He stood on the city wall for a while, until his hands and feet were cold by the wind, and then he wrapped himself in a brocade canopy and walked away slowly.

"Miss, you haven't eaten for a day, in the restaurant in front, there is your favorite roast duck, let's go home after dinner." Seeing that I had been silent, Luzhu whispered a temptation.

After she mentioned it, I felt that I was hungry, so I nodded in response. I went to buy a men's dress to change into, and applied the medicine of the Eighth Prince, but the scar on my forehead was a little, but there were still large red marks left, so I had to buy another hat and put it on.

After packing up, the letter walked to the restaurant, ordered delicious food, and ate slowly.

I ate this meal very slowly, and it didn't take until it was too late to settle out.

The autumn wind rose, the lanterns on both sides of the downtown swayed, I suddenly remembered the riddle of the day, at this time it was close to Shen, I went in the direction of the flower street, I wanted to see the people who were out of the union.

"Hey! Childe, you're here. Xiao Er greeted me from afar, nodded and welcomed me into the store, and then said regretfully, "Guest officer, why did you come, the guest officer who came out of the union yesterday came, and waited from Shen Shi until closing." ”

I said, "Something happened yesterday, and I can't get out, but he is here today?" So I went upstairs to meet him. ”

Xiao Er shook his head and said, "Hey, this son, you're late." The guest waited for the hour yesterday and then left. This morning he sent a message saying that there was something at home and that he could not stay long. He also said that the two of you are very fated, and he will definitely see each other again one day. ”

"It's easy to say, in the vast sea of people, where will you meet." ”

The little second also nodded, and echoed, "Who said it wasn't, but the little one thinks that you have some fate with that objective person, and the little one is also in the vast sea of people, and you can see the son at a glance, maybe you can meet again in the future." ”

"Maybe." I smiled.

"Oh, that's right." Xiao Er patted his head and said that he was objective, you wait, and then he pedaled a few steps and ran away, and after a while, he came back with a box, "Childe, this is the objective left, saying that when Childe comes, let you open it yourself." ”

This is a delicate wooden box with carved patterns on both sides and an eight-treasure lock in the middle.

I opened the lock, and inside was a ticket of 10,000 gold from Tongbao Bank, and a small piece of rectangular gold leaf.

The back of the gold leaf is carved with a few leaves of pine and bamboo, and the front is engraved with two lines of words in thin willow body: there is no phase inside, there is no general outside, and the jade will be destroyed as a last resort, what will happen in the future. The difficulty of the sky, the difficulty of the earth, and the measurement of the emperor in the chest, the amount is okay.

This is the lantern couplet I once blurted out, and the man has been carved into gold leaf.

In this way, the man probably didn't think the last graffiti couplet was good, and the reason why he really wanted to see me should be this lamp couplet.

That's interesting.

I smiled slightly, handed the box to Luzhu, and asked, "That person, do you have anything else to say to pass it on?" ”

Xiao Er shook his head, "There is no son, the guest officer doesn't seem to like to talk, the little one changed the tea for him, asked him if he changed the tea, he almost just nodded or shook his head, and the person who sent the box only said a few words." ”

I nodded, let the green beads reward a piece of silver, and then walked out of the door, Xiao Erqian thanks, his face was happy to become a flower, and he looked at me far away at the door, and called the guest officer, you often come.

I walked a little way out of the teahouse, and I wanted to go back to the general's mansion along the path, but Luzhu suddenly stopped me, "Xiao...... Son. ”

I turned around and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Luzhu hugged the box tightly and said, "Miss, otherwise, let's take the big road." ”

Her eyes were timid, worried. The first few times she walked the path, once she was robbed, and one time she was almost killed, she seemed to have fallen into the shadows.

Also, holding a box, it was too eye-catching, I looked around, and saw a big money village not far away, so I led the green beads to walk away. As soon as he entered the bank, he heard a commotion, and immediately after, a man was pushed out of it.

"Hey, we are a money village, not a place for young men to sell medicine, hurry up, let's go."

Pushing people is an old man, wearing a copper money robe, looking very charitable, although he is pushing people out, his mouth is also slightly bad, but his hands are not rude, almost half help and half coax people out.

The man who was pushed was wearing a coarse cloth shirt, a scarf, a slanted straw hat on his back, and a medium-sized gourd in his hand. ”

The old man seemed to be a little annoyed, shook his head and said, "If there is, I won't cure the disease, young man, go to another house to have a look, maybe they still want to be treated!" ”

The man was a little unwilling, and hurriedly choked and said, "If you can ask for money for treatment, you can spend ten taels of silver to buy me a pair of pills, and fry seven bowls of water into one bowl, and you will be cured of your illness after three days!" ”

"Let's go, let's go, there is no water or medicine pot in the money village, and you can't fry the medicine." The old man was really annoyed this time.

"Puff ......" The conversation between the two of them was interesting, and Luzhu couldn't hold back and laughed.

Seeing someone next to him, the old man stopped pushing him, and said, "Young man, don't make trouble, go to another house, I'm doing business." After speaking, he bowed to me, "The little boy smiled, please come inside." ”

I nodded, and was about to go inside, but the man stopped the way, and a pair of dark eyes stared straight at me.

"Oh young man, don't make any more trouble, this is two taels of silver, you take it and leave, don't scare the guests." The old man gave him the money, but he didn't take it, but just looked at me.

