The next day, Lou Zijin finished washing and dressed neatly and came to the dart game. Lu Chang had already led someone to load the cargo boxes into the carriage, and each car was equipped with a coachman, including Lou Zijin and Lu Chang, and the eight dart masters each rode a tall horse, escorting twelve carts, ready to set off.

Lu Chang introduced everyone in the team to Lou Zijin, and the other six dart masters were all wearing white shirts, black chess piece cloth pants, leather bracers, cloth leggings, and hard cowhide boots. Lu Chang also solemnly introduced Lou Zijin, and among several people, only Lu Chang and Lou Zijin were wearing long shirts.

Lu Chang said to Lou Zijin: "You are in a tight time, I will teach you many things slowly on the road." ”

Lou Zijin nodded yes.

The convoy set off in a mighty way, passing through the Sujube Gate, passing through the Heavenly Gate, all the way to the north, and walking in the direction of the Daimyo's Mansion.

The cart was not like riding alone, and the speed was relatively slow, and it took more than two hours to walk twenty miles. Bianliang City is located in the East Henan Plain, near Sizhou, the road is spacious and flat, and it is in the middle of summer, under a glance the lush green is full of tall trees, and the road is very comfortable.

The convoy passed through a hill that was not high, and Lu Chang told Lou Zijin that this was Pengshan. The hills of Pengshan are not high, the top of the mountain is gentle, the trees fall between the tall grasses, there are zigzag mountain springs flowing down the river in the distance, there is a little interest, Pengshan is also one of the famous scenery of Bianjing.

Everyone sat down in the shade of the roadside trees at the bottom of the mountain. Lou Zijin saw from a distance a person riding a tall jujube red horse running down the hillside, wearing a white gauze shirt and a soft gauze head, like a handsome young man, it was the little sister Ye Pei.

Ye Pei came to Lou Zijin and said with a smile: "Fifth Master Lou, what a coincidence!" ”

Lou Zijin didn't know whether to be angry or laughing, and it took a long time to say: "Senior sister, you're really ......" After thinking about it, I didn't know how to say it, and then said: "It's so naughty!" ”

Ye Pei jumped off the horse, and Lu Chang and the others also surrounded him. Ye Pei saluted Lu Chang and said, "Senior brother, Ye Pei wants to go with you to darts!" I will follow you from afar, and I will not disturb you. ”

Lu Chang and Lou Zijin looked at each other, and they both thought: My junior sister's idea is too big, if she refuses her, she still has to follow secretly, it is better to take her safer.

Lu Chang said: "Then follow it!" But let's agree, only this once, back to Bianliang can not go elsewhere! ”

Ye Pei said happily when he heard this: "A word is a certainty!" This is the only time I have followed the senior brother out to see and learn, and I will never mess around. When I returned to Bianliang, I listened to my sister-in-law's arrangement steadfastly. ”

Seeing that the senior brother agreed, Lou Zijin glared at Ye Pei, and Ye Pei grimaced at him.

In order to catch up with the night's stay, the crowd continued on their way.

On the way, Lou Zijin and Lu Chang walked side by side, and Ye Pei followed behind.

Lu Chang said to Lou Zijin as he walked: "The dart bureau pays attention to a harmony is precious, the strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, try to be low-key and forbearing, and try not to use force Qingzi (move weapons), let's take more familiar roads, live in familiar shops, keep weapons at night, and have their own people on duty in turns." Lu Chang also said: "There are six precepts on the road of darts: abstain from newly opened shops, abstain from changing hands, quit prostitutes, abstain from weapons, abstain from darts and objects, and abstain from ignoring doubts. We also have a saying in the dart line, called three points to keep safe: with three points of laughter, let three points of courtesy, and drink three points of wine. ……”

Lou Zijin wrote them down one by one.

