Going south along the Ji River, it only takes nearly a hundred miles to reach Tangjiang City.
Unlike Fenghuo Border Pass, people who have lived in the prosperous inner city for a long time are not at all worried. Most of them are elegant scholars, gathered in groups, and occasionally they will suddenly have a sudden inspiration and burst out a few lines of poems that they know nothing about.
There is also a rich lady with a servant, who has fallen in love with a certain young man. She is afraid of losing her reserve, so she has to be shy, boasting that she is a bit shy like a Jiangnan girl.
The wheels of the carriage rolled by mercilessly, and even the official lady Li Xiaowan was not interested in the scenery in front of her at this moment.
A round of life and death, compared to the beacon fire at the border, the inner city is a bit too peaceful.
"Brother Mu, tell me, what will happen if those scholars are allowed to fight? Will they die?" Si Hu said in an angry voice, somewhat dissatisfied.
"You won't die, you will turn around and run away." Xu Mu felt a little uncomfortable. It was not because he hated the rich, but when comparing the two, he suddenly found that he preferred the murderous atmosphere at the border.
Of course, everything is for living. Entering the inner city is also a last resort.
"Molly, go forward."
The murderous aura that the group of people had acquired from the border crossing was still far from gone, and was quite incompatible with the appearance of this seemingly prosperous age.
"Like a dog but not like a dog, like a human but not like a human being, they are born with the same divine creature, and humans and dogs are in a dilemma."
A scholar in a luxurious robe turned his head, and when he saw the bow dog on the top of the carriage, he suddenly blurted out.
This incident caused many scholars nearby to cheer and applaud.
Xu Mu frowned, and Si Hu became furious and wanted to grab his sword and jump out of the carriage.
"Si Hu, put the knife away."
Si Hu paused, but he didn't dare to be disobedient, so he could only suppress his blush and sat back down again.
Even at the border, I have never experienced such birdiness.
On the top of the carriage, the ridiculed Bow Dog remained silent and continued to wrap himself in his gray robe, pretending to turn a deaf ear.
Chen Sheng and others also looked bad. They fought several times at the border, and they were all brave men who dared to risk their lives. However, they were so provoked by a few bullshit scholars that they were helpless.
"Why, the countrymen from the border are probably so shocked that they dare not speak when they arrive in a wealthy land." Seven or eight scholars were having another great time.
"Brother Mu?"
"Driving." Xu Mu's expression remained unchanged. These bullshit words were much lower than the beatings of the Internet in the previous life.
"A village woman works as a carriage, with a hemp skirt and a hairpin, so she dare not show her face." A girl carrying a flowered paper umbrella was not very good-looking, but she had the loudest voice.
The traveling carriage suddenly stopped, not because Si Hu wanted to stop, but because Xu Mu grabbed the reins.
Turning his head, Xu Mu saw Jiang Caiwei with a calm face.
"Aren't you angry?"
"Don't be angry." Jiang Caiwei shook her head.
"I'm angry."
Xu Mu got out of the car with a cold face, feeling very uncomfortable. He recalled in the distance the day he first met Jiang Caiwei.
That thin and emaciated figure stood on the roadside carrying firewood in order to survive.
If it weren't for this bullshit world, she should be a young lady from a wealthy family, sitting in the boudoir every day, doing embroidery, reading and entertaining caged birds.
Instead, I have been displaced for two thousand miles and I don’t know when I will return home.
"What do you want!" The ugly girl holding the umbrella was frightened, coyly, and fell towards a scholar.
"I've been at the border for a long time, and I've returned to the inner city for the first time. I want to write a poem to give to the girl."
"You can compose poetry? You are a border barbarian."
Not only the scholars didn't believe it, but also the people from Zhuangzi.
Si Hu yawned and Li Xiaowan pursed her lips.
Jiang Caiwei sat in silence, trying to persuade her, but in the end she didn't. There always seemed to be something different about her own stickman husband.
Only the old scholar scratched his chest, lowered his head with interest, drank wine, and waited for Xu Mu to speak.
"Listen." Xu Mu smiled coldly.
There are 300 Tang poems and Song lyrics. Just a few sentences are enough to crush eight streets.
"The fairy bid farewell to Nantianmen with tears and drifted away to the mortal world."
In just two sentences, the ugly girl holding the umbrella burst into laughter, and her pimples suddenly seemed to burst.
"Why is that bastard still praising others? He's just blind!" Li Xiaowan pouted, "You might as well give it to me as a gift."
"Wan Wan, don't be anxious...just a few more words." Jiang Caiwei stood up suddenly. For some reason, she looked at Xu Mu's back with a bright look in her eyes.
"Accidentally fell into the animal track, pig-nosed, bull-eyed, dog washbasin."
puff--
On the top of the carriage, the old scholar spit out a mouthful of wine and almost choked himself to death.
The ugly girl, who was originally full of expectations, was startled after hearing the last two sentences, covering her face and crying loudly. She didn't even bother to pick up the umbrella, so she pretended to jump into Jijiang River.
Fortunately, two scholars held her tightly.
"Driving." Xu Mu said with a cold face, just forget about scolding him. It doesn't matter if a man is thick-skinned, but if he scolds his wife, it's embarrassing, so he can only scold him back.
Many scholars who were originally gathered together did not dare to stop each other anymore, and got out of the way with some fear.
It's rare that a poem can make a girl want to jump into a river.
"Xu, Xu Lang, thank you." Jiang Caiwei blushed. She did not expect that Xu Mu would protect her like this.
"You're welcome, it's just a little effort."
"Hey, disciple, if my aunt is scolded by others, would you like to compose a poem and scold her back?"
Xu Mu turned his head in disgust, "Probably not. I wish you could cry when you get scolded."
"The disciple will be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts!"
Li Xiaowan gritted her teeth, her eyes were red, and she hugged her knees and stopped talking for a while.
"Xu Lang, don't be angry with Wanwan."
Xu Mu was a little speechless. How could a good official lady be so crying?
"Chen Sheng, urge the car behind you to follow closely. After another hundred miles, we will reach Tangjiang."
"We, the Xu Family Winery, will make a big name for ourselves in Tangjiang City within two months."
In this great dynasty, when it comes to distilled liquor, he is the only one.
Xu Mu couldn't help but start to look forward to what a spectacular scene it would be when Zui Tianxian became popular in the inner city.
However, after entering Tangjiang City, Xu Mu still had to be careful. Compared with the inner city area, which has a steep border and a stable environment, even with a notarization, it is estimated that the possession of too many iron weapons would not be allowed.
At that time, it can only be filled into the official warehouse in the city.
"My boss, people from February Spring have also moved here."
"Hezili."
Xu Mu's face paused slightly, and he looked down along the river embankment. Sure enough, he saw an eight-oared river boat with white sails hanging high.
A figure holding the sleeves of his robe raised his head and happened to look at him.
"I heard from Shopkeeper Zhou that the original ancestral home of Master Lu was Tangjiang City."
Xu Mu narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, wherever he went, he would encounter bullshit. No wonder, when the city of Wangzhou was destroyed earlier, the insidious Master Lu was nowhere to be seen.
"Si Hu, you are strong, pick up a few stones and throw them down."
Si Hu laughed a few times, and indeed he picked up the stone and threw it "bang bang bang bang" a few times. The originally human-looking Master Lu was so frightened that he picked up his head and ran hurriedly into the cabin.
