The young man carried Jing Yun into the yurt. The place where the old couple lived was not as big as the one next door, but it was enough to accommodate them. The old couple went to the yurt of their son and daughter-in-law and left their own small yurt for them.
They couldn't eat and live for free, so the young man gave the old couple one hundred knives according to the prices in Wubie Mountain.
The currency circulating in the Huns market is not Brother Kong Fang, but a coin similar to a small knife. The currency is made of bronze and has the same face value as Brother Kong Fang, but you can buy more things. One dollar coin is equivalent to three to five copper plates. In fact, one hundred knives is considered a very unreasonable amount of board and lodging expenses. If it is changed in the town, the upper room of an inn is only fifty knives.
The young man thought that the couple should be grateful, but they didn't even raise their eyelids, and told him in Hun dialect full of strong local accents that the next door also came to lodge, and they gave him ten taels!
The ten taels of silver actually included the accommodation for eleven people, one roasted whole lamb, two fresh lambs to lead the way, two large pots of kumiss, a large bowl of cheese, etc. Strictly counting, they didn’t take any of the money. to what cheap.
But the old couple didn't settle the account. In short, it's ten taels, you can't be too little!
He had been slaughtering people all his life, but in the end he was slaughtered by a couple from the countryside. The young man was so stuffy in his chest that he almost couldn't hold it anymore!
But when he thought of this cash cow, he felt that he would be able to make a lot of money in the future, so tonight, he only invested in himself!
The young man paid two taels of silver painfully.
Soon, delicious food and drink were served.
After the "brothers and sisters" changed into dry outfits, they saw steaming food on the small wooden tea table in the yurt—two bowls of mutton bone soup, a bowl of kumiss, five mutton pies, and a plate of yellow-orange milk. son.
The two of them had been on the road for a day, and they were so hungry that they were already hungry. After another meal of rain, they were very cold, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as hungry and cold.
At this moment, they finally saw what they were eating, and no one was holding back anymore. They picked up the mutton bone soup in front of them and took a big gulp.
The soup sprinkled with pepper and chopped scallions, mixed with the unique umami flavor of lamb bones, is spicy but not spicy. After eating half a bowl, the whole body is warmed up, and all the taste buds are opened. From pies to milk skins, one piece Zhang, piece by piece, the food decreased at a visible speed.
Xiaobai also came to share a piece of the pie, but Xiaobai didn't eat the sheep bones, he ate the milk skin!
In the young man's eyes, this is a little thing that hasn't been weaned yet.
The young man looked at Jing Yun: "How much did you pay for this dog?"
I delivered it to my door.
"The fur color is good." The young man touched Xiao Bai's body. He had done a lot of fur reselling business, and this was the first time he touched such a soft puppy fur. It was so comfortable that he wished he could wrap this little thing inside. arms.
I don't know what kind it is.
But it doesn't matter what kind, in his mouth, the goods in the valley can also be blown into the treasure of Jiuxiaotiangong, and if he finds someone who takes advantage of him later, it will be another profit!
With a flash of thought, the young man schemingly fed a piece of milk to Xiao Bai.
Xiaobai loves to drink pots of milk, and also loves to eat small milk!
I rubbed my head against the boy's palm to show my thanks!
It's not that the young man has never seen a dog before, but he is so cute that his heart is so cute that he has never seen a second one in front of him.
"Hey." He looked at Jing Yun. He didn't know Jing Yun's name yet, so he just kept coming and going, "You little thing is good, and you can sell it for a lot of money. Those ladies and ladies in big cities love this little thing the most." Small, soft and docile…”
Before he finished speaking, a wet black figure rushed in holding a machete.
"ah-"
Anger rushed towards them, the shining big knife was stained with crystal rain, the rain splashed the young man's face, and the young man's legs were so frightened that his legs went limp.
Seeing that the knife was about to hit them, the little thing that was nibbling on the milk skin suddenly flew up, and sent the robber flying with its claws.
The lad was stunned...
Qiao Wei was awakened by Zhuer's creaking sound. She concentrated on hearing the unusual movement. She first looked at Wang Shu and Ji Mingxiu who were beside her. Seventeen, Seventeen is already there.
She put on a robe, pushed open the door of the yurt, and bumped into the eldest disciple who was walking towards this side.
She looked at the group of robbers who were beaten by Shiqihang not far away, and asked calmly, "Who is it?"
