Chapter Sixty-Six: Strange Old Man
Prospect summary: Ye Shuqiu took Mu Xiyao to the wonton fresh, sat far away from the crowd, by the window, looking at the scenery outside the window, blowing the cool breeze of late autumn, and slowly eating hot wontons-
Mu Xiyao took small bites of the delicious river fresh wontons, as if she was thinking about something-
Ye Shuqiu laughed softly, "What, is there anything you're thinking about?" ”
"Yes," she nodded, putting down the spoon in her hand, "where did you get all that money?" Aren't you a teacher gentleman? ”
"Mountain people have their own tricks-" Ye Shuqiu poked out a finger and made a silent motion, "Shhhhhh——,hh ”
Mu Xiyao blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Ye Shuqiu, who was sitting in front of her, tilted her little head, and seemed to be a little puzzled.
Where did his money come from?
Is it a robbery?
No, it's not right, if it's a robbery, the government has already had a notice, and I can hear about it-
Dad can't let him into the house......
Or is he using his own entanglement?
But...... How can a teacher be a teacher who is a few dozen taels of silver with a single throw?
Could it be that he has another identity?
Such a powerful person, he shouldn't just be a teacher, right?!
So what exactly does he do?
Mu Xiyao's mind flashed with thousands of possibilities, and she didn't even know that she picked up the spoon and touched it on the table a few times-
Forget it, I don't want to think about it, he does what he loves!
It's so powerful, maybe it's a dart head or a general, but it's not necessarily-
She thought wildly, and put the empty, slightly cool spoon into her mouth, and her red lips closed slightly—
Whoop –
"Ahh Mu Xiyao, who was in pain, screamed miserably, rubbing her cheeks, she thought that her teeth were broken-
"What kind of wonton is so hard—" she said dissatisfied, "and my teeth hurt!" ”
Ye Shuqiu looked at her, smiled faintly, and whispered, "What you eat is not wontons, it's a spoon-"
"Huh?!" Mu Xiyao was stunned for a while, and then looked at the spoon in her hand, and there seemed to be a small gap on the edge of the spoon-
It's pitiful, her teeth are almost falling out, but she didn't expect to bite a hard utensil!
"You're still laughing! Is it not deliberately not to say! Mu Xiyao blushed and protested dissatisfiedly to Ye Shuqiu, "You have seen it all!" I don't know how to remind me! ”
Oh my God, I'm embarrassed!
Ye Shuqiu spread his hands helplessly, "My palms have been shaking in front of your eyes a few times, seeing that you don't know what you're thinking and thinking so engrossedly, I am not embarrassed to call you, who knew that you used the spoon as a ravioli——"
"Huh?" Mu Xiyao looked away with some weakness and whispered, "That's ...... All right...... Next, under not as an example! Remember to remind me later! ”
"Okay~ Second Miss!" Ye Shuqiu took out a piece of paper and wiped his fingers carefully, and asked casually, "By the way, what are you thinking, you can't even tell the difference between a spoon and a wonton——"
"You, you, you, you! You have to take care of it! Forget that scene! Mu Xiyao said in annoyance-
If you know that Miss Ben is thinking about him, then Miss Ben should not raise her head in front of him!
(Mu Xiyao: Hey!) Deleted the above sentence! How bad it is for readers to see it! )
(Me: hush money-)
(Mu Xiyao: You go away!) )
(Me: That's it, anyway-)
(Mu Xiyao: Shut up Miss Ben!) Codeword Go! )
Mu Xiyao lowered her head, blushed and ate the wontons in the bowl in small bites, and the surroundings were lively, as if there was an embarrassing and lonely feeling on their side-
Let's talk about that purple -
After going upstairs, he looked at the bustle, but he didn't find Ye Shuqiu's figure, so stupidly holding a broken hat, standing at the place between the stairs and the second floor-
"Little girl, let Jean - get out of the way, thank you!"
Hao Zi turned around to look, it turned out that he was blocking other people's path-
"I'm sorry, boss, I'm in your way!" With that, she leaned sideways.
The old man coughed a few times and asked, "The little girl also came here to eat?" New time doing this kind of work? ”
What?
