Chapter 1, Section 1, Punish Ghosts and Collect Servants 002

The clouds cover it, the sunset moves westward, and the clouds in the west are as colorful as fire, and the sky will change color. Another gust of wind blew the cold of pedestrians, and the gray and hard loess road was even more dusty.

The man was sleepy and hungry, and he had been running for a day. The black and white eagles have long been hungry, dry food, water, wine, although it is the virtue of the county lord, so that people have specially prepared double portions for the two of them, they have already eaten and drunk; even Gong Ming's share has been snatched and eaten; just because the two of them are afraid of the jokes of the county lord and the girls, so they have been forbearing.

Now I can hear Gong Ming boasting about how he stole into the palace last time, and how the stolen tribute wine was pure and refreshing, I can't help but have a dry throat and a dry heart, and my heart is very difficult, like a hundred claws scratching my heart. The expression on his face is volatile, his eyebrows are panting, his cheeks are biting his lips, and his chest is rising and falling sharply.

The black and white eagles have a spirit in their hearts, and the two of them have a pair of eyes, and at the same time they pull the reins and stop the horse. The two of them saw that it was not too early, and it was indeed time for the tooth filling sacrifice, and the alcohol addiction in their hearts had risen again, and they couldn't care much about it.

Gong Mingsheng's surname is lively, knowing that the two grandfathers are impatient and lonely, they will burn at one point, and they want to pick the Mars of the two masters, so that everyone will be happy, adjust the fatigue and boredom on the road, and they are only worried about boasting about the gods, still on top of the excitement, and they have not noticed the slight actions of the two in front of them, and they are not careful, and they almost hit the ponytail of the two.

"What, what are you doing, I said the two masters?" Gong Ming hurriedly reined in his horse, and immediately stood up straight, with a puzzled face, and asked a hundred unhappily: "How, why don't you leave?"

The eagle turned back and winked at him, opened his mouth, stopped talking, smiled, and then turned his head to ignore him. said in my heart, stinky junior, turtle junior, pick the wine worms of our brothers, you can't die well, I have to get drunk tonight, wait, you have a good look. The two secretly glanced at each other again, and they had already made up their minds to take revenge.

Gong Ming wondered: Hey, aren't these two noble uncles going to smoke again? Why don't they scream at people? It's unusual, can't it be some bad calculation. I'll have to be more careful.

Of course, Xiao San knows the roots of the two eagles, although they are clear about each other's master and servant, they have a deep friendship. How can the three of them be childlike and young, and they often love to laugh and fight.

A little, the two eagles rolled their eyes, looked at each other, pulled the reins off the horse's head, and didn't look at Gong Ming with their eyes, pouted and raised their eyebrows, and passed over Gong Ming.

Gong Ming was inexplicable, and he immediately turned around in surprise and turned his head to look.

Black Eagle urged the horse to slowly come to Lu Qian, his eyes narrowed, the corners of his mouth curled, he spread his hands, smiled, and shouted: "Big brother, master, the great Bodhisattva who saves the suffering and rescues the suffering, the great good man, people are about to starve to death here, there is no dry food, wine is also available, take some here, or water." ”

The great monk's surname is generous, and the monks do not want to be embarrassed by others, so he smiles slightly, spreads his hands, and recites Amitabha Buddha.

Lu Qian is easy-going, and he knows that these two righteous brothers often have no rules, and they are good at playing tricks on people, and they are repeatedly deceived by losses.

The black eagle stretched out his hand and waited for a long time, his eyes rolled and he gasped, but he didn't know that the eldest brother was indifferent, laughing and silent, and he didn't care about himself, so he exhaled angrily: "You are a stinky monk, a fake monk who pretends to be a true monk, what is fake is fake, and it will never be true." Hmph, without the slightest merit and compassion, unless the Buddha is blind, how can he accept such a hypocritical and righteous monk as you? What about the dry food and wine that the monk does not speak and deceives people? Mr. Hua's share seems to have been given to you as well! How can a monk be so greedy for enjoyment!

