Master Luo Cao

It is the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather is clear and the trees are green.

A dozen or so figures were hiding in the tall grass, looking out through the gap, and one of them suddenly shouted excitedly: "Here we come, we come! The sheep are coming!"

Immediately someone yelled: "Shut up! Don't shout nonsense, it will spoil the boss's plan!"

A group of people fell silent suddenly, but their eyes burst into light, like a group of hunting lions, staring fiercely at the road ahead.

On the road, there was a green cloth sedan chair swinging unsteadily.

Fu Yunshu sat in the sedan chair, holding the book in his hand, but his eyes were dazed and unfocused, completely missing the paper. After staying there for a long time, he finally couldn't help yawning, and raised his hand to cover his face with the book.He was about to close his eyes and take a nap, but the sedan chair shook violently, and the book fell from his face. Fu Yunshu lost all sleep at once, and before he could ask the porter what happened, he heard a rough voice from outside, "Now I planted the tree, and opened the road, if you want to live from now on, uh...hehe, keep that beautiful girl in your sedan chair!"

This line sounds really familiar.

Fu Yunshu groaned in his heart. He had heard about the rampant banditry in Jiuhe County for a long time before he became an official. When he took office, he already had a narrow encounter with the bandits.

The two bearers were not slaves of the Fu family, but were temporarily hired by the magistrate of the new county. When they saw a dozen tall and strong men jumping out of the grass, all of them were as mighty and majestic as iron towers, they were scared out of their wits without any hesitation. Immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, all he yelled was that he has an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child who has no money and no salary, and hopes that the elders will let him go.

One of the iron towers walked over with a nine-ringed gold-backed machete on its shoulders, kicked the two bearers far away with both feet, and said cursingly: "Go away! Who cares about you two poor peasants!" The two sedan chairmen Although the husband was kicked to the ground, he got up on his hands and feet and fled like a pardon.

The iron tower turned around, looked at his companions, swallowed, grinned with all his might and raised a wretched smile, slowly stretched his hands towards the green cloth sedan chair curtain, and said, "Little beauty, don't be afraid, stay here!" Let me love and love you, uncle..."

Before the words were finished, the car curtain was "swiped" by the other hand. Fu Yunshu squinted at the iron tower with a pair of cold eyes, and shouted coldly: "Presumptuous!"

The eyes of all the gangsters fell on Fu Yunshu. After a while, everyone burst into laughter, and the iron tower standing in front of the sedan chair also laughed and said, "I thought it was the daughter of a big girl with yellow flowers, but I didn't expect it to be a little boy!"

Someone behind followed him and shouted: "What's wrong with the little boy? You are beautiful and capable, you can be content!"

The bandits were indeed rude and disrespectful, so angry that Fu Yunshu's fair face blushed a little. He tried to calm down, looked at the iron tower coldly, and said, "I am the new county magistrate of Jiuhe County, who hijacked the imperial court. Ordering an official is a capital offense, and if you are sensible, go back to your own bandit den, otherwise the county will let you and other rats die without a place to bury them!"

What he said was quite imposing, and all the bandits were stunned for a moment, looking at each other, one of them raised his eyebrows and said, "Who are you kidding? You are the new county magistrate? Grandpa, I am still the emperor's private visit." Be sensible and obediently accompany the grandpas back to play for two days, the service will make us feel comfortable, and maybe I will reward you with two copper coins.” After finishing speaking, the bandits burst out laughing again.

Fu Yunshu's pale face turned red, purple, purple, and white again. He was angry with his father, and took office alone without a servant. He was planning to make some political achievements to convince his father, but who knew that he died before he was able to complete his mission? If the bandit doesn't succeed, he will fall into the bandit's hands... His hand sneaked into the bag, holding a dagger, and he died as soon as he died. He must not suffer such a great humiliation.

The sharp-eyed bandit standing in front of the sedan chair immediately noticed his small movements and shouted, "What are you trying to do sneakily?!"

Fu Yunshu gritted his teeth, drew out his dagger and stabbed at the bandit.

The dagger gleamed coldly under the sunlight and was full of yin. It was a good weapon, but the hand holding the dagger was easily pinched by the other hand.The bandit held Fu Yunshu's wrist and squeezed it hard, and the dagger immediately fell to the ground with a crisp "clang".

The bandit snorted disdainfully: "You have no strength to restrain a chicken." Facing Fu Yunshu who was gnashing his teeth, he immediately changed into his previous wretched face, and said with a smile: "Don't waste your efforts, young man, you just broke your throat by screaming. No one will come to save you."

