Chapter 91: A young man listens to tea
Hostage, woe, chaos!
Stir him upside down, the sky will be turned upside down, and the earth will be overturned!
......
"Old man, how far is this Dingdu City from here?" In the teahouse of the post station, a young man asked the shopkeeper with tea.
The melon farmers on the side of the road have to set up a shed to fan the hot wind of straw hats.
"I said this son, the capital city is not close to here, and it is not far away to walk along the official road, if the two of you are not in a hurry, it is better to avoid this poisonous sun, drink some tea in the little old man's place, and it is not too late for the sun to set and go again. The old man on a rocking chair was lying on it on all fours, and the fan in his hand was fanning for a while, and when he heard Xiaobai's question, he turned sideways and proposed lazily and kindly.
"Okay, let's go later, talk to you more, just want to ask the old man, how to get to this Dingdu City? We have asked a lot of people all the way from Dadu Mountain, but they are also walking along the official road and can't tell you how to ask again, don't tell you, my brothers are going to this place for the first time, the road is not familiar, and I am not afraid to delay some time, but it is not good to meet some bad people in this section. "Chatting with the old man about trivial matters, his posture is very low, there is no shelf, and his words are like a breeze, which makes people feel a little refreshing in this irritable hot day, and the old man loves to say a few more words.
The old man patted the fan and sat up, "You are asking the right person, I don't dare to say that I know where the old man goes, but this is the capital, but I really don't go to it, as for why? Not to mention this piece, even if it is Qi Yang Guozhong, there is not such a big kiln." This army is in chaos, God knows how the land has prospered, the war can't be fought in the city, and there are many beards on the side of the mountain, but you also have to weigh the city generals who are not easy to mess with, if you are in another place, transport some rouge gouache or something, all the way must be safe, and you will make a lot of money!"
"Oh, and what's going on, isn't that place at the junction of Qi and Yang, this is a place where soldiers must fight, how can it be like this?" Xiao Bai also asked with interest.
The old man reached out and took the mud teapot on the side of the case, and drank it with a spout, after quenching his thirst, he couldn't clean it up, "Little boy, you don't know this, as early as two years ago, that place was under the control of Jiang Guo, and Qi and Yang tried to avoid fighting in that place when they were at war, not to say how, but I really didn't want to touch that moldy head, you said that you started to fight under the root of the human city, can people agree? Not to mention that this Jiang Guo is a mad dog, whoever bites whom, you dare to move a hair of my hair to bite you to death, you scare him?" People are not afraid of you, alas, no one's soldiers come for nothing, you have to pay subsidies to your family if you die in this battle, for the sake of this city and a pool, who is willing to take human lives and silver to pile up. ”
"What about now? Jiang Guo is gone, who is in charge of that place?" Xiao Bai took a sip of tea and asked lightly.
"Who cares? What should people do? You Jiang Guo is gone, do I have to destroy the capital? The city is full of Jiang Guoerlang, but the royal family is dead, which idle person will think about recovering the country or something? Just change the name of the country, which one of the Qi and Yang countries can't?" The old man saw that it was quite open, but the sentence that the royal family was all dead made Xiaobai bow his head and smile to himself, there was no other meaning, just sadness.
"You have said that the biggest kiln is in Hedingdu City, does no one in the two countries want to go over and get a piece of the pie? After all, who does Dingdu City belong to now?" Xiaobai asked his own question.
"Why don't you want to? Such a big cake is placed there, no one wants to eat it, but this Dingdu City is not like the pile of ruins in Jiang Cheng, anyone can pick up a brick and tile, people have an army, who dares to move? If you want to move, you have to weigh whether it is cost-effective after this battle is fought, and this is the border, no one cares, so why do you have sex, you say that he is Qi State or Yang State, Dingdu City is Dingdu City. "The old man was not a good stubble when he was young, and his face was full of wrinkles when it came to fighting the war.
"The ruins of Jiang City?, I know that Jiang Guo has been destroyed, but it won't directly become ruins, right?" Xiao Bai dominated the conversation, trying to talk about what he needed to know.
