Chapter 008: Tang Zhou's heart is ruthless and vicious
Lunch was eaten at Sun Gouyu's house. One night of porridge, two dishes of side dishes. The side dishes are pickled, and the pickles of this era are really difficult to swallow. After a mouthful of vegetables, Xiang Cheng wanted to drink a big mouthful of porridge. However, this porridge is not so much porridge as clear soup, and a bowl of beige-white soup with a few vegetable leaves floating on it, which is the ration of most people in this era.
Those who can eat this porridge can be regarded as people who can live. More people can't even eat this kind of porridge and pickles, which is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
This meal is not only unaccustomed to Xiang Cheng, but also Ma Yuanyi.
However, during the dinner, the two talked happily with each other, and when they left, they pulled Xiang Cheng out together, and took Xiang Cheng to see the world.
Xiang Cheng thought about it, this is okay! As soon as he crossed over, he could go to the "world", and Ma Yuanyi did not make friends in vain.
Xiang Cheng was scolding while laughing.
But Xiang Cheng is happy.
Xiang Chengcheng smiled in his heart and secretly rubbed his door with Ma Yuanyi.
Now it was noon, and the two swaggered into Gangneung City. Xiang Ji is still wondering, come so early? Shouldn't wait until the evening?
Passing through the bustling crowd, Ma Yuanyi came to the door of an inconspicuous small shop. There was a little second standing at the door who was greeting Ma Yuanyi familiarly, and Xiang Chengcheng followed Ma Yuanyi into the small shop.
The store is not big, and there is not even a table. On the contrary, the counter is not small, and there are more than a dozen wine jars behind the counter.
"Shopkeeper! Guests have arrived! ”
The voice of the shopkeeper is full of energy, and the tail note of the word "to" is long. Not only is it harsh, but it is also a little nice.
"Here we go."
As soon as the door of the back hall opened, one person lifted the curtain and wiped his hands on his apron. This man is more like a buddy than a shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper has a short stature, two eyebrows on his big eyes, an extremely long upper lip beard that hangs down the corners of his mouth on his chest, and no hair on his chin.
In short, he looks like a thief and doesn't look like a good person.
As a result, Ma Yuanyi hugged his fists affectionately, and glanced at Xiang Cheng at the end. Xiang Cheng had to hug his fist at the shopkeeper with Ma Yuanyi.
In the final analysis, Ma Yuanyi is not a good person. Sympathetic to each other, sympathetic to each other.
The shopkeeper and Ma Yuanyi seem to be acquaintances. Without waiting for Ma Yuanyi to express his intentions, he first pulled a bench and beckoned the two to sit down, and then rushed into the back hall to make a fuss.
When he came out again, he was holding a lotus leaf in his hand, and there were two taels of cured beef in the leaf.
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Wang." Ma Yuanyi hugged his fist again, pinched a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth. Looking at the expression, this meat seems to be like the delicacies of the mountains and the sea.
Xiang Cheng also pinched a piece and put it in his mouth. After chewing, not to mention, the taste of this beef is really delicious. After swallowing, Xiang Cheng grabbed another slice and ate it.
"Brother, what does it taste like?" Ma Yuanyi looked at Xiang Cheng's anxious appearance and asked with a smile.
Xiang Cheng still had beef stuffed in his mouth, and replied inarticulately: "This taste is really superb." Truly superb! ”
"Shopkeeper, I'm making two bowls of rice wine with my brother." Ma Yuanyi smiled and greeted the shopkeeper again.
The sake is rice wine, and although the quality of the sake is slightly cloudy, the aroma of the rice is more mellow than that of today's distilled spirits.
Xiang Cheng didn't drink alcohol before, but the smell of this wine is really gluttonous. Gu Dong killed most of the bowl with a mouthful of Xiang Cheng, wiped his mouth with his cuffs and shouted: "Good wine!" ”
Even eating and drinking Xiang Cheng can be regarded as having enough addiction today, and Ma Yuanyi is also watching Xiang Cheng eat and drink happily next to him.
I was full of wine and food, and it didn't take long.
