Chapter 19 Staring
The person who came did not hide, and directly showed his figure.
Although he covered his face with a black cloth, the curves highlighted by this strong outfit were already clear to him about his identity.
Walking out from behind the tree, he praised him,
"All are old, and they are still so tall, if they don't tighten up, I'm afraid they will have difficulty moving. ”
Aunt Kang, who had already taken off the black cloth, glared at Di Shoudian and scolded,
"It's not serious, the old lady just picked it up for you, I'm afraid you don't have that ability, hmph!"
Di Shoudian smiled, took his eyes away from those two places, looked at Aunt Kang who was still charming, and grinned,
"Do you have the ability, you will know if you have tried it, Kangkang, how did you come here after so many years?"
Aunt Kang's real name is Kang Zhuniang, and it is said that she was picked up by the master since she was a child, so the master gave her such a name. Every time he comes here to look for Di Shoudian, he is this virtuous, Aunt Kang is used to seeing it, and she knows that he is just taking advantage of it.
Laughing so hard that her chest shook and she was dizzy for a while, Aunt Kang said,
"You ask me how I came here? You don't want to think about it, what am I doing, and there will be no men? But you, you haven't even been to the kiln all these years, and there is no caring person around, don't tell me that you can still do something to the maids in the Zhuangzi." ”
Ji Shoudian had a straight face, and said with his hands behind his back,
"The old man is not here, you must know that consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan is the way to practice martial arts, Mrs. Kang doesn't have to worry about it, I don't know what advice Mrs. Kang has come this time?"
Aunt Kang glanced at the newly buried soil and did not make a sound.
When he saw his eyes, he said,
"In the future, the boss of your Songzhu Pavilion has changed, it is a young man, called Mao Fang. When I first went to buy Wanhualou, I handled it, and there was the chest of the girl who was staring at it with his eyes buried in the soil. ”
Aunt Kang snorted coldly and said,
"Your landlord is ruthless enough. ”
Di Shoudian ignored Aunt Kang's tone, and said calmly,
"It's just that there is more than enough to die, and how many soft-hearted people are there who have achieved great things? You dare to guarantee that your landlord does not have a few lives of his own in his hands. To be a subordinate, you must have the consciousness of being a subordinate, is it true that he Zhang Wuming's careful thinking adults can't see through it?"
Aunt Kang said,
"Now that you have found out that this person cannot be kept, I will have nothing to do, the tasks between you and me are different, you must be careful here, don't leak the news of my Songzhu Pavilion, I don't know why recently, then Lu Yiping is very nervous. ”
He said,
"The arrest of Lu Guanju failed, he Lu Yiping was right to be nervous, and there should be news from your side. ”
Aunt Kang snorted lightly and did not speak.
He said angrily,
"You are just collecting some information, and you don't have to fight and kill, what qualifications do you have to say about us, besides, how do you know the arrangement of our landlord. ”
Aunt Kang sneered,
"Yo, then let's see who will take this Pingnan City in the future. ”
As soon as she turned around after speaking, several ups and downs disappeared in the eyes of Ji Shoudian.
He scratched his palm a few times, and then spat at the new pile of dirt.
——————————
Yuan Xi estimated that it was now close to midsummer, the sky was very early, and as soon as the city gate was opened, he would go to the Songguo Mountain, and he would be able to come back in less than two hours, and the disciples would just finish their morning exercises, which would not affect his teaching.
Morning exercise is to do some basic movements to relax the muscles and bones, and several coaches take turns to supervise them, so Yuan Xi wants to go hunting, and there is still plenty of time.
Of course, this time is only for him, because he will not spend much time in the mountains.
Cheng Shifei has never been to hunt in the mountains, Brother Yuan said that he wanted to go, he was also eager to try, after the two chatted, he thought about buying a set of bows and arrows quickly, plus going to the horse market, renting a good horse.
Originally, he was going to rent two horses, but Yuan Xi said that he couldn't use them, and renting one horse was just for camel prey, and it was still in the way in the mountains.
There are horses in the martial arts hall, but there is only one, which is used to give the owner of the hall Cheng Yun a car, Cheng Shifei didn't think about having a horse of his own, and was reprimanded by his father.
