Chapter 8 Tips for the Rivers and Lakes

"Bump!"

"Ouchβ€”"

"Give it to me, that's mine!"

"Whoever said it, I picked it up first, it should be mine. ”

"Fart! It's clear that Lao Tzu saw it first, give it back to me. ”

......

Outside Xiangyang City, two emaciated teenagers scuffled and chased towards the city gate.

They were sloppy, muddy and dirty, and their hair was shaggy and unkempt, making it difficult to see their true faces, causing the soldiers of the city guard and the people entering the city to turn their attention to them.

"Stop! What are you doing?"

A soldier armed with a spear blocked the two's path.

The two teenagers immediately stopped and looked at the soldiers in front of them in horror, it was Long Jun and Ding Yi.

Long Jun stepped forward and was about to explain, when the soldier jerked back and exclaimed, "Stop! Damn! What does it smell like on you? Why do you stink so much? Get out of the way, stand away!"

Sure enough, the people around them all took a few steps back, isolating the two of them.

Long Jun said innocently: "Isn't it just that you haven't taken a bath for a few days, you don't need to be like this!"

The soldier covered his nose and said, "Damn, it stinks to death! Tell me!" What are you doing?"

Long Jun said: "We are all orphans, and our relatives have died in the famine. When Liu Lang arrived here, he wanted to go into the city to eat, and that person was with me. As he spoke, he pointed to Ding Yi beside him.

"Hmph!" Ding Yi said angrily: "Whoever is with you, return the gold leaf to me!" Then one turned over and threw himself at Long Jun, and the two of them hit each other.

"Bang" ......

"That's my ......"

"Fart! I found out first, and I ...... back"

"Damn! whoever picks it up first will be whoever! I'll bite ......."

"Give me back!

......

"Bang-"

Between the two fighting, Long Jun suddenly shook his hand and threw Ding Yi into the crowd, scaring everyone to dodge left and right.

Then, Ding Yi also threw Long Jun to the city gate, and the soldiers hurriedly got out of the way, for fear of getting a little bad luck......

In this way, the scene outside the city suddenly became chaotic.

......

"Okay! right now. Yue Fan had been in the corner of the wall, avoiding the sight of the soldiers on the city wall. Now that the attention of the soldiers defending the city is all attracted by Long Jun and the others, it is a good time to sneak into the city.

"Whoosh!" ......

With Yue Fan's speed, the naked eyes of the soldiers naturally couldn't catch up. I felt a breeze sweep across my cheeks, but when I turned my head to look, I found nothing.

"Stop!" the general of the city guard came from the city wall, and when he saw this situation, he was angry in his heart, and shouted: "You all stop me, or you will all be arrested." ”

"Uh!" Long Jun and Ding Yi were stunned when they heard this, and immediately stopped fighting, and the scene was under control.

The general interrogated, "What are you two beggars doing?"

Long Jun said tremblingly: "If you go back to the adult, the little one is an orphan from Luohe County, who came here to escape the famine. Today, I picked up three gold leaves on the road, but the man said that he saw it first, and if you have to snatch it, you have to make the decision for me!" he said and took out three large gold leaves from his torn clothes, which shone in the refraction of the sun.

The general was stunned, and the greed in his eyes flashed.

"Ahem......" The general straightened his face and said solemnly: "These three gold leaves are ownerless, and they should be handed over to the government, how can you collect them privately, and if you don't hand them over quickly, you can avoid the sin of ignorance." ”

"What!?"

Ding Yi shouted, and said angrily: "This is what we found!"

Long Jun also said: "Yes, since it is an ownerless thing, we will pick it up and it will be ours." Then he said to Ding Yi: "Let's not earn it, divide it equally, so as not to get nothing." ”

"Okay!" Ding Yi nodded vigorously in agreement.

At this time, the general's face turned cold, and he said coldly: "Don't give shame, otherwise, ...... Hmph!" With a gesture of his hand, more than a dozen city guard soldiers ran up with weapons in their hands, and surrounded Long Jun and Ding Yi tightly in the center.

"What are you doing?"

Long Jun said loudly: "Do you have any royal law?

