Ye Shishi was angry and funny. She turned around with a squeak and stopped warming up the brazier. Like every angry girl, her body was rising and falling with anger, as if she was saying: "Come and coax me."
.”
But after all, Zhang Xiaowu never used to coax people. It wasn't that he didn't have this habit, but that he suddenly found that he seemed to like to quarrel with her.
This is a dangerous signal. This signal seems to tell him that he is very interested in this girl. He can't help but make the girl angry or smile. This feeling is what he is looking for in Wanqiu and Yunyan.
While he was warming the brazier, he reflected on why he had been feeling uneasy these past few days. Maybe all his previous women, including Jiuer, were arranged for him by others, or they took the initiative.
Delivered to my door. But he has never pursued any girl, nor has he ever had any interest in any girl.
But now, he suddenly found that he couldn't help but want to make her laugh and quarrel with her.
"That's sloppy."
After Zhang Xiaowu summarized his recent state, he came to the conclusion that he was not sure whether he liked this girl or whether he liked the ambiguous feeling that he could only imagine but couldn't get. As an old man who has lived two lives,
Men, Zhang Xiaowu understands very well that in fact, the favorite relationship of many older men is this kind of vague ambiguity.
Young men like beauties and their bodies. In order to get beauties, they can even tolerate girls having bad tempers and making many unreasonable demands. But older men like even more what girls bring to them mentally.
This is the reason why a wife is worse than a concubine than a thief.
"My mentality is getting old." Zhang Xiaowu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I fell in love with Xiao Hua. It's really... I'm getting older, and time is not forgiving. Even though I have a body of twenty-three, I am still forty.
It’s a year-old mentality.”
"Rumble--"
Thunder sounded again. This time it was raining, no longer mixed with snowflakes, but the rain was bitingly cold. The cold wind blew in through the crack in the door, and Zhang Xiaowu even felt it was like a knife cutting him. He turned around and looked
He looked at Ye Shishi and saw that Ye Shishi was looking at him blankly, but his eyes were dull. It seemed that he was not looking at himself, but in a daze. He moved the charcoal basin in front of Ye Shishi and said, "Grill it."
Let's warm ourselves up by the fire."
"Thank you." Ye Shishi came back to her senses and did not dare to look into his eyes, but heard him say: "We will add five to the cost of the charcoal basin. Just give me two hundred and fifty Wen." Ye Shishi said.
Shishi was so angry that she almost fell into the brazier. She took out two hundred and fifty Wen from her pocket, threw it over and said, "Two hundred and fifty for you."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Why are you scolding people?"
"Who scolded you?"
"You scolded me two hundred and five."
"What does two hundred and five mean? Is it a curse word? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned for a moment. It turned out that two hundred and fifty is not a curse word in this world. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "I'll hire a sedan for you - you pay for it. If you don't have the money, I can lend it with interest."
Not high."
Ye Shishi was moved and angry at the same time. She thought to herself, "What's going on with this guy? It's up to me if I don't reveal your true face."
Zhang Xiaowu went to the shopkeeper and asked about the bearer.
In the huge Longdu City, there are many businesses, so there are naturally dedicated bearers. However, for the common people, the bearers in this era are like Porsche 911 taxis. They are expensive and cannot afford to take them, so everyone drives on their own. But for residents,
For the shopkeeper, it was easy to find the bearer, but he only had to wait for half an hour. Zhang Xiaowu said it didn't matter, and the Fangcheng gate would not be closed after an hour.
"Generally speaking, no, but it's not necessarily the case in this kind of crazy weather." The shopkeeper smiled, "Our Longdu City does not close the gate of Fangcheng on the first and fifteenth day of every month. The rest of the time, it closes at Xu o'clock and Mao o'clock the next day.
Open the door."
"What day does it fall today?"
"The fifth day of the lunar month."
"So it won't be on all the time?"
"It might even close earlier."
"These people are not punctual."
"Who says it's not? If you ask me, the gate of Longdu City should not be closed, so that it can be more prosperous. Once the gate is closed, our business will not be good."
Zhang Xiaowu was talking nonsense with the shopkeeper when he suddenly heard a scream, and then there was no sound. With his sharp ears, he immediately heard that the sound seemed to be made by Ye Shishi, and immediately ran back, pushing the door open and missing Ye Shishi. He
He immediately realized that those Jianghu people must have robbed Ye Shishi. It was raining heavily today and it was difficult to find traces. He had to make a decision immediately.
Without any time to think, he turned around and ran out. He jumped up and climbed up to the roof in twos and twos. His eagle-like eyes were shining brightly. After turning around, he immediately found several people wearing bamboo hats in a small alley.
A sack, judging from the shape of the sack, there was a person inside. He ran along the roof and the wall, moved around, and actually performed parkour moves that he had seen on mobile TV in his previous life.
Zhang Xiaowu naturally cannot parkour, but his body can meet the requirements of parkour. He is strong, flexible and quick to react. Especially his dynamic capture ability is extremely accurate. When he is focused, he can clearly see the raindrops falling slowly.
.
The gangsters never expected that Zhang Xiaowu would catch up or even be discovered. They ran out of Guirenfang desperately. There was a carriage parked outside the gate of the city. Several people threw Ye Shishi into the carriage.
Then they each mounted a horse and left. Zhang Xiaowu followed closely behind and jumped onto the carriage. The driver felt the carriage sinking and almost fell off the shaft. He immediately asked: "Ding Fu,
See what’s going on behind the scenes?”
"good."
The man named Ding Fu reined in the horse's head and looked back, only to see a big hand rushing towards him. He was caught in the face before he could react, and then there was a click, and Ding Fu's neck was broken.
Zhang Xiaowu then punched open the rear door of the carriage and saw a sack huddled in the corner. Two fierce women scratched it with their claws and teeth. Zhang Xiaowu didn't like fighting with women. This woman likes to scratch people and is easily beaten.
The person was disfigured, so his attack must be a dead hand. He deflected the attacks of the shrews with two fists, then stretched out his right index finger and stabbed the eyes of the two shrews like a dagger.
The two shrews were stabbed in one eye before they could even resist. They immediately covered their bleeding eyes and started wailing. Zhang Xiaowu grabbed the two shrews by their collars and threw them out of the carriage. Then he kicked them
Kicking open the front door of the carriage, the door knocked the coachman to the ground, and the wheels of the carriage happened to press the coachman's leg.
There was a "click" and the coachman's leg was also crushed.
