Chapter 147
The next day, I saw a herd of cattle and sheep with hundreds of them, and after waiting for a long time, no one came to catch them, and everyone was so hungry that they simply killed a sheep and set up a fire, roasted and ate, and ate and slept to their heart's content.
In this way, the six men drove the cattle and sheep on their way north, and one day they found a dying strong man in the grass, and Huzha recognized him as a native of Tulun, and hurriedly lifted him up and milked him to quench his thirst. After asking, I learned that a few days ago, Nurhachi instigated a large army to wash the city of Tulum in blood, and the Tulons died under Nurhachi's saber nine times out of ten.
Six people hastily dug a pit and buried this person and then continued to go north, hungry slaughtered sheep, hungry slaughtered cattle, ate and slept in the open, and worked hard, and waited until Hu'er Haiwei had traveled for more than two months, and they had become half-called children, not a person. Tuna's family was very happy to see their daughter bring the young master back, and when they heard about the intention, they inevitably wept bitterly for the misfortune of Nikan Wailan's family, and then asked Jia Mu'an to wash and eat, sleep and rest. Tuna had no intention of resting after dinner, and dragged her brother Hulatu into the city to inquire, and found the first master of the Haixi Jurchen Division, Gamula Chi, only to know that this person was not Nanlongtou's apprentice.
Gamurachi was in his fifties, of medium height, with a burly and majestic build, his eyes were piercing, and he sat cross-legged on a blanket in a fur hat and a leather jacket and leather boots. After hearing what the comer was thinking, this Gamulachi's eyes looked at Tuna several times, and he couldn't help but say: "I have been to Tulun City, and I have seen Nikan Wailan, and this person said that he could not hold it to heaven, and that he could not go to hell if he said that he would not be able to go to hell, and it was really sad to say that his family had suffered such a catastrophe. Since his son came to the door to learn art, how could he not teach, but the girl in front of him was so delicate, like a flower, it would be a pity not to pick it, it was better to take the opportunity to make it difficult for her, and see how she replied to me. ”
Thinking about it, he smiled, pointed to the stool and asked the Tuna brothers and sisters to sit down. "Since it was the Tulun city lord's family that had an accident, his son came from afar to learn art and take revenge. This is enough to see that this Jia Mu'an's backbone is extraordinary. It will be a great thing to come. It's just that you have to worship under my door to learn art, and you have to give a great gift to the teacher, a hundred fat sheep, and fifty strong cattle. Camel Ten Peaks. What do you see?" said with a wicked smile. If Tuna doesn't listen, just don't listen. Hearing this, he was dumbfounded, and said in his heart: "That herd of cattle and sheep rushed from Tulum to Hu'er Haiwei and slaughtered them. Lost, killed, killed, only forty fat sheep at home, at most a dozen strong cattle, not to mention where the shadow of the camel is, it seems that the apprenticeship is no fun, it is better to go home and discuss with Jia Mu'an, Lamu, choose a day to go to the customs to take a walk, even if you sell yourself, let Jia Mu'an worship a good master, kill Nurhachi after the art is completed, and avenge the city lord Fujin and them. When he thought about it, he retreated, and got up and was about to say goodbye, but he heard Gamurachi say, "Stay." As if there was still room for negotiation, his heart naturally heated and sat down again, listening to what he had to say. "Look at the girl's face, it must not be enough to make up for the apprenticeship, but this matter has not come to an end, you and I can still discuss, find a way that is acceptable to both parties, but I am afraid that the girl will not be willing. ”
Tuna is also a sensible person, and when she heard that there was still hope, how could she miss it lightly, so she hurriedly asked softly: "Can you tell me what the way is?" As long as it is beneficial to my young master, maybe I will be happy to accept it." ”
Gamurachi smiled treacherously, glancing at Huratu and shaking out his thoughts to Tuna. "Let's tell the truth, I was widowed ten years ago, and I haven't renewed the string, now I see the girl so loyal to the Lord, my heart is really moved, I think the girl is also a virtuous person, if you are willing to marry me, the three of them are not only exempt from the ceremony, I also sent 100 fat sheep, 20 strong cattle as a marriage proposal, send someone to your house on the same day, and then marry grandly, never lose your family, I don't know what the girl wants?" Tuna did not answer immediately, but thought in her heart:" I had already been sold to Jiamu'an's family as a slave, and I was already a member of Jiamu'an's family, and now I want Jiamu'an to learn kung fu and avenge my master's hatred, so why give up my own hatred? Not to mention that this Gamulachi is also a big family in Haiwei, and his reputation is out, and it is also a blessing for me to marry him, so I don't have to worry about it in the future. Besides, there are more cattle and sheep in the family, and Hurathu will not worry about not being able to marry a good wife, even the second brother Hulahan's dowry has also been settled, which is not a matter of killing four birds with one stone. Thinking of this, his heart swelled, his face was embarrassed and his eyebrows were raised, and he nodded to Gamurachi in response.
