Chapter 3: The Old Farmer Who Carries Melons
Riding on the red dust, the dust and smoke are billowing out.
"I saw people covering their whereabouts. It is the good weather that remembers the bow. ”
Li Hong hummed a small song, Zhang Yuangan "Spring is Good, Wu Ayajian".
As everyone knows, people sit on horses, and pots come from heaven.
The old man carrying the melon saw dust in the distance, but there was no one in sight.
"At this speed, the old arms and legs of the old way can't stand it, so I have to change the method, no, it's not the old way, it's the old farmer."
This old man carrying melons is the old man on the mountain, the old man changed his clothes and performed the Taoist "Qingfeng Step".
I waited for Lord Li's "arrival" on the road early, and picked a melon in the backyard of the Taoist temple.
Li Hong hasn't understood that the trouble comes from the mouth, and people have to take the blame!
"The weather is good。。。。。 Yes. ”
I saw a black shadow flying towards Li Hong, the horse was galloping, and Li Hong was bound to fall off the horse when he stopped, Li Hong took out a knife on the horse and slashed it, and the red liquid splashed on his face.
Li Hong's luck was in his chest, and he exploded instantly, and his internal force came out with the sound.
"Those who block the Jinyi Guard's case, there is no mercy for killing."
Before Li Hong finished speaking, he heard a "wow".
"My lord, you pay me for my melon, that's the melon for my grandson in the city."
Li Hong looked down and saw an old farmer sitting in the middle of the forest road.
Will this be Li Hongmeng? Did you just hit someone too quickly? Could it be "touching porcelain", wait a minute, what does it mean to touch porcelain? But I always feel that there is nothing wrong with describing this thing in front of me.
The old man sat on the ground and continued: "My lord, the old farmer is from Xiagou Village, and today I went to the city to visit my grandson, but I didn't expect the official to come quickly, I am so old, my legs and feet are not good, and I was hit by you without dodging." ”
"Did you hurt yourself, old man?" When Li Hong heard that the old farmer was from the village of Xiagou where he lived, he relaxed his vigilance and hurriedly went up to help.
"My lord, my leg and foot are sprained, I'm afraid I can't walk the road, but it's a pity that my watermelon, my grandson is still waiting to eat, what can I do?"
After Li Hong heard this, he reached out to wipe off the watermelon seeds that splashed on his face when he split the melon, and took out the scattered copper coins.
"Old man, the official still has some things to do, I will pay you some copper money, you can buy two pieces of medicine yourself, buy a watermelon, and go to visit your children and grandchildren another day."
The old farmer stretched out his hand and accepted the money, "My lord, this is polite, this is not a matter of money, the key is that my grandson has a birthday today, I promised to go, it's not good not to go, I think my lord's horse is good." ”
Yes, there are horses, this old farmer can't go by horse, it's really witty.
"I'll help the old man get on the horse, you're done, let's go into the city." After Li Hong helped the old peasant get on the horse, he led the horse and rushed to the imperial city.
At this time, the old farmer who was easy to look at was on the horse, and said in his heart: "This Li Hong is really a bad person." ”
At this time, Li Hong shuddered, "It's strange, how can it be cold in this hot weather today." ”
I'm afraid it's a good guy card, and it has a cooling effect.
A few more miles on.
"My lord, wait a minute, the old farmer's leg is numb, you can help me down and move." The old man said with a wicked smile.
At this time, Li Hong didn't know, and thought that he was doing a good deed, should he leave his name when he parted with the old man for a while?
"Okay, slow down, I'll help you down." Li Hong hurriedly helped him down and put it on the ground, wanting to check the injury.
Just after the old farmer landed, he inadvertently turned his head and looked into the horse's eyes, and his mental power was released. On Li Hong's side, he only saw that the horse seemed to be frightened, and turned around and ran towards Xiagou Village, where he lived before.
"This horse is running, how do we two get to the Imperial City?" Li Hong still wanted to catch lunch, so he asked anxiously.