When the black eagle god shouted, he still didn't forget to cast a knowing smile at Mr. Chaohua. Hua Shi'an shrugged silently in embarrassment.

Lu Qian smiled and said: "Second brother, making fun of the eldest brother is a small matter, how can he open his mouth to insult the Buddha, who doesn't know that there is a god three feet above his head! ”

Black Eagle shouted, "Stinky monk, fake monk." Why are you so nagging, don't give it, what is the high!" As he spoke, the Black Eagle turned around and raised his finger to poke Gong Ming's mount's buttocks, as fast as lightning.

The horse was frightened and sprang forward. Xiao San didn't fall off, and hurriedly leaned forward to comfort the mount.

Ren Tianqi also stopped the horse when he heard the sound, knowing that it was lively again, he glanced at the front and back, turned around and looked back, smiled at Gong Ming, who had a stiff expression on his face, and scolded with a smile, "Little San, what are you bragging about to make the third master, and the fourth master is not good? If you walk well and don't make some tricks, you won't be able to calm your nerves? Look at your virtue, when you can have a serious appearance, but you may not have to make progress! You have to get home, the old lady will give you some family methods to try." ”

Hearing this, Gong Ming hurriedly pulled the saddle and jumped off the horse, and Lehehe stepped forward and said: "You don't have to trouble the old lady, just your little one has already become a Buddha." But no, isn't the little one afraid that our two masters will be bored on the road, have no energy, fall asleep and fall off the horse and hurt their necks? Aren't I good for the two masters? No, I'm reminiscing about the last time I went to the Dadu Palace to steal tribute wine for the master to drink, and I'm telling the two masters; where did I expect that this master under the ass is not easy to serve, he seems to be hungry, and if he is unhappy and unsatisfactory, he will pick up his hooves, and this is not even a little broken!"

Shuangying knew that Xiao San was talking about himself, but he turned a deaf ear and was calm. Ren Tianqi also knew that Xiao San could speak well, he had no size, and he didn't bother to bother with him, so he didn't say anything, just looked at a few people.

A little red sat on the horse, and he had already retracted his thoughts, opened the paper fan in his hand with a "snap", shook it a few times, and looked at the few people in front of him with a smile. It turns out that this bickering is such a wonderful thing. This side is calm and relaxed, and the other side is arguing.

Mr. Hua had already set his sights on this side, listened with his ears pricked up, and said to himself with a smile: "The Buddha sits on his head, and Pepsi does not speak." Chickens and ducks pass in front of the door, and when will they rest. ”

Ren Mingquan smiled when he heard this, turned his head and stretched out his thumb to Mr. Hua.

The girls in the back couldn't laugh when they heard it, and they were all beautiful.

The white eagle kept past everyone, came to the county lord's car, sat down, ----- Dongxue to the slightly fat woman, leaned forward, raised his eyebrows, coughed slightly, and laughed softly: "There is a girl Lao Dongxue." The young master of Fang Cai ordered, please ask the girl to inquire about the county lord, are you thirsty, are you hungry, do you want to use some fruit water now, and pay for it for the time being?"

On the right, I saw a slightly fatter girl, Dongxue, fifteen or sixteen years old, with a square face and red lips, apricot eyebrows and curved eyes, flickering phoenix eyes, white Zhe skin, spacious eyebrows, and a peaceful face. Dong Xue is the personal maid of the county lord, and she is the head of the four maidservants.

Dong Xue was busy getting up and returning the salute immediately, and said with a smile: "Hey, the fourth master is polite, this girl is a little girl." Taking care of my county lord is our business, how dare you have the heart of a tired horse. But the little woman doesn't seem to have her ears back, why didn't she hear what our master said! The little woman just heard that the chickens and ducks passed in front of the door, and when would they rest? "Otherwise, ask my county lord!"