Fu Yunshu was out of breath and struggled hard, but the wrist pinched by the bandits remained motionless, and finally shouted in despair: "Help!"

"Let him go."

Almost as soon as the words were finished, Fu Yunshu heard a cold voice coming from behind, and what fell on his ears at this time was like the sound of nature. Fu Yunshu struggled to turn around, only to see a young man in blue , holding a 28-bone paper umbrella painted with bluegrass, standing quietly not far away.

The bandit sneered, and said, "Here comes another boy." As he spoke, he really let go of Fu Yunshu's hand.

Fu Yunshu hurriedly yelled: "They have a lot of people, so you should protect yourself!"

The young man in blue put away the paper umbrella in his hand, put it aside, raised his head and smiled at Fu Yunshu, and said, "It's okay."

This smile was like the radiance of the nine heavens, and it quietly fell on Fu Yunshu's eyebrows and heart in a haze, and he was instantly fascinated by the sight. When he came back to his senses, the young man in green shirt dusted off the dust on his body, looked back at him, He smiled and said, "It's all right."

The group of bandits were beaten and lay on the ground screaming, without the previous arrogance, begging for mercy while rolling in pain, saying "I will never dare to ask the hero to let me go".

Young Master Qingshan turned cold, his brows twitched slightly, and said: "Aren't you going to get out?"

"Get out, get out!" A group of eight-foot men fled up the mountain quickly, clutching their buttocks.Seeing that, Fu Yunshu's eyes widened, he turned his head and looked at the young man in green shirt in disbelief, and said, "I can't see that young master has such handsome skills!"

Young Master Qingshan smiled and said: "Walking in the rivers and lakes, you have to work hard." As he spoke, he picked up the paper umbrella that had been thrown aside before, opened the umbrella with Mo Lan painted on it, and propped it on top of Fu Yunshu's head. He couldn't help but wonder Question: "Why do you want to hold an umbrella, my lord?"

Young Master Qingshan said: "It's going to rain."

As soon as the voice fell, a thunderbolt flashed by, and there was a rumbling thunder in the clear sky, and the torrential rain poured down.

Young Master Qingshan held an umbrella and escorted Fu Yunshu all the way into Jiuhe County.When he arrived in the county, Fu Yunshu was not in a hurry to go to the county government first, but insisted on treating his savior to a meal. Young Master Qingshan couldn't refuse, so he sat down at a wonton stand by the roadside and said, "Then treat me to a meal." A bowl of wontons."

It was raining heavily, the streets were empty, and the rain continued to fall from the edge of the tarpaulin.The wontons were served quickly, and they were served in a muddy yellow casserole, creating a fragrant mist.

Young Master Qingshan pushed one of the bowls in front of Fu Yunshu, and said, "I stayed in Jiuhe County for a few days, and I think the wonton casserole here is the best. Please try it, Young Master."

Fu Yunshu picked up a spoon and scooped one, blew it cool and put it in his mouth. He smiled pleasantly and said, "It's really delicious. It's quite different from the wontons I cook at home."

Young Master Qingshan then asked: "How are the wontons in your home like?"

Fu Yunshu said: "I heard that the soup base is made of several herbs such as hen, bamboo shoots, wolfberry and angelica, which part of the meat is used for the meat stuffing, how lean and fat, and what kind of noodles and ingredients are used for the skin. , How to roll it out... In short, it is very troublesome and complicated, I don't understand, I just eat it."

Young Master Qingshan smiled and said: "It seems that Young Master is from a wealthy family."

Fu Yunshu also said with a smile: "No matter how expensive the wonton is, it tastes like wonton. I tasted this bowl, and it was no worse than my family's. Like me, if you really fall into danger, it's just a first-timer." The slaughtered fat sheep, this time is really thanks to the young master's rescue, the young master's great kindness and virtue, I will never forget it." After finishing speaking, he stood up and bowed deeply to the young master in blue.

Young Master Qingshan didn't stop him, his eyes fell deeply on Fu Yunshu's face, and after a while, he said: "It's nothing worth mentioning."

Fu Yunshu said sincerely: "My servant, Fu Yunshu, people from the capital will live in Jiuhe County from now on. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to Jiuhe County to find me. I will do my best for you."

Young Master Qingshan nodded and said, "Okay."

While talking, the wind stopped and the rain stopped, and a bowl of wontons was finished.The young man in green shirt put away his umbrella and got up, said to Fu Yunshu, "We will meet later" and walked out.

Fu Yunshu hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Dare to ask your lord's name?"

