vs 18 Steward Hu
In the next few days, someone practiced guns with peace of mind, and went to teach the brigade to waste bullets on time every day, and after a week, his marksmanship was much more accurate. During this time, the gold thread in the ring not only joined into a circle, but also became a little thicker. Cao Chuan knew that it was time to go, and now the energy accumulated by this cargo should be enough to cross back and forth two or three times, and there must always be extra teleportation times, and it is necessary to save his life in an emergency at a critical moment, right?
Drive to the wholesale market early in the morning, put the remaining bags of salt into the ring, and then go back to the neighborhood and go upstairs to lock the door. took off Burberry, put on a green sermon robe, yellow frosted shoes, sat in front of the mirror and skillfully tied his hair in a bun, and in a trance he felt that he was back on the set again, putting on makeup.
looked at the young Taoist priest in the mirror and nodded: Yes, it looks like Bai Zhantang.
Looking at the watch, at half-past eleven in the morning, "Well, just in time for dinner." Cao Daochang laughed, and the next moment, he appeared in the hut of the screen village.
Glancing at the furnishings in the room, he messed up the bed, and then pulled the latch and shouted: "Zhao Si Zhao Si!" ”
Within two minutes, Zhao Si appeared in front of him with a smile, and then changed his face instantly, and said dementedly: "Sir's robe...... Ah, the hairstyle has also changed! ”
Cao Chuan asked with a smile: "Isn't it like a Ming Taoist?" ”
Zhao Si would react at this, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Like, it's more like the real thing, the Daming Taoist is not as neat as Mr., nor is he as tall and strong as Mr." ”
Cao Chuan laughed: "The masters are all here, don't lead the way." As he spoke, he and Zhao Si went straight to the bluestone platform.
Zhou Tong, Chu Jianli, and Lu Wendao happened to be the three of them just talking about him, and they saw Zhao Si leading a young Taoist priest over, and looked at it, who was it not Cao Chuan!
In view of the fact that someone has to bring everyone a surprise every time, this time everyone has some experience, Zhou Tong quickly understood, and quickly got up and said: "Sir, this is a new line, look at this Ming dress, it's really, it's really ......."
Seeing that Zhou Tong couldn't pick it up, Chu Jianli hurriedly added: "Fengshen is handsome!" ”
"Ah yes, Togami Junlang, Toyojin Junlang."
Cao Chuan laughed, this is really not him pretending, in this screen village, he Cao someone really deserves these four words.
As far as he had seen, there was one in this village, and all of them were third-class cripples. One meter six five can be a crane, the standard of chickens is one meter five or six, and they are generally old chickens. He couldn't tell whether he was thirty or forty years old, let alone his teeth, from the uncle to the minions, all of them were full of yellow teeth and messy teeth......
After everyone sat down, Cao Chuan explained: "Changing into a Ming dress is also convenient for future travel, so as not to be caught by the county master in strange clothes to play the board." ”
Everyone laughed: "Who dares to hit Mr.'s board!" Zhou Tong smiled and glanced at Lu Jiaofang, and they both saw one thing in each other's eyes: this is preparing to go out.
Laughing here, Zhao Si over there had already brought out the porridge and chopsticks, and Cao Chuan was also not polite, so he started eating the dried bamboo shoots and bacon on the table, and asked while eating: "There have been no changes on the mountain these days, right, the second master has not come back from cutting people down the mountain?" ”
Zhou Tong replied: "A few days ago, the people of Baizhuang fought again, this time they didn't suffer, there were a few more injuries, and now they can only suffer, whoever can't eat, whoever has to bow their heads." ”
Cao Chuan heard Zhou Tong say that there was still a tug-of-war under the mountain, so he didn't worry about it anymore.
He didn't have a gun at the moment, and even if he had, he didn't plan to participate - the gun was used by his old man at a critical moment, not to help the bandits grab the territory.
A few people were eating and chatting, Cao Chuan was lying on a bamboo chair, listening to Zhou Tong and a few people blowing, while wandering out of the world, at this moment, I saw Chen Huoding striding here.
Second Master Chen saw Cao Chuan grinning, arched his hand and said, "I've seen Mr., but by coincidence, this time I went back to the mountain, I met Mr. out of the customs." ”
Before Cao Chuan could answer, Zhou Tong next to him had a gloomy face: "When will you return to the mountain, don't you send someone to report the news first?" ”
Chen Huoding sat down with his ass, first drained half a bowl of tea, and then said: "It's urgent, I went to the mountain in the morning, and Hu San came to worship the mountain, and he was in the lobby." ”
Zhou Tong was even more puzzled: "You two came together?" ”
"This morning, Hu San came to Hengtang and said that there was a big matter to discuss with the eldest brother, and he listened to the tone, and it was inevitable that this big event would fall on the head of Baizhuang, so I would lead this guy up the mountain. The eldest brother can rest assured, there is nothing to do under the mountain, and Zhao Wutian has always been steady. ”
Zhou Tong sneered: "What big and small things, Zuo just wants the brothers to work hard, it's an old trick." Anyway, since Hu Da Butler is here to worship the mountain, this face is always to be given. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Tong waved his hand to Zhao Si on the side: "Four, go and ask Steward Hu to come up." ”
Zhao Siyi slipped down the mountain and ......
Cao Chuan was a little curious, and asked Chu Jianli next to him, which way is this Hu Steward?
Chu Jianli then introduced to Cao Chuan: The Hu family is the number one squire in this left, there are many people and many places, there are in-laws who are officials in Suzhou Mansion, and there are clansmen who have been working as bookkeepers in Lin'an County for generations, and there are still villages in the mountains, and they can eat both black and white. The housekeeper Hu who came today is a distant relative of Master Hu, and the Hu family's affairs on weekdays are all handled by Hu San.
Chu Jianli went on to add: Hujiazhuang is not far from Lin'an County, a few years ago, the two were opposites, the screen village robbed the Hu family's goods, the Hu family was not polite, launched their own green forest and Zhuang households and the screen village people and horses to fight, the relationship has eased a lot in the past two years, and the two families began to join forces with Baijiazhuang again.
As he spoke, Zhao Si walked over with a person, Cao Chuan couldn't tell the age of this person, he could only say that he was no more than forty years old, black and strong, with an ordinary face, wearing a short robe of homespun cloth, wearing a hat, and a short knife in his waist.
This housekeeper Hu was full of anger when he spoke, and before he got closer, he hugged his fists and laughed: "It seems that Hu San came at the right time today, everyone is here, and I just saw that the village is so prosperous, and Uncle Zhou is in charge." ”
Zhou Tong got up and beckoned Steward Hu to sit down: "Hu San, Hu San, don't be busy pouring the ecstasy soup first, what is your master's errand, will you send it down?" ”
Steward Hu smiled, did not reply to Zhou Tong's words, but hugged his fist at Cao Chuan and said, "This friend looks at Miansheng, don't you know?" ”
Zhou Tong hurriedly said: "This is Mr. Cao." ”
Cao Chuan didn't say a word, threw down the pine nuts in his hand, and bowed his hand to the shopkeeper Hu with a smile.
Hu San has been on the rivers and lakes for many years, and as soon as he greets him like this, he knows that the young Taoist in front of him is a character. Tall, with a mouthful of white teeth, sitting here without any restraint, looking at Zhou Tong's style, he refused to say a word more, "Is it a newly tied meat ticket in the screen village?" Hu San thought secretly.