The eldest disciple entered the yurt, wiped the rainwater off his face, and said, "The horse thief probably has been eyeing us for a long time, and wants to rob us of our supplies while we are asleep."
Horse thieves are rampant on the grassland, especially in winter, when supplies are scarce, horse thieves can't sit still anymore. They are a mighty group, sitting in the best carriage and riding the best horses, so it's no wonder they don't get caught.
The few horse thieves Qiao Wei didn't pay attention to, but she didn't want to implicate the innocent because of herself, so she asked the eldest disciple to go around to see if any horse thieves broke into the herdsman's house.
The first disciple remembered an elderly couple who lived next door, and was about to take someone there to have a look, when he saw a horse thief wearing animal skins flying out of the yurt next door. When I saw it, I realized that it looked like being kicked by someone.
The horse thief threw himself into the mud and fell like a dog eating shit.
Immediately afterwards, several horse thieves rushed in, but without exception, they were all kicked (patted) out by people (ermines).
The corner of the eldest disciple's mouth twitched. Was that old couple with stooped bodies and gray temples so powerful? The master is among the people!
After Xiaobai shot seven or eight horse thieves flying away, the young man's eyeballs almost popped out.
Is this really a soft and cute little milk dog
Why are you so cruel? !
By the way, little guy, is it really okay for you to have such a cruel pet
Does your mother know? !
(Jing Yun: It was a gift from my mother!)
After Xiaobai beat the horse thief, he continued to go back to Jing Yun to eat the little milk, as if the vicious and violent little milk mink just now was just an illusion of the young man...
…
The horse thieves were all beaten away, and the eldest disciple and Shi Qi and others went back to their room to rest. The eldest disciple didn't think that what happened next door had anything to do with them, so he didn't tell Qiao Wei specifically.
Qiao Wei lay back on the bed covered with blankets, and there was still a lingering aroma of mutton in the yurt. Smelling this aroma, she thought of Jing Yun.
In the days when they couldn’t even afford meat on the mountain, mutton vermicelli soup was their most extravagant thing.
In fact, this night, not only Qiao Wei missed her son, Xiaobai and Zhuer also missed their little animal friends very much. During the countless days of fighting side by side, they all supported each other. She has her little iron pot, and it has its own. Little Talon.
Today, they are all there, but the little animal friend is gone.
They don't know, whether it's Little Beast Friend or Jing Yun, they are all in the yurt next door.
…
It rained heavily all night and did not stop until dawn.
The sky cleared up, the blue sky was like washing, and the grassland was fragrant.
Everyone started packing their bags.
Yesterday's clothes had been dried, so the young man asked himself and Jing Yun to change into them.
Jing Yun was born beautiful, and then put on these little girls' headgear and clothes, she is even more beautiful than the princesses in the royal court!
If he hadn't been sure that the boy was a bird, the boy would almost have thought that the girl he had abducted was really a little girl.
The old couple made breakfast and didn't say a word about the horse thief. It seems that the horse thief happened not once or twice in this area, and everyone has already taken it for granted.
Breakfast is two bowls of mutton vermicelli soup.
The fans were borrowed from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law next door, who said that the rich lady gave them some food, and among them were fans from the Central Plains.
The couple boiled and tasted some, the noodles were smoother and more refreshing than the old noodles, the little girl should like it.
Unexpectedly, Jing Yun looked at the mutton vermicelli soup on the table and didn't move his chopsticks for a long time.
The young man looked at him strangely: "Why don't you eat?"
Jing Yun didn't speak, stood up and went to pack his things.
The young man shouted: "If you don't want to eat, I will eat it?"
Jing Yun packed up his things and handed them over to Xiaobai to take care of them.
The young man wanted to touch some silver, but when he saw the little milk dog lying on the burden, his outstretched hand was retracted.
Jing Yun went to the back to use the toilet.
On the way, I met the big disciple who had just finished going to the toilet.
The eldest disciple had seen Wang Shu, but not Jing Yun. For a while, he couldn't recognize Jing Yun. He only felt that the little girl was really beautiful. Like a nobleman's child.
Jing Yun had never met the eldest disciple before, and the two passed by.
When the eldest disciple returned to the yurt, he saw a carriage standing next door. He remembered that there was no carriage next door when he came here yesterday. Could it be that the son and daughter-in-law of the old couple came back
Not long after, the young man came out of the yurt with his luggage, and the old couple followed him and helped him to load the goods. He said words of gratitude, and the eldest disciple knew that this was also a place to stay.
