Chapter 179: Xixia Town
The money shopkeeper sat at the front, driving the carriage, and the whip in his hand was very flexible, and he and Mr. Sun sat a little behind, unaffected.
All the way is the official road, quite smooth, there are a few people scattered, but not much, the car casually chatted about some interesting stories from all over the world, but it is not boring.
The money shopkeeper is really good, the whip is rarely waved, and the horse walks forward smoothly, almost without much bumps, and now he directly turns around, looks at the two of them and says, "I think that Tao Jun is actually suffering a loss."
Mr. Sun looked at Ren Xing, and saw that his expression had not changed, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, after all, it is my own home, and it is normal to take a look after opening it, so Xiao Zuo is an outsider, so you still have to be cautious in handling things."
"Yes, if you try it at Zuo Cheng's house, it is estimated that the result will be different."
The shopkeeper said with some pity, he liked Tao Jun with a bright head, but Zuo Cheng was a little stunned and couldn't look at it.
"So the money shopkeeper, are you willing to let Xiao Zuo unlock the lock for you, or are you willing to let Xiao Tao help you unlock the lock?" Let me laugh directly.
Along the way, the three of them were already quite familiar with each other, and knew that the money shopkeeper was a pawnshop shopkeeper, and most of the locks were made by this old man Tao.
The money shopkeeper was also stunned for a moment, and then sighed, "But rules are rules after all."
"That's true, the rules are bigger than the sky." Mr. Sun also said that he also understood that as long as Tao Jun did not erase this impression, it was estimated that it would be difficult to have a lock-picking business.
The shopkeeper recalled the past and said directly: "I think that all walks of life in Xixiakou back then, which one had no rules? Those who don't follow the rules die early."
"It's a pity that I've never seen the pomp and circumstance before, and I don't know what it was like here." Mr. Sun was a little fascinated.
Let me go also scared him a little wickedly, and said directly: "I remember that there were bandits here before, and almost no one dared to walk alone on this road except for those heroes."
"Could it be that this path is the legendary point of no return?" Mr. Sun was very interested in this information and hurriedly asked.
In the local population, it was all good words about Xixia Town, like this kind of black history before, but no one mentioned it in his ears, only outsiders occasionally said half of it, and they didn't know before and after.
"Isn't it, there are many heroes in the Funiu Mountains, starting from Lijiagou and going all the way to the Taiping Mountain and Heifeng Ridge in front, which is where the green forest is stationed, and it was there that the Taiping King set up his home." Ren Xing pointed forward.
Mr. Sun glanced forward rather fearfully and said, "Quietly, it is said that there is still Taiping Mountain now."
"Ahem." The money shopkeeper also coughed hurriedly.
Mr. Sun looked at Ren Wuxing and kept silent, but he leaned over and urged, "Hehe, I haven't finished talking yet."
"Let's enter the city here, it should be the west exit, right? If you enter the west exit, you will find a ghost street." Let me do it is also talking about sex, but the voice is still a little suppressed.
He also directly introduced: "Originally, someone killed each other on that street, and the two families died together, and there was no one alive, so it was called the same way back. . .
Later, the road became more and more dangerous, so it was renamed Street of No Return, and then it was simply called Ghost Street, and the best deals in it were the armory shops and coffin shops."
Mr. Sun was a little fascinated by this bloody past, and said directly: "The bonus under the archway, the girl in Yihong Mansion, the big drama of Kuailu Pavilion, the weapons on the way back, and the corpses on the bleak river have created the city that never sleeps at the mouth of the West Gorge."
"The three major squares of Xixia Town, that is the Pinjin Grotto, the emperor has it here, the emperor does not have it, there are also here, it is said that the first assistant in the Chenghua period came here, and he was happy." Let me go straight to it.
The money shopkeeper sighed: "Alas, now that I am lonely, I have no business before."
"yes, it's a pity that I didn't see it back then." Mr. Sun is a little sorry.
Ren Wuxing looked at him, and he didn't have martial arts, if he arrived in Xixia Town back then, there would be only a dead end, but he didn't say anything, but asked curiously, "Mr. Sun is not a local?"
"Here are people from Shaoxing, Zhejiang,
Storytellers make a living in the Green Pavilion." Mr. Sun hurriedly said.
The shopkeeper asked Mr. Sun again, "After Sui Tang finished, which one will he talk about next?"
Mr. Sun's face became bitter, "Alas, the Green Pavilion can't hold on, how can you have the heart to talk about it."
The money shopkeeper's horse slowed down, turned his head again, and said, "No, I think you have a good meal there."
Mr. Sun became obscene, and said directly: "That's because the opposite side is Yihong Mansion, which is soft and fragrant."
"Hahahaha, the food is fragrant." The money shopkeeper also smiled and said.
Seeing the fork in the road from afar, Mr. Sun looked at the opposite hill and said, "The Chenghuang Temple here is estimated to be poor, and next year, a Chenghuang Temple will be built in the east of the town, which is to worship Xiangmingong, and you will not run more than 30 miles to worship at Baishi Bridge in the future."
"A temple was built in the east of the city?" Shopkeeper Qian was a little surprised, and asked with a little suspicion, "Didn't we say that the county lord of Jutan here has changed the seal, and Xixia Town has not become a county?"
"Who knows, anyway, it is a good thing to be able to erect the sacrifice of Xiangmin Gong." Mr. Sun said directly.
"Alas, bad luck, the county lord of Jutan has just been canonized, and the Qiu county order planned to promote Xixia Town to the county, but I didn't expect the county lord to pass the door, and the horse died, I wanted to ease down after two years, and then make plans, but I didn't think that the county lord didn't keep the woman's way, so he remarried directly, and even the title changed." The money shopkeeper sighed.
If it weren't for the fact that these people didn't accept Wanghua, Xixia Town would have become a normal county long ago, how could it be like this, it was still a town.
I didn't expect that the fiefdom of the county lord of Jutan was in this Xixia Town, which could be regarded as a meeting by fate.
"Yes, Neixiang is several times larger than other counties, so it should be directly independent into a county, don't you think Pinggu County will be directly separated?" Mr. Sun said directly.
"Pinggu County was beaten by Liu Qianjin, otherwise how could it be so easy." The money shopkeeper looks old, but this momentum is quite strong.
Seeing that this old man was quite arrogant, Ren Xing also directly helped: "Hahahaha, that's it, you still have to kill it, otherwise it's not so easy."
Mr. Sun was not interested in this topic, and asked instead, "Where are you going?"
Seeing that he had reached a fork in the road, the money shopkeeper slowed down his horse a little faster and hurriedly said, "I have to go to Feilong Valley to pick up New Year's goods, and I will order a pig there, so I won't go back to the town first."
"You're so rich, why don't you let the guys come." Mr. Sun also quipped.
"Alas, those people are too frizzy, you said pig blood, intestines, such a good thing, just don't want it, what a pity." The money shopkeeper said directly.
