Chapter 162: Wooden Box, Xiliang Guoshi, Bluestone Pile

The hill is not high, but it can be seen to the west and to the east. In Xiliang, pray for the prosperity of the peach source where the chickens and dogs smell each other, and naturally there can be no dream scene of green mountains hugging green willows and crisp clinging. The hillside was barren and barren. This hillside is called Dream Returning Slope.

On the hillside, Ye Wen walked all the way away, gradually disappearing into the dry and cracked hillside; under the hillside, Ye Chong was still dressed in black, as if he had completely lost all the light on that night five years ago, and even the light of the jade belt around his waist shining in the sun was huddled in his hand, cowardly and persistent.

"The prince of the dynasty, the future prince, Wu Qi Wu Ziqian. I don't know what kind of commission you have, or what kind of mission you have, but if you want to get through here, your sordid bloodline, disgusting surname, come hard. ”

Wisps of white jade light, and the silk threads flowing out of the white jade belt around Ye Chong's waist lingered between Ye Chong's right hand, turning into a three-foot long sword with a hazy jade light.

On the opposite side of him, Wu Qi, Yang Zongbao, Ma Rulong, and Yue Chi looked at Ye Chong with a clear look in his eyes, and a hideous white light snake was wrapped around his right hand, which was very similar to the moves that Chu Wensheng learned from the Sword Sect.

On the hillside, Ye Wen stepped on the cracked land, all the way up. Just like five years ago, he was holding two taels of peanuts in his left hand, and carrying the traditional Chinese medicine that his parents had entrusted him to bring to Xu Ban Box, the third brother Ye Chong habitually sent himself to the door of Xu Ban Box's mansion and no longer followed him, and he was either squatting on the stone steps to play, or looking at the sun in a daze, or pouting his ass and playing with ants, anyway, he couldn't go in until he stayed in it for a few hours, and he also stayed outside for a few hours, he left him and went in again, before going in, find a place to scrape off your shoes, wash off the dirt on your face and stains on your clothes, as if only in this way can you show his respect for the master a little。

Thinking of this, Ye Wen laughed silently. Maybe it's the only one who knows the secret. Looking at Xu Banjiao, who is lying on his back and not coughing twice for a while, he will hate to drink those brown-yellow medicinal soups with a bitter taste, it stands to reason that he should have been accustomed to these bitter tastes, but he didn't persuade himself, the medicinal soup can't get off his stomach, he walks on his front foot, he can throw it to you with his back foot, or call Ye Chong who is following him, even if his father Ye Bin gave a death order, but he still has a stiff neck, saying that he doesn't drink or drink, as if it is not a cure for diseases, but Meng Po soup on the bridge, as long as he drinks it, he will forget all the future。

Xu Ban Box Medicinal Soup likes to drink peanuts, but he didn't send it by himself, he wouldn't accept it at all, Ye Wu once rushed to send it in front of him, but he couldn't even get in Xu Ban Box's door, and he knocked over the medicine soup bowl with a book that flew out, and finally sent it again by himself.

Ye Wen vaguely remembered that Xu Banjiao often said that the first half of his life was bitter and salty, and his life was tight, and he would pass after boiling up; but since he could eat better in the second half of his life, eat something that was not so bitter and eat something sweet, who would want to eat it? Ye Wen thought about it later, but he still didn't understand why the bitter medicinal soup should be eaten with salty peanuts?

Ye Wen had thought for a long time why he was so favored by Xu Banjiao, the first person below Mrs. Wumu of Xiliang, and he didn't understand it from beginning to end, and in the end he could only blame the so-called pig's foot halo at work, but he understood it now.

It's one thing to be the real son of Wu Mu, and the other thing is probably that when he was a child, he was encouraged by his father Ye Bin to recognize Xu Banjiao as his father-in-law;

I knew that at that time, I simply didn't squirm and called my godfather. Thinking of this, Ye Wen shook his head and looked very annoyed.

Xu Banjiao has been alone all his life, but Ye Wen always thinks that he doesn't like to be alone like this, there is someone waiting for him or he is waiting for someone, but the two of them have not waited for each other. This also created Xu Banjiao, who has been waiting for a lifetime.

I don't know what the original name of Xu Ban Box was, but he has been called Xu Half Box since he became famous. It seems to have started from his father Ye Bin. It seems that the first time the two of them met, Wu Mu Ye Bin, who was still a white Ding at the time, was taken a fancy to Xu Banjiao, who was setting up a fortune teller on the side of the road, and said that he would compensate Ye Bin for his only property, the box, if he couldn't calculate it. Whether it's accurate or not, no one knows now. However, Ye Bin didn't ask for it, and Xu didn't ask for half of the box, and in the end, the box was half of a person. Xu Banbin just shouted like this, using the half-box strategy to find a prosperous era for Wu Mu Yebin.

