Tiger falls to Pingyang

In the middle of the night, everything was silent.

The lamps in the guest room are like beans, Shangguan Xiu is not yet sleepy, and is tired of writing cheat sheets on Wufu.

Wufu rested his chin with one hand, and put an embroidered pillow behind his head, half lying down, letting the boy rest on his legs leisurely, not thinking about whether others would be tired, taking it for granted.

Bored, the big palm clasped his ankle, measured the size, and the circle was locked just right.

"Boy, your feet are very white."

Shangguan Xiu ignored him.

He scratched the soles of his feet, which only caused him to shrink back, but he didn't make a sound.

"what are you writing?"

"Don't make noise..."

Wu Fu was startled, this kid thought he was noisy, and pulled his pants, but the person who wrote the cheat sheet didn't respond.

Suddenly, annoyed, "Wu Fu, don't make trouble with me..."

Hearing this, Wu Fu really wanted to bite the toes in front of him.

"It's time to sleep."

"don't want……"

"Sure?"

Shangguan Xiu turned a deaf ear.

Wu Fu stretched out his hand, "Give me a piece of paper."

"En." Shangguan Xiu tore off a sheet and handed it over.

After kneading into a ball, Wu Fu raised his hand and threw it out, and in an instant——

The room was dark.

The person who was stunned on the bed couldn't react in time, his hands were empty, and the three items of pen, ink and paper were gone.After a while, he lay flat on the bed, feeling less comfortable than leaning on Wufu's lap.

Feeling a chill in the lower body, the pants disappeared.

He finally reacted and shouted: "Don't go too far, I don't want to sleep yet!"

The person hanging on him snorted softly: "I didn't intend to let you sleep either... I remember you said before that you wouldn't think I was noisy, but also that I was too quiet."

"Uh...is there?" Shangguan Xiu couldn't remember, "How long ago?"

"Yes, it happened two years ago, but you didn't realize that I wanted to put you under me a long time ago, to eat you alive..."

The clothes were thrown out of the bed, and the boy under him turned over, trying to escape.

He hooked his waist, and his big palm just aroused his enthusiasm, and the very satisfying low panting echoed in the room.

Folding behind the little sheep, Hungry Tiger opened his mouth to lick the back of his ears, sprayed his breath on his ears, and said with a sinister smile, "Boy, it's too loud for you."

"Woo--" He wanted to cry but had no tears... a bit regretful... how could he be so lucky that he got a beast if he didn't hold someone back at the beginning... so angry... it's all because of those unscrupulous relatives who made him end up like this... When tomorrow's strength recovers, I'm going to smash the shop... to vent my hatred...

Near noon, Shangguan Hao and a few staff saw that there were no customers coming, so they simply had an early meal and had a drink.

Next to the counter, a group of large cypress tea tables are placed on the inner side of the space for entertaining the distinguished guests.

However, due to the ups and downs of the business in the shop, most of the time there are no visitors, the shopkeeper and the guys are in a good mood, making tea, drinking, and playing chess are common things.

Playfulness is on the rise, and ignorant strangers come to the door again——

There were five people at the cypress tea table, laughing and laughing, drinking and playing chess, chatting about where they went to prostitutes last night, which restaurant had beautiful girls...

This time, a rugged and tall warrior joined them and sat on the outer cypress bench. Just by leaning over, it took up nearly a quarter of the cypress table.

Everyone was stunned, the uninvited barbarian warrior drank a jug of wine, with his chin resting on his hand, he looked more relaxed than them.

"Why, are you all dumb?" He said the words in a clear voice, half-closed his eyes, put down the empty flagon, grabbed it with his big hand, and a large number of black and white pieces on the chessboard were missing.

Shangguan Hao immediately came back to his senses and roared: "You are so brave, who will allow you to be so presumptuous!"

"Cousin, I, Mr. Yunwu, did this." Shangguanxiu poked his head out from the carved wooden frame, smiling broadly, "Who taught me that I can't learn how to be a fool, and I'm very happy with my drinking, sex and wealth. By the way, Wu Fu can’t play the chess pieces of our Han people, I have to teach him my cousin.”

"You... are here to make trouble, aren't you?"

He generously admitted, "Didn't I know you just now, I've learned badly!" Chick, he aimed at the target, lifted a stack of black glazed porcelain bowls and smashed them on the ground, "Kuang lang— —" It shattered immediately.

He raised his eyebrows and stared, not surprisingly his cousin opened his mouth wide, too scared to speak.