There was no way, the old man had to make a detour and lead me into the house, "This little boy, may I ask whether it is a deposit or a withdrawal?" ”

I motioned to Luzhu to hand over the golden ticket, and said, "I don't save it, I don't want to marry, I want to exchange the golden ticket for a silver ticket, I don't know if I can exchange it?" ”

The old man took the golden ticket, first verified it, and after verifying the authenticity, he hurriedly asked people to make tea for me, and then said, "Yes, yes, naturally yes, but the silver money in Yinzhuang has not been circulating much these days, and there are not so many silver tickets for the time being. ”

I nodded, "Naturally, you can." ”

In Xiqi, one tael of gold can be exchanged for eleven taels of silver, and ten thousand taels of gold can be exchanged for silver bills, which is quite a considerable amount, and it is normal to have no for a while.

"Okay, good, old decay, this will order someone to change." After saying that, he called the little servant, and said something on the side, and the little guy got his life and immediately ran out.

This time, the tea has been served, I took a sip at random, and I was curious, so I asked, "Shopkeeper, was that Lang Zhong just now?" Why do I have to heal you? ”

The old man smiled helplessly, and said, "Who knows who he is, half an hour ago, he walked at the door of the money village, and he kept staring at the old man, and the old man saw that he was dressed plainly, thinking that he wanted to beg for water and was embarrassed, so he called him in and made him a pot of jasmine tea." ”

"Who knew that this young man had drunk tea, and suddenly said that the old decay had become sick to the skin, and he would be afraid of it if he was not cured. Saying that he had to take ten taels of silver to buy him a pair of pills. ”

The old man has lived for fifty years, basically has never been sick, can eat and sleep, how can it be like he said. He explained for a long time, he just didn't eat oil and salt, so he had to buy his elixir. I couldn't help it, so I thought about pushing him out, but it made Childe laugh. ”

I smiled, this old man was red-faced, he didn't look like he was sick, that person was probably a charlatan, poor, looking at the old man's kind face, I wanted to bluff him.

The tea in Qianzhuang was good, I drank it slowly for nearly a while, and the little guy came back with a bag of things. The shopkeeper hurriedly walked over, took the abacus and counted it, checked the face value, and then handed me the silver tickets.

A gold ticket for a large handful of silver tickets, but it is not easy to take, just this money can be saved, I will store the large amount of face in the bank, take some small face value, and exchange some broken silver.

The autumn night came quickly, and when I walked out of the bank, it was already dark. What is strange is that the boy with the straw hat is still waiting at the door.

He leaned against the wall with his shoulders crossed, and when he saw me come out, he straightened up and looked straight over. Although the eyes were harmless, I didn't want to dwell on it anymore, so I called the green beads and left.

"Wait." He suddenly stopped me.

"But what's the matter?" I hesitated for a moment, then turned my head and asked.

He walked over, stood half a meter away, looked at me carefully for a long time, and then said, "You are sick! ”

"You're sick, your whole family is sick." Lu Zhu was reluctant and glared at him fiercely.

The young man didn't pay attention to it, but said to me very seriously, "You are really sick. ”

I was amused by him and said, "Tell me, where am I sick?" ”

He stared at me carefully, and finally shook his head, "I can't see it yet." It's like a poison that grows very slowly,"

"Isn't it, I need to spend ten taels of silver to buy you a pair of pills, boil seven bowls of water into one bowl, and drink it for three days?" Green beads are not ridiculous.

The man shook his head, handed me a pill, and said, "The old man in the house will have a serious illness in seven days, and he will return to the west in ten days. He doesn't believe me, and I want you to do. ”

I looked at him carefully and saw that his eyes were clear, not like he was boasting, so I hesitated for a moment, but still took the pill.

He nodded and asked, "Have you been dreaming lately?" Dry mouth? ”

I shook my head.

He asked, "Do you feel a burning pain in your eyebrows?" ”

I shook my head too.

"Strange." He frowned, then took out a red porcelain bottle from the cuff, handed it to me, and said, "I can't see what kind of poison this is for a while, you take this thing, from now on, take one every six months, within five years, you will be fine, if it is poisonous, you will come to me." ”

I laughed and said, "Five years from now, if I'm really in trouble, where will I go to find you?" ”

He also smiled, "In five years, you will find me." ”

I smiled again and asked, "Is this bottle of medicine also ten taels of silver?" ”

"My medicine, how can it only be worth ten taels, you can take it first, the silver money, you will definitely have a chance to settle."

After saying that, he pulled his hat and put it on, turned around and walked into the downtown area, and after a while, he disappeared.

"Miss, this man is so strange. This medicine can't be fake, right? ”

I unscrewed the cork of the red bottle and sniffed it, and a strange medicinal fragrance diffused out, which was very pleasant. After a little hesitation, he finally tucked it into his arms.

"Lu Zhu, let me pay attention to the boss of this money bank in the past two days, if he has anything, tell me immediately."

"Yes." Green beads answered. The two of us went back to the general's mansion.

As I walked, I noticed that something was wrong, a few feet away, there was a carriage slowly following, I was fast, I was slow, I simply stopped, and the carriage stopped.

Immediately after, the curtain of the carriage opened, and a familiar voice followed......

"Ha, what a coincidence."
