At the entrance of Qingshan Town, the sky is not bright, the dusk is still vast, the crescent moon hangs high, there are dots of stars, but there is a horse neighing.
Even though the sky was so dark, no one held up the oil lamp to light the torch. Most of the actions were done by fumbling. Even if there were occasional verbal exchanges, they were all in low voices and whispers.
After a long time, we were finally ready. It was almost dawn. The light that was not full could barely see things, and the outlines of the men and horses were revealed. The saddles of the two horses were still empty, and there was a pack horse.
There is a lot of luggage on my back.
Next to the horse, Mr. Qian patted the bundle on it and was satisfied that his binding skills were still mature. Wei Changpan nervously held the reins of the other two horses firmly, fearing that they would get away.
Mr. Qian brought back these three horses from the horse and carriage shop in Qishan County and deposited fifty taels of silver. Within half a year, these three horses were allowed to be driven. These horses were half a horse shorter than Gao Yanei's private horse.
Although the running speed of the first horse is limited, it is more durable and can carry heavy loads for long distances. It is already the best horse in this carriage and horse shop.
All the beauties in the brothel were there, and in just over half a year, the relationship between the young man and his servant was different from the ordinary master-servant relationship.
Wei Changpan had already said goodbye to his parents. The excuse he used was that Mr. Qian wanted to take him on a tour. They both agreed. Before going out, the honest and dull farmer stuffed a small cloth bag into him, which contained ten
For two taels of silver, his mother brought him clothes from all seasons and prepared a large bag full of dry food in his baggage.
Second Master Qian, who still had a cloth wrapped around his forehead, made a snort, pointed at the big and small bags beside Wei Changpan and said with a smile: "Are you going to travel around the country or move house? There is no need for all these things."
After escaping from the high office, it was inevitable to go through a lot of fighting, but Mr. Qian managed to escape smoothly. Even the baggage and mountain gun were brought back, but there was a cut on the forehead and a knife on the shoulder.
The skin injury was treated with the best golden sore medicine, and now it's mostly healed.
Gao Yameni, despite all his calculations, did not realize that this bad-tempered Qian Erye had only practiced shooting for less than a year, so his shooting skills were naturally weak, which made this man who was not shallow in his knowledge look away from Brother Seed.
Unexpectedly, this man's sword was far better than Zhang's gun.
Even so, Mr. Qian's journey was not easy either. The middle-aged man's cavalry skills were very sharp on the battlefield, but he could not gallop in the mountains and forests, and his legs and feet were not as agile as his.
, and then returned to Qingshan Town in a big circle.
Before returning to town, Mr. Qian did not forget to go to Qishan County to check on his master. Although he knew the old man's current abilities well and would definitely not make any big mistakes, he still felt uneasy.
It was a scolding, not scolding the apprentice for not sharing the master's worries, but scolding Qian Cai, the idiot, for losing the gold medal of the Zhang family's gun. What does it mean to lose to an unknown pawn?
But despite the scolding, Zhang Wu still reminded Mr. Qian that taking the little stone to travel around the world was just to avoid the limelight, lest Gao Yanei, who had lost face and face, would go crazy and do something evil.
Finally, Mr. Qian got these three horses back.
It was almost dawn, and all the farmers in the town had to pick up their hoes and lead the buffaloes to the fields. The master and the apprentice finally mounted their horses.
Cui Xiaoshan said that when Wei Changpan is two years older, he will no longer have to work as a servant in a brothel. In the final analysis, he is just a servant. In the eyes of outsiders, he will never be able to get on the stage. He studies and takes the imperial examination.
Whether he chooses his own path, whether he practices martial arts and becomes a martial artist, it is all up to him to make his own decision.
He may be gone for a few months at least, or for an uncertain amount of time at most, but the errands of the servants in the brothel and the beauties will always be left to him.
Wei Changpan was stunned when he heard this. Looking at his stupid look at this time, even Cen Linwan, who had the coldest temperament, also had a smile on his face. His eyebrows were even brighter and he pinched Wei Changpan's cheek hard with his slender jade fingers.
"Okay, okay." Yue Qingqing stopped her movements, suppressed her laughter and said, "Let us men who walked out of the brothel go to the world of martial arts."
Wei Changpan's riding skills were only good enough to sit on the horse all the time. At this time, he could not make any more moves. He could only loosen his hand that was tightly gripping the horse's reins, wave it twice and put it back to its original position.
Second Master Qian, on the other hand, was much smarter. He got on his horse, gave a fist to the beauties in the brothel, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and rode the horse. Wei Changpan, who didn't know how to ride a horse, could only follow the gourd's instructions.
Painting a ladle, he was almost thrown off the horse's back when the horse suddenly galloped, and it took him a long time to sway left and right before he stabilized his body.
The two people and three horses gradually moved away, and the beauties all returned to the brothel. Although they had a leisurely day, how could they be free?
So similar to the bird in the cage.
Mr. Qian glanced at Wei Changpan who could no longer see Qingshan Town but still wanted to look back, and laughed and cursed.
:
"Why do you want to look back just after leaving town? I didn't see you acting like this last time I went to the county. Could it be that your earlier statement that you wanted to make a career in the world was all a lie?"
"No..." Wei Changpan shook his head vigorously, "It's just some...indescribable feeling."
"That's right. You just haven't had enough training. You've been living in a big place since you were little, and your courage has become weak."
"Then Master, where are we going to travel this time?"
"No matter where you go, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes."
"Who are the people in the Jianghu? Will we encounter unreasonable officials and family members like Gao Yanei before? Will there be demons like those in the prison before?"
"There will be officials, there will be demons, there will be heroes, swordsmen, fairies and beauties. When the time comes, it will be up to you, little Shitou, to see if you can help the master bring back a mistress."
"Ah? Then I'm afraid there are not four junior wives? The first master's wife, the second master's wife, and the third master's wife all gave instructions before they came out, saying that if the master comes back this time, he will bring back a little one..." Wei Changpan's cheeks smiled slightly.
Twitching, "I will make Master a eunuch."
"It seems like the second son said this..." Mr. Qian scratched his head and sighed.
After walking only more than ten miles on the mountain road, Wei Changpan loosened the reins of his horse and imitated Mr. Qian's way of rising and falling with the horse's back. It was obviously much easier. These horses were used to walking on mountain roads and would definitely not be stupid enough to seek death.
Road fields.
The horses walked gracefully and the people swayed slowly.
The two masters and apprentices chatted while riding horses. They walked thirty-six miles out of the mountain road. They didn't go very fast, but after all, they were both riding horses. It was earlier than last time.
After that, he did not stop in Qishan County, but just walked on the road.
