After walking a long way, until he could no longer see the shadow of Wen Ping and Wancheng soldiers, Qiu Ming sighed and said to Wei Yan: "People's hearts are really unpredictable, I married Xiaoli Xu to Wen Ping, I expected to make a family, but unexpectedly, I made an enemy." Alas, you can't mess around with mandarin duck scores in the future. Wei Yan also shook his head and sighed.

Zang Ba asked Liao Hua in a low voice: "Isn't that county lieutenant just now older than the county official?" Why do you all seem to hate him so much? Liao Hua told him about the closure of Bishui, and Zang Ba shouted: "There is such a despicable and shameless person in the world, and I can be regarded as an eye-opener, so I should have stabbed him with one shot to eliminate harm for the people." ”

Zhou Tai saw that Zang Ba was yelling, and he also leaned over to inquire about the reason, and after a while, he also yelled: "Wow Zazha is angry with me, I'll go back to the horse and kill that guy with a knife." Jiang Qin grabbed him and said, "Don't act recklessly, ruin the county's plan." ”

Zhou Tai asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Jiang Qin smiled and said: "You and I have been with the county for some days, have you ever seen him willing to suffer?" It's not that I didn't report it, it's just that the time has not yet come. ”

Zhou Tai thought for a while and muttered: "These scholars are really unpleasant to do things, like I never hold grudges, and if I have a grudge, I will take revenge on the spot." ”

Because it was around Wancheng, the team went around in a big circle, and it took half a day in vain, and it was already two days later when they arrived at the outskirts of Runan. Liu Bei flashed out from the side of the road and complained, "Why did you come?" Chen Gong's plan was to start tomorrow night and meet us at Ruyin at about noon the next day. If you don't come back, I'm going to tell them to cancel it. ”

Qiu Ming said with a smile: "There is something delayed on the road, but it is only half a day's journey from Runan to Ruyin, and we have time." By the way, is there any situation in Runan these days? ”

Liu Bei said: "I didn't find anything abnormal, it's just that a strange monk has recently come to the city, and he talks crazy every day." A few days ago, it was said that Yuan Feng, the head of the Yuan family, had committed Tai Sui, but he was afraid that his life would not be long before he was beaten by the Yuan family. Unexpectedly, Yuan Feng suddenly suffered a stroke and fell yesterday, and he didn't know what was going on, so he had already sent someone to Luoyang to inform Yuan Shao that Brother Yuan Shu had come back to prepare for the future. ”

So amazing? Tyumen's first reaction was that this was a demon monk. However, fortune tellers often scare fools and fools with loud words, and this sentence alone does not mean that he really has any Taoism, it still depends on his usual performance.

Qiu Ming was thinking like this, and Wei Yan said with a sigh: "Yuan Shu wants to go back to Runan?" Shall we not go into the city and avoid him? ”

Qiu Ming laughed: "What are you afraid of him doing?" And our trip is to make a big fanfare, there is forgivable if Wancheng does not enter in front, if Runan does not enter, it will seem that we are empty-hearted. ”

Liao Hua immediately responded: "Yes, yes, we have been outside in the wind and sun for two days, and if we don't find an inn to wash and scrub well, I'm afraid that my whole body will stink." ”

Liu Bei said in embarrassment: "You want to enter the city?" I just came out of Runan City, and if I go back, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. ”

Qiu Ming looked him up and down and said, "This matter is simple, how about wronging Xuande to talk about pretending to be a drummer in my team?" ”

Liu Bei was even more embarrassed: "Drummer? I'm not very good at this, it's better for me to mix in the cavalry, as long as I cover my face, I shouldn't be recognized. ”

Qiuming rarely encountered an opportunity to tease Liu Bei, how could he easily let it go? He sighed softly and said: "Xuande, you don't know yourself too well, you said that you have a very long hand over your knees, and your eyes can look at your ears, who can not recognize you?" Only by pretending to be a drummer, and then wearing red and pretending to bow your head to play, you should be able to get away with it. Liu Bei thought about it, and had no choice but to nod and agree.

The last time Tyumen came here was the Yellow Turban Rebellion, two years have not seen, Runan City is no longer the withered appearance of the past, the street is shuttled, the drawbridge side of the colorful flags fluttering, and a banner was raised above the city gate: Warmly welcome Cheng Tyuming of Dengzhou County to visit the city.

Qiu Ming was surprised and delighted, and shouted, "Xuande, what's going on?" ”

Liu Bei was wearing a tall green cloth hat, almost covering his eyebrows and eyes, holding a suona rod in his hand, and he was puffing out his cheeks to blow hard, but he couldn't blow out at all. Hearing Qiu Ming's question, he said angrily: "I'm just a drummer, how can I know these things?" You just go and ask them if you don't. ”

Qiu Ming grinned, dismounted and walked onto the suspension bridge, and said to several old people guarding the bridge: "Old man, you are here to pull flags and show colors, but what is the matter?" ”

An old man with white hair and white beard saw Qiu Ming's style, and said tremblingly: "You are Qiu Xiancheng, right?" Yang Gui, the little old man, is now Cao of Runan City, on behalf of more than 300 businesses in the city to welcome the county into the city. ”

Qiu Ming was taken aback, he originally thought that it was just an ordinary ordinary person, but he didn't expect to ask a city Cao, you must know that the official rank of the city Cao in the big county is even higher than that of his small county. He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Yang Gui: "Yang Shicao is so far away, how can he afford to teach and prepare for the position?" ”

Yang Guidao: "Affordable, deserved, I Runan large and small merchants, these two years thanks to the trade of the autumn market can the family business prosper, Qiu County can be said to be our food and clothing parents, even more welcome out is also deserved." Sun Qian came to report the news first, and the merchants in the city were waiting for the county to come, and prepared a thin wine in Cuixiang Building to catch the wind and wash the dust, and the county Cheng must appreciate his face. ”

It turned out that this was the case, Qiu Ming sighed in his heart, Wancheng is so close to Dengzhou, but his attitude towards himself is so bad, but as long as they have the same diligence as Runan City, the people's livelihood in Wancheng will not be as difficult as it is now. The so-called sedan chair was carried by everyone, since these people gave face like this, of course Qiu Ming would not know how to do it, so he immediately took Yang Gui's hand, greeted the others with a pleasant face, and walked slowly towards the city.

Just turned two intersections, before I could see the road conditions in front of me, I heard someone proclaim the Buddha's number: "Nan Wu Amitabha", the voice is both high-pitched and low, it seems to be far away in the sky, and it seems to be close to the ear, which makes people feel suddenly out of the dust. Qiu Ming raised his eyes and saw that a sloppy wild monk was sitting on the stone bridge not far away, with a focused expression as if nothing existed in heaven and earth, and the only existence was a few lice in his hands.

Without waiting for Yang Gui's orders, the gentry of the city had already stepped forward to drive them away, and the wild monks let them push and shove, but they didn't care, and accidentally looked up at Qiu Ming, and said in surprise: "Senior brother has committed Tai Sui, but I am afraid that my life will not be long, Amitabha." ”
