Chapter 258: Li Bufan's apprenticeship
Bao Daxing walked down the street in despair, he was in a terrible mood now, and he urgently needed a jar of wine to buy drunk. However, alcohol has long been banned in Hidden Sun City, and with martial law in the city, even the lees of alcohol cannot be found.
Before I knew it, I came to a place.
"Li Ji Liquor Shop" four gold-inlaid characters, the door of this building. This is really the only "legal" place to sell wine in Yinyang City, and the owner of the liquor shop, Cao Dewang, has disappeared since he was killed by Li Xiancheng in Cao's Governor's Mansion, and now it has become an empty building.
In the cellar, the soldier found a jar of red water wine.
He drove everyone out and sat down in the pavilion himself, drinking sullen wine.
Bao Shunyi, the only seedling of the Bao family, was killed, and as an uncle, he failed to save his nephew, and his heart was full of anger. couldn't help but accommodate his anger to Zhao Lanjiang.
Zhao Lanjiang, a villain, a pure villain, held up the banner of righteousness and retaliated for the events of that year.
So much for!
People like Bao Daxing will not find reasons from themselves.
What kind of thing are you, Zhao Lanjiang? What is the safety of Yinyang City? Is it important to have the inheritance of my Bao family? When you jumped off the city wall just now to catch people, how could you not be killed by the arrows of the Northern Zhou Dynasty?
He drank and cursed. I forgot that it was none other than Zhao Lanjiang and Yinyang's three thousand white horse servants who rescued them from the brink of life and death three days ago.
Before I knew it, I had run out of wine.
At this moment, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him, handed over a jar of wine, and said: "Good scolding! For example, a genius like General Bao has been wronged, but a hypocrite like Zhao Lanjiang has become popular, and the way of the world has really changed!"
Bao Daxing was already drunk, he glanced at the man, his appearance was very ordinary, and he didn't know him. However, since he opened his mouth to scold Zhao Lanjiang and praised his genius, he couldn't help but glance at it in his heart.
"Good scolding!" Bao Daxing said, "Hypocrite, deceitful and thief!"
"Let's go!"
"It's done!"
The two pushed the cups and changed the glasses, and while drinking, they scolded Zhao Lanjiang.
Another jar of wine was drunk, and the middle-aged man said, "We scolded for half an hour, but Zhao Lanjiang was unharmed, General Bao, it's not enough to scold, he has half a hair, we have to find a way to make him suffer a little." ”
Bao Daxing asked, "Do you have a way?"
The middle-aged man smiled, "There is a way, it depends on whether General Bao has the guts." I heard that in the past, Lord Bao was known as Bao Daring in the Western Army, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, deducting military salaries, and doing all kinds of evil, I wonder if the rumors are true?"
Bao Daxing relied on the wine and said with a smile, "That's nature, even if the mosquito flies in front of Lao Tzu, I have to let it leave something." ”
The middle-aged man gave a thumbs up, "It's really impressive!" With that, he took out something from his arms and handed it over. Bao Daxing took a look, and it turned out to be a 100,000 taels of silver tickets!
He shuddered suddenly, and most of the time he woke up drunk, "Who are you, what are you looking for me?"
The middle-aged humanitarian, "Under the surname Wu, it is called Mingxi." ”
"I don't know. ”
"It's just a cheap name, not enough to worry about. Wu Mingxian smiled slightly, "I am the leader of the Great Zhou Blood Crow in Hidden Yang City. ”
"Blood Crow?"
Bao Daxing was full of alcohol and was about to call someone, but was stopped by Wu Mingxi, "General, we all have common enemies, why don't we work together?"
No matter how confused Bao Daxing is, he also knows that he is a soldier, and the leader of the blood crow is now in front of him, and his purpose is obvious, that is, he wants to dismantle Hidden Yang City from the inside.
"In the wine you drank just now, I gave you seven days to break your soul, if you can't get the antidote within seven days, you will rot and die, General Bao is still young, he won't not cherish his life, right?"
"You...... You ......"
Bao Daxing was chilled and speechless.
"Your Bao family is left with your lone seedling, if you die, the Bao family will be extinct. As long as you are willing to cooperate with us obediently, I promise that if you capture Hidden Sun City in the future, you will be the city lord!"
Bao Daxing hesitated.
He is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, in terms of martial arts, he is not even as good as a few subordinates, and he can get to this position today, relying on his whiskers and horses, figuring out his intentions, but let him betray the Ming Dynasty and betray the Western Army, he does not have the courage.
Wu Ming showed that he was indifferent, and slowly stood up, "Since the general has no ideas, I will take my leave." In the past seven days, you should enjoy life, there are not many days left. ”
With that, he walked out the door.
"Wait!"
Bao Daxing called out to him, and after a while, he asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Wu Ming said, "The water supply in Yinyang City, in addition to the Chishui River, is the six wells of the four major squares. You don't have to worry about the Chishui River, but these six wells are now controlled by the military, and I have a few packets of medicinal powder here, I hope that the general will make it convenient and find an opportunity to pour into the well, which should not be difficult for the general. ”
Bao Daxing was shocked, "You want to poison the well water?"
Wu Mingxian waved his hand, "No, it's you who want to poison the well water!"
......
After Li Bufan got off duty, he dragged his tired body and walked on the way home.
The Northern Zhou army attacked the city for three days, and he guarded the city gate for three days. In the past three days, countless white horses climbed from the crossbowmen to the top of the city and repelled the attacks of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Li Bufan also wanted to go up, but was scolded by the captain, "You are the gatekeeper, and it is your duty to guard the city gate!"
The battle was so fierce that he could only see it through the cat's eye of the city gate. Occasionally, he found time to help build a pot of boiling water under the city and help rescue wounded soldiers.
