Chapter 32: The Gentleman on the Beam
Jiang Haiyu smiled, always looking so restrained, Mrs. Qiu stood up and said, "Old man, let's not be an eyesore here, leave some time for them to talk." He took Qiu Qiming's arm and left the room.
The two of them were left in the room, and the whole house was condensed, and the sound of their breathing could be heard.
Zhang Shuofei broke the embarrassing atmosphere and said, "Miss Jiang, I'm really ashamed that I practiced the fake "Demon Treasure Book" and still showed off in front of people. ”
Jiang Haiyu felt even more sorry for him, knowing that it was a fake "Demon Treasure Book" but not telling him, seeing that his body was not abnormal before, he didn't expect that there was a hidden mystery, which caused him to go mad, and said: "Zhang Gongzi, you can't say that, you don't know if it's fake, we are all blinded." ”
Zhang Shuofei's face was very gloomy, and he stood up and said, "When I get better, I must personally ask my second uncle, why did you harm me with a fake "Demon Treasure Book"?" The voice was very angry, seriously hurting my self-esteem.
Jiang Haiyu stood up and persuaded him, and said, "Gongzi Zhang, you don't have to be like this, when you are well, I will accompany you to Xishan." ”
Zhang Shuofei was stunned for a moment, glanced back at Jiang Haiyu, and asked, "Miss Jiang is really willing to accompany me?"
Jiang Haiyu smiled and said, "Naturally." ”
Zhang Shuofei felt that he had a spiritual pillar. , said: "With your support for me, I am not afraid of anything." ”
Jiang Haiyu's face flushed, he lowered his head shyly, and Zhang Shuofei said: "My second uncle has fled to Mobei, and when I get better, I will take you to see the beautiful scenery of Mobei Yellow Sand." ”
Jiang Haiyu saw that the time was not early, and he was staying behind, he was afraid that he would be laughed at by the master, and said: "Zhang Gongzi rest early, and I will come to see you tomorrow." He got up and walked out of the room and hurried back to his quarters.
After staying for a few days, Mrs. Qiu often came to chat with Jiang Haiyu, and in her spare time, she practiced silver needles, but there was no progress at all, and she was a little irritable.
At this time, the lamp was already in his hand, Jiang Haiyu was strolling in the courtyard, and suddenly saw a black shadow flashing in the side yard, Jiang Haiyu thought: "There is a thief in the village?"
I saw the man in black passing through several courtyards and getting out of Zhuangzi, Jiang Haiyu thought that the thief had succeeded, and wanted to stop her, speed up her pace, the man in black in front of him was very fast, and Jiang Haiyu always kept a distance from her with all his strength.
Suddenly, seeing that the man in black in front of him was standing and couldn't leave, Jiang Haiyu chased closer, and the man in black turned around and said, "Girl, don't chase, it's me." ”
Jiang Haiyu fixed his eyes and saw that it was Mrs. Qiu, and he was stunned and said, "Mrs. Qiu, why are you?"
Mrs. Qiu smiled and said: "Little girl, don't hide it, I'm going to do a deal, you still go back to the village and wait for me, I'll explain it to you clearly when I come back." ”
Jiang Haiyu was puzzled, knowing that she was not doing something bad, and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Mrs. Qiu said, "Do you really want to go?"
Jiang Haiyu stepped forward and said, "Take me there." ”
Mrs. Qiu smiled and said, "Let's go." ”
The two walked together, ran out of ten miles, and came to a high gatehouse, Mrs. Qiu took out a piece of cloth and handed it to Jiang Haiyu, tore her skirt, covered her face, made a look at Jiang Haiyu, jumped over the wall, Jiang Haiyu followed her example, covered her face, and followed.
Mrs. Qiu is in front, Jiang Haiyu is behind, looking at Mrs. Qiu's manners and movements, they are all very skilled, it seems that this is not the first time to do this kind of thing.
Mrs. Qiu touched the front of a house, licked the broken window lattice paper, and saw an old man inside planning to make a plate, and there was a "crackling" sound of abacus in the room.
Mrs. Qiu took out the soft sword at her waist, walked to the door gently, pushed the door, there was no lock on the inside, the door flashed a gap, and seeing that there was no one else in the house, she pushed the door and came to the old man's front like lightning, and the sword was on the old man's neck and said, "Don't speak." ”
The old man trembled with fright, and when he heard the voice of a woman, he whispered, "The woman spares her life." ”
Mrs. Qiu said sharply: "You are a rich and unkind dog, what about the girl who forcibly brought you to your house yesterday?"
