Chapter 48: Entanglement
Hearing this, the little boy stretched out his fist that had been clenched, and then spread out his palm in front of the big man, revealing a small piece of silver inside, and asked with confidence: "This...... Is it enough to buy two candy men? ”
As soon as the big man saw the silver, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took the silver and said, "Enough, enough, you have enough money, you can buy all the sugar people here." Take your pick, pick your pick! ”
Hearing this, the little girl lost her reserve just now, reached out and picked it up, and finally picked a small bird-like candy man and smiled at the boy next to her.
Seeing this, the boy also smiled, and then he found that the big man's eyes were dodgy, and he found a few copper plates in his pocket, and then said with a smile: "Come, this is the money I found for you, you must put it away well, don't lose it!" ”
A sneer crossed his eyes, but the young man still pretended to be happy and took the copper plate, raised a smile, and said: "Uncle, you are really a good person, unlike the person we just met, so fierce, we just blocked his way, and then raised a big knife to kill us, it's terrible!" The boy had a worried expression, and the girl was very cooperative, looking panicked, as if she had been frightened.
Maybe it was taking advantage, the shopkeeper felt guilty, so he looked at the boy kindly, and said earnestly: "Recently, there have been a lot of outsiders in the town, who are fierce and vicious, and can also do martial arts, so you can stay at home when you are fine, don't go out casually, you know?" ”
As if they looked at each other, the boy asked again: "Those who know martial arts should be great heroes who fight violence and peace, why should they avoid them?" ”
"It's really a child, and the idea is so simple!" The shopkeeper shook his head and smiled, and then said, "You may not know that there is a famous person in our town recently, and it is one of the four princes, the son of Chuanxi!" Speaking of this person, it's really amazing, literary talent and martial arts are not a problem, and he is also handsome, which makes many girls to be married fascinated. However, recently this son got into trouble, because he stole the treasures of the Tang Gate, so someone from the Tang Gate came to the door and wanted to snatch the treasures. But the treasure of the Tang Gate is really attractive, so some small fish and shrimp on the rivers and lakes also moved their minds and followed up, wanting to steal things before the Tang Gate. Hey, a good town has been muddied by those people who are three religions and nine streams, and there will be no stop in a short period of time. When this time is over, you can come out and buy Uncle's candy man again. ”
Showing a seemingly innocent smile, the young man nodded and replied, "Okay!" ”
After the two children left hand in hand, the boy's smile gradually converged, and his expression was solemn.
Seeing his appearance, Zi Yao couldn't help but ask worriedly, "What's the matter, haven't we heard any useful news?" ”
Xiaobao shook his head and said, "The eldest sister doesn't like to have contact with the people of the Tang Sect, so we have to tell the news to the eldest sister quickly, and then decide to stay." ”
Listening to what Xiaobao said, Ziyao sped up her pace, thinking that she must not miss Baili Lan's matter.
When the two children returned to the inn, Bai Lilan was in a daze with a few jade pendants, thinking that these things were very familiar, but they couldn't remember what they were for.
"Eldest sister, we inquired about it!" Xiaobao rushed to Baili Lan's side first, and said to Bai Lilan as if asking for credit, "It turns out that the son of Sichuan Xi is here, and he is being pursued by the Tang Sect and other martial arts people because he stole something from the Tang Sect!" ”
Son of Chuanxi?
Bai Lilan remembered that day in the secret room of the Tang Gate, didn't she meet the son of Chuanxi? It looks like he was caught in the bag and got into trouble, so he was really careless.
After listening to Xiaobao's dramatic description, Baili Lan carefully put away the jade pendant, and then asked, "Where did you find out where people found out that there were flaws?" ”
"How so!" Xiaobao seemed to be insulted, raised his chin and said, "I'm very cautious, and we found out from an uncle who sells candy, and that uncle doesn't look like a martial artist. ”
With a cold smile, Bai Lilan raised her arms, as if she had heard a very funny joke, looked at Xiaobao sideways, and said, "People have chased after them, and they have not found flaws?" I don't think you're still in the dark! ”
With his eyes wide open, Xiao Bao hurriedly ran to the door, opened the door vigorously, and just saw a person standing outside, so he asked vigilantly, "Who are you, what are you doing standing at our door?" ”
The person on the other side seemed to smile, and said to the little man, "I'm here to visit this girl in the room, I don't know if the little boy can borrow it?" ”
Xiao Bao glared at the man and said dissatisfiedly: "Dengzi, who will believe what you say!" You must have seen my eldest sister look good-looking, so you will follow here? I'm telling you, my eldest sister won't take a fancy to you, you have died of this heart! ”
Xiaobao's random speculation embarrassed the man, and he looked at Baili Lan, thinking that she would stop her brother's cranky thoughts, and then come forward to explain and clear up the misunderstanding between them. But the man found that Bai Lilan had a smile on her lips, and she was completely looking like she was watching a good show, and it seemed that she didn't plan to explain the misunderstanding.