Cheng Shifei learned to ride a horse in the camp of Pingnan City, and it was Sister Guan Guan who taught him. Fortunately, he had some martial arts foundation at that time, and he was saved from falling off the horse for the first time.
Of course, Sister Guan Guan, who knew the severity, did not make any mistakes, and asked the guards on the side to help take care of him.
Cheng Yunde reprimanded, horses are not for play, you don't need it now, and you don't need to be blushing.
In this Pingnan city, there are so many children of wealthy merchants, riding horses raised by their own families to transport goods, showing off their might, and later when they were riding horses on the street, they were scolded by Lu Guanju when they saw it, and they no longer dared to ride horses in the city, and they honestly went to the outskirts of the city to ride if they wanted to ride horses.
And going hunting in Songguo Mountain is also one of the preferences of these teenagers.
When I was a young man with no worries about food and clothing, the things that others envied were just ordinary, and I lacked some hard-won happiness, so what should I do?
Lu Guanju is actually not scolding, but he just said, ride well, come and compete with this girl, win, this girl will accompany you to practice boxing, lose, is it good to accompany this girl to practice boxing?
The one who spoke was the daughter of a city guard, and when she went home to sue her father, she would inevitably pretend to be a grandson at General Lu's place when she turned around, and she would have to be punished, and she would be locked up at home for a few days, and she would not be suffocated?
In the name of that female devil, who would dare to compare fists with her? Do you think your eyes are too big?
Those who dare to argue with her are just saying things about three obedience and four virtues in the academy every day.
These words can also reach Lu Guanju's ears, she smiled, when this girl doesn't know what the three from the four virtues are?
I didn't marry my father, didn't I do that?
As for morality, speech, tolerance, and work, which of the four items is worse than herself? This girl acts above board and has no defects in morality. He reads a lot, speaks appropriately, well, and is still very decent to his elders. Born beautiful, but a little powder, and there is no frivolity. By the way, some rude actions are not frivolous, they are what a warrior does. As for the work, I'll wait until someone marries this girl.
After Lu Guanju finished speaking, his girlfriend laughed and trembled, and when he turned his head, the words reached the ears of the younger brother in the family, and soon a group of teenagers talked about it in private.
The most they say is, who dares to marry you!
The Yunde Martial Arts Hall does not teach archery, so there are no bows and arrows.
And the Nanli Academy in Pingnan City teaches archery.
For the scholars who continued to study in the academy after Mengxue, they opened six art disciplines, and learned six subjects: etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics.
Therefore, the scholars of the academy are not all powerless people, but they are just a little worse than those who specialize in martial arts.
Anyway, even if you can't beat it, you can still write a few articles and scold two sentences.
In the period of the previous dynasties, there were people who scolded the other party's old ministers to death in front of the battle, and were sought after by later generations, and there were poems praising "shaking the tongue lightly, scolding the old traitorous ministers to death", especially the sentence "I have never seen such a brazen person" has become a scolding holy word in the hearts of a group of readers.
However, a group of martial arts disciples sneered, it was not you who died as a scholar? Husband, don't frown on the blood-spattered battlefield, do you dare?
The children of the school are not to be outdone, you go to splash one first, who wouldn't talk here?
The young man is hot-blooded, but most of them dare not throw their heads.
However, after being on the battlefield, whether he was a scholar or a martial arts practitioner, he looked down on the escapee the most.
When Cheng Shifei was hunting in Zhang Luo, Yuan Xi thought about how to surprise Cheng Shifei.
In order not to let him know, he asked Kong Lixiang and the three of them in the chair lounge where to buy ferocious dogs in Pingnan City.
Zhu Zhimang told Yuan Xi that there is a dog market in the west of the city, and there are several that specialize in training some large dogs, because many high-ranking families in the city like to keep a few fierce dogs at home and keep them in the care yard.
Yuan Xi took advantage of the time when Cheng Cheng went out and left the martial arts hall by himself.
went out and walked towards the west of the city, and after not going far, Yuan Xi found that someone was staring at him, he remained silent and continued to walk forward.
No one likes this feeling of being stared at, and neither does Yuan Xi.
