Chapter 46: Encountering an old friend and a chivalrous woman delivering a message; rewarding a confidant and a hero for saving a beauty
Last time, it was said that Zen Master Namo was in a panic and took Guo Xiang south. On the way, Guo Xiang saw that Zen Master Namo wanted to use his "Blue Sea Tide Palm", so he deliberately dealt with him and fooled him.
Let's talk about Guo Xiang and Zen Master Namo, one old and one young, walking out of the woods. After a while, they came to the official road. Seeing a small town in front of them, with beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery, they rushed to the town.
Arriving in the town, Guo Xiang was overjoyed to see that the houses in the town looked so familiar. Searching all the way, I saw an inn and wrote "Qingfeng Inn". I couldn't help being ecstatic - this was the inn opened by Zhuge Zhang Qing, the leader of the three villages in Qingfeng Village. Last time, my father and younger brother died in this inn. road.
Guo Xiang saw the waiter standing at the door to greet the guests from a distance. She hurriedly put her right hand on her chest and secretly waved her hand. The waiter was confused. When he got closer, he saw clearly that it was Guo Xiang. He was startled. He immediately understood and straightened himself up. Zen Master Namo has rushed over quickly and is walking side by side with Guo Xiang. Guo Xiang pretended to be nonchalant, pointed at the Qingfeng Inn, and said to Zen Master Namo while making gestures:
"I'm hungry and want to get something to eat!"
Half of what Guo Xiang said was meant for the waiter. The waiter put the rag on his shoulders, tied an apron, and sang loudly:
"Two distinguished guests, please come in—"
Zen Master Namo snorted, his face covered with frost. The waiter in the shop was stunned and thought to himself: This look on your face is really unpleasant, as if someone is borrowing rice and paying back the chaff. If it weren't for Miss Guo Er, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you. How come Miss Guo Er is walking with such a person, and her words and deeds don't seem to be so free.
The waiter secretly glanced at Guo Xiang and saw that her face was haggard, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were torn. She looked like a member of the beggar gang. He was surprised and did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly invited the two of them inside to sit down.
The two of them walked through the hall under the guidance of the waiter. It was Chenshi, and the hall was full of guests. There were many scholars drinking tea and reciting poems, as well as high-rollers playing guessing games. Everyone suddenly saw an old monk coming in with a young girl, and everyone couldn't help but look at him sideways. There were also people from Qingfeng Village among them. Guo Xiang was afraid that Zen Master Namo would suddenly attack and hurt innocent people, so he pretended not to know anyone, didn't look sideways, and hurried inside. Several people in the audience stood up and wanted to say hello to Guo Xiang. Seeing Guo Xiang, who was usually modest and friendly, he suddenly felt like a stranger.
The waiter accompanied the two to a private room, opened the curtain and guided them inside. Guo Xiang put her hands behind her back, grabbed the wrist of her right hand with her left hand, clasped the thumb and index finger of her right hand tightly, stretched out three fingers and shook them. A few people in the audience understood and stood up to leave.
The waiter asked flatteringly:
"You two gentlemen, would you like to have tea or some snacks such as steamed buns and steamed buns?"
Guo Xiang smiled reluctantly and said:
“Just grab some snacks to satisfy your hunger!”
The waiter poured tea for the two of them and shouted:
"Okay -, let's get some steamed buns -."
Sing and go out to organize.
After a while, the waiter shouted again:
"Here you go, delicious steamed buns——"
He walked in with a plate of steaming steamed buns. At this time, Guo Xiang was like a hungry ghost reincarnated. He couldn't care less about being reserved. He couldn't wait to pick up a chopstick, fork a bun, and put it into his mouth. Zen Master Namo seemed to have no appetite at all and just watched Guo Xiang eating with gusto.
Guo Xiang devoured one and then picked up the second one with chopsticks. Suddenly she heard a voice asking:
"Where is the second lady?"
Guo Xiang was shocked and the bun in her hand almost fell to the ground. She was surprised and happy that the third village advocated Qing Dynasty.
Guo Xiang thought about how to deal with it, fearing that Zhang Qing would be reckless, ignorant of the importance, attack rashly, and risk her life in vain.
At this time, when he heard Zhang Qing's voice from the next door, he laughed loudly and said loudly:
"Thank you for visiting our store. The store is full of brilliance."
The guest next door was confused and laughed in agreement:
"Where there!"
Zhang Qing asked a few questions casually, said "Please take it easy!" and walked towards Guo Xiang's private room. As soon as he entered the box, he laughed heartily and saluted Zen Master Namo. Zen Master Namo put his hands together as a return gift, Zhang Qing said:
"Thank you for visiting our store. The store is full of brilliance."
