Chapter 249: The Battle of the Xianghe River (3)
Immediately next to each other, in the open space of the Spring and Autumn Guard camp, there was a commotion. One soldier after another, gearing up, as if he was watching something.
In the middle of the clearing, Zhao Jian was holding a wooden stick and fighting with a big man holding a wooden stick. Suddenly, the wooden stick in his hand stabbed forward heavily, hitting the big man's throat.
Dahan stopped, threw the wooden stick in his hand, and saluted Zhao Jian: "Admitting defeat in the next place, at a young age, you have such a ability." It is worthy of the prime minister and Mr. Liu, a proud disciple."
"Concession ......". Zhao Jian looked at the big man and bowed in return. I wanted to be polite, but when I saw him turn into the crowd from the new, he immediately stopped talking,
Suddenly there was a wail from the crowd, and one by one they began to complain.
"This kid looks like Sven, but I didn't expect the kung fu in his hands to be unambiguous."
"You lost cleanly, and you took pity on our money."
"A tael of silver, my flesh hurts to death......."
"You only have one tael of silver, and I have lost ten taels."
"If you find out, I'll buy this kid, I've played 20 games in a row, and I can still win every game."
"What wins, he and the dealer win, we lose, we can't even afford pants".
“……“。
Qi Huaiyuan carried his clothes, looked at the silver inside, and smiled. Following the example of Jia Fu's philistine, he smiled at the crowd like a blooming flower: "Everyone, everyone, my Brother Jian said, as long as you can defeat him." And he took out a hundred taels of silver, and gave it to the winner. I don't know if you're on it."
"Still? Who are you fooling? It's been 20 rounds, and you can see who has won."
"Although one hundred taels is tempting, this kid is too treacherous. If someone goes on here, there will be a gambling game. As a result, we lost, and it was a miserable."
"I can see it, these two boys. One can fight, the other can do business. This prime minister really deserves to be the prime minister, which is really a good means."
"You don't talk nonsense, after the prime minister's teaching. Even if it is an elm pimple, it should be enlightened."
"Come on, if they don't have that qualification, the prime minister will teach them?"
"Losing to the prime minister's disciples, we are not wronged."
"If you don't play, this is a gambling game that you will lose, just don't watch it."
"Yes, yes, since we have already received the teachings of the prime minister's disciples, let's disperse."
"Yes, yes, yes...... Scattered, scattered......".
One soldier after another, they dispersed. Walk in an instant, clean.
The smile that urged Huaiyuan suddenly froze. Hurriedly shouted at the soldiers who were far away: "Don't run, let's continue to ......."
As soon as these words came out, the soldier was like a frightened bird, and the speed of running increased by a few points.
Zhao Jian walked over and patted Huaiyuan's shoulder: "How about this time, I'm as you wish."
"It's a pity that they ran too fast, it's all money." Qi Huaiyuan turned his head to look at Zhao Jian, and sighed exaggeratedly.
Zhao Jian seemed to be smiling, and looked at Qi Huaiyuan with a look of wealth obsessed: "You are really deep, Brother Fu's true biography, if he sees it, he may be happy."
"That's because I'm so smart that I can learn everything quickly in nature." Listening to Zhao Jian's praise, urging Huaiyuan's heart, he was happy as if he was singing.
Zhao Jian looked at the silver in his clothes and pointed with his finger: "Huaiyuan rich man, do you just tap it to see how much hard work I have paid."
"Okay, I'll take stock now...... It was a total of five hundred taels, and in exchange for gold, it was fifty gold." Qi Huaiyuan sat directly on the ground, sprinkled the silver he was carrying in his clothes on the ground, and began to count.
Zhao Jian thought of five years ago, Jia Fu's father, because of the experience of owing money, sighed with emotion: "Uncle Jia, because of borrowing money. Under the profit, it became dozens of taels. Unable to repay, he was forced to go to prison. But I didn't expect that five years later, with the effort of this meeting alone, I actually got five hundred taels. It's amazing to think about what happened in life."
"If it weren't for what happened at the beginning, Uncle Jia and Uncle Liu wouldn't have gone to Jiangling Mansion, and what about me, getting to know Brother Jian." Qi Huaiyuan is naturally clear about this matter. At this time, when I heard Zhao Jian mention it, I also felt a little emotion in my heart.
Zhao Jian diverted the topic, looked at the silver spread on the ground, and a smile crossed the corner of his mouth: "You look like this, if you are seen by Brother Fu, you are afraid that you will die on the road to the army."
"Don't ...... Other...... Come with me and put all this money away." Urging Huaiyuan to be a spirit, as if vigilant, looked around. Finding out that Jia Fu was not there, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. hurriedly faced Zhao Jian and asked to clean up together. If Jia Fu sees him squandering money like this. I'm afraid it's not the road to joining the army, it's as simple as that.
The two of them began to pack up together, and after placing the silver, they beckoned to the back.
Yihun walked over with a smile and saluted the two: "Two little boys, what are your orders?"
"Uncle B, just call your name directly, we are all so old, so we are still little boys?". Urging Huaiyuan to feel a headache, this title was forcibly arranged by Uncle Jia. Poor self, who is almost an adult, was actually added a small word.
Yihun smiled and explained to the two: "You disciples of the dead son, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate not to call the little son."
"Uncle Yi should call his name, after all, I am an adult, and Huaiyuan has only been a matter of the past few years. As for the inappropriateness, then let me go and talk to Brother Fu." Zhao Jian thought about it, this title did sound a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that the two insisted, Yi Hun looked embarrassed: "Okay, it's not in the two...... Both, what do you command?"
"Uncle B, can you help us get this silver and get the tent." Qi Huaiyuan pointed to the pile of silver underground.
Yihun nodded, picked up the silver from the ground, and walked directly to the tent.
Zhao Jian watched Yihun go away, and sighed slightly: "Uncle Yi has been on the battlefield, and I heard that the fight was very happy when I was in Lingzhou in Western Xia. Originally, I thought that this time, under the leadership of Master Zhou and Uncle Xiao Sheng, I would be able to fight the most glorious battle. But I didn't expect that along the way, there was something wrong with it."
"Who said no, countless fantasies, under the leadership of these two masters, go into battle to kill the enemy. At least one fight, no less than the one in Lingzhou that year, Liu Sheng. Ay...... I now understand that sometimes there are too many powerful people and they are also distressed. Because there's no us at all, nothing." Urging Huaiyuan to show a bitter gourd face, if it weren't for the overall idleness and nothing to do. Why bother to have a bad idea, let Brother Jian compete, and start the game by himself.
When Zhao Jian thought of this, he was also bored: "Hey...... There's nothing to do, but he listens, a decisive battle is about to break out, and he doesn't know if there is anything to do with us."
"It's difficult, an army of hundreds of thousands of people, where can we have our share. Ay...... I'm going to war, I really want to go to war......". Urging Huaiyuan looked like a bitter gourd face, and kept complaining back and forth.
Zhao Jian was upset for a while, and then began to wander around in the open space. The battlefield may be just a luxury for himself and Huaiyuan. At the beginning, my mother agreed, I'm afraid it was also because of Uncle Xiao Sheng. Make sure you don't let yourself go to the front. I can only stay here, in the base camp.
