Chapter 9 Departure
Long Gongzi was also full of emotion in his heart at this time, the third uncle also left, and he didn't remember the way back, this time he was really going to be alone on the rivers and lakes.
For Long Gongzi, he is a young man who has not been deeply involved in the world, although he himself does not think so.
After tidying up in the room for a while, I plan to leave immediately. This is the first time he has gone to the rivers and lakes, and he is alone. The main thing is that there is not much money on the body. Usually he has been in the mountains, with the care of the third uncle and everyone, and someone will take him out to breathe when he goes down the mountain, and he will hardly go far.
Even so, this time I can only rely on myself. Although Long Gongzi was a little nervous in his heart, a little overwhelmed, and even a little scared. But it's more about excitement, anticipation, and the desire to start your journey right away. There is no cowardice at all.
"But where is this aimless going?"
After a fierce mental struggle, Long Gongzi walked out of the room with his baggage on his back. My stomach was already rumbling with hunger.
"Let's go get something to eat first, it's almost noon. ”
Walk downstairs and find an empty table and sit down.
"Little Er, let's have a roast chicken and a plate of peanuts. "I didn't even think about it, so I ordered a roast chicken. Just commemorate walking the rivers and lakes and practice it for yourself.
"Okay, wait, officer. ”
After a while, Xiao Er brought a roast chicken, and the dragon bow drooled when he saw it. Eat without saying a word. And peanuts, the one that eats is called a cool.
Even those who gnaw and chop don't care about what Sven is. With the wind and clouds, the gobbling momentum will destroy this roast chicken in minutes. After eating, I touched my stomach. And a full burp.
"Xiao Er, how much money is it for roast chicken. Long Gongzi looked satisfied.
"Guest officer, it's a tael of silver. Xiao Er said with a smile.
"What. A tael of silver. It's so expensive. ”
"yes, if I'm not mistaken. The guest officer only ate in the store yesterday, so he doesn't know the price. ”
Long Gongzi was so depressed in his heart. Touched his head
"Uncle Rob paid for it yesterday, and I really didn't know that this roast chicken cost a tael or two. I've got a tael of silver all over my body."
smiled awkwardly at Xiao Er, and his inner world had already complained about his unscrupulous third uncle. However, what can be done, I have to be cross-minded. gave the last two taels of silver on his body to Xiao Er.
"Hey, thank you, officer. After Xiao Er got the money, he politely said a word and turned around and left with satisfaction. Leave the messy dragon bow
"It's good now. Not a penny left. What can I do? I can't afford to eat. Alas. I don't believe that my dragon bow came out to walk the rivers and lakes, and he would starve to death. Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. ”
As he spoke, Long Gongzi came to the stable with his burden on his back and looked at the horses grazing. Walk up. Patted the horse's back.
"On the Jianghu Road, you are the only one with me. After eating for a while, you're on your way. "This is the first time that Long Gongzi thinks that horses are also very cute animals.
After a few minutes, the dragon bow was leading the horse forward. Silently walked out of Xueting Town. Walking to the south of Xueting Town, as far as the eye can see, three forks in the road appear in front of you
"Which way to go? I don't know where these roads lead. Forget it, even if I knew, I hadn't been there anyway. Hmm! hesitated. Just go straight and forget it. ”
As he spoke, he stepped on the horse with one foot and kicked his legs hard.
"Let's go"
As soon as the horse barked, it began to gallop down the road, and in the blink of an eye it disappeared into the footage of the road.
Not long after Long Gongzi left, a young couple left and wanted to get out of Xueting Town.
"Xianggong, I'm not mistaken, the young man just walked to the middle road. The woman looked stunned.
"Well, it seems to be. That seems to be a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy!" The man also looked a little suspicious that he had seen it wrong
"Doesn't he know that this road to Qiaoyin County, although Lu Chen is the shortest, but there are those terrible bandits on the road? The woman had a worried look on her face at this time.
"Don't worry, ma'am. Those who dare to take this path are either fools or masters. Look at that young man's temperament will not be a fool, it should be the first son of which gate faction, and his martial arts are very strong, don't worry. ”
"Alas. I hope so. The woman sighed. "Husband, let's hit the road. ”
As he spoke, he walked with the man to the road on the left.
At this time, the dragon bow was running on the road. He enjoyed the feeling of galloping, riding on his horse and bathing in the wind. He had no idea what danger awaited him.
There are three roads before the town of Snow Pavilion. They are all roads to Qiaoyin County. The road on the left, although the road is the longest, is wide, and there are many people walking, so it is safe. The road on the right is shorter than the road on the left, but it is not easy to walk. And there are often wild beasts.
