Since he had already gotten the other party into the water, the young man also stretched out his hand and said

"Brother Zhou, please."

That Zhou Ming also stretched out his hand.

"No brother, please!"

Then the two of them moved their chopsticks at the same time, raised their wine glasses at the same time, touched them and drank them all.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the young man was also a little drunk, slammed the table, and screamed.

"Brother Zhou. Let's move on to the above. ”

Because this Zhou Gongzi was driven away by the country and the city, that Gongzi brother, so the later paragraph of Zhou Gongzi did not hear it, and the young man could only start from the beginning.

"Words ........."

The young man said seriously, that Zhou Ming listened carefully, and after a while, some diners on the side also heard the story told by the young man, although they had not heard the beginning of it, but who didn't like to listen to the story, so they also listened to the story told by the young man while eating.

The young man did drink a little big, although he was conscious, but it was inevitable that he would be a little unfavorable when he spoke, and he ran away from it when he spoke, and he ran away from it when he spoke, which led to the laughter of Zhou Gongzi and a group of diners.

Feeling a little dry, the boy poured another big bowl of wine into his stomach, and then continued.

Time passed in the blink of an eye in the middle of the young man's story, and an hour passed, and the young man was really tired, coughed dryly, and then arched his hand to the group of diners around him, and said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Xiaosheng is a little tired, and now that's it, if you want to hear it, you can bring it in the afternoon."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Zhou Gongzi, who was sitting opposite him, and said with a smile.

"Brother Zhou, I'm sorry."

That Zhou Ming was immersed in the big net of stories made up by the young man at this time, and after hearing the young man's words, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly waved his hand and said.

"Out of the way, out of the way."

After talking for more than an hour, these drinks and dishes were completely cold, and the young man had no intention of continuing to eat, so he sat there and chatted with this Zhou Ming again.

"I look at Brother Zhou's dignified appearance, and his shot is so generous, I don't think he is an active and unknown person in this Fengxiang."

That Zhou Ming, although he was also a little drunk, but his consciousness was also sober, and he did not answer the young man's inquiry, but asked rhetorically.

"Why laugh at the brother without a brother? Although his family background is extraordinary, he is still far from being able to do so compared to his brotherless! ”

He shook his head helplessly, as if what he said was true.

The young man's heart moved, and he asked suspiciously.

"What does Brother Zhou mean by this?"

Zhou Ming was also very puzzled when he saw the young man's puzzled look, and asked the young man.

"Brother Wu, don't you know the identities of the two girls who followed Brother Wu before... That's right! Why didn't the two girls who followed Brother Wu see them today? ”

Of course, the young man knew the identities of Xuan Jingtian and the others, but what did that have to do with him, touched his nose, and smiled awkwardly.

"That's... Brother Zhou, I took the opportunity to sneak out, and I asked Brother Zhou not to tell them. ”

They are naturally Xuanjingtian.

There was a flash of light in Zhou Ming's eyes, and then he nodded and laughed.

"Brother Wu, don't worry, since I have promised Brother Wu, I will never say anything about Brother Wu."

The boy hugged his fist at the other party, thanked him, and then said something that was not nutritious. That Zhou Ming also cooperated with the teenager and chatted with the teenager about some messy things?

Nearly half an hour has passed, and the two of them are reluctant to chat anymore, the young man is ready to hang out in Fengxiang City, and Zhou Ming also has his own things to do.

hugged each other's fists, and then walked out of the restaurant together.

When he arrived at the door of the restaurant, Zhou Ming seemed to have thought of something, took out a money bag from his arms, and said to the young man.

"By the way, since you are penniless, you can't be a brother anymore, I just have some broken silver here, no brother will take the flowers first, if the flowers are finished, just tell me."

The well-meaning young man on the other side didn't refuse, took the money bag, and said, how embarrassed it is.

The corners of Zhou Ming's mouth twitched slightly, embarrassed to take it, there was nothing wrong with what the young man said.

