When he returned to the car after laughing, Xu first lifted the curtain and went in to see that everyone sitting inside had different faces, and scolded with a smile: "It's time to go home for the New Year, and they are crying and mourning. ”

However, even the old carpenter looked at him with strange eyes, Xu Xian was a little inexplicable, and sat down and asked: "What's the matter?

The young craftsman with a rough face got up and leaned over to pat him on the shoulder, and then whispered, "Come to the cart at night, something's wrong." ”

After saying that, he glanced at Wei Changpan, who came in later, and said no more.

The cart scurries forward.

----

"What's wrong with the people on the government notice? In what years have there been few unjust, false and wrongful cases!"

In the large carriage listening to the inn by the avenue, after nightfall, a few people slipped in front and back, without candle oil, and nested in the black light, not knowing what they were discussing, and then there was this indignant shout.

"Whisper, do you have to wake up all the people in this inn?" The young craftsman with a rough face lowered his voice and said, "Wait until you go down to the boundary of Songfeng County, and there are not many roads to the government, when the time comes, please Brother Xu to make a big effort, and the rest of us will help you, how can you take it down for him, and when the government rewards the silver Brother Xu will take thirty percent, and the remaining seventy percent, we will have a few points." ”

"They all say that they are the people they want in the government, even if we hand them over, if there is a mistake, it is the government's fault, and the silver is taken, what does it have to do with our people...."

"Sensei calls me Brother Xu, it sounds disgusting. Xu Xian frowned, and said, "Lao Tzu doesn't understand, Brother Wei just saved the life of the big guy, is it possible that he really wants to exchange him for a few dirty money? ”

The big car is dim, otherwise the red and white faces of the people inside will be very good-looking.

Xu Xian turned over and got out of the cart, and the old carpenter on the cart wanted to speak and stopped, and he mentioned again, such an ungrateful thing, I Xu Xian will never do it, whoever does it has a child has no asshole.

Most of the people in this inn room are two people in a room, and they can save some room money, after all, taking this not very spacious and comfortable car back to their hometown shows that everyone is not rich in money, and they can't afford to die to save face and suffer money.

tiptoed open the door and entered the house, there was no light in the house, and he couldn't see his five fingers, Xu Xian fumbled to go back to his bed to sleep, but his calf was cold and touched a stool, and he hissed lightly in pain, and suddenly said bad things in his heart, and Wufu's five senses were keen, not to mention that it was such a loud noise in the same room, and ordinary people were also awakened.

However, there was still a steady and orderly snoring sound from the bed a few steps away, serious.

"Know you're awake, get up quickly and don't pretend to be asleep. Xu Xian pounced on Wei Changpan's ears, who was still reluctant to get up, "I'm also a Jianghu person, it's okay to be a little bright, I have something to tell you." ”

"Why can't you get up tomorrow morning and talk about it, I'm tired of breaking my shoulder. Wei Changpan rubbed his sleepy eyes with a gesture, and said with his other arm that could still move.

lit the oil lamp in the house, Wei Changpan hurriedly pulled the quilt up, but he didn't think that he was still seen by the sharp-eyed Xu Xian, and he pulled it away and said with a smile: "Brother Wei, do you still wear shoes when you sleep?"

Wei Changpan was a little stumbling and couldn't say why, Xu Xian sighed when he saw this: "If you break your arm, don't learn from others to eavesdrop, we will be a martial artist, otherwise you will not be able to breathe in the carriage, and if you meet some old fritters, you will already be noticed." ”

Thinking that he didn't have a half-point difference in what he did, Wei Changpan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and the fact that his front arm was inconvenient and he almost fell was still not seen by Xu Xian.

"Those individuals, they don't have the morality of the rivers and lakes at all, and they still want to harm you after receiving the favor of Brother Wei, which is not as good as pigs and dogs. Xu Xian didn't lower his voice and scolded, this inn room is only separated by a thin layer of walls, and I think it can be heard clearly from three or five rooms.

"Be quiet, everyone else in the store is sleeping, don't be loud. Stopping Xu Xian, who was still shouting at the top of his voice, Wei Changpan dragged the cotton shoes on his feet, and then went into the bed to really sleep.

"Brother Wei, you're really not angry. Xu Xian was dumbfounded, "People want to exchange your life for silver, are you really angry?"

Wei Changpan curled up in the thin quilt without making a sound, tucking the corners of the quilt, what if he was uncomfortable, what if he was angry.

Money often unmakes the men who make it.

"I have to look at you in the second half of the night, Xu Xian muttered and pulled his own bed board to Wei Changpan and lay down.

"Why?"