The senior disciple curiously asked the other party's identity, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law told the senior disciple that two other guests came to stay next door last night. They were a brother and sister. They were said to be businessmen and they were going to Wubie Mountain to do business.
The eldest disciple couldn't help being stunned. Just now that pretty little girl and this young man are brother and sister
How did such an ugly brother have such a beautiful sister
The young man still doesn't know that he is "so ugly". His appearance is not as good-looking as it is, but he is also considered to be pretty, but compared with Jing Yun, he can indeed be compared to the mud.
The eldest disciple asked about the identity of the other party, and he probably knew who beat off the horse thief last night, so he asked how did the old couple become so powerful all of a sudden
Qiao Wei packed up her things, and the door was open. She caught a glimpse of the carriage diagonally opposite. At this moment, the eldest disciple passed by her door, and she called him in: "Who is there?"
The eldest disciple said in a loud voice, "They are a pair of brothers and sisters staying overnight, and they are doing business."
"Brothers and sisters..." Qiao Wei lowered her eyes in disappointment, embraced Wang Shu, and walked out of the yurt.
When Jing Yun came back from the toilet, he caught sight of a familiar figure from behind, and his small body instantly petrified!
Standing there blankly, his little hands were tightly held, his eyes were bright, and his breathing was trembling.
Qiao Wei was about to carry Wang Shu into the carriage, and after walking a few steps, a strange feeling suddenly flashed in her heart. She turned around and looked at the source of the strange feeling.
"What's wrong?" the eldest disciple came over and asked.
Qiao Wei looked at the empty grassland, feeling uncomfortable in her heart, collected herself, and said calmly: "It's nothing."
Behind the yurt, Jing Yun's nose was red, he wiped his red eyes with his small hands, and walked back to the yurt from behind.
"Hey, I've changed my mind." The young man said while packing dry food, "We won't go to Mount Ubie any more, I'll take you to the capital!"
People in Wangdu have more stupid money, one child plus one powerful animal pet, the money sold can make him live comfortably for the rest of his life!
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Lai Jingyun's response for a long time. He looked at Jingyun in bewilderment, and seeing his red eye circles, he couldn't help being taken aback, "What's wrong with you? You don't want to go to the capital? Let me tell you, Wangdu is very good, much better than Wubie Mountain! There are many delicious food, a lot of fun, and money to earn! When you arrive in Wangdu, I will buy you whatever you want!"
Jing Yun looked at Qiao Wei's carriage through the gap in the window, Qiao Wei hugged Wang Shu up, a gust of cold wind blew away the blanket wrapped around Wang Shu, and she closed it gently.
"Where are they going?"
Jing Yun spoke suddenly, with a slight choke in his voice.
The young man was so nervous that he didn't hear what was wrong with Jing Yun. He looked in the direction the carriages were facing and said, "Should he be going to Wubie Mountain? If you really want to go to Wubie Mountain..."
"No need." Jing Yun picked up the small bundle, put Xiao Bai in it, and carried it on his back.
The young man was very happy, and finally he was able to go to the capital to make a fortune! God treats him well!
Over there, Qiao Wei and her party were ready, two guards had already opened the way ahead, and the carriages of the national teacher and the first disciple moved slowly.
Qiao Wei's carriage also moved.
"Wait." Qiao Wei stopped the driver, got out of the carriage, walked into the yurt, took out a portrait, a bag of silver, and a wooden sign from the local government, and handed them to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Words and gestures were used together, "I, son, I am looking for him. If you see him, send him to the government."
Jing Yun came out of the yurt and walked towards his carriage without looking sideways.
Wang Shu woke up faintly, yawned a little, his body was awake, but his mind was still muddled, he looked at Daddy and little Pearl beside him with a dazed expression.
Who am I, where am I, what am I going to do...
Goo~
Very hungry.
Wang Shu jumped out of the carriage.
There was a little girl from the Huns standing in front of her. Just by looking at her back, she knew she must be a little beauty!
"Little Beauty" saw her as early as the moment she got off the car, and pretended to walk forward, determined not to look back.
Anyway, dressed like this, this little stupid fat man can't recognize it.
Wang Shu jumped up and came behind the little beauty, opened his pink mouth, and said crisply: "Brother!"
