Chapter 53: Strict Master and High Apprentice
Qiao Zheng and Reheimu rushed to the capital, did not agree to follow happily, happily pretended to agree to go to the ancestor first, coaxed Zu Mureti to race the horse halfway, deliberately left behind, seeing that he was unprepared, he turned the horse's head and walked in reverse, Yu Minfeng guessed right, he really went to chase the master.
There are still two days to go to the capital, happy to ride a horse and whip all the way to gallop, the sky is getting dark, the stomach also sings an empty city plan, see a town in front of him, and drive the horse in.
A huge mountain stone on the side of the road is engraved with the two big characters "auspicious clouds".
Xiangyun Town seems to be bigger than Yiyun Town, the streets are lined with shops, the roofs of every house are smoky, it is almost the end of the day, it is time for dinner, he touched his empty stomach, in order to catch up with the master, he has not eaten lunch, he is already hungry at the moment.
After walking around the town, I finally chose the best small restaurant, let Xiao Er lead the horses to feed some feed, and went into the lobby and ordered a few small dishes casually.
Xiao Er's movements were fast, and he brought the food up in a short time, and said diligently: "This son, your food is here, you use it slowly." “
Xing Xing asked, "Xiao Er, how many restaurants like this are there in your town?" “
Xiao Er replied: "Childe, we are a small town, not as good as those big state capitals, in this town, my restaurant is the best, do you see, there is still accommodation on it, and our rooms are clean, several other small restaurants, all in tatters, how can there be my family." ”
He asked happily, "Then did you have any guests in your house today?" ”
Xiao Er said: "Yes, my house is full every day, and the business is very good." ”
Happy asked: "Then let me ask you, is there a tall middle-aged man with blue eyes staying in the room?" ”
Xiao Er nodded without hesitation: "Yes, yes, it was a quarter of an hour before you came in, but there were three of them, and two of them looked like us, both with black eyes, but they were also dignified and majestic." ”
Happy suddenly rejoiced, it seems that the three people in Xiao Er's mouth are hot black wood, the master and the son are empty, he is secretly happy that he is crooked.
"That boy also wants to live in your store, but there is still a vacant room?"
Xiao Erxi said: "Yes, yes, I will take you to see the room when I turn around." ”
"Yes?" glared at him happily and said, "Just now, did you still say that it was full every day?" Why do you say that there are vacancies at this time? ”
Xiao Er "hehe" smiled: "It's not that if you come, it's full." ”
Xing Xing pouted at him, took out a few copper coins from his arms and threw them to him, and said, "I'll eat first." ”
Xiao Er took the money, overjoyed, and became more and more attentive: "Hey, son, you use it slowly, you use it slowly." The small one will show you if there is still a dish that is cooked. ”
After dinner, Xiao Er carried a kettle, went upstairs with joy, and asked happily in a low voice:
"Where do those three live?"
When Xiao Er saw him whispering, he also lowered his voice with interest: "They live in rooms 3, 4, and 5. ”
Happy asked: "Is there anyone in room six?" ”
Xiao Er: "No one, childe, do you choose room six?" ”
Happy asked: "What about room two?" ”
Xiao Er: "No one, do you choose No. 2?" ”
Happy to have a feeling of being deceived, gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you say that it was full when I came?" ”
"Hehe," Xiao Er smiled awkwardly and lowered his voice, "It's almost full." ”
Happy pouted, didn't bother to bother with him, and said, "Then number two." ”
Xiao Er took him to the door of the room with a wooden sign with the word "two" on the door and opened the door.
Although the room is a little old, it is still refreshing. Xiao Er put the kettle on the table and said with a smile on his face: "Childe, I didn't lie to you this time, this room is absolutely clean, the tea is here for you, and I will give you water to wash later." ”
happily looked at the wooden walls on the four walls of the house, waved his hand casually, and Xiao Er withdrew.
Happy closed the door, and quickly ran to the wooden wall adjacent to room three, squinting his eyes to find the gap between the boards, and pressed his ears to the plank to see if he could hear anything. However, to his disappointment, the planks were old, but they were so tightly fitted that he could not find a single crack at all, and he did not hear any sound.
He touched his chin in frustration, his eyes rolling.
Now it was dark, there were candles lit in the room, and he was glad that there was a thorn on his buttocks, and he could not sit down at all, so he opened the door and poked his head out, and there were a few lanterns lit under the porch, and no one moved, and he crept out.
He walked around the door of room No. 3, 4 and 5, and saw that there were candles burning in each room, but there was no human figure in sight, and finally, he went to room No. 5 and looked in the window with his eyes in it, but still he couldn't see anything, he slipped to the door again, squinted his eyes and peeked, the upper gap was small, the lower half seemed to be a little larger, and the dim light of the candle came through the crack in the door.
He crouched down and looked in through the gap, as if he saw a black shadow swaying, and the light in the room seemed to be blocked by something, and he was busy looking closely......
Suddenly, the door opened, and the hem of a blue brocade robe and a pair of big feet wearing black deerskin boots appeared in front of him, and his happy heart stopped beating for a moment, and his body suddenly stiffened.
"Stinky boy, what are you doing sneaking around?" A familiar scolding sound came from overhead.
Happy didn't dare to raise his head, and said nonsense: "Ah, that, just now I saw a cockroach crawling in, I caught a cockroach, yes, catch a cockroach." ”
He actually found it on the ground seriously, reached out and dusted the upper of the man's shoes, and said flatteringly: "I didn't climb on your feet, I'll help you take a look, don't bite your ......"