Hao Zi blinked and shook his head hurriedly, "No, no, no, no, I'm looking for someone-"
"Oh, oh." The old man nodded, twisted his goatee, and walked up—
As he went up, it seemed that someone saw him, and—
The surroundings became quiet—
"What's going on?" After all, Mu Xiyao is here for the first time, and she doesn't know what the situation is-
Ye Shuqiu turned around and squinted, "It seems that someone is here, it looks a bit like a storyteller-"
"Storytelling?!" Mu Xiyao's eyes lit up, and she quietly ran to sit down beside him, pulled his sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Is it like telling a story?" ”
"Hmm," Ye Shuqiu nodded.
"Wow——!" Mu Xiyao suddenly felt that her surprised voice was a little louder, and quickly covered her mouth.
Storytelling!
What story would he say?
Ye Shuqiu just squinted, but the old man seemed to notice something, and nodded at him from afar-
Ye Shuqiu's heart was stunned——
This feeling! It's very similar to the feeling on the old man of medicine.
However, the old man of medicine smells of medicine, and this old man seems to have a little more smell of metal containers.
This Huadu doesn't seem to be wrong!
Things are getting more and more interesting -
Mu Xiyao seemed to be startled when she saw the old man's appearance, and asked in Ye Shuqiu's ear, "Does he know you?" ”
"I don't know," Ye Shuqiu shook his head, "At least I don't know him-"
"Then what is he doing with his nodding while he is looking at us?" Mu Xiyao asked in a whisper.
"I don't know—just look at it!"
"Oh-well!"
Everyone upstairs put down the utensils in their hands, looked at the old man intently, held their breath, and seemed to be waiting for something-
"Ahem," the old man cleared his throat, "Old man, I'm not pretentious, everyone knows the old man's rules——! ”
Everyone nodded—
"Then, the old man will do things according to the rules!" I saw that the old man spread out his folding fan and clapped his hands, "If you have money to hold a money field, you don't have money to hold a personal field, Yu Lao said to me, I thank you all here!" ”
Everyone nodded.
Suddenly, a chuckle came from the corner—
It turned out to be Mu Xiyao-
She listened to the old words, was stunned, and accidentally couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
This guy is so much fun!
It turned out to be an entertainer, hahaha-
Leaning on Ye Shuqiu's shoulder, she chuckled for a while, as if she felt that something was wrong around her-
I looked up and looked—
Everyone was glaring at her—
Frightened, Mu Xiyao hurriedly hid behind Ye Shuqiu's back.
"Cough-" Yu Lao Dao coughed again, attracting everyone's attention back, "Now, start collecting money!" ”
It's really not pretentious!
Mu Xiyao looked at the old Taoist in amazement.
"Today, old man, I'm talking about the three seizures of Nancheng by the children of the Qin family!" I saw that Yu Laodao shook the folding fan in his hand, "The more you see the official reward!" The more wonderful I said, old man! ”
As he spoke, he walked into the crowd, and everyone consciously put the silver they had prepared in their hands on Yu Laodao's fan-
I saw that the silver ingots on the fan were more and more put in, but none of them rolled out—
"It's so strange—" Mu Xiyao said to Ye Shuqiu in a low voice, "Ye Qiu, how can he hold so much silver in that fan?" Aren't you afraid of dropping? ”
Ye Shuqiu didn't say anything-
He just looked closely—
The fan—
It seems that some of them are like spiritual weapons that the old man said about medicine——?
There are a lot of people, but Yu Laodao also walks very fast-
After a while, he walked in front of Ye Shuqiu.
He whispered beside Ye Shuqiu, "Xiaoyou, there seems to be a familiar smell of the old man-hehehe-"
Ye Shuqiu's eyes froze, and he looked up-
The old man had already returned to the place not far from the stairs—
"Since my friends are so supportive, I can't be stingy with the old man!" I don't know when the silver on Yu Laodao's fan is gone.
He took the tea handed by Xiao Er and thanked him-
As soon as the fan is closed——
There was a snap sound—
"We said last time - that Qin Bao snatched back Nan Ruo and seized the city closest to Nan Ruo, and the other party was unwilling, so-"
Everyone listened with relish, and seemed to be brought into the dusty battlefield by Yu Laodao's words, as if they were a member of the war-
"General!"
"How's the battle going?" Qin Bao stood on Nanruo City, looked at the white mist in front of him, and asked in a low voice.
At the age of only seventeen, he became a member of the pioneer battalion with his outstanding military exploits.
"The enemy is shouting!" The soldier beside Qin Bao said respectfully.
"Pick it up?" Qin Bao muttered to himself, as if he was pondering something.
