Chapter 275: The Old Man
The scholar was chased in embarrassment, and while running, he shouted: "I'm not a wanted criminal......"
However, the more he ran, the more closely the people behind him chased after him.
With a crackle and panic, the scholar fell to the ground, flattening the book, and for a while, he couldn't get up.
Seeing that the group of fierce men was about to catch up, the scholar's eyes couldn't help but have a look of despair.
Suddenly, a hand reached over and grabbed him by the shoulder.
"I'm not wanted, I'm not really ......"
The scholar was shocked, thinking that he had been caught, and hurriedly pleaded.
"I know you're not. ”
The voice is calm, and there is a sense of peace of mind that people listen to.
The scholar looked up and saw an expressionless paralyzed face, wearing a Taoist robe, and he was a Taoist leader.
Chen Tang stretched out his hand to help him up, and at this time, the group of men had already arrived, and one by one surrounded him with swords in hand, and one of the leaders shouted: "Stinky Taoist, this wanted criminal is what we saw first." ”
Chen Tang didn't talk nonsense, the broken jade sword was unsheathed, and there was a pool of clear water. With a slight flick of the wrist, there was a buzz, and the sound was clear.
Seeing this, the man swallowed his saliva and said, "Dao Chang Sword Chief, you have the final say, disperse and disperse!"
With a wave of his hand, the group of men dispersed in a daze.
"Where are the fugitives?"
In the midst of the cheers, it was a team of officials rushing over, like cats smelling fish.
"Wow, you are clearly the great thief of the ocean, Xuantian Ghost Dao, and you can be caught if you know each other. ”
The officials took out a stack of portraits, flipped through them casually, and then took out one, pointed at Chen Tang and shouted.
In a short period of time, Chen Tang saw two so-called arrest methods in succession, and he really had the feeling of watching an absurd drama.
"Are you all blind fools? This is Captain Mo!"
A catcher came quickly, recognized Chen Tang at a glance, was startled, and immediately shouted. Then apologized: "Captain Mo, these guys have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, please forgive me." ”
As soon as Chen Tang waved his hand, he quickly took the official and hurriedly left:
"Brother Shi, what's going on with Captain Mo?"
"People have nine doors, do you understand? Hmph, you pass the word down, let everyone wipe the bright spots, fortunately I was in time this time, if there is a real conflict, see how you die?"
Hearing the name of the nine doors, the officials were silent and did not dare to speak out.
"Thank you for saving your life. ”
The scholar said to Chen Tangzuo.
Chen Tang looked at him and suddenly asked, "Are you hungry?"
The scholar was stunned, and then lowered his head slightly embarrassed.
Chen Tang said: "I'll invite you to dinner." ”
"What's so embarrassing about this?"
The scholar was a little reserved.
"If you want to eat, come with me, I have something to ask you. ”
Chen Tang said, taking the lead.
The scholar hesitated slightly, but finally gritted his teeth, packed up his books and other things, and followed. He had been hungry for a day, and it was really uncomfortable. Now someone is invited to eat, no matter what, eat a full stomach first.
Back at the inn, Chen Tang instructed the shopkeeper to prepare wine and food and send them to the room, and he brought people up to sit down first.
The scholar still looked nervous and nervous.
Chen Tang looked at him and said, "Ning Yi, Qinzhou people's clan, which county is from, how did you come to this Fenglin County?"
When the scholar heard this, he was shocked on the spot, and said in a daze: "Does the Taoist know me?"
Chen Tang said slowly: "You can answer my words." ”
Ning Yi was uneasy in his heart: "I fled from Songcheng, and I was going to take a boat to Jiangnan, but I spent all my money and fell here. I wanted to make a living in the city, and I didn't want to be seen as a wanted criminal......"
Chen Tang asked again: "Where is your old mother?"
When Ning Yi heard this, he was even more shocked: who is this Dao Master, how can he even know this...... sighed: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, she became ill and died. ”
Chen Tang said in a deep voice: "Festival mourning." ”
Ning Yi was confused, and he didn't dare to ask.
After a while, a hot meal was delivered and a table was filled.
"Eat. ”
Chen Tang said, and lifted the chopsticks first.
Smelling the fragrant smell, Ning Yi couldn't stop swallowing saliva and started eating. While eating, he didn't know what sad things he thought, so tears flowed down his eyes, and he quickly wiped them away: "Dao Chief, it's no wonder that you are out of shape." ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
Chen Tang replied casually.
After a full meal, Xiao Er cleaned up and served tea.
Chen Tang took a sip of tea and asked, "Ning Xiucai, you said you were going to flee to Jiangnan?"
Ning Yi nodded: "I do have such a plan." ”
Chen Tang pouted: "Over there in Jiangnan, it's not much better, it is said that it was chaotic a while ago." ”
Ning Yi exclaimed, "How is that good?"
He was well informed and didn't know much about the current situation. Now that he heard about the turmoil in Jiangnan, he suddenly had no owner of the six gods, and sighed: "The sky and the earth are big, is there no place to stand?"
Chen Tang looked at him and understood this hesitant and helpless mentality. As a scholar, but he has not obtained a higher level of fame, he is just a showman, even if he has practiced some martial arts, he dares to travel to study, and his vision is different from ordinary people. But in the end, it is still limited by the shackles of the world era, and when the troubled times come, it is like a fly that has lost its head, and it is difficult to stand on its own.
Recalling the day, I returned to my hometown from the capital, passed through Xinbai Town, got acquainted with Ning Yi, and went to Fayuan Temple together. Now that the time has passed, I didn't expect to meet again in Fenglin County.
Goodbye to the old man, although Chen Tang did not take off his painting skin, he did not want to see the other party in trouble, so he ignored it.
At the moment, he asked: "Ning Xiucai, you are from Qinzhou, do you know Gaocheng?"
Ning Yi hurriedly said: "I know, it is adjacent to my hometown Songcheng. ”
Hearing this, Chen Tang breathed a sigh of relief, and the path was asked: "Please draw a map and come out, how to go from this Fenglin County to Gaocheng." ”
Although Ning Yi was full of suspicion, the other party saved his life and invited him to dinner, which was very kind, and let him do something, he couldn't shirk it. Hurriedly took out the four treasures of the study and drew them on a blank piece of paper. The final drawings came out, and the effect was sloppy.
Chen Tang does not require precision and meticulousness, as long as the direction is determined, the place of the route is determined, and there is a route guide.
Subsequently, he asked the shopkeeper to open an extra room, let Ning Yi stay, and invited dinner. Ning Yi was grateful, he didn't know why the other party wanted to help him, and he was confused.
At night, after washing, Ning Yi sat in the room, sighing for a long time, his brows tightly locked. Today, I met a noble person and solved the predicament, but what about tomorrow and what about the future? Jiangnan has been unable to go, and I have not been entangled in a boat. But if he stays in Fenglin County, once he loses Chen Tang's protection, he will be regarded as a wanted criminal, and then arrested and put in a prison cell. became a prisoner, but his life hung by a thread.
He heard that it was very dark in the Yamen prison. Many of them were not wanted at all, and they were also caught, so that the officials could receive the reward. Some of the prisoners in prison were even dragged out in the middle of the night to behead and become substitute ghosts......
Call!
Suddenly the yin qi swept up in the room, and then a slender figure appeared.
Seeing this, Ning Yi said in surprise: "Xiaohuan, why did you come out?"
