The wind stopped and the rain stopped, and the air was filled with the smell of soil.
While temporarily sheltering from the rain in a forest, Wu Zhe and Mu Qingya were playing guessing games in the carriage. Mu Qingya usually has no one who wants to accompany her. Now that Wu Zhe can understand sign language, it's much easier to play, and she really enjoys it.
For Wu Zhe, Mu Qingya is a schoolgirl-level beauty. Although her appearance is intentionally made up a bit, it's good to know it in her heart. It's very cool to scratch each other's noses and beat each other in the game.
The game in this world is too simple, if you have time, it would be good to make some small inventions.
"Although the rain has stopped, the roadbed is not solid because of the heavy rain just now. The horses will walk much slower than usual, and I'm afraid they won't be able to catch up with the town in front of them." The leader of the escort asked Zong Zhilian for instructions. .
"Is there a safe place nearby?" Zong Zhilian asked.
"There is a dilapidated house. Although it is dirty, it can always keep out the wind and cold. Or go back a bit, and return to the nearest Zhanyang Town."
"Ruoyao, what do you think?" Zong Zhilian asked.
"Ask me what I do?" Wu Zhezheng and Mu Qingyazheng were having a great time playing.
Zong Zhilian said with a smile: "You are a dog-headed military commander. Our army can't advance quickly, but then retreat slowly after hesitation, what should we do?"
"..." Wu Zhe glanced at the old man who was sitting alone in a carriage behind him, and said, "I'll ask him."
The escort was puzzled, but Zong Zhilian smiled and let Wu Zhe go.
"Cheap dad..." Wu Zhe called the sloppy old man.
"Girl, you're spoiling me." The slovenly old man refused to accept this cheap title.
"Then I'll call you an old man." Wu Zhe put down the pole quickly, and said directly: "It's raining and the road is difficult to walk. What should you do based on your experience, old man?"
"How do I know?" The sloppy old man looked up at the sky: "I walk on weekdays. All I know is that the rain has stopped this evening, and tomorrow will be a fine day."
Wu Zhe repeated a few more words, but got nothing, so he returned.
Even though you are tight-lipped, but Elder Bai is willing to make a special appearance, there must be something tricky.
Wu Zhe thought about the situation at that time and made an inference. If Elder Bai followed his own aura to find him, the evolutionary body would probably send out an alarm from afar like a night attack, saying that he was locked by a strong person. But at that time, there was no alarm sound in his mind. It is very likely that Elder Bai had been staring at his group for a long time, but he just came out at the right time. In this way, this old man is worthy of suspicion.
"The old man doesn't want to make up his mind." Wu Zhe shrugged his shoulders, "Captain, you can decide for yourself, I don't understand either."
"Since we are on a mission, we shouldn't be too cowardly. Let's go break the house." Zong Zhi thought for a while, "Just be more prepared at night."
The bodyguard arched his hands and arranged for the coachman to go slightly off the road.
The road was muddy due to the heavy rain, and it was difficult for the horses to move forward. If you are not careful, you will easily get stuck in the mud and break your legs.
The ruts are even more difficult, and the coachman jumped out of the car many times to pad the straw before pulling them over.
Fortunately, it was not far from the dilapidated house mentioned by the head of the escort, and everyone arrived soon.
It looked like an abandoned house, groggy in the twilight, without any sound.
Wu Zhe took a closer look and didn't feel any alarm from the evolutionary body, so he didn't say much.
"A bodyguard is walking on a horse, and it's hard to pull out its muddy legs. Use a place to rest your feet, don't bother me. Zhao's bodyguard bureau is polite—!" The bodyguard of these four bodyguards is the name of the Zhao family, and they shouted polite words loudly before entering the house.
After waiting for a few breaths, there was no response from inside. They tied up their chariots, cleaned them up a bit, and went inside to rest.
Although the house is dilapidated, the main structure is not damaged. The shower did not wet the room, and the effect of closing the door for wind protection was also good.
"Go over there and change your clothes." Zong Zhilian sympathized with the groom, and took out a few extra robes he bought at a custom cloth shop and handed them over.
Everyone's carriages were not bad, only a few coachmen's clothes were wet. Several servants quickly thanked him, and praised the boss for his kindness.
Considering that the two young girls Wu Zhe and Mu Qingya were present, the coachmen wanted to find a secluded place to change their clothes.
Wu Zhe was careful and stopped him, saying, "Don't walk away, just change here."
She has long been familiar with the plots of haunted houses and so on in traditional literature or online novels, and there is always a feeling that once a few people leave, they will never come back.
