Having won the windfall of five hundred taels for nothing, Yu Ren was naturally very happy. But he has always been used to being a chic person, and he didn't think much about it, so he carried the silver and entered the city with Cao An and Cao Wenzhao. After entering the city, the three of them found a good inn by the city gate and stayed there.

With the five hundred taels of silver, Yu Ren immediately changed his plan again. It turned out that what they planned was that when they arrived in Hangzhou, they would immediately find a boat to go to Songjiang and go to Songjiang Mansion to find his uncle. However, now that there is the five hundred taels of Chengyi given by Jiang Yuanwai, there is no need to rush to Songjiang. Yu Ren decided to have a good time in Hangzhou for a few days, and as for where to go after that, he still hasn't figured out yet. Anyway, I won't go home right away, or go to my uncle's house. He hasn't had enough of it!

However, Cao Wenzhao didn't have the heart to visit the beautiful scenery of West Lake with them.

stayed at the inn for one night, and early the next morning, Cao Wenzhao proposed to say goodbye to Yu Ren and the two.

Yu Ren asked him where he was going? Cao Wenzhao said two words firmly: "Liaodong." ”

Yu Ren knew that Cao Wenzhao was going to take revenge. He remembered that time, Cao's mother had said that their enemy was called Li Yongfang. Yu Ren didn't know who this Li Yongfang was at first. Later, I learned from Cao Wenzhao's mouth. He was the one who threw the city to Nurhachi, the former Ming Fushun guerrilla general.

"I know you've long since decided to do this. But I'll say one more thing. Revenge can only be outwitted, not forced, and in case there is no chance to attack, it cannot be forced. You know, I'm born to be useful. Keep your useful body and do a bigger business in the future. Don't give away a useful body for revenge. Remember: it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. ”

After speaking, Yu Ren asked Cao An to take out the Cheng Yi given to them by Jiang Yuanwai, and took out two hundred taels and handed them to Cao Wenzhao. Cao Wenzhao refused to ask for it, and finally refused to accept one hundred taels.

Yu Ren and Cao An sent Cao Wenzhao to the passenger ship at the canal wharf, and then returned to the inn.

Suddenly, there was no one else around, and Yu Ren felt that the atmosphere in the room was suddenly deserted. He decided to go outside.

So, after lunch, Yu Ren first took Cao An to the West Lake for a turn. Although it is around the vernal equinox, the West Lake is full of spring, but there are not many tourists. In this era, tourism development is far from the point of flooding. Traveling, for most people, is still just a luxury. The two turned around for a while, and then turned to the small square at the foot of Wu Mountain.

This Wu Mountain, is still the highest mountain by the West Lake in Hangzhou, when the emperor of the Jin Kingdom was finished, there was a poem of "raising millions of troops on the West Lake, the first peak of Wu Mountain on the Prancing Horse". It can be seen that the status of Wushan in Hangzhou. At the foot of Wu Mountain, there is the old street of the Southern Song Dynasty. It is also the most prosperous place in Hangzhou at present.

Yu Ren walked through the streets and alleys where people came and went, and he felt the faint desolation caused by parting gradually dissipating from his body.

Yu Renxin walked down the street, occasionally keeping an eye on the shops on both sides of the street, as if looking for something. This was the third time they had passed through here. Cao An, who followed him, deserved to be a roundworm in his stomach.

"Childe, don't bother. I've seen it a long time ago, and in addition to the two blacksmith shops, there are three food stalls. It doesn't look like Miss Li's business. Looking at Miss Li's appearance, their family must be a big deal. Cao An said.

Yu Ren glanced at Cao An in surprise, but did not speak. Cao An's words are not bad at all. That's exactly what he had in mind.

Since the first step in Hangzhou, Yu Ren has remembered the name that he will never forget day and night, "Li Yu". However, he knew very well that it would be difficult for them to see each other again. Even if Li Yu is still staying in Hangzhou City, the probability of them meeting is less than 1 in 10,000.

However, even so, Yu Ren still did not give up.