"Miangui's surname is Kou," he stopped not far away, looked back leisurely, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, "Kou Luoche."

There is Jindiao Mountain outside Jiuhe County, and there is Yingzui Cliff on Jindiao Mountain. Therefore, Yingzui Cliff has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

In times of chaos, it was a battlefield of wild horses and horses, but in times of prosperity, it became a den of bandits.Qunying Village, which ravaged Jiuhe County and made the rich businessmen in Jiangbei panic, is located on Yingzui Cliff.

At this moment, Kou Luoche is also on Yingzui Cliff, in the Eagle Village.

He sits on the throne of the village lord.

The paper umbrella painted with elegant ink orchids was still propped up at the feet, and the residual rainwater dripped down the umbrella ribs, soaking the tiger skin blanket on the ground.He was still wearing a clean and upright green shirt, but the former gentle and handsome young man seemed to be a different person. He lay reclined like a boneless man, raised one foot and rested it on the edge of the chair, and said lazily, "Pigeon Tiger."

A big man came out in response, it was the one who was in charge of molesting Fu Yunshu earlier.

Kou Luoche raised his eyelids, gave him a flat look, and said, "I have wronged you for the play I sang today."

"Don't be wronged, don't be wronged." Ge Hu felt that his acting skills were superb, and he sang today's play very well. The village owner must be satisfied with watching it. He wanted to praise himself, and he couldn't help saying a few words of humility, saying : "Although the little county magistrate is an out-and-out man, he has a pretty face, and it's pleasing to the eye."

"Does it look good?" Kou Luoche couldn't help but think of the moment when Fu Yunshu raised his head when he saluted him before, his face was delicate and gentle, his eyebrows were clear and his eyes were clear, and the sky in his eyes faded, like a lake.He suddenly smiled and said, "It's really pretty."

Ge Hu failed to notice the change of his village head's mind, and Gu Zi said enthusiastically: "To say that today's scene was performed well, boss, it's really not due to me alone, where do we have any experience in molesting women from good families? It’s all because of the good words written by Army Master Qingyanzi, that’s why we were able to scare that little county magistrate into a daze!”

"Oh?" Kou Luoqi moved his eyes to the other side, "Qingyanzi?"

The first time he was called, Qing Yanzi suddenly felt a little panic in his heart for some reason, took a few steps forward, and saluted: "Village Master."

The corner of Kou Luoche's mouth raised a gentle smile again. If he ignored his sitting posture and the environment he was in, he would really look like a gentle and handsome scholar.He smiled and said: "The tasks I entrusted to you, you have all done well, you should have been rewarded, but I will live in the county government for a long time, and I can't always supervise, so you will be irritable due to arrogance..."

Qing Yanzi secretly thought something was wrong, quietly looked aside, seeing Ge Hu, the idiot who dragged himself into the water, was still giggling, couldn't help but give him a hard look.

Sure enough, Kou Luoche smiled and said: "It's because of your arrogance that you are bored, so you can skip the dinner for the next three days." After finishing speaking, he bent down to pick up the paper umbrella, got up with a flick of his sleeves, and left behind. Pigeon Tiger with wide-eyed eyes and Qing Yanzi with aggrieved face walked outside.

After the village master disappeared from sight, Gehu finally came to his senses, grabbed Qing Yanzi's arm in confusion, and asked anxiously, "Don't you all praise us for doing a good job? Why do we have to be fined?"

"The owner of the village is a great hero, and the little county magistrate is barely a beauty," Qing Yanzi said with a sullen face, "Heroes should feel sorry for beauty."

After staying in the stockade for three days, he supervised Gehu and Qingyanzi to be hungry for three nights. On the fourth day, Kou Luoche carried a burden and wandered down the mountain again.

Fu Yunshu has arrived, and the people in the streets and alleys are talking about the new county magistrate. Kou Luoqiao leaned over and asked with a smile: "Uncle, I just returned to my hometown, and I don't know anything about the current situation in the county. Dare to ask the county magistrate what's wrong?" ?”

The road said humanely: "The new county magistrate came here alone, without any slaves. The original manpower in the county government was insufficient, so the county magistrate wrote a notice and posted it, saying that he wanted to recruit a master."

Kou Luoche said: "Thank you for letting me know."

The notice place was crowded with people, and a group of plain-headed ordinary people didn't know whether they could read or not, like a group of ducks being held by their necks, hopping on tiptoe in front of the notice place.

Kou Luoche pushed away the person standing in front of him, looked at the notice for a moment, and then raised his hand to tear it off.
