Chapter 4: Injuries
The man in black who took the lead in breaking into Jin Peng's house didn't wait for the people in the house to speak, and asked loudly, "Who is the owner of Meng Zhongmeng?" ā
"It's down there." Meng Zhong got up and replied, thinking in his heart, I didn't see the head man when I went to visit Mr. Mei at noon, I'm afraid that the head man sent someone to invite him, right?
The man glanced at Meng Zhong and didn't pay attention to it anymore, but turned his gaze to Old Mr. Mei: "This old man must be Priest Mei?" ā
"The old man is Mei Haotian." Mr. Mei also stood up.
"Tied." The man said in a fierce voice.
"What's going on?" Jin Peng stood up violently, "Priest Mei is my guest. ā
"You don't care about this, you can't control it."
"This is my house, how can I not manage it?" Jin Peng's face was flushed with anger.
"The leader commands us like this, and we can't blame it. Since this is your home, let's go outside and tie it up. After the man finished speaking, he turned to Mr. Mei and said, "Priest Mei is so interested, go outside by yourself." ā
When the man had finished speaking, he led the men out.
"Sir, what's the matter?" After the visitor withdrew, Meng Zhong looked at Mr. Mei suspiciously.
"I think the old man knows that the old man is in Mengdu, and he wants to come to embarrass the old man." Old Mr. Mei glanced at Meng Zhong, "Zhong'er, you are so good to protect everyone, I will go out to reason with them." ā
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Meng Zhong hurriedly shook his head.
"It's okay, it's okay." After Mr. Mei finished speaking, he strode out.
Seeing this, Meng Zhong and the others also hurriedly followed.
"What do you want to do to Mr." Walking outside, Meng Zhong questioned the visitor.
"If it doesn't matter, I'll invite Priest Mei to drink tea." The person who came said it, but his hand put a rope on Mr. Mei's body.
And Meng Baiyu, after all, is young and vigorous, and when he saw someone putting a trap on Mr. Mei, he rushed forward to stop it.
"Yu'er can't, and the old man doesn't dare to do anything to the old man." Mei Lao drank first.
Seeing Mr. Mei being tied up, Meng Baiyu was at a loss, and his heart was full of humiliation. Just as he was about to step forward to stop him again, Jin Peng also came out: "Brothers, don't worry, I'll find the leader." ā
"Brother Jin Peng, you don't have to go, the head man has something to say, if Priest Mei's people are angry, you will stay at home and accompany them." When someone came to see Jin Peng come out, he said sternly.
"If I want to go." Jin Peng said angrily.
"Then take a look below." The man said, pointing to the bottom. Only then did everyone discover that the passages under the mountain had been blocked by the black press.
Looking at the back of Mr. Mei being taken away, Meng Baiyu suddenly felt sad in his heart, only saying that Jinzhongshan and Mengdu were close to each other, but he didn't want to be treated like this just after arriving in Mengdu, I am afraid that there will be many twists and turns in the future, right?
"Brothers, don't look at it, go into the house to eat." Jin Peng saw everyone standing in a daze, and comforted, "No matter what happens, the meal always has to be eaten." Besides, Priest Mei will be fine, what does the head man really want to do to him, he did it back then, why should he stay until today? ā
After listening to Jin Peng's words, everyone felt a little relieved in their hearts, so they entered the house. After everyone entered the house, Mrs. Jin immediately set the table for food, and on the table, everyone ate but did not speak. In order to break the dullness, Jin Peng said: "How about a little wine?" ā
"Let's have a drink." Meng Zhongdao.
Mrs. Jin immediately found an empty bowl and put it in front of everyone, Jin Peng poured wine into the bowl, made an appointment for wine, and drank it all when he lifted the bowl. After drinking, he saw that everyone had not yet lifted the bowl, so he said, "The wine is not good, everyone will drink it." ā
Meng Zhong then lifted the bowl and took the lead to drink it all, and after drinking a bowl, he pretended to be unsatisfied: "Good wine, another bowl." ā
Except for Meng Baiyu, who was still young and Meng Zhong did not allow him to drink, everyone else also lifted the bowl, thanked him, and drank it all.
