It was all caused by this trouble-loving little bastard and his little wolf. As soon as they set off, everyone lost their fortune. Then everything went wrong along the way, and they lost money wherever they went. When I was visiting a brothel in Jixian, I ran into this little bastard again.
The disaster star interfered in other people's business and provoked the barbarians, which almost made him weak. He went out to gamble for luck, but lost more than a hundred coins.
"It must be the disaster star!" People couldn't explain why the Xi people didn't migrate sooner or later before they arrived, venting their full resentment on Gan Luo's head.
"It's not a disaster star!" Li Xu stood up straight and stood in front of Little Wolf Ganluo like a mountain. He knew that Du Scaru and others didn't like him. He had bullied these people along the way.
He could bear it as long as he could. But Li Xu couldn't let them hurt Gan Luo. This little wolf was his partner and his only friend besides Xu Dayan.
The little wolf Ganluo jumped out from behind Li Xu, with his forelimbs lowered and his hind legs tensed, letting out a low growl from his throat. This threatening action frightened Du Scaran, and he hurriedly dodged to the side. Unexpectedly, he tripped under his feet.
With the rotten wood, it suddenly became a dog chewing shit.
"Ouch, ow, ow!" Gan Luo roared in victory, shook his pointed ears disdainfully, and squatted beside Li Xu's legs. Several people watching the excitement burst into laughter. Although life is bitter, if you
If you face it seriously, you can always find some interesting jokes when you least expect it.
"You two scourges, it's you and not me today. Tell me, you two go together, or drive away this little wolf!" Du Scaru got up amidst the roar of laughter, and with a "choking" sound, he pulled out his short knife.
Most of the way out, Wang Mazi followed closely behind, holding a wooden stick in his hand and looking at Gan Luo eagerly.
Li Xulu was stunned. He didn't expect someone to be so shameless. He looked up at the crowd and found that many of the vendors believed Wang Mazi's words and believed that today's accident was entirely caused by Gan Luo. But the few sober people hugged him.
With a mentality of watching the excitement, he turned a blind eye to the actions of Wang Mazi and others. This situation was something he had not expected in advance and his father had not warned him. He looked around, trying to find Uncle Jiu for help, but found that Sun Jiuhe
The swordsmen didn't know where they had gone, and they were nowhere to be seen nearby.
"Drive that little wolf away, otherwise everyone will continue to be unlucky!" Bewitched by Wang Mazi, or simply to find a reason to vent their anger, a dozen merchants with sad faces held the handles of their knives, slowly
surrounded by ground.
"It's not a disaster star!" Li Xu murmured in defense, but was forced back step by step by everyone. Du Scaran was unyielding and stretched out his big hand, preparing to pull him aside. Sun Jiu said that everyone was not allowed to do so.
I'll bully this bastard, I'll drive away the wild wolf, there'll be no problem at all!
The pain from his fingertips told Du Scarn that he had encountered a tough problem again. He raised his scarred old face and saw that his fingers were broken into right angles by a pair of white but strong palms.
"Hey!" "Straight bitch" Du Scaru and Wang Mazi cursed at the same time. One quickly retracted his fingers, and the other jumped around on the ground holding his feet. The little wolf Ganluo lay in front of Li Xu, mouthing
Holding half a straw sandal in his mouth, his eyes glowed darkly.
"If you want to fight, come with me. Fists, kicks, weapons, whatever you two choose!" Xu Dayan rushed over at some point, stood next to Li Xu, and said to Du, Wang and others.
"You! Bullying the old man and disobeying him!" Du Scaran shook his painful fingers and yelled at Xu Dayan.
"It's you two who are old and disrespectful. Uncle Scar! Uncle Pocket!" Xu Dayan replied in a long voice. He picked up a long wooden pole abandoned by the Xi people when they moved.
After kicking the ball in the air, he reached out and grabbed it in his hand, and said to everyone: "Come together, if anyone else wants to bully others, I will let you bully them to their heart's content!"
How could Wang Mazi and Du Scaru lose their prestige in front of a junior? They pulled out their daggers and jumped forward fiercely. Before Li Xu could find the guy who was taking advantage of him, Xu Dayan calmly pulled the wooden pole.
With a stab to the ground and a flick to the left and right, the two old villains were thrown out like gourds.
This move was really beautiful, and even several vendors who tried to follow Du Scaru to perform Taipingquan were frightened. They covered their waist knives and slowly backed away. Du Scaru and Wang Mazi saw that everyone was about to lose their morale.
, yelled, got up from the ground, and tried to regain the place together. Just as he took a step forward, he was hit by a wooden stick again in the same place as last time on his knee. His legs went weak, and he fell to the ground again.
The two thugs couldn't get up, so they lay on the ground and began to cry and scold Xu Dayan for bullying the elderly. They scolded Li Xu's father for having bad intentions and bringing up a disaster son to ruin everyone's fortune. They scolded other traders.
He was a coward, knowing that the disaster star was nearby, but he didn't dare to come forward. Several vendors who were usually friends with Du Scaru were squeezed into a blind corner and surrounded them again with swords on their waists.
Xu Dayan was so angry that he threw the wooden pole and hit it heavily on the grass next to him. "Shut up and keep talking nonsense. Don't blame me for being ruthless. Do you want to bully others with more people? Who dares?
Come forward, my surname is Xu, and I guarantee that no store in the entire counties of Henan will accept your goods!"
