Chapter 156: Where to Stay, Isn't It Heavenly Luck? (2-in-1)
A young swordsman in a navy blue shirt walked slowly down the road.
The eyes are out of focus.
Zhao Kuo has become famous since he was a child, and among his peers, there is almost no defeat, but he suddenly encountered such a big impact, and after saying goodbye to Li Yinxiang and the two, the whole person was a little depressed.
The famous knife in his right hand, Lu Xiu, suddenly seemed to be less sharp.
The mind is even more mush, the afterimage of the knife is constantly replayed, each time more and more aggressive, each time more domineering, only to walk forward in a daze, but I don't know where I am, and when I unconsciously stopped, I found that I didn't know when I had arrived in front of the master's door.
Zhao Kuo raised his head, saw the word Huangfu with strong strokes, smiled bitterly, I don't know if I should go in, just one person walked out, hurriedly, saw Zhao Kuo, sighed softly, stopped and smiled:
"Why is there a sharp aura outside my Dao Gate, it turns out to be Senior Brother Zhao, and he suddenly came here today, is he going to visit the third uncle?"
Zhao Kuo's eyes cleared, first he returned the salute and called Senior Brother Huangfu, but then he didn't know how to explain, nodded, shook his head again, made the man laugh, and said:
"What's wrong, this look? Come on, since you're here, let's go in and visit the third uncle, speaking of which, you haven't been here for a few days. ”
Zhao Kuo had a look of shame on his face, and finally nodded, seeing that the man's expression seemed to be a little hurried, he said strangely:
"Is there anything important about Senior Brother Huangfu's trip?"
The man chuckled and said, "What else can happen?" Naturally, it is a matter of fighting in the rivers and lakes, only three or four days from today, my emperor has added the names of the four major families, and naturally there are more and more things, even us, and there is a lot less time to practice knives. ”
"Hey, it's Huang Fuxiong, a bastard boy, it is estimated that he knew the news early and hid far away, the eldest brother repeatedly sent letters to urge, but he ran faster and faster day by day, and hid farther than day by day, so he had to stop."
"If you continue to urge it, I'm afraid you will have to rush out of the border and run to the northern regions."
Zhao Kuo was stunned and said:
"Is there nothing the head of the Huangfu family can do?"
The man in front of him didn't seem to be annoyed, and said with a smile:
"No way, no way, there are more people in the world who can't take their sons, and there are no less than him, this time even my sister-in-law is annoyed, isn't it different that he didn't come back? Hahaha, this kid, cowardly in the letter, cowardly and cowardly, cowardly every time, but running without ambiguity, sincerely admitting his mistakes, and not changing his life. ”
"Hahaha, that's all, and a little bit of the Huangfu's style!"
"As for the reason, although the four great families are not the same as each other, they can be regarded as having some contacts, this time the rivers and lakes are fighting, once in ten years, even the Dongfang family seems to be coming, although the Xiahou family is in the south of the Yangtze River, but in any case, it is far from the Dongfang family."
Zhao Kuo's face couldn't help but look a little strange.
Sure enough, the man in front of him shook his head and sighed:
"The Xiahou family was originally scheduled to be the young master Xiahou Xuan to accompany the head of the family here, but unfortunately, his body is too weak, a few days ago he vomited blood and fell into a coma, so he had to let his sister come over, poor and pitiful, my emperor Fuxiong was kicked by that girl since he was a child, and he hid in Qingfeng last time."
"I don't know which one spread the news, but I finally coaxed him to persuade him to come back this time, this is good, I ran further, alas, let me know, I will not spare him."
After saying a few words, Huangfu Guanhai raised his hand and patted his forehead, and said with a smile:
"Let's go, these idle things, when I have time, you and my senior brothers and sisters are drinking, and then talk carefully, if you delay it any longer and miss things, the eldest brother will not spare me."
Zhao Kuo crossed his hands and saluted, and said:
"Senior brother, let's go, I'll go in to see the master."
Huangfu Guanhai smiled and waved his hand, took the reins handed by the attendant, turned over the horse, knocked the horse's belly lightly with his heels, and the mount neighed twice, and then shot out.
Zhao Kuomu sent him away, retracted his gaze, and glanced at the famous knife Luxiu in his hand again, and the idea of not knowing how to meet the master rose in his heart, hesitated, or sighed, and paced like one.
