Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2243 Fate

 “Then let’s go.”

Liu Xing once again called Yingjiang back in mid-air, and then led everyone back to the broken bridge. At this time, the broken bridge was almost repaired. It only needed to be reinforced with wooden boards before he could try to cross the river. .

The young people who wanted to join the convoy before now also stepped forward to help with great eyesight, and had a good conversation with Wang Wu and others who were working together.

 So when Wang Wu saw Liu Xing coming back, he immediately asked the person next to him to say hello to Liu Xing.

“Master Xiaowei, thank you for your willingness to take us in.”

The young man saluted Liu Xing very respectfully, and then said in a sincere tone: "On the next moon, I am willing to do my best for the captain."

 Your surname is Yue?

Liu Xing looked at this young man with some surprise. He didn't expect his last name to be so special.

At this moment, Miao Fei on the side seemed to know what Liu Xing was surprised about, so he stood up and spoke: "Oh? Your kid's surname is Yue? Then weren't you lying just now? You know, in today's New Dragon Empire , there are probably no more than 500 serious people with the surname Yue, because only those who first got the Moon God fragments dared to surname Yue, and all of these people with the surname Yue in today's Yueshan City are An existence that can move the wind and rain.”

So this is ah.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and suddenly became interested in Yue Ming in front of him, because according to Miao Fei, the surname Yue is more like an exclusive title. Only those who got the moon fragments and their descendants can have the surname Yue. , this is a bit like the ancient times in the real world. Many people used their positions as their surnames. For example, compound surnames with the word "SI" are basically like this! This is even more true in the West. For example, Smith is a blacksmith, Cook is a cook, and Hunter is a hunter.

Therefore, regardless of ancient and modern times, most of the original surnames came from occupation or place names.

 Obviously, the same is true for the Yue surname, because the first and subsequent people with the Yue surname are basically the managers of the moon fragments. They are also the "Book of Rites" in each Yueshan City today, and are responsible for various matters related to the moon night celebrations.

So Liu Xing can understand why Miao Fei's reaction was so big, because Yue Ming did not mention his surname Yue before, and also said that he was just an ordinary person. This was obviously a lie, unless he was There is another hidden story.

 So Liu Xing didn't say much, just looked at Yueming with an intriguing expression.

As a young man who had lied, Yue Ming was naturally unable to stabilize himself at this time, so he quickly explained: "It's like this. Although my surname is Yue, I can only be regarded as a side branch among the side branches. Usually I am just a side branch." I can go back to my hometown to receive a moon cake during the moon night celebration, and then wait until the end of the year to receive a regular payment, and in the end there will be no end."

“Oh, I see, the ancestor of your branch should be Yuehua, right?”

Miao Fei seemed to have thought of something, so he slapped his thigh and said, "If that's really the case, then I think you are telling the truth."

“Yes, Yuehua is my great-grandmother.”

Yue Ming sighed and said helplessly: "Well, my great-aunt is also a strange woman, because the only way for the son-in-law of our Yue family is to marry into the family, but my great-aunt insists on not taking the ordinary way. Then she eloped with my great-grandfather, and then they went to live in other places for more than 20 years... After that, although my great-grandmother still returned to the Yue family, it was just a name, so our branch It can be said that he is an outsider of the Yue family with the surname Yue."

 Isn’t this the story of Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun?

Liu Xing immediately thought of Sima Xiangru, who was known as the "Fu Sheng". The most famous story about him is Fengqiuhuang, which is the love story between him and Zhuo Wenjun.

But, no matter from the perspective of modern people or ancient people, what Sima Xiangru did at the time was very unorthodox. If we want to make an unreliable analogy, it is equivalent to a young man running without riding a will-o'-the-wisp. Your family had a meal, and then your daughter was abducted. . . You must know that although Sima Xiangru was well-known at that time, he was somewhat ambitious and short-handed. He did not do this or that, so he lived a relatively poor life.

 To put it nicely, this is a complimentary meaning of arrogance on one’s talents, but to put it harshly, it is a derogatory meaning of arrogance based on one’s talents.

