Volume 1 Chapter 9 The Monk Eats Meat The Boy Walks the Dart

The second stunned hooked Zhang's shoulder, "What do you say?" Let's settle down in Pingyang County? You and I each learn what kind of craft to make a living, drink together when we are empty, and save some money together to trick the two daughters-in-law back after two years. ”

didn't wait for Zhang to stay up late to respond, the second stunned thought to himself, and smirked again.

Zhang stayed up all night and scolded with a smile: "Don't think you are so beautiful if you look ugly, let me ask you, what is your real name?" I remember you seem to have the last name Don? ”

The second stunned man touched his head, "Yes, my surname is Tang, my mother's surname is Wei, and my father named me Tang Weizi." ”

Zhang stayed up all night and nodded, "It's still good to be stunned." ”

The second son, whose real name is Tang Weizi, laughed and scolded and punched Zhang Jiu Ye in the chest, "You stay up late and still laugh at me?" ”

Zhang stayed up all night and couldn't help laughing, his name is also funny, he was born on a snowy winter day, his mother almost had a difficult birth when he gave birth to him, howled in the house all night, went to the battlefield to chop people's heads and was not afraid of a little bit of his father outside the house with his heart in the wind and snow for a night, until the night passed, the sun was rising, and finally heard the cry of the baby in the house.

Then he was stunned by his confused father, who was excited at the time, on a whim, and took such a strange name, saying that he wanted him not to forget the night he was born and the suffering of his mother.

Thinking of these pasts, the young man was silent, Tang Er was stunned at this time, and he seemed to understand something all of a sudden, sighed and patted his brother's shoulder with a smirk.

The bearded Xu Dangtou walked up to Zhao Jiu Ye and said with a smile: "Little brother, what are your plans next?" ”

Seeing this warm-hearted Beihai man, Zhang stayed up all night and just had a heartbeat, hugged Xu Dart's head, and said seriously: "I don't know if there is any surplus food in Master Xu's dart team, and we can eat with two mouths?" Xu Darttou is the first kind-hearted person I met after the catastrophe with my brother, if Master Xu doesn't dislike it, I hope to let me and my brother Tang Weizi work under you. ”

Xu Dart's head was full of calluses with a big wave of his hand, and he said heroically: "What is this, I see that little brother Zhang, you are young and thoughtful, and you escaped from the clutches of this lack of virtue and evil cultivation with so many descendants of the same age, I heard you say before that you are also from a military family?" Like my old Xu, a mortal fetus can slaughter the monk on the mountain, what a young hero! My old Xu is a martial artist, I can't say those scenes, anyway, follow me to the dart, I can't count on getting rich, let every brother eat and dress warm, and the wine is enough, then Lao Xu's ability to dart for more than ten years is not in vain! ”

At this time, the girl surnamed Sun stood beside a few people for some time, and said timidly: "I want to follow too, is it okay?" I can do laundry and cook. ”

Xu Darttou smiled heartily, "Little girl, we are half of us who walk the darts, and you are a little woman, I am afraid that you will be bullied." But there is really nowhere to go, follow our lords, don't complain about the hard days of carriage and horse wandering! ”

Zhang stayed up all night looking at the girl surnamed Sun who almost died tragically at the hands of the old beggar and turned into a full stomach, and asked curiously: "Miss Sun, you dare to ask the surname Gao for so long?" There was a bonfire in the forest that day, and you went to bed after eating early, and I didn't see you come out to introduce yourself to everyone. ”

The girl seemed a little embarrassed, lowered her head and whispered, "My name is Sun Ganlu." ”

"Good name, nectar, stay up late, then let's go together?" Tang Weizi smiled, "By the way, what about the kid with the severed finger before?" I think the other person is good, call him together? ”

Zhang stayed up all night and hurriedly pushed him, frowned and said: "You two stunned, the three of us are already very troublesome Xu Darthead, and this dart team is not brought by you, what decision do you make?" Don't apologize to Brother Xu? ”

