"Okay, okay! Stop talking about tea leaves! Quickly tell me what the man you met by the river said? Why did the water recede so suddenly?"
The other old men under the willow tree are obviously accustomed to the mutual discord between these two old enemies!
Seeing that the two men were about to brag and stare at the cow again, they all started to urge them impatiently.
"snort!"
When Old Man Li saw everyone trying to persuade him, he just gave up. After snorting coldly, he continued to drawl his voice mysteriously: "Do you know... Xiao Hou?"
"Xiao Hou?" Several other old men frowned when they heard this. After a while, one of them asked tentatively: "Which Xiao Hou is it?"
"Which one else? How many Xiaohou are there in our Tang Dynasty!"
When Old Man Li saw this, he stared, pointed at the location of Luoyang City, and whispered: "Who else can there be besides that person?"
"That one!" When the old men heard this, they immediately took a breath: "Hiss... you are talking about the one who used the divine thunder under Luoyang City to block Wang Shichong's 100,000 troops from leaving the city? Could it be that this time? Too……"
"Nonsense! Didn't you hear the thunder and thunder on the ground a few days ago? When I said it was thunder, someone said that there was something wrong with the old man's ears. Hey, I don't know who had donkey hair in his ears! "
Old Man Li proudly showed off his exclusive information, especially at the end, when he glanced at Old Man Liu opposite him, his eyes full of provocation.
"You..." Old Man Liu, who was already holding his breath, was stimulated by the provocative look and became furious. He was about to jump up, but was dragged down by others.
"You mean, that drought thunder was caused by Xiao Hou again?" He hurriedly grabbed Old Man Liu to prevent him from interrupting Old Man Li. The other old men quickly took the opportunity to ask.
"Nonsense!" Old Man Li rolled his eyes and stretched out his arms to gesture in the air: "Or do you think that the ice wall can kindly open a gap on its own! Don't forget, the wall is so thick! Even a big ship can hit it. Nothing happened!"
"That's right! It sounds like this! But why haven't we heard of this?"
"This... this is not Xiaohou's noble character! He doesn't care about these false reputations! But I heard what my nephew said! After doing all this, he left in a hurry! There were so many people on the shore at that time, and they were stunned. People saw where they went! Even he just saw a steaming cloud!"
"Hiss... so powerful? Look, this is the real immortal! Much more powerful than the monks in the temple on the mountain!"
"Bah! You are really good at comparing things. Those fat monks are all obsessed with money! It costs money to burn incense, to worship Buddha, and even to recite sutras! They still call it worshiping gods. Buddha? He is clearly using the name of gods and Buddhas to defraud money!"
"Yes, yes! I heard that there was a flood this time. I counted them running as fast as they could, and they didn't even want the temple! I didn't know their temple was so high, so what are they afraid of!"
"What are you afraid of? You're afraid that you won't be able to make money! If it weren't for Xiao Hou, once the flood passes, even if their mountains are not flooded, they will become a lonely island. Do you want those monks to stay on the island and fish every day?"
These people at the entrance of the village are all elderly, and once they start talking, they can't stop the car!
And just when a few people were chatting with each other, no one noticed that on the road in the distance, there was a large team slowly walking towards here.
——————————————
"Master, is Fatty really okay? Why do I think he has a severe fever?"
On a carriage in the team, Xiao Han opened the curtain and looked back, then sighed and asked Old Man Hua, who was in the carriage with his eyes closed and concentrating.
There is no doubt that this team is Xiao Han's team.
It is said that after they took action to resolve the crisis in Luoyang that day, they were not like others thought. They just walked away and hid their achievements and fame.
Instead, the group of people followed the main road and moved into Luoyang City, where they made some repairs and waited for Old Man Hua and others who were left behind.
However, because the governor of Luoyang was still in a coma at the time, and most of the other officials were on the banks of the Yellow River and had not returned to the city, Xiao Han did not go out to visit local officials as usual after arriving in Luoyang, so the news about them in the city was unknown. Really not many people know.
As for the concealment of their efforts to relieve the difficulties this time, it was not Xiao Han's responsibility.
But after Dong Xingshu discovered that Xiao Han and the others had quietly left at some unknown time, some of them misunderstood and thought that Xiao Han did not want to be in the limelight, so he took it upon himself to block the news and only let people say that a hole had collapsed in the ice wall. , not a word was said about how this hole came to be!
"Don't worry, he's in great shape! It's nothing serious!"
At this time, Old Man Hua's slightly thin body was bumping up and down with the carriage. After hearing Xiao Han's words, he just raised his eyelids slightly and said these few words lightly.
"It's best if nothing happens!" Seeing what the master said, Xiao Han felt a little relieved. He also leaned in the carriage, looking at the sunlight coming in through the gaps in the curtains and sighed: "Hey, this fat guy usually looks quite strong. How come at the critical moment, even the dog can't compare!"
By the way, after returning from the river that day, the soaked dog warmed himself up by the fire and took a hot bath. After changing his clothes, he immediately seemed like a normal person and was jumping around!
But the fat man who also came back had a fever, convulsions, and talked nonsense! Otherwise, if Old Man Hua comes over in the end, the doctors invited by Xiaodong and the others will start recommending coffin shops!
However, even if Old Man Hua rushed over and prescribed some medicine, the fat man didn't see much improvement and his fever was still severe!
"This is an invasion of external evil spirits. It has nothing to do with whether the body is strong or not!" Old Man Hua rolled his eyes at Xiao Han, as if he was ashamed that he didn't even know this basic medical knowledge. , and then continued:
"Besides, look at Liu Hongji! How much he takes care of his subordinates? He is guarding him in the carriage every day!"
"Liu Hongji? Guard him?"
Xiao Han's face suddenly turned red! The corners of his mouth twitched, looking disgusting as he wanted to laugh but didn't dare!
He had forgotten how relieved he was when he saw Liu Hongji give up riding a horse, take the initiative to move the fat man into his car, and take care of him personally! I even thought that this prodigal son had his conscience discovered!
But now, Xiao Han only had the idea of beating Liu Hongji to death with a hammer!
Nothing but because last night, Xiao Han inspected the camp and accidentally discovered that Liu Hongji wanted to share a room with the fat man for no other reason than for him to hold the fat man like a small stove to keep him warm at night!
