I Have A Seal Of Two Realms
Chapter 159: Follow The Escort Team
"Wow! It's a pearl!"
"What I have here is a white jade paperweight."
"Master, the gift Heshen Mansion gave me in return was a golden hairpin. It's so beautiful!"
Some people took the gifts back to their houses to check them out, while others opened them in the lobby of the passenger station to show off.
"Wow--"
Suddenly, there was an exclamation.
What Wang Changxiong held in his hand was a bead that shone with a misty blue light, and it turned out to be a water-repelling bead.
It wasn't that Wang Changxiong wanted to show off, but that all the brothers in the escort agency were very curious. He didn't expect that Heshen Mansion actually gave him a water-proofing bead, so he accidentally revealed his wealth.
"What a water-repelling bead!" Huang Qing was also extremely surprised, "The Lushui River God is so generous."
Although there seem to be a lot of water-repelling beads hanging on the Lushui River God's Mansion, which may seem worthless, in fact, this thing is quite rare. Only shellfish monsters that have practiced for many years can produce it, and it will also consume their own Taoist strength. Nobles in the water are extremely difficult to harvest.
That is to say, the Lushui River God's Mansion has a long heritage and has a lot of inventory in the house, so it can be given away.
When Lu Zheng pushed out the door with his luggage, he saw everyone in the bodyguard bureau marveling at his head bodyguard, and many guests from the inn also gathered around.
"Mr. Wang, head escort!"
"Master Lu, wait a moment. We will pack up soon. The boat will be here soon. Let's set off together."
"Okay, I'm not in a hurry."
They had made an appointment to go together at the banquet in Shuifu last night, and Lu Zheng happened to be on the boat as well.
Wang Changxiong sent his crew members to pack up the carriages and horses, and pack their luggage. Then the innkeeper prepared porridge and steamed buns for everyone as breakfast.
The return gift last night was worth far more than the gift they gave, so the innkeeper was extremely generous and offered breakfast for free!
…
"Alas -" A scholar couldn't help but sigh while drinking porridge and eating steamed buns.
"I can't believe that all the bad luck has come to Yushan. When will it be my turn!" Another scholar sighed while eating the steamed bun in his hand with disgust.
"Perhaps it was because he was so unlucky before that he was able to turn around?"
"If I could marry the daughter of the River God, I would be willing to suffer ten years of misfortune."
"We still need to get married."
"When you marry into a wife, you marry into a married woman. That's the Lushui River God's Mansion. Besides, if you give birth to a second son, you can also take the family's surname."
The innkeeper couldn't help but ask, "You always say that the groom is so unlucky, how can he be so unlucky?"
When this topic was mentioned, several scholars became happy again.
"Zhu Yushan lost his parents when he was young, and he only relied on the rent of a few acres of thin farmland at home. Speaking of it, he is actually quite talented in literature. He has dabbled in the classics and history. If he is lucky, he may have a good chance of winning the Qiu Wei, but until this year he has not He’s almost thirty, but he doesn’t even have the reputation of being a scholar.”
“In my first state exam, I was hit on the head by a pole that fell from upstairs. My head was bleeding and I had to seek medical treatment.
During the second state examination, I met a man who was ill again on the road. He helped take the man to the hospital, but he was too late.
The third time I got cold the day before the exam and I couldn't get out of bed on the day of the exam.
The fourth time was when he encountered a fight between two vendors on the way to the exam. He was injured, pens, ink, paper and inkstones were scattered, and he was also splashed with water.
the fifth time……
the sixth time……"
After twelve years and twelve exams, Zhu Yushan never even took one exam!
GuNot to mention that the innkeeper was stunned when he heard this, even Lu Zheng secretly smacked his lips. Think about it, if someone in modern times took the college entrance examination in this way every year, would they go crazy?
Fortunately, he was able to work hard twelve times in a row. He is a ruthless person!
No wonder it got the nickname "bad luck like rain". For scholars, if you can't even take the exam, it's bad luck like rain. In this case, the roof is leaking, okay?
"How could you say that such an unlucky person could win the favor of the daughter of the River God?"
"I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out!"
"well--"
The mood of several scholars was depressed again...
…
"The ship is coming!"
With a shout, the ferry became busy again.
Lu Zheng led the horse and came to the ferry terminal with the people from the escort agency.
The Xiongfeng Escort Bureau had a total of five carriages and rented a large boat. There was a lot of free space. With the addition of Lu Zheng and one horse, there was no obstacle.
On the bow of the boat, Wang Changxiong and Lu Zheng stood facing the wind. Wang Changxiong played with the water-proof beads in his hands, "I didn't expect that the groom was so unlucky. Once he got lucky, he got both wealth and wealth."
Even Wang Changxiong is a little envious of this kind of luck.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I can't say that his last one or two bad lucks were related to the daughter of the Shui Mansion."
"Huh?" Wang Changxiong's eyes flashed and he nodded clearly, "It is indeed possible."
…
The journey across the river was calm and the boat sailed smoothly. We reached the other side in less than half an hour, but it took a long time to get off the boat and unload the cargo.
After repairing at the ferry for a while, the group set off again, with Huang Qing leading the way. Wang Changxiong and Lu Zheng rode in the middle of the group. Lu Zheng asked for advice on Jianghu matters, and the two also chatted about strange things happening in various places.
Only then did Lu Zheng realize that Wang Changxiong's Xiongfeng Escort Bureau was not Yizhou Escort Bureau, but came from Yuzhou, which was further away.
"That's far enough."
"This is what we eat." Wang Changxiong said with a smile, "But I basically only walk on Lingbei Road and Yinan Road, but I have never been to other roads."
Lu Zheng nodded. Yuzhou also belonged to Lingbei Road, while Yangzhou was on Yinan Road. They were both located south of the central part of Da Jing Dynasty.
"I see that Mr. Lu is quite interested in life in the world. Why haven't you met a escort before?" Wang Changxiong asked.
"There should be, but I rarely go out of the city and don't wander around much, so I haven't encountered them that often." Lu Zheng said.
Wang Changxiong nodded. At first glance, Lu Zheng was a young master who came from a wealthy family. What was rare was that he was a monastic genius. It was normal not to go out.
"Jianghu is not a good bowl of rice. It looks cool, but in fact there are many dangers. There are just bandits and bandits. There are not many Martial Artists. What I am afraid of is encountering those who are prepared. In addition, ghosts from the underworld and lawless monsters , heretics, if you encounter one, you can kill someone, so we only follow the official and familiar paths to be safe."
Lu Zheng nodded and accepted the instruction. Wang Changxiong was speaking from experience.
"Mr. Wang, the bodyguard, is really well-informed." Lu Zheng praised.
"Mr. Lu, you're welcome. Some of them I met, and some of them were written down after hearing what others said." Wang Changxiong smiled and said, "As a dart, safety comes first."
"Indeed."
At this time, the convoy had already left the ferry far away, and the official road had disappeared. It was walking in a sparse forest with no people in front or behind.
Suddenly, a scream sounded, from weak to strong, from far to near. The bodies of the dozen or so coachmen and waiters in the escort office froze, and all of them had expressions of pain on their faces.
