Chapter 26 The Tough Rouge Tiger
A carriage slowly walked out of the Rosefinch Gate, followed by a teenager riding a horse. The teenager wore a wide-edged bamboo hat woven with bamboo and bamboo leaves on his head, and a raincoat made of grass. The cold wind blew at him with rain and snow, and his face turned slightly red with cold. The wheels and horses' hoofs were crushed on the muddy road, making a rhythmic and dull sound. The man in the carriage coughed twice, and the teenager on the horse asked, "Master, do you want to stop for a while?" The man in the car said. No, where are we?"
The teenager looked around and said, "It's out of the Rosefinch Gate, and it's not far from the Longjin Bridge." The people in the car didn't say anything more.
If it is also a prosperous art on weekdays, especially when it comes to all kinds of snacks on the night market street, coupled with the transportation of the Huimin River, the villages and towns by the river are also prosperous, but today it is shrouded in rain and snow. This scene makes the master and apprentice on the road particularly depressed.
Walking on the arched Longjin Bridge, the Huimin River was still frozen. Under the arch of the bridge, most of them were merchant ships with grain or sundries with Jianghuai. The teenager riding on a horse looked to the southwest on the bridge arch, which was the traditional tower in the southwest. The teenager thought of Liang Yuexia. As Liang Yuexia said, his father Di Qing was framed.
Where will Liang Yuexia wait for the master and apprentice next to Di Qingwang? Where did she go during this period? Wang knew nothing about it.
Now Wang is even more at a loss. He inadvertently settled the marriage, but he doesn't know what Liang Yuexia thinks at all. At least during this period of time, Wang couldn't find her at all, and she didn't show up. Will she go to Chenzhou to wait for them? Wang Bian calculated the distance. Chenzhou is in Wanqiu County, not far from Bianjing. More than 300 miles away from Bianjing, Wang Bian really hopes to wear it back to 2012, and then wear it back with his own car. Even if you don't take the highway in the 21st century, it will take three or four hours to drive. But now, after more than 900 years of regression, he has walked more than 20 miles a day at the speed of finding their masters and apprentices. Wang is scared. Fortunately, after leaving Nanxun Gate, it was already sparsely populated. The coachman jumped into the car, whipped the horse, and speeded up slightly.
That night, they rested in the post hall along the way, and continued on their way the next morning. In the evening, they came to Weishi County. After entering the county, I found a mansion store to settle down temporarily. Wang saw that Di Qing was tired all the way, and his body was still weak, so he asked, "Teacher, it's better to rest for a day or two before leaving."
Di Qing sighed and said, "I don't know where I can see my girl. Horses also need to be resupply, and it's good to have a rest.
Wang said, "We walked for two days in a row and finally saw a decent county. Maybe the girl under the moon is waiting for us here."
Di Qing nodded and ordered Wang to walk around the street tomorrow and bring some wine on the way. He saw that Wang had been cold enough for the past two days. He could drink some warmth when he felt cold on the way. The king served Di Qing and drank the medicine. The master and apprentice said a few words and then fell asleep. Di Qing was weak and bumpy for two days and fell asleep after a while, but Wang couldn't sleep.
The bedside of the mansion shop was particularly hard, and the bottom was also thin, which made his waist sore. He turned his body back and just looked at Di Qing on the opposite side. He looked around the room again. This room is simple. There are two beds, and there is a table and two chairs by the window between the two beds. This pattern is a standard room. The lights in the room were turned off, but the moon was bright outside. It looks bleak in this winter night. The shadow of the tree on the window lattice shook, and the king's eyes suddenly widened. No, now the leaves have withered, and it is impossible for such a complete shadow of the tree to appear. What's more, when he entered the room, he saw it. There was no tree outside the window at all.
He was about to look carefully, but he heard Di Qing coughing again. Wang sat up and heard Di Qing say, "Story, wake you up."
Wang stood up and walked to the stove. Seeing that there was still some fire in the stove, he gathered the fire with a small hook by the stove and said, "Master, is it cold? Do you want to ask the store to add some coal?" With that, he turned around and looked out of the window.
Di Qing said, "No, you should go to bed, too. It's time to go."
Wang was stunned and asked, "Is it?" He wanted to say whether it would be the moon coming down, but he thought that even if Liang Yue had the skill of flying eaves and walls, he would not lie outside the window and peek at their masters and apprentices.
Di Qing said, "It's a pity that Lord Bao has a good intentions, but some things have been settled."
The king drilled back into the quilt and asked, "Where did the teacher say this?"
Di Qing said, "Do you know that there is a kind of pear in Chenzhou, which is called green sand rotten. There is a lot of bad luck in Chenzhou. Wang's audience was sad, but there was nothing he could do. He just hoped to find Liang Yuexia as soon as possible. First, their father and daughter were reunited, and second, they had Liang Yuexia's strange ability. At least they could make a prophetic decision.
Weishi County is not very big. It has slipped around in half a day. Except for the king of Bianjing, he will ask the shopkeeper if he can meet a fifteen or sixteen-year-year-old girl. She is quite handsome. I asked him one or two questions, and the store was happy with him. Wang knew that it was not appropriate to ask whether there were any graphics. Whether they have beautiful girls or not, they will naturally laugh at them.
Seeing the noon, he went back to the di store and found Di Qing to find a pub for dinner. The pub here is far worse than Bianliang. Although it is also hanging the wine flag, the decoration of the shop is very simple. Naturally, such a small county does not want to be like Bianjing. There are singing and dancing prostitutes in front of the door. However, since the two of them came for dinner, they didn't like these very much.
