Lanke Chess Edge

Chapter 144 One Armed Hero

The full moon wine for the young master of the Wei family is not about martial arts contests or so on. Apart from presents and congratulations, there are naturally no extra programs, and even a baby can’t show up in cold weather, so most people who have finished lunch and dinner They all said goodbye.

Of course, if someone wants to have fun in Desheng Mansion, the Wei family will be responsible for all expenses, no matter if it is a restaurant, teahouse or brothel. Even the best shops in the city, except for the gambling house and brothel, are actually quite a part of the Wei family. industry.

Du Heng and his two brothers came out of the inn arranged by the Wei family in the early morning of the second day, and were going to lead the horses in the stables, but unexpectedly there was a groom waiting for them.

Seeing Du Heng with the broken arm leading the people out from the back door of the inn, the skinny groom wrapped in a thick padded jacket suddenly opened his eyes and rushed out of the stable.

"This is Hero Du, right?"

Du Heng was a little surprised. Usually, they would pre-store the sign in the inn for the groom to bring the horses for the three of them, but the other party should not know him, right?

The groom rubbed his hands and let out a sigh, and quickly reached out to lead to the stable on the right.

"You must be right. The owner of the house has ordered before that the horses you came with were accidentally led by the wrong person, and you specially compensated a few more horses. There is still a carriage over there. If you want to go to Desheng Mansion I can also drive you to some of the counties and towns, and the carriage is comfortable in this cold weather!"

In the stable on the right, there are three burgundy horses. Judging from their shiny hair without mottled color, their agile eyes, their well-proportioned muscles and tall physique, they are definitely three good horses, at least definitely better than the Du family's previous ones. Those three horses were much better.

"Hey, Du Shaoxia, these three rouge horses are paid to you by the owner. They have good stamina and are quick to exert their strength. Their temper is docile to the owner, and they can kick a wolf to death with one kick against wild beasts. They just eat too much."

The groom rubbed his hands and pointed to the carriage next to him.

"The interior of this carriage is covered with fur, and there is a heater. It is comfortable and warm to sit on. It will not be tiring at all after traveling for two or three hundred miles. Hehe, Du Shaoxia, do you want me to drive the carriage for you?"

Du Heng frowned and looked at this shrewd groom. He suddenly realized that although he was short and short and his fingers were red from the cold, his knuckles were thick and his hands were hooked like claws. He was obviously a good martial artist.

"Patriarch Wei knows where I'm going?"

"Hey, look at what you said, how could Patriarch Wei know this, I just think you might be useful!"

The two Du family children behind Du Heng had already looked at the rouge horses with their eyes shining.

Just like how men in Ji Yuan's previous life loved cars, there is no man here, especially the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, who doesn't like horses, especially such good horses as Rouge.

"Thank you Patriarch Wei for your kindness. Let's ride horses instead of a carriage!"

Du Heng was really not used to having such an outsider driving a cart for them. Looking at the appearance of the two clan brothers behind him, they probably couldn't wait to ride a horse.

"Hey, okay, I'll put the saddle on for you..."

After everything was done, the three rouge horses had been led out of the stables, and Du Heng and the others were about to get on the horses and leave. At this moment, the groom rubbed his hands again and spoke with a smile, his expression very much like his master Wei Wuwei.

"Hehe, Du Shaoxia, the Patriarch also mentioned a little bit, saying that if you are going to Ning'an County..."

Du Heng's eyes froze, this guy really knew.

As if he didn't see Du Heng's eyes, the groom talked to himself.

"Well, the owner said, the jujube tree in Mr.'s courtyard has some red fruits hanging this year, and it still doesn't fall. The young man who looks at the garden neither picks nor sells... As Mr. Du Shaoxia's old acquaintance, I think the young man will send some Pills for you, hehe... The head of the family said that the Wei family is willing to pay a lot of money to buy a few pills from you."

Buy dates?

Du Heng was even more surprised. With the financial resources of the Wei family, it is impossible to get jujubes if they want to eat. Is there anything special about the jujube trees in Mr. Ji's courtyard?

