Chapter 160: Kong Laosan
The grievances between the two can be said to have been going on for a long time, Yue Chenglong can't wait to devour Zhan Qingxiao alive, although he knows that his strength is not as good as Zhan Qingxiao, but the enemy is naturally very red when he meets, and he doesn't think much about it at the moment, and directly attacks Zhan Qingxiao with a sharp sword palm.
"Big brother, calm down! Things are not what you imagined!" Yue Linglong tried to stop Yue Chenglong, but to no avail. Yue Chenglong is also a master of the fugue period, and for Yue Linglong, a scumbag, he can't stop it if he wants to.
Zhan Qingxiao didn't let his attack hit him, so he rolled on the bed and rolled over and got out of bed. Yue Chenglong's spiritual power sword palm was empty, but the remaining strength of the sword palm shattered the bed.
Zhan Qingxiao picked up his shoes, directly launched the shadow walking step, and escaped, leaving a sentence while escaping: "Linglong, let's talk about this later!"
"Where to escape!" Yue Chenglong saw Zhan Xiaoxiao fleeing, and hurriedly wanted to chase him out, but Yue Linglong finally stopped him.
"Big brother, stop chasing!
"Don't stop me!" Yue Chenglong said angrily.
"I have nothing to do with Brother Zhan, it was last night that he was drunk and suddenly came to my room. I slept on my stomach. Yue Linglong explained.
Only then did Yue Chenglong notice that Yue Linglong was dressed neatly, not like the two of them sleeping together, and he could only say hatefully: "Count you kid running fast! If I see you again, I will definitely skin you raw." ”
There is no need for Zhan Qingxiao to escape, after all, the sum of ten Yue Chenglong is not necessarily his opponent, but he no longer knows how to face Yue Linglong, could it be that he told her that he was drunk and treated her as a hundred miles of Lingju? It is estimated that he came up directly with a slap at that time. So, he had no choice but to flee.
"It turns out that I'm not back to Shenwu City!" Out of Xiangyun Tower, Zhan Qingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, he thought he was drunk and returned to Shenwu City. "However, how could this Yue Chenglong and Yue Linglong suddenly run to Nanli City, and they happened to live in the same inn as us?"
"Forget it, I don't want to do it so much!I'll ask her again when I have the chance!" Zhan Qingxiao shook his head, feeling a little hungry, now he must not return to Xiangyun Tower, after all, Yue Linglong and they have not left yet, if they go over, Yue Chenglong will have to do it with him every minute.
He found a random restaurant, then ordered some food, and ate breakfast peacefully. After eating, get ready to leave.
There was a loud "pop", and a burst of wine came to the scene, and it was the guy who brought the wine in the morning who smashed a wine jar.
"Useless thing, do you know how expensive this wine is? This is the Jiangchuan tiger bone wine that was transported all the way from Jiangchuan City!" the restaurant shopkeeper slapped the guy in the face and scolded.
"I'm sorry, shopkeeper, I didn't sleep well last night......"
"What is the matter with Lao Tzu who didn't sleep well last night? I don't sleep so late, and I have to learn from other people's shifts, and I can earn a few copper ......plates until late at night," the shopkeeper chattered and scolded.
"The shopkeeper is a small mistake, and the small one must work hard in the future to compensate for your losses!"
"Can you afford to compensate? For this jar of wine, the price alone is five taels of silver, not including the cost of transporting it. I don't think you kid should continue to do it! Pack up your things in the morning and fuck me off!"
"Shopkeeper, you are gracious, the little mother has been sick in bed for many years, and needs this job to buy medicinal herbs to continue her life, if you don't let the little one work, the old mother will be tortured to death. The man begged so much that he knelt down directly to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper didn't have a trace of sympathy, and said coldly: "Wouldn't it be better for you to tell your old immortal mother that died?
When the guy heard the words of the restaurant shopkeeper, his muscles were exposed, his fists were clenched, and the muscles on his face were shaking, as if he was forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.
