This time we drank until the sky was dark, and it was not until Wangchun Tower was closed that Yang Yanrong separated from the two of them. Xiao Lei knew that the second brother would leave for Tokyo tomorrow, so he no longer kept him drinking. He returned to the room beautifully.
After taking a hot bath, I lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, just after dawn, Sang Yuchu woke him up. After washing, he put on clean clothes and went out.
Yang Yanrong originally wanted to buy a few horses and ride them to Tokyo, but he didn't know that horses at this time were items under military control. Private buying and selling were strictly prohibited. They were not allowed to buy them at the market. After hearing what Sang Yuchu said, Yang Yanrong had no choice but to
He gave up the idea, thinking that there were still hundreds of miles to go, and felt his head was as big as a bucket. He had no choice but to buy a donkey cart, which cost him twenty taels of silver. Although the money was not much, it was enough for ordinary civilians.
People have been using it for half a year.
After leaving Datong City, they saw Xiao Lei and Xiao Yinping standing on one side. They had obviously been waiting for a long time. Xiao Lei had a weathered look on his face, a scimitar hung diagonally on his waist, and a yellowed wine gourd hung on his waist.
On the other side, he looked a little tired, but with a smile on his face. Xiao Yinping's eight bodyguards also stood quietly aside, looking at every passerby vigilantly.
Yang Yanrong, who was driving the donkey cart, parked the car, jumped out with a smile, walked to the two of them in a few steps, and said with a smile: "I didn't want to disturb the elder brother and the third sister, but I didn't know you were all waiting here. Really."
It’s a sin!”
Xiao Lei laughed, patted Yang Yanrong on the shoulder, and said: "Second brother, the journey is long this time, so bring more dry food with you. Now that the world has just settled down, the road is uneven, and there are quite a few thieves who cut paths and do strongman deeds on the top of the mountain.
"Brother, I don't have anything else to give you. This sword is the royal sword of the Emperor of Liao. See if it fits your hand!" He said and took off the sheathed scimitar from his waist.
Yang Yanrong smiled slightly and took it with both hands. He saw that the knife had a strange shape. The handle was wrapped with gold wire to prevent it from slipping due to sweat. The scabbard was made of unknown wood. It was pitch black and looked extraordinary at first glance.
It is about one meter long. The entire blade is not inlaid or inlaid, and there is no fancy silk. When you pull out the knife, a cold light hits your face. The blade is like autumn water and curves into a beautiful arc. The knife is two fingers wide, but as thin as paper.
It was neither gold nor silver, neither copper nor iron. With Yang Yanrong's knowledge, he couldn't tell what material this scimitar was made of.
"What a knife!" Yang Yanrong couldn't help but praise him. He glanced at Xiao Lei suspiciously and asked, "Brother, you didn't bring a knife with you yesterday, did you? How did you get such a good knife in one night?"
Xiao Lei chuckled and said: "This place is not far from Liaojing. I can go back and forth in one night. Bringing back a mere knife is as easy as searching a bag for something. As long as my second brother likes it, let alone Emperor Liao's sword.
Even if it’s his head, my eldest brother can get it!”
My God! What he said was as if entering the Liao Palace was like entering your backyard. However, he couldn't help but admire this respectable elder brother sincerely, knowing that for his own sake, he traveled thousands of miles to Liao Jing, just to give him a gift.
Taking a good knife for himself, this kindness made his heart warm and his voice choked up. He pretended to smile and said in a hoarse voice: "I like this knife!"
There is no word to describe the brother's kindness, but a simple sentence made Xiao Lei smile. He handed over a big baggage and said: "There are some roast meat and some good wine in it, let's eat on the way."
Say nothing! Yang Yanrong silently took it and put it in the donkey cart, turned around, hugged Xiao Lei fiercely, and said softly: "Brother, come to Tokyo to find me when you have time! I'll give it to you
Make some wine that you have never drunk before! It is guaranteed to be ten times stronger than Fenjiu!" For this big brother, he only likes to make some good wine.
When Xiao Lei heard this, his eyes suddenly shone, he licked his lips involuntarily, and even his voice trembled a little: "Second brother, are you serious about this? Could it be that you have learned how to make vodka and whiskey?". This drunkard.
, I still miss these two wines! Yang Yanrong felt a little sour in his heart, smiled and said: "Although it is not as good as those two wines, I guarantee that once my wine is brewed, it will definitely be the best choice in the entire Song Dynasty and even the entire Song Dynasty.
There is no comparable wine in Daliao."
Okay, okay! Xiao Lei shouted three times, rubbed his hands, and said excitedly: "I will definitely come, I will definitely come! When the time comes, we two brothers will have a good drink!"
Xiao Yinping, who was on the side, also came forward, handed Yang Yanrong a small box, smiled sweetly, and said: "Second brother, the eldest brother has prepared everything, and I don't have anything to give you. This small box will
I’ll give it to you, remember, you can’t open it until ten miles away.”
This ghostly guy! Although Yang Yanrong knew her identity, he still regarded her as his adopted sister. He smiled. Yang Yanrong took the small box and said with a smile: "The smart third sister has spoken.
As the second brother, I have no choice but to listen!"
After saying this, both Xiao Lei and Xiao Yinping laughed and said goodbye to them. Yang Yanrong strode onto the donkey cart and walked forward without looking back.
Yang Yanrong quietly looked back and saw his eldest brother's figure still standing there, waving his arms constantly. He couldn't help but feel a sore nose and almost shed tears. Although the two had only known each other for one day, the relationship between the men was still there.
Love cannot last forever. Some people have known each other for a lifetime, but they are like passers-by. Some people have known each other for only half a day, but it is enough to remember them for a lifetime. Holding back the pain of parting in his heart, Yang Yanrong raised his whip high and whipped her hard.
On the donkey's butt.
Seeing Yang Yanrong's donkey cart gradually disappearing, Xiao Yinping turned back to Xiao Lei and said, "Brother, I have to leave too and go back to Daliao. If I have time, I will come to the Central Plains to have a drink with you and my second brother."
"Haha! Third sister, the second brother just said that he can brew a kind of unparalleled wine. When the time comes, I will ask him for some and send them to the Liao Kingdom for you. Your place is too far away from the Song Dynasty, and it is inconvenient to go back and forth. The eldest brother is strong.
, walk around a lot, but it won’t be in the way." Xiao Lei said cheerfully: "Second sister, please take care of yourself along the way!"
Xiao Yinping smiled brightly and blessed her elder brother. The eight guards who had been waiting at the city gate hurriedly came to greet her, picked her up in the carriage, and went straight away.
Xiao Lei sent the two of them to their separate ways, and stood alone outside the city gate, looking at the gradually increasing number of pedestrians. He was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly burst out laughing, causing the pedestrians to look sideways, thinking that this man must be a madman.
Xiao Lei was not annoyed, he pulled out the wine gourd from his waist, took a sip of wine, laughed loudly, and quickly chased in the direction of Yang Yanrong.
After traveling for more than ten miles, Yang Yanrong remembered the small box that his third sister had given him. He didn't know what was inside, so he asked Ke'er to open it and take a look.
Ke'er nodded gently, gently tore off the seal, and slowly opened the beautifully crafted paper box.
"Wow!" A burst of exclamation came from the car, which startled Yang Yanrong. He quickly stopped the donkey cart, grabbed the curtain of the cart, ducked in and asked, "What happened?"
With a grimace, Ke'er handed the cardboard box to Yang Yanrong and said, "You can see for yourself!"
Yang Yanrong shook his head. He was very surprised by Ke'er's behavior. What was it? It actually made this little girl scream in surprise?
