Chapter Forty-Nine: Lujiang Wine Shop I
readx;?“ The lonely boat traces Xunyang, and the sun and twilight mourn my heart. The hills of the pen and the fun www.biquge.info pavilion are not reflected, and the clouds and haze increase in weight. The waves sounded fiercely, and the monkey ape wailed. The river breeze blows the clothes, and the white dew stains the clothes. I can't sleep all night, look up to the sky and think of the old people. The lonely goose knows people's intentions and makes sad sounds for me. There is no end to the future, and it is difficult to worry about it. This Xunyang River mourning was made by Yunmeng three days later to mourn Qingyao and Xiangnan. In just a few days, Yun Meng witnessed the death of these two people, one died of obsession, the other died of conscience, but no matter which of them, the most precious thing in the bottom of their hearts was kindness. Yun Meng can't forget the last words they said to themselves, that was the last flash of their lives, the so-called "people are dying, their words are good, birds are dying, and their songs are also mourning!" ”
Three days ago, when Qing Yao was dying, he told Yun Meng that Xu Hong had something to hand over to him, but Yun Meng didn't care at all, and before going ashore, Yun Meng found a small cloth bag from the cabin. After sending Qing Yao away, Yun Meng sat by the river for a long time, and suddenly remembered what Qing Yao had said. took the baggage, touched the bulging bag, I don't know what was inside, opened it gently, there were three small porcelain bottles in the baggage, opened the cork and a fishy smell of ginger wafted out, Yun Meng's mind flashed, and he immediately understood what Xu Hong meant, no matter what his intentions were, but the three bottles of ginger juice in front of him were the best antidote to the poison of Yunmeng's body for half a summer. It is very conspicuous, Xu Hong knows that Yun Meng is well versed in medicine, and he will know that ginger solves the principle of half summer, Yun Meng pinched his fingers and calculated, it was so dangerous, from the night he was poisoned, it was just three days now, if it was over three days, the poison of this half summer could not be solved no matter how much ginger was.
Since the antidote is in front of him, and he has to go to Qiaocheng to find Yin Yuan, Yun Meng must put his sadness aside for the time being, in fact, Yun Meng himself has not yet realized that with more and more experiences, more and more faces, Yun Meng's mind is no longer as fragile and immature as when he was fledgling, he has slowly strengthened in this invisible and huge whirlpool.
So Yun Meng swallowed the bitter water in his heart and the juice of ginger into his stomach, buried the tears in his eyes and the grief and indignation in his chest, dressed in thin and dirty clothes, identified the direction, and headed northeast. It is strange to say, this ginger juice is indeed right for the poison of Banxia, after Yun Meng only drank one bottle, he immediately felt that the numbness in his throat was almost half gone, and then he felt that his throat was itchy and unbearable, and after a while, he coughed up a large amount of black thick phlegm. Yun Meng knew that this was ginger juice pulling out the yin poison of Banxia. It's just that three bottles of ginger juice can only be divided into three days, and they must not be drunk all at once, otherwise it will be counterproductive. After taking it for two days, the itching in the throat gradually decreased, and the black phlegm also decreased, the key is that Yun Meng tried to make a sound, and he could actually speak in a hoarse voice.
In the cold season, Yun Meng walked on foot, and his clothes were thin, fortunately, the fishy ginger juice can not only detoxify, but also temporarily drive away the cold, the cold and the fatigue of the long journey Yun Meng can bear it, but Yun Meng has not eaten anything for two days in a row, but the hunger in the stomach is unbearable, and there is no half penny on the body, fortunately, the hook of the belt around his waist is jade, and he found a family to say vague words even with a belt, and finally changed a few steamed buns, but there is no belt to tie the waist, and it looks even more embarrassing.
Yun Meng inquired by the way, it turned out that he was in a mess, and actually walked to the boundary of Zongyang, although Zongyang is still under the jurisdiction of Jiangzhou, but it is close to the Lujiang River to the north, and the Lujiang River is actually some origin for Yun Meng. As long as you arrive in Lujiang, you should not be far from Bozhou Qiaocheng. So Yun Meng stepped up and continued to go north to the Lujiang River.
The three bottles of ginger juice have been consumed, and the poison of Banxia has also gone to the ten**, although the voice is still slightly hoarse, but it is no longer a problem to express and communicate. It's just that the food that was exchanged for the hook has already been eaten, and there is nothing on the body except the hosta left by the mother when she was dying. That hosta is so precious to Yun Meng, even if Yun Meng is hungry, he will never change it for food. Yun Meng tightened his belt hard, gritted his teeth and continued to hurry, thinking to himself, "At the moment, there are barren mountains and mountains, and when you get to the big villages and towns in front, if you think of a way, it really can't be done, you just beg for food and eat bark and grass roots all the way, and you have to rush to Qiaocheng." "But determination is determination, no matter how big the determination is, you can't control hunger, plus Yun Mengguang walked step by step with two feet, the soles of his shoes were worn out, the clothes on his body were dirty and wrinkled, and his hair was scattered, and he was a beggar. Pedestrians on the road are afraid to avoid this picture, but there are also a few kind-hearted people who gave their leftovers to Yun Meng, Yun Meng has tasted the warmth and coldness of the world since he was a child, and he doesn't care too much about such things, and more importantly, the belief in his heart supports him to persevere.
