king array
Chapter 28
When Fang Jue brought the scorched wooden sign to Ling Xun, Ling Xun stared at the wooden sign for a long while, until Fang Jue softly called out "Feng Ye", then he put the wooden sign into his sleeve casually , Self-explanation: "This can't explain anything, the head of the Mu family has great powers, I'm afraid he left first."
However, Fang Jue naturally lacked a tendon in his head to observe the situation. Thinking back to the fire in the area of Mu's house, he retorted seriously: "Not necessarily, the location of Mu's house is exactly the place where the fire is relatively large in the capital. , saw a lot of charred corpses along the way, although the head of the Mu family is proficient in formations, he is not a martial arts practitioner, and it is very likely that he will not escape the flames."
Ling Xun; "..."
Fang Jue didn't understand why his Master Feng's face turned black all of a sudden until he was kicked out, so he could only attribute it to the fact that he was erupting wisdom teeth recently and had a strange temper due to toothache.
Ling Xun was indeed doing business recently, he was in so much pain that he couldn't eat anything, and relying on his good health, he simply replaced food with wine, and when he was hungry, he asked for some sweet-scented osmanthus wine from Wang Da with a black scar face.
Wang Da's appearance and temper are all bad and bad, he can't do any fine work, but he can make good wine.He didn't know where he heard the fallacies, and he said all day long: "Wine is the essence of food, so it's the same if you don't eat and just drink!" It just hits off with Ling Xun who is troubled by toothache.Originally, Wang Da cherished his own wine very much and refused to give it to anyone easily.But back then in the prison he and Ling Xun didn't know each other, they had the same temper, and their friendship was not so good, so it was rare for him to be generous to him.
Ling Xun lived drunk for a few days, often dreaming while drunk.
He dreamed that there was a boy in gray standing in the endless darkness in front of him. The boy's back was facing him. He stretched out his hand and found that his hand was very small, as if he was still a child. However, the more he walked forward, the gray But the boy in clothes walked farther and farther, and he couldn't reach him no matter what. Finally, he chased after him out of breath, shouting "Benevolence, stay away", the man finally turned around, but turned into a man wearing an iron mask. adult man.The man took off the iron mask, revealing the face of the Patriarch of the Mu family, his whole body suddenly caught fire, and that warm and jade-like smile was burnt beyond recognition...
Ling Xun didn't know how many times he was awakened by nightmares in broad daylight, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
Always the same dream.
He took out the fragment of the wooden sign with the word "Mu Zhai" written on it from his pocket, and finally felt that this thing was too evil.
"You are not my benefactor, so what do you have to do with me?" Ling Xun lowered his eyelids a little coldly, and simply threw the sign out of the window, saving worry and effort.
The wooden sign rolled down the hillside outside the window. Coincidentally, it happened to hit Fang Jue, who was hanging on the tree for a nap, and almost knocked him down from the tree. Fang Jue swung his sword to smash the dare The things on his head had been chopped into pieces, and unexpectedly, at a glance, he found that it was the brand of the Mu family. After thinking about it, he suspected that it was accidentally dropped by their master Feng, so he swallowed his anger and did not take revenge, and took the brand seriously. Keep it.
Counting it, it has been more than half a year since Ling Xun left Yizhou. In the old nest of Jinxiu Building in Jincheng, there was only one shopkeeper Yue who couldn't stand up to his shoulders and couldn't lift his hands. He was dumped by the unreliable boss. .
When Yue Qing learned that Feng Wuge had secretly ordered in Beijing to close all branches and transfer all resources back to Yizhou, he almost had a nervous breakdown, wishing he could catch that Feng back and skin him.
However, the rolling wheels have already driven out from all over the world, and the wealth that Jinxiu Building has accumulated rapidly over the past few years is pouring into this southwestern corner of Kyushu. No matter how much Yue Qing wants to hang himself on the wall, he has to hold his breath and plan a strategy to arrange transportation routes everywhere. , to ensure that the change will not be detected by the government, and it will not fall into the eyes of bandits.When the horses and horses entered Yizhou one after another, he had to find a way to count the materials and money, and manage the government offices in Yizhou.
Therefore, when Ling Xun delivered the first letter from home after settling in Qingping Mountain, Yue Qing's cold eyes almost shaved the unlucky messenger into pieces.
"Yo, our Feng Boss has already fallen into grass? Then should we also divide up and go home?" Yue Qing's eyes were black and blue, and there was always a bit of resentment in his eyes.
The messenger stood down silently, not daring to vent his anger, and finally understood why Master Feng told him to keep his tail between his tail and behave like a man when he was leaving, and he must not say a good word about him in front of shopkeeper Yue.
Yue Qing saw that the sender was silent, half-suffering and unable to send out, so he simply raised his chin coldly, and condescendingly said, "What did the scourge write, let me have a look."
Fang Ke had been waiting by the side for a long time. Hearing the words, he hurried over to take the letter and presented it to the old lady Yue. He was as dog-legged as the little eunuch in the palace.
As soon as Yue Qing saw the four words "Mingxuan Dear Envoy" on the outside of the envelope, he immediately felt a pain in his head. Sure enough, when he opened the letter, he saw that the three papers were full of eloquence, occasionally interspersed with a few sentences such as "Enter my lovesickness door, know The crooked words of "I miss you so much" made Yue Qing feel goosebumps all over his body.
"By the way, shopkeeper, Lord Feng also said to bring you a gift." The messenger took aim at the timing and ordered someone to bring up several rolls of fabric. Seeing that Yue Qing's eyelids were about to twitch, he hurriedly explained: "This is not an ordinary piece of fabric. The runes on it were newly developed by Lord Feng, and it is said that they are not easy to get dirty, so I specially sent them to shopkeeper Yue to make two suits."
The snake hits seven inches, Yue Qing has no other problems, but he likes to be too clean, this thing can be said to be sent to the point.Fang Ke looked at Yue Qing's expression, and couldn't help but give them a thumbs up in their hearts, talking about their coaxing skills. They Feng said they were second and no one dared to claim the number one.
As expected, Yue Qing's complexion improved, he dismissed the messenger, and began to think seriously about the contents of Ling Xun's letter.
Although Ling Xun's letter was full of nonsense, Yue Qing still understood his meaning based on the tacit understanding between the two for many years, and his heart was inevitably heavy, knowing that if he took this step from now on, there would be no chance to stop .
"Shopkeeper, there is too much money and goods in the warehouse. Do you think we should buy some land and build a new warehouse?" Without the twin brothers dangling in front of his eyes, Fang Ke's life would suddenly become boring, wouldn't he? At least, I lost interest in tinkering with food, and spent the whole day either feeding mynah or helping Yue Qing, seeing Yue Qing silent for a long time without saying a word, he couldn't help but remind him.
Yue Qing came back to his senses slightly, quickly lit a torch, and burned Ling Xun's letter.
"No need, money is only useful if it is spent, so what's the point of hoarding it? Waiting for it to rust?"
