Zen Strange Records

Chapter 128

According to what Wu Qingyan said, Qixia Valley is still a long way from here, and with the distance of the two of them, it may take nearly half a month to arrive.

All the way through the wilderness, from time to time, you can see broken black panthers lying on the side of the road. Ye Xiaosan stepped forward to check, but found that almost all of these panthers were pierced through their bodies by a blow from a long stick-like utensil. It was scrapped, the girl took a closer look, and said with a firm expression: "This is Lei Qi's shocking word, but judging from the scattered situation of the black panther, he should have left the wasteland. If it is not bad, he should We have already joined Liu Shuangshuang and headed to Qixia Valley, we must pay attention along the way and don't run into them."

Ye Xiaosan nodded when he heard the words, but he didn't know how Sima Yao and Zuo Chongying, the two backers, would live or die, but since the two had left the wasteland, they were much safer in a short time.

Knowing this, Ye Xiaosan and Wu Qingyan gradually speeded up, and soon, within three days, the two of them walked out of the wilderness and came to a pass not far away.

Looking at the majestic city wall soaring into the sky, the girl softly introduced to Ye Xiaosan: "This place is called Datongguan, and it is an important pass for the imperial court here. However, with the weakening of the imperial court in recent years, this place has become a The famous three-way zone is a mixed bag of forces from all sides, so be careful when you enter."

"Don't worry, I've been prepared for a long time." Ye Xiaosan put on the wig that didn't play much role, took the girl's arm, and walked into the pass pretending to be a young couple.

It is said to be a pass, but in fact there are not many fights between this place and other cities, but because it is in the border area, the population of various ethnic groups lives together. The whole city is full of all kinds of strange people and things, and it is extremely prosperous. In the commotion, only the girl's beautiful features received some extra attention.

"Hi, may I ask if you have ever seen a woman carrying a big box?" While walking, Ye Xiaosan asked the passers-by beside him. Since Ai Cao set off to chase the robbers, she has not heard from her again. , Ye Xiaosan was somewhat worried, but unfortunately, no matter how many people he asked, he always got the same answer.

Wu Qingyan saw all this from the side, and suddenly asked, "Is that woman carrying the box your companion?"

"Well, be it." Ye Xiaosan did not dare to say that his female companion was not the only one, so he responded vaguely. After many inquiries to no avail, the two came to an inn beside them. As soon as they entered the inn, they were attracted by a fierce quarrel.

"That's unreasonable. I have a lot of money, why don't you let me eat here!" A voice that was familiar to Ye Xiaosan yelled and rushed towards the owner of the inn.

The innkeeper was about 40 years old, with a mustache and a shrewd face. He flicked the dust on his shoulders disdainfully, as if he was afraid that the other party's filth would contaminate him: "Sorry, guest, our shop It is clearly written on the sign, beggars and dogs are not allowed to enter, rich? Huh, who knows if you stole it, hurry up if you are sensible, who doesn't know the reputation of our Longxin Inn, if you delay our business, be careful! Report to the officer!"

"You" yes, the person who spoke is a standard beggar, wearing a tattered patchwork suit, with a bamboo pole and a broken bowl for begging, it is almost impossible for Ye Xiaosan to find someone who is more like a beggar than him Worst of all, this person was actually an acquaintance of his.

"You know him?" Noticing Ye Xiaosan's expression, Wu Qingyan blinked with some doubts, after all, monks and beggars don't seem to have any intersection at all.

"Although I don't want to admit it, that's all." With a wry smile, Ye Xiaosan stepped forward and patted the beggar on the shoulder. The beggar looked back and was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of surprise: "Isn't this a good brother? He's so tall. My hairy brother almost didn’t recognize it.”

That's right, this beggar is none other than Erdan Wu. Ye Xiaosan smiled awkwardly. At the beginning, it was just nonsense after drinking, but he didn't expect to have a brother inexplicably. Before he could speak, Erdan Wu waved his hand : "Don't be in a hurry, wait for my brother, I will teach you a lesson for this dog who looks down on people!"

"Oh, you are a beggar and you are making trouble unreasonably?" The shopkeeper was not afraid of Wu Erdan at all and raised his hand to challenge him. At this moment, a small white hand stretched out from behind and threw a token to him. the shopkeeper.

When the shopkeeper saw it, he couldn't help but tremble, and looked at the owner of the little hand in fear, it was Wu Qingyan: "This... this lord, I don't know what to order."

The girl frowned. This movement obviously attracted the attention of the surrounding guests, so she took the token in one hand and said in a low voice: "This is my friend, prepare a quiet private room for us."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded his head in a hurry, without saying a word, he led the three of them up to a private room on the second floor, and then retreated respectfully, not even daring to raise their heads. .

The two brothers Ye Xiaosan and Wu Erdan stared at the scene in front of them dumbfounded. After a while, Wu Erdan elbowed Ye Xiaosan: "This, this is a brother and sister?"

"Cough, almost." Ye Xiaosan responded cheekily, and immediately received envious eyes from the former. Taking advantage of Wu Erdan's time to order, Ye Xiaosan quietly approached and asked in a low voice: "What is this?" The situation, does the shopkeeper recognize you?"

"Our Tianxin Sect is quite powerful here, and the shopkeeper just doesn't dare to offend Tianxin Sect." Wu Qingyan said lightly, then frowned slightly, and said worriedly: "But this time it will be easy to expose , we can't stay here for too long."

Ye Xiaosan naturally understands this truth, nodded, and turned to look at Wu Erdan: "Why did Brother Wu come here? Also, since you have money, why don't you just change into clean clothes? Why bother?" Argue with people."

"Tsk, you're still a beggar if you change into clean clothes. I, Erdan Wu, is the leader of the gang of beggars, so naturally I have to lead by example." Erdan Wu patted the table vigorously, talking about spittle splashing and beaming with joy.

Ye Xiaosan couldn't understand this kind of inexplicable sense of pride, so he simply ignored it and waited for his next words. After a while, it seemed that he was tired from blowing, so Erdan Wu calmed down and continued: "The last time our brother Didn't the two of you go to prison? Later, when I woke up, I found that my younger brother was missing (Ye Xiaosan: cough cough), but I ran into an expert outsider, who was fascinated by my once-in-a-thousand-year roots. Shocked, shamelessly wanted to accept me as an apprentice, there is no way, in order not to disappoint him, I reluctantly agreed, and now I am ordered by my master to go to Dingning City to find a senior named Yin Xian."

Unexpectedly, this Wu Erdan has had so many adventures since they parted. Ye Xiaosan said with emotion, and then suddenly remembered that Dingning City seems to be not far from here, which is the same route as the two of them, so he sent out an invitation immediately: " Brother Ang, why not go with us, we just happen to pass through Dingning City."