Before he finished making up nonsense, his right ear had been pinched, and the man scolded: "Still cockroaches? I think you're a cockroach, a daring cockroach king! ”
He screamed happily and painfully: "Ouch, ouch, it hurts, Master, let go, it hurts." ”
"Do you know it hurts? I see you're getting bolder and bolder, and you dare to follow me, huh? Qiao Zheng grabbed him by the ear and dragged him into the room.
Happy grinning and shouting: "Master, it really hurts, let go, my ears are going to fall off!" ”
"Now I know that it hurts, and I don't have a proper shape all day long, and I open my mouth to be nonsense, hum!"
Qiao Zheng finally let go of his hand, rubbing his ears vigorously with one hand, crying and mourning: "Master, you are really ruthless......
As soon as he turned around, he saw Rekuroki and Zixu looking at him with a grin.
The happy face with a flushed face secretly complained bitterly, and said in his heart: This is a big mess, the most miserable picture of this son has been seen by them, and then think about it, it's just that, anyway, I saw it, it's a big deal.
He coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, clasped his fists at the three of them, and said, "I'm glad to give Master, Hot Senior, and Uncle Zixu a salute." ”
"Hahaha...... "Rehemo laughed loudly, "I'm happy, why did you come along?" ”
Re Kuroki's smile immediately made the embarrassment in his heart disappear in an instant, and he said happily: "Re senior, I'm here to protect my master." ”
"Whoever wants you to protect, you can protect your own life to Amitabha." Qiao Zheng didn't appreciate it at all and glared at him.
Rehemu smiled: "Lord, this is a bad word, I think that it is really a great blessing in life to have an apprentice like this, if my disciple can care about me so much, Reheiki is relieved in his heart." ”
Qiao Zheng asked: "Let me ask you, what about Min Feng?" ”
Happy: "She took her grandmother to see her ancestor hotly." ”
Qiao Zhenghu said suspiciously: "She can let you go?" ”
Happy Pi nodded thickly: "...... Well, yes, no, let's go. ”
Qiao Zheng didn't believe it at all: "How is it possible? I know Min Feng's temperament best, and she will never let you go. ”
Happy and confidently said: "But she found out that I was not there, and she didn't see her come to chase me back, so naturally she let me go......."
Qiao Zheng glared: "Hey, you are still reasonable, I knew that you must have escaped secretly." ”
happily looked at Qiao Zheng's wide eyes, and said crampedly: "Master, if you still put those two pieces of meat on your eyelids, look at your eyes, I'm really a little scared." ”
Qiao Zheng scolded: "What, if you don't want to see it, it's clean, right?" ”
Zi smiled and said: "Lord Wang, since you are happy, then come with us, one more person has more strength, his martial arts are not weak, and it is no problem to protect himself." ”
"That's it, it's still Uncle Zixu and the hot seniors are reasonable."
Happy that the wind was turning very fast, and immediately began to pat the two of them, Hot Kuroki couldn't help but laugh "haha".
Qiao Zheng asked Xingxing, "How did you know we would be here?" ”
happily said: "The nearest town within a radius of 100 miles is such a town, and the best restaurant in the town is this one." ”
Qiao Zheng said: "Well, you kid is smart. After that, I couldn't help but smile a little.
"Okay, since you're here, let's go together, but I have something to say first, the capital is not as good as Yiyun Town, let you come nonsense, give me honesty, behave properly, don't make trouble for me, do you hear?"
Happy nodded seriously and heavily: "Master rest assured, happy to be waiting before and after the saddle, obediently protecting you." ”
Qiao Zheng said: "It's about the same, if you find out that you are disobedient, I will immediately ask Zixu to arrest you back." ”
"Also, if you want to peep, you have to move smaller, more hidden, so that the big shadow is sneaky in the window, and anyone with long eyes can see it. If there are other martial arts masters in this room, your life may be gone. ”
Happy eyes: "Master, so you can see me?" ”
"How fresh? If I can't see you, I know you're outside? ”
Qiao Zheng waved at Xing Xing with a helpless face: "You come, you come, I'll go out, let you see what you did just now." ”
He walked straight out, and sure enough, he saw a figure slowly "floating" past and then slowly "floating" back on the window, and then the figure was getting closer and closer, and a black head was getting bigger and bigger, and finally clinging to the window, obviously trying to peek in through the gap.
Every action is exactly the same as his actions, and he suddenly felt a tingling of his scalp, and his face was miserable, and his facial features were squeezed into the middle, if he pinched a few times in the middle, I am afraid that it will become a bun fold.
Qiao Zheng walked in again, glared and said, "Did you see it?" My young master, can't you see those lanterns hanging in the corridor? There is only one candle lit in the house, and the outside is brighter than the inside, so your shadow will naturally shine on the window. I can't do it as a thief, if I get out with a knife, do you say you still have a small life? ”
Gao Gao finally understood what his problem was, and whispered with a face full of shame: "Master, I was careless. ”
Rehemu smiled: "Child, don't blame the prince for reprimanding you, the so-called strict master produces a high apprentice, your master is strict with you in order to improve, we were often spanked by the master when we practiced martial arts." You are still young, and there is still a lot to learn, so you must be careful and observe what you do in the future, understand? ”
Happy knew that he had made a mistake, and he didn't dare to play anymore, so he clenched his fists with a serious face and shook it deeply: "Yes, happy to write it down." ”
