"Ah Ri, I didn't say you, your mother is still sick in bed, what are you doing here with me, and you want me to carve a wooden statue, and it must be jujube wood?" Zhu Tianqi looked at the auspicious day, somewhat confused.

Ji Ri gritted his teeth and said: "Uncle Zhu, this wooden statue is related to the lives of our mothers and sons, and it depends on whether we can get justice or not!" ”

Zhu Tianqi laughed and said, "Are you asking for God or worshipping Buddha?" Everyone is a hard-working person who is dug out of the crops, the gods don't love it, the Buddha doesn't harvest it, and it's serious to survive! ”

How to explain the statue of Guan Gong to Zhu Tianqi is more difficult than steamed buns. At least after the steamed buns are steamed, it is obvious to all, and although Guan Gong is solemn, he is not a well-known figure in Dajin. Ji Ri pretended to be in trouble, pretended to have a bitter face, and said: "Uncle Zhu, I dreamed of it when I went to bed last night, and I am afraid that it will not work if I say it!" ”

Zhu Tianqi looked at Ji Ri and wondered: "I watched you grow up, you kid didn't have so many ghost ideas before, didn't your father block your life?" Forget it, just tell me how to carve it, I can't afford a piece of jujube wood. ”

As soon as the auspicious day reached the ground, the shape of the statue of Guan Gong was narrated: "The face is like a heavy jujube, the lips are like grease, the red phoenix eyes, the silkworm eyebrows, the left hand holds the beautiful hair, the right hand holds the green dragon glaive knife, wears a golden helmet and gold armor, and wears a splendid robe......

Zhu Tianqi was still sharpening his knife at the beginning, and the more he listened, the more wrong he became, and asked, "Boy, how much money did you bring?" ”

"Five hundred wen, is it enough?" Ji Ri sneered.

"You bring the gold you need to make the gold helmet and armor," Zhu Tianqi couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Another five hundred wen is enough." ”

"Okay, Uncle Zhu, go back and give our mother and son a better coffin." After Ji Ri finished speaking, he was about to leave the gate of the Zhu family.

Zhu Tianqi was anxious when he heard this, and shouted: "You come back for me!" What do you mean by this, am I the one who will not be saved when I see death? My old Zhu has been a carpenter for so many years, and you are the first one who dares to make trouble with me! ”

The left foot is about to step on the threshold, and there is room for manoeuvre. Ji Ri retracted his left foot and turned around and returned to Zhu Tianqi, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu, I know that you have a good heart and will not ignore me, as long as you help me carve it, I will promise you any conditions!" ”

Zhu Tianqi hesitated: "What conditions are fine?" Are you good at eating? ”

Ji Ri was stunned for a moment, the craft of eating by himself? Steamed bread?

"Okay, anyway, I want you to beat the cage drawer for steaming steamed buns, maybe I can teach you, and I can make a better cage drawer."

Zhu Tianqi didn't expect Jiri to agree so happily, but he seemed a little aggressive. He thought that he would bargain on an auspicious day, and he would be content with steamed buns for a month, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain.

Zhu Tianqi was moved, but he also refused to take advantage of the auspicious day, and said: "As the saying goes, ghosts are difficult to send, and gods are difficult to invite, give me three days to ensure that a lifelike Guan Gong is carved, and a sedan chair will be sent to you!" You hold this straw hat, and it is very sunny on the road to shade the sun. ”

As soon as the auspicious day reached the ground, after thanking Zhu Tianqi again, he went back to Zecheng. When he was about to arrive at the city gate, several slaves of Ganfu sat in the tea shed and looked at the crowd entering the city, it turned out that the news of the auspicious day out of the city had already been known by Gan Liang, although he did not know where he went, but after all, he would return to the city, it was better to wait for the rabbit.

Thanks to the straw hat before leaving, Ji Ri lowered the brim of his hat and walked towards the tea shed, and opened his mouth to ask for a bowl of tea. Without waiting for the house slave to look, the shopkeeper of the tea shed came over with a tea bowl to collect the money. Ji Ri said with a throat: "Shopkeeper, I won't tell you, I don't have any money now, but I'm too thirsty to drink this bowl, if you don't dislike it, I will tell a story to everyone, and also gather the popularity of your tea shed." ”

When the shopkeeper heard that there was no money, he was a little embarrassed, and said: "This guest officer, we are working in a tea shed, and we will seek profit, and it is also convenient to travel with passers-by, and this tea is not much money...... Otherwise, you will like this story to everyone, and I don't want the tea money, you can drink as much as you want, but if you don't tell it well, you only have this bowl of tea, and you can give it away as a small shop. ”

Ji Ri laughed, lowered his voice and said: "In this case, I will say it, this is the story of my dream, I will say it, I will listen to it!" It is said that back then, the court was a traitor, the people were struggling to make a living, and there was a righteous man who sold his mung beans and wanted to join the army......"

In a quarter of an hour, the auspicious day from Taoyuan Sanjieyi to warm wine and cut Huaxiong, there were a little idlers around the tea shed to stop, buy tea and listen while drinking. The shopkeeper saw that the business was really improving, and poured a bowl of freshly brewed tea for Ji Ri, which was steaming.

Ji Ri looked at the tea bowl, and then said: "At that time, Guan Erye broke the tranquility, and said, 'I am willing to kill Huaxiong, raise my head to see', aroused Cao Cao's love for talent, poured a glass of freshly scalded wine, and invited Guan Erye to drink it. Who knew that Guan Erye opened his mouth, "Wine and pour it, and come when you go", so he drove his horse out of the city, where the Luan bell rang, the horse went to the Chinese army, Guan Erye mentioned Huaxiong's head, threw it on the ground, and its wine was still warm! ”

After that, Ji Ri picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, and the sound of applause under the tea shed was endless. When the scene calmed down a little, the story of Sanying fighting Lu Bu, and then following Liu Bei to the south and north is narrated. It wasn't until more than an hour later that Ji Ri said that Liu Bei's army was defeated in Xuzhou, and Guan Yu was the wife of the sister-in-law and was surrendered to Cao Cao. I only heard someone in the crowd sneering and said, "What are you doing with the three chapters of the law, but you are also a greedy and afraid of death!" ”

Ji Ri saw that it was one of the house slaves in Ganfu, with one foot on the bench, his face full of resentment. Ji Ri smiled slightly and said: "It is precisely because of this that it can be seen that Second Master Guan is loyal and courageous, and he is one person in eternity!" ”

Immediately afterwards, Guan Yunchang hung the seal and sealed the gold, and the story of passing five levels and killing six generals made everyone's hearts thump. Until Guan Yu was injured by a cold arrow, the people in the tea shed gathered more and more, and the soldiers at the city gate could not continue to sit idly by, and finally ran over to drive everyone away: "What are you doing, so many people have blocked the city gate, hurry up and disperse, be careful to arrest you and have no place to reason!" ”

The soldiers were coaxed, and everyone scattered one after another. On the auspicious day, he left his straw hat in the tea shed and mixed in with the crowd and entered the city. The house slaves of Ganfu were all in the mood of that arrow at this time, such a loyal and unparalleled hero was injured by the villain's secret arrow, but he didn't know what was going on, it was so hard that people scratched their hearts, and they completely forgot to explore the traces of the auspicious day.

Ji Ri, who came to the city, already knew that the steamed bun shop was being targeted, so he took a detour to the hospital and saw that his mother was fine, so he finally put his mind at ease. Seeing the auspicious day coming back, Lu Qingzhou said: "I heard that you were violently beaten by the slaves of Ganfu the day before yesterday, have you ever been injured?" ”
