Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

Xue Zhao looked at Xiao Yu: "Mr. Lang, this method sounds feasible, but how to break through, how to break through?"

Xiao Yu spread his hands: "It's up to Mr. Xue, I'm just offering a suggestion."

Xue Zhao was silent.

Xiao Yu asked Yang Ying: "The Sai people never trade with people from the mountain?"

Yang Ying said: "No, they also have to go down the mountain to exchange salt and some items. It's just that I don't know who is from the Jumo tribe, unless they go to Longhu Mountain to guard, but Longhu Mountain is now occupied by bandits, and there are few people. If there are too many people, I dare not go, and if there are too many people, I will scare the snake away.”

Xiao Yu said: "Then go find someone with a high degree of art."

Everyone fell silent for a while, and the atmosphere seemed dull and awkward, so Yang Ying took the initiative to leave.

Xue Zhao said: "It's really hard to find the person Lang Jun mentioned."

Pei Linzhi, who had been silent all this time, said, "Let me try."

Xiao Yu looked at him: "Rinzhi."

Pei Linzhi nodded at him.

Xue Zhao clasped his fists: "Young master understands righteousness deeply, and the lower officials admire him."

Pei Linzhi said: "Let's go first, and when we have made progress, we will discuss with Lord Xue about sending troops."

After leaving the Governor's Mansion, Xiao Yu looked at Pei Linzhi apologetically, "I'm going to put you in danger again."

Pei Linzhi looked at him: "If I don't share my worries for you, who else can there be? If this bandit is not eliminated, our porcelain kiln will not be able to continue running. The people around will also be in a situation of being robbed for a long time."

Xiao Yu laughed: "Rinzhi understands me best."

Pei Linzhi looked at his smile, and softened his voice: "Go back, Mr. Wang hasn't slept all night, it's time to go back and rest."

Xiao Yu yawned: "I'm fine, you didn't sleep either."

Pei Linzhi walked to the side of the horse, took the reins from Ji Hai, got on the horse, bent down and stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Yu onto the horse's back, let him sit behind him, and said to Ji Hai: "Ji Hai, go back."

"Yes, Master!" Ji Hai replied quickly.

"Lang Jun, sit still." One of Pei Lin clamped the horse's belly, and drove the horse out of the city.

Xiao Yu put his arms around Pei Linzhi's waist, turned around and saw Ji Hai running after him with his feet loose, and felt apologetic in his heart: "I let Ji Hai run back and forth twice today, can't I take him to ride a horse together?"

Pei Linzhi said: "The horse can't bear it, so it should be practiced more. He dare not complain."

Of course Xiao Yu knew that Ji Hai would not complain, but he just felt sorry. Ji Hai was not very old, and on such a hot day, he ran around without any hesitation: "You are a good apprentice. Be nice to him."

Pei Linzhi answered in front: "Yes."

Now that the basic plan has been determined, as for how to get close to Sairen, he still needs to figure out a way.On the way back, Xiao Yu was thinking about how to get in touch with Sairen. Even if Pei Linzhi followed him, he had to find a way to get close and gain trust.

What will Sairen change when he goes down the mountain?It must be something they don't have, such as needles and threads, pots and pans, kitchen knives and scissors.Xiao Yu had a flash of inspiration, and there it is, let Pei Linzhi pretend to be a salesman.

As soon as he got home, Xiao Yu couldn't wait to tell Pei Linzhi his idea. After hearing this, Pei Linzhi felt very embarrassed: "Let me be a salesman?"

"That's right, the shopkeeper walks around the streets and alleys, so it won't arouse people's suspicion if he appears at their place, and it's easier to get close to them." Thinking of this, Xiao Yu thought it was very funny, "If I didn't know martial arts, I would have wanted to go there by myself." gone."

The corner of Pei Linzhi's mouth twitched: "Then I'll go."

The next day, Min Chong and Ji Shan rode their horses to find the ox-drawn cart.Xiao Yu dragged Pei Linzhi into the city. After looking around, he simply bought a peddler's outfit on the street. Since he wanted to fake it, he had to do it well. After all, how could a peddler who speaks official language have a brand new outfit? .

According to Sairen's needs, Xiao Yu bought some more things, such as plasters, kitchen knives, scissors, axes, etc., and took some paper from home, so he put it all together, and shook a rattle in his hand, He became a real little shopkeeper.

Xiao Yu stuffed the rattle into Pei Linzhi's hand: "Rinzhi, walk around and yell a few times, needles—threads—comb oil—"

Pei Linzhi has never played with a rattle since he was three years old, and now he is about 20 years old, and he is so ashamed that he has a rattle again and wants to sell it. He blushed, opened his mouth, and couldn't scream at all.