Arched his hand again, that Zhou Ming was also unwilling to stay here longer, turned around and walked into the distance, judging from the speed of leaving, this Zhou Ming is also a practitioner.

After separating from that Zhou Ming, the young man only felt refreshed for a while, so he stood at the door of this restaurant and moved his muscles for a while, looked in the direction that Zhou Ming left, and then turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

It's not even noon now, and it's still early in the afternoon, so... He wanted to take advantage of this time to visit Fengxiang City.

After coming for so many days, staying in that room and that restaurant all day, it suffocated him.

Humming an inexplicable song, taking a relaxed and pleasant step, step by step, he walked and walked along this Fengxiang Street, walked and walked.

Inexplicably, the young man walked to the backyard wall of the Qi Wangfu again.

looked at the backyard wall of the Qi Palace, and then turned around and left without the slightest nostalgia.

Qiwang's Mansion was not far from the restaurant, so within a few minutes, the young man returned to the door of the restaurant and continued to walk forward.

Another half an hour passed, and the young man was tired again, and sat in a teahouse.

With money in his hand, he naturally didn't care about the two copper coins, so he directly asked for a bowl of tea, and then tasted it carefully.

Needless to say, the tea in this teahouse can barely quench your thirst.

Just took a sip, and the boy just couldn't bear it, and he couldn't bear this kind of suffering.

Putting down the tea bowl and pricking up his ears, the boy listened to the conversation of the group of people resting in the teahouse.

"Have you heard? Last night, there was a fire in Songhe Tower, including the shopkeeper, a total of 23 people, none of whom survived! ”

"I didn't hear that, I lived next to the Songhe Restaurant last night, but I saw the fire with my own eyes, and it burned the Songhe Tower to ashes in an instant."

"If you tell you something that no one else knows, don't tell anyone else..."

"Hurry up!"

"Don't worry, my brothers will never say it to others."

"Well, I'll get it!"

"Hurry up!"

"Before the Pine Crane Tower caught fire last night, I vaguely heard screams coming from the Pine Crane Tower, do you think it will ......?"

"Listening to you say this, it seems that there is indeed some truth, it stands to reason that there is such a big thing in the city, and that group of soldiers should investigate it immediately. But when I passed by the Songhe Tower this morning, I found that the soldiers had moved the corpses away, and I didn't care about the rest... You say......"

Before he finished speaking, a loud shout suddenly sounded.

"What do you say, Songhe Tower was set on fire? A group of old men have nothing to do all day long, how can they chew their tongues behind their backs like those old ladies. ”

The boy turned his head to look and found that there was a table of five people not far from him, and four of them looked mysterious, apparently those previous discussions were spoken by these four people.

The other one is five big and three thick, and the last sentence is obviously what this strong man said.

The young man was frightened out of his psychological shadow by the strong man yesterday, and the first time he saw this strong man today, his body couldn't help but lean back, and he almost fell on the stool.

After his body stabilized, the young man stopped paying attention to those few people, picked up the teacup and drank the tea silently, thinking about the Songhe Tower in his heart.

Songhe Tower! It's quite familiar to hear the name, but I don't know where it is, just like hearing about the Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Spring and Autumn Period, and the Warring States Period, as well as seeing the two people who have fallen into the country and the city.

The boy felt that this might be an opportunity for him to recover from his previous experience, and without hesitation, he drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp, and then went to the table of the five people, took out a tael of silver from his bosom and put it on the table, and shouted to the teahouse owner.

"Boss, I asked for the tea money for these brothers."

After speaking, he looked at the five people who turned their heads and looked at him, showing a kind smile.

Four of the five smiled at the boy in return, while the strong man looked at the boy with a fierce look and slapped the table.

"Who are you? Why do you want to invite us to tea? ”

The young man was really startled by the other party's loud voice, took a step back, and then straightened his clothes, and said to the strong man.

