Chapter 42: The Qiu Brothers
When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help.
Singing and crying, sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes.
The brotherly righteousness in the romance of the rivers and lakes, the capable people in the novels, the final ending is inevitably clichΓ© and beautiful.
Cui Ying was poisoned by these vulgar stories, thinking that this was the case in the rivers and lakes, and she yearned for it when she was young.
When you go to the rivers and lakes in a certain year and month, you can meet a good brother who eats meat and drinks in a big bowl, and you can have a partner who is charming and captivating, and you can meet like-minded immortal masters and friends everywhere.
The rivers and lakes are big and the vision is very broad.
It's a pity that things backfired, no virtue and no action is bad, these people's style of action is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it is deserving to be spurned, no wonder Cui Ying, who was ruined and longed for by some of the rivers and lakes, acted ruthlessly.
Of course, Chen Jing has read the books that Cui Niu has read, and even more, but the purpose of reading the books is only a temporary choice in his spare time, unlike Cui Ying's childish reverie.
made such a fuss today, Chen Jing felt that it was not bad, it was better to destroy people's illusions than to kill people's hearts, Cui Niu's arrogant temperament should be accepted, otherwise the later she suffers, the bigger the heel will be.
"It's best not to get up again." Cui Ying spat out after scolding.
Chen Jing washed his hands with the help of the river, turned his head and said, "Feel better?" β
Cui Ying sighed and said, "What the hell, what's the matter?" I thought that a hero who was fighting hard finally turned out to be a bandit who was accustomed to dog skin plasters. β
Chen Jing smiled lightly and didn't reveal her scars, "Most of the books you read in the past were chivalrous and hot-blooded men, and the suspicion of deliberately currying favor with book buyers is too conspicuous to be taken seriously."
The complexity of people's hearts is far from being exhausted by a few miscellaneous books, and the insight of world affairs and the cultivation of human feelings are more often lived, not obtained by reading books. β
Cui Ying shook her hand in the water, shook her hand twice at will, and said uncomfortably: "At that moment, I began to plan in my heart, how to intersect with that guy's wine glass, call me brother, I really turned my face in the blink of an eye."
When I came out of the house, I didn't meet a few good people along the way, and now I look at it, yesterday I showed the way to the two of us, and the black shop that secretly put sweat medicine on the dark is not so bad. β
Chen Jing patted her shoulder, "Aren't good people, there's nothing to argue about, in the future, we just need to be more careful." β
Cui Ying, who has a sad face, comes and goes quickly, like a rainy day, she still has a slight male duck voice, and if no one is around to discuss loudly with Chen Jing in the middle of the night, how heroic her legs are, even if there are other people who come to find trouble, seeing her last bravery, no one will dare to commit it.
was implicated by her kick, and the boat that affected the fish pond, neither of them had the intention of condolence compensation.
From the beginning of the fight to the walk to the inn, a quarter of an hour is indispensable, no one from the government office built next to the avenue on the shore comes to inspect, and the people who sit and watch the excitement and do not think it is a big deal should be commonplace for this kind of thing, if it is really a good fight, dazzling, maybe it can also be used as a snack for the benefactor, and it is also excellent to sell more wine money, take 10,000 steps back, you can't disturb your own business, and you will fight and die with you.
From the fight to the end, there is a high probability that no one will dare to ask for compensation, and the two will not surrender their identities and give half-truths and half-truths in this kind of fireworks land.
Chen Jingle got his opinion, and everyone was in their place, and everyone was in peace.
Before leaving, even if the local government is nothing more than using lynching to find trouble, at most it will be fined, although it is said that people are killed, but in the final analysis, water bandits are water bandits, and it is difficult for the government to find a reason to raise the price.
The rivers and lakes where chivalry violates the ban with martial arts make the country and dynasty extremely headaches, and the government that is careful everywhere is also a hidden disease.
"Two brothers, please stay." A voice stopped the man and woman.
What's the matter, do you really dare to ask for money with no eyes? Or is it true that the "hero" who kicked the fly just now is true, and there will be no peace tonight?
Chen Jing and Cui Ying stopped to look, from a delicate painting boat to a leaky boat out of the three men, led by the men and sisters with cheerfulness, quickly ran in front of the men and women who could land on the shore in a few steps.
As the man got closer, Cui Ying's eyebrows rose higher and higher.
The man also saw that her face was not good, and stood three steps away with interest, suppressed the agitation in his heart, and said: "Just now, our three brothers were busy eating, drinking, and having fun, when something suddenly rushed in, and only after seeing it clearly did I know that it was an unlucky ghost, and that virtue must have been caused by a hero."