Ma Yuanyi patted his clothes, and took out a hanging copper coin from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper hurriedly took it, and shouted at the back hall: "Cut another half catty of beef!" ”
"Okay!"
Although Xiang Cheng came through time, he has a small encyclopedia of the Qin Dynasty in his body.
The Han attacked the Qin system, whether it was currency or weights and measures. The Han Dynasty was a dynasty in which gold and five-baht coins circulated together.
Everyone knows that gold is hard currency, and 10,000 coins in the Han Dynasty is about equal to one catty of gold, and one catty in the Han Dynasty is about 250 grams now.
The string of five-baht coins that Ma Yuanyi took out just now was about seventy or eighty pieces, which is equivalent to about two grams of gold. Xiang Cheng remembered that when he didn't cross over, the price of gold was about 300 yuan.
This meal, a pound of beef, a few bowls of rice wine. Just over 300 yuan!
If it weren't for Xiang Cheng's math, he would have been dizzy, but this meal is too expensive.
Xiang Cheng's last unexpected harvest of gold weighed only seven or eight catties... This can be spent in less than a year just for eating and drinking, not to mention that Xiang Cheng has not eaten enough.
"The shopkeeper also wrapped me a pound of beef."
Xiang Cheng took out a piece of broken gold from the bag on his waist and handed it to the shopkeeper, who gently swiped it and shouted at the back hall: "Cut three catties of beef!" ”
Xiang Cheng has liver pain...... Mader, it turns out that there is no change! Anyway, there are a lot of dogs left in the family. In the past few days, it is time to pay someone for eating and drinking.
"Brother, who are you packing this for?" Ma Yuanyi asked curiously.
Xiang Cheng packed up the lotus leaf beef handed over by the shopkeeper and replied, "Bring it to the big brother and the family to try it." ”
Hearing Xiang Cheng say this, Ma Yuanyi shook his head noncommittally. After all, he can't look down on Sun Gouyu.
The two of them packed up the packed beef and walked quickly towards the city gate, and in a few moments, the gate of Gangneung City would be closed.
Ma Xianshi's house is at the entrance of the village, and when Xiang Cheng and Ma Yuanyi came back, they naturally went to Ma Xianshi's house first.
Ma Xianshi's house is naturally not as lively as it was a few days ago, now only Tang Zhou is lying on the bed, Ma Xianshi has just finished dressing him with medicine, Tang Zhou has a loveless expression on his face.
"Immortal Master, do you think Brother Yuanyi can clean up that thief?" Tang Zhou endured the sharp pain in his crotch and asked at Ma Xianshi.
Immortal Master Ma packed up the medicine box and sighed: "Hey, it's not like you haven't seen that little thief, who looks like a tiger and a leopard and has a face like a wolf. I didn't want Yuanyi to seek revenge again, but what ...... Hey, that's it. After Ma Xianshi finished speaking, he came out of the house with the medicine box, and by chance he met the two people who entered the hospital.
Seeing his nephew Ma Yuanyi and Xiang Cheng walking side by side, Ma Xianshi thought he was dazzled.
What the hell is going on? Aren't you going to clean up this thief? Why are you so affectionate now? Isn't it because I haven't woken up yet?
Ma Xianshi rubbed his eyes vigorously, but heard Ma Yuanyi say happily: "Uncle, come and taste the food I brought you." ”
"You... You... You... You guys... This is? Ma Xianshi still didn't believe what he saw in his eyes, and asked while pointing at Xiang Cheng and Ma Yuanyi.
"Uncle, don't you know, Brother Xiang Cheng is the queen of the overlord. He is very respectful of the great sages and good teachers. Ma Yuanyi whispered in Ma Xianshi's ear.
The eyes of the Immortal Master Ma who said this sentence lit up.
Seconds! If this person can join my Taiping Sect, a big deal can be decided! Although I don't know where this confidence comes from, that's what Immortal Master Ma thinks.
"Immortal Master, but Brother Yuanyi is back?" Tang Zhou, who was in the room, heard the voice and asked excitedly.
After all, Ma Yuanyi came back safely, and the thief was bound to be ambushed.
Tang Zhou is happy! Joy!