Seeing Tuna's approval, Gamula Chi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly called the housekeeper loudly, and asked him to choose a hundred fat sheep, twenty strong oxen, and a camel, all of which were put on red cloth and silk for the Hurathu brothers and sisters to rush home, and then asked someone to choose an auspicious day for the zodiac to marry, and sent someone to decorate the house, and then to marry Tuna, and then taste the blessing of hugging his wife and cotton.
The Hulatu brothers and sisters drove a large herd of cattle and sheep back to their home, and the mother listened to her daughter's words, and naturally she was overjoyed. Seeing that Tu Na was sad for several days, he secretly dragged her out of the house and asked puzzledly: "My apprenticeship has been completed, and you are going to marry my master, everyone is happy, why are you not happy?" Tuna will not fake, and is busy giving her heart to Jia Mu'an. "Young master, as soon as you apprentice and leave, I will marry again, and the eldest brother and second brother will also marry a wife and start a business, and in the future, my mother will be left alone at home, so I am anxious and unhappy. Only then did Jia Mu'an understand Tuna's thoughts, and immediately said happily: "What's so difficult about this." My master has a good character, treats people kindly, and his hands are diligent, and he has never renewed the strings after his wife's death, so it is better for you to become one family, and you will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future. ”
Seeing that Tuna smiled and applauded when she heard this, she immediately dragged her back to the house and said her thoughts in front of everyone. Seeing the two old men sitting at each other without saying a word, everyone was even more happy, busy killing sheep and slaughtering cattle, drinking happily, like a festival, and making trouble all night without closing their eyes. Hurathu has already been with the neighboring village of Tandama girl, just because the family is poor can not get the dowry of the proposal, the marriage has been put on hold for two years, now there are cattle and sheep, and the mother has a future to rely on, the next day anxiously drove twenty fat sheep, three strong cattle out of the door, joyfully rushed to the neighboring village to propose.
With a virtuous and kind wife, Lamuwei is naturally much more diligent. Today he plans to get married, and tomorrow he is busy arranging new houses in Huratu and Huzha like a strong ox. Seeing that the auspicious day was approaching, she slaughtered cattle and sheep, sweating profusely, and saw that Tuna's mother couldn't say anything sweetly in her heart. And Jiamu'an and Huqin, Huzha and Gonglan, as well as the Hurathu brothers and sisters, only hoped that the auspicious day would come to the night of the candle in Etu, but they were worried about killing Hulahan.
Half a moon passed in a blink of an eye, and it was an auspicious day. Jiamu'an apprenticeship. Tuna got married, Hulatu greeted her family, Jia Mu'an, Huqin. Huza. Gonglan tied the knot, and these five joys were happy. It was also lively for three days and three nights, Nanlongtou brought a group of apprentices to congratulate him, and Aliba Xiao also gave Jia Mu'an a seventy-two pound iron rod. Since marrying Tuna. Gamulachi naturally obeyed the rules a lot, except for greedy for a few more glasses of wine, he no longer went out to cause some trouble. Gamulachi supervised the eldest apprentice Dongye Zhan and the second apprentice Xu Hongru to practice during the day, and then they took turns to teach Jiamu'an, Huqin, and Huzha to practice martial arts.
