Yongzhou and Chenzhou are separated by Guiyang Prison, and between the three lies thousands of miles long north and south mountain ranges, and Niujiao Mountain is on the west side of this north and south mountain range. The location of Niujiao Mountain www.biquge.info Pen & Fun & Pavilion is actually out of the boundary of Yongzhou and is at the northernmost point of Guiyang Prison. Starting from Niujiao Mountain to Guiyang Prison, we climbed over several peaks in the north and south mountain ranges, and then went on the official road.

After walking on the official road, we traveled much faster. After a total of six days, we rushed from Yongzhou to the Chenzhou boundary, and the speed was not slow.

By the time our carriage arrived at the west gate of Chenzhou City, it was already dark. The officer guarding the west gate is named Qiu Wentian, and he knows me well. Seeing our team coming over, Qiu Wentian smiled and said, "Brother Gu, it's really time for you to arrive, if it's a little later, I will close this city gate." ”

Qiu Wentian is of medium stature, with a strangely long horse face, and two mustaches on his upper lip, looking like a man with oily hair, but in fact he is a guard who abides by his duties.

At first, I always felt weird, the people in the rivers and lakes have their own principles and rules, and they have never had much intersection with the people in the government. When the master and Zhao Chuanshu were dealing with people in the officialdom, I was somewhat resistant in my heart, thinking that the master and Zhao Chuanshu's approach was very inappropriate, and it was not done by people in the rivers and lakes.

However, after the establishment of the dart game, I changed this view, and began to slowly feel that the master and Zhao Chuanshu made sense of their approach. It's always strange for outsiders to look at insiders, and it wasn't until I opened my own game that I realized what it was like. After all, the Giant Eagle Gate and the Iron Sword Sect are not deep, and they can't not follow the imperial court decrees like Shaolin Wudang. wants to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, but the relationship in officialdom is not missing at all.

I hugged my fist at him and smiled, "It looks like we're really catching up this time." Yang Chong, take down the altar of old daughter Hong. ”

Yang Chong responded, and immediately took down a large jar of wine from a carriage in front of him and put it on the desk on the side of the city gate, and I said to Qiu Wentian: "Lord Qiu, this is my ten-year daughter Hong brought back from Yongzhou, so I will give Lord Qiu a jar for you brothers to relieve their fatigue." ”

Qiu Wentian smiled and said, "Brother Gu is really a happy person, you are already very hard at walking darts, and you have to bring us some good wine every time, I really don't know what to say to us." ”

I smiled and said, "Lord Qiu, you are here to defend the city and ensure the safety of a place, which is much more difficult than us, and Gu should be like this." ”

These are my words. In the past, I never felt that there was anything to admire about these officers and soldiers defending the city, but as I opened the dart bureau for longer and longer, and dealt with these officers and soldiers more and more, I gradually understood the difficulties of these officers and soldiers defending the city.

Qiu Wentian said with a smile: "Since it is Brother Gu's good intentions, we are welcome, you guys enter the city quickly, I am going to close the city gate." ”

I nodded, beckoned back, and the brother who was driving the car did not hesitate to drive towards the city.

Watching the dart cart slowly drive into the city, I said, "Lord Qiu, I will take my leave first, and I will come to the dart game when I am free, and we will drink together." ”

Qiu Wentian said: "That's very good, farewell." ”

"Farewell. ”

Walking into Chenzhou City, we no longer ride horses, there are rules in the city, and horses are not allowed to ride in normal times. We walked east along the street, and although it was late, the city was still very lively, with restaurants singing and street lamps hanging high.

Chenzhou City is not as good as Hengzhou City Qionglou Yuyu, and it is not as bright as Yongzhou City, but the people in Chenzhou City are very hospitable and easy to get along with. At the beginning, most of the reasons why Bailitu and I chose to open a dart game in Chenzhou was because of the hospitality of Chenzhou City. may be influenced by the humanities, and I have changed from obscurity at the beginning to a hero of Cantonese friendship. After all, we are engaged in the business of darts, and if we make more friends, we will have an easier way to go.