Tang Weizi hurriedly patted his little silly brain, and smiled at Xu Dart's head, "Brother Xu, I'm a dumbfounder, don't mind, hehe." ”

Xu Darttou is a really warm-hearted man, so he naturally doesn't care, "The dart board plus the dart team, what about the hundreds of people, what can't I afford to raise a few more children?" What about the severed finger boy? ”

Sun Ganlu and Tang Weizi ran to the crowd to look for it, and brought the young man with the severed finger over, the young man looked dazed, "Brother stay up late, Brother Stunned, are you looking for me?" ”

Tang Weizi was very unhappy and said: "It's okay, it's okay, you can go back!" ”

Zhang couldn't help laughing all night, he remembered that before the ban, the young man who gave a few fingers of his right hand, rushed to do the work along the way, usually didn't talk much, and was an honest person. Zhang stayed up late and asked, "I remember your name is Xu Ying?" Coincidentally, you see that you and Brother Xu were still a family five hundred years ago, do you want to go darts with Brother Xu with us? Anyway, they are all ingots from the pit, and they are all homeless masters, although they are also drifting with the dart, but they have a care together. ”

Xu Ying, a young man with a broken finger, touched his head and stretched out his mutilated right hand, "My hand is useless, and I can't hold a knife, gun and stick as a dart master, but I have the strength and am quite diligent, if Xu Darthead doesn't mind eating a few more bites of food for me, a waste person, it will be natural." ”

Xu Dart said with a smile: "Xu Ying? You old family, why do you have a little tendon, can't you just use your left hand to hold your right hand? Don't agree to eat white rice at a young age! I'm in the dart team, and then I have to practice every day! How can you say it, can you endure this bitterness? ”

Xu Ying's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly, and the young man's somewhat dark face showed a simple smile.

Over there, the dozen or so ingots who were ready to follow the officials to the post station outside the county to go home walked together in front of Zhang Jiuye and the others at this time, and then knelt down seriously in front of him.

Each of them relied on Zhang to stay up late to get out of the pit alive, and one day in the near future, they could return to their relatives, and along the way, they had already regarded this taciturn but supernatural ingots of the same age as a life-saver. After kowtowing, they didn't speak, but just arched their hands to say goodbye to Zhang Weizi and the others, and then left with the officials.

Zhang stayed up all night and just stood there silently from beginning to end, calmly watching them leave after doing all this, and then the young man fell into silence for a long time as he watched their backs gradually fade away. For a moment, he wanted to open his mouth to tell them, to tell the second stunned son and Miss Sun around him, and to tell everyone that we ingots had eaten too much solid meat, and our karma was riddled with evil qi and soaked in the body, and we couldn't live for a few years.

But he finally held back. Maybe one day he will regret it, but Zhang stayed up late and thought about it, maybe he would regret it if he said it or not.

Xu Darttou, who had been watching silently, seemed to be able to understand some complex emotions on the young man beside him at the moment, and shouted with a beard on his face: "Little Brother Zhang, this journey is not easy. You go to the official to sign the copper coin and receive it, and follow Lao Xu and I to the town inn to open a meat, and I Lao Xu is welcome to join the dart team. ”

The group signed on the master's table, drew a pledge, and each received two copper coins. Several other ingots who had nowhere to go all signed and received a Pingyang household registration, which was considered to be settled here, and in the future, they would be like ordinary people, busy begging for a few hot meals under one roof. But everyone is extremely satisfied, compared to the bloody storms of the past few years, every ingots are sincerely satisfied with today. At the time of parting, the teenagers and girls also wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Zhang who stayed up all night, but were persuaded by the latter's kind words, "Stand well, don't kneel." We have survived these hard days together, and we don't know if we will see each other again in the future, as long as each of us lives well, it is enough. ”

