Chapter 065: It's hard to have a dream
Dao Feng's heart suddenly rose, and he stretched out his fingers and flicked at a cat-bent person, only to see the man sitting on the ground with his legs covered with a groan, and someone on the side asked softly, "Big ass, what's wrong with you?" The man sat on the ground and did not answer, but he saw that the person who asked him was also sitting on the ground with a sigh, and the two of them were in the same position.
"Big ass, big belly, what are you doing......" A person in the courtyard stood with his hands in his hands, it was the voice of Lord Yue Helm, he didn't finish speaking, he only felt that his body was light, and he actually floated upward, "clicking" on a big tree branch in the yard, so frightened that he hugged the branch with both hands, and he didn't know how he came up.
In the blink of an eye, another person flew up, also riding in front of the branch with a "click", but it was the butt facing him, followed by three more people flew up, although the branch was big, it couldn't parry the five strong men, making a creaking sound. No matter how stupid Master Yue was, he knew that he had met a master, so he hurriedly jumped down, turned around and crossed the wall without saying a word.
When the people in the courtyard saw that the helmsman had left without saying a word, they dared to stay, turned around one by one, and climbed over the wall. Back at the Tea Horse Gang Helm, Lord Yue was indignant and called his younger brother Yue Xiao to conspire, but he didn't know what was discussed.
When they got up the next morning, they washed up and ate breakfast in the dining room. After a night of nothing, Cao Darttou seemed more happy, eating flat noodles vegetables, flour rice, inner yellow enema, and Guanjia crispy baked cakes, and felt that the taste was better, especially the blood cake was very sweet after being smeared with garlic juice.
Zhu Zhi asked, "Big darthead, how did you sleep last night?" Cao Darttou smiled: "I slept with the two of them in the first half of the night, the second half of the night, in the second half of the night I was dazed and heard someone say "big ass, big belly" or something, I first thought it was which one was flirting, and then I thought it was wrong, and when I got to the window, I found that a few people ran over the wall, I guess they really came to cheat, hehe......"
Dao Feng asked, "Uncle Zhu, what is cheating?" Zhu Zhi said with a straight face: "You are a monk, why are you asking this?" ”
After everyone ate breakfast, the box was lifted back into the carriage, the whip was flung up, and the north gate of Zhangde Mansion was out, there was no accident on the road, and Handan City was in sight in the evening, and Cao Dart's heart was put down again.
Handan was once known as the "five famous capitals" with Chang'an, Luoyang, Chengdu and Linzi, and gradually declined due to the long-term war in the late Northern Song Dynasty. Everyone entered the city and found an inn, the inn looked very big, just stopped the carriage and did not enter the door, then saw Xiao Er come up with a waist to greet him: "Ladies and gentlemen, the shop is full, I'm sorry." ”
Cao Dangtou said strangely: "Little second brother, is there anything big in the county?" Xiao Er shook his head: "No." The three darts also felt strange: "Then why is it full?" ”
"Our store has always been in good business, please come back next time." Xiao Er said that, turned around and entered the inn. Cao Darttou had no choice but to say, "Let's find another one." The people drove the carriage down the street, and soon they saw another inn.
The third dart head went in and asked, "Little second brother, are there five empty rooms?" Xiao Er poked his head out when he heard the sound, looked at him vigilantly, looked out the door again, and replied, "Guest officer, there is only one empty room left in the shop, please find another place." ”
In this way, everyone even searched for four or five inns, but there were no vacant rooms. Zhu Zhi also felt very strange, there was no major event at this time, how could the house be full? I heard the three darts ask: "Big darthead, can't we live outside the city?" You can also save some silver taels. Cao Dart frowned: "When you go out, you should seek safety, it is not safe to live in a small inn, let alone sleep in the suburbs." Let's take a look, it really can't be done, just find an open space in this city for one night, it's better than the suburbs. ”
Just as everyone was about to give up looking, they saw an inn at the end of the street. Dao Feng smiled: "You guys are unlucky, I'll ask this time." He looked up at the "Huangliang Inn" plaque, walked in, and walked out again without much effort.
