Chapter 013: Walking on the road to Jiangxia meets the ruffian
Xiang Cheng saw that it was this person, and Xiang Cheng was happy.
"Brother Xiang Cheng, what are you happy about? This man must have had evil intentions when he got into our carriage, so he quickly captured him and killed him. Xiang Ji said impatiently.
You didn't listen to what I told you during the day, did you?
"Brother, what do you call it? And how did you get into our car? Xiang Cheng tried his best to show a kind expression.
It's a pity that Sun Gouyu next to him was holding a wooden stick for parking in his hand, with a fierce expression and a little timidity.
Therefore, Zhang Ning was frightened at this time.
A scream of "ah" startled everyone in the car. When he reacted, Zhang Ning also blushed and was a little embarrassed.
"Under Zhang Ning. I'm going back to Jizhou, I want to get there early, but I have no choice but to get into your carriage. Zhang Ning lowered his head as he spoke, saw that everyone did not react, and quietly raised his head and glanced at Xiang Cheng.
As a result, before Xiang Cheng could open his mouth, Sun Gouyu's youngest son next to him spoke: "Uncle, why are you calling this sister brother?" ”
Embarrassing... The embarrassment of a car...
Sun Gou's mother-in-law pulled her little son and covered her mouth, and Xiang Cheng could only respond with an embarrassed smile instead of a polite smile.
"Miss Zhang, you can stay in the car first, and then rest tomorrow when you get to the place." Xiang Cheng smiled and then pulled Sun Gouyu and went out of the car again.
Blowing in the summer night breeze, the carriage jolted along the path. When it was getting dark, I could finally see a small village.
Xiang Cheng was already so sleepy that his eyes were fighting, and the car was temporarily driven by Sun Gou. The dry food prepared in the car can only be eaten for half a month, although there is no hurry to buy it now, but it is also good to go into the village to change some hot food.
"Drive!" With Sun Gou waving the reins, the carriage headed straight for the village.
When they arrived at the village, the villagers were cautious when they looked at the foreign carriage. After Sun Gouyu expressed his intentions, the villagers were relieved.
However, this is not the time to eat, and the families will only start to cook when the villagers return from working in the fields at 10 o'clock in the morning.
It's just enough time for Xiang Cheng to sleep for a while, although playing with the carriage is very interesting for modern people, but you can't play all night long, right?
found a village household, and Sun Gou left a few five-baht coins. The villagers helped clean up the room, and a few people rested here for the time being.
Fortunately, it is far away from Gangneung, and even if the wanted warrant is here, it is estimated that it will take one to two days to get here. The efficiency of the imperial court in the late Eastern Han Dynasty can only be said to be really low. After all, there are no mobile phones and computers now.
Xiang Cheng fell asleep when he entered the house, after all, it was really tiring to drive at night. Driving like this, Xiang Cheng didn't know if he was tired driving.
slept sweetly, and in the shouting of Sun Gou, Xiang Cheng opened his eyes that had not yet woken up.
"I've got money with your parents, how can you still ask for it?" Sun Gouyu had anger in his mouth.
When Xiang Cheng heard this, he was afraid that he was arguing with someone, right?
"You and my parents belong to you and my parents, this house is mine now, you want to live without paying, you want to be happy." A sharp and mean male voice sounded after Sun Gouyu finished speaking.
Sun Gouyu was very angry, after all, when he went out, Ma Yuanyi was afraid that Xiang Cheng would not want to collect money, so he gave Sun Gouyu all the coils on the road.
Now this man wants a whole amount of money, not extortion or anything.
Xiang Chengzheng wanted to get up and go outside the door to take a look, but another voice came.
"You, we've already given money, and you're really shameless to come again?"
The voice that spoke was Zhang Ning.
Xiang Cheng was happy when he heard this voice. I didn't expect this girl to have such a strong personality, and she scolded if she didn't agree with her.
"Stinky boy, you dare to scold me!"
"Ahh
The voice of the shouting was the snarky male voice, but the scream was made by Sun Gouyu.
As soon as this voice sounded, Xiang Cheng lost his sleepiness for a moment, jumped up from the bed with a "rub" sound, and strode out of the door.
Sun Gouyu had been knocked to the ground, holding his head with his hands, allowing the man to kick and beat. Zhang Ning was pulling the man beside him, but the man pushed hard, and Zhang Ning was also pushed to the ground.
"Why did you hurt my brother!" Xiang Yuan was woken up, his voice was low and hoarse, coupled with angry emotions, he shouted like a leopard roaring and a tiger roaring in this life.
The man didn't see Xiang Cheng come out, but he was startled when he heard the voice. Turn around again, good guys! I don't know what this man grew up eating! It's so burly!
"I'm asking you!" Seeing that the man who beat people didn't answer, Xiang Cheng asked again.
When the man saw Xiang Cheng like this, he dared to answer, so he had to stop and stand aside.
Xiang Cheng was furious.
Because not answering other people's questions is a very rude thing in modern times. Xiang Cheng only considered this, but did not take into account that he was now in the late Han Dynasty, and some people really didn't dare to answer when they looked at his form.
"Hmm" The two-step achievement ran in front of the man, his arms were slightly forced, and he lifted the man up by the collar.
"A good man spares his life, a good man spares his life!" The man was startled, and almost lost control of his bladder.