He didn't know what the other party's intentions were, so he swaggered away, anyway, he could see him openly, and he would see it secretly, and if he was willing to see it, he would give them a good look.
Zhou Bochang arranged for three people to stare around the martial arts hall every day, and these three candidates are not fixed candidates, after all, if you see too many of the same face, it is easy to go wrong.
On weekdays, Yuan Xi doesn't go out, which is not very interesting to be staring at near the martial arts hall, and today I finally saw Yuan Xi go out, so I came to the spirit, and the three of them followed Yuan Xi separately.
Two of them were wandering around ten zhang behind Yuan Xi, while the other person hid in the dark, copying the path, either in front or behind, staring at Yuan Xi from a distance.
It was precisely the person in the shadows who made Yuan Xi feel the most uncomfortable.
Sneaky and sneaky, at first glance is not a good person.
Yuan Xi was amused in his heart, laughing at the person in the shadows who was hiding in Tibet, and he was discovered by himself when he came out of the martial arts hall, but he thought he was hiding well.
Yuan Xi thought for a while, he hadn't hunted birds for a few days, the streets were paved with bluestone slabs, small stones were not common, Yuan Xi's fingers were itchy, and he wanted to tease that person, so he turned around and entered a rice village.
The two followed, one followed into the rice village, the other wandered around outside the rice village, and the person who was secretly tracking was also staring in the dark not far away.
When Yuan Xi came out, there was a small cloth bag in his hand, which contained peanuts.
Reaching out and pinching out a few peanuts, Yuan Xi put one in his mouth and chewed it.
He didn't peel off the thin red peanut skin outside, and the thin layer of raw peanuts was more difficult to peel, and Yuan Xi also tried to save trouble, so he was too lazy to peel it.
The shopkeeper who sold the rice also told him that this thin layer of skin has the effect of nourishing qi and blood, and there is no need to peel the skin to eat.
If you eat it like this, it is still a little astringent, but fortunately, the peanut kernel has its own fragrance, and the entrance is a little sweet, which is very delicious.
When there was still a peanut in his hand, he flicked his fingers, and someone who had just probed in the distance made a "ah" sound and disappeared.
He didn't use much force, this strength, the top of the man's forehead was swollen with a big bag.
As for the one who just followed up, and the one outside, he didn't pay attention.
Chewing on peanuts, he continued to walk towards the dog market.
Li Ersheng squatted there grinning with a confused expression.
He didn't expect to be discovered, with those two people attracting attention, how could he still find out?
Originally, according to the plan, if Yuan Xi stopped somewhere, the two of them would leave, never follow, and leave it to him to check in the dark.
It's good that I've been discovered, and this mission is a failure, so I just hope those two can hold on a little longer.
Rubbing his head, his partner Wang Dazhu came over, gave him an inquiring look, and said,
"What's going on?"
Li Ersheng put down his hand, pointed to the bag on his head and said to Wang Dazhu,
"What else is going on? Let people find out, you see, I feel like a big bag myself. ”
Wang Dazhu looked puzzled, and while looking at Li Ersheng's head, he said,
"I didn't see him make a move, he went to the rice store to buy a small bag of peanuts, watched him buy it, I also bought a small bag, thinking about going back in the evening, our brother fried it, and drank a few sips. ”
After speaking, he took out a small bag of peanuts and checked it, and there were two and a half catties.
Li Ersheng was so painful that he didn't have a good airway,
As soon as I stretched out my head, I saw that the young man seemed to put something in his mouth, and then he smiled at me, my head hurt, and I was a little dizzy, so I quickly dodged and squatted here, and then you came over, why, Zhang Dashan continued to follow?"
Wang Dazhu nodded, and then said,
"I saw that something was wrong with you, so I came over to see it. Now it seems that the mountain will be in vain in the future. But what did he use to hit you? Is it a secret weapon? Then why do you only have a bag out of your head? The lord is right, tell us to be careful, this man is a master, and before I saw him make a move, your head was punched, how powerful is this? ”
Li Ersheng glared at him,
"You be quiet, don't gossip, let's just do what the adults order, now it seems that we have to talk to the adults when we go back, with our ability, staring at such a master, isn't this a blind man lighting the lamp?"