This is not the same as the two of us came out immediately, planning to get acquainted with the heroes, but it is really not a familiar face, and I beg the two heroes to give me a chance to appreciate their faces, so that I can wait for a banquet to entertain them. β
After listening to him, Cui Ying, who was browning gently, rolled her eyes a few times, and couldn't think of what the routine was this time, so she looked at Xiaojing with inquiring eyes.
Chen Jing shook his head lightly, he had to see the move, he couldn't be sure if he was in league with those people just now, he couldn't kill him regardless of good and evil, only his preferences.
The two people in the back saw the men and women looking at each other, and stepped forward and said: "The two of you don't have to think about it, the three of us brothers really just admired the hero's demeanor, and they did have the idea of getting acquainted, and they also understood that the hero's vision was high, I am afraid that I can't look down on the three of us, if you are offended, please Haihan." β
Another person arched his hand and said: "The two of them punished the thieves, they are very happy, the local government will not dare to say anything, our three brothers are not wealthy families, there are still some relationships, if someone is embarrassed the next day, you can send someone to inform the three brothers of the Qiu family, and they will definitely be able to retreat a little." β
Cui Ying nodded again and again when he heard the last person speak, "This brother said it very well, especially the first two sentences!" I have exhausted the happiness and enmity of the people in the rivers and lakes of my generation, and I can agree with what I have done so much, how can I Cui Niu have a cold face, wine comes to meat!? β
Chen Jing covered his face and regretted, persuaded her to restrain with great reason, and turned her head to forget everything.
The three Qiu brothers were overjoyed, there are many heroes, there are few heroes, and there are even fewer heroines who have the spirit of heroes.
One rushed back to the boat to let people clean up the broken utensils, one opened the way, and one stood outside the ship to greet the driver, and the courtesy was a mess, giving enough face to men and women, especially the woman.
Cui Ying sighed: "Good guy, just a child, it's the same as the emperor returning to the palace." β
asked Chen Jing in a low voice, "This guy isn't the kind of person who plays yin, right?" β
Chen Jing shook his head and whispered: "How can I have the ability of a master, I can see through the skin at a glance, and point to my heart, I just think that these three people are a little honest, that is, the kind of honesty of the villagers, who seem to be stupid but have a clever energy."
But it is unlikely that the people who come here to have fun are ordinary people, and they can speak decently, and they have the courage to meet the chivalrous men of the rivers and lakes, and the gentry are almost the same. You look at the clothes they are wearing. β
Cui Ying looked at it again when she heard this, nodded and said: "You're right, I just felt that I didn't deal with it in my eyes, but now I will understand it when I look at it again, it's a bit like that, what's that?" β
Chen Jing muttered, "Chafu doesn't know how to use it newly." β
The eldest brother headed by the three brothers, the standard cloth shoes on his feet, and the trousers are also coarse cloth, but the jacket is exquisite, but the color is too eye-catching, golden yellow, and he dares to wear this kind of dyeing, either he is bold, or the government, at least the local government has no taboo on wearing dyeing.
Look at the embroidered gold ingots on it, I don't know if the gold wire is used, this dress, in the eyes of the real nobles who pay attention to elegance and appearance, I can't bear to look at it.
When he arrived at the boat, he met another Qiu brother, who was wearing a scribe's robe, just an ordinary style, but when he saw the slit at the hem of the clothes, Cui Ying almost couldn't hold back his laughter, he was uncomfortable, and he had to laugh insolently in his heart.
This one has a trend of blue out of blue compared to the one just now, and his mother just put on a long shirt and came out, and he didn't wear a middle coat to put it on, and the black leg hair was really eye-catching.
How can you come to Fengyue to have fun, how can you even afford to wear it, look at this brother's bold behavior of entertaining, he is definitely not a stingy person, he should not be a fat person with a swollen face, anyway, the last Cui Ying is not going to face it squarely, what is the love, one is dazzling, one is poisonous, and the last one doesn't know if it will make people have the idea of buttoning their eyes.
Chen Jing, who also saw it in his eyes, smiled implicitly, and glanced at Cui Ying, who pursed his lips, held back a wicked smile, and raised his hand sideways, "You go first." β
knew that the little abacus in her heart was nothing more than to let him go in first to "nourish his eyes", and then she went in to share the joys and sorrows.
Stepping in, compared to the elegance of Huyin Building, the small boat with a weak background in the territory, the rouge breath is thick and tangy, which makes Chen Jing's breathing a little slower, and he opens the two windows for ventilation a few steps in, and he still can't help but look at the last Qiu brother curiously, fortunately, there is still a suspicion of getting rich, but compared to the first two, it is much better.
