Hong Chen knew that Ji Cha was lying to others again, and he felt that lying was not good, but he still admired his ability to make others believe his nonsense. Compared with the situation where he had repeatedly told the truth but was taken as a lie, he felt quite frustrated.
, I had no intention of listening to the chat between Ji Cha and Liu Quan anymore, my mind was filled with thoughts of the past month.
After leaving Taoyuan, I first inquired about where to find good knives, and then was taken to a blacksmith's shop. I tried several knives but shook my head and said they were no good. The blacksmith kicked him out as a troublemaker. Later, I heard others say that all good knives are good.
If you want to find a famous sword, you will ask where the famous sword is. After learning about it, you will eat the wind and drink the dew and travel through mountains and rivers to go there.
As a result, no matter which sect or gang I went to, when people heard that they were here to see the knife, no one was willing to hand over the knife to them. When I explained to them, they either didn’t listen or didn’t believe it. If they continued to talk, they became very angry.
, draw a knife to chop yourself. In the end, you defeat your opponent, take the knife but find that it is not the knife you are looking for, then apologize and return it to the opponent.
For many days, only Ji Cha was willing to hear what he had to say, and only Ji Cha was willing to believe what he said.
Hong Chen had also thought about whether Ji Cha liked to trick others, so he would also trick himself, and he had a lot of confusion and doubts in his heart. It wasn't until Yuyou woke up after the battle with Luo Qinghan and saw Ji Cha that he suddenly understood - he said
He must have been deceived a lot, but it was better to go looking for the knife with Ji Cha than to hit the wall alone like a headless fly, so he followed more firmly.
On the other side, Ji Cha and Liu Quan talked for a while and found out that this rotten Confucian scholar was born in Xingyun Academy in Xingyun City in the south of Yunzhou. This time he went north to Tianjing in Tianzhou to join an uncle. In his heart
He looked down upon him more and more: "The poetry and sword sect of the previous dynasty came to this dynasty, and two sects, the 'harp sword' and the 'book sword', were derived.
Han is from the Qin and Jian sect; the Shujian sect has a larger number of people, and they are very economical and like to deal with the court. Many of them are officials in the court. I thought that although Liu Quan always eats carrots and is indifferent to worries, he will encounter injustice on the road.
You are brave and courageous. Now that you look at it, most of the time you go to Tianjing to join your uncle in order to get an official position. After all, he is just a layman looking for land and a home."
Thinking of this, the more he looked at this person, the more angry he became, and more thoughts came to his mind: "Maybe I came to chase the horse thief, just to make a contribution first. When I get an official appointment in Tianjing, my title may be bigger. As for that
Refusal is just a pretentious gesture by a stinky scholar pretending to be aloof."
Feeling unhappy in his heart, Ji Cha also started to speak harshly: "I wonder, Mr. Liu, do you want to be a military attache who rides a big horse every day to swagger around the city, or do you want to be a comfortable and leisurely civil servant who dances and writes all day long?"
"Miss Ji is too prejudiced." Liu Quan shook his head and said, "A military attache protects the country externally and stabilizes the people internally. He wears a uniform, armor and good weapons. His purpose is to go into battle to kill the enemy and intimidate Xiaoxiao, not to show off to others.
As for the civil service, it is not a position for leisure and enjoyment. It is to build projects, establish household registrations, promote enlightenment, and bring peace to the world. How can we do without civil servants? Fighting with military force and admonishing with civil service are the blessings of all people."
Ji Cha disagreed and said, "Don't excuse me. Pretend that others have never seen what it's like to be an official. Before you become an official, everyone talks prettier than the other. Once you become an official, your true colors will be revealed."
Liu Quan smiled bitterly and said: "Miss Ji Chen, don't mistakenly think that just because you have seen a bad official..."
Before Liu Quan finished talking about "mistaking that all officials are bad," Ji Cha smiled and said, "I know - don't mistakenly think that this is the only bad official just because you have seen one bad official!"
Liu Quan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He knew that it would be useless to argue, so he turned to say: "Where are Miss Ji Chen and Brother Hongcha from? What are they going to do in Ziyun City? If there is something inconvenient to talk about, there is no need to talk about it."
"Hey, there's nothing I can't say. I'm also from Yunzhou. I invited you for that black tea on the way, so I don't know. My family has business in Ziyun City, so I'm going to pick up some goods this time."
Ji Cha said in his heart that he was not lying: I am indeed from Yunzhou, I won’t tell you which city; Hong Chen, who was invited halfway, has no name, so it’s okay to change his name to Black Tea; the dignified tea picker,
Isn't it just stealing weapons when doing business? This is a big deal this time!
The inn station they originally set out from was not far from Ziyun City, but they were delayed for a lot of time by horse thieves along the way. Driving horses and carriages to escort the horse thieves was much slower than simply rushing. By the time the three of them arrived at Ziyun City, it was already dawn.