Then he did it, and it only took half a box to plot for Ye Bin to win the Xiliang Division, and he stood side by side with Wang Wumu. What was in the remaining half of the box, and the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention it, and it became the first unsolved case in Xiliang in those years.

However, Ye Wen quietly opened it and looked at it, and was caught by Xu Banbox, the wooden box that was carried by Xu Banbox for a lifetime, the wooden box that was more important than his life. The wooden box was opened on both sides, and a copper coin was placed inside when it was opened, and just when Ye Wen was wondering what it meant, Xu Banquan, who woke up from a nap, said in a dark way.

"That's what your dad paid me for half a box of things, do you think he's too picky?" After speaking, he found a peanut stained with salt grains in the empty food plate and ate it, shrugged his eyebrows as if he was still complaining about the bitterness of the medicinal soup, and said to the embarrassed and abnormal Ye Wen,

"The other end can also be opened, if you want to see it, you can look at it generously, I was shocked, you can accompany me for so long. ”

The other end of the wooden box was opened, and there was only an enamel bowl inside, and on the bowl was an ordinary red-crowned rooster, and the crown of this big rooster was a little faded, making the whole big rooster a little deformed. It's obviously not an artifact or anything like that, nor is it a valuable thing, just an ordinary enamel bowl, which can be bought for two for a penny on the street.

At that time, Ye Wen blurted out, "There won't be any cliché bloody stories of a meal in this big bowl." Unexpectedly, as soon as Ye Wen turned his head, he saw Xu Banjiao's pair of eyes that were always cloudy and unpredictable on weekdays, looking at the enamel bowl in the wooden box, and even forgot the cough that he had to cough twice in three sentences on weekdays, Ye Wen was stunned all of a sudden, but he didn't expect to be really hit by what he said casually.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Wen was slapped on the head by Xu Banjiao and woke up, and when he saw Xu Banjiao, he knew that you would want to look at himself with a crooked expression, and coughed again and again.

Ye Wen smiled embarrassedly, took out the big bowl and put it in front of the two of them, looking deaf. However, this time, Xu Banjiao did not satisfy Ye Wen, but just asked Ye Wen to help him find a chopstick that matched this big rooster enamel bowl, and drove Ye Wen out.

At that time, Ye Wen felt that Xu Banjiao was teasing himself, looking for a chopstick to match this big rooster bowl? In fact, now Ye Wen also thinks that Xu Banjiao is joking with himself, not to mention the material, not to mention the shape, not to mention the color, to find a chopstick to match the big rooster enamel bowl?

In the days that followed, Ye Wen never saw Xu Banbin open the wooden box on the other side, and the copper coin on the other side was often taken out and dangled in front of Wu Mu Ye Bin's eyes, so that everyone in Xiliang knew that Wu Mu Ye Bin bought a peerless national warrior with a penny, and there were even rumors in Kyushu, but it was more mythical in word of mouth.

Ye Wen just walked all the way and reminisced, and unconsciously came to the top of the hillside, this road is not long, but Ye Wen feels that he has walked for a long time, as if he has walked for most of his life.

There are strange boulders all around, and you can't see any color other than gray and black, so you can't say anything about willows. It completely explains what is called poor mountains and bad waters. However, there are no people on this hillside, and there is only a low grave.

The mound is very small, with only three or four layers of bluestone piled up, which looks very simple, but even more simple is the tombstone with names and epitaphs written on the bluestone. Initially, when Ye Wen and Ye Chong were buried here with Xu Banbox's ashes according to his words, after everything was done, they found that there was no usable wood on this huge land, and in the end, Ye Chong could only find this piece of wood overnight.

The self on the tombstone is already blurred, and no one can see that this grave tired of a few boulders will be the final burial place of Xu Banjiao, who has suppressed the emperor Song Zhiming for a lifetime.

According to Ye Wen's estimate, no one has come to sweep the grave of this Xiliang scholar for five years, and the three or four layers of big bluestone are estimated to have been submerged by the flying ash falling from the air early, and even the extremely simple tomb of Xu Banjiao has been submerged, and the entire dry slope of the land has been integrated with the entire Xiliang. After all, if you go south from Xiliang, there is a great desert that no one has ever crossed.

However, to Ye Wen's surprise, not only did the bluestone pile in front of him not only have not changed exactly the same as five years ago, but there was also a pile of burned ashes in front of the small tomb, and the bluestone pile and tombstone had not changed, just like the bones of the person in it, which was hard and distressing.

What was even more surprising to Ye Wen was that here he met a person, a woman, a woman who had a relationship.
