Chapter 3 Eastbound
What Duan Zhong would look like, this was the only thing Chen had always wanted to know. Because of the maturity, wisdom and intimidating momentum shown by Duan Zhong in the letter, Chen Wei guessed that Duan Zhong was at least a mature man in his twenties and thirties. Duan Zhengjing didn't say that his beloved disciple was only fifteen years old, and Duan Zhong naturally wouldn't discuss his age with the county guard of Changsha Mansion in his letter.
Therefore, when Chen Weiwei saw the extremely "young-toothed" junior brother in front of him, he suddenly got wet...... Eyes are wet. Duan Zhong looked at the moist eyes of the county guard of Changsha Prefecture, and couldn't help but take two steps back, wondering if his senior brother had some kind of special habit...... After all, his appearance is still a little ...... Handsome.
So when Chen Wei took two steps forward and suddenly grabbed Duan Chong's hands, Duan Chong's only thought was...... Escape.
Chen Wei wet the corners of his eyes: "Teacher...... Is he okay with his old man? ”
Duan Zhong let out a sigh, and a certain part of the tension between the two strands finally relaxed.
"Master, he is in good health, reciting Buddha and chanting scriptures every day, and recently he has become obsessed with copying stories...... "The teacher in Chen's only mouth is naturally the old guy Duan Zhengjing.
"It's good, it's good!" Chen Weiwei also noticed his gaffe, and hurriedly retracted his hand, "I always thought that the little junior brother was at least twenty or thirty years old, but I didn't expect to be so young, he is really a young man!" ”
Duan Zhong laughed twice, such compliments naturally heard a lot, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Senior brother, I didn't come here this time to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but there are some things to discuss with senior brother." ”
Chen Weiwei laughed and said: "Where is this, thanks to your care in the past few years, I Chen Weiwei can survive to this day, otherwise if you want to find me today, I am afraid you will have to go to the mass grave in the north of the city." Since you are here, as a senior brother, I naturally have to treat me well, otherwise how can I be worthy of the kindness of my teacher and the affection between you and me. ”
Duan Chong waved his hand again and again: "There is no need for this good hospitality, my meeting with my senior brother is originally a private matter, and it is inconvenient for others to know." Otherwise, I wouldn't have sneaked out to meet you so late. Rejecting Chen's only kindness, Duan Zhong picked up a seat in the house and sat down, took a sip of the tea that had been prepared, and found that it was already a little cold, but he still drank it dry: "Have the past two years been peaceful, senior brother?" ”
Chen Weiwei nodded, sat down next to Duan Chong, saw that Fu Yousu on the side had been standing, and then stood up to show him a seat, and then said: "The days are naturally much better, those thieves came to plot against the old man several times, but they were all killed by Brother Fu, and then they were calmed down." These thieves have not appeared in the past two years. ”
Duan Zhong smiled with satisfaction: "That's fine, as long as the senior brother's net worth is safe, the master will be able to explain it." I want to tell you two things. "Brother, please speak."
"The first thing is that Brother Fu is leaving Changsha Mansion." This Fu brother. Naturally, it refers to Fu Yousu.
"I can't help it!" As soon as these three words came out, Chen Weiwei realized that he had lost his words. Fu Yousu can be said to be his own protection card, if Fu Yousu leaves, he will encounter another assassination attempt on his half-hung martial arts who has only five and a half stages, and he will most likely die. Therefore, the county guard of Changsha Prefecture, who has always been steady, showed a panicked look after hearing the news. Fear of death is in the nature of all people.
So Duan Zhong patted his senior brother on the shoulder and said, "Senior brother, don't worry, although Brother Fu is leaving Changsha Mansion, but this time, I brought you two swords, these two swords were obtained by me with great difficulty, in terms of strength, they are a little higher than Brother Fu." "Just kidding, the two swords under Xiao Limen, the number one master of the Liang Dynasty, even Zhu Siwen may not be able to fight.
Hearing Duan Chong's words, Chen Wei only relieved his heart: "Dare to ask where are these two swords now?" ”
Duan Zhong patted his palms lightly, and then he heard a soft sound of "poof", and there was no movement. Chen was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask what the situation was, but he heard a "bang", and the window of the inner room actually fell down squarely, and the four boxy sword marks left on the wall.
Chen Wei touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and only after a while did he grind out a sentence: "These two swords...... It's amazing. ”
Duan Zhong laughed and patted Chen Weiwei on the shoulder: "Senior brother, with these two swords, you naturally don't have to worry about safety." And presumably it won't stay too long in Changsha Mansion. I will stay in Nanjing and Jiangnan for a while on this trip, and I will wait there for my brother to arrive. ”
Nanking? Gangnam? Chen Wei was a little confused, why did he suddenly say that he couldn't stay in Changsha Mansion for long? Do you have to ...... Did you get promoted? But even if he wants to be promoted, how does his junior brother know?
Duan Zhong saw the blank expression on Chen Wei's face, arched his hand and said, "In the future, there will be a place to rely on senior brother, please take care of senior brother." So I took my leave. He poured a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and turned to say goodbye.