The sky slowly became gloomy, and Yu Ren looked up. It looks like it's going to rain. At this time, the south of the Yangtze River has long passed the February when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and it has entered March.

"Let's go!" Yu Ren whispered to Cao An.

The two walked back down the street. When passing by a clearing at the foot of Wu Mountain, I saw a group of people gathered there, as if they were watching something lively. Yu Ren had no intention of watching this excitement, but Cao An's words, "Maybe you can meet Miss Li and them here!" Yu Ren involuntarily moved his feet over.

Approaching, Yu Ren stretched out his head to look into the crowd. I saw a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, who was busy with something down, and a chair was placed in front of him. The Ringman was tinkering with something that looked like fireworks on the ground. Yu Ren couldn't guess what this young man wanted to do for a while.

"What is he doing?" asked Cao An to a nearby onlooker.

"Who knows? I heard that he was going to fly to the sky in this chair. "That's towards Cao Andao.

Yu Ren originally didn't care about this excitement, but when he heard this person's words, he suddenly became interested. Because of this man's words, he suddenly remembered a historical story. It is said that in the Ming Dynasty, someone did such an experiment, he tied himself to a chair, and wanted to send himself to the sky with a rocket tied to the four legs of the chair.

Yu Ren no longer remembers the details of this story, but he has never forgotten what happened to the man - in the end, he was thrown to his death. Could it be that the person in the story is the young man in front of him?

Just as Yu Ren was searching for fragments of the story in his mind, the young man in front of him had already tied four straight-shaped fireworks to the four legs of the chair. The young man tied up four fireworks and said to another fat man with a fat head and big ears on the side, "Why, you can watch it." I'll be sitting in a chair in a moment. If these four fireworks can send me to heaven, you will pay me a hundred taels. ”

The fat man looked a year or two older than the young man. Behind him, there were two people who looked like family members. Yu Ren, who already has a rough understanding of this world, judging from this person's clothing, this person should be the son of a relatively wealthy businessman.

The fat man glanced at the young man disdainfully, "Don't worry." I, Xu Shichang, have always spoken and counted. Don't say it's one hundred taels, even if it's five hundred taels, as long as you can do it, I, Xu Shichang, will never rely on you.

But I'm also going to have to say ugly things ahead. If you can't do it, then the ten taels that your father owes me will be doubled to thirty taels. I, Xu Shichang, saw that you Huang Han was a backbone, so I gave you this chance. When the time comes, if it fails, you can't deny it. If you can't pay back the money, you will use your shop. ”

"Don't worry, although I, Huang Han, am poor, I have never relied on my debts." After speaking, Huang Han walked to the wooden chair that had been tied to the fireworks. He also had a large kite in his hand.

Huang Han sat on the chair, tied his legs to the chair with a rope, and then tied a slipknot on it, and tried to untie it. Then he sat down and picked up the kite again.

None of the onlookers knew what he meant, but they just thought that they had never seen this excitement before, but it was very interesting.

"Let's light the fire! Old Five," Huang Han sat down and said to another thin young man on the side.

The thin boy picked up the torch in his hand and lit it with a fire fold. However, his hand was trembling slightly, and he refused to reach for a moment to light the fire.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Haven't we already done it a few times? Huang Han comforted.

When the thin boy heard this, he seemed to regain some confidence a little, and then he took a step forward. He was about to light the fire when he heard a sudden shout from behind him, "Slow! ”

When the thin boy heard this, he hurriedly took a step back. Turn your head to look. I saw that a young scholar of eighteen or nineteen years old had stepped out of the crowd. This scholar is none other than Yu Ren.

"Little brother. It's too dangerous for you to do this. You know, if one of the four fireworks under you blows up, you'll be shattered! Yu Ren's original intention was to prevent this teenager from doing such a dangerous behavior. However, before he finished his words, he saw that the crowd that had been tightly gathered on the side suddenly dispersed. Someone also scolded while retreating, "Damn, I won't say a word if I blow it up." I want to let Lao Tzu accompany the funeral! ”
