Chapter 245: Bamboo Forest Town
Five miles is not long, Yang Zhi let the horse go slowly, sometimes dismount to see the crops, and the two of them always maintain a distance of about one mile, it didn't take long to come to the market town; asked the locals, only to know that this town is called Zhulin Town. Today is the day of the market, and the people who rush to the market come from Sixiang early in the morning, but they still refuse to leave in the afternoon; they bring with them the chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, fruits, vegetables, rice, and other things they have grown, and if they can't exchange them for a little rouge silk cloth or scattered silver, they will not be able to make a difference when they go back.
There are also a lot of people from other places, the west is the Taihang Mountains, many people in the mountains come out to change things, all in Zhulin Town, selling those things from unknown sources are also in Zhulin Town, attracting a large number of foreign businessmen who come to receive and sell goods. Yang Zhi led the horse into the town, the central square and the street were already crowded with all kinds of people, and there was even a group of jugglers performing on the streets; Yang Zhi stood outside the crowd and looked at it twice, continued to walk forward, stopped at the door of an inn, and stayed at the hotel.
The civet cat and Li Wanhua followed in, after all, they had only arrived in the town at this time, and if they set off immediately, they would come and go in such a hurry, it would be easy for people to feel abnormal; the shopkeeper and the guys in the inn were not interested in pursuing this kind of problem, but it didn't mean that the people in the crowd in the town didn't pay attention. I'm afraid that the martial arts of these people are not even one-third of Li Wanhua's, but who knows if they are spies sent by others, since they hide their identities, they should be like ordinary people.
The civet cat and Li Wanhua said that they were brother and sister, and asked for a room, Li Wanhua was picky, and finally chose next door to Yang Zhi; when the civet came out, he saw Yang Zhi sitting alone in the empty hall drinking, with a plate of pig's head meat, a plate of braised fish and a plate of peanuts in front of him, the guy nodded and stood aside, holding about a tael of broken silver in his hand, and asked with a smile: "What else does the guest officer need?"
The wine and food bought next door were only five dollars of silver, and the guy naturally wanted to stammer, by the way, to express his professional ethics, not to take these few dollars of silver for nothing; Yang Zhi smiled slightly and said: "I'm here to sell horses, find a familiar person, if the price is good, I'll give you two taels of silver." ”
The man led Yang Zhi's horse to the backyard with his own hands, and he didn't doubt it at all, so he happily agreed, and ran out to make a fuss, and the shopkeeper shook his head on the counter, as if he was not satisfied with the man's behavior, and he had no insight at all, and this kind of business should be given to himself. The civet smiled and asked the shopkeeper, "Is there a big car shop in the town?"
The shopkeeper gave a smiling face and said, "Yes, yes, Gao Gongzi, go out and go east, just at the end of our street, you can see a big courtyard, in which there are all kinds of cars, you can buy or rent." ”
The civet thanked him, and when he walked out of the inn gate, he saw that the man had already come over with a person, carrying a wine jug with a sad face, and his clothes did not like to take care of people;
The civet cat could clearly feel a kind of internal force to visit, gathered his mind, pretended not to notice and said: "I went to the big car shop to buy a mule cart, came out to play for a few days, and I want to go back." ”
The guy nodded again and again: "Understood, understood." ”
The two of them walked over, and the civet continued to walk forward, and couldn't help but shake his head, not knowing how Yang Zhi would react when he saw this person.
Yang Zhi didn't react at least on the surface when he saw this person, but Yang Zhi recognized it at a glance that the person in front of him was Zheng Chuang, a drunken scholar, a set of iron fan kung fu alone in the rivers and lakes, and he was the right-hand man of the wild dragon, and Yang Zhi had fought in Changping Village in front of Bai Yu City. Zheng Chuang was obviously stunned, immediately put the wine jug on the table, stepped forward and said, "I didn't expect to be able to meet Senior Lan here, it's really an honor for the junior, Ma doesn't need to look at it, how about two hundred taels of silver?"
Yang Zhi's mind immediately began to calculate, which people knew that Lan Bin was Yang Zhi, in the Jin Kingdom, only Hei Hanjia and others knew this secret, even if Wu Qimai and a good monk guessed, they would never say it to the outside world, but they would try their best not to let the news leak, if it was known that the good monk brought Yang Zhi into Liaoyang, and arranged it to the Iron Mountain Inn, Zong Han and the others could say all the bad things in front of Wanyan Aguta, and if it was not good, it would stop the Double Dragon Club.
The Liao side should know that the few people in Yanyun Hall know that the Taixuan Sutra is a loophole, but Ying Yunfei was ready to keep it a secret from the beginning, and when Yang Zhi returned to Youzhou, he learned that in order to let Yang Zhi go to the Daimyo Mansion smoothly, Xilong unified the caliber with Ying Yunfei and Yuan Di, and said to the outside that the Taixuan Sutra was a copy that Yang Zhi grabbed in Liaoyang. But how big the scope of a few people is, Yang Zhi is not sure, Yang Zhi can only make a bet, nodded slowly and said, "Deal." ”
Zheng Chuang followed his man to the back to look at the horse, returned to the hall and sat down opposite Yang Zhi, handed over two hundred taels of silver, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Senior, this horse seems to be a horse from the Liao Kingdom?"
Yang Zhi accepted the silver and pretended to be confused and said: "I rode it back, it's not that the entanglement is not enough, so I sold the horse for two dollars." ”
The senior laughed. Zheng Chuang looked around and whispered: "I understand, the seniors offended the good master and the Jin Kingdom in Liaoyang, and the Shuanglong will offer a reward of 5,000 taels of silver on the rivers and lakes, and ask for the seniors' heads." The seniors must be preparing to be incognito in this area, but the juniors have a good place to go. ”
Yang Zhi smiled, picked up the wine bowl and asked, "Is it that the crazy dragon Zhuoli and Tong Guan have turned their faces?"
Zheng Chuang's face changed, and he asked in surprise, "How do seniors know?"
Zheng Chuang's mind can't be said to be unagile, through Yang Zhi's words, he guessed that Yang Zhi knew himself and knew that he was a person who was Zhuo Li, but he knew that Zhuo Li and Tong Guan had turned their faces, that was the secret of the secret. Yang Zhi drank half a bowl of wine, put down the wine bowl and said: "You are nicknamed Drunken Scholar, but what are you wearing now, a coarse cloth short coat, a horse's business, and you have to work in person, it can only mean that you are now in seclusion." You and Shi Dangdang are Zhuo Li's right and left hands, if you betray him, you will have to flee far away from Taihang Mountain; since it is not your personal reason, if Zhuo Li does not have an accident, how can you fall to this point, only Tong Guan can make Zhuo Li suffer, the rabbit dies and the dog cooks, and the bird hides the bow. ”
Zheng Chuang picked up the wine jug in a daze, drank all the wine in the jug in one gulp and said: "The predecessors seem to know everything, so I won't say more, it was I who persuaded Zhuo Li to cooperate with Tong Guan back then, and wanted to wash away the brothers and seek glory and wealth." This time, Tong Guan and the Zhejia family started at the same time, and 2,000 elite soldiers raided our old camp, almost annihilating our entire army. ”
