Chapter 276: Banner (7)
The two continued to move forward, and there would be no inn in the mountains, but fortunately, neither of them was tired, but when they were rushing, it suddenly began to drizzle, and Yang Zhen secretly shouted: "This is okay!"
The rain was not too big at the beginning, but in less than a moment, the pouring momentum came suddenly, and the two had nowhere to shelter from the rain, only to move forward, and the horse could not run fast, if it were not for the two of them to catch up, the foot would be even slower.
After a while, it was really impossible to hurry, Yang Zhen said: "We must stop and find a place to shelter from the rain." "But it's easy to say, where are the residents of this barren mountain and wilderness? I didn't feel that I looked around, but I saw that there seemed to be a house not far away, and I was secretly happy in my heart, Suo Ling fell off the horse again, and the two of them stumbled, only to get to the door, and saw that the plaque at the door said "Jinyu Nunnery" with three small characters, which turned out to be a nunnery. It's neat and clean, and it doesn't look like it's deserted.
Yang Zhen stepped forward and called the door: "Open the door!"
After a long while, someone came out inside, an old nun opened the door, Yang Zhen bowed his hand and said: "Thank you, Mrs., my brother and sister traveled here, and it rained heavily, and it was not a coincidence, I want to borrow a treasure land to stay overnight, can I be noncommittal?"
The nun looked at her coldly, not angry or happy, she couldn't see what her expression was, she stared at the two of them for a long time, her eyes were shining, and she said coldly: "Women can come in, but men can't." ”
Yang Zhen said excitedly: "How can that happen? Do you want me to drench outside all night? Just give me a quilt, I sleep outside the porch, it's the same, no more......"
The nun snapped and closed the door. Yang Zhen had never seen such a short-tempered nun, and scolded: "Fucking stinky nun, Lao Tzu doesn't say that he is unlucky, and he still thinks he is the queen mother!" and knocked loudly on the door.
After a while, the door was opened again, and the old nun, with a face like frost, said in a muffled voice, "Come in or not?" ”
Qing Ning stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master, be considerate, it's raining so heavily outside, let's hide all night, and leave tomorrow when the rain stops." ”
The nun said, "The rain won't stop tomorrow!" and after saying this, she closed the door again.
Both of them were very angry, Yang Zhen put out his palms together, and immediately knocked down the door, and scolded angrily: "Your grandmother's, the monks are so angry, did they eat gunpowder?"
When the old nun saw this scene, she was not afraid, not sad or happy, standing aside, sneering slightly, Yang Zhen raised her palm, she did not dodge, Yang Zhen was stunned in her heart: "Could it be that this nun has some real skills?" ”
As he spoke, he rushed in, and saw a faint fire in a room, so he rushed over, opened the door and looked, but saw that a firewood was burning vigorously, and there was a futon next to it, Yang Zhen said secretly: "This old nun guards this dilapidated nunnery alone, and has a withdrawn personality, maybe she has been bullied by that group of bandits, so she speaks coldly." He nodded and said, "When I see the old nun later, I will say that the bandit has been killed by me, and she will be relieved." ”
But after a long time, I didn't see the old nun coming, Yang Zhen put twenty taels of silver under the futon, thinking that after leaving tomorrow, the old nun would definitely regret doing this to them today when she saw the silver.
The two of them approached the fire and warmed up their bodies, and Qing Ning took out a wooden comb out of nowhere and combed it back and forth in her hair. Yang Zhen smiled: "You girls are really interesting, you don't take anything with you when you go out, but you don't forget to bring these messy things." ”
Qing Ning grinned and said, "You bring a lot of things, but you don't have this wooden comb, no, the heavy rain has drenched you, how do you comb your hair?"
Yang Zhen shook his head and said, "If you get wet, you get wet, I don't comb my hair!"
Qing Ning said: "No wonder you look ugly. Yang Zhen laughed.
The two of them were by the fire and slowly fell asleep. I don't know how long I slept, Yang Zhen's ears were sensitive, and he heard someone outside talking: "Ah, this is a ruined temple, I think it's been abandoned for a long time, let's just stay here for one night tonight." ”
Suddenly, another woman said, "This nunnery is so small and broken, how can it live in people?"
