Chapter 6 When you meet for the first time, take care of yourself
Wu Zhi and Long Wu walked on the streets of Xicheng, and Wu Zhi didn't speak along the way, of course Long Wu didn't dare to ask. After walking for a while, Wu Zhi stopped, looked at the shops on both sides, and asked, "Which is Ximenqing's pharmacy?" ”
Long Wu pointed to a particularly tall two-story attic not far away, and said: "The shop of the big official of the West Gate is the largest in Xicheng, Brother Wu, look at that signboard, that momentum, you can't find a second ...... in the entire Yanggu" Suddenly caught a glimpse of Wu Zhi and narrowed his eyes again, now he knew that Wu Zhi's action meant that Brother Wu was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. Hurriedly closed his mouth.
Wu Zhi sneered "hey", strode over, and said, "You wait here." I'm going to collect the protection money from the officials of your family's Simon. ”
The cold sweat on Long Wu's forehead came down in a flash, it wasn't because Wu Zhi said that he was going to collect Ximenqing's protection money, and now Wu Zhi said that he would go to the county government to collect the protection money, and he wouldn't be too surprised. He was afraid because of Wu Zhi's sentence "Your Ximen is a big official", and now Long Wu can also see that Brother Wu is clearly not right with Ximen Qing. Hearing that the tone in Wu Zhi's words was wrong, Long Wu hurriedly chased after him and said, "Brother Wu, wait a minute!" Simon Kid's protection money, how can you still use your old man's house, see if I get it, it will be a ......" In order to show his heart, he was a little unscrupulous, and only after he finished speaking did he come to his senses, and he glanced at Wu Zhi with a weak heart, and saw that Wu Zhi just smiled, and he didn't really want to go by himself, so he was relieved. Secretly wiped the cold sweat on his face.
Wu Zhi was amused in his heart, so he didn't deliberately tease Long Wu, after all, looking at his recent performance, he is still very loyal to himself, and he is also a clever person, and he will be considered a good hand when he runs errands in front of the saddle in the future. Wu Zhi thought for a while and said, "It's better for the two of us to go in together, lest they don't know what we mean for a while." "Long Wu didn't understand what Wu Zhi meant, but since Wu Zhi told him to follow, it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire...... Of course you can't go, this Ximen Pharmacy, it's still no problem to go.
Ximen Pharmacy is located in the most prosperous area of Yanggu West Street, the wide bluestone street in front of the door can accommodate six horse-drawn carriages side by side, Ximen Pharmacy is very magnificent, it is a two-storey grand attic, the wooden doors and windows emit a bronze luster, and the left window hangs a large gold-lettered signboard "Ximen Crude Medicine Shop" with a height of one person. There was an endless stream of people in front of the door, and they all looked envious when they looked at this signboard.
Wu Zhi and Long Wu slowly walked into the pharmacy, there were not many people buying medicine, the shopkeeper behind the counter saw Long Wu come in, his face changed slightly, and he whispered something to the guy next to him, and the guy turned around and ran out. The shopkeeper ran out of the counter, came to Long Wu, and said with a smile: "What kind of medicinal herbs does the official want to buy?" Long Wu felt useful for a while, and he didn't think that he would also be called an "official" one day, you must know that although everyone was afraid of him before, they just called him Brother Long. Unexpectedly, after the trouble in the past few days, even the shopkeeper of the dignified Ximen Pharmacy has to respectfully call himself an official. Although he was happy in his heart, he could still distinguish the priorities and peek at Wu Zhi's eyes. Wu Zhi just looked at the direction where the guy ran just now and sneered, and he didn't say anything.
Long Wu didn't have Wu Zhi's orders, so he didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he said: "I'll accompany Brother Wu to go shopping, and the shopkeeper will be busy first." ”
The shopkeeper naturally also recognized Wu Zhi, at first he just thought that Wu Da was also coming to buy medicine, but he just happened to collide with Long Wu, and he was already suspicious when he saw Long Wu go to see Wu Zhi, and he was already suspicious in his heart. Now when he heard Long Wu's words, the second monk was even more confused, and he couldn't figure out what Long Wu meant, so he had to politely say a few words and returned to the medicine cabinet, but his eyes still glanced at the two of them from time to time.
Wu Zhi waited for a long time, only to see the guy slowly walked back, his face was very ugly, obviously he was scolded, Wu Zhi's heart was bright, Ximen Qing must have thought that Long Wu didn't dare to make trouble in his pharmacy, and felt that the little guy was making a fuss, so he scolded him back.
