On the muddy road, two teenagers wearing raincoats each led a horse and walked slowly.
It's not that they can't get on the horse and ride, it's just that the horse is already carrying luggage, and if the weight of people is added to it, it will be easy to get stuck if the road conditions are not good, and it will be even more troublesome.
This was how traveling was done in ancient times. A little bit of bad weather would make the journey extremely difficult. In short... just get used to it.
"It's really unlucky. It's okay to look at the sky when I go out in the morning, but it rains like this halfway through the walk. I might catch a cold tonight." Huang Donglai complained as he walked.
"What the hell, you have the nerve to say that?" Sun Yixie was obviously very unhappy, "Aren't you a Taoist priest? You can't tell whether it's going to rain or not?"
"Do you think Taoist priests are Transformers? Can they turn into weather satellites?" Huang Donglai immediately replied, "If I could calculate that there would be rain in some areas, I would simply go to the imperial court and hang out in the Qintian Prison.
Isn’t it a pleasant job?”
"Tch..." Sun Yixie curled his lips and said, "You said that you are a Taoist who only thinks about becoming an official and getting rich all day long. Isn't that a bit vulgar?"
"Brother Sun, you are not ordinary. You traveled far away with 6,000 taels of 'mother's love'. If you didn't know, you would have thought you were going to buy a mountain." Huang Donglai tilted his head and said, "I'm different from you;
Our family has been in decline for many years, can we be more decent?"
"Mao~" Sun Yixi said, "Your Huang Clan is still the dominant one in Shu. No matter how it declines, how can you, the young master of the Huang Clan, submit to such an official position?"
"Ha..." Huang Donglai said with a smile, "I have already gone up the mountain to become a Taoist priest, so what else can I do to be unyielding? I can do whatever I want."
"Then you might as well come to Hangzhou to do business with me from now on. I'll be in charge of operations, and you'll be in charge of wishing our competitors a prosperous business. I think we'll take off in less than five years." It was nonsense anyway, and Sun Yixie wasn't afraid.
Pull it bigger.
"Go away~ I don't want it!" Huang Donglai replied without thinking, "I want to give it a try first with Bai Xiaosheng, a professional commentator in the martial arts world. If it fails, I will consider your plan."
"Ha!" Sun Yixie said with a smile, "Okay, let me see how many people you can kill with one shot."
As usual, the two of them were walking on the road, taunting each other and trying to relieve their boredom.
Speaking of which, since they left Gengjia Village and crossed Xingxing Mountain, they had hardly encountered any good weather. Just crossing Weishui delayed them for a day, and then they had to walk on this muddy road every day.
.
Fortunately, they are not in a hurry, so just take it slow.
"Eh? What's going on up front?" While they were chatting, Huang Donglai suddenly saw something from a distance and spoke.
Although it was daytime at this time, the visibility was not high due to the rain. Sun Yixie's eyesight was not good enough, so he walked a few steps forward and squinted to see what Huang Donglai was pointing to.
It turned out that there was a pavilion dozens of meters in front of them.
At this moment, there were two figures in the pavilion, one sitting and one standing; and on the roadside outside the pavilion, there was another person - a kneeling person.
The closer you get to the double harmonies, the clearer you see them.
But I saw that the two people in the pavilion were both women: the one sitting was dressed in plain clothes and had a dignified temperament. Although her face was beautiful and her charm was still there, the traces left by the years were still faintly visible in the corners of her eyes and lips.
I think she must be at least thirty-seven or eighteen years old; and the one standing there is a young girl, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. Although her clothes are as simple as that woman's, her appearance is...
It is much more eye-catching, it can be said to be picturesque, elegant and unforgettable, making it unforgettable.
The man kneeling outside the pavilion is a tall and thick-set man. He is wearing a black suit. He has a long beard and gray temples. He is taller than others even when he is kneeling.
As for this person's age, it's hard to judge because his appearance is similar to Zhang Fei in many movies and TV dramas. He looks the same from twenty to fifty years old.
"Isn't this a marriage proposal?" This was Sun Yixie's first reaction.
"How is that possible?" Huang Donglai asked, "Do you think this is a proposal from 'that world' of ours? Proposals here are all done by matchmakers. How can anyone kneel in the rain by themselves?" He paused and continued.
He said, "In my opinion, maybe this is an apprenticeship?"
"Apprenticeship?" Sun Yixie thought for a while, "So the elder sister in the pavilion is a master?"
"I don't know how tall she is, but just by looking at her sitting posture and demeanor, as well as the standing posture of the girl next to her, I know that they are both martial arts practitioners, and their martial arts are not bad." Huang Dong said back and forth.
He said, "What about that man... he is undoubtedly a practitioner. Look at him, kneeling in the rain on such a cold day, not even trembling, and his back is extremely stable. This is...
Even I may not be able to do it.”
"Well..." At this time, Sun Yixie's curiosity was aroused, "Brother Huang, why don't we go over and see the excitement?"
"Watching the fun?" Huang Donglai squinted his eyes and curled his lips, "I'm afraid Brother Sun doesn't want to watch the fun, but wants to see 'people', right?"
"Damn..." Sun Yixie felt a little guilty after being exposed, so he instinctively used a modal particle first, "What's the difference? Isn't the excitement created by people?"
"Haha..." Huang Donglai smiled, not bothering to answer his sophistry, "Okay, I'll go see it with you, okay?"
As they talked, the two of them had almost arrived near the pavilion.
Without saying much, they tied their horses to a pillar on the roadside, quickly passed by the big man, and both got under the eaves of the pavilion.
"Sorry to bother you."
"Brother, let me borrow it so we can take shelter from the rain."