The city gate is wide open, and there are many pedestrians coming and going.
Ji Cha waved his horsewhip and said, "Mr. Liu, let's not cross here for now. You send the horse thief to the government, while Hongcha and I go to sell horses. We will have dinner on the first floor of Tianlin Inn in the city at noon." Without waiting for Liu Quan's consent, he hurried
The horse then goes away.
Liu Quan watched the two men leaving with more than a dozen horses without stopping him. Although according to Dayu regulations, the horses should be confiscated, he had made great achievements in capturing the horse thieves, so it was reasonable to take away the horses. He just thought to himself, this discipline
Miss Chen is so beautiful, don’t let the bell turtle you met on the boat catch your eye. After all, the bodyguard Hongcha looks ordinary and doesn’t look like he has any advanced martial arts skills.
Ji Cha and Hong Chen rode all the way to the morning market in Ziyun City, bargained with the merchants inside, and sold the horses for a total of three hundred taels of silver. Hong Chen hung a heavy bag on his waist. See you again.
When they went to the streets and alleys of Ziyun City, there were many notices posted. When they went over to look at them, they found that they were all wanted notices. Two of them were themselves, and there was another wanted person whom they also knew - it was Zhong Tuozi.
Seeing Zhong Tuozi's wanted portrait, Ji Cha remembered that when the disciples of the Yunmo Sect questioned Hong Chen that day, they had said that Wang Lifeng was not injured by Zhong Tuozi, but after her limbs were broken by a person who knew the ghost palm.
bell
The hunchback took the opportunity to steal away. He couldn't help but become suspicious again: "Who is pretending to be me to commit evil? But he also knows the ghost palm. I don't know which family of the Four Gates and Sixteenth Palace he is. Let me find out the truth. He is there."
Beautiful."
Hong Chen asked on the side: "Last time you said there were two famous swords in Ziyun City, which two were they? When are we going to steal them?" After saying the word "steal", he felt that it sounded a bit unpleasant, so he changed his words.
: "Uh, when are you going to pick it up?"
"Don't worry, we'll talk about it after we catch up on some sleep." Ji Cha covered his mouth and yawned, "I just want to go upstairs to the inn to have a nap, and then have dinner with Liu at noon, and let him have all the bounty he got from the government.
Come here. He is sour and rotten, so I am sure he is willing to give it. I just hope that he will not be too conceited and will not want the bounty offered to him by the government."
Hong Chen asked again: "Can we have the Jiuzhou banquet at noon?"
"Although we are rich, we are tired of eating too much at the Jiuzhou banquet. This time we will eat something with more local characteristics." Ji Cha shook his head and said, "The donkey meat in Ziyun City is said to be unique in Yunzhou and is braised.
Donkey meat is stewed and grilled with crispy incense.
In it, add chopped green onion and egg soup to eat and drink, it is salty, sweet and delicious. Slices of cooked donkey meat are dipped in garlic and balsamic vinegar, which also tastes very good. Finally, drink a big bowl of donkey offal soup... Tsk tsk, bliss on earth, Mo
More than this!"
Hong Chen licked his lips: "Really? I haven't eaten donkey meat yet."
Ji Cha raised his eyebrows and said, "Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground, will I still fool you? Go to the same land and water to eat the same dishes. Although the Kyushu banquet is a mixture of Kyushu delicacies, after all, it is not as good as eating it in person at the place of production. Wait for me
We have almost picked up all the magical weapons from Yunzhou, so I will take you to Tianzhou and Tianjing to pick them up, and on the way...hehe!" He licked his lips and laughed.
"What are you doing on the way?" Hong Chen remembered what he said yesterday, "Go sit on the dragon throne, be the emperor, and sleep with the queen?"
Ji Cha turned from happy to angry and stared: "Do you really want to sleep with the queen?"
"Uh, I don't want to."
Hong Chen didn't understand what these words were saying at all. Seeing that Ji Cha was angry, he quickly denied it.
Ji Cha then said: "I will take you to eat Tianjing roast duck by the way. It is said that the fruit wood roast duck there is different from the greasy roast duck in other places. It is smoked and roasted with high quality fruit wood. The roast duck has the aroma of fruit wood from the outside to the inside. The skin is crispy and the meat is crispy.
Tender, no fat, not greasy at all. Roast duck skin
The meat is separated, and the duck skin can be dipped in sugar and eaten directly. The duck meat and shredded green onion sauce are wrapped together in a pancake and then stuffed into your mouth to chew. It will keep your mouth full of fragrance and your mouth will be fragrant. After eating the skin and meat, drink the duck soup.
, my whole body felt warm, warm and indescribably comfortable."