Jiamu'an worships himself under the Gamula Chimen, with Tuna a hundred times care, and two senior brothers teaching kung fu outside, in order to avenge revenge as soon as possible, he naturally gets up early with Huqin and is greedy and diligent in studying and practicing hard, just hoping to learn a good martial arts as soon as possible, and go to Jianzhou to kill Nurhachi without mentioning.
The old monster of Changbai Mountain received the wedding card, only to know that the master was going to marry the eleventh wife, and he would also hold a banquet to hold a grand wedding for the other five masters, thinking that there must be many things to be busy before the marriage, so he summoned a group of junior brothers and sisters to Yangxiong's house in Taiyuan Prefecture. "Master is happy in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we will also have more masters. I thought that as an apprentice, I should also share something for the master, and then back up the generous gifts, so I asked you to come and discuss it. Zhang Shangdao: "On the way to come, I heard that the Central Plains Seven Heroes are preparing a generous gift, and presumably the Three Heroes of the Western Regions are also preparing for it.
Dear brothers and sisters, Master is also our three disciples. This time the master is married, and the apprentices will inevitably have to fight for face, and we can't lose to the Central Plains Qihao and the Three Masters of the Western Regions. Zhong Shun said: "This is natural, otherwise it would be too sorry for the master." Shi Shanzhu nodded and said: "Think about it, among these three apprentices, the Central Plains Qihao has not learned any kung fu, and the three heroes of the Western Regions have also learned the whirlwind gun and the mountain palm, but our senior brothers have already learned four sets of kung fu." Shi Shanzhu said: "In this way, among the three apprentices, the master hurts us the most.
If you lose to Qihao and Sanjie like this, you're too sorry for Master, don't be a man in the future. Bao Xin waved his hand and said: "Without further ado, there is still half a year before the Mid-Autumn Festival, with the ability of our people, we should be able to raise enough 10,000 taels of gold, 20 million taels of silver, four boxes of rare treasures, 100 pieces of Tang Sancai, and 50 celebrity calligraphy and paintings." In this way, if you think that the seven heroes and three heroes have no means to raise these treasures, then we won't have a face in front of the master and the master. ”
Hao Jiande clapped his hands and smiled: "Senior Brother Bao's words are very good, I will add a little more, and give each junior a few smart and clever maid rings, which will definitely be the icing on the cake and make the junior ladies happy." Yang Xiongle said: "Coincidentally, the shopkeeper of the horse market in Shunde Mansion also found thirty or forty charming girls from nowhere, all of whom are fourteen, fifteen or sixteen years old. Hmph, we just took the silver ticket in the arms of the rich man. Everyone said that it was wonderful, and after discussing it for a while, they all went out to each city to do those things that had no capital, and sent them to Qingzhou to honor their master and mother.
The words were not rambling, but they said that these gentlemen on the beam stepped on the point during the day and stole at night, and after twenty or thirty days of busy work, they drove the carriage to a large mansion in the south of Pingyang Mansion like a market. This mansion is the home of Shi Shanzhu, and since the death of seven of his father and brother at the hands of the five evils in the west, this house has also been taken over by him. He has to take care of his old mother's food for his four elder brothers' families, and he has to provide for his nine nephews and nieces to study and dress, and there are five maids and three subordinates at home. Shi's mother is also accustomed to her son's deeds, but she doesn't want so many people to come in recent days, but she is afraid that her son and his dog friends and fox friends have done something fatal outside, so she told her subordinates to look at the door, don't let outsiders touch something and tell the yamen, then the Shi family will be miserable this time. When Bao Xin, Yang Xiong, Ding Yue, and Mei Ying came to Pingyang with forty Mei Yan Yahuan, the thirty-three brothers and sisters all arrived at the Shi family.
