Chapter Twenty-Eight: Looking for Death?
"Emei faction? Is there such a sect? Haven't heard of it. The sixth senior brother said.
The third senior brother also nodded.
Chen Hang didn't speak, but looked directly at the senior brother. The surprised expression of the senior brother just now obviously knew something.
The senior brother hesitated for a moment: "I once heard the master say that the Emei sect is rumored to be an immortal sect, and the sect is full of immortal disciples, which is very mysterious. β
"Senior brother in charge, that's all you know?" Chen Hang asked.
Senior Brother nodded and said, "Master also knows very little, let alone me. β
Chen Hang frowned, he believed that Senior Brother didn't lie to him, and there was no reason to lie to him at all.
It's just that such a little clue doesn't matter at all.
Chen Hang was silent there, and the atmosphere was a little quiet.
"Since the little junior brother is back, I am also relieved."
Senior Brother said a pretended word, and then said to Yang Ying: "Little junior sister, it's afternoon, we haven't eaten lunch yet, let's go and eat something." β
"Brother...... Senior brother in charge, there is no rice in the kitchen. β
Senior Brother frowned: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?" β
"I told you, you let the fourth senior brother and the sixth senior brother go out hunting this morning."
Hearing that he had forgotten it, the senior brother's face was a little unbearable, and he couldn't help but scold angrily: "You are still quibbling!" β
Seeing that her brother was angry, Yang Ying lowered her head in fright and didn't dare to say anything more.
The senior brother snorted coldly, and only then did he take out some silver from his waist that had been stolen from the disciples of the Five Tigers Sect and handed it to the sixth brother.
"Sixth Senior Brother, you and your little junior sister go down the mountain to buy some food and come back, and by the way, invite a doctor to go up the mountain to treat the fourth senior brother's injuries."
Chen Hang then remembered. There was also an unconscious fourth senior brother who was not present.
The sixth took the silver and said respectfully: "Obey." β
"Senior Brother in Charge!" Chen Hang suddenly spoke: "Now that the Five Tigers are eyeing us, the sixth senior brother and the little junior sister are going down the mountain, I am a little worried, why don't I accompany them down the mountain too." β
This is only half of the reason, the other half of the reason why Chen Hang wants to go down the mountain. It's to see if we can find out the news of the Emei faction.
Of course, the senior brother would not object, and immediately nodded in agreement: "It's okay, with the little junior brother here, I can rest assured." β
In fact, the senior brother also understands that where the current junior brother is going, there is no need to report to him, and he has no ability to stop the junior brother. What is rare is that the little junior brother has the guidance of the immortals, and he still respects him very much. The senior brother was very satisfied.
Then, the senior brother took out some silver and handed it to Chen Hang, asking Chen Hang to buy some of the things he needed.
This is a bit like currying favor with Chen Hang, but the means are a little naΓ―ve.
Chen Hang didn't refuse the kindness of the senior brother, if he really refused, I am afraid that the senior brother will be uneasy.
"It's getting late, so let's go now. Go early and come back early. β
ββββββββ
The hill where the Liuhe faction is located originally had no name. Because the Liuhe faction sits on this mountain, over time, this mountain is called "Liuhe Mountain"
Not far from the foot of Liuhe Mountain, there is a county seat, Anhe County.
A remote place like Anhe County, far from the Central Plains, is not large. There are not many permanent residents, less than 10,000 households, but Anhe County is quite prosperous in this generation.
Because there are many mountains nearby, there are many natural hunters. Every day, a large number of hunters flock into the county town to trade the prey skins they hunt.
Especially in the morning market, the villagers of various villages around Anhe County will come here, which is simply a sea of people, crowding a small Anhe County.
It's afternoon, and the numbers are better, but it's still lively.
On the streets, all kinds of shops and vendors are selling along the streets, and the sound of bargaining is endless.
As soon as she entered the county seat, the little girl Yang Ying, like a lark resurrected with full blood, was lively and active, and she was shocked when she saw anything.
"Senior brother, look, this bear's skin is so big......"
"Senior brother, it's villain candy!"
Seeing the young and lively little sister, Chen Hang's mood couldn't help but be happy.
In Chen Hang's world, at Yang Ying's age, she should be so happy, but she took on the heavy responsibility of the daily chores of the sect early......
When passing by a cloth shop, Yang Ying's happy figure suddenly paused.
Chen Hang's eyes were sharp, and he clearly saw that Yang Ying's eyes hurriedly glanced at the cloth shop, revealing a look of envy.
Yang Ying just glanced at it and continued to walk forward.
Although she has no scheming and is a simple girl, she is very sensible, knowing the current predicament in the sect, and even life is very difficult, so naturally she will not have spare money to buy her new clothes.
Chen Hang, who saw a qiΔ in his eyes, couldn't help but sigh and shouted out to Yang Ying.
"Little junior sister, wait!"
Yang Ying stopped: "Senior brother, what's wrong?" β
Chen Hang first said to the sixth senior brother beside him: "Sixth senior brother, you go buy food first, and we will gather at the city gate in a while." β
The sixth senior brother didn't know what Chen Hang was going to do, but since the junior brother was so capable of fighting, he was not afraid of any danger, so he nodded immediately and went to buy daily necessities alone.
After the sixth senior brother left, Chen Hang pulled the little girl and walked directly into the cloth shop.
"Senior brother, what are you doing?"