"What's the matter? You want to beat me? Kong Laosan, Kong Laosan, that's all you want! Where did you go before when you commanded our Nanli City? Think about you, Kong Laosan, when he was young, he was also a good man in our Nanli City. Lao Tzu has to call you Confucius when he sees you, and now for you, an old and immortal mother, doing things under Lao Tzu has become the same as a grandson?"
"The shopkeeper is the fault of the third child, please give the third child a chance, I will definitely work hard in the future......"
"No, you don't have to plead so hard, as long as you're willing to get under my crotch and learn to bark three times, I'll allow you to continue this work?" said the shopkeeper's grim face,' said Pi with a smile on his face.
The anger on Kong Laosan's face was overflowing, and he drilled through his crotch and learned to bark at a dog, which was a completely undignified thing. In other words, no one can accept it, that Kong Laosan was very active in his heart at this time, and finally lowered his head.
The shopkeeper laughed wildly and spread his legs, Kong Laosan lowered his head and slowly crawled towards him.
Zhan Qingxiao frowned slightly and got up. walked over, grabbed Kong Laosan's arm, and dragged Kong Laosan to his feet with a strong force.
"People, these knees, only kneeling to the sky and kneeling to parents, how can you kneel to such scumbags? When you have no dignity, are you still alone?" Zhan Qingxiao said to Kong Laosan.
"Where are you the one who came out of nowhere, nosy!" said the shopkeeper with a sudden change in his face.
"How much money do you have for all this wine, I bought it all!" Zhan Qingxiao stared at the shopkeeper and said indifferently.
"Huh!" the shopkeeper saw that Zhan Qingxiao was wearing a white sleeved robe, and he didn't look very rich
Some of them sneered, "Where are you from? Do you understand the rules? You can also intervene in this matter?"
"And thou shalt say, How much is the silver of these wines? Zhan Qingxiao didn't answer his words, pointing to the remaining nine jars of wine, still like this.
"Can you afford it?" said the shopkeeper contemptuously.
Zhan Qingxiao directly took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels, slapped it on the shopkeeper's face, and then turned to Kong Laosan and said, "How is it? Can you still carry wine now?"
Seeing that Zhan Qingxiao directly bought these drinks, Kong Laosan was shocked and hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes, it's just that a small person can only carry one altar at a time, where is the son going to take it?"
"One jar is enough!
Kong Laosan hurriedly answered, and then pointed to other wines and asked, "That son, what about the other wines?"
After all, Zhan Qingxiao bought it with real money, and Zhan Qingxiao did this is equivalent to saving him, otherwise he would have to go back to the Year of the Monkey for ten taels of silver.
"Smashed!" Zhan Qingxiao said coldly.
"Ahh
"What? smashed, guest officer, are you too wasteful, why don't you just put it in our restaurant, and come over to drink when you are free!" He didn't expect that Zhan Qingxiao didn't take all of them, but only took away one altar, and naturally had some little Jiujiu in his heart.
It was not easy for him to transport this batch of wine from Jiangchuan City, if Zhan Qingxiao kept the wine, he could sell it. After all, in his eyes, Zhan Qingxiao will not be able to drink so much in the future, and he still has time to go to Jiangchuan City to transport wine, so that he can earn more silver.
"yes! Is there any problem?" Zhan Qingxiao ignored the shopkeeper, but said to Kong Laosan.
"No ......" Kong Lao Sanxin said, sure enough, we don't understand the world of rich people.
"No, it's up to you to smash it, smash it for me, don't leave a little left!" Zhan Qingxiao pointed to the wine and said.
"Me?" Kong Laosan asked suspiciously, pointing his finger at himself.
Seeing Zhan Qingxiao nodded, Kong Laosan looked distressed, these wines cost eighty taels of silver, and if there are these eighty taels of silver, then his mother may be able to recover.