The old man's trembling voice said, "In the backyard." ”
Mrs. Qiu said, "Take me there." Pulled him to the door, came to the backyard, was met by the thugs in the courtyard, Jiang Haiyu took out the dagger on his waist to protect Mrs. Qiu, Mrs. Qiu came with a fight, and naturally protected her.
More than a dozen people surrounded the three of them, and when they saw that their master was in their hands, they naturally didn't dare to act rashly, waiting for the opportunity to start, and the old man took the two of them all the way to the backyard, pointed with his hand, and said, "It's in that house." ”
Jiang Haiyu stepped forward and pushed the door open, startled, only to see a woman hanging in the house, having committed suicide by hanging from a beam.
Seeing this, Mrs. Qiu bit her silver teeth, and the sword moved around the old man's neck, and the old man was killed on the spot.
Mrs. Qiu said loudly: "I am "flying on the grass", and I am not afraid of death. ”
Who on the rivers and lakes does not know the "flying on the grass" thief woman, the people in the rivers and lakes call her a "righteous thief", robbing the rich and helping the poor, before she robs, she must first inquire about the fact that the owner has indeed declared that she is in trouble, and many unrighteous people are only to start, and every time she shoots, the more she is swept away, Fengming Villa is so rich, and the money comes from here.
Jiang Haiyu was fortunate to know such a righteous man in the rivers and lakes "flying on the grass" with infinite joy in his heart, and the people in the house heard the words "flying on the grass", and they were so frightened that they ran away in all directions.
Mrs. Qiu took Jiang Haiyu to find the gold and silver vault, found two pieces of cloth, looted the gold and silver, and the two returned with a full load.
Mrs. Qiu was bold and distributed half of the property to Jiang Haiyu, but Jiang Haiyu didn't ask for it, she just wanted to bring herself with her when she was doing this kind of thing.
After living in Fengmingzhuang for more than a month, Qiu Qiming exhausted half of his life's strength, opened up Zhang Shuofei's second vein, relieved Zhang Shuofei's qi and blood reflux, and completely recovered after a few days of recuperation.
Zhang Shuofei was anxious to go to Mobei to find his second uncle Zhang Yi, Jiang Haiyu also wanted to kill the enemy himself, the two said goodbye to Qiu Qiming and Mrs. Qiu, Mrs. Qiu spent this time with them, and she was a little reluctant to hear that they were leaving.
Qiu Qiming put on a feast and practiced for them, and at the banquet, Mrs. Qiu told them to be careful on the road, and told Jiang Haiyu that now all the people under the Qiantianmen are looking for her, so she still disguises herself, and there will be few obstacles on the way.
Qiu Qiming brought them enough coils and sent them out of the village for more than ten miles, and Mrs. Qiu and them shed tears.
Along the way, I kept encountering people from Qiantianmen, riding horses and galloping by, but fortunately, Jiang Haiyu's costume was a woman dressed as a man, with a beard, and she was not recognized.
On this day, Zhang Shuofei and Jiang Haiyu came to a market town, came to a "Sitong Inn", and instructed the shopkeeper to feed the horses and order a few side dishes.
After resting for the night, they continued the next day, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, they looked back and saw two horses galloping to their side.
The two of them are the "deadly double evil" Huang Long and Huang Hu, when the two intersected with them, Er Huang glanced at Zhang Shuofei and Jiang Haiyu, ran twenty meters away, and stopped.
Huang Long looked back at Zhang Shuofei and sneered, "Isn't this the Young Alliance Master?"
Zhang Shuofei knows them, the two of them have a good reputation and stink, they do all kinds of evil, the scum of the rivers and lakes, they go to Mobei, they don't want to make extraneous branches on the way, they don't want to use force with them, and they don't pay attention.
Huang Long glanced at Jiang Haiyu, this man was more beautiful than the eldest girl, so he took a few more looks, and Jiang Haiyu glared at him.
Huang Long smiled and said, "You are a big man, are you afraid to look at it?"
