Chapter 158: I suddenly heard the sound of the inn's lute

Chapter 158

Yuzhou, Jiading City, is at the junction of Jingzhou and Yuzhou. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At noon on this day, the sun was shining in the sky, on the main street of Jiading City, a man and a woman walked side by side, one carrying a sword, one holding a gun, although it was a little weird, but fortunately there were many people on the street, so it was not too conspicuous.

A man and a woman are naturally Bu Fan and Gu Yu, since the departure of Dahe Village, they have been walking east, fortunately, before leaving, Sun Fatzi gave 5,000 Xuanwu coins as a coil, and spent some money to buy two good horses, so it took less than ten days to rush from the westernmost part of Jingzhou near the desert to Yuzhou.

But what I didn't expect was that as soon as the two of them entered the city, they were targeted by someone not long ago, and as they were walking, Bu Fan suddenly frowned and whispered, "Someone is following us"

Gu Yu didn't look back, approached Bufan, and asked softly, "Solve them?"

Bu Fan shook his head, "The city is not like the suburbs, there are many people, so don't get into trouble, find an inn to live in first." ”

Gu Yu bowed his head and followed Bufan into an inn.

It was the hot season, and there were many people drinking in the inn, so Bu Fan found the most remote position and sat down. It didn't take long for three more people to enter from the door of the inn, all carrying long knives, and after the three of them glanced at the Bufan position, they lowered their heads and whispered a little before picking a table and sitting down.

The corners of Bufan's mouth hooked slightly, and he sneered, "I've been hiding for more than ten days, but I didn't expect to run into trouble as soon as I entered the city, I don't know what I fancy on us this time, but it's really perseverance."

Gu Yu asked, "What should I do?"

"Consume it, don't worry, it just so happened that I didn't have a good rest yesterday, I will live here today, and it just so happens that meditation has also been in some state these days" Bu Fan poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly.

And the busy shopkeeper finally arrived, first took off the rag on his shoulder and wiped the table a few more times, and then said with a sneer, "What are the two guest officers here?"

Bu Fan replied, "Two dishes of good dishes, and then a pot of good wine"

Without waiting for the shopkeeper to reply, Gu Yu immediately said with a gloomy face, "I drank so much wine in Dahe Village last time, and my cough improved after a few days, do you want to drink like that again this time?"

Bu Fan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his hand with a smile and said, "Listen to you, listen to you, then don't drink it, Xiao Er, you still help me serve a pot of tea."

Gu Yu changed his face and put the burden on the table.

"Haole" Xiao Er glanced at the two and retreated with recognition.

This inn has three floors like the Changhe Inn, but it covers a much larger area, and the first floor is a place to eat, with nearly 20 tables, because when it comes to the meal, the seats are almost full at this time.

While eating, no one noticed that two more people came in from the door of the inn, an old and a young, the girl was holding an old pipa, and led a blind old man who was also holding an erhu to the center of the first floor, which looked like it should be two grandchildren.

When the old man saw that the girl had stopped, he took off the erhu bow and began to play the strings in the crowd, and the girl on the side also began to sing while playing the pipa.

But the inn was at a time when the crowd was boiling, and the voices of the two were completely covered up by the sound of drinking, talking, and abuse.

But the girl still sang to herself, unaffected by the others......

But halfway through the song, a middle-aged man with a big belly walked out from the counter of the inn, who should be the innkeeper, and after seeing the grandfather and grandson, he immediately stepped forward and pointed at the two, as if he was abusive.

Where would the old man and the young master and grandson resist, driven by the innkeeper, they put away their musical instruments again, and the girl hugged the old man and slowly left, as if she had experienced this situation more than once.

Just as the grandfather and grandson were about to walk out of the door.

"I wonder if you two can sing a song to you," Bu Fan shouted with a voice.

The grandfather and grandson stopped, and the innkeeper saw this, and he didn't chase away, and after glancing at Bufan, he returned to the counter.

Although the old man was blind, his hearing was excellent, and when he heard the sound of Bufan, he immediately turned around and asked in disbelief, "Is the son talking to our grandfather and grandson?"

"Hmm" Bu Fan bowed.

The girl led the old man and slowly walked to Bufan, bent down and said, "I don't know which tune this son wants to hear?"

Bu Fan poured a cup of tea and handed it to the old man, shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, it's not too late to drink a cup of tea and sing."

"Childe Bodhisattva Heart" The old man took the teacup, drank half a cup, and replied with his chin bowed, "Childe is not a local, right?"

Bu Fan poured another cup of tea and handed it to the little girl, and replied "It's really not", and after the girl took the teacup a little shyly, Bu Fan asked again, "How old is it?"

The girl leaned closer to the old man, and replied with a red face, "Thirteen"

Bu Fan turned sideways and asked two questions in succession: "What about your parents? Who taught you to play the pipa?"

The girl doesn't seem to talk to outsiders often, and after listening to Bufan's words, she replied in a hesitant voice, "My parents have passed away a long time ago, and Xue Yi has been dependent on her grandfather since she was a child, and the skill of playing the pipa was also taught by her grandfather."

Bu Fan was about to take the tea, but he was stunned, looking at the girl's fingers that were not wearing copper plates and callouses, Bu Fan asked softly, "Then what kind of tunes do you know?"

The girl raised her head and looked at the old man, and after the latter nodded, the girl put up the pipa, buried her head in her chest and whispered, "Then Xueyi will give the gong a song of Guanglingsan"

With the head of the sail, the girl's little hand rested on the strings and slowly plucked the strings.

A reel, a winding string, the tune has not been out of love, the big string is noisy like a torrential rain, the small string is cut like a whisper, when the play is halfway, the old man also pulled up the erhu, the two tunes together like mountains and flowing water, straight to the heart.

Bu Fan closed his eyes, his hands were playing the piano and gently undulating on the table, and his consciousness seemed to be on top of the clouds.

After a while, the old man took the lead in retracting the bow, and then the girl stopped pressing the strings.

Bu Fan clapped his hands again and again, and then poured a cup of tea for the old and the young, before asking, "The accent of Mr. Ting's voice is different from that of other people in the inn, and he must not be a local, I don't know what his plans are in the future?"

The old man touched the girl's bun and sighed, "The old man is riddled with eye diseases, and he really can't do anything else, so he can only wander around all day long and sing for a living. ”

After listening to this, Bu Fan nodded to Gu Yu, just took a few coins from Gu Yu's hand, handed them to the girl and said, "This money will be used as the reward for your playing and singing just now, if you are free or have any trouble in the future, you might as well go to Beiping, my name is Bu Fan, and when the city guard asks my name, you should be able to find me." ”

The girl opened her mouth wide, shook her head again and again, and said, "A song doesn't cost so much money."

Bu Fan forced the money into the girl's hand and said with a smile, "I said it's worth it, you take it quickly, don't let others see it, so as not to cause trouble"

The girl hesitated, but in the end, Bu Fan personally stuffed the money into the girl's sleeve and comforted, "Take this money to buy some delicious food for your grandfather and you, if you have any difficulties, remember to go to Beiping to find me, my name is Bufan." ”

The girl nodded stiffly.

Bu Fan got up, touched the girl's head and said, "Remember my brother's words, my brother will leave first" After speaking, he got up and took Gu Yu to the direction of the counter.

After hearing the departing footsteps and walking away, the old man asked in a low voice, "How much money did that son give?"

The girl looked at Bu Fan's back and said, "One thousand Xuanwu coins"

The old man was stunned......