On this day, the weather suddenly improved, and the haze of many days also disappeared, Yun Meng walked on the official road with his head down, and suddenly smelled a strong aroma of rice, Yun Meng's wrinkled mouth couldn't help but drool, Yun Meng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shook his head with a wry smile, and sighed lightly and thought: "Who would have expected that I would encounter such a situation, and now, I will end up with a lack of food and clothing, and I can involuntarily drool when I smell the fragrance of rice." Although I thought so, my eyes couldn't help but look around, looking for the source of the fragrance. At a glance, it was found that there was a small wine shop on the side of the official road, but the wine flag outside the wine shop was more special, and the wine flag of other restaurants was either white or cyan, but the wine flag of this wine shop was all black, and there was no embroidery on it, it was a black flag. There was a large cauldron sitting on the fire next to the wine shop, and there were seven or eight layers of cage drawers on the pot, and it was steaming hot, and a young man dressed as a second child just opened the top layer of cage drawers and picked up buns outside, and it seemed that the fragrance came from here.
Yun Meng really couldn't stand the temptation of steaming, fragrant meat buns in front of him, but he didn't have any money. Anyway, in order to have the strength to continue on the road, I didn't know myself anyway, so I cheekily asked the store for one or two. So Yun Meng slowly leaned towards the side of the pot, and before he got close, the little second shouted to Yun Meng: "Go and go, go and go while asking for food, don't block my family's business." ”
Yun Meng hurriedly arched his hand and said: "I am a person in distress below, passing by here today, I am really hungry in my stomach, I ask the store if you can give me one or two buns, and he will definitely double it in the next day." ”
Xiao Er looked Yun Meng up and down, and saw that although Yun Meng said that his robe was tattered and his hair was scattered, he could see that this person had clear eyebrows and good appearance, and he looked like a knowledgeable person when he heard and talked, and after looking left and right, he pointed to the steaming bun, and said in a low voice: "Don't blame me for this, I won't give it to you, this bun is not for you to eat, you wait." After speaking, he turned his head and returned to the wine shop, and after a while, he took four or five white flower steamed buns out, handed them to Yun Meng, and said, "Take these steamed buns and hurry up to other places." ”
Yun Meng thanked him, but he was puzzled in his heart when he took the steamed bun, "This little second is strange, this steamed bun is not worse than that bun, why did he say such strange things?" Just thinking about a group of officers and soldiers coming towards Hulala, Yun Meng recognized at a glance that this was a person from the black camp in Beifu, and hurriedly turned around, and squatted in the corner.
I saw a small leader led by this team of officers and soldiers, walked to the wine shop, took out a portrait, handed it to Xiao Er, and asked horizontally: "Hey, have you seen this person passing by?" ”
Xiao Er saw that it was the official army who came, with a smile on his face, looked at the portrait, shook his head and said: "If you go back to the military master, the little one has never seen this person, but there are people coming and going on this official road on weekdays, maybe the little one has no idea or looks away, or you go to the store to rest first, I am asking if other people in the store have seen it?" ”
The leader of the official army looked at Xiao Er, said "um", and said: "Okay, anyway, it's time for dinner, smell your buns taste good, take a few cages to give grandpas a taste." Saying that, he greeted everyone behind him and walked inside, passing by Yun Meng's side, the little leader glanced back, but he didn't seem to see anything.
Xiao Er greeted the officers and soldiers to sit down, came out to bring the buns to the table, and saw that Yun Meng was still near the wine shop, so he stepped forward and urged in a low voice: "Hurry up, don't stay here, if something happens for a while, you won't be able to leave." After saying that, he returned to the store with the buns.
When Yun Meng saw the posture of this group of officers and soldiers just now, he guessed that this group of people was sent by Xie Ping to arrest him. It just so happened that Xiao Er said such strange words at this time, and Yun Meng guessed in his heart, "Could it be that there is something strange about this store?" It's just that this troubled water is wading or not? Forget that more is better than less, and the most important thing at the moment is to get to the city as soon as possible. It's better to be careless. Thinking of this, Yun Meng was ready to stand up and leave as soon as possible while others were unprepared.
But at this moment, three more people came from outside, led by a handsome white-faced young man, followed by a big black man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and the other was a thin man with a tall and thin body and a yellow complexion. Yun Meng wanted to hint to the three of them not to go in yet, but the three of them seemed to ignore Yun Meng at all, and went straight to the wine shop. As soon as Xiao Er saw these three, he immediately raised his voice several times and shouted: "The owner, you are back, there are still valuable customers in our store!" Yun Meng looked carefully, and the little second side blinked his eyes three times at the same time, as if he was passing on some news. Yun Meng was also secretly shocked in his heart: "It turns out that this wine shop was opened by Jiang Ying and them." But why are they here? ”
