[Comprehensive Martial Arts] The Road to Powerful Ministers

"Master, where are we going?" Bixi sat upright and asked immediately.

"Huh? What did you call me?" Yun Wei raised his eyebrows.

"Yun...Master Yun, where are we going?" Bi Xi still couldn't call him by his first name.

Yun Weijuan pointed to the Populus euphratica tree in front of him, and said, "Let's cross the Great Wall first."

It is reasonable to say that the spring breeze does not pass through Yumen Pass.In the north, they rarely see large expanses of green, but after crossing the Great Wall, it seems that the mountains and rivers are gentler.

When Yun Weijue and Bixi arrived in the border town, they only felt a whole new world.

After driving for a few days, Yun Weijue and Bixi found an inn to freshen up. Although they had a lot of money, they didn't dare to go to the Regal Restaurant with a high profile. They just found a high-end restaurant in the residential area.

One of them was young, the other was a woman, neither asked for wine, but only ate vegetables with hot mare's milk, it wasn't that they didn't want to drink tea, it's just that the tea in the northwest... let alone, they didn't dare to try strong alcohol.Bixi pinched her nose and took a sip of mare's milk and said, "Master Yun, is this mare's milk broken?" The smell was so strong and scary.

"This guest officer can't say that." Before Yun Weijue could speak, the shopkeeper next to him couldn't hold back, "My mare's milk in Huyanglou can be counted in the whole border city." This shop is small, and the shopkeeper His son has many jobs, his son is the waiter, the mistress, and the cook, so it is easy to hear them talking.

"The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, my sister is not used to drinking, so I don't care about your mare's milk." Yun Weijue apologized quickly.

"Yo, it's okay, it's okay, there are often outsiders who are not used to drinking, dare to ask where is the fairy town?"

"Don't dare, come from Jiangnan." Yun Weijue replied without blinking.

"No wonder, no wonder, I have long heard that the people in the south are good-looking. Looking at the young man, you can tell that you are from that rich and noble town. When you come to our northwest, the old man will also entertain you with some good things, so as not to lose the border town Face! I have the best sorghum wine here, sir, why don't you come to two jars?" The shopkeeper enthusiastically sold it.

"Hey, I'm talking about Lao Yang!" A familiar diner next to him interjected, "He came all the way from Jiangnan, and you tricked him into buying your broken wine. Look, is this the age of drinking?"

"Go and go, you can be found everywhere. My son came to the border town to see the specialties of the Northwest. Could it be possible that I can still serve scented tea? Isn't that a big knife in front of Guan Gong!" The shopkeeper waved his hand like a fly.

"I still don't believe it, scented tea, what is that, have you heard of it or seen it, Lao Yang, do you have this precious thing in your store?" The diner said inhumanely.

"Damn the bearded man, you know how to set the stage for me. You come to drink again today. I won't credit you. Pay back the money, pay it back right away!" The people next to him laughed and cursed.It can be seen that the relationship between the two is very good, and they are all smiling when they say they are collecting debts.

"It is said that people from the Northland are bold. I saw you today, and it is true." Yun Weizhen said while drinking his mare's milk.

"Brilliant? Except for that bearded man who is bold when drinking, how can the young master know that the northerners are bold." Bixi rolled her eyes and said.

Yun Wei smiled and said nothing, as long as he was not in the square courtyard of the Western Demon Cult, everyone looked cute.

The shopkeeper and the acquainted diners laughed and cursed, the cold wind blowing in the hallway, even the passers-by outside with their necks shrunk against the wind and snow, Yun Weijue found it pleasing to the eye.

It's just that on this windy and snowy night, discordant notes suddenly appeared.

"Ge Laozi, get out, get out, get out of the way!" a big man outside the door cursed, and kicked away a black mass, Yun Weizhen took a closer look, it seemed to be a person?

The big man pushed open the door, and brought in a gust of cold wind, which caused the people sitting in the main hall to curse a few times.

"It's cold, it's cold, why don't you close the window!" The big man pointed to the small window next to the door and said, "You know how to trouble me!"

"Xiao Laoliu, hurry up and enjoy the fire!" Someone next to him knew him and greeted him: "Close the window, there are so many people, so many braziers, you want to suffocate to death!"

The shopkeeper didn't even ask him what he wanted, and someone who knew the way well brought him some food. The big man named Xiao Laoliu just grabbed the mutton and ate it.

Yun Weijue looked at the figure through the small window, curled up into a ball with difficulty, and leaned against the door of the inn, as if he was still a child.

"I said Sixth, if you are not feeling well, don't take it out on that child all the time, it's not easy." The shopkeeper said while ordering things.

"Hey, that kid, you just have a bad heart for rubbing the brazier outside the door all day." Xiao Laoliu said.

"If I was really kind, I would have called him in, but my house is full of guests... Well, as long as he doesn't hinder my business, you can rub it if you like." The shopkeeper took back the tray.

"Hmph, why don't you interfere with the business? That boy, when I came in, he was still begging for money by the corner of my clothes! All the customers in your shop were disturbed by him!" Xiao Laoliu was chewing on the mutton. road.