As soon as these words came out, they were more intimidating than the wooden stick in their hands. The people who gathered around them immediately retreated. Du Scaru and Wang Mazi were also frightened and stopped crying. Their eyes widened and they began to think about other things.
idea.
"So majestic, so murderous!" Sun Jiu's voice came from outside the crowd. Everyone was startled, and they moved out of the way to let Sun Jiu and others in.
"Uncle Jiu!" Li Xu and Xu Dayan hurriedly saluted. Now the trouble was a bit big. Sun Jiu was the leader of the caravan, and it was entirely up to him to handle the caravan members' fights and troubles. He had only heard Xu Dayan just now.
He threatened everyone, but didn't see how they bullied Li Xu. If he wanted to deliberately favor Wang, Du and other old Jianghu, he could rely on everyone's support to drive Xu and Li out of the caravan. On such an open grassland
, one has no guide, and the other has no experience, the only outcome for the two teenagers is to starve to death.
Even if Sun Jiu handles the matter impartially, in order to maintain the unity of the caravan, he may follow the wishes of everyone and drive Gan Luo away. Winter is approaching, and the little wolf that is more than one month old has basically no hope of survival in the wilderness.
.
"When people bully you, don't you fight back? Do you have to rely on others to protect you?" Sun Jiu glared at Li Xu fiercely and cursed with hatred. He tilted his head slightly towards Xu Dayan, still glaring angrily, "They
Are it the Huns or the Hus who are worthy of General Xu's heavy hand?"
"Uncle Ninth!" Both young men blushed. Seeing that something was not going well, Xu Da quickly threw down the wooden pole and apologized: "Junior, I'm rude, please punish me, Uncle Ninth!"
"Hmph!" Sun Jiu snorted angrily, and turned to the aggrieved group: "Two days away from here to the north, there is a tribe of Pei people, which is very big. Brother Hao Laodao and the others were there last time, so you can
Lead us! We will set off tonight overnight and we will arrive the day after tomorrow!"
"Really?" The crowd on the verge of despair immediately burst into excitement, forgetting all the disasters and calamities. The Xi people are famous for their skill in the grassland, where the leather goods are exquisite, the blankets are complicated, and the people's tempers are better than those of the Turks.
People are kind. Moreover, the Min tribe also provides a good thing that other tribes cannot buy no matter how much money they have! (Note 5)
"It's absolutely true!" The swordsman known as Hao Laodao assured everyone with a red face: "We will definitely arrive within two days. I rushed back from there a month and a half ago and got to know their clan leader!"
"Now, this is so prosperous!" Wang Mazi said while sitting on the ground, patting his thighs. Snot and tears were still hanging on his face, but he was smiling happier than when he picked up the ingot.
"No prospects!" Sun Jiu looked at the group of people who were suddenly in a state of madness and cursed in a low voice. He turned around and pulled Li Xu and Xu Dayan away from the crowd.
"You two little guys, don't you know how to respect your elders!" Sun Jiu's scolding could be heard by almost everyone. The vendors got the good news and felt comfortable. They had no longer thought about the fight. So,
He didn't care at all what kind of punishment Sun Jiu gave the two teenagers.
"Xu Zi!" Sun Jiu stretched out his hand and gently put it on Li Xu's shoulder. He lowered his head and comforted in a voice that only three people could hear: "Don't take what happened today seriously. When people walk, it is inevitable that they will step on something."
Shit time!”
"Thank you Uncle Jiu!" Li Xu saluted with emotion. The old man was not good at words, but his words were full of the wisdom of life.
Taking a peek at the vendors' reactions, Sun Jiu whispered: "Either don't fight. If you do, fight so that they don't dare to mess with you anymore. Usually when two villains hang out together, no one dares to bully the other. A villain
,A kind person is the real trouble!"
After saying that, Sun Jiu smiled softly. It was a cunning smile, but it made people feel particularly kind.
With hope, all the worries in the hearts of the vendors were gone. They set off to the north overnight and drove more than sixty miles in one go. It was not until late at night that they found a low-lying area behind the hills under the leadership of Hao Laodao.
They settled down on the ground and built a fire to resist the cold wind in the early morning on the grassland.
There is no forest barrier on the grassland, so the night wind is frighteningly strong. Even though they are hiding behind the mounds, the cold air still penetrates their bones. And in this bone-chilling autumn cold, the vendors will never dare to set up tents to keep themselves warm. They have no choice but to put up their tents to keep themselves warm.
He wrapped all the clothes he could wrap around his body, then hugged his shoulders, curled up, and endured hardship around the fire.
Regarding why he didn’t set up a tent, Uncle Jiu’s explanation to Li Xu was: the larger the space, the greater the impact of the wind. If the wooden stakes on the ground are not strong enough, both the people and the tent may be destroyed when everyone is asleep.
The wind swept him away. So even though he carried a thickened linen tent in his luggage, Li Xu had no choice but to follow the example of others and hold his shoulders and suffer by the fire.
In such a cold weather, how could a person who was going out for the first time sleep? In a moment, the night wind had penetrated through the heavy cold clothes, making Xiao Li Xu's back feel as cold as ice. He curled up and turned half way.
He made a circle and rushed his back toward the bonfire. Before his back could feel the slightest warmth, the clothes in front of him clung to his chest like iron. (To be continued)