Cui Ying came in pretending, looking left and right, looking up and down, but not looking at the person in the middle, she couldn't help but be curious in her heart, and she couldn't help but smile in her mouth, "It's okay, it's okay." β
Looking back at the "Golden Cover Turtle" as the eldest brother, which was the nickname she gave temporarily, she asked without any guests: "Brother, where is the wine and meat?" I'm just a vulgar person, these two things are in line, and the others are all subsections. β
The eldest brother looked at the third brother, and the latter immediately responded: "I just asked the old bustard to throw the man and the destroyed boat out, for fear of provoking the two heroes to see a new fire, I have instructed them to bring new equipment immediately, and set up a cauldron for us later, and the five of us will have a hot pot, how about it?" β
"Hot pot? I've heard it, and I think I've eaten it, but I can't remember it exactly. Cui Ying thought back, not sure if it was the kind of big pot dish she ate that year.
Chen Jing knew what she said, shook his head and said: "It's very different, our seasoning is too monotonous, and the horse can't catch up with the real hot pot." I'm just curious, this kind of boat can also be paired with hot pot? β
"Originally, there was none, but the two heroes were coming, so there were, and I could still eat it so late, it was just a little more money, and it wouldn't be in the way." As soon as the man in the long shirt finished speaking, Cui Ying gave the nickname "Scud" in his heart.
For the scud, who is rigidly copied and vividly pressed with a nickname on his head, there is no divine ability to read and see what others are thinking.
came to the back of the boat, pulled out the trembling bustard, and blamed her for being embarrassed, "It's too late to see the hero's admiration, what to hide." Don't say much else, hurry up and get on the things, there are five of us here, you have moved a few tables, forget it, just move a big round table over, and we will be lively around eating hot pot. β
The old bustard, who was forcibly pulled in, clenched his palms, did not dare to turn his head to look at the few people inside, and couldn't bear his curiosity, and when he heard that he was moving the round table, he complained: "Childe, my small boat, the door is low and narrow, and you can't enter large objects, you can also ...... with your own eyes."
"Don't say those useless, not wide enough, just dismantle it, as an old bustard, as a person who has come over, this also needs me to remind? Moreover, the half-dead man just crashed in, and the hull of the ship had already opened a big hole, what kind of pity is there at this time, I don't know if it is not broken, I don't know, the old does not go to the new, I haven't heard of it? Just ask me to make up for the difference. β
The old bustard actually had a bright mirror in his heart, and he was relieved when he heard the last sentence, in Linyue Bay, the boat is quite valuable, and human life is also expensive, such as their ship, it is really the kind that can be opened without leaking the bottom of the boat, after all, the men who come to Linyue Bay are to see the girl, not to see how solid the craftsman shipbuilding is.
The big dragon boat is rich and powerful, the wood is exquisite, there is no shortage of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the small boat is poor and pays attention to these, and in the end can only pay attention to itself first.
This guy who wears a long shirt as open crotch pants, in front of two knights who have just fought to the death, is talking about foxes and fake tigers, but she is really scared.
After all, it is one thing to see the excitement from afar, and it is another thing to be close to the present, she made up her mind to give the girl who was waiting on the side more silver later, and tonight she will leave it alone, and go directly to the shore for the night, maybe from tomorrow, she will never see these foreign travelers again.
Said to dismantle it, the round table is actually tilted obliquely compared to the door frame, a small part of the difference can be moved in, but the three Qiu brothers in order to be able to show their pride in front of the hero, they just smashed the entire exquisite style of the door frame, and only had to smash it once, smash one side, otherwise the boat that makes a living can be dismantled into a fishing boat with transparency on both sides.
The round table is erected, the hot pot is put on the table, the soup base is poured in, there is no shortage of chili peppers at home, and it is the first time I have seen the chili peppers to this extent.
Smelling this spicy smell, Cui Ying sniffed her nose, "This smell is enough." β
Hearing the woman's praise, the three Qiu brothers showed joy, and the golden turtle said: "It's okay, it is rumored that even if the local hot pot soup base is used to the extreme, it is only perfunctory in front of the authentic hot pot in Yujinzhou."
In the early years, in the capital of Nanshui Kingdom, there was a hot pot known as the inheritance of craftsmanship in Yujinzhou, and our three brothers used to be greedy to try the mouth, and after tasting it, they made people chew the root of their tongues out of thin air.