Wu Zhi sneered, and pulled out a bull-eared knife from his waist, just as the old shopkeeper looked at it, and couldn't help but exclaim. Long Wu couldn't figure out the situation, and recited the Buddha in his heart, Brother Wu didn't want to kill people here. In the horrified eyes of everyone, Wu Zhi stabbed into the thigh fiercely, and blood suddenly spurted out. Wu Zhi didn't frown, and slowly walked to the chair at the window for the guests to rest and sat down.
Everyone next to him ran out in exclamation, the old shopkeeper wanted to come over and ask, and when he saw Wu Zhi's cold gaze, his heart was cold, and he stopped, and those little guys opened their eyes wide, and they didn't dare to gasp for breath. Long Wu looked at Wu Zhi's eyes with more awe.
Wu Zhi closed his eyes slightly, and smiled secretly in his heart, although he thought that he had also stuck a knife in his friend's ribs in the gang at the beginning, but there was no way to do it. Now I just used a little trick, using the method of making movies in my time, and several layers of pig skin were thickly tied on the legs, and the pig skin was filled with silk paper to absorb pig blood.
After a while, he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps outside, Wu Zhi slowly opened his eyes, and saw a white-faced man in fresh clothes walking in with a few small guys in a hurry. Wu Zhi knew that this was Ximen Qing. Ximenqing looked him up and down, his face was gloomy, and he walked over and said, "Wuda, what are you doing?" Smash my Ximenqing's signboard? ”
Ximenqing has to have more fires these days, a while ago I accidentally saw a fairy-like beauty, and after inquiring, I knew that it was the wife of the most incapable wood Wuda in Yanggu, and immediately became lustful, and bought off the neighbor of the Wu family, Wang Po, these days to send Wang Po that money added up to a few times, but I didn't smell one, asked Wang Po just told herself to wait patiently, today I was holding the newly bought maid and making love, seeing that I was about to succeed, I was disturbed by the guy in the pharmacy, saying that Long Wu went to his own store, The shopkeeper was afraid that he would make trouble, so he asked himself to take a look, and he beat the guy away with a slap in the face. This old shopkeeper is old and confused, Long Wu and they are very fierce in the past few days, but they don't dare to make trouble in their own land even if they borrow a few of their guts. If I, the senior official of Ximen, were afraid of these splashes, wouldn't it be a joke.
After beating the guy away, before he could catch his breath, someone came to report that Wuda stabbed him in the thigh in his shop, scaring the customers away, and no one dared to go in again. Really crazy, Wuda? Is the most cowardly Wuda in Yanggu County? Wuhan University who is bullied by a few splashes every day? Just like that, the number one person will stab a knife into his thigh and eyelids without blinking? Is the world all crazy?
Hurriedly came to the pharmacy, and when I saw Wuda's short figure, I felt a burst of disdain in my heart, and I really put a flower on the cow dung.
Wu Zhi didn't reply to his words, and said to Long Wu slowly: "Long Wu, go outside to buy a bag of sugar, big brother, I need to replenish my blood." Long Wu hurriedly agreed.
Ximenqing only noticed the trembling knife on Wu's thigh at this time, and his heart also sudden, the Song people were content with pleasure, and they were no longer as brave and ruthless as the people in the Han and Tang dynasties. Everybody knows the difference. Looking at Wuda's calm expression, Ximen Qing was also secretly frightened. However, Ximenqing has seen some of the world after all, and gritted his teeth and said secretly: "I see how long you can last." He stopped talking, and sat down beside him.
After a while, Long Wu ran to buy the candy back, and Wu Zhi slowly ate the candy and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
The two of them sat down until the time of the lamp, Wu Zhi slowly stood up, and said to Long Wu, who was napping against the wall next to him: "Let's go, I'll go back first today." Long Wu hurriedly came over to support Wu Zhi, Wu Zhi waved his hand, and slowly walked out of the Ximen Pharmacy with a limp. Ximen Qing snorted coldly and stood up as well. When he turned around, he found that the shopkeeper and the guy were staring blankly at Wuda's short and faltering back, and their eyes were full of awe. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seemed that he was defeated today.
Wu Zhi walked out of the Ximen Pharmacy and said to Long Wu: "You don't need to come tomorrow, I think they also know my intention, you go tomorrow to help me find a courtyard, hire a few people, and move in with your sister-in-law after a few ****." ”
Long Wu was silent for a moment, and hesitated: "Big brother, don't come tomorrow, let's just not take their money, it's enough for expenses." Behold the elder brother suffering such sins, so that the brothers may know this ......"
Wu Zhi listened to him take the martial arts word in front of his eldest brother, and listened to his earnestness, his heart was also warm, but his face still said lightly: "There are some things you don't understand, you don't need to ask more, just do what I say." Long Wu had no choice but to agree.