The clerk jumped up anxiously and shouted: "Why are you smashing things in the shop...I'm going to report to the police...and you and this barbarian beast...arrested and punished!"

"Please!" He continued to smash confidently, the shop was full of rattles and rattles, pots, pans, pots, pots, etc... everything was broken, and the floor was in a mess.

The warrior twisted the chess in his hands, and it instantly turned into powder... one, two, three... none of them were intact.

Everyone was frightened by the actions of these two people, and disasters came inexplicably. No one dared to go around Wu Fu's side, as if they were imprisoned, they huddled in the corners.

Shangguanxiu had done enough, looking around the shop, there were no more ceramic wares from the Longquan Kiln, stepping on the broken tiles, he walked to the counter and snorted coldly: "I forgive you for not dared to report to the government!"

"You..." Shangguan Hao knew the inside story, and was worried whether the other party had grasped his only weakness...

Shangguan Xiu pointedly said: "I know exactly what my kiln produced in the past. Cousin, don't forget where I grew up!"

At a glance, there was a black glazed teacup on the shelf behind the counter, "You know what to do, you put a rabbit hair glaze on it..." He walked around the counter, stepped on the stool and took it off, "This is The real thing...Dad would put the treasures of the store in every shop when he was alive...you don't deserve to have it, this is what dad brought back from the Longquan Kiln in Yang County..."

He held it like a treasure, bowed his head and called out: "Wufu, let's go."

Wu Fu stood up and followed.

Outside the gate of the shop, there was already a crowd of people. Shangguanxiu turned a blind eye to what others thought of him, holding the teacup... like holding his father's ashes... His heart was so sad that even his mother abandoned him. He turned his head slowly, understanding What kind of emotion is that? Mother doesn't want to live alone without her father.

His eyes caught Wu Fu's closeness to his side, nudging him away from the place of right and wrong.

"What - the young master went to smash the shop?!" Yan Huaisheng yelled in disbelief, he didn't know anything about what happened at noon when the guest was talking about it.

"Shopkeeper Yan Da, what's the matter with your young master? Isn't Longquan's new shop also owned by Shangguan's family? How could he smash his own shop?"

"Uh... this... I don't know about my young master..."

The guest didn't wait for him to finish, and continued to say with a sympathetic face: "I understand, your young master probably comes to the door and asks for money, but you can't get it, so you should just smash the shop to vent your anger, right?"

"No no no... that's not the case."

"Oh, you are too honest, don't favor him like this anymore, I understand your difficulties." The old man who bought two vases left without shaking his head, sighing again and again...

Yan Huaisheng stood at the counter, dumbfounded.

After a while, he walked out of the counter, recruited the waiter to look at the shop, and headed towards the direction of the guest room.

"Knock knock—"

Yan Huaisheng waited outside the door for a while, but no one answered, he simply called softly: "Master."

After a while, Wu Fu opened the door and said coldly, "The boy is fast asleep."

"Uh... Since the young master is taking a nap, I won't bother you."

After closing the door, Wu Fu returned to the bed and lay on his side, the person in his arms was still sleeping with a teacup in his arms.

Outside the door, Yan Huaisheng really couldn't understand, how could Wufu and the young master... be together?

Fortunately, outsiders didn't see it, otherwise the young master's reputation would be even worse... Hey!

He shook his head, at a young age, but with an overly mature attitude, he walked all the way back to the shop, dealing with a dirty young man, holding a basket of bowls that looked burnt, cracked, and gray in color for sale. ——

He took it and kindly gave one or two.But the young man cried, took the two and left.

"Bastard!" Shangguan Si didn't know where to put his old face when he learned that the shop had been smashed.He yelled at a clerk: "Hurry up and close the door of the store, it's hard to make people continue to watch jokes."

"Father... what should we do now?"

"Are you sure it was Shangguan Xiu who smashed it?"

"Yes, father, everyone has witnessed this incident with their own eyes, how dare my son lie to you."

"He smashed it alone?"

"He brought another person, a barbarian beast."

"Barbarians?"

Shangguan Hao recounted the incident... "Father, I'm afraid you don't know that Shangguan Xiu spent his days and nights, domineering with barbarian warriors, and even pawned and squandered old antiques..."

"That boy..." In my impression, he was a soft persimmon to be squeezed by others. At the beginning, he was driven to a desperate situation, thinking that he would reveal the secret recipe of celadon. There is also half life left.

"Father, the things my cousin threw are all things we imitated Longquan Kiln..."

Shangguan Si was taken aback, "Did he see it?"

Shangguan Hao kept silent.