So shopkeeper Yue swiped his pen and ordered people to buy rice grains in large quantities from now on, and wrote a reply letter to Ling Xun. He also gave him several pages of papers in return, and the summary was only two sentences : "If you want food, I can think of a way, but if you want horses, is your brain broken? What good horses can be found in Yizhou, you should always figure out a way by yourself."
The war in Gyeonggi is in chaos, but the southern states and counties have not yet escaped the control of the imperial court. Recruiting soldiers and buying horses can only be done secretly. It can be imagined that it will take a lot of effort. Yue Qing rubbed his dry eyes, got up from the case, and went straight Straightening his old waist, he couldn't help cursing inwardly; "Death is a disaster, it took my old life."
"The scourge of death, it took my old life! It took my old life!"
Suddenly there were two yin and yang human voices outside, Fang Ke ran out in a hurry, and made a silence gesture to the starling hanging on the porch: "Shh, shopkeeper Yue is not in a good mood right now, you can have a snack! "
"You can have some snacks!" The starling replied to Fang Ke without changing his words.
Yue Qingyi watched coldly from the door, with a half-smile, "I think this beast doesn't want to learn well, so why not stew it tonight."
The starling shivered suddenly, stuck his neck and squeezed out a flattering sentence: "The shopkeeper is mighty!"
Fang Ke was overwhelmed with joy: "I don't know where our Master Feng got this little thing. Not to mention the white hair, he is also very thief."
Yue Qing looked at the starling jumping up and down, and suddenly frowned slightly, thinking of something.
Mynahs mostly have black feathers and yellow eyes, and it is rare to see such a species with white feathers and black eyes. If it weren't for the row of feather tufts that are unique to mynahs on its forehead, others might think it was a pigeon.But just now, Yue Qing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen this kind of white mynah in other places, but he couldn't remember exactly where, he only knew it was on the way to deposit goods.
Almost at the same time, an identical white mynah fluttered its wings, flew across thousands of mountains and rivers, and landed on a half-cut tree stump beside the dirt road.
A little boy with buns stretched out his hand and lightly touched the starling's head, and the starling jumped onto his arm obediently.
"Sir." The little boy took the starling to a nearby tea stand, and respectfully handed the starling to the man who was drinking tea at the small table, who was the head of the Mu family.
This tea stall is the only way between Jingzhou and Jingzhou from north to south. It is also the last resting place before crossing the river from Jingzhou to Jingzhou. It used to be a place often visited by business travelers before Liangzhou soldiers encircled Beijing. , and now there is a commotion in the north, and many big households are busy moving south to take refuge, which makes the business of this small tea stall very good.
At this moment, there were quite a few customers at the tea stall, but it was also strange, so many people, none of them looked in the direction of this little boy, even though there was a very conspicuous white starling squatting on his arm.
The Patriarch of the Mu family stretched out his finger, and the starling jumped over and rubbed it with his beak twice, looking very intimate.Then he opened his hand, showing a small red pill in his palm, the white mynah pecked it up and ate it without hesitation, when the pill was eaten, he suddenly spread his wings, and with a click, he spit out words.
"Ga--the King's Formation has opened, the mountains and rivers are waiting, waiting for the good news of the Ninth Master."
The starling brought the message, jumped up and down on the table, picked up a few beans to eat, then raised his head to look at the head of the Mu family, seeing that he didn't intend to pass on the message, he flapped his wings and flew away.
Seeing that his husband had almost finished eating, the little boy was about to get up to pack his things. At this moment, he suddenly heard the word "Qingpingshan" mentioned by someone at the next table.
The name Qingpingshan is not unfamiliar to Xiao Tonger, and the criminal who was robbed by Mr. Feng from the execution ground is said to be a bandit from Qingpingshan.
The little Tong'er had a good impression of Feng Wuge. Hearing this, he immediately looked at the head of the Mu family with an inquiring gaze, but he saw that the head of the Mu family didn't change his face. He just picked up the chopsticks, picked up the boiled beans in the plate, pressed them one by one It is placed on the table with some kind of weird figure.
The group of people exploded in excitement just now, and only then did the little boy hear the words "Qingping Mountain". Then it seemed that one of them warned something, and they immediately lowered their conversation voices, covering up the surrounding noises, Couldn't hear what they said at all.
However, as the boiled beans placed on the table by the Patriarch of the Mu family took shape, the voices of those people's deliberately suppressed conversations suddenly became clear, and every word and every word was transmitted into the little boy's ears.
"Hehe, Zhong Lishan married a brothel where tens of thousands of people slept, and he treated it as a treasure, and he wore countless green hats on his head. Let me see, the child in his belly may belong to someone else! "
"You don't care who it is, anyway, the child is in the wife's womb, and it's about to crawl out, and Zhong Lishan is around the woman day and night, do we have a better chance?"
"Of course there is no better time to do it than this! Haha, this time we have a formation master to help out, we will definitely make that grandson surnamed Zhongli not be this cheap father, and finally we can avenge the revenge of seizing the mountain..."
Everyone laughed when they mentioned the excitement, and they seemed to be [-]% sure of the words.
"Sir..." Xiao Tong'er frowned and asked tentatively. "That Mr. Feng, he should still be on Qingping Mountain, right?"
The head of the Mu family flicked the boiled beans off the table with a wave of his sleeve, and the voices of the people at the table became inaudible again.
"Let's go." He stood up and continued on his way without even looking at those people.
Little Tong'er followed behind him in an orderly manner. Seeing that he was about to go too far away to see the tea stand, he couldn't help asking: "Sir, don't you care?"
The Patriarch of Mu's family glanced over, not angry but pretentious, the little Tong'er was surprised that he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly lowered his head to apologize: "The kid is talking too much."
"Sincerely, do you know why I gave you this name?" the head of the Mu family asked indifferently.
The little Tong'er replied: "I know, the master told me to always remember to be careful with my words, so as to avoid misfortunes coming out of my mouth."
The Patriarch of the Mu family said: "It's good to know it. From now on, when walking on the road, don't mention the third person other than you and me. Besides, there are countless right and wrong in this world. How can we take care of everything? Let it be irrelevant." If someone or something loses your mind and clear mind, you will eventually deviate from the track, and it is rare to have the original intention.”
"Yes, I would like to say thank you for your teaching, sir."
The little boy named Jinyan bowed deeply, and when he raised his head again, he found that the head of the Mu family had drifted away.
Jinyan sighed silently, and said in his heart, ever since he served by the Patriarch's side, he has never seen him care about anyone, every move and every step of his has an elusive intention, and he never makes mistakes.Seeing that the Patriarch took good care of the Young Master Feng earlier, he thought that Young Master Feng was half a friend of the Patriarch, but unexpectedly, he thought too much.Jinyan took one last look at the cold back of the Patriarch of the Mu family who was walking alone, and then hurried to catch up, not daring to speculate.