"Brother Jin Peng, why did they arrest Mr.?" After a few bowls of wine, Meng Zhong became drunk, and began to talk more.
"I don't know, but the owner of the village can rest assured, I'll go to the head tomorrow to ask the head." Jin Peng Road.
"Thank you very much." Meng Zhong thanked.
"You're welcome." Jin Peng Road.
As he was talking, he saw You Yang walking in crying: "Brother Zhuang Owner, they arrested Grandpa, what should I do?" ā
"Sister You Yang, it's okay, they just asked Mr. to go to tea, it's okay." Seeing You Yang come in, Meng Zhong stood up and comforted, and after speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Xiao Li and Meng Baiyu, as if to blame someone for telling her the news.
"I didn't say that." Xiao Li said softly.
"I didn't go out either." Meng Baiyu also said softly.
"You didn't tell me, but it spread and you kept it from me. Why do you have to hide it from me? Why did they arrest Grandpa? ā
"They just asked Priest Mei to go for tea, it's fine." Jin Peng also stood up, "Child, mother, you find a pair of dishes and chopsticks for Miss You Yang to eat." ā
Mrs. Jin left the table and went to the kitchen, found the dishes and chopsticks and came back, looked at You Yang who was still standing with tears on his face, and said, "Priest Mei has become a family outside, and her granddaughters are so old." ā
"I picked it up by my grandfather." You Yang wiped away his tears.
"It's really pitiful that the girl has such a sad background." Mrs. Jin seemed to be a little surprised, and hurriedly took You Yang's hand and asked her to sit beside her, "Girl, don't worry, the head man is not a hard-hearted person, and he won't treat Priest Mei like this." Aunt Zhenzhen's eye disease is getting worse now, maybe he still wishes that Priest Mei would appear. ā
"Grandpa doesn't know how to heal, and he can't cure other people's eye diseases, so what's the use of him appearing."
"As soon as he appeared, Aunt Zhenzhen's eye disease might be cured." Mrs. Jin said as she put vegetables into You Yang's bowl.
"I'll clip it myself." Although You Yang said this, he handed over the bowl to pick up the dishes brought by Mrs. Jin, "What does grandpa's appearance have to do with who's eye disease is good or bad?" ā
It turned out that You Yang didn't know about Mr. Mei and Luo Zhen. When Mrs. Jin was about to tell her, Jin Peng glared at Mrs. Jin, and Mrs. Jin had to take back the words that spit out to her mouth: "It's okay, it's okay, the girl eats with peace of mind, and she can rest at ease after eating." ā
"Brother Jin Peng and sister-in-law both said this, I think Mr. should be fine, Sister You Yang will put a hundred hearts." Meng Baiyu also comforted.
Before I knew it, the moon had begun to set in the west, and the people at the intersection of Maoxia had quietly withdrawn, and Meng Zhong led everyone back to the inn.
Back at the inn, everyone didn't speak, and under Meng Zhong's instructions, everyone went back to sleep silently.
However, Meng Baiyu, who was lying on the bed, couldn't sleep, he didn't know what the clansmen were thinking at the moment, but he was always thinking about Mr. Mei's affairs, thinking about it, the sky was already dark, and there was some noise on the street.
"I've got to save my husband." Meng Baiyu said to himself, he thought in his heart, if he didn't save Mr. Mei, You Yang would not forgive him, he had to make You Yang feel that he could be trusted and relied on.
Just do it, Meng Baiyu turned over and got up, and came to the street alone, looking at the gradually lively crowd on the street, he was a little confused, and he didn't know where to go to rescue Mr. Mei.
"It's a." Meng Baiyu scolded secretly, he realized his stupidity, and he didn't inquire clearly, it didn't make sense to come out like a headless fly, but he was unwilling to go back like this, so he simply walked around the street.
