Chapter 15 (3)

Chu Menglin's surprise was not small, her heart was spinning empty, falling straight down, like a thorn in her back, and she said in her heart: "Daddy actually left the sect palace......?" It must have come after me. But after listening to a few more words, there was no news such as the escape of the sect leader's beloved daughter and the theft of the afterimage sword. Thinking that his father was so partial to Jiang Yanchen that he didn't even pursue the theft of the sword, it must have been that kid who put all the blame on her.

The third brother also played some miscellaneous rumors about the east family and the west family, so he called the bartender to settle the bill. After the bartender was scolded for no reason, he kept his ears on his ears, and in the blink of an eye, he jumped forward, and the third brother scolded again: "When you serve wine, you swallow slowly, put away the money and run faster than a hound." ”

Chu Menglin knew that there was nothing to hear, and her father didn't know where he had gone, so it was not appropriate to delay here, so she tightened the rope that bound the sword and calligraphy behind her, stood up and just wanted to slip away, when she suddenly heard a familiar voice crying: "Uncle shopkeeper, Xiaosheng really didn't want to eat and drink for nothing." A few days ago, I met a robber on the top of the mountain near the left, and I robbed all the silver with me, and now I am tired and thirsty, and my requirements are not too high, so I just want to ask for a bowl of herbal tea to moisten my lips. ”

When the third brother heard this, he snorted, put the silver back in his pocket, and sneered: "What do you mean by this?

The person who spoke before turned his head, and it turned out to be a young man with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, his face was still childish, and he said seriously with a smile: "If you are not sick or sick, why should you curse yourself? As the saying goes, you rely on your parents at home and your friends when you go out, and no one will have a problem outside? Besides, Xiaosheng only asks for a bowl of worthless herbal tea, but several uncles drink a rich and mellow wine that is fragrant for ten miles, and they should pay for it. ”

It is also a psychological effect, the third brother has endured it hard, at this moment it seems to really smell the aroma of wine, "grunt" swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, how can tea not be worthy? What is the price of a pound of good Biluochun, you won't go to the market to inquire? Don't come to confess your relatives, who is your uncle? Where do you look like me?"

The boy scratched his scalp and said, "This...... Xiaosheng has never studied the price of tea, and he is not very clear. I always felt that herbal tea and Biluochun didn't seem to have a relationship, and after thinking about it, I still didn't say anything, but said: "No matter the price, Xiaosheng will definitely have a lot of money in the future, and I will return it in full." I'm about to go to Beijing to catch the exam, so let's wait for me ......."

The shopkeeper held his chin with one hand and said with a sneer: "I'll tell you, when you come to Japan, take a sedan chair with eight people, and blow and blow all the way to repay the money, okay?" The young man was overjoyed, nodded his head, and said: "That's exactly what Xiaosheng meant! Uncle Lao Jia borrowed paper and pencil and waited for me to write a note as evidence. ”

The bartender bent his fingers, flicked a shudder at the back of the young man's head, and sneered: "Our boss teased you, are you too energetic?" I didn't even prepare a pen, and I dared to brag nonsense, saying that I studied hard and went to Beijing to take the exam?" The young man said: "Wrong, Xiaosheng has explained before, my luggage, including a change of clothes, was put in a package and robbed by the robbers." ”

The third brother laughed sharply: "It's amazing, the current robbers are so educated, and they have also grabbed the four treasures of the study, won't a large number of robbers and robbers gush out on the four sides of the land in the future?" After speaking, he held his stomach with both hands, and smiled back and forth, and the store and the bartender also cooperated to make a big laugh.

The young man said: "Uncle doesn't understand the name of this, the imperial examination system began in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the civil and military officials were selected by sub-disciplines, and the champion had to go through several rounds of examinations, and he had always been one in a hundred, and there was a way to ......" The shopkeeper said impatiently: "I'm too lazy to listen to you to do knowledge, I open a shop to do business, and I don't have extra spare money to give alms called Huazi." But if you get down on your knees and learn how to bark a few times, I'll give you some rations, and I'll just use it as a meat bun to beat the dog, how about it?"

