The widest road in Chengping is in a north-south direction, paved with thick bluestone slabs, which can probably be used for three horses in parallel, and no stalls are allowed to be set up next to the road.

The sun is getting higher, the sun is shining, there are not a few people on the road, and occasionally there are naughty children walking through the streets and alleys, and they will be stopped by adults passing by in a hurry.

The Chengping Military Office goes directly to the Chengping Camp located in the south of the city through this road, which is naturally also a military road.

Yun Zhao kicked the grass clippings on the street, his hands stuck into the trouser belt on the back of his body and scratched his buttocks, Qin Yuan had taught him many times with deep hatred that this kind of vice was undesirable, and seeing that he had no intention of repenting, he left a few cruel words and stopped mentioning it.

The adults in the office were wounded, and one of them was dying... When they entered the city a few days ago and night, the leaders were holding knives, the tips of which were dripping with blood, and the soles of their boots were muddy and grassy. The woman in the middle wore a brocade hat, and there was something in her arms, and from the night they entered the city, people from outside the city began to flee and sit on both sides of the official road.

Yun Zhao smiled, stretched out his left hand in front of him and scratched it a few times in mid-emptiness. After the adults entered the city, there were more and more refugees outside the city, so he went out of the city to the Qianmu grassland.

There is no enthusiastic mare's milk tea in the ashes of the burned ruins, and I haven't seen the cute and stubborn horse bandits in the past few days running around the grassland, and the horseshoe prints in the muddy field of Dangweigou mean that they have fled to the west.

The front village of the Mutuo tribe has moved forward, which means that they are ready to start a war, and all the herdsmen's villages near Chengping on the grassland have been burned by the Mutuo people, and the clothes of those refugees outside the city prove that they are herdsmen.

Listening to Dong Sihe, the distressed herdsmen outside the city refused to enter the city, and several of the leaders kept roaring with pale faces, and it took a long time to understand that the fire was coming, and the city gate and city wall were inconvenient to escape.

The parcels on horseback were all picked up on the way home, all of them were bloody, and most of them were from the herdsmen who starved to death halfway through.

The crazy Mutuo people kept burning down the herdsmen in search of something, no doubt, in the body of the adults in the office.

...

Yun Zhao led the horse into the Chengping camp, in order to defend against the raid of the rogues, the fence of the camp was fixed obliquely, digging a gun ditch, and setting up a horse rejection. The weapons were scattered against the windbreak, and there were not many people in the camp at noon, and after facing a few sentrymen, they walked straight to a row of military houses.

He unloaded the package and patted the horse's buttocks, who ran to the stables in a joyous manner. took off his sweat-stained shirt, rubbed his body happily with the well water he had just hit, shook off the drops of water on his hair, threw his clothes in the house, and jumped on the bed like this, comfortably.

Every bone seemed to be moaning, humming comfortably a few times, dragging the bamboo pillow, and Yun Zhao, who had not closed his eyes for a few days, fell into a deep sleep.

Sixteen years ago, Chengping had a rare rainstorm for many years, according to Chu Bafang's words, it was the time when God opened the plug and poured urine, and it would be good to live, so he didn't pay attention to any drainage measures.

That afternoon, the soldiers and civilians of the whole city were busy scooping water outside their homes, Chu Fat Man pulled his trouser legs, buried his head in the basin and splashed water, standing on the threshold when he was busy working, a bamboo basket floated by the water outside the door canal.

For the first time in his life, Chu Bafang felt that God had made a big joke on him, why was there a pink doll carved in the bamboo basket, and the little chubby face on the side of the basket was grinning at himself, and his little hands were waving vigorously.

It wasn't until the bamboo basket floated out of sight that Chu Bafang came to his senses, spread his feet and chased after him. According to Old Man Qin, he and Chu Tou'er have worked together for decades, and it is the first time he knows that this fat man can run so fast. I chased the whole alley, from the west of the city to the east of the city, and caught the bamboo basket before it was washed out of the city canal by the water.

Chu Bafang drank too much afterwards, and would always catch people and chatter: "Lao Tzu chased half of that day, and he couldn't run, so the kid was pulling the bamboo basket in front of him, and beckoned to Lao Tzu, and his little eyes were spinning and turning, and he was happy like something, but cheering me on, and now this under-beating appearance is carved..."

That day, Chu Bafang picked up the bamboo basket and took the doll out, one big and one small looked at each other and smirked, the doll was not afraid of his vicious fat face when he laughed, and the two snow-white little fat hands were so happy that they couldn't stop patting... There is a piece of jade hanging from the neck, and a totemic-style emblem is engraved on the front, which is full of luxury and style, and two words are engraved on the reverse, Yunzhao.

...

"Yun Zhao, Yun Zhao, wake up!"

"Poof" straightened up, reached into the neckline and touched the jade, Yun Zhao, who woke up, breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyes and looked at the door, the sky was already dark, Dong Sihe, who was nervous and a little excited, led a group of people to look at the house with a pestle on the threshold, sweat on his forehead, probably running all the way from the office.

"Hey, Zhaoye, the time has come, collect your fat!" shouted a man in a short shirt who was looking around, stretching his neck.

"Walk, close your fat!" with a wave of his big hand, he jumped up from the bed, grabbed his clothes and walked out the door. There was a cheer at the door of the military house, and several men danced and hugged Yun Zhao towards the city, and the group put their hands on their mouths from time to time to let out a few wolf howls.

