Chapter 11: The Dart
Yunxiao and her mother lived in the backyard of their new home, and Aunt Hu's family lived in the front yard.
"Xiao'er, so many silver taels from where you came?"
"Mother, look at you nervously, I recently guessed a thousand-year-old ginseng, sold to the pharmacy to make a lot of money, mother in the future you don't have to work hard embroidery to make money, the son is now also a talent, there is a county school to give grain and rice every month, the future work to support the family will be considered by the son!"
Li Bilian looked at the sensible child, her eyes were red, and she almost burst into tears, Yunxiao hurriedly comforted her mother when she saw this: "Mother, you have worked hard for so many years, it is time to enjoy Qingfu, and my son will take good care of my mother in the future!"
On the third day after moving into the new home, Uncle Hu was going to go out with the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, this time the Weiyuan Dart Bureau went a little far, and he had to escort a large number of medicinal materials and valuable treasures from Xianyang, the capital of the Great Qin Empire, to Anyang, the border city of the Northern Yan Empire, which lasted about half a year.
"Mother, Uncle Hu has been walking for a long time this time, I want to follow to experience the experience, the book also says that reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, my son wants to follow, on the other hand, he can also earn a sum of silver!"
"Xiao'er, you are still young, you have to go to such a far place, my mother is really not at ease!"
"Mother, the child is not young anymore, I am now thirteen years old, and I think that the young prime minister of our Great Qin Empire was only fourteen years old!"
Li Bilian knew that she couldn't convince her son, so she had to start packing for her son's outing. Uncle Hu listened to Yunxiao's decision and did not object, he had already learned from his son's family letter that Yunxiao's martial arts were very good.
Early the next morning, Yunxiao followed Uncle Hu to the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, the Weiyuan Dart Bureau in Qingcheng County was only a branch of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, and they gathered people to go to the General Bureau in Xianyang, the capital of the Great Qin Empire.
When Yunxiao followed Uncle Hu to the compound of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, many dart masters had already heard that Uncle Hu, who was born as a hunter, was going to Xianyang with a new dart master, and when they saw Yunxiao, who was still a teenager, they couldn't help but be disappointed. Many dart masters even pouted to show their dissatisfaction.
If it weren't for Uncle Hu's kung fu, there would definitely be many dissatisfied dart masters who came to blame Yunxiao back then. Yunxiao looked at the dart masters in the courtyard, snorted softly, and then deliberately said to these dart masters:
"If any of you are not convinced, you can come up and have a fight with me. This is ten taels of silver as the lottery head of this contest!"
A burly man named Li Tieniu among the dart masters, when he heard Yunxiao's words, his nose was almost crooked, but he was proud of his bravery, but he disdained Yunxiao to do it, only to see him snort. Motioned to a dart master next to him to go and make a move with Yunxiao.
Zhang Kai is a not very senior dart master in the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, less than thirty years old, with an obvious scar on his white face, he took two wooden sticks for sparring and walked to the opposite side of Yunxiao, and threw one of the sticks to Yunxiao, Yunxiao took the wooden stick, and immediately sensed a strange aura from this person.
"This guy doesn't look like a good guy, and he doesn't seem to be as simple as a dart master!"
Yunxiao sensed the abnormality of the other party's breath, and secretly thought about it in his heart. Clenched his fists and said:
"My name is Yunxiao, what do you call this big brother?"
Zhang Kai had no intention of answering Yunxiao's words, but simply said, "Zhang Kai!"
Yunxiao didn't care about the wooden stick that Zhang Kai was carrying the evil wind to sweep towards him, and waited until the opponent's wooden stick was about to reach the top of his head, so he stabbed out with the wooden stick in his hand, and this stick directly broke the wooden stick in Zhang Kai's hand from the middle, and quickly stopped at the critical place where he opened his throat.
"Okay! This kid is good at kung fu!"
When Zhang Kai heard the dart masters around him laughing and cheering for Yunxiao, he was immediately ashamed and threw down half of the wooden stick in his hand. U-turn and run to the backyard of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau.
"And the one who gave the lesson!"
Lu Chengfeng, as the head of the Qingcheng County Branch of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, couldn't help but be secretly angry when he saw Yunxiao, who was very arrogant, and finally walked in front of Yunxiao and said loudly:
"Little guy, Lu is the dart head of Weiyuan Dart Bureau. Make a bet with you this time, if you lose, immediately kneel down and kowtow to Lu Mou!"
"Uncle Lu, what if you lose?"
"Little guy, his tone is so big, Lu will not lose!"