The road in the middle is the shortest, and the road is easy to walk. But no one dared to go down this path.
In this road, there are bandits who terrify the people of Xueting Town. Dulong Village, it is said that the people of Dulong Village killed people and set fires, did all kinds of evil, and lost their conscience. Eat raw meat and drink human blood. And all the bandits are fierce and vicious, and their strength is high. If you are caught, you will never survive, so there is a saying.
"It's better to meet a jackal than a lone dragon. ”
In fact, the people in Dulongzhai are also very depressed, and they usually just do things like robberies. And in order to make a living, it is not to hurt people's lives. If they knew that their voices were like that, they would probably vomit blood one by one.
Interior of Dulong Village.
"Boss, what can I do, the brothers haven't eaten big meat for several meals, and if they don't grab a few more orders, I'm afraid the brothers will starve to death in Dulong Village." ”
In the hall of Dulong Village, a group of people were discussing something. This is a man with a scarred face, and this sentence caused a commotion among the underground brothers.
"Brothers, don't worry, wait a little longer, if we come to business this time, we must let go of whatever we say, and we must break through the bottom line and ask for a lot of money. The leader touched his chin and said in a deep voice.
"Really," everyone had a look of anticipation on their faces, their bosses were usually very principled in robbing, and they were merciful to their subordinates every time, so what they often grabbed was not enough to eat, and finally waited for the boss to speak, just waiting for the big fish to take the bait.
"When the second child comes back from Qiao Yin, we will have a good meal to celebrate, as long as we survive these few days. A large sum of money is enough for the brothers to eat and drink hard. "This time it's really the way to go. Because of his own principles, the bandits who were originally good were regarded as good people. The brothers follow themselves in this way, and they must not let them not have enough to eat, which will inevitably make people feel cold. So this time I decided to put everything aside, rob a good sum of money, and slow down the livelihood of dozens of people in Dulongzhai.
"Okay, boss, listen to you. Don't be soft this time. The second master brought out all the savings of Dulongzhai this time, and if it is not opened, we are estimated to eat soil. ”
At this time, Lin Ba, the owner of Dulong Village, was bitter.
Dulongzhai is now poor and crazy, and his second brother still takes the only small amount of family money to go to Qiao Yin in exchange for food. It's been almost a month since I grabbed a penny. With the strength of Dulongzhai, you can only rely on people to rob some ordinary people, but ordinary people have long been frightened when they hear the name of Dulongzhai by mistake, how dare they pass here, if they meet a master, go here, not to mention robbing, they can't beat it.
Just like early yesterday morning, I received an urgent report from the little brother who explored the wind, and someone was walking here, looking quite rich, probably trying to take advantage of the fact that we might still be sleeping, and wanted to get by. Lin Ba, who heard this, was excited, and brought his brothers more than 20 people to take the guy and start working, waiting for that person to come over. I was getting ready to go up
"I opened this road, I planted this tree, if you want to ————"
Before he could finish speaking, the man rushed up, and in a few minutes, more than twenty people were lying on the ground.
Although the man didn't really do it, it also made their group suffer a lot.
I also said a word when I left
"There's a tree in that here. ”
Lin Ba has the heart to die, what is this called, sitting in the seat at this time with a sad face.
Suddenly, a little brother rushed in, panting.
"Report, report the old, boss. ”
"If you have something to say, you can finish it in one breath. Lin Ba said angrily.
This little brother gasped for a while, and said excitedly under the truth,
"Boss, according to the report of the spies ahead, there is a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old, who is riding a horse to this side. ”
Lin Ba, who listened to this, suddenly got up from his chair. His face gradually showed joy. Pointing to the lower road
"It's true"
"It's true, it's still a child. He was the only one riding a horse. It seems that like that kind of child who is not deeply involved in the world, it is estimated that he does not know the name of our Dulong Village. The boy was quite rich, and the horse looked like a good horse. It is estimated that the horse is worth a lot of money. ”
"Really? That's great. "Lin Ba is already a little impatient.
"Okay, okay," Lin Ba's eyes were excited at this time. But then I thought about it.
"Could it be that some disciple of the Great Gate Sect came out to practice? Don't steal chickens and rice in the future, and make people in other sects come to us for trouble, then it will be bad. ”
When that subordinate heard Lin Ba's words, he seemed to have some truth. But after thinking about the current predicament of Dulong Village, I can only gamble.
"Big brother, if you want me to look at him, he shouldn't be a member of that kind of sect, he is probably just a child of a rich family. Besides, a little hairy child, where is the martial arts high, so many of us are still afraid that he will not succeed. ”
"Well, I'll listen to you, brothers. This time, let's make a big deal," Lin Ba said and took the lead and rushed out.
