Chapter 10: The Old Man and the Dog

In the villa outside the city, Zheng Qianjun, a talented general, ordered his corporal to wait outside at the gate of the villa, and entered the villa alone.

"Brother Zheng has arrived, and the younger brother has been waiting for a long time. ”

Zheng Qianjun saw this person and hurriedly smiled, and bowed back: "Let Brother Zhou wait for a long time, it's Zheng's fault, and he will punish himself for three cups in a while, Brother Zhou is not strange." ”

The two of them humbly sat down in the hall between words, and the maid served tea and dessert, and when the man surnamed Zhou waved away the maid, Zheng Qianjun said: "On the way here, I met a stunned boy, looking at his momentum is a hard idea, I wanted to take him down, but thinking of Brother Zhou's instructions, I didn't pay attention to it." ”

The man surnamed Zhou listened to it and inquired casually, and when he heard that it was a dirt bun that came from nowhere, he ignored it and said approvingly: "Brother Zheng has done a very good job, it is in vain that I have repeatedly praised the above, we have spent a few years in this city, and now I see that this silver is going to be enough, and it is better to be careful recently, in case of extraneous branches, and wait for the last payment next month, this city can be abandoned, and all the people in this city will have to ...

Speaking of this, the man surnamed Zhou made a gesture of wiping his neck, and then continued: "In order to ensure the safety of this matter, the boss has sent eight blood refining Dao friends to help before, you haven't seen it yet, I will introduce you to Brother Zheng at the dinner." ”

Zheng Qianjun smiled when he heard it: "That relationship is good, I was afraid that some people in the city would be difficult to deal with, but this time there are eight Taoist friends, plus you and me, this small town will be foolproof, but..." At this point, Zheng Qianjun didn't say anything, but just glanced at the tattoo on the arm of the man surnamed Zhou.

This week, the man surnamed Zhou was tattooed with the same pattern as the envoy of the Terran Xiangguo and Nanzhou, but the color was different, the color of rusty iron, and there were some traces of rust on it.

Seeing Zheng Qianjun looking at his embroidery, the man surnamed Zhou smiled and said: "Brother Zheng, please rest assured, when the city is destroyed, it will be the day you join the gang, and you will never be allowed to wander outside on the charge of treason, not to mention that now this court is full of our manpower, the Witch Emperor has already acquiesced, and will never investigate anything in detail, but Brother Zheng has gained momentum in the organization one day, but don't forget the little brother." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Qianjun let go of his worries, and the two smiled at each other and continued to discuss other matters.

In addition to the people who run the shops in Rongjin City, there is only one difference between the wealthy people who come here to play or have fun.

Rhubarb is just an ordinary dog, this name is its owner for it to take, a person and a dog begging for food in the city on weekdays for a living, in fact, just rely on rhubarb to find some food everywhere, although often bullied, but fortunately, there are occasional harvests, or starvation.

Rhubarb still remembers that when it was first brought to the city, it was only the size of two palms, and at that time it was full every day, and the people in the city liked it very much, and always played with it with a smile on their faces.

But somehow, there are a lot of unfamiliar faces in the city, and there are a lot of familiar faces, and everyone is no longer friendly to it, that is, the aunt next door who used to feed it meat, Rhubarb has wagged her tail at her several times as if she hadn't seen it, Rhubarb doesn't understand, but it's not strange, this city is its home, and how the people in this city treat it is just silently endured, and never yelled at anyone.

At this time, the sun is poisonous, rhubarb and his master hid under the eaves in an alley to avoid the sun, there are three people walking on the street at the mouth of the alley, one of them suddenly stopped, looking at himself, how human beings observe the face of rhubarb is not known, but in its eyes this cold-faced person, the eyes are very clear, the spar on the forehead seems to allow rhubarb to see his heart directly, rhubarb likes him, so he stretched out his tongue at him, wagging his tail vigorously.

Ye Shaobai and the three of them were not in a hurry to find a place to stay, because Shi Wuxin proposed to walk around, to see the scenery of the big city, and was walking on their own, Ye Shaobai looked sideways, and saw a big yellow dog lying next to an old man in the alley, and the old man's eyes were already only two rounds of hollows, and the injuries seemed to have been gouged out.

The yellow dog seemed to be a little afraid of himself, although he wagged his tail to please but cowered and did not dare to step forward, until Ye Shaobai walked in front of him and gently touched its forehead, the big yellow dog was no longer afraid, and stood up happily, stretched out his big tongue, and wagged his tail to look at Ye Shaobai.

At this time, Shi Wuxin and the two had already followed, I don't know what Ye Shaobai came here, Shi Wuxin walked to his side and just wanted to inquire, but saw Ye Shaobai looking at the yellow dog with a warm smile on his face, frightened like a ghost, and exclaimed: "If you see a ghost in the daytime, will you laugh? ”

Ye Shaobai didn't pay attention to his sarcasm, but slowly put away his smile and replied lightly: "It is much simpler than people, so I can see its heart, it is a kind little guy." ”

"Oh, yes. Shi Wuxin was confused by this serious answer and didn't know what to take, and turned his head to look at the big yellow dog, just as the dog also turned his head to look at Shi Wuxin at this time, naturally he still had a pleasing look, Shi Wuxin scratched his head and thought about it, took out a wrapped meat leg from his arms and handed it to the rhubarb.

"Well, here's for you. ”

Rhubarb smelled that this was meat that he hadn't eaten for a long time, but he still didn't dare to stretch out his mouth to bite it, just glanced at the meat leg and still looked at Shi Wuxin, but the saliva at the corner of his mouth unconsciously flowed into a line, until Shi Wuxin's palm was handed forward repeatedly, Rhubarb knew that this meat was indeed given to himself to eat, so he carefully took the bone stick in his mouth, and didn't dare to touch Shi Wuxin's palm.

Rhubarb took the meat leg but didn't eat it, turned his head and put it on the old man's side, and then went to the corner of the wall for a long time to dig out a bone that I don't know how long it had been put in.

Shi Wuxin no longer looked like a ruckus at this time, but looked at Rhubarb with a smile, it was impossible for several people to accept this return gift, Ye Shaobai just stepped forward and touched Rhubarb's forehead again, and then turned to leave.

Shi Wuxin only noticed the old man beside Rhubarb at this time, and was startled by the miserable appearance of his eyes, then sighed, took out a piece of meat and put it in front of the old man, and said to the old man, "Your dog is very good", and then pulled Huang Fuming to turn around and leave.

The old man didn't seem to have a lot of ears, and when someone was listening, he replied loudly when the three of them had already walked far away: "Who do you say peeked at Widow Zhao taking a bath?"

In the distance, the three of them obviously flashed their footsteps, but they did not stay, and continued to move forward, so the three of them walked around for an afternoon, and they were feeling hungry, and when they looked up, they saw a large signboard with vermilion lacquer gold characters "Piaoxiang Building"

After stopping to smell the aroma of the wine and food wafting out of the house, the fragrance was overflowing, Shi Wuxin swallowed his saliva and said:

"I'm hungry, let's go in and get some food. Without waiting for the two to reply, they strode in.