At the moment, he was depressed, and this was the emperor's house, so his vigilance was relaxed, and he didn't even find the girl hiding on the side.
And when he walked away, the girl hiding on the side walked out, her eyebrows were quiet and delicate, it was the 'Yang Shaoxia' who was pulled out by Li Yinxiang, but at this moment, she had already faded from men's clothes and changed into a goose yellow long skirt.
A pair of shearwater autumn pupils looked curiously at Zhao Kuo's walking direction, and said lightly:
"Mr. Zhao? How did he get here......"
"Are you here to find the third grandfather? Strange ......"
Behind him, with this delicate little girl, he pulled Huangfu Qiuyang's clothes and said, "Miss, aren't you going to pick up Miss Xiahou?" ”
"Ahh......h
Huangfu Qiuyang came back to his senses, and no longer thought about why this disciple surnamed Huangfu came back again, lifted his skirt slightly with both hands, and a pair of pale blue embroidered shoes ran lightly, and after walking out of the gate, there was already a carriage waiting there.
After the two entered the carriage, they immediately urged the coachman to hurry up, although Xiahou Jie was one of the principals of the Xiahou family this time, but for such a big matter, it was naturally impossible for her to be the only one to come forward.
The four major families, every ten years, the head of the Xiahou family will come in person.
It's just that this friend of hers has been extremely out of character since he was a child, and only then did he fly the eagle into the Huangfu family, and she knew that Xiahou Jie was only a few dozen miles away from Tianxiong City, and at the speed of a fast horse, it would only take a quarter or two to arrive at the gate of Tianxiong City.
After the carriage started, Huangfu Qiuyang saw the scenery outside and quickly retreated, his heart settled down a little, and then he couldn't help but complain slightly, if it wasn't for the incident in the inn today, she would definitely have to finish a meal with Li Yinxiang, and then go to Lefang, and then come back, at that time, wouldn't it be too late?
For more than ten years, such a fiery temperament has never changed.
As if sighing helplessly, Huangfu Qiuyang suddenly saw the little girl on the opposite side with her hands on her cheeks, her bun face was slightly bulging, and she seemed to be a little unhappy, so she reached out and flicked the latter's forehead, and said:
"What's wrong with the way you look?"
The little maid puffed out her face and said:
"Miss Xiahou is here again......"
"Every time she comes over, the second young master runs away, the slave and maid haven't seen the second young master for a long time, and the number of times she sees Miss Xiahou every year is more than the number of times she sees the second young master."
Huangfu Qiuyang smiled, and was about to make fun of the little maid, but his eyes saw a familiar figure from the side of the car, or rather, he first saw the thin horse that was as red as a flame, and then he noticed the young man in black sitting on the stall.
I was slightly stunned in my heart, and I was curious that since this swordsman could not even look at a thousand taels of silver, he immediately compensated the shopkeeper, who was naturally worth a lot of money, and even liked to eat at a roadside stall.
Could it be that these roadside vendors are really that delicious?
At this moment, the carriage approached, and she saw clearly that although the other party's body was straight, his expression was as calm and indifferent as before, but he only had ordinary white flour dry cakes in his hands, and a bowl of crystal clear water in front of him, and his face couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
In her last vision, she saw the domineering and arrogant young man chewing seriously.
The carriage had already run past.
Miss Huangfu blinked those beautiful eyes, confirmed several times, and did not dazzle her, and a thought inexplicably appeared in her heart.
Could it be ......
Is he actually poor?
……………………
Wang Anfeng took a sip of water, then slowly threw the last piece of white flour cake in his mouth, refused to let go of the crumbs on his fingertips, and then drank the last water very seriously, the clear water, the surrounding aroma of meat, mixed with the simple and thick taste left by the grain in his mouth, poured into his stomach together.
Feeling the solid white flour being blistered in his stomach, Wang Anfeng suddenly thanked the traveling merchant he saw when he was dealing with the Qiqi problem.
"After the bubble swelled, it was really full......"
He got up and took out some copper plates from his bosom, stacked them neatly, and placed them on the corner of the table.
Immediately turned around and led the thin horse out, the corner of the shopkeeper's mouth twitched, and he didn't even say the words of the customer walking slowly, and then looked at the table, the dry cake was crispy, but there was not even a little bit of cake crumbs left, and the end of the bowl was not wiped with the rag, and it was clean enough to pick up customers.