Shangling Xun on Qingping Mountain took advantage of the toothache, and used wine instead of food to enjoy himself for a few days, but this drunken state didn't last long, and it somehow spread to Lingshu's ears.
Ling Xun thought to himself, this Zhong Lishan looks like a man, how could he act like an eunuch spreading gossip.
"Don't blame your brother-in-law. Every time you visit me, you smell like alcohol. Do you think I can't smell it?"
It is a good time in the mountains in the afternoon, and a warm brazier is roasting in the small courtyard of the back mountain to drive away the coolness of late autumn.Ling Shu was lying on the couch with a big belly, a small basket on her lap, and she was preparing Baijia clothes for the baby in her belly.Maybe it's because she is about to be a mother, her red lips are dripping, her body is plump, her eyes are full of comfort and happiness, even if she is scolding Ling Xun, she speaks softly.
"My sister said she won't let me drink anymore, so I won't drink."
Ling Xun has always behaved like a rabbit in front of his sister, and his words are better than his songs.
After all, they are brothers and sisters. Even though they haven’t seen each other for many years, Ling Shu can figure out Ling Xun’s pissing nature without a teacher. Knowing that he probably says one thing and does another, she said: “From now on, if you don’t have anything to do every day, just do it. Come to my place for lunch, let Madam Liu make you some soft food, even if you have a toothache, you can’t stop eating, how can your body bear it? Also, when you leave later, take some hangover soup with you , warm it up and drink it before going to bed at night."
"Understood, then I'll come to my sister's place for dinner in the future, don't think I eat too much." Ling Xun replied with a smile.
If Fang Jue, Tang Xu and the others saw their omnipotent Master Feng turn into such an embarrassing state, their eyes might pop out of their sockets, but Ling Xun was happy in his heart.
The children of ordinary families may be impatient because of being controlled, and no boy wants to be tired of being with his mother and sister.But for Ling Xun, this seemingly long-winded chatter was something he couldn't wish for.He never expected that someone in this world would treat him like this. Even in the past 14 years, he didn't even dare to recall the appearance of his relatives.
It wasn't until this moment that Ling Xun truly realized what it was like to be cared and cared by relatives in this world.
"Sister, have you decided on a name for the child?" Ling Xun asked.
"I still don't know if it's a boy or a girl, how can I choose?" Ling Shu smiled and bent her eyes. She and Ling Xun don't really look alike. More like a father, with big and upright eyes, dignified and less charming, he looks like a lady from everyone.
Ling Xun simply said: "Take one as well, this time you don't need to use it next time."
Liu Ma came over and smiled: "Look at what Uncle said, it should be a name for a kitten and a puppy!"
Ling Shu lowered her head and gently stroked her stomach, "Your brother-in-law said that you are the most literate in our village, so you should name the baby."
Ling Xun regained his energy, "Really? Then I have to think about it!"
He really thought about it seriously for a long time, and said: "My eldest niece can't suffer so much like her parents and uncles. She will be raised in a honey pot after birth, why not call her Zhongli Gan!"
Ling Shu was stunned.
On the side, Mama Liu clapped her hands and applauded, "It's such a good name! Ma'am, it's better to be called Tiantian by your baby name!"
Ling Shu also nodded and laughed, "It's a good name, and your brother-in-law must like it too."
Mama Liu asked again, "Uncle, what if it's a boy?"
Ling Xun, who wanted a big niece to play with, stretched his waist in disgust, "Boy, let's talk about it after birth!"
Roughly a month had passed since the capital was burned down, and more and more refugees from the capital gathered at the foot of Qingping Mountain. By the end of the year, the number had reached several hundred.While Qingping Mountain is well-known, it is gradually exhausted and unable to support so many people.
Wu Qing is in charge of the property in Qingping Mountain. Seeing that the rice stored in the village seems to have been attacked by locusts, it is rapidly reduced every day, and his face is getting uglier day by day. When I ran into it, I thought I had encountered a tuberculosis ghost.
Every time Wu Qing sees Ling Xun, she doesn't speak, avoiding him like a plague god, Ling Xun himself can't figure out how to offend him so well.
Originally, Zhong Lishan had mentioned several times that he wanted to become sworn brothers with him and be the third leader of Qingping Mountain, but Ling Xun didn't think about whether he should stay in Qingping Mountain, and secondly, he was worried about Wu Qing, so he kept procrastinating. I don't agree.After all, Wu Qing is Zhong Lishan's serious sworn brother, the two have been friends for life since they were young, if he worships Zhong Lishan again, wouldn't he buy one and get one free?Facing Wu Qing's face, he couldn't call out "Second Brother".
A while ago he deliberately got drunk, and it was not unrelated to avoiding Zhong Lishan.
This day Ling Xun had just had lunch at Ling Shu, and just turned around from the back mountain, he heard someone arguing in the main village from a distance, he and Ah Cheng who was following behind him looked at each other, the two stopped at the same time.
Since Ah Cheng had been used as a bench by Ling Xun in prison, and it was the time when half-children rebelled, Ah Cheng didn't like to see Ling Xun, but since Ling Xun rescued them in the execution ground, his body The hair is also smooth.
Ah Chengtian has developed a pair of skillful hands. In the past two days, he has worked out a wooden cradle with four wheels underneath, which can be pushed around. It just happened to be sent to Ling Shu for a look, and Ling Shu left him to have dinner with Ling Xun. , the two of them came out together.
"Why do I sound like my master's voice?" Ah Cheng said to Ling Xun after listening to the quarrel for a while.
Ah Cheng's master is Wu Qing. Because of his dexterity, he has been learning mechanism skills from Wu Qing. He seldom calls Wu Qing the second master like others.
Ling Xun stood with his hands behind his back, listening with enthusiasm, and casually said: "Who else in Qingping Mountain dares to challenge your masters like this? To be honest, this bandit village has not been quarreled by these two people so far. It's really strange."
Ah Cheng glared at Ling Xun, "You are not allowed to say my master!"
Ling Xun was delighted, "Oh, the little one is quite capable of protecting people. Not bad, he can be made."
Ah Cheng was in a hurry, "Who are you calling younger? You, you..." Ah Cheng wanted to say that you were only a few years older than me, but he stuttered angrily.
Ling Xun has been serious in Lingshu for too long, and at this time he has a problem with his cheap mouth. Taking advantage of Ah Cheng's jam, he looked down at him for a while, and said right away: "Why are you panicking? I didn't say how young you are. Could it be that you have a guilty conscience?"
Ah Cheng: ...I'm fucking fighting with you goblin!
Ah Cheng threw himself at Ling Xun. Ling Xun was worried that he hadn't made a move for too long, and his joints were almost frozen. At this time, he met someone who came to beg for a beating, so he accepted it gladly.
"Say it in advance! You are not allowed to use formations! Otherwise, you will not be a man!" Ah Cheng wisely put forward the conditions.
Ling Xun acted like coaxing a child, "Okay, if you say no, then don't."
