Seeing that Chang Siguo's black robe had dozens of holes on the back, exposing his skin, and that the robe was too tattered to be worn anymore, Wu Jun announced that the motorcade would postpone its departure and asked Chang Siguo to take the beggar-like little guy to the street shop in front to buy clothes. Robe, shoes and socks.
In the middle of winter, the little guy was barefoot and wearing a pair of broken straw sandals. His hands and feet were covered in red, swollen and frostbite. He looked really pitiful.
Furthermore, Chang Siguo returned to the team, which made Wu Jun feel reassured.
There was only half a day left to go to Fucheng, and he was happy to buy a favor for Chang Siguo.
Chang Siguo took Captain Wu aside and whispered about the situation on Qiancui Peak, saying that there were still captive women in the bandit's den.
Wu Jun listened to his words and promised to go to the city's familiar yamen to handle the matter. He raided the bandit's nest and gained rich profits. In addition, the heads of those mountain bandits were also a big contribution.
Chang thought that he had nothing to do, so he simply put all the black wooden bows and captured long knives on the carriage, put the bronze bow in the bow bag, and walked in this quite prosperous city with his hands empty and foam. Stroll around the streets of Juncheng.
I heard An Xuelun say many times that when spring comes, I will invite him to Xiongbeicheng to drink flower wine.
After walking less than ten feet, the little guy stared at the steamed bun shop on the roadside. The big steamed meat buns were steaming in cages. He smelled the aroma of sauced meat. Wu Mo swallowed hard and couldn't move, and his stomach growled unsatisfactorily. Call.
Chang Siguo tilted his head and asked, "Want to eat?"
Wu Mo wanted to say if he was hungry, but his stomach growled even louder, so he could only nod his head and take a careful look at Chang Siguo's face.
"Go buy it, you don't have money," Chang Siguo scolded with a smile.
The little guy immediately beamed and ran to the bun shop. Before the waiter could say anything to drive him away, he took out his wallet, took out a circle of copper coins, and asked softly, "How do you sell these buns?"
Occasionally we eat steamed buns on the mountain, but the little guy can at most sniff the smell, and he has no share.
The waiter covered his nose with his left hand and glanced at the black-faced man wearing tattered robes but with outstanding temperament on the street. Then he stretched out a finger and gestured "One penny, how many do you want?" and picked up a dried lotus leaf from the counter.
"Here comes eight. Five and three will be packed separately."
Wu Mo carefully untied the rope, counted eight copper coins, put the copper coins on the counter with his feet, then tied the string around the copper coins tightly, put it into the purse and put it in his arms. He used his hands to separate the coins without worry. Pressed.
He carefully took the lotus leaf bag, ran to Chang Siguo with his arms in his arms, and handed the largest bag to Chang Siguo.
Chang Siguo was not polite. He took the hot lotus leaf bun, unwrapped it and took a bite. His mouth was full of oil, and the delicious flavor of the sauce meat stirred up in his mouth. He praised it "delicious"
Wu Mo quickly untied the lotus leaves and took a bite of the meat bun. He almost swallowed his tongue. It was so delicious.
He quietly turned his back, wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and then ate the steamed buns happily.
“It’s so delicious”
Thin and childish echoes.
On the cold street, the rising sun stretched out two figures.
When he walked to the clothing store and finished eating the buns in the lotus leaves, Wu Mo reluctantly threw away the withered lotus leaves soaked in grease, wiped his dirty hands stained with oil over and over again on his old coat, and then Following Chang Siguo, we walked into a shop with a faint floral scent.
He is curious about everything and cannot see clearly with his eyes. The clothes in the shop are so dazzlingly beautiful that they are dazzling.
"Sir, you"
Chang thought that there was no hobby that was so boring that he had to wait for people to dislike him before slapping him in the face. He took out his money bag, poured a handful of broken silver into his palm, slapped it on the small wooden table in the middle, and said, "Use this money to buy me a set." Wear a black cotton robe, both inside and outside. Help him change into something that fits him from top to bottom, inside and out. Cotton shoes, footbags, cotton robes, and cotton trousers should be in a lighter color."
"Please wait a moment."
For the sake of money, the shopkeeper quickly put on a smile and asked another waiter to take Wu Mo aside and wash his dirty face and hands with soap and warm water so that he could try on clothes.
It took me three basins of warm water to see that it was clear.
Just after washing, the little guy raised his sleeves and wiped it on his face. Well, he became a tabby cat again.
"Forget it, leave him alone, measure the size and give him clothes, shoes and hats of the right size."
Chang Siguo walked out of the small room with a new look, wearing a brand-new cotton robe, and told the waiter that the little guy had some bad habits, and he had to change them slowly, not in a hurry.
The clerk half-pinched his nose and quickly measured all the dimensions for Wu Mo.
