Chapter 24: Another Visitor to the Moon
On this day, Wuzhi was practicing his martial arts, and Wei Wu saw that Wuzhi's martial arts had improved rapidly recently, and he also practiced his martial arts diligently with him. He also begged Wuzhi from time to time, wanting Wuzhi to teach him some of the amazing light skills. Just as they were concentrating on practicing, they saw Yinping running over in a panic.
What's wrong?, the two of them thought to themselves, seeing that her face was wrong. Yinping went down to the field to see the crops, their crops have been planted for a long time, under their careful care, now a green seedling has emerged in the crops, the three of them see that their labor has been rewarded, their hearts are extremely happy. Yinping is a farmer, since the seedlings unearthed he began to be busy, every day is either weeding or watering, anyway, every day in the ground.
Now Yinping is also running back from the field. The two of them quickly stopped practicing, greeted them and said, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"Hurry up and see, when I was in the field just now, suddenly I heard a sound bang, and when I looked for the sound, I found a man lying in the grass nearby, and now I don't know whether the person is dead or alive, I am afraid in my heart, so I dare not stay in the ground, you go and see." β
When the two heard this, they hurriedly took their weapons and followed Yinping to the outside. After a while, they reached the place where Yinping had found the man, and sure enough, as she said, there was a man lying there with his back facing the sky, and the man looked as if he was asleep, and there was no reaction after several people arrived in front of him. Looking at his outfit, he is quite glamorous, and his clothes are more exquisite.
What's the matter! Wu Zhi thought, this moon is so far away from the earth, why do people always come here? The last few times the three of them came, it was understandable, because at that time, they were all shocked by the skills of the two patriarchs and flew here, but now there are still people coming, so what is the situation, it can't be that the two patriarchs have been fighting until now, right? That is not available at all, because things have been going on for a long time.
Anyway, let's save people first, Wu Zhi thought, after all, one more person in this desolate place will have more strength, and it will be more lively than before. Thinking of this, Wu Zhi beckoned Wei Wu and Yinping to carry this person back to the Moon Palace.
After arriving at the Moon Palace, Wuzhi put the person on the bed, and then arranged for Yinping to cook porridge. At this time, I looked at the person carefully, and saw that this person was about fifty years old, gorgeously dressed, dignified, with a very rich face, a jade wrench on his thumb, and a short beard on his chin. Looking at his body, he also wore a sword, and the sword was also exquisitely crafted, obviously carefully carved and carved.
Wu Zhihe deliberately looked at this person's palm and found that his palm was thin and tender, and did not look black. Because of the great enmity of his parents, he developed the habit of observing the palms of strangers every time he met them, because his parents died under a strange poisonous palm.
Just as Wu Zhi was pondering, he suddenly heard an "ouch" sound, and only heard Wei Wu say: "I seem to have seen this person, he looks very much like the leader of the Silver Money Gang, and he has ten thousand taels." "Wei Wu was fortunate to visit the annual martial arts competition in the martial arts last year, because the leader of the Silver Money Gang is also a figure with a face in the rivers and lakes, so he has seen him at the conference.
"The leader of the Silver Money Gang is Qian Wanliang?" Wu Zhi seemed to have heard this name from his brothers when he was in the Goshawk Gate before, but he only knew that he was a rich man, so he looked like this. Thinking about it, Wuzhi not only glanced at the person on the bed again, but saw that his face was ruddy and his skin was white and tender, and he really looked like a rich man. He had heard that the Silver Money Gang was mainly engaged in silk and pawnshop trading, and the business was all over the country, and it was said that he still had business in the capital, and there were several luxury mansions in the capital alone. It's just that how he could suddenly appear here makes him puzzled.
Just as he was thinking, Yinping had already brought a night of hot millet porridge, Wuzhi lifted the person's head slightly, and Yinping fed the millet porridge spoonful by spoonful into the person's mouth. After feeding, Wu Zhi lifted his clothes, carefully examined his body, and saw that the man's injuries were not serious, only some minor skin injuries, knowing that he was fine, and he would be fine after resting.
Sure enough, not long after the porridge was fed, after a while, he only heard a gurgling in the man's belly, and as the sound passed, he suddenly coughed a few more times, and then gradually the man opened his eyes and woke up.
When the man woke up, it seemed that he still had phlegm in his throat, and when he coughed and spit out for a while, he slowly sat up and gradually gained energy.
He glanced up and down the room and looked at the three of them, and said, "Where am I?"
"It's in a very far away place. Wuzhi said. Generally, after the patient has been extremely frightened, he is reluctant to add mental burden to him.
But the man suddenly said:
"Why, isn't this the moon?"
"Huh?" the man's words surprised the three of them. From their own experience, they didn't know what this place was when they first arrived.
"Why do you say this is the moon?" asked Uzhi as he looked at him, confused.
"I'm just here for the moon, otherwise my money won't be spent in vain!"
"Huh, you meanγγγγγγ The three of them were even more confused, staring at him suspiciously.
"Yes, I paid a lot of money to that turtle bastard before they agreed to send me to the moon, if not here, didn't my money be spent in vain!" Wu Zhi felt that something was wrong, and handed him a cup of tea, asked him to clear his throat, and then said, "Don't worry, take your time." β
"What are you three again?" the man asked.
"Oh, we... We're living here. Before learning about the matter, Wu Zhi didn't say it too clearly, and said ambiguously.
"We saved you!" Yinping couldn't help but feel a little disgusted when she saw that he had only been talking about his money since he woke up, and had not yet said thank you.
"Oh, oh, it turned out that you saved me, so I want to thank you!" he said as he touched the silver in his waist.
"Hey, hey, this is not necessary!" Wu Zhi laughed at his actions, thinking where can he spend money here, thinking that this rich man is really, and he can't do without a word for money everywhere.
The man saw that the three of them were resolute, and he was no longer reluctant, and took his hand back. And said:
"Since it was the three little brothers who saved me, then I will definitely remember your great kindness, but please tell me, is this the moon?"
Seeing that he was so anxious to know something, and didn't want to hide it from him, Wuzhi nodded.
"What! Is this really the moon?!" the man had a look of extreme excitement on his face.
"Well, yes, this is indeed the moon. "But we want to know why you have come all the way to this desolate place?"
"You don't understand this?" he said in a rhetorical tone, "You go and see if there are still people living on that earth?"
"Huh?" the three of them were confused again.