Chen Hang was too lazy to say, and replied domineeringly: "Don't ask more." β
As soon as I entered the cloth shop, a little girl came up to me:
"Guest, do you want to buy cloth? We have fine silk and warm cotton cloth, linen, silk, and fur. β
It was the first time for Chen Hang to go into the ancient store to buy something, and he didn't know what to say, so he directly pulled Yang Ying, pointed to the little girl and said, "The clothes she is wearing." β
As soon as Yang Ying heard that her senior brother was going to buy clothes for herself, she became anxious.
"Huh? IβI have clothes to wear, but I don't need them. β
The little second glanced at the old clothes on Yang Ying's body, which were still changed from men's clothes to small ones, and couldn't help but despise the pair of men and women a little in his heart, but on his face, he still had a polite look.
"If the senior brother gives you, you will keep it."
Chen Hang's tone could not be refuted, and he looked at the little guy again.
This little guy is a clever man. Immediately introduced: "Guest officer, do you want to order?" If you want to make it, please choose the fabric first, and then pay the deposit. β
"Aren't there any ready-made?"
"You mean ready-to-wear? Yes, of course, the guest officer is here, please. β
The servant took Chen Hang to another room, on the wall of this room. They all hung up made clothes, including kaftans, dresses, men's and women's clothes, and they were of different sizes.
Compared with the clothes stores in later generations, the clothes displayed here are messy, naturally not much beautiful, and more importantly, there is no habit of marking prices in advance at this time.
Looking at the dazzling array of clothes, Chen Hang touched the few taels of silver that the senior brother gave him. I can't help but feel a little lacking in confidence.
He didn't know the price, he didn't know the value of silver, and he didn't know what kind of clothes he could buy with this bit of broken silver in his arms.
The little guy has been doing this for a long time, and he has naturally developed a set of skills to observe words and colors, and when he sees that the guest has not chosen for a long time, he immediately knows that he is afraid of the guest in front of him. Shyness in the bag.
Thinking of this, the little guy immediately took the initiative to introduce some cheaper clothes.
"Look, officer. How about this linen dress? I can't help but be affordable, and it's warm to wear...... "I chattered and said a lot of good things."
After the little guy finished speaking, Chen Hang asked the question he wanted to know the most: "How much?" β
"This linen dress was originally priced at one or two or eight yuan, but this is the first time you have come, right? I'll give you a discount, a good one or two. We hope you will continue to visit us next time. β
Or?
Chen Hang didn't know if he had been slaughtered, but this price was still within his acceptable range, and he touched the broken silver in his arms, and estimated that there were three or four taels, so. Chen Hang chose a cotton dress.
As for the silk flower dress, it looks good, but it's a pity that he doesn't have to think about his money.
Chen Hang couldn't even afford clothes, Chen Hang couldn't help but be a little embarrassed (in fact, the ancient industry was simple, and good clothes were quite expensive), he thought to himself: It looks like he has to get some money.
The clothes were taken off, Chen Hang originally planned to find a place for Yang Ying to change them now, but the little girl didn't do it, so she carefully wrapped the new clothes, and even a corner was wrinkled, she had to smooth it out, and then hugged it tightly in her arms.
"Senior Brother......
Holding the new clothes, the little girl was so excited.
Everyone has a love for beauty.
A long time ago, Yang Ying thought about it and wanted to have a beautiful new dress, so that she would no longer wear clothes that her brothers didn't want. Unexpectedly, this wish came true today.
The great joy of the realization of the wish filled the little girl's heart at the moment, which directly made the little girl so excited that she couldn't find the north, and she couldn't even say words of thanks.
Seeing the little girl's happy face, Chen Hang was also a little happy, but he sighed more in his heart.
A piece of clothing can make the little girl happy like this......
"Let's go, go find the sixth senior brother."
Yang Ying didn't answer, and even said that she didn't hear her senior brother's voice at all, and at this moment, she was already imagining what she would look like in this cotton dress.
Chen Hang shook his head and smiled, pulling the little girl out of the store.
"Guest, welcome to come back next time."
The little guy sent the two of them out of the door diligently.
At this moment, on the other side of the street, people suddenly turned on their backs, and a burst of chickens and dogs jumped, attracting the attention of people on the street.
It turned out to be a magnificent carriage, galloping through the streets, rampage.
In the distance, the sound of whips and an arrogant shouting could be heard:
"Get out of the way, get out of the way for Lao Tzu! If you get in the way, you won't complain about it. β
When the sound reached this end, the pedestrians on the road were immediately startled and avoided one after another.
Chen Hang, who had already walked to the street, also grabbed Yang Ying in the crowd and squeezed back to the door of the cloth shop.
Watching the carriage driver drive away passers-by unscrupulously, Chen Hang immediately realized that this should be the son of a powerful man.
When encountering such a bully, pedestrians on the road dare not speak out, even if they are whipped up, they dare not speak up and avoid the aside.
Although Chen Hang couldn't get used to seeing such a scene, he didn't want to do much when he first arrived.
Soon, the carriage came to Chen Hang's side.
But at this moment, Yang Ying, who was beside Chen Hang, suddenly shouted: "My new clothes!" β
But just now, when the crowd was panicked and chaotic and crowded aside, the package she tied to her body was squeezed off the street.
Finding that her new clothes had fallen on the street, Yang Ying screamed anxiously and rushed out, wanting to pick up the clothes.
"Don't go over!"
Chen Hang was shocked and hurriedly grabbed it.
Fortunately, Chen Hang was fast and caught Yang Ying, otherwise this girl would still rush to the street, I am afraid that the clothes will be hit by the carriage before they are picked up.
With this little girl's thin physique, being hit by a carriage will definitely hurt her muscles and bones, and even her life will be in danger.
Without waiting for Chen Hang to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly "snapped" and whipped over.
"Dare to get in the way? Look for death! (To be continued......)