"I mean, what if you lose?"
Yunxiao didn't show mercy to the other party at all in the face of the arrogant Lu Chengfeng, he was going to be despised in the process of being neutral among the dart masters and walking darts at the same time.
"Boy. If you win, Lu will give you the position of the dart head!"
"Okay, that's it!"
Yunxiao faced Lu Chengfeng, the veteran dart head of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, and watched the changes with a stick, Lu Chengfeng was even more angry when he saw this, only to see him waving a wooden stick and turning into a stick shadow in the sky, and attacking Yunxiao with a virtual and real reality.
Yunxiao faced Lu Chengfeng's attack this time, he did not face the enemy head-on, but moved extremely fast, circling around Lu Chengfeng, Lu Chengfeng did not touch Yunxiao with a few sticks in a row, and suddenly felt a little flustered, hurriedly stabilized his mind, prepared to stabilize his position, and after seeing Yunxiao's movements clearly, he made plans.
Lu Chengfeng turned from attack to defense, but gave Yunxiao a chance to take advantage of, the wooden stick in Yunxiao's hand stabbed out towards Lu Chengfeng, because his speed was too fast, the heavy stick shadow frightened Lu Chengfeng hurriedly retreated, but Yunxiao turned around, and kicked the purple gold crown in the back of Lu Chengfeng's head, and suddenly Lu Chengfeng was caught off guard and fell unconscious.
The other dart masters and dart heads saw that Yunxiao easily knocked down Lu Chengfeng, and they looked at each other one by one, they couldn't believe that such a young Yunxiao would have such a skill, and suddenly everyone didn't dare to despise Yunxiao.
"Xiao'er, I didn't expect Erzhu to exaggerate your kung fu at all, go, follow me to see the chief dart!"
Ma Tianxiao, the chief dart head of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, is known as the king of fast knives and is good at making a pair of silver knives. He was about forty years old, well-proportioned, with a half-foot-long beard under his chin, and wore a lake-blue silk robe.
"Mr. Ma's dart, this is my nephew Yunxiao, this time I have been allowed by Mr. Dart to accompany the dart, Hu is grateful!"
"What did Hu Darttou say, since your nephew has this ability and can help him, Ma will naturally not be stingy!"
After Yunxiao waited for Uncle Hu and Mr. Ma to greet each other, he stepped forward and bowed to Mr. Ma's darthead and said:
"Yunxiao met Mr. Ma's dart head, and he had to be carried by Mr. Ma's dart. Yunxiao is grateful!"
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Brother Yun, since you won the Lu Dart. Then it means that your kung fu is good, but you are going out for the first time, so Ma gives you a position as a trainee dart, and you follow Hu Dart, and he will guide you in everything!"
"Thank you. Total dart!"
After Yunxiao met Mr. Ma's dart head, he and Uncle Hu left the front hall and officially started their careers as dart masters. In the front hall of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, after Yunxiao and Uncle Hu left, Mr. Ma stroked his beard under his chin and said:
"It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, this little brother Yun is so young, but his strength is extraordinary, it is worth cultivating well!"
"Chief dartman," Qi Jun, a gray-robed middle-aged man and deputy chief dart leader of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, said at this time, "You may not know yet. Is this kid still a talented man?"
"Oh!" Mr. Ma listened to the words of Deputy Chief Dart Qi, and couldn't help but have a look of surprise on his face.
"Yes, it seems that our Qingcheng County Branch of Weiyuan Dart Bureau can be in the limelight this time, and then we just need to investigate the character of this little guy!"
After Yunxiao followed Uncle Hu to meet with the dart master and the dart head in the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, in the afternoon of that year, the dart head and the dart master, under the leadership of the deputy head of Qi, rode towards Xianyang in the northwest.
To get to Xianyang from Qingcheng County, you need to pass through one state capital and two county seats. Everywhere he went, Uncle Hu had to tell Yunxiao about things, and at the same time tell him along the way where there were bandits.
Five days later, the dart head dart master of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, who had been working day and night, finally arrived in Xianyang. It was the first time for Yunxiao to see a metropolis of Xianyang's size. There are a total of eight gates in the whole Xianyang City, and the city is built with an urn city, a moat, and a city pass responsible for the town guard.
After entering Xianyang City from Yongding Gate, Yunxiao followed Uncle Hu to the Weiyuan Dart Bureau located in the south of the city. On the two red lacquered doors of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, a blue plaque reads the four golden characters of Weiyuan Dart Bureau. There were quite a few guards standing on both sides of the gate. On the tethered horse stake in front of the gate, there are a lot of BMW horses tied to it, and there are many splendid carriages that come from time to time.
