Chapter 61: Wang Xiaowu's Chance
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival is different from previous years.
In previous years, Luoshen Peak would make some moon cakes for all the soldiers and palace people to eat, and as for the high-level people, it was the same, just eat some moon cakes. But just when it was the eighth day of the eighth month of August, the Heavenly General Hall announced that all the sergeants could take turns to rest for a day, they could go down the mountain, they could be in the barracks, they could do everything they wanted, as long as they didn't break the law and discipline, no one would care what they did that day.
As long as they can get it back that day.
Wang Xiaowu didn't expect that he could really get his wish, although he was not accepted as an apprentice by a prefecture-level master, but he actually became a member of the Heavenly General Palace, and he was such a powerful underground branch!
When he first entered the underground branch, he was still ignorant, but on the first day, he was like dead, his muscles and muscles were extremely painful, and it was obviously a simple action of his hands on the ground but he was so tired that he almost lost consciousness, but fortunately, there was a medicinal soup prepared for them by the doctor of the Heavenly Medicine Palace, and after drinking it, he had recovered a lot of strength the next day.
In this way, from one action every day, to one more action, after ten days, he suddenly felt like he had been reborn, compared with his previous worlds of difference, he believed that if the two dead fat men were in front of him now, how could he beat those two people half to death, so that they were worthy of the title of dead fat man.
Today it is their turn for the team to rest before the holiday, so they came out to see the prosperous characteristics of Zhongzhou, don't look at him has been in Zhongzhou for a while, but he has been begging on the street, often hungry and can't walk, and where does he have the mind to be able to wander around, yes, and he is really dazzled.
Different from the prosperity of Qingzhou's cultural heritage, Zhongzhou is more like a patchwork of a seemingly chaotic but secretly compliant map. For example, the buildings in Jungju include the brick and wood high-rise buildings of Cheongju and the bamboo houses of Jeju, and of course there are no igloos in Bingju, but there are also scattered felt houses, and then there are extremely simple towers made of stone.
It can be said to be all-encompassing, and the categories are numerous and complex.
The building is like this, and the goods sold on the street are even more dazzling, too numerous to mention, Wang Xiaowu who saw it was itchy and unbearable, but unfortunately he had just entered the local branch and did not receive the silver taels, so he had to look at it a few times, and then hurriedly missed it, for fear that he would be greedy, but he was shy and embarrassed himself.
It may be that it is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the number of people on the street is nearly doubled, and most of them look extraordinary, with chaotic accents, everyone in the south and the north. Wang Xiaowu saw a lot of guys who saw him through with a look, if he wasn't now a member of the Chen team of the Heavenly General's Palace, he had confidence in his heart, and he was afraid that he would be scared to the point of urine.
At this time, he remembered that it seemed that because the young master was about to succeed to the throne, all the leading figures in the five states had gathered, and they only waited for the Heavenly General Hall of the Divine Peak to go to congratulate them on the 15th day of August.
And he was honored to have such a grand event, not only him, but almost all the sergeants of the local branch, after all, they were desperately existing for it in the future!
"Amitabha, does this benefactor know where to ascend to the Falling Divine Peak?"
A young monk led a black horse to stand in front of Wang Xiaowu and asked, dressed in a moon-white monk's robe, his eyes were warm and not tired, his skin was white, his body was slender, and he had an elegant atmosphere, not like a monk, but like a scholar, but the ring scar on the top of his head when he bowed slightly.
Hearing this, Wang Xiaowu subconsciously said: "Go further and turn right at the intersection to the particularly wide street, and then continue to walk forward to the mountain gate..."
The young monk folded his hands together again and saluted, and said, "Thank you to the donor, the donor is immeasurably blessed!"
After that, he led the black horse around Wang Xiaowu and walked behind him.
Wang Xiaowu, who came back to his senses, suddenly remembered that ordinary people would not be able to pass through the mountain gate without the approval of the state lord, and turned around to remind the monk: "Wait a minute..."
However, in the vast sea of people, the figure of the young monk leading the horse was like a fish in the water, swinging left and right, and he had easily walked out of a few zhang, and then Wang Xiaowu's vision was blocked by the crowd, and he could no longer see the trace of the monk.
Wang Xiaowu sighed, only hoping that the monk would not break through and would be able to retreat despite the difficulties.
I bought two candy men from the street, one in my hand, and one in my mouth. He borrowed half a tael of silver from the other minister, and if he saved some money, it would be enough for him to spend the day, after all, he had come to the street to learn something, not to buy something.
I just took two steps and found that someone was in front of him, but this time the figure was a little girl, dressed in soap white clothes, her little face was extremely cute, and a pair of big eyes stared at him, or rather, staring at the sugar man in his hand.
"Uh, little girl, are you okay?" Wang Xiaowu asked while quietly hiding the sugar man in his other hand behind him, not because he did it too much, but for this kind of look, he saw a lot when he was at the foot of Zixia Mountain, and those hairy children wanted him to buy candy for them to eat, and he would not be soft-hearted again.
"Don't worry, let's go. ”
Fortunately, a cold voice saved Wang Xiaowu, Wang Xiaowu looked at it and saw a woman wearing a black gauze hat and a black brocade shirt walking over, patted the little girl in white on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I have found the Fulin Building, I will take you over now!"
"Okay, Sister Qing!"
However, although Xiao Wuwu answered, he still looked at the sugar man behind Wang Xiaowu who was half exposed.
Seeing this, the woman in black who was called Sister Qing by Xiao Wuwu glanced at Wang Xiaowu through the veil.
"Oh, okay, I haven't eaten this yet, I'll give it to you!" Wang Xiaowu gritted his teeth and stretched out the hand behind his back and handed it to Xiao Wuwu.
