In this way, Gan Feihong confusedly recognized Sun Yixie as his eldest brother.
Of course, Sun Yixie is well versed in the ways of the world and knows how to stabilize people's hearts. He promised Gan Feihong some benefits at that time - Sun Yixie said to Gan Feihong, as long as I see our eldest brother Hao Jingyu, I will definitely be there
Give Brother Gan some kind words in front of him, and by then you will not only be able to enter the Tao, but no matter what happens, you will be ranked in the "Zhou" generation in the "primordial universe".
This cake painting made Gan Feihong so happy that he almost knelt down and kowtowed one to Brother Sun.
He never thought... Even if Sun Yixie is really Hao Jingyu's brother, he might not be able to see Hao Jingyu for the next year and a half. Who knows what will happen in a year and a half? Maybe they
This group of Jiang thieves had already been wiped out by the imperial court at that time.
But in front of him, Sun Yixie was truly enjoying big brother-level treatment.
This group of Jiang thieves were also truly righteous. After worshiping their eldest brother, they not only stopped robbing Sun Yixie, but also did not touch the other passengers on the boat at all. They went back to their own boat and escorted their big boat all the way to the other side.
Near the ferry, they dispersed.
After Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai came ashore, Gan Feihong also sent several brothers who were responsible for tracking (water thieves usually deploy some sharp-eyed minions with quick legs to look for targets on the shore in advance. Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had previously done so because they looked like
Like two second-generation ancestors who are targeted), I specially sent two pieces of brown brocade to "Brother Sun"; this brocade is the mark agreed upon by the water and land thieves on both sides of the Yangtze River. As long as this is tied to
If you put it on your body, it means you are one of our own, and your peers along the road will not attack you if they see you.
With this heavy guarantee, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai's next journey became much smoother. The two drove their horses north around Chaohu Lake, and after two days of walking, they arrived at Luzhou City.
This place belongs to Luzhou Prefecture directly under Nanjing. It is a thousand-year-old city with many scenic spots.
After staying at the inn, Huang Donglai proposed that it was a rare trip and wanted to take a look at Xiaoyaojin. Sun Yixie didn't want to go and said he wanted to go with you.
Huang Donglai asked him: "Is it because your old Sun family was fucked here by Zhang Wenyuan before, so you don't want to go?"
Sun Yixie answered him: "Yes, I don't want to go to such a sad place."
But in fact, based on Brother Sun's half-full understanding of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and his inverted understanding of China's geography, he could neither recall the allusion of "Zhang Wenyuan's power to shock Xiaoyaojin", nor did he know about Xiaoyaojin
Tianjin is in Hefei (i.e. Luzhou), and he simply doesn’t want to go.
So Huang Donglai decided to go there alone and ask the "high-speed rail gang" here if they had tickets suitable for them.
After Huang Donglai left, Sun Yixie waited for a while, then locked the door, went to the bronze mirror in the room, and quietly took out a bottle of bruise medicine.
Huang Donglai didn't know that the place where Sun Yixie was hit by Ma Si on the back has not completely healed to this day, and there is still a bruise that has not faded away.
It is true that Ma Si's ten years of sword skills were not in vain. If it weren't for the fact that he had been too comfortable in the village these years and slacked off in his practice, Sun Yixie would have broken several of his swords when he used them.
Bones are not allowed.
Fortunately, Sun Yixie's current injury is not serious. When he had sword fights with people in the fish market, he often organized or participated in large-scale fights, so he had long been accustomed to such injuries.
In the past few days, Sun Yixie has been secretly applying medicine to himself in his room; this is also his old habit, and sometimes he is a bit desperate to save face. In fact, if he just tells Huang Dong, he can ask Huang Dong to come up with Huangmen's secret medicine. He was given healing medicine and it would take up to three days to recover, but he felt it was a bit embarrassing that he was injured when he beat a bandit leader while wearing protective armor, so he never mentioned it.
But I have to say that the battle at Zoumazhai also taught Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai, who were new to the world, a lesson to some extent.
The two of them had almost zero previous experience in the world of martial arts. Needless to say, Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai had previously traveled from Shuzhong to Jiangnan by a high-speed rail carriage. It was not until he met Shen Youran outside Hangzhou that he met her for the first time. If you fight against people, you will only deal with miscellaneous fish.
In their minds, an existence like the "bandit leader" was not an opponent worth taking seriously... However, Ma Si told them with his actions that in the world of martial arts, you can face anyone who seems to be a bad person. Don't be careless when dealing with your opponents.
After all, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the world - you never know whether one day you will be beaten to death by a sweeping monk or a brothel waiter.
…………
The words are divided into two parts, let’s talk about Huang Donglai.
