Chapter 243: An Uninvited Guest from the Gambling House
Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Xingxing chatted all night in the secret room, the sky was clear, Sikong Xingxing said with a smile, "It's dawn, my business is my business, your business is still your business, you know yourself." ”
The whole room shook slightly, only to hear a "click", Zhu Zixiu walked in, and said with a smile, "I don't know how the two gambles, it's time to rest!"
Lu Xiaofeng owed a debt and said, "Gambling with this kind of scoundrel, there is only losing, there is no win, not to mention losing the carriage, and losing a night." ”
Zhu Zixiu listened, and said with a smile, "Don't say it, he really got it right, yesterday evening, a group of inexplicable people came, about thirty or forty of them, all with hideous faces, weapons in their hands, and fierce looks. ”
Sikong Xingxing said while cleaning up the table where he had eaten all night, "What else did they do?"
Zhu Zixiu said, "They were generous, gave ten taels of silver, and said that they wanted to stay and gamble, so they began to look in the entire gambling house, upstairs and downstairs, but there was nothing, no money to gamble, no food, and left the gambling house in a hurry." ”
Lu Xiaofeng understood that this group of people must have come for him, but why did they follow here? At this moment, Sikong Xingxing smiled and said, "Do you remember that carriage?"
Why didn't Lu Xiaofeng remember, it was from Sun's Mansion when he set off, and he was worth it, and when he arrived here yesterday, he was sold for 1 tael of silver by Sikong Xingxing.
Sikong Xingxing said with a smile, "The problem is in that carriage, this carriage has a layer of transparent mandala on it, this flower is colorless and odorless, but if you get it, you drink realgar wine, no matter how thousand miles, you can smell its unique taste." You drive this carriage, and wherever you go, they will easily find you, and I will sell him and let them look for you according to the smell, and I am sure they will not find you. ”
It turned out that Sikong Xingxing sold Lu Xiaofeng's carriage in order to get him rid of the people behind the scenes.
When Lu Xiaofeng heard this, he was not very grateful, and said, "It's really a thief, how could I think of this?"
Zhu Zixiu smiled, had already moved the sleeping Sun Xiangyuan out, put it on the bed, and then said, "Okay, it's okay now, let those guys go to find it, you have been busy all night, and it is time to rest." ”
Lu Xiaofeng owed, climbed into the bed prepared by Zhu Zixiu, and fell asleep with his head covered.
Sikong picked up the stars and found realgar wine, drank two taels, and said to Zhu Zixiu, "I'll go and see where the carriage goes." ”
Zhu Zixiu glanced at him and said, "You night owl, you didn't sleep all night last night, why do you think about it now? What's the big deal, go now?"
Sikong Xingxing understood in his heart that this was Zhu Zixiu's meticulous care, and he should have said something of thanks, but his mouth said, "You, even if you have long hair, short knowledge and wisdom, and are loyal, how can you delay?"
Zhu Zixiu helped him straighten his clothes and said, "Be careful on the road, and come back as soon as you finish your work." ”
Sikong Xingxing said with a hippie smile, "Don't worry, the wildflowers on the roadside have thorns, and I won't pick them." ”
Zhu Zixiu dug his mouth and said, "Young and poor, don't take a basin of water to take care of your own sharp-beaked monkey gills, throw it on the road, and don't even smell the dogs, who is rare, go quickly." ”
With infinite attachment to Zhu Zixiu, Sikong picked up stars from the back door, crossed a few lanes, swaggered down the street, turned a few corners, and came to a farmer's house, he relied on realgar wine, easily walked to the carriage, he didn't enter the yard, just flashed to the side, looked at everything in front of him, the farmer master came out, looked at the carriage, smiled on his face, and then shook it again, sighed, and walked in.
Did the group of people looking for the carriage come here? Why did the farmer shake his head? Why did he sigh? A series of questions came to his mind, and then he walked cautiously to the backyard of the farmhouse, and came a "dragonfly and a little water", like a vigorous dragon straight into the farmhouse.
The farmer's family was an old man forty miles away, and when he saw Sikong picking stars sneaking in like this, his face was as frightened as earth, "You...... You...... Are you the God of Wealth?"
Sikong Xingxing secretly laughed, "Hehe, how did you become the God of Wealth?" He pressed the joy in his heart and said solemnly, "You still know Uncle Ben, tell me where the carriage in your courtyard came from?"
When the farmer heard this, he bent his knees, knelt down, and said, "If you go back to the God of Wealth, it was bought for a tael of silver, and I said what happened today, and I sold the carriage for a tael of silver." ”
Sikong Xingxing said seriously. "A gentleman has good money, and you don't want to think about it, how can this carriage be worth only one or two pieces of silver, both in appearance and quality? How can you pick up such a cheap thing, do you know the origin of this carriage?"
The second monk of the old farmer was puzzled, shook his head and said, "If you go back to the God of Wealth, I also thought so at the beginning, how can such a good carriage only be worth one or two silver? ”
Sikong Xingxing said, "Has anyone come to ask about the carriage?"
The old farmer shook his head and said, "I bought it from the market, and I just led the horse to the backyard, and was about to find a place to put it, but no one has ever asked." ”
Sikong Xingxing understands that he came here directly, and the person who followed the carriage must have been looking for it all the way, it seems that its purpose is to check which people Lu Xiaofeng and his party have interacted with, and they haven't found this place yet, Sikong Jiexing is secretly proud, and then said to the old farmer, "Do you know, this carriage is the broom star of the evil god in the sky, if you buy him, you will definitely be unlucky to the top, there will be no pie in the sky, and all that falls are traps, fortunately, this god passed through this place and found it early, otherwise, you will be in great trouble." ”
The old man of the peasant family kowtowed again and again, and said again and again, "Thank you God of Wealth for coming to this house, thank you God of Wealth for rescuing ......"
Sikong Xingxing lowered his voice and said, "Who told me to encounter such a thing? I will never let you suffer, you quickly put the carriage in place, and rushed to the Yamen of the Jinling Prefect as it is, remember, don't delay on the road, even if you pee, there is the Yamen, there is the left door god, the right door god is protected, and the broom star is helpless, after you send it to the yamen, leave quickly, don't let others see it." ”
The old peasant was so frightened by this "God of Wealth" that his tongue trembled, and he kowtowed again and again and said yes, and Sikong Xingxing continued, "You have to remember, if someone asks about the origin of the carriage, you say that it was given to you by a man with four eyebrows, and you must not say that it was bought in the bazaar, understand? They must be the subordinates of the broom star, and if you talk nonsense, he will say that you are greedy and cheap, and you will definitely take your life if you defile his gods." ”
The old farmer was already so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and he kowtowed again and again to say yes, Sikong Xingxing took out a silver ingot from his arms, which was as much as five taels, and said, "It's rare that we have a fate, this God has a compassionate heart, this bit of silver, you take it and collect it, don't be greedy for small gains in the future, greedy for small gains, you will suffer a big loss!"
The old peasant took the silver, nodded his head again and again, and urged, "Go! Prepare the carriage and do as I say, the sooner the better." ”
What the God of Wealth said, how could the old peasant not listen to it, hurriedly went out, quickly put on his horse, and hurriedly went towards the Yamen of the Jinling Prefect.
Sikong Xingxing secretly hid in the house, looking at everything in the yard, the old man went out about a pillar of incense, and more than a dozen Jianghu men came to the yard, what should they do? )
