(Congratulations to the book friend "Bai/Xiaobai" for becoming the first disciple of the human god, it's not easy!Thank you for the reward of the book friend "myshum668", and thank the book friend "¥ Yusheng Yan$" for becoming an apprentice!)
The afterglow of the sunset enveloped Pengcheng County, and the smoke rose everywhere, creating a peaceful atmosphere.
In the backyard of Peng's house, Peng Qingcheng's fat body was lying on a recliner, and there were two concubines beside him who were pinching bones and beating their backs, enjoying it very much. Although his injuries have improved greatly, he is still unable to walk unaided and has to lie down most of the time.
"Lao Wu, I heard the second brother say that you are responsible for taking concubines and making happy things?"
Steward Wu hurriedly said, "Yes, young master." ”
"Well, how are things going? When will Ye Junmei pass the door?"
Steward Wu replied: "Tell the eldest young master, this is the case, because the Ye family does not agree, so the villain has asked the matchmaker to find another family." ”
"What?"
Peng Qingcheng's voice raised in vain, affecting the injury, his face turned pale with pain, but he couldn't care about it now, and almost roared: "What are you going to do?
Steward Wu hurriedly explained: "Eldest young master, it was the second young master who said that there is no need to look for the Ye family anymore. ”
"Hmph, the second brother is really, since he became an official, his hands and feet have become more and more restrained. The Ye family was just broken, and they dared to disagree. If he doesn't agree, he looks down on my Peng family and Young Master Ben. I can't swallow this breath no matter what. ”
Peng Qingcheng has always been arrogant, and he walked sideways in Pengcheng, so how could he have encountered any setbacks? Unexpectedly, he was attacked in a tea shop and almost died, but his younger brother actually said that he would not pursue the case and would not arrest the murderer. In this regard, he has long held his breath. Now that I heard that the Ye family is so ignorant of lifting, how can they still endure it? It is like a fuse, which is about to explode suddenly.
Steward Wu understood the temper of the eldest young master and did not dare to disobey, so he asked, "Young master, what should I do then?"
Although Peng Qingcheng was dumbfounded, he was not stupid, thought about it, and said, "You go and call Su Huyuan, I have something to say to him." ”
"Yes. ”
Steward Wu knew the methods of the eldest young master, and his heart sank: Now the girl of the Ye family is going to suffer, and the Su Nursing Yuan will take action and directly kidnap people. If the eldest young master likes it, he will make the overlord hard. At that time, no matter how chaste you are or how unwilling you are, it will be meat on the chopping board......
There have been several such cases.
After he walked a few steps outside, Peng Qingcheng suddenly shouted again: "Old Wu, don't call it, I'll talk about this later." ”
Steward Wu immediately stopped: "Obey." "The heart is bright, the eldest young master is in poor health right now, but it is not good to come nonsense, and he needs to take care of his body first.
......
The days have feet, and in November, the climate becomes deeper, and the cool gradually turns into a chill, and people need to wear thick clothes when they go out.
Ye Junsheng sat in the room, his hands in his sleeves, his expression a little gloomy.
Since he helped Duyun Temple copy the eighteen volumes of scriptures, he has never found a new livelihood, and his remuneration has long been used up. The current situation is back to the past, and I have to eat my sister's "soft rice" and rely on Ye Junmei to survive.
It's a taste, and it's really uncomfortable.
The more serious problem is still to come, the cold winter is approaching, but the family that spends the winter at home is pitiful. There were only two old cotton jackets that were sewn and mended, and the quilt was thin and covered on the body like a leaf.
It's not going to be a good winter......
I just hope that it is not too cold.
And after the winter, there was also trouble in the spring, and at that time, the boy's test was opened, but now Ye Junsheng only found a few neighbors' guarantees, and Xiucai's guarantee was gone.
The main thing is that there is no money to give gifts.
There are two talents in Pengcheng County, and Ye Junsheng has invited them, but the other party has shown an extremely cold attitude without exception.