Zong Zhilian praised: "That's right, you are worthy of being our dog-headed military advisor."
Mu Qingya's face blushed, but she quickly understood Wu Zhe's caution, and pulled Wu Zhe to turn her back.
Several coachmen confessed their guilt, and put on new robes behind Wu Zhe and Mu Qingya's backs.
The night was getting dark, and the younger escort came over to light the fire, the coachman helped clear the ground, and put thatch on the ground, and everyone sat down.
The coachman went to the door again and unhooked the horses, led them in and stood resting together in a corner. Fortunately, the lobby is spacious enough to accommodate it.
The only problem was that as soon as the door was closed, the smell of the dirty old man became stronger.
Even the few horses couldn't bear it, and they wanted to kick.
You must find an airtight place, away from the crowd.
Wu Zhe scanned the dilapidated lobby and saw a large basket in the corner.
Wu Zhe smiled sharply in his heart, and arranged for the coachman: "Go and get the rope hanging from the car outside. Yes, take more. Well, tie the big basket around a few times. Wrap it around the beam and hang it up for a try."
"..." The sloppy old man felt a little bad.
Sure enough, after a while, the old man was sitting in the basket, was hoisted to a place close to the crossbeam, and wobbled in a daze.
The old man's protest was ineffective, and Wu Zhe pushed him into the basket with his own hands.
If Elder Bai and the others were still observing in the dark, they would definitely be rolling with laughter. In order to test the candidates for the apprentices, the master of the sword-wielding sect with such a great status fell to the point of being hung up in a basket...
"Isn't that tasteless?" Wu Zhe asked Zong Zhilian and others.
Everyone was so happy that they couldn't stand upright.
Mu Qingya was a little embarrassed to treat the old man like this, so she tugged at the corner of Wu Zhe's clothes softly.
Wu Zhe didn't take it seriously: "It's his own fault. We'll just throw it up for him when we eat later."
"That's right, if he's down there, who can eat it?" Hu Yunshang agreed heartily. If he stays any longer, he still knows how to measure it.
So no one raised any objections.
"Salted meat..." a bodyguard muttered looking up at the top of his neck.
"Don't say it, it's a bit like bacon." Zong Zhilian said with a smile: "At least it's quite tasty."
Everyone laughed, ignored the old man's protest above, sat around the fire and began to eat dinner.
How could the quality of the various foods bought by Zong Zhilian be so low? And he didn't mind giving the coachman the same food, which made the atmosphere quite harmonious.
"I'll try it first, and I'll tell you if it's not tasty." Wu Zhe hurriedly ate and drank a little of every food and drink.
Zong Zhilian and others understood that she knew the principle of medicine and stones, and it was probably to ensure safety from being drugged. Others don't mind, who cares if a little girl grabs some food
The young bodyguard among the bodyguards also took out a small gourd containing wine.
Don't dare to drink too much when you go out, and everyone can get some cold air if you share a share.
Wu Zhe pretended to have bright eyes, grabbed it unceremoniously and poured a little into his mouth while holding it high.
The young bodyguard was a little reluctant, but it was because of the embarrassment of his employer that he could not speak out.
He didn't know that Wu Zhe wanted to try poison. After all, putting aside whether the bodyguard is safe and reliable, diet is the easiest to be tampered with.
"Young lady, can you drink some wine too?" The escort asked with a smile.
Zong Zhilian said meaningfully: "It's not that I can drink some, even if these horses are full of wine, it is not enough for her to drink."
Everyone just took it as a joke, and no one cared.
Wu Zhe distributed some wine for the crowd with his own hands, but he heard the old man above yelling: "Give me some! Give me some! My wine worm has been hooked out!"
"If you want this wine, you have to give me some favors." Wu Zhe rolled his eyes, raised his neck and shouted at the old man hanging above.
"I have something good for you."
"Forget it." Wu Zhe ignored him.
Seeing that he couldn't get the wine, the old man immediately began to play tricks: "No, no. If you don't give it to me, I will piss down!"
Everyone panicked.
Wu Zhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, hanging him up actually caused him to be threatened.
Forget it, stop teasing him. Wu Zhe found the lid of the gourd, touched it, closed it, and threw it to the sloppy old man.
The old man caught it leisurely, nestled in the big basket without saying thank you.
The crowd continued to share cooked food such as beef and mutton, and threw a large piece to the old man above.
The slovenly old man took a sip of wine and a mouthful of meat on it, and ate quite comfortably while swaying.