"That's it, this gold leaf is obviously the first thing we got it, you are obviously a robbery, don't you say?" Ding Yi said and looked at the people around him and asked.

"That's right......"

"That's right, what's the difference between this and a robber......"

Seeing that the people around him were talking endlessly, the general glared at everyone with his eyes and shouted, "What are you doing...... What are you trying to rebel against?"

Sure enough, these people were frightened by this, and they all bowed their heads and retreated without saying a word, for fear of getting into trouble with the officials, and the crime of rebellion was something they could not bear.

Seeing that everyone no longer had any objections, the general nodded with satisfaction. Turning to Long Jun and the others, "I now suspect you of stealing other people's property...... Knock them into a military prison. ”

Long Jun glanced at Ding Yi and was about to hand over the golden leaf......

"Wait!" With a soft shout, a man with a folding fan walked out of the crowd, followed by a beautiful and lovely little girl.

The general saw that someone had come out to make trouble, and was about to get angry, but a son with an extraordinary bearing came over.

"This person has a noble temperament and extraordinary clothes, and he must not be an ordinary person, so it is better to ask clearly, so as not to offend the nobles. The general thought for an instant, stepped forward and said politely: "What advice does this son have?" ”

The huge contrast in treatment made Long Jun and the others depressed, and secretly sighed: "It's good to be rich!"

But the son said coldly: "I saw everything just now!"

"Oh!" the general's heart tightened, and he asked, "What does the boy want?"

Gongzi glanced at the people around him and said solemnly: "Now all over the world, you actually neglect your duties, abuse your power for personal gain, rob the people's property, and abandon the military law to disregard, you can know that this is a capital crime." ”

The more the general listened, the more frightened he became, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still insisted on: "Who is the son? How dare you teach this general such a lesson?!"

Childe snorted coldly, gestured and said, "You come with me!" As he spoke, he led the little girl into the distance.

The general wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said to the soldiers, "You guys watch here first!" and immediately followed.

The "......" soldiers looked at each other and could only stand aside.

......

After a while, the general led the boy back, his eyes full of awe.

"It seems that this person is not small!" Ding Yi whispered.

Long Jun crooked his mouth and smiled: "Well, most of them are the sons of powerful families. Hey...... Anyway, we're not on the same path. ”

Ding Yi also smiled brightly: "But I still thank him for saving us three gold leaves!

......

Long Jun and Ding Yi cautiously entered Xiangyang City, and they were secretly relieved in their hearts.

Catching up on the street, Long Jun arched his hand to the boy just now and said, "Thank you for your help this time, otherwise my brothers will have to die of poverty." ”

Gongzi Qian smiled: "You can't close your hands and be polite......"

"Hey, why are you staring at me all the time!" said the little girl beside Childe angrily.

Long Jun turned his head to look, but it was Ding Yi, the kid, who was in a daze.

Hearing the little girl's question, Ding Yicai said stupidly: "Good-looking!"

"......" Everyone was speechless, they had never seen such a straightforward person, they all looked at Ding Yi in a daze, and the little girl was even more flushed, eager to find a place to get in.

But Ding Yi didn't have any consciousness at all, and still looked at the little girl intently.

Long Jun was embarrassed for a while, and secretly admired: "Amazing! It seems that I really underestimate my brother, and I pretend to be ......honest in a sullen voice."

"Cough, cough ......" Childe coughed dryly twice, and arched his hand: "Since it's okay, then I'll leave." After saying that, he took the little girl and turned away.

Long Jun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what your name is?"

The boy turned his head and chuckled, "My name is Zhu San." He looked at the little girl and said, "Her name is Zhu Feng, haha-"

Seeing people leaving, Long Jun said loudly: "My name is Long Jun, and his name is Ding Yi." The clear mountains do not change, the green water flows for a long time, we will have a period in the future!"

......

At the end, Long Jun kicked Ding Yi and scolded with a smile: "Damn! Everyone is gone, you still see! Sichun is gone?"

Zhu Feng ...... Zhu Feng...... Good name......" Ding Yi ignored Long Jun and memorized the little girl's name attentively, which was even more serious than when he recited "Raising the Heart".