The convoy opened the road all the way to the mountains and the water to build a bridge, and lived at night and was cautious. Ye Pei found that there were really many rules for the dart game, and there were many interesting things. It's really interesting to shout "Drink" when you encounter a river, "Drink" when you encounter a temple, and shout "Drink" when you encounter a forest. Lu Chang told her that this is called "Drink and leave with a dart, and return safely in half a year." ”

Every day, Ye Pei rode a horse for five or six hours with the dart cart, and lived in a car shop with poor conditions at night. At noon, if you can't meet the storefront, you will make your own fire and eat some coarse and cold food, which is very hard.

On this day, I arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion, passing by a place called "Erhu Mountain", the mountain is not too high, and the main road must be blocked by wattles, and there are small minions in ambush in the grass. Ye Pei had the experience of the last time in Wolf's Den Mountain and knew that this was a cottage with fallen grass.

I saw Lu Chang shoot three arrows, and everyone shouted "cheer" three times. A man jumped out of the grass, stepped forward and clenched his fists and said, "Which brother on the road?" ”

Lu Chang said: "Lu Chang of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau worships the mountain!" Then he handed him a cloth bag wrapped in silver money.

The little minion said: "It turned out to be Uncle Lu of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, you wait, I'll go and inform." ”

After a stick of incense, the little minion returned with a wine gourd: "Hello to our king, this pot of wine wishes you good luck and prosperity!" Then the little minion shouted into the grass: "! A dozen people pulled ropes from the grass and slowly retreated, making way for them.

Lu Chang led the convoy through slowly.

After Erhu Mountain, Lu Chang said to Lou Zijin: "You will encounter a lot of cottages on the road, if you want to be safe on the road, the only way to be safe on the road is to mingle with them, and you can slowly learn black words." For example, businessmen will say 'pointy', accomplices they call 'familiar mai', and laymen call them 'outer code'......"

Ye Peiti followed the horse, but asked Lu Chang: "Senior brother, we are all heroes, everyone is a hero, are we still afraid of the mountain bandits?" Why do you want to give the king of the mountain money? ”

Lu Chang said: "It is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress the head snake, I often take this route, and I know a lot of heroes on the road, and they often have unspeakable hidden things when they fall into the grass, everyone admires each other, why mess things up?" A small amount of silver to avoid a fight, worth it. ”

Ye Pei found that since the fifth senior brother Lou Zijin came to Bianliang, he didn't seem to be as close to him as before, he was always with the senior brother Lu Chang, and there were many things to hide from him. Ye Pei obviously felt that there were some secrets between them that he would not tell him. But Ye Pei thought about it, this might be the secret between men, although he was curious, it was inconvenient to explore too much.

After traveling for a few more days, Ye Pei found that every time he stayed in the county capital, the senior brother always secretly went out with Lou Zijin at night, and only came back in an hour or two, Ye Pei was very curious. On this day, I came to Longxing County, Ruzhou, and everyone rested in the inn at night, Lu Chang took Lou Zijin out again, and Ye Pei also followed, Lu Chang didn't let him, so Ye Pei secretly followed in the dark.

She saw Lu Chang and Lou Zijin come to the back door of the county office, handed it in, and thought: It turns out that the senior brother brought the fifth senior brother to the county office, and the senior brother is indeed not like an ordinary businessman, why does he like to make friends with these people in the cottage and green forest, and now he comes to cling to these officials? Is this how he makes money?

Ye Pei hid outside the wall and waited, and after two tea times, Lu Chang and Lou Zijin came out.

After Lu Chang came out, he looked around and shouted, "Ye Pei! Ye Pei knew that the senior brother had already seen her following behind.