Today, the Northern Zhou Army was withdrawn, and he was ordered to go home to rest.
Although it was wartime, there was no panic in Hidden Yang City as imagined. This city has experienced too many wars, in the face of this situation, everyone has been surprised, on the road, there are white horse Yicong and the Western Army mixed formation, responsible for maintaining order, occasionally some ruffians who take advantage of the chaos to make trouble, and are quickly arrested by the righteous servants.
In Yinyang City, there are many gangs, but unexpectedly, these gangs did not take the opportunity to come out to make trouble, and some gang leaders even brought their subordinates to help maintain law and order on the road.
It is said that last night, Zhao Lanjiang held a meeting with the people of the major gangs. People found that there were suddenly more than a dozen masters of the rivers and lakes beside him, all of whom had been famous for a long time, and now, they all joined an organization called Bimuel. The boss of the Qinglong Gang once expressed dissatisfaction with some of the suggestions put forward by Zhao Lanjiang, and then, there was no more.
These are all things that Li Bufan heard from his colleagues when he was chatting during the day. For Zhao Lanjiang, he still admires it very much, firstly, he is the descendant of the Golden Sword King, secondly, he killed Li Xiancheng and established a very high prestige in the city, and thirdly, he defeated several attacks of the Northern Zhou Dynasty at a very small price.
In the midst of his thoughts, two old men stopped in front of him.
"Boy, are you Li Bufan?"
Li Bufan looked at the two of them, one black and one white, the old man in black had a fierce face, like a fierce god, and the old man in white was white-clothed and white-robed, with a fairy wind and bones.
These two people are very similar to the legendary black and white impermanence.
Li Bufan nodded and took two steps back, "Two, I'm only twenty years old." ”
The old man in black said, "Twenty years old is good, young and strong, strong body, strong bones, and able to endure boiling!"
"Yes, yes, I don't want to die yet. ”
The old man in white asked, "Strange, who said they wanted you to die?"
"Aren't you black and white?"
"Bah, bah!" said the old man in white, "Black and white impermanence is a fart, let them stand in front of Lao Tzu, believe it or not, let Lao Tzu let them die again?"
The old man in black also said, "What is that, even if you kill them, Lao Tzu has a way to bring them back from the dead!"
The two of you say a word, I say a word, and no one refuses to lose the upper hand in the quarrel.
The old man in white asked, "Do you think we are powerful?"
Li Bufan saw that the two of them didn't seem to have a bright mind, and they were about to take a detour, so they only took two steps, but they were held up by the two of them, and they were dragged back, so they said perfunctorily, "Awesome!
"Since it's so powerful, why don't you kneel?"
Li Bufan asked, "You are amazing, what does it have to do with me kneeling?"
The old man in black said, "Of course it matters, the two of us were entrusted by others and decided to accept you as an apprentice, this is the blessing of your ancestors for eight lifetimes of fasting and reciting Buddha cultivation, let you kneel down and kowtow, how can you be wronged again? By the way, what did your father do?"
"Pig killer!"
The old man in white said, "Yes, this is the blessing that your father cultivated after killing pigs for eight lifetimes." ”
Li Bufan felt a little puzzled, these two people seemed to be messing around, but the martial arts revealed between their gestures were not something ordinary people could have, so he asked, "Who asked you to come?"
The old man in white said, "Why do you ask so much? As long as you worship me as a teacher, Lao Tzu will teach you all the skills he has learned in this life to harm people, how about it?"
"I don't do anything harmful. ”
The old man in black said, "As long as you worship me as a teacher, and teach you all the skills you have in this life to heal and save people, how about it?"
Without waiting for Li Bufan to speak, the old man in white said first, "Don't listen to him, he's an old guy, he doesn't have any other skills, so he can cure flower willow disease, men don't lift the disease, and have some ability, if you learn from him, you will become a doctor of flower willow disease sooner or later." Or learn from me, kill a hundred people in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles......"
Before the old man in white finished speaking, Li Bufan had already pounced beside the old man in black, "Master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship, and please teach your skills to benefit the common people of mankind!"
The old man in white looked at him in amazement, "Mo Fei, what do you have to hide?"
Li Bufan's face turned red and scratched his head.
"Haha!" said the old man in black, "Xue Pipi, this time, I won." ”
The old man in white snorted coldly, "It's just a fluke!"
These two old men, black and white, are none other than the medical saint Xue Bao and the poisonous saint Xue Pipi.
On the same day in Yangzhou City, the two fought for the position of the heir of the medical saint, and then the two untied the knot and walked together, one hung the pot to help the world, deceived to eat and drink, and the other harmed people everywhere, deceived to eat and drink. The two traveled in all directions, and half a month ago, they came to Hidden Yang City, and as soon as they entered the city, they crashed into the hands of Yuwen Tianlu.
After Yuwen Tianlu's "serious talk" care, the two of them half pushed and half on, and reluctantly took over a task, and then the news of Yuwen Tianlu's accident came, and the two wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but they were greedy for a few more days of wine, and they were trapped in the city of Yinyang, and they wanted to get rid of the city but couldn't, so they had today's scene.
Xue Bao said, "Good boy, you remember, the old man's surname is Xue Mingbao, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called the medical saints, and you have to remember in the future, respect the teacher, this is your uncle, the poison saint Xue Pipi." ”
Li Bufan gasped.
Xue Bao said proudly, "What's the matter, have you heard of our name?"
Li Bufan nodded, the medical saint claimed that there was no disease that could not be cured, and the poison saint claimed that there was no person who could not be killed, these two people were famous in the Central Plains, Li Bufan was very concerned about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and naturally heard the names of these two people.
"In that case, let's hurry home and cook, your uncle and I haven't eaten for a few days!"