"Uncle Hu, I'm afraid the dart we are going to escort this time is not small!"
Yunxiao pointed to the carriage of dignitaries and said to Uncle Hu, Uncle Hu looked at the carriages and whispered to him: "Xiao'er, let's just take care of the darts, let's ignore the affairs of these wealthy and powerful people!"
Saying that, Yunxiao followed Uncle Hu and followed the head of the dart of Qi into the Weiyuan dart game, and the dart bureau was full of people and traffic, as lively as a bazaar.
"Qi Darthead, you came really early, the other dart games except for He Darthead from Fucheng they arrived, you are the second wave to arrive!"
"Mr. Zhao, personally greet us today, Qi is grateful!"
After the greeting between Vice President Qi and President Zhao of the General Bureau of Weiyuan Dart Bureau, the two of them walked towards the conference hall, and Uncle Hu took Yunxiao and other darts to inspect the various medicinal materials escorted this time.
That night, Mr. Zhao personally feasted everyone, and everyone drank very happily, but no one drank too much, because they would be responsible for counting all kinds of escorted items in the next two days, and no one dared to be careless, because there were many priceless treasures among these items.
Early the next morning, Mr. Zhao sent someone to inform everyone to go to the conference hall to discuss the matter, and Yunxiao, as a trainee dart, also followed Uncle Hu to the conference hall.
In the conference hall, there are crowds, and there is a phoenix crown, a set of red curtains, red coral, bracelets, earrings, finger rings and other items of various gemstones, and a large number of calligraphy and painting antiquities are piled up in several cases.
"Mr. Zhao invited everyone to come, just to let everyone take a look at the goods that our dart bureau is responsible for escorting this time. These are the dowries of Princess Lingyue of our Great Qin Empire, and they are the key escorts this time, and there must be no mistakes on the way!"
One of the people on Mr. Zhao's dart head was responsible for telling everyone about the appropriate time for this dart, but Yunxiao's two eyes were staring at Mr. Zhao's dart head. Mr. Zhao is about fifty years old, of medium stature, with slightly gray hair, a pair of bright eyes, and two hands holding the armrest of the mahogany chair, which seems to be a little nervous.
In the conference hall, in addition to Mr. Zhao's dart, the next thing that was noticed by Yunxiao was an elderly servant, this servant was wearing a green coat, a hat on his head, the expression on his face was a little blank, but a pair of eyes were dripping there, as if he was looking for something.
The servant secretly connected with the gestures made by the other servants present through the hand that was attached to his thigh. When two of the servants walked past Princess Lingyue's dowry, one of the servants deliberately knocked over the teacup held for Mr. Zhao's darthead, attracting everyone's attention to Mr. Zhao's dart.
"Chief dart, please forgive the little rudeness!"
"Forget it, let's go down!"
The servant who had done something wrong seemed to have known that this would happen, and was about to leave with his head bowed and the broken teacup, when Yunxiao walked over a few steps, stretched out his hand on the servant's shoulder, and tapped twice on his chest, so that the servant stood motionless and could not say a word.
Following the shaking of Yunxiao's figure, in the blink of an eye, he came to the two servants who walked past from Princess Lingyue's dowry, and the fingers of their two hands flew one after another, and the two servants suddenly stood motionless like the servant in front.
"Brother Yun, what are you doing here?"
"Vice President Qi, these guys are all thieves, and they are working together to prepare the dowry of Princess Lingyue!"
Although Yunxiao's words were said in front of the head of the vice president of Qi, a pair of eyes were staring at the old servant with a pair of young eyes.
The old servant saw Yunxiao staring at him, pretending not to know, turned around and slowly prepared to leave the council hall, but Yunxiao raised his hand and shot out two flying needles, sealing the opponent's acupoint.
In the conference hall, two guys dressed as darts suddenly walked out of the crowd and came to Mr. Zhao's dart, and the two of them were shocked when the clouds appeared like lightning before they approached Mr. Zhao's dart, and stood in place.
"Blue Peacock!"
Someone among the darts present suddenly exclaimed in a low voice, although Yunxiao didn't know what the blue peacock was, he also guessed that this kind of thing must contain poison.
The head of the dart dispersed into a large circle, and the old servant and the three servants were all pushed in front of the head of Mr. Zhao's dart and waited for Mr. Zhao's dart to fall...... (To be continued.) )
PS: Yunxiao followed Weiyuan Dart Game this time, did the dart go well?