Reaching out and rubbing the bag on his head, he muttered,
"The young man is like a raw melon egg, how can he be so powerful? Is this the beginning of martial arts training in the womb? Let's go, let's go back first!"
Wang Dazhu also sighed twice, and the two went back to resume their lives, as for Zhang Dashan, they didn't expect him to follow any results.
When they arrived at the camp, the two found Zhou Bochang, and Zhou Bochang saw that the two had returned at this time, so he asked,
"Why did you come back? But what about the mountain?"
Wang Dazhu gave Li Ersheng who was covering his head a look, Li Ersheng put down his hand, revealing an obvious red and swollen bag, he saluted and said,
"My lord, today, the new chair of the martial arts hall finally went out, and the three of us brothers went our separate ways according to the plan, they followed openly, and I followed secretly. ”
At this time, Zhou Bochang interjected,
"Do you recognize someone?"
Li Ersheng hurriedly said,
"There will be no fake, the young hall master of this Yunde Martial Arts Pavilion is still known to our brothers, and no matter how old he is, and as you instructed, there is no one else who matches his appearance and bearing. ”
Then he pointed to the bag and said,
"If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have such a big bag on my head!"
As soon as Zhou Bochang hit Li Ersheng and saw him covering his head as soon as he entered the door, he beckoned and motioned for Li Ersheng to come over and show him.
Li Ersheng leaned over, hunched over and poked his head out of his neck, half-tilted to show his head to the adults, and Wang Dazhu on the side also stared at the eyeballs.
Zhou Bochang pressed it with his hand, and it hurt so much that Li Ersheng bared his teeth and didn't dare to move.
Wang Dazhu, who was watching from the side, also grinned, Zhou Bochang glanced at him, and then asked,
"You're still fighting? So why are you okay?"
Wang Dazhu shook his head, and then said,
"My lord, I didn't fight, this Li Ersheng was beaten up for some reason, I came up to check, the mountain was still following, we concluded that it must have been discovered, so we came back and hurriedly replied to the adult to see if I wanted to change the plan of action. ”
Zhou Bochang, who had already finished checking, waved his hand, motioned for Li Ersheng to wait on the side, and then asked the two to tell the story of the tracking in detail. After listening to Wang Dazhu, he pondered for a while and asked,
"Wang Dazhu, you mean he bought a small bag of peanuts?"
Wang Dazhu reached into his arms, took out a small cloth bag, handed it over, and said,
"My lord, that's it, in order to follow the store, my subordinates also pretended to be buyers and bought some of them. ”
Zhou Bochang took it, opened the cloth bag, pinched out one, and then flicked his fingers.
With a "snap", the peanuts hit the pillar, Zhou Bochang shook his head, and he didn't know what to do.
At this time, Wang Dazhu whispered,
"My lord, this is also to track and buy, adults to see if they can reward a few small dollars, otherwise the little one will go home and explain to the mother-in-law at home. ”
Li Ersheng on the side raised his eyelids and didn't squeak.
Zhou Bochang glanced at the two of them, reached out and took out a small piece of broken silver from his arms, threw it to Wang Dazhu, and then said,
"Take it, these are only a lot more, remember to get some bruise medicine for Li Ersheng first, you guys go down!"
Wang Da, who took the silver, shook his hand lightly, put the silver into his arms with a smile, squinted at Li Ersheng, and the two retired together.
Wang Dazhu, who bowed and retired, glanced at the peanut bag in Zhou Bochang's hand, and then slowly moved back.
Zhou Bochang knows what kind of virtue his own people have, and he generally won't lose his subordinates, otherwise he wouldn't have given a small piece of broken silver so readily just now.
Throwing the bag out casually, Wang Da caught it with both hands, grinned and hurriedly said,
"Thank you, sir!"
took two quick steps back and walked out of the house with Li Ersheng.
Out of the door, Li Ersheng slammed his elbow and said in a low voice,
"How dare you ask for your money?"
Wang Da laughed and whispered,
"Don't worry, I'll divide half of you later, forget about the mountain, I'll call my mother-in-law to fry this bag of peanuts when I go home, call it to the mountain, let's take two sips of the brothers, the matter of silver, don't talk to the mountain." ”
Li Ersheng pondered for a moment and said,
"Speaking of which, why hasn't Dashan come back yet? won't you be abolished by that young martial artist, right?"