Seeing Ling Xun's lack of energy, Ah Cheng spat and cursed secretly in his heart: "You don't need to be complacent. If you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts. Sooner or later, there will be someone who can take care of you!"
It was raging outside, and the inside of the main village was also full of noise.
The content of the quarrel between Wu Qing and Zhong Lishan was still about the refugees taken in by the mountain.
"There is almost not enough food in the stockade to survive the winter. Either drive people away and stop distributing food, or everyone will starve to death together. The boss can make up his own mind." Wu Qing said very bluntly, putting on a face The attitude of the stall quitting.
Zhong Lishan never cared about these internal affairs, and he couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "Brother Feng brought so much gold and silver into the village, isn't it enough to exchange for food?"
"For food?" Wu Qing sneered angrily, "My boss, you should go outside to find out if there is anyone willing to sell food. Now that the world is chaotic and the weather is cold, no one wants to let go of food. Even if you hold gold bricks, you may not be able to exchange for a bucket of rice. If you want to buy grain, you have to go to Yizhou and Jingzhou. Dare I ask if our cottage is so powerful that it can snatch rice grain from the local snakes? Will it be transported back safely from the chaos?"
Zhong Lishan rubbed his forehead and sighed, obviously extremely tired, "Okay, there are a lot of things recently, we can discuss it after your sister-in-law is finished giving birth."
"Yes, in the heart of the master, what is more important than sister-in-law?" Wu Qing responded indifferently, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of her lips.
Just when he was about to leave, Zhong Lishan grabbed him from behind.
"Second brother, why is your complexion getting worse and worse?" Zhong Lishan then noticed Wu Qing's horribly pale face, grabbed Wu Qing's wrist and dragged Wu Qing back, frowning tightly, "Are you No... are you still taking those medicines?"
Seeing that Zhong Lishan finally cared about him, Wu Qing's eyes changed, he seemed less gloomy than before, but he still shook Zhong Lishan's hand away and said perfunctorily; "The boss should care more about his sister-in-law, and the younger brother will not bother you." You bothered."
"What kind of stupid words are you talking about! You are my brother, if I don't worry about you, who will worry about you?" Zhong Lishan was annoyed, and didn't notice Wu Qing's complicated expressions that changed several times, and only reprimanded him in a brotherly tone : "How many times have I told you, don't take those broken pills again! Formation masters are born, you don't have the ability to sense the five elements, why do you have to force it? If you can take medicine, you can become a formation master Come on, wouldn't there be as many array mages under the sun?!"
Unexpectedly, these words hit Wu Qing's pain, Wu Qing's eyes turned red instantly, and the veins on his forehead twitched, he shouted at Zhong Lishan: "I decide my own affairs, I don't need you to take care of them!"
Zhong Lishan's bull's eyes widened, and he scolded: "You don't need me to care? Don't look at how bad your body is now, and how weird your temper is, aren't you afraid that something will go wrong one day? !"
In the end, the two broke up after a quarrel, Wu Qing ran out angrily, and saw Ling Xun and A Cheng fighting on the slope outside the door at a glance.
Ling Xun was having a fight with Ah Cheng, because he didn't pay much attention, so when Wu Qing came out, he noticed him immediately when he came out, but it was Ah Cheng who was concentrating on playing, and saw Ling Xun sneaking out and showing a smile. Seeing an opening, he was overjoyed and punched Ling Xun directly on the shoulder.
"Haha, I'm hitting you right? I said, at most, you can catch me with a hundred tricks!" Ah Cheng laughed, and there was pure happiness unique to young people in his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Wu Qing became even paler, as if her lips had lost color.
Ling Xun looked at him, it was an ordinary exchange of eyes, but he was born with a pair of seductive smiling eyes, in the eyes of people who don't want to see him, these eyes are tantamount to showing off and provocation, no matter how you look at them, they deserve to be beaten .
At this time, Ah Cheng also turned around belatedly, and when he saw Wu Qing, he rushed over like a little wolf dog, and shouted happily: "Master!" , ready to wag its tail.
Wu Qing gave Ah Cheng a cold look, his eyes were so gloomy that they could form ice balls.
"Yo, have you climbed another branch so soon?"
Ah Cheng finally felt something was wrong, his tail wagged halfway and drooped down, his eyes widened innocently, and he yelled loudly: "Master, I..."
However, Wu Qing didn't allow him to continue to explain, and walked directly in front of Ling Xun. Although he was speaking to Ah Cheng, his eyes were on Ling Xun.
"That's right, it's better for people to go to high places and follow a real formation master than to follow me, an idiot."
Ling Xun: "..."
How do you say a word?He was shot while lying down.
Ling Xun felt that the heart of Wu's second master must be made of crystal, which would shatter at the touch of a finger.
After Wu Qing finished speaking, he left, and Ah Cheng hurriedly chased after him. The fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy's voice became hoarse when he heard it loudly.
Ling Xun watched the cold and hot master and apprentice go away, thought for a while, and then entered the main village.
Maybe it's because the two big fishes, the big one and the second one, are biting each other, and the little bandits are afraid of being caught in a pond, so they don't know where they are going at this time, and there is no one in the huge yard.
Ling Xun had just entered the door when Zhong Lishan came out and called "Second Brother".
After seeing who was coming, Zhong Lishan's face unavoidably collapsed again, and he greeted him with a sigh.
"Brother Feng, it's you..."
"What, you see my expression? Could it be because I'm not as good-looking as Wu Er's head?" Ling Xun joked sloppily.
Zhong Lishan covered his face and smiled wryly: "Do you think I'm still in the mood to joke now?"
After this month, he has been haggard a lot, almost turning his head gray.
Ling Xun also stopped playing tricks on him, and asked directly: "Brother Zhongli is worried about food?"
Zhong Lishan heard something in Ling Xun's words, "Why, brother Feng has a solution?"
"It's been half a month since I sent a letter to my family asking them to buy grain in Yizhou. If there are no accidents, I should be able to save enough."
Zhong Lishan almost jumped up on the spot when he heard it, his eyes lit up, "Really?!"
Ling Xun was frightened by his monkey-like reaction, quickly took two steps back, nodded cautiously, "Well, really."
"Your Jinxiu Tower...does it have a passageway to deliver goods?"
Ling Xun said: "It's no problem to transport it to the border of Yizhou. My family should have taken care of it. But after leaving Yizhou, I can't guarantee whether it will be blocked by ghosts and snakes."
"Success! As long as the food can be transported to the border of Yizhou, I will send my brothers to fetch it. Even if we fight a bloody road, we will definitely bring the food back!"
Zhong Lishan was overjoyed, the cloud of sorrow that covered his head suddenly dissipated half, looked around, and found that the boys in the main village had all absented from work, so he simply gave himself half a day off, and went to the back of the mountain to see his wife .
As Lingshu's delivery date approached, everyone in the village became nervous, fearing that something might be wrong.
