No regrets returned to the side of the road and turned over the horse, his long hair fluttered in the wind, he didn't know where to go, he rode aimlessly for several days, venting the endless grief and anger in his heart, after he changed into a brand new blue robe, he didn't meet the martial arts people who were chasing and killing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On this day, he rode into a county seat, which was about 300 miles away from Nangong's Taihu Lake, and there were several portraits of wanted criminals posted on the city gate.
led the horse into the city, and when passing by a stall selling steamed buns, he reached out and grabbed a steamed bun, and the voice of the boss shouted from behind: "This little brother, you haven't given the money yet"?
replied without regret and without replying: "If you have a knife on your body, forget it."
After wandering around for most of the day, in a blink of an eye at noon, a restaurant called Taibai Lou, crowded with people, it seems that the business is good, no regrets to tie the horse well, step into the restaurant, because it is the time of the meal, the diners are full of eighty seats, some are guessing the boxing order, some are shouting loudly, the atmosphere is lively but noisy, as soon as people enter this kind of occasion, somehow the voice becomes louder.
He found a seat by the window, thinking about his thoughts alone, the noise around him, as if he didn't hear it at all, there was a small green cloth bag on the table, and another narrow black cloth bag wrapped in his single knife, thinking about where he should go, and how to improve his martial arts, Dugu Wuself, as the descendant of the Dugu family of the four great families, is not something he can compete with now, if he wants to avenge Nangong Yu and wash away the charges on his body, he must have strong strength.
After wandering the rivers and lakes for several months, he realized that life was not easy, and it took money to dress and eat.
The guy brought a big bowl of beef noodle soup, the soup was quite a lot, but there was no beef star, the noodles were still steaming, so fragrant, no regrets took a deep breath, raised the bamboo chopsticks and was waiting to pick the noodle entrance, there was a quarrel next to it, and the fire on both sides was not small, the tone was so high, it actually overwhelmed the other noises.
No regrets is that he is hungry, he eats noodles and looks sideways at the past.
Well, an unkempt, thin and dry bad old man, angrily scolding a cousin boss standing in front of him, that coffin has a thick waist and broad arms, and his arms are wrapped around his chest, which is a posture that is unforgiving and does not take the bad old man seriously at all!
The bad old man patted the table with his hand, the cups and plates on the table were beating, he pointed to the cousin and said: "You are a dog looking down on people, I ate and drank, there is nothing wrong, and it is not that I don't give you silver, you have opened a huge bird shop, don't you still allow diners to hang up their accounts, what kind of business is this? My old man is on credit, and he owes it, and when the time comes, he will pay back the money, and every penny will be indispensable to you, what's the matter, you bastard actually treat me as a white eater?"
The hall raised a big face, and said to the bad old man with his nostrils: "You are always right, opening a store to do business, especially our kind of water and food business, how can there be a reason not to allow guests to hang accounts?" Not only allowed to hang the account, but also very welcome, the problem is that the regular customers can be on credit, at least have to patronize the store a few times, let us recognize the face to hang the account, the old man you are the first to take care of the shop, called the best and most expensive wine and food in the store, if we don't serve you the table, you guarantee that you will take advantage of the old trouble, and wait for our ancestors to serve the same, you wipe your mouth, pat your ass and leave, how do we explain to the shopkeeper, uncle, if everyone is like you, what do we live on?"
The bad old man shouted loudly: "Objectivity here, you listen, you all listen to it, and give me a comment, this bastard really treats me as a bully eater, fellow villagers and neighbors, everyone look at me, does my old man look like he is playing tricks on me to eat for nothing? Fucking a total of two or three dollars of silver, how can I be lazy?"
The eyes of many diners could not help but look at the head and feet of this "old man", and the more they couldn't help but shake their heads, the old man had gray and messy hair, a dirty thin face with poor ingestion, and he was wearing an old sheepskin jacket full of greasy stains and patched nails, but the wool was almost bald, a pair of cotton trousers were bubbling everywhere, and a pair of broken straw shoes were put on his feet, one of which was exposed to his front toes, and the other was only seen with his heels; no one dared to say that he did not eat white food.
The powerful cousin looked at him with a tiger face, and said heavily: "This bit of silver is not a small amount, or uncle, you will simply reward us now?"
The old man said sharply: "My old man has never been in the habit of carrying money with him when he goes out, and he never expected that he would be so angry when he eats a meal; I want you to know that I am used to this tune, and my family is very rich and powerful, with magnificent mansions and clouds, and thousands of acres of fertile land. ”
The palm man was impatient, and his anger also increased by three points: "Nearby, I have never heard of such a rich man as you, you don't want to give me some leisure, and the silver will be brought to you to leave, otherwise it will ......."
The old man glared and screamed, "What else is going on?"
The hall roared: "Eat you raw? Phew, I'm afraid that your old bones will stalk my throat! I tell you, you want to eat for nothing, but you have found the wrong place, and if you can't get the money, you will be stripped of your clothes first, and then you will be sent to the government for a crime of blackmail and denial!"
The bad old man roared: "Is this a restaurant or Sun Erniang's black shop? How dare you forcibly strip the clothes of the guests! You roll my old man aside, and call your shopkeeper, damn it, I want to ask him how he trained you to serve dishes and pour wine!"
Behind the counter, the fat shopkeeper with a shiny face smiled coldly, raised his voice, and said to the bad old man: "You just take a breath, we have seen a lot of evil customers like you who eat for nothing, if you call a small plate and a small bowl, we will admit it, but you are like an uncle, you order famous wine, you want good dishes, but you eat a fine light, you are deceiving us businessmen are all grandchildren? If you can't get the money today, see how we can treat you!"
The old man laughed and forced the old man to come forward and say, "Old man, did you hear what our shopkeeper said? If you don't pay the bill immediately, I will demolish you alive at this moment!"
The bad old man got up from his seat and kept shouting: "It's the other way around, in broad daylight, in the downtown restaurant, there are such tigers' dens and wolves' dens, and they are clearly pitting people and harming people, aren't you afraid of the king's law and the law?"
