The fifteenth ferry winehouse
'Xiao Xiandu' is an almost abandoned dilapidated ferry port on the Tao River, and the general traders who travel to and from Yijing, Liangzhou and other places choose 'Qiuhenggang' to cross the 'Little Wolf Slope' to Shouyang City, so the small ferry port is almost unattended. However, the nearest trail from Qiangtian County to 'Little Wolf Slope' passes through this small ferry, and 'Little Idle Crossing' has naturally become a place for small traders and hawkers in a hurry.
Because of the scarcity of people in the 'small leisure ferry', the only wine house in the ferry is naturally not satisfactory. Nestled on the edge of a deserted ferry, the winehouse's rough wooden terrace hangs in the crystal clear water, the trees on both sides of the river are full of greenery, and the sunlight pours on the sparkling surface of the Tao River.
The owner of the wine house is surnamed Yu, and everyone he knows calls him Boss Yu, who is nearly half a hundred years old, but his hair is black and his eyes are bright.
There are three or four tables in the wine house, because there are no customers, the shopkeeper is sitting in a small corner with nothing to do, looking out the window at the stream in a daze. There is a guqin on the side near the viewing platform, and the body of the piano is dark and red, which seems to be ordinary at first glance. But if you look closely, you will find that the guqin is very different from ordinary instruments, but what is the difference is indescribable.
Boss Yu stood outside the door, a few birds flew by the forest, and Boss Yu muttered: "I didn't expect that the 'little leisure' that has always been remote will be lively today."
"Boss Yu, Boss Yu......" Three or five pedestrians ran over quickly, sweating profusely, and their clothes were all wet, they should have run a long way.
Boss Yu saw the person coming clearly, and smiled: "Boss Jia, Boss Xue, why are you so flustered?" As he spoke, he let the group into the wine house and sat down.
Xiao Er was also clever, and immediately brought a few cups of tea, and the businessmen poured the tea into their stomachs without politeness, and burped happily after drinking. Boss Jia, who was dressed in blue, said through the air: "Boss Yu doesn't know, I waited for a few people to meet a six-town army on the road back to Yangcheng and rushed over, a few days ago I heard that General Wei led his troops to fight with the thief army in the 'Little Wolf Slope', this enemy army must be the backup of the thief army, I have to wait to report to the general as soon as possible to take precautions." With that, he got up and took his leave.
Boss Yu smiled, grabbed Boss Jia and said, "Boss Jia doesn't have to worry, you just run for nothing at this time, it's better to stay and have a cup of tea to rest." ”
Boss Jia obviously didn't notice Boss Yu's calm and relaxed appearance, and said hurriedly: "Boss Yu, this matter is 100,000 urgent, and the slightest delay will be in danger of Shouyang's survival, how can Jia have the heart to drink tea here." ”
Boss Xue was still as careful as a hair, and understood the meaning of Boss Yu's words, and gently shook his hand to Boss Jia and said: "Brother Jia, don't worry, listen to Boss Yu's meaning as if you know the latest battle situation of the Shouyang Army, seeing that Boss Yu is so relaxed and leisurely, the current battle situation must be greatly beneficial to the Shouyang Army, and I hope that Boss Yu will tell you a little bit in detail." ”
Boss Yu looked out the window and said incomprehensibly: "Don't worry, you two, you will know the answer when you have a little rest here." ”
Jia Xue and the others saw that Boss Yu was reluctant to elaborate and had no choice, but the two had been friends with Boss Yu for a long time, and knew that although Boss Yu felt very mysterious, he would definitely not be untargeted, so they settled down and rested.
The three of them were drinking tea and having fun, and a chivalrous man walked in outside the store, this person was stout and burly, almost as tall as the door of the store. The face is like a knife, the jaw is left with a handful of black whiskers combed neatly, the eyes are blazing, and the heroic face is not daring to look at. The knight was holding a tiger full of black and white stripes in his arms, the tiger was only the size of a dog, and he crawled lazily in the arms of the strong man and dozed off. The knight came in and shouted, "Shop, do you have fresh raw meat for sale?" The sound was like a bell, and the eardrum was faintly painful.
Xiao Er hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "The guest officer is sitting inside, our store just killed a wild donkey today, I wonder if the guest officer can like its taste?" ”
The chivalrous man said happily: "That's best, you quickly cut me twenty catties, my little flower is hungry." After speaking, he looked at the little tiger in his arms with pity.
Xiao Er finally understood that the chivalrous man was buying meat for the little tiger in his arms, and he didn't hesitate: "The guest officer sits down, and the fresh meat can be delivered." ”
After a while, Xiao'er brought a large pot of fresh meat with a wooden basin, and before Xiao Er put it away, the little tiger in the arms of the strong man pounced like lightning, comfortably picking up the meat and chewing it.
