A bead, a top-quality bead with colorful luster!
If such a pearl is placed in Chang'an East City, it will definitely allow you to have a delicious meal in the most luxurious restaurant! Or marry a beauty in the best brothel.
But now, this down-and-out man only exchanged it for half a piece of dry biscuit.
In this huge difference, there is certainly gratitude to Lin San for his generous help.
But more importantly, it is the deep fatigue and boredom in the man's heart.
If you make a wrong move, you will lose every step of the way! Now, the world is so big, how can there be room for him?
I dare not enter the city and dare not see people. At this time, even if I have a huge fortune, what can I do?
It's better to disperse, it's better to disperse!
The troubled man gnawed on the dry biscuits, completely unaware of the shock and greed in Lin San's eyes opposite him!
"No, you have to control it, don't take it!"
After swallowing hard and staring at the bead intently, Lin San suddenly thought of something and used great perseverance to push the bead back!
"The guest is joking, it's just a piece of cake, how can I accept your gift? Besides, this little thing is so beautiful, I guess it can be exchanged for a lot of cakes, right?"
Lin San felt like his heart was bleeding as he said these words against his will.
God, it’s not that he doesn’t want this! It’s actually that he knows it in his heart:
At this moment, I am playing the role of an honest and friendly farm boy! How can a farm boy who has never been to the county seat a few times recognize a priceless and top-quality Dongzhu?
When Lin San pushed the bead back, the man just finished eating the dry biscuit.
He raised his head and glanced at Lin San who was handing the bead, and smiled and said: "How can you take back what you gave away? Just keep it. It's just a beautiful bead, not a valuable thing."
"Isn't this worth anything?!" Lin San's face twitched slightly when he heard the man's understatement!
He remembered that he once robbed a large household with a group of people and got such a pearl.
It's just that that one wasn't as big as this one, nor as good-looking as this one. In the end, it sold for a full thirty bucks in the market!
Thirty guan of money! This money is enough for a family to eat dry biscuits for ten years! And how much is this obviously better bead in front of you worth?
"Then...thank you very much. I'll use it to make a headdress for my daughter when I get back."
The palm of the hand holding the bead was a little moist. In the end, Lin San couldn't resist the temptation and greedily took the bead into his arms. Fortunately, it was getting late and the man didn't notice his expression.
"Guest, it's getting late! Because it's close to a mountain, there are often jackals, tigers and leopards around here. It's not safe for you to walk at night! I think it's better to stay at my house for one night. I can also ask my mother-in-law to cook some food.
Let’s have two more cups at home.”
Carefully collecting the beads, Lin San patted his breast pocket calmly, smiled honestly at the man, and cordially invited him to his home.
"this……"
When he heard that he was going home with Lin San, the man looked hesitant. He was about to refuse subconsciously, but his stomach growled again. It was this sound that made the man give up the idea of sleeping in the wild.
"That's all, I don't know where I'm going tomorrow anyway, so why not fill your stomach and have a good rest? Even if you die, you won't be a starving ghost."
Sighing heavily in his heart, the man bowed his hands politely to Lin San: "Then I'm sorry!"
"Haha, you're welcome, you're welcome!"
Seeing that the man agreed, Lin San, who was a little nervous at first, immediately smiled and led the man to the village.
Because when they met the man, they were not far from Zhuangzi, so they only walked for a short while before they arrived at Lin's Zhuangzi.
Linjiazhuangzi is located at the foot of the Qinling Mountains. It used to be the foothold of some hunters, and gradually formed a village. Therefore, the scale is not too large, only a few dozen to less than a hundred households.
It was already getting late, and people had already eaten at this time. They were sitting at the door to enjoy the cool weather. When they saw Lin San coming back with a stranger, they all curiously asked: Who is this person?
"This... is a friend of mine! He was robbed when he came to see me." Lin San always answered this way when asked by his neighbors.
"Yes, we are about to be robbed, and we are being robbed in a den of thieves! Anyone who can easily take out a top-quality bead must have other treasures with him. God is really going to make us rich this time!
"
Thinking like this, the smile on Lin San's face became even brighter. He had already made up his mind not to call those brothers this time, but to eat this fat sheep by himself!
"My house is in front of the guest, eh? Wife, wife! Go and get some dishes. I want to talk to...this guest, I don't know what you call me yet?"
Leading the man back to the front of his house, Lin San shouted loudly before he could enter the door. However, before he finished shouting, he realized that he didn't even know the man's name, so he couldn't help but turned to ask the man in embarrassment.
"My, my surname is Xue, just call me Xue Er." The man answered, but when he mentioned the name Xue Er, his tone was obviously a little low.
Hey, my eldest brother just died in battle a few days ago, but I didn't even have the chance to collect the bones and go to pay homage. I could only hide here and there like a mouse, and I don't know when I was caught. Brother Bu
Following in the footsteps!
Speaking of which, it is estimated that many people have guessed the identity of the man.
That's right, this man is none other than Xue Wanche, who led the prince's personal guards to attack Xuanwu Gate and fled to the Qinling Mountains after the failure! General Xue!
Back then, after the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Xue Wanche hurriedly packed up Xinruan, not even taking care of his family, and fled to the Qinling Mountains alone.
His original intention was to go to Hanzhong or Mian County through the Qinling Mountains, and then go to Shuzhong, or somewhere further south to hide, and then come back to find his family after the news passed.
But it’s always nice to think about it, but the reality is always cruel!
Xue Wanche did not expect that after the Xuanwu Gate Incident, in order to show their merits to the new emperor, all the state governments rushed to send people to search for the former prince's old subordinates.
And the general who was once the most confidant of the prince, Xue Wanche, was the big fish that those people wanted to catch the most!
After several failed trips out of the mountains, Xue Wanche completely lost his way in the Qinling Mountains.
I don’t know how long I have been wandering, but today I walked out of the mountains and found myself back in Guanzhong.
"Brother Xue, come in quickly?"
A call woke up Xue Wanche. He nodded subconsciously and followed Lin San into the yard.
"Your yard looks great!"
Walking into the courtyard, Xue Wanche looked up at the layout of the courtyard and said casually.
"Haha, they were all handed down from our ancestors. Now that they have declined, these things are the only ones that have not been sold. Come on, come in and have a rest."
Lin San's heart trembled when he heard this, and he quickly stepped forward to open the door and welcomed Xue Wanche in.