Xiao Yu laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, and the children around him laughed along, wanting to see how the wise and mighty Pei Langjun would sell his goods.

Xiao Yu said: "I knew you couldn't do it, so I'll go."

Pei Linzhi blushed anxiously: "You can't go."

"But you can't say it out loud. Besides, the salesman needs to be sharp-tongued and smooth-tongued. Your image and temperament really don't match." Xiao Yu pinched his chin and said.

Pei Linzhi was not convinced: "Could it be that Mr. Lang is in line?"

Xiao Yu said: "If I change my makeup, I will look more like you." In terms of communicating with people, Xiao Yu thinks he is better than Pei Linzhi.

Pei Linzhi said again: "What about the safety issue, what should you do if you encounter bandits?"

This is indeed a big problem. Xiao Yu rolled his eyes and came up with another idea: "Yes, you come with me. I am a shopkeeper and you are my brother, but you have to pretend to be a fool. Otherwise, you are such a big man How could you follow me?"

When Pei Linzhi heard that he was asked to follow, he nodded, "Okay."

When Min Chong and Ji Shan came back with the cart, Xiao Yu had already turned into a small shopkeeper.The cattle of Lin Haisheng's family were really lost and could not be found. Xiao Yu compensated his family for a cow. Before the porcelain started to be fired, he had already lost a cow. The cost was really high. One cow cost two dollars. Hang money.

After two days of diagnosis and treatment in Huichun Hall, Haisheng was taken back for recuperation.This time I brought back the four big carts of clay, and it should be able to be used for a long time.Before the bandits were wiped out, Xiao Yu didn't intend to let people dig clay, and exchange his life for it, even if it was Jin Kela, he was not willing.

So the top priority is to solve the bandit problem.In order to adapt to his new identity as soon as possible, Xiao Yu peddles exercise business in the village every day: "Needles, threaders, combing oil—rice cakes, windmills, rattles—" are all things that women and children like. He and his children gathered around, not to mention how popular they are in the village, and they really sold a lot of things.

The rice cakes and windmills were made by Xiao Yu himself.The rice cake is slightly sweet with honey, and is very popular with the elderly and children.Windmills are made of paper. No one has seen this before, because paper was scarce before, and no one thought of using paper to develop toys. It is quite popular with children. Now the children in the village have a paper windmill, and they run and whirl around. Accompanied by crisp laughter, everyone's mood improved after hearing it.

During Xiao Yu's business practice, Pei Linzhi also took the time to go to Longhu Mountain to explore the way, to determine the target, and not to waste too much time in the mountain, because the longer it takes, the greater the danger.

Their plan was for Xiao Yu to shake the rattle, and Pei Linzhi to be responsible for carrying the load, but Pei Linzhi felt that this was not safe. If he encountered a large group of bandits, he was worried that he would not be able to save Xiao Yu, so he wanted to take the horse.

Xiao Yu objected: "It's strange for the two of us to appear together, and it's even more eye-catching if we bring a horse. Besides, the horse can't run on mountain roads, and it becomes a burden instead. We don't want to confront the bandits head-on Conflicts, if they do happen, they will play by ear, and they can even sneak into the bandits."

Pei Linzhi looked at his daring Highness worriedly. He really didn't know where he got so much courage. He didn't take his own safety at all.

Xiao Yu comforted him: "It will be fine, you have to trust me, if you don't go into the tiger's den, you won't catch a tiger." In fact, he is still looking forward to this adventure, which man doesn't like exciting things.

On a fine morning, Xiao Yu put on linen bunt clothes and straw sandals, and set off with a bamboo hat. He held a rattle in one hand and a spinning paper windmill in the other. Pei Linzhi, who was wearing a bamboo hat, smiled slightly: "Let's go, idiot, let's go sell." From now on, Pei Linzhi will become Xiao Yu's idiot.

Pei Linzhi picked up the burden and followed behind him. Fortunately, seeing that they were about to go out, he followed and rubbed against Xiao Yu's legs. I'll be back tonight."

The children in the family didn't know why they suddenly wanted to be shopkeepers, but they thought it was very fresh and fun. Only Ji Hai noticed that this was unusual, and reluctantly sent them to the entrance of the village: "Master, sir, when will you come back?" ?”

Xiao Yu said, "I should be able to come back tonight."

"Then where do you have lunch?"

"We brought dry food, and we can buy some food, so don't worry about us. I'm not at home, so you should study hard, go back." Xiao Yu said.