Seeing that the eldest sister didn't say a word, Xiaobao was more sure of his thoughts and decided that this man was a flower thief, because he liked his sister's appearance, so he stalked him. However, in Xiaobao's heart, the only candidate for a brother-in-law is Nangong Jingchen, so no matter how good other men are, Xiaobao will not identify with them and let them stay close to the eldest sister!
Thinking like this in his heart, Xiaobao pushed the man hard, shouting as he pushed back: "Dengtuzi go away, Dengtuzi go away!" ”
Qiu Shichang, who heard the sound, also opened the door to look outside, and when he saw the man wearing a hat, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly walked out and looked up and down.
The man was full of anxiety, seeing that there were more and more onlookers around him, and Bai Lilan didn't even say a word to himself, let alone let himself go in the door to hide for a while. There was no way, the man had to force his way in first, so as not to be seen as a monkey by others!
But before the man could move, he heard a call from the side.
"Chuan ...... Son Chuan? ”
Looking sideways, the man with the hat, who was also the son of Chuanxi, looked at Qiu Shichang vigilantly and asked, "Who are you?" ”
Respectfully raising his hand to salute, Qiu Shichang replied: "In the next autumn Shichang, I had the honor to see Gongzi in Jiangcheng last year. ”
Qiu Shichang?
Gongzi Chuan Xi frowned and thought for a moment, and then asked suspiciously, "Are you Lord Beiningqiu?" ”
Hearing Chuan Xi Gongzi mention this name, Qiu Shichang lowered his head with some shame and said: "I am no longer a Qiu master, but a grass person." ”
Gongzi Chuan Xi nodded with a little understanding, understanding the meaning behind Qiu Shichang's words, and at the same time knowing the reason why he was here at the moment. However, the strange gazes of the people around him still made Chuan Xi Gongzi feel like a man. Looking sideways at Baili Lan, the woman sat on the chair peacefully, still looking like she was watching a good show, and she didn't have the slightest intention of inviting herself in, so Son Chuan Xi had to say to Qiu Shichang hatefully: "It's not convenient to talk here, I'll talk to Brother Qiu another day." ”
Qiu Shichang thought that it was inconvenient for Gongzi Chuanxi to speak, so he didn't do much to keep it, but after greeting Gongzi Chuanxi, he beckoned to Qiu Ziyao in the room and said, "Ziyao, come back first." ”
After a pause, Chuan Xi Gongzi found that Qiu Ziyao came out of Baili Lan's room, and guessed that Qiu Shichang and Bai Li Lan were also familiar with each other, his eyes rolled around, and he suddenly changed his mind, and smiled at Qiu Shichang: "I suddenly remembered, I left a bottle of good wine in my room, I don't know if Brother Qiu has time, let's talk about wine?" ”
Faced with the invitation of Prince Chuanxi, Qiu Shichang was flattered, and after entrusting Ziyao to Qiushuang, he went to Gongzi Chuanxi's room. Coincidentally, the son of Chuan Xi lives downstairs in Baili Lan, and the three of them are not far from each other.
Looking at the two people who were still a little strange just now, and now they are like brothers going to drink together, Xia Yu said strangely: "Men's thinking is really strange, looking at their appearance, it should be the second time they meet, they are as familiar as brothers." If you are more familiar with each other, don't you have to wear the same clothes? ”
"What's so strange about that," Baili Lan said nonchalantly, "women can bend each other's arms to go shopping for the first time, it has nothing to do with the length of time they have known each other, it only depends on whether they can give each other what they want." ”
What Bai Lilan said was a little profound, Xia Yu didn't understand, and frowned, unable to think of a reason. And Baili Lan also has something to figure out, she is very curious, Son Chuan Xi is obviously carrying a hat, why can Qiu Shichang still see his identity?
This kind of question also bothered Chuan Xi Gongzi, and after three rounds of drinking, he asked: "Brother Qiu, how did you find out my identity when I was upstairs just now?" For the convenience of walking the rivers and lakes, I always carry a hat, unless you have a clairvoyant eye, there is no reason to find out my identity! ”
After Qiu Shichang drank, his face would become red, and his eyes would be a little tired, giving people the impression that he was honest and very reliable. Qiu Shichang laughed first, and then said, "Because...... Because of the smell of Chuan Xi Gongzi! ”
"Taste?" Chuan Xi Gongzi hurriedly raised his arm and sniffed it, thinking that there was no unpleasant smell.
Looking at the actions of the son of Chuanxi, Qiu Shichang hurriedly smiled: "It's not the smell of the body, but the smell of grass on the child's body." Childe may not feel it, but you're the first person I've ever been able to smell the grass on my body. So, even if you can't see Childe's face, you can guess your identity. ”
I see......