It's just that the money is light, and he has no choice but to be ruthless, pick up the wine jar, and smash it on the ground.
"Smack!" The sound of the wine jar breaking, the wine flowed down the wine jar, exuding a strong aroma of wine, attracting many onlookers around.
One jar of wine was smashed, and only the last jar remained, and Zhan Qingxiao said, "Carry the wine, follow me!"
Kong Laosan carried the remaining jar of wine and followed behind Zhan Qingxiao, who was going to deliver wine to the old man Yuelang, so he walked in the direction of Nancheng.
"Childe, thank you for your righteous action. You're right, you can't live without dignity, and I almost lost what matters most to me. As he walked, Kong Laosan said.
"No thanks, I also see your filial piety to your mother. Zhan Qingxiao said lightly, Kong Laosan's actions made him, a person who has lost his mother for tens of thousands of years, deeply moved, he deeply knew that the taste of losing his mother, and Kong Laosan was to save his mother, so he did such a job, and was so humiliated by the shopkeeper.
From the shopkeeper's words, Zhan Qingxiao heard that Kong Laosan was not such a weak and cowardly person before, and he was also a very bloody man, and it was also because of his mother that he had to shoulder the burden of the family.
The dullness along the way, the two never spoke again, Zhan Qingxiao felt quite bored, so he said to Kong Laosan: "What kind of disease does your mother have, and how many silver taels do you need?"
After all, I carried the wine for myself, and if I could, I would be willing to do this kind of effort.
"If you go back to your son, the old mother is a cold wind and accidentally catches a cold. Because of the family's financial constraints, I never went to the doctor to have a look, nor did I take medicine. Then I kept holding it, and until now, it is very serious, and I have to drink medicine every day to save my life. Kong Laosan said a little sadly.
"The cold wind enters the body, this is just a minor illness, why is it so serious, and you still need to take medicine every day to continue your life?"
"It's my incompetence as a son. Kong Laosan carried the wine, lowered his head, and his tone was very depressed.
When Zhan Qingxiao saw him like this, his heart seemed to be touched by something. Yes, after his mother sacrificed her life to save him, he also blamed himself for his incompetence in his heart.
"Let's go, go to your house. Zhan Qingxiao stopped and said to him.
"Childe, what are you ......" Kong Laosan didn't quite understand, he had to take wine with him just now, but now he suddenly changed his mind and said that he was going to his own house?
"Well, if you are not at home with your mother, presumably she has no one to take care of her, I will take you back to meet your mother first, so that I can find some medicinal materials that can cure it, so that you can rest assured that you are by my side. Zhan Qingxiao said that he admired this Kong Laosan's character very much, and he was willing to keep him by his side, so that he could help him run errands when he was in the south of the city.
"But...... But ......" Kong Laosan showed a hesitant look on his face, a little at a loss.
"What's wrong?" Zhan Qingxiao asked with a frown.
"My family is really poor and dirty, and the streets where my family lives are the kind of places where filth and dirt are hidden. Childe, your status is noble, and you should not be taken lightly. ”
"It doesn't matter. Ben Di ...... I'm also from that kind of place, and I wouldn't mind that. Lead the way ahead!" Zhan Qingxiao said, although the place where he was born in the fairy world is much better than the human world, but in the fairy world, it also belongs to the kind of place where dirt is hidden.
So Kong Laosan had to take Zhan Qingxiao to his home, walked for half an hour, and came to an alley full of the smell of sour water, the ground was full of some leftovers, and there was another street on the right side of this street, this street was much better than this road, at least the road was paved with stone slabs, and there was a rich attic next to it.
Kong Laosan pointed to the rich attic and said: "That is our most famous Qinglou Jade Girl Pavilion, these leftovers are splashed by them every night, at that time, there are some beggars competing for these leftovers, but after the robbery, the oil and water here and the fine food residue are left here, so it will be so stinky here! ”
Seeing Zhan Qingxiao covering his nose, he hurriedly explained that he was used to smelling this smell, so he didn't feel anything.
