After a simple breakfast, I heard that Yueyi Tower was gradually getting busy——
The benefactors who stayed overnight left one after another, the cleaning staff shuttled around, the tired Orchid was lazing on the couch on the parrot parlor stand in the elegant house... all kinds of sounds surged up, floating and noisy, making Yang Chaoxi feel upset and angry.
.
I sat cross-legged several times, hoping to have good luck and get rid of troubles. However, the benzoin that burned in the elegant house last night had long been adsorbed on the curtains, quilts and pillows. At this time, it was stirred by the morning breeze and spread out again, rushing to go.
Yang Chaoxi drilled it into his nostrils.
Yang Chaoxi felt uncertain, secretly comforting himself that "this is not a place for pure cultivation." He immediately got off the bed, wrapped the Shadow Bearing Sword again, and carried it behind his back. He touched his chest again to confirm the pure gold fire talisman given by Liu Xiaomu.
Shang Zai just left Yueyi Tower.
Yueyi Tower is more than ten miles away from Ningrenfang, where Qin Mansion is located.
It was still early at this time and the scorching sun had not yet come out. The cool breeze crossed Luoshui and spread on the street corners, bringing a rare coolness to this early summer.
Although Yang Zhaoxi went back to resume his life, he was not too anxious. He just walked slowly southward. After passing Xinzhong Bridge, he came to the flat, wide and straight Changxiamen Street with thick shade like a canopy. Looking at both sides of the street
, the scenes that have happened recently in several places that I am familiar with appear in my mind uncontrollably:
There are Zeshanfang where a group of Taoists fight at night, Xiushanfang where they pretend to be Zoroastrian under a pseudonym, and Dunhuafang where Linji Temple is located...
Now that the revenge of Shui Xizi and Luo Rou has been avenged, and the battle between Zoroastrianism and Taiweigong has come to an end for the time being, Luoyang City is like a huge pool of water, dragging itself into it. As soon as a few water plants are freed, there is another
More water plants wrapped around him, stumbling around him and making it difficult for him to break free for a while.
He couldn't help but secretly thought: If he had known that the world was so complicated, that everything was colluding, and everyone was connected, he would rather hide in the mountains and practice Taoism than travel down the mountains.
However, the matter has come to this, even if there is regret in the heart, it is difficult to recover. I can only sigh that people and things are like flowing clouds, changing in an instant, and time is like running water, there is no return...
Yang Zhaoxi was walking along the street with his thoughts flying, and unknowingly he had reached the vicinity of Kangsu Square. Just as he was about to bypass the square and turn west, he heard a burst of shouting coming from the square.
.
When passers-by heard the sound, they stopped and turned to look.
I saw a beggar with dysentery running out of the shop first, dragging a bamboo stick in one hand and a rope in the other.
A noose was tied to the end of the bamboo stick, and the noose was tightly tied, holding a thin dog. The thin dog dug its four paws on the ground and scratched randomly, but to no avail, and "嘤woo~嘤woo~" kept coming out of its throat.
Wail.
At the other end of the rope, two beggars, one tall and one short, were holding hands. The beggars' eyes were all white, and they were poking the ground with wooden sticks in their hands. They turned out to be two blind men. The two blind beggars had disheveled hair and their robes were full of holes.
, let alone the mud. Judging from the number of noisy flies, you can tell that the two blind beggars are extremely slovenly.
However, Yang Chaoxi recognized at a glance that the beggar with scabies was the beggar's helper, and the two blind beggars turned out to be the "Two Heroes of Bazhou" Wang Jie and Bai Ganzhan, whom he had not seen for a long time!
The "Two Heroes of Bazhou" ran barefoot on the street covered with gravel and fine debris without feeling their feet hurt. With the help of wooden sticks, they were not slow on their feet. And in Wang Yao's left hand, he was still carrying
A big rooster with a red face, its wings were caught at this time, and it was flapping desperately, but in vain.
The three of them rushed out of the square gate and crossed the street to hide in the Zhengsu Square in the east.