Unconsciously, Meng Baiyu deviated from the main street, entered an alley, walked along the alley, at the end of the alley is a slope, to the high place, only to see a blue lake divide the city of Mengdu into two halves, the weeping willows by the lake, like a long-haired woman standing slim, rows of houses neatly arranged, those houses in the dense trees, appear more simple and mysterious, a city wall like a long snake winding and undulating, the entire city of Mengdu tightly wrapped.
"The scenery in Montu is truly beautiful." Meng Baiyu said to himself, he took a deep breath of the wind blowing in his face, "This wind is also refreshing." ā
Looking at the winding path leading to the top of the mountain, Meng Baiyu suddenly had the idea of wanting to take a look at the top of the mountain, wondering if it would be a different scene on the top of the mountain.
"Since you're here, let's go up and have a look." Meng Baiyu made a decision in his heart.
But before he walked for a quarter of an hour, he saw a man coming down from the mountain, and when he approached, he found that the man was holding a steel knife in his hand, and there was no expression on his face.
"Where did you come from, who let you come up?" The man yelled fiercely.
"I ...... No one asked me to come, I wanted to come and see ...... myself" Meng Baiyu felt a little empty.
"If no one asks you to come, that's the end of it, and you can't go any further."
"Whose mountain is this, that you don't let people go up to it?" Meng Baiyu muttered.
"This is Menggu Mountain, don't you know? Where there are drums, anyone can come? Just go back, if you go up further, don't blame me for being polite. ā
"Yes! Be! Meng Baiyu hurriedly replied, "I have just arrived, and I don't know the rules of Mengdu, so I hope my brother will not be surprised." ā
"You're not from Montu?" The visitor suddenly became vigilant.
Meng Baiyu was afraid that the person would be rude, so he hurriedly said: "I came from Jinzhong Mountain, I have nothing to do, I want to come up and have a look, I don't know the rules here, I have a lot of offense, a lot of offense." ā
"Jin Zhongshan is here, and he is with the priest of Namei?"
"Yes." Meng Baiyu replied, "Do you know Priest Mei? ā
"Who doesn't know this, since you are the brother of Priest Mei, I will not embarrass you." "This is a forbidden place, you go back, don't trespass again." ā
"Yes, yes, yes." Meng Baiyu replied and hurriedly went down the mountain.
Back on the street, Meng Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately the man didn't make a move. However, although the man didn't make a move, Meng Baiyu was yelled, and he was very unhappy.
At this time, the street was already bustling, and at a glance, I saw young men and women walking in groups of three or five towards the slope.
"Hey, are you still jumping today?" Meng Baiyu looked at the young man in twos and threes.
"That's nature, don't you know?" Xiao Li's voice suddenly sounded behind Meng Baiyu.
Meng Baiyu turned around and said angrily: "Brother, are you going to scare people to death?" How did you end up here? ā
"Naturally, I'm here to look for your brother, you ran out early in the morning and didn't tell everyone, everyone is in a hurry." Xiao Li reproached.
"I'm not a child anymore, what can I do when I come out, and can I still shoot it down?" Meng Baiyu raised his eyebrows lightly and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, it won't fall." Xiao Li lowered his voice and said.
"It's just that brother, you said that the slope jumping festival has passed, why do these people still go to the slope field?" Meng Baiyu was a little confused.
"Although the Slope Jumping Festival is just one day, it is not actually a day, from the ninth day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month, every day can be the Slope Jumping Festival, and those brothers and sisters can go to the slope field every day to play." Xiao Li explained.
Meng Baiyu pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go too." ā
"We?" Xiao Li was stunned for a moment.
Meng Baiyu didn't care about Xiao Litong's disagreement, he started and left, and Xiao Li had to follow behind.
After walking for a while, Meng Baiyu turned his head to Xiao Li behind him and said, "You go faster, don't keep following me, make yourself like a fart." ā
"Why not go behind? My brother doesn't fart. Xiao Li quipped.
"I just want to... Do you follow or not? Meng Baiyu pretended to be angry.
"Then I'll go ahead." Xiao Li rolled his eyes and strode past Meng Baiyu, "What are we going to do here?" ā
"I suppose I'm going to help you find a girl, and then you won't have time to meddle with my business?" Meng Baiyu laughed.
