Chapter Seventy-Three: Grievances and Hatreds
Late at night, sitting beside the bushes in the mountains and forests, Yu Shaobai touched his chest from time to time, and the smile on his face was quite obscene. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Young man, what is your chest bulging, what is hidden?"
When Yu Shaobai heard this, he smiled and said, "Master, you have discovered this." After that, he took out the package in his arms, which was full of silver money, at this time the Ming Dynasty, the passage of treasure money has not yet come out, the common people use silver and copper money, due to the influence of the former Yuan, merchants use silver money.
Looking at so many silver bills, Mrs. Shi was surprised: "Where did you come from?" ā
"When I was looking for clothes for my wife, I found five hundred and thirty-five in the fourth master's room, you see...... There are also jade bracelets, silver hairpins, and jade wrenches are the most unique is that there is a jade Guanyin, and the teacher will give it to you. ā
Yu Shaobai handed the jade Guanyin pendant to Shitai, but Jingfan Shitai shook his head, "This is a thief, and the monks can't accept it." ā
Hearing this, Yu Shaobai sighed helplessly, put the things away, stuffed them into his arms, yawned, he also felt sleepy, so he leaned on the tree and fell asleep.
When they woke up the next day, they headed south and finally saw a village.
"Mrs. Shi, how is this foot strength?"
Looking at the two donkeys that Yu Shaobai bought, Master Jing Fan sighed, "Poor nuns don't know how to ride." ā
"Uh...... Old man, sell me the cart over there, and build me a donkey cart. ā
Soon the two got on the donkey cart, and under the drive of Yu Shaobai, an intern coachman, the donkey cart slowly rushed towards the county seat.
"Mrs. Shi, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Mrs. Shi's face was pale, Yu Shaobai asked worriedly.
Shitai waved her hand, "It's nothing, the road is too bumpy, I'm a little dizzy." ā
ā¦ā¦
Soon the two came to the bamboo forest outside the county, and Mrs. Shi finally vomited, and Yu Shaobai didn't expect her to get motion sickness, but fortunately, Shuiyuefang was in front.
The Water Moon Fang is just east of the small bamboo forest outside the city, and there is a road leading to the city gate, and every night, there will be all kinds of men walking on this road leading to the gate of Bliss.
"Mrs. Shi, I'll go in first, and I don't know if the old beggar is inside." After saying that, Yu Shaobai walked towards Shuiyuefang.
Although the reputation of Shuiyuefang in Lanxi County is not as good as that of Chunmanlou, there are still many guests, the key is that the threshold is low, the name sounds elegant, but it is a green building frequented by the peddlers and pawns, and the girls are not as good as the girls in Chunmanlou, but we can't stand it, we have no money, and it makes no difference if the lights are out.
As soon as Yu Shaobai came to the door, he saw two ...... with heavy makeup Woman? He thought he was dazzled, at first glance, isn't this body type and appearance a pure man?
"It's really rare for such a little brother to look more beautiful than my spring flowers."
Hearing this, the corners of Yu Shaobai's mouth twitched a little, eldest sister, surpass you...... Is it hard?
"Little brother, don't be stunned, look at your face, it's the first time you've come." While speaking, Yu Shaobai was already pushed in by the second daughter.
"Two sisters, don't worry, listen to me, do you have an old beggar here?" Yu Shaobai stood in the lobby and looked around, but he didn't see the figure of the old beggar Then again, it's been a few days, if he is really in trouble, I'm afraid it's too late, and I don't know if the three people continue to follow him, and if he can't find them, what should Ah Lian do?
"Old beggar? We have everything here, so naturally there are beggars. ā
Hearing this, Yu Shaobai frowned slightly, and looked up at the wooden doors on the second floor, where is the old beggar?
And in the bamboo forest outside Shuiyue Fang, Master Jing Fan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, heard the footsteps in her ears, slowly opened her eyes, and saw a familiar figure, with a look of surprise on her face: "Bian Zongren!" ā
"Yu'er, don't come unharmed." Standing in front of her was the old beggar.
Master Jing Fan didn't see Yu Shaobai's figure behind him, and asked, "Where did the young man go?" ā
"He should be in Shuiyuefang now, but he hasn't lived up to the old man's expectations."
Master Jingfan, who bowed his head and was silent, stood up too violently, with a cold face: "It turns out that you deliberately lured me by leaving eight characters behind the young man's back, what?" You killed my father back then, and now you're going to kill me? ā
Hearing this, the old beggar showed a trace of loneliness on his face, he could see the killing intent in those eyes, he had hugged her when he was a child, and now he has become an enemy, this time he directed and acted in a play, so that Yu Shaobai mistakenly thought that the masked woman was the old beggar's rival, but he didn't know that the two women and one man were actually his subordinates.
"Who are you listening to when you say this? It was the court that killed the eldest brother, how could it be us. ā
"Hmph~ You think I'll believe your rhetoric, you three brothers are greedy for life and afraid of death, ungrateful, even if God doesn't condemn you, you won't die well!"
The old beggar smiled faintly, "You have been practicing kung fu hard in the past few years, presumably just to seek revenge on me, this time I tricked you to come here because I told you something, the old man doesn't want to fight with you." ā
"What can you do!"
"Do you know why the old man is here in Lanxi County?"