Xiao Er walked up to the knight and asked, "Does the guest officer have any other orders?" ”
The knight asked, "Little second brother, how much is this twenty catties of fresh meat?" ”
Xiao Er replied: "Guest officer, our country shop, the price is cheap, we only buy five yuan per catty, you give a broken silver." ”
The knight took out a broken silver from his arms and handed it to Xiao Er: "A certain family has been in a hurry for a few days, and only this one broken silver is left, I don't know if the store can enjoy some water and wine to quench the thirst of a certain family." ”
Boss Yu stood up at this time and walked over, bowed and said: "I, Yu Mou, is the boss of this family, today I saw that the chivalrous man loves the tiger like an idiot, and the heroic is abnormal, so I have the heart to make friends, if I don't dislike it, how about you and I have a little sorrel." ”
The chivalrous man stood up and saluted, and said, "The store is kind, and a certain one dares to refuse." ”
Boss Yu instructed Xiao Er to serve some good wine and food, and called Boss Xue and Boss Jia, and the four of them sat around the table, toasted and talked happily.
During the discussion, Boss Yu knew that the chivalrous man's surname was Shi Tianpo, from Qinzhou, and he loved tigers all his life, and he was also called "Tiger Head".
The four of them were drinking wine and talking happily, and countless thieves emerged from the small leisure ferry like ants, Boss Jia stretched out his head and took a sneak look, and secretly shouted in his heart: Mom! So many people, Shouyang County is finished. Boss Jia wiped the beads of sweat on his head, and said to the boss with a slight tremble: "The thieves of the Six Towns do everything to burn, kill and loot, Boss Yu, I think you should close the door of the store first, so as not to cause innocent trouble." Boss Xue also came to agree, and Boss Yu felt right when he heard it, so he called Xiao Er to quickly close the door panel.
The bustling and noisy outside for most of the day did not stop at all, Boss Yu shook his head and whispered: "It seems that the thief army outside is a group of rabble, and this time there will definitely be no return." ”
Boss Jia said blankly: "How can Boss Yu say this?" ”
Boss Yu replied: "Listen carefully, for so long, the thief army has not crossed the Tao River, you can imagine the slow speed of the march, the loose discipline of the army, they were going to the 'Little Wolf Valley' to rescue the trapped army of the starling, but such a march is only afraid that the rescue will not be able to turn against the sheep." ”
Boss Xue listened to it and admired: "Boss Yu is right, and immediately let the old brother suddenly open the clouds, admire, admire." On the side, Boss Jia looked at Boss Yu thoughtfully, and his face was full of admiration: "I didn't expect that Boss Yu, who is silent on weekdays, is a master who does not show mountain dew, but the younger brother is gone." ”
Boss Yu smiled and said: "The two bosses are laughing at me, I'm just talking nonsense, and I'm not better than others." ”
The three of them talked softly, the chivalrous Shi Tianpo seemed to have no interest in their conversation, one person mentioned the wine jar and drank it on the side, and he didn't dare to disturb the conversation of the three people, in fact, he didn't want to talk to them, he was worried that if he woke up the three of them and came over to grab wine with him, wouldn't it kill him?
Suddenly, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the screams of the thieves rang out one after another.
"Oh no, it's an ambush, run for your life."
"There is no way to escape, there are officers and soldiers on all sides, surrender, I heard that the Shouyang army does not kill the ...... of the soldiers"
This was followed by the sound of iron hooves that shook the sky, "Those who descend will not be killed...... Those who descend don't kill ......" roared all the way away.
Boss Jia asked softly: "Could it be that the Shouyang Army has been ambushed here a long time ago, just waiting for the thief army to enter the trap." Boss Xue nodded and said: "I don't think eight or nine are far from ten, but the Shouyang Army was not so powerful before, how could it be so fierce in the blink of an eye that the Six Towns Army cried and called his mother." ”
Boss Yu smiled: "You don't know, some time ago, the thief army Ge Yuantong led an army of 150,000 troops from Jinchang all the way to kill, and the momentum was like a broken bamboo to capture Dieshi Pass into Qiangtian County, the thief army general Gong Yang led the forward 30,000 to attack Shouyang City, Shouyang Commander Han Qiong went out of the city to meet the enemy ambush and the whole army was annihilated, and the dying Han Qiong was rescued by his subordinates, and the thief army stepped up the siege. When Shouyang City was in danger, a man named Long Yi led 300 cavalry to suddenly rush into the enemy formation, killing the enemy army and fleeing, and the thief general Gong Yang was also beheaded under the horse. After Shouyang City was relieved, Tian Bang asked Long Yi to temporarily act as General Wei to lead the Shouyang sergeant has been the thief army, although General Long is young but good at using strategy, Ge Yuantong is unwilling to fail to ask Yuan Huazi for help, Yuan Huazi under the command of two fierce generals personally led 80,000 thieves to support Ge Yuantong, Ge Yuantong led 150,000 troops to kill Shouyang City again, General Long'Little Wolf Slope' set up an ambush, defeated the thief army, surrendered 70,000 thief army, the thief army Tiger General Lei Gong also surrendered to the Shouyang Army, General Long besieged the remnants of the Zhang's eight brothers but did not attack. Now that the Shouyang Army has appeared here, I see that nine times out of ten, the Zhang's troops have fallen into General Long's pocket. ”
"I can't imagine that such a person appears in Shouyang City, this is the blessing of the people of Shouyang, the blessing of the Great Zhou." Boss Jia praised from the bottom of his heart.
At this time, Shi Tianpo, who was drinking, couldn't help but be curious, and came over and asked, "What Boss Yu said is true?" ”
Boss Yu said: "Is my Yu a casual person?" Now the entire Shouyang people are singing to each other that the army led by General Long is a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general. ”