After leaving the inn, the first place he went to was the medicine shop. When he taught the villagers how to prepare "poison explosive bombs" in Nanyuan Village a few days ago, although most of the materials were used from the village medicine shop, he still moved to some extent. He had to keep his own inventory, otherwise he would not be able to produce effective poisons based on the supplies in a small village. Later, because his stay in Xuancheng was too short, he did not have time to replenish it.
Now, when he arrived in Luzhou City, he wanted to prepare more medicinal materials, and then go back to the inn at night to mix more elixirs in case of emergency.
After going to the drug store to place an order and leaving some deposit money, he greeted the drug store manager and asked them to prepare the things and he would pick them up in a few hours; then, Huang Donglai strolled to Xiaoyao Tianjin.
Xiaoyaojin was privately owned by a bureaucrat surnamed Dou more than a hundred years ago and was renamed "Doujiachi". Later, it was passed down for several generations. When the power of the Dou family failed, it changed several owners. During the Yongtai period, it fell into the hands of a rich man named Zeng. His mansion was built next to Xiaoyaojin, surrounded by woods and water.
Of course, Huang Donglai didn't know about this. He thought that the area around Xiaoyaojin was a park like his previous world, but when he went there... he was blocked by the courtyard wall.
Although he could easily get in by relying on Qinggong, but in broad daylight, he didn’t know whose land was inside the wall, so just jumping in would be like breaking into a private house; but he had no choice but to walk along the courtyard wall for a while. Want to see the situation.
Not long after, Huang Donglai arrived at the gate of Zeng Mansion.
Coincidentally, at this time, a group of people were gathered in front of the Zeng Mansion to watch the excitement, chatting and talking.
Huang Donglai squeezed through the crowd to the front and saw several officials carrying a body wrapped in straw mats walking out of the gate.
Logically speaking, someone from this big family should not come out like this after someone dies...
If someone dies in a wealthy family, they have to cry first, then announce the funeral, and notify the government; as for the dead body, it is first placed in the family ancestral hall and kept in crypt for at least three days (some embalming treatment will be done, especially in summer), waiting
Relatives and friends come to attend the funeral, and at the same time, they quickly find a coffin shop and a master who specializes in sewing shrouds to make and package the shroud. They wait three days to confirm that the person is completely dead (in ancient times, people who were in shock were often regarded as dead and then woke up during the burial).
), then put the deceased in a shroud, put it in the coffin, and go to the back door for the funeral.
After the burial, when the eldest son or grandson holds the memorial tablet and leads the funeral procession back home to eat tofu rice, they still have to take a different path than when they went there, and at this time they must enter through the front door... and so on, the rules are very big.
In those days, especially wealthy families, they were very particular about these things. Any mistake in etiquette would be very unlucky and disrespectful.
However, if a servant dies, it doesn’t matter so much. Usually, you just wrap it up with a straw mat and go out the back door on the same day. If you meet a more benevolent boss, he will take you to the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village.
, at least buy a cheap coffin to put it in for burial, and simply set up a monument; but if you meet someone who is rich and unkind, just ask someone to wrap you in a straw mat and take it to the cemetery for a shallow burial... like this
Yes, if you are unlucky, you will have your grave ripped open by wild dogs that night and your body will be eaten intact.
But today's battle is unusual.
First of all, the government came to collect the body, which means that there was a murder... But let's talk about it for another time.
Secondly, the officials moved the corpse through the main entrance. Could it be that the local magistrate deliberately did not save Mr. Zeng’s face?
Huang Donglai listened to the conversations of the villagers next to him and realized that this should be impossible.
According to what these people said, the county magistrate here regards Mr. Zeng as his own father. Not to mention how much benefits he gets from the Zeng family every year, just because Mr. Zeng’s son-in-law is the minister of the court,
It is enough to make Mr. Wang bow down and obey his advice.
So what's going on?
When Huang Donglai was confused, the policemen had already shouted and drove away the onlookers and opened a road. Then, they saw them carrying the corpse wrapped in straw mat and running straight away from the Zeng Mansion.
Went to the Mingjiao Temple (also known as Mingjiao Yuan, Mingjiao Terrace) on Liang Street.
"Old man, may I ask where this song came from?" Huang Donglai was a curious person. Besides, he was just wandering here today. When he saw a show, he stopped an old man and asked.
"Young man, are you a foreigner?" This kind of man who stood here in broad daylight with nothing to do and watched the excitement was actually looking forward to someone chatting with him. When Huang Donglai asked, he responded with excitement, "Ah... this matter
My son, it’s a very evil thing.”
"Oh?" Huang Donglai also showed a more curious expression as the other party wished, "What is going on?"
"I'm telling you..." The uncle deliberately lowered his voice and said with a mysterious expression, "This is the third one that has been carried out this month..." He looked around, as if he was really
It was as if someone wanted to eavesdrop on him, "...it is said that there is something unclean in the Zeng Mansion."