But unexpectedly, with thousands of worries, something went wrong.
The midwife who was scheduled to come to the mountain to deliver Lingshu's baby was blocked halfway and couldn't make it.
However, Fang Jue naturally lacked a tendon in his head to observe the situation. Thinking back to the fire in the area of Mu's house, he retorted seriously: "Not necessarily, the location of Mu's house is exactly the place where the fire is relatively large in the capital. , saw a lot of charred corpses along the way, although the head of the Mu family is proficient in formations, he is not a martial arts practitioner, and it is very likely that he will not escape the flames."
Ling Xun; "..."
Fang Jue didn't understand why his Master Feng's face turned black all of a sudden until he was kicked out, so he could only attribute it to the fact that he was erupting wisdom teeth recently and had a strange temper due to toothache.
Ling Xun was indeed doing business recently, he was in so much pain that he couldn't eat anything, and relying on his good health, he simply replaced food with wine, and when he was hungry, he asked for some sweet-scented osmanthus wine from Wang Da with a black scar face.
Wang Da's appearance and temper are all bad and bad, he can't do any fine work, but he can make good wine.He didn't know where he heard the fallacies, and he said all day long: "Wine is the essence of food, so it's the same if you don't eat and just drink!" It just hits off with Ling Xun who is troubled by toothache.Originally, Wang Da cherished his own wine very much and refused to give it to anyone easily.But back then in the prison he and Ling Xun didn't know each other, they had the same temper, and their friendship was not so good, so it was rare for him to be generous to him.
Ling Xun lived drunk for a few days, often dreaming while drunk.
He dreamed that there was a boy in gray standing in the endless darkness in front of him. The boy's back was facing him. He stretched out his hand and found that his hand was very small, as if he was still a child. However, the more he walked forward, the gray But the boy in clothes walked farther and farther, and he couldn't reach him no matter what. Finally, he chased after him out of breath, shouting "Benevolence, stay away", the man finally turned around, but turned into a man wearing an iron mask. adult man.The man took off the iron mask, revealing the face of the Patriarch of the Mu family, his whole body suddenly caught fire, and that warm and jade-like smile was burnt beyond recognition...
Ling Xun didn't know how many times he was awakened by nightmares in broad daylight, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
Always the same dream.
He took out the fragment of the wooden sign with the word "Mu Zhai" written on it from his pocket, and finally felt that this thing was too evil.
"You are not my benefactor, so what do you have to do with me?" Ling Xun lowered his eyelids a little coldly, and simply threw the sign out of the window, saving worry and effort.
The wooden sign rolled down the hillside outside the window. Coincidentally, it happened to hit Fang Jue, who was hanging on the tree for a nap, and almost knocked him down from the tree. Fang Jue swung his sword to smash the dare The things on his head had been chopped into pieces, and unexpectedly, at a glance, he found that it was the brand of the Mu family. After thinking about it, he suspected that it was accidentally dropped by their master Feng, so he swallowed his anger and did not take revenge, and took the brand seriously. Keep it.
Counting it, it has been more than half a year since Ling Xun left Yizhou. In the old nest of Jinxiu Building in Jincheng, there was only one shopkeeper Yue who couldn't stand up to his shoulders and couldn't lift his hands. He was dumped by the unreliable boss. .
When Yue Qing learned that Feng Wuge had secretly ordered in Beijing to close all branches and transfer all resources back to Yizhou, he almost had a nervous breakdown, wishing he could catch that Feng back and skin him.
However, the rolling wheels have already driven out from all over the world, and the wealth that Jinxiu Building has accumulated rapidly over the past few years is pouring into this southwestern corner of Kyushu. No matter how much Yue Qing wants to hang himself on the wall, he has to hold his breath and plan a strategy to arrange transportation routes everywhere. , to ensure that the change will not be detected by the government, and it will not fall into the eyes of bandits.When the horses and horses entered Yizhou one after another, he had to find a way to count the materials and money, and manage the government offices in Yizhou.
Therefore, when Ling Xun delivered the first letter from home after settling in Qingping Mountain, Yue Qing's cold eyes almost shaved the unlucky messenger into pieces.
"Yo, our Feng Boss has already fallen into grass? Then should we also divide up and go home?" Yue Qing's eyes were black and blue, and there was always a bit of resentment in his eyes.
The messenger stood down silently, not daring to vent his anger, and finally understood why Master Feng told him to keep his tail between his tail and behave like a man when he was leaving, and he must not say a good word about him in front of shopkeeper Yue.
Yue Qing saw that the sender was silent, half-suffering and unable to send out, so he simply raised his chin coldly, and condescendingly said, "What did the scourge write, let me have a look."
Fang Ke had been waiting by the side for a long time. Hearing the words, he hurried over to take the letter and presented it to the old lady Yue. He was as dog-legged as the little eunuch in the palace.
As soon as Yue Qing saw the four words "Mingxuan Dear Envoy" on the outside of the envelope, he immediately felt a pain in his head. Sure enough, when he opened the letter, he saw that the three papers were full of eloquence, occasionally interspersed with a few sentences such as "Enter my lovesickness door, know The crooked words of "I miss you so much" made Yue Qing feel goosebumps all over his body.
"By the way, shopkeeper, Lord Feng also said to bring you a gift." The messenger took aim at the timing and ordered someone to bring up several rolls of fabric. Seeing that Yue Qing's eyelids were about to twitch, he hurriedly explained: "This is not an ordinary piece of fabric. The runes on it were newly developed by Lord Feng, and it is said that they are not easy to get dirty, so I specially sent them to shopkeeper Yue to make two suits."
The snake hits seven inches, Yue Qing has no other problems, but he likes to be too clean, this thing can be said to be sent to the point.Fang Ke looked at Yue Qing's expression, and couldn't help but give them a thumbs up in their hearts, talking about their coaxing skills. They Feng said they were second and no one dared to claim the number one.
As expected, Yue Qing's complexion improved, he dismissed the messenger, and began to think seriously about the contents of Ling Xun's letter.
Although Ling Xun's letter was full of nonsense, Yue Qing still understood his meaning based on the tacit understanding between the two for many years, and his heart was inevitably heavy, knowing that if he took this step from now on, there would be no chance to stop .
"Shopkeeper, there is too much money and goods in the warehouse. Do you think we should buy some land and build a new warehouse?" Without the twin brothers dangling in front of his eyes, Fang Ke's life would suddenly become boring, wouldn't he? At least, I lost interest in tinkering with food, and spent the whole day either feeding mynah or helping Yue Qing, seeing Yue Qing silent for a long time without saying a word, he couldn't help but remind him.
Yue Qing came back to his senses slightly, quickly lit a torch, and burned Ling Xun's letter.
"No need, money is only useful if it is spent, so what's the point of hoarding it? Waiting for it to rust?"
