Chapter 56 Lu Pan and Red Qiu

···

Chivalry violates the prohibition with martial arts, and Confucianism violates the law with literature.

The old blind man has survived by the rules all his life, and what he did is just a means to make a living, which is understandable, Jiang Yangsheng felt sad and sympathetic after listening to it, and he couldn't help but think of the scenes he saw when he traveled south, if it weren't for Jiang Loan's expulsion of him out of his house and going to the rivers and lakes to take a walk in the rivers and lakes, this naïve second son of Beilai would have thought that the world's rivers and seas were as rich as Beilai, but he had seen a poignant scene that he had never seen since he was a child.

Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road, which is the true portrayal of the current Great Zhou Dynasty.

The anger of the little people, the mind of the big people are vividly shown in the land of the Great Zhou, in order to study the career of selling children, in order to get promoted and make a fortune by unscrupulous means, is the rich Beilai does not also have this fly camp dog?

Jiang Yangsheng got up, the evil breath that had accumulated in his chest disappeared at this moment, he didn't know why the old blind man didn't deceive himself this time, but revealed his heart, was it a discovery of conscience?

Unknown.

He silently got up, took out a silver ticket, and pressed it under the old blind man's hexagram, then got up and walked away quietly.

After a long time, the old blind man who was still sad got up, took out the kind of silver ticket below and rolled his eyes, rubbed it carefully as he did with his daughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "Old blind man, I am blind but not deaf, I have heard that you are the wronged boss back then, and you can't beat you, so you can only play a bitter trick, and you are really profitable!"

The old blind man rubbed the silver ticket in his hand, was silent for a long time, and suddenly burst into tears, the sound came far away in the quiet street, which made many people feel inexplicable, he didn't care, and the old tears in his cloudy eyes were full of tears.

"It turns out that not all shrewd people in the world are there, and there are old things that care about me but can't die..."

The eyes of the old blind man, who had not shed tears for many years, were now filled with old tears.

···

Jiang Yangsheng said goodbye to the old god stick of fortune telling, of course, he wouldn't know that the old blind man just staged a bitter story, if he knew now that Jiang Yangsheng would definitely go back to kill him, so that the old guy was caught off guard, naturally he wouldn't know that the old guy's sobs flowed, life is not easy for everyone, the poor are poor and burned, the rich are burned with money, and every family always has a scripture that is difficult to read.

On this trip, he didn't have to go to Qingzhou, and there were no mortal people in Qingzhou, but Qingzhou left too many deep impressions in Jiang Yangsheng's memory, until Rujian felt that his memory was still fresh, and his favorite dish was called' Stir-fried shredded pork with pickles', there is the taste of home that I miss the most, and what I miss the most is a brother who fights when I am together, and I miss him if he is not together, there is the hard work of the peddlers and pawns, and the scheming of the small people in the market who give people a headache, there are fierce shrews scolding the street, and there are gangsters who fight and kill, this is a living Qingzhou.

In the city of Qingzhou, from time to time there are carriages carrying the goods that cover the dense and hurried out of the city, the horses are all red horses, the grooms are undoubtedly strong men, a group of people shouted and scolded all the way to the outside of the city, pedestrians have to give way to avoid snakes and scorpions, this is the Qingzhou salt gang in the transport of smuggled salt, the industry of private salt is naturally the dish of some bigwigs and nobles in Qingzhou City, it is undoubtedly monopolized strictly, and even regarded as a forbidden, carve up the private salt This kind of profiteering errand, which will inevitably have differences due to uneven distribution of profits or bad looks。

Lu Pan is the largest salt gang in Qingzhou' Dizangtang's little minion, as small as he is in his early twenties and mixed in the salt gang in Qingzhou City abounds, just like many young people want to fight the sword rivers and lakes, the young children of Qingzhou City do not like the rivers and lakes, like to enter the salt gang, Dizangtang is the largest salt gang in Qingzhou, the behind-the-scenes manipulator is the Qingzhou county guard, this is a well-known secret, although Qingzhou is called a state, but it is a county, but the county guard of Qingzhou is a few points better than its general state pastor, after all, private salt is a big way to make money, as long as the king of Beilai does not pursue the matter of private salt, even if the emperor Lao'er comes, he can't care。

The oil and water moisture of the private salt for many years has made the originally not very prosperous Qingzhou City full of vitality, and the private salt has made Qingzhou City, a city that was almost destroyed in the baptism of war, have a second spring.

Lu Pan as a newcomer who has only joined in the past two years has nothing to speak of, all day long in the face of those old people's arrogance, angry to be angry, Lu Pan has no complaints, every newcomer has walked like this, no one has any grievances, hard work is not counted, but everything is done meticulously.