At this time, an exquisitely decorated oil-walled vehicle came speeding from the south, its horses neighing with the sound of hoofbeats. It seemed that no one was there, and it was about to cross the street. Niu Fengnian was agile, and he only had to pounce forward.
They could avoid it. However, the "Bazhou Double Heroes" could not see, and their reactions were not as good as ordinary people's. They were about to be trampled to the ground by a car!
At the critical moment, between lightning and flint.
But Niu Fengnian stood up, turned behind him, opened his arms, and rushed towards the "Bazhou Double Heroes", knocking the two men, one tall and one short, to the side of the street.
And the speeding car happened to pass by the three of them. If it had been a little later, even half a minute, the three of them would have been seriously injured today.
At this moment, the group of servants guarding the courtyard had carried sticks and other objects and chased them out of Kangsufang. The leader ran and shouted: "Catch these chicken thieves! They are stinky beggars who can't get food, so they will do anything."
I'm here to steal my thoughts! When my brothers catch me, I must break my legs first and then twist them to Wuhoupu..."
Some beggars on the roadside came over after hearing the news and tried to stop them. Although they were holding bamboo sticks and wooden sticks, they knew that they were in the wrong. They surrounded them for only a moment before they were driven away by the group of housekeepers with sticks.
When Niu Fengnian helped "Bazhou Shuangjie" to his feet, these servants guarding the courtyard had surrounded the three of them. The leader did not hesitate, waved his arm, and immediately shouted: "Hit me hard!"
As soon as the words fell, dozens of rough men rained down sticks from their hands.
Niu Fengnian knew that things were going to be difficult today, so he immediately said to the "Two Heroes of Bazhou": "You two brothers, we can only fight! If you can survive, let's talk about today's events in detail!"
While speaking, Niu Fengnian shook the bamboo stick in his hand, and the noose at the end immediately fell off. Immediately, he raised the bamboo stick and swung it in all directions. Every time he hit the stick, his head was bleeding, his elbows were broken, and his knees were broken. At the same time, there were also
Many sticks hit his shoulders, back, and lower back, and he felt burning pain from time to time, but he had no time to care about it and could only grit his teeth and harden.
Seeing his bravery, some servants and guards were unwilling to fight head-on. They immediately turned around and surrounded the "Two Heroes of Bazhou" with their backs pressed against each other...
However, it is said that the "Two Heroes of Bazhou", Wang Jie and Bai Gangan, were sprinkled with quicklime on their cheeks and blinded by quicklime in their business in Yingchuan that day; and because of their poor martial arts, Yuan Zhongwu was injured by a gangster. Yes.
That night, he was driven out by the manager Wu of the mansion.
Originally, if quicklime gets into your eyes, you must immediately drop sesame oil to isolate the lime from the eyeballs; immediately race against time and rinse with plenty of water to prevent your eyes from being burned.
But when the "Bazhou Double Heroes" were attacked, they were already panicking. They just rubbed and scratched, and rubbed quicklime deep into their eyes, and scratched many wounds on their faces. The quicklime mixed with tears and plasma, and immediately boiled.
The pain is worse than before.
In addition, Manager Wu had long been dissatisfied with the way the two behaved. Instead of asking a doctor to treat them, he instead asked the servants in the mansion to take care of the hospital, tied their hands and feet, and threw them out of the mansion, leaving them to fend for themselves.
So overnight, the eyes of the "Two Heroes of Bazhou" were burned out, and their faces were corroded with holes. When the two of them calmed down, broke away from the rope and reached the hospital room, the doctor except
Although I can give them some medicine for the sores, there is nothing I can do to save them.
From then on, the two of them were blind and lost the protection of the Yuan government, so they had to live on the streets and start begging for food. Because of their blindness and having never been named in the beggar gang, they were often subjected to other
The bullying of beggars.
Although the two traveled to various places and markets, due to lack of experience, they were often unable to get anything, and instead were driven away. As a result, they were often hungry and full, and they were even more miserable.