Jiang Haiyu wanted to argue with him for a few words, but Zhang Shuofei pressed his arm to prevent her from having much trouble, Jiang Haiyu suppressed the anger in her heart and bowed her head silently.
Huang Hu urged the eldest brother: "Big brother, let's go, I have to rush to Zhu's house for a banquet." ”
Huang Long heard this, and the two of them beat their horses away.
Jiang Haiyu heard that they were still going to the banquet, who was so blind and made friends with them? asked, "Where is the Zhu family from?" Why did these two people also go to the banquet?"
The two rode slowly, and Zhang Shuofei said: "The Zhu family has been the leader of the martial arts alliance for generations in the past, just because the Zhu family is tired of the dispute between the rivers and lakes and retired here. ”
Jiang Haiyu snorted, and the words of sycophants could also come out of his mouth.
Zhang Shuofei saw that he was talking rudely, and his face turned red and said, "A few days ago, I received a letter from my father asking me to go to the banquet on his behalf. ”
Jiang Haiyu knew that the assassination of Zhang Yi was not in a hurry, and he could also gain a little insight by the way, so he visited the old hero and said, "Where Zhang Gongzi goes, I will accompany myself." ”
Zhang Shuofei suddenly had a feeling of excitement, and said, "The Zhu family is not far ahead, let's hurry up." ”
The two rode their horses and whips, galloped forward, walked fifty or sixty miles, and came to Beizhen City, where the traffic was busy, and the pedestrians who shuttled back and forth formed a human dragon.
On both sides are all kinds of shops, people in and out are endless, and there are small stalls and vendors on the street, calling for buying and selling, and the street is a prosperous scene.
The two were inconvenient to ride horses, leading horses side by side, Zhang Shuofei inquired about the Zhu family's mansion from a pedestrian on the street, and walked around the front street to the back street, where there were not as many passers-by as there were on the front street.
The two turned over and got on their horses, drove for a while, and saw that the front was lively again, with a long queue, and this gift box was placed beside them, which was a guest who came to pay tribute.
There were more than a dozen people dressed like housekeepers, standing nearby to maintain order and greet the guests, Zhang Shuofei jumped off the horse, glanced back at Jiang Haiyu, and walked forward.
A family member saw the two of them coming towards this side, hurriedly trotted over, and arched his hand: "Who are the two of you?"
Zhang Shuofei bowed his hand and saluted: "Zhangjiabao Zhang Shuofei." ”
Jia Ding was stunned for a moment, this is the famous Shaomeng advocate Shuofei, he didn't dare to slack off, and put a "please" word on the two, and walked towards the door with the two.
Zhang Shuofei came to the table, took out a three thousand taels of silver ticket, and put it on the table, the bookkeeper was stunned, and looked up to see which guest was so generous.
Zhang Shuofei reported his name, and the man suddenly realized that this was the famous master of the Martial Arts Young Alliance, and saluted him with his fists.
Jiang Haiyu naturally couldn't eat and drink in vain, and took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels in his arms, "Jiang Haifeng." "It's inconvenient for me to reveal my real name, so I followed it in my brother's name.
The bookkeeper glanced at Jiang Haiyu, this person came with Zhang Shuofei, and he spent a lot of money on the shot, and secretly admired it.
A middle-aged man in his forties, dressed as a housekeeper, walked over and arched his hand: "Young Alliance Master, my lord is waiting in the house, please come with me." "Welcome the two in.
People come and go at the door, in the courtyard, in the corridor, as long as there is a place where people can stand, there are people, gathered in groups of three or five, talking loudly.
The housekeeper took the two of them all the way through several courtyards and came to the main hall, the hall was very large, it could accommodate five or six hundred people, and the guests sitting inside were also qualified seniors in martial arts.
An old man in his sixties, who was very burly, with a white beard like silver, a ruddy face, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "I don't know if the master of the Young League is married, I will miss the distance, forgive the sins, forgive the sins." ”
Zhang Shuofei bowed and said, "The old-timers are more polite." ”
This person is Zhu Shou, his martial arts are unfathomable, righteous and thin, the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance was originally inherited by him, he said nothing and did nothing, retreated here, and lived an idyllic life.
Zhu Shou celebrated his sixtieth birthday this year, and all the martial arts channels came to celebrate his birthday, and even the master of the Young Alliance came in person, and he suddenly felt that his face was brightened.