"This strong man, I heard a few people talking about the pine crane tower in the same side, but I don't know what the pine crane tower is."

Including the strong man, the five of them looked at the young man in unison and asked suspiciously.

"This brother isn't from our locals."

The boy touched his nose and nodded, and said.

"It's really not, I'm from Bianzhou, and I came to Fengxiang to find my uncle in order to escape the war."

The five of them nodded clearly, and then the guy who lived on the opposite side of the Songhe Tower said to the young man.

"Songhe Tower, it's a restaurant, and it's also a little famous in our Fengxiang, but a fire broke out in Songhe Tower last night, and today it has turned into a pile of ashes."

The young man nodded and asked again.

"Then I don't know how to go to Songhe Tower?"

The five people looked at the young man with doubts again, and couldn't help frowning, and the young man asked where and what were you doing?

The strong man said.

"What do you ask Songhe Tower for?"

The young man couldn't stand the strong man's loud voice, and arched his hand again. Said with a sad look on his face.

"I heard my uncle say that he has a restaurant in Fengxiang City, which is called Songhe Tower, so I want to know if this Songhe Tower was opened by my uncle, if so......"

At this point, the boy began to whimper.

The dignified seven-foot man actually showed such a posture.

Those five people really can't stand it, especially the strong man, although he is five big and three thick, but his compassion is more overflowing than that of women.

At this time, I saw the young man show his posture. I almost took the boy into my arms and comforted the boy.

Although he didn't take the young man into his arms, the strong man still stretched out his fan-sized palm, patted the young man's shoulder, and comforted him.

"Little brother, I'm sorry."

How can the young man's small body stand up to the other party's big palm, he grinned when he was patted, and his shoulders were also patted high and low.

"This brother, it's the third brother who is reckless, and I hope the brother is not strange."

It was the mysterious fellow who spoke.

As he spoke, the guy stood up, came to the boy's side, and patted the boy on the shoulder.

The young man's frustrated expression suddenly stopped, and he continued.

"Fengxiang City is so big, there must be more than one called Songhe Tower, so I want to go and see it in the future."

As the words fell, the five of them looked at the boy with all their eyes full of pity and sympathy.

Eventually, the man who came to him replied.

"Since you want to be brother, then tell your brother below, and you are also repaying your brother's gift of tea."

Immediately afterwards, this person told the young man where the pine crane tower was.

It was relatively simple and clear, and the boy could hear it clearly, but the only thing that was a little unpleasant was that the Pine Crane Tower was a little far away, and it would take about an hour to travel with the boy's footsteps.

Although he was very hostile to that hour, in order to know his past, the boy could only declare war on this hour.

He thanked the five men, and then left the teahouse, walking here, here, and there as the man had told him.

After only three turns, the boy arrived at the street of Ding'an, where the Pine Crane Tower was located, and according to what the man told him, he only needed to walk south for a stick of incense to reach the Pine Crane Tower.

He didn't continue to hurry, and the teenager who walked for more than half an hour was really sore and numb, and he had to find a place to rest.

Glancing around, I noticed that there was a small stall selling chaos on a corner of the street.

Looking at the sun in the middle of the day, the boy estimated that it should be noon.

My stomach wasn't rumbling with hunger yet, but I was supposed to eat when I arrived.

Without hesitation, he walked towards the small chaotic stall.

The booth is really small, adding up to only three tables in total. And so it was placed in this corner.

At this time, there were already two people sitting at a table, one old and one young. Looking at the dress, it shouldn't be a rich family.

The owner of the wonton stall has dark skin and is not tall, giving people a sense of honesty.

The young man approached, found a table to sit down, and beckoned.

"Boss, bring me a bowl of ravioli."

The boss was looking down for something, and when he heard the boy's words, he greeted him, and then he came over with a bowl of hot wontons for the boy.

But when he saw the young man's appearance, he was slightly stunned, and then he came back to his senses, put down the wonton in his hand, and said.

"Childe, your ravioli."