"Alas......" Long Jun felt helpless, so he had to say: "Let's go, don't let the master worry!"

"Master......" Ding Yi suddenly came back to his senses and said, "Yes, let's go find Master first!"

Long Jun laughed for a while: "I thought you knew a beautiful woman, and even the master forgot about it...... Hey, hey!"

Ding Yi hurriedly retorted: "How can I have it!? Let's go!" and then turned around and walked away.

......

―――――――――――― an antique shop, Zhu Feng puffed at Zhu San: "Why are you telling them my name, I hate it!"

Zhu San said with a smile: "Those two people are quite interesting, especially the one named Ding Yi, who is so straightforward, it seems that the charm of the little sister is infinite...... Huh, why are you blushing?"

Zhu Feng covered his red face and retorted: "Isn't it just two little beggars?"

Zhu San's face turned straight and said, "Don't underestimate the two of them, if my guess is right, the battle at the city gate just now was just acting." ”

"Acting!" Zhu Feng said curiously: "What kind of play are they playing?"

"This ...... How do I know this!"

Zhu San said again: "Look at the light in their eyes, and their hands are calloused, because they should also be extraordinary people!"

"Oh, then can they beat you?" asked Zhu Feng innocently.

"They're still a little tender!" Zhu San said.

......

―――――――――――― "Ah Jun, do you say that Master can find us?" In a dark back alley, Ding Yi looked left and right.

"Of course, don't you know Master's skills? He told us to go to a remote place, and we will definitely find us, don't worry. Long Jun affirmed.

Seeing that Ding Yi was a little distraught, Long Jun said again: "Are you still thinking about the little girl just now?"

Ding Yi said honestly: "I really want to, but ...... But we are never people of the same world, looking at what she wears, she must be a famous family, and we can't be together......"

"A man is a man in the world, there is no way to do it, only dare or not, as long as he thinks it is right, he should do it...... Yue Fan walked out of the shadows.

"Master!" Long Jun and Ding Yi said in unison.

Yue Fan nodded and said, "I know everything about what happened just now......

"Master...... I ......" Ding Yi couldn't say a word for a long time.

Yue Fan looked at Ding Yi and said seriously: "Tianxingjian, men should strive for self-improvement." Remember that there is nothing in the world that can make you feel inferior. ”

"Nothing can make you feel inferior. Long Jun and Ding Yi's bodies trembled slightly, and their hearts were unspeakable.

The two of them have been orphans since they were children, without the love of their relatives, and have suffered a lot of humiliation. Although the character is unyielding, the seeds of low self-esteem are buried deep in their hearts. But Yue Fan's words touched their hearts, which is not only a simple encouragement and support, but also an invisible confidence and care, which is enough for them to support the strength in their hearts at any time.

"Thank you, Master!" Long Jun and Ding Yi bowed deeply to Yue Fan.

Yue Fan said lightly: "Sometimes, you don't need to express your gratitude, as long as you can really understand!"

"Yes! ”

Yue Fan nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go to the inn to eat something first." ”

"Wait!" Yue Fan was just about to leave, but Long Jun hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master, you haven't walked the rivers and lakes before, have you?" Although it was a question, Long Jun had a very positive expression.

Sure enough, Yue Fan nodded and said, "I'm not from the rivers and lakes." ”

Long Jun smiled and said, "Master, after all, Xiao Nail and I are also people who have traveled south and north for many years, let me tell you the 'first priority' of walking the rivers and lakes!"

Yue Fan was puzzled: "What is the 'first want'?"

Long Jun and Ding Yi looked at each other and said in unison: "You want to save face!"

"So what?" Yue Fan wondered.

Long Jun pulled his torn clothes and said, "Master, we have stinking and stolen goods, it will be very shameless to eat like this, and those snobs will not receive us." ”

"Yes!" Ding Yi continued, "Why don't we go and change our clothes first?!"

"Uh!" Yue Fan looked at himself, none of the clothes on his body were intact, and said with a wry smile in his heart: "It's worse than a beggar, you should go and change your clothes first." ”

"Ahem, ahem......" Yue Fan coughed dryly and said, "Let's go!"