Another man's voice said, "Okay, okay, Ping'er, let's rest here for a while, tomorrow when the rain is light, let's go." The woman snorted softly.
Yang Zhen listened carefully, and hurriedly woke up Qing Ning, Qing Ning was dazed, opened her eyes, and didn't know what was going on, but she heard a woman outside say: "There seems to be someone in the house, let's go over and take a look." ”
Yang Zhen pinched the back of Qing Ning's hand with his hand, Qing Ning was about to cry out in pain, Yang Zhen said: "Listen to me, someone will come in later, no matter what, don't say that you are with me, you just say that you came by yourself, remember! Remember!" Without waiting for Qing Ning to answer, Yang Zhen jumped forward, and there was no one anymore. Qing Ning was stunned and stunned.
The door "squeaked", was opened, Qingning's eyes were hazy, only then did she sober up a little, and saw five people, one of them was a woman, with flowers and branches, her body was charming, and the heavy rain drenched her, and under the firelight, she could faintly see the woman's skin.
The woman first exclaimed, "Ah, there really is someone, trouble girl, you give up a little place, let us have a few fires." ”
Qing Ning was unhappy in her heart: "Why should I give up my position?" But then I thought about it: "Why is Yang Zhen also afraid of them?" Are these people even higher in martial arts than Yang Zhen?"
When the woman saw her get up, she stepped forward and took the only futon, still a little dissatisfied, and pouted, "Such a broken thing!"
The older man said, "That's good......! The appearance at home, out of the house, everywhere has to be a little more compromised. Still dissatisfied, the woman muttered, "I don't want to settle for anything." ”
The older man came over and bowed to Qing Ning and said, "Thank you, woman! ”
Qing Ning suddenly had a good impression of him, and said with a smile in her heart: "It turns out that I am also a heroine." It seems that others look at me like a person who is a fool!" I don't complain anymore, anyway, my body has already been roasted and dried up, so it's okay to let it out, and lean back a little.
The five of them surrounded the fire, but the woman occupied a large area, Suo Ling frowned and said, "This woman is so domineering!" Seeing that she spread out her clothes, she still frowned, and said: "When is it not good to go out, but at this time, the weather is so cold, it is uncomfortable to die." ”
The older man kept speaking of comfort, but the woman was still not satisfied. The other three men were in a trance, but they didn't dare to look at the woman head-on, and sometimes the three of them looked at each other, and after a touch, they hurriedly lowered their heads, their eyes were erratic, as if they were all on their minds.
The woman said: "Yang Youyuan, you are always afraid of three and four, afraid of this and that, is it possible that I am afraid? You dare not ...... to Liu Tang" The older man glared at him and glanced at her, the woman's eyes glanced at Qing Ning, and she said indifferently: "Okay, okay, don't mention it, don't mention it, don't mention anything, then I'll ask you one last time today, if you see the boss, don't you say anything about my family? My family of nineteen people died for no reason? There is no explanation at all, isn't it?"
The older man frowned and sighed, and picked up the words, it seemed that his name was Yang Youyuan, and he said, "We have talked many times, and you still come to ask me, ...... You...... What's the matter, let's just say at home, what are you doing again?" Although Yang Youyuan had already spoken with three points of blame, his tone was soft, far less severe than that of the woman.
The woman said sharply: "At home? You said at home? I asked you at home not a hundred times, but also ninety times, you said again and again that you will talk about it later! Later, we will talk about it later! This time we are going to Liucheng, what, is it just that we can't ask? They have a good relationship and call them brothers, so what? Are you ...... How many years have you been working in it? Anyway, which branch has you enough qualifications? You didn't do anything, but you were made the altar master by an outcast, is there any shame?"
Yang Youyuan suddenly stood up and shouted, "Have you said enough!"
The woman immediately retorted, "No! What do you want?"
Yang Youyuan's face was flushed, like a bone in his throat, but he swallowed it again, sat on the ground, and said, "What can I do......? Alas......"
The woman still didn't give up, and said, "Is this my fault?"
At this time, the man on the other side of the woman also comforted: "Mrs. Yang, you don't have to make a big move, let's go to Liucheng this time, then we are also ordered to go, saying that there is something very important to announce, otherwise Hall Master Yang will not be in such a hurry, if you are not free this time, then it will not be a problem, right?"