The young man said proudly: "Manly man, how can you bend your waist for five buckets of rice?" The third brother sneered: "You dare to call a big husband? What a martial champion, eat me for a try!" Swinging his fist at his face, he had already fallen backwards, but he really hit the bridge of his nose, and the young man screamed in pain, he really didn't know martial arts at all.

The bartender grabbed the young man's hair again, hit him with his knee in the waist, and the two brothers who were watching the play also stepped forward one after another, squeezed the young man in the middle, punched and kicked, and the young man kept shouting: "Ouch, ouch, a few uncles have something to say, the body is skinny, and the parents who are affected dare to destroy it!" The second brother shouted: "Get out of your mother's uncle and aunt, call the hero!"

That young man is none other than Tang Yuanyuan, who was taken hostage by the head of Kongtong during the robbery of the dart in Chang'an, and is now rushing to the capital to participate in the last round of palace examinations. Chu Menglin looked at his appearance, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he became, and combined with his voice, he finally remembered, and said in his heart: "Inviting this kid to be a companion, although it is not interesting, it is better than nothing." He raised his voice and shouted: "The dog's eyes look at the things that are low, the account of the master, this son has settled it for him, you just have to sift a few taels of wine." He took out a random ingot of yellow gold from his bag and weighed it in his hand.

The shopkeeper looked straight at it, and hurriedly said: "If you have milk, you are your mother, and if you have money, you are your father!" The second brother smiled: "I forgot that there is also a nerd over there, and these two little white faces are matched together, but they are a pair." The third brother said, "Shopkeeper, you are really a soft bone, and after seeing the gold, you would rather learn how to bark a dog yourself?" The bartender replied loudly, "Yes!" and ran to the backyard, "Ah Wang" was his nickname.

The third brother looked embarrassed, and forced a smile: "A poor scholar, where did you get the gold, you have to beware of fake." Chu Menglin snorted, and as soon as he raised his hand, the gold flew straight towards the shopkeeper, smashing his forehead, and immediately the blood flowed like a pour, but the gold hung in front of his eyes. Chu Menglin said: "See clearly, is this fake?"

The shopkeeper only had a golden reflection in his eyes, and said one after another: "It's not fake, it's not fake." He didn't even care about the wound on his head, and was anxious to catch the gold with both hands, Chu Menglin hooked his index finger, and the gold seemed to have become a living thing, turning around and flying back, and everyone was stunned. It turned out that she had threaded a thin thread in the middle in advance, and the other end was put between her fingers, and at this time she caught it neatly, couldn't stop throwing it with one hand, and said with a smile: "If you want the gold of the son, you haven't reached the fire yet." ”

The third brother said angrily: "That thief kid deceives people, it turns out that his martial arts are not bad! He dares to pretend to be a sour nerd to trick us!" Chu Menglin smiled and said: "Who lied to you? You have never seen a talent who is both civil and military?" The third brother said angrily: "Disciple of the Huangshan Sect, hoe the strong and help the weak, you dog robber fell into the hands of us and others, only you think you are unlucky." Chu Menglin said in her heart: "I'm unlucky enough, I don't need you to remind me, but I don't recognize it." The third brother roared, and with a move "Tiger out of the mountain", he pounced forward.

Chu Menglin spun her feet, got off the chair, first slapped at the third brother, and then swept with one foot, kicking off the stool leg. The third brother returned a punch, originally looking at the stool surface as the foothold, but who knew that there was nowhere to focus when he went down, and immediately stepped on the low stool, and half of his leg was stuck in it. Chu Menglin turned her palm into a blade, slashed at the third brother's carotid artery, slid his heel to the ground, slammed his vest with the tip of his elbow, and jumped onto the dining table. Seeing that the third brother was suffering, the two brothers sat back and ignored it, obviously losing the face of the disciples of Huangshan, regardless of where the enemy came from, and surrounded them from both sides.