When the two of them left the village, Xiao Yu shook the rattle and began to yell: "Needles, threads, combing oil—rice cakes, windmills, rattles—"

Pei Linzhi said: "Your Majesty, take a rest and call again when you get to the village."

"Didn't I practice my voice and get some feeling? Silly brother, you can't speak casually now, and you should speak like this: okay, I got it." Xiao Yu said with his tongue out.

After speaking, he and Pei Linzhi both laughed.

The two walked in the direction of Longhu Mountain. Every time they reached a village, they started shouting. Unexpectedly, the business was quite booming. Paper windmills worth two cents were especially popular. After two villages, the paper windmills were sold out. , The two stopped and did a lot.

When it was almost noon, we finally arrived at Longhu Mountain. The number of pedestrians here was significantly reduced. Everyone tried to walk together as much as possible, walking with their heads buried, and did not dare to speak loudly.

When they reached a certain place, Pei Linzhi put down the burden to wipe off his sweat. Xiao Yu realized that when he got there, he said, "Silly brother, are you tired? Let's take a rest. I'll wipe your sweat off."

He raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat off Pei Linzhi's face.It was really hot that day, and it was too hot to walk around empty-handed. Pei Linzhi carried a load that weighed dozens of kilograms, so it would only make it hotter.

Pei Linzhi looked at Xiao Yu's hand, and did not refuse, but his ears couldn't help turning red.

A middle-aged man who was traveling with him looked back at them and said, "You two are foreigners, hurry up and rest after leaving this mountain. This place is close to the bandit's Tiger Village."

Xiao Yu said: "Oh, I see, thank you. You go first, we will follow after a rest."

Those people were afraid of bandits, so naturally they wouldn't stop for the two strangers, not to mention that they didn't leave even after reminding them, obviously they asked for it.

When those people were gone, Pei Linzhi took the load and turned to a narrow path on the left and entered the mountain.Xiao Yu followed closely behind, his heart beating a little faster. He thought it was nothing before, but when he got to the opponent's territory, he felt a little embarrassed.

The empty mountain is silent, not even a few birds chirping, only cicadas are constantly chirping.After entering the mountain, there were more trees, and it was much shaded. Along the way, you could see many wild flowers and fruits. Xiao Yu knew a lot, and occasionally there were edible fruits, but he didn’t dare to stay. Seeing the startled snake made people break out in cold sweat.

The mountain was getting steeper and steeper, and Xiao Yu was out of breath. He couldn't figure it out. Yazhou hadn't experienced any wars since ancient times. Why did the natives still go to the deep mountains? Couldn't there be more wolves in the mountains? Is it a tiger or a leopard?But perhaps it is precisely because of this that the natives choose the mountains, because there are enough prey and fruits. After all, the natives mostly live on hunting and gathering.

Pei Linzhi's physical strength was so good that he carried a load for twenty or thirty miles, which was faster than Xiao Yu walking empty-handed, and he had to slow down from time to time to wait for Xiao Yu.On the way, they stopped for something to eat, rested for a while and continued on their way. After climbing two mountains, Pei Linzhi raised his chin to signal to the foot of the mountain, and said in a low voice, "It's just ahead."

Xiao Yu took a closer look, and sure enough, he saw the buildings. It seemed that they were all made of local materials. The houses were built with wood and bamboo, and the roofs were also covered with grass and leaves.I also know that there are so many thatched roofs in the houses in Zhoucheng, and it is even more impossible to have tile roofs here.

"There is a village, silly brother, let's go down quickly." Xiao Yu became excited.

Pei Linzhi nodded and said nothing. He liked that His Highness called him Brother Stupid, and he felt an indescribable intimacy.

As he approached the stockade, Xiao Yu shook the rattle and began to yell: "Needles, threads, combing oil—rice cakes, windmills, rattles—"

They soon heard voices, and Xiao Yu became excited: "Sure enough, it is very popular. Many people here have never been out of the mountains in their entire lives. There should be very few outsiders here."

The voices of people became more and more noisy, and when they turned a corner, they saw figures, many of them, men, women and children, with ragged clothes, disheveled hair, and paint on their faces.

Xiao Yu excitedly shook the rattle again and shouted again, but his shouting only attracted some people to look around, but no one came over, Xiao Yu was stunned, could it be that he didn't understand what he said?He even learned the local dialect from Ji Hai.

Soon, he heard the woman's cry, could something have happened?Xiao Yu stopped yelling, and hurriedly walked over there. When he got closer, he realized that it was by a deep pool. A seven or eight-year-old child was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, without any clothes on his body. , a woman hugged him and cried loudly, is this drowning?

