Yang Zhi stood there and dug around, but he couldn't find any money. He was escorting Hua Shigang on official business, and he had to be fed by the imperial court. He didn't bring a few taels of silver with him. He escaped all the way after the boat capsized, and he was already penniless. Wen.
He couldn't feel it out, he was suffering from cold sweat, and he was half sober from the wine. The waiter asked: "Master Zhizhi forgot to carry money when he went out?"
Yang Zhi thought to himself that his family was not without savings. All the money was stored in a house in the inner city, so he said shamelessly: "That's true. When the Sa family gets it, I will return it to you, and we will give it to you on credit."
The waiter said: "It is necessary to make the master speak, but the shopkeeper is not here. The master has a lot of food and drink, and the villain can't make the decision."
When Yang Zhi heard this, he couldn't be angry for a moment. There is a saying that eating people is short of mouth and taking people is short of hands. Now that he has eaten and drank enough, he is not as heroic as when he first entered the store.
He said: "How about asking someone to go pick it up at Sui Sa's house?"
The waiter said: "The shopkeeper has something to do today. There are only two people in the store, the waiter and the cook. Without one of them, we can't do business. Now that it's not too late, we have to run the business. Where can I get it?"
Yang Zhi felt depressed in his heart, thinking that this yellow and white thing had stumped the heroic man. He couldn't help but look pitiful for a moment, touched his body again, and said for a moment: "The Sa family has deposited this sword in the shop, waiting for money to redeem it. Remember not to use it." I'm just playing around, and I won't even look at it."
The waiter looked at the knife. Although he didn't know how to use weapons, he had good eyesight. He knew that the knife was more than enough to pay for the meal. However, it was inevitable that Qi Ai would not accept it for such a thing.
Seeing his hesitation, Yang Zhi couldn't help but let out a long sigh and was about to speak again when he heard a sudden movement outside the door: "You seem to have a good mouth and a knife, why do you need to mortgage your meal money?"
When Yang Zhi heard this, he looked over and saw a young man walking through the door. This man was tall, broad-shouldered and round-waisted, holding a whistle stick. He took off his red lacquered bamboo hat as he entered the door, revealing a face that looked like a silver basin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. , a lion's nose and a wide mouth, looking like a hero.
The young man walked up to the table, looked Yang Zhi up and down, and said politely: "This brother invites you. Why is he holding the knife?"
Seeing his arrogance, Yang Zhi couldn't help but return the favor: "I forgot my money when I went out, and the store refused to let me go."
The young man glanced at the waiter and said with a smile: "How much silver can this use? The store is too underestimated."
The waiter argued: "I know why the master of the envoy refuses to let go. It's because the shopkeeper is not here and he doesn't dare to make any arbitrary decisions."
The young man shook his head, took out a large ingot of silver from his body and threw it, saying: "Why is that so? After calculating the money for the food and drinks, we will arrange a table so that I can have a good chat with this brother."
The waiter took Yin Huan and went down happily. Yang Zhi was pulled by the big man to sit down. He was poor and short-minded, so he had no choice but to say: "Yang Zhi is ashamed, I haven't heard the name of a good man."
The young man said: "Brother, you are welcome. I am in Shijin. There is a man named Jiu Wenlong. I heard the waiter address me as the envoy of my brother before, and I also heard my name. I wonder if he works in the front department of the palace?"
Yang Zhi heard this and said, "How did Shi Dalang know?"
Shi Jin said with a smile: "My master Wang Jin, I have heard him talking about the name of Zhi Envoy for a long time. I dare not reveal it until I say Zhi Envoy."
Yang Zhi was surprised and said: "It turned out to be brother Wang Jin's disciple. He fled Tokyo that day. Captain Gao sent many people to arrest him, but to no avail. I was relieved now. I wonder where brother Wang Jin is now?"
Shi Jin shook his head and said: "Master said that he would go to see Mr. Lao Zhongjinglue, but I couldn't find him either."
Yang Zhidao: "Why did Dalang come to Beijing? Don't let Lieutenant Gao know about it, otherwise it will be a disaster."
