Chapter 51: Feng Qiwu

Three years in Southern Chu, Gusu City, heavy snow. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The white walls and tiles, pavilions, and stone bridges and moss are dyed white, leaving only the high and upturned eaves, which smears a non-monotonous color in the sky. Gusu is a prosperous city, the silence of the snow can hardly hide the hustle and bustle of the market, Wu Nong in the old streets and alleys speaks softly to the parents, and the teahouses and wine shops on the riverside street talk about the hero's shortness of breath and the love of children is long.

A wine shop is approaching the pier, and a song and a commentary make the boat lady moored on the wharf canopy stupid. She was cooking, and smoke from the mud stove ran out of the cabin from the roof of the canopy.

She was awakened by the sound of a rocking oar, and she poked her head out to see a boat break through the snow and row across the small bridge toward the pier.

There is a solid wooden coffin on the ship, which is slightly higher than the ordinary coffin, slightly wider, not long, the coffin is bamboo-blue, and the coffin lid is not neatly covered.

The boat lady was stunned for a while, and the king of Shuobei Yangwei Hanguguan forgot to listen to it.

There were two people standing on the boat, swaying in robes and hats. At the bow of the boat stood a man in gray clothes, with thin cheeks and a body like a bamboo pole, holding an oil-paper umbrella, waving his sleeves from time to time to brush away the snow on the coffin.

The rowing boat passed by the boat's canopy and landed firmly on the pier. The man in gray turned around and walked a few steps, bent down and put his right hand on the left side of the coffin, and held up the entire coffin. The man jumped lightly and landed on the dock with the coffin, and the coffin, which was unevenly stressed, was also stable and did not tremble at all.

The rowing boat fastened up, followed the man ashore, and walked towards the wine shop opposite, leaving only the stunned boat lady to watch the rocking boat gradually covered with snow.

The commentaries in the wine shop also stopped, and the people who were listening to the little songs with the open windows watching the snow scene stared at the gray-clothed man and the man in the cloth downstairs and walked into the wine shop.

The coffin was gloomy, and the shopkeeper stepped forward with a difficult face, but was stopped by the man in the cloth. Without saying much, the man in the cloth still had the money in the small second-hand, lifted the scimitar on his waist, and said, "Little Er, an elegant room." “

"Okay, two guest officers, please inside. “

Jianghu people kill people without blinking, and they can't be provoked. Xiao Er saw that the copper coin in his hand was enough, so he answered, led the way in front, and led the two to the second floor.

Wherever the man passed, the drinkers avoided it one after another, but when they saw that the coffin was Nanmu, estimated to weigh seven or eight hundred catties, the man walked steadily, his expression was as usual, and he knew that he was not an ordinary person, and he did not dare to complain for a while. When he went to the private room, the man in the cloth leaned on the saber, took off the hat of the cloth, revealed a childish face, and said: "Little Er, quickly take wine to warm up your body, and then cut five or six catties of cooked beef to drink." ”

"Wait. ”

Xiao Er answered, and was about to go downstairs, but was stopped by the man again. The man just put down the coffin carefully, turned back to the young man and said, "Xiao Jiu, you have taken the old ginseng in your bag, go to the kitchen with the second brother, and fry the soup for your master." “

"Yes. ”

When Xiao Jiu went out to the Medicine King Valley, the old ginseng handed over by Abel took the decoction casserole and went with Xiao Er.

The man pushed the lid of the coffin open, his expression was serene, his eyes were slightly closed, and the woman with the usual face slowly appeared in front of him. He covered the brocade quilt on the woman's body to prevent the cold wind from getting in, and when he stopped it, he saw a trace of silver hair coming out of the bun, picked it gently, sighed, and said in a low voice: "Ya'er, we should wake up after sleeping for so long, otherwise we will be old." ”

He gently rubbed the woman's cheeks, eyebrows, and bridge of the nose, and said softly: "As soon as you sleep until you have a white head, this feels not very good, you will definitely not like it, and you will complain about why I didn't wake you up." “

"I remember the corners of your mouth curled up when you complained. “

A sweet smile appeared on the man's thin face......