It's also a little cleaner......
He muttered helplessly, picked up a few copper plates on the corner of the table, Daqin Tongbao was real, but it was smooth, and there was still a little red on it that couldn't be wiped off, he rubbed his thumb on it, frowned, turned around and shouted:
"Guest, guest, no, why is there red on your Tongbao?"
Wang Anfeng's footsteps paused slightly, looked at him sideways, his expression was cold, his voice was calm and powerful, and said:
"It's rust!"
The shopkeeper suddenly realized, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said:
"Sorry sorry, guest, you walk slowly......"
Wang Anfeng came back sideways, walked forward, the shopkeeper threw the copper coin into the cash cabinet, suddenly felt that something was wrong, slapped his head, and shouted: "No, the patina is green, why is it red?" It's not blood, hey, guest? ”
He turned around, and the young man in black, who was still there just now, had disappeared.
……………………
Wang Anfeng walked out quickly, raised his right hand, and touched the empty piece in his arms, the ten hidden weapons that were placed in his arms before, now there is only the last one, a certain feeling of steadiness disappears, and his heart is inexplicably a little melancholy.
There is no way.
He pondered it in his heart for a long time, and now he still has a little silver on his body, if one or two silvers are exchanged directly among the people, it is always one hundred yuan, and if he makes a special trip to Daqin's money village to exchange, according to the fineness, he can exchange it for two hundred yuan to three hundred yuan.
That's not a small gap.
However, he has to find a place to live next, it won't take too long, he doesn't plan to miss the major events in the northwest rivers and lakes after four or five days, after all, the matter involves Huangfu's family and the White Tiger Hall, so it is reasonable that he has to be at the scene.
Well, just a random inn.
Half an hour later......
When Wang Anfeng walked out of the inn expressionlessly for the fifth time, he finally found that he seemed to be in trouble......
Because he miscalculated one thing, that is, the meaning of the title of Xiongcheng in the northwest of Great Qin, and the significance of the Jianghu Conference, the soaring price of the inn.
As we all know, most of the people in the rivers and lakes are not bad at money.
Wang Anfeng had previously set aside some of the silver according to the price of the inn in his mind, and the rest was in the big wilderness village, giving many victims as a coil, and there were only a few taels of silver left on his body.
The rest of the money was enough for him to spend a month elsewhere, but for a period of time he could only sleep in the worst room with people, and only for two or three days.
Wang Anfeng took out the money bag, weighed it, and then put it into his arms silently, raised his eyes to look at a lush tree not far away, and seriously thought about the possibility of sleeping on the tree in winter, and how to avoid the criminal guards who patrol at night to prevent being regarded as a thief.
At this moment, the thin horse next to him suddenly neighed twice, Wang Anfeng retracted his gaze, comforted the horses, and saw two people running from the mouth of the alley, one of them was in front, his footsteps were very smart, and he was running wildly, but the one behind was a fat man, while running, he was out of breath on the ground, and shouted heartbreakingly:
"Money! Oh my darling! ”
"Here, stop me!"
Bandit?
Wang Anfeng's expression remained unchanged, and when the bandit rushed over, he grabbed his right hand, grabbed his wrist, and then used a slight force, using the most basic small grappling hand in Shaolin, and the man immediately screamed in his mouth, fell to his knees, and couldn't stand up.
The bag in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
It took a long time for the fat man in the back to 'move' over, pounced forward, kicked the man viciously, and then picked up the money bag on the ground, and scolded while kicking: "You rabbit cub with no eyes, do you dare to touch anyone's things?" ”
"Don't inquire about where Lao Tzu was when he was young, huh?! See if I don't kick you to death! Let you steal! Let you steal! ”
Before Wang Anfeng could see it, the fat man stopped panting, holding his back waist with his right hand, looking at the appearance, the beating person was much more tired than the beating, and after a while, he remembered to thank Wang Anfeng, and a few passers-by next to him were familiar with each other, and the thief was arrested and sent to the criminal department.
The fat man carefully put away the bag, wiped the sweat that was constantly oozing from his forehead, and said: "Oh, thank you for this hero's shot, otherwise you have to let this little thief run away, although this thing is not a particularly valuable thing, but in the next terms it is much more important than silver, and you have to kneel on the washboard if you throw it back......"
