Gift
Guizhou City
A few months later, the century-old shop "Linjiang Xian" in Guizhou City suddenly changed its door, and a new liquor banner was hung on it, which read "Taibai Liquor Shop"!
The old owner of Linjiang Xian would not have sold his ancestral property anyway, but in recent months, strange things have happened frequently in his restaurant, either a dead mouse was eaten in a good soup, or a dead cat was hung upside down on the beam; The day before yesterday, there was a group of splashes who fought in the store for no reason, and only a monkey-like man spat blood from his mouth and was dying...... Frightened, regular customers from all walks of life did not dare to fill the door, and the business of the restaurant was so bleak that it was unable to maintain. In desperation, the old owner thought that he was afraid that the number of families was exhausted, and it was useless to force him to stay, so he tearfully told his ancestors and gave his own wine to the owner of Jiutong Warehouse.
After Uncle Fan took over, he immediately changed the lintel and changed the cheesy name of the restaurant ~ "Taibai Liquor Store".
The new opening of the old store is naturally to celebrate, the upstairs and downstairs are full of pits and valleys, and the people who are all strong men are all sturdy men, who are responsible for welcoming guests, and they are a little bored.
Hu Si crossed Erlang's legs upstairs, slanted Fan Jiutong, the new owner of the restaurant, and said: "Old Fan, since the Taibai Liquor Shop has reopened, why don't you send someone to pick up Chunmei and reopen the Chunyan Building?" Fan Jiu informed this guy that he was thinking, and he was dealing with it indiscriminately, noncommittal. Meng Hu, who was sitting next to him, answered angrily: "Fourth, aren't you itchy again?" Be careful that Brother Xu comes over and beats you! "The upstairs and downstairs are all their own brothers, who would not know the reason? Hearing this, the audience burst into laughter......
Let them laugh and play, but Xu Cun, who was sitting on the main seat, had a gloomy face and did not say a word.
During this time, he took his brothers to do the business of stealing chickens and dogs, although he was forced to make a living, and every time he went out to rob the road, he only took one percent, leaving room for others, but after all, he was doing a shady business, even if he now had some savings in hand, he turned into a serious business, but the depression in his heart always lingered.
Just as the brothers were joking and messing around, Xiao Liu, who had fast legs, ran in and whispered in Fan Jiutong's ear: "A gentleman came to the door, saying that he was here to give a congratulatory gift!" Lao Fan was stunned when he heard this, and looked upstairs and downstairs with a suspicious face, these killers are all used to eating and drinking for nothing, which one is like a gift of benevolence and righteousness? When I first came to the state, I lived both in people and land, and I did this kind of loss-making business of stealing and selling stolen goods, and there were still people who came to give gifts to me? Then you have to hurry up and see a rarity!
Fan Jiutong rushed to the door to greet the guests, and saw a middle-aged scribe with an elegant demeanor, standing outside the door, and when he saw Lao Fan coming out, he took out the gift slip from his arms, and said with a smile: "Contemptible He Yin, I wish the Taibai Liquor Shop the dawn of the clouds, and the spring tide brings rain!" Fan Jiutong was a god, what Mr. Ren said, he didn't understand a word. However, Lao Fan was used to it, and he knew that it must be auspicious words, so he hurriedly bowed down to thank him, and asked with a smile on his face: "Dare to ask Mr. Yes?" The middle-aged scribe smiled and didn't answer, but ordered the servant behind him to carry the congratulatory gift in, and bowed to Fan Jiutong and said: "The congratulatory gift is delivered, and the contemptible person will say goodbye, and come back to bother him another day!" Without waiting for Fan Jiutong to answer, Shi Shiran left.
Xu Cun was in a good mood when he held the prayer post in his hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe! There are big customers who are going to patronize our brothers. Seeing that the brothers were still at a loss, he explained with a smile: "This Mr. He Yin who came today is the confidant and strategist of Guo Yu, the assassin of Guizhou. ”
Xu Cun said with great interest: "This Guo Thorn History, originally surnamed Cheng, had no line when he was young, and he was also a splash on the street, and later because of drunkenness and murder, he was forced to leave his hometown Qingzhou, and changed his name to Guo Yu incognito, and mixed among the bandits. ”
It wasn't until later that Guo Yu got acquainted with the strategist He Yin, listened to his plan, abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and took the initiative to serve as a famous school under Chen Ru, the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu. Guo Yu is also brave, and in just a few years, he has become Chen Ru's confidant.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long! Ten years ago, Chen Ru sent his general Zhang Gui to Langzhou to quell the rebellion, but this Zhang Gui had a ghost in his heart, and suddenly returned to kill Chen Ru, seized his Jiangling City, and called himself the envoy of Jingnan Jiedu.
After killing the lord and seeking glory, Zhang Gui naturally would not let go of Chen Ru's beloved general Guo Yu, and in desperation, Guo Yu led thousands of people to return to the state at night.
Even if Zhang Gui had evil retribution after that, when Zhao Deyan's army besieged Jiangling, he was betrayed by his subordinates and cut off his head, and Jiangling Mansion has changed hands. But Guo Yu did not change his original intention, and while recuperating with the people in Guizhou, he recruited warriors with his troops and horses, and always wanted to recover Jiangling as a shame for the old lord Chen Ruxue. ”
Xu Cun looked around with a smile and continued: "You and my brother have traveled thousands of miles, and it has been several months since they came to Guizhou, I have heard that this Guo Thorn Shiyi Bo Yuntian, and cherishes the people is a Ming master, but he is a newcomer, and he has no way to work, today Mr. He Yin is visiting, I and other brothers finally have a way out, and there is no need to do this cut path to make a living in the future!" Xu Cun smiled and asked, "Brothers, do you say that we will do this deal or not?" ”
……
One wants to buy and one is willing to sell, naturally it is a hit and it off, the atmosphere is harmonious, the first time I met He Yin, he took Xu Cun to walk in the mountains, and the two talked very happily!
