Chapter 17: The Red Mandarin Duck

Gao Xian changed into a dark Taoist robe that looked much more decent, and the wooden hairpin on his head was also replaced with a jade one, but the Dao marks in the center of his eyebrows were hidden, except for looking good, he looked like an ordinary Taoist priest.

After all, other places can be said to be similar, and it is not uncommon for Taoist priests to wander the rivers and lakes, and there are even more Taoist priests who treat diseases and fortune telling, but the mark in the center of the eyebrows is too obvious, in Gongzhou, the rumors of the sword immortal are too widespread, and you can know who he is at a glance.

"You stupid donkey is too good to eat, this great immortal is poor for you. The Empty Dust Immortal shook the money bag that had shrunk to the extreme.

"Look at the Green Dragon Protector, he has never worried this great immortal. After looking at it, it seemed that the donkey had gained weight again.

The donkey looked at the brand-new cloud-patterned Taoist robe of the Empty Dust Great Immortal, then looked at the exquisite beautiful jade hairpin and jade pendant, and finally looked down at the drunken immortal brew hanging on his body and worth twenty taels of silver.

Didn't dare to mention it.

The donkey general defended: "Great immortal! It is a little donkey who carries the luggage with you every day, and it is also a little donkey who works hard and complains. ”

"Then the green dragon still wants the great immortal to hold it, can this be the same?"

The donkey general is called Qu Liantian.

"How is it possible to want a donkey to run, and if you want a donkey not to eat grass?"

"Great Immortal, you have to keep your eyes open and see who is the most loyal to you. ”

Kong Chenzi looked down at the cunning donkey, and the Spring and Autumn brushwork that ignored the key points was learned quite quickly: "Is that the grass you eat? You have eaten all the good dishes on the table, and you still look at this wine? Yesterday I remember that the pot was only half drunk, and what about the remaining half?"

The donkey general suddenly looked at him left and right, looking unreasonable and unstrong.

"It may have been sprinkled on the ground. ”

At this time, at the corner of the big river in the distance, I heard the sound of turbulent water, like a galloping horse.

"Look, it's the river! Daxian, we see the river. ”

All the way lazy donkey grinding, grinding, living in the best room, eating the most expensive dishes, drinking the most beautiful wine, along the Lingshui River town up, finally saw the main vein of the river, quite shocked.

The river is so wide that there is no border.

One man and one donkey were excited, and went further.

I saw thousands of miles of waves, thousands of sails on the river, and rolling white waves at the bottom of the boat, which showed the development of this water vein trade route.

After the beginning of spring, this waterway that held back for a winter, can't wait to start running at full strength, for businessmen, this river is not running boats, but gold and silver mountains.

The city in the distance is only built on three sides, it is the county seat of Wendong County, one is facing the river, Gao Xian did not have the intention of going in and staying, and went straight to the wharf.

Only in Mundong County, there are boats to Gangjeong-gun.

Jiangting County is the state capital of Jiangzhou, and it is the confluence of the Lingjiang River and the Jingshi Canal.

However, Jiangting is most famous for being a place of scribes and fireworks, and if the merchants and travelers of other countries come to the Great Zhou, they can not go to Beijing, but they must go to Jiangting to feel the fireworks of the Great Zhou.

Gao Xian found a tooth man in the tooth shop by the dock to help him find a boat to Jiangting.

"There is no boat to go to Jiangting in the past two days, so I have to wait a few days. "The tooth men were dressed more decently, in stark contrast to the coolies on the docks.

"But if the guest officer is in a hurry, there is a boat chartered by Xishan Academy over there that is parked here, and it is also going to Jiangzhou, I can help to make peace, as for whether it will be successful or not, I don't know. ”

Gao Xian had just responded, and at this time, another person hurriedly broke into the tooth shop, running out of breath.

"Is there a boat to Jiangting-gun? I want today, right away. ”

A woman dressed in gray, looking like a servant or servant, with a small hat on her head that didn't fit well and looked ridiculous, and she carried a large wooden box on her back, which was a little heavy, and weighed it down.

He still has a sword in his hand, but it also looks like a piece of broken metal.

It feels weird, like a charlatan, like a vendor, but it doesn't feel like anything.