So shopkeeper Yue swiped his pen and ordered people to buy rice grains in large quantities from now on, and wrote a reply letter to Ling Xun. He also gave him several pages of papers in return, and the summary was only two sentences : "If you want food, I can think of a way, but if you want horses, is your brain broken? What good horses can be found in Yizhou, you should always figure out a way by yourself."
The war in Gyeonggi is in chaos, but the southern states and counties have not yet escaped the control of the imperial court. Recruiting soldiers and buying horses can only be done secretly. It can be imagined that it will take a lot of effort. Yue Qing rubbed his dry eyes, got up from the case, and went straight Straightening his old waist, he couldn't help cursing inwardly; "Death is a disaster, it took my old life."
"The scourge of death, it took my old life! It took my old life!"
Suddenly there were two yin and yang human voices outside, Fang Ke ran out in a hurry, and made a silence gesture to the starling hanging on the porch: "Shh, shopkeeper Yue is not in a good mood right now, you can have a snack! "
"You can have some snacks!" The starling replied to Fang Ke without changing his words.
Yue Qingyi watched coldly from the door, with a half-smile, "I think this beast doesn't want to learn well, so why not stew it tonight."
The starling shivered suddenly, stuck his neck and squeezed out a flattering sentence: "The shopkeeper is mighty!"
Fang Ke was overwhelmed with joy: "I don't know where our Master Feng got this little thing. Not to mention the white hair, he is also very thief."
Yue Qing looked at the starling jumping up and down, and suddenly frowned slightly, thinking of something.
Mynahs mostly have black feathers and yellow eyes, and it is rare to see such a species with white feathers and black eyes. If it weren't for the row of feather tufts that are unique to mynahs on its forehead, others might think it was a pigeon.But just now, Yue Qing suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen this kind of white mynah in other places, but he couldn't remember exactly where, he only knew it was on the way to deposit goods.
Almost at the same time, an identical white mynah fluttered its wings, flew across thousands of mountains and rivers, and landed on a half-cut tree stump beside the dirt road.
A little boy with buns stretched out his hand and lightly touched the starling's head, and the starling jumped onto his arm obediently.
"Sir." The little boy took the starling to a nearby tea stand, and respectfully handed the starling to the man who was drinking tea at the small table, who was the head of the Mu family.
This tea stall is the only way between Jingzhou and Jingzhou from north to south. It is also the last resting place before crossing the river from Jingzhou to Jingzhou. It used to be a place often visited by business travelers before Liangzhou soldiers encircled Beijing. , and now there is a commotion in the north, and many big households are busy moving south to take refuge, which makes the business of this small tea stall very good.
At this moment, there were quite a few customers at the tea stall, but it was also strange, so many people, none of them looked in the direction of this little boy, even though there was a very conspicuous white starling squatting on his arm.
The Patriarch of the Mu family stretched out his finger, and the starling jumped over and rubbed it with his beak twice, looking very intimate.Then he opened his hand, showing a small red pill in his palm, the white mynah pecked it up and ate it without hesitation, when the pill was eaten, he suddenly spread his wings, and with a click, he spit out words.
"Ga--the King's Formation has opened, the mountains and rivers are waiting, waiting for the good news of the Ninth Master."
The starling brought the message, jumped up and down on the table, picked up a few beans to eat, then raised his head to look at the head of the Mu family, seeing that he didn't intend to pass on the message, he flapped his wings and flew away.
Seeing that his husband had almost finished eating, the little boy was about to get up to pack his things. At this moment, he suddenly heard the word "Qingpingshan" mentioned by someone at the next table.
The name Qingpingshan is not unfamiliar to Xiao Tonger, and the criminal who was robbed by Mr. Feng from the execution ground is said to be a bandit from Qingpingshan.
The little Tong'er had a good impression of Feng Wuge. Hearing this, he immediately looked at the head of the Mu family with an inquiring gaze, but he saw that the head of the Mu family didn't change his face. He just picked up the chopsticks, picked up the boiled beans in the plate, pressed them one by one It is placed on the table with some kind of weird figure.
The group of people exploded in excitement just now, and only then did the little boy hear the words "Qingping Mountain". Then it seemed that one of them warned something, and they immediately lowered their conversation voices, covering up the surrounding noises, Couldn't hear what they said at all.
However, as the boiled beans placed on the table by the Patriarch of the Mu family took shape, the voices of those people's deliberately suppressed conversations suddenly became clear, and every word and every word was transmitted into the little boy's ears.
"Hehe, Zhong Lishan married a brothel where tens of thousands of people slept, and he treated it as a treasure, and he wore countless green hats on his head. Let me see, the child in his belly may belong to someone else! "
"You don't care who it is, anyway, the child is in the wife's womb, and it's about to crawl out, and Zhong Lishan is around the woman day and night, do we have a better chance?"
"Of course there is no better time to do it than this! Haha, this time we have a formation master to help out, we will definitely make that grandson surnamed Zhongli not be this cheap father, and finally we can avenge the revenge of seizing the mountain..."
Everyone laughed when they mentioned the excitement, and they seemed to be [-]% sure of the words.
"Sir..." Xiao Tong'er frowned and asked tentatively. "That Mr. Feng, he should still be on Qingping Mountain, right?"
The head of the Mu family flicked the boiled beans off the table with a wave of his sleeve, and the voices of the people at the table became inaudible again.
"Let's go." He stood up and continued on his way without even looking at those people.
Little Tong'er followed behind him in an orderly manner. Seeing that he was about to go too far away to see the tea stand, he couldn't help asking: "Sir, don't you care?"
The Patriarch of Mu's family glanced over, not angry but pretentious, the little Tong'er was surprised that he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly lowered his head to apologize: "The kid is talking too much."
"Sincerely, do you know why I gave you this name?" the head of the Mu family asked indifferently.
The little Tong'er replied: "I know, the master told me to always remember to be careful with my words, so as to avoid misfortunes coming out of my mouth."
The Patriarch of the Mu family said: "It's good to know it. From now on, when walking on the road, don't mention the third person other than you and me. Besides, there are countless right and wrong in this world. How can we take care of everything? Let it be irrelevant." If someone or something loses your mind and clear mind, you will eventually deviate from the track, and it is rare to have the original intention.”
"Yes, I would like to say thank you for your teaching, sir."
The little boy named Jinyan bowed deeply, and when he raised his head again, he found that the head of the Mu family had drifted away.
Jinyan sighed silently, and said in his heart, ever since he served by the Patriarch's side, he has never seen him care about anyone, every move and every step of his has an elusive intention, and he never makes mistakes.Seeing that the Patriarch took good care of the Young Master Feng earlier, he thought that Young Master Feng was half a friend of the Patriarch, but unexpectedly, he thought too much.Jinyan took one last look at the cold back of the Patriarch of the Mu family who was walking alone, and then hurried to catch up, not daring to speculate.
Shangling Xun on Qingping Mountain took advantage of the toothache, and used wine instead of food to enjoy himself for a few days, but this drunken state didn't last long, and it somehow spread to Lingshu's ears.