The two of them ordered some wine and vegetables, drank tea and waited for the food to be served. The hotel is not big, and the tables and chairs in the store can be seen at a glance. A man came in from the outside, dressed as a man, but passing by the two of them, there were bursts of rouge fragrance. Di Qing frowned and immediately went to see the man. Wang also paid attention to it. Next to King Di Qing: "This is not the moon, is it?"
Wang looked at it and said, "This is also a woman dressed as a man. She is also beautiful, but the fragrance is a little gorgeous." Wang's mind remembered the face under the moon, the face without fat powder, and the fragrance of the girl who seemed to be nothing. And the man who just passed by him, although he was also wearing men's clothes, it was difficult to hide his anger. Wang thought that there were countless people, and he gave the woman's appearance as a man's appearance seven points in his heart. The woman's facial features were a sign, but her expression was not like the moon or naughty or shy. Instead, it is more unruly and arrogant. Therefore, the overall king of this woman dressed as a man was given 6 points. But no matter what, in a small county like Weishi County, this woman is definitely a first-class beauty.
The shopkeeper served wine and said, "Miss Zhu. What kind of wine and dishes would you like to order today? Seeing that the woman called Miss Zhu stared at him fiercely, she quickly changed her words, "Mr. Zhu, the villain's mouth is wrong again. What kind of wine and dishes do you want to order?"
Miss Zhu said, "I'm not here for drinking and eating."
The shopkeeper said, "Well, well, I'll make you a pot of tea. You can sit down first." After saying that, he turned around and made tea for Miss Zhu.
Looking at the shopkeeper like this, Wang was curious. He asked Di Qing, "Master, do you think this woman is the daughter of the shopkeeper?"
Di Qing ignored him and was absent- mind. What would it be like for his daughter to dress up as a man? Seeing that Di Qing ignored him, Wang turned his head to look at the girl. He thought of Liang Yuexia. When he looked at Liang Yuexia like this, Yuexia blushed and avoided his target. But Miss Zhu didn't blush. She not only didn't blush, but also turned her head and said to Xiao Er, "Come here and blow this man away!"
The king thought he had heard it wrong, and the girl actually let someone coax him away. Xiao Er looked embarrassed and whispered, "Miss, no, no, no, no, it's not easy to do some business. Don't you offend the guests and run away?"
The girl slapped the table: "Who asked you to open the door to do business? Are you going or not?"
Xiao Er, look at the girl, look at the king, and then look back. He bowed his head and walked to Di Qing's table next to the king and said, "Two officials, you... Why don't you change your home to eat, or where do you two live and I'll take you home?"
Wang was almost out of joy when he heard it. He stood up and said, "This... Your son, we don't know each other. Why don't you let us eat here?
Miss Zhu said, "It's not that I won't let you eat. I won't let him open a shop..." She pointed to Xiao Er, and turned her face. Xiao Er didn't know where to hide.
When Miss Zhu saw Xiao Er's back running to the kitchen, she chased in and said, "Lu Shenyan, stop."
The people who ate in the restaurant laughed. Wang said, "Why don't we change one?" Di Qing said, "Forget it. If the kitchen has been cooked, isn't it a waste? Wait a minute."
As he was talking about picking up the cotton curtain of the pub, he walked in a big man. His accent did not look like a local. He came in and found a place to sit down and saw people sitting on several tables in the room. Only the shopkeeper greeted me. Then he shouted, "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper..."
Xiao Er rushed out of the back kitchen and chased Mr. Zhu with a kitchen knife behind him. Xiao Er turned around the table to avoid her and said, "Hu Niang, listen to me... I'm not the material for the examination of fame. My father left me this little family background. Do you think it's easy for me, tiger mother, oh."
Xiao Er ran and bumped into the big man. Seeing that the girl also ran close to him, the big man grabbed the girl's wrist, and the girl burst into tears. Xiao Er hurriedly said, "Uncle, let go. This is my daughter-in-law who hasn't passed the door."
Everyone is laughing loudly. The big man quickly let go of his hand. Miss Zhu wiped her tears and went out, and Xiao Er quickly chased him out. This small tavern left a few tables of people to eat, and the big man who didn't understand yet.
"What's going on here?" The big man said.
The people in this county at the table laughed and said, "This is a common thing. This is the second child in charge of the pub. The girl was originally the daughter of the county lord, but she was a concubine. Her mother was a singer in the capital, and the county master took it back. The county master drove the crane to the west a few years ago, and the main room promised the girl to Lu Shenyan. Shen Yan is also a hard-working child. Both father and son have experience in this store for many years. His father is also gone, and the teenager is carrying the store. That is, our old neighborhood takes care of his business.
The big man nodded after listening, and Wang Pian and Di Qing also understood. It's hard for the big man to say, "How to eat?"
The people in this county said, "We are all used to it. When we come, we go to the wine tank to make some. It's not ready-made dishes. Let's get some first. When they don't fight, they will come back.
After listening to it, the big man scratched his head. Di Qing said, "This virtuous brother, we have just ordered the dishes, but it should be faster than you. It's really good to order more. Why don't you come and sit down and eat together?" The king looked at Di Qing strangely. Di Qing whispered, "This man is a fierce general, which is really pleasing."
The big man was not polite. He said good and sat down at the same table with them. After a while, Xiao Er came back and said hello to everyone. Then, as if nothing had happened just now, he served the dishes and added wine to everyone.
Di Qing also chatted at this table for a while. During the conversation, he learned that the big man's name was He Liba. Seeing that he was also from another province, he asked him where he was going. He Libowo said, "I'm going to Chenzhou and go to General Di Qing"
