In the forty-nine cities at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are endless capable people and heroes, and there are countless heroes.

Regardless of the distance for the time being, it is said that when the Qing Dynasty was about to pour the seedlings, the six gentlemen of the Wuxu Reform Law beheaded the public at the entrance of the vegetable market, and Tan Si and Mr. Tan's two sentences of "I smiled at the sky from the horizontal knife, and went to leave the liver and gallbladder two Kunlun" The poem was read out, and the applause on the law field at the entrance of the vegetable market was about to collapse the Forbidden City!

A scholar is not afraid of death, and he generously and sadly recommends Xuanyuan, such a good man, how can he not be a hero? !

In order to reward Tan Si and Mr. Tan for their heroism, and in order to live up to the life of their true confidant, a big sword king and fifth master stood up in the dart line in Sijiu City, and faced the fast knife spear in the hands of the imperial eagle dog along the way, and single-handedly escorted Mr. Tan's family back to his hometown in Liuyang, Hunan. When it comes to the five masters of the big sword king on the rivers and lakes, they all have to pick a big thumb brother, but they can praise it with their voices-a hero!

But the old saying in this world is really to the point - the house sparrow that loves to cry does not grow meat, and the noisy copper kettle does not boil water!

People who really have that earth-shattering ability have always spoken like a mouthful of spit and a pit, and when the words hit the ground, they are nails! The poet immortal Li Bai said well in the poem "Chivalrous Travel" - three cups of Turannuo, Wuyue is light!

But the characters who don't have much ability on their bodies have always had to rely on a mouth and tongue to bloom lotus flowers, and when the clouds and mountains are covered with fog, they can say that the iron tree blooms, the old mussel gives birth to pearls, the mountains move to the sea, and people come back from the dead!

Resting in Sijiu City, the gentlemen walking on the scene all gave such a verbal hero a name - Kanye!

It's like there is such a Kanye in Sijiu City, who still has two coins in his waist on weekdays, and he knows some people in the scene around him, and after three cups of yellow soup in his stomach, he opens his mouth and says a sentence - as long as he is willing to spend money in these Sijiu City, there is really nothing that the master can't do!

I guess I heard that this Kanye was about to blow through three layers of cowhide. There is also such a good and honest and laughing gentleman of Sijiu City who slowly threw out a sentence - you are so capable, then I will entrust you to do something?

As soon as I heard that someone really asked for help in person, the Kanye who was blowing his eyebrows and dancing suddenly came to his senses - they are all friends, and you have a lot of money, there is a price of 10,000 taels of silver, and I can pick up anything for you in Sijiu City!

Listening to this Kanye's words, the gentlemen of the Sijiu City who love to be more sincere and laugh waved their hands unhurriedly - this is all entrusted to you, naturally you can't pick and search, so as not to let you pay for your own expenses! I'll give you 100,000 taels of silver, can you think of a way to let the gates of the city open half an hour earlier?

As soon as he said this, he said. And no matter how Kanye called it so good that he hung a breath and carried it over, even the men of the forty-ninth city who watched this lively scene at the dinner, and there were two people who choked on a mouthful of wine at that time, and they all coughed up blood, but they still held their stomachs and laughed!

Just those inner and outer gates in the forty-nine cities. In the morning, the door is opened at 5:10 o'clock, and the lock is almost left at 7 o'clock in the evening. The Qing Dynasty has been in the world for more than 200 years. Even if there is a decree of the Imperial Palace, it will be spread outside the city overnight. That can only be wronged by the eunuch who sent the decree to go to the city, sit in a wooden hanging basket, tremble and fall down the city wall!

Even if he really ran into the arrogant master, he put a knife on the neck of the city gate, and wanted to let the city gate official who was holding the key to open the city gate, the city gate official did not quarrel or quarrel, did not rush or panic, but just stretched out his hand with a smile - Ma Jun Yamen, Infantry Army Yamen, Jiumen Admiral's Mansion, Gyeonggi City Seeking Division, Imperial Palace Ouchi Military Aircraft Department, Tiger Fu Seal Letter Unlocking Order. Dozens of yamen have been brought with printed documents, so that the city gate can be opened!

Otherwise, it would be easy for you to take my head, but it would be very difficult for you to open the city—and it would be a capital offense to open the city gates without permission anyway. You're really scaring people with a headshot!

Seeing that the city gate officials were soft and hard, and they were not stingy with raw and cooked, the arrogant character could only turn his waist and try to touch the things and procedures that the city gate officials said. But if you really want to complete all these things and procedures, it will be dark and bright, and the city gate will be open at four o'clock in the morning!

Looking at the Sijiu City and touching it carefully, the characters who can have the ability to open the city in advance all live in the Forbidden City, how can there be extravagant characters next to them who can do this?

Since then, the gentlemen who are walking on the scene in Sijiu City have bumped into the Kanye who has no score to speak, and the split is a sentence that hides a needle in the cotton and smashed it - you are so capable, then do you want to let the city gate open early? !

