The river was sparkling, illuminating Ye Ziming's face. "Did you know that in Beirong, Holly Birds are not used by the nobles and the military. If someone finds out, no matter how powerful my Ye family is, I will be impeached." Yes, I, Ye Ziming, cannot bear this responsibility. In recent years, many people have coveted Holly, and they have killed several groups of spies from other countries. What do you want to do?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Gen knew that Zi Minghui had misunderstood and thought that he was a craftsman.
In front of such smart people, it is better to be more calm, "My name is Wu Gen. I am originally from the Zhao country, and I have been living here. This place is still far away from my homeland. I saw the holly horse my brother rode yesterday, so I thought of using his leg strength." Send him on a journey. Of course, Brother Ye can also send someone to accompany him and return when he reaches the border of Zhao State."
"What good do I have?" Ye Ziming said with disdain.
"What benefits does Brother Ye want?" Wu Gen went straight to the point and looked directly at the other party.
"I want your knife." Ye Ziming showed no sign of weakness.
"impossible."
"Then there's no point in talking about it."
"What else do you want besides a knife?"
"Soldiers and beauties are the best things in my life, Ye Ziming. If you were a twenty-eight-year-old beauty, there is no way I would sacrifice my life for a beauty. It's a pity that I don't have the habit of cutting off my sleeves."
Wu Gen's face darkened, "If you dare to break it, I will break it to you. Don't be afraid that I will kill you and seize birds."
Ye Ziming looked up to the sky and laughed, "In my age, this is the first time someone has threatened me like this. It's funny." He stretched out his head and exposed his neck, "You might as well give it a try."
Wu Gen rubbed his chin and said with a smile: "Such magnanimity makes me dare not take action. If I kill a nobleman, I'm afraid I won't even be able to leave Baigui City, and I will have to be quartered by five horses."
Doing business or not? It’s a matter of discussion. Brother's price is too high, so why not give in to each other. In this way, how about I introduce a handsome person to you in the future as an addition to this transaction. "
Shui Congyue's appearance appeared in his mind. Thinking of the encounter between Ye Ziming and Shui Congyue, Wu Gen couldn't help but reveal a strange smile on his face.
"Oh, what a handsome person, compared to Mei Niang." Ye Ziming turned to point to the group of people by the river.
"It's vulgar and vulgar, but it's worthy of comparison."
Ye Ziming hesitated, "Such a beautiful woman is worth looking forward to, but I always feel that you are playing some evil tricks. That's all, these are the moon in the water, the flowers in the mirror, they don't count. Tell me, what price can you offer? .”
Wu Gen thought for a while and took out a red stone strip more than a foot long. The texture of the stone strips is delicate, and under the sunlight, there is a faint golden light on them.
Ye Ziming narrowed his eyes and stared at this inconspicuous stone. He stretched out his hand to take it, but Wu Gen took the stone back and said, "How's the deal?"
"First, let's talk about the use of this thing." Zi Ming said worriedly.
"Get your sword." Wu Gen stretched out his hand. Ye Ziming took off the newly forged Fengxi sword and handed it to Wu Gen.
Pulling out the sword, Wu Gen sat on the ground, poured some wine on the stone surface, and lightly rubbed the front and back sides. When the sword was raised, the light was dazzling, as bright as water, and a sharp edge came towards the face.
The breeze blows, and a few willow leaves flutter in and out. When they fly to the sword, they break into two pieces silently. _o_m
Ye Ziming took a breath of air, "What a whetstone. Although the price is a bit lower than the knife, it is not unacceptable. Let's make it clear first that I can never send someone to give it to you. Dongqing needs you to drive by yourself, otherwise it will It is suspected of being a liaison with another country."
"How to hand over."
"I'm staying in a tent by the river tonight, and the holly will be left outside the tent. As for how you get it, it depends on your ability. When you get to the place, just put the bird back, and it will know the way back."
Wu Gen snorted softly, "Aren't you afraid that I will take the bird down and not return it?"