"Haha-"

Seeing Yue Fan so embarrassed, Long Jun and Ding Yi couldn't help laughing.

......

―――――――――――― is setting in the west.

In Xiangyang City, in an old clothing store, the middle-aged boss is on the counter, dozing off, and no one usually comes to the door at this time.

But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock, knock, knock......"

"Who?"

The sudden knock on the door woke up the dreaming boss, who rubbed his eyes lazily, but it was three beggars dressed in tatters, and there was a stench of smoke on their bodies.

But the boss didn't pay much attention to this, because his eyes were looking straight at the gold leaf dangling in the hand of a little beggar.

"What a dazzling, what a beautiful leaf!" the boss praised in his heart.

"Three sets of clothes per person and a place to wash us. Long Jun put a piece of gold leaf on the table and walked towards the inner hall with Yue Fan and Ding Yi.

"Yes, yes......" The boss came to his senses, grabbed the gold leaf, looked at it carefully, put it in his mouth and bit it, and finally put it into his arms with a happy face.

"Little dog, hurry up and entertain the guests......" The boss shouted as he stepped forward to prepare himself.

......

After a ――――――――――――, three men walked out of an old clothing store and walked up in good spirits.

The person in the middle has a cold and resolute face, and his deep eyes give people sharpness. With a height of more than seven feet and a well-proportioned figure, he can be described as tall and extraordinary. In the hot season, he wraps his whole body in a black coat, which looks very dazzling, but when combined with his white hair, it gives people a sense of mystery and calmness. This person is Yue Fan after tidying up.

The head on the left is Qi Yuefan's shoulders, tall and lean. Dressed in white, the sleeves were gently rolled up, and his black hair was tied behind his head, looking a little chic. Junxiu's face has a pair of bright eyes, always revealing cleverness, but there is a hint of an evil smile on the corner of his mouth that does not match his age, this person is the elf's eccentric Long Jun. Sure enough, people rely on clothes, and I didn't expect that the little beggar who was sloppy just now suddenly became a handsome little boy.

On Yue Fan's right is Ding Yi with an honest face. After many days of exercise, his figure became burly and sturdy, dressed in blue, with black hair tied to his shoulders, looking dry and full. With a resolute face, a pair of divine eyes, and a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, he showed the temperament of a little man.

"It's different to take a shower and change into new clothes!" Out of the clothing store, Long Jun sighed: "Master, you are so handsome! If I had your white hair, I would have to kill thousands of girls." Hey, hey!"

"yes, yes. Ding Yi straightened his head and agreed.

"Bang!", "Bang!......

Yue Fan knocked on the heads of the two of them, and said angrily: "Nonsense!"

Long Jun corrected: "I'm telling the truth. ”

Yue Fan didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and muttered, "Are you sure your method is effective?"

Long Jun straightened his chest and smiled confidently: "Master, don't worry, the last time we rescued you, it was late at night, and Che looked sloppy, absolutely no one can see our appearance clearly, so as long as you cover yourself up." ”

"it! Let's find a place to eat. ”

Ding Yi was already hungry, and couldn't help but nag.

"Let's go......" Yue Fan nodded, reached to the back of his neck, covered his white hair with a bucket, and then walked forward.

......

The sun has set.

Although Xiangyang Castle is not a big city, it is very popular, and although it is evening, the city is still a lively scene. The brick and stone streets are wide and atmospheric, and the roads are brightly lit and full of people. It's just that every passerby came and went in a hurry, and there was a little more seriousness on their faces.

Yue Fan and the three of them didn't know the way, so they had to find someone to inquire about the best restaurant here. Fortunately, no one paid attention to them, but it also made them secretly relieved. Some people, they are not afraid of things or death, but they are afraid of trouble.

After many inquiries, there was finally a consistent goal.

The three of them crossed a bluestone path, a gorgeous attic was presented in front of them, the courtyard guests were endless, and the words "Tianxiang Building" were written on the pillars of the pavilion were elegant and beautiful.

"Wow! What they said is true, this 'Tianxianglou' is really the best wine cuddle in Xiangyang. Just look at the outside, you can know that this fragrant fragrance and this magnificent appearance...... Haha! It's good to have money!"

