Chapter 6 [The Greasy Ministers of the State]
The fiery red sunset will set, even the spring breeze makes people feel cold all over the body, Bai Dong sat cross-legged on the highest mound on the ridge, his long hair was scattered, and his face had sword marks, but there was a bit of a fierce taste of a ranger.
The book bag is worn under the armpit, this is a clear proof of the identity of the scholar, it must not be discarded, and the place where the eye can see is the direction in which the woman in black appeared. Who is the saint of the person who pursued her? Bai Dong was both nervous and a little curious, thinking back on his coping strategy, he was relieved that he didn't find an obvious mistake.
Really smart people will always solve problems in seemingly stupid ways.
If you change to a person who thinks he is smart, there are three best choices at this moment, one is to kill the woman in black and use her head to invite merit and be rewarded; Or let her settle in the cave and leave here immediately and flee away, as if the latter was more secure, and it was a gentleman's choice not to stand under the wall; Or hide yourself and wait until it's safe to leave.
After all, Bai Dong has the heart of a modern person and will not kill a woman for no reason; Escaping is not the best policy, the sun is about to set, there were even wolves in the Guanzhong Plain two thousand years ago, and escaping down the ridge is equivalent to looking for death; As for hiding, it is the next policy, if the person who is chasing and killing the woman in black finds out, he will only be regarded as a member of the same party, and he will not be able to save his life by pretending to be a scholar.
Now Bai Dong is waiting for the chasing soldiers to appear, the ancients have a strict hierarchy, and they can distinguish the identity of the person by looking at their clothes, if it is the right way of the official family, they are not afraid that they will hurt the scholars, even if they refuse to fool themselves, find the woman in black, and see the danger is also the style of a scholar, they will only cut off the woman's head, and then stretch out a thumbs up at themselves. If it is a bandit or robber, he will have to run down the mountain to gamble with the wolves, and there is no way to do it. Therefore, pray to God Lu, and don't come to be a bandit and a strong man.
Finally someone came, five hundred meters, three hundred meters figure gradually clear, it was five people who acted like the wind, when they were a hundred meters away, Bai Dong clearly saw that the four people in front of him were all half-body leather armor, described as fierce, and the back seemed to be a fair-skinned young man, bronze armor and jade crown, with an extraordinary temperament. You can breathe a sigh of relief, it is estimated that there are no such beautiful characters among the bandits and strongmen, looking at the clothes, most of the white-faced young people are the sons and grandsons of this era, and the superior people.
It is easy for superior people to do it, and it is easy to find a common language. Bai Dong didn't hesitate at all, trotted down the mound, stabbed the middle finger of his right hand deep into his throat, suddenly felt nauseous, bent down and retched loudly, saw that the bitter water was spit out, and simply threw himself on the ground and began to moan loudly.
"Stay!"
The young man who looked like a boy made a hand gesture, and four big men in armor surrounded Bai Dong, one of them came over to help him up, looked at him carefully, turned around and said loudly: "Jing Gong, this person is wearing a sword bag, he seems to be a scholar, his hair bun has been scattered, and there are sword marks on his face, judging from the scars, it should be the injury of the cheap maid."
"Good man! This vision is less than that of being a forensic doctor in the 21st century, thank you, thank you, count buddy owing you a favor. ”
Bai Dong really wanted to laugh and win. In this era, there are two situations that can be called 'duke': one is the duke of Zhou Tianzi's own title; the other is the honorific title of the subordinates to the officials and the subordinates to the nobles, the beautiful young man in front of him looks no more than twenty years old, if he shaves his beard, it is estimated that he will be eighteen or nineteen years old, and the armor man calls him Jing Gong, obviously the latter.
"Scholar?"
The white-faced young man walked up to Bai Dong, his eyes swept over his saber, and he took out a volume of "Shangshu" from the book bag and flipped through it, nodding slightly: "Compile Wei still has creases, and the book is loose and not tightly bound, so it can be seen that it was read not long ago." Mr. is still studious during his travels, when he is a great talent, please accept the Jing Supervisor's worship! ”
Are the readers of this era so easy to deceive? Bai Dong resisted the urge to look up to the sky and laugh wildly, got up slowly, and returned the salute in the same way as Jing Jian: "Don't dare to be, Qin Bai Dong, I am fortunate to meet Jing Gong, this is great, that woman"
"Did the gentleman see her? Was she hurting Mr.? ”
Jing Jian said that he was very concerned, put back the book, walked to Bai Dong, looked at him with infinite tenderness, and saw that Bai someone's face was hot, and said in his heart What is wrong with this surname Jing, do men have this kind of gaze when they look at men, you are Jing Gong, but not Jing Gonggong? After a few careful glances, I saw that the person in front of him was handsome, even the skin at the root of his beard was like beautiful jade, his eyes flowed, and a pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be able to speak
Wait, Jing Jian? If it's really that guy, he's very famous. Qin Xiaogong Yingqu Liang has been strong all his life, but he is only fortunate to favor this person, although there is no record of this hobby with broken sleeves and peaches in the official history, it is ambiguous in the history of the wild, such a beautiful young man, but he was favored by the monarch, and there seems to be not many records about Yingqu Liang's wife in history? Looking at the essence through the phenomenon, the more he thought about it, the more he felt in his heart, and he bent down and vomited for a while.