His voice paused slightly, coughed lightly twice, and then said:
"By the way, look at Your Excellency, it doesn't seem to be a local?"
Wang Anfeng was looking up to see which tree would be more comfortable to sleep on tonight, so he didn't answer.
The reason why I didn't go back to Shaolin Temple, first, in the northwest Xiongcheng, is where Sima Cuo, the first person of the Great Qin Soldier Family, is not in Tianxiong City at the moment, and second, the Huangfu family is one of the four great families, and there must be a real master master in the family, so he needs to be cautious.
As for the last reason......
If you go back to Shaolin Temple like this, in front of Mr. and Master, it will be too embarrassing, not successful, not successful, or sleeping on a tree.
He subconsciously shook his head slightly.
The fat man next to him suddenly rejoiced: "Huh? Doesn't the benefactor have a place to settle down in this Tianxiong city? Exactly, exactly! It's just a yard here, and if the benefactor doesn't dislike it, why don't you live there......"
After saying that, he directly reached out and grabbed Wang Anfeng's cuffs.
Wang Anfeng was stunned, a trace of confusion rose in his mind, but the man in front of him did not feel malicious except for enthusiasm, for people who had been hostile, he could start without scruples, but for this kind of familiar northwest man, it was really difficult to deal with, so he had to avoid it with his palm, and said coldly:
"Not necessarily."
The smile on the big man's face froze slightly, and then he sighed, his face collapsed, and he muttered: "Yes, a useless man like me, you definitely can't look down on the hero, so naturally you don't want to go and see ......."
He quietly glanced at Wang Anfeng and sighed heavily:
"What's the point of me living like this?"
Wang Anfeng couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.
After about half an hour passed, Wang Anfeng still appeared in front of a small courtyard, with the thin horse following behind, and the fat man in front, his eyebrows and eyes flying, quite happy.
After introducing the layout of the courtyard one by one, he handed the key directly to Wang Anfeng, and patted his heavy chest, indicating that Wang Anfeng was his benefactor, and he could live as long as he wanted.
After a while, the fat man said that there was still something to do, and he had to leave, Wang Anfeng rubbed his eyebrows, and looked at the house, not only was the layout quite simple and elegant, but even the back kitchen was equipped with rice and noodles, he just had to buy some vegetables, and he couldn't help but be suspicious.
It's natural, but isn't it a bit too coincidental?
Is there really such good luck?
Well, no matter what, don't let your guard down, but you have a place to live.
Wang Anfeng sat on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
After the fat man left the courtyard, he walked quickly, like an ordinary person in a hurry, and after turning several times, he flashed sideways into a room, and his movements were obviously not really any martial arts, otherwise it would be impossible to hide from Wang Anfeng.
In addition to him, there were several people in the room, it was the thief and the few passers-by who escorted the thief to the criminal department, the look on the fat man's face became calm and powerful, and he nodded at the few people who got up and saluted, and said:
"Just leave it to me."
Several people looked at each other and saluted and dispersed.
Leaving the gorgeously dressed fat man, he was inexplicably excited, paced left and right, went out again, bathed and changed clothes, scented his hands, and then entered the inner room, knelt on the ground, looked very solemn, kowtowed to the ground, and said respectfully:
"Tell the envoy that the task arranged has been completed."
There was a cold man standing in the room, tall and thin, like a green bamboo, with a sword at his waist, wrapped in the cold cold sky of winter, he just nodded lightly when he heard the words, and said hoarsely:
"Well done."
The fat man was inexplicably excited, and before he could speak, the gloomy man was like a wisp of green smoke, disappearing, showing a very clever light technique, the fat man sighed, and all that was left in his heart was regret.
The man appeared hundreds of meters away, turned around and glanced at the fat man, raised his hand slightly from no one and leaned over, and said softly:
"Sir, the mission is over."
Shaolin Temple.
The middle-aged scribe rubbed his eyebrows, responded casually, and then 'volleyed' to see Wang Anfeng spread his arms, lying on the bed on all fours, holding the quilt and rolling a little, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the smile had not yet unfolded, and when he noticed the Taoist priest who was coming, he immediately raised his hand to drink tea.
The moire cuffs hung down, covering the corners of his mouth, and his voice was as usual, with a hint of mockery, and said:
"Heh......"
"Fool who gets bogged down in the quagmire."