"Is it true!"

Shangguan Hao nodded, "He said that he knows what Longquan Kiln produced..."

Shangguan Si was shocked, "That kid has something to do with us..."

Inside the shop, there are debris all over the floor, as if warning that the business under the banner will be destroyed...

Staying in the shop, Shangguanxiu ate slowly, only leftovers were left on the short table, and the rest was swept away by the warrior.People are drinking on the sidelines.

"... Strange, you will let me have everything, but you won't let me eat." Shangguanxiu muttered while eating.

"If I eat like you, how long will it take to finish a meal?" He hummed softly, took the food with his chopsticks and put it into his bowl.The small wine jug was almost empty, and he drank slowly, filling his stomach with the kid.

"Oh."

The two of them acted as if they didn't exist, chatted with each other, and even didn't shy away from customers coming to the door. Anyway, their reputation in their hometown was bad enough, and they didn't miss out on extra money.

"Wufu, after I'm full..."

Before he finished speaking, Wufu directly asked, "Where do you want to go shopping this time?"

"Let's go to the official residence, I don't know if my uncle likes it or not..." He raised his eyes, and there was a trace of cruelty in his eyes.

"Boy, are you going to make people unable to eat?"

"You really know me."

"Of course..." The next sentence brushed his ear and said, "I know exactly how many hairs you have on your body..."

Shangguan Xiu stared blankly for a moment... Unable to answer the words, he simply lowered his head to eat, his face was slightly hot.

Wu Fu hooked his lips and sneered.It's rare for a brat without a muscle to feel ashamed... Suddenly, I feel hungry again... I want to take him to the room to fill my appetite.

In the evening, a carriage stopped outside the gate of the official residence, and Shangguan Xiu brought a warrior to find trouble, and came prepared——

The servant led the man into the hall, Shangguanxiu took his seat unceremoniously, and ordered the warrior to put a large box under the table of the Eight Immortals in the hall, and this time directly put the vase on the table, he waited and saw—the uncle's face would change Bean green, dead gray or earthy?

The servant hadn't left yet, staring and panting. The master's nephew brought a barbarian... He was rough and tall, and his imposing manner was like a general.

"Wufu, come and sit down. Uncle's servant has nothing against me, and you almost scared people into fainting."

He sat beside him as he said, and heard him say again:

"Uncle and my father made an oath at the beginning, the two brothers will not distinguish between you and me. So strictly speaking, half of this official house belongs to me."

When the people who came to the hall heard these words, their complexions changed, and they roared angrily: "What a nephew, dare to covet the old man's property!"

Shangguan Xiu did not show weakness, "I'm not so shameless—uncle!" He didn't even get up, he learned martial arts, he didn't understand Han etiquette, and he was not too polite to others.

As soon as Shangguan Si took his seat, he glared at him angrily, "A few days ago, you smashed up the shop, and I haven't settled with you yet, but you came here by yourself."

"Uncle." He called kindly, and stated confidently: "You have a bad memory. Didn't I just say that half of your property belongs to my father. He is already mad at you, so I should inherit it. My own shop is only for pleasure, so what is the crime?"

Shangguan Si almost couldn't lift it up in one breath, his staring eyes were red, looking at the calm kid, he came to find trouble with confidence!

Shangguan Xiu stretched out his hand and pointed, "Uncle, please take a good look, what's on the table of the Eight Immortals?"

With a glance, his whole body trembled, and his heart suddenly turned cold... "Where did you... that vase come from?"

"Uncle, don't play dumb with me." Shangguanxiu stood up, walked slowly to the table, held the bottom of the vase, and slammed the vase on the edge of the table. With a sound of "pound--", ​​the porcelain pieces fell off one by one , jingling sounded in a room.

He took the bottom of the vase and tapped it with his fingers, with a smile on his face, "Isn't this vase produced by the Longquan kiln that Uncle invaded me? Could it be that Uncle is dazzled and doesn't recognize it?"

"What do you want to do, take back the property, or..."

"I don't want to do anything!" He grew angry, and said clearly, "I just came here to remind uncle that what my father said was right, you sold our family's property cheaply and ruined our future..."

He seized the only handle and exposed: "Official kilns cannot be privately owned. My uncle is doing business for his own benefit and expanding the business of exporting porcelain. If the people above know that you have embezzled flowers and trees... the celadon that is brought into the palace is all counterfeit products..."

Suddenly, Shangguan Si's face turned pale.

Shangguan Xiu shook his head, walked up to the uncle with the broken porcelain, and asked respectfully, "Do you want me to let you live?"