Ling Xun thought to himself, this Zhong Lishan looks like a man, how could he act like an eunuch spreading gossip.
"Don't blame your brother-in-law. Every time you visit me, you smell like alcohol. Do you think I can't smell it?"
It is a good time in the mountains in the afternoon, and a warm brazier is roasting in the small courtyard of the back mountain to drive away the coolness of late autumn.Ling Shu was lying on the couch with a big belly, a small basket on her lap, and she was preparing Baijia clothes for the baby in her belly.Maybe it's because she is about to be a mother, her red lips are dripping, her body is plump, her eyes are full of comfort and happiness, even if she is scolding Ling Xun, she speaks softly.
"My sister said she won't let me drink anymore, so I won't drink."
Ling Xun has always behaved like a rabbit in front of his sister, and his words are better than his songs.
After all, they are brothers and sisters. Even though they haven’t seen each other for many years, Ling Shu can figure out Ling Xun’s pissing nature without a teacher. Knowing that he probably says one thing and does another, she said: “From now on, if you don’t have anything to do every day, just do it. Come to my place for lunch, let Madam Liu make you some soft food, even if you have a toothache, you can’t stop eating, how can your body bear it? Also, when you leave later, take some hangover soup with you , warm it up and drink it before going to bed at night."
"Understood, then I'll come to my sister's place for dinner in the future, don't think I eat too much." Ling Xun replied with a smile.
If Fang Jue, Tang Xu and the others saw their omnipotent Master Feng turn into such an embarrassing state, their eyes might pop out of their sockets, but Ling Xun was happy in his heart.
The children of ordinary families may be impatient because of being controlled, and no boy wants to be tired of being with his mother and sister.But for Ling Xun, this seemingly long-winded chatter was something he couldn't wish for.He never expected that someone in this world would treat him like this. Even in the past 14 years, he didn't even dare to recall the appearance of his relatives.
It wasn't until this moment that Ling Xun truly realized what it was like to be cared and cared by relatives in this world.
"Sister, have you decided on a name for the child?" Ling Xun asked.
"I still don't know if it's a boy or a girl, how can I choose?" Ling Shu smiled and bent her eyes. She and Ling Xun don't really look alike. More like a father, with big and upright eyes, dignified and less charming, he looks like a lady from everyone.
Ling Xun simply said: "Take one as well, this time you don't need to use it next time."
Liu Ma came over and smiled: "Look at what Uncle said, it should be a name for a kitten and a puppy!"
Ling Shu lowered her head and gently stroked her stomach, "Your brother-in-law said that you are the most literate in our village, so you should name the baby."
Ling Xun regained his energy, "Really? Then I have to think about it!"
He really thought about it seriously for a long time, and said: "My eldest niece can't suffer so much like her parents and uncles. She will be raised in a honey pot after birth, why not call her Zhongli Gan!"
Ling Shu was stunned.
On the side, Mama Liu clapped her hands and applauded, "It's such a good name! Ma'am, it's better to be called Tiantian by your baby name!"
Ling Shu also nodded and laughed, "It's a good name, and your brother-in-law must like it too."
Mama Liu asked again, "Uncle, what if it's a boy?"
Ling Xun, who wanted a big niece to play with, stretched his waist in disgust, "Boy, let's talk about it after birth!"
Roughly a month had passed since the capital was burned down, and more and more refugees from the capital gathered at the foot of Qingping Mountain. By the end of the year, the number had reached several hundred.While Qingping Mountain is well-known, it is gradually exhausted and unable to support so many people.
Wu Qing is in charge of the property in Qingping Mountain. Seeing that the rice stored in the village seems to have been attacked by locusts, it is rapidly reduced every day, and his face is getting uglier day by day. When I ran into it, I thought I had encountered a tuberculosis ghost.
Every time Wu Qing sees Ling Xun, she doesn't speak, avoiding him like a plague god, Ling Xun himself can't figure out how to offend him so well.
Originally, Zhong Lishan had mentioned several times that he wanted to become sworn brothers with him and be the third leader of Qingping Mountain, but Ling Xun didn't think about whether he should stay in Qingping Mountain, and secondly, he was worried about Wu Qing, so he kept procrastinating. I don't agree.After all, Wu Qing is Zhong Lishan's serious sworn brother, the two have been friends for life since they were young, if he worships Zhong Lishan again, wouldn't he buy one and get one free?Facing Wu Qing's face, he couldn't call out "Second Brother".
A while ago he deliberately got drunk, and it was not unrelated to avoiding Zhong Lishan.
This day Ling Xun had just had lunch at Ling Shu, and just turned around from the back mountain, he heard someone arguing in the main village from a distance, he and Ah Cheng who was following behind him looked at each other, the two stopped at the same time.
Since Ah Cheng had been used as a bench by Ling Xun in prison, and it was the time when half-children rebelled, Ah Cheng didn't like to see Ling Xun, but since Ling Xun rescued them in the execution ground, his body The hair is also smooth.
Ah Chengtian has developed a pair of skillful hands. In the past two days, he has worked out a wooden cradle with four wheels underneath, which can be pushed around. It just happened to be sent to Ling Shu for a look, and Ling Shu left him to have dinner with Ling Xun. , the two of them came out together.
"Why do I sound like my master's voice?" Ah Cheng said to Ling Xun after listening to the quarrel for a while.
Ah Cheng's master is Wu Qing. Because of his dexterity, he has been learning mechanism skills from Wu Qing. He seldom calls Wu Qing the second master like others.
Ling Xun stood with his hands behind his back, listening with enthusiasm, and casually said: "Who else in Qingping Mountain dares to challenge your masters like this? To be honest, this bandit village has not been quarreled by these two people so far. It's really strange."
Ah Cheng glared at Ling Xun, "You are not allowed to say my master!"
Ling Xun was delighted, "Oh, the little one is quite capable of protecting people. Not bad, he can be made."
Ah Cheng was in a hurry, "Who are you calling younger? You, you..." Ah Cheng wanted to say that you were only a few years older than me, but he stuttered angrily.
Ling Xun has been serious in Lingshu for too long, and at this time he has a problem with his cheap mouth. Taking advantage of Ah Cheng's jam, he looked down at him for a while, and said right away: "Why are you panicking? I didn't say how young you are. Could it be that you have a guilty conscience?"
Ah Cheng: ...I'm fucking fighting with you goblin!
Ah Cheng threw himself at Ling Xun. Ling Xun was worried that he hadn't made a move for too long, and his joints were almost frozen. At this time, he met someone who came to beg for a beating, so he accepted it gladly.
"Say it in advance! You are not allowed to use formations! Otherwise, you will not be a man!" Ah Cheng wisely put forward the conditions.
Ling Xun acted like coaxing a child, "Okay, if you say no, then don't."
Seeing Ling Xun's lack of energy, Ah Cheng spat and cursed secretly in his heart: "You don't need to be complacent. If you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts. Sooner or later, there will be someone who can take care of you!"