"Haha...... Damn, if you don't try to support yourself today, I'm really sorry for the belly that has been with me for more than ten years. ”

"Let's go!" Long Jun and Ding Yi cheered, and then rushed over, leaving even Yue Fan behind.

Suddenly, a brightly dressed middle-aged woman stopped the two outside the pavilion door and said in a flattering voice, "Yo!

Long Jun and Ding Yi rushed to the door of the pavilion, and were just about to go in, but they were stopped by a middle-aged woman with a thick face, and they were immediately furious.

Ding Yi asked angrily, "You can't eat and drink here?"

The woman in thick clothes replied, "Of course, the wine here is famous." ”

Ding Yi asked again: "Then you don't accept guests?"

The woman in thick clothes said: "Pick it up, we take classes here every day, especially at night." ”

Long Jun continued: "Then why don't you let us in?

"Look at what you said. The woman in thick clothes laughed and said, "I'm afraid that you are too young, and when your adults know that you are here, I will have to spank you......"

At this time, Yue Fan also walked up and said directly: "I agreed." Let's go, let's go!" said and led Long Jun and the two to the attic.

Seeing that Yue Fan was tall and wrapped in a black dress, it was very mysterious, and there were bursts of cold air on her body, so she naturally didn't dare to offend, so she had to get out of the way. After the three of them entered, they came back to their senses and muttered: "There are still people who bring their children to visit the Qinglou, the forest is really big, and there are all kinds of birds!"

......

"Master Hong, come, have another drink. ”

"I haven't been here for a few days, so you have to accompany me tonight!"

"Giggle...... The slave family must serve the master well!"

......

"Boss Zhang, do you think Xiaoyu is beautiful today?"

"My little beauty, you are the most beautiful!

......

As soon as Yue Fan and the three of them entered the pavilion, they felt that their eyes lit up.

The pavilion is a two-storey pavilion with gorgeous and cluttered decorations, giving it a sense of luxury and luxury. The splendid hall is full of laughter, colorful clothes fluttering and skirts flying, and there are more than a dozen women in the center playing ancient music, which makes people feel a little floating in the clouds.

"Groove cake!"

Long Jun suddenly exclaimed, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he secretly said in his heart: "It's dead, it's dead, it's going to be dead this time!"

Yue Fan and Ding Yi were stunned and looked at Long Jun together.

"What's wrong?" Ding Yi wondered.

Long Jun's face was flushed, and he was trying to convey his eyes.

Ding Yi looked around......

"Ahh

With an exclamation, Ding Yi hurriedly covered his mouth, his eyes full of surprise.

Seeing this, Yue Fan scolded, "What are you two doing?"

"Division...... Master ......" Ding Yi said hesitantly: "This is not a restaurant......

"What is not a restaurant?" asked Yue Fan.

Ding Yi was silent and looked straight at Long Jun. In the end, Long Jun couldn't, so he had to lower his head and say embarrassedly: "This ...... "The voice of the ......voice is so small, if it weren't for Yue Fan's excellent hearing, I'm afraid I wouldn't know what he was talking about."

"No wonder I think this restaurant is weird. Yue Fan said indifferently: "Then is there anything to eat here?"

"Huh!?" Long Jun and Ding Yi didn't expect Yue Fan to be so calm, they forgot to reply for a while, and stood stunned.

"Is there anything to eat?" Yue Fan asked again.

"Yes!" Long Jun and Ding Yili hurriedly replied loudly.

At this time, the old bustard of the Qinglou stepped forward and greeted warmly: "Yo! The three officials are very angry, let's come for the first time!? It doesn't matter, once you are born and twice mature, you will not get lost in the third and fourth times, our girl here is well-known from afar......"

Yue Fan interrupted: "You prepare something delicious for us first." ”

Long Jun hurriedly threw a piece of silver to the old bustard, urging, "Hurry up!"

The old bustard in the Qinglou has always recognized money but not people, and when he saw Yinzi's eyes shining, he hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I'll ask someone to prepare to go." Uncle, please!" said and led the person to the pavilion.