"Hey, you kid, Hugh is here to take care of my brother's affairs. You want to find it yourself, right? Xiao Li paused for a moment before he said again: "Do you have a crush on a girl, and that girl has come to the slope again, so you have to come." ā
"I only like Sister You Yang." Meng Baiyu said very seriously, his face full of happiness.
"Hey, do you mean it? Seriously, I'll go back to Daddy and my brother and ask them to help you propose. Xiao Li said.
Speaking of You Yang, Meng Baiyu became restless again, although he could see each other every day, but for some reason, he missed her so much in his heart, he just wanted to be with her all the time. He thought that if You Yang went to jump with him at this moment, it would be extremely happy.
Along the way, Meng Baiyu and Xiao Li could see pairs of young men and women on the side of the road talking or laughing and playing, very cheerful. Seeing them passing by, from time to time some people turned their heads to look, and cast provocative glances, as if to say: Look at what to see.
"Envy?" Xiao Li glanced at Meng Baiyu obliquely.
"No envy." Meng Bai Yu said.
"I envy the ghost only if I believe it." Xiaoli Road.
"If my brother is really envious, wait until I see which one is good-looking, and I will grab it." Meng Bai Yu said.
"You think I'm a bandit?"
"No, but it has to be, look at you, you can't find a new wife in your thirties."
"Hey, isn't it my brother?"
"No, it's the truth."
As the two brothers talked, they had entered the main slope field, and the slope field was really lively, although there was no entertainment, the people on the slope field were still having a lot of fun. Although there was no entertainment, there were other tricks, such as eating skewers and noodles, and there were some vendors on the field who sold some things that young people liked, and if the boy fell in love with a girl, he would buy something for her to show his affection.
Walking to a noodle stall, Xiao Li stopped: "Brother, do you eat noodles, you didn't eat early in the morning, you're a little hungry?" ā
"Eat, brother, treat."
"Okay."
The two brothers then found a place to sit down, and the noodle stall owner immediately stepped forward and asked, "Are you eating noodles?" ā
"Yes, two big bowls." Xiao Li said.
"Okay." The stall owner replied and left.
At this time, someone suddenly shouted in the middle of the slope, and looked at it, it turned out to be a handful of people under the flower pole in the field, and on the slippery flower pole, there was a man climbing up, but it was a pity that the man surrendered before he climbed halfway, so he quickly slid down. Then another man started climbing, but only to the point where he gave up.
"What are they doing here?" At this time, the noodle stall owner brought a bowl of noodles over, and Meng Baiyu turned his head and asked.
"They're probably in love with a certain girl at the same time, and they're dueling." The stall owner smiled.
"Brother, do you want to try it too? Climbing is a good job for you. Xiao Li turned his head to Meng Baiyu and said.
"Don't go. There is nothing to climb, and there is nothing to praise the technical content. Meng Baiyu said with disdain.
"No technical content? You're going to climb. Xiaoli quipped, "If you can climb to the top of the pole, which girl takes a fancy to you, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing to choose to be a new daughter-in-law?" ā
"No, no." Meng Bai Yu said with a face, "I just want You Yang." ā
"If you don't go, you won't go, what will you do." Xiao Li said, "Let's go and have a look." ā
"Eat noodles first." Meng Baiyu picked up the chopsticks and lowered his head to eat.
"Little brother, this noodle is delicious?" A sweet voice suddenly sounded in Meng Baiyu's ears.
Hearing the voice, Meng Baiyu raised his head and saw a beautiful girl standing beside him.
"Uh... Do you want to eat it too? Meng Baiyu glanced at the girl.
"I... Little brother please? There was a sly glint in the girl's eyes.
"No problem." Meng Baiyu nodded, turned his head and shouted, "Boss, bring this little sister a bowl." ā
At the moment when Meng Baiyu turned his head, the girl suddenly reached out and pulled the pendant on his chest, and when the pendant arrived, the girl turned around and ran.
"Stop me." Meng Baiyu immediately put down his chopsticks and chased after him.
"Little brother, you're here to pick me up." The girl turned her head and giggled.
