The Bloody Road to Longevity Chapter 3: Holiday


Although these people are abominable, they are dead and dead. Once they die, everything is gone. Jiang Xiaobai couldn't bear their corpses exposed in the wilderness, so he pulled a few corpses over and threw them into the pit, but uphold the principle of waste and shameful , I found all the money on their bodies, not much, four gold coins, nine silver coins, and a dozen copper coins. Seeing that the five of them were lying in a pit and didn't feel crowded, Jiang Xiaobai was a little puzzled. Are they really digging their own graves, and digging the pit for five people's share?

When the pit was filled with soil, Jiang Xiaobai was a little hungry. Although the roe deer on the bonfire was still fragrant, he was afraid to eat it for fear of being poisonous. Fortunately, there was still prey, so he peeled a rabbit. Baked and eaten.

After eating and drinking, the drowsiness struck, and after a short rest, the sky gradually became brighter. Jiang Xiaobai packed up, led a horse, and went back.

At noon, Jiang Xiaobai arrived outside Qingliang City. Although his body was only gone for one day, his consciousness had been gone for more than 20 years. Everything looked so familiar, yet so unfamiliar.

As soon as he entered the city gate, several children on the side of the road saw him. They were very excited and shouted: "Little Hou (Monkey) - Lord (Yeah) -, Little Monkey - Yea -" and then Then he clapped his hands and sang the tongue twister: "A monkey ran down the mountain, a prince walked out of the city, and when he walked to the city gate, they met each other, the monkey looked at the Hou, the Hou looked at the monkey, the Hou stomped his feet and ran into the city, the monkey scratched his head and looked at him. Walking in the mountains, I don't know if the monkey is afraid of the Hou or the Hou is afraid of the monkey..."

If it were the past, Jiang Xiaobai would definitely rush over and scold him. If the adults were not there, he would slap each person. But at this time, he smiled slightly, shook his head, ignored these children, and went straight away. Looking back on the past, it is very sad.

Passing by a steamed bun shop, there are several steamers outside, now it's past the meal time, there is no business, and inside sits a middle-aged woman staring at the street in a daze.

Jiang Xiaobai was bumpy on the road for a long time and felt hungry, so he stepped forward and said, "Madam, give me five buns."

The proprietress is an honest person, she stood up with a look of embarrassment and said: "Little Marquis, you are a high-ranking Marquis, we are just ordinary people, and we have to support our family. We really want to drink the northwest wind when we go down."

Jiang Xiaobai said: "How much do I owe you?"

The proprietress thought about it, raised three fingers, and said, "It's not too much, only 30 copper coins, but we run a small business and can't make so much money in a few days."

Jiang Xiaobai also convinced himself at this time, even buying steamed buns on credit, the key is so much credit, this feeling is like instant noodles on credit on earth, which makes him very ashamed. He hurriedly took out a silver coin from his pocket, threw it on the table, and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot! Get me five buns, and don't look for the rest of the money, even if it's interest!"

One silver coin can be folded into a hundred copper coins, the proprietress was slightly startled, looked at him, then looked at the silver coin, and hurriedly picked it up to check whether it was true or not, she was overjoyed when she saw it was true, and said with a smile: "I It is estimated that Xiaohouye has forgotten a lot, and he must have forgotten. Xiaohouye is a dragon and a phoenix. How could he rely on me for such a small amount of money! Xiaohouye, wait a moment, I will give you twenty buns , all the meat for you."

Jiang Xiaobai said: "No, five is enough!

The proprietress didn't insist any longer, so she brought him five meat buns.

Jiang Xiaobai led the horse and walked while eating, when he suddenly saw a sign posted on the corner, a few people were watching, he stretched his neck and glanced at it, but it was news that Lengyan Palace was recruiting disciples once in a hundred years. And only recruit female disciples who have already opened up the space.

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, thinking that this notice is just a perfunctory one. In Qingliang City, let alone a woman who is a man, it will take many years for one or two people to appear. Whether this notice is posted or not is an effect.

Walking through several streets and alleys, after eating a few buns, we arrived at Qinglianghou Mansion.

The gate of Hou's mansion was open. Jiang Xiaobai was about to enter the door with his horse when he heard a noise from the yard. When he entered the door, he saw a dozen people standing on the road, surrounded by two people in a fan shape. It was none other than Feng Zhengming, the old housekeeper who was almost sold by him. Another is the old housekeeper's son, Rumor.

Both of them have messy hair, blue noses and swollen faces, probably just beaten by this gang. The old butler was full of anger and said, "I warn you, if you don't leave the Hou Mansion, I will report to the officials!"

Most of the dozen or so people Jiang Xiaobai knew were local gangsters in this area, and the leader was Wu Da.

I heard Wu Da sneer and said, "Reporting to an official? Paying off debts is a matter of course, not to mention reporting to an official. Even if it is reported to the King of Heaven, I am not afraid."

The old housekeeper said: "You can ask the young master to ask for the debt, but this mansion is still given by the late emperor, and none of you can disturb it, otherwise it will be blasphemy!"

Wu Dao: "Are you scaring me when I think I am? Desecrate the holy prestige? You **** live in a dignified mansion~IndoMTL.com~ This is blasphemy against holy prestige. Don't worry, I am against the holy prestige. The Hou Mansion is not interested, I won't tear it down, I don't think there is anything to pay for in this Hou Mansion, so I'll just take a look at it, I think the money the little Hou Ye owes me will not be repaid in this lifetime, I can find two random things to mortgage, the meaning is enough, who asked us to come out and mix, always the meaning is the first?"

The old housekeeper said angrily: "You are dreaming, unless you step over my body, you don't want to take away the things in the Hou Mansion!"

Wu Da snorted: "You should be loyal as a watchdog! Old guy, I warn you, don't toast, don't eat and drink fine."

Just as the old housekeeper was about to speak, Rumor said, "Boss Wu, don't deceive people too much. My young master is also the prince of the imperial seal. It won't do you any good if you make a big mess." /

Wu Da seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, he laughed and said: "Master Hou? It's just that you father and son still remember him as Master Hou. You go to the street and ask the three-year-old child to see if they still know him. Isn't he a Marquis? I guess they all thought he was just a monkey trick." After speaking, he laughed again.

Feng Yan said angrily: "You..." but was speechless to refute.

Jiang Xiaobai walked over slowly, and said faintly as he walked, "It seems that Boss Wu is getting more and more confused now, and he doesn't even care about Ben Hou."

It was only then that everyone noticed him, and they all turned to look at him, and said anxiously: "Young master, hurry up, I will bear you here."

Jiang Xiaobai didn't stop, but still said calmly: "This is the Qinglianghou mansion, and this prince is the Qinglianghou. Looking at the entire Mid-Xia Empire, this prince is also under one person, above ten thousand people, the heaven here, It's my heaven, the earth here is my earth, I would like to see who ate the guts of a bear and a leopard and dared to call for wind and rain in my heaven and earth?"