Xiao Yu squeezed into the crowd: "Let's go, let's go."

The onlookers looked at the stranger in amazement. Xiao Yu squeezed over, squatted down and stretched out his hands to check the child's breath. He was already dead, but his body was still warm. He hurriedly said to the woman, "Get out of here." ,I'll try."

He checked the child's mouth to make sure there was no foreign object, then hugged the child, put his knee against the child's stomach, gave him water, and then began to press the heart for resuscitation. After pressing for a while, he stopped and pinched his nose. He pinched his chin and opened his mouth to start artificial respiration.

Pei Linzhi, who was outside the crowd, was stunned. Is this what His Royal Highness said?

Everyone around was stunned by Xiao Yu's series of operations. What is this person doing?Everyone started whispering and talking.

But Xiao Yu didn't realize it, and still insisted on resuscitating the child.At this time, someone came over again, and the crowd became commotion again. The leader was a tattooed young man, wearing only a pair of trousers, with a bare upper body and tattoos on his body. He had dark skin and a thin figure.When Pei Lin saw it, he instinctively sensed the danger, so he hurriedly squeezed into the crowd and walked to Xiao Yu's side, ready to protect him at any time.

As soon as the man came over, people immediately moved out of the way for him. As soon as the man came in, he knelt down opposite Xiao Yu and hurriedly said, "Ju Yan, what's wrong with you? Who are you? What are you doing to him?" He raised his hand He was going to interrupt Xiao Yu's first aid.

Pei Linzhi reached out and grabbed the opponent's wrist, Xiao Yu continued to do artificial respiration, and stopped to press the heart after a while, only then did he have time to explain: "I'm saving him."

The man looked at Pei Linzhi, and realized that he couldn't break free from his hand, and then looked at Xiao Yu, who was doing some very strange movements.Some people in the crowd were already questioning Xiao Yu's actions in low voices. Their words were not too different from Ji Hai's. Xiao Yu could understand, but he ignored them and continued to rescue him: "Silly brother, let him go."

Pei Rinzhi looked at the man and let him go.

The man looked at the two of them indifferently, and did not speak again.

Xiao Yu pressed for a long time and performed artificial respiration several times, but the child remained silent.The discussion in the crowd gradually became louder, and even the weeping woman started to push Xiao Yu. If Pei Linzhi hadn't stopped him, Xiao Yu would probably have been pushed away.

Just when everyone was about to lose patience, they suddenly heard a cough coming from the child. Xiao Yu was overjoyed and breathed out: "It's done."

The child's mother wept with joy, lowered her head and kissed the child's forehead, and said something vaguely.The crowd also erupted in exclamation: "Alive, alive!"

The cold eyes of the man opposite Xiao Yu began to warm up. He bowed to Xiao Yu and saluted: "Thank you for saving my nephew. Honorable guests, my name is Ju Mo, and I am the owner of the village. Where are you from? Welcome to our village as a guest."

Xiao Yu looked at the child who had begun to open his eyes, and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "Thank you, I am not a miracle doctor, we are peddlers from outside the mountain, selling some small things, everyone can see if there is anything you need .” He tried hard to control his ecstasy, it was a godsend opportunity, and he got in touch with Jumo so easily.

"There are very few outsiders here. You came here today, and you happened to save my nephew. You are gods sent to save us. Please come to my house as a guest." Ju Mo bowed to Xiao Yu again, Then he picked up his nephew and spoke to the people behind him. Immediately, someone picked up Xiao Yu's load, surrounded Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi and walked towards the village.

Xiao Yu found that although the stockade was simple and dilapidated, it was built very scientifically. It was built on the side of a mountain, and there were two or three meter high pointed wooden piles erected on the periphery.

The stockade is not small, roughly estimated to have hundreds of households, bigger than their village.People here are very dark-skinned and wear very little clothing. Many men only wear trousers and no clothes. Women basically wear clothes and trousers, but many girls aged five or six are naked, and boys who are older are naked. There are those who are naked, probably because of the lack of cloth, which is why they are so embarrassed.

Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi were invited to Ju Mo's house - a stilted building located at the top of the village, with a rock wall behind the house.Xiao Yu was sitting in the hall, and there was a burning fire pond in the center of the hall, no one came to greet them, Ju Mo went upstairs with his nephew in his arms.

Xiao Yu then looked at the village owner's house, and could tell that the house had been built for a long time, and some places were newly replaced, because the color was completely different, so it was easy to identify.There are a lot of animal skins hanging on the wall, including a leopard skin, and many goat horns, probably a symbol of wealth or force.