These two guys were so shameless that they walked in regardless of the fact that there were already people in the pavilion. Of course, the space in the pavilion was not small, and there was still a certain distance between them and the two women, so it didn't matter.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When they stood in the pavilion, the woman did not look at them. She just silently picked up the wine glass on the table in front of her and drank it slowly.
One bite.
The girl, on the other hand, quietly rolled her eyes to the side, but she quickly hid her disgusted expression.
The pavilion on the roadside is a public place after all, just like today's stations. You can come in to take shelter from the rain, and so can others. It doesn't mean that the place is yours if you occupy it first, so it's really hard for them to say anything.
But this "not saying" made the atmosphere very tense.
Before Shuang Xie entered the pavilion, the three people were not talking. After Shuang Xie entered the pavilion, there were only five people gathered here, and still no one spoke. How embarrassing is that?
Sun and Huang wanted to break the deadlock, but at this time you have to say "It's raining really hard" and this kind of useless opening statement, which is very embarrassing - it's like a beautiful girl taking the initiative to sit down under the sunset.
Being around you, but you can only hold back the sentence "The wind is very noisy today" is so embarrassing.
But being in a stalemate like this is not the answer... Everyone knows that if you continue to drag it out like this, the final result will be that Huang Donglai will break the silence with "Brother Sun, just watch first, I'll take a shit." This is
This is something that everyone, especially Sun Yixie, doesn’t want to see.
Therefore, after a while, Sun Yixie was the first to speak: "Brother, although I don't know why you are kneeling there, I really can't help but want to ask... why don't you kneel in the pavilion?
?Wouldn’t it be nice to have an eaves to block some rain?”
In those days, it was quite taboo for a man to take the initiative to talk to a strange woman in a public place, so when Sun Yixie had nothing to say, he became the man to talk to.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Brother Sun finished speaking, the big man slowly turned his face and glared at him, as if all the anger that had been suppressed for a long time was gathered into four words, and shouted at him: "
none of your business!"
Of course, it doesn't matter what his attitude is, as long as he doesn't ignore Sun Yixie, then Sun Yixie's action will be considered a success.
"Hey~" The next second, Brother Sun said with a smile, "Did the dog bite Lu Dongbin? I'm kindly reminding you, but you still don't appreciate it."
Before he finished speaking, he heard the girl on the other side murmur softly: "Hmph... She obviously wants to be laughed at, and she's pretending to be a good person."
She said this quietly, probably because she wanted to tell the woman next to her to hear it, but as it turned out... the other three people obviously heard it too.
"Talk too much." Although the woman immediately said this to the girl.
But Sun Yixie took the opportunity, because with the girl's words at the bottom, it didn't mean that he took the initiative to talk to others, but that they spoke first.
"Hey! Since the girl has made it clear, I won't pretend anymore." Sun Yixie said, he came to the woman with a playful smile and gave a salute, "Sun Yixie, for the time being, can be regarded as a man in the world.
"Brother Huang, Brother Huang and I passed by here just now. When we saw this scene, we also saw that the three of us are friends in the world, so we couldn't help but be curious and wanted to come over and see where this song came from." He paused for a moment.
Seconds later, he added, "Of course, if it's not convenient to tell us this... we won't ask any more questions and will leave now."
"Sun... Yi... Xie?" When the woman heard the name, she showed a thoughtful expression. She must have heard of the name "Dong Xie" before.
But before she could answer Brother Sun, the big man kneeling outside the pavilion spoke first: "What? Are you Sun Yixie?" He said, and immediately looked at Sun Yixie twice from head to toe.
Then he turned his attention to Huang Donglai who was standing aside, "Then this 'Brother Huang'...is he Young Hero Huang Donglai?"
"That's right." Huang Donglai answered himself, and stepped forward and bowed to the big man, "Does this elder brother recognize me?"
The big man didn't answer immediately. After flashing his eyes, he asked again: "Are you really Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai?"
"This..." Sun Yixie turned around and looked at Huang Donglai, and then said, "Do we still need to find a way to prove it?"
"That's not necessary." At this time, the woman suddenly joined their conversation, "As soon as Shaoxia Huang came in, I smelled the smell of medicine on his body, but I didn't expect that you were the Shaoxia Huangmen.
host……"
Her words revealed a lot of information.
First of all, she could smell and judge that the smell on Huang Donglai's body contained a "medicinal smell", which meant that she knew at least one of the two disciplines of medicine and poison.
Secondly, regardless of whether she is a doctor or a poisoner, she or the girl next to her should have some medicinal smell on her body, but Huang Donglai did not notice any similar smell on them, he just smelled a little bit of it on the woman.
It just has a powdery smell.
You must know that Brother Huang's sense of smell is much better than that of ordinary people. Although rainy days will affect his sense of smell, the conditions are the same for the other party. From this, it can be inferred that this woman at least has a sense of smell.
Even higher than Huang Donglai.
"Sun Shaoxia! Huang Shaoxia! It's really you!" After a breath, before Huang Donglai could say anything to test the woman, the big man over there took over the conversation and shouted loudly.
"You... have something to do with us?" Sun Yixie became nervous now. He was afraid that this big man, like Chang Youfeng, was an enemy they had never met before.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the big man folded his arms and fists, and said with excitement: "The next deputy director of the Yong Escort Bureau, Zuo Dingkun, would like to ask the two young heroes to accept my bow!"
Before he finished speaking, Zuo Dingkun had already knocked his head to the ground.
This is great, Shuangxi saw this lively scene, and even saw himself in it.
Zuo Dingkun knocked his head one way, and then the other came out - Mr. Zuo met a noble man in the rain pavilion, and the tiger in the stone came to life again.