"We'll talk about this matter when Du comes back. Let's say goodbye first. Thank Patriarch Wei for me!"

When Du Heng left, the two Du family members beside him saluted on his behalf, and the groom quickly returned the salute.

Then the three sons of the Du family galloped out of the back of the inn.

The rouge horse is indeed a good horse, fast and obedient, and the feeling of galloping makes the three Du family members extremely happy, especially after leaving the city without worrying about pedestrians, there is a feeling of galloping like lightning.

It's just that this kind of enjoyment quickly faded after it lasted for less than half an hour, and was taken away by the cold wind blowing towards my face.

The faster the horse ran, the faster the body would lose temperature. Even with martial arts, the three of them would still be freezing, especially since the temperature in Jizhou has been lower these two days.

Deshengfu City is about 150 miles away from Ning'an County in a straight line, but the road winds and turns and walks for nearly 300 miles. Along the way, they either stay in residential houses or stay in inns, and they arrive in Ning'an on the third day. Ann County.

"Hey... If I knew it... I would just take that carriage..."

One of the Du family members was sitting on the horse's back, clutching the reins and rubbing their hands, the white gas from the nose of the healthy horse below him was more than a foot long.

"Okay, don't complain. When I go back, I will have the cheek to ask Wei Patriarch to borrow a copper pot. Let's eat that hot pot again."

"Hey, brother Heng, you said that!"

"Yes, don't go back on your word!"

The three of them led the tall horses into Ning'an County, which also attracted the attention of some people in the county. Not many outsiders came to Ning'an County during this season.

After a little inquiring, I learned about Mr. Ji's residence. After all, only Lu Chengfeng had been to the small pavilion at the time, and the others only knew the name and approximate location.

The villagers are enthusiastic, but they just lead the way and don't take Du Heng's money. When they reached the small pavilion in the deep part of Tianniufang, this enthusiastic man pointed to the place where the branches and leaves were still green with a little bit of bright red. road.

"That's Ju'an Xiaoge. Mr. Ji used to live there. Go there by yourself."

After Du Heng and the others thanked them, they led the horse towards the courtyard.

When I came here before, I heard the man say that this jujube tree is strange. Now that it is freezing, the tree is full of emerald green, and the sporadic red spots between the veins are as gorgeous as red flowers. It is hard to imagine that this is the scene of severe winter.

The courtyard door is open, and the back door of the courtyard is also open. Through the back door, you can see the open space behind the courtyard. A young man is setting up a shelf to dry quilts. There are quilts left by Mr. Ji and the Yin family’s own quilts. It's Yin Qing.

Yin Qing, who heard the sound of horseshoes and footsteps, also turned his head to look outside the front courtyard door, and found three strangers, especially the empty sleeve of Du Heng's broken arm, which made him stunned for a moment, and seeing that they were all armed with knives, it should be Jiang Hu. people.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Du Heng quickly answered.

"I'm Du Heng, Mr. Ji's old acquaintance, I'm passing by Ning'an County, so I came to pay a visit."

"Du Heng?"

Yin Qing looked at it, combined with the severed hand, and suddenly thought of something.

"Ah! I remembered, you are a tiger-fighting hero, Mr. Ji mentioned you! Come in, come in!"

Du Heng's broken arm was so recognizable, Yin Qing put down what he was doing and ran from the wasteland in the backyard to the small courtyard in front, welcoming the three of them into the yard, and was also very curious about the three rouge horses.

Quickly took out a few more cups from the small cabinet kitchen, and poured water from the kettle that was already on the stone table.

"Drink water, the water is still hot, and the tea leaves are gone. It's unfortunate that you came here. My husband hasn't come back since he went out. When he was away, our family helped him look after the yard. Now my father is also rushing to take the exam. , as far as I can see, there were a lot of jujubes in the yard a few months earlier, but now there are fewer..."

Yin Qing chattered with Du Heng with excitement, and then asked how the nine men beat the tiger back then.