Although after the seedlings were poured from the Great Qing Kingdom, the gates of these Sijiu Cities had not been so tightly controlled, and sometimes in the middle of the night, the masters who took the ghost road to buy and sell could steal a loophole in and out of the city defense. But when the city gate is opened and closed every morning and evening, the military and police guarding the city gate really don't dare to be sloppy, and they always pinch a little before opening the city gate, for fear that a mistake will fall into the eyes of those officials, and they are afraid that the food messenger hanging on their bodies will be completely settled.

But early this morning, several city gates inside and outside the city of Sijiu were all opened half an hour earlier than in the past. Although the peasant households on the outskirts of Beijing and the idle vendors pushing carts carrying their burdens into the city still could not escape the extortion of the military police and tax collectors guarding the city gates, many four-wheeled or two-wheeled exquisite carriages were unimpeded inside and outside the city gates. There was a handlebar style that was familiar with the military police and tax collectors standing in the hole of the city gate, and they all opened their voices and greeted each other: "Don't take the dog, I got up so early today and entered the city, did I go to Bada Hutong to find your daughter-in-law?" It's too early, I'm afraid your daughter-in-law still has one lying on the bed, right? ”

"Master Luo, you are auspicious! It's early in the morning, Master Luo, are you teasing me? I'm a person who carries a long job to eat, when will it be my turn to talk about my last daughter-in-law? Isn't there a bustle in the city today, and the main family is urging Ba to enter the city early to occupy a good seat? ”

"Then you're too late! At the beginning of the city this morning, more than a dozen carriages passed in front of me, and it was estimated that all of them were heading to the cattle and horse market in the south of the city. ”

"Can't you? Master Luo, I rushed here at the time when you opened the city gate in the past, even if it was a step slower, it couldn't make people preempt it for so long? ”

"Still stupid? For the first time in Sijiu City, the city gates were all opened one hour earlier this morning, just to let the men inside and outside Sijiu City see this lively scene! ”

"Ho! Which character can have the ability to make Sijiu City open the city gate early? This ability is amazing?! ”

"Which character? I'm really not afraid to tell you. Today, in the city, the characters who can speak in black and white can all focus on the excitement of the cattle and horse market in the south of the city! With these figures turning their waists here, it is said that the city gate has been opened early, that is, the city wall has been demolished, and the left is just to repair it in the future! ”

Before the handlebar of the famous dog retracted the tongue that was spit out in shock, the thick curtain hanging low on the car was already heavily lifted, and the master sitting in the car kicked the dog Bu's ass with a white face: "What are you talking about here?" Ma Yoer's Bencheng South Cattle and Horse Market! Today, if you don't look down on this excitement, you don't want to take the salary of your eldest son this year, and you will roll me up on the 28th of the lunar month! ”

Xu is looking at the tax collector who didn't talk to the dog, Luo Ye also let the tail of his words piggyback a few words, and the master sitting in the car hurriedly arched his hand towards Luo Ye: "This man is hard." I'm in a hurry to see this excitement, there must be a mistake in the words, you forgive me! It's a little bit of a meaning here, you make a pot of wine to warm up your body, how much is a human heart! ”

The moment the voice fell. A piece of ocean had already flown towards Luo Ye's arms, whose face was somewhat ugly, and suddenly Luo Ye answered with a smile: "You are polite!" It's lively in Sijiu City today. It's a lack of taste to look less! You hit the gate of the city and go through the main road. Take a shortcut along the wine lees alley, you should not be mistaken to see this excitement! ”

After thanking the tax collector Luo Ye who was diligent in guiding the way, the dog drove the carriage through the city gate cave and ran straight towards the wine lees alley not far away. And on the road outside the city leading to the city gate cave, more carriages also rushed in piles

Mo Dao people walk early, and there are more early pedestrians. Those masters who got up early in the morning and ran from the courtyard outside the city to the forty-nine city, but they still couldn't get ahead of those old players who lived in the forty-nine city. Not to mention the craftsmen and coolies who operated the bullfighting scene overnight.

Before the sky saw a little light, the elm stakes with the thickness of the calf and the length of one zhang were sent from the timber yard in the Sijiu City to the Niuma Market, and the three layers inside and outside, densely rammed to the ground with a mallet. A new thick water willow plank was divided into three layers, and smashed it on the elm stake with a finger-thick wolf tooth nail, and the crack of the slab was filled with three layers of soil and sprinkled with water. After the small north wind, it blew hard. It's almost three points stronger than the city wall, which can be regarded as able to withstand the impact of the bullfight.

On the bullring, which was carefully swept three times, the white sand half an inch thick and carefully sifted with a mosquito-eye sieve was sprinkled on the rammed loess, for fear that there would be stones mixed in the sand and hurt the cow's hooves.

Seeing that the sky in the east was white, the coolies who sprinkled white sand hurriedly took down the scorched bitter willow leaves from the fire burning nearby, and kneaded them into foam with their palms and raised them on the white sand - they all said that the bull's eye can see some unclean things, and the ox's blood is easy to provoke some lonely souls and wild ghosts, and only this bitter willow leaf can dispel evil spirits and calm the spirit. According to the rules handed down by the old generation, at dawn, hundreds of ghosts in the bullring are easy, and the players watching the excitement next to them are even more taboo, and everything is peaceful!

