(17) Xiao Fugui and the roster
Daoyou Continental Human Circle, East County and Wharf Town, Fugui Inn.
This corner of the human world, the original folk customs are simple and sparsely populated, just because they are in the waterway pass, and the main roads connected by multiple canals have also become lively, and merchants will stop here when they go south and north. The owner of this inn, Xiao Fugui, was an ordinary down-and-out family, and he studied for a period of time, but his parents left one after another, and he had to be an apprentice to make snacks, and then he was a small stall owner for ten years. Although he is the boss, he does not have the momentum of the nouveau riche after years of hard work, and the old customers and neighbors affectionately call him Xiao Guier.
Don't look at this nickname is immature, Xiaofu is almost in his prime, but for some reason he has not yet married a wife. Neighbors and friends all helped Zhang Luo, but they were all rejected by Xiao Fugui one by one, and no one mentioned it again after a long time. On the night of the moonset in the west, Xiao Fugui closed the door and proofed as always. Suddenly, there was a dense sound of footsteps in the alley, like the sound of chasing. Sure enough, after a while, a roar came: "Zhenyuan, don't be caught yet!" Xiao Fugui squinted through the crack in the door and followed the sound, only to see a black shadow passing by, like a black cat. Then the brigade carried torches and lanterns, and the bright silver sabers reflected in the moonlight firelight, which looked hideous.
Finally, the sound disappeared, and Xiao Fugui was about to leave when suddenly a black arrow flew in through the side crack of the door, which frightened Fugui. He saw this black arrow-like object fly into his arms, and when he took it to see, it was a thin tube that was a few feet long. At this moment, there was a note attached to it. Xiao Fugui looked at it with a fan, "I saw the letter to the west, looked for the green mountains and the real people, the world in broad daylight, and saved the fire and water of the human race!" He thanked him day by day, "There is only one special cat head."
Xiao Fugui looked at the clouds, he could understand a few words, driven by curiosity, he carefully poured out the contents of the tube, and looked closely at the neatly folded roster, Xiao Fugui twisted a page with saliva and read it silently, his face changed from confused and curious to dignified, and finally frightened, his pupils dilated rapidly.
Xiao Fugui gave up suddenly, he quickly looked around, and immediately closed the door tighter, and used a bench to hold it up. After doing all this, he gasped for breath, trying to force himself to calm down. There are hundreds of names densely recorded on this roster, and he doesn't know much about it, but the first line at the head is the first one, and it turns out to be the current imperial capital Zaifu, the crown prince and young master's Feng Yixiao! This prime minister covers the sky with one hand, and his henchmen are all over the world, doing all kinds of evil. At that time, the saint tolerated it again and again, and heard that the immortals in the cultivation realm wanted to intervene, but he was stopped by this Shousuke's self-cutting arms and killing several so-called "culprits", this matter was announced to the world, and the diners at the dinner table, after the tea had been mentioned, and he also knew.
He thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be a few very special names on the roster that were circled in red. He took another cautious look. "Akamatsu . . . Real person, demon barbarian tyrant...., Demon Brake Sea ..... "After reading, Xiao Fugui's face is already like a black bean, and there is still a little bit of blood, but he is all caged by fear.
These names, no matter how you look at them, are all legendary aliens, and in connection with the actions of the first assistant of the current dynasty, even if Xiao Fugui is mediocre and stupid, he can understand what this roster represents. A huge black chain is across the head of their human race, the external trouble is not over, this internal worry is even more terrifying, although Xiao Fugui is a grassy people, but the truth is still clear.
As if he had made up his mind, he walked briskly into the room, and soon came out with a package of finely grained silver and a few pieces of clothing, and a kitchen knife.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Fugui still felt that it was inappropriate, and he rushed into the inner hall again, only to see that he brought back a pig's head meat, although the blood stains of the pig's head slaughtered this morning were dry, but the blood was still coagulated. He chopped up all the flesh of the pig's head and scattered it on the ground. There is a bench seat that is quickly skewed. A quarter of an hour later, he crept up the back wall and crept out. At this moment, it was late at night, the stars were approaching, and the leaders were all asleep, Xiao Fugui secretly walked along the alley to the suburbs, and he continued to comfort himself along the way. Fortunately, no one noticed him, Xiao Fugui looked at the night and counted the time, and couldn't help but speed up his pace......
.......
The imperial capital Zaifu Mansion, this smile is resting in the room with his concubine, he is sleepy-eyed, and his greasy big hands caress the concubine's lotus arms. Suddenly, a low voice came from outside his room: "Lord Shangshu is urgent." Feng Yixiao frowned slightly, snapped his fingers, and saw a parrot flying in from the window, holding a note. Feng Yi glanced at it, grabbed his right hand angrily, and the little concubine who was in pain exclaimed, "My lord...". Feng Yixiao was not in the mood to have fun with the beauty, he walked into the study, picked up the pen and wrote, "The roster is lost, let Luo Wang find it, Dongjun and the dock." After writing in a hurry, he bit the letter with his teeth, and it was printed with a special red mark. The parrot took the letter again and flew away.
.......
Yecheng in Xihai County is not large, with a population of about 10,000 people, but it is rich in tobacco leaves. The river flows into the city and the mountains, and near the suburbs, there is a very ordinary-looking tobacco restaurant. It is no different from the tobacco leaf houses in other places, but on the door plaque of this house, there is a small flower, I don't know if it was negligence or deliberate by the workers.
A young man in strange clothes walked in, and without waiting for him, he took out a token on his waist, and the man understood, and quietly lifted the curtain next to the door. The young man entered quickly, and inside was an old man with gray hair, who had been settling accounts as if he had not seen the comer.
The young man didn't talk much nonsense, and said directly to the old man, "Master Yu's secret order, why did you enter Dongjun?" ”
The old man didn't raise his head and said, "The relationship between the head and the assistant." ”
The young man's expression was slightly rippling, and he said, "Why? ”
The old man was silent for a moment, he narrowed his eyes, and said slowly, "It's a matter of great secrets, and there is nothing to say."
The young man said angrily, "Lord Yu's secret order! He spoke twice in succession. The old man shook his head and said slowly, "If the guest is fine, I will send the guest off." ”
The young man snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves away, and left a sentence, "Lord Yu is unhappy, and the consequences are very serious." The old man turned a deaf ear and continued to write and settle accounts. The youth left the smoke house.
After a long time, the old man seemed to have completed something, he stopped his pen, handed a letter to the man, and said, "Join the heavens, and send it to Qingshan urgently." Hearing the words "Heaven and Waiting", the man was agitated and quickly bent down to leave.
The old man sighed and said, "The human race is infighting, has the matter of sealing the remnants of the party fight come to this point?" ”