Bai Ping said: "What's the important matter?" Yang Youyuan, let me ask you, is my business important, or is it my business important?"
Yang Youyuan gritted his teeth, his cheekbones were high, and said: "This time is different from the past, this time the matter is too big, such a trivial matter, let's put it later." ”
The woman snorted. Qing Ning listened to it on the side, looked at this, looked at that, his mind was spinning very fast, and he thought of a lot in an instant, but he didn't know if his guess was right, looking at this Yang Youyuan seemed to be very pitiful, this woman called her name, and he didn't dare to refute it, it can be seen that he was very afraid of his wife, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
Qing Ning knew very little about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, she only knew that Liucheng was Liu Changqing's place, and Liu Changqing was the hall master, but this person was clearly also the hall master, and she thought that there was another gang in Liucheng, so she nodded in her heart: "Yes! There is another gang in Liucheng, and Brother Liu's gang is together, the two of them fight all day long, and they are grabbing territory, so Yang Zhen is also a little scared when he sees them, that is, he is afraid that they will see Yang Zhen alone and will come to bully." ”
When I went to see Yang Youyuan, I saw that he just lowered his head, but the woman kept her eyebrows cold, and her eyes looked like she was going to kill him.
Qing Ning suddenly whispered "ah" and said, "The clothes are burning-" Bai Ping came to her senses, whispered lightly, leaned back, Yang Youyuan raised his head and said: "Why are you so ......" The man on the other side of the woman immediately made a decision, immediately reached out and hugged his fist, held Bai Ping's sleeve, from top to bottom, through to the end, clenched his fist and passed over the clothes, the fire was suddenly extinguished, and the man said: "Be more careful in everything." ”
Qing Ning sat in a position, but he clearly saw that after the man sat down, he gently pinched Bai Ping's ass with the palm of his hand, Bai Ping's face moved slightly, but he remained silent, and the man's face also flashed with a wicked smile.
Qing Ning secretly exclaimed in her heart: "It's really incredible! This Bai Ping and this man are not legitimate!" Only then did she notice this man, and saw that he was obscene, ugly, and a little annoying, so she couldn't help but swallow.
Yang Youyuan didn't notice this at all, sighed lightly, and said: "This time the matter is much bigger than anything else in the hall before, not just me? East, west, south, north, and middle, which one is not obedient to the order? The order has already been issued, and anyone who dares to neglect it will be severely punished." ”
The lewd man asked, "Hall Master Yang, what is the matter?" You have not said it, and the brothers have no bottom in their hearts, to be honest, I am not at peace in my heart, alas...... I'm afraid that I will be ...... That deception ......"
Yang Youyuan shook his head and said: "No, how can it be?" It's not that I don't say it, but the main hall has an order, and only the hall master knows about this matter, and it can't be passed on to outsiders." ”
Bai Ping sneered and said, "It turns out that in your heart, a few of them were born and died with you, but they are outsiders!"
Yang Youyuan had nothing to say, he was choked by Bai Ping, and said, "There are no rules, so how can I do it?"
The two people next to him remained silent, and at this time, they also said together: "Hall Master Yang, you have a good breath, we know what we are doing, otherwise we will be killed, and we don't know how we died." Bai Ping squinted at the two of them.
Yang Youyuan thought for a long time before he said: "Okay, Brother Lu, Senior Brother Xue, Senior Brother Hai, I only mention four words, you must not say it to others, this time I went to Liucheng, it was ......" Suddenly looked at Qing Ning, paused, and asked: "Little girl, are you a nun in this Golden Jade Nunnery?"
Qing Ning said: "No, I'm passing by, going to Yangzhou to visit relatives, what do you say, then just say, I just can't hear it, I can't see it." ”
Bai Ping said: "Then how can we do it? We are here to discuss important matters, you can't listen casually, you go out first!"
Qing Ning was furious and argued: "I came first, why should I go out first? If you want to speak, then go out and talk! It was windy and rainy outside, and the sound was blown away, but no one could hear it!"
Bai Ping sneered: "Ahhh