Yaowang Valley has very strict requirements for the method of decoction, and divides the decoction water into rainwater, Ganlan water, etc., and thinks that the decoction is reckless, the water and fire are poor, and the heat is out of moderation, so the medicine is useless. Although Xiao Jiu worships under the Fengqi Wu Gate, the rules of the Medicine King Valley have long been engraved in his bones, and he is respectful to the decoction, and he does not dare to be sloppy in the slightest.

Seeing that the wine shop only had well water, Xiao Jiu borrowed a bucket, walked out of the wine shop, walked through the deep alley, and took mountain spring water in a garden.

When Xiao Jiu hurriedly turned back to the deep alley, they heard a rush of footsteps behind each other, and when they turned around, they saw a man dressed as a ranger pulling a woman in green clothes and running towards him in embarrassment.

When Xiao Jiu first entered the rivers and lakes, he was wondering, thinking that he had seen the elopement drama that Su Geer often said. Oh, I saw a group of soap-clothed walkers flashing out of the street corner, chasing after them with knives in their hands, and they knew that they were being chased and killed. Xiao Jiu hurriedly dodged away, so as not to hinder this chase and kill drama.

After the ranger pulled the woman past Xiao Jiu, he suddenly stood still, turned around, and asked loudly, "Are you from the Medicine King Valley?"

Xiao Jiu lowered his head, he really didn't know how the other party would recognize him in this dress, and when he looked up again, he saw that the walker who had caught up also stopped when he heard the words.

"You're really from the Medicine King Valley!" Ranger himself was shocked.

"Yes. Xiao Jiudao, who was stunned: "How is it?"

"It's an old father. Ranger exclaimed, "The people of the Medicine King Valley really smell a smell of medicine, and they always call Hua Zicheng not to deceive me, and you can really find the people of the Medicine King Valley here, and the true value given by a chicken." ”

The group of walkers saw that Xiao Jiu was just one person, and after being a little surprised, they chased after him again.

The ranger hurriedly covered the woman behind him, slowly retreated, and did not forget to ridicule the walker, and said, "Ha, the people of the Medicine King Valley are here, and your master's conspiracy will be revealed soon." ”

"Humph!"

One of the walkers had a string of one hundred and eight human parietal bones hanging around his neck, and he glanced at Xiao Jiu and said, "What does the Medicine King Valley have to do with this matter? ”

Ranger turned his head to Xiao Jiu and said, "Shuobei ......"

As soon as he said the word, a dart struck, and the ranger hurriedly dodged it, and was about to say it again, when Toutuo had already taken the lead in slashing over with a knife.

"Run!"

Ranger asked Xiao Jiu if he was from the Medicine King Valley before, but he just dragged the time to let the woman rest, and felt that Xiao Jiu's body had a strong fragrance of medicine, carrying a bucket, walking hurriedly, and calmly, so he asked this question, but he didn't really put the back road on Xiao Jiu. At this time, seeing Toutuo make a move, he grabbed the woman's waist with his left arm, kicked his right foot on the ground, jumped two feet away, and avoided it far away.

The ranger's light skills are obviously good, and it's no wonder that they haven't been succeeded by this group of walkers.

Toutuo's knife missed, shouted angrily, and was about to pursue, but the ring knife in his hand flashed a silver light in the air, and turned to slash at Xiao Jiu on the side.

Unexpectedly, when Ranger said the word "Shuobei", Xiao Jiu had already made up his mind to make a move. Before the head of the knife made him old, Xiao Jiu's whole body had already fallen towards him.

Xiao Jiu first turned sideways to avoid Toutuo's sneak attack, his left elbow against the opponent's right lower ribs, so that Toutuo stumbled, Xiao Jiu took the opportunity to palm like a knife, cut the opponent's tiger's mouth, and took advantage of Toutuo's pain to snatch the ring knife. After Xiao Jiu grabbed the knife, he slashed it with his hand, forcing the walker who was about to rush over to pursue back, jumped up, and held the bucket in front of the ranger and the woman, and said, "Breaking ground on your ninth master's head, I'm impatient." ”

"Boy, we have a grudge with him in Shuobei, it's better for you to be nosy. ”

"Yo Yo Yo, it's just a four-inch Dinggu bark Jia Nan's subordinates, and it's still pretending. Xiao Jiu stayed with Brother Su for a long time, and he spoke with a taste of him, and said arrogantly.