Zhang Qing saluted Guo Xiang again, pointed at the buns and asked:
"Miss, are these snacks delicious?"
Guo Xiang nodded, put the buns back on the plate, raised her chopsticks high, and said loudly and quietly:
"Please send someone to tell my parents that I am fine. Please don't worry about me."
Zhang Qing was stunned and looked at Zen Master Namo's expression with the corner of her eyes. Seeing that he was unmoved, she kept saying:
"well--"
Guo Xiang pointed to the steamed buns on the plate and said loudly:
"This bald donkey can't understand what we are saying, but his martial arts skills are unpredictable. We are no match for him. Uncle, don't act rashly. You can ask someone to get some good steamed buns."
Zhang Qing nodded and said repeatedly:
"well--"
Then he turned around and bowed to Zen Master Namo, retreated to the door, opened the curtain, and shouted:
"More steamed buns -"
After speaking, he waved his hand to signal the people outside to leave. Guo Xiang was shocked when she heard the sound of the weapon being put away. Fortunately, Zhang Qing was not reckless, otherwise many brothers in Qingfeng Village would have been injured.
The waiter held a plate of steaming steamed buns and shouted:
"Come on, steamed buns——"
Zhang Qing took the steamed bun, placed it in front of Zen Master Namo, cupped his hands and said:
"Slow use!"
After finishing the instructions, he lifted the curtain and walked outside to the next box. Zhang Qing's loud greeting came from the next door, and Zhang Qing said in the middle:
"Our store is free today. After everyone has used it, please leave as soon as possible. I will apologize to you another day."
When the diners heard this, although they were confused, they still cheered loudly and left the inn one after another.
Guo Xiang was secretly frightened, but Zhang Qing still wanted to take action. She stood up, patted her belly, and said to Zen Master Namo:
"Hey, that dead monk, I'm full."
But Zen Master Namo motioned him to sit down, slowly picked up a steamed bun and started to eat it.
The waiter brought another pot of tea, filled Guo Xiang with the leftover tea in the old teapot, and then filled the new tea to Zen Master Namo. He left the teapot on the table, glanced at Guo Xiang, and pressed the pot with his left hand. Gai, with a thumbs up, bowed and exited.
Guo Xiang took a sip of the tea in the cup. When she saw Zen Master Namo drinking all the tea in one gulp, she hurriedly poured it for him and filled up the tea cup in front of her.
Guo Xiang suddenly smelled a faint fragrance and hurriedly held her breath. Her eyelids seemed heavy. She vaguely heard someone shouting:
"That's right, that's right."
As expected, Zen Master Namo fell down on the table.
At this time, four strong men came in wearing strong clothes and their faces were wrapped in black cloth, with only a pair of eyes exposed. Two of them helped Guo Xiang up, and the other two picked up a thick rope and tied up Zen Master Namo Wuhuada. Take it to the lobby. Zhang Qing walked over with a smile and tapped a few of Zen Master Namo's acupuncture points.
Zen Master Namo was in pain and shook his head. When he opened his eyes, he saw that he was being caught. He was furious. He twisted his body and struggled hard. The huge rope tied to his body was cut off inch by inch, and his two hands were freed. The man was shocked by the internal force, flew to one side, hit the wall heavily, tilted his head, and died on the spot.
Zhang Qing was horrified and retreated. Zen Master Namo waved his right hand in the air. Zhang Qing's huge body was thrown out like a kite with broken strings, and fell to the street, with a mouthful of blood spurting out.
Zen Master Namo walked quickly to the pool, scooped up a ladle of water, poured it on his head, and wiped it on his face. He scooped up another ladle and poured it down on his head. He saw two people supporting Guo Xiang rushing up the stairs. They grabbed Guo Xiang in the air and snatched her away. The two men were struck back by internal forces, unsteady on their feet, and rolled down the stairs.
Zen Master Namo picked up Guo Xiang, jumped out of the window, and flew south. Zhang Qing watched helplessly as Zen Master Namo escaped, and his whole body was burned. She hurriedly came up to help him. Zhang Qing pushed hard and shouted:
"Go quickly——, go to Xiangyang quickly and report to Daxia Guo that the second lady was captured by the monk in red and taken to the south!"
After finishing speaking, he passed away, his eyes widened, and his right hand pointed south.
It's exactly this: high ambition, pride and loyalty are important, and life and death are neglected to reward close friends. To know the results, please see the breakdown next time.