The boy nodded politely at the boss, then picked up the spoon and began to eat.

What does this bastard say? Average, very ordinary, but the teenager ate another feeling, which was a warm feeling.

A bowl of wontons went down, and the boy shouted again.

"Boss, another bowl."

The shopkeeper glanced at the boy in surprise, but still served another bowl to the boy as he said.

By the time the second bowl was served, the old man and the young man at the table next to the boy had already finished eating, paid the bill and left. Now only the boy and the Chaos boss remained.

After another bowl of belly, the boy touched his belly, and he didn't feel full, but he didn't feel hungry either, so be it.

He took out a tael of silver from his bosom and put it on the table, and shouted to the stall owner.

"Boss checkout."

The boss came over and said to the boy.

"Childe, two bowls of wontons are a total of ten cents."

The young man pointed to the tael of silver on the table and said.

"One or two pieces of silver, no need to look for it."

After saying that, he got up and wanted to leave.

Who knew that he had just stood up and was pulled by the shopkeeper and listened to the other party.

"Childe, I can't help it, I can't help it!"

The owner of this wonton stall is just an ordinary person, where has he ever seen such a generous person as a young man, so he was already stupid at the first time, otherwise he would not have said something unwanted.

The young man was also happy when he heard this, and he didn't want to give the other party money, it was the first time he had seen him.

Breaking away from the other party's hand holding his shoulder, he shook his head and said.

"This old man, the wonton you made is the most delicious I have ever tasted, it can fully afford this tael of silver, if you don't accept it, uncle, it will look down on me."

As he spoke, he straightened his face, showing that he was very unhappy.

The hawker boss also hesitated after seeing the young man's appearance, he was an ordinary person, and one or two pieces of silver were basically enough for him to live for a month, of course, he wanted it very, very, very much, but he couldn't get by on his conscience!

Now that the young man said this, he was moved, but the traditional concept told him that he couldn't ask for this silver, and shook his head firmly and said.

"Childe, I can't take this money."

The boy was speechless, why is this guy so tough?

His eyes purred, then he nodded.

"Since you don't want to say it, uncle, then find money for me."

The hawker boss also reacted when he heard the boy's words, yes! If you don't collect it, you can't collect it, but you can find money.

I looked stupid, then nodded yes, turned around and walked towards his stall.

As for the young man, when the other party turned around, he ran quickly into the distance, and it was really rare for a good person in this world to be like him.

The speed of the boy was very fast, and it took more than ten seconds to disappear from the corner, and when the wonton stall owner found that he didn't have so much money to look for the boy, the boy had disappeared into this alley, leaving the shopkeeper alone to look at the empty alley, which was extremely strange for a while...!

The hawker boss looked at the two pieces of silver in his hand, and then looked around, to make sure that the boy had left or sighed, and blessed in his heart that the good man would have a safe life, and then came to his stall, and cautiously hid the silver in a mezzanine.

On the other hand, the young man who has not suffered does not care about the difficult life of ordinary people in this war-torn era, and he is walking leisurely on this Ding'an street at this time.

Touch this, look at that, and occasionally stop and watch for a moment when interest comes.

Just walked and stopped, the distance of the original half-burnt incense, the young man walked for half an hour.

Half an hour later, the boy finally came to the pine crane tower, looking at the pine crane tower that had really turned into ashes, and then looked at the shops on both sides of the pine crane tower, the young man patted his head, and finally knew what the pine crane tower was, isn't this the restaurant where he woke up?

I still remember that the shopkeeper of the restaurant treated him with an extremely bad attitude, think about what the man said before, in the Songhe Tower, including the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, the cook, and so on, all 23 people were spared, and they were all buried in the fire.

The young man felt that maybe the wicked had evil retribution, and shook his head, why is he so bad, it is more than 20 lives, he should feel sad and sad again.

But why is there always a sense of schadenfreude? Could it be that the boy is a bad person from the depths?
