Episode 165
On board the sea.
Less than two of them are already here. In the cabin, the black-faced captain looked at the two people who were gulping water:
"Who are you, how can you drift in the sea?"
"Alas, it's hard to see at a glance. β
I was not afraid that Zhu Yun would leak the truth if he didn't investigate for a while, and ruined the reason why he was incognito, so he hurriedly continued:
"Our petty traders, who were confronted by pirates and shipwrecked, escaped with their lives and landed on an island. There are many trees on that island, and they are growing very well. Later, the two of us cut down trees and built a raft, and they have been floating on the sea for half a year! Fortunately, we were rescued by adults and were able to escape. When we go ashore, we must make a straw ring as a reward. β
"It's good luck for you to meet the Sprinkle family! Otherwise, if you don't know the situation, if you go north, you will definitely enter the Beihai Jedi. β
"North Sea Jedi?"
"You don't hear of the North Sea Jedi?"
"Tell you, Captain, we people from the South, the North Sea Jedi have never heard of it. β
"The Beihai Jedi is the most dangerous place around the ancient continent! Entering this Jedi is absolutely lifeless! The Northland Sea Visitors have changed color when they hear this! Since ancient times, I don't know how many guests and fishermen have entered, and they will not be able to get out, and they will die here. β
Even if our raft is sturdy and not rescued by a great boat, it is hopeless to enter this Jedi. Thank you, captain, thank you, big sailor!"
The two of them sincerely thanked them.
So, he and Zhu Yun followed the ship.
However, for more than a month, the big ship called the Sea Dragon docked in a harbor called the Black Chicken Mouth. Most of the sailors on board disembarked and entered this seaside port city. Two, two, three, three, pair up. There are those who go to restaurants to eat and drink, those who enter casinos, those who go to brothels, and those who go to bazaars to sell goods. After thanking the captain and the sailors who rescued Zhu Yun and Zhu Yun, they also got off the boat. The two of them walked into a tavern. Not enough to carefully find a few coins of silver in his arms, he asked for two plates of cooked beef, played two horns of soju, and sat down near the window to enjoy it silently. It's been nearly two years since I had such a pleasure.
"Zhu Yun, you can return to your home in Fangcheng after getting off the boat this time. A certain family is poor and has nothing to give, and this has more than ten taels of silver to help return. β
Enough to throw a small leather bag to Zhu Yun.
"Brother Jin, what does this mean? Don't you want to return to Fangcheng?"
"A certain family is single, and the four seas are home. And at this point, there is no reason not to travel? Don't pay attention to this, and we will only meet indefinitely. β
"Big brother, little brotherγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
That Zhu Yun suddenly wept.
"Big brother, if it weren't for the eldest brother's care along the way, the younger brother would have died in the belly of the fish! The younger brother is already grateful in his heart, how dare he take the money from the eldest brother to support his life?"
"One person in a certain family, one good strength. If you work part-time jobs anywhere, you will have food and drink. Don't excuse yourself, brother!"
"Big brother, little brotherγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» I γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
"Zhu Yun, farewell!"
Needless to say, he paid for the wine and went downstairs, never looking back.
That Zhu Yun stared blankly and left, his eyes flashing with tears. Thinking of the past two years of helping each other drift and saving countless times in danger and death, I can't help but burst into tears.
At this time, he put on a cyan robe, and from then on he went to the place where the sunset fell.
A year later.
Zhu Yun's house. Zhu Yunyu and his mother's way:
"This is the person, ugly and incomparable, who saves the child from danger. So that the child can return to fulfill his filial piety and take care of his mother. β
"Good man! Save my son! After that, I will recite the sutra every day and ask the Bodhisattva to bless my benefactor with a long life!"
Later, Zhu Yun was no longer afraid of danger, and at the age of fifty, he was a famous general in the mortal world, and his name went down in history. The world calls him an invincible general.
A historian wrote a biography for him and asked Yu Zhu Yun, who said:
"The achievements that have been experienced, the grace is in the strange people, and the golden feet are also!"
Bobo, a small coastal country in the east of the ancient continent, is a small city-state. A big city is called Bo, surrounded by three small cities, and the land is less than 600 miles wide. The name of this city is Bo, and so is the name of the country.
The central avenue outside Bohai is crowded with people. Outside the shops on both sides of the avenue, the men who shouted to buy did their best to attract customers loudly. Those who set up stalls on the street are clever and lure their visitors to stop and linger. There is a hexagram stall, and the signboard reads "Nine palaces to find opportunities, gossip can solve problems." At the long table of his hexagram stall, an elderly man leaned on his desk and squinted and took a nap. Then in a dilapidated drugstore, a few foul growls rang out.
"Go, go, go, go! This kind of appearance is annoying! Don't say that there are no men in the pharmacy, even if you want to, it is not so dignified and available. β
"Shopkeeper, don't judge people by their appearance. A certain family has a lot of experience in pharmacology, and the salary of a certain is only three or five percent of that of ordinary guys, if you hire a certain family, the shopkeeper will never suffer!"
"Hmph, although the salary is small, but the guests look at your appearance, do they dare to come here to buy medicine?"
"Shopkeeper, this is a pharmacy, not clothes and hats, a certain γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
"Shut up, get out, don't delay my business!"
The man in the thin green robe, with a hideous face, and an ugly face, sighed and slowly withdrew.
"Alas! This is the 10th time I have been rejected today, and I don't remember it! β
"I said man, came to this pharmacy to recommend yourself and was rejected, right?"
The old man squinted his eyes, looked at the ugly man who went out in frustration, and said coldly.
"Yes, what does the old gentleman have to say?"
"Don't dare! If you want a job, why don't you come here and count a hexagram. β
"Hehehe! The old gentleman was kind enough to get it. A penniless family, where can they have the money to tell fortunes?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as you have a job, a place to eat and lodging, and earn a few pennies. But just come and return me. β
"Please sir!"
"Just throw this tortoise shell on the table. β
"Good!"
The man in green clothes picked up a few pieces of tortoise shell and threw it gently, and the tortoise shell fell on the table, dripping and turning. Wait for it to stop. The old gentleman looked at it carefully for a long time, and then said softly:
"Man, your hexagram is like the imprint of sword and blood. You should go to the martial arts hall and the dart game to give it a try. β
"Thank you, sir. If you can get a job, a certain family will definitely come here to repay the hexagram silver. β
The old gentleman waved his hand and said no more.
So the man went straight forward, inquired about a contest called the Iron Spear Dart Bureau to recruit people, and went to take the exam. Win all three battles and get a job for the dart master.
"Wu Na man, from now on, it will be the work of my family's iron gun and dart bureau. A dart is a matter of adding blood to the edge of a knife, and his life is not guaranteed at any time. Once you have entered our business, you need to sign the life and death papers. β
"A certain family can save it!"
After signing the contract, the head of the dart board will pay the first month's money as a salary. Then the head of the house arranged a place for him to stay, and left after a few words of advice.
"Finally got this job! It's not easy to be honest! I have to pay the fortune teller first. β
This person is naturally the one who has not been able to do so. It has been more than ten years since he left the sea ship and wandered in the mortal world, and he didn't have enough time to break up with Na Zhu Yun and went straight away.
After three months, those who have become famous in the small town have gone too far, and they actually miss the night! In the evening, suddenly dark clouds are rolling and a cool breeze is blowing in the face. Insufficient raised his head, looked at the cloud, and sighed:
"The rain in the wind is thick, and the wind and rain will definitely meet for a while!"