Wang Dazhu thought for a moment and said,
"Can't we, why don't we go and find it?"
"Let's go!"
Li Ersheng couldn't care about the pain caused by the bag on his head, so he walked outside the camp with Wang Dazhu.
When they walked to the door of the tent, they happened to meet Zhang Dashan who came back, and the two of them greeted him.
Seeing the two, Zhang Dashan first spoke to Li Ersheng, who was covering his forehead,
"Second Brother Li, what's the matter with your forehead? At that time, I was afraid that people would lose it, and I didn't go over when I saw Dazhu go over to see you, how about it?"
Li Ersheng said,
"You're back, I just don't know what the young man used to make a bag on my forehead. That young man is a ruthless man, I'm afraid he is a master of the level of an adult. The two of us had just finished reporting to the adults, and when we saw that you hadn't come back yet, we were afraid that something would happen, so we were ready to go out to look for you. ”
Wang Dazhu on the side also spoke,
"Dashan, how are you? What did you find?"
Zhang Dashan said,
"Don't worry, I'll go to the adults first, and I'll tell you two later. ”
Zhou Bochang pondered Li Ersheng's injury, he took a closer look, it was a skin injury, which seemed to be badly swollen, and it disappeared after a few days.
He guessed that Yuan Xi should have left his hand, and this should be a warning.
Thinking of the stone that bounced out of nowhere, Zhou Bochang deduced that Yuan Xi's master was proficient in a secret weapon stunt. This matter is not trivial, and I still have to report it to the general.
Thinking about the situation of the matter, Zhang Dashan asked to see him outside the door.
Zhang Dashan followed Yuan Xi to the dog market, and the young martial artist let himself follow him like this, and he did not shy away from it.
When he arrived at the dog market, the young man walked towards him, Zhang Dashan thought to himself, he couldn't help it, this is a place with a lot of people, and the other party can't do anything to himself.
Unexpectedly, the young man spoke very politely, and called himself big brother as soon as he opened his mouth, asking if he knew who was selling dogs that were fierce enough.
Although Zhang Dashan does not raise dogs himself, there are still many big dogs in the army. Because the dog's nose is sensitive, it is stronger than people to track things, so it is also very practical to raise dogs in the army.
Zhang Dashan and the others were exactly the people sent out of the scout camp.
The trump card of their scout camp is really those dogs, who have helped them complete a lot of mountain search and tracking tasks, and some of the tasks of chasing bandits and bandits within Pingnan City, they have made a lot of contributions.
It's just that he doesn't understand, why the young martial artist asks him this, does he know his identity?
While he was still thinking about it, the young man continued to speak, telling him that he wanted to go hunting in the pine cone mountain in the near future, and wanted to buy a powerful big dog to help him explore the way.
Go to Songguo Mountain, and then hunt? This information is too important, Zhang Dashan took a deep breath, and told the young man, if you ask, I will ask the right question, you go to the third dog market to pick one, you should be able to pick your favorite breed. 、
His family mostly cultivates fierce dogs for some large families, and then he grinned again, and said that he wanted to see the pet dog for Mrs. Fuzhong, and he was not a store, so he said goodbye.
The young man politely thanked him and said goodbye to himself.
After listening to Zhang Dashan's account of the tracking, Zhou Bochang frowned, he didn't quite understand what the young man's intentions were, it was obvious that their tracking had been exposed, but why did Yuan Xi still tell Zhang Dashan this information?
Yuan Xi led a big dog he had chosen and walked back in the direction of the martial arts hall.
The man really didn't lie to himself, the dogs in this house were indeed fierce, but when he entered, the dogs who were obviously barking happily were silent, maybe the store was well-trained.
Holding this one in his hand and barking his teeth at himself, he became interested and asked the store.
The shopkeeper said that this is a raw dog, half a year old, he has not been trained, and he is more ferocious, and he will be fierce when he sees a living person.
After paying the money, Yuan Xi took out the momentum of bullying the evil tiger and the fierce bear and glared, and the black dog, who was still fierce at himself, meekly licked his heels.
Yuan Xi gave it a name, called Funny Fei.