After several discussions, the two finally decided on the division of labor:
Bai Gangzhan was tall, well-spoken and well-mannered, so he was responsible for leading the way. He also asked for water, directions and food from passers-by and households.
Wang Yao has a bad temper and a good face, so he is naturally attached to the back. Although he is unwilling to open his mouth, when a wealthy family lets a dog bite him, he can rely on his short stature, rough skin and thick flesh to identify the location by listening to the sound.
The trick is to use the wooden stick in your hand to drive away the vicious dog.
When they woke up that morning, they came to Kangsufang and had not eaten anything all day and night.
Just as he was about to repeat his old trick of going from house to house begging for food, Wang Yaoji heard the high-pitched crow of cocks nearby without stopping for a long time.
Based on the experience gained step by step during these many days, Wang Jiaozhen knew that the chicken was no more than two feet away from the two of them. It should be a rooster that flew over the wall of a certain family's house. At that time, he was salivating.
After a brief discussion with Bai Ganzhan, they decided on a strategy:
First, he pointed the white pole in the direction of the rooster, quickly walked around behind the chicken, and drove it over; then, with the help of the wooden stick in his hand, Wang Gaohe used his set of marksmanship, and suddenly struck out, knocking the chicken unconscious. Then two people
People can then find a deserted place, make a fire, roast it, divide it and eat it.
Although the plan was flawless, something went wrong during execution.
Just when the two caught the rooster and were about to take it away, they were spotted by a nurse from the family. They immediately released their fine dogs and ordered a group of servants to chase after them.
The two of them couldn't see anything, so they ran away like headless flies. After bumping into the wall several times, the thin dog caught up with them and bit down on Lai Bai's calf.
At this time, the beggar gang, who was in charge of alms-feeding for a good harvest, happened to be passing by with other gang members. He saw two beggars being bullied by vicious dogs from a distance, and he became hostile at that time. Without thinking much, he took out the rope and tied them up.
He lassoed the horse, rushed forward, and quickly subdued the thin dog.
Only then did I realize that the two beggars were not only strangers to each other, but they were actually two blind men. Looking at the rooster flapping in Wang Zhao's hand, I immediately understood most of it and said angrily:
"Two brothers! Doesn't acting like this ruin the reputation of our beggar gang? Although we are beggars, we disdain to do such sneaky things..."
However, before he finished speaking, Wuyangyang's servant, Gu Yuan, had already arrived.
Niu Fengnian didn't care to elaborate and immediately ordered the group of beggars to disperse. He threw out a rope again and asked the two heroes of Bazhou to hold on tightly. He immediately picked up the two of them and ran away from the house. Thus the scene just happened.
The short stick howled and the long stick roared, attacking all around the "Bazhou Double Heroes".
The two of them knew that they had gotten into trouble today and were being chased here, and they felt like they were desperate. Immediately, they each waved their wooden sticks and started to fight with the guards who were rushing up to them. Their ferocity was unmatched.
day.
However, these servants guarding the courtyard seem to have some origins, and when they try to avoid them, they actually have a military style!
Coupled with their large numbers, Niu Fengnian and the "Bazhou Double Heroes" were unable to escape for a while and fell into a bitter battle. If this situation continued, sooner or later they would be defeated and captured.
Yang Zhaoxi sighed, stepped out, and took the lead to rush into the noisy formation on Niu Fengnian's side, using the "Seizing Fist". In just a few breaths, he snatched the sticks from the hands of many servants and guards, and they were far away.
Throw it away.
When Niu Fengnian saw that it was Yang Chaoxi, the elder of Ke Qing, he immediately felt relieved: "Elder Yang! Lao Niu is really lucky today and bumped into you here. Otherwise, it would be difficult to escape."
Yang Chaoxi kept holding her hands and smiled slightly: "I recognize those two people, they are not kind people. But I don't know why Niu Zhang Bo got mixed up with them?"
Niu Fengnian was about to reply when he saw a man suddenly walking out of the servants' courtyard and shouting: "Brothers, stop!"