Either the rumors are unreliable and rely on a loud voice to deceive outsiders, or our expectations are too high, what is authentic or not, in fact, that's what it is. β
Listening to the eldest brother's chatter, watching the soup base slowly boil, Scud casually poured the dishes on the table and chair next to him.
After Chen Jing and Cui Ying saw it, they followed suit, each took some close-up dishes, poured them into the soup base one by one, and waited for them to be cooked.
Several people had plates in front of them, but Cui Ying changed from a plate to a bowl, and the three Qiu brothers sincerely worshipped and called "true heroes".
A few people present filled their glasses with wine, Cui Ying subconsciously looked at Chen Jing, who said, "I'll just have a few drinks, you can drink more, but the point is over." β
Turning his head to look at the three brothers, "Master rules, forgive me." β
The three of them didn't even dare to say it, and they were a little happy in their hearts, and they really had a famous heir who had landed on their heels.
A few people drank it all.
Chen Jing, who thinks that he respects his teacher and abides by the rules, is not the first time to drink, the first time he drank was at the instigation of Meng Qi, and the occasional attempt in the future was also stopped, which was not only due to his original intention, but also worried about the perception of drinking and misunderstanding.
For Cui Ying, who is more rebellious, there are not a few who drink, after reading more books such as chivalry in the rivers and lakes, he regrets not being able to learn swords with Meng Qi, and has complained to Xiaojing many times before going to bed late at night.
When she heard her say that, Chen Jing thought that Cui Niu would play tricks, and begged Master Dong Chuanhai to let her learn swords, so that her dream would come true, but it was not clear whether she asked for it afterwards.
became a child like a wine sword fairy as soon as possible, so that the young Cui Niu at the time secretly drank the bad wine at home many times, the wine sword fairy, the wine row is at the front, those who need to practice can't come, and those who practice their mouths don't come when they open their mouths.
Later, the young girl slowly grew up, and the idea of becoming a wine sword fairy seemed to fade slowly.
Cui Ying poured down a sip of wine, swallowed it after a turn between her mouths, and said with a shaking eyebrow: "It's really bad." β
When the three brothers heard this, they mistakenly thought that this woman was still a wine taster, and the third brother who arranged the food said worriedly: "I'm sorry for the two heroes, I'll arrange someone to change it." β
The living people didn't understand Cui Ying's original meaning, Chen Jing couldn't know it best, he raised his hand to signal that there was no need to do this, it was very interesting to have wine and meat, and by the way, he blamed the woman for being greedy.
Cui Ying waved his hand magnificently, with a very strong sense of the exchange of host and guest, "I have made this old mistake, don't be surprised by the brothers." At that time, I heard that this brother went to the capital to eat hot pot, could it be that he was also a good man who traveled south and north? β
The golden cover turtle said with a little shame: "It's just to take a turn in these places in the south of our Nanyuzhou, which is far from being called a hero in the rivers and lakes." β
Chen Jing, who was paying attention to this, filled him with a glass and asked: "I don't know what the brothers call it, we can't just eat and drink, and finally end up with a scene where we don't know the master's family, it's too rude." β
The latter was flattered and held up the wine cup, and said with a little self-reproach: "This, this is too undeserved, and I have to bother the hero to ask, this should have been a meeting and self-registration, but I fell behind......"
The third brother, who has been silent, spoke for his brother, raised his fingers, spread out his palms, and pointed to the eldest brother and the second brother and himself in turn, "The three of our brothers, Qiu Chen, Qiu Yu, and Qiu Yuan, are all from Nanshui Country, and the family is not rich to talk about, there is a porcelain kiln, plus an inn, self-sufficient, and it is good luck in the past two years, the kiln business has become bigger, and then relying on these years to save money and save some surplus money, we can wander blindly in the south of Nanyuzhou, only mixed with a copper smell, these are naturally not comparable to the heroes of the rivers and lakes." β
Chen Jing shook his head and said: "As soon as the copper smell is said, it only depends on the man-made thing, I look at a few people who act upright and bold, arrogant and arrogant, and the last four words are specially said with the three of you." β
After hearing this, the three of them were about to give up their thanks, but Chen Jing stretched out his hand and pressed it down.
If this time goes well, along the way, I will finally meet a few βββordinary mortals.
Good people and bad people go to extremes at both ends, only mortals in the world stumble left and right on the road of survival, there will be small bad actions, and they can also do small good deeds.
As for the great deeds of the unknown people who have done great evil or great good sanctification, the swan song of the history books is the exception of the exception, and it is rare and short in the world.
