Fantasy: Starting From Being In A Desperate Situation And Running Around As Escorts

Entering the boundary of Jiangzhou, the number of people on the official road gradually increased.

Zhang San looked at the sun and smelled the sour smell on his body.

It looked like excrement that had been marinated in a sauerkraut jar for a long time.

I thought that when I got to the inn, I would take a good shower.

Here, the weather is getting warmer.

Li Changshou had taken off his clothes and was only wearing a single piece of clothing.

Zhang San was wiping away the sweat that had fallen from his eyes. His waist was wrapped in bulging clothes that he refused to take off.

“I’m from the south, and the climate at home is hotter, but I’m used to living in the north, and it’s bitterly cold in the frontier.

The weather is a little warmer, I’m really not used to it..."

"Do you have a guide?" Li Changshou asked.

"Of course there is."

Zhang San took out a yellowed road guide from his arms.

"This road guide was given to us by the Tang Dynasty Military Headquarters when I was eighteen years old.

There were a total of 318 road signs and 318 compatriots. Unfortunately, I was the only one who survived. "

The two men and two horses entered Jiangzhou smoothly.

After entering Jiangzhou, we went straight to Ningjiang City.

Little Fatty Xia Hourong is in Ningjiang City, and I don’t know what is happening to him now.

This time I went to look for him, and it turned out that he was one of the main ingredients for medicinal baths.

The refined long-legged centipede has been used up.

At that time, Xia Hourong was mainly responsible for refining this kind of centipede.

Later, Li Changshou himself tried several times, but the results were not satisfactory.

I just took this opportunity to ask Xia Hourong again.

Secondly, the Xiahou family is quite powerful in Ningjiang City.

There are a lot of water bandits these days, and some boatmen are even water bandits.

To pull someone into the middle of the water is to ask for money.

If no money is given, the boatman jumps into the river and leaves.

Everyone was left looking at each other.

So if you want to take a boat to go south, you need to find a reliable boat operator.

It is undoubtedly the most convenient to ask Xia Hourong for help.

Before dark, we arrived at Ningjiang City.

Xiahou family.

As soon as Fang knocked on the door, he saw a young girl wearing green satin clothes with a delicate appearance sticking her head out.

A pair of beautiful eyes turned around, smelling their scent, and frowned slightly.

"Who are you looking for?"

Li Changshou smiled lightly and said, "This girl is so polite. Is Xia Hourong at home?"

"Do you know our young master?"

"Yes, please let me know, girl."

The little girl retracted her head.

Zhang San chuckled, "This girl from the water town looks fair."

After saying that, he said something worried.

"Is this person reliable?"

"reliable."

After a moment, rapid footsteps suddenly sounded.

"Senior Brother Li! Senior Brother Li!"

"Senior Brother Li came to me, how could I let him wait outside!"

"...."

With a "pop", the door was knocked open.

Xia Hourong's chubby cheeks came into view.

"Senior Brother Li!!"

After a while, Li Changshou and Zhang San followed Xia Hourong into Xiahou Mansion.

There are dozens of large tile-roofed houses, gate towers with hanging flowers, and hand-painted verandahs.

The courtyard is connected by corridors, decorated with rocks, carved jade railings, green walls and red tiles, showing its rich and noble style.

The courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious.

After entering the inner house, tea, cakes, and fruit plates were brought out one by one.

Zhang San looked dumbfounded, wondering how Li Changshou could recognize such a family if he was so poor.

Xia Hourong's belly had lost a lot of weight because he was in the Taoist temple.

Now, after returning home, I quickly gained a lot of weight and my face was plump.

"Senior brother, my mother went out of town. Last time she even asked me to come to the door to say thank you in person."

Li Changshou explained the purpose of his visit to Xia Hourong, and they only chatted for a few words.

The maids and servants were busy adding wine and serving dishes, Jiangzhou's unique local soju.

The exquisite porcelain plates were filled with dishes.

Braised shark's fin, roasted deer tendon, poached tenderloin, cherry meat, hundreds of birds facing the phoenix...

Zhang San swallowed a mouthful of saliva,

Li Changshou was talking to Xia Hourong, but he couldn't get on with each other, so he tore off a fragrant deer leg without ceremony.

Pour yourself another large glass of wine.

A mouthful of wine and a bite of chicken, and we ate it happily.

Xia Hourong said: "It's easy to say, I have the long-legged centipede in my drugstore, I can just have someone deliver it to me.

After refining it last time, I found that the refined long-legged centipede could be used as medicine, so I prepared a lot of it in the medicine shop..."

Li Changshou and Xia Hourong chatted until the sun went down.

Zhang San had eaten and drank enough early and fell asleep leaning on the back of the chair.

Xia Hourong had two large rooms tidied up for Li Changshou and Zhang San to live in.

.......

"Wow~"

Li Changshou looked at the dark potion in the bathtub and smelled the familiar smell of medicinal bath.

Zhang San had already washed himself and went to bed.

Li Changshou needed enough time to prepare for the medicinal bath. He took off his clothes and jumped into the tub.

At this time, a pretty girl walked in outside.

"Master Li, how can you wash yourself alone? I will rub your back for you."

"...Need not."

The girl smiled slightly and opened the curtain without hesitation and walked in.

"Master Li, there is no need to be polite to the slave family. Since he is the benefactor of my Young Master, he is also the benefactor of the slave family."

Li Changshou said: "It's really not necessary. It's so late. Girl, you should go back to sleep."

The girl's white and tender fingers had touched Li Changshou's back, and she said delicately: "Hey, Mr. Li doesn't have to be so outspoken..."

Li Changshou exhaled and felt the needle-pricking sensation of the potion on his skin.

"Girl, you'd better go back to sleep."

The girl saw clearly the various scars on his back, her heartbeat seemed to slow down by half a beat, and she subconsciously took a half step back.

The eyes he looked at the other party changed, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"....Then I will go back to sleep. Mr. Li will rest early."

Li Changshou closed his eyes again, and the girl's muttering came from outside the door.

“Each of these two people is weirder than the other, and the old man is even more shy than the older girl when he takes off his clothes.

One seems to not like women..."

Li Changshou shook his head helplessly and did not explain much.

Early next morning

There were chaotic footsteps outside, followed closely by human voices.

"Hurry and report to the official, Young Master."

"Reporter...is this okay?" Xia Hourong rolled his eyes, "Senior Brother Li, are you up?"

Li Changshou walked out and found out after asking.

It turned out that Xia Hourong's mother was kidnapped, and the thieves sent a blackmail letter.

The old lady has always been in charge of the Xiahou family, and she goes out to handle the accounting matters.

He brought along the housekeeper and a group of people who were in charge of the house.

Xia Hourong was left behind, along with a bunch of servants who were looking at each other with big eyes and little eyes, and they were confused and without a master.

Fortunately, Xia Hourong remembered Senior Brother Li who came to his door at the critical moment.

Li Changshou looked at the blackmail letter. It was a regular blackmail letter from a thief.

Accompanying him was the negotiator among the thieves.

Huajianzi, the liaison officer among thieves.

Every place has its own name.

In short, these thieves are eloquent and use various tricks to intimidate the family members of the victims to pay the ransom.