The old monster of Changbai Mountain summoned everyone to the guest hall, each person reported the number, put the silver ticket on the table, and the stolen things were piled up in one place in total, the silver ticket was 4,738,000 taels, the silver was 214,000 taels, the gold was 2,963 taels, all kinds of treasures were packed in more than six boxes, Tang Sancai 187 pieces, 314 celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and 40 charming girl rings. "Yes, yes, now we have faces. ”
The old monster of Changbai Mountain was very excited, and put four and a half million taels of silver tickets into a brocade box, two hundred thousand taels of silver into ten boxes, five boxes of rare treasures, one hundred and eighty pieces of Tang Sancai, and three hundred paintings of celebrities, and then asked Shi Shanzhu to take out some gold at home to make up the whole number of three thousand taels, and then said: "The remaining silver tickets and cash silver are kept by our brothers, and the rest are all given to Senior Brother Shi's family, everyone has no idea, right?" Zheng Min smiled: "It's all my own junior brothers, so what do you think." Shi Shanzhu shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate." I've made a lot of money by taking a box of rare treasures, and I've brought the rest of our brothers and sisters with me. Shi Mu listened to it and asked her son curiously. “
Shanzhu, you used to want to move all the gold and silver treasures in the world home, but today someone else gave it to you, why don't you want it, tell your mother about it. Shi Shanzhu said hehehe: "Mother, my son is now a person with a master, these are my senior brothers, and my son has also begun to learn to get better, so he is not as greedy as in the past." Shi Mule said: "If you say so, my mother will understand."
But you're thirty-seven, why don't you bring your daughter-in-law back to let your mother be happy. Hearing what his mother said, Shi Shanzhu glanced at Ding Yue and said to his mother: "Mother, the master has told me about my daughter-in-law, and I will get married next year." Seeing that Shi Mu was a little unconvinced, the old monster of Changbai Mountain hurriedly got up and pushed Ding Yue in front of Shi Mu and smiled: "Look, this is your old daughter-in-law." Shi Mu saw that Ding Yue looked very charming, so she didn't believe it even more. "You have joined forces to deceive me. Ding Yue hurriedly said: "Mother, no one lied to you, Master married me to Senior Brother Shi." The master also said that when the time comes, he will go to the five evils in the west to avenge the Shi family. Hearing this, and seeing everyone nodding, Shi Mu believed it, and immediately cried to her son in tears: "This is really the ancestor of the Shi family, let you bump into such a good master, and promise your daughter-in-law, and avenge the Shi family, you have to listen to your master well, don't make your master angry." Shi Shanzhu's sister-in-law wiped a handful of tears and said, "Zhuzi, it seems that your master is a rare good person in the world. Alas, my sister-in-law didn't have anything to thank him, so she let Erfeng and Sanfeng come to his house and do some washing. Mei Ying hurriedly waved her hand and grinned: "No, no, no." There are hundreds of people in my master's family, how can you use your two phoenixes and three phoenixes. What's more, there are these forty charming rings. ”
In this way, after three days of preparation in Pingyang Mansion, the old monster of Changbai Mountain and his party were dressed in pale yellow satin, riding horses and holding yin and yang sticks, escorting twenty-eight carriages, containing forty-eight large boxes, and sitting on forty charming girls to leave the Shi family.
Soon arrived in Qingshan Town, asked the townsfolk to know that the master chased and killed the five monsters of Liaodong and has not returned, the master and they have all gone to Qingzhou Lonely Goose Mansion a few days ago, and the old monster of Changbai Mountain thanked Uncle Shen, and his younger brothers and sisters rode horses to Qingzhou City, and asked all the way to the gate of Lonely Goose Mansion. "Wow, that's magnificent. Hao Jiande looked at such a wide mansion door and was surprised, and Zhang Shang said: "This is worthy of my master's identity." (To be continued......)
