Volume 1 Jianghu Spring and Autumn Chapter 23 The Eve of Parting

Gradually.

Outside the inn, the wind and rain stopped, and the sky quickly darkened, which was not a sign of the clouds and fog dissipating, but the calm before the storm.

Lou Xinyue took one cup after another, and drank so much that her face was flushed. After drinking, she spit out some truths, such as that she is the biological daughter of the head of the family, such as how the senior brother was burned by the fire, and how the second senior brother who secretly loved died in distress...... Hongyan was unwilling to be sad, and finally was overly sad, drank too much, and fell asleep on the table with a "whimper".

Di Yunfeng shook his head, put Lou Xinyue on his shoulder, and walked towards Haiqin's guest room.

He put Lou Xinyue in the same bed as Haiqin, and did not forget to cover them with the quilt when he left. If he were a man, he might have pounced on him and fought for three days and three nights. But he will take care of women in every detail, which is also what men should do.

Is he a man or not?

He opened a guest room next door.

He pillowed his head, just lying on the bed soon after the storm was approaching with the night, the wind outside the house roared like a ghost, and the heavy rain knocked on the beams and green tiles of the house, "crackling" and noisy!

He closed his eyes and took the wind and rain outside as a pleasant lullaby, without snoring, grinding his teeth, or even dreaming......

......

......

In the early morning of the next day, the sea of clouds was full of sunlight, and it was not until the sun shone on Di Yunfeng's face that he suddenly opened his eyes, held the knife, and the carp stiffened, and his eyebrows were tightly around the customer room.

How could the window be open? He never opened the window when he slept!

But the room was only this size, and there was no one hiding under the beams or the bed, so he shook his head and walked to the window, sucking in the fragrance of the sea, and then slowly relaxed himself.

The autumn day was just right, washing away most of the rain on the docks, and the ship's boss and seamen were busy cleaning up the mess caused by last night's strong winds. The strong winds brought a lot of seafood back to shore, but most of the fat and valuable were scavenged by the early fishermen, so the people had to "pick up the leaks" barefoot, and if they were lucky, they might be able to pick up a few grains of sand.

Therefore, there are many "scavengers" wandering on the shore, they will rob the seafood, they will quarrel over a small fish, and they will laugh because they have found treasures...... All in all, the marina was very lively this morning.

Di Yunfeng has always believed that liveliness is an attitude to life, which is also what he yearns for. He smiled and closed the window, turned around and found a letter on the table, there was no one on it, he first picked up the envelope and sniffed it on the tip of his nose - this smell is Lou Meiren, it can't be wrong.

The letter said: "The road of true martial arts is far away, and I hope to think twice before acting." ”

It's like a parting admonition, but it's useless.

Di Yunfeng shook his head, crumpled the letter paper into a lump, threw it away, turned around and walked out of the guest room to the guest room where Qin'er lived, he was about to open his mouth to call someone, but who knew that there was a greeting from Xiao Er behind him: "This guest officer, this guest room has just been cleaned, and the girl inside has checked out early in the morning." ”

"Check out?" Di Yunfeng frowned, and asked again, "Then do you know where she went?"

Xiao Er scratched his head: "It seems that I went to the direction of Hutou Village," and then said: "That girl looked lost and depressed when she went out, could it be that someone in the family is mourning?"

"You can't take care of it. Di Yunfeng said a word and was about to leave, but the little second stopped him with a smile, stretched out his hand and asked: "Guest officer, I can't take care of it, but you haven't given the girl's room money and yesterday's meal money yet." ”

"How many taels?" Di Yunfeng asked. Xiao Er said: "A total of thirteen taels of silver." ”

"Thirteen taels! It's really a black shop...... Di Yunfeng muttered for a long time before he took out three silver ingots from his arms and threw them to Xiao Erdao: "Oh, here are fifteen taels." ”

"Hey, thank you, guest officer!" Xiao Er shook the silver and blossomed.

Di Yunfeng said inexplicably: "Thank me for what I have done, thirteen taels is the expense, and there are two taels of silver to ask you to give me wine, and drink on the way." ”

When Xiao Er heard this, he squeezed his eyebrows and looked at Di Yunfeng, his eyes were full of disdain, and his mouth was chattering: "I thought it was an uncle, but I didn't expect it to be a dime iron rooster......"

Xiao Er's broken thoughts, but in Di Yunfeng's ears, it is like a compliment, tipping is a situation, and picking the door is also a feeling, after all, diligence and thrift can lead to a family.

After a while, Xiao Er angrily brought the wine and put it in Di Yunfeng's hand, and gave Di Yunfeng a blank look before leaving.

Di Yunfeng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, grabbed Xiao Er, took out one or two pieces of silver from his arms, threw them to Xiao Er, and inquired: "Little brother, do you know where there is a boat rental factory nearby?