After the three of them sat down, Chen Jingwen said: "Our master has many rules, my surname is Chen, and it is inconvenient to disclose my name. β
Turning his head to look at Cui Ying, he said with a headache: "This person has already reported his name on a whim just now, his surname is Cui, and his single name is a cow." β
Cui Niu slapped the table and said loudly: "Cow angry! β
The eldest brother Qiu Chen cocked his thumb and cheered, "Sure enough, the bull is angry." β
The woman stroked her sideburns vigorously and looked at the three of them questioningly, "Really?"
Qiu Yu cheered loudly, "It must be!" β
Cui Niu looked at Chen Jing and boasted to herself: "Look, what does it mean to be impressed by heroism, this is!"
In front of outsiders, it doesn't hurt for Chen Jing to give her a little face, at that time, the water bandits ruined the vision of the rivers and lakes that she had been thinking about for a long time, and she will make up for it at this time, and it is just right to enter and exit.
Qiu Hengxing may have been infected by the inner turmoil of his two brothers, and asked with a smile: "Are the two heroes a famous family?" Can you have your own or meet hot deeds to talk about? β
"Well...... this" Cui Ying may not be able to grasp the proportions well, but she still understands the severity, and turned her head to look at Xiaojing.
Chen Jingti whispered a few words to her, and the woman said blankly: "Can you speak?" β
The man was helpless, and whispered to her again, "It's okay to change the name of people, things, and things, it's not your family skills." β
Cui Niu was at first dazed, and then understood, straightened her clothes decently, coughed, and with the signature gesture, she slammed the table and got up, "The two of us were born in Tianxuanzong, haven't we heard of it." β
The three people around the table were startled and shook their heads honestly.
"I haven't heard of it! It was a hidden sect, few disciples entered and exited the mortal world, and the sect was located on the top of a towering cliff peak, so you couldn't go up if you heard about it. Do you know what it means to be towering into the sky? The clouds are all halfway up the mountainside, and they are real clouds floating in the sky, not fog. β
Qiu Chen, whose heart was surging so much that his face was a little red, couldn't help but ask, "Hero, ...... you Your sect can have an immortal master in charge. β
Qiu Yu also asked, "Yes, yes, yes, it's the kind of immortal master who can fly around in the sky." β
Cui Ying laughed twice, shrugged his shoulders and said, "What is an immortal master, what is an immortal?" Does an old man who has lived for hundreds of years count? When he was in the mortal world before, he started as a foot soldier and worked until he reached the general protector, according to him, as long as he is willing, the emperor's seat can sit for a while, you say that such a person, can you be called the so-called immortal you said. β
Qiu Heng nodded hurriedly, "Naturally worthy, I didn't expect your sect to be such a god, hero...... No, it's time to change the title, the little immortal master is really a blessing. β
Cui Ying poured another sip of wine, glanced at him and said, "Did I just call that person the master?" β
Qiu Heng hurriedly got up and gave his hand like a sin, "Speak straight and be quick, forgive sins, forgive sins, I don't know which ...... of your sect"
Cui Ying said lazily: "It's a cook in my sect." β
The three of them were dumbfounded when they heard this.
Chen Jing couldn't cry or laugh, I don't know how the old man Dong, who was thousands of miles away, would feel when he heard Cui Niu arranging his old man's house, and most of them would be evacuated again.
After a long time, Qiu Chen, who sat on the wooden chair, sighed: "This is the essence of the sect, the chefs are all immortal masters, I can't wait." β
Qiu Yu was also full of emotion, "Yes, the immortal master has surrendered his identity as a cook, and the legendary palm law real person, how noble the Dan Dao elder should be, not to mention that there is a sect leader above." β
Cui Ying frowned, it was not easy to brag without this person, he should change to another place to divert water, and coughed again, "There are many rules in the sect, so it's not good to say anything, but some must be said." β
Seeing that the eyes and ears of the three brothers turned to him in unison, Cui Ying was very useful.
"Slay demons! It is said that there is a city three hundred miles away from my sect, called the black camel, this city is occupied by demons, plundering women everywhere, the more gorgeous the posture, the easier it is to be plundered, one day, a pretty woman with the pseudonym Xiaowan was robbed by demons, and those demons never imagined that Xiaowan really had a lot to do with my Tianxuanzong......
Chen Jing really admires Cui Niu's nonsense braggart skills, and the story carrier in the Romance of the Rivers and Lakes can also be applied, maybe this is why she can always attract the admiration of some women, in exchange for him, no matter what you say or do, it is clumsy.
was amazed by the kung fu, and then led to reverie by the story of the true and false, the three Qiu brothers were on the thief ship.
There have always been rumors in the rivers and lakes that thief ships are easy to get on and hard to get off.