After drinking and eating, it was actually still early. Everyone is young or in their prime and just want to have some fun.
"Let's tell a story. How about a few escorts tell us about their experiences?" Zong Zhi recalled that he once told Wu Zhe and the others in the carriage about their childhood.
The bodyguards didn't hold back, and told some anecdotes one after another.
However, for Wu Zhe, who is used to appreciating heavy-duty jokes, it doesn't mean much. It's nothing more than some uninspiring content such as darts, killing people, playing prestige, and protecting the property of the owner and employer.
Ahh—Wu Zhe yawned boredly.
The young bodyguard who was a little sullen before that was unwilling, and said coldly: "This girl is tired? If you can't bear it, let's rest. In case there are many bloody and frightening stories about the bodyguard, you girls But I can't sleep well."
The head of the bodyguard is so smart, he immediately heard the sarcasm of his subordinates, and was about to smooth things over...
"Why don't I tell some stories." Wu Zhe felt that it was necessary to improve the story aesthetics of this group of people.
As soon as Wu Zhe finished speaking, before everyone could respond, the scruffy old man's snoring came from above their heads.
"Hululu—hululu—"
Absolutely intentional... Many people think so.
The old man who got into trouble just now, the revenge came so fast. This is slapping the girl's face, which means that she tells stories and others can only sleep.
Indeed, what stories can such a young female doll family tell? Everyone thought so.
It's better to sleep, it's better than coaxing the little girl to pretend to be very attractive and willing to listen.
Even Mu Qingya and others who had confidence in Wu Zhe felt that she was just telling stories that she had read in some book.
Amidst the reluctant nods of the crowd, Wu Zhe shook his arms, and the jade bracelet jingled softly, which was quite the sound of shaking the scene.
Everyone fell silent.
"The blue shirt is upright and the dangerous peak is walking, the jade wall is bright and the moon is shining. The horse is sick and fragrant, the cliff is high and the people are far away, and the hub pattern is born in a small step. Whoever's children are in the yard, there is no regret and affection. Tigers roar and dragons sing, change nests, luanfengs, The sword energy is green and the smoke is horizontal." Wu Zhe started the opening sentence, and blurted out a poem from "Youth Tour".
Master Jin's masterpiece: "Dragon Babu"!
When Wu Zhe opened his mouth, everyone was stunned.
Although the languages of the two worlds are different, with the help of the invincible language translation function of the evolutionary body, the language conversion is almost perfect. Although it is far from the original intention, the charm is more added.
"The blue light flashed, and a green steel sword stabbed out, pointing at the young man's left shoulder, so that the young man with the sword would not wait to recruit the old man..."
After she uttered a childish voice and told the story euphemistically, no one questioned her thoughts anymore.
In Wu Zhe's narration, a large number of textual content that was customary in the 1980s and whose transition was slow was omitted. There are also specific details such as the Shaoshang point for martial arts training, etc., which are all deleted to avoid trouble.
"...the masters of the Eastern and Western Schools of Wuliangjian used to see the shadow of immortals dancing swords on the jade wall on the night of the moon. This jade wall stands next to the lake, and it is true that the shadow of the immortal is reflected on the jade wall. You have to dance your sword in the lake..."
After Wu Zhe spoke "Dragon and Babu" with more than 30,000 to 40,000 words, everyone was completely absorbed by the wonderful story they had never heard before, and they didn't even notice that the fire was fading.
"Emperor Baoding and Ben Can both rushed out, seeing that Jiumozhi has gone far away..." Wu Zhe didn't rest until Duan Yu was captured by the evil monk, and filled two handfuls of firewood into the fire.
Only then did everyone react with an ah.
"Speak quickly, girl, don't delay."
"Yes, I have grown up so much, I have never heard such a beautiful story!"
"What's going on in the future, what's going on? Is Mr. Duan Yuduan in danger for his life? I'm so anxious!" The young bodyguard didn't feel sullen at all, but scratched his head instead.
The head of the escort grabbed a new water hyacinth, and held it to Wu Zhe with both hands flatteringly: "Girl, take a sip to moisten your throat."
Mu Qingya was holding onto Wu Zhe's hand all the time. At this moment, her little hand was also covered with sweat. She was obviously deeply involved in the play, and her big eyes looked at Wu Zhe expectantly, hoping that she would continue quickly.
Even the sloppy old man hanging under the crossbeam had unconsciously stopped snoring.
Wu Zhe took a sneak peek, and the old man was holding on to the side of the basket, looking down eagerly.