Ye Ziming sneered and said: "A bird is useless to the country and cannot reproduce. As far as you are concerned, taking this bird to walk around Zhao is no different than a child holding gold in the city. Whether others can take it away is another matter. That's Zhao Guoguan. I don’t want to drink tea with you, but I would like to ask you where I got it from and if there is any other way to get more. You are a smart person and you don’t need to take these risks."
This Ye Ming has a very accurate grasp of people's hearts. Wu Gen admitted that even if he snatched away the holly, he would not dare to keep it next to him. Such a big target will definitely attract no.
Few eyes. Besides, I have to be on guard against King Jinchun's pursuit at all times, so I don't dare to make any mistakes.
"Okay, we are all happy people. It's a deal. I'll give you the whetstone and I'll take the bird away. I'll put it back when we get to the border. Also give me a map."
"Although this is a bit troublesome, it's not impossible."
Wu Gen stretched out his palm and the two high-fived each other as an oath.
Separating from Zi Ming, Wu Gen found a remote place and waited for nightfall. At night, as Ye Ziming said, these people set up several tents by the river, summoned a group of singers to entertain, and drank happily by the campfire.
After struggling until midnight, they each took the singer into the tent.
After waiting for another half an hour, Wu Gen saw the movement in the tent gradually subsided and quietly touched it. The moon had long since disappeared into the clouds, and everything was dark and quiet. It was a good weather for murder and arson.
This group of people had a great time tonight, even the guards withdrew, and there was no one around. This was probably Ye Ziming's arrangement.
Walking beside the tent, the air was filled with the strong smell of goat's odor, and the ground was full of food remains. Wu Gen carefully walked around to the back of the tent. The holly bird was tied to a tree, with its head buried in its feathers. It was lying on the ground and taking a nap quietly. The driver had no idea where he had gone.
Wu Gen quietly walked to the bird and untied the rope tied to the tree. Holly Bird woke up, looked at Wu Gen with his narrow eyes doubtfully, and then became furious. Without any explanation, the shimmering pointed beak pecked at Wu Gen.
Wu Gen quickly dodged and grabbed the bird's neck. The holly bird became more and more angry. It stood up on its hind limbs and grabbed Wu Gen with the two short limbs on its front chest. .c
He twisted his waist slightly to avoid its attack. Stinging, the sharp forelimbs of the holly grabbed the tree, and three long deep marks appeared. Wu Gen couldn't help but take a breath of air. This bird was so unruly and powerful. It was really no match for ordinary people.
You are what I got in exchange for a whetstone. It's okay for others to bully me. Even a bird doesn't take me seriously. Update without error@
Feeling angry, Wu Gen picked up a cow leg bone on the ground with his other hand and smashed it hard on the holly bird's head.
There was a thud, and the holly bird couldn't bear the pain. Just as he was about to shout for help, Wu Gen grabbed the holly bird's neck and hit it hard on the head again.
After all, he had been practicing martial arts for many years, and when Wu Gen hit the stick with two bones, he actually knocked out the Holly Bird on the spot. Dragging the holly bird, it hurriedly slipped away into the distance.
In the tent, Ye Ziming quietly peeked out through the gap in the tent. Seeing Wu Gen's rude appearance, he couldn't help but feel some pain in his back teeth. Growing up in the family of Haoying Shizhou, Ye Ziming has met all kinds of people, and Ye Ziming knows people very well.
Looking at this young man today, he felt that he was very dangerous, like a sharp knife hidden in a sheath. Once it is taken out of the sheath, it will inevitably bleed and bite people. It's better not to mess with such vicious people.
"Sir, are you just going to watch this person take the bird away? What should you do if you refuse to return it or kill the bird?" Mei Niang, dressed in obscene clothes, asked while lying on Ye Ziming's shoulder.
Touching the whetstone, Ye Ziming sneered: "I didn't plan for this bird to come back. It's just a holly bird. There are many animals at home. But this whetstone is not something you can get easily. . Unexpectedly, I met a knife sharpener here.