Human affection is as thin as paper, let alone the human affection of the broken settlement?
If there is no affection, it must be made up for through "courtesy". According to the usual practice, it is difficult to ask a showman to vouch for it, and it is difficult to do it without half a penny.
Half a piece of money is five hundred wen, which is five taels of silver. For the current Ye family, it is undoubtedly a huge amount of money.
As the saying goes: "A penny is hard to beat a hero," but what about 500 yuan? I'm afraid that a generation of Tianjiao will have to lie on his stomach.
Of course, Ye Junsheng is not cornered. If you bow your head and beg the Jiang family, you should be able to borrow money to turn around. It's just that if you are in the world, if your head is too easy to bow down, I am afraid it will be difficult to raise it again in the future.
"Well, there will be a road before the chariot reaches the mountain, and I don't believe that people will die of hunger. ”
He got up, carried a rusty wood knife, pinned it to his waist, and strode out of the door, but he was going out of the city to chop wood.
In winter, you need charcoal fire to keep warm, if you have money, you can buy it directly, and if you don't have money, you can only do it yourself. In the Tianhua Dynasty, it was no problem to cut down some trees in the wild and use them as firewood.
At noon, Ye Junsheng had already arrived at a mountain range in the western suburbs of Pengcheng and began to get busy. Fortunately, his body and bones are far beyond before, otherwise he would not be able to bear it if he bends down a few more times.
For a long time, Ye Junsheng insisted on practicing "Yongzi Eight Swords" every day, and he benefited a lot. Not only have the "pen sword intent" and "horizontal pen sword intent" improved, but the improvement of physical quality is even more gratifying. You must know that the body is the capital and the foundation, if you don't get it right, don't talk about it in most aspects, just the little things in bed can't be satisfied, that's the tragedy in the world.
About half an hour later, a load of firewood was ready. Weighing the weight, it's almost. If you have more, you will exceed the load, and it will be more difficult to pick it back.
Just as he was about to descend the mountain, he suddenly heard a roar from the mountain, which was deafening.
Ye Junsheng's face changed greatly: It's a tiger, it's the roar of a tiger!
This world is different from the previous life, the typical land is vast and sparsely populated, and the wild resources are quite abundant, such as tigers and leopards and other fierce beasts in the suburbs and mountains, will be infested, once encountered, it is undoubtedly a disaster.
Although Ye Junsheng has a mysterious swordsmanship and can use tree branches as a sword, he has only attacked Peng Qingcheng, and the specific lethality power has never been clearly proven, and he is not very sure whether it can be used to deal with the tiger. And why risk your life if you don't have to?
"It's not good to stay here, let's go quickly. ”
Roar!
The second tiger roar came so quickly that it seemed to be not far away.
Oops, it's too late!
Ye Junsheng was in a hurry, threw the firewood aside, and climbed up the tree with a sigh. After a few moments, he hid in the middle of a pine tree, and then he settled down to look.
Roar!
The third tiger roared, and in the blink of an eye, a colorful tiger appeared. It's just that now, its body is drenched in blood, and two fist-sized wounds have been stabbed between its ribs by a sharp weapon, and it is seriously injured, but it is fleeing for its life.
This tiger is not here to hunt, but to run for its life.
Teng Teng!
A sturdy figure flew in behind, holding a six-foot red tassel gun, majestic. The spear suddenly stabbed out, hitting the tiger's neck, and a stream of blood sprayed out. The tiger screamed and fell to the ground, and immediately returned to the west.
The momentum of thunder, only one round, has a result.
Ye Junsheng on the tree couldn't take his eyes off it, and when he saw the tiger killer hero clearly, he almost exclaimed: How could it be her?
At the slightest movement, the other party immediately noticed it, looked up, and said coquettishly: "Who is hiding in a tree!"
"It's me. ”
Ye Junsheng's rather hateful face poked out from among the branches and leaves.