It was raging outside, and the inside of the main village was also full of noise.
The content of the quarrel between Wu Qing and Zhong Lishan was still about the refugees taken in by the mountain.
"There is almost not enough food in the stockade to survive the winter. Either drive people away and stop distributing food, or everyone will starve to death together. The boss can make up his own mind." Wu Qing said very bluntly, putting on a face The attitude of the stall quitting.
Zhong Lishan never cared about these internal affairs, and he couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "Brother Feng brought so much gold and silver into the village, isn't it enough to exchange for food?"
"For food?" Wu Qing sneered angrily, "My boss, you should go outside to find out if there is anyone willing to sell food. Now that the world is chaotic and the weather is cold, no one wants to let go of food. Even if you hold gold bricks, you may not be able to exchange for a bucket of rice. If you want to buy grain, you have to go to Yizhou and Jingzhou. Dare I ask if our cottage is so powerful that it can snatch rice grain from the local snakes? Will it be transported back safely from the chaos?"
Zhong Lishan rubbed his forehead and sighed, obviously extremely tired, "Okay, there are a lot of things recently, we can discuss it after your sister-in-law is finished giving birth."
"Yes, in the heart of the master, what is more important than sister-in-law?" Wu Qing responded indifferently, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of her lips.
Just when he was about to leave, Zhong Lishan grabbed him from behind.
"Second brother, why is your complexion getting worse and worse?" Zhong Lishan then noticed Wu Qing's horribly pale face, grabbed Wu Qing's wrist and dragged Wu Qing back, frowning tightly, "Are you No... are you still taking those medicines?"
Seeing that Zhong Lishan finally cared about him, Wu Qing's eyes changed, he seemed less gloomy than before, but he still shook Zhong Lishan's hand away and said perfunctorily; "The boss should care more about his sister-in-law, and the younger brother will not bother you." You bothered."
"What kind of stupid words are you talking about! You are my brother, if I don't worry about you, who will worry about you?" Zhong Lishan was annoyed, and didn't notice Wu Qing's complicated expressions that changed several times, and only reprimanded him in a brotherly tone : "How many times have I told you, don't take those broken pills again! Formation masters are born, you don't have the ability to sense the five elements, why do you have to force it? If you can take medicine, you can become a formation master Come on, wouldn't there be as many array mages under the sun?!"
Unexpectedly, these words hit Wu Qing's pain, Wu Qing's eyes turned red instantly, and the veins on his forehead twitched, he shouted at Zhong Lishan: "I decide my own affairs, I don't need you to take care of them!"
Zhong Lishan's bull's eyes widened, and he scolded: "You don't need me to care? Don't look at how bad your body is now, and how weird your temper is, aren't you afraid that something will go wrong one day? !"
In the end, the two broke up after a quarrel, Wu Qing ran out angrily, and saw Ling Xun and A Cheng fighting on the slope outside the door at a glance.
Ling Xun was having a fight with Ah Cheng, because he didn't pay much attention, so when Wu Qing came out, he noticed him immediately when he came out, but it was Ah Cheng who was concentrating on playing, and saw Ling Xun sneaking out and showing a smile. Seeing an opening, he was overjoyed and punched Ling Xun directly on the shoulder.
"Haha, I'm hitting you right? I said, at most, you can catch me with a hundred tricks!" Ah Cheng laughed, and there was pure happiness unique to young people in his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Wu Qing became even paler, as if her lips had lost color.
Ling Xun looked at him, it was an ordinary exchange of eyes, but he was born with a pair of seductive smiling eyes, in the eyes of people who don't want to see him, these eyes are tantamount to showing off and provocation, no matter how you look at them, they deserve to be beaten .
At this time, Ah Cheng also turned around belatedly, and when he saw Wu Qing, he rushed over like a little wolf dog, and shouted happily: "Master!" , ready to wag its tail.
Wu Qing gave Ah Cheng a cold look, his eyes were so gloomy that they could form ice balls.
"Yo, have you climbed another branch so soon?"
Ah Cheng finally felt something was wrong, his tail wagged halfway and drooped down, his eyes widened innocently, and he yelled loudly: "Master, I..."
However, Wu Qing didn't allow him to continue to explain, and walked directly in front of Ling Xun. Although he was speaking to Ah Cheng, his eyes were on Ling Xun.
"That's right, it's better for people to go to high places and follow a real formation master than to follow me, an idiot."
Ling Xun: "..."
How do you say a word?He was shot while lying down.
Ling Xun felt that the heart of Wu's second master must be made of crystal, which would shatter at the touch of a finger.
After Wu Qing finished speaking, he left, and Ah Cheng hurriedly chased after him. The fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy's voice became hoarse when he heard it loudly.
Ling Xun watched the cold and hot master and apprentice go away, thought for a while, and then entered the main village.
Maybe it's because the two big fishes, the big one and the second one, are biting each other, and the little bandits are afraid of being caught in a pond, so they don't know where they are going at this time, and there is no one in the huge yard.
Ling Xun had just entered the door when Zhong Lishan came out and called "Second Brother".
After seeing who was coming, Zhong Lishan's face unavoidably collapsed again, and he greeted him with a sigh.
"Brother Feng, it's you..."
"What, you see my expression? Could it be because I'm not as good-looking as Wu Er's head?" Ling Xun joked sloppily.
Zhong Lishan covered his face and smiled wryly: "Do you think I'm still in the mood to joke now?"
After this month, he has been haggard a lot, almost turning his head gray.
Ling Xun also stopped playing tricks on him, and asked directly: "Brother Zhongli is worried about food?"
Zhong Lishan heard something in Ling Xun's words, "Why, brother Feng has a solution?"
"It's been half a month since I sent a letter to my family asking them to buy grain in Yizhou. If there are no accidents, I should be able to save enough."
Zhong Lishan almost jumped up on the spot when he heard it, his eyes lit up, "Really?!"
Ling Xun was frightened by his monkey-like reaction, quickly took two steps back, nodded cautiously, "Well, really."
"Your Jinxiu Tower...does it have a passageway to deliver goods?"
Ling Xun said: "It's no problem to transport it to the border of Yizhou. My family should have taken care of it. But after leaving Yizhou, I can't guarantee whether it will be blocked by ghosts and snakes."
"Success! As long as the food can be transported to the border of Yizhou, I will send my brothers to fetch it. Even if we fight a bloody road, we will definitely bring the food back!"
Zhong Lishan was overjoyed, the cloud of sorrow that covered his head suddenly dissipated half, looked around, and found that the boys in the main village had all absented from work, so he simply gave himself half a day off, and went to the back of the mountain to see his wife .
As Lingshu's delivery date approached, everyone in the village became nervous, fearing that something might be wrong.
But unexpectedly, with thousands of worries, something went wrong.
The midwife who was scheduled to come to the mountain to deliver Lingshu's baby was blocked halfway and couldn't make it.