Walking into the depths of this alley, and then coming to a winding alley, those smells disappeared.
In front of it were rows of wooden houses, and there was an open space next to them, on which a few bare-bare children were playing in the mud.
When those children saw Kong Laosan coming, they all laughed and shouted, "Kong Laosan is back! Kong Laosan is back!"
They shouted and shouted, and they held hands and sang nursery rhymes in circles.
"Kong Laosan, be a ranger. ”
"No evil is always folded. ”
"A pair of colored eyes go all over the world. ”
"Scourge the big yellow flower of the girl. ”
"Kong Laosan, be a thief. ”
"Snatching people's clothes, shoes and hats. ”
"Bullying the weak and fearing the hard to do great evil. ”
And the people sued him to his yamen. ”
Seeing this, the official sent a catcher to arrest him. ”
"The loving mother felt sorry for her son's sin, and was willing to receive thirty planks. ”
"Kong Laosan, daughter-in-law runs. ”
"My full-moon son is ill. ”
"The old mother was at ease. ”
"I don't know how sick I am!"
"Shame, shame, shame!"
The group of little dolls made a grimace at Kong Laosan, and then scattered and fled.
Kong Laosan's face turned red, and Zhan Qingxiao seemed to hear Kong Laosan's past from this ballad. This ballad sings that Kong Laosan is a ruffian hooligan gangster, who often robs people and things, and was later arrested by the police, his mother took thirty boards for him in order to save him, and his daughter-in-law also ran away, and his son who was just full moon was also sick and difficult to recover.
"Childe, I've changed my ......," Kong Laosan hurriedly explained.
"You don't have to explain anything to me, what I see you as I see you, you are what you are in my heart. Even if you have done evil in the past, but you have corrected it, I naturally do not care about these pasts. Zhan Qingxiao could see his filial piety to his mother, and he suddenly woke up.
"Thank you Gongzi for your trust!" Kong Laosan's eyes were filled with tears and he said excitedly. Although he had come to his senses and repented, no one seemed to believe him except his mother. Now that he has Zhan Qingxiao's trust, he feels that he is still very lucky.
When I came to Kong Laosan's house, this house was not ordinary and dilapidated, the grass and trees on the roof had already broken a few holes, and the cold wind was blowing in for a while.
His mother lives in this place, so it's no wonder that this illness can be cured.
Zhan Qingxiao looked at the house, and there was hardly anything of value, except for a small wooden box that looked very delicate on top of the incense case, which was covered with golden lines and carved with a tail-like pattern in the center.
Zhan Qingxiao saw that this box looked very exquisite, at least worth a few taels of silver, but he still did not sell it, which shows that this box is relatively important.
Kong Laosan saw Zhan Qingxiao staring at the box for a long time, and said: "This box was handed down by my family, and when my father stayed at that time, he forbade us to sell it." It is said that it is something that has been handed down from the ancestors, and if you sell it, you will suffer from heaven. ”
"What's in there?" Zhan Qingxiao couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Hey, what can there be, it's just an empty box. Kong Laosan put down the wine jar and said disappreciatively.
"Can I take a look?" Zhan Qingxiao suddenly felt very curious, so he came up with the idea of taking a look.
Kong Laosan stepped forward and picked up the box and handed it to Zhan Qingxiao, "Just take a look, if it's other ordinary objects, as long as Gongzi likes it, you can give it directly to Gongzi, but this is an ancestral heirloom, and you can't give it away, please forgive Gongzi." ”
"I don't want your stuff, I'm just curious. Zhan Qingxiao took the box and opened it.
There was really nothing inside, only a groove, the shape of which was almost exactly the same as the pattern in the center of the box, only one size smaller, and it must have contained something like a tail.
"Wait!" Zhan Cheng suddenly caught a glimpse of the box.