Master Jing Fan showed suspicion on his face, he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, and how did he know why he was in Lanxi.
"What the hell do you have to say?"
Bian Zongren replied: "The reason why the old man came here was because he was ordered by General Ye to come to Lanxi County to find a young man. ā
"Young man?" Hearing this, Master Jing Fan saw Yu Shaobai's figure appear in front of her eyes.
"You must have guessed that it was the young man who brought you to Lanxi County."
"Why is Ye Dexin, that guy looking for this young man?"
Bian Zongren said in a low voice: "The general asked me to find him and send him back to the capital, hoping to make up for his mistakes." ā
Hearing this, Master Jing Fan looked suspicious and whispered, "Want to atone for your sins? ā
The old beggar nodded slightly.
"How do you know this boy is the one you're looking for?"
Bian Zongren took out a portrait from his arms and unfolded it in front of her, "Didn't you feel a little familiar when you saw that young man's face?" I guess you won't forget what she looks like. ā
Master Jing looked at the woman in the portrait, and the picture from many years ago suddenly appeared in her mind, the woman in this portrait is indeed familiar, although it was only a moment, she understood what it means to be a country and a city, and if you look closely, Hao Nan'er and that person's appearance is very similar.
"Although this Hao Nan'er is very similar, it doesn't mean that he is the person you are looking for."
Hearing this, the old beggar sighed helplessly, "It seems that you still don't believe it?" If you go to his house, everything will be clear. ā
"What do you mean?"
ā¦ā¦
Yu Shaobai walked out of Shuiyuefang with a helpless face, how can there be an old beggar in Shuiyuefang, if you can't find him, your task can't be completed, what can I do?
"Pedal Pedal ~"
Yu Shaobai suddenly noticed the three figures walking into the tea shop on the side, his face changed slightly, and when he saw the woman glancing at him, he walked into the tea shop.
"Where's my little sister!" Yu Shaobai asked in a low voice.
The woman whispered, "We came to tell you that your little sister has returned home safely. ā
Watching the three of them leave, Yu Shaobai was confused, didn't they use their little sister to blackmail themselves? I didn't find the old beggar, how could they let the little sister go?
Thinking of this, Yu Shaobai turned his head and ran towards the bamboo forest, saw Mrs. Shi sitting on the ground, and said urgently: "Mrs. Shi! I haven't found the old beggar, but I'll go home now. With that, he had jumped into the donkey cart.
When Mrs. Shi heard this, she slowly stood up and jumped into the donkey cart, "Poor Ni will go with you." ā
"Okay." Yu Shaobai didn't think much about it now, he just wanted to hurry back to Tushan Village, whether Ah Lian was okay.
Before the sun set, the donkey cart drove into Tushan Village, and the villagers who had returned from farming looked at the figures on the carriage with expressions on their faces as if they had seen a ghost.
Yu Shaobai came all the way to the door of the house, jumped out of the carriage, looked at the coffin at the door, and sighed in his heart, his face was a little pale.
He knocked on the door eagerly, but the door was not linked, he pushed the door directly in, and the sister and brother who were decocting medicine in the yard saw the figure rushing in, and sat on the ground in fright.
"Third brother, it's not the first seven, why did you come back?"
Hearing Ah Lian's words, Yu Shaobai was slightly stunned, the first seven? What do you mean?
"Ah Lian, it's okay if you're okay." Yu Shaobai walked towards Ah Lian, but saw the sister and brother crying, which confused him.
Mrs. Jingfan, who was standing at the door, knew in her heart that the reason why Bian Zongren, the old guy, directed and acted in this scene by himself, on the one hand, was to attract himself, and on the other hand, in order to take away Yu Shaobai, he would not attract the attention of others, so he hoped that Yu Shaobai would disappear in Lanxi County forever. Under the threat of Xiaomei's life, Yu Shaobai actively cooperated with this scene, left Lanxi County, went to Yucang Mountain, disappeared for no reason, and the villagers mistakenly thought that Yu Shaobai was missing, and they didn't see it for a few days, so they thought it was an accident, Bian Zongren's plan was very successful, and people who knew Yu Shaobai knew that he was dead, but she would not let Bian Zongren take Yu Shaobai away, even if it was a desperate life.
ā¦ā¦
"I'm dead?" Hearing Xiaomei's words, Yu Shaobai looked weird, could it be that the coffin outside was prepared for himself? Are the Yu family so caring?
"I'm not dead, the third brother is alive and well."
The two sisters and brothers looked at Yu Shaobai with suspicion, and finally the five little ones were bold, stepped forward and pinched Yu Shaobai, and said happily to the fourth sister: "Fourth sister, touch it, it's not an illusion." ā
Yu Shaobai was speechless, is it useful for you to pinch me?
"Third brother, are you really not dead?"
Yu Shaobai pointed to the ground, "You see, ghosts have no shadows, and the third brother has shadows, so they are not ghosts, they are living people." Yu Shaobai now feels that it is too difficult to communicate with children.
But this time his explanation was obviously more convincing, the sister and brother looked at each other, their faces were full of joy, and they all ran towards Yu Shaobai and pounced.
Looking at the two sisters and brothers who were lying on top of him and crying bitterly, Yu Shaobai sighed slightly.