The live fence gates used in the four bullrings are old objects, and after many years of wind and rain, the wood has turned black, and the copper bolts have faintly turned green. You can take a brush of water and moisten it with oil, and you can see at a glance that there is a real understanding of the craftsman's master, this is the bullfighting family called by the palace of Prince Gong in the eight iron hat kings. The door leaf and copper bolt buckle cut out of ironwood are also mixed with three percent of purple gold, which can let people know what is rich and noble!

The round grandstand was built overnight, and the mounds built up by the three clay were horizontally covered with cedar planks, and the layers of steps were spread out like a staggered down, but it really can't be said how exquisite, that is, those who watched the excitement could have a place to sit.

But on the top of the mound of the spacious boundary, there are seventy or eighty small compartments with wooden walls and wooden roofs, and the high-quality silver frost charcoal stove has long roasted the small compartment as warm as spring, carrying the tea and snacks in the compartment, dried and fresh melons and fruits, waiting for the rich and noble families to watch the bullfighting scene.

On this day, the characters in the scene in the city that came early had already sat in the cubicle they had booked early. It is estimated that some people still remember the rules of watching the bullfighting scene in the early years, and the one-foot-wide red lacquer tray held by the official family was full of silver horns and big sons, waiting for the reward when there was a brilliant scene, so that the hands were broken and shouted to drink the name of the master of the family and splashed it into the bullring!

They are all walking around the scene in Sijiu City, and these characters who can sit in the cubicle and watch the bullfighting scene are almost familiar faces. There are people who have a deep friendship on weekdays, but at this time they have squeezed into a small cubicle and whispered some private words, laughing heartily from time to time. And those who only know a person with a general name, even take advantage of the lively scene of this bullfight, hugging each other and chatting with each other. There is a person who has a temperamental appetite during the conversation, and this mouth has already made an appointment to meet at the banquet in the Eight Great Residences and Eight Great Springs in the evening, and I will not see you or disperse!

Holding his two arms, Master Xiong, who had been busy on the bullfighting scene since the night before, finally caught a vacancy, found a leeward place and sat down, grabbed four or five freshly baked donkey meat and ate it happily, and then took a big bowl of crushed tofu brains under his hand and poured it straight down his neck, and then sighed heavily: "This fucking slippery has stayed up all night, and finally kicked this noodle out!" ”

Ma Er handed a cigarette roll to Xiong Ye, and the close-fitting broken hand beside Xiong Ye stammered his hand to hold the foreign fire that had just been drawn, and leaned towards the cigarette roll that Xiong Ye held in his mouth: "Master Xiong, this time inside and outside Sijiu City, you are a provocative!" Don't say that you are occupying the identity of the dealer in the Ssangyong betting, just say that this can hold the scene of 2,000 people, if you are not at the helm outside here to take the idea, it is estimated that no one in Sijiu City dares to support this stubble? ! ”

After taking a few puffs of cigarettes, Master Xiong straightened his arm and stretched his waist: "Among the people who poke the pole in these four or nine cities, there are really a few who dare to support this scene." It's just that the things to be done in these 49 cities have always paid attention to personal scenes. If it weren't for the fact that Ye had a friendship with the characters in charge of Lao Huo's main gate, and Duan Ye took care of the food, it would not be our turn to reach out and make a fortune! Not to mention the side, just last night in this cattle and horse market, the craftsmen who supported the family's materials and the coolies who picked up the scene, a few of you reached out to others, right? ”

Salivating with a face, the broken urging who was next to Master Xiong was very reluctant to reach out and cover his bulging waist: "This is not a bald man following the moon, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree!" With Master Xiong's face here, a few of us will also eat meat and fishy rice with our hands! But don't worry, Master Xiong, the benefits of carrying it in your waist last night have to be that you took the big head."

With a sneer, Xiong Ye squinted his eyes and looked at the broken man standing beside him: "As for the broken money of the melons and dates you are carrying in your waist, I really don't look at it in my eyes!" As long as you can be sharp, hold the face in front of you, and stare at the characters who should be stared at death, there are still a lot of benefits waiting for you to take! ”

Nodding and smiling, the broken urging standing beside Master Xiong immediately counted with his fingers: "Master Xiong, you can be down-to-earth about this!" There are our brothers staring at the gates of the inner city and the outer city, as long as there is an eye-catching figure showing up, it can be reported to you immediately. Since last night, none of us have left our brothers in this cattle and horse market, not a single one is dozing off or lazy, and they all have seen the boundary that should be stared at to death, and they really haven't found any leaks! And then there are the streets and alleys before and after the Chrysanthemum Society, and people are also sent to watch, even if a fly wants to fly out, then we have to see if it is male or female! ”

After laughing dryly, Master Xiong slowly stood up, muttering as if talking to himself: "Don't talk too much!" If something goes wrong."

"If there is really a leak, Master Xiong, our brother will admit punishment and never stumble!"

"Hmph, if there is a leak, then it's not just Master Xiong and I who will take care of you!" (To be continued......)