And after that, the pawnshop and wine-selling business became even less authentic. It felt like being both a **** and a stand-up at the same time, because if Sima Xiangru wanted to live a good life with Zhuo Wenjun, considering the talents of the couple, There are many ways that they can take, and they can all make them live a comfortable life. However, Sima Xiangru chose the method with the most barrages, and even dragged Zhuo Wenjun to open an open-air bar!

Obviously, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this couple is trying to force Zhuo Wangsun, Zhuo Wenjun's father, the Bashu wealthy businessman at that time, to marry him, because the most embarrassing person in this wine-selling incident was Zhuo Wangsun. After all, Sima Xiang For example, when he eloped with Zhuo Wenjun, he already lost face, so at this time, he is considered a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water! But Zhuo Wangsun was different. He was also a famous figure in the Bashu region at that time. As a result, not only was his daughter abducted by a poor boy, but he also made a living by selling alcohol on the streets.

To use a very inappropriate analogy, if a popular idol goes to dance that kind of dance you know, then she will definitely fall into controversy, but the company behind her will not have any controversy, because it can collect There was only endless ridicule.

 So due to the pressure of public opinion, Zhuo Wangsun finally had to reconcile with his daughter and son-in-law, allowing them to return home and live a prosperous life.

So the question is, did Yuehua take Sima Xiangru's reversal script this time?

However, Liu Xing thought about it carefully and felt that something was wrong with this matter, because the Yue family only had a son-in-law, so this was a good thing for Yuehua, so why did she do the opposite? This is a bit unreasonable. Could it be that she was controlled by the CPU?

And judging from Yue Ming's words and expression, the man's family conditions should be bad. After all, no capable family would let their own children become their son-in-law, so Liu Xing really can't figure out why Yue Hua would Making such a choice made all his descendants outsiders of the Yue family.

It seems like this is another hidden mission?

“Anyway, you can be considered a member of the Yue family, so Yue Ming, you should be able to...”

Before Qing Sheng finished speaking, Yue Ming shook his head and said: "Impossible, because the reason why my family can return to the family tree is still a part of the Yue family on the surface, mainly to make everyone's faces proud. , so we have been superficial relatives many years ago, so if I ask my family for help now, nine times out of ten I will be perfunctory! And to put it bluntly, I doubt that those people in my family will want me to My family and I are here this time, uh, in short, we just want us to die!"

Liu Xing nodded silently, because Yue Ming's guess was also very reasonable. After all, no matter what big family happened to be in today's big family, Yue Hua's incident would definitely be labeled as "unfortunate family", so according to the family scandal, This idea should not be publicized, so only when all the members of this side branch are gone can this "shame" be washed away. So Liu Xing can also understand why Yue Ming took his family to leave Yueshan City and go to Tianshui Town where he didn't know the specific situation.

"well."

Qing Sheng sighed, patted Yueming on the shoulder and said, "In this case, it is the best choice for you to follow us back to Tianshui Town, because we in Tianshui Town don't have so many details."

As Qing Sheng spoke, he looked at Liu Xing. After all, there was only one person in the team who could talk, and that was Liu Xing!

So if Liu Xing doesn’t agree, Yueming’s family won’t be able to go to Tianshui Town.

Of course, Liu Xing also felt that he had no reason to refuse Yue Ming's defection, because Yue Ming's reason for defecting to him was reasonable, and Miao Fei had proved it, so it was also reasonable for Yue Ming's family to become a part of Tianshui Town. no problem.

In addition, there is a saying that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so the Yueming family is somewhat wealthy, which is an improvement for Tianshui Town, not to mention that the Yue family and Yueshen are also somewhat wealthy. Contact, otherwise it would not be them who got the moon fragments back then, so it is possible for Yue Ming to contact the Moon God.

 In short, it’s not a loss.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing also patted Yue Ming's shoulder and said with a smile: "I welcome you and your family to join Tianshui Town, but we also plan to participate in tomorrow's moon night celebration, so we may have to trouble you again in Yueshan City Stay for a day.”