"I'm afraid that your kid won't be able to think about it in the middle of the night, go to the stove room and get a kitchen knife for people to chop up. ”

". ”

"I will go to the boundary of Qishan County in two days, but I can't pass through Songfeng County, then Songfeng Mountain in Songfeng County is not colluding with the government to frame Zhang Lao Hero. Xu Xian said, "Zhang Lao Hero is a person, I don't know which one in the county, even now I am mostly skeptical, but Zhang Lao Hero's disciples who came out of the mountain did not make a sound, and my master also said, it is really chilling..."

With endless chatter and broken thoughts, Wei Changpan just took it as a tune to help him fall asleep and fell asleep.

When I woke up the next day to eat the morning meal in the inn, the faces of the people in the car were a little unnatural, and they sat far away from Wei Changpan and Xu Xiandu, who were later.

"There is no ghost in my heart, can you sit so far away?" Xu Xian showed disdain, and deliberately passed his voice loudly.

He no longer tried to dissuade Xu Xian, Wei Changpan picked up the steaming porridge bowl, the rice in the porridge water was only a handful, just freshly boiled, and there was a fist-sized red lotus on the side, it was such a simple meal, it had to cost ten yuan a meal, and a chopstick pickle had to add another penny, and Xu Xian, who couldn't keep his tongue idle, wanted to go to the shopkeeper to theorize, and he was persuaded again.

No matter how bad the harvest is, the coarse grain of red lotus has become the life-saving food of many poor families, and one acre of land is small and thirty quintals, which is equivalent to the output of several acres of wheat and rice fields. Jiangzhou this year's hungry people are flowing, every household is hoarding grain, the price of rice and grain has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, the cost of rice and grain in the inn has to be doubled, so red rice has become the best choice.

According to Wei Changpan's appetite, how can the fist-sized red lotus have to be ten or eight to be full, the bowl of porridge and water needless to say, it is better than nothing, so I had to take out more than a dozen dollars to come to the shopkeeper and a few more red lotus, and when I came back, I happened to meet Xu Xian swaggering back, and a bowl of freshly steamed bacon in my hand was full of incense as soon as I came in, so that the throats of people who had not been stained with meat in the house for a long time made the sound of swallowing saliva.

"Brother Wei, eat. Xu Xian squeezed his eyebrows, "If you don't eat it cold, it won't be fragrant, this year's bacon is steamed with dried plum vegetables." ”

"Brother Xu, how embarrassing this is...."

"Harm, Xu Xian owes you Wei Changpan's life, from now on we are brothers, why don't you eat a bowl of meat, brother. As he spoke, he stuffed his chopsticks into Wei Changpan's hand that could still move, "Eat, this bowl is yours." ”

Is this a brother.... Wei Changpan looked up at this talkative young man and thought.

"Look, eat fast, eat fast. The talkative young man in front of him winked at him, "Kill those grandsons." ”

He moved his chopsticks, Xu is this inn put too much salt when making bacon, salty throat, it is difficult to swallow in the mouth, but Xu Xian is full of anticipation to watch him eat meat, so he stuffed the bowl of bacon into his mouth three times and two times, swallowed it forcefully, and then showed a satisfied smile.

"Good guy, don't worry, no one will rob you. Xu Xian smiled and swallowed his saliva secretly.

----

In the next two days, the atmosphere on the car became awkward, and no one chattered nonsense, even if there was, it was the whispers of a few fellow villagers.

Xu Xian didn't care, this nervous young man disdains to be in the company of these ungrateful guys, and pulls Wei Changpan all day long to tell some anecdotes on the rivers and lakes, or to communicate with the two of them fists and feet, both of them have a foreign way of boxing, so they are also in the same way, it is not difficult to say, but the martial arts realm of the two is not high, often in some critical joints can not be said thoroughly, and there is no teacher and elder on the side to solve the doubts, the two groped forward, and had to take some detours.

The old carpenter who was originally the best talker in the cart also spoke without a match, which made Wei Changpan a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, he was infected by Xu Xian's optimistic nature, so he didn't care much.

Entering the boundary of Songfeng County, everyone in the car noticed that the faces of the hungry people encountered along the way were not as good as in the previous places, not to mention the frequent things such as starvation on the road a few days ago.

"There are no starving people in Songfeng County, and it is not because of the high clouds and high heavens on Songfeng Mountain to show mercy. An old man on crutches in the tea shed stroked his snow-white long beard and said, "There is no grain in the granary in Jiangzhou, and the government can't open a porridge shed. ”

Xu Xian spit out the tea in the cup and was about to scold the Gao Xu hypocrite, but he was stopped by Wei Changpan, so he had to listen patiently to the old man's words, and the surrounding guests also praised Gao Xu's benefits.

The two of them were silent on the spot, but after Xu Xian returned to the car, he scolded again: "Old fool, how much favor can be bought, I can't see the pickled things that people are doing in Li County, what is Gao Yuntian, and the lover Gao Xu is your long-lost father..."

The cart moved, left the tea shed and then walked on the boundary of Songfeng County, one step closer to Qishan County.
