Chapter 716: Don't Do Good at Home
Chapter 720
Li Xingya's pomp and circumstance when he went out was not something that Cheng Dalei could compare, and he selected a few old and serious ones from among the disciples of the academy, plus the good players in the Cao Gang, and gathered hundreds of people. When there are many people, things become complicated, and the clothing, food, housing and transportation of these 100 people need to be considered.
So a team of people and horses set foot on the road to Chang'an. At the same time, princes from all walks of life also hit the road.
Inevitably, there are two families fighting for swords, and when such a thing happens, they have to temporarily stop the two families. Coincidentally, I met again on the way to Chang'an, and I had to go in with a white knife and a red knife out.
Cheng Dalei and the five of them walked all the way to the east, and for two or three days, they had entered the territory of Jingzhou. There was a heavy rain, and the five had to hide from the rain in a dilapidated temple.
The heavy rain poured down, and the head and face were smashed down. The eaves rained into a curtain, and the temple was in disrepair, with heavy rain outside and light rain inside the temple. The dry food they carried with them was also soaked a lot, and several people were embarrassed.
Cheng Dalei stood in front of the gate, looked at the pouring rain outside, and grinned: "This rain really doesn't come at the right time, if it can't stop for a while, we will only spend the night in this temple." ”
Cui Baiyu pursed his lips and said in his heart: If you don't do good things when you go out, it will rain heavily outside, if you do a few more good things, you won't catch up with this heavy rain.
"Hey, as the saying goes, the dragon moves in the clouds, the tiger moves in the wind, and the big boss is like a dragon and tiger, and it is a good sign to encounter such a rain. "Liu Facai.
"Uh...... Haha, it makes sense, it makes sense. ”
Under the black veil, Cui Baiyu's mouth was almost to his ears.
"However, this rain doesn't end, and it's not a way?"
"The wind never ends, the showers don't end all day, and it won't last long for such heavy rain. "Liu Facai.
Coincidentally, Liu Facai was right, this rain came and went in a hurry, and when the clouds opened and the fog cleared, it was already dusk and evening. The colorful glow in the west burned into blood, and it was also extraordinarily spectacular to look at the past.
"Alright, let's go a little further and see if anyone stays. ”
Along the way, Cheng Dalei was also miserable, and he could find a place to stay and rest for a night, and it was not too late to hurry.
The five people were led by Cheng Dalei, who felt like a small team learning from the experience and embarked on the road to the east.
It was also luck, after walking three or five miles, a large manor appeared in front of me. The tiled houses are continuous, the green willows are shady, and there are few small bridges and flowing water like the south of the Yangtze River in the north, but more than a dozen courtyards are connected together, which is also a style of its own.
"Liu Facai, you go to the front and ask, see if his family can let us stay overnight?" Cheng Dalei said, now hungry, and looking forward to some hot soup and hot noodles, and then be able to sleep well.
Liu Facai agreed, walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard, and saw a plaque of "Chen Zhai" hanging in front of the door. He raised his hand and patted the door, and out of the door came an old man who was over the age of six.
"Uncle, we are guests visiting relatives in the capital, can we stay overnight at your place, now the road is slippery on this rainy day, and we can't walk. ”
The old man glanced at Cheng Dalei in the distance, and said: "Our master has always been good at doing good deeds, since it is a guest on the road to stay overnight, it is okay, but there are some things today, it is inconvenient to leave a few guests, if you want to eat, the house can prepare it." ”
"Hey, since my uncle has already given up a meal, why don't you stay with us for another night, we won't eat for nothing, and we will give you more silver when the time comes. ”
Liu Facai took out a small silver ingot from his sleeve and shook it in front of the old man. When he went out this time, Cheng Dalei still brought more money, and there were hundreds of small ingots like this.
"Oh, do you know what kind of place this is, my lord is called Chen Million, the family is full of grain and rice, piles of gold and silver, rare your little silver, I originally wanted to keep you for a meal, but you actually show off the silver, go quickly, and there is no meal. ”
Liu Facai's eyes lit up when he heard this, there were mountains of grain and rice, piles of gold and silver, this could be robbed. This place is not far from Liangzhou City, and the rapid march will arrive in a few days.
"Uh, stand down. ”
At this time, an old man walked out of the door, wearing silk and satin, although he was a little older, but he was extremely well maintained.
"Chen Zhong, what's the noise in front of the door. ”
The servant named Chen Zhong whispered a few words in his ear. The man looked at Liu Facai, and then at Cheng Dalei in the distance.
"Chen Zhong, this is yours, when you go out, who also has a narrow time, it is convenient for others to be inconvenient for yourself, so what if you leave a few guests to stay overnight. ”
said that he arched his hand at Liu Facai and said: "Don't blame the guests, the country contempt, don't understand the reason, and the guests don't have the same knowledge as them." ”
Liu Facai also hurriedly returned the salute, looking at the meaning of the old man's words, he also looked like a character who wandered the rivers and lakes.
Cheng Dalei and a few people greeted him, and the old man knew who to talk to, so he said to Cheng Dalei: "Old Chen Deshan, a few guests have the right to stay here for the night." It's just that no matter what happens tonight, I also ask a few guests not to come out, and I also think about the lives of a few people. ”
Cheng Dalei cupped his fists and returned the salute: "Thank you, uncle, is there something going on in the house, if it is useful to us, we can also make a difference." ”
"Little things, little things, don't dare to trouble a few guests. Chen Deshan waved his hand at Chen Zhong: "Ah Zhong, please invite a few guests into the house and arrange meals, don't wait for you." ”
The servant named Chen Zhong led the way in front and arranged a remote courtyard for the five of them, which was very clean. Killing chickens and slaughtering sheep, the soup was served in a short time, and the food in the north was not as delicate as that of the south of the Yangtze River, it was nothing more than heavy salt and heavy brine, and the wine was also sufficient.
Seeing that there was no one left and right, Liu Facai said: "Big boss, what's going on in this house?"
Cheng Dalei pursed his lips and smiled, "What do you see?"
Liu Facai thought for a while: "Although Chen Deshan is over the age of sixteen, his body is not crooked, his back is not hunched, his breath is long and powerful, and he is afraid that he will also be a practitioner when he is young." ”
Cheng Dalei nodded, after all, Liu Facai also came out of the toad village, and he still has this bit of eyesight.
"That Chen Zhong is not an ordinary person, his eyes are gathered but not scattered, as if he also has kung fu. Cui Baiyu said suddenly.
Liu Facai's attention rested on Chen Deshan, but he didn't pay attention to the old servant. Cui Baiyu also proves her worth, and the taste of being called and drunk is actually not pleasant.
"Big boss, do you want me to go and find out what happened to them, the old man is good, we have to help them for this meal. ”
"Rest easy. Cheng Dalei waved his hand: "They don't want to say, and they may not be able to ask anything, no matter what happens, we won't know until the evening." ”
As he spoke, Cheng Dalei handed a chicken leg to Cui Baiyu: "Come, you said well just now, reward you." ”