In fact, the so-called tiger fighting process was completely abused by the tiger demon. Du Heng couldn't say anything at all, he could only talk about the preparations and the simple fighting process, and then used a siege to prevaricate, but Yin Qing still listened with gusto.

After Du Heng finished speaking, he took advantage of the opportunity to ask Yin Qing about Ji Yuan's situation. The villagers who led the way also said that Mr. Ji is a strange person, but it is more appropriate to ask Yin's family about the real situation.

Except for the matter of ghosts and gods and Mr. Wei Wuwei who was told not to talk about looking at jade, other Yin Qing talks about it with enthusiasm, from rescuing the fox and letting the fox to seeing him dance swords and flowers and leaves like a dragon, and he also talked about traveling far to send him off, jujube The miracle of a tree ripening overnight.

Even Du Heng was amazed when he heard this, but the two younger brothers from the Du family didn't believe it after hearing it, feeling like children were bragging.

However, Yin Qing didn't notice the curled lips of the two Du family children, and instead became more and more excited as they talked.

"That's right! Just wait, I'll go home, I have something to show you!"

While Yin Qing was talking, he ran out of the courtyard and went home, leaving the three of them staring at each other in the courtyard.

"The jujube is as red as fire. I don't know how it tastes. Brother Heng, let's pick two and try it?"

"Don't move!"

Du Heng glared at his clan brother.

After a while, Yin Qing ran back excitedly with a book.

"I'm back~"

Yin Qing entered the courtyard and put the book on the stone table with a little panting. Because his hands were dry and he couldn't turn the pages, he licked some saliva and turned the pages until he reached the middle part.

"Hey, this is written by myself. I sometimes write down some interesting things that Mr. Ji said in fear of forgetting."

Yin Qing turned to this page, and there were Du Heng's name and a brief introduction on it, as well as some unknown people and things, but the handwriting was very neat at such a young age.

"Hey, look, Mr. Ji only told me about two one-armed heroes, one is you, and the other is Yang Guo!"

"Yang Guo? Who is this?"

"You don't know that, um, he's not from my Dazheng, or not from this era, he should be an ancient man, don't care who he is, anyway, he is very powerful, even Mr. Ji said he is very powerful !"

Yin Qing flipped through the book and showed Du Heng some incomplete contents of his own description.

He lived under someone else's fence since he was a child, was bullied, looked down upon, had his arm cut off by his uncle's child, fled alone, was poisoned by a strange poison and was humiliated...

The content in the middle made the scalps of Du Heng and the two brothers feel numb. This person is not dead yet, and he still has the desire to fight?

Later, he practiced hard for decades with the eagle as his friend, and what is even more rare is that he is always open-minded, and his martial arts is superb without losing his chivalrous heart. He is known as Yang Guo, the hero of the eagle.

Considering that Yin was young when he was young, Ji Yuan harmonized the love of some adults when he told this story, so it highlights Yang Guo's martial arts journey and the righteousness of the world.

"There was such a person? Couldn't Mr. Ji make it up?"

Yin Qing was very unhappy when he heard what this Du family boy said.

"Edit? Do you think Mr. Ji is a storyteller? Mr. Ji's stories still need to be edited? If you know that he is connected to cities..."

Speaking of this, Yin Qing immediately covered her mouth, and almost missed it.

"Anyway, it must be true, believe it or not!"

Speaking of this, Yin Qing excitedly said to Du Heng again.

"Hero Du, Mr. Ji told me these two one-armed heroes in total. The first one is so powerful, you are the second one!"

The sentence "You are the second" made Du Heng stunned for a while, then he was dumbfounded and couldn't help but laugh, a little dumbfounded.

"By the way, since Hero Du is here, I'll pick some of these jujubes for you. The jujube tree will definitely agree, and I can try something else hahahaha!"

Yin Qing became excited again, and ran under the jujube tree excitedly.

Jujube agrees?

This was another sentence that puzzled Du Heng and others, but Du Heng and the two Du family disciples didn't think about it, they just watched Yin Qing climb up the tree vigorously and vigorously.