Seeing the tools coming out of the box, Gao Xian suddenly realized: "This is a charlatan juggler." ”

The tooth man also had a smile on his face, it seemed that this trip could make money for two people.

What he had just said to Gao Xian was told to the woman, and then he went out to make arrangements.

The woman with the wooden box on her back finally sat down to take a breath, and then saw a Taoist priest sitting on the side, and more importantly, a donkey.

The woman suddenly stood up in fright, but after looking carefully, she found that Gao Xian's eyebrows were blank, and she suddenly let out a long breath.

"Jianghu people?" Although he was not afraid, his vigilance did not let go.

"You Fang Taoist priest, see a doctor for others, tell fortunes, earn some money and go back to shape the golden body for the Taoist, and repair the Taoist temple. Gao Xian replied honestly, with a harmless face.

"That doesn't mean martial arts, isn't it a person in the rivers and lakes?" The woman suddenly proudly straightened up her chest, which was not a good stock, as if telling Gao Xian that she was a person in the rivers and lakes, and her martial arts were extraordinary.

"I have never practiced martial arts, and this is the first time I have gone down the mountain. Gao Xian replied honestly, he was indeed a fledgling, and he had never practiced martial arts before, or he didn't need to practice it.

"Are you going to Jiangting too?" let down her vigilance, and the woman became familiar.

"I heard that Jiang Ting was rich, and I wanted to see it. Gao Xian said.

The woman seemed to have a lot of experience: "That's right, there are a lot of rich people in Jiangting, and your Taoist priest is still very good-looking, after the past, as long as you can speak well, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money." ”

The girl sat for a while and couldn't help it, it should be a chatter, or a late stage of ADHD.

She held the broken copper and iron sword, looked at Gao Xian's dress, and shook her head.

"Little Taoist, you are still too immature when you go down the mountain for the first time!"

"Please also ask the donor to give me some tips. "Gao Xian is full of teaching.

The girl had a few good teachers, and said directly in the tone of a person who came over: "Do you know what is the most important thing in the rivers and lakes?"

Before Gao Xian could speak, the girl slapped her face: "It's hidden." ”

The girl's eyes were long.

"As long as you don't show your hole cards, others will not dare to act rashly and reach the realm of surrendering without a fight. ”

"Whoever reveals his hole cards first loses. ”

After speaking, he looked at Gao Xian with disgust.

"Look at you, you are so well dressed, the hairpin is still jade, this body is worth a lot of silver, right?"

"Those robbers on the road, demons, 道️ will be eyeing you soon. ”

The woman didn't know that Gao Xian couldn't wait to meet a robber on the road, so she deliberately dressed up as this fat sheep.

But at this time, he couldn't say this, Gao Xian could only make a sudden and clear nod.

"Oh!"

"Live to be old!"

Gao Xian's interest in speaking is not high, but the girl's enthusiasm for being a good teacher has been mobilized.

The girl pointed to her dress, which meant that she was dressed up painstakingly and showing off her experience.

"You have to learn from me, wealth does not leak in vain, and the sword does not come out of the sheath, so that you can live a long time. ”

"Thank you brother Tai for reminding me, I'll change it later. ”

The girl was full of joy and saved a novice in the rivers and lakes, but she didn't see the donkey behind her looking at her speechlessly.

The donkey general thought to himself: "Who belongs to this stupid girl? What should I do if I encounter a robber and a person in the demon path?"

"The robber and the people in the demon path still have his life when they encounter him?"

At this time, the tooth man ran back.

"The people from Xishan Academy who chartered the boat want to meet the two of you, after all, the people on the boat are all students from the academy, and it is normal for them to have some concerns. ”

followed the tooth man to the dock, and when he got on the boat, he saw many students wearing long shirts and hats coming over, looking at Gao Xian and the two.

They went to Jiangzhou to meet with people from other academies, which was also a major event every year, and it had nothing to do with the academy, but only a private exchange between students.

I have to say that being good-looking or having some advantages made these Xishan Academy students feel relieved.

It's a natural disguise, and most people seem to think that if you look good, you can't be a bad person.

"In Xia Tang Yao, the people in the rivers and lakes are called red ducks, and I have seen you. The girl walked in front and showed off her name, as if she could shock the Quartet and make the other party treat her politely as long as she put forward her name.