The two main streets in Chenzhou City divide the entire Chenzhou City into four areas, and the intersection of the two main streets is the square in the city, which can be said to be the most lively place in Chenzhou City. And our dart board is set up in the north of Dongxi Street, only a hundred zhang away from the square. It's close.

The name of the world's dart bureau has spread all over the south of Jiangling, and the people in Chenzhou City naturally recognize us.

When we were about to get to the dart game, two cheers came from the gate in the distance: "The dart head is back!"

I looked up and saw that the two brothers guarding the gate of the dart bureau were Qian Pinyan and Zhu Kui, both of whom were over thirty years old.

Zhu Kui said hello to us, and then hurriedly ran in, Qian Pinyan took my horse and said with a smile: "Darthead, you can be regarded as back, the dart game has prepared wine and food, and several dart masters have been waiting for a long time." ”

I said, "Did the master come back?"

Qian Pin said: "Shi Dart Master has not returned yet. ”

I nodded, and after giving an order to Yang Chong, I walked into the dart game with Bailitu.

The world dart bureau is built very large, the total area has reached one and a half acres wide, there are many houses in the dart bureau, more than enough to accommodate more than 100 people. At first, I thought that it would be good to be able to find a big place in Chenzhou City, but I didn't expect Huang Zhutou to find such a big place for us, which really surprised me and Bailitu at the beginning.

However, Huang Zhutou said that this is the meaning of Lu Jingzhao, the governor of Chenzhou, and we have found the Eight Treasures of exquisite coral for Huang Zhutou, and Lu Jingzhao has already known that this mansion was given to us by Lu Jingzhao.

Baili and I walked into the dart game and walked past the eaves of the gate, where a group of people were loading the dart cart in the open space in the front yard. Seeing us coming, these people greeted us together: "Dart head, Baili dart master." ”

I hugged my fist at them, looked at the four or five dart carts in the yard, and said, "Whose dart is this?"

One person said: "Back to the dart, these are the cloths of the old man Wei in the west of the city, and they will be sent to Hengzhou tomorrow morning." ”

At this moment, four people greeted him from the lobby. The first person was named He Yun, with a medium build, a brown suit, and he was one of my dart masters, and his kung fu was the deepest among all the dart masters.

A fat man on He Yun's left is named Zhang Han, and a tall man on the right is named Li Shubai, these two people are also my dart masters, similar in age to Yang Chong, and they are a few years older than me.

The most marginal old man among the four is the housekeeper in the dart game, named Zhou Huaiyuan, his age is the oldest person in my dart game, and we all call him Uncle Zhou on weekdays.

He Yun and the others hugged their fists at me and Bailitu, and He Yun said, "Darthead, Baili brothers, you are back." ”

I saluted them back, and I said, "Why hasn't the master come back yet?"

More than ten days ago, we were out at the same time as Shi Dart, we went to Yongzhou this time, and Shi Dart went to the place of Guiyang Prison Pingyang, so it stands to reason that we should have come back a long time ago.

He Yun said: "Shi Dart Master has some relatives in Guiyang Prison, I'm afraid that it will be delayed due to something, so I don't have to worry about it." ”

We walked into the lobby, where a table of food and wine had already been prepared.

After we sat down one by one, He Yun said again: "Dart, Master Wei's cloth will be able to dart tomorrow, and in the past few days when you have been away, you have received a total of two darts in the dart bureau, both of which are in Chenzhou." I ordered all the details to be written down in the ledger, and I could see them when the dart head had finished eating. ”

Before going to Yongzhou, I handed over all the big and small affairs in the dart bureau to He Yun to take care of, he was the oldest of these dart masters, and he was steady and careful. With him in charge of the game, we are all relieved.

But I think it's funny too. I was the youngest of them, but I was called by them all day as if I was very old. But they've seen all of my skills, and besides, I'm bigger than them, so they probably don't take my age seriously.

I can't say anything, let them go. (To be continued.) )
