Chapter Twenty-Eight: Yunmeng Immortal Grass
After eating, Xiaokang brought two horses, and the others rode together, ready to go to the foot of Yunmeng Mountain outside the city to play.
Xiaokang and Yue'er naturally rode a horse, Su Xin looked at Xiaohuan, who had not been on the horse for a long time, and urged: "Xiaohuan, you go up!"
Xiaohuan blushed, stomped his feet and said, "I... The horse is too tall for me to go up. ”
Su Xin was stunned, he thought to himself, although there is a difference between men and women, there should be no problem with holding people on the horse. But after thinking about it, he walked to the horse, took a stride, folded his hands on his legs, and said with a smile: "You can use my legs and hands as steps, and you can get on the horse by holding on to your shoulders carefully." ”
Xiaohuan shook his head and refused: "How can this work, Su Xin, this is a little bad!"
Su Xin smiled: "Hurry up, otherwise your young lady will be in a hurry." ”
Xiaohuan took a look ahead, and sure enough, she found that Miss Yue'er was looking at her dissatisfied, and seemed to be a little impatient to wait, so she had to hold Su Xin's shoulders and get on the horse carefully.
Su Xin turned over and got on his horse, tugged on the reins, and caught up with the two of them.
The town is not far from the foot of Yunmeng Mountain to the worthwhile place, and it takes about half an hour to ride a horse.
Galloping all the way, Su Xin looked at the nervous Xiaohuan and teased: "What, haven't you ridden a horse before?"
Xiaohuan shook his head and said, "No, Miss Yue'er rarely goes outside, and we maids generally don't leave the master's house, and we have never had the opportunity to ride a horse?"
Su Xin laughed and slowed down his horse's speed, so as not to really frighten the little girl.
The little maid glanced at Su Xin gratefully, but she grabbed the oil-paper umbrella in her hand and didn't dare to say any more.
At the foot of Yunmeng Mountain, Xiaokang and Yue'er rested in a pavilion, while Su Xin walked slowly along a small stream with Xiaohuan.
Xiaohuan was still relatively rusty at first, and it took a long time before he bravely asked, "Su Xin, you, why did you join the Dragon and Tiger Gang?"
Su Xin glanced at her in surprise, he didn't believe that this little maid of the Dragon and Tiger Gang didn't know the true situation of the Dragon and Tiger Gang, and asked instead of answering: "What about you, why did you come to them to be a maid?"
Xiaohuan's expression was gloomy at first, fiddling with the green silk hanging from his ears a few times, and said with a smile: "My family is in a bad situation, my mother said that I can subsidize the family by working in the town, but there is not much I can do, fortunately, Miss Yue'er likes me, so I can make a personal maid, so that I can send back a lot of copper coins to my family every month,"
Su Xin nodded, and then asked: "Are you familiar with the Dragon and Tiger Gang, do you know Xiaokang and Miss Yue'er, I am new to this place, and I am not familiar with this place, I hope you can teach me more." ”
Xiaohuan smiled and said, "Yes!" It seems that she is very happy and satisfied to be able to help others.
According to Xiaohuan, the Dragon and Tiger Gang is the largest force in Yunmeng Town, and it is quite influential even in the entire Kaiyang County. The eldest Zhang Long, is a famous swordsman, one hand five tigers cut the door knife method to make the tiger and the tiger angry, the second Zhang Hu and the third Zhang Biao are siblings, one of the two uses a stick, one is good at boxing, and they are all famous martial artists in Kaiyang County.
Xiaohuan whispered mysteriously: "The sisters in the house said that Master Zhang Biao seemed to be a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple before, and in this Kaiyang County area, everyone gave him a few thin noodles." ”
Su Xin nodded seriously after hearing this, the three leaders of the Dragon and Tiger Gang are not worth mentioning in his eyes, but they are the earth emperor in the eyes of the people of Yunmeng Town, if he behaves too contemptuously, he may arouse suspicion.
Xiaohuan stretched out his little hand to pick up a pebble that was very smooth by the current by the stream, and said, "As for Young Master Xiaokang and Miss Yue'er, they are a pair of hard-working people, and many of us in Yunmeng Town know about it. ”
Ten years ago, there was a shortage of soldiers, and a team of people and horses took refuge in Yunmeng Town, but after those left, they were left with two poor children, Xiaokang and Yue'er.
Xiaokang and Yue'er originally depended on each other, everyone saw that they were pitiful, and the people on the street occasionally gave some charity, plus Xiaokang was smart and clever, and often helped everyone, so he could barely survive.
But they were taken by the people in the Dragon and Tiger Gang, and they heard that it was Miss Yue'er who accidentally collided with Zhang Long, and then they were taken back to the mansion.
After Xiaokang looked for it, he was also brought into the house, and when he came out again, he became a member of the Dragon and Tiger Gang.
Su Xin sighed lightly and asked, "Do you know what kind of business this Dragon and Tiger Gang does?" I see that Yunmeng Town is bustling and lively, and it seems that they are not greatly affected. ”
Xiaohuan first shook his head and said, "I don't know, where do we get in touch with the affairs of the gang as maids." After a pause, he said: "As for the town, everyone is from all over the country, as long as they give a little protection money to the gang, not to mention that there are people from the government here, and the gang will never do anything excessive." ”
Su Xin nodded and sighed secretly, it seems that Xiaokang kidnapped him really thought that he was a helpless local tyrant, and the livelihood of the Dragon and Tiger Gang mainly relied on the restaurant business on weekdays, so it was normal.
He looked at the two people in the pavilion again, Xiaokang seemed to be very happy, dancing and telling Yue'er something.
Yue'er occasionally smiled reservedly, sometimes echoing, but she really had the feeling of a childhood sweetheart.
Xiaohuan sighed faintly beside him and said, "Young Master Xiaokang always wants to leave, in fact, Miss Yue'er likes it very much. ”
"What do you mean? Didn't they make an appointment to leave together?" Su Xin wondered.
Xiaohuan shook his head: "Miss usually lives well in the mansion, and she gets along well with the third master, so she won't want to leave!"
The corners of Su Xin's eyes twitched, and he looked at the two people in the pavilion again, looking at their quiet appearance, he suddenly felt a little awkward in his heart.
I hope Xiaokang really just treats Yue'er as a sister!
A few people played until the golden crow fell, and a layer of brilliant golden light disappeared into the sky, leaving only a little afterglow in the valley, and then they reluctantly left.
Sending Yue'er's master and servant back to the mansion, Xiaokang took Su Xin to a home remedy in the inn.
Xiaokang looked at Su Xinzheng and said, "Brother Su, tomorrow, if we can all come back alive, I will help you come to the antidote and let you go, I hope you don't blame me." ”
Su Xin smiled, thinking that I want to blame you, you are no longer here.
He just asked curiously, "What are you going to do in Yunmeng Mountain tomorrow?"
Xiaokang said: "Have you ever heard of Yunmeng Immortal Grass?"
Su Xin shook his head, looked at Xiaokang and waited for him to continue.
"Yunmeng Immortal Grass is a precious medicinal herb that is a specialty in Yunmeng Mountain, and it takes about ten years to produce one, and the location is not fixed. A year ago, a disciple in the gang found a Yunmeng fairy grass on a cliff in Yunmeng Mountain, and this time we are going to pick it. ”