"Brother Tang Zhou, I'm back and I've brought you some food." Ma Yuanyi walked into the room and saw Tang Zhou struggling to get up and hurriedly supported him: "Brother Tang Zhou, lie down and recuperate with peace of mind." Let's have a piece. ”
Tang Zhou chewed the beef brought back by Ma Yuanyi in his mouth, and he was indescribably happy. As a result, before the joy could be digested, a majestic figure also walked into the hut.
Tang Zhou's eyes widened, and he forgot to chew the beef in his mouth.
There was an atmosphere called embarrassment in the air......
"You little thief! Why come here! A moment later, Tang Zhou screamed and jumped up from the bed. The crotch is twitched, that sour! Tang Zhou's tears and snot spurted out.
"I went to Jiangling City with Brother Yuanyi, why haven't you left yet? Can't walk? Xiang Cheng sneered at the corner of his mouth and sneered at Tang Zhou.
Ma Yuanyi is now caught in the middle and is in a dilemma, on one side is the descendant of the overlord, and on the other hand is the disciple of the great sage and good teacher. As a result, the two of them didn't seem to like each other, which made Ma Yuanyi embarrassed: "Brother Tang Zhou, you lie down first, and Brother Rong will tell you slowly." ”
"I'm fine! Don't worry about it! Why are you with this thief? Tang Zhou roared at Ma Yuanyi.
Ma Yuanyi is usually very kind to this person, after all, Tang Zhou is also a disciple of Zhang Jiao. Although this person's personality is a bit perverse, he usually respects himself, what's wrong with today?
Ma Yuanyi's expression froze in mid-air, neither laughing nor angry, it was really awkward.
As a result, without waiting for Ma Yuanyi to speak, Xiang Chengcheng continued: "Yo, it's okay?" It's okay to take two steps. Come and follow me two steps. Xiang Chengcheng took a step back and forth in the house.
"Brother Xiang Cheng!" Ma Yuanyi hurriedly shouted.
Who knew that this sentence made Tang Zhou even more angry: "Okay, good!" What a Xiang Cheng brother! Ma Yuanyi, you wait for me! ”
After saying that, Tang Zhou's eyes darkened, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell straight on the bed.
"Uncle! Come on! Brother Tang Zhou vomited blood! Ma Yuanyi was shocked and hurriedly beckoned Master Ma Xianshi to come in and take a look.
After taking the pulse, it is a rush to attack the heart.
Ma Xianshi also sighed: "Yuanyi, you take Brother Xiang out first, Xiao Tang has me to take care of it." You're... Ay. ”
Ma Yuanyi had no choice but to follow Xiang Cheng to Sun Gou's house first.
"Brother, sister-in-law. Look what I've brought you. Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Xiang Cheng had forgotten the unhappiness just now.
Tang Zhou is just a small ear, so there is nothing to worry about.
However, on the way, Xiang Cheng still reminded Ma Yuanyi, but Ma Yuanyi didn't think so, after all, Tang Zhou was a disciple of a great sage and good teacher, who would do this kind of thing of killing his father and killing his brother.
Xiang Cheng pursed his lips noncommittally, that is because you don't know a person named "Lu Bu".
"Uncle, ride a big horse!" Hearing Xiang Cheng's voice, the first to run out was Sun Gouyu's youngest son. Pulling Xiang Cheng's trouser leg is about to play. Xiang Cheng smiled and picked up the kid, and shared the beef with Sun Gou's remaining family.
That night, Ma Yuanyi and Xiang Cheng squeezed into the small courtyard and fell asleep.
The next day, early in the morning.
Sun Gouyu, who was still preparing to go to the field to farm, woke up the two. After some conversation, Xiang Cheng felt that the toothbrush had to be put on the agenda quickly.
It's too sad to stand it.
The day has passed, and Tang Zhou's emotions must be able to soothe a little.
Ma Yuanyi rejected Xiang Cheng's kindness to go and see it together, and went back to Ma Xianshi's house alone.
"Ahh Tang Zhou!! I, Ma Yuanyi, don't share the sky with you!! ”
At the house of Ma Xianshi at the entrance of the village, a loud roar resounded through the village.