"A little further is the official road, where the imperial city enters, and the merchants are continuous, so you can temporarily go the same way." The old man sat on the ground and pointed forward.
That's right, there must be businessmen passing by on the official road in front, and I showed the identity of the hundred households in Jinyiwei, not to mention that there are rich businessmen rushing to let me get in the car, but it's no problem to find one at random.
At this time, the Jinyi Wei was subordinate to the emperor's general manager, up to the emperor's relatives and relatives, down to the pawns and people, all had the right to arrest, and special circumstances can be cut first and then played, no one has the right to interfere, even if the Jinyi Wei violates the law, the internal prison department is responsible, and outsiders have no right to intervene.
If the background is not strong enough and provokes Jinyiwei, he will be charged with "preparing to rebel and make trouble", even if he is killed, no one cares.
This also makes the Daming Law from the six-grade sesame official plus the word Jinyiwei unattainable in the eyes of ordinary people, and the officials who are a few grades above the top do not dare to underestimate it, and they are also called brothers and sisters on weekdays.
Of course, Jinyiwei also has its own rules and regulations, and no one dares to touch the insiders, and it is not excluded that there are some bold ones, but in the end, they are all thrown into mass graves outside the city, and no one cares.
At this time, Li Hong picked up the old farmer and walked forward, "Oh, slow down, my leg is not good." The old farmer shouted. Li Hong was taken aback.
"Old man, don't shout, I can hear the quiet, it's not far, then I'll carry you." Li Hong carried the old farmer on his back.
The old farmer opened his mouth and laughed, and quickly closed his mouth, tears about to come out.
"How am I, hear you laughing?" Li Hong turned his head to look.
"Old man, me."
"How could I laugh, old farmer, my leg hurts to death." The old farmer almost slipped his mouth.
"Why do I feel a little familiar with this, no matter what, let's talk about it when I get to the official road first." Li Hong thought in his heart.
The old farmer was behind, and secretly performed the three tricks of "Qimen Dunjia", the "B" and "C" formulas in B, C, and D.
After this "B" character trick is cast, the illusion in it can be derived, that is, the influence of spiritual power or the surrounding magnetic field, the caster, in Li Hong's eyes, is still walking on the path of no one in the woods.
After this "C" formula is cast, the speed in it can be derived, that is, he overdraws his physical limit or increases his physical limit with the help of external forces, and increases his speed, and after combining with the "B" formula, Li Hong unconsciously increased his speed and rushed to the imperial city.
Pedestrians on the road only saw a young man with an old man on his back, running on the road, and constantly accelerating, people could only see the back.
"No, why haven't you arrived at the official road yet, you can't be too tired, it's estimated that it's almost there, hurry up." Li Hong is in ignorance.
Fortunately, it is only less than twenty miles away from the imperial city here, and using the "C" word trick in the three tricks of "Qimen Dunjia", it will be under the gate of the imperial city in less than an hour, but even if it is a cultivator, he must do what he can, and he does not dare to use it at will, it is nothing more than an emergency to use the limit of the body to save his life, or to kill the enemy.
After use, the body is weak and the limbs are weak, and those who are high in cultivation will recover in a moment, and those who are low in cultivation will need half a day or a day to recover. This moment of weakness brings opportunity to the enemy, and life and death are only in a moment.
The old peasant on Li Hong's back had already removed the disguise technique and returned to the old way, and his clothes had not changed at that time. Seeing that the city gate was approaching, Lao Dao first removed the "C" character to slow down, and at this time Li Hong was still in the illusion, and he did not look tired.
After a while, Lao Dao removed the "B" formula, and the illusion disappeared in an instant.
"Suck, why am I so tired, my legs are weak." Li Hong saw the imperial city tower in a daze and fell to the ground, Lao Dao jumped down and pushed Li Hong again. After Li Hong fell to the ground, Lao Dao squatted down and turned him over.
"Layman, layman, can you still remember the old way." Lao Dao said with a smile.
After Li Hong looked at the old way, his physical strength was overdrawn when he moved his fingers, and he fainted.