This night, Duan Zhong didn't say much, but he seemed to have exhausted the saliva in his mouth.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Still climbed over the wall and walked out of the gate of the county guard's mansion, walking on the empty street, and seeing that he was about to fall down the door of the Yushengtang, Duan Chong stopped at this time, stopped Fu Yousu, who had been following behind him, took out a small note from his arms and handed it over: "You go to the outer building of Nanjing to find a person named Ji Wuchang according to the address on this paper." Once you find him, he'll arrange everything for you. Also, you, the rest of your life's apprentices, orphans, and those who are willing to go with you, will all be brought to Nanjing and handed over to Ji Wuchang, and he will deal with it. Duan Zhong paused and continued: "There are too many people in the Yusheng Hall, don't enter together when you enter Nanjing, enter separately." You should pay attention to this. Also, in Nanjing, the business of this martial arts hall can still be opened...... It is also good not to ask for money, but to take more apprentices from street children. When I arrive in Nanjing, don't recognize me even if you recognize me, and when the time comes, I will look for you. ”
After Duan Zhong finished speaking, he thought about it again, and felt that there seemed to be nothing more to explain, so he nodded to Fu Yousu with satisfaction: "That's all." You're good to go. ”
Fu Yousu was stunned, less than two hours after meeting his little master, he was about to separate, and he really felt a little bad in his heart. Fuck, myself or not a man?
Duan Zhong seemed to see something, and smiled: "We'll see you when we get to Nanjing!" He waved his hand and slowly walked into the darkness.
Fu Yousu sighed, turned around and pushed open the door of the Yusheng Hall, and returned to his small courtyard, only to find that his eldest apprentice Liu Qiang was already waiting in the courtyard, and dozens of his apprentices were standing behind him.
Fu Yousu frowned: "What are you all standing here for?" ”
Liu Qiang stepped forward and said, "Master, why aren't you in the courtyard so late, we've been waiting for you for a long time." ”
"You don't have to worry about what I'm going out for. But what are you doing in my yard in the middle of the night? Go back and pack your things. ”
Pack your things. Everyone heard a hint of it.
Liu Qiang bit his lip and knelt down with an ordinary voice: "Master, the rest of the hall can't be closed!" Dozens of voices fell to the ground on their knees, "The Rest of Life Hall can't be closed!" ”
These apprentices are all orphans adopted by Fu Yousu, and they regard Fu Yousu as their father and the rest of their lives as home, and Fu Yousu knows this feeling. So Fu Yousu sighed and reprimanded angrily: "The big man kneels at every turn, what kind of body is it?" When did I say that the Rest of Life Hall was going to close? Let's go back to the house and pack up my things, and we're going to open the Yushengtang to Nanjing!" Fu Yousu took a breath and put his hands on his waist, "Also, what you do tonight will naturally be punished." After arriving in Nanjing, everyone is not allowed to go out for a month! ”
——————————————————————————————————————————————
Duan Zhong said goodbye to Fu Yousu and suddenly discovered a terrible thing. It's yourself over there...... Lost. If it was daytime, Duan Zhong could still walk back along the road he came from, but at night, he couldn't tell the difference.
Therefore, when Duan Zhong tossed around for most of the night to find the inn, and sneaked into the room to sleep and rest, he heard a knock on the door...... Su'er, come and shout to yourself to get up.
Duan Zhong rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat in the carriage and said this to Su'er while nibbling on meat buns. It's not that Duan Chong doesn't want to sleep, it's not that he can't sleep in this carriage, but Su'er asked Duan Chong to ...... Tell a story.
So when Duan Zhong finished telling a little story, he was really tired, and decided to get out of the carriage to raise his spirits.
At this time, the carriage had already left Changsha Mansion, and Duan Chong had decided to stay in Changsha Mansion for a few more days and have a good rest, but after talking to Fu Yousu and Chen Weiwei, Duan Chong suddenly found that he had a lot of things to do, so he temporarily decided to take a day off and set off.
At this moment, Duan Zhong got out of the carriage, asked Jiang Mingchen for a horse, turned over and rode on, and ran forward with a clatter. Riding on horseback, Duan Zhong suddenly became interested, and remembered a small poem, Zheng Chouyu: The sound of my clattering horses' hooves is a beautiful mistake, I am not a returnee, I am a prostitute.
Duan Zhong carried forward his shameless nature as always, and soon compiled this little poem into a small song and sang it, and from time to time he slowed down or accelerated the speed of the horses with the rhythm, which was really very emotional. Zhu Siwen rode a horse and followed behind his little master, and the black lines behind his head came out one after another...... Which country's song is this, why is it so vulgar and awkward?
Vulgarity is naturally Duan Chong's true color, but vulgarity also needs to talk about some time and occasion, for example, now, Duan Chong is not vulgar. Duan Zhong rubbed his eyes and looked at the dozens of bright machetes in front of him: "Good guy, you can meet a real thief now!" ”