The white eagle put his two big hands together, rubbed them uneasily, laughed in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "The girls are not talking and laughing, maybe they are listening to it, so please ask." ”

As soon as the words fell, the warbler in the car paused, and a person chuckled: "Thank you Fourth Brother for your concern." Dongxue, how can you embarrass our fourth master? No big or small, I don't know if our fourth master is straightforward and anxious? Where is the reason for you to mix and laugh! Besides, the hour is not early, you should also go to the back car to get some sweet dates and wine from the Daimyo's mansion, and add up to everyone. I also felt a little hungry. The third master and the fourth master and our grandfather have a large belly, don't forget to take more, Mr. Hua is polite, don't be slow. ”

The person in the car changed his words and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you are too outward." My own brothers, wine is not a vital thing, what is in the car, what is divided into each other's, what is missing, just go and get it yourself, and then call a few girls to get it, and you have to come over to run errands and pass the word, if this is heard by outsiders, don't you say that I am a little child? Say that I am harsh on my uncles? ”

A little girl next to her pouted and said softly: "What's the matter, don't let people speak yet? I'm afraid of things before I enter the door, just my uncle's length, and our sisters don't have a good time to cross the ground!"

Dongxue was stunned when she heard this, and glanced at the girl. The little girl stuck out her tongue, looked up at Ren Tianqi, and saw that Ren Tianqi was smiling, casting an approving gaze, her cheeks were red, and she was busy hanging down the citron mite, groping for the ornaments on her waist.

"Thank you, Lord Shiren. The White Eagle smiled, stuck out his tongue, blushed, turned back to the Black Eagle Wei Yingqian and raised his eyebrows, turned around and bent down to get off the horse, pulled Mr. Hua's reins, and led the horse to the side of the road to find flat land. He didn't want to talk much with the county lord, firstly, when he got along, he was still young and not very familiar; first, the county lord and Ren Tianqi had not yet married, and he said that he could not call himself the eldest uncle, and firstly, the white eagle had never spoken much to a woman in his life, and his heart was restless as soon as he opened his mouth, not to mention that there were four clever and eloquent little girls around the county lord.

A little red turned his head and smiled at Ren Tianqi: "Look, look at the fourth child, there are people who can control it from now on, and he is the only one who is afraid of our county lord." But one is really stronger than the other, and they are all afraid of doing the wrong thing and saying the wrong thing. Brother, you are really blessed!" A little red turned his head to look at Dongxue.

Ren Tianqi nodded with a smile, gestured at the black eagle standing in front of the horse, and said with a smile: "Third brother, don't be angry, get off the horse and drink some wine to warm up." ”

Black Eagle had already heard the county lord's words, where could he still listen to Ren Tianqi's words, urged the horse, caught up with his brother White Eagle and Mr. Hua, and stayed aside. I don't want to see a few masters here.

Ren Tianqi smiled and shrugged his shoulders at the two righteous brothers.

And all the people dismounted, and drove the chariots and horses to one place. The four maids were busy fetching water and food, while the four servants were busy checking the chariots, horses, wheels, and even the saddles.

The county lord also rolled up the window towels on both sides to ventilate; it was windy and dusty outside, and it was cold, so the county lord did not get out of the car, but just drank a few sips of wine, ate two dates, and walked back and forth in the car, lively hands and feet, and when he saw that he was warm, he took the book and read it in the car. After a while, he said through the curtain: "Winter snow, don't forget to feed the horses some wine." ”

Dong Xue smiled: "It's being used, Miss is relieved." ”

The thousand-handed scholar saw that everyone was resting, and he saw a strange short, fat man in red not far away, although he also dismounted to drink water and eat dry food, but his eyes looked here from time to time, and a trace of ominousness passed in his heart. The Thousand-Handed Scholar knew that this person had been traveling with him along the way for four days, and if he was about to leave, he was by no means a good person. It's not that he's worried about what kind of thieves are coming, it's just that he's worried about what's right and wrong, and he's afraid of disturbing the peace of several girls, so he thinks about it.