Ye Pei turned out of the shadows and shouted, "Senior brother, you see me!" ”

Lu Chang said with a calm face: "Senior sister, you are really curious and naughty. ”

Ye Pei was not convinced, and said with a little sarcasm: "You are really black and white!" ”

Seeing this, Lou Zijin frowned and said to Ye Pei: "Don't be unreasonable to Senior Brother. He turned his head and persuaded Lu Chang again: "Senior brother, don't be surprised, the little junior sister is spoiled, and she is this untamed character." ”

"Ye Pei, do you know that it is not our mission to get out of the dart and fight ruthlessly, it is our mission to deliver the property safely to the destination. The so-called Xinda Sanjiang is to complete that trust, live up to the goods of this dart, and live up to the brothers who dart! Lu Chang said calmly.

"Then you're here to bribe the county? If only I would cut down this corrupt official and eliminate the harm to the people. Ye Pei still looks unruly.

Lou Zijin said: "Senior sister, you can't misunderstand senior brother. He's not here for all of us! ”

Lu Chang said: "Little junior sister, there must not be any cheapness in human life, whether it is an official or a citizen, you can't be angry and kill at will." ”

Ye Pei somewhat agreed with Senior Brother's words, but still said stubbornly: "As long as I encounter injustice, I will never sit idly by!" ”

Lou Zijin stroked Ye Pei's head and smiled: "Got it!" Senior sister is the most righteous person! ”

The three of them walked as they talked, and returned to the store at night.

Unexpectedly, when I entered the storefront, it was very lively, and the brothers who were driving the dart and the car had recruited prostitutes and were drinking and having fun. Lu Chang was very angry, pushed the door in, drove all the prostitutes away, and said to his brothers: "We went out to make money for the family, and it is only right to return safely after taking the dart money, are you worthy of the wife and children at home?" Besides, if a thief targets our dart cart and robs it at this time, can you afford it? Everything I do is for the reputation of the game, for the sake of not losing your darts, and so that you don't lose your life! ”

Lou Zijin saw that Lu Chang was really angry, and persuaded everyone: "Disperse, disperse, don't be like this in the future, hurry up and go to bed tonight!" ”

Everyone knew that they were wrong, so they dispersed and went back to their houses to sleep.

Ye Pei began to wonder, what kind of character is Senior Brother Lu Chang? He eats both black and white, sometimes righteous and awe-inspiring, sometimes sleek and accessible, what he says sounds very reasonable, but are his theories all right? In Ye Pei's black-and-white world, she still can't fully understand Lu Chang's situation, maybe she can't really appreciate it until she grows up. People are not only divided into bad and good, good and evil, everyone is a combination of good and evil!

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, Ye Pei is also accustomed to the bumpy dart life, this day is about to arrive at Zhending Mansion, the team stays in Peach Blossom Village, and can arrive at Zhending at noon the next day.

When he first arrived at the store, Ye Pei heard the shopkeeper arguing with someone in a local guest room. In order to receive the people of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, the shopkeeper had to stop arguing and come out to entertain. Due to the lack of guest rooms, the people of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau only lived in five rooms, one for Ye Pei, one for Lu Chang and Lou Zijin, one for the other six famous dart masters, and two for the twelve coachmen.

Lu Chang lives in this "peach car shop" every time he takes this line, and the shopkeeper knows Lu Chang, so he complains to him: "Uncle Lu, this time it is really not well entertained, and the guest rooms are not enough, so everyone is wronged." A guest in the local name, owed a few days of room money, but sick in the store, the shopkeeper's kindness let him live for a few more days, see this is four or five days, I don't see him good, I don't see him go, it's really anxious! ”

Lu Chang said: "It's okay, it's okay, it's inevitable to encounter difficult things when you go out, do you think he owes you a few days of room money?" Tomorrow it will be settled in my account. ”

The shopkeeper promised: "Uncle Lu is so righteous and squandering money, good intentions are rewarded, and he will definitely be prosperous!" ”

Lu Chang smiled: "Borrow your auspicious words!" ”

All this was seen by Ye Pei.

Because the guest room is simple and the sound insulation is not good, in the evening, Ye Pei heard the shopkeeper arguing with the guests in that room, and it seemed that he promised to leave tomorrow.
