Chapter Twenty-Nine: Leisure and Elegance

"In that case, no one else has found out?"

Wang Qun said: "The Qin family is usually very careful, which is the main reason why I brought you here this time, there are not many people in the Qin family and the outside world, the Zhen family is one of them, everyone who can trade with the Qin family has been screened by the Qin family, even if they know about the Qin family, they will not say it......."

"I see!"

From the perspective of the Qin family, Zhen Qian can understand the thoughts of the Qin family, it looks good to hide in the deep mountains and old forests and not communicate with the outside world, but in fact, all aspects have been restricted, a day, a month, a year is okay, it is good to say, it will be degraded in decades or hundreds of years, and the Qin family in Baima Village is a way to hide from the world, which is not regarded as a good way in the Tang Dynasty, where information is not developed.

And these so-called mountain people are also regarded as savages in the county, as long as they hand over a little mountain goods, no one in the county will take care of them at all, and Wang Qun also happened to take advantage of this convenience to buy some mountain goods and furs from the Qin family, and the Qin family exchanged them for some urgently needed daily necessities, both sides were profitable, and naturally no one went to break it.

This time, Wang Qun was going to place the winery in the Qin family, and he had the same idea, but the Qin family was worried that his current situation would be exposed, so he hoped that he could come forward to discuss the matter, and he also took this opportunity to see if Zhen Qian was reliable.

After listening to Wang Qun's explanation, Zhen Qian already understood what he was going to do, which was about the same as a blind date, before getting married, understand the temperament and character of the other party, so as not to make a big move because of the discord between the two parties, get to know each other before cooperating, meeting and communicating is the best way, Zhen Qian, who wanted to hide behind the scenes, had to show his face.

"Da Lang, you should pay more attention when you arrive at the Qin family, the Qin family has lived in the mountains for a long time, rarely interacts with the outside world, has a different temperament and temperament from ordinary people, and often likes to fight each other when they disagree, which may be related to their living habits in the mountains. But don't worry, Da Lang, the Qin family has people who specialize in receiving us, and the Qin family who comes into contact with us still knows how to deal with people, but there can be no contempt in the words, otherwise it is easy to arouse their disgust! ”

"Hmm!" I don't need to be polite to Wang Qun, but if I am polite, I seem a little distant.

The convoy had been traveling for about an hour, when suddenly the convoy stopped, "Is it so soon?" ”

"It's still early?" Wang Qun jumped down from the carriage, the bumps along the way made Zhen Qian want to vomit, and hurriedly got off the car to rest, "We are about to enter the mountain, continue to walk a short distance to Baima Pass, we will go northwest here, and we will walk three or four miles of mountain roads!" ”

"There are still three or four miles of mountain roads, isn't that close?" Zhen Qian said disapprovingly.

Seeing that Zhen Qian didn't pay attention to his words at all, Wang Qun hurriedly added: "Don't underestimate the last few miles of the road, you will see later, this is the most difficult section of our trip, this road is usually rarely walked, the road is not only narrow, but also the cliffs on both sides, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss, so we have to get off the car and walk to Baima Village."

Zhen Qian nodded, when I traveled before, I hadn't seen dangerous roads, and there were no highways in the Tang Dynasty, and most of the roads were stepped out by people with their feet, which I had already experienced.

The road connecting Baima Pass is quite spacious, and this road passes through the Taihang Mountains to connect to Hedong Road (Shanxi in later generations), and many business travelers who are in a hurry will choose this road. Listening to Wang Qun, this mountain road through Hedong and Hebei is basically not many people willing to go, not only is it too dangerous, but also the road is unmaintained all year round, many places have collapsed, and even some lonely business travelers are often robbed, so there are fewer and fewer people walking, and most people have turned to Jingcheng Road.

Facts proved that Zhen Qian still ignored Wang Qun's reminder, and the convoy was soon on the road, passing between the two mountains, and all the people in the carriage got off the carriage and began to walk, even the groom who was driving the carriage was also moving cautiously in front.

The mountain road on both sides is getting narrower and narrower, and finally the width of the mountain road can only accommodate a horse-drawn carriage to accompany it, one side is a cliff thousands of feet high, and the other side is a deep ravine that cannot be seen at a glance, the fog rises from the deep valley, and it looks unusually mysterious under the sunlight, the eyes are full of trees and vines, as if surrounded by green, and the quiet mountain road can only hear the "squeak" wheel friction sound, echoing in the deep mountain stream.

Xiaozhu and Xiaomei's bodies were clinging to the cliff, not daring to stretch out their heads to look at the bottomless valley, and occasionally they could hear the sound of flowing water and rocks crashing from under the valley, which was what Wang Qun called Tuoshui.

"Watch the mountain road under your feet!" Wang Qun shouted loudly and reminded: "Pay attention to the falling rocks overhead, and try not to get close to the cliff ......."

"Lang Jun, I'm afraid!" Xiaozhu and Xiaomei held hands in fright, with fear in their eyes.