But let Lu Pan do everything without leakage, but there are still people in the Dizang Hall who make stumbling blocks in private, picking faults all day long, at first Lu Pan didn't care about them, but this time has become more and more intensified, even a mud Bodhisattva will also have a little anger, the Dizang Hall is privately divided into two factions, the subordinates of the two factions are attached to the two powerful worshippers, the second worship and the third worship two people usually have a good relationship, and when they are free, they also drink tea together and enjoy the scenery, and they don't see any conflicts and unhappiness, but the subordinates of the two people are inseparable from each other。

Lu Pan is a little minion attached to the hands of the second worship, although I don't understand why the people around him are so respectful of the second worship who has a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, others say how righteous and heroic the second worship is, Lu Pan didn't see it, he only felt that the second offering was really a little lustful, not as fairy and Taoist as the people around him said, but it was really a bit obscene.

Lu Pan is just a pawn guarding the salt warehouse at the moment, there is nothing to do all day long, and the errand of guarding the salt warehouse is not tired, but the income is still much less, originally the Dizang Hall was equipped with a knife for everyone who guarded the salt warehouse, which is an honor that has never been had except for the brothers who escorted the smuggling salt, Lu Pan didn't wear it if he was too cumbersome, and besides, the reputation of the Dizang Hall was far and wide, who would come here to find bad luck?

Lu Pan had nothing to do, sitting outside the empty warehouse, surrounded by carriages that came and went to haul illicit salt, he sat on a stone far away and thought about things with his chin under his plow, and muttered: "I don't know if Jiang Softan is home now." It's a pity that a big man, obviously a handle but born is a little better than a girl's family, he said that he wants to travel 16,000 miles to Shushan, and I don't know if his emaciated body can hold up, it is estimated that nine times out of ten he died on the road, no one collects the body is quite pitiful, and he bragged all day long that he is the son of a big family, which big family can be like him? The only lame old servant around him is more cowardly than the master. ”

Lu Pan muttered to himself, and suddenly grinned as if he remembered something funny.

"If you steal meat from me again, I won't slaughter you. ”

Lu Pan sat on the fast stone for a long time, only to feel a chill under his buttocks, and a strange tone of neither yin nor yang came from afar: "Little man, hurry up and go to the stable to wash the horse's nose and feed the horse with fodder." ”

Lu Pan glanced at the guy standing in the distance, his face was calm, and he didn't speak, and then he got up and walked to the stable.

When he walked to the man's side and passed by him, he only felt that his body was suddenly sticky, his center of gravity leaned forward, and he was about to fall to the ground unconsciously, Lu Pan had not learned any martial arts, but he followed the second worship there to practice a set of shoddy boxing techniques, as a purpose for strengthening his body, he was not a heavenly posture, and he had no foundation to add to his body, so he was hooked by the person next to him and fell to the ground like a vicious dog eating.

The man smiled and said, "Lu Pan, we are also old acquaintances, so we can't afford to make such a heavy salute when we meet." ”

Many people around him burst into laughter after hearing this.

Lu Pan got up and looked at each other angrily, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth for a long time and still didn't make a sound, silently walked to the stable, touched the green-maned horse and didn't speak.

People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden.

After Lu Pan washed the horse's nose, he added a lot of forage to the horse, and then squatted in front of the horse, and said to himself: "Horse, horse, the ancients are right, people are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, but I am not a kind person, I have done bad things when I was with Jiang Softdan, but I was always bullied, if I call Jiang Soft, maybe he bullied others, I have never seen a master who can bully people like Jiang Softegg." People say that the family that comes out of the deep mansion compound will bully people, and Jiang Softegg is quite similar. ”

After Lu Pan washed the horse's nose, the sky was already getting dark, he muttered to the horse, but unconsciously wasted a lot of time, now see that the sky is getting dark, and the sky is cloudy and uncertain, there will be autumn rain without accident, and when he returns home, he still needs his own cooking to eat, thinking of this, Lu Pan quickly got up and ran towards home.

The sky turned dark, the pedestrians on the street gradually decreased, most of them were in a hurry, many shops on both sides of the street were closed, Lu Pan turned three times and walked out of Qingzhou City, and then ran towards a remote place outside the city.

But I saw a fiery red back standing at the door of his house, Lu Pan stopped in the distance, his brows were twisted together, his own family since Lu Pan's father died of illness, the original family is not very solid, the old house is still in disrepair, there is a way that 'poor in the downtown no one asks rich in the deep mountains have distant relatives', a cadre of relatives of Lu Pan's family has drawn a clear line as early as after the death of Lu Pan's father, and there is no longer entanglement, and now the figure of this vermilion sable Qiu is not very old, is it a distant relative of his own family? I don't think so.

Lu Pan smiled bitterly in his heart, how could he have relatives in mink fur at home?

At that moment, Lu Pan stopped thinking about it, and walked towards the red-furred man.