Zhu Zhi shook his head and said, "There must be no vacant rooms again." But I heard Dao Feng shout loudly here: "Come here, there is a vacant room in this house...... I said I was lucky, right? ”
Hearing this, Cao Darthead hurriedly ran over, and after a while, he walked out happily: "Three dartheads, let the brothers lead the horses into the stable, this house really has a vacant room." ”
Everyone entered the inn, and Zhu Zhi asked, "Shopkeeper, has there been a big event in the city recently?" I saw the thin shopkeeper with a straight face, and he didn't answer, but stretched out his finger to the wall, and a line of words was pasted on it: "This store is a century-old store, and it is a dream place for Huangliang back then, and each room is two taels of silver." ”
Cao Darttou didn't ask any more questions, paid the silver, waved his hand to signal everyone to push the carriage into the courtyard, and carried six boxes into the room they had booked. When everyone was settled, they came to the restaurant, which was empty. Cao Darttou asked the second brother on the side: "Second brother, how many of us are there in this restaurant?" ”
Xiao Er was enthusiastic: "Guest officer, the room rate of our inn is twice as high as that of other places, so there are fewer people." However, we have clearly marked the price here, and there is no deception...... Ladies and gentlemen, the store's Holy Decree Bone Crispy Fish, Linzhuoguan Donkey Meat, Linzhang Grilled Rabbit, and Wang's Roast Goose are all famous, and the staple food is dumplings and buns, all of which are filled with chrysanthemums, do you need them? ”
Dao Feng smiled: "Donor, you are much more polite than the shopkeeper donor." Cao Darttou said: "We are two people at the table, you can serve two portions of what you just said, and serve five plates of stir-fried vegetables, and you have to serve some more vegetarian dishes for the little master...... What's the best wine? ”
Xiao Er said: "We mainly have two kinds of wine here: Congtai and Hengshui Laobaigan, which kind of guest officer needs?" Cao Dart looked at Zhu Zhi, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he said, "Then Congtai wine, give us two altars each." ”
"Okay!" Xiao Er ran on tiptoe. Zhu Zhiyan frowned: "Big darthead, there is something strange in this Handan City. Cao Dart said: "I also think it is strange, so let's do it, the brothers will drink less wine for a while, to prevent something from happening at night, there are still more than two days away from Zhending, I hope to be able to arrive safely." ”
After a while, all the wine and food were put on the table, Cao Dart took out the silver needle, tried them one by one, and there was nothing unusual, and everyone ate and drank with confidence. Cao Dart picked up the wine cup: "Brothers, thanks to Brother Zhu along the way, after we arrived in Zhending in two days, it was just the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then we handed over the dart and got drunk again, come, this wine will be honored with Brother Zhu!" ”
Everyone drank up, and Zhu Zhi smiled and said: "Don't say kind words to the big dart, I haven't thanked you for taking us on this journey, this is a ...... of eating and drinking."
Talking and laughing, the wine was exhausted, Xiao Er brought a few plates of dumplings and buns: "Ladies and gentlemen, this dumpling is still said to be created by Lian Po, once Lian Po passed by a steamed bun shop, saw that the steamed buns had been sold out, and he couldn't wait to steam them, so he threw all the raw buns on the board into the hot water, and after a while, the buns were cooked, and he praised them after eating, so this way of eating was handed down." ”
Cao Darttou took the silver needle and tested it again, so that everyone could taste it, and the fruit tasted strange. Zhu Zhidao: "Daofeng, this dumpling is still filled with chrysanthemums, you can also taste it." Dao Feng hurriedly made a grimace: "Nan Wu Jizang Bodhisattva, Uncle Zhu, I'm dizzy, I can't eat, just drink some tea." ”
After eating, they went their separate ways to rest. During the day, they were busy on the road, and at this time, they were full of wine and food, everyone was sleepy, and Zhu Zhi and Dao Feng also fell asleep. At night, Dao Feng was dazed and suddenly heard someone outside: "Hmph, forgive them for being careful, they will also fall for our way." "It's the voice of the skinny shopkeeper.
Xiao Er's voice said: "Master is smart, this donkey meat and chrysanthemums are eaten together, plus our special liquor, it is three points more powerful than poison, hehe...... It's ridiculous that they measured it with a silver needle for a long time. ”
"Hmph, that little monk doesn't eat meat, I didn't take him seriously, but just in case, I still threw crispy soft powder into his teacup, and they didn't think of using a silver needle to test the tea for him."
Dao Feng was shocked, secretly lucky, he really couldn't mention a trace of internal strength, and called softly: "Uncle Zhu ......" but did not respond half-sound, guessing that Uncle Zhu and they were also poisoned, and couldn't help but secretly complain.
At this time, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and someone asked, "Master Qi, are you all right?" The shopkeeper's voice said, "Helmsman, it's all in order." The questioner snorted: "I knew it was so easy, why bother setting up ambushes everywhere to lure them in, Lord Yue, you are too careful." ”
"These people are a little weird, so be careful." Sure enough, it was the voice of Lord Yue Helm. The man said, "Then go in now, and do them first." Lord Yue Helm hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Master Xiang Helm, tie them up first, and wait until you find a hundred-year-old golden melon before you do them." "It's fine!"
Following the footsteps towards the room, Zhu Zhi was still lying motionless on the bed, Dao Feng simply closed his eyes and resigned himself to fate. The door of the room was kicked open, and five people walked in, tied Zhu Zhi with ropes, and one of them said: "Forget about this little monk, forgive him and he won't be able to become a climate." ”
"No, it's better to be careful, or tie it up." "Hehe, senior brother likes to play with bondage ......" The five of them carried Zhu Zhi and Dao Feng to Cao Dangtou's room next door, and the fourteen people there were also tied up on the ground.
After a while, more than a dozen people came in, and the leader was fifty-seven or eight years old, with a gloomy face, twisting his goatee, and asked, "Who is the head of them?" The thin shopkeeper pointed at Cao's darthead: "Xiang helmsman, this person is the dart head." ”
Xiang Duo snorted: "Wake him up first." Someone had already brought a bowl of water, and the thin shopkeeper pinched Cao Dart's mouth and poured it down. After a while, Cao Darttou vomited for a long time, and slowly came to his senses. Xiang Helmsman stepped on his chest: "Say, where is the hundred-year-old golden melon hidden?" ”