Xiao Er grabbed the silver and raised his eyebrows, but this time he was overjoyed, so he changed his respectful face, and first asked: "What is the guest officer doing when renting a boat? Is it going to the sea to catch fish, or going out to sea to pan for sand?"

"Is there a difference between the two?" Di Yunfeng stroked his chin, "Then let's go out and dig for sand, but there is a way?"

"That's going to go to sea, you have to have a big ship, tsk...... Hey, with the current market, fishing boats are easy to make, and big boats are not rented or sold even if they are rich," Xiao Er thought for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "When I went out to buy vegetables this morning, I accidentally saw the emperor list posted on the bulletin board, but it was really the emperor list, with the emperor's seal! At that time, there were too many people, and I didn't see what the top said, but what I heard people talk about was: recruit sailors, go to the east to cross the ocean, and the remuneration can still be sufficient...... Guest officer, you think, it's a royal meal, and silver is definitely indispensable, but the recruitment may be stricter. ”

Di Yunfeng pursed his lips, insiders actually understand that the royal meal is the most unpalatable, if you don't do it well, you have to lose your head, if you do it well, there will definitely be less oil and water, if you memorize it for a while, you will encounter some state secrets to prevent leakage, then you will be killed!

I have to go to see it in person to be insured.

Di Yunfeng said goodbye to Xiao Er, and then asked Xiao Er about the whereabouts of Hutou Village, and then left with wine.

......

......

Hutou Village is very barren, and last night's strong wind blew over many roofs, and at this time, eight out of ten villagers were busy repairing houses and repairing leaks.

Hai Di is not as strong as Hai Sheng, but he also has great strength and can do it, and after getting married, he took the money given by Di Yunfeng to build a building in the village. The building is well workmanship and resistant to blowing, so the whole village is not "bald".

Di Yunfeng wanted to say his final goodbye to Haisheng's family, but he seemed to have come very unfortunately, the door of Haidi's house was locked and no one was seen. Slightly disappointed, he took out the five thousand taels of silver tickets from his bosom, and thought to himself: he was destined to go to a distant land, and whether he was lucky enough to arrive or die at sea, money would be of no use to himβ€”unless the True Martial Kingdom also used silver tickets as currency...... But it's also unrealistic to think about that.

So he slipped the silver ticket through the crack in the door and turned to leave.

Di Yunfeng wanted to go to Haisheng's grave to pay respects again, and told Haisheng that his family had settled down. But before he could get closer, he heard Haiqin's heart-rending cry.

It turned out that their family was accompanied by Hai Sheng's grave, and when Hai Sheng's soul returned to his hometown, he would not feel lonely and lonely.

Di Yunfeng smiled even more bitterly, he could have gone to say hello, but he felt that it was a little redundant and no longer necessary.

People who are destined to leave, isn't it just to add sadness to those who are destined to care?

"I should come back again, I hope it doesn't matter. ”

Di Yunfeng waved his hand out of thin air and left in style.

......

......

Canghai City has indescribable prosperity, and all rivers flow into the sea, and by the way, business opportunities and silver are brought over. The clothes of the people living here are never too bad, their appearance is never ugly, and they walk with the wind.

Di Yunfeng took off his purple shirt and put on a cloth shirt, deliberately scattered his hair, his appearance was a little less majestic but a little more shrewd, and his behavior was a little less upright and a little more ruffian. Because the old sailors of the dock are all so virtuous, but apparently his poor appearance is not treated well by the people in the city, and people regard him as a second-rate son from the dock.

Not many people have seen the imperial list posted outside the city, which is just enough for him to see clearly:

"The Son of Heaven is enlightened, the immortals hold dreams, there is a fairy on the top of the sea, a few bowls of fairy soup, and a number of elixirs. Marrying a fairy can ensure the safety of the country, and eating fairy soup can prolong life, if you can eat the elixir, you can ensure immortality and longevity with the sky! The emperor did not think about tea and rice, and became thinner and thinner, in order to ensure the health of His Majesty the emperor, Shang Heng was sent to lead the troops to the sea......

There are more than 300 words on the emperor's list, bullshit, and heavenly reason is not counted, but the monarch's order is like a mountain, ridiculous, damn it, it's really sad.

There is also a recruitment post next to the emperor's list, which says: "Now recruit a number of sailors, and those who have been experienced for no less than ten years are preferred." Don't disturb those who are bastard, otherwise they will be severely punished for violating the law and discipline!"

"Huh, the fairy can sleep with anyone, do you think it's me?" Di Yunfeng said with disdain, so he never cared about other dogs looking down on people.

Mo said that the imperial grain was delicious, and the official who kept the register on the side was dozing off, and there were only three names on the roster on his desk. From this point of view, the sailors are not interested in seeking pills and asking immortals at all.

Di Yunfeng sat down, knocked on the table, and said softly, "Official, do you still accept people?"