Hearing Xiaobai's question, the old man first sighed, put down the teapot in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is the sin of Yang Guozao! You say that you will fight if you fight, and there are many people who are in chaos. ”
"It's a bad thing. ”
"Who says it's not, the people in this world are ignorant, but they are not stupid, they haven't read books but understand common sense, your slaughter of the city is to suppress some people, but isn't this clearly pushing the people to the side of Qi State. "The old man may not know a single word, but his life experience cannot be questioned.
"Pity the people of Jiang Country. Xiaobai couldn't help but sigh with pain.
shook the pu fan twice, "This person's fate is destined, Yang Guo wants to use the ruins of this city to swear to resist himself is such an end, there is no room for resistance, there is this arrangement in fate, and he can't hide." ”
Shaking his head, he hurriedly added: "But this heavenly cycle, good and evil are rewarded, and one day they will be found back, but they are bored, and in the end they are all dead, either they die on the battlefield or die of illness in bed, and the slaughter of the city without a disaster does not know what kind of death it is, alas, this donkey is rough, he knows how to fight, and he has not seen which family is popular and which family suffers, and Ansheng is better than anything else after a lifetime!"
Xiaobai was silent, there was nothing to say about waking up the person in the dream, but he was just agreeing with the old man's words, the cycle of heaven, good and evil are rewarded, and one day he will find it back. The old people have a lot of knowledge, and they have more time to do precipitation, and those who believe believe it will believe it, and if they don't believe it, they should fart. Xiaobai can't say whether he should believe or not believe his inexplicable emotions.
The old man saw that Xiaobai bowed his head and was silent for some reason, so he hurriedly said: "Little Lao'er is talking nonsense, I love to listen to two sentences of commentary if I have nothing to do, and I can't learn the sour and rotten strength of the storyteller, but people are well-informed, and I will believe what I say, and I can't take it seriously." ”
"The old man is polite. Listening to the old man's words is better than reading a book for ten years. Xiaobai, who shook his head, hurriedly confessed and gave way.
The old man waved his hand, "Alas, what I said is crepe, I'm a big old man, or something better than reading for ten years, when I'm old, I don't have a score, don't take it seriously, little boy, because of this trouble in the coming days, your adult came to me to settle accounts, my old man doesn't care! ha......" was a joke after getting acquainted, but it was sincerely cute.
looked at each other and laughed.
At this moment, a woman's voice came, "Shop, eat and drink, and fetch a trough of water to feed the horses, you will not be short of your silver, and you will be hungry for a day." A group of three people, two men and one woman, with a dusty appearance, sat at the table behind Xiaobai.
This lazy afternoon is really a little lazy, the store responded to the sound, and then reluctantly walked over, "A few, what good food is there in our small shop, the big name foam tea tube is enough, just a little sauce beef and paste, do you like it?" The store is also a person who understands, looking at the three of them are obviously young children, I have to say it thoroughly, or I will think that it is not delicious and will hinder my face and smash my small shop, and there is no place to cry.
One of the men, dressed in a sergeant's uniform, waved his hand and said impatiently: "Whatever, just hurry up." Don't forget to feed the horses water. ”
"Okay, I'll be right here. "Not verbose, I turned around and went to the back kitchen to get food, this small shop next to the official road, you don't expect a cook or anything, it's all something to eat freshly, and after a while, the store came out with a wide board of sauced beef and a number of sticky cakes, put it on the table and didn't look at the three people gobbling up, there was a well behind the courtyard, so he slowly picked a wooden barrel to fill the manger with water.
Xiaobai was still lazily moistening this cup of tea, at this time, the three of them were a little choked and wanted to ask for tea, but the shopkeeper had just carried the water and walked out, and the girl turned around impatiently and snatched the teapot that was pouring water into the cup, and splashed Xiaobai's tea.
didn't care about apologizing, and hurriedly drank water and swallowed this choking. I hiccuped happily, and then I reflected that I splashed someone else's water.
"That, little brother, I'm sorry, I can't help it. "The girl is quite bold, and an apology makes people not angry.
Xiao Bai smiled gently, "It's okay, where are you going?"