"What are you afraid of!" Ju Niang on the side jumped out, stood on the cliff on the side of the road curiously, stretched out her head to look at the bottom of the valley, and the iron pillar with a simple face took Ju Niang's hand, for fear that she would slip and fall under her feet: "What a beautiful scenery, come and see!" ”

"Look at your head!"

Zhen Qian glared at Ju Niang angrily, the two looked at each other, and Ju Niang even sneered: "Are you still a man?" Timid so small! ”

"A gentleman has something to do and something to do, I won't use my life to be strong, that's unwise!"

Zhen Qian didn't want to take care of this crazy woman at all, so he walked beside Xiaozhu and Xiaomei and comforted: "Don't be afraid, as long as you don't look at it, don't think about it in your heart, there are so many people protecting the two of you, what are you worried about?" ”

"Lang Jun, I'm really scared!"

"Take me by the hand, you won't be afraid, I'll tell you a story. Once upon a time there was a mountain, there was a temple in the mountain, there was an old monk and a little monk in the temple, the little monk asked the old monk, why do there are men in this world, why do women have women, women are very troublesome, and things are so complicated, the world is also very distressed, always complaining about women, if there are only men in the world, wouldn't there be a lot of things missing? ”

Zhen Qian's words also attracted Ju Niang, and Liu Mei raised his eyebrows and retorted: "If there is only one kind of person left in this world, it should also be a woman, you men know how to fight and kill all day long, without us women, who will give you children ......."

"It seems to make sense!" Zhen Qian didn't refute this time.

Ju Niang didn't expect Zhen Qian to agree with her statement, and she was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to continue, Xiaozhu and Xiaomei on the side hurriedly said: "Lang Jun, how did the old monk answer?" ”

Zhen Qian spread his hands and said: "I don't know, the old monk didn't say anything, just looked at the little monk quietly, sighed...... let the little monk return to vulgarity."

"You're fooling!" Xiaozhu knew that Zhen Qian was playing tricks on himself again, "Then how will Lang Jun answer?" ”

"If you don't enter the world, you don't know what it means to return to the world, enter the world and be born, in fact, everyone has a different answer in their hearts, so why ask others?" Zhen Qian pretended to be profound.

Ju Niang just couldn't get used to Zhen Qian's pretending, and snorted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense, you must not think like this in your heart!" ”

"What do I think in my heart, how do you know, are you me?"

"You ......", Ju Niang can argue with Zhen Qian, "We have seen high and low in our fists and feet, and now no one stands up to help you!" ”

"Okay!" Zhen Qian agreed: "But we can't fight, it's better to change it to a literary fight!" ”

Ju Niang didn't understand what Zhen Qian's martial arts and wendou meant, "Tell me, what is martial arts and what is Wendou?" ”

"Martial arts is naturally a combination of fists and feet, so it will inevitably hurt each other's harmony, your mother asked me to teach you Tai Chi, how can I say that you are also half a master, how can the master and the apprentice do it, isn't this a big bully?"

Before Zhen Qian's words were finished, Ju Niang clenched her fists and waved in front of Zhen Qian: "You say another half a sentence, be careful that I hit you!" ”

"I just said that men know how to fight and kill, and now who is fighting and killing", Zhen Qian looked at Ju Niang with a smile and said: "I don't have the same knowledge as you, this literary fight is that both sides don't use fists and feet, each has a way to knock each other down, if the other party can crack it, it will be considered a win, and vice versa!" ”

"Then I'm not going to lose", Ju Niang is not stupid, she can still be sure to defeat Zhen Qian with her fists and feet, but I am afraid that she can't even see hope in words, so she immediately vetoed it.

"You don't have to refute so quickly, it's not who there are more people on the battlefield, nor who has more strength, but who can use the opportunity in their favor more flexibly, only reckless people will fight and kill all day long, are you right?"

Of course Ju Niang won't admit it, she snorted in her nose, turned her head to look at the smiling iron pillar behind her, and kicked it angrily, "Da Lang has bullied your lady's head, and you don't know how to help me!" ”

Wang Tiezhu scratched his head and shook his head like a rattle, "Da Lang is the little master, everything he says is right!" ”

"Then you mean to say I'm wrong", Ju Niang said nonsense.

Wang Tiezhu still smiled: "What the lady said is also right!" ”

"I'm! useless things, I know that I ...... help outsiders bully me", Ju Niang stomped her feet and ran to the front to complain to Wang Qun.

Without the noise of Ju Niang, Zhen Qian's ears were much quieter, and he talked and laughed with the two little Nizi, but he also forgot the difficulty of the mountain road, but after walking for a long time, he felt a little pain under his feet, which was the result of not exercising often, and the two Xiao Nizi were even more unbearable, basically walking for a while, and it didn't take long for the three of them to gradually fall to the back of the team.

"Or I'll be yours!"

"No, Lang Jun's body has just recovered, how can you let Lang Jun carry a slave?" Having said that, but the two little girls felt like they had eaten honey, and the owner of any family had said that he was carrying a maidservant, and his jaw dropped when he said it.