He Yin looked at the position of Guizhou, but he was indifferent by nature and did not like luxury, and only lived in a few grass houses in the mountains. The two of them are wise and smart, and they know each other's hearts in a few words, and they both have a sense of hating each other!
Just when the two humble gentlemen were talking and laughing, something flew out of their faces, and they could not be smashed, and they couldn't dodge it in a hurry, and finally impartially leaned on the face of Xu Cun.
Xu Cun, who was suddenly attacked, suddenly lost his demeanor, his face was covered with nosebleeds, and his expression was extremely embarrassed! Squatting on the ground and holding the attacking object, I looked at it and saw that it was a juju ball.
Leaning slightly, a little woman hurriedly ran out of the house, wearing a red narrow shirt and short skirt, wearing a pair of clogs on her feet, panting and sweating. Seeing that he was in trouble and injured Mr. He's guest with a juju ball, he stood in place with a sigh of surprise, a pair of beautiful eyes that wanted to cry, and he was at a loss.
Just when the atmosphere was embarrassing, a person slowly walked out of the grass house and shouted loudly: "Lingwan, and greedy for trouble!" Don't hurry up and apologize to Captain Xu! ”
Xu Cun raised his eyes and saw that the person who came was in the prime of life, with a medium stature, a straight nose and a wide mouth, and an extraordinary bearing, on a fair face, a pair of thick eyebrows were very conspicuous, two deep nasolabial folds added a bit of majesty to the army, and a pair of brilliant eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, which made people dare not look directly......
He Yin saw someone coming over, and stepped forward to introduce Xu Cun and said, "This is my Guo Gong." Xu Cun learned that the person who came was the famous Guo Yu, so he quickly wiped off the nosebleed on his mouth, threw down the kicking ball and stepped forward to salute.
The panicked little woman next to her finally came to her senses, gently twisted her skirt, and squatted down to apologize to Xu Cun: "Lingwan acted abruptly, and I hope Captain Xu will forgive me!" Xu Cun hurriedly bowed and returned the salute: "It's okay, it's okay!" He stretched out his hand and wiped the nosebleed, and muttered, "The girl has good foot strength, good foot strength!" ……”
……
When he went out, he was magnificent, but when he came back, his nose was crooked, his eyes were slanted, and his shirt was covered with blood. As soon as Xu Cunfu returned to his residence, he attracted countless exclamations and onlookers. When the brothers heard what was going on, they were relieved, and they couldn't stop laughing.
Hu Si, who was unwilling to be lonely, jumped up and down with great excitement: "Boss Xu, this woman is so bad, she actually hurt you?" "Does your nose still hurt?" Do you want my fourth child to go out in person and capture that slut and let you spank you to relieve the hatred in your heart? "Let's roll up my arms and sleeves, and look like a hero who wants to stand out for others. Xu Cun's nose hurt and his heart was irritable, and he squeezed out a word angrily: "Get out of ......" "Boss Xu, don't learn from my family to speak!" Hu Si continued to make noise, and Xu Cun was afraid that he would make fun of him endlessly, so he quickly diverted the topic.
During a casual conversation with Guo Yu, Xu Zheng learned that Qin Zongquan was assassinated in Caizhou City, and although he did not die, his legs were cut off.
Zhu Wen commanded the four-way army under his command to defeat the Caizhou army in Longbei and advanced to the city of Caiyang. Recently, it has broken through the north gate and entered the outer city. The Caizhou army was scattered, and the subordinate generals who were in other places changed banners to serve the imperial court, and the isolated Qin Zongquan could only retreat to the inner city to resist stubbornly.
Qin thieves were trapped in the city of sorrow, inevitably depressed, living in seclusion all day long, drinking and prostitution, in their own mansion, and under the protection of many close army guards, there was no change.
Unexpectedly, one night, Qin Zongquan was sitting high in the hall drinking, but a big hole suddenly broke in the ground under him, Qin Zongquan was caught off guard and fell into it, and when he screamed again and again, fortunately, the personal guards around him were all martial arts masters, and they quickly tied Qin Zongquan's belt with their hands and eyes, and pulled him up with all their might. But after lifting his body, he found that the old thief Qin had lost his legs.
The guards hurriedly guarded the entrance of the cave, raised the lamp and looked down, only to see that the cave was dusty and full of figures, the assassin did not love to fight after a successful blow, and had turned back and retreated along the tunnel, the guards hurriedly chased into the cave to get people, but finally failed to capture, only to see that this person was holding a black and swarthy ox ear sharp knife, and his left hand was empty and should be one-armed......
"Huh! This isn't the Iron Hook Ranger of Brother Deer, who else could it be? Meng Hu shouted loudly;
"Hey, hey! Unexpectedly, he was locked up in the vegetable cellar for more than a month, but he learned the art of digging holes! ”
Lu Ben narrowed his small eyes and said with a look of relief; The smug look on his face is like an old father who wants his son Jackie Chan to finally get his wish.
"Awesome! The Iron Hook Ranger can be called the twin heroes of the world along with today's Lady in Red! ”
Hu Si was also amazed! But at the same time, it is clear that he does not intend to let go of the unlucky Xu Cun easily!
