Chapter 13 The Old Man Doesn't Know Each Other
Yuan Zhen has been gone for three days.
On this day, Chen Huaji was drying herbs in front of the temple gate, and saw five people walking from the west from a distance, all of whom were eighteen or nineteen years old like him. Looking at the dress, it should be a teenager from a nearby village.
The five of them frolicked past the door, and when they saw Chen Hua dressed as a young Taoist priest and drying medicine alone, they shouted with a big grin: "Hey! Xiaodao! Have you seen my family's ploughing cattle?" Chen Hua didn't raise his head, and said: "I haven't seen it." "Still working with my head down.
"Yo, third brother, he doesn't dare to look at us, I think your cattle must have been stolen by this thief!" said one of them in a weird way.
"You little way, my old cow has been working hard for ten years but was stolen by you, today, you either give me a bullock, or take out ten hangs of the incense money in your temple as compensation!" The little hooligan led by the leader slanted the straw and said to Chen Hua and provoked.
Chen Huaji knew that these people were not good, so he still lowered his head and fiddled with the herbs, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't see any ploughing cattle, and I didn't have any money for you, you want to steal or rob, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place." ”
"Third brother, this kid toasts and doesn't eat and drink! He doesn't know your prestige in this ten miles and eight towns!" One person turned his head angrily to Chen Huaji and said, "This is Zhu Jiazhuang, Zhu Youcai, Zhu Third Brother, you kid has no eyes and no beads to recognize the true god, I don't blame you, quickly take out the money, so as not to be beaten by us!"
"Oh, Third Brother Zhu hasn't heard of it, but Zhu Bajie has heard of it. Chen Huahe said lightly, still not looking at these little rascals.
"Hey, thief, you call me a pig!" The leader was furious, spit out the straw in his mouth, rolled up his cuffs and stepped forward to beat.
After several years of intensive practice, Chen Huaji's divine sense is so sharp at this moment! He only felt the wind behind him, and he didn't look back, and his left shoulder subconsciously sank slightly before he easily dodged a punch.
The little hooligan Zhu Youcai, who was the leader, let out a "huh", and seemed to feel very strange that he missed a blow. Turning his head and shouting to a few other followers, "What are you doing in a daze?"
Chen Huahe heard this, his right hand "banged" on the stone slab drying the medicine, turned around and said slowly: "Enough, if you are hungry, there is porridge and rice on the stove over there, you can eat it." If you intend to rob, I advise you to turn back and don't be bored. After speaking, his eyes calmly swept over a few little rascals. It doesn't matter if you look at this, Chen Huaji's heart flashed back to the windy and snowy days when he and Li Wencheng first arrived at the foot of Yunmeng Mountain three years ago. In the past, the crazy uncle Mu Rentian stole millet and fought with Chen Hua and a few teenagers, aren't they just the little hooligans who robbed money in front of him!
However, when Chen Huahe recognized them, they didn't expect that the ragged and unkempt little Taoist priest in front of them was the handsome young Taoist priest in front of them. Zhu Youcai was stunned when he saw Chen Huahe, thinking that this little way was afraid, so he became even more arrogant and shouted: "Beat him!
"Wait!" Chen Huahe didn't wait for the crowd to pounce, hurriedly jumped out of the circle, learned the way Yuan Zhen usually spoke, and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, Third Brother Zhu! I heard that you are a good man in these ten miles and eight towns, why did you bully me like a scoundrel today?"
Zhu Youcai first heard Chen Hua and called him a good man, and his heart was happy. Later, he called him a scoundrel, and he couldn't help but be annoyed, and said: "I'm a scoundrel, and I'm bullying you today!"
Chen Huahe looked at their posture, and saw that Zhu Youcai's face was red and white for a while, and he knew in his heart that these people were not big evildoers, but they were young and neglected to discipline, and they were used to stealing and fighting in the township on weekdays. As for the past three years ago, Chen Huahe didn't remember the old grudges, and there was no obstacle in his heart. Moreover, if it weren't for the Mu people who came out of the sky to fight with them back then, Chen Huaji might not have the fate to meet the crazy uncle and worship Yuanzhen as a teacher.
Thinking of this, Chen Huaji smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zhu, although this temple is small, there are still some scattered silver. But even if you snatch the money away with your sloppy posture, I won't be convinced, won't it damage your prestige? Why don't we draw a Taoist competition, if you win, you can take all the money and goods in the temple, and I will never stop you! If you lose, several people will kneel down and kowtow to me three times, and call me a Taoist master! How about it?"
When Zhu Youcai heard this, he was furious and said: "Let your mother's bullshit go, kowtow to you, third brother, I'll beat you out of dry dung!"
Chen Huaji laughed and said: "It seems that your reputation as a good man is also self-proclaimed, but the five people are afraid of me, and they are scared when they hear the competition......
Zhu Youcai was even more annoyed, his eyes were about to erupt with fire, and he slapped his thigh and said: "Bastard thief is a bastard!
"If you lose, you have to kowtow three times to the winner, and call grandpa!" Chen Huaji said with a smile.
"What so much nonsense! knock and knock, scream!" Zhu Youcai yelled, "What kind of comparison?"
"Since Brother Zhu is a big hero and a hero, we naturally can't learn from hooligans fighting in the streets and alleys. Chen Hua said, "The competition is divided into two games, a literary fight and a blind fight. ”
When Zhu Youcai heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and scolded: "Let your mother's stinky fart! Third brother, I don't know a single big word, how can I fight with you! We still see the real chapter on our fists and feet, you and I fight alone!"
Chen Hua stroked his palms and laughed: "Hahaha! Brother Zhu doesn't know, I said that Wendou is hand-to-hand combat." It's just that unlike the hooligans who cast Wang Ba Punch, we stand still face to face, our feet can't move, and one person takes turns hitting each other with a punch until the opponent moves or admits defeat!"
Zhu Youcai heard Chen Huahe say this, and thought to himself, how can this thin and weak way stop me from punching! So he smiled and said: "This is the best! This is the best!
Chen Huaji said: "You and I blindfold our eyes with cloths, and the one who knocks down the other party in the dark wins." ”
Zhu Youcai laughed again: "Hahahaha! You stupid person, don't be beaten out of and pee by me!"
Chen Huaji continued: "The winner of both games wins, if one person wins one game......"
Zhu Youcai didn't wait for Chen Huahe to finish speaking, and hurriedly interjected: "If one person wins one game, it will be better than the third game, and in the third game, someone will either admit defeat or rest until death!"
"Third Brother Zhu, if you can't hold it during the competition, let the brothers do it for you! Kill this stinky boy!" said a follower.
"Let go of your mother's fart!" Zhu Youcai slapped the face of the servant who spoke, and the five fingerprints were clearly visible, "Will I not be able to beat him!"
Chen Huahe smiled, stood still in the open space in front of the temple, and said indifferently: "Brother Zhu, please." ”
