Retracting his gaze from the outside of the car, Xu Mingyuan took out the white tiger token from his waist and handed it to Wang Xusheng, who was sitting opposite him, and said, "Wang Xusheng, you can go south according to the original route, and meet again in Hangzhou in a month and a half." The White Tiger Token is left for you, and let them all go to Gangnam Province. ”

Seeing Wang Xusheng nodding his head, Xu Mingyuan asked Shi Zhu to stop, got off the carriage and walked to the post station on the side, where he had already prepared a jujube red horse, threw a piece of broken silver to the little er, signed the horse, turned over on the horse, and galloped away.

Since it is a trip to the rivers and lakes, it is naturally impossible to take a carriage and take Wang Xusheng and Shizhu together, which will be a little less flavorful after all.

The long shirt fights the sword, and the horse walks the rivers and lakes, which has a bit of the meaning of the rivers and lakes.

Wang Xusheng is the only person he brought on this trip except for Shi Zhu, after all, he wants to re-erect a cloud machine pavilion on the rivers and lakes, this matter is obviously a little difficult for Xu Mingyuan to plan alone, and it is a good choice to bring Wang Xusheng with him.

The matter of Qinglongfang is watched by He Hehe and Lu Yu, and there is nothing to do, anyway, there are Shangguan Yuting and Chen Qiao watching in Chang'an.

……

Twenty days later, ten miles outside Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, there was a tea shop facing the official road in the grove. Ten miles of road said that it is not close, people who have been running all the way here can see the prosperous Yangzhou city when they raise their eyes, and they are not in a hurry to go over, most of them will drink one or two cups of tea in this tea shop to quench their thirst, so the business of this tea shop with more than a dozen small wooden tables is good.

There were about 20 people sitting in this tea shop at this time, except for the two tables with open chests and loud talking masters, the rest were either low-key tea drinkers.

Three with long swords hanging from their waists, like young people who have just entered the rivers and lakes, sit next to them, drinking tea while listening to the words of those dart masters. Those dart masters were rudely talking about which Qinglou they were going to go to to find a good girl when they entered Yangzhou City, and compared them with each other, and let out a few laughs from time to time.

And at the table in that corner, there was a young man in a blue robe, and on the table was a cyan long sword, it was Xu Mingyuan, who had descended from the waterway to the south of the Yangtze River.

Listening to the words of those dart masters, Xu Mingyuan also showed a little smile, and looking at the three young swordsmen walking together, he felt even more interesting.

Look at the three people who don't look like people with strong martial arts, the tall and thin young man in the middle is about twenty years old, and the clothes on his body should be the son of a rich and noble family, and the clothes of the two young people of the same age next to him are shabby, which is quite a meaning headed by the tall and thin young man.

The so-called chivalrous man, after all, is not a fairy, and he has to eat, drink, and Lazar. Not to mention these young people who have no reputation and no real kung fu, they just relied on the breath in their chests, picked up the long sword and ran out to walk the rivers and lakes.

Even if Xu Mingyuan traveled to so many places, if he hadn't carried a few thousand taels of silver tickets in his arms, he wouldn't have to worry about eating, drinking, and Lazar, and now he would have to think about how to solve the problem of eating.

Before going out, I watched the chivalrous man in the book walking around the rivers and lakes with a sword, how happy and comfortable. When you go out, you stay hungry in your stomach, but that bit of arrogance will be gradually diluted by the water that fills your stomach.

On this journey south, Xu Mingyuan also saw a lot of young people walking the rivers and lakes, after all, he still had a sense of arrogance in his heart, and he couldn't do such a robbery with a few martial arts, but he was a little pitiful in this rivers and lakes.

This will soon be in Yangzhou City, Xu Mingyuan has not met any interesting people and interesting things, after all, the world is so big, although there are many people in the rivers and lakes, but there are few interesting people.

He was ahead of Wang Xusheng and them, firstly, because he wanted to walk the rivers and lakes alone, and secondly, he could avoid the flattery of those officials along the way.

Although the official position of the superintendent of the imperial history is not high, even if the assassin of a state sees him, most of them will be polite, after all, this assassin is outside, even if it is sent to Chang'an, it will take a long time, and most of them are not worth the one or two sentences of the supervising imperial history in the recital.

Xu Mingyuan drank two cups of tea, took out a few Tongbao from his arms and put them on the table, and wanted to leave, but at this moment, a sound of horses' hooves sounded, and he stopped in front of the tea shop.

I saw a snow-white horse parked in front of the tea shop, and a beautiful girl in a white dress fell on the horse's back.

The girl's figure is not tall, but she looks delicate and lovely, her long skirt is fluttering, not stained with a trace of dust, her skin is whiter than snow, her eyes are like a pool of clear water, and she is holding a silver long sword in her hand at will.

Throwing the reins of the horse in her hand to the little girl who came forward with a smile, the girl in white swept her eyes over everyone in the tea shop, and walked towards the position where no one was sitting.

"What a handsome little lady, why don't you come over and have a drink with the master, the uncle gave this tea money." In the table of the dart master, there was a tall and strong young man with a chest open and thick black chest hair, laughing, and his eyes unabashedly scanned up and down the girl in white.

When the dart masters at the same table heard this, they also laughed, although they didn't mean to do anything, but their eyes didn't have the slightest intention to hide it. Sitting on the right, the middle-aged man with a thick square face should be the dart head of this group of dart masters, although he didn't say anything to respond, but seeing him slowly drinking tea with a teacup, he didn't mean to stop it.

These dart masters were still talking about the women of Yangzhou Qinglou before, and they were on the rise, and they were naturally very moved to see such a beautiful girl at this time.

However, Dawan has strict laws and disciplines, in broad daylight, and next to the official road where people come and go, although these dart masters are fancy, but no one really dares to step forward, otherwise this dart board with the flag of the Yang family dart bureau will not be able to exist in Yangzhou.

The girl in white was in a good mood, but after listening to the words of the tall and strong dart master, her face turned cold, and the long sword in her hand was also clenched a little.

But before she could speak, the tall and thin young man sitting on the side had already slapped the table and stood up, looked at the group of dart masters, and said righteously: "In broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, you are in vain as a person who practices martial arts, but you are bullying a girl's family here, you can know the word shame." ”

"That's it, you apologize to this girl quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless." The other two young men at the same table also stood up suddenly, and one of them shouted a little restrainedly, but his eyes drifted to the girl in white on the side.

Xu Mingyuan, who was about to get up, sat back again, standing next to his face with his right hand, intentionally or unintentionally blocking his face, looking at the three young men who saw the girl as soon as they saw it, and the dart masters who had already cast their eyes on the three of them playfully, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It still takes strength to save beauty, otherwise the result will often not be as intended." ”

As for why you have to block your face?

That's because I met an acquaintance...... (To be continued.) )