Yue Ming naturally heard what Liu Xing said, so he immediately said: "Master Xiaowei, although I can't guarantee that you can get the blessing of Lord Moon God, I know those places in Yueshan City are You are more likely to receive blessings! This can be regarded as a secret of our Yue family!"

 Is there any other operation like this?

Liu Xing, who did not expect the unexpected surprise, said with a smile: "That's great. If I can get the blessing of the Moon God, then when I return to Tianshui Town, I will build a temple for your Yue family." Star Tower.”

Yue Ming smiled, pointed at his companions and said: "Master Captain, I don't expect anything else. I just hope that you can accept these friends of mine and their families, because their families are relatively ordinary." , there is nothing special, so I can only do some small things that I can do for Tianshui Town, and please forgive me, Sir Captain."

Liu Xing shook his head and said seriously: "Yue Ming, you are a little worried. We in Tianshui Town treat everyone equally. As long as you have the ability to do things for Tianshui Town, we will not consider whether the matter is big or small, so Naturally, these friends of yours can follow us to Sweetwater Town."

 Then, Liu Xing asked a few more questions just to be on the safe side and determined why Yue Ming and others appeared here at this time.

Just like what Miao Fei said before, Yue Ming and others went to work at the Yue family's shop in Liangcheng. However, Yue Ming was still a member of the Yue family, so he became a high-level handyman, but they There was a lot of money to be made, so I stayed in Liangcheng peacefully.

But since the beginning of this month, Yue Ming has heard a lot of gossip, and some of the friends he met in Liangcheng have also chosen to leave, so he realized that something was wrong, but the most important thing is that the Yue family is here The person in charge of Liangcheng, Yue Ming's uncle, changed his past indifferent attitude towards him. Not only did he treat him to a good meal, but he also planned to entrust him with important tasks and let Yue Ming "temporarily" take over. His position in Liangcheng.

Yue Ming is not a fool, so he also knows that the reason why his uncle did this is just to make him the scapegoat and stay in Liangcheng to guard the Yue family's property on his behalf. In this way, no matter what happens, , you will be the one who takes the blame in the end.

Therefore, Yueming called her friends that night, and then secretly left Liangcheng.

Although Liangcheng will also close its gates after dark, it will only close the gates of the inner city, so Yueming who is staying in the outer city can leave Liangcheng directly.

 So this is another reason why Yue Ming wants to leave Yueshan City with his family. After all, he left without saying goodbye and even slapped his uncle in the face.

Along the way, Yue Ming and others did not encounter any accidents. After all, they were all young men. At the same time, they walked forward with their heads covered and empty-handed, and they did not look like they could hide money. After all, these days The silver coins and copper plates are quite heavy, and although the silver notes are very light, they cannot be exchanged for silver if they are wet with sweat.

However, they were still startled by someone on the road, and the person who frightened them was none other than Han Yu who was going to Liangcheng!

At that time, Yue Ming and others planned to catch some fish from the river for lunch and take a bath to cool off. However, they saw a large crocodile suddenly appeared in front of them, which almost scared Yue Ming and others to faint. In the past, after all, they also knew how powerful this crocodile was in fighting in the water.

Fortunately, at this time, Han Yu came out and controlled the crocodile, so that Yue Ming and others who caught the fish were not eaten by the fish.

Then, Han Yu invited Yue Ming and others to have a good meal in order to apologize. While eating, Yu Lei heard about their situation and directly pointed out a clear way for them, that is, if they met Liu Xing If you have a convoy, you can try to join the convoy heading to Tianshui Town, so when Yue Ming and others saw the convoy that was repairing the bridge, they stepped forward without hesitation and offered themselves.

 This is fate.

In fact, before that, Liu Xing had thought that since Yue Ming and others came from Liangcheng, they might meet Yu Lei and Han Yu who were going to Liangcheng. Unexpectedly, they actually met. They also sat together and had a meal, and finally Yu Lei asked them to join the convoy.

 Fate is really wonderful.