These people are so elusive and cunning that they cannot offend. Today this person will show off his whetstone and reveal his identity. If I don't give him face, won't I be making myself uncomfortable? "
"Knife sharpener? Could it be that this is some kind of secret sect." Mei Niang naturally heard that Ye Ziming was quite afraid of this knife sharpener. With his noble background, he didn't even dare to provoke him. He was not an easy person to get along with. .
"I heard that the knife sharpeners come from foreign lands, and all of them have extraordinary skills. They often travel around the world to find good materials. Give these talented people some help first, and when the time is right, they will take back the capital and profits. How to operate specifically , I don’t know much either. I just know that these people are very powerful, no less powerful than a country.
I once heard that the emperor of a small country was promoted to the throne and did not want to fulfill the previous old agreement. In anger, the grinder stirred up all the forces and even destroyed the country. The emperor was crushed to death by a huge grindstone. Think about it, who dares to look down upon a force that destroys countries and clans at every turn?
Moreover, these people are usually very hidden and scattered in various continents and countries. You just want to find them.
He doesn't know where to look for revenge. Killing one or two is purely to lay endless seeds of trouble for himself. "
Mei Niang was shocked when she heard this, "No wonder the young master has strictly ordered that no one come out of the tent tonight. Offending such a person will cause endless troubles."
"Forget it, I gave you a holly today. I got this whetstone and I've made a lot of money. As for the bird, even though I gave it to him, whether he can ride it depends on his ability.@· No mistake for the first time~~" Ye Ziming had a narrow look on his face.
The holly bird has a strong temper. If you are not familiar with the person, let alone riding the bird, Heng Heng, you are lucky not to be hurt by the bird.
"That's right, if this bird hadn't been trained a little, how could it be able to obey people's orders at will." Mei Niang smiled, stretched her arm over Ye Ziming's shoulders, and gently drew circles on his chest.
"Well, that's not bad. This person has left, but there is a flamingo here that needs training." Ye Ziming laughed.
Wu Gen dragged the holly bird and found a secluded place. Naturally, he didn't know that Ye Ziming had already thought so much about it and was just worried about how to control this big bird.
After the holly bird woke up, it still looked at itself unruly. Not to mention riding on it, it just grabbed and pecked whenever it got close. The lesson was harsh, so he simply stuck his head into the wings and pretended to be dead.
I don't have much time to slowly deal with him. It's impossible to go back. But if I continue to be so awkward, when will I be able to return to Zhao Country.
When he was helpless, he suddenly saw the arm on his arm. Since twilight can enter people's dreams, the dreams of birds should also be able to do so. You might as well let Holly recognize yourself as the master in the dream, and maybe you can listen to yourself when you wake up.
Wake up Mu and describe the current situation. Mu, however, looked disdainful. Dreams about animals and the like were not as delicious as those of humans. Under Wu Gen's coercion, he agreed to give it a try.
The dusk turned into a shadow and disappeared into the holly bird's body. After a while, the bird fell asleep boldly.
Soon, Mu appeared again, "Bah, bah, bah, what on earth is this stupid bird thinking? The dream is filled with pieces of meat, it stinks to death."
"how."
"Just now in my dream, I told this stupid bird over and over again that you are its master, so there shouldn't be any big problem. It's just that there are still some differences between the dream and the real world. It is inevitable that the bird will wake up sometimes, and then there will be more Just hit it."
Holly Bird woke up and looked at Wu Gen doubtfully, tilting his head and looking around, somewhat unsure whether the person in front of him was his master. He shook his head, as if he didn't want to think any more.
Nestling next to Wu Gen, the holly bird pointed its front paw at its head and croaked non-stop, as if complaining that it had a headache.
"Ahem." Wu Gen coughed twice, soothed the big bird that was still chattering, and waited until dawn before embarking on the return journey. After all, flying at night, if the flight went wrong again, Wu Gen might not be able to cry when he arrived in another country. .
