In front of a table, Xue Rong lowered his head and drank tea, his face depressed.

Cheng Ming walked over, sat across from him, took the teapot and poured himself a cup, and asked with a smile, "Great talent, how is this place?" ”

Xue Rong nodded, and said with a reluctant smile: "Dao Elder is a good means!" ”

Cheng Ming gave him a strange look and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Emotions are a little wrong! ”

Xue Rong shook his head and didn't say this, but pointed to the guests at the next table and said, "Dao Chief, I see how many guests you have here, but most of them are at a loss, how did you invite them?" ”

"Oh. These are all fateful people, because fate will meet. ”

Cheng Ming did not elaborate.

I can't tell him anything about this.

The setting of the cute rabbit card is that it is a creature with a difference.

Although this range is large, everyone who comes to the teahouse should have their own story.

Cheng Ming is very interested in these stories, and he was not in a hurry in the past.

The teahouse is always open, the flow of customers is always there, there are always stories, and there will always be a chance to hear.

"Don't be sloppy with me, there must be something, tell me about it!"

Seeing that Cheng Ming insisted on asking, Xue Rong sighed and said, "I really don't want to trouble the Taoist anymore!" ”

"Less nonsense, talk fast!"

"Okay!"

Xue Rong shook his head and sighed: "I set off a few days ago, riding a good horse, but I arrived in Kaifeng in one day, and the road was quite smooth, but when I arrived in Texas, I met a strange beggar, and I began to memorize words one after another!" ”

He shook his head, as if recalling.

"The beggar, who must have been quite old, smelled all over his body, had oily hair, and had mud on his face, and looked particularly disgusting. But the strange thing is that his hands are clean, and they are thin and long, and very beautiful.

As I passed through the city that day, I saw him begging for food, and I stumbled upon the hands, but after a glance, the beggar came up and begged for money. ”

Xue Rong said helplessly: "I earned it a few times, but I didn't get out of his stubborn beating, so I could only give a dozen copper plates in desperation." I figured out how I could eat a full meal.

Have you ever thought that he would not let me pay the money, and make noise in the street, saying that I have a lot of money on me, and that I am very rich, but I don't give him alms, which is a rich thing.

I dragged with him for a long time, and a large group of people gathered around to watch the excitement. I wanted to leave, but he was holding me so hard that I couldn't move, so I had no choice but to reason with him there. ”

Cheng Ming raised his eyebrows, a little interested.

Xue Rong continued: "It's not a big deal to see the excitement, maybe it's because they saw me carrying a package and I was neatly dressed, and they all clamored for me to give me some more money."

At that time, I was angry, thinking that this was blackmail, but I didn't think that he was just a beggar, how could he dare to mess around with me, a famous showman. It's just stubborn and doesn't give.

After a long time, the beggar suddenly let go of me, took out a tattered money bag from his bosom, and kept pulling out the silver. ”

Xue Rong said while reminiscing, with a bit of incredulity on his face.

"His money bag is obviously deflated, but he can keep taking out silver, and there are a lot of copper coins mixed in it. He paid for the surrounding shops while he was digging, and scolded me for being rich and unkind.

The shopkeepers of those shops smiled and nodded in agreement while collecting the money. It felt like they were colluding, and I was the only one who was dewy and couldn't figure out what was going on. ”

Cheng Ming's eyes flickered, and he lifted the teapot and refilled a cup for him.

"There was a steamed bun shop owner who secretly advised me to leave quickly, and I was about to ask why, but the beggar came back and threw a certain amount of silver to the steamed bun shop owner, loudly saying that it was the money for the steamed buns that had been paid in advance this month. Then he squinted at me, making me uncomfortable.

I knew the beggar was playing tricks, but I couldn't figure out what he meant. ”

Xue Rong shook his head and said: "This farce just lasted for a cup of tea, the beggars left, and the people who watched the excitement dispersed in a hurry. My second monk couldn't figure it out, so he could only leave with a confused face.

But when I got to the inn and touched the money bag, I understood the whole thing. ”

Cheng Ming couldn't help but smile and said, "Nothing?" ”

"Nothing!" Xue Rong smiled bitterly: "My money is hidden in the deepest part of the backpack, wrapped in several layers of yellow silk, and it is tied to death on the mouth, obviously there is no trace of moving, but the silver is missing."

When I tried to find the beggar, he had disappeared without a trace.

I was penniless, and I had no place to stay. Speaking of which, I would like to thank the Taoist for his generous gift. ”

Xue Rong saluted respectfully, "If it weren't for the sudden thought of you that day, I'm afraid I would have been cornered." ”

Cheng Ming waved his hand and asked, "I remember when you left, didn't you take two family members with you?" Why is it that you are left with yourself in the end? ”

Xue Rong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But I brought it, but the money has always been on me, what is the difference between one person who has no money and three people who have no money?" ”

"When the beggar pesters you, you can let the family beat him!" Cheng Ming said with a smile.

Xue Rong said: "Don't joke with the Dao Chief, let's help the little brother solve the problem in front of him." I'll write you a note, where can I lend me some silver for both purposes? ”

"It doesn't matter!" Cheng Ming touched his chin and said, "I'm very curious about that beggar." ”

He thought for two seconds, slapped the table and said, "I'll go to Texas with you!" ”

"Huh?" Xue Rong was dumbfounded.

What's going on?

"Ahhh Haven't you eaten yet? By the way, I'm going to try Texas Grilled Chicken too! Cheng Ming grabbed Xue Rong's shoulders and walked away with a soft snort, and the two disappeared in an instant.

The two big living people suddenly disappeared in front of them, startling the surrounding tables.

Someone hurriedly greeted the guy loudly, holding the place where Cheng Ming disappeared, and said something.

Then I saw the big head and the bald head, swaying and shining.

---

Texas, four days at night.

An invisible whirlpool, two people appeared out of thin air.

As soon as Cheng Ming took a breath, he was choked and coughed.

Covering his mouth, he jumped out of the distance and said loudly: "Where is this, why is it so stinky?" ”

Xue Rong said embarrassedly: "It's not cold at night, and there is nowhere to stay." So I sneaked to the back wall of the stable, where there was a pile of horse dung, dig a hole and get into it......"

"Gotta get it, don't say it!"

Cheng Ming grabbed him, dodged and jumped out of the distance, until he went to the street and walked more than 200 meters, then he put down his sleeves and said with admiration: "You can stand this, admire!" Admire! ”

Xue Rong shrugged: "Isn't this forced to have no choice?" ”

Cheng Ming suddenly remembered something and said, "You didn't drill, did you?" ”

"Almost, almost!" Xue Rong also had palpitations, wiping the non-existent sweat on his forehead.

"Your ......"

"Don't worry, the Taoist chief is smart, the two family members I took out are smart, if you can't see me tomorrow morning, you will go directly to the West Gate Gate and wait."

Cheng Ming nodded, "Okay, I'll take you to stay first, find that beggar tomorrow, and see what tricks he plays!" ”
