The big rivers and lakes that attack

Chapter 497 Encounter by chance
In the evening of this day, they finally saw people, this is a fairly impressive market town.

"Go to Dingzhou, if the horse runs fast, you can reach... the next city in four hours? There are no cities in the middle, they are all villages and towns, most of the time they are wilderness, and the closest one is Gucheng..."

"You guys are coming from Yingzhou. It's weird. If you don't take a good road, why are you running here?"

In the field, Xiao Chu was asking a question, and the farmer who had just finished harvesting answered with a sickle on his shoulder.

Not far away, Li Dao covered his face, "Wonima, I really went the wrong way, this place is the remnant of the Dalu Mountain, half a month wasted in vain.

After Xiao Chu finished asking, he turned around and came back, went to the carriage, and told Li Dao these things.

The farmer was about to leave when Zhu Dan stopped him and asked, "I want to ask you something."

While speaking, he handed the other party a sentence.

"You're welcome, aren't you?"

The old farmer saw it, took it quickly, and said with a smile, "What does this old man want to ask?"

Zhu Dan's expression froze immediately, he was called "brother" by a five or sixty-year-old farmer.

But I also endured it.

He took a long breath and said, "Which house in this town has the largest house? My benefactor has a noble status and cannot suffer. I want to borrow a comfortable place to live."

"Brother, please show me the way, and don't worry, the lodging is rich, and his family will definitely be lost. You can get a good deal, brother."

The old farmer looked him up and down, and murmured, "Why do these words sound so familiar?"

Then he didn't care about it, and then said: "The largest house in this town is the Zhou family in the east of the town. His family has a house with three entrances. The town has the most fields and is very rich."

"However, a group of people came yesterday. I don't know their origins. In short, they were very prestigious. They borrowed his house to live. I saw that young master vomited blood."

"I didn't dare to ask... Anyway, the Zhou family's house was taken by them. You are only a few people, so you must not be able to compete with them."

"Besides Zhou's family, there is another rich family in the town, namely Luan's family. His family is not as rich as Zhou's family, but he also has a second-in-law yard..."

Come on, the old farmer left satisfied after getting Zhu Dan's second sentence.

Zhu Dan came to Li Dao with some distress: "I originally thought about cooking some delicious food for the boss benefactor, but never thought that the richest house would be taken over by someone."

Jiang Wan snorted and said nonchalantly, "It's enough to drive them away, it's a small sect."

Xiao Chu nodded vigorously and said, "Let them know what chivalry is."

Li Dao smiled helplessly: "It's not necessary, why bother to offend others? The most important thing in traveling the rivers and lakes is to make friends. As the saying goes, there are many friends and many paths. If you have no grievances or enmities with others, why bother? Harmony makes money."

"We're just passing by, and we don't need to interact with them. It's just causing trouble. It's good that the well water doesn't interfere with the river water. It's good to go to Luan's house for a night. Give us enough money. Boss, I'm not short of money..."

After hearing this, the three of them didn't say much, and drove the carriage into the town.

……

The town is called Shuiwan Town, with about two hundred families.

Zhou's house, the owner has already gone to another place and dare not stay here.

In a certain main room, more than a dozen doctors and nurses came in and out, bringing out a basin of bloody water from time to time.

An old servant was running around in a hurry outside the house, grabbed a doctor who had just come out, and asked, "How is Qi Shao?"

The doctor panicked and said: "Seventh Young Master... Seventh Young Master, his heart and lungs were cut open. There is no hope for a doctor. It is a miracle that he can live until now. I... We are doing our best... But, Lord Fu, we have to Prepare for the worst..."

The old servant let go of his hand in a daze, not knowing what to do in a daze, after a long time, he howled miserably: "Eldest Young Master, Seventh Young Master has not grown up yet, you just threw him here like this ?"

"Old slave... I am ashamed of this old slave. I failed to protect Seventh Young Master and was plotted against...Old slave, go with Seventh Young Master!"

The words fell, and slowly drew out the long knife at his waist, ready to put it on his neck.

A hand suddenly appeared, holding down the blade.

A young man came out from the house, his face was pale, his appearance was ordinary, there was a simple and honest smile on his pale face, and the skirt of his chest was stained red with blood.

"Fu... Uncle Fu... I haven't died yet. Why are you burying yourself? No matter what, you have to wait until after I die, don't you? Also, although I'm seriously injured, I think I'm sure I can’t die, I’ve always had a lot of life.”

The old servant was stunned, his eyes were moist.

"Cough!" The young man coughed heavily, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I feel fine now. I just took the medicine and the wound has been healed. Let's go, let's go to town Let's go and see if there are any pretty girls."

"Master..."

……

Three carriages were driving on the not-so-spacious streets of the market town, surrounded by salesmen's shouts one after another, and a few shops.

An old servant followed his young master. The young master looked around and happened to pass by the carriage team.

At this moment, Xiao Chu inadvertently glanced to the side in the carriage ahead, but only glanced briefly, and didn't pay much attention.

But after a while, she came to her senses, looked over there again, took one look, then another, and then exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Seven?"

On the other side, the young man who was shopping with the old servant heard the voice a little familiar, and couldn't help turning his eyes, frowning, and looked suspiciously at the round-faced girl in the carriage who was dressed in extraordinary clothes.

It felt like I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember it for a while, so I didn't speak rashly.

Xiao Chu hurriedly jumped off the carriage, ran over happily and said, "Brother Seven, it's me, Ye Yuchen!"

The young man stared wide-eyed, looked carefully for a while, and said in disbelief: "Xiao Chu? You are Xiao Chu!?"

Seeing him like this, Xiao Chu couldn't help being a little unhappy and said: "It's me, why did you forget me when Brother Seven is only a little over a year old?"

This young man is naturally Hong Ansheng, the seventh son of the sixth house of the Mingtang.Followed by him is the old servant of the Hong family, Hong Youfu.

At this time when the old man met, he couldn't help but be very happy, he laughed and patted Xiao Chu's shoulder, probably pulling the wound, frowned in some pain, then recovered his smile, and said:

"It's really because you have changed so much. You used to be thin and weak, and your body was thin, but now your whole face is rounded, and you have grown a lot taller."

"In addition to your rich and noble attire, I really didn't recognize you for a while. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Only then did Xiao Chu regain his cheerful appearance, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

The two asked the same question at the same time, and then both couldn't help laughing at each other.