Chu Menglin picked up a bowl of hot soup with her hand, drenched the big brother's face, took advantage of the opponent's distraction, grabbed his wrist, and kicked him in the armpit with his flying legs. The second brother grabbed her other foot and pulled at the edge of the table, trying to throw her off. Chu Menglin improvised and pulled the big brother sideways, using her arm as a support platform, reflexively flicking her legs, throwing the second brother out, colliding with the eldest brother, smashing the table with a "bang", and sawdust flying.

The shopkeeper shouted: "Bitter!" If you had taken a bowl of cheap herbal tea to pass the soup remotely, it would not have caused people to be upset, but now the loss of breaking the plates and cups is far more than that amount.

Tang Yuanyuan couldn't help persuading him: "A few heroes stop quickly, there is something to say, there is something to say, everyone walks the rivers and lakes, and peace is precious." Chu Menglin was willing to listen to him, and saw that the store was distressed, so he deliberately jumped up and down between the tables, picked up the cup and smashed it everywhere, and occasionally threw it all over the sky with a hidden weapon.

Tang Yuanyuan couldn't persuade Chu Menglin, so he turned to comfort the shopkeeper: "Uncle, the disaster started because of a small life, a thousand should not be, never be, complain that I should not be thirsty." How much they have smashed, I will pay for it at that time. The shopkeeper said: "Can you afford it?" Do you really believe that my forehead is so high, I can bump into the champion when I go out?" Tang said remotely: "I really can't take the test, I will pay it off if I smash the pot and sell iron...... He even sold himself into slavery and worked for you all his life to pay off his debts. ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Look at your fine skin and tender meat, can you do rough work and tiring work? Tang said remotely: "You see that I am so thin, and the amount of food is very small, so I won't cause trouble." This life is not over, the next life will become a cow and a horse, still looking for an uncle, and the life will be paid off, and there will always be a day when it will be paid off. ”

When the shopkeeper heard him say solemnly, he smiled bitterly and said, "Just because of this sinful debt, I will be tied to you for the rest of my life? The saucer is a cultural relic unearthed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the blue-background white-flower bowl is a tribute from Tubo in the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, Chu Menglin had already pointed out the acupoints of the three brothers, and stood in a column back to back, with the third brother in front, the second brother in the middle, and the eldest brother in the back. Her ears were not idle, it sounded absurd, and she said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you are honest on the surface, but you are actually a person who touches gold? Beware of me going to the county office to sue you." A trick "hidden needle" unexpectedly hit the eldest brother, and the eldest brother affected the first two, all of them flew out, and the store was hit by four forces and retreated to the corner of the cupboard, and the two heads of the first three brothers were touched, and both were broken. Chu Menglin's palm power was not very good at using it, and the yin energy cracked the spleen and lungs of the eldest brother and the second brother, and the third brother was half dead due to the distance, and he collided with the store before dying.

Chu Menglin jumped down, landed lightly, raised his left hand diagonally to pinch a sword trick, and held a strand of hair with his right hand, and slowly brushed it down, his movements were soothing. It's just that she was lucky, she happened to run into three useless enemies with poor martial arts in the first battle when she went out, and she would only look at the lively useless enemies. The fight was boiling with blood, and in a fit of smugness, Chong Tang beckoned from afar, and said, "Let's go fight the robbers and grab the burden on your behalf, why don't you lead the way quickly?"

Tang Yuanyuan said: "No, the robbers are also forced to make a living, so they will cut the grass and fall into the grass." If the world is simple, the night is not closed, the road is not forgotten, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. If it weren't for the lack of clothes and food, no one would be willing to become a bandit and be cut off from the world. The baggage...... Just do one good deed that day. Chu Menglin said disdainfully: "According to what you said, it makes sense to be a robber?"

Tang said remotely: "You can't say that. At the beginning of people, the nature is good, the sex is similar, the Xi is far away, and then the one who is close to Zhu is red, and the one who is close to the ink is black, the sound and harmony are clear, and the shape is straight. However, it must be able to guide carefully, and it will be able to achieve good results. Chu Menglin sneered: "I really don't know if you are a nerd, or a little monk who has returned to the vulgar, and you still pay attention to all sentient beings?"