Lao Dao took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured out a brown pill, and said to himself, "You have a fate with Lao Dao, and you have a chance to be in your body, Lao Dao will give you a Qi Qi Qi Pill to open up the connection between your dantian and the meridians, do not overdraw your physical strength, your body is completely relaxed, and you can't achieve the effect, even if you don't have to get through, it all depends on your creation." ”
The old way turned away, took two steps, and came back again. "It's a bit bad to throw it here for you, the old way has its own virtue of a good life, for the sake of the face of the Sanqing Patriarch, I will give it to you, and send it to Lord Wang's mansion, which can be regarded as accumulating merit."
Lao Dao walked to the city gate with Li Hong on his back and asked the guards at the city gate: "Little brother, do you know where the house of King Qianhu of Jinyi Wei is?" ”
"Where did the old puppet come from, Lord Wang's home is also something that a pariah like you can ask? Go away, don't go to the back into town. The guard scolded with a red tassel gun.
"Little brother, don't worry, you see who I'm carrying, the hundred households of Jinyiwei, fainted from heat stroke, I sent it to his colleague and friend's house, and the little brother can't afford to be a guard if something happens." Lao Dao said.
The guards will take a closer look, isn't this the Lord of the Brocade Guard! The official mansion wearing brocade clothes and guards still has a brocade order hanging on his waist. Look at the harmless smile on the face of the old farmer.
"I'm me, I'm not recognizable, don't tell adults, I'll go and inquire." The guards, who were so frightened that they stammered, hurriedly called the small flag on duty at the city gate. (The Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei implemented a military system, and promotions were calculated according to military merit, and the positions were roughly the same as the army, consisting of small flags, general flags and other positions)
The small flag guarding the city gate, where the market deals with merchants who go from south to north, can also be well-informed, and will also come to things.
"This lord, there is only one Wang Qianhu in this Jinyi Wei Qianhu, if you look for him, you can go to the West Second Lane, and you can see the courtyard of Lord Wang's house when you go." Xiaoqi said politely to the old man.
As soon as Lao Dao heard the word "this master", his heart floated up, this person can speak, yes, and he sent a good person card.
"Thank you for this layman, the old Taoist is a real person in the Sanqing Daoguan of the Sanqing Dao Temple in Qingyun Mountain, Xiagou Village, fifty miles away from the imperial city, the old Taoist sees that he has a fate with you, now you count a hexagram for the layman, you stretch out your hand."
Li Hong PS on his back: Hey, old Taoist, didn't you say that I was going to die of heat stroke...... Why don't you rush and start business!
Xiaoqi stretched out his hand: "It turns out that the Deep Void Dao has been looking up for a long time, so it will trouble you." ”
"Your wife is happy, the old Tao is right."
"The Taoist is right, it's been six months."
Lao Dao put Li Hong on the ground, pinched his fingers, and wrote and painted on the ground, if Li Hong didn't faint and saw this scene, he must be familiar, "If the poor road is not mistaken, the two sides of yin and yang are divided, men and women occupy one side, and there is slightly more yang, it will be a boy." Whether there is a life of great wealth or a life of studying and becoming an official can not be seen until after birth. "Lao Dao bought a pass.
Xiaoqi was very excited: "The Taoist master's clever calculation must be right, and after the child is born, he will have to trouble the Taoist chief to calculate another one or two." Xiaoqi bowed and said.
Lao Dao said loudly: "It is difficult to calculate, and we will know when the time comes." On his back, Li Hong turned around and left.
"Boss, boss, aren't you afraid of meeting liars?" The guard asked.
"Do you know why, I'm Xiaoqi, are you a guard? Eyesight, didn't you see that he was carrying Lord Jinyiwei? At a glance, you can see that Lord Jinyiwei and the Taoist master know each other. ”
"Hehe, there are still two months of pregnancy in June, a few days after giving birth, come to the Taoist temple, it's almost winter, and the food money for this winter is gone."
Lao Dao felt like he had eaten honey in his heart.