"General!" The young general knelt down directly on one knee, "If you don't fight!" I'm afraid it will have an impact on our army! ”
"That-" Qin Bao pondered for a while, then raised his head and ordered, "Niu Meng, Meng Huang, Ye Li, Zhu Yang, each of you will lead a thousand soldiers and go to battle with me!" ”
That Ye Li dissuaded, "General! The battlefield is changing rapidly, the white fog is still filling, the vision is not clear, think twice! ”
"Are you afraid?" Qin Bao asked in a low voice, but didn't look at him.
"No—don't dare!"
"Since you don't dare, then what are you still shrinking back into! The other side has declared war! Qin Bao shouted angrily.
"No more talking!" He made a categorical decision!
"But—general, general!"
Zhu Yang stopped Ye Li, "You don't have to persuade him, General Qin is sure, have you forgotten what our army is called!" ”
"But—"
After a while, Qin Bao was wearing a silver dragon helmet, wearing a white moon kai, holding a red tassel spear, a breeze sword around his waist, and stepping on mountain shoes! Walked up to the city walls!
"Why don't you prepare?" His voice was always so low that he never wasted a superfluous word.
"The Last General's Order!" Several people retired—
It's just the hour of half a pillar of incense—
The Nanruocheng suspension bridge is falling with a clatter-
A group of about 5,000 iron horsemen left the city without a sound in the white mist.
The sound of the city gate drawbridge falling on the opposite side was not heard so that no one could come out, nor could I hear the horse bell ringing—
One of them asked, "Commander, how are you doing?" ”
The military advisor smiled confidently, "General Hui, I'm afraid that the other party is afraid of us and is just bluffing-"
"Oh-" the general seemed to trust his soldiers, "how does the division compare with the enemy and our army?" ”
"Our army can win!" The military advisor only said four words, but it made the general's heart reassured-
A group of more than 10,000 soldiers stayed in the cold mist for nearly a stick of incense—
"Qiya, why don't you see that there is someone on the other side to fight?" The general was strange.
"We should still be discussing the combat strategy—"
"It must be so-"
Suddenly, the rear army was in chaos!
"What's wrong! What's wrong! The general turned his horse's head angrily and looked behind him.
"Report-" A soldier staggered up, "Report to the general!" I, our back row is lost! Please come back to the general's aid! ”
"What!" The general was so frightened that he reined in the frightened horse under his seat, whipped him violently, and shouted: "Withdraw!" The enemy's plan to delay the army is also! ”
"Generals——! Generals"
"What's wrong again?!" The general was furious, and repented that he had not done it at the beginning—
I shouldn't believe the words of that half-hung military master!
"After—the rear is attacked! I don't know how many people there are! ”
"The left flank is attacked!"
"The right wing, the right wing has also been attacked!"
The military division was also panicked, "General, withdraw!" ”
"Why withdraw!" The general was furious, pulled out his broadsword in the saddle, and cut off the head of the soldier's dog, "Steady! Who's messing up first! Military order to be beheaded! ”
"Mislead me!" He looked up to the sky and roared, "Fight back!" Hit back! ”
It's a pity that the army is already in chaos-
It turned out that Qin Bao's plan was that while the vision was not clear, the five thousand iron cavalry were divided into three roads, Ye Li and Zhu Yang all the way, Meng Huang and Niu Meng all the way, and he led the iron cavalry all the way-
Bypass the opposing army, and run through it in three ways!
And they all took off the bells of the horses, and they took off all the ones that could make a sound, and wrapped the hooves of the horses in coarse cloth, and went around them silently—
"Behead the enemy! Occupy the city! Go back and celebrate! ”
Kill!
The enemy guard saw that everyone was in a mess, and his heart was flustered, and he didn't know how many people Qin Bao and them had come!
Seeing this, Ye Li took a bow and pulled an arrow-
I only heard a whoosh—
The enemy general was shot in the neck by his arrow in the midst of the chaos, and fell under his horse, trampled on with his hooves, and his whole man became a blurred mass of flesh, and died indistinctly—
"Good arrows!" Qin Bao praised!
Suddenly, a cold arrow shot straight at Qin Bao's chest guard!
"General!"
Zhu Yang, Niu Meng and others were shocked!
Reminders!
Smack-
The old man folded the fan and woke everyone up, "What's going on after the Dao, we'll talk about it next time——"
