Chapter 421: Return to the Team (1)
The lively street is very short, and after walking for a while, it comes to an end, and after the last gambling stall, the red lanterns, the flow of people, and the noisy voices disappear at once, and only by the dim sky and the looming candle flame can you barely see the road clearly.
The dilapidated and dark houses, the streets with few no people, are lifeless in the night, and the prosperity is really pure, this is the true face of Liangtian Tunbao.
The boy stopped, turned half of his body and tried to turn around, but when he looked up at the sky, he seemed to think that it was still early, so he changed his mind and continued on his way.
Seeing this, Xu Jiu behind him quietly disappeared into the twilight, while Ma Erniuwu continued to mix with the crowd, and when the young man turned the street, he followed unhurriedly.
The empty street looks terrible, but the boy even walked a few streets, all safe, and did not encounter any trouble, and he felt that it was not as terrible as he imagined, and he was a lot more courageous, but accidents often come when you are inadvertent, or when the spring breeze is proud, and the young man's encounter is just like this.
"Bang!" As soon as he turned a street corner, a figure slammed into the boy with a strong wind, followed by two continuous sounds of "pop" and "bang", listening to the movement, something should have fallen on the ground and shattered.
"Boy!" The boy was not slow to react, he was hit like this, he seemed to realize something after hearing the sound, he took a step back, turned around and wanted to leave, but he hit his head on a somewhat short and fat person behind him, this person had a faint smell of oil smoke, and then was grabbed by the man who followed him by the placket of his clothes.
"Don't you walk long? Hit someone, break my ancestral treasures and want to run? No way! The man behind him grabbed the young man, pulled him back in front of him, and said with a cruel smile.
Two black shadows followed, one left and one right, blocking the boy's retreat.
The young man looked at the fragments on the ground and couldn't laugh, although the light was dim, he could also see that it was just a stoneware bowl, how could it be an heirloom, until now, where would he not understand, these three people are specifically here to find trouble, but now they are stronger than people, and if it is not a treasure, they have to pinch their noses and admit it.
"Yes, yes, it's all my fault, it's me who is careless, the three big brothers have a lot, let me go, I still have a few taels of silver on me, if you don't dislike it, just take it and spend it."
The young man was secretly glad in his heart that the current silver had been spent by him, and there was a silver ticket hidden in the mezzanine of his clothes, even if the three people in front of him searched their bodies, they might not be able to find it.
Xu Jiu followed the young man's gaze and saw the stoneware fragments on the ground, and he was also a little embarrassed in his heart, this earthen bowl was held by him just now in the corner of the street, and he didn't know who fed the dog, or if it was broken and thrown away, so empty and white teeth insisted that it was a treasure, it was indeed unreasonable, but the time was so short, it was good to be able to find an earthen bowl, let alone others.
"Less nonsense!" Xu Jiu said viciously deliberately, patted the young man a few times with a familiar car, and took out the silver on his body, "My ancestral treasure is worth a thousand gold, how can it be repaid with just a few taels of silver, I will take it first, and the right will be the interest." ”
"Little brother, although we are poor, we still have a few taels of silver, these are not enough to compensate you, why don't you come with us?" Niu Wu behind him spoke, and the knife in his hand was already against the young man's waist, "If you become a friend, not only will you return all the silver, but we will also have another gift, how about it?" ”
The young man was a little familiar when he heard this voice, and when he turned around, he found that these two people were the people who wanted to invite him to drink in the inn lobby, and then he knew that he had already been targeted, and seeing that there was a sharp blade pressing, the thought of looking for an opportunity to escape was temporarily pressed, "It turned out to be the two eldest brothers, so it is easy to say, but the younger brother is arranged." ”
Having said that, the young man was bitter in his heart, he was alone yesterday to the Liangtian Tunbao, he carried a lot of money, spending money is inevitably extravagant, busy eating and drinking during the day, not caring about the task of his trip, after dinner on the street, was about to take advantage of the curfew to go to the vicinity of the prefect to see, but unexpectedly fell into the three of them.
......
Xu Jiu's good friend left, and the small courtyard where she lived was empty, so Ma Er and the three brought the boy over, which also saved the trouble of finding another place.
Entering the house, Ma Er didn't talk nonsense, he directly took out his waist card and showed his identity, ordinary people saw Jinyiwei, most of them were like Xu Jiuxiang, nervous and frightened, and after learning that he was about to become a part of it, he had a little expectation.
It's just that the boy's reaction was much more than they expected, after looking at Ma Er's waist card, he was not afraid at all, and when Ma Er asked him if he was interested in joining, he still had a honey smile on his face, and looked at the waist card in a daze.
"Don't be stunned, boy!" Xu Jiu shook his hand in front of the young man's eyes and asked the other two, "This kid, can't he be frightened?" ”
Without waiting for Ma Er and Niu Wu to react, the young man spoke, "This big brother, can you show me the waist card in your hand?" ”
Ma Eryi smiled and threw the waist card over, he was not worried about what the young man was doing, if he missed the three-on-one, he would lose his face.
The young man took the waist card and touched it carefully, "It's true, I didn't expect to see my own people." After that, he stood up straight, "Hello Lord Zongqi, Jinyi spies on Zhang Xiao and asks to return to the team." ”
What's going on? Ma Er and the three of them were a little confused, Xu Jiu was still thinking about how to coerce, Niu Wu was thinking about how to lure, it was best to hold him again, in order to make this clever young man succumb, they all thought that this kid was a small guy in a big house, and he was also clever, if he could win it, it would be beneficial to his future duties, but the reversal caught them off guard.
Ma Er reacted the fastest and coughed, "It turned out to be my own brother, I'm ready, let's talk about your own situation." He didn't care if the young man's words were true or false for the time being, so he would talk about it first.
"Yes, my lord, my name is Chen Xiao, and my parents have died since I was a child..."
He and the honest-looking, little guy named Yu Da are orphans, adopted by Jinyiwei since childhood, and placed in the homes of rich families to spy on the news after a little training, there are still many people like them, but after the late Apocalypse, like Ma Er and others, they were abandoned by the imperial court.
"My lord, there is another brother named Yu Da, whose identity is the same as mine, and he has now established himself in the Fan Mansion, if he knows that we have become Jinyi spies again, he will be as happy as me." After the situation was almost said, Zhang Xiao said excitedly.