"Say! Why hurt my brother! Xiang Cheng glared angrily and asked again.
"For the sake of some money, the villain will never dare again! Don't dare anymore! The man hurriedly said.
Sun Gouyu was helped up by Zhang Ning, but there was nothing wrong with the person, it was nothing more than a little dirt on his clothes: "Forget it, brother, this person is nothing more than a splash in the village." We're going to have to hurry. ”
Seeing that Sun Gou was fine, Xiang Cheng's anger decreased slightly. With a throw of his hands, he threw the man a foot away, and turned two heels on the ground.
No longer bothered with the man, Xiang Cheng and the three of them went back to the courtyard.
Now it's almost noon, and I borrowed this stove and started cooking. The cooked meals are still clear soup and little water.
Xiang Cheng drank two bowls, turned around and said to the woman who was eating at the small table, "Sister-in-law, you can have more rice for the next meal." The brother still has some gold and silver, and the food on the way is no problem. ”
Sun Gouyu's mother-in-law nodded slightly and agreed.
After the meal, the group continued their journey. There was also talk and laughter in the carriage, and there were naturally two old men outside the carriage.
Under the big tree at the entrance of the village, a person gritted his teeth, it was the man who asked Sun Gou for money at noon. Seeing the direction in which Xiang Cheng and the others left, he turned around and went back to the village. There was a cowshed behind his house, but who would have thought that there were a group of yellow horses tied to this cowshed.
Horses are not good horses, but it is unusual to be able to raise them at home. The man untied the reins and turned on his horse. chased in the direction where Xiang Cheng and the others left, but just away from the entrance of the village, he took another road.
If there is an airplane in this world, looking down from the sky, these two paths will end up in Jiangxia.
Day and night marched, and after two nights and three days. When the sun had just risen, Xiang Cheng and his party finally walked to Jiangxia City. After a few nights of night travel and a day's rush, Xiang Cheng is now sleepy and dirty.
I really want to take a bath!
Jiangxia is actually a county in Jingzhou, and "Jiangxia City" is only the county seat of Jiangxia County in Jingzhou. Jiangxia County also contains 14 counties: Xiling, Yixian, Exian, Qichun, Xiapheasant, Shaxian, Anlu, Nanxinshi, Yundu, Jingling, Xiyang, Yuguo, Yanxian, and Pingchun.
As a county town, Jiangxia was very prosperous, but Xiang Cheng did not dare to enter. The reason for this is that he is afraid that the wanted notice of Jiangling City has arrived in Jiangxia.
After all, it's been four days now.
The carriage stopped at the edge of the woods, four miles from the edge of the city.
The matter of entering the city to buy was carte blanche to Sun Gouyu, but Zhang Ning was clamoring to go, and in desperation, Sun Gouyu took Zhang Ning and the two to Jiangxia City together.
As expected, there were several notices posted on the gates of Jiangxia City.
Sun Gou was illiterate, but Zhang Ning could understand it, and it was nothing more than writing Xiang Cheng's crimes.
But the funniest thing is the description of Xiang Cheng, which reads, "This person, with a face like carbon ink, looks like a tiger and a bear, eyes like a hungry wolf, and a mouth like a basin of blood." ”
Seeing this, Zhang Ning laughed. Sun Gou was puzzled, but when he asked, he shook his head again and again. said softly to Zhang Ning: "Although my brother was born burly, he has a handsome face, how can this official government slander like this?" ”
Zhang Ning also agreed, but he didn't elaborate, and made a silent gesture at Sun Gouyu.
Because it was their turn to check.
The officers and soldiers guarding the gate looked at the two men, compared the portraits, and let them go. After all, Xiang Cheng could tell at a glance when he stood next to others.
At this time, I don't know if this wanted notice runs to Liangzhou, a certain classmate surnamed "Lu" will be troubled.
Going in and out of the city, the two were not bothered by anything. I bought some dry food and miscellaneous vegetables, and soon returned to the woods where the carriage was kept.
With Xiang Cheng's assistance, Sun Gouyu's mother-in-law had already set up a simple stove. After the two of them returned, they could start the stove and cook.
The meal was finally enough to eat, although the taste was still average. After all, the condiments of the late Han Dynasty... Hey, don't mention it.
After eating, a few people were going to take a break here and wait until it was dark and crossed the river.
Xiang Cheng finally found time to get some tail hair off the horse's tail. After all, Xiang Cheng has been very uncomfortable when he gets up in the morning and doesn't brush his teeth for more than ten days......
According to the memories of his previous life, Xiang Cheng found a bamboo piece and split it into shape. Some fine holes are chiseled out on the top, and the ponytail hairs are put in tufts and knotted and installed. Then trim it neatly with a knife.
A simple toothbrush does just that. After getting a little salt, Xiang Cheng began his first teeth cleaning after the crossing. It attracted Xiang Ji to marvel again and again, and he couldn't stop being amazed.
It was getting dark, and Sun Gou went to contact a boatman in the evening, and after giving the deposit, the boatman also nodded in agreement.
Xiang Cheng, Sun Gouyu, and Zhang Ning came to the river to take a look, this boat is also interesting! Seven or eight large boats stood in the water.
There were two people standing on the first boat, and Xiang Cheng saw through the moonlight that one of them was the rogue a few days ago.
The other was holding a large flag.
The two "Lishu" characters on the flag are written neatly.
It is "Jinfan".