Shangguan Si's mouth trembled, his expression flustered, the nephew who was close at hand was no longer the young master who knew nothing about the world...

"Why didn't uncle talk?"

"Old man... old man..."

Shangguan Xiu put the bottom of the bottle into his hands, and at the same time made a settlement: "It was you who broke my lifeline, and it was you who pissed my father off... It was you who destroyed the Longquan Kiln... You are greedy for profit... those under the banner The number of porcelain shipped by ship is probably quite a lot, and outsiders don’t know that those porcelains all come from official kilns, tsk tsk...you are really as my father said when he was alive—you are so bold!"

Shangguan Si slumped on the seat, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the bottom of the bottle fell instantly, rolling not far away before stopping.

Shangguan Xiu turned his face away, and immediately dismissed it. Staying here is just insulting himself.

He raised his head and chest, and called out for the last time: "Uncle. I am the only pride of my father. He has kept one thing from you for a long time. I burned the three-foot celadon vase that made the name of Longquan Kiln, but you destroyed it. Everything, do it yourself."

Wu Fu stood up and waited not far away.

Shangguanxiu immediately gave up everything within reach, chose the one and only love, walked to Wufu's side, and was willing to create a better future with him.

In the hall, only Shangguan was left with a dead face, unable to recover for a long time...

A few days later, Shangguanxiu went to the Risheng Ticket Office again and told the shopkeeper Chen a secret——

"That celadon vase is fake."

"Ah, fake? Really fake? Not real?"

"It's a fake." He whispered, "The celadon vase I mortgaged is an imitation made in an official kiln. Shopkeeper Chen doesn't have to doubt it."

"Ah...you dare to lie to me?! I spent 5000 taels of silver to buy a fake..." He almost foamed at the mouth, and fell back straight, bang!The lump of flesh didn't fall to death, it just made it dizzy...

Shangguan Xiu knelt down and asked with concern, "Does it matter?"

Shopkeeper Chen's eyes hanged himself, and he really wanted to hang himself with a rope.

Shangguan Xiu didn't help him up, and hummed a few words: "You were tricked by me, but by my cousin! He came up with this idea, and he exchanged terms with me, willing to return the house to me. But if I cheat money from you..."

Master Chen foamed at the mouth.

Shangguan Xiuhaosheng comforted him: "You have to ask him to settle this account...and I tell you this secret, just to find an opportunity to help you build your reputation, and it is worth 5000 taels of silver. Isn't it?"

He nodded straight with a red face, hoping that this kid will get out of here quickly!lest I have a stroke...

Shangguanxiu smiled in satisfaction, stood up, gestured to the martial artist with his eyes, and after a while, the two left together when they came.

"Boy, do you still have tricks to play?"

"No more. Let them go dog-eat-dog...a mouthful!"

"Borrowing a knife to kill, you are ruthless."

"I'll treat him in the same way." He gently pulled the corner of the warrior's sleeve, walked for a while, and decided in his heart: "I want to go back to the ancestral hall of the old house..."

"Well, lead the way."

Shangguanxiu took him all the way back to the ancestral hall of the old house. The scenery remained the same, but the personnel affairs were different. He immediately knelt down and saluted the ancestors.After that, carefully holding the tablets of father and mother, he left the sad place without looking back.

Fulfilling a wish, he bid farewell to Yan Huaisheng, and left Longquan time-honored shop within two days.

As soon as the two of them left the outskirts of the city, they were followed by someone. The warrior was calm and relaxed, and didn't care much about the merchants who followed the carriage all the way.

"Boy, do you want to sleep?"

"I don't want to." Shangguan Xiu leaned beside him, unaware that he was in danger.

Wu Fu bowed his head and said, "After dark, you are not allowed to sleep."

"Uh...why?"

He sneered: "There are wild dogs coming and going."

"Wild dogs..." Shangguan Xiu looked left and right, but didn't even see half of them.After a while, he turned his head and stared at Wu Fu with a very cold expression, and the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, as if he was distracted.

"Wu Fu, where do you want to stay?"

"In the woods."

"Oh... I'm afraid there will be snakes..." He bowed his head and looked annoyed. Because of the lessons learned from the past, Wufu was discriminated against. Although the two of them are used to living and eating outside, their daily needs will inevitably be inconvenient.

The space inside the carriage hood is limited, Wu Fu was born tall and rough, the two of them huddled together, always felt that Wu Fu was wronged...