Out of the yamen, three teenagers and a girl followed a man to walk on the spacious and lively street of Pingyang County, just in the autumn day, but fortunately today the wind and sunshine are beautiful, it can be regarded as a good weather. The group was also in a very good mood, walked a few streets, followed Xu Darttou into a spacious and elegant inn, Xu Darthead led a few people behind him directly to the second floor, and sat down at a table of eight immortals. Xu Darttou was a refreshing Jianghu guest, took out a piece of silver and slammed it on the table with a muffled sound, and then ordered a table of good dishes like a few treasures. The shopkeeper looked at the silver ingot on the table and had a lot of flattery on his face, and when he heard the dish ordered by the bearded man, he cleared the door.

This time, there is a serious old glutton, what pine nut fish, buckle meat real Buddha, old soup slow cooking and pickling, how can anyone order these dishes this year? But this is a few dishes that have been popular among the elderly in Binh Duong County. In the past ten or twenty years, the wind of eating spicy food spread from the South China Sea to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and gradually flourished in Beihai, and these classic Beihai folk dishes gradually fell into the cold.

When the cook who was specially instructed heard the words of Xiao Er, he knew that there was a knowledgeable old man, and his eyes lit up. It is rare, so he put away his usual laziness, shook his hand and motioned to the apprentice in front of the boiler to get out of the way, and now let you see the real craftsmanship of the master.

With the delicacies served one after another, not to mention the days of being inferior to animals in the pit for a few years, even before this, how could these young people at the table have eaten these good dishes? Even if the family background is quite solid but far from being wealthy, Chen stayed up all night and couldn't take his eyes off it, Xu Dart, who was sitting facing south, looked at the expressions on the faces of these children, and felt quite proud in his heart, as if this table of dishes was fried by himself, and the man said proudly: "Good dishes are for eating, don't look at it, come on, move chopsticks to eat!" ”

After hearing this, how can there be a reason not to drop chopsticks. Then after a while, I saw Xu Darttou breathtaking, convinced, and boasted that he had walked the rivers and lakes of Beihai for half his life, what strange things had he not seen? But the first time he saw someone eating like this, Xu Dangtou poured a glass of warm rice wine and drank it all, sighing that he had a long experience today. Seeing the speed of a few young hungry ghosts dropping chopsticks, Xu Darttou called the shopkeeper on the side to add a few more dishes and make a pot of rice.

The shopkeeper rushed to the back room, and told the cook to make the amount a little larger, these masters are reincarnated, and they have never seen such edible goods.

The fat cook, who had just finished frying and sat down and didn't drink a few sips of tea, was stunned for a moment, put down the teacup like a ghost, and picked up the iron pot with a curse. Okay, have you eaten these two incense sticks? Today, it seems that I have met the most powerful opponent since I entered the industry, Lao Tzu has been cooking for decades, and I really have to give you a clear understanding today.

The innkeeper in the room was gearing up, ready to let the guests at the table on the second floor see and understand, and on the second floor, Zhang stayed up all night, Xu Darttou and the others looked at the fat monk in the shabby robe on the next table, and they also opened their eyes.

Tang Weizi, who was already full, looked at the fat monk blankly, and asked Zhang on the side softly, "Stay up late, this monk has to be a vegetarian, right?" Can monks eat meat? ”

Zhang stayed up all night and looked at the monk in a tattered robe, grabbing a sauce hoof with both hands and gnawing it quickly, and shook his head.

Xu Dangtou coughed lightly twice, stretched out his legs and quietly kicked a few people under the table, and said in a suppressed voice: "Don't look at indecent things, don't look at indecent things." ”

Tang Weizi is a child who lacks heart, he is not clever and stunned, he is unconscious and still sticks out his head and looks curiously, "What's wrong with Brother Xu, by the way, have you ever seen a monk who eats meat after so many years?" ”

Xu Darttou was just about to say something, but a voice suddenly sounded in the hearts of everyone at the table.

"What's the matter, can't the Buddha eat meat?"