"Whew... Chengping cubs, Zhao Ye is here!" resounded through the streets and alleys.

...

The shops along the street in the north of the city are counted on the side of the flat wall, and the sixth room is the Fugui Fang, the name is taken from the atmosphere, but it is actually just an inconspicuous broken earth yard, and the door is hung with a thick cotton cloth stained with oil as a curtain.

The group stood in front of the door curtain, and the first person who was sticking to the dirty curtain took a hard breath, rubbed his face, opened the door curtain, and walked in.

"Zhao... Zhao Zhao puppy, hurry up, but wait for you, hahahaha!" A poor sour scholar looked like a direct stop in front of the group, the courtyard behind him was brightly lit, and the shouting and scolding of the orders were endless, Yun Zhao looked at the poor sour scholar in front of him, and pushed it away impatiently.

"Li Huaide, if you want to make a fortune, don't get in the way!"

The poor scholar smiled with a smile on his face, nodded indifferently and said yes, bowed and walked around behind Yun Zhao and his party.

walked to the innermost table, squeezed away a few people sitting around, and finally got out of the crowd, and opened his mouth to say: "Ladies and gentlemen, what are you playing, I don't know how to do it, take me one." ”

Hearing this, they all raised their eyebrows, and the corners of their mouths were hooked in arcs, and they all looked back at the source of the sound with interest, and when they saw Yun Zhao's smiling face, they were all angry, and several of them shouted angrily: "Yun Zhao, I'll put your lungs on top, and I'll put this calf on hold as soon as I come back!"

Li Huaide and the others finally followed Yun Zhao's side, quickly straightened their waists and began to show off their might and shout.

"Come one, come one, there is no one who can fight with Zhao Ye!"

When I heard the word Yun Zhao in Fuguifang, I smelled the meat like a wolf, and the stalls at the adjacent table stopped playing, so I rushed to the inner table, and cried wolf howls with a ghost in my throat while running: "Lao Tzu pressed Yun Zhao, don't grab the plate with me." ”

Yun Zhao smiled warmly, bowed his hand to the crowd around him, and sat down in a chair. Seeing that the situation was not good, the original person on the table took the silver on the table in his arms and slipped away, leaving only one on the corner of the table with half of his body covered in the shadows and did not move.

"Come on, it's just the two of us, how do you want to play this time. A deep voice came from the corner, and a sallow and thin face with a few taels of flesh appeared from the shadows, the man curled up on the bamboo chair with one leg, his left hand gently rubbed the emerald green wrench on his right hand, and he pulled his body diagonally, tilting his head to look at Yun Zhao, a pair of dead fish eyes, and his face was expressionless.

Yun Zhao smiled and looked at each other as if he were Maitreya Buddha: "Cai Ya Su, the old rules." ”

The crowd of onlookers around him gasped in unison, and Li Huaide clenched his fists fiercely in the crowd, his temples tightened.

Caiya Su, the king of the eight calves, pressed me when he was a child, and he looked like a dead man, this time you let you eat all of my spit out, Li Huaide thought of this, ripped off the money bag sewn on his waist, squeezed through the crowd and threw it on the table, "I press the puppy!"

...

The table was littered with money bags of all kinds and broken silver.

Yun Zhao rubbed his face, the previous playful expression disappeared, and when he reappeared, his expression was like that of a devout pilgrim of the Divine Court. Ten fingers clamped the table like a hook, his nose began to sniff non-stop, and from time to time his nose let out a low barking sound, staring at Cai Yasu very intently, the latter's face became more and more gloomy, and the number of times he rubbed his fingers began to increase.

Everyone was solemn and solemn, and only the sound of rubbing between the sleeves of clothes remained in the courtyard, as if it was deciding the life and death verdict of everyone. The two of them slowly straightened up and climbed onto the table, drove forward and stretched out their right fists to the middle of the table, and the two fists slowly touched each other.

Two terrible howls ignited the atmosphere of the audience, and the coaxing was filled with cheers.

"A dragon!" "Hello brothers!" Caiya Su slapped the table heavily and attacked first.

"Three-star photo!" and "Four Seasons Wealth!" the speed of the two of them suddenly increased.

...

Caiya Su swelled the green tendons at the corners of his forehead, and his face was distorted and shouted: "Five heads, feed!"

Yun Zhao was indifferent, and sighed lightly: "Six six wow!"

...

"Eight horses!" Caiya Su's eyes cracked.

"Nine Heavens!" Yun Zhao waved his hand.

......

"This fat has to be fattened and killed. Yun Zhao sighed.

A handful of moonlight sprinkled on the fence of the Chengbei camp, reflecting the reflection of the weeds swaying with the night breeze not far from the camp, and the starlight reflected on the rancid silt in the ditch at the end of the canal.

Yun Zhao threw an emerald green wrench up and down, shrugged his shoulders and hummed a small tune, carrying a sauce roast chicken from the old Lu family in the north of the city, and slowly moved towards the military house, listening to the drunken laughter not far behind him, and Dong Sihe's famous loud voice howling the princes to drink victory, and shook his head with a smile.

Walking to the door of the house, he saw the bright lights in the house through the paper window that had been blown by the wind and sand, sighed lightly, and pushed the door open.