"Ah, you little robber." Meng Baiyu was a little anxious, the pendant was a gift from You Yang.
"Don't chase..."Xiao Li's voice came from behind him.
However, Xiao Li's persuasion was useless, and the girl and Meng Baiyu had already run away a few feet away. Xiao Li shook his head helplessly, so he had to stand up and go back.
As the girl ran, she shouted, "Little brother... Little brother..."
On the slope, it began to be quiet, from near to far. There is such a pair of live treasures chasing on the slope field, which is naturally easy to attract the attention of others, and it is still a man chasing a woman. In other words, it was the girl who fell in love with the boy and then robbed the boy of his belongings. After a moment of silence, a deafening voice suddenly erupted: "Woo woo..."
"Hurry, I can't catch up."
"I caught up, I caught up."
Judging from the speed of running, the girl's speed was not under Meng Baiyu, and Meng Baiyu wanted to stop chasing, but since there were so many eyes staring, it was impossible to give up, so she had to secretly increase her strength and chase after her.
It was also at this time that You Yang and You Lian's figures also appeared on the slope field, they also came to find Meng Bai Yu, and at the same time noticed the people chasing on the field, but when it was clear that it was Meng Bai Yu, You Yang's whole person was not good. When You Yang and You Lian went out, Mrs. Meng told her: If you meet a young man who is robbing something, if you can't see it right, don't chase it, which will cause many misunderstandings. It can be seen that Meng Baiyu and the girl on the field should have looked at each other.
You Lian saw the change in You Yang, so she reached out to shake You Yang's hand, but when her hand touched You Yang's hand, she immediately instinctively took it back, obviously You Yang's cold attack was on. At this time, a pair of cold eyes slowly approached You Yang and held You Yang's hand. When You Yang turned his eyes, those cold eyes were also looking at her. You Yang was about to speak, but the cold eyes spoke first: "Don't speak, don't get excited, look down." ā
Those cold eyes belonged to a beautiful woman dressed in white and with a snow-white face. Although the cold eyes were cold, when he looked at You Yang, there was a trace of warmth and kindness in the cold. You Yang nodded slightly, and then looked back at Meng Baiyu, only to see the girl running towards Yang Xiong, a handsome man under the flower pole, and kept shouting: "Brother, brother..."
Suddenly, the girl threw herself forward and fell down in front of Yang Xiong, and before the girl could get up, Meng Baiyu had already caught it. Seeing the girl fall, Meng Baiyu said apologetically: "I really don't want to go, let my sister fall." ā
The girl got up, pointed at Meng Baiyu and said angrily, "You rascal... Woo woo... Brother, this rascal him, he bullied me. ā
After the girl finished speaking, she quickly stood beside Yang Xiong.
"You, do you dare to bully my sister and look for death?" Yang Xiong yelled.
"I..." This sudden change made Meng Baiyu stunned for a while.
"Sister of the elder of the city, you dare to bully." Yang Xiong said angrily.
"It turned out to be an elder who protected the city, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful." Xiao Li also arrived, and when he heard Yang Xiong calling himself the elder of the city, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly hugged his fists.
"Disrespectful? Is this disrespectful? It is clearly immoral. Yang Xiong still looked angry.
As soon as Yang Xiong's voice fell, a man beside him with a nose bridge arched forward, his nose was like a hook, and the man with the hole in his nose immediately stepped forward, and he slapped Meng Baiyu with a palm. This person's name is Gu Tu, and he is a spiritual master under Yang Xiong. When Meng Baiyu saw that the man raised his hand, he wanted to raise his hand to parry, but because of the suddenness of the incident, his lack of combat experience, and his awe of the city guards, he forgot to dodge for a while, and ate a palm of his hand, and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Iā" Gu was stunned, "I didn't use my strength. ā
"It doesn't matter." Yang Xiong said expressionlessly, "Such a person will be beaten and beaten, and it is best to be killed." ā
After Yang Xiong finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and asked the girl for the pendant, and threw it to Meng Baiyu with contempt, and then led the girl and Gu Tu and others to leave the slope.
