The sun was scorching like fire, and two horses were riding on the official road. The man on the horse wore a bamboo hat on his head and carried a knife at his waist. He was so burned by the sun that he looked like he would rather die than live.
Chang Yu reached out and took out the water bag, shook it and sighed. He turned his head and glanced to the side. Jiang Fa smiled bitterly and shook his head. There was no river or village around, not even a place to ask for water. Then he glanced behind and saw someone.
The caravan team was traveling and said, "I'm going to use the water as an excuse, little man."
But he was declined politely, and the seller said he was out of water, but there was a town not far ahead.
Chang Yu's mouth was dry and his throat was about to smoke. After hearing this, he and Jiang Fa ran quickly.
Not far?
They are, at least, twenty miles away, and the horses have run out of energy.
This made the two of them very angry, but fortunately they finally saw the town.
The village is close to the official road, and business travelers often stop here. At first glance, there are many people and many shops. There are only four or five tea sheds that are full of people. Chang Yu rushes to a tea shed and has not yet arrived.
After being greeted by the waiter, I ran to someone else's water tank, scooped out a few bowls and drank it to my heart's content. This made the waiter unhappy: "This is a tea shed, I'm not letting you fill the water for free."
Chang Yu chuckled and took out a few pennies: "I'll pay for it and fill up this water bag for me."
Drinking crude tea on this hot day is really not as satisfying as drinking cold water, not to mention that my throat is already smoking from thirst.
The waiter was delighted when he saw his generosity. He hurriedly helped fill the water bag and got some water for the horse to drink. At this time, Chang Yu felt hungry again.
The two walked around the town with their horses, and saw a shop selling sesame seed cakes that also sold chicken soup and dog meat. There were not too many customers inside, so they tied their horses at the door and came in to order a stack of sesame seed pancakes and two large bowls of chicken soup.
Jiang Fa was so greedy that he asked for half a catty of dog meat.
There were several beggars standing at the door of the store watching them eating and drinking, their eyes shining and they kept swallowing. Seeing this, Chang Yu asked the store owner to give them each a sesame seed cake. One bold beggar smiled and asked: "Young Master,
Can I give you meat to eat?"
Chang Yu raised his fist and said, "Can you eat this?" The beggar then ran away with a smile.
"You kid, what are you doing following me all the way?" Just at this moment, a big man rushed in and spat on Chang Yu's face.
It was the down-and-out traveler he met at Luoshui Ferry.
Later, the broken swordsman actually left together with the woman in green clothes, which surprised Chang Yu at that time. After Jiang Fa reminded him that he might have been cheated, Chang Yu decided to follow him secretly.
They just followed him for two days and saw nothing unusual. Although the two of them were still confused at this time, they also knew that they were wrong. The big man was so poor, and the woman couldn't get anything from him!
Although he couldn't figure out what the woman in the white and green shirt saw in this man with a broken sword, Chang Yu decided not to follow him anymore. After all, he still had business to deal with, so he left, but he didn't expect to meet him here.
"Why are you giving me such a random nickname?" The man was furious and shouted, "Tell me, why are you following me?"
"Fuck, call me handsome." Chang Yu glared, then looked outside: "What about the heroine, oh, I get it, you were kicked."
"Fuck you!" The man reached out and took a sesame seed cake from Chang Yu and stuffed it into his mouth: "You idiot, following me all the way, are you trying to trick me!"
Chang Yu made a sign of disgust: "I won't even give you that broken knife of yours. Besides, when did I follow you? This road doesn't belong to your home..." As he said this, the big man looked at his mouth in the blink of an eye.
After stuffing three sesame seed cakes, he was still not satisfied and reached out to grab the dog meat in front of Jiang Fa.
Little did they know that Jiang Fa was protecting the food, and clamped the man's hand with a pair of chopsticks. The man let out a laugh, and grabbed Jiang Fa's wrist with his backhand. Jiang Fa sneered, and locked the man's wrist with a move of gold wire wrapping his hand, and pushed out with his inner strength.
, the man took two steps back.
It’s just two steps.
"I underestimated you." Jiang Fa put down his chopsticks and stood up. The man laughed and said, "I'm not wrong. I'm really a master. He's also a stingy master who won't even give up his mouth."
"It's just that this meat is expensive." Jiang Fa smiled and said, "I begged the young master for a long time before I bought this bite."
"Oh, then your young master is too stingy." The man looked at Chang Yu.
"The landlord's family doesn't have much food left," Chang Yu sighed, and suddenly saw a woman in green shirt leading a horse passing by on the road outside the door, and then turned to look here.
"Hey, Nvxia" Chang Yu stood up and walked over: "Nvxia is here to find your loser, he's inside." As soon as Chang Yu finished speaking, a strong wind blew behind him, and he didn't even look back.
A kick to the side of the body.
The man failed to make a sneak attack and was almost kicked by Chang Yu. He immediately rushed over in a rage and started punching and kicking Chang Yu. The woman and Jiang Fa watched without moving.
"There's a fight, come and watch, there's a fight..."
Soon the surrounding area was crowded with spectators, but the shopkeeper was very anxious: "You two heroes, don't fight, don't fight, you should go out and fight..."
Chang Yu had never been afraid of fighting, but the man was also extremely powerful with his fists and kicks. The space in the store was small and the two of them were fighting hand-to-hand. The more they fought, the more angry they became. Dozens of moves passed in the blink of an eye, and each of them received punches and kicks. The store was completely destroyed.
It became a mess, and more and more people were watching.
"Okay!" The woman in green shirt suddenly shouted: "Second brother, we have to hurry up."
When the man heard the sound, he jumped out of the circle and said, "I'm looking down on you kid."
The second brother? Chang Yu looked at the woman in green shirt in surprise: "This guy is your brother."
What? The man snorted coldly: "If you follow me again, I won't let you go next time!" As he said this, he looked at something at his feet and was about to bend down to pick it up in confusion. Jiang quickly grabbed it and said, "This
It’s my young master’s amulet, don’t get it dirty.”
Moreover, the man glanced at his mouth, turned around and left.
The man left, and the onlookers dispersed. The shopkeeper smiled brightly, because Chang Yu took out a piece of silver and said he would pay for the loss. It was just a few broken bowls, so there was no big loss.
"This guy's boxing and kicking skills are not weak. He is as good as the Chen brothers and Qiao Sanxiu." Chang Yu sat down to eat and drink again, with a few bruises on his face: "There are indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the world."
Jiang hummed: "But Xiao Xiao is sure that he can be defeated within a hundred moves." Chang Yu smacked his lips and said, "Jiang said this to Shi, doesn't it make me look very shameless?"
Jiang Fa smiled and said, "Young master, you haven't tried your best." Then his face darkened: "I'm afraid his sword skills are not weak either."
"No matter how high you are, it can't be higher than Wuzhong." Chang Yu snorted: "On the other hand, the woman who didn't take action may be the one who really hides her secrets."
Jiang Fa didn't say anything. He lowered his head and ate the dog meat. Suddenly he thought of something: "Will he be exposed?"
The amulet he picked up just now is actually Chang Yu's waist badge, which reads: Admiral of the East Police Factory, which is equivalent to Chang Yu's ID card.
Chang Yu thought for a while: "That guy doesn't look like a literate person. Even if he is literate, he may not be able to see it clearly at a glance. This waist badge is only one in the entire Ming Dynasty. I'm sorry he has never seen it."
Navigating the Ten Thousand Year Ship carefully, Jiang Fa nodded slightly, still a little worried in his heart: "Let's leave early after eating."
