal, I will settle it for him." ”
As he spoke, he also directly took out the silver, shook his hand and threw it to the shopkeeper: "Are these enough?" ”
Yo! Such a big silver ingot, the shopkeeper's eyes immediately glowed green, and he hurriedly took it in his hand and checked it, and then, his face was full of smiles again: "More than enough, more than enough, the son is slow to use, the villain will not bother here......"
After the shopkeeper retreated, the man was stunned for a moment, and then inevitably looked at Zhong Bai with some doubts, because the two had never known each other, and the silver that Zhong Bai casually threw out just now was enough for an ordinary family to live for a long time.
After he was stunned, he also subconsciously said: "Childe, this is ......"
"Huh?" Zhong Bai smiled and waved his hand, and said: "Just a little money, how can you worry about it, a strong man is a hero, and the property on his body must have been stolen by thieves, so that he is embarrassed for a while, how can he be humiliated here." ”
What he said was very skillful, not only did not break the man's face, but also called him a hero, which made the man very useful, and at the same time he was grateful, he immediately hugged his fists and said: "Gongzi broke the siege, so that I will not be humiliated, and I have not asked Gongzi to respect his name, he will come to thank him in the future!" ”
"Oh? The strong man is called Liang Yuan? Zhong Bai first said a word, and then also bowed his hand and said: "In the next Zhong Bai, it is also an honor to be able to make friends with heroes like strong men today, today's affairs, strong men must not take it to heart, only when you and I make friends......"
This is Zhong Bai, a handsome son, who likes to make friends, never stingy with money, in his house, I don't know how many chivalrous people in the rivers and lakes, and he is even more famous.
