On the sixth day of December, it snowed heavily.

On the official road outside Huaishui County, a carriage was rushing to school

Behind the carriage, there were two knights on horseback, following closely behind.

The snow was very large, like goose feathers, almost completely covering the ground, and the surrounding area was so white that even the world could not be seen clearly.

The coachman sitting in front of the carriage stared at the front of the carriage tightly, and although his hands were a little stiff from the cold, he did not dare to leave the reins of the horse at all, lest the horse pulling the carriage could not see clearly the official road completely covered by the snow, and pulled the carriage into the ditch.

In this kind of atmosphere, even the old horse who knows the way can't recognize the road, so he can only rely on the coachman's traces along the official road to go to the school

Although the air outside the carriage was cold, inside the carriage, because there was a charcoal stove, although it could not be regarded as warm as spring, at least it was not cold.

Lu Dashi was the only one in the carriage, and he was fortunate to lie on a chair with a square box on his head, where he closed his eyes and rested his mind.

The carriage was moving forward in the snow, swaying along the way, and Lu Dashi was really uncomfortable by the carriage, so he directly sat down in his position again and picked up the box he was pillowing just now.

The appearance of the box is delicate and abnormal, and the silver color of the whole body is extremely luxurious.

Lu Dashi stretched out his hand and slowly opened the box, and a green ball the size of a ping-pong ball appeared in front of Lu Dashi's eyes.

Pearl of the Night!

Lu Dashi looked at this night pearl and remembered what happened yesterday.

……

As soon as Lu Dashi arrived at the Yamen, he was called to the study in the backyard by Zhou Dingbang.

At that time, Zhou Dingbang took out the box, let Lu Dashi take a look, and told him that this bead was called the Night Pearl.

Night Pearl, although Lu Dashi has never seen it, he has heard of it, this is a rare good treasure.

Zhou Dingbang waited for Lu Dashi to appreciate it, and then told him that this night pearl was a gift he wanted to give to Huainan Don't drive Miao Chengping.

The tenth day of December is Miao Chengping's birthday, although his age is not very old, but his official position is high, and his birthday should still be celebrated.

This night pearl was bought by Zhou Dingbang at a large price, and the purpose was naturally to move it upward.

With such a valuable gift, Zhou Dingbang naturally didn't worry about others, so he appointed his henchman Lu Dashi to send congratulatory gifts on his behalf.

For this matter, Lu Dashi didn't even have time to participate in the opening of his own shop, so he took the risk and set off on the sixth day of December, preparing to rush to Nanjun City early.

The snow was heavy, and there were no people on the road, and the horses pulling the carts were running through the wind and snow with their hooves like a machine.

This time, for the sake of safety, Lu Dashi also took Lu Dashan and Lu Dahei, two brothers, to jointly protect this night pearl.

The driver who drove the car was an old man in the yamen, named Han Cheng, and this time he asked him to catch the car because he was familiar with this route, and this time he came to be a guide to show Lu Dashi.

Han Cheng is indeed a master of hurrying, along the way, he has a lot of ideas in his heart, and the speed and qi of the carriage are all in his calculations

Even if he arrived at an inn, he didn't stay when he saw that it was still early, and continued to hurry, always walking to the next inn before dark.

In this way, with a veteran like Han Cheng leading the way, Lu Dashi didn't bother, and he only slept in the carriage, and rushed to Nanjun City at the 3rd time.

The snow has been falling for three days, but it still hasn't stopped, and although the snowflakes have become a little bit, it is still falling very quickly.

The wind and snow were too big, and Lu Dashi didn't care about enjoying the beautiful scenery of Nanjun, so he directly asked Han Cheng to find an inn and settle down first.

Han Cheng drove the carriage along the street and soon stopped in front of an inn.

As soon as the car stopped, one of the shopkeepers ran out quickly, reached out and grabbed the reins of the horse, and said loudly.

"Do you want to stay in the hotel, if you do, drive the carriage to the backyard, where there is a stable, and let the horses rest."

Hearing this, Han Cheng turned around and lifted the front curtain of the carriage, "Lu Zhutou, let's stay here." ”

After hearing Han Cheng's words, Lu Dashi nodded, carried the burden containing the box in his hand, and then jumped out of the carriage along the curtain that was lifted.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, a cool breeze blew on his face, Lu Dashi couldn't help but shiver, and immediately walked towards the store with the guys in the store.

"Guest officer, come in, it's warm in the house!"

Lu Dashi opened the door curtain, and immediately felt a hot air rushing to his face, and hurriedly walked into Fang Zheng

Lu Dashi stood at the door, looked into the store, and saw a large brazier in the middle of the hall.

In the brazier, the charcoal fire was already burning red, and the heat kept drifting into the room, driving away the cold air in the house.

At the brazier, four or five other people sat on the side to bake the fire, and when they saw that the curtain of the door was lifted, they all looked towards the door.

Lu Dashi was about to walk inside, and a guy had already put a low chair by the brazier and said attentively.

"Guest officer, come here to do it, it's warm here, bake the fire first, go to the cold!"

Seeing this, Lu Dashi casually took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to the guy, "Go and prepare two upper rooms, as well as hot water, and send them to the room." ”

At this point, Lu Dashi's tone paused before continuing, "Remember, raise the fire first, and when we pass, it will save the house from being cold!" ”

The man pinched the piece of broken silver that Lu Dashi threw over, and immediately smiled with joy.

"Guest officer, don't worry, when you go to the room, it will definitely be warm."

After that, the man left happily.

Lu Dashi slowly came to the brazier and sat down, and was just about to stretch out his hand when he heard a middle-aged man on the opposite side ask tentatively.

"This brother, but his surname is Lu?"

When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly raised his head and asked in surprise, "Are you talking to me?" ”

The middle-aged man on the opposite side nodded, "This one is from Huaishui County." ”

Lu Dashi nodded, "You know me?" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he smiled and nodded, "Your Excellency is the head of Lu Zhu?" ”

When Lu Dashi heard this, he hurriedly hugged his fist at the middle-aged man, "It's just here, I don't know the name of this big brother?" ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Lu Zhutou, it's really a noble person who forgets things, do you remember the Miao family in Qingyang County?" ”

Lu Dashi nodded, looking at the middle-aged man with some doubts.

The middle-aged man smiled, "Since Lu Zhutou still remembers the Miao family in Qingyang County, he should still remember the Zhang family, the neighbor of the Miao family." ”

At this point, the middle-aged man didn't wait for Lu Dashi's words, and continued to take care of himself.

"The person is Zhang Laosan, the horseman of the Zhang family, I still remember that at that time, Lu Zhutou once went to the Zhang family for the case of the Miao family, and people saw Lu Zhutou at that time, and later heard about Lu Zhutou, and remembered it."
