Chapter 193: Why Bully Each Other

The carriage was approaching the arch, the top of the hill was almost out of sight, and now they were like a man at the foot of a giant. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The arch consists of several large red logs, four of which are inserted into the ground, and on top of the four logs are two longer large red logs, the upper one shorter than the lower one, giving a sense of interlacing.

A dozen men in white robes with empty hands stood guard on the left and right sides of the arch. They don't look like soldiers, but they stand in a neat, serious manner, their eyes are always looking ahead, and they have a soldier written on the back of their robes, which makes them look like soldiers again.

Ye Cheng looked cautiously, with the consciousness of the white-clothed army before, knowing that even if he didn't wear armor, he might be a soldier in the Tiangu Kingdom.

"There are soldiers, Brother Zi An, slow down the carriage," Ye Cheng said.

"Good," Zhuzian tightened the reins.

The two carriages began to move slowly forward.

As they reached the bottom of the archway, two men in robes reached out to stop the carriage, and one man looked to the left of the carriage and asked, "Who are you?" Why did you enter Yixian County? ”

"We're here to seek medical treatment," Zhu Zi'an roared with a big grin, completely ignoring whether the other party was a soldier or not.

With such a roar, the man was unhappy and instantly grimaced.

Ye Cheng saw the change in the man's face and realized that the atmosphere was a little grim, and if the man didn't let them pass, it would be over. So he hurriedly looked at the man and said, "My lord, don't be angry, my brother is a little angry because he is worried about the patient's condition."

After explaining, Ye Cheng hurriedly asked, "My lord, don't you know how easy it is to see a doctor in this county?" ”

The man seemed unmoved, still with a straight face, shouting "Open the curtain and let me see inside"

"Yes, yes," Ye Cheng stood up with a grin, bent his body and slowly lifted the curtain.

The man stepped forward, stretched out his head to look at it carefully, and suddenly shouted with some anger, "Why so many people? Is it a rebel and a thief? After saying that, he quickly stepped back, glaring at Ye Cheng with two eyes.

Ye Cheng was a little speechless, how could there be a lot of people to have something to do with the rebellious ministers and thieves, he slowly lowered the curtain and patiently explained, "My lord, don't get me wrong, how can we be rebellious ministers and thieves." Last night's blizzard froze our other horses to death, and only these two carriages remained, so twenty or thirty men were crammed into two carriages."

The man thought about it and knew that last night's blizzard was indeed terrible. Slowly let go of his guard, turned to get out of the way, and waved his hand to let the carriage pass, "Hurry up, there is a medical hall on the mountainside, you can go there and have a look"

"Thank you, sir," Ye Cheng replied with a smile.

The princes also thanked each other and said, "Thank you."

"Driving" Zhu Zi'an hurriedly drove the carriage to the mountain road around the mountain.

Two horse-drawn carriages slowly circle the mountain, and the tall trees hide the road around the mountain, like a forest path.

The buildings along the way are the same as those in the county town you met earlier, and there are some thatched houses next to each other at the bottom of the mountain.

Thatched huts are built on both sides of the mountain road around the mountain, and blend in perfectly with the tall trees.

Because it was broad daylight, you could see some thatched huts with their doors open for business, selling some daily groceries, food, and weapons...... The things sold in the shops were no different from the county seat of Xiao Guozhong.

The difference is that the county seat of the Tiangu Kingdom was built on the mountain, and because of the status and class, some poor people could only live in thatched huts at the bottom of the mountain, and merchants with a little money could use it to live in palace-style buildings above the mountainside.

Because the number of floors of the palace-style building is different, the status it represents is also different. The higher the number of floors, the higher the status, and the higher the residence.

Halfway up the hill of the medical hall they were looking for, Ye Cheng seemed to be a person of medium status. He was a little worried that the hospital would make things difficult for them. Judging from the shopkeeper in Lei Heng's Tavern, people with a little bit of status are all powerful people.

"If you don't have any money, just give Lao Tzu a roll"

"Bang"

Suddenly, while the carriage was still climbing around the mountain, a man's roar was heard from the thatched hut on the outside of the mountain road, and then a gray-haired old man fell out of the thatched hut.

The old man fell on the snow-covered mountain road, and before he could recover his strength, he immediately got up, knelt in front of the thatched hut and begged bitterly, "You can give me a handful, my granddaughter has been hungry for several days......

The old man was scrawny, his face was wrinkled, and he was wearing a shabby garment, and it was very thin, with many patches on it.

Ye Cheng saw that the old man's clothes were thin, and in this icy and snowy underground, he was worried about whether the old man could really withstand the cold.

"Brother Zi'an, stop the car," Ye Cheng said with a solemn expression.

Zhu Zi'an couldn't get used to seeing the old man being bullied, so he stopped the car a little angrily and said "huh".

The carriage stopped beside the old man, and Zhu Zi'an immediately jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the thatched hut.

Ye Cheng followed closely, he knew what Zhu Zi'an would do, in order to punish the guy who bullied the old man, so he didn't plan to stop it. He took off his robe and draped it over the old man's body.

The old man suddenly dodged sideways in a panic, and his robe fell on the snow.

Ye Cheng straightened his palm in front of him, signaling "I'm not a bad person", he saw that the old man's panicked mood eased a little, slowly bowed down and picked up the robe on the snow, and said, "Old man, I have no malicious ........"

"Who are you? How dare you mess around with me," suddenly came the man's shout in the thatched hut.

Ye Cheng followed the sound and looked in, the thatched hut was very simple, only three sacks with some rice on the ground.

A sturdy man in a coarse linen robe was being choked by Zhu Zi'an.

The sturdy man slapped Zhu Zi'an's arm and shouted, "Let go, I'm out of breath....."

Ye Cheng realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly rushed in and grabbed Zhu Zi'an's arm, stopping him, "Brother, don't be impulsive, it's going to be troublesome if you make a mistake."

Zhu Zi'an pushed the sturdy man to the wall of the thatched house, and then pointed at the man and yelled, "If you dare to bully the old man again, Lao Tzu will kill you."

The stout man fell off the wall, knelt on the ground, and begged for mercy in a panic, "Don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore......"

Ye Cheng felt a little heartache when he saw the man bullying an old man like this.

Judging by where they were dressed and where they lived, they were all poor families who were supposed to help each other, so why did men do these things to the elderly.

Ye Cheng looked down at the three sacks of rice in front of him, and secretly said in his heart, "Is it because of these rice?" ”

If this is the case, Ye Cheng's heart is a little angry. But the man was also from a poor family, he didn't want to be embarrassed, picked up a small sack and filled nearly thirty catties of rice, turned around and walked to the old man, put the rice in front of the old man, and said in a low voice, "Old man, you can take this rice"

The old man looked at Ye Cheng, a little guarded.

In order to reduce the old man's vigilance, Ye Cheng said with a smile, "Old man, we just want to help you, there is no malice"

The old man's eyes were still staring at Ye Cheng, and his hands tentatively stretched out to the rice bag. Seeing that Ye Cheng was still smiling, he immediately picked up the rice bag and hurriedly ran down the mountain.