Another guy found the necessary clothes, shoes, and a small dog fur hat.
The little guy followed the waiter into the inner room, and then kicked the waiter out. He didn't need anyone to help him change. After a while, he came out again and had changed into a child's robe with dark blue dark patterns and a plush melon cap. He doesn't smell that much, he looks very energetic, and his dirty face smiles as happily as peonies.
Chang Siguo looked at the pretty little guy who was holding a money bag in his right hand and a short sword scabbard in his left hand, spinning around in circles. He nodded and said, "Okay, that's it."
The shopkeeper quickly calculated the cost, found two broken pieces of silver, and quickly sent the two away.
Fortunately, it was early in the morning and there were no distinguished guests in the shop, so business was not delayed.
"Put your change away and go."
Chang Si waved his hand and walked out of the shop. How could he not see the faint looks of disgust from top to bottom in the shop.
Wu Mopidianpidian put the broken silver into his purse, put the purse in place, hung the short knife on his waist, and ran out, walking all the way, jumping and circling backwards, showing off his new clothes and warm cotton shoes that fit his feet. , like a happy deer.
Returning to the Dianke Office, Wu Jun announced that he was setting off. The sun was already high and there could be no further delay.
The group escorted the carriage out of the north city gate to avoid the crowds in the outer city and made a circuit around Shangguan Road, heading south.
Xiong Molin was still in the lead, running ahead to clear the way.
Chang Si sat in front of Wu Mo, who put down his dog-skin hat and covered his whole face except for his pair of black eyes. He and Wu Jun fell behind the convoy, and only then did they have time to inquire about what happened after he left last night. fighting.
"Hey, it's tragic."
Wu Jun sighed, and with his good right hand holding the reins, he pointed at the two cavalrymen in front and the three soldiers driving the carriage, and said solemnly, "Except for a few of them, the bodies of all the compatriots who died in the battle have been Please ask our friends in Xiongbei City to send soldiers to escort them back to Sihuang City. The three carriages in front are all newly replaced in Xiongbei City. Alas, those girls are so good at archery."
Chang Siguo silently said in his mind, that girl's swordsmanship is even more powerful.
"I injured my left hand at that time and my strength was greatly reduced. I and Brother Xiong worked together to resist the woman's arrows. After a long struggle, the woman turned and shot the cavalry guarding the carriage. Before I ordered the cavalry to disperse and run away, There were heavy casualties.”
"The woman rushed to the vicinity of the broken carriage. She found that the medicinal materials contained in the carriage were ordinary goods, not rare elixirs for spiritual practice, so she split open the other two carriages. After checking, she became angry and killed him with another burst of arrows. Ma Du suffered a disaster, perhaps because she was worried about the barbaric tiger. The stinky woman lost her temper, and when she saw that she couldn't stand the joint protection of me and Brother Xiong, she took advantage of the situation and left."
Chang Siguo touched a few pieces of common medicinal materials in his pocket and did not ask where the precious goods to be protected in this mission were.
Perhaps their mission was just a cover to hide the truth from others.
Or perhaps, Wu Jun is carrying precious items on his person, and it is useless to ask.
The rest of the journey was uneventful. We bypassed Bei'an City on the way, ate some dry food on the way, fed our horses, rested for a while, and continued on our way.
As we approached Beifengcheng, the capital of Mingzhou, there were more caravans, merchants and porters on the official road.
Every ten miles, there are wooden pavilions for pedestrians to rest and take shelter from the rain. The roads are wide and smooth.
When the north gate of Beifeng City was in sight, a huge cavalry group came from behind. Far away, someone could be heard cracking a whip and shouting at the caravans on the road ahead: "Avoid them all, avoid them all, it won't be long." Anyone with eyes will be hit and killed."
Wu Jun frowned and looked back, seeing pedestrians panicking and getting out of the way. Several of the cavalry running in front were all body-training warriors wearing uniform crimson uniforms. They were very eye-catching, so he decisively ordered the carriage to get out of the way. Don't do this to cause trouble.
Dozens of cavalry escorted two carriages gorgeously decorated with silk and satin, whizzing by.
The billowing dust filled the air, causing pedestrians hiding on both sides of the road to cover their mouths and noses, muttering curses in a low voice.
Chang Siguo's ears and eyes were sharp, and after listening for a long time, he realized that he was the son of General Yan, the city guard of Fucheng. He went on an outdoor trip and returned to the city to create a pomp and glance at Wu Jun beside him.
Wu Jun also happened to look at it, and both of them saw helplessness from the depths of each other's eyes, looking at each other and shaking their heads.
The soldiers at the front worked hard to protect these arrogant and domineering bastards who regarded the people as nothing but grass.
It’s not worth it for the soldiers who shed blood and lost their lives. ,,,