Yun Weijue saw that the child was pitiful, and it was the first time in his life that he encountered such a situation, so he couldn't help being curious, and asked, "Shopkeeper, that person outside...that child, what's going on?"

"Oh, guest officer..." Just as the shopkeeper was about to answer, Xiao Laoliu who had just entered the door spoke.

"What else could be going on? You don't know how rich you are, a little kid. Even if his parents died, he dragged a younger brother to live by himself! When the weather is warm, he can still earn two meals by relying on his cleverness. It's cold, it's good to survive." Xiao Laoliu said.

"That little beggar is also pitiful, he is a cripple himself, and he has a brother who is sick and consumptive." Another diner interjected next to him.

"What's disabled?" Yun Weixuan asked, seeing that the man got up and walked back to the door and curled up just now, he didn't look like someone with incomplete limbs or any obvious problems.

"What are you talking about, my good sorghum wine can't stop your mouth!" The shopkeeper scolded, "Young master, these rough people, don't be as knowledgeable as them, don't be as knowledgeable as them." The shopkeeper smiled apologetically. road.

Yun Weijue and Bixi are dressed in rich and noble clothes, with weapons hanging from their waists. The shopkeeper has been in business for decades, and he still has a good eye for seeing people. He always heard from the people in the past that women, children, and monks are untouchable in this arena. , and look at their outfits, rich people can't touch them!This child is able to come from the south of the Yangtze River to the northwest with only one maid. What a great ability.

"It's okay, it's okay, I see that you all know that kid, why don't you invite him in to warm up by the fire, it's really too cold outside." Yun Wei said with relief, "Just treat him as a slapstick, I've got the money."

"The guest officer is kind, there is no need for you to pay money, as long as you don't mind, just let him in, just come in." The shopkeeper hurriedly ran to open the door, and the most honorable table in this hall was Yun Weixuan. Well, the others are all neighbors in the neighborhood, so it doesn't matter.

The shopkeeper said a few words at the door, and the child stood up unsteadily, and walked over to kowtow to Yun Weizhen.In this windy and snowy weather, he actually only wore two thin clothes, his complexion was sallow, and he was skinny.

"Get up, it's a casual act, it shouldn't be such a big gift, get up and sit down." Yun Weizhen pointed to the seat opposite him, and ordered the shopkeeper to bring some easy-to-treat food. It seemed that the child hadn't eaten for a long time. There are big fish and meat on their table, which is not suitable for this child to eat.

"Hey, you can eat." Seeing that the child only ate steamed buns and didn't dare to pick up vegetables, Yun Weijue picked up a chopstick for him with the serving chopsticks and said, "I'm giving you some steamed buns, it's not that you won't be allowed to eat meat , it’s just that if you haven’t eaten for a long time, and you suddenly eat too much oily meat, you’ll have a stomachache. Don’t eat too much now, just take a break after eating two steamed buns, and wait for an hour or two before eating. This is the essence of maintenance Do you understand?"

The child nodded silently, still stuffing things in his mouth.

"Don't be too busy. I'll give you everything on this table. I heard that you have a younger brother. When you're full, bring back what you can't finish and feed him."

"Master Xie." The child said the first words when he entered the door.

Yun Weijue was sitting next to him, and the child was also restrained, trying to huddle himself into a ball with his arms and legs intertwined to occupy the smallest space. In this way, Yun Weijue didn't want to disturb him from eating, so he only asked Bixi to stay here with him Him, he went upstairs first.

He finished washing in the room and was drying his hair when Bixi came in, and Yun Weixuan asked, "The child has gone back?"

"Going back." Bixi asked, "If the young master takes pity on him, just give him a few taels of silver."

"Bixi, this matter is still unclear, so don't make any conclusions."

"Didn't those diners say that there are so many people, and everyone is not a liar, right?" Bixi said, the most painful thing she experienced was after her parents died, her aunt wanted him to marry a foreign businessman. I know the rivers and lakes are dangerous.

"These people are all locals. We are newcomers, so how do we know they won't join forces to deceive people? What if they want to take advantage of people's sympathy and trick us into that child's residence, killing people and stealing money?" Yun Wei Jue looked at Bixi exclaiming in disbelief, and said in disbelief: "Take a step back and say, what is the child's situation? I gave him a few taels of silver today, but he can't keep it. If he really has a sick and weak brother, he can't bear the burden." Heavy, if there is a burden, it will only be bullied by other local hooligans. I gave him money, but I caused trouble for him. Bixi, walking in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to speculate on others with the greatest malice. It is good to be kind. But you have to do it right.”

Bixi had to admit that Yun Weijue was the one who was more thoughtful, and just muttered: "Since we all know, and let him come in for dinner, the young master still sympathizes with him."

Yun Weizhen laughed dumbly, yes, sympathy, but sympathy is not omnipotent, and he is not omnipotent.

Yun Weijue took this as an episode, but he didn't expect to meet that child again when they went out of the city the next day.
