Chapter 418: Shouldering a Mission
Pei Heng saw that this strong man was so upright, there was a faint sadness in his eyes, and he thought that this strong man must be a good person, and then when he encountered any difficulties, he wanted to do something about him.
However, the strong man shook his head, looked at Pei Heng and said, "You can listen to the story if you want, but you must buy the discount treasure knife first, otherwise, everything will not be discussed." ”
Pei Heng shrugged his shoulders, looked at the strong man's aggressive look, and hurriedly smiled: "Since the strong man has to sell the treasure sword, we are willing to pay a thousand taels, I don't know what the strong man thinks?" ”
"A thousand taels? If there is Xi'an silver, it will be sold immediately. The strong man took out the treasure knife in his hand and put it in Pei Heng's hand: "But I don't want a silver ticket, and I can't be in arrears." ”
Pei Heng sighed and said, "A thousand taels of silver is not light, who will carry it with you?" You don't even want a silver ticket? ”
"I said no, that's no. If you have a silver ticket, please exchange it. The strong man looked at Pei Heng and said with a serious face.
Pei Heng took out a silver ticket of 1,000 taels, put it in Pei Shuo's hand and said, "Go quickly, exchange this silver ticket and give it to this strong man." ”
Pei Heng smiled: "I know, this silver ticket exchange, sometimes I have to ask you." You may have something you don't want to tell anyone, so keep it hidden. ”
Then he asked, "My brother has gone to fetch the money, can you tell us your story?" ”
The strong man sighed, looked at Pei Heng and said: "Young master, it's like this, I am a big family in Lanling, but the cultivated land in the house was inexplicably robbed by people who claimed to be Prime Minister Li, and they didn't give a penny of silver, and then our family had no land, and there was no livelihood, so they let me into the capital." ”
Zhang Jing looked at the strong man with his mouth open: "What did you say?" You didn't come to the capital to assassinate ......"
The strong man frowned, looked at Zhang Jing and said: "I am a rough man, but I am not brave and unscrupulous, that kind of thing is illegal and undisciplined, even if we win, it may not be that others support me." ”
Pei Heng nodded, then looked at the strong man curiously and said, "Strong man, are you going to go to the emperor's side to complain?" Then let the emperor come up and call the shots for you, right? ”
The strong man nodded, looked at Pei Heng and said, "Isn't it?" But now it is difficult to get rid of the yamen in the capital, and many times, you can't even do what you want to do, so you have to sell the treasure knife and use it in exchange for money. ”
Pei Heng smiled slightly, nodded, looked at the strong man and said, "The strong man is really bold, but have you thought about it, if you sell the treasure knife, what do you want to use to defend yourself?" ”
The strong man smiled slightly, looked at Pei Heng and said, "You don't have to worry about this." I'm going to sell the treasure knife, buy an ordinary simple knife, stay on my body, whatever, what do you think? ”
Pei Heng nodded, put away the treasure knife, put it on Zhang Jing and said, "Come, this is a gift from my brother, you can use it well, if this strong man wants to redeem it in the future, you can just look at the mood." ”
Zhang Jing took the sword excitedly, looked at Pei Heng, and said flexibly: "No, brother, I don't dare to ask for such a valuable thing, besides, I don't have much work on it." ”
Pei Heng shook his head, looked at Zhang Jing and said, "Don't do this, you use it first, and see if this knife is with you." ”
Zhang Jing then took out the treasure knife and made a few gestures in the air, fiddling with some of the routines he had just learned in Pei Heng's hands.
Because of the contrast of the treasure knife, and the color of this treasure knife is good, plus the weight is moderate, it seems to be able to speak in his hand, which makes it handy.
"It seems that you really don't know each other, you look at this treasure knife in your hand and it feels like it has life." The strong man looked at Zhang Jing and smiled happily.
Zhang Jing shook his head a little embarrassed, looked at Pei Heng and said, "This, this is really a waste in my hands." But if I get up to the level, maybe it's even better. ”
While he was talking, he saw Pei Shuo walking up from below with a large bag of luggage in his hand, putting it on the table and saying to the strong man: "This strong man, I have exchanged the silver you wanted." You count. ”
The strong man lit it up casually, looked at Pei Shuo and said, "It's still worth counting, leave a little for you to pay for the journey, and I'll thank you." ”
With that, he prepared to go back with the treasure sword.
However, he didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by Pei Heng: "This strong man, if you want to win this lawsuit, you might as well tell me, and I will help you collect evidence and bring that Li Kun to justice." ”
While he was drinking tea, he suddenly saw a tall man in a scarlet robe walk in. High-spirited, talking and laughing.
The shopkeeper was even more upset, and greeted him with a smile: "Master Li, don't come to be harmed?" ”
The tall man waved his hand, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Little Er, it's still the same, three taels of abalone, two taels of bird's nest, and a pound of beef!" ”
When the strong man who sold the knife heard this, he was stunned, looked at Pei Heng and said, "Order so much, are you done eating?" ”
Pei Heng hesitated for a moment, but he didn't expect Pei Shuo to say to the strong man bluntly, "He is Li Kun, who cares if you can eat it or not, or how much it costs?" ”
Pei Heng glared at Pei Shuo reprimandingly: "Save you from talking!" ”
He looked at the strong man, and there was a hint of pleading in his eyes, which meant that this was in public, but he must not act recklessly.