Here, Mr. Hua limped up, feeling that his legs and feet were really a little problematic, and the problem was not small. I saw him step forward, bow deeply to the man in red, and ask slowly: "This big brother, may I ask if this road is the only way to Yangzhou?" Before he finished speaking, a piece of broken silver fell out of his arms.

The man in red on the opposite side was shocked when he saw someone coming up here, and was about to pull away from it, but he saw that someone had come to ask for directions, and something had fallen. He hurriedly stepped forward and stepped on the broken silver ingots that Mr. Hua had dropped, stretched out his hands to help Mr. Hua, and said with a smile: "Brother Tai, brother Tai, the etiquette is heavy, the etiquette is heavy, this is the only place to go to Yangzhou." ”

Mr. Hua thanked him again and said cautiously: "Dare to ask Brother Tai, is it safe on the way here?"

The man in red blushed, his eyes were shining, he laughed, patted his chest and said loudly: "No, if there is, I would have killed all the golden dogs a long time ago." The people of this land are not robbers, and they are very peaceful. Brother, please put a hundred hearts. ”

The man smiled and looked up and glanced at Ren Tianqi and the others behind him.

Mr. Hua bowed and bowed, sighed, and said with a smile: "This is good, this is good, no robbers are good, our horses and carts are safe, horses are all good horses that travel thousands of miles, and the cars are Qixiang treasure cars, which are precious! Hey, this soldier is in chaos, and I am afraid to see people every day!" After saying that, he thanked Fang again and walked back slowly.

The big man in red stared at Mr. Hua's back with wide eyes, and was stunned. "Seven spice treasure car, the car is bleeding for a hundred miles", the rivers and lakes are spreading. He was surprised for a long time, not knowing whether he was too excited or suspicious of his ears, and only after a long time did he come back to his senses, pretend to arrange his shoes, bend down and pick up the broken silver ingot on the ground.

After a while, everyone got up and packed up their things and was about to set off, and the man was busy getting on his horse and galloping away.

The thousand-armed scholar looked at his distant back, shook his fan and moved his mouth to Ren Tianqi, and smiled: "Brother Xian, it seems that this place cannot be delayed for a long time. I didn't expect that this was almost home, but there were still friends who were willing to appreciate their faces, and they were going to think about us. ”

Ren Tianqi understood, smiled disapprerovingly, and said: "Some little thieves who have never seen the world, don't care about them, it's just killing themselves." No, the night is coming, so let's ask the whole housekeeper to take care of it before, Xiaosan, you went one mile before, let's follow, let's hurry as usual. ”

Mr. Hua raised his hand and threw a money bag to Gong Ming, and said with a smile: "Master Ming, give it, look at my ability to lead sheep?"

Xiao San raised his hand to take it and said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Hua's luck is getting better and better, and tonight's expenses are settled." ”

Mr. Hua smiled, frowned, and said, "In this way, this is not an ordinary thief, but I am afraid that he will not die of greed!"

Xiao San smiled and said: "No! The Seven Spice Treasure Car is so conspicuous, no one will knowingly commit a crime, isn't it self-seeking!

A little red "whoosh" put the fan in his hand, looked at the thief far away, and said with an absent-minded smile: "It's a good thing that some people are worried about us, our skills are old and immobile, and we are still a little rusty, so we just took the opportunity to practice." A little red still glanced at the busy women intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "I wonder if Dongxue is okay?"

Ren Tianqi snorted, glanced at the back of the man in red, got up and put on leather gloves, took the long sword handed by Gong Ming, recognized the horse, turned his head and glanced at the winter snow that was walking over, and said loudly: "Let's see if the county lord has any additional orders, if not, please get in the car and hurry."

Several people parted ways.

The horse team hits the road.