The furniture and utensils in the house are similar to those outside. As the owner of the village, he is probably the person who has the most contact with the outside world. Maybe Jumo can speak official Chinese.

After Xiao Yu finished looking around, Ju Mo finally reappeared: "Just now I asked the priest to show my nephew, he is fine. Thanks to the genius doctor for saving my brother's only son." He knelt down on one knee and looked at Xiao Yu Yu made a salute.

Xiao Yu quickly waved his hand: "You are welcome, the village master. I can do this with little effort. And I am really not a doctor, I am just a shopkeeper. My name is Xiao Yu, and this is my elder brother. The children are almost the same, but they are very protective of me, please forgive me for offending the village master before." Xiao Yu introduced Pei Linzhi to Ju Mo.

Ju Mo looked at Pei Linzhi and nodded: "It's okay, I don't mind. Your brother must be a natural talent."

"Yes, he is very strong." Xiao Yu said.

Ju Mo looked at the load on the side, got up and went over to have a look, and picked up the paper pinwheel stuck around the load: "What is this?"

Xiao Yu got up, picked up a windmill, and waved it vigorously. The windmill whirled and turned: "Paper pinwheels, children's toys. They can turn when there is wind. Give one to your little nephew to play with." Pass the windmill in his hand to Jumo.

Ju Mo put down the windmill in his hand, took the one handed by Xiao Yu, and twisted the leaves of the windmill with his fingers: "Is this paper?"

Xiao Yu said: "Yes. What else does the village master need? I have a lot of things here. You can take a look." He opened the wooden box on top of the basket, and inside were needles, thread balls, hair oil, silk flowers, plasters, etc. Wait, move the box, there are scissors, axes and other daily necessities in the basket below.

Ju Mo picked up an ax and asked, "How do I change this?"

Xiao Yu said, "This ax needs eighty wen."

Ju Mo put down his axe: "I don't have your money, only leather and medicinal materials."

Money is not in circulation here, so we can only barter, Xiao Yu said: "That's fine, let me see what I need."

Ju Mo pointed to a leather wall and said to Xiao Yu, "See which one you need."

Xiao Yu felt that the leopard skin was good, and it could be used as a quilt for a child when it was cold, so he pointed to the leopard skin and said, "Is that okay?"

Ju Mo shook his head: "I don't want to change this leather, but I can do anything else. Two sheepskins are exchanged for an axe."

Xiao Yu nodded: "Yes." He didn't really come to do business, he just wanted to play his role more realistically, now that he has come into direct contact with Ju Mo, he has to find a way to stay and win his favor Trust is all it takes: "Master, I brought a lot of things here. It's not easy to come here. I want to change some things back home. Do other people in the village need them?"

Ju Mo said: "You are my distinguished guest, just stay in my house, and you can exchange things with the people in the village."

Xiao Yu hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks: "Then thank the village master."

Not long after, the mother of the drowned child brought some fruits and processed raw meat. Ju Mo said: "The guest has come from afar, and he must be hungry too. Let's eat something to satisfy his hunger." Use it to cut up the meat.

Raw?Although Xiao Yu also knew about sashimi, and people in some places eat raw meat, but now that someone directly served raw meat to him, he couldn't bear it: "Thank you." Then he took a fruit and handed it to Pei Linzhi took another one for himself.

Ju Mo put the cut meat in front of Xiao Yu: "This is venison, and only the most distinguished guests can enjoy it."

Xiao Yu's scalp was a little numb, and he didn't want to eat meat at first, but after being told so, he had no choice but to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth. At the first bite, he couldn't tell what the taste was, but after chewing, it was still a bit sweet, not so bad. , so he swallowed it whole, but there were so many parasites in the raw meat, he didn't dare to eat more, so he said, "Thank you."

Ju Mo ate the meat calmly, obviously thinking it was delicious.While eating, someone came to look for Ju Mo: "Master, the Great Elder has come to look for me again."

Ju Mo stopped the knife, glanced at Xiao Yu, and said, "It's about Tiger Village again?"

The visitor looked at Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi, not daring to speak.

Ju Mo said: "But it doesn't matter, this is Yan'er's savior. Benefactor, this is our priest."

Xiao Yu hurriedly greeted the other party: "Hello, Priest."

The priest nodded to him and said to Jumo, "They want the soul-killing grass again."

Ju Mo frowned: "What did they bring in exchange this time?"

Xiao Yu remained calm, it was a coincidence to come this time.