Xiao Wuwu just wanted to catch it, but he looked up at the woman in black, and when he saw that she nodded, he reached out to catch it, and said sweetly: "Thank you, uncle!"
The corners of Wang Xiaowu's mouth twitched, he was only in his twenties, he had grown a little old, how could he be called uncle by a little girl?
"Silver ingots!" Although it was only half a ingot, there were two or three taels, and I don't know how many sugar people he could buy.
"This is..."I asked subconsciously, but I found that there were two women, one big and one small, in front of me, and when I turned around, I saw that the two people, one black and one white, had disappeared into the crowd.
Wang Xiaowu was puzzled, but he was also a little happy, after all, he actually got half a silver ingot by chance, so he could have a big surplus after returning one or two to the first team leader, which was really shit luck.
Just as he was happy to hear the sound of firecrackers on the street next door, and there was a tide of people's voices, Wang Xiaowu became curious, took the silver two into his arms, bit off the candy man, and then turned a corner and ran towards the lively place.
When he arrived, it turned out to be a very grand restaurant, the door was lit up, and even the dragon and lion dance was invited to jump and jump at the door of the restaurant, attracting many audiences, so that they stayed at the door to watch happily.
And at the door of the restaurant, there is a person who is very busy up and down, looking at his dress, it is obvious that he should be the little second of the restaurant, how to look at how to see how to reveal the cleverness, but the eyes are a little small, but I think he should be very good at observing words and feelings, and from time to time he asks the audience at the door to stop to watch the excitement if they want to enter the restaurant to eat.
Wang Xiaowu opened his mouth, and it was indeed almost noon, so he touched the silver two in his arms, and secretly wondered if he was also extravagant, and went to this restaurant to ask for a dish.
Just wanted to walk towards the restaurant, but accidentally caught a glimpse of the restaurant's plaque, and felt quite familiar in his heart: "Fulin Building?" Strange, this restaurant has obviously just opened, where did he hear the name? Just as he was thinking about it, his mind suddenly flashed over the two women who were one big and one small, and he remembered that the woman in black seemed to mention that they were going to this Fulin Building, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak.
It's not that he has done anything that doesn't live with others, but that he has just received the benefits of others, and then he spends money in front of others, and his skin is still a little thick.
So he wanted to turn around and leave, but he heard a woman in the restaurant shouting: "Lin Erdan, you big duck Dandan, come in and greet the guests, but the old lady is busy..."
Hearing the sound, Wang Xiaowu hurriedly walked a few steps, and when he heard the voice, he knew that the self-proclaimed old lady must be a dominatrix, maybe he had broad shoulders and a thick waist, eyes as big as a bucket, a head as big as a dustpan, black hair standing upside down all over his body, his canine teeth were exposed, and he could spew fire and poisonous water when he opened his mouth, so he was worthy of the name of dominatrix.
After running away for a while, he asked for a bowl of noodles at a noodle stall on another street and ate it with a sigh. To be honest, compared to the delicious food in the restaurant, he still thinks that this bowl of noodles is more satisfying and hunger-resistant.
And there are two or three slices of thin meat in this bowl, which tastes particularly fragrant on the noodles, and then "goo dong, goo dong" drink two mouthfuls of noodle soup, ho, this taste is the delicacies of the mountains and seas are not changed!
"Don't tease the little old man, look at the three dignified and extraordinary bearings, how can they not even give money for three bowls of noodles?"
Wang Xiaowu took a look, and saw three people dressed in green, white and apricot yellow with their backs to him and talking with the owner of the noodle stall: "The three of us are flying fast, and I didn't think about the money bags, but I don't want to give money, you are accommodating, we will bet these three swords here, and we will come here tomorrow at the latest to exchange them for silver!"
The three of them stretched out two wooden swords and one iron sword, and wanted to hand them to the stall owner.
Unexpectedly, the old man thought that the three of them were threatening him, and he was suddenly startled and said: "The three heroes and grandfathers spare their lives, these three bowls of noodles are considered to be the three of them for the little old man to eat, but he doesn't dare to mention the money, he doesn't dare..."
Wang Xiaowu didn't know the ins and outs, but he only thought that he could get three bowls of noodles, and he had just made a windfall, and he was full of confidence, and he was arrogant, and shouted: "The stall owner will count the noodles of these three people in my account, and settle them together later!"
The stall owner, the old man, was naturally as good as a stream, and when he heard the words, he no longer entangled the three of them.
And the three turned around and looked Wang Xiaowu up and down, among which the old man in an apricot yellow robe said: "Look at his face, good luck is the head!"
The middle-aged man in the cyan robe said: "The qualifications are acceptable, but it is rare that the heart is as calm as a mirror, but unfortunately there are traces of being trained, and I have no master-apprentice relationship." Master Yu, what do you think?"
The man in white said: "That's true, it's a pity, if you can practice swords quietly for twenty years, you can't enter the realm of half a step." ”
The three of them finally saluted Wang Xiaowu and said: "Little brother this help, we will remember it, if we are lucky enough to meet again, we will do our best to repay each other!"
Wang Xiaowu replied at a loss, and before he could speak, he saw three sword lights flashing, and the three of them were gone.
paid the face money in a daze, and Wang Xiaowu didn't have the heart to go any further, so he turned around and went back to the mountain gate.
This day passed inexplicably.
But he didn't know how many opportunities he encountered on this day, if he was known to be afraid that he would envy him to death, they would also laugh at him for not knowing gold and jade, and wasting a great opportunity in vain.
But is it really a waste? Maybe there is a better one, how can things be as good as they should be?
