Chapter Forty-Nine: Laughing about Kyushu (Part II)
Shu'er smiled: "It's not just the bandits who are rampant, but also me, a black market vendor. ”
Both of them have tasks on their bodies, they try to hurry during the day, and stay in the hotel to rest at night, although they are in a hurry and in a hurry, they have three meals a day and are not sloppy. Shu'er has not been out for a long time, and has seen many new things, accompanied by a knowledgeable and talkative young master Zhuge , who can't help but give birth to the pleasure of traveling in the mountains and rivers. The two talked happily, and occasionally drank a few glasses of wine after dinner, and talked about Kyushu anecdotes.
Jincheng on the border of Chen Shu is already in the south of the southern border of Chen State, although it is winter, it is no longer cold and bleak. After the two of them had a full meal, they took a pot of warm wine, jumped onto the roof of the inn, and sat down to drink while looking at the Xiling Snow Mountain in Shu in the distance.
Full of wine and food, the scenery is pleasant, Zhuge calmly lay down, and said with a long sigh of relief: "When I traveled before, I was accompanied by my father-in-law, and we talked about everything. ”
Shu'er smiled and looked at Zhuge calmly with a comfortable face: "Only by chatting speculatively can you talk endlessly." I am honored to be able to walk with a well-informed and chic person like Young Master Zhuge . ”
Zhuge calmly looked at the bright young man sitting cross-legged on the side in front of him, suddenly sat up suddenly, put his face in front of Shu'er, stared at her eyes and asked, "Boss Yan, are you...... Really not a woman? ”
Shu'er was so frightened by him that her heart trembled, and her mind suddenly went blank.
Zhuge calmly approached very closely, and carefully looked at her delicate eyebrows, the two of them could hear their breathing, but Shu'er only heard the sound of her own heartbeat. No man's face had ever been so close to her cheek. What's more, it's such a terrible face that has topped the list of beauties in Kyushu. Shu'er was at a loss, Zhuge calmly snorted suddenly, and exclaimed: "This is the taste of Biliang and incense?" ”
Shu'er saw that he actually smelled the cool incense used on his body, his cheeks turned red, he turned his head to look at the Xiling Snow Mountain, and pretended to be calm: "Young Master Zhuge , you seem to be a little close to me, could it be that you are also a broken sleeve?" ”
Zhuge calmly saw that Boss Yan blushed, and poured a sip of wine in embarrassment, but choked on himself, coughed and said, "It's rude." ”
Shu'er smiled narrowly, thinking of how chic Zhuge calmly danced his sword on the ice lake that day, but now he was so choked by himself that he could even drink alcohol, he couldn't help but look at the long sword beside him, and changed the topic: "Even a person with mediocre martial arts like me has a good sword, Young Master Zhuge is so good at martial arts, why only use a mediocre-looking sword?" Could it be that it is a peerless sword that is deliberately eye-catching? ”
Zhuge calmly picked up his ordinary-looking long sword, handed it to Shu'er, and said, "Boss Yan, please look, this is an ordinary sword, I bought it on the streets of Linjiang." ”
Shu'er took a closer look at the sword, and sure enough, there was not even a patterned iron seal. "I didn't expect Young Master Zhuge of the richest family in Chu to be such a thrifty person."
Zhuge shook his head calmly and said: "It is said to be thrifty, but it is a false praise." Swords are rare, who doesn't love them? In fact, my father-in-law taught me not to use too expensive swords since I was a child. ”
"Why?"
"The Father-in-law said that the sword is a weapon, not an ornament. In your hand, be ready to unsheath your enemy, who is not entitled to be given the sword. Zhuge looked at Shu'er with a calm smile and said, "A person like Boss Yan who doesn't know martial arts probably needs a sword to match." ”
Shu'er pouted: "I also learned martial arts when I was a child...... It was only later that he wandered outside, and no one taught or cared about it, so it was abandoned. ”
Zhuge calmly patted Shu'er's shoulder and encouraged: "After a few days together, our friendship is not shallow." Boss Yan already has some foundation, if you are interested, I can order a few tricks for you to ensure that you will not have a problem walking alone in Xiling. ”
Shu'er asked, "I heard that Young Master Zhuge was able to sweep the Xiling bandits alone when he was ten years old, but is there such a thing?" ”
Zhuge calmly waved his hand and sighed: "The hero doesn't mention the courage of the year. When I was a child, I was naughty and reckless, but I offended Xiling's sect all over the place, and now I want to use them, and I don't have the face to see them. ”
"Before we meet the King of Shu, can Young Master Zhuge really give me a few tricks? I'm afraid that I will hold a sword, but my swordsmanship will be sparse, and I will make the King of Shu laugh. ”
"What's so hard about that? I will give you a little guidance to ensure that you do not show cowardice in front of the King of Shu. But then again, your sword in your hand is too eye-catching, if it weren't for me, I'm afraid your Meng Lin sword would have been stolen a long time ago. ”
Shu'er looked down at the two swords, and in comparison, the Huaiwang Sword was really extraordinary. "There seems to be some truth to what you're saying."
Zhuge said calmly: "I have encountered this kind of thing many times, so I have a deep understanding. When I was a child, I liked swords, but my father-in-law wouldn't let me carry them. Later, when I met someone who had stolen the sword countless times, I felt fortunate that I didn't hold the sword. ”
"Xiling has been swept away, the robbers who stole the sword, you can't beat it, why don't you take a sword you like in order to settle them?"
Zhuge smiled calmly: "That's true, but not every bandit I dare to fight!" ”
"What kind of bandits, so that Young Master Zhuge didn't dare to make a move?"
"King Wu Xie of Shu, do you think I dare to make a move?"
"King Shu? He stole your sword? Shu'er couldn't help but marvel.
"Yes, the King of Shu is the biggest bandit in Kyushu. I swept away his small bandits in the Xiling Mountains, he was not happy, a few years ago I was on the way back to Chu from Chen, passing through Shu, eating in a small restaurant before entering Xiling, and in the blink of an eye, the sword was stolen. I knew it was an extremely ordinary sword, and I didn't chase it out. ”
"Then how do you know that the sword was stolen by the King of Shu?"
"Because that old boy saw that he had stolen an extremely ordinary sword, and he actually came back to me in a rage."
Shu'er sneered.
He came back in a rage, threw the sword on my desk, and asked me why I was using such a broken sword, clearly fooling him. I saw the King of Shu when I was a child, and I naturally recognized him at a glance, and I don't understand why he is the King of Shu and wants to steal my sword. As a result, he said that he knew that I had traveled around the world with my father-in-law to compile martial arts classics. He stole my good sword, and he also avenged me for taking a pot of bandits in Xiling without his permission. But when he got out of the restaurant, he looked closely, and it was just a broken sword, which really ruined his reputation as a 'sword idiot', so he returned it. ”
Shu'er laughed: "King Shu is really interesting!" ”
Zhuge said calmly: "In Kyushu, there are many strange people. The King of Shu is like this, and I am also an eye-opener. ”
Shu'er was worried, "What if he steals my sword?" ”
"This Meng Lin sword, others will steal it, but he won't. Even if he steals it, he just looks at it and will give it back to you. He had great respect for Meng Lin, and the same was true for Meng Linjian. Unless you willingly give him the sword, he will not embarrass you. ”