"Boy, sleep for a while, so that you will be energetic at night." He was worried that the boy next to him would be confused when he fell asleep, weak and defenseless.After nightfall, he has worries about catching dogs.

Shangguan Xiu was silent, vaguely sensed that something was wrong, he obediently climbed into the hood, staggered all the way, and fell asleep within a short time.

The night is dark, and there are few people in the wilderness.

A carriage was parked under a tree, near the stream, with gurgling water and chirping insects.

Wufu woke up the boy, and the two ate dry food, but did not light a fire to barbecue.

When he was away from home, Shangguan Xiu relied on him. Unless he entered the town market, everything would be handled by Wu Fu.

Staying in the hood, he looked up and watched the warrior take off the yoke and let the horse graze. Reassured, he retracted into the hood and waited for the warrior to return to his side.

After a while, Wufu pointed his head and explained: "Boy, wait for me in the hood of the car, don't run around, and don't fall asleep."

"Okay." Thinking that Wu Fu was going to fetch water by the stream, he didn't think much at the moment.

Wu Fu suddenly jumped onto the steed, and disappeared in just a moment——

Shangguan Xiu waited for a long time, looking around in a panic, the inside of the hood was dim, he hugged his legs, and his mind was full of wild thoughts: Are there any poisonous snakes and beasts coming to bite... Are there any bandits...

The more he waited, the more anxious he became, and he couldn't help getting out of the car to look for Wu Fu.

In the woods miles away—

Several officials disguised themselves as business travelers, delivered a few empty boxes and food, lit a fire, cooked a pot of meat, and drank a few cups of yellow soup. One of them said: "Let's wait until midnight to wait for an opportunity..."

"Heh, wait for someone to fall asleep...kill him by surprise, without anyone noticing!"

"How about that young master Shangguan?"

"He hangs out with barbarian bastards... we have no choice but to kill him. Anyway, people live in other places, and no one will know what happened to him at all."

A few people drank and ate meat without fear, and the ignorant people who wanted to kill had tracked them nearby, and they could be seen sitting around for a picnic from a distance...

——He smirked and jumped off the steed.

Holding a scimitar in his hand, it shone brightly in the night, wondering how to kill... The hidden figure gradually emerged from the woods, passing by a few official horses, the knife scraped the ground, disturbing the restlessness of the horses, Deliberately get the attention of others.

drink!

Seeing this, an official immediately threw away the jug, drew his knife and shouted, "Someone is coming!"

The others became alert immediately, drew their knives one after another, and lined up in a row.

"It's a barbarian bastard!"

"He's the only one, we have five, hurry up!"

The few officials were used to domineering, but that day they lost face in the inn and planted a murderous plan. After wanting to take revenge, they exposed their corpses in the wilderness.

A swarm of swarms rushed forward, slashing and slashing randomly when raising the sword, without any rules, in the chaos, the martial arts sword raised and fell, and immediately saw the bones——

The wailing resounded through the woods. Some people lost their hands and feet, and some had blood gushing out from their waists and abdomens. The red mist polluted the grass in an instant.

The officials were stabbed before they even saw it clearly. In a blink of an eye, those who fell to the ground fell to the ground, and those who could escape ran away, and those who looked like dogs were crying for their father and mother...

Wufu stood where he was, curling his lips dullly.

Holding a knife, he wiped the blood stains on the body of one of them, his eyes were cold, and he turned a deaf ear to the man whimpering and rolling at his feet.

"Hey, it's really useless..." He couldn't even get up the energy to kill, and he turned away expressionlessly.

Shangguan Xiu put his arms around his feet, worried and frightened.Suddenly, the car body shook, he was startled, and shouted in a panic: "Martial arts?"

The person who got into the hood was wet.

Shangguan Xiu was stunned: "Are you going to take a bath by the stream?"

"Um."

"Why don't you change your clothes, you'll get wet..." He found Wu Fu's clothes in the dark, and handed them to him to change.I couldn't help thinking: "Don't leave me in this kind of place in the future, I will be afraid... and you wash for a long time..." I was very scared. I used to have someone to accompany me wherever I went, let alone the kiln. There are thousands of kiln workers...

Regardless of whether Wufu's clothes are on or not, he is close to his side, making the other person feel that he is really in the way.

A voice came from the top: "Boy, can you let me dress properly?"

He clung to him and hummed uncomfortably, "I didn't hinder you."

"..." After a while, after finally getting dressed, he said again: "You can sleep peacefully, I'll drive, let's go back early."

"Oh." He couldn't fall asleep at all, then crawled to Wufu's side, and fell asleep again.
