Chapter 8: Stop in Nanyang

Finally out of the city gate, Qu Gao poked his head out of the carriage, and saw that Xiangyang City was out of sight, so he got out of the carriage with confidence, jumped onto the white horse, and said to Zhao Che: "Go down!" ”

Zhao Che's face darkened, and he said angrily: "The surname is Qu, you just cross the river and tear down the bridge like this!" Qu Gao took out a tael of silver from his arms, stretched out his hand and said, "Obedient, uncle will give you a reward, go down!" Not to be outdone, Zhao Che took out five taels of silver and handed it over: "Uncle is richer than you, you go down!" Qu Gao said in his heart, if I take out another ten taels of silver, he will definitely take more, then I will take his silver, let him ride a little longer, anyway, he will soon set up camp and rest.

"Ten taels, go down."

"Thank you, uncle!" Zhao Che snatched the silver, rolled over and fell to the ground, sprinting two steps, and climbing onto his own horse.

"You!" Qu Gao suffered a loss, and his mood was not so good, so he simply stuffed his head and participated in the study of the martial arts of the actual combat with everyone in the past few days, Chang Fuhai blade Wanjun, Zhong Li Chi Gun walked the dragon, although Tian Hong and Qu Gao used the same sword, but Qu Gao's sword moves were far less subtle than Tian Hong's, such as flowing clouds and water, but majestic. Qu Gao has been practicing martial arts diligently since he was a child, and his foundation has been firm, and he has been practicing with them in the past few days, and his martial arts are becoming more and more sophisticated. And several people are older than ten years old, seeing that Qu Gao is diligent and studious, and is willing to teach, although they have only been together for a few days, several people have become acquainted, and they are also teachers and friends.

Fortunately, the road was safe, did not meet the bandits and Hulu, returned to Nanyang, transported the grain and rice to Zhu's house to unload, the Zhu family father and daughter were very happy, to open up the trade route of Xiangyang, for them is really thirst-quenching near water, this trip back and forth only took ten days, according to this speed, Nanyang City does not need two months of rice prices to rise!

"Heroes work hard, rest in the city for a few days." At the banquet, Zhu Shi toasted everyone one by one with a smile on his face, and after more than ten days of recuperation, Zhu Shi's body seemed to be fine. There was no singing or dancing at the banquet, only everyone was seated together and ate the meal.

After the banquet, a few side rooms were cleaned up in a small courtyard east of Zhu's house, and they were temporarily arranged to rest there. There are only four rooms in the small courtyard, although it is not big, it is very delicately decorated, Chang Fuhai and the three of them each occupy one, and Qu Gao and Zhao Che are assigned to one.

After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, Qu Gao came to the courtyard and practiced martial arts alone, at this time the night had fallen, but everyone was not sleepy, and they came out of the room one after another. Chang Fuhai and the three of them sat around a stone table, quietly watching Qu Gao practice martial arts, and after a while, Chang Fuhai asked Zhao Che, who was leaning on the pillar: "Xiao Zhao, what do you think of Xiao Gao's martial arts?" ”

Zhao Che stood up straight, bowed slightly and said: "The three seniors have taught each other, although Xiao Gao is diligent, he still lacks the heat, if he perseveres, he may be successful in March." ”

After resting for more than a month, Zhu Shi did not let everyone set off again, Chang Fuhai and others had long been idle, and went to find Zhu Shi every day, and Zhu Shi always pushed the committee for various reasons.

Qu Gaoke has not been idle for a moment, he has been obsessed with martial arts for a month, and he has been learning from several seniors day and night, and his understanding of martial arts has reached a higher level. He was thin and thin, a month of hard work and hard work also made his physique stronger, and now he is high, fading away from the fledgling immaturity, the peach-petal-like face wheel gradually emerges angular and angular, his eyes are a little more sharp, and his body is more and more straight.

On this day, Qu Gao was in the courtyard and Zhong Li Chi was fighting, Zhong Li Chi's gun was like thunder, a month ago Qu Gao couldn't pass ten moves under him, and now the two of them are doing their best, dismantling each other more than 100 moves, and there is no winner or loser. After fighting for a while, he saw Chang Fuhai coming back from the hospital with his head down, so he stopped to rest and stepped forward to ask.

Or because Zhu Shi refused to send another caravan, Qu Gao was busy practicing martial arts in the past month, and he didn't ask about these things, at this time, he thought about it carefully, and he didn't feel that it was appropriate, "Master Zhu refuses, where is Miss Zhu?" Chang Fuhai slapped his head suddenly, "How did I forget Ah Yan, she is much happier than her father, I'll go find her!" Then he turned and walked out of the courtyard.

After Chang Fuhai left, Zhong Lichi's face became more and more pale, and he said in a deep voice: "Xiao Gao, I'm a little worried. Qu Gao understood what he meant, and nodded. Zhong Lichi said: "I defected to Zhu Shi and temporarily settled my young son in Zhu's mansion, I don't think Zhu Shi can act for long, I have to bring Jun'er back as soon as possible." Before the words fell, Chang Fuhai walked into the courtyard with a scolding mouth, "Zhongli, Xiao Gao, what about people?" All the fucking out! ”

"What's wrong, big brother?" When the four of them heard that something was wrong, they all came to the courtyard.

"I didn't know until today that Ah Yan was given to King Nanyang as a concubine by the old immortal a month ago." Chang Fuhai hated, and said: "I think the surnamed Zhu refuses to send another caravan, because he is afraid that if we raise the price of rice in Nanyang back, he will not be able to profit from it, and even his own daughter can be given away, this surnamed Zhu is really a pig and a dog!" ”

Everyone was also stunned, Zhu Yan was generous and decent, and he would never lose to a man, when he signed the deed, he probably trusted Zhu Yan, but now she is no longer in Zhu Mansion, Zhu Shi doesn't know what ghost fetus is hiding, and everyone doesn't know what to do for a while.

"Why don't we do it?" Zhong Lichi proposed, seeing that everyone was silent, he sighed again: "It's just that the deed ......"

"I'll go to Nanyang Wangfu tonight and go to Miss Zhu to ask for clarification!" Qu Gao said.