Shi Jin said: "Master went west to avoid trouble. I have been wandering around in circles for many years but I have never found a decent job. I also wanted to go to my friends in the mountains. But I happened to know that the Liao people came to Tokyo to compete. I thought about my martial arts. If I win, There are some ways to earn a name, so that’s it.”
Yang Zhi said happily: "Da Lang is here!"
Shi Jin said: "What does brother say?"
Yang Zhi then talked about what he heard about the imperial martial arts card. Shi Jin was also overjoyed when he heard this and said: "I have heard for a long time that the master is good at making weapons and sticks. Could it be that he also wants to go up to the stage and beat that Liao dog?"
Hearing this, Yang Zhi brought up sad things, and under the influence of alcohol, he recounted what happened to his family, which made Shi Jin feel sorry for him. At this moment, the waiter served wine and food again, and after the two drank thoroughly, they stayed at Xunjia Inn in the outer city.
Early on the next morning, after Yang Zhi and Shi Jin had finished washing up, Yang Zhi suddenly shouted "Ah!" and even dropped the cakes he had just bought on the ground, and then became even more stunned.
Shi Jin asked hurriedly, and after a while Yang Zhicai looked ashen and said: "I forgot something yesterday. How can I get on the ring to compete now that I am guilty? I'm afraid I will be recognized as soon as I get on, and I will be captured and exiled by my wife."
Shi Jin hurriedly asked: "How about brother?"
Yang Zhi was so confused at the moment that he couldn't come up with any ideas. He just said: "Before going to the ring, you need to go to the two kings to register your name. You can't use a false name. If you use a false name and hide your base, even if you get the imperial name, you can't use it." What's the use of martial arts cards? Let alone join the army!"
Shi Jin wondered: "Is this the arena matter held by the two kings?"
Yang Zhidao: "Exactly. When the time comes, I need to register with the Guards and Military Department and sign a life and death certificate. How can this be faked? From this point of view, God is really going to kill me!"
Shi Jin thought for a while and said: "My brother is good at martial arts and will definitely be able to show off in the ring. It would be a pity not to go. Although I am far away in the rivers and lakes, I have heard the names of the two kings, so I don't know what it is like. "
Yang Zhidao: "I am a hundred times stronger than Gao Qiu!"
Hearing this, Shi Jin smiled and said, "Brother, don't panic. I have a way. You can give it a try."
Yang Zhi came back to his senses and said, "Does Dalang have any clever ideas?"
Yang Zhidao: "Brother, you might as well go to see the two kings, tell him what happened, and then ask for a chance to make amends. I think he will definitely succeed!"
Yang Zhi took a breath and said, "It's good, but how can I see Wang Jia? If I'm careless, I might be forked before I even open my mouth."
Shi Jin said: "This is easy. I heard that the two great kings are good at martial arts, and I see that my brother has a precious sword. I might as well ask to see him in the name of offering the sword. Then as long as he sees the two great kings, it doesn't matter even if he actually offers it. In this way, he can make meritorious deeds and make a leap of faith." Longmen is so lucky!"
Yang Zhi was stunned for a moment and said: "What a clever plan, what a great man. If my brother is saved from death, I will never forget your kindness!"
Let's talk about this day, Zhao Tong came to the office early, just because people from all over the world were waiting for their names to be recorded, and they had to test it out. They couldn't just go on stage and challenge them. Even if they were not afraid of death, they couldn't afford to lose this person.
There was a large pavilion outside the office, with eighteen kinds of weapons on display, as well as stone locks, millstones, etc. On that side, several holes were responsible for making records. On this side, Xu Ning led people to review, and the embroidered pillows were blasted away, like fists and kicks. Also to persuade people to leave, only real means can be considered as passing this level.
Zhao Tong was drinking tea on a chair in the hall, while Su Shi stood by to wait on him. Suddenly, soldiers from outside came to report that someone had come to offer a sword.
When Zhao Tong heard this, his expression changed and he offered his sword. What kind of sword did he offer? Tu Qiong saw the dagger, or Meng De offered the knife?
He said coldly: "Tie this guy up and come see him!"