"Well, this woman is really spicy, she hurt me with a sword and kicked me a few times, you see I'm not feeling well now. Jing Gong is a young hero, I must catch her to avenge me! ”
Bai Dong pointed casually: "That woman has fled to the east, chase after her, you can't be afraid!" ”
"Sir is frightened."
Jing Jian sighed and shook his head, as if to soothe Bai Dong's pain, gently pulled up his long hair for him, and carefully examined the sword marks on his face; His fingers were soft and slippery, they should have been very comfortable, but Bai Dong was a little uneasy, this guy was so strange, could it be that he had taken a fancy to himself and made it clear that the carriage and horse came to eat tofu?
"Did you all hear what Mr. said?" Jing Jian suddenly laughed.
"Gong Jing, I'll go and track down that later."
"False, ridiculous! Since the gentleman said that she escaped, he told us that she was still hiding nearby."
Jing Jian smiled more and more happily: "Searching this mountain, not an inch of land is allowed to be spared, after eating my palm, it is already unexpected that she can escape here, where is the strength to escape again?" ”
The four armored men glanced at Bai Dong strangely, and they all took the order.
"Actually, it's not easy to be a chaser, this woman runs very fast, especially in the mountains, our horses can't be used, so we can only track on foot, and my men and I can't even take care of dinner."
Jing Jian is very good at arranging his hair, and quickly pulled up a beautiful bun for Bai Dong, and sighed: "Sir's hair is so good, black and dense. It's a pity that Jing Jian didn't carry a good crown hairpin, so he could only tie it up temporarily, Mr. wouldn't be surprised, right? Hey, in fact, if the gentleman is willing to tell me where that woman is hiding, we will definitely become very good friends, just like Guan Zhong and Uncle Bao, what do you say? ”
"Jing Gong's technique is really good, you know the way of the road, I used to travel with my teacher when I was a teenager, and I saw many girls in a strange place, they don't farm, don't weave, don't raise silkworms, they make a living by helping people take care of their hair. They are all very beautiful, their fingers are white and soft, and they are dressed like fairies, which makes people look comfortable. I always thought that they were the best people in the world to tidy up their hair, but when I saw Jing Gong today, I realized that I was just a frog at the bottom of a well."
"Fix someone's hair to make a living? This is really incredible, and it is really interesting for Mr. to speak, what is the frog at the bottom of the well? Jing Jian had never heard anyone talk about it. ”
"Uh, this frog at the bottom of the well means that a water frog sits at the bottom of the well, and it can't jump up, and it can only see a piece of sky as big as the mouth of the well" Bai Dong was slightly stunned, and then remembered that this idiom came from Zhuangzi's autumn water chapter, and now Zhuangzi's mother is still a little girl, no wonder this Jing Gong Guild is at a loss.
"I see, it's so interesting, sir is really talented. By the way, those women only fix people's hair, I'm afraid it's not enough to make a living, right? Jing is not talented, and he has been to several countries, but he has never heard of such a person. ”
"Smart people are smart people, yes, of course, it's not enough to make a living just by fixing your hair, so when you meet male customers who are willing to pay, they will also provide very wonderful services, such as 'health care packages' or something, all one-on-one service, in a separate room. A beautiful boy like Jing Gong has a good way of arranging his hair, if he does this kind of business, he will definitely be full of guests and can make a lot of money, I don't lie to you, really. ”
Under Bai Dong's patient explanation, Jing Jian barely understood the meaning of the new terms of service and package, and looked at Bai Dong with great admiration: "Mr. is very good, he really has a university question, I haven't been to such a novel place, it's a pity." I don't know in which country? What's the name? ”
"Hey, in my early years, I walked the world with my teacher, and I went to countless strange places, many of which I can't remember, but I still remember the name of this place clearly, it's called East ~ End, Jing Gong has to remember."
"East ~ End? Sure enough, I've never heard of it, it must be a very magical and beautiful place, right? "Jing Jian is fascinated, but it's a little strange, why do those women have to meet male guests to provide that kind of 'health care package'? After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out, and suddenly woke up: "Mr. turned out to be a man of tongue, but do you really think that you can get away with it in this way?" Qin never kills scholars, but if you want to make your husband suffer something, Jing Jian can still do it. ”
"Your men are back, just ask them if they don't want to?"
Seeing the four armored men turning back empty-handed, Bai Dong's heart was relieved, I don't know if he had deceived them by his disguise at the entrance of the cave, or if the woman in black really had the tenacious vitality of a cockroach and actually left on her own?