The strong man gritted his teeth, drank a bowl of wine, and then suppressed the anger in his whole body and said to Pei Heng: "Don't worry, Pei Gongzi, as the saying goes, you know yourself and your opponent will win all battles, I haven't understood what he is yet, and I won't act rashly." ”
Pei Shuo nodded, looked at the strong man and said, "Since this is the case, I am relieved." ”
I saw Li Kun looking at the dishes on the table, eating a few bites, and then calling the people around him to come over and say, "This is what Benxiang likes to eat, if you want to come and taste it." ”
Several young people walked over tremblingly, looked at Li Kun and said, "See Prime Minister Chitose!" ”
There were some errands in the middle, with some broken silver, and put them in Li Kun's pocket.
Pei Heng pretended to be a person who had come over, looked at the strong man and said: "Look at it, these people are good at doing things, Li Kun targeted your family like this, I'm afraid he didn't give him a gift, right?" ”
The strong man nodded, looked at Pei Heng and said: "Our family has always been upright, we have never accepted gifts from others, and we don't like to give gifts to others, how do you know the doorway here?" ”
Pei Heng sighed and said to the strong man: "That's right, Prime Minister, his wallet can naturally hold the boat." ”
Qiao Ying couldn't help laughing, looked at Pei Heng and said, "Doesn't this mean that the prime minister can hold the boat in his belly?" How do you say that people can hold boats in their wallets, you are so funny! ”
Pei Heng smiled, looked at the big cloth bag that the prime minister put beside him, and said with a smile: "I don't think it's enough to buy two ships with the silver in this." ”
Pei Heng nodded, pulled the strong man and said, "You go back, record your unjust cases and account books, and I think that sometimes, you will transfer it to the emperor." ”
The strong man was suddenly a little scared, and looked at Pei Heng tremblingly: "If that's the case, there are many henchmen under the prime minister, what should they do if they turn around?" ”
Pei Heng smiled, looked at the strong man and said, "Good guy, I was still indignant when I did it, but now I know that I am trembling?" You are a warrior, you have to show your warrior spirit, you must not be instigated at a critical moment, you know? ”
The strong man nodded, looked at Pei Heng and said, "What you said is not wrong, it's just that I'm not afraid of hurting the innocent?" ”
Pei Heng nodded, looked at the strong man approvingly, and said, "It is a great thing that a strong man can think like this." It's not that I'm afraid of the prime minister, but I feel that there are many henchmen around him, and sometimes I'm afraid that he will be a bogey."
Watching the prime minister swagger out of the restaurant after eating, the resentment in the strong man's heart almost filled the entire restaurant.
Pei Heng accepted the sword, looked at the strong man and said: "You go south and north alone, and there is no place to stay, or you will live in our villa for a while, and it can be regarded as a certain livelihood, how do you go?" ”
The strong man shook his head, looked at Pei Heng and said, "You and I met in Pingshui, and besides, I am responsible for the murder, I am afraid that I will harm you when I come to your village!" ”
Pei Shuo still wanted to keep it, but Zhang Jing spoke: "Why don't you go to the Qiao family's compound to live for a while?" Qiao's compound is different from other big families, it looks relatively low-key from the outside, and it can still survive. ”
The strong man shook his head, looked at Zhang Jing and said, "Forget it, since the treasure swords have been sold, my thousand taels of silver, no matter where I am, can live a good life." ”
Pei Heng saw that the strong man had made up his mind, and he could only keep it suddenly, so he nodded, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Then the strong man will wait for us to have good news, and when you take revenge, we will definitely return the sword!" ”
The strong man endured his grief, spit out a strong smile, and said to Pei Heng: "The eldest husband wanders the world, the four seas are his home, and when we get together in the future, we can only look at fate." ”
As he spoke, he grabbed a piece of meat, ate it as he walked, left the restaurant, and disappeared into the sea of people.
Pei Shuo bowed deeply to the departing back, and then sighed: "My dream when I was a child was to be able to wander the world like this hero." ”
Pei Heng looked at Pei Shuo with a sneer and said, "Just now such a good hero was in front of you, why didn't you say follow him?" ”
Pei Shuo touched the back of his head awkwardly, then smiled and said to Pei Heng: "This, because I just took care of the grievances of the rivers and lakes, as well as things like love and hatred, I actually forgot about it." ”
Pei Heng knocked in front of Pei Shuo's head indifferently: "Do you think that walking on the rivers and lakes is just for fun?" This river and lake also has rules on the rivers and lakes, and the rivers and lakes also have obligations that the rivers and lakes should do, so you can play and see if there is no money and money at that time? ”
Pei Shuo looked at Pei Heng with some embarrassment and said, "That's, that's, my brother's teachings are extreme." Looking at the poor knife seller, he sincerely wanted to go home and live in peace. Why don't we stop walking the rivers and lakes, learn from your brother, marry a wife, and then live for the rest of your life? ”
